This Week In Survival

If you like me have been out looking for Nessie among the evil cryptid-napping Magnetic Islanders or possibly trying to find the end of a rainbow, you may have missed some vital supernatural tips and tales unfolding here on the pages of SOS as survivors around the world check in with their personal survival updates and messages.

Luckily, once a week I try wherever I am to ologize all these messages and catch us up with links and summaries below for This Week In Survival. Please stay tuned while I do that now…

This Week in Survival Under Construction for the next 19 hours…

Be No Longer Terrorized…

–>> This message brought to you by er, HECATE. Can you really trust a Demon Queen? I think she was acting on Eris’ provocation here. What is Agent RB saying to her and what has she done with ERIS aka she who just wanted to twerk? I’ll try to link these threads shortly… or did it have something to do with…

Entropy Curses

–>> Can explain so much. Thanks to LILITH for that diagnosis not to mention a sparkly flaming chicken cure. Which sounds both effective and delicious. But if she thought Hecate could lift the curse I bet she regrets asking now.

Cupid Trap or Thrall Slaves?

–>>Watch out for vampires throwing around the thrall.  I’m not pointing fingers but whenever things heat up around here there’s almost always a vampire involved. And 99.98% of the time it leads to trouble. Yes I’m looking at you A.P. and AKANTHA…

Thanks to the Cheshire Cat for trying to contain that situation but I fear it’s too late. Has A.P. finally met his match? But who is thralling whoooom?  There’s always an end game with the vampires. Maybe Cupids are actually the cure for this situation. Hmmmm….

The Charlie Sheen Debate

–>> Did Charlie Sheen need Nessie blood for his swinging warlock ways? It’s REAPER vs. URBAN SQUATCH Who do you believe?

 ♆ Demigods Descending ♆

–>> Still seeking Camp Halfblood. It moves around and okay yeah I can see how publishing the exact location is not practicing the best security but thanks to everyone helping out demigod DoP, including JACK and FENRIR. Pile on if you please.

–>>Incidentally demigod JACK still waiting for his sword. A demigod fighting with a stick? Yeesh. I mean, I know they disguise their weapons as everyday objects but when the weapon IS an everyday object, it’s hard times for a halfling. Anyone with a 20 on SCARLET please send report, confirmed or unconfirmed.

Security Tip to Check For Networks:

–>>This tip from The Hatter in my email this week definitely worth sharing. Be sure and check your network settings regularly throughout the day for any suspicious networks in your area. Warning signs include acronyms like FBI, A51 and MOM in the network name. 

(SOS is fine though, really it is.)

Daywalker Rings

–>> Two requests in my email this week. Should I still send them to MR. JAFFA? Or is anyone else out there providing reliable TESTED daywalker rings? Please reply below.

I’m on the trail of a certain Greek goddess named Hebe and her fountain of youth chalice so I can refill my Bonk bounty before it runs out – thanks to ALEX for helping me get through This Week In Survival with a very lovely lid.

And thanks to everyone else who keeps on keeping on with me. I certainly never expected to survive to 2014, swimming in this supernatural soup and I know that I couldn’t have done it without you.

So without further ado, let’s see who you are this week. I’ll post some links below. Hope you’ll follow them and wade in wherever you can….

Pando Aspen Root Anyone? 

–>> Well if I can’t locate Hebe – or whatever she calls herself these days  – maybe I can find some of that Pando-Aspen Root FENRIR is talking about here. Those trees really know how to survive. Hey wait a minute. Maybe that’s a clue. Did Hebe lose her chalice in this forest? A Greek Goddess hiding in Utah?

What’s In the Suitcase? 

–>> VELANKO and LILITH watching a supernatural suitcase situation in progress. Is there an inter-dimensional border patrol agent in the house?

Fimbulwinter Weather… What? 

–>>  Thought the Dark Year was finally defeated by the combined light of our collective Christmas clangers and Yule logs, to say nothing of the Fireplace channel? Then what’s this about a Fimbulwinter spell FENRIR??  Anyone know a good loophole to get us out of this one?

