Cooldown -- a moment to breathe.

[Description: An East Asian woman (me) with glasses, eyes closed, head tilted back, with dandelion fluffs of light around my head.]

Enjoy your youth / Sounds like a threat / But I will anyway

[Description: a curly-haired person with goat horns and ears is sitting high up in the branches of a huge tree, pensive. The shadows of the leaves above splash across the tree trunk and their face.]

I wasn't ready for the '97 passes on these Pokemon. [Description 1: A seal Pokemon balancing a flaming rock on its nose. Description 2: A woman holding out two gun-like fish Pokemon, one in each hand, like two revolvers. Description 3: A straw-doll-like Pokemon with a pin through its stomach giving a thumbs-up.]

That dog gets to be a puppy again! [Description: Jasper from "Steven Universe" with a large dog in her lap -- the dog is happily lapping at Jasper's face, who is smiling.]

I'm what I build, and at the same time, that isn't all of it! I need to jump back into my Stardew Valley game, whoops. [Description: An East Asian woman in a flannel holding a planter of sprouts stands in a freshly-tilled field outside of a modest house in the mountains. She's looking over her shoulder at the rising sun.]

[swordjaw]

Actions to thoughts -- us to here [Description: Two women stand on a rooftop in a European city with a tower, a church roof, and mountains behind them. The taller woman, holding papers, looks down at the other with a fondly patient expression. The shorter woman (me) is holding a mic up to the taller woman with a steady smile.]

Was thinking a lot about childhood places this week -- in particular, Michigan. [Description: An outline of a woman filled in with a shot of a path winding through grass and tall trees.]

[swordjaw]

Fly in sometime [Description: A woman (me) shyly peeks out from a restaurant doorway at another woman in the street, who's holding an umbrella under light rain. She's waving and gently smiling. Through the doorway, the interior of an airplane is inexplicably visible.]

Can you measure out some moves to win a Dosage Badge?

[Description: Me as a Pokemon gym leader. I'm dressed in a bodysuit with a long-sleeved sort of bolero jacket and looking confidently at the viewer. A Muk, Nidoqueen, Roserade, and Crobat are arrayed around me -- looking intimidating, flirty, showy, and excited, respectively -- and we look ready to rumble.]

[swordjaw]

Above and beyond [Description: Several people mill about a huge statue of a woman in armor holding a spear and shield on a path through a eucalyptus forest. I'm stood in front of the statue, rapt.]

[swordjaw]

Deadlock! [Description: Two women circle each other mid-song while audience members look on in close quarters. The woman on the left (me) is playing a guitar, while the woman on the right is holding a mike between us. We're almost tangled, standing and posing around each other in each other's personal space: my arm passes under hers while she grips my guitar, and so on. We're both earnestly and jubilantly singing while we stare into each other's eyes.]

[swordjaw]

Touslehead [Description: Two women in cartoony military-esque uniforms on a walkway suspended next to a stone column. Woman on the left (me) is reaching back towards the other woman. Woman on the right is tangling a hand in my hair, leaning against me. We're laughing.]

[swordjaw]

Sour apple of my eye [Description: An East Asian woman (me) in tapered overalls sits on the edge of a round picnic table with an umbrella top in front of a huge hedge. Apples are strewn about: on the floor, the table and seat, in the hedge, one hanging out of my mouth. A smear of a silhouette of a woman sits at the table with me, smiling shyly.]
