TIL that a recent study out of the University of Kansas found that it takes about 50 hours of socializing to go from acquaintance to casual friend, an additional 40 hours to become a “real” friend, and a total of 200 hours to become a close friend.

"Thomas showed him, Alastair ran his fingers over the spot, unselfconsciously, his fingertips tracing a path from the sensitive skin of Thomas’s inner wrist to the crook of his elbow."

I finished my round of edits in time for the new year! This also means I am currently looking for beta readers.

It is for my adult queer fantasy book of 111K. It is currently on 3d draft and primarily looking for feedback on the bigger picture, plot, pacing, characters etc, what is and isn’t working before I move on to finer details.

The book has two queer and autistic main characters, and there are an m/m and f/f secondary plot, though that is not the main focus of the story. CW for emotionally abusive parent, depictions of PTSD

Blurb:

Cass Trueblood needs a Chosen One.

Generations of Trueblood seers have found their Chosen One, guided them on their path and saved the world. But when it’s Cass’ turn, he comes up empty handed. For years he has seen the world fall and he is desperate to stop it and fulfill a destiny he never asked for. But he can’t do it without a hero.

When he’s attacked by people who would kidnap him for his ability to see the future, Cass is rescued by Esti Merdonia. She is a skilled firefighter, experienced with a sword and best of all, she wants nothing more than to be Chosen One. With her, Cass sees an answer to his problems. He tells her she is the Chosen One. No one ever needs to know it started as a lie.

Together, they set off on a journey to the continent long ravaged by the Fear, a magic epidemic that leads not only to heightened fear, but turns people to violence against one another and has brought an increase of dangerous monsters. Here, people have been waiting for the Chosen One for over twenty years, but all Cass has is a lie that’s growing out of control and if they do not stop the Fear within a  year, there won’t be a world left to save.

If you see this I am praising you for behaving well.

I miss the London Institute in 1903.

I miss Matthew and Alastair and Thomas and Cordelia and James and Grace and Christopher and Ari and Anna and Lucie and Eugenia. I miss DILF Will and his Tessa-shaped pearl without price, too.

I miss light academia and picnics in parks and sledding parties and balls and the Hell Ruelle and Paris seances and Kensington Gardens and the Louvre and 102 Cornwall Gardens and 48 Curzon Street.

I miss Cordelia's bravery and Thomas's resilient kindness and fortitude. I miss Alastair's deep untethered love and Matthew's wit and wonder and ability to see the beauty in everything.

I miss Cordelia's globe necklace and Matthew's signet ring and Alastair's daggers and I miss their perfect waistcoats and deep-hued dresses. And I miss their jokes and their laughter and their little family dynamics that really stab at your heart when they want to.

I miss Thomas and Alastair talking all night long and kissing in carriages and insisting that they each deserve love and care. I miss James and Cordelia playing chess and talking about going to Constantinople. I miss Matthew's bright smile and mercurial moods, and his passion and learning that he should not seek to destroy himself because he is wonderful.

I miss lovely character arcs and beautifully-developed relationships. I miss Nothing but Shadows and Cast Long Shadows and Every Exquisite thing and the Midnight Heir. I miss the Penultimate Hours and the Letter Game. I miss Chain of Gold and Chain of Iron and Chain of Thorns.

I miss long nights of theorizing.

But more than anything, I miss The Last Hours by Cassandra Clare. Because that series is beauty, it is art, it is color.

what if i *remembers that making suicide jokes is not conducive with my goal of improving the wellbeing of myself and everyone around me* transform into an oyster

[astriefer]

I'm rereading TLT because I have horrible impulse control and i will never get over the stark contrast of the Lotus Casino scenes of both the movie and book

Because movie Percy's like:

Percy: *high on lotus flowers having the time of his life* This is amazing~

Poseidon: *godly whispera in his brain* Percy you're in trouble get out of there

Percy: Oh sh*t he's right! We gotta go

Meanwhile the absolute perfection book Percy goes:

Percy: *while playing games* Oh man I having a great time! I feel warm and happy and relaxed and safe and enjoying life! I have not felt this amazing in years!

Percy:.....

Percy: something's horribly wrong
