Training day at Summerhall. Dunk and Aerion have been going at it for a while, but Dunk's been holding back.

You could cut the tension with a knife and the rest of the training yard is watching to see if they'll just kiss it out or not lol

Indie publishing really is a sort of miracle that isn't appreciated much. Like you can literally put anything to print. it can cost you $0. it doesn't have to be good. you dont have to convince anyone to fund you. you can publish literally almost anything right now. compare that to trying to get an indie film or an indie show or an indie musical produced. like wow

I would actually go as far as to say that MOST abuse is unintentional. I think most people will go through their lives without ever experiencing intentional abuse. People are abusive because they're selfish, because they're stressed, because they care more about what society thinks they should do than the impacts of their actions on their children and partners, because they think what they're doing is correct, because they've made it make sense in their own heads, because they think they can fix their victims, they think they can fix their relationships, they think they can stop you from leaving, they think they can make you a better partner to them, they think that means you need to do what they want. We've sort of constructed mental illness in a way that doing this shit to other people counts as a form of mental illness because it is anti social behavior in the literal sense— it is behavior that causes social harm.

I don't say any of this to excuse it. I think everyone needs to be more aware of this because if you think abuse has to be intentional you will never realize you are capable of abusive behavior. You will never realize you are being shitty to the people you love, because YOU know what you mean, YOU know you don't mean any harm. But you're doing harm. You need to pay attention to the impact you have on other people, and you need to do it all the time, Especially when you feel least capable of doing so. Sorry! You live in a society. Get your head out of your ass.

Bruce walked back from the fire, leaned down over me, and, for a second, I thought I was gonna go right there. But no. He plunked me onto his motorbike and switched into his friendly self. But when we got to his house...I’m trying to get this down, dear diary, but my hands are dumb, and it’s all gone dumb in my mind, too. Guess I don’t have to tell you, dear diary, what it’s like to have a person crack your spine, open you up, and shove a pencil inside you. And I fought him, even with my broken arm and then my rebroken arm. But even still, all the bad things happened that bad men do. He had my legs pulled apart, and my dress pulled up ‘round my waist. And that awful, stuffed full, too wet feeling down there, like I was packed with dirt. And I hope, one day, he feels this, small and cornered and crushed like a can.

But then there were the parts where he brought home kills, and I sat with him and ate. I just said what he wanted to hear. And it ain’t easy to like myself ‘cause of it. I even once felt a twinge of something nice and not the worst thing ever. He let me go ‘cause I seemed small, and it looked like he’d won. And he did win, ‘cause I want nothing. To be nothing. And say nothing. And do nothing. You know the stupidest of all, dear diary? I thought I was the thing lurking in the shadows. I thought I was. — The Vampire Claudia

Prompts for writing Hair like that

☆ She had hair so black it had a blue tint in sunlight, the kind of dark that can't help revealing its depth the moment any light is brave enough to touch it.

☆ His hair was the black of a crow's wing caught mid-flight--that impossible blue-black that only exists at the right angle to the right light and vanishes the moment you move.

☆ She had black hair that made her red lips look redder, her pale skin look paler, her whole face look like a painting that had taken its time with composition.

☆ Her long blue-black hair in winter light was the most beautiful thing about her and the thing she was least aware of, which made it more beautiful.

☆ She had hair like starling feathers. Blue-black and iridescent and the kind of color that makes you look twice because the first time you didn't catch all of it.

☆ She had hair like the sky just after the last blue leaves it, that moment when it isn't quite black yet and isn't quite blue anymore and is the most beautiful it will be all night.

when this supposed "pre-Hellenic version" of the Hymn to Demeter is uncovered, then we'll talk, but at this point in time I'm gonna need a lot more than "trust me bro". That means actual sources, quotes, excerpts, bibliographies. Y'know, that thing your teacher desperately tried to drill into you every time they begged you not to source the first thing you found on the Internet and made you create an extra page of cited sources for your essays?

Even the scholars who don't like each other or see eye-to-eye on ancient history or the nuances of the Ancient Greek language still universally agree that the Hades and Persephone marriage wasn't consensual. Claiming otherwise while providing no cited sources of your own just so you can feel better about your Lore Olympus merchandise not only further distorts our actual collective understanding of these mythologies, but makes you look like a massive tool.

Sometimes a piece of media will irritate me because it had interesting themes, fumbled the execution, and had an either mediocre or bad ending AND THEN PEOPLE CRITICISE IT FOR THE WRONG REASONS AND/OR MISS OUT ON OBVIOUS SUBTEXT. I am so tired of a creator near directly stating a thing in supplemental material and doing all but verbally state the thing and then having people say "oh, the ending confirmed [thing] wasn't canon."

Things to consider when writing about mentors!!

⊹ Why are they mentoring your protagonist specifically. Did they see potential? Do they owe someone a favor? Are they bored? Trying to redeem themselves through teaching? Were they forced into it?

⊹ What's their teaching style. Strict and traditional? Chaotic and unpredictable? Gentle encouragement? Tough love that borders on cruel? Do they explain things or just throw the student into situations and hope they figure it out

⊹ What's their backstory and how does it affect their mentoring. Were they a prodigy or did they struggle? Did they have a good mentor or a terrible one they're trying not to become? Do they have regrets about their past choices?

⊹ Are they actually good at teaching or just good at the skill itself. Because being talented doesn't mean you can explain how to do the thing. Some mentors are terrible teachers but great at what they do

⊹ What are they hiding. Every good mentor has secrets. Past failures, dark history, the real reason they're helping, doubts about the protagonist's chances, their own declining abilities

⊹ How emotionally available are they. Do they actually care about the student as a person or just as a project? Will they have genuine conversations or deflect everything with cryptic wisdom? Can the protagonist actually talk to them

⊹ What's their relationship with failure. Do they let the student fail and learn? Helicopter parent energy where they interfere too much? Give up on students who don't meet expectations immediately

⊹ Are they preparing the student for something specific or just general training. Is there a test, a battle, a destiny? Or are they just teaching skills and hoping for the best

⊹ What do they refuse to teach and why. Is there forbidden knowledge? Techniques too dangerous? Things they think the student isn't ready for?

⊹ How do they handle the student surpassing them. Proud? Threatened? Jealous? Relieved? A mix of everything? The moment the student becomes better than the teacher is always loaded

⊹ What's their fatal flaw. Arrogance? Cowardice? Living in the past? Alcoholism? Trust issues? Mentors can't be perfect wise beings, they need to be chaotic humans

⊹ Do they have other students or is this protagonist special. If there were others, what happened to them? Dead? Quit? Turned evil? Still around and now there's sibling rivalry?

⊹ What's their endgame. Are they planning to retire after this? Die dramatically to motivate the hero? Stick around? Do they have their own goals beyond teaching

⊹ How much do they actually tell the protagonist vs withhold "for their own good." Because mentors who keep secrets always think they have good reasons but it usually backfires

⊹ What happens if the student rejects their teaching or goes a different path. Do they accept it? Feel betrayed? Try to force them back? Cut them off completely?

⊹ Are they connected to the villain somehow. Former friends, rivals, family, same teacher?

⊹ Do they survive the story. Mentor death is a trope for a reason but also letting them live and deal with what the student becomes is interesting too!!!
