Then why did you leave me? . . . If I'm so vulnerable, if you knew it'd go wrong, why the fuck would you let that happen to me?

i loved the part of the book where piranesi resolves to take better care of himself while he's rediscovering his own history. he just has so much compassion for himself! the journal upsets him so he takes a week off and does things he enjoys and then he settles into a safe place when he wants to tackle the subject again. and he doesn't believe The Other when he's told about his amnesia! he values his own insights and his own knowledge of the House even when fucking ketterley is actively trying to undermine his sense of self. piranesi's gentle treatment of himself and the person he used to be is genuinely so moving.

no bc when you stop and think about the full implications of fitz and the fool calling each other “beloved” you do have to go a little crazy. it’s required. because what do you mean that 6 sentences after fitz thinks, “being fitz had never been that enticing an existence” the fool summons him back to himself by calling him “beloved” and renewing their bond. what do you mean fitz refers to this as “burning my identity into me.” what do you mean “the word echoed through me, rebounded me from my fraying edges, found and bound me.” what do you mean. are you not going insane.

You and I, we're not tied to the ground
Not falling, but rising, like rolling around
Eyes closed above the rooftops
Eyes closed, we're gonna spin through the stars
“You and Me”, Dave Matthews Band
so psyched to share this piece I commissioned from the wonderful @aspic31 ! your incredible work really brought this Vah’nya design to life in a way no description could do justice, and hopefully this rarest of pairs will get a little more attention.
Vah’nya’s animated appearance is based loosely on my dream cast for her voice actor, Ayo Edebiri! She’s fantastically talented and I think she would play really well against Tiya Sircar’s Sabine (and I would love to get Miss Ayo “adult yoda is fucking busted” Edebiri in Star Wars, somehow).

I go through life thinking I've got the moral scrupulosity under control--then one thing changes (cooking habits) I say "Ohhh I'm using more cleaning supplies these days, this is terrible, if only I weren't cooking more often, with so many more ingredients, I wouldn't be cleaning so much. So much rinsing things between steps. Washing out more pots and pans than ever. Aluminum foil usage going up, paper towel usage increasing..."
And I have to take myself by the shoulders and say, listen. Babe. I don't know how else to say this.
Making and eating better meals is a good thing.
