Kevin wakes up. He, Andrew, and Neil finally sort things out.

Pretty much a direct sequel to the previous work in this series, Filled With Dreams. I think it is probably necessary to have at least read that one before reading this one.

One of my favourite questions for figuring out a character’s motivations is which qualities they most fear being assigned to them. Are they afraid (consciously or unconsciously) of being seen as stupid? Ungrateful? Weak? Incompetent? Lazy? Cowardly? Intimidating? Like they actually care? etc.

It’s such a fun way to explore into who they are, why they do what they do, what they don’t do out of fear, and how they might be affected by the events of the story. And I love when characters have negative motivations—trying to avoid something (in this case, being seen a particular way) as much as they’re trying to achieve a goal.

Hey everyone, I know it's going to be a busy day for a lot of people, but Google enrolled everyone over 18 into their AI program automatically.

If you have a google account, first go to gemini.google.com/extensions and turn everything off.

Then you need to go to myactivity.google.com/product/gemini and turn off all Gemini activity tracking. You do have to do them in that order to make sure it works.

Honestly, I'm not sure how long this will last, but this should keep Gemini off your projects for a bit.

I saw this over on bluesky and figured it would be good to spread on here. It only takes a few minutes to do.

For the ones that need it today

Tired of stories where the author worldbuilds a whole religion only to chicken out at the last moment by making the main character a skeptic. You mean to tell me that there’s all this richness in lore and culture, but you’ve trapped me with the one person in this society who doesn’t care about it? So bland. I could meet an agnostic easily enough by walking down the street, but your story is my one chance to hear the perspective of someone who follows whatever religion you’ve contrived. You made this whole world; convince me that your character really is from there.

An absence so heavy it becomes a presence

It’s been a hard day bro can you pet me

[secondhandnesting]

remember when you’re writing a gross and terrible power dynamic that you should be asking yourself constantly how you could make it worse and sexier

fun thing about herding and/or generally neurotic breeds: they are really good at following rules you have instituted, but they will also make their own Dog Rules they will follow stringently whether or not you like it

Empathy: I feel you

Sympathy: I feel for you

Lycanthropy: I feel awoo

Sometimes you just gotta build a nest to shove your idiot Alpha into because they're so busy taking care of others they forget to take care of themselves. You tuck them in tightly and issue a warning growl that they better stay put and relax for fucking once, and you will be back soon with soup because you are very aware they've forgotten to eat again.

And once that meal has been finished, you flop bodily on top of your Alpha, both to ensure they can't run away and the pressure is like a weighted blanket, maybe it will help calm their frantic frazzled mind and let them sleep in peace for once.

You're definitely not letting them escape the nest until they've slept.
