I love the differences in the romances.

Cullen's all soft and adorable when he goes in for the first kiss.

And then there's Cassandra.

Wip game! Gotta ask, whats the thelyss paradox 👀👀👀

hi! thanks for the ask! [wip ask game]

back in 2022 i asked myself “how do you think essek is doing about 350 years down the line?” and proceeded to suffer attempt to answer that question for the next two years

here’s a snippet under the cut — warning for major character death and generally heavy angst

The Blooming Grove is lovely in all seasons, but it truly flourishes in the spring. Tea bushes flower around the graves and the air turns thick with blossoms and new growth. Insects return and bring with them a hum and soft evening glow. Essek will never consider himself pious, but before the Wildmother in all her glory, he appreciates her appeal.  It brings him no small pain that Caduceus will not see it again.  “I’ve seen a lot of springs here,” he tells Essek as they take tea. His voice is low and steady as he speaks, as unhurried and unbothered as ever, and Essek finds himself missing the soothing cadence of it already. He does not leave Caduceus’ bedside often these days. Caduceus leaves his bed even less. Still, he seems content beneath his blankets, cradling a cup and watching a corner of the Grove through the windows. “I’ve enjoyed every single one of them, even the hard ones.”  Essek thinks of Caduceus’ lilies, his dark years before the Nein, and wonders if their effects are partially responsible for bringing his life to a close now. By a firbolg’s measure, Caduceus is quite old, but not yet ancient, after all. He knows it is an idle thought at best – he is no cleric – but the chronurgist in him still wonders.  The chronurgist in him wonders about many things, these days.

August 2.18 | Zelena 3.16

[augustsails]

I was really excited to take the ibuprofen PM so I could get a good nights sleep (I still woke up a few times, but quickly fell back asleep. It definitely would have been worse if I didn’t take it) but in the morning light I’m remembering: right, I have a literal sleep disorder. So sleepy medicine at night + my chronic sleepiness = a very sleepy me!! And I’m still sick-ish, which surely isn’t helping.

Saturday Six (Stuff)

Wowwww it's been a while. Can't say that much has been going on, but also it feels like a lot has been going on... That's life, though right?(。-ω-)ﾉ

I've been trying to work, but so far only had on project this month. It seems like I may have to resort to begging on FB A-Fricking-gain, which sometimes works, but not always. Instagram posts don't seem to do anything.(⑅ ‘﹃’ )

Speaking of Instagram, my food posts seem to do OK, but I'm not really gaining followers. Idk how to do that except to do action videos, and yeahhhh, that's just not my style.（’-’*)

Mainly what I've been doing is getting ready for the lesbian wedding in Wales that I'm going to in a few weeks! Much excite. I'm fixing to be very Sapphire aka Pantsuit Sapphic gay mom!“ψ(｀∇´)ψ

My parents are being wicked douchers again. So what's new? Only they're going out in public (dad with no mask) with full on Covid. Ughhhh. So gross. They're just lucky they didn't get us sick. Especially with my trip coming up. s(・｀ヘ´・;)ゞ

The rodeo is in town this weekend. And as usual there was the parade out in front of the house this morning. Yee frickin haw. (；-◞౪◟-)

Little things that improved my life 𝜗𝜚˚⋆

Accepting my sleep schedule. I'm a night owl; I focus at night, I'm calm at night, I'm motivated at night. For a long time, I tried to fight this since everyone always preaches getting up early, but since I started accepting my natural sleep schedule, I've been feeling a lot better and have become way more productive.

"drink more water". TEA. Tea is the secret here. I will be honest, I hate drinking water; it doesn't matter if I have a cute water bottle or a cute glass, I still hate it. TEA.

Replying quickly. I used to be one of those people who get a text message and think, "Oh, I'll reply to that later", and then just forget about it entirely. Now, I text back as soon as I see the message. This has not only improved my texting anxiety (which I cause on my own by now replying and then feeling bad) but also deepened my connection to my friends. <3

Keeping my circle small and being okay with that. Over the past months, I've had this sudden urge to expand my social circle and get to know more and more people, especially after I moved in August. However, this quickly ended in what I like to call my "social burnout". I was tired, annoyed, and overwhelmed. It took a few weeks for it to settle, but I've come to the conclusion that I would much rather have a smaller circle of people who I trust and love deeply than a huge group of friends, and that's totally okay.

Wearing what I like. Even though I live in a big city, I'd still say that my style can sometimes be a bit more extravagant than what most people wear, another point is that I'm very uncomfortable with pants so I only wear skirts, which is also considered a bit odd where I live. But over the past years, I've come to accept that and have become so sure of myself and found such comfort in my style that I now just wear whatever I like, and it makes every day a little bit nicer.

Reading and writing for pleasure. Reading books outside of my studies and spending time researching topics that simply interest me is such a great way to calm your mind. Same for writing, I always like to say that to write is to think; putting your thoughts on paper in cohesive and well-crafted sentences that you can then reread and think over again is such a liberating thing to do.

Reaching out more. fuck the whole "double texting" and "no contact" thing. If you want to speak to someone because they mean something to you, then just do it. Unless they specifically asked for space, you shouldn't feel bad about wanting to be in touch with them. Many even really appreciate it when you show that you truly care. Let's stop the nonchalant act, and instead, let's face deep emotions and true vulnerability. <3

As always, please feel free to share your own little insights and things that helped you improve comments! <3
