Ribbit.

Ribbit.

Stares at you from the shelves.

Did you teleport up there, or are you just a very very quick leaper?

I know it's a magic frog, this is Xadia. But... which arcanum?

I'm nearly the end of Baldur's Gate 3 and I'm so so in love with this game already. My cleric can talk to animals and I thought I'd talk to like, the occasional bear but I ended up chatting with pretty much EVERY critter I saw?? How cool is that? Also, even if I choose to romance Lae'zel (god, she's everything) I love the weird polyamorous vibe we got from all the companions lol in my head they're just all in love with each other, it's basically canon to me lol did you have fun as well?

i had a lot of fun, too!

what really made me emotional while playing was how well the story and interaction really fit with the character i had created a long, long time ago even before the early access version of the game came out:

my eilistraee cleric altonaufein.

it's so rare that an original character fits so well within a story: from the themes of his arc, to the romance option (gale, in his case), to the dream guardian that i could headcanon feasibly as a very important person to altonaufein and have it just mesh so well with the backstory i had already created for him. the companions -- particularly karlach and halsin as well as lae'zel and wyll -- that became such great and trusted friends to him.

but not only that, just the general attention to detail in the game: the beautifully crafted environments, the gorgeous soundtrack that i'm listening to even when i don't find myself playing the game, just the atmosphere of it all and the intriguing overarching narrative.

i think it's as close as perfect to me, personally, as it can get as a game.

That's mattdrai after all stars where leon is insisting that the 'get off the ice' comment was actually an inside joke between them and that he and matthew are really friends. In fact, they're dating!!

okay this IS making me think of like. leon insisting so hard he was joking, he was Not Riled Up, he is cool and chill with matthew tkachuk and definitely not taking things too personally (a barrel of lies). he ends up trying so hard to prove how chill and cool he is that it tips into like. is he flirting? it could be flirting if witnessed by objective outsiders. only he's in so deep that by the time it gets to the point where it's like, put up or shut up, well he has to put up, right? because he's so cool with matthew! so chill! sure they can make out a little! sure they can do some light groping! sure they can get so worked up that it's like, get a room or get a bucket of water dumped on you.

and maybe that night of the weekend they don't manage to get a room but the next -- well. leon can't back down NOW. that wouldn't be chill at all.

I got the Lego Star Wars game for the Switch recently. I didn't get it because I actually like Star Wars (I don't, I tend to be mostly but not completely disinterested in Sci-fi), I got it because I like Lego games for their easy controls and gameplay and stuff.

But this game has awful controls. This Lego Star Wars game has all new controls and they're so much worse. I couldn't bring myself to play past the first level, so now I have to make a vent post about it. It's a shame too, since I genuinely thought it'd be a good game. Apparently not. Sigh...

“these characters should be mentally healthy before they get together 😌” ummm no I actually think we should smash their mental illnesses together like clumps of play-doh and see what colors it makes

she's singing in another room and my dog is asleep at my feet. my grandma asked me why i haven't found a man yet and i laughed. oh, you know. i like my house clean.

my girlfriend is also my man is also "my partner" if i'm in a professional setting. yesterday we went to a ren faire and a man mimed at me - you're together? and at my delighted nod, his baffled, you're gay? made me laugh. a woman with rainbow hair said i love the two of you together. you're both so beautiful it's absurd.

my dad introduced my partner as my "..... friend. or whatever" the other day. he knows we're dating. in the same way, i was never able to get my sister's husband to stop saying that's gay like it's 2008. he still uses the word fa***t, and my sister's defense of him has always been well, he's just kidding.

my lover and i dance to old music in a tiny kitchen. we judge new music together and take food critique very seriously. we watch love is blind before we fall asleep and agree that if they had a queer season, it would be bloody but also make for excellent tv. of fucking course queer people would know someone for only 2 weeks and agree to get married. what are you saying.

at a bar with friends, a man puts his hand on my wrist. got a boyfriend? and yes, i do have a boyfriend, she's amazing. i am texting her while i wander around a gas station named after geese. i am visiting a swing state for a wedding. in the candy aisle i overhear: she's actually like a lesbian it's disgusting. two teenage girls with packaged sandwiches in their hands, giggling. no literally, like. i'm not, like. okay with her being there while we're all, like, naked and changing.

my girlfriend and i tailgate, drink gin and cider out of cups. from the frat group beside us, a man corrects himself with one of his friends: bro, i mean, nonbinary entity, and it makes everyone around him laugh, myself included. he razzes his friend the same way i would have killed for at 19 years old - like nothing happened, he continues: you apply sunscreen like an alien. he does a little sassy (and fairly accurate) dance interpretation of the motion. his friend is laughing so hard they're crying.

i am lucky, i live in a safe neighborhood in a safe state. my masc passenger princess comes up from DC. i drive her for an hour to where all the leaves are a violent arrangement of color. we walk along the trails, letting autumn into our blood. in this part of the state, there's a lot of pickup trucks and trump signs. when we chastely kiss before getting into the car, i accidentally make eye contact with a woman holding her child's wrist. she looks disgusted. she looks fucking pissed.

two hours later my girl and i are eating dinner on a patio, soaking in the last warmth of new england sun before the chill of winter sets in. we are giggling and trying to talk through plastic vampire teeth. at another table, i see a young woman sit up straighter. i watch her watch us. she blushes and takes her partner's hand from across the table. shy, like the taste of evening has just become something deeper.

it's worth it for this moment, i think. my lover is still humming the same song she's been singing for four days straight and i don't want to kill her for it. her guitar is beside my bed. her toothbrush is in my bathroom. in a few moments i will make us lunch. we are lucky enough to have found each other. it is lucky enough to be in love.

Every spectrum–related cause I've ever picked up usually has always had similar results.

Realise I'm leaning towards a side.

Get comfortable in the middle ("neutrality, amirite?").

Suddenly lean to the other side ("are you living if you're not a little polarising?").

Quit the spectrum.

Lose belief in humanity. Again.

@crystalflygeo fffffffffuck those ARRRRMMMSSS 😵‍💫 his dick glows, crys. HIS DICK!! 💀

ー 🔸// Zhongli BR #4

⌗; archon(?) zhongli, his dick glows. ⌗; i had the thought and yes. i needed to write it. 18+ only please.

Zhongli who's aware of how much you love his hands and arms, he notices the way your eyes linger a bit too long on them. honestly, you can't help yourself when he purposely teases you.

Zhongli loves pushing his fingers into your mouth whenever he gets the chance while you two are doing the deed. the way you cover his digits with your saliva, the way you suck on them so obediently, he loves the way he doesn't even have to order you to suck them.

Zhongli's cock is pretty much the same as his arms/hands. from the tip near the base, it glows dimly but is brightest at the tip.

Zhongli who loves it when you use your mouth on him. he likes when you take your time but sometimes, he likes to use a bit of... force. despite the impatience, he's still gentle. he can't get enough of how he sinks into your mouth... he places both of his hands in your hair slowly making you take him further.

Zhongli loves pretty much any position where he can watch as he pushes himself inside you. even if it may be a bit embarrassing, he assures you that this is one of the best sights he's ever seen.

Zhongli isn't the type to rush things, he takes his time as he slowly pushes himself further, enjoying the warmth of you snug around him. His thrusts are slow and hard, making sure you feel every inch of him as he pulls out and slides right back in.
