Spent a whole week binging rwby because why not
Here are mah thoughts
Very interesting decision of the show to open on literally the best character, like I’ve heard of peaking early but come on
No but fr Roman is actually so special to me
I just finished volume nine and I broke down crying at his and Neo’s final moments
Thing is, I’m a person with daddy issues and my favorite family member is my uncle so like of course Qrow is second favorite guy
We love us a bisexual subby whore
Ozpin is number three so like guess what my favorite ship is
(Side note, My Own Worst Enemy by Elektric Angel is one of the best fics I have ever read and I cannot recommend it enough)
Why the fuck did this show start out with having one of the four main characters be racist?! What a bold choice
I hate Jaune so fucking much. If you like him, cool, but he’s one my most hated fictional characters ever, not just him but like what he represents
Tho it is worse with Neptune, who’s also like why tf are you here bruv
It’s very funny to have a borderline kinda racist character and a literal meme from 2014 be drafted into war
It took me five days to break and create ocs. They’re called Lemon Lime, Azure, Iris, and Koral. Team LAIK. Maybe I’ll talk about them more at some other point
Listen okay I know that animated shows like to have your hero be depressed in a whole arc, but like god Ruby was kinda grating in season 9.
Blake is kinda rolling with like, one personality trait, but ya know good on her for getting a cool gf
Yang is also the best out of the main four girls
So is Tai, Summer, and Raven’s relationship supposed to be a polycule? That must have been awkward for poor Qrow back in school
Why the fuck is everyone so mad at Ozpin all the time. Like boohoo, daddy didn’t tell you Santa isn’t real, get fucking over yourself Qrow you’re forty three
But fr what is the animosity about. I think Jelloapocalypse summarized it the best in his rwby video
Also did you know the top comment on there is from Technoblade? Check it out, it’s true. No idea he was a rwby fan, but like good for him
Season 6 episode “Alone in the woods” is the best episode by far. I really like when they do more unique stuff with the Grimm, other than just ‘monster’
That being said I’m always a sucker for a space whale
But the line from that episode, “No one was angry or sad or scared. No one was anything. And then, no one was left” is so powerful
Season nine is like fully a fever dream, but it helps with connecting to the main four again, so I like it
Also they need to stop introducing characters we don’t need any more it’s so cluttered
Why the fuck did the tree have Summer’s weapon? What the fuck was she doing there, frolicking in wonderland? Gurl…
I miss Oobleck. He hasn’t been around since like season 4, like what the hell man
What the fuck is Cinder and Emerald’s relationship supposed to be? Are they sisters? Friends? Is Emerald in love with her? Because she seems to be.
Emerald and Mercury are fully siblings tho. Also I love Mercury
Arthur’s monologue to Cinder was one of the best scenes in the show. I loved it, I’m sad he died
The character I relate the most to is little scorpion freak, because honestly dude saaaaaaame
God I want Salem to fuck me
The motivation of the villain being that they’re an immortal being, who wants the world to end because then they can die, is so fucking interesting and I’m surprised I don’t see more of it.
Do you guys think the only reason that Jaune was made leader of team JNPR was because they couldn’t think of a colour with those letters that started with P?
Do you think that’s how they choose all leaders?
How the fuck is Ren supposed to be a version of Mulan? Apart from him being Asian, there’s no correlation. Jesus Christ…
Him and Nora are very t4t tho. Very glad that they established boundaries about their relationship tho, like open communication is all I need
Why is Ambrosius kinda 💅
This isn’t related to rwby but there’s like a bird or smt screaming outside my window and it kinda sounds like a ghost girl and now I’m scared…
I feel like Salem and Ozpin’s relationship is very uncomfortable with Oscar stuck in the middle. Like why did they have to make him fourteen
Pupsicle!!!!
If I had a child in this universe I would absolutely name them something that starts with a vowel. Some of these team names are a fucking stretch, I mean SSSN?!
