I want a home with statue fountains in the garden. Bay windows furnished with comfortable seating. A true fireplace with a functional brick chimney. Walls split in half, the bottom for wood and trim and the top half for gorgeous wallpaper. A library for all of my physical books I took so many pains to move with me from place to place all for this. It includes my candles, sconces, ornate desk, vinyls with record player, and windowed cubbies for reading.

The house will be made of brick, stone, and clay. Windows will have beautiful curtains and flower boxes. A porch will wrap around the house with seating to appreciate the landscape. It will be mostly one floor with maybe a half floor above for kids' rooms.

Oh yeah, the garden will also have a gazebo made of wood and ornate stone. A creek that weaves across the property, with a bridge to cross. At least one big, very climbable tree. Lots for fruits and veggies, herbs, plant dyes, fabric fibers, and beautiful flowers. Maybe there will be a horse and some sheep, a few dogs and a spoiled outdoor cat. Chickens for eggs and meat, the geese, goats, and rabbits mostly as pets.

Everything will be colored for the spring, but occasionally I will forget and add in the bright summer, pondering autumn, and merry winter shades. The house will be colorful, and its primary neutral will be the rich and lively brown. I will only accept gray and green otherwise (no black and white). Even the outside of the house will appreciate color. Wood will be equally prevalent to stone. Maybe I will even have a small orchard of sorts if possible. But I want a cottage, I want comfortable, cozy, and real. Something that came from the past because everything today is so overwhelming yet so empty.

I currently have two story ideas slowly developing in my head and I am physically incapable of letting either one go for any length of time. I will not focus on one.

I would prefer some fashion/design trend that is tacky and outdated ten years later but so fun, colorful, and the icon of the moment during its reign, than something "timeless" and minimalist and greyscale. I would prefer something fun and colorful that I don't even find cute NOW than something sensible and timeless. Not that I don't love elegance and classiness, but I think people confused upscale nowadays with needing to be boring. I am anti-minimalist. None of that for me please.

it really pisses me off when adults sit there and drill it into kids’ heads that their youth is fleeting and tell them things like “enjoy your childhood while it lasts because this is the best it’s gonna get”. why are you telling children that adulthood is the worst thing they can experience? seriously what the fuck is wrong with you, why are you trying to make them feel like growing up is a fate worse than death? trying to convince them their life is over before it even begins? i’m tired of that shit. because tell my why my 12 year old cousin told me when she turns 30 she’ll be so depressed she’s just gonna cry all the time. what the fuck. kids don’t need to hear that their already stressful and overwhelming lives are never going to get better, that the abuse and lack of autonomy they face is apparently the highlight of their lives. they need to hear about adults who are happy to be alive and happy to have made it to their age. they need to know that growing up rules, it’s a gift and life does not have to suck for them, that they have a future that’s worth sticking around for. this rhetoric is so damaging mentally and i’m about to start hitting the adults who parrot it. i’m sorry you hate your life but you don’t get to dump your issues on these kids. don’t piss me off and leave these babies alone!

As awful as I feel sometimes, I would never trade what I've learned and done and how I've grown for the naivety and dependence of my youth. Growing up is scary and we really do see our mortality clearer as adults, but then life is so beautiful because your mortal life ends and you also realize that ten years ago was ten years old and wow that was so long ago and you still have eight decades left? And you can learn and grow so much in just a year! And that is so beautiful. Every new year is a new opportunity to see what happens and to learn and to grow, to be independent and love more people and more things and I just could never trade that for fun games and bedtimes and public school.

Your daily reminder that Flashback tried to gaslight you into thinking that Alvar was the one training Keefe in his skills:

"And Alvar told me it's the only reason he didn't die when Brant trapped him in a room full of flames to punish him. That's why he made me practice it for a few minutes every day, along with appetite suppression, breathing control, and darkness vision. He called them our 'survival instincts.'"

When in Lodestar, it's told very clearly that Ruy was Keefe's skills teacher and Alvar was Keefe's chores supervisor:

"Alvar supervises me during chores. And Ruy's the one in charge of the skill lessons."

I don't know how long the typical Neverseen chores would take Keefe, but if I'm not mistaken Keefe spent an hour daily hanging out with Ruy in Lodestar, and has somehow managed to not learn shit about him.

No one talks about where the elves came from. Maybe no one really knows. The original ancients are supposed to be dead and their children are bent on forgetting the past. Their fragile minds cannot remember so much.

What is known is that elves were like humans once. Their bodies were similarly formed from earth, wind, and water. Later, they were blessed with extra elements from the celestial plane. The fire of the eternal sun elongated their lives into their own forever flames, with inherent skills to protect them from death. The shadow of the moon sculpted them into uncanny beauties but weakened their mind with hiddenness and darkness. The light of the stars, particularly those removed from current maps, blessed elves with varying abilities, or talents for bending the world around them. But only for nine sisters.

These women became like deities, so otherworldly were they. And they helped their human communities. Eventually, their beneficence was not enough to keep such differing creatures in a land of mortal hustle and bustle, so they traveled to a foggy island northwest of the Scottish Highlands that they called Avalonis--Avalon, for short--where gnomes, who already covered the globe, grew bountiful crop. Druids made the journey for learning and worship, clans made the journey for art and healing, lords and kings for leadership and protection.

Nine sisters divided the land into nine districts, and they called the island their city. Goddess, queen, and sorceress were all words to label them, but they preferred the later fair folk, fairy, or elf. Truly noble men came into the lives of these women, and married them, and had children by them. The noblemen lived excessively long lives, but still died before a thousand years. Their children contained in full the superior elements in their mothers' blood and kept on living. Avalon faded from human awareness until it became full legend. Though elves would show their faces to humans many times over in the thousands of years to come, they grew wary of humans and kept the location of their precious island city secret.

The identities and qualities of each sister may be revealed in future, like the location of their unmapped starlight or how they made it from one small isle to the rest of the world. For now, the only one that needs mentioning is the eldest. She had the most power, seemingly of existence itself. Where she went, life prospered and was beautiful. Where she willed it, life warped and tainted. Hidden were her homes so that they felt like other worlds just beyond access, for she traveled the most from Avalon--even in the beginning, her family line was known for meddling in human affairs. Tir Na Nog was just one name for her homes, and in a mix of culture between Romans and Celts, as well as a lot of conflating myths and translating, her name became Elysian. Elysian, the center of Avalon. Elysian the mother of a Morgen and Merlin. The eventual maternal grandmother to a Fallon and Luzia, named Vacker after their mother's favored sire.

I have about 36 “favorite verses” listed in the inside cover of my Bible rn.

Choose a number from 1-36 and I will assign you a verse & possibly explain why it’s on the list, if there’s a specific reason.
