In the fight to free Halsin, I saw a good opportunity to first do some thunderwaving, then to use my durge's dazzling breath ability. Little did I know it would hit things that you'd think would be too high above the floor…

I really feel for my cat in summer. If I was forced to wear an Edward Gorey level big fur coat year-round, including when it got over 90℉ outside, I think I would also turn into an even bigger jerk that complains about everything and wants someone powerful to do something about the situation.

I don’t know if he’s kill us in our sleep or feel better if we shaved him. He already complains when we close the window. Like buddy, I know you love the fresh air and smells, but it’s going to be even more hellishly hot if we don’t fortify our artificial cave against the sun demons.

New Fic: It's in the Air(Baldur's Gate 3, Gale'zel)

(Written for Top Gale Week, Day One: Pleasure Dom).

The immortal god-king of the githzerai might have agreed to meet with the githyanki, but in the end, he refused to allow someone who wasn't even a gith to actually sit in on the negotiations. That was only to be expected, really. Gale had been accepted by the other githyanki rebels because he had Orpheus on his side, and he had since won their respect on the battlefield, but he knew well the dark flaws of their societies, and the githzerai knew little about him. Lae'zel had been unhappy, but they'd both known better than to try and argue.

And Gale minded much less when they at least allowed him free reign of Shra'kt'lor's great library. Orpheus had actually suggested it, some faint amusement in his eyes as he'd commented on "the istik's" great curiosity for all the knowledge the githyanki had that his own people did not, and the githzerai had been equally condescending in their permission, but they'd given it.

And it was true, that apart from Lae'zel, the best part of his current life was getting access to the the astral plane's great collections of knowledge. Indeed, most of the hours he had free, he was reading his way through whatever slates were on hand, especially those that covered the astral plane and the many forms of magic and similar that were practiced there, but ultimately he'd read about any subject. Lae'zel sometimes teased him about it, but often she was reading with him; there was much she had never had the chance to read about either, and she, too, was a creature eager for knowledge and all it could bring her.

Negotiations had gone on into a second day, so Gale was still reading. He had now figured out the library's cataloging system, at least enough to know what was in each section. Unfortunately there were a number he couldn't read; he had long mastered basic Tir'su, but these were written in older, more esoteric gith languages. But there was still enough that he probably could happily stay in there for weeks. Since he didn't think it was likely he had that long, he was instead trying to read at least one thing from each section.

I adore this because even if the colours are off this is so clearly a black-crowned night heron based on vibes alone. Somebody saw that hunched little guy clambering around some branches one evening and went "well that's just delightful"

Vulcan teen on Vulcan [tiktok] saying "I have just lost track of my father in the grocery store." The camera turns to show the viewers the grocery store in which almost every single older middle-aged man has a bowlcut and long robes. Camera turns back to show the teen's face which is expressionless and yet communicates all it needs to.

Next up someone is going to claim that the Narnia series isn't kids books.

Kids books is probably not the best way to word it, you can enjoy them at every age, including your childhood, as you get older you may find new truths in them, but they're still good for any age.

I want you to understand this. I NEED you to understand this. My mother read me the hobbit as bedtime story, and I started pushing myself to read before pre-school so I could in fact read the hobbit for myself instead of having to wait for bedtime.

I didn't do so right away but jesus wept I PUSHED myself to learn to read SPECIFICALLY so I could read The Hobbit! It is, in fact, a children's story! And children only see page count as 'there is a lot of this fun story to read!'
