I just rewatched the Importance of Being Earnest yesterday so I feel like I’m following your vision here

Anybody else ever have a post that shows there’s a comment, but there are no comments?

Is this a bug? Or should I just exist in peace bc it means a block list is working? 🧐

It didn’t keep shimmering for long. No sooner had Dan’s fingers closed against its haft than it lost its lustre all at once, turning a deep crimson shade, darkening so quickly it might as well have turned black on the spot. And, by the Devil, the whole thing felt heavy. Not enough to prevent a creature like him from using it in a fight, but definitely too heavy for Magda to be able to even stand straight while carrying it. The itch to try the weapon for himself coursed through his fingers; the Vashtai in his blood still chanted their hunger for it, for its purity quickly fading away as he tested its balance with one swift swoop. It wasn’t rejecting him, not exactly, but it wasn’t very welcoming either—had it been capable of speech, Dan wouldn’t have been surprised to hear it say: ‘Make me.’ As for Magda, she now stood rooted like a statue, lips trembling as if about to cry, shock plain on her features. Dan handed the scythe back to her, watching her grab it with eager hands, watching it turn back to its previous appearance almost in a snap of fingers. ‘Now that’s interesting,’ he whispered. ‘Did it hurt when I touched it?’ ‘N-no, but it was…’ She swallowed hard, finding her countenance again: ‘It felt… unpleasant. Weird. As if icy fingers were—caressing my soul.’

So many instances of "fight", so of course I picked one where no one is actually fighting 😂

Context: Magda has let Dan hold her scythe (an Artefact that can only manifest in the Obverse). It gets weird for both of them.

the best thing about reading books is everything. some books are gonna make me think about all MY life choices. others are gonna make me think about the CHARACTERS' life choices. some are wild rides i gobble up in one sitting. others take longer and make me feel drunk on story when done.

BOOKS!!!!

I’m restless today so I’m being Incredibly Online and making it everyone else’s problem too

Looking out my window at goddamn snow right now is making me feel really good about fucking off outside earlier this week

That’s really great! Truly, no effort is wasted

Good luck!

Absolutely just one of the most stunning women drawing breath on this planet right now 😮‍💨

I love sneaking little writing sessions in while lounging in the bath, which means that sometimes I open a google doc and find like 2000 words I forgot I wrote! Anyway follow me for more productivity tips

Cardamom is a god tier spice imo. Unbelievable that we are allowed to just taste it

He just loves to be bossed around a little. Wife guy behavior all the way down.

“It’s crime that you left that there to taunt me, what did a boy do to deserve such cruelty”

His suffering is truly legendary 😂Our compromise is usual I eat the white and he gets at least half my yolk (hard boiled or over hard works)

No matter how many Things I get done, it always feels like I should have done other, different things.

Rude.

Haha thank god he’s the least destructive dog in the world and extremely polite! We can even leave human food on a low coffee table and he won’t steal (but he will look incredibly persecuted about it). Socks are safe, tho he will pick one up and greet you with it if he can’t find a toy fast enough

For mine it’s eggs! He hears the carton come out and it’s full attention immediately, and a complete sulk if he’s not indulged.

Many memories were made in Baltimore last week. Here’s a lot of them from the conference floor with author friends from years past. Escape the mundane one smile at a time. Thank you, let’s do it again. AWP is great.

Yes! Tho granted my dog is a Labrador so it’s faster to list the things he WON’T eat 😂

Made a graphic 💅🏻

We need reparations for ICE victims.

Anything short of that is setting the stage for a massive wealth grab from people of color that will re-entrench racial disparities for generations.

Oh my god he needs to be friends with my dog, who will BEG the second he hears the cutting board. He loves carrots and would gladly clean up after your mannerly guy to hide the evidence 😂

Frankly every day men survive (and I’m assuming the bartenders here were too) is a fucking miracle. Borrowed time ass behavior

Grossssss like just full horror behavior what the fuck 🫠

Oh I’m a sweaty person but I don’t let that stop me from basking like a reptile for SURE. 🦎☀️

Me every time the sun comes out: is this mental health 👀

She knew she should be patient. Such clues always unveiled gradually, like a puzzle whose pieces she first had to find, instead of just putting them together. Still, it remained as frustrating as ever. This was why she tolerated seers at best, but never enjoyed working with them, and trusted them even less. Of the Underworld’s denizens, sure, they tended to be the least annoying, in that they didn’t sprout fangs or claws or fur, didn’t try to drink people’s blood, didn’t go around peddling suspicious Fae wares or swapping children in their cribs, didn’t even wield much magic to begin with. Usually. Yet they were still straddling that border between the mundane and the supernatural, between unknowing mortals and that world born from the Veil of old, back to those times when the substance of the Obverse had still been leaking into the human world, a drop here, a drop there, until one day or one night, a shapeshifter or a vampire arose from the puddle.

I don't have "resident", but "denizen" should do the trick?

Context: Sam reflecting upon her encounter with Kgabu, the young seer she met at Amara's place.

I enjoyed it a lot!!

You know what, you’re right😌
