it occurs to me that if any of you aren't familiar with the award winning graphic novel Digger by Ursula Vernon, which was originally posted as a webcomic, it is my duty to tell you about it, and let you know that the full story is available to read online for free. It is brilliant, highly recommended.

Digger is the story of a wombat who ends up far from her home after a run-in with magic underground, and who ends up on a quest to deal with the problem of a dead god. It's funny, it's heartfelt, it has amazing worldbuilding and characters, and the art is incredible.

Here's the link to the first page!

➜ luo binghe, not yet aware he's a heavenly demon specifically, discovers the cure for Without-A-Cure....and is determined to get shen qingqiu the cure. from tianlang-jun.

➜ and goddamn this whole fic is SO much fun?! I adored ittttttt

➜ sqq awkwardly fake-dating a doesn't-trust-cultivators tlj while lbh resentfully but determinedly wingmans......along with the far less conflicted wingmanning of all the other peak lords

➜ teen binghe is so CUTE and sqq is the most sqq and I love them forever

➜ and wow I am genuinely so compelled by this understanding of tlj's character. he's a major character in this novel-length fic but I would happily read so much more about him!

➜ all the character dynamics in this fic are just. SO GOOD.

➜ a genius svsss bingqiu canon divergence au fic

➜ sqq decides to take care of the unavoidable abyss plot-arc by body-swapping with lbh to do the abyss arc for him

➜ cue: time for lbh and lqg to learn how to appreciate each other!

➜ anyway I loved EVERYTHING about this fic. sooooo many good things it's doing

➜ the way sqq has such a great time testing out his abyss speedrun ideas! lbh and lqg's gym bro friendship style! meng mo providing internal colour commentary the whole way through!

Some bird photos are good because they are beautifully detailed shots that show you all the features of the bird. Some bird photos are good because they're fun.

This is absolutely the best photo of a dark-eyed junco I have ever taken.
