I didn't have pry so I used snoop. It's always awkward going into someone else's room, but doubly so when they're in a drunken, dissociative fugue. #WIPSnips

I didn't have unfazed so I used unbothered. Money isn't always everything in occluded London. #WIPSnips

I didn't have divine so I used Heaven. Haggling never works, at least, not for Grace. #WIPSnips

Living in a cursed family means waiting to die, but Grace isn't about to wait on the inevitable. #WIPSnips

As seen at Tesco in Derry. I swear I haven't seen raisin Shredded Wheat in over 35 years.

I didn't have acquire so I used purchase. As strange as this might seem, these are actually Chekov's lemon drop sweets. #WIPSnips

I didn't have rush so I used ran. It's always handy to have a friend who can patch you up after you've been shot. #WIPSnips

I didn't have coach so I used carriage. Welcome to London. Why bother walking when you can take a cab? #WIPSnips

I didn't have phase so I used time. The flight of the Freemasons has left a power vacuum in occluded London, and how that will shake out is anyone's guess. #WIPSnips

Just how hard is it to find an expert in curses in occluded London? #WIPSnips

It's only Devilry if it comes from the Infernal region, otherwise it's just sparkling occultism. #WIPSnips

I didn't have substitute, so I used alternative. As with many other things, you get a free pass defying the Devilry laws if you say you're Christian. #WIPSnips

It makes me think of this:

What's a little attempted robbery between eventual friends? #WIPSnips

I didn't have humid so I used hot. In which Grace fails to show grace under pressure, but to be fair, her reasons are sound. #WIPSnips

Nothing beats getting called into work when you were up half the night and aren't well. #WIPSnips

I didn't have anything remotely near stadium, so I used area. How do you eliminate a curse when you don't know the origin or if it even truly is a curse? #WIPSnips

I didn't have bench so I used chair. Out of all the occultists and arcane professionals of occluded London, surely someone must understand generational curses? #WIPSnips

The morning after the fire, it turns out that Kat does have nine lives. #WIPSnips

Time for a bit of light breaking and entering. #WIPSnips

Just when you expect to find Kat in bed nursing a miserable hangover...she's not. #WIPSnips

The news using AI for the article photo rather than just using a stock image of a kitchen tap.

I didn't have scarf so I used coat. We are all of us animals, in the end. #WIPSnips

I'm trying to think of something that shits like it. Mice?

Date yourself with a snap of your first ever computer.

The closest I had to tournament was match. Time for a spot of tea and conversational warfare with Madame Séraphine Chauvinard, master occultist. #WIPSnips

Here it is:

Here is my favourite graffiti. It was up for years in Derry and then someone sprayed over it, so they've replaced it with a full-colour mural of a smiling sun and the motto.

It's a long, miserable walk home from the pub in a storm when you don't have an umbrella. #WIPSnips

I didn't have sensational, so I used wonderful. When your life is caring for others, sometimes simply enjoying a moment's peace feels like a sin. #WIPSnips
