"Get up. You're pathetic. And weak. You call yourself a warder? Who would trust you with their life?" The elf looked busted up, broken, but they got up still, struggling slightly. Justice waited patiently as they stood, only to knock them down once more as they'd barely held up their sword. "Get out of here. Go water some plants in the Dawn Court, you may be useful, there." As the elf turned away, Justice grinned, "See? He's a good friend. I'm really enjoying this time together. Do you think he'll come back soon or make me wait another month?"

when the flow is ceasing

[For the ancient physicians] "there is, of course, a time more favorable than others in the woman's cycle. Not during menstrual evacuation, which constitutes a kind of natural vomiting, when the semen runs the risk of being swept out as well. Nor when the flow has completely stopped: the uterus, desiccated and chilled, is then no longer in a condition to receive the seed. The favorable time is when the flow is ceasing, so that the uterus is still moist with blood and permeated with warmth, and hence turgescent with a craving to receive the sperm. This craving, which reappears in the body after purgation, is manifested in the woman by a desire that disposes her to sexual intercourse."

—Michel Foucault, from The History of Sexuality, Vol. 3: The Care of the Self

Speaking of coins, I think it's neat that we have a trinity of Apollos with uncommon characteristics:

Apollo Karneios with ram horns and ram ears, Apollo Soranus with a star diadem and a pick-axe and Apollo Vejovis with winged head, a trident and a dagger. (The last two are the results of his syncretism with Roman deities)

What's more fun about the coins of Apollo-Vejovis is that some of them put a thunderbolt under his bust or straight up show him holding it:

And I can't help but think of this being equivalent to a girl wearing her mom's makeup for the photo day

Story Word Count: 4,534 words

Story Summary: Growing up, Hinoka came up with many pictures of what her life would look like, but being the wife of the ex-princess Camilla Soranus was a possibility that never crossed her mind. Parenting a six-year-old daughter alongside her, even less so. The things we picture for our futures often turn out differently than we expected, and nobody knows that better than Hinoka, because these two girls are some of the most precious things she could ever have dreamed of having… Even if they do try to rope her into their own kind of trouble, every once in awhile.

[motheatenscarf]

Before I ditch this game for like a year or longer to get into FF14, I need to know once and for all which one of these dingdongs was the best lookin.

Feel free to reblog even if u don't know what SWTOR is or who my dumb characters are, I'm just excited I finally got polls even if I have nothing of substance to contribute!

I got the Sartauvoir duel to 33% this time! Prog!!!! I'd kept dying to the damned backdraft. I think if I go get some more DPS honors and take Aetherweaver instead of Templar I might be able to kill it before the second Phenex.

"I don't cause scenes. I end them." The rest of Soranus' words were simply placed in the back of his mind, because fighting was truly work. Everything else was meaningless. Except for Soranus' hobbies, those he would allow. If anyone ever so took a step in their direction when Soranus was weaving, or he was busy, Justice would appear and remind them never to approach them ever again. Sometimes it worked out, other times Soranus got upset – too many mixed signals. Their emotions were so intertwined it was easy for the revenant to pick up on subtle shifts, anyway. "You know where to find me if you need me." It wasn't like he wouldn't be watching, anyway, daring someone to bump into them. He loved Christmas.

A subtle shift in the spirit's features saw the elf return to the surface once more as revenant and dawn traded places back and forth. The two making their way through the forest of the fey as they did; it was an enchanting place, one that reminded him distantly of the forests of Eden where he and Justice would find ways to pass the time together. Simple games between friends, though the revenant would never admit to as much. How things had changed, now they walked over an earthen tomb that long buried ancient bones.

"You do the fighting: the only thing you consider real work." Their home, what it had been filled with, and the labours of the court were Soranus' domain. There was Meryasek's wedding gift to attend to as well, something that Soranus had been painstakingly weaving for months now. "There's a party on Christmas night, Justice are you going to cause a scene if we go?"

Creator’s note: Having sweets as a way to celebrate a victory after a battle was a great way to spend time with the others.

In the name of wip Wednesday, here's a chunk of my Sart/Basch phoenix AU fic which is proving to be much longer than I expected!! This section is from Basch's POV, after he's been revived by Sartauvoir, who is in a very bad way due to the consequences of his spell. Theodaire is my Garlean chief medicus NPC, not a canon character!

[infernooftheivth]

Menenius: If there's going to be a big dramatic scene, wait until I get back. Sartauvoir: Of course. I can't flip this table by myself.
