90 | Call it copium if you must, but I still think we could be getting more of Yor's backstory soon. This chapter had some content talking about the past and so did the recent Yuri chapter so I still think we could be building towards it.
On a different note, I hope we get to keep the lovey older couple that just moved in next to the Forgers.
I think there's some fun things that can be done with them. I'll admit I'm partial to the idea of someone who is pro Twiyor, but clueless about their relationship being "fake", visiting the Forgers and making a comment about how they can convert the guest room into a baby room when the time is right and these two might just be a good fit for that.

I want Minthara to put my transmasc drow on his knees, holding his face as she contemplates him disparagingly. She sees what was once a 'proud daughter' with such potential, now reduced to nothing better than a toy, an idle plaything for more superior drow women who rose to their fitting station

Hello!
I'm so glad that you're back. I've missed our two idiots (of course), and I've worried about you (of course). I hope that you're well, and that the UK is treating you well.
I treasure your work. Getting the AO3 notification feels like hearing from a friend out of the blue. If there's anything I can do to support, please don't be a stranger.
Anyway, my question: do you fence? Your duel scene absolutely captured the quickness and wit and elegance of fencing and made me look at magical duels in a completely different way!
Thank you so much for your kind words and your well-wishes!
This is probably the most flattering compliment I could get about my dueling scenes. The answer is yes, but I only did it briefly, and a long time ago, so my knowledge is heavily weighted towards vocabulary over practice. I know what things are called, but I was never good enough to get to the higher levels of strategy & technique, so a lot of that bit is spun from whole-cloth. I also follow the advice of a writer whose name I've forgotten, but he basically said that young writers get hung up too much on blow-by-blow action, and forget that they're not choreographing a movie, they're writing a scene — you don't need to describe every move if you can capture how it feels. So I tried to capture the feeling of fencing, which was a high-energy kind of antagonistic dancing.

I see your headcanons of Percy on his school's swim team and raise you:
Percy on his school's fencing team.
He won't feel like he's cheating.
He gets to keep up his swordsmanship (which is a skill he has to practice, not a power).
The team still gets someone who is freakishly good.

I know everyone loves the line-of-diamonds-shaped top surgery scars when they don't want to be realistic on their furries (and i respect it) but hey. hey
i think we can get sillier

I know this is not really the place. But I’m putting this out there for the few people that will see this post
My homeland is under attack.
As of right now, 10/9/23, there are:
1500 Israeli deaths (and counting)
150+ hostages/missing (including infants and toddlers)
2000 Israeli injured (and counting)
560+ Palestinian/Gaza citizens dead
4000+ rockets fired (from hospitals, schools, and neighborhoods in the Gaza Strip toward Israel)
More Jewish people died on Saturday than any one day since the Holocaust.
I am Jewish. Israel is and always will be my home, even though I don’t actually live there. Please, do not turn away from this.
Educate yourself on the situation in as much depth as you can handle. Report and block bots posting “free palestine” and similar things.
This is not an issue of Israel-Palestine conflict. This is a direct attack on Jews, and nobody is safe from the horrors of Hamas and other terrorists. Not even Gaza/Palestine citizens are safe. Please, I beg you, no matter how you feel about Israel as a country… do not add to the hatred by celebrating and supporting terrorism. You can hate Israel, you can want a Palestinian state, you can disagree with whatever you want. But do not encourage senseless violence and murder and war crimes against me for simply existing.

fencing was so good today… i won two matches, lost 11-15, then lost 3-15 and 2-10. figured out that i wasn’t scoring because my hits kept landing flat and did some work with a coach on point control and he called me a crab because my posture sucks 🦀🦀
god i just love this sport so much. i’m learning a lot and having a good time… the coach also asked me if i was interested in competing, and while i don’t think i’m good enough yet, there’s a very chill open comp in september that i think i’m going to work towards.

how long after christmas is it still acceptable to post fluffy christmas fic
asking for a me-shaped friend who's got various Standalone Sections, but some are more done than others, so trying to figure out if I should scrap the less-done sections that need more work in favor of posting sooner, or keep working on all of it until sometime in january
