Tritychic (pronounced “Try Tie Kick”)

article by @bwabam

Tritychic (three random, pronounced “try tie kick”) = tri (three, pronounced “try”) + tyche (luck, pronounced “tike”) + -ic (adjective, pronounced “ick”)

the following was made by using https://randomwordgenerator.com/ to get 3 random words for each paragraph and using them.

first three words: image, nursery, age

I was on my computer and I saw an ad saying “HAVE YOU SEEN THIS BABY? age: 2, gender: male, last seen: this year. Alive only, five gazillion dollars”, and when I looked at the image, I recognized it. I saw that baby right outside of the nursery five days ago, and he was running after a man.

verdict, athlete, self

The baby was chasing an athlete, and I stopped paying attention at that moment. I looked up at a banner at the nursery saying “self-portrait project”, and then walked on. I imagine this thing in my head sometimes, this thing where there is a jury deciding what I should do. And the verdict was simple: report it.

appearance, control, architect

I was an architect. My boss could control who’s design will be used for any building. The building I was working on was across the street and two doors down from the nursery. But I needed to pay attention to the important thing: the baby’s appearance outside of the nursery.

he, explicit, close

I was then rudely interrupted by loud music from my neighbor. This explicit music that he was playing was about as bad as the noise that the babies hear from the construction near the nursery. I went over to close my door, but it was closed. That music was LOUD.

reputation, elephant, combine

My boss liked to use the elephant in the room expr-oh, come on. The elephant in the room had to be my reputation for being easily distracted. And combine that with THAT LOUD MUSIC!!!

balance, ordinary, investigation.

I liked to balance my work b-okay I started my investigation. No obvious leads. Just an ordinary baby.

appearance, rehearsal, era

But was the athlete? All I could tell when I looked at him was that he had the appearance of an athlete. In this era of technology, I could probably find him. You know, he looked like this kid that went to a play rehearsal but not the actual performance. That was probably not important.

remedy, coffee, afford

I then sipped some of the coffee that I could afford to remedy the hate that I had for my job.

tip, paint, stir

I then started to stir my coffee when I was reminded by my old paint bucket about a tip I had gotten from the nursery.

sustain, feast, quotation

My memory was strong enough to sustain the original quotation as I was making the food for my breakfast feast. “If you need something, come. If you have something to give, come. If you want to help, come. And I will be there”. I was going to go to the nursery to give.

spill, dictionary, freighter

The walk to the nursery was pretty uneventful, but I did see a freighter ship. When I got there, I saw a milk spill, a crumpled up peice of paper, and a dictionary on the floor.

visit, efflux, lecture

At the start of my visit, I saw an efflux of parents giving many a lecture to their babies. I went up to the front desk and asked them. “Have any of your babies gone missing?” I asked. “Yes, one. His name was Try Tie Kick” they said. “How can a tie kick? And why do I have to try?” I replied. “No, no, no. His name is that. It is spelled t-r-i-t-y-c-h-i-c. Last name Smith”. “Okay, bye. I’m done with my questions about Try Tie Kick Smith”, I lied.

transmission, lick, identification

So I got the identification of Tritychic, but their hasn’t been a transmission of the athlete’s name. I remembered the scene. Tritychic went down to lick the floor. Ew. But then he saw the athlete, and ran after him. That was all. Maybe Tritychic knew the athlete. I thought, “Wait, what did the athlete look like?”, and then it clicked. He WAS the kid, and his name was P. People made fun of that name, but he said it was the first letter of the name he really had. He refused to elaborate.

budget, reptile, river

I knew where he lived. We were friends, and his house was right next to a budget man-made river with one reptile. So I went there.

braid, distributor, grain

When I got to his house, I saw the baby. I also saw him. So I asked him the obvious question. “So why is this baby, Tritychic, here, and why is he ‘missing’?”. He replied, “Well, this baby was stolen from me. I am not P. P, short for Pseudonym, was my pseudonym.”, and he took off his weird mask. “I am Bob. CEO of the illegal BRAID grain distributor. Full name Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob”, and he was promptly arrested. Tritychic was adopted. Now I got enough money from the missing reward that I quit my TERRIBLE JOB. The end.
