UNA! hey guys! it’s me, una, the spicy bitch in charge of tumblr blog @fyrclaw. i just want to give you guys an update as to where i’ve been and what’s been going on.
that being said, this will be a bit of a long post, so i’ll be putting it under a “ read more ” tag for the time being. if you read it all, drop a like! i’d be super appreciative.
a big reason as to why i’ve been absent as of late is because i’ve been dealing with college. covid - 19 has really been fucking me up in terms of my uni life, and i’ve been doing all my courses from home as i prep for audition number three ( 3 ). things are complicated, but i should be back on campus sometime next september if everything goes well. in order to occupy myself otherwise, i’ve been blasting out the tabletop rpgs with my mates, and we’ve been having a jolly time. oliver’s level fourteen ( 14 ) now, isn’t that wild? he’s grown up so much over these last two years.
i’ve also been having a little bit of tumblr revulsion recently because of drama involving two toxic ex - friends. i won’t go into it, but if you’ve seen the callout for @/miimuses, you’ll probably already know what i’m talking about. their presence has kinda . . . i wouldn’t say drove me out, but i definitely didn’t want to risk accidentally running into them or any of their friends. this is especially true for interactions in the fire emblem community. there has never been a community that i’ve been genuinely scared to roleplay in until now, but i’m slowly managing to wean my way back into it.
all things considered, if you haven’t seen the callout or you want to know accounts to avoid, private message me and i’ll get you the details. i haven’t shared it on my accounts, but my friends have shared it on theirs. luckily, i don’t think either of the ex - friends involved are on the site anymore, so it may not even matter.
but that’s really the only negative news - otherwise, i’ve just been kinda distracted from this account. a lot has been going on in my life, and though i feel kinda bad for not being here, i feel like it was a worthy sacrifice while it lasted. however, i’m back for a little bit! i know that i probably have a lot of inactive followers, or i’m in a lot of inactive communities, so i’ll need to search around some, but it’s a small price to pay for letting the creative juices flow once again.
i unfortunately won’t be able to do any real interactions here for a bit, however, since i’m on a new computer temporarily ( my charging cable decided to absolutely shit itself ) and i don’t have access to my icons. i could make new ones, but that would mean that i’d have to a) find another cracked version of photoshop and risk that being on my dad’s computer, and b) develop an entirely new layout to match. as much as i love oliver, i don’t know if he’s worth a full aesthetic reboot right now.
so that’s all from me! i hope that you’re having a fantastic day, and i’m excited to see what the future holds!
It is rare and odd for Caleb’s cat, Frumpkin, to misbehave. Hence, when he leaps off his shoulders to chase a raccoon it genuinely catches Caleb by surprise. Utter a curse under his breath, he jogs after his familiar. After a few twists and turns he finally manages to catch up to Frumpkin. Scooping him up in one smooth motion, he offers his apologies to the raccoon’s owner. “I apologize for my friend here,” Caleb says, giving Frumpkin’s head a small pat, “he is normally well behaved. If it is any consolation, I believe he merely wanted to play with your raccoon. We have been traveling for quite some time and your raccoon is the first roughly cat sized creature he has seen in a while.”
– @fyrclaw –
can you ever catch a break? is it even in your nature to? pepper is always rushing off of your shoulders and straight into each and every nook and cranny she knows she doesn’t belong in — it’s ridiculous how easily she’s distracted. even when you were young, you’d notice her running off out of the corner of your eye, and each time, you’d sigh in defeat. she always wins. while many would call her a rambunctious sort, you just refer to her as a pain in the ass.
chased by a cat today, she was. faster than a speeding arrow, running into the woods as if she had heard a terrible secret. now, you’re the mobile sort, so you’re able to catch up to her fairly quickly, but not before bumping into the owner of the cat who had so swiftly lifted the feline up into his hands. you feel yourself let out a breath you didn’t know you had as your cheeks burn in embarrassment. you are nothing if not apologetic.
“ oh, it’s fine, really. ” is it? you’ve never known cats to take an interest in raccoons, not even after years in your primal craft. druids should know these things, and yet ... “ that’s fair, i can understand that days of travel can make animals a bit rowdy ... it’s the same with pep. c’mere, pepper, girl. ” you scoop your little raccoon up into your arms, before she politely perches on her shoulder, pretending nothing’s wrong. she just loves to torment you. “ don’t worry about it. i completely understand. ”
“ I don’t mind! I trust you not to break Aella, after all. “
“ that certainly is an honour, but even so, it’s your weapon! surely it fits better in your grasp than mine. ” you’re not sure how deep decima’s trust runs for you. it feels kinda good, but also terrifying. either way, you certainly don’t want to disappoint.
