Uncovering Secrets
When I came back from my day long trip to Ireland, my mom was understandably upset with me skipping school. I was always a bad liar and my mother a good detector, so I didn't even try lying, just explaining everything that happened. Surprisingly she believed me and I was able to vent a bit about my feelings. How I felt like I could never achieve something of greatness, always being bound to ordinarity. How it seemed no matter how hard I tried, I never really improved from my starting ability.
Then she opened up. Apparently she and my dad were part of some sort of cult before I was born. Participated in some rituals for the well-being of the child. When my father died, she left. She was never sure if any of the rituals really worked, but she did notice that I was remarkably healthy and had little problems with starting things. Afterwards she went into the attic and out of an old shoebox she handed me a magical necklace from the cult.
I'll try to get more info on the cult, what they're doing right now, if I can somehow find a way to go and break ordinarity. Getting an internship/job at the British Museum would also help with that both info about the cult and other ways to circumvent such things.
Also when she pulled out the necklace, I almost broke mentally. Probably some sort of aftereffect from the mission, so mom helped me get some psychological help with that.

Internship acquired
So after the last contract I basically had no choice but to tell my mom what happened, a burn scar that big is hard to cover up. She was understandably upset, but said she would not stop me if that's what I desire. She'll look into some way to maybe get our insurance to cover a plastic surgery.
On a happier note: I managed to score an interview with the British Museum. And actually managed to get the internship after a few questions from the older fellow (who gifted me some werebear blood). A bit of help here and there and working with the 2 I met already (Dr. Rivermore and Robert Millhouse from last time) and a bit of working with the rest of the task force and in exchange they let me use their resources, both knowledge and actual artifacts they acquired over the last few hundred years (only as a loan of course). I think with school ending soon, I'll try to take over the job full time from then. But for now I gotta make the best out of my situation, I can feel that I'm getting closer to my goal.

Gen-Wyld: Beyond Natural
On March 14, 2018, a little-known company named Gen-Wyld announced FDA approval for a groundbreaking procedure to enhance a patient’s primary and secondary sexual characteristics using gene therapy. The company was an overnight success.
Shortly thereafter, they introduced a suite of gene-altering body modification procedures that allowed patients to make dramatic aesthetic changes to their bodies by gene-splicing “non-human” anatomy. Those daring (and wealthy) enough can now add cuttlefish pigmentation to their skin, sport a pair of fox ears, and even add a functional tail. While rare, these so-called “modders” draw plenty of hate from conservative communities.
Thanks to their revolutionary procedures, Gen-Wyld is now a household name. Norman Carlson, Gen-Wyld’s chief evangelist, recently announced the company is in the trial phase for a groundbreaking treatment for diabetes.
Yet despite their success, a shroud of secrecy surrounds Gen-Wyld. Their no-patent policy obscures the secrets of their procedures from the public eye. Financial experts claim that Gen-Wyld is run less like a traditional business and more like an NGO with some specific, unknown objective.
Some claim that they will not stop until humanity has been reduced to monstrous slaves and that Gen-Wyld’s board of directors will install themselves as inhuman overlords of the new world order.
However, until the true secrets behind Gen-Wyld are discovered, the genetic biotech firm will continue to grow, develop, and progress its grand designs.
