[M]om - Last Hurrah [TEXT][Cancelled]

Ayy I'm deciding to drop [M]. I liked doing this while it lasted (I had plans for the next update, settling into a stable rhythm and way the narrative goes), I'm not feeling it anymore.
I still love the characters and it was fun to work on building stuff, but I've got a long list of things I want to make happen and it's no longer fun to think about getting stuff done for this. Still chuckling at all the times I said "ok this time I'm gonna manage my spoons and moods and make this happen regularly" tbh

------------
And since I'm ending this I'm dunking a breakdown of this I guess.

-b52 = 6
-Freyav572 = 6

storesShow

if you want to look at stores I posted feel free to go back to page two, but otherwise there's not much to say other than that I loved coming up with names.
The following were stores that were going to be available once the internet connection was upgraded :V

+BRANDNEWCAR
sells new ships, vehicles, and upgrades. customs can be commissioned via contract.
+WageSlaves4U.dark
A supposed 'darknet' site that specializes in slavery. While cheap delivery dates take a while unless it's a true budget purchase or upgraded shipping. Founded by a rogue T and X class pair that wanted to see if they could truly optimize the slavetrade.
+Amazonia
sells everything. costs may be too much or very cheap, quality varies. shipping is unpredictable unless you pay a subscription, which is expensive and charges your personal account yearly.
+PraiseHelix.org
Helixian website selling both their cultural goods and capture creatures.
+GreeksAndSundry
Sells Greek AIs. New and old.
+WalkLikeAnEgyptian
Sells Egyptian AIs.
+Norse.co
Sells norse AIs (v10+)
+LesserKey
Goetian contracting services.

shipment featureShow

so one of the features I was getting around to exploring was the idea of shipments. How do M villages get their supplies. By the notail government of course. But since M classes have the power they do and experiment, why not see if better resource shipments work better. So yeah it was gonna be just choosing what items you get each week/month/whatever. Again, I liked making names. Anyone is welcome anytime to ask me for naming ideas because it's something I have a bit of fun with at the least.

Shipments
The shipment system allows various weekly shipments.
1 free shipment choice, and any additional will be a Service.

does it ever end? we're nearly done tho. services are like stores or shipments, but as a subscription service. you know those monthly subscription boxes? this is like that but fortuna. The names were fun. I fully expected the village to go broke and need to sell shoes for points.

Edesia managed to pick up a rare item (pheremone case) that was attracting bosses and fauna, causing daily luck rolls. This got annoying for me to roll on a "watch the days pass by" format.

aside from that? that's all my notes I think. This went a lot further than I'm used to seeing textventures go, or my interactive projects go. Thanks to everyone who read, submitted commands, and all the support (shoutout to Lammar for that Ewedice fanart 10/10 superb you funky little sheepbot)

I don't want to hype up future projects bc I'm usually a mess, but I want to say I'll do other text/forumventures at some point, and who knows what else from the heap of projects lol
