Lovely blue flowers
spring revamp into heaven
but hell for host plants

The Mad Frank's Dreams: Post 9 Of Garrotes and Battle Plans

#FanFic #TheApothecaryDiaries
#Wss366 Hinge #MastoPrompt Mend

Mao eyed the garrote in Chue’s hand, then the cell, and finally Chue herself. Mao waited for her companion to explain.

“I’ll strangle the one with a cudgel while you throw the blanket over the other. Hold on to him and don’t let go. Everything #hinges on whether you can keep him busy until I've dealt with the first one. Can you do it?”

Instead of answering, Mao nodded and asked, “How long until they come back, and what if there are more than two?”

“Who knows how the bones will fall, but the moon hasn't turned its face from us yet.”

Mao clicked her tongue at the courtly language but said no more.

With the plan settled, the two waited. Mao held the blanket in her lap while Chue pretended to entertain her with the flags or to #mend the pennants. Each of them listened and watched the door, waiting.

The hours crawled by, and the light that crept through the boarded window dimmed. Mao had slumped, and her face had turned a sick green. Another one of Chue’s candies helped, but Mao’s hands still shook, and her eyes were dull. When Chue felt her forehead, it was hot, and her hair was damp with sweat.

“You should sleep,” Chue said.

Mao shook her head. “If they come, I need to be ready.”

“As you will, but only until there is no light. Then, go to sleep. I'll wake you if I hear anything.”

Mao nodded again. As much as she hated to admit it, sleep was the only reliable remedy for a head injury like hers. She would just have to hope there was no internal bleeding.

The #MastoPrompt for Tuesday 14 April 2026 is:

#mend

The poem or story can include the prompt word or be about the prompt word.

@ me, if you like, or just include the #MastoPrompt tag (to allow people to follow or filter their feeds), or keep your work to yourself - all the options are good as long as you're writing.

If you're including an image please do include alt-text if you’re able to.

Repair time!

The magnetic clasp on my daughter's bag started to tear through, because it was only anchored on one side to a _very_ thin layer of fabric, so it's time for some embarrassingly over-sewed mending!

Arch rolling updates are great until an AUR binary breaks because it’s looking for an old .so version.

I am working on a Zsh helper called #Mend to handle this. It detects the failure, strips the version suffix, and finds the current provider via pacman -F. I'm using native Zsh string splitting to keep it fast.

It’s a personal project that’s grown a bit. Code review and feedback on the logic is welcome.
