Show me a god that deserves worship and I'll consider not striking them from the heavens.

It's my birthday! And I'm celebrating by posting a chapter I'm proud of! The second to last chapter of Witch Hunt is here!

Chapter 5: Promises Kept

Aedan & Co finally catches up to Morrigan leading to an outcome neither one expects

I want to know! What would be your #DABlorbos' biggest turn-on and turn-off?

For Alyss

Turn on: Definitely kindness, gentleness. Especially because she's not used to getting a lot of it.

Turn off: People who are pushy or disrespectful of boundaries in ANY way, even the smallest of ways. Also men in general (sorry, lads).

Also, huge, monumental thanks to @twilightsinferno.bsky.social for gifting me with this commission AND for designing Alyss' armor. It's *their* birthday today so you all should go wish them a happy birthday and show their fics some love!

I am so in my damn feels LOOK AT THEM. (art by @polaeart.bsky.social, also polaeart on X and TikTok, you should look them up there!)

It's Alyss in her Warden Commander era and her Chantry wife. 😭

Visa is now actively shutting down calls regarding their censorship and prohibition of the sale of legal product.

They clearly retrained their staff on how to deal with our calls. That doesn't happen unless there's critical mass.

KEEP IT UP. They are trying to turf the calls as fast as they can.

I have one AU for Alyss where she never gets conscripted, escapes the dungeons, and just is The Dark Wolf. Later on she joins the Inquisition and meets Leliana there instead of during the blight.

I may write about that timeline one day. I have some ideas for it. Main fic takes priority though.

A sketch of Merrill in green pencil. Her eyes are large and she has a slight smile on her face.

Started playing DA2 again and needed to do a quick sketch of the most precious blood mage of all time 🌼 #dragonage #merrill #da2

I am lost. I am lost. I am lost.

Holy fuck I did Alyss some damage this chapter.

I feel so horrible about it. lol

Yay, I love writing. Telling stories is the coolest. 😭

Have you ever looked closer at the rats in Veilguard? Because I love these silly little things so much, look at them go!!🐀

Now you have~

The ship of Theseus, by the end of the story, wasn't a new or different ship: It is what it needed and, truly, was ultimately meant to be. The old ship was needed to get there; it wasnt lost as pieces were changed or pared away or replaced, it simply became what was right.

This is not about a ship.

you are not hard to love, you are not too much. you were just loved by people who didn’t know how to stay. who didn’t know how to hold you. and that’s not your shame to carry. you’re allowed to be soft. to be loud. to need things. the right people won’t drown in your depth, they’ll meet you there.💙

I feel like most of my characters would stop listening at "and it works". 😆

Not so gentle reminder:

You are worthy
You are welcome
You would be missed

Believe it, and if you don't, I will believe it for you. Fandoms are for everyone.

My promo for the day will be a “meet the founder” post over on the Plot Twist Cafe Instagram, but since the BSky crowd knows me a bit better, I want to highlight this thread again. It’s about how I got to where I am in this bookstore dream.

Also here is me! Pre one of my besties’ wedding ✨

You save everyone, but who saves you?

See here a picture taken moments before disaster.

And by disaster, I mean a sloth demon.

The world needs more indie bookstores and indie books need more shelves to be on, so please go back Bailey’s kickstarter or help spread the word! Nothing would make me happier than to see my friend succeed! 💜

Generative AI by definition is conformity. It is an averaging of anything you ask of it - quite literally guessing what the most likely version of a thing might be. It is, by definition, mainstream, as is everything it creates old and deeply ideological, as every model trains on similar data.

I am broken beyond words.
