Trick or treat! I’d love to hear about this asexual caveman project you speak of 👀
thank you!
So admittedly I am being kind of facetious calling them cavemen. The setting is 30,000 years ago in Eastern Europe or Western Asia. Gravettian culture era. And my group mostly doesn’t live in caves (Ice Age people didn’t often live in caves, at best they usually lived in shallow rockshelters, though many also resided in seasonal tents and huts.)
Atm I have my Paleolithic human group spending the winter in anachronistic but badass mammoth bone huts.
Shelters… made of mammoth bones! This was a real thing Ice Age people did!
Image: an archaeological site strewn with the bones of at least 60 mammoths, which were used as the structural supports for tents or huts around 25,000 years ago. Western-ish Russia.
Image: hypothesized reconstruction of a mammoth bone hut from the site of Mezhyrich or Mezhirich, Ukraine, 15,000 years old. This shows exposed bone but it would likely have been covered in hides when it was in use.
My Ice Age protags live in mammoth bone huts in the winter because I think they’re rad. Honestly, one of my difficulties has been trying to decide on a time period setting, because I want Neanderthals (traditionally identified as going extinct 40,000 years ago, but some arguments for pockets of Neanderthals that survived up to 30,000 years ago, which I’m jumping on) but I also want mammoth bone huts (oldest known 25,000 years old, but more of them closer to 15,000 years old.) Mixing the last vestiges of surviving pockets of Neanderthals knowing they’re going extinct without really having a framework for that, and Gravettian Homo sapiens making mammoth bone huts a few thousand years early because they’re trendsetters like that. However, they’re also highly mobile, not living full-time in any location.
They do have a sacred cave for religious activities and initiations. That becomes important later. The sacred cave can also trans your gender if u want it to.

🥰 for the ask meme?
WIP and Published Fics Ask Game (reblog to play and feel free to drop the emojis/questions in the ask box!)
(This ask was sent in November)
🥰 a fluff WIP snippet
I had a lot of trouble finding a fluff snippet but I found a moment!
“Okay,” Rex says, grabbing the bucket that Anakin is admittedly very close to accidentally swinging into a wall. “I’m confiscating this. If you need to scream into something, borrow my helmet.” Anakin takes the helmet and screams into it. The padding actually absorbs the sound better. That’s nice. Rex settles into the seat next to him and pats his shoulder. “You know you’re an idiot, right?” Yes. Anakin is painfully aware of this.

So I’m also reading Anna Karenina right now (for a college class on Russian Lit) and it’s so cool to read your liveblogs because they are SO TRUE AND CORRECT. YES, Konstantin Levin is the perfect man (and his relationship with Kitty is so ridiculously cute)!!! YES, Anna as the “surprised Pikachu” meme when Alexei Karenin finally threatens divorce is perfect! YES, Kitty is 10000% bisexual (I first read part of this book at age 15 and picked up on it even THEN—she so has a little baby crush on Anna and then Varenka)!!!
I seriously wish this book had more of a fandom, and it’s just so fun to see your reactions to it and see that someone else out there shares my love for Kitty & Levin in particular—I can’t wait to see what you think as we both finish the book!!
Hey friend!! I'm so happy my liveblogging amuses you 🥰
My feelings about the book overall were basically "wow this book is named after this one character but there's so much going on around her that has nothing to do with her"
I found Anna to be an annoying character and i definitely think treating her for postpartum depression could have worked wonders. The fact that, after all that, she didn't even love the baby she had with Vronsky is just like 🙃🙃🙃 it's a book about full on clownery at the end of the day. And i really enjoyed the writing style, it felt fun and accessible, but my god this is a very long book with so much in it. It's like six full seasons of The Real Housewives of Moscow.
I do love Kitty and Levin with my whole ass heart though.

