grabbing people by the throat and respectfully informing them that stories aren’t obliged to end happily just because they want them to.

No doctor will ever get my respect like the woman in the ER who checked me for claws and fangs because I told her I was turning into a werewolf and could feel it and let me know gently that she couldn't find any but that didnt make it feel any less real, like THATS how you do it, other doctors who just flat out told me I was wrong take notes

Mark the electrician has been here for five minutes and he’s already said “well that’s…weird” twice from the other room and frankly I’m afraid to ask.

you know what? Fuck you. *turns your strong and stoic and serious character into a crying, traumatized, whimpering, curled up mess in the floor*

It feels unreal. It feels completely fucking unreal that Arcane is a real show that really exists. Number one show in the world in sixty countries, and two of the main characters are lesbians. One of them is butch, actual butch, butch on purpose, butch by design. Five of the main characters are women. Three of those women are women of color. And it’s just. It’s not a Woke Show. There’s no lessons about feminism. It’s not about lesbians finding themselves and coming out. There’s no commentary on racism or sexism or identity. There being this many women, queer people, poc, it’s just how it is. It’s a real show, it’s about the story, and it’s like any other show because it’s about the story first. And it’s one of the best written stories to come along in decades, and it’s about love and family and grief and loss and recovery and redemption and being lost and being found, and it’s transformative, and it is so narratively sound and artistically gorgeous, not a single frame or line by accident, everything so intentionally built and crafted and directed. And the lesbians kiss on-screen.

Temples are built for gods. Knowing this a farmer builds a small temple to see what kind of god turns up.

My adaptation of the God of Arepo short story, which was originally up at ShortBox Comics Fair for charity. You can get a copy of the DRM-free ebook here for free - and I'd encourage you to donate to Mighty Writers or The Ministry of Stories in exchange.

Again it's an honour to be drawing one of my favourite short stories ever. Thank you so much for the original authors for creating this story; and for everyone who bought a copy and donated to the above non-profits.

few things more humbling than the realization that you really do write the same fic(s) over and over again
