I have #SoMany #Questions.. ?’s in which I’ve learned (more like, I had to) #NotToAsk since that comes along with #WhatItDoes and ALL #theVillageIdiots whom then are some kind of “”#Leisure”” to be running around like as if they have or are in "#Control" of ANYTHING. #SuggestiveManeuvers, #theTiqc’ing and such— In this case and added to other points of #Nonsense and #theFuhkery and such, I’m sure that this is just the supposed "#Comeback | #Retaliation" and theWarOfAttrition catching up— Or, TRYING to #CatchUp #toMe, 🤷🏾‍♂️'#WhateverThatsMeans or is suppose to to someone who doesn’t feel or seem to be in the lead when it comes to ANYTHING_ :I wasn’t eating meat and didn’t even realize it.”🤦🏾‍♂️ Call it a relapse since I’m done with "#Beef"(#Cow).. .😅'#LongStories."✌🏾. ..😒 ____________ :#LifeOnEarth° https://www.instagram.com/p/ClEp55ZJVPS/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

fic stats game!

Saw this floating around the fandom today, and I wanted to play, too!

Rules: Give us the links to your fics with the most hits, second most kudos, third most bookmarks, fourth most comments, fifth most words, and your fic with the least amount of words.

Most hits: Northern Lights and Midnight Sun - Chapter 1 - Ownsariver - A Song of Ice and Fire - George R. R. Martin [Archive of Our Own]

Atm: 106633 hits.

Summary: Sansan, Braime. Picking up where GRRM left us. A certain four-clover ends up escaping the Vale, but at which costs, personally and politically? What has happened in Westeros since they got lost in the mountains, and how will Sansa navigate her role in life as the Targaryens strive for the Iron Throne?

A story about personal trials and growth. Of slow-burn hotness, love, friendship, humour, and politics that include both religion and the hidden fight for female, queer, and indigenous rights.

Two books' worth of fic is already finished, and the story is now nearing the end of book three.

Second most kudos: Release on Horseback - Chapter 1 - Ownsariver - A Song of Ice and Fire - George R. R. Martin [Archive of Our Own]

Summary: Sansan. In answer to a prompt in a comment fic meme a long time ago: 'One of them makes the other come while riding together on horseback. No, I do not care how impractical it is :D'

The horse also got to have a say.

Third most bookmarks: Already listed, so I'll do second most bookmarks: The Grand Tourney of the Tub. - Ownsariver - A Song of Ice and Fire - George R. R. Martin [Archive of Our Own]

Summary: Sansan. My contribution to VISUAL PROMPT MEME NO. 2 at sansa_sandor a good while back. http://ic.pics.livejournal.com/the_moonmoth/4080038/21261/original.png

Sansa walks in on Sandor on his way into that steaming copper tub, which quickly turns into an unofficial competition in embarrassing each other.

Fourth most comments: Already listed, so I'll do third most comments: Mistress of a disrespectful dog! - Ownsariver - A Song of Ice and Fire - George R. R. Martin [Archive of Our Own]

Summary: Sansan. BD/SM, porn, pegging. Do not read if you can't handle it.

Fifth most words: Also already listed, so I'll do fifth most hits. Thrice the Pleasure for the Price of One - Ownsariver - A Song of Ice and Fire - George R. R. Martin [Archive of Our Own]

Summary: Sansan smut. What to do when you need to keep your maidenhead intact, but also want to fuck a Hound.

Fic with the least amount of words: Smug report from the dazed dog to the envious Lion - Ownsariver - A Song of Ice and Fire - George R. R. Martin [Archive of Our Own]

Summary: Ouff... old, horrid one. The day after Thrice the Pleasure. Will be edited sharply one day.

#this was fun#just to look at the different stats!

🚀🚀🚀 Good news, everyone! The LongStory 2 Kickstarter is live! We need games like LongStory now more than ever. We are looking to raise CAD $25,000 in finishing funds: https://bit.ly/4a8p7Jm

LongStory was originally created in 2014 as an alternative to shallow “insert coins for romance” sims on the market. LongStory was one of the first dating sims that supported young people in exploring their gender, sexuality and identity in a safe supportive space, and we’ve had a devoted fan base since the first game launched.

Your support will help us make a full new season of a diverse and LGBTQ+ game that our players have already fallen in love with. At Bloom we believe the world needs games that create that hopeful and loving future: You can help us continue this story with our signature compassion, curiosity, conversation and, occasionally, sarcasm.

Backing this project gets you access to the sequel, the original game and some sweet LongStory swag! Not to mention the satisfaction of knowing more inclusive, safe, consent-based emotional gaming content will be available for players new and old.

