July Blog Update 26'

Hello y'all readers. I was rather quiet lately. After I finished my campaign of Troika! x Barkeep on the Borderlands I was a player in a few one-shot adventures in Cy_Borg of one of the other players in the group.

Slush Pile - Barkeep, Troika, Procedures, Adventures

Gay Beholder Blog Fiesta - to spite the bigots!
