SEAN KENDRICK YOU ARE TEN YEARS OLD HOW ARE YOU ALREADY AN OLD MAN (someone started the tsr audiobook again and that someone is me)

YAY!!!! THIS MAKES ME SO HAPPY!!!!! I’M LISTENING TO THE AUDIOBOOK ON MY COMMUTE AND I GOT HOME RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RACE AT THE END AND HAVEN’T HAD TIME TO FINISH IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND ALSO I PREFER TO TO CRY ALONE IN THE SAFETY OF MY CAR THANK YOU VERY MUCH T_T

Yeah, I don’t think Sean was EVER a child. He’s actually a thousand years old and has always lived on the island and every so often his form changes which he finds very inconvenient.

You’re right, that’s exactly what’s happening bc otherwise there’s no other way to explain “myself I can trust”

THE SCORPIO RACES FESTIVAL 2018 IS COMING!

Now in its fifth year, The Scorpio Races Festival gives us fans a chance to celebrate the Scorpio Races season together! Reread. Retell. Recreate. Relive the Races!

Earn entries for the giveaway through:

1. RIDER CHALLENGES Create a character! Bring a character to life as you complete tasks and prompts that immerse you in The Scorpio Races! Your story can still be set in any time period, or be inspired by this year’s theme and imagine what it would be like to live in a much older Thisby and ride in the first races.

2. ORIGINS Explore the origins of Thisby’s myths, locations, traditions, and people! (1) write standalone or multi-chapter fics, (2) create original artwork and edits, etc., (3) create a character to explore the island and its history or add to your Rider Challenges.

3. CREATIVE CHALLENGES
 These challenges give you a chance to express your love for Thisby and include opportunities for fine arts, digital, crafts, cooking, music, and more.

4. READ-ALONG Go at your own pace or follow along with the suggested weekly chapters.

To get started, please follow The Scorpio Races Festival and look out for more announcements in the coming days!

Sorry I’ve been away for a bit! I’m in Italy and things keep reminding me of our beloved water horses! I’m looking forward to coming home soon and celebrating The Scorpio Races Season and TSRF2018 with you all! ❤️

@welcometothisby Just wanted to share my coworker’s Navajo pony! I think he totally passes for an island pony and I’m planning on riding him in the near future, so I’m gonna get even more pictures of his Thisby-looking ass.

Tonight I’m working on the Lovers card for the Scorpio Sea tarot deck.

So, this is kind of odd, but I was wondering if maybe the fandom could help me. 😁 I’ve been struggling to think of a pronounceable show name for my mare, Brighid (Bree-id), and I was thinking that a name relating to tsr would be awesome. (My best friend’s mare is named after her own favorite book, and tsr is mine!) The issue is that I’m really bad at thinking of names. I have a working list of options.... is anyone bored and have any ideas? 😁♥️🙏🏼

Ooh, a Scorpio Races name would be so fun!!!!

TSR FANDOM WHAT SAY YOU???????

Scorpio Sea tarot so far, the crappy cell phone photo edition.

I’m also delighted to report that I’m teaming up with Melissa Cynova (author of the very fun Kitchen Table Tarot) on this one — she’s writing the accompanying guidebook.
