I love how closed captions on movies now say stuff like (sarcastically) and (sighs sadly) and (whispering) and (chuckles) and (giggles) llike thank you so much for taking the time to clarify the emotion and way something was said so that Deaf and HOH and Autistic people have an easier time enjoying the movie :)

Sometimes, I wish it was normal to have friend questionnaires.

What should I avoid talking about?

What do you love at the moment?

Anything I need to avoid or help with?

Favorite animal? (look, it's important to me)

Animals are easier than people.

Anyway how does one tell the difference between romantic feelings and a deep - platonic - affection for someone?

If anyone can help me figure that out I’d be eternally grateful. You know, just, for science … 👀

I hope that when things get hard, or my friends are going through something. They feel comfortable enough to tell me. I want to do my best to be there for them.

Expanding upon the last ask I sent, (Anxious Gem)

Part of the put in place system for Gem is a bag full of comforting things. Stuffed animal, snacks, blankets, ear defenders and anything else she could possibly need. But the best way to calm her after her intense anxiety will always be just to hold/hug her

A simple code word, or even a symbol or emoji, to send in chat could also be useful. Something to indicate "I'm alone and afraid. Is anyone there?" without needing to type it all out. That way, if she's too anxious to feel okay with directly asking, she can still reach out and minimize the time between her getting upset and getting comfort.

Bow Before The Elf Queen by J.M. Kearl

598 pages, published April 26, 2022 - 🌟🌟🌟🌟 So this book like the one before also has a sequel coming out, however, it seems hazy on when it's releasing since I can only find a date on amazon (which is October 26, 2022) This is another book where once I finished It and put it away, almost instantly things started to evaporate from my memory/brain.

SHERRYSTIRRED: My dearest star-seeker, Ducky, as we celebrate yet another anniversary, it feels as though the passage of time has been interminable, enveloped in the warmth of your embrace and traversing the expanse of celestial realms alongside you. At times, I struggle to recall the exact duration of our union, whether it be in matrimony or simply as devoted paramours, for it seems as though you have been a constant presence in my life from the very inception. You are my first love and will forever remain my last, and to this day, I vividly recall the moment of my initial encounter with you at the back of that circus tent, and the profound impact it had on my understanding and perception of love. You have transformed my worldview, and for that, I am eternally grateful.The joy of being in your company on this special occasion is immeasurable, and I find myself constantly expressing my gratitude for the blessings of our union. We have shared in both the highs and lows of life, and it is of of massive importance to me that you remain by my side, even now, as our circumstances may have altered. I still behold the same person who first captured my attention, with your alluring complexity and endearing vulnerabilities. Though others may have doubted the possibility of our union, it has come to fruition and here we are, together. And that is what matters the most, the pinnacle of our love, even with all the shit that we had to endure. Our love has remained unwavering and steadfast, and I assure you that I will always be there for you.

To speak candidly, it is difficult for me to fully convey the depth of my appreciation for the fact that fate brought us together, through all the trials and tribulations that we have faced. You have been my guiding light and rock, and the statement that you have helped me to grow as an individual is a gross understatement. There have been times in my life when I was entrenched in resistance, and you were there for me, just as you were the first time we spoke. The nights and days spent in each other's company, the opening of my heart to you, and your unwavering belief in the eternal nature of love has been a source of immeasurable comfort. And here we are, many years later, and nothing has changed. I do not regret a single moment spent with you, let alone the years, for each has been a source of true happiness, safety and love. Without you, my world would be devoid of meaning, but with a single moment in your presence, everything is beautifully inverted. You care for me with such tenderness, highlighting my strengths and being my panacea for all that ails, even from afar, I am safe in the embrace of your benevolent love. You deserve nothing but the best, and I promise to always strive to give it to you. That is why I love you, to prove the immeasurable value you hold in my heart. The mere sight of your smile quickens my pulse, and I often wonder, how did I come to be so blessed as to have you in my life?

When did we fall in love? When is it predetermined to happen forever? Perhaps it was from the dawn of time, if one believes in the concept of soulmates. Your mere presence enriches my life, my heart races and my hands sweat when you're near, my body relaxes and my mind empties when you speak. No words can do justice to your astounding being, and I desire nothing more than to remain by your side until the end of time and beyond, through reincarnation. It is unfair that you make me the happiest person alive, with your daily smiles and kisses that banish any trace of sorrow. You have shown me time and again how fortunate I am to be wed to someone like you.

There're some days I add 123456789 posts into queue only to go back to lurking for another 987654321 years.

Sometimes I wonder if I genuinely miss things or if they just aren’t said to me…

HI HEY I am bursting into your ask box like Cosmo Kramer busts through his neighbour's door. I'm working quite irregularly through my backlog atm and regret that it's taken this long to get asks to you BUT I submit for your kind consideration the following OC Interview Asks to pass on to Yara my beloved :D (also I send her (and naturally you as well!) an excited wave and like seven thousand cool rocks)

16. Describe your perfect day 21. Describe your ideal partner 31 (freebie)- Tell me about your ideal house. Would it be big? What kind of colours/styles/things would you keep in it?

