Whumpee who has killed many - who no longer thinks themself as a human, but a monster - always thought their first kill was their first victim.
Whumpee cries when they're told the first victim was them.

A whumpee who ruminates about the whump they went through. They keep running it in their head over. And over. And over.
Until their mental health takes a massive nosedive.
A vampire burning themselves in the sun little by little thinking they can build an immunity.

greetings from pregnancyland!
yep, you read that right: just as the most insane work season of my life came to an end...I peed two lines on a stick.
this has been a hugely wished-for and long-anticipated outcome, and in many ways it could not have come at a better time. it's been a tough, tough year, not just for my husband and I but for our loved ones, and seeing their joy at our news has been so moving. living in a city/country under seige has galvanized my husband and I to raise the kind of citizen we're trying to be.
and also, pregnancy. is hard?? pregnancy is HARD. I did this to myself, and I did it on purpose, and holy SHIT is it hard. in the span of one week I went from starting every day with a 2-mile hike and ending it at the gym to being functionally disabled.
you remember that scene in Triangle of Sadness? food poisoning on a hell ship in the middle of a storm? that, but you're also hungover, anemic, mildly concussed, in caffeine withdrawal, and not even allowed to take a hot bath. if I'm awake for five hours in a row and answer one email semi-coherently, it's a good day.
on the bright side: I have an incredible husband. we have great health insurance. all my providers are wonderful. I live in a place where my reproductive rights are protected and my choices are supported. and I can see the second trimester at the end of the tunnel.
my #1 priority when I have my body/brain back is to address my overflowing inbox. I am making slow but steady (but slow) progress on the next chapter of TGB. I am also 62k words into a project that I plan to have 100% finished before I start posting (hopefully once baby arrives).
in the meantime, please know I am absolutely committed to/actively working toward finishing Part III of TGB.
and I remain grateful beyond words for your continued investment and forbearance. this story wouldn't exist without you guys. <3
A non-human whumpee, who whumps the shit out of themselves in a desperate attempt to be more of a human. They cut off blood in their supernatural body parts by pressing them down with clothes. They deliberately poison themselves with human food just so no one notices them being unable to eat it. They copy human-like mannerism to the point it physically hurts them..
And then at some point it turns out to still be not enough and they have to pull up some surgical tools and turn to more radical measures.
Fucckkk I have a fever.
Shit sucks.

Oh, to be the scientist on the floor in this image >:)
if i am correct the context behind this is it's a training exercise, the blue guns are dummies/nonlethal iirc?
Having trouble coming up with an ending for "Wuji of Rodney".
Like Rodney, I too have a tremendous migraine and have been beating myself up. You'd think that would help, but no.
While I understand him, I'm not sure I know what he needs to hear. I'm sure John will come up with something.
*sigh guess I should come back to it when I'm feeling better.
