son acquired. i think i'm going to name him duke and no one will know it's a convoluted dark souls reference

he looks mad but he fell asleep when i sat next to him

#he flicks his tail a lot (not sure if he's overstimulated or just weird)#and it reminds me of seath's janky tail animations #and seath is the boss of the DUKE's archives #his name at the shelter was paperweight but i'm not a fan of naming animals after random things #anyways he's so pretty #and has a very fluffy tail but part of it is shaved bc it was matted #i'm afraid some of his longer fur will also get matted so i need to get a brush

I crashed from the numbing heat. Slumbered in deep and lost myself in dream. I roamed through and nowhere in the maze. The shapes I saw grew and shrank, pulsing and floating. The Fever was getting to me. Closer they hunger and I burn in my head.

kye-syla is my 60 year old suicidal lesbian mary sue. who's kind of an asshole

#thoughts that pop into my head after giving her a part in every single subplot in the book #which is a holdover from when ateobr was more of a set of short stories with her as a connective throughline #but now it's like why is kye-syla the bus driver #wip: at the end of blackmill road

consequences of stealing half-baked ideas from ignis (the first manuscript i ever finished) for ateobr (the book i'm working on now) is that i can't go back and develop those half-baked ideas when i rewrite ignis

#spoilers but #both books have a researcher-type female character who dies #(pretty early into ateobr vs end of the second act of ignis)#and is resurrected in a more horrific form #and that character in ateobr is cool and all and very important to the plot #but the resurrection i had planned in ignis is much more visually horrific and interesting #and i feel like i can't do it now #wip: ignis #wip: at the end of blackmill road

getting an evil spirit put inside you without your knowledge or consent is basically a classic childhood experience

You are an unreliable narrator because your coping mechanisms for your deep-seated trauma forbid you from acknowledging the reality of the situation. I am an unreliable narrator because I sincerely have no idea what the fuck is going on.

something something extremely sexy when magic users resort to physical violence. yeah i have the power of god and anime on my side but i also have THESE HANDS. i cast Punch You In The Face. i take my magic staff through which i channel the vast energies of the elements and the cosmos and i cast Severe Concussion And Skull Fracture. casting time for xenoglossy too long, chose the quicker route of Stab You In The Throat.

#magic is pretty limited in ateobr so i do have a fight scene where a magician just smacks a guy with a 2 by 4

i used to dread writing shane pov because he's just kind of annoying but now he has a misconception about basically every element of the plot so it's really funny

there are also a few scenes where random characters will give their opinions on things and i highly recommend coming up with the "average american voter" level of nonsensical politics in your fantasy world

#it's completely logical that he would come to that conclusion through the evidence and his own strong biases #he's still dead wrong #wip: at the end of blackmill road #he's like. a minor antagonist that would be the default hero of any other fantasy story #generic farm boy that joins the royal guard to investigate the king's death #unfortunately the royal guard are the sword arm of a genocidal tyrant #and bro kind of doesn't realize that / thinks the royal guard are there to protect the people
