i dont know how else to put this but to approach books (or any media, really) solely for the sake of relatability is genuinely incredibly heartbreaking......to have such little (or such unwilling) imaginative scope that you cannot stretch yourself, even marginally, in a different direction to what you’ve known or are used to knowing when the very POINT of stories is to transport you somewhere else, into someone else, so you can do just that........when fran lebowiz said a book “is supposed to be a door!” and george saunders said good prose “is like empathy training wheels” they were right!!! they were so so so SO absolutely entirely right!!!!!

is that where y'all go for Fandom News and Information?

I know I'm delirious with tiredness because today I thought 'what if I wrote a little mini series of Efnisien having a breakdown because he has to train a poodle puppy and he was in no way prepared for the reality and even though Arden is helping a lot it's just a series of chapters of Efnisien lying face down on the floor crying a little while Iris eats his hair.'

So y'know

Currently working on: Ronance fantasy au which I don't have enough off to really explain much but it's gonna be lovely. Prompts, I'm always working on prompts. And a bunch of papers. Currently I'm still working on three papers but I already finished two so I should be proud of myself.

I never know who to tag in these things so just if you want to do it you can say I tagged you.

I was initially planning to bring Andrea to the Stranglethorn Bonfire Bash again this year, but I was sitting in bed like, five days before the event when I wondered if the name "Cwab" was taken on Epsilon yet. It took me a solid two hours to get it out of my head enough to actually sleep, and the first thing I did in the morning was check... and it was indeed not taken. From there it was a pretty easy jump to Boggie's "I role played a character who doesn't speak Common so I didn't necessarily have to engage with folks and it was great" story from last year, and a bit of learning how to actually Do Things on Epsilon that retail servers don't allow, and I got to spend nearly all of this year's in-game event "RPing" as a crab :D

But an actual crab can't really do much when it comes to a transmog contest, and that was the one event I actually wanted to participate in. I could have brought Andrea for that, but I spent three days putting together the outfit while on Cwab, not on Andrea, and I didn't realize that that wasn't ideal until nearly the last second. Instead, I changed my TRP "currently" to some line about a kindly naga sea witch having temporarily granted a humanoid body to my crab, which lasted just long enough for the mog contest, and then (when I washed out of the first round of Melonbane right after) wore off, at which point everybody's new favourite crab friend scuttled off (to go chase transmog on my priest on retail).

I didn't win but I wanted to draw my outfit anyway because I felt in need of some personal redemption; during the contest itself, my orange layer blended in a little too well with the red, and it looked like all one piece unless you were super close, which nobody really was. I did all my mog stuff in MogIt and the Swimsuit mall, and Bonfire Isle itself was a different lighting environment. Knowledge for next year!

And also because female dwarves are cute :P

rat literally are you ever not sick

Lol no

Something undeniably sexy about naming files like this

Hi there!! I hope you don't mind me asking, but I was curious to know if you still had your tshirt shop up for the terror metal au shirts? I got one ages ago, but the print on it was kinda funny and seems like it's flaking off, so I was thinking about possibly getting another one. I hope you're doing well, and I hope you have a great week!!