Another bold move by the creators is having the first few seasons villains be minorities fighting for Justice and equality. Like idk anything about these dudes, but it’s a little yikes
The fact that everyone in this world is an X-men and the show took four seasons to actually explain that is hilarious
Actually the show taking its time to explain anything is hilarious
Like, six seasons in and we find out the villain’s motivations. Hell four seasons in and we find out the villain
The first opening song was easily the best. Like I said, peaked early
The ship names of this fandom are fucking baller dude. Very creative

Gurl after see your beautiful grinder and the thoughts of nerdy!miguel smoking is in my mind 😝 (nerdy!Miguel with like baddy/tomboy reader or popular reader😘 )
LIKE OK HEAR ME OUT OR IMAGINE nerdy!Miguel is side eying at reader when ask if he can join her to smoke a joint and I FEEL LIKE Miguel who say yes but after a few minute and reader was just chuckle at his reaction and Miguel take the joint (not using it) and ask if reader can tell me how to smoke it and reader being reader💅 told him how
.... Miguel is dying and couching , red ASS eyes and tear are started to from AND reader is dying of laughter of Miguel reaction (because I feel like this is the first time she have ever taught! anyone how to smoke a joint and see what Miguel smoking for the first time like she did, was funny😆) but of course reader told him to clam down and inhale it and blow the smoke out (idk that much of smoking but I have seen people do it but I dont smoke but I seen people do it so yea frequently in my life)
And after Miguel got the hand of it first he start saying after there session this "you know what reader ?" reader- " mhm what?"
"im never doing this again because I readed this can kill you"
Reader-" only if you do it many time 😑 which I dont as you can see Miguel"
"Yea but STILL!" Reader-" dont be SUCH A baby ok! Im will still be here if that what your worry about"
Miguel- " i-i... Im not worry about you ok... Im just trying t-to warn you o-ok?"
reader-"Yea .... Whatever you said nerd *chuckle* ... My nerd"
UGH THIS SCENE HAS BEEN SUCK IN MY MIND SINCE YOU SHOWED US YOUR BEAUTIFUL GRINDER 😩😭 ... but I hope you have a great day mother just a fluff idea that I think you would LIKE
-From🐈
OH MY GOD I LOVE THIS!! HE WOULD BE SUCH A LITTLE DWEEB 🤭🤭 this is very similar to a draft of mine (it’s a fluff/smut i might post? idkk) but this idea is SO CUTE I LOVE IT!!

Project Gurl. “Can't Really Explain It” United Masters, 2023
[Stream HERE] https://linktr.ee/callprojectgurl
Words by Nadine Smith
The origin story of Project Gurl is right there in her name: she’s a girl, with a creative project — specifically a project file on the computer where she creates her music. But the Rhode Island-based artist is more than just a daydreamer or full-time creator. What sets Project Gurl apart is her single-minded drive to bring her visions into reality. 
Instead of expecting others to give her what she needs, she goes out and gets it herself; rather than waiting for the beats to come to her, she pounds them out herself. The mentality is DIY, but her sound is anything but, a polished blend of plugg and trap, with a shade of psychedelic hyperpop vibes. Her debut album can’t really explain it: 2019-early 2022 unfinished music is a direct transmission from her endlessly creative mind. Despite the name, the record is far from a rough draft — by looking back at her recordings from over the past few years, she found a throughline to connect disparate blasts of inspiration. Even though her sound is futuristic and her voice often manipulated, the emotions she expresses remain human and real. 
There’s a pop appeal to her catchy melodies, but Project Gurl’s sensibility is a little more on the experimental side, with an electric unpredictability: she’ll shift the pitch or tempo on a whim, going full chopped & screwed on tracks like “no stress” and “henny in my cup,” while on her synthesizers ooze and swirl like a sonic kaleidoscope. In her daily life, Projet Gurl is an obsessive listener of almost every kind of music you can think of, and that deep love of music, regardless of genre, radiates from her music. Sometimes she breaks into a pop-punk flow, like on “Paranoid” and “tiktok song,” while “life goes” is an introspective ballad. Her lyrics can be flirtatious and sassy, or emo and romantic, but the feelings are always vulnerable. 
Project Gurl’s soundscapes are trance-like and glittering, shimmering and bursting in a synesthetic haze. Her music explodes with energy and sonic possibility, just like her mind bursts with ideas. On songs like “two of us” and “el mundo,” she breaks out a funky reggaeton groove, transporting the listener to a lush tropical beach in outer space. As a bilingual speaker of Spanish and English, Project Gurl effortlessly switches between languages like she does musical styles, each one expressing a different part of herself. Despite the multiple styles she weaves into one, Project Gurl never loses her sense of self, and her non-stop hustle and open mindset fuses it all together. 
