Summary: What is The Lightkeeper?

The Lightkeeper is a Victorian inspired queer historical fantasy story following the reclusive elf Lysander. He has lived a peaceful life as a lighthouse keeper in the human realm for centuries, with his only companion being his cat, Calliope. Unfortunately, his days of peace are disrupted when a selkie pirate captain-- sporting a temper just as large as the rest of him-- washes up upon his shore.

Accidentally acquired myself a sugar mommy except she also doesn’t have any money so she just goes and steals stuff for me. Feeling very loved.

Living your best life.

Imagine if a like 8 foot tall guy that looked kinda like an alien species just kinda showed up at the house you rent a room in and crashed on the couch and at first everyone hated him but you kinda just accepted this weird massive kinda-human alien species thing as a part of your group even though he's like twice the size of everyone else there

Cuz that's literally happening to sea lions in San Francisco right now

[catboybiologist]

So there's two species of sea lion in North America: the California sea lion, ranging along California (including Baja) but not ranging into the north coast or into oregon

And the Stellar's sea lion, which are WAY bigger and live in Washington, British Columbia, and Alaska

A male Stellars sea lion showed up in SF like a month ago and just kinda. Didn't know what to do, and joined a colony of California sea lions, and is just kinda chilling there now.

Weird vagrant species happen from time to time, but this is just a particularly funny instance of a highly social species getting very lost, and just trying to blend in with its closest nearby relatives

best trope: "ugh I guess I'll tolerate you for the time being, but this is a conditional, tactical alliance, and the second I get what I want, we're parting ways" to "you are the only good in the world and I will protect you to my dying breath"

The first art of our beloved Vinny. Before we named her she was colloquially known as “The Weasel Woman” and Sorley’s first mate. Formerly a young noble woman, she ran away from home to join Sorley’s pirate crew. Despite her unconventional newfound family, she has grown into a relatively reasonable woman and one hell of a pirate. The one thing keeping her soft (and on her toes) is her lovely wife Cordelia.
