Greetings, HOVO!

⚔️ Alliance Duel Duel

The challenge is underway!

Each day, @NecroMinion and I battle it out in the Alliance Duel.

The catch?

To win the day, Necro has to finish at least 20 places ahead of me.

The overall winner earns the ultimate prize...

🎭 They get to choose the other person's profile picture.

Current Scores

Monday

🦆 Bex – 49th

Tuesday

It's looking... concerning.

I've started practising my "I meant to pick this profile picture" face.

Watch this space...

💌 Ask Auntie Bexy

This week's anonymous letter reads...

Dear Auntie Bexy,

I am sad that the mother of my Blight child won't acknowledge me.

Auntie Bexy replies...

Dear Anonymous,

Blended families are complicated.

My advice? Continue to be present in your child's life, pay your emotional support on time, and remember: being a parent isn't about who spawned the Blight... it's about who turns up when they need feeding.

If that doesn't work...

Maury would probably love this one.

Love,

Auntie Bexy ❤️🦆

Until next time...

Stay ducky. Stay dangerous. And never make a profile picture bet unless you're absolutely certain you'll win. 🦆