As an artist and individual, Project Gurl expresses a defiant sense of self-reliance: it’s the love of the work itself, the “project” that supplies her name, that keeps her grinding harder than almost anyone. But that project is far from finished — like her music, Project Gurl is alive and evolving, open to any style and impossible to pin down to a single box.

he he he
Hi Mars,
We are typing this over because I thought I had saved a draft but then I went to retrieve it and it was gone. Those thoughts have passed now so I won't rewrite the whole 2 paragraphs but I will say that I miss my family and my old mornings where I used to take Alice to school and we would have a donut and coffee/hot chocolate date. I was looking forward to the day I would take both babies but things change, they moved and then I moved.
I know things have to change to make room for new memories and experiences but why are we having these great moments only to look back, reflect, and feel sadness. :( A sacrifice of getting older, moving away and starting your own life.
Sometimes I still feel like a little kid and I don't know why I have to live like this. I thought that I would stay local. I loved living where I was, the problem was that my habits were bad and I was tired of seeing people from high school too close around me. That couldn't be helped I guess because I work(ed) in a place a lot of people come to and it can't be helped.
My job isn't horrible. It just isn't fulfilling. What is fulfilling?
Writing a post like this on tumblr brings me way way way back to almost even 8th grade. 2008. Crazy!!! If i think back and see where my passion could be, maybe it would be in writing. I enjoy writing my feelings and thoughts out. I also enjoyed recording videos and editing them. Now it's a real career and I am still pretty youthful to venture into it but sometimes I feel like I am too late.
Anyway its 6:09 in the morning and I am about to call off in a bit to enjoy a nice 4 mile run and then maybe hit up a coffee shop.
October has just started. Today is only day 4. This month I have some minor goals:
Sober October
Run at least 2x a week
Gym 3x
Make more homecooked meals
I am really struggling with making meals. In a non food disorder way, I wish I could go on without having to eat and it is a shame that I say that because you would never hear me say something like that 2 years ago when I lived with my parents because my moms love language was food and cooking. I would say that I am actually a pretty decent cook. I remember when JP and I first started dating and I would go to his apartment in Indy and try and cook for him. I remember specifically trying to make some meatballs that I loved and I did not get them right.
BUT MEATBALLS?? Lol, yo gurl is Mexican and I was out here trying to make him some meatballs. That was like in 2015 and now in 2023 after being humbled by the meatballs, I watched my mom cook throughout those years and I learned a lot about the way she makes things and now I am pretty decent. I am a lazy girl though and was spoiled my whole life having meals ready for me every hour of the day.
I really have so many thoughts but as I keep this up (hopefully) maybe I can make this blog more attractive for myself so that I enjoy coming back to it like I used to. It just feels different on a laptop than on my phone in a really good way. Maybe I will start just taking my laptop to the coffee shop and typing my blogs out like this instead of writing.
Actually, I will probably still have to keep up with writing just to keep my handwriting in check
okay luverssssss
deucessss ~~~~~

Nitro Pepsi, the first cola brewed with Nitrogen!
My saga begins.
It is approximately 10:36pm, Thursday, July 28th, 2022. I am driving home from work after I make a brief stop at the local Walmart, hoping to procure supplies for the night’s dinner. Absentmindedly, I turn the car radio on. There is an advertisement playing, and while usually such an egregious crime would merit the ultimate punishment of a change of the station, I am tried, and attempting to navigate the parking lot of the quickly emptying mega store.
I leave the radio alone, only half focusing on its meager auditory offerings. This is my first mistake. My original sin.
“Reach for the new Nitro Pepsi!” A man’s voice commands. It is at once authoritative and seductive, no doubt rigorously tested to be as attention grabbing as possible. And it works.
I am drawn in by the words, as my mind conjures connections between nitro cold brew coffee and Pepsi cola, a strange combination, but not immediately contemptible.
“The first ever cola brewed with nitrogen!” The advertisement continues, shattering my musings about a coffee/cola collaboration.
I should, by all rights, tune out.
