#the forge of days

I work at a dry cleaner, so I don't think my work resembles that of carpentry or locksmithing whatsoever. Nonetheless, I had THE DREAM.

This is what you get for taking blurry photos of the Wolf Moon, stuff yourself with extra spicy Szechuan fried chicken, and go to bed early.

So I present to you a terrible surrealist poem that I've written about / was dictated to me in the Secret Histories inspired dream I had last night:

Knock is the question. The Three Ladies are each an answer.

One is the Moon, One is a Serpent. And the Oldest of the Three is of both natures.

I am out of joint and have been stirred up, made to be a Name of The Moon. I must divide The Two Who Are One and unite that which is Divided.

And rain. Everywhere there is rain as I sit in the doorway.

The Beachcomber guides the way, and as the crow rests in my hands it becomes both the cross and the key. Now it is I that becomes the secret keeper, the voyeur.

With it I travel through places that are made from my memories. But my memories they are no longer.

Places in my hometown that I know are not real. Places that I have never been.

I break through brick walls and move backwards in alleyways. I fly not through the air but through the solids of wood and concrete.

There is a sauna where The Forge and The Grail meet. Bodies are made glowing gold and gleaming bronze by wet fire and the molten impacts of people's copulations.

There is a warehouse whose windows are shattered and whose doors are long missing. Now it is a church for a God of commerce and production who never came.

It is night time as I run through something that was made from bits of my city's college campus. There is snow in the air but no clouds in the sky, only stars and the jeweled eyes of insects.

I fight monsters that resemble the ones from children's games but I know that they are not. For when she is inside The Moon, the Mother births more than just snakes and ants.

I meet a pair of women, I do not know if they are sisters or lovers. The bolder of the Two steals something precious from me, I try to bribe her but she does not return what she stole.

Then I remember that I am the dreamer and she is the dream. Thus I rip out each one of her veins, with my beak, or perhaps with my fangs and jaws.

Now I am that Sister and I stand in an opera box that resembles a cell padded with black leather and latex. The show I watch does not reveal the performer's gender, even though they dance completely naked.

I converse with a babe in a restaurant that does not exist but I remember it. We talk of salads and I know this is a test from the Goddess of Childbirth.

I sit naked in a chair on my front lawn as I watch my family try and save cats and dogs from drowning. There is so much rain and I cannot move.

I understand that there is a third time that is neither day nor night with neither sun nor stars to rule it. Only clouds, and rain, and the Moon that is both with me and within me.

And then I wake up.........

I love how Bruce tells Duke to guard the Cave & Duke goes "Yes, sir. You got it. Not a single goddamm person is getting into this Cave." Like he takes it so seriously that when the GREEN LANTERN shows up, Duke doesn't think "Hm. He probably has a good reason for being here. Maybe I should ask him?"

No.

He DROPKICKS HIS ASS.

It's so weird that when 99% of fandoms take away a character's chest hair to make them more appealing, Arcane is the only fandom I've seen to give Jayce Talis chest hair to make him more appealing when he canonically doesn't have any

Technicality and non-binary Data for the win

Image ID below the cut

[ID: a four panel comic in grey scale with yellow accent colors for Geordi and Data's uniforms. The first panel is of Geordi and Data holding hands with Geordi in front of Data, leading him forward. Geordi, in response to their hand holding, says "No homo tho" and "lol". Data is looking down at their linked hands. The background is a light shade of grey.

The second panel is a headshot of Data at a 3/4th angle looking left at Geordi, who is offscreen. He says " Geordi, seeing as though I am an android, I am neither male or female, nor do I identify as either one." The background is a plain grey.

The third panel is a headshot of Geordi at a 3/4th angle looking right at Data, who is offscreen. He responds with a simple "oh?" The background is white with an ombre greyscale halftone going from a white to a deep grey.

The fourth panel is of Geordi and Data heavily making out, Geordi's mouth open and Data with his tongue out, both of them blushing and panting. Geordi pinned against a wall with his legs around Data's waist, his left hand on his back and his right hand squeezing his butt. Data has his right hand on Geordi's back lifting up his work uniform and exposing his back, his right hand holding up Geordi's body from his butt. Data has his left leg between Geordi's legs to hold him up, his right leg pulled back to stable them where they stand. They are against a greyscale background with white sparkles around them. /End ID.]

"All we get is a chance. We don't get a benison. He was chained to an anvil for seven years. He should get his chance, don't you think?"
