πŸ’šπŸ§‘ Janais and Arlise'el ("Rook") grew up in the same clan; little Arlie looked up to Janais dearly. But when Janais is exiled from the clan, that opinion sours. later, she blames Janais for the loss of their clan in Wycome & honestly hates her. but they do come to understand each other eventually

πŸ’šπŸ’œ Janais and Hedy Mae would have a "stitch n bitch" hang at the Herald's Rest over drinks (as an embroiderer and knitter, respectively). Hawke tells it like it is, which Janais enjoys, and Janais is pragmatic yet empathetic which Hawke respects. Hawke is the only person allowed to call her "Jan."

πŸ’™πŸ’š Shira and Janais Lavellan would share an elfroot cig. there's a lot of respect there between them, though I don't think their personalities are very well-matched. and Shira would *not* get what Janais sees in Solas at ALL and just be like "girl dump him" anytime he comes up in convo.

πŸ’™πŸ’œ I think Shira Tabris and Hedy Mae Hawke would get along well enough, they're both very sarcastic and jokey, though Shira would definitely rip on Hawke for being a bit of a snobbish noble. the two of them getting together over drinks would cause Anders & Alistair the most beloved of headaches.

had upwards of 500 people come to the community holiday event that I planned for work this weekend and what did I get for it but a sore throat and a lingering tiredness that has me in bed at 8 pm 😒 was a wonderful lovely time but now I'm gonna need about 5-7 business days to recover

@worldofthedaszine.bsky.social art pt. 4!
I didn't know if this one was gonna end up in the Rivain chapter or the recipes chapter, but either way, proud of how yummy this soup looks. I even hid a tiny fish head in there as a nod to the recipe illustrations in the original World of Thedas book!

here are Ranganathan’s 5 Laws of Library Science.

1. Books are for use.
2. Every reader their book.
3. Every book its reader.
4. Save the time of the reader.
5. A library is a growing organism.

they can be read as a directive for technical efficiency. i read them as an ethical commitment. πŸ“š

it's so fun getting to play alongside them every week, honestly some of the most creative roleplaying I've been a part of. and DnD is such a great social-emotional learning tool for young people!

also, another work brag bc I'm feeling proud today: a coworker and I started a DnD youth program at our library this fall after a completely student-run group fizzled out last year, and it's now expanding into three (!!!) different weekly sessions led by two incredible volunteer dungeon masters!! ⭐✨

one of my regular library teens told me today that for school they had to do a presentation on a place that is special to them and they did it on the LIBRARY 😭β™₯️😭 took everything in me not to cry right there! it means so much to me to cultivate a place where they feel safe and accepted and heard β™₯️

a few months ago I accidentally ruined a load of my favorite clothes by leaving a pen in my jeans pocket 😭 blue ink got all over everything. BUT I've been slowly working on covering those stains with some fun embroidery and mending techniques. look how this sundress came out!!