I do not.
This is my second mistake.
The advertisement plays out as the man explains what it is that make Pepsi Nitro unique when compared to other, lesser beverages. He explains that it creates lighter, smaller bubbles, offering a unique drinking experience, a one-of-a-kind texture. He explains that, were one to be willing they could, in fact, turn the can completely upside down to pour it into a chilled glass, to create a light frothy foam head.
The longer this description continues, the further down the rabbit hole I spiral. My mind has conjured associations with beer, and it’s behaviors. I am no longer simply curious, I am intrigued. A cola that behaves like beer? A fascinating thought.
I briefly consider trying this new cola.
“California Gurls” by Katy Perry begins playing, and I put all thoughts of nitrogen infused cola out of my head.
It is worth noting that I began listening to Katy Perry ironically, as a grown man with a punk/alternative aesthetic, I found it at first humorous to excitedly turn up the volume whenever I should happen across one of her songs on the radio, cutting off all conversation curtly and singing loudly, often off key, until the song’s completion. Of course, as is often the case with things done in the spirit of irony, I came to genuinely enjoy her musical offerings.
With the final refrain echoing in my psyche, I made my way home, completed my evening’s activities, and prepared to slip into that restful oblivion of dreams.
12:45, Friday, July 29th, 2022. I am in a local gas station groggily scanning the refrigerated shelves for a flavor of energy drink that appeals to me. The shelves are a patchwork of empty rows, various offerings of Monster Energy, Nos, and Rock Star. I sigh, settling for a Red Bull variant that purports to be “Strawberry Apricot” but in reality is only Strawberry and sour. It will suffice. As I open the door to procure the beverage, something else catches my eye. A flash of blue. Memory stirs.
I had my beverage in hand. I should have simply made my way to the register, paid for my sugary death chemicals, and been on my way.
I did not.
This was my third mistake.
I approached the refrigeration unit, studying that flash of blue aluminum.
“Nitro Pepsi” the can read, brown orange lettering above simple white text. The nearly 14oz can stared down at me, an almost perfect recreation of the “tall-boy” canned beer offerings.
“Draft Cola” the container promised.
“Natural Flavor.” It offered.
The events of the night before rushed back, redoubling their intensity.
“Draft cola?” I mused. The association to beer growing ever stronger in my mind.
It is here, dear reader, that I feel it is important to make two things abundantly clear.
The first being that I do not like most dark colas. I’ve never been over fond of Coca-Cola, never felt an overwhelming craving for a Pepsi, never been pray to a passionate longing for Royal Crown Cola. The only dark cola that I do partake in on rare occasions is Doctor Pepper, but I feel that this beverage stands leagues beyond its contemporaries, being not only in possession of a doctorate’s, but also possessing the rank of Sargent, and the apparent proprietor of a “Lonely-Hearts-Club” that featured such esteemed membership as the British pop-rock sensations, The Beatles.
The second matter on which I feel the need to exposit is my enjoyment of beer. From Amber’s to Lagers, Stouts and IPAs, I enjoy a good beer. I am particularly fond of a nice Guinness Stout on a cold evening.
It was these two fundamental personal truths that were warring in me as I gazed upon that icon of sin, that horrid monument to man’s hubris . A cola, a Pepsi cola. But one that had all portents of being like a beer.
In the end curiosity got the better of me, and I selected pulled the false idol from its pedestal.
The cost, $1.99 USD, tax included. A small price to pay to sate my curiosity. Too great a price for the torment it wrought.
I bought the Nitro Pepsi.
This was my fourth mistake.
With my transaction completed, I returned to my vehicle and made preparations for the final leg of my journey to work. I glanced at my canned companion. A slight perspiration had begun to accumulate tantalizingly on the outside, a promise of cool refreshment, a bastion against the raging heat and ruthless humidity, already sapping what scant energy I had to offer.
With trembling hands I reach for the can. My finger reverently caresses the tab. With a satisfying pop and hiss, the sweet nectar froths forth. For all the world it looks to me like the foam that emerges from a freshly opened Guinness Stout. I begin to salivate.
