All it would take is a sour dram, a precision nick, or a short drop and sudden stop. She was dead. Her woodland peace, her lush comfort of forest green, her sliver of garden that brought hope and beauty into her world of cruelty and blood. Taken by a darkness twisted by a god’s perverse love, more black than even her own murderous soul. Her sorrow spread deeper than an aspen tree’s roots. She could join her. She could follow the gold piece she just tossed into the abyss of Kelemvor’s well, tumbling ever deeper until they were reunited in the emerald halls of Summeroak. All it would take is a second of weakness.

I use writing to help me through depression and difficult times. Just remember this: it’s YOUR outlet! It doesn’t matter if none or 1,000 other people like it, as long as YOU like it, that’s what matters most.

Listen… *deep breath* I just wanna be wrist deep in granny cranny, PLEASE LET ME, LARIAN!

on the one hand I struggle to imagine a Jaheira romance that I think would make sense within the confines of Act 3, and on the other hand I’d really love to see how they tried to do it because they clearly love and respect the character so much

obviously it doesn’t matter because we aren’t getting new content anymore and I’d rather have more Wyll content first BUT you know

I have things to do today, but I’m bed rotting with my wife and cats instead. Here’s some Jaheira/Nine-Fingers thoughts, picked fresh from my brain this morning.

[raethanbhanneth]

YAAAASS!!!

working on the sequel to this fic today and didn’t finish it because i am trying to “make healthy choices” and “not stay up until 3am” or whatever but here’s a sneak peek …

“Don’t get mad if I fall asleep on you” for Jaheira/NF

Jaheira’s curled up on Astele’s bed—not wildshaped, not surreptitious, just Jaheira. She smiles like this isn’t something novel and also fucking insane. This isn’t what they do. She shows up late at night sometimes, sure, but not late at night when she’s got adventurers to herd, tucked up at the Elfsong doing whatever other insane charity work needs their attention. She doesn’t have time for things like this.

She’s not wearing her fuck-me lingerie, and it is psychologically damaging for Astele to realize that they’ve been doing this for enough time that she can tell how Jaheira’s feeling based on what she’s worn to bed. Fuck-me lingerie—pretty self-explanatory. Green adventuring leathers—business only, and she’s usually paired them with a grim expression that’s nothing like the drowsy smile Astele sees now.

She’s wearing a smile. A smile, and a soft, summer-green blouse with gauzy sleeves, clearly designed for relaxation, possibly at least fifty years out of style. On anyone else, it would look absurd. Jaheira can’t look absurd to Astele.

“Don’t get mad if I fall asleep on you,” Astele says, shoulders up. “Been a hell of a day even with the Stone Lord gone. And there’s worse coming.”

“I know,” says Jaheira. She stretches out her legs on the bed and pats the spot next to her.

Astele sits down.

Jaheira touches her face. “You do look tired,” she observes, but not in the usual tone of voice. A different one.

“Is this because we’re all going to fucking die?”

“Perhaps.” Jaheira’s fingers brush her cheek. No one else in the world is allowed to touch Astele like that, she decides, and then realizes there’s an else in that sentence. “Perhaps I just missed you.”

Today is one of those days where I don’t feel like existing, but I’m too tired for an existential crisis, so I just got up and came to work like normal. I need Minthara to yell me for feeling down, Karlach to hype me up about life, and Jaheira to give me a 45-minute lecture on how giving up would cause a ripple affect, touching everyone that’s ever known me.

[raethanbhanneth]

Us old people hate this. Knock it off, whippersnappers!

having friends notably older than you is fantastic actually, cause you can drop in a little mention of how old you would have been at the time of a story they tell and watch the existential crisis set in

[raethanbhanneth]

Omg, someone please make this happen!

Jaheira needs to be put in an Aylin/Isobel sandwich. Just trust me on this. It will be good for everyone involved

Slow fingers and hands touched her everywhere. They roamed over the scars and grief of her ancient body while the essence of her lover lingered on her face. They soothed, they comforted, they healed, they relaxed yet brought with them a longing ache deep within her old soul. She had expected violence. She had expected a cold dagger to her throat, the blade wrenching, twisting and gnawing, but what she really found was a quiet admiration, a quiet admission that made her body thrum a harpsong: the blade least expected.

they are so cute 😔❤️ cr FLampsy

Haha! Same! I spent my teen years slowly being turned gay by these two (a joke - I was already gay!).

More people discovering ‘Xena: Warrior Princess’.

I couldn’t be fucking prouder as a veteran fan!

This TV show is truly timeless.

Enjoy, virgins. It’s one wild and gay fucking horse ride.

How two video game characters have captivated me for ABSOLUTELY NO REASON is beyond me. I need help! (Don’t help me, I love them)

it's so wild to me that you absolutely cannot force a hyperfixation to happen. like you'll watch the most perfectly tailor-made-for-you content that everyone says you'll love and feel absolutely nothing, and then the thing you watch on a whim to fill time will reach through the screen and put its damn fingers in your brain and start rearranging the neurons right in front of you and every single time you're like THIS??? THIS??????? and this happens like every 6-12 months forever