*first time trying to write her speaking, so sorry if it’s clunky and took a long while! She can be kind of verbose sometimes, Also, small text is quiet mumbling to herself, and bold is louder/more rushed excited speech. Tak tak tak is equivalent to “yes yes” “so” or “well well well”. Yolki-Palki (fir trees-sticks) is a euphemism for “fucking hell”. Sbornaya solyanka (solyanka soup with everything on hand) is an equivalent of “hodgepodge”.

Yara lifts her arm halfway up, more akin to one lifting their hand to ask a question than a wave, and smiles at you. She seems to be hard at work fiddling with something rather small, all the while throwing uncertain ~~bashful~~ glances at the formidable pile of rocks. She takes a deep breath.

“It’s good to see you, Plant. Tea? I have a great fruit one right-“ she seems unsure of how to approach the gift, giving off a slight deer-in-the-headlights feeling, albeit a distinctly pleased one “O - for me? Thank you. I didn’t expect such an addition to my collection- oh, you should see it when it gets organized!” The latter part of the sentence is significantly louder and faster than the rest as she claps her hands together “I’ve acquired a lot of new specimens from my last trip to Orzammar, even got my hands on some very curious raw lyrium…” she gives you a conspiratorial but overly exaggerated wink. She might not be very good at winking “of course, it is not to come into contact with anything, but it’s fascinating..!”

16) “Ah! My perfect day? Tak tak tak.. “ she drums her fingers on the table introspectively before reaching for a journal and leaning back, the next words coming out in a mumble “That’s a lot to fit into 24 hours… or, are you talking daytime? 12 hours, then? A perfect day… perfection is a bit of a difficult concept… Well, Zev would need to be there, of course, and Mishka should come too, and it would need to be somewhere nice - no, that’s too cold, and that’s a bit crowded, and I don’t think they allow dogs after last time- I think the gardens near the central market would do fine, they got some new plants - some quite toxic too ! - and there is the duck family and some of the people who come there are really weird! (Is probably firmly cemented in the neighborhood as one of said people, but the irony is lost on her) Yes, I think he’d like that. That and the more interesting shops…oh, and the fruit tarts! No, Mishka, my perfect day doesn’t include you eating the ducks! You can always make your own list!” The Mabari peeks over her shoulder, and sighs dramatically. He doesn’t have opposable thumbs. “Alright, we can stop by for some treats and take a few toys…Plus, I think this alleyway is quite infamous for murders lately, so that’s always fun!! To solve I mean. Or commit. Both is good..” she grins to herself ……at this point, it looks like she’s building a schedule. There is a murder slot. It’s a pretty big one. Mishka seems pretty excited about it.

21) “Oh, I already have one! Elvhen, Antivan, about 165 centimetres…no, that doesn’t seem right, I mean… that’s not..” There is a period of silence as her face appears to take on a grim expression, offset only by its clear shift to a bright red hue as she glances towards the other room. “He’s perfect, but I’m not sure how to put it into words. I haven’t ever thought about that kind of thing… he’s … he’s fun, and smart, and skilled in a scary amount of things, and takes things lightly and in stride. and …he cares, y’know? I s’pose that’s what caught me off guard the first time.” She fiddles with the knife in her hands some more, contemplating her answer “His position was complete garbage, y’see, but he still tried to have the best time he could, and he was very… straightforward in some ways…. Kind, even. T’ be honest, I didn’t get that at all” she chuckles, desperate to hide her embarrassment “Especially towards me. Other people I can understand, admire, even, but he just… spoke his mind when it counted, consequences be damned, and made sure everything was alright, despite everything… I know the feeling, and the conditions, and it’s hard to care about anything , much less so others. I’m … unsure of whether that answers your question.” She now seems genuinely amused. “Yolki-palki, leave it to moi to fall for an assassin’s kindness of all things. He made such a funny face when I told him, too… in my defence, the ~seduction~ went right over my head the first time and he’s wonderful and really should’ve seen it coming..”

31) “I’d say the place is pretty big.. it’s got a solarium, and a library, and some Knick knacks we picked up on the road..” it is unclear if she means the move, the travelling, or their journey through Ferelden as the road, but by the looks of it, it is a bit of everything. Weaponry and gems, among other things, appear as exhibits visible almost everywhere throughout the house. A wide smile precedes her next words “ a garden, too, and we’ve even managed to start up something of a brewing business. Plenty of room for ingredients. Style wise, well, it’s a sbornaya solyanka to be sure. We haven’t changed too much” she shifts in her seat. While the place does appear to house quite a few out-of-place items seemingly either handmade or closer to the Renaissance styling, both older and newer, clearly added in rather recently, the home appears to have been designed in a pretty consistent Gothic styling. “- it was a gift from an … old benefactor.”

After adding a few finishing touches, Yara sets a whittled figurine of a serpent down on the table , sliding it towards you :)
