There is no "safe" place for niche kinks or darker content until paypros change their policies. This is why the call/letter campaign is so important-- sites like Patreon, Itchio, Steam, etc, have to bend the knee because they companies are SO HUGE and control the entire money flow. It's a mess.

KOSA passed out of the subcommittee in the House on 13-10 vote. Meaning that they are FINALLY listening to some opposition. But not enough to prevent the other age verification bills from passing, let alone this.

They MUST listen to opposition. Losing this fight is NOT an option.

Nat could be a graceful dancer but she prefers to Mosh.

Vola hasn't danced due to self conscious reasons but after seeing people dance at Goth Night, she is maybe feeling the urge.

Mara: "Dad says he knows best and gets angry. He's always been angry. Nat says I shouldn't listen but he just...he knows. Always. Shatrava? Are you there? (3/?)

Doran: "Gaius matters more than this life, but I've been in it so long how do we get out."

Gaius: "Dad loves me but he doesn't listen. Ahroun scares me. The twins scare me. Vola's gone. What happens if Dad dies?" (2/?)

Medusa and the Blind Lady. The amount of art, and stories I have of this pairing is insane. Especially the art of @luomanart.bsky.social of them.

They represent something (1/?)

Not directly writing related but I took a leather marbling class tonight and got a cute little journal and journal cover I can swap out for a fresh notebook. Very easy to do. But messy as hell.

So we went through the plot seeds we planted and came across the question, What Happened to Nat's Father?

Thus Akash (her dead dad) became Nat's unfinished business, and we could explore Mara's redemption arc as a parallel story that takes place in East NDB while Nat and Vola are in WEST NDB.

as rule focused as Mara is would not be trying to game church rules the same way Nat did.

So we ditched her as Nat's personal antagonist for "One Bad Tuesday". So we had to replace and rework the story but keep a core moment that happens to Nat. A very important one. (5/?)

The abuse and actions of Mara towards Nat now had roots and reason we could zero on. Guilt she would have over it because of her trauma and mental illnesses. Not justified but identifiable.

So having her stalk Nat, or there being a open window for return to the church. Also that someone (4/?)

we realized she wasn't some stereotype villain and would have to have some redeeming qualities. Otherwise why was Nat with her? Why would Aoife like her?

So we dug down further into Mara as though she was a protagonist. This opened up whole new story that is now Truth to Trauma. (3/?)

So in the original original drafts, there was a way for Excommunicated Aasimar to return, and Mara was a bit more of an evil ex and obsessed with bringing Nat back to "the light". Full brainwashing and all. Then as we got further into the fact that Mara would have her own story (2/?)

Funny enough we had this issue with Mara, Nat's ex GF. Instead of sticking to the plot point we originally established, we had to make changes. Strap in cause this is old L&M lore (1/?)

Hello, friends! Cat's #sapphiclineshare will return in January. Life is mercilessly life-ing right now, so I'll be taking this month to myself to catch up on my writing goals and maintain my sanity. January will see more writing to show and more weekly prompts to show it with!

PlayStation, Spotify and Twitch point out how self-care 2025 was. And yes most of my watch time is given to my "Glowshi" and my fellow Glowsticks.

AI literally reduced my pay per word by 60% as a freelance writer. Despite that, I'm still supposed to embrace AI and love AI and trust AI for my career and other future endeavors. Sure, yeah, cool cool cool.

TBH in our playthroughs it was the Butches that did all the house repairs ans decor while the femmes handled crafty stuff and all the home tech support. It was wild how detailed they got.

One even pulled the "your toxic ex called you."
