Read ur tag and... time to ask....

"Anything?"

I'll see myself out

when i was a child i lived in a neighborhood with jacaranda trees. the soft, purple flowers would fall and decorate the floor like snow. when the sun would set, the orange glow upon me and the flowers would feel like something in a daydream. i fell in love with the colors of the sunset. i would intentionally take my time walking home, just to walk through the neighborhood a little slower. when the sun would begin to set, it felt like time itself was paused for me and only me.

but even as time passed, i would pick up the jacarandas and put them in my room, in my hair, in my pockets and clothes. it complemented and reminded myself of who i was, even when i did not know the answer to that question at the time. the colors of the sunset became the colors of my childhood. my synesthesia made it taste like something out of a dream. i needed more. i wanted more. my room was painted with lavender walls. colors of purple with warmth became my paradise.

but then, tragedy struck.

my indulgence for the colors became more evident, i began to express myself, visually, vocally, loudly, with the colors of the flame. bright. bold. fire. i became what i endeared the most - i became warm. and warmer. bright. and brighter. dangerously alive. i was a flame that could not be extinguished. until - my mother would tell me, 'you are like a flame. it is bright now, but it will die out.'

'you will grow up to be alone.'

'miserable.'

little did she know. fire that has been extinguished, can be ignited once again. the tragedy is not what my mother had told me, but the tragedy of her failing to realize who i was. who i am.

so, who am i, my dear reader? i am the fire. the ash. and the breath of the flame. i am everything. i am anything.

anything? you ask.

yes. anything.

calling my mental illness episodes 'fits of madness' to hope that when the villagers whisper about the strange curse laid upon me, the vampire lord is drawn in by the mystery that may bring him closer to his lost love

I'm not sure, maybe you've already done this, but if not...

Your top 5 favorite CoS NPCs? 👀👀

oo i love i love i lovee!!! i demand to know your fav CoS NPCs too!!

spoiler warning just incase heheheee

making strahd a freebie cuz it feels way too obvious help ndkasnds (plus i wanna do 6-)

from the 'vanilla/unmodded' version:

strahd

escher

strahd's beloved

the abbot

gertruda

helga

also by strahd's beloved i dont necessarily mean specific npcs, but rather the target/obsession that strahd goes for, which may or may not be that npc. sometimes it's a pc too! but still, i am in LOVE with characters that is obsessed for/by strahd

#curse of strahd spoilers #ty for asking!! #happy simping #happy stuff #also the ones listed are all adults/aged up cuz yea #but id totally be the 2nd last one's best friend irl. i feel like we'd be the silliest of friends playing fashion doll games together!! #fun fact i actually omitted the 2nd last one from my campaign because - despite me loving them - i just. #well. that npc felt WAY too close to my own personal life irl. and i was like. o 100% nope!! but i do love them i swear #just would rather interact with that npc as a player and not rp them as the dm hehe #syrips lore

so about like 6-7 years ago i went to a secular church concert for my concert attendance class and one of the church staff noticed i was a musician and asked me what vocal range i do. i said 'i have a mezzosoprano range, but im usually put in alto group.' and the church guy said, 'well, you know what they say about altos..' and i just kept smiling at him waiting for him to explain but instead he just awkwardly coughed/cleared his throat and walked away

and i sTILL dont get it

#syrips lore #i love music

casually thinking about a dream i had about shopping in a crafts store and i saw a butch karlach looking chubby transfem they/she lesbian and i was so in awe of them that i couldnt look at them in the eye and they came up to me with a low voice saying 'you look so edible' and i panicked and woke up in a queer cold sweat

#syrips lore #help writing this was difficult #gay panic

terrified at the idea of strahd peeking into my village cottage home and instead of seeing just some basic peasant shet they also see a bunch of strahd portraits and sketches everywhere in my room

#me and van richten have one thing in common #we have alot of strahd art on our walls #fdgfd- #also lower back pain probably #would i be executed if a baron/burgomaster/adventurers investigated my home #do any DMs/players have a campaign where if i lived in their barovia id be publicly executed for being accused of being the devil's whore?? #oh god id have the cutest prisoner/execution outfit for myself #-sighs dreamily- #happy simping #using strahd as a model for all of my practice has improved my art by like 200% #i love art #syrips lore

even when im super sad i still managed to cope in a super healthy way and im so proud of myself

below is trichotillomania recovery stuff

i havent picked my scalp/face for a whole week and im so proud!! i bought myself an obnoxiously bright beanie and its so chaotically vibrant that it makes me smile and keep it on to protect my scalp

tempted to put pins or embroider it so it makes beanies more enjoyable to wear but this is a lovely start

my eyes may be swollen from tears but my scalp has baby hairs!! 💜