Also honestly the swag is so cute, folks, go check it out:

My submission for @akumatizedcamembert's 4K DTIYS! This is actually a “colour this in your style” – it's a bit different to the original colouring sheet because I edited it (with permission) to fit my poster idea, but I love that it's still so clearly Ine's brilliant art! I picked Strike Back as my theme because it's my absolute favourite episode <3

To make this, I traced (again, with permission) my edited version of the colouring sheet then went over the lines in pen. I coloured it with whatever pencils I had lying around, most of which I've had since middle school lol. Finally, I played around with the saturation and colours a bit in Photoshop, and voilà! Passable fan art!

Here's the original poster and colouring sheet from the wonderful @akumatizedcamembert -

I had a lot of fun doing this and I'm very pleased with what I managed to create, so thank you so much for running such a fun and unique DTIYS, Ine!! And of course, congratulations on 4K!

#AC4KDTIYS #ladybug #chat noir #ladynoir #strike back ep #cory creates #this is the only art i've posted online aside from one (1) longstory fanart in 2015 #from a now-deleted tumblr account (RIP)#so i'm actually v nervous about putting something i've created out there #because everyone in the fandom is so talented!! and i'm really not an artist #but this was just such a fun idea for a DTIYS and having the option to colour felt much more in my comfort zone #so thank you so much for doing this and including an option for non artists like me!!#edit: now with image descriptions! sorry for not including them from the start - it's something i'll be more aware of in the future!

It's time to meet the character of Miranda again! She's close to Nora. She also sees a lot of history...and finds her older years fraught with disappointment, death and a descent into the unknown. Get yourself wrapped up in the impossible. Sometimes, the history books don't have all the information. It's possible to seek other perspectives and see possibilities. #HistoricalFiction #HistoricalDrama #RomanicStory #ActionAdventure #Thrilling #MedievalTimes #QueenOfTheConquest #FirstHandAccount #IWasThere #WitnessToHistory #SheWolf #Banshee #Crusades #WorldWar #CivilWar #CastingShadows #TheCircleIsBroken #ThroughTheMeadow #BookSeries #LongStories https://www.instagram.com/p/ClEpVp6vwUk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

MJ Tumblr Takeover

Hey there tumblies, it's me, ya boi!

I’m MJ (he/him), a queer, overcaffeinated, perpetually exhausted, chronically online, cat- and TTRPG-obsessed, BL-loving, shameless weeb, memelord (wannabe), raging anti-capitalist chaotic word goblin and aspiring cryptid, and I AM TAKING OVER THE LONGSTORY TUMBLR! (At least for a bit.)

Born: 08/09 Height: 182 cm Blood Type: [redacted] Type: Tsundere

I’ve been working on LongStory (on and off) since 2015, but I actually started as a fan! Once upon a time I blogged about queer nerd stuff for Xtra, Canada’s longtime LGBTQ+ publication, and I stumbled on the first episode of this adorable little romantic visual novel through Twitter (RIP). I was absolutely charmed, an instant fan, this gorgeous little game that let me relive the trials and tribulations of grade school life but in a more queer and trans friendly world. It was exactly the kind of game I wanted when I was growing up in a VERY small town in the Canadian Maritimes. So when they did a call for writers I think I was physically vibrating from excitement putting together my resume and sample scene—I actually remember exactly where I was, it was one of those weird, stars-aligned, stranger than fiction moments, but that’s a story for another time!

When I joined the team, we were basically a few writers, the producer/CEO and the programmer sitting around in a room figuring stuff out. I VERY ENTHUSIASTICALLY wrote a single VERY LONG episode which—instead of making me cut it down—the project leads generously cut in two and became Episode 4: Drama and Episode 5: Make Up, and I’ve been working with the company as a writer and narrative designer since then!

LongStory’s the first game project I ever got to work on, it’s near and dear to my heart, so when I got asked to join the team on a follow-up I was once again vibrating with excitement. The company is no longer a few people sitting around in a room, it’s basically doubled to a dozen actual employees and then a bunch of part-time contributors like me, and we’re working on not one, not two, but three—okay, one of them is in very early development, but still—games, with more coming down the line! It’s like we’re a real game company or something?!

YOU MAY HAVE HEARD WE’RE DOING A KICKSTARTER! We’re taking preorders through a crowdfunding campaign to finish development on seven shiny new episodes. We would ABSOLUTELY love if you supported the campaign, with just under two weeks and little over half way to our goal we really want to make it happen!

But, long story short (har har har), we wanted to make sure you know that there is a free Steam demo that you can very much play if you haven’t already! The team, including our narrative lead and I, put so much love into this demo which, let’s be honest, is the first full episode of LongStory 2. If you play it and like it, let us know what you think! In the meantime, I’m going to be here writing about what it’s like to work on LongStory, maybe take a look at some fun new additions to LS2, share some of our favourite fanart, answer some asks… talk about the music I’m listening to… uh… share cat pictures… SO YEAH! I hope to hear from some of you over the next couple of weeks! Otherwise I’ll just be here… you know, doing my thang?

Before I go… I’m just gonna leave this here…
