Okay, no, but REALLY, can we talk about the fact that Goat created a game that's not segregated by sex!!! Like the hero our protagonist looks up to is a female player!!! And she's the best in the game!!! And she didn't earn a special place as the only female character by being super special amazing. She's one of many female players and just happens to be the best because someone has to be the best. I cannot overstate how important and impactful a decision for the writers to have made, especially in this day and age where the anti-girl-power sentiment has been so successfully eroded in the campaign against trans people. And Goat went there and didn't have any debates about it. Just: it's about the players and the team, and that's it. Anybody can be a great player. A smaller player will have a harder time against bigger players, but it's not determined by gender. It's just about skill.

And can we appreciate how the female designs are NOT weirdly or overly sexualized!!!

❣︎loser!ellie who is yet to be intimate with anyone other than herself. so she was just as surprised that she got a girlfriend as the rest of jackson.

❣︎loser!ellie who finally coughs up the courage to ask you out. She takes you to an old pizza place, which honestly was very cheap and looked sketchy.

❣︎loser!ellie who goes wide-eyed when you ask if she wants to come over for the first time. she stumbles on her words and hangs up on the phone moments after agreeing.

❣︎loser!ellie who shows up at your house overdressed. black and red flannel rolled up to her elbows, dark grey skinny jeans and sneakers. She turns pink as soon as she sees you answer the door in pajama shorts and a tee.

❣︎loser!ellie who sits on the edge of your bed, scratching the back of her neck as she glances around your room. She mumbles about how its cozy.

❣︎loser!ellie who freezes when you kiss her for the first time. She sits there for a good moment with your lips connected before she finally realizes.

❣︎loser!ellie who whines (literally whines) you straddles her, hips jutting up into you. Her hands find you hips as she pushes you down onto her.

The End Of The Story - rated G, ~ 2000 words

A fix-it inspired by a comment on my Tumblr rant over... whatever that was.

Everything's gone but the bookshop. Satan's just appeared. Except... everything's not gone. Quite. Nor everyone.

God stared fixedly, for a long beat. “How did you get here?” She said. “Existence has ceased. This bookshop is all that is left of My universe.”

“I don’t know,” said the boy. “Something – the same thing’s happened before. I’m gone. And then I come back.”

“Habits are hard to break,” remarked Crowley. “I should know. Stock in trade.”

“You,” said the boy. “You taught me. How to see past what people pretend to be, to who they are. How to be gentle as doves and wise as serpents. How to turn anger into love.” He took a deep breath. “I’m angry now.”

“Who are you?” said God, low and threatening.

“Oh, Lord,” chuckled Satan, “don’t You know Your own son?” He smiled oilily. “So pleased to meet you. After Crowley’s reports, I feel as if I know you.”