Wanted: Draconians

–>> If you’re not busy burning Indonesia liberating Baby Agni, MARNEY has a few questions about draconianism…

Still Wanted: Autograph 

–>> Is  REAPER still looking for Horus’ autograph?  Will HATTER finally help REAPER get one from his most famous patient? It doesn’t look to me like his therapy is working. He still seems pretty mad about a few things…

Phantom Wings

–>> RAVEN CLAW has them. Do they show up in photos? Shadows? Mirrors? Let’s try to find out…

Survivor if you’re reading this, a hearty congrats on surviving Krampusnacht. Either you successfully avoided getting your name on the Naughty List this year or you have succeeded in having it removed.

If you haven’t and you’re still on the run, well, good luck. Maybe somebody below can still help you make it through This Week In Survival. After all, they appear to be mostly surviving. Follow the links and  leave a message at the sound of the beep….

Need An Angel? 

–>> Who doesn’t, really in this terrifying holiday season. Maybe you’re still trying to get your name off that Naughty List? MATHEWMEGA is one, after an angel arrived on his couch on St. Krampus Night. Coincidence? I don’t think so. Can he help you with your atonement agenda? Remains to be seen. He could be off on a mission of his own.

–>> If not, can a guardian suffice? HATTER makes his case for the angelic Guardian kind. But just what is he up to here? 

–>> How about a fallen angel? KENJI says never trust an angel or a fallen angel but REAPER disagrees. Let’s see if he has any Reapers Tips ™ about getting your name off the Krampus List?

–>> Was it all too late for somebody on the naughty list?  SCARLETT witnesses a Krampusnacht trial.*Don’t click this link to read Scarlett’s story unless you feel like being scared. No apologies, that’s just kind of her thing.

Who Puts the Missile In The Mistletoe?

–>> A controversial but uncharacteristically hopeful suggestion from FENRIR here to JDT whose town is ahowl with werewolves.  Can it really help her remain human? We’re looking into that. Got any research on the mistletoe you can share?

Zombie Experimenter On The Run Walk:

–>> RUSTY still on the walk from the Zombie Actors’ Guild and probably Zyboragon after ignoring everyone’s advice and experimenting on zombies. Got any advice for him to ignore? Please leave it below.

What If a Whole Town Full of Magic Users Was Out to Make You Happy? 

–>> Should you worry about that? Or stay there forever? Tell KENJI what you think…

White Wolf Sighting

–>> This one might be the freakiest yet. NIGHTSHADE trying to figure it out. *

*A heads up to Nightshade and other werewolves here on SOS, I’ve been told by  my friends at Lupine Life they’re going to be running some kind of contest for werewolf reportage in the new year, so keep taking notes and filing reports for that. And don’t tell them I told you.

Well we’re back with another This Week In Survival – or are we? It’s too soon to tell.

All I know for sure so far is Black Friday came and went, bringing zombies and demons and what appears to be a slate of phobias to its survivors…

Want to know what’s been happening around SOS, who’s surviving and how and why? Me too. Check back here over the next 36 hours or so while I try to figure it out and put up the links.

Thanks to everyone still surviving with SOS. Still keeping on keeping on against all odds and good judgement….

Welcome to Sethslist 

Classifieds for Surviving Supernaturally…

Know a Monster Who Needs Therapy? 

–>>Got a friend or family member in denial of a supernatural condition or monstrosity? Are you a vampire who loves a werewolf? Contact the HATTER, certified Monster Therapist. Follow the link for easy instructions and a quote within 6 business days.

Wanted:

–>>Dragonfly blood and some angel tears (Hmm that’s a tough one. How many?) If you  are an angel who cries or know how to make an angel cry,  please contact SCARLETT LUPA here, asap. *

*I’m not sure about her exact condition yet, but it seems to involve a lot of *cough* coughing* from the effort of following the no real names, ages, or locations rule.

Transformation Time: 

–>> ZERETH new dragon, just grew wings. Now what?? how do you hide those?

Phobia Phight Night: How Powerful Are You?  

