#I should probably go to bed soon

[quibbs126]

My brain’s now on the idea of making a honey based kingdom, I’m just struggling with their gimmick and real world basis

They probably have bee motifs, but that’s a given, and it’s somewhat my jumping off point

Time period wise, I’m debating between either a futuristic motif (since hexagons can be associated with futuristic technology), or medieval Europe (that’s when those old beekeeper suits are from and also swords could be a substitute for stingers), though that’s not to say I’m not open to any other options

I also don’t know how to incorporate the whole beehive thing in to how they structure their towns. Is the capital like this giant beehive they all live in? Do they make hexagonal shaped rooms that can attach to one another to create easy building, sort of like the cube buildings in Hateno Village? How far does the beehive/honeycomb thing extend, is it just the capital/castle or is this standard fare among the whole country?

And then there’s the gimmick. One idea is that they’re incredibly advanced in the medical field, and/or in housing, but that’s more tied in with the potential futuristic theming. If I go more medieval, I’m not sure what to do

One of the only things I do have is that I think I’ve figured out the other flavors that might live here, that being other syrup Cookies like maple syrup, as well as pancake based Cookies. Since I’m told you can put honey on pancakes and syrup does that as well. Tea based Cookies might also be an option, since I’ve also heard honey is a thing that can be put in tea

I also feel like this should be a very floral place, since flowers are generally how bees make honey. Might clash with a futuristic aesthetic though, since those tend to be very clean and sanitized

Oh also that this is a very female centric society, given how bees work. Maybe it’s not like 90% of the population is female, but they’re at least a matriarchal society

I don’t know, I guess I’m just listing my thoughts, in part because I haven’t actually written them down elsewhere. I have some vague ideas but nothing’s coming together as cleanly as I’d like and I wonder if I’m putting too much thought into it

On one hand, it feels like I shouldn’t ask for advice on this, because I’m trying to make this myself and if we’re being honest, I’m probably gonna forget about it soon anyways, but on the other hand I’m not sure what entirely I should do, and I also wouldn’t really mind getting thoughts on this whole thing

Tune in next time to see what happens at the end of the 'training' montage. I'm sure things are going to stay on 'track' and not 'derail' at all.

Foggy Morning

I think of you like a foggy morning – your presence almost always unexpected yet delightful. You work me into a soft joy that I hide within a screen of mist so dense, unwittingly disguising affection and making it indecipherable to my eyes. I think of you like a foggy morning – settling over me and in my lungs when I am lost inside you. You cloud my eyes, shield me from the sun that threatens my head, and offer me some play – the chance to become a monster, all blood and teeth and torment falling from my lips. I think of you (often) like a foggy morning (in the colder months) – subconsciously waiting for you to come to me.

god today is overwhelming for multiple reasons. firstly its now 10 years past the age i grew up thinking i was for certain going to die. like i dont even know WHY i thought that, i just knew since i was a toddler that i wouldnt be able to survive past that specific age. that day i was in the middle of a long psychotic episode and that felt like confirmation, but then my two close friends at the time pulled me out to pay birthday dinner for me because id gotten so skinny and then dragged me to purikura and that day was so lowkey and ordinary but i think it changed everything and is what helped set me on the track towards recovery. every year since then has been almost humbling and now 10 years later i struggle to comprehend im still alive and have lived THIS long

and i feel like i always sound so dramatic when i talk about these things, especially since i always try to keep all experiences somewhat surface level and not get into any of the really uncomfortable to hear stuff. it makes me unable to ignore the wall for once

god i wasnt even gonna talk about that. anyway, all birthdays are strange but this one a whole lot more than usual, and also a whole lot more than i expected going into it.

im torn between being happy beyond measure for being alive, gutted and heartbroken and crying that this is the first birthday where i wont receive mormors usual phone call, and god, the fact that im crying as much as i did 10 years ago on the dot almost feels hysterically funny to me at the moment DLSÖLGDSÖD

im not sad, i promise. it may sound like that, but im just so overwhelmed by conflicting emotions right now, of joy and glee and sorrow and grief. another year of celebrating unexpected life, another year of mourning what was taken from me, another year of dreading how much is still being stolen before my eyes, and another year of ceaseless optimism that there will be a light at the end of the tunnel no matter what happens. that last part is both a blessing and a curse. talking about these things publically feels as shameful as it feels grounding, and in a sense i feel like it's a way to try and keep myself rooted in reality.

anyway sorry about all this. its only 2 hours in and i just had to get that out of my system. tonight ill be with family for dinner and princess cake and i cannot wait. ill show picture of the cake later just because

I miss Sniper. Its supposed to get easier, but it hasnt. Everytime i feel down, i remember that he used to be the one to place his comforting weight on my chest, stare at me with his big watery eyes, and try to lick my nose to make me laugh. He was so small, but the hole he left in my heart is a cavern, that i doubt will ever be filled. I wasnt able to save him, and now he isnt around to save me, and it hurts.