So, re: this post, has your American Girl doll Jesse finally satisfied your urge to have a Jesse you can hug and cuddle?
Also, I think I’ve seen you mention a different Jesse doll you own on this blog before, although I could be mistaken…if that’s true, how many Jesses do you have? And may I see pictures of them?
(Also also I am OBSESSED with the crocheted Kyle J. Sugarman in the linked post…homemade one-of-a-kind dolls of a person’s favorite things my BELOVED—and I, too, just love having physical representations of your favorite characters whom you can cuddle and hug 🥲)
it really has satisfied that urge :') its so hard to explain but just being able to wrap both arms around him and hug makes me feel so happy and at peace. hyperfixations for me often involve a huge amount of energy and fixation that can be really difficult to articulate or "get out", especially when i dont have time to make or talk about stuff, so hugging and squeezing a physical representation of it helps "get" some of that energy "out" and gives me that same rush.
and yes, i have another jesse doll 😔 hes cute but not super accurate and not as easy to hug. i also, embarrassingly enough, have a kyle sugarman american girl doll, but he lives back home in my closet storage so i just keep my crocheted one with me always. ive had him for like five years now and never sleep without him. here's some pics of my four dolls 😔

“Incredible” for the WIP guessing game?
Romance had always just been something that may or may not happen to him one day, if the right person came along. It wasn’t that Ranpo was repulsed by it; it was that he wasn’t sure he’d ever find anyone who met his incredibly high standards, and he was plenty happy without it.
from a currently untitled oneshot where ranpo has to tell fukuzawa he's dating someone from the organization that tried to burn yokohama to the ground
#incredibly was the closest i could get skfhjdk#also arospec ranpo is so real to me#tysm for the ask!!#grace's writing tag#ask game#bohemian-rhapsody-in-blue

One of my favorite things that can happen is someone says something like, "Oh, I love that song, it has a bunch of different sections, like Bohemain Rhapsody."
And I get to say, "So it's a... rhapsody."
Like... that's what a rhapsody is, my guy.
Rhapsody in Blue by George Gershwin? Actually also a rhapsody. He didn't lie in the title.
Jesus of Suburbia by Green Day? I'd say... a rhapsody. Even Wikipedia calls it "a punk rock version of Bohemian Rhapsody." You don't have to do this. It's just a rhapsody that is punk rock.
Not to downplay how cool it was that Queen made a modern rhapsody so sick that it's the benchmark. I'm just saying. We can have more rhapsodies.

I know i might have a weird taste for music but i didn't think it was that bad until i gave a lift to my brother and he kept begging be for a normal song after being forced to listen to nyan cat for not even 30 seconds...
And than two trucks started playing...
I just kept skipping through my playlist the whole ride and this is my fun playlist too :((
#my brother has no tastes in music whatsoever so he isnt that good of a reference#but still#the things he made me skip except it progressively gets worse:#any vocaloid songs (because he hates miku for some reason...)#any fnaf songs (because “its not 2018 anymore”)#any lemon demon song (because it has the word demon in the artist name)#any mitsuki song (because he thought it was miku and refused to listen to me saying it was a- not miku and b- serious just like he asked)#any mother mother song because its “boring”???#any of the initial D songs i have (deja vu and running in the 90s) (because i would rash the car for sure)#we didn't start the fire (because it wasnt the marvel version???)#the theme song from one of our childhood shows (because the voice isnt exactly the same as the real thing)#star wars OSTs (cantina band and duel of fates) (because apparently its not serious enough)#any marina song or dollyrots song (because its women singing... i kid you not... hes like “oh its woman it cant be good” istg)#“fairytale” and “europe sky” (because “its not 2020 anymore???)#any song by glass animal (because it started too slow so it was boring)#and other songs like “discord” “my ordinary life” “rasputine” “we dont sleep at night” etc etc because“theyre not real songs#the only song he didn't complain about was mr blue sky... why? because it played in one of his favourite movies#he complained about QUEEN- Like he let it play but he complained about bohemian rhapsody being boring????#my brother is a disappointment to music...#like i feel like leaking the playlist just to prove a point but i trying to not be too petty... i might idk...#like i asked him if he wanted me to switch and put on my heavy metal playlist and he said if i did he was gonna die...#like touch some grass dude-#anyway#music

I choose to believe that if Jaskier had been in that prison cell with Gordon for a while longer, he would have invented Jailhouse Rock by Elvis Presley.
#he's ahead of his time okay#jaskier#the witcher#gordon#joey batey#with time gordon could have become almost as good a muse as geralt perhaps#maybe folsom prison blues would also exist#perhaps even bohemian rhapsody#are these all songs from my playlist for my jaskier-and-yen-are-cellmates au? maaaaybe#wren talks

#blue sky is my bohemian rhapsody#like. i also cry like a baby and belt to bohemian rhapsody but you know#smb