–>> The HATTER, M.T. gets into it with VELANKO, FENRIR and KENJI but cleverly doesn’t say what happens to him if he loses his hat…

And what if I find it? Hmmmm….. On a related note, I found a pair of gloves yesterday and I’m still trying to figure out their powers. They have a mysterious symbol on them, a-k. Maybe they were sent by The Glover… speaking of which…

Lost and Found? 

–>> How will you know if a Hatter sends you a powerful HAT?  Did KENJI find one? Ignore this thread and you could be missing out!

–>> On a related note, The SENTINEL has taken his cycle to destroy another realm but ostensibly left his powers with a newcomer named KENJI. Just when I thought the weak were winning…

Meetings and Beatings

–>> This can’t be good. LOKI here and judging by his last name is probably the real deal. Hope he doesn’t find Fenrir.

Cyber Monday Zomborgs

–>> After surviving the snow zombies aka “melties” did the zomborgs finally get RUSTY? A mysterious email has survivors concerned today —>
Been Avoiding the Void for Fear of the Chipmunks? 

–>> Better make sure you know what it is first. The void debates with VELANKO, CHAOS and PERFIDE

–>> And  review ZYBORAGON’S Void Chipmunk fighting tips before you set out. I know, I know. Hardly this week in survival. But still, timeless tips from our favorite metal cyborg dragon. Some say the void chipmunks got to him but I prefer to believe he found Forresst Fenn’s treasure and retired to his island cave.

Ah Halloween! Did you dodge the reaper schools, haunted doll houses and frost wraiths  long enough to stock up on sugery survival rations for you and your family in the dark hours ahead?

If so, then you know that it’s traditional on this day to melt down all your candy into one giant lump – minus the wrappers please werewolves! – and stir in one bottle of multi-vitamins so that when it cools you can store it safely underground until the darkest hour. While we work on that, let’s see who survived the night:

This week in survival under progress… please keep on keeping on as this article is changing all er well SOME of the time, all weekend.

Reapers’ Tips Of The Week

–>> THE REAPER recalls his school days. What should you do at a public event when a school of reapers shows up? Hopefully we’ll find out. And if you haven’t already, check out THE REAPERS Tips about unicorns… very informative. Think you haven’t met a unicorn? Think again!

(Many thanks to the Hatter for sending in that report.)

Supernatural School Systems

–>>With schools for reapers, witches and vampires what kind of school do you attend and what’s it like? KZAZ tells about Contali school. And many thanks to him for this interesting thread, and to SCARLETT for contributing her story.

Anyone Get Pranked? 

–>> Or see the  SCARLETT LUPA‘s prank? What was it anyway? And did she get it on video? Whose cage is she rattling this week?

War on Death Deities in Progress:

–>>How’s FENRIR’s fight against the dark one aka Crohn going anyway? Well put it this way, I woke up from Halloween night with chocolate on my face and no magical powers 🙁

–>> But anyone know anything about this magical incantation?  Graham read it aloud 3 times while he was trying to upload the new Monstrometer and we’re still not sure what it does…

–>> Morrigan and her 300 crows is in the crosshairs. Can VELANKO help the HATTER to defeat her without the help of Fenrir and The Reaper? Why won’t he accept their help anyway? What is he afraid of? Is the key to her defeat with one of her crows?

–>>And is FENRIR calling out Mr. Mutt due to his claim to Morrigana lineage?

Mermishness Under the Microscope: 

–>> Anyone willing to share a location where mermishness can be acquired? Freshwater or salt, either one.  If I only had a sand dollar for everytime that question came up. Where is Pauzzis when you need her? I think she went full mermaid and moved to Atlantis permanently. Can you blame her? I hear Atlantis is awesome. Meanwhile, GINNY is trying to figure it out this week. …Thanks to you Reaper for helping out this one.

Talking Time Travel

–>> Is everybody saving up daylight this weekend? If not, better get at it. Daylight savings time begins this weekend. Put it in a time-safe container, it’ll be there when you really need it. Is the HATTER going to try and steal mine? Or what is this plan he is cooking up with MIRA the scary sword lady? Is this his idea of monster therapy…
