Its hard to do everything, its hard. I dont know how to talk about it. Ot anything ive been experiencing orfeeling or reliving. I dont know what to do. Everything I do feels wrong, in some way. I feel like all ive done is be a source of misery. Its not just me. I dont know.

god, imagine if jean claude just starts dropping lore here and there to the uprooted gang about cuttlefish sweepstakes and never explains it

For example:

Booker: Where can we go next? Everyone is trying to kill us!

Jean Claude: I can see if my 'friend' The Walrus is still alive. If I survived the death game, he probably did too! I'll write him a letter

Bitsy: What kind of animal is The Walrus? Is he an otter?

Jean Claude: he was, or is, a beaver! If I'm not mistaken, he lives up in Grizzlepaw.

Grumley: how would you know that? You don't know if he's even alive...

Peggy: *gasp* Is 'The Walrus' a fake name? Is he evil? I heard that walruses live in the ocean and eat woodland critters.

Booker: I feel like we're brushing over the whole death game thing, but I really don't want to get into it.

Or something like that

something I find especially entertaining about Edward IV's reign is how Scandalous™ it was lol

he married a woman “whose origins broke all established conventions for English queenship” in a secret ceremony without consulting any of his lords and then made it everyone else's problem. he committed regicide, he committed fratricide; he was accused of bastardry, he was accused of bigamy and a 19-year-long sham marriage, he was accused of using necromancy against his subjects, he was accused of being enchanted by witchcraft by both his wife and his mother-in-law (multiple times). his own mother was said to "rule the king as she pleased" in the early years of his reign. he knew he was hot and actively milked it for money. he was vain as fuck: “he was wont to show himself to those who wished to watch him, and he seized any opportunity that the occasion offered of revealing his fine stature to onlookers”. he knew everything about everyone. "he was more favourable than other princes to foreigners". he was “fond of boon companionship, vanities, debauchery, extravagance and sensual enjoyments”; he was "thought to have indulged in his passions and desires too intemperately”; "it was ever feared he was not chaste”. his subjects publicly gossiped about his sex life, his doctors thought he was insane. NOBODY understood how he was still competent despite all this.

honestly, who was doing it like him?

talking to english teachers about my favourite books is mortifying sometimes because the moment i mention that i like maurice by e.m forster they immediately respond with "oh you should read *insert novel here*, it has..... homoerotic undertones". why do all my english teachers know i'm gay
