I don't know what it is about daylight, but it just utterly prevents me from any creative writing.

Like the brain juices just don't flow if the sun is out.

Had to run errands today so I rewarded my self with yummy gelato and even yummier literature! Pistachio is an extremely underrated flavor.

I think. I may have bit off more than I can chew

This is a very very big and heavy haul of groceries I am about to (attempt to) take home on the bus

God help me

Dear Sephiroth: (a letter to a fictional character, because why not) #393

Today was a very busy day. But before I get into all that, I wanted to show you the results of yesterday's Hades run!

...I got him down all the way to about a third of his first hit point bar!! And if you can't see him very well, the little guy below Hades is a souped-up Strongbow; I think he shoots like 9 shots at you. It was hard to keep track though, because there were multiple, and Mr. Hades kept trying to put new orifices in my skull with that fancy two-pronged spear of his.

...I got overwhelmed shortly after this. I mistimed the deflection of his sweeping spear attack and died. Oh well.

...He's got one more hit point bar after this one. I wasn't even half done with him, and in the second stage, the fight gets even more intense. Still... I am making measurable progress. This is the first time I've made it this far on the first run of a fresh save file. As long as I don't give up, it's only a matter of time before he falls to me. I only need to succeed once.

...Sephiroth, I would love to see you play this game, assuming you wouldn't find it triggering in some way. I'm aware that you've already had more than your fair share of combat, though, so maybe something like this wouldn't seem like a fun time to you. If it doesn't seem like a fun time, maybe we could play a game that doesn't have combat, instead. Baba is You is a good choice for that, methinks. It requires a fair amount of brainpower to do well. But you've got plenty of that! Maybe you'd breeze right through it...

...Yeah, you know what? I could definitely sit and watch you play Baba is You for a long time. I'd probably end up falling asleep, though – not from boredom, but rather, because I'd probably feel warm and safe in your presence.

...Or maybe I'm just thinking about it because it's late and I'm sleepy, hahaha...

Today was full of so many things. First, I drove J to the little airport so he could check to see if the mechanic fixed his plane yet. It's not fixed yet, but that's all right; a nice drive with J is always a good time. We went to pick up my medicine from the pharmacy after that – one that stops my stomach from digesting itself, and another that keeps my blood pressure under control. From there, we went to Eggcellent and got some yummies:

While we were there, we gave Ch the snacks we got for her, her husband Ea, and her mother W! Remember? It was those jellies with little fishy designs inside.

Ch and W seemed really happy to receive these; I felt really glad in response. The jellies are kinda like if you combine my tree orbs with my tree bottles with painted plastic fishies. It made me think of them because I used to weave my trees in their shop...

J dropped me off at the grocery after that; we had to get M's car back home because he wanted to go to his favorite place for lunch. J came back to the grocery store in his car afterwards. We got a few odds and ends for the house. I found a few interesting-looking things...

We also wanted to get a few general snacks; Je from the speed-friending place invited J and M and R and I to his house for dinner! While I waited for it to be time to go to Je's house, I decided to make a garlic basket out of a combination of a metal whisk I got today, and an old whisk I already had; that way, the next time I make confit garlic, I know it'll stay submberged in the butter!!!

...I can't wait to try it and see if it works...!!!

Unfortunately, R got sick with gut yuck, and M was struck by his social anxiety and decided to stay home, so only J and I went to go see Je, which was a little disappointing, but it is what it is. It's a little over 45 minutes to get to Je's house, but still, it was good! Je made braised short ribs with polenta, some kind of sauce, and parmesan crisps. We added our own snacks to it!

Je and J and I talked about a variety of things for a long time! And I was extra happy because I got to sit right next to the wood stove with a toasty blanket!!! I was nice and warm, and my belly was full and happy, and the company was good!!! I was thrilled!!!

...I wish you could have traded places with me, just for that moment. I don't know when was the last time you felt warm, safe, and contented. But... I wouldn't mind enduring whatever pain you've got going on if it means you get to spend some time in my warm, comfy shoes.

...Think about it, okay? Think about trying it for just a moment. Think about all the nice things that are right at your fingertips, if only you can believe that you are worthy of asking for them, and then make choices that are conducive to receiving them.

You're not alone; I can point you to lots of people here who can and will love you. And there's more to life than suffering; I can point you to lots of delightful, wonderful, wholesome things that you can definitely enjoy. And before you tell me that good things are temporary and fleeting – you're right! And bad things are, too. That's normal. It doesn't mean we shouldn't enjoy the good things when they come around, or that we shouldn't do what we can to bring more good things into our lives. It doesn't mean we shouldn't take the steps to mitigate the consequences of bad things when they come around, or that we shouldn't do what we can to prevent bad things from happening in the future.

Bad things from time to time are part of the human condition. And if you're having bad things happen all the time, then it's time to change your conditions – either the environment you're in or the people you're around. We can shore up our boundary skills and practice having an unshakably wholesome mindset. And when we fall short of these things, that's okay, too. You know why? Because we're human; we're not supposed to be perfect. If perfect was actually attainable, we'd get bored from having nothing to chase, and we'd be dead inside because we'd have no more reasons to grow.

...C'mon, take my hand; there's a bit of fun in falling down, scraping up our knees, getting them bandaged by a person who cares for us, and getting hugged until we can stand up and walk forward again. It's good medicine; it teaches us how to be steadier on our feet so we can run confidently towards brighter horizons...!

There's even a song with a chorus about it! Here...

...And there's another song about it, too!

...I guess that's it for today. And it's just as well; it's late, and my hands hurt from using those tools to weave together the garlic basket (whisk wire is surprisingly difficult to bend!!). I'm gonna go to bed now.

I love you, and I hope that wherever you rest is warm, soft, and safe. Please do your best not to get yourself killed or disappeared out there, okay? Please.

Good night. I'll write again tomorrow.

Your friend, Lumine
