BEACH AGATE!!
Back on my Azem bullshit. Reincarnation. Existentialism. Haunting the narrative. The way the only information we have of them is second-hand. The way we've never actually seen their face and likely never will but their magic continues to save us over and over again. The way we are them but not really. The way they knew what was coming and still refused to be a part of the summonings. I am rotating them in my brain at 3500RPM.
You know, I worry a lot about sounding horny about my OC and her boyfriends on a blog for a game that has some of the most well-choreographed sex scenes I've ever seen in a video game.
Her touch is not poison,
But the antidote.

I would be so much quicker to get things done if I didn't have soft little kitty cats laying on me at any given point.
Long-winded talk of food and weight stuff under the cut (good things though).
I was worried when I first moved in here that it'd be a whole thing that my appetite isn't great. But it's actually improved significantly since I got here, I think just because nearly every day there's someone preparing supper so there's real food available and incentive to eat it regardless of how I'm otherwise feeling at the time (I don't like refusing food someone else has made, it feels impolite). And I'm excited to start cooking for people again.
I've gone from having maybe one meal a day at most to reliably having two with the occasional small snack, of my own volition, and I can feel the difference. I'm definitely going to gain a good bit of weight, and I think that's going to help once I start getting physically active in earnest again. I already don't feel as dizzy when I stand up, which has been a huge problem for me for a long time, so it's already a win.
Now my brain just needs to recover from the general chaos of moving because there's been shit to do just about every day, but I feel like my focus is going to start coming back properly. It's not quite as hazy, anyway.
Having enthusiastic writer friends as a writer yourself is absolutely lifesaving when you hit a wall because you'll be like, "I'm a little stuck on this, can I get your help?" and they'll casually respond with a precision-aimed combination of technical guidance, philosophical advice, and validation seemingly tailored to your exact creative insecurities like it's nothing. And then tell you that your OCs are hot.
Going to try and stop intellectualizing my emotions in 2026. Sometimes seeking self-awareness trips over into self-absorption and shame, neither of which are conducive to actual growth or understanding. Gotta touch some grass, maybe contemplate a creek, and read some good books.
