A peach dord. Merriam-Webster link for "dord". Which begs the question as to what the density of a peach is...

Yes, I saw that. I was asking what Mamorian actually meant, because niether "a peach density" nor the alternate explanation of "a small but sharp, persistent pain" make any sense, and while "Danged Ornery Robotic Device" from that one Power Rangers parody cameo team in a Superguy mailing list story I read twenty-some years ago could work, it seems unlikely. Threads of Destiny is fantasy, but not giant robots superhero fantasy as far as I recall from the brief look I took before slapping into my "read someday" queue.

In general, the weird side dishes with which I accompany OEX listings* are taken from the infamous 2012 "Fuds" parody foodie menu perpetrated by three New Yorkers with way too much spare time ("A journey in food-taste from mouth to toilet, covering the expanse of the Greeko-Japo-Pan-American dining experience"). In this specific case, "gristle spray and a peach dord" are the accompaniments to "Triton-based Turms" in the "Ocean Critters" portion of the menu. As to what a peach dord is, or for that matter what turms are (Triton-based or otherwise), if I knew I'd be glad to tell you. Now you know, and knowing is half the Mandatory Educational Content Segment you're hopefully confused on a higher level and about more important things.
* And occasionally others. Like, my description of Silence is NOT Consent as "accidentally dropped in an AU stuttering with a Goldbug possibility" is adapted from the description of "Stanza cotta" under "Sweet Concluders".

(This post was last modified: 03-29-2024, 04:48 PM by Mamorien.
Edit Reason: corrected attribution. Thanks for the catch!
)
I went to see if there were a new Beware of Chicken: Joyous Song of Yellow Rocks chapter, only to discover that it's got another omake.
Kenainath, based on characters and situations created by Casualfarmer, Wrote:Some time back, I was inspired to begin thinking about the 'what if Jin stayed in the Cloudy Sword Sect' timeline, and eventually ended up writing an omake for it.
========================
Xiao Su Ge muses on the writings of the Honored Founders as she wanders the Cloudy Sword Sect, specifically on a tract she recently read regarding care for one's juniors. Absently, she notes that she has entered the section of the Sect meant for Outer Disciples. Her servants trail in her wake, a selection of Inner Disciples who have shown some promise. A ruckus in one of the courtyards of the Outer Disciples draws her attention, and she shifts her course to investigate, mild curiosity causing her to add a little speed to her calm walk. When she arrives at the source of the noise, she finds a heavily wounded, barely conscious Outer Disciple lying on the stone, and then she sees him yanked to his feet by an Inner Disciple. A single blow is delivered, and she hears the Outer Disciple's ribs breaking and his arm shattering. A second blow is launched, but it doesn't land, the fist caught by her open hand.
The action starts here.

It's not by Casualfarmer (although he was inspired to re-write one of the omakes), but it is a good AU story and it's hard to blame someone for being quite as good a writer as Casualfarmer.

I wondered why there were two several versions of the Earth-Crushing Devil Serpent fight. Ah, the risks of posting after midnight (Anya turns into a gremlin).
