Every previous one devolved into a screaming argument over what music to play within two paragraphs.

I have a smart home setup in my bedroom. As it is the master bedroom, it also doubles as my lab. Currently, every light fixture in the room is smart, and there is an Invoke for Cortana, a Google Home mini for Google Assistant and an Echo Dot for Alexa. I use them all, and compare the responses. In the apps for these Artificial Intelligence (AI) devices, there is an option to group all the smart fixtures based on what room they are in, and to name all the smart fixtures that connect to each other. With the exception of the Echo Dot, which I have named after a character in Shippuden, all the fixtures have standard names, like bedroom light. Since they are all connected and managed by a single device, I want them to have names with a common theme. To that end, I’m taking a page from Bill Gates-era Microsoft, which boasted a number of conference rooms with names that ended with -tion, such as “procrastination”, “motivation”, “synchronization”, etc. These are just examples, mind you – and boring ones at that. I want to change the names of the four smart light fixtures in my bedroom to something that uses that theme. However, I’m short on imagination this evening. Can you guys suggest some fun/creative/inventive/radical/etc. words that end with -tion? Thanks.

Well, this a strange burst of creative inspiration... 8 chapters in the equivalent time of approximate eight hours across two days... After so long of not feeling it, I'd almost forgotten what a rush it could be.
