just had a fucking realization. i named the primary location where the AU happens, "Telestrata". i was thinking to myself, "ok so it's 'tele' as in 'far', and 'strata' as in 'stratum', to represent the distant and vertical layout of the region".

and i just now. right this minute. remembered that Aventurine's full title is "Aventurine of Stratagems" and i don't know what i'm supposed to do with this. this is a genuine coincidence but it's also forcing me to think about the implications!! and i HATE thinking!!

#no i don't i just have a lot to juggle already lol #i feel like i can just... let it mean nothing and it's FINE #but if someone else did get into the AU and made the extremely obvious connection they might go #“oh shit i wonder what it means!”#i'll tell you what it means. it means i'm a moron #does anyone even know what a stratagem IS?#that's another wiki crawl for another day #still don't know why the sskies world chose trains instead of the boats they were already using #does that mean London had train tracks? did they have locomotives running through the Neath?#wait did they invent trains in the Neath just to fly? but then they still have wheels. huh #i hope if i ever write and publish a mildly popular work of fiction. there will be a teen out there somewhere creating an insane AU #and they'll be going on their own deranged rant in the tags wondering wtf i was doing
