Hey found this if recently non-surprisingly and fell in love. As an older sibling myself the option to just jump in after Willow with no regard for yourself hit so hard, reminded me of a time when my little sister got herself in a precarious situation and my brotherly instincts kicked into overdrive. The whole I’ve gotta make sure they’re ok at the detriment to oneself. Especially if you don’t even have a good relation with your sibling, it speaks to complicated dynamics and familial expectations which is delicious. I’m absolutely looking forward to the whole mystery and horror, your writing is a delight!
Ahhh tysm for this ask, it's lovely 😭
I have my own share of brotherly instinct stories in regards to my younger siblings so I absolutely feel you haha. I'm glad that part could resonate!!
And yeah complicated family relationships my beloved. MC might not LIKE Willow but that instinct runs deep. Sibling relationships are like narrative catnip to me I can't resist. I'm very excited to keep exploring their dynamic as the story continues ^.^
I'm glad you're enjoying the writing!! I can't wait to dig deeper into the mystery and the horrors, as well <3
#asks#willow#tysm again this made me smile#fun fact fell into lake superior one time going after one of my siblings who got stuck in a rock#thankfully the worst part was my converse getting all wet 😔#honestly probably shouldn't have been wearing them on a hike#but such is the life of a teenager lmao

Winter Sunset by James Marvin Phelps Via Flickr: Winter Sunset Sand Point Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore Munising, Michigan A winter sunset at Sand Point in Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore is a breathtaking display of nature's artistry. As the sun dips toward the horizon, its golden light dances across the icy cold expanse of Lake Superior, casting a warm glow on the snow-covered shoreline. Overhead, the sky transforms into a masterpiece of colors, blending deep purples and indigos with the soft pastels of twilight. The tranquil sound of the waves beneath the ice and the crisp winter air create an almost ethereal atmosphere, inviting you to pause and soak in the serene beauty of this magical moment.

Some pictures I took in Acadia/Bar Harbor, Maine, unedited ❤️ It was very Assassin's Creed aesthetic
#//personal#assassin's creed 3#assassin's creed rogue#//#honestly ubisoft didn't do the landscape justice imo#ONE DAY i'm going to get to Nova Scotia/Terra Nova oh my god i want to go there so badly#but for now Maine is the closest I'm getting without a passport#tbh New England isn't that different from Wisconsin they are essentially identical#unless you're like a rock or plant expert but to me it just felt like Lake Superior country

Have You Ever Seen Anything So Blue?
[Reposted from Grant's Cohost page]
This August, as I walked a gravel trail toward Au Sable point, I thought about the change in the people of northern Michigan. We drove to the trailhead along a county road that dips in and out of the jagged border of Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. The inhabited parts outside show the pivot of an economy based on mining and fishing to one based on selling lunches and renting kayaks to people curious about historic mining and fishing. And for a second, I fell into the romantic thought that no matter how life changes, it's the same rocks and the same trees.
This is false. As I discovered on last year's trip, the vital thing to remember is how everything is constantly changing. The composition of the now-protected forest is permanently changed by the logging industry. And without that logging industry, the dune at Log Slide Overlook continues to grow taller and forever cover the spot where logs were slid to the lake. The people, the rocks, and the trees are all changing, all the time. The hope is that they change together, and can support one another. The National Park service is something I believe in.
But the lake, god willing, is forever. I remember last year, sitting in the cabin my aunt rented, watching the sky dim out the window, as the lake grew darker and darker. The waves seemed to spread in every direction. The biggest thing I've ever seen and it was growing, pushing beyond the boundary of the shore. I was a few dozen feet away, up a small hill, behind a window, and there are moments I thought I might fall in from my seat on the couch. I've lived on the Great Lakes and the waterways that connect them most of my life, but Superior is somehow different.
There is no center and no end. None you can perceive. There is only breadth and depth and expanse and blue. It's commerce and wilderness and ecosystem and postcards. Storms and harbors. Constant sound in variable volume. To see, every day, an accident of glacial geology that bore a wonder of creation, to know it supported centuries of history, and eat its fish fried in the back of a truck. Have you ever seen anything so blue?