My mind races, memories flash through me, that first, crisp sip of a cool beer after a long, hard day. The pleasant conversations had with an elbow propped up on the bar. Friends, family. Fun. And all of this my foolish brain begins to associate with the tantalizing can in front of me. I lift the Nitro Pepsi from the cup holder. With quivering hands I pause to read the can one more time before I let it’s promised rapture wash over me.
“Smooth” it says.
“Creamy” it promises.
“Easy to drink” it offers.
Easy to drink. I take a sip.
This is my final mistake.
My fate is sealed.
The liquid pours from the opening in its cap. It spills between my lips, dashes across my teeth like a river over stones, it splashes across my tongue, and in my eagerness I fill my mouth with it’s sweetness. It is marvelously cool, bracing and refreshing. And it tastes…
Flat.
There must be some mistake.
I sputter, nearly spitting the liquid across my steering wheel. This is not smooth, or creamy, nor is it easy to drink. It is thick, syrupy, and tastes of flat Pepsi. It is nothing like the beers that I have come to associate with joy.
In my confusion I take another sip. Surely I was simply mistaken, I swallowed too fast, I wasn’t holding the can right. This cannot be all that Nitro Pepsi has to offer. This is not what I have been promised.
Nitro Pepsi does not sense my despair, Nitro Pepsi does not care.
The second sip is worse than the first, stripped as I am of my delusions of smooth, creamy, easy to drink goodness, I am left only with the flat, syrupy, saccharine filth that spills down my throat.
Why there was a third I cannot say. Perhaps I deluded myself into believing that it could get better? I do not know. I do not even know if it was me drinking anymore, or if Nitro Pepsi had possessed some vital portion of my soul, forcing me to drain that vessel of lies, until naught but scant vestiges remained of that unholy ichor.
When at last I retained full control of myself, the can was empty, and so too was I. The the sickening aftertaste of stale Pepsi clinging to my tongue. That strange stickiness lining my teeth and gums. I had been deceived. The false promises of a soda that drank like beer had washed through me, leaving only a hollow husk in its wake. Nitro Pepsi had destroyed something vital in me, and left me broken and alone, struggling to pick up the pieces left in its wake.
You may have cause to feel some sense of sympathy, dear reader, for a pitiful thing such as I. But I do not write this in the aftermath of my ordeal to invoke in you the milk of human kindness. I write this to warn you, dear reader. Do not fall, as I did, for the lies of Nitro Pepsi. Do not be fooled by the sultry promises of that authoritative yet seductive advertising voice. Do not be deceived by that tall, glistening blue can, or it’s promises of smoothness, or creaminess, or easy-to-drinkness. Do not be drawn in by its hearty, tantalizing froth, nor the dancing glint of perspiration. Do not let Nitro Pepsi deceive you, as it did me.
I know now a harsh truth of our pitiful existence in this world. Hell is empty, and all of the demons are here, and they are infused with nitrogen.

WRITEBLR INTRODUCTION
DISCLAIMER: While this blog will not feature any sexually explicit content, my writing does deal with mature themes that are intended for 18+ audiences only.
Hey, I’m Max! Hailing from the Land Down Under, I’m a twenty-one year old aspiring writer, artist, and all-round lover of the eccentric.
In my desperate attempt to rekindle the dying embers of my creativity, I’ve come to seek refuge here, in the Tumblr writing community! While I’m mostly known for being an artist online, I am fairly new among writing circles, and it’s been a good few years since I’ve made any original writing of my own. So I’m hoping that, by engaging with more people who are passionate about writing, I’ll garner the motivation I need to finally get my projects off the ground!
ABOUT ME
My writing-related interests include having:
A propensity for dabbling in long-winded, pretentious prose, dripping with affectation and garnished in sarcasm.
An eclectic taste in literature: I love genres of all sorts! Speculative fiction is my go-to, but I specifically enjoy New Weird fiction, historical fiction, science fiction, horror of practically all kinds, as well as mystery and crime fiction.
A shameless tendency for writing sad, pathetic men in the midst of existential dread, and;
An unwavering desire to break the conventions of storytelling, one grueling draft at a time. :’) The weirder the stories, the better!
MY WRITING
What should you expect from my writing?
I love character-driven stories, so those tend to be the focus of my work. I especially enjoy exploring the processes of thinking my characters go through to justify their actions, which makes morally-ambiguous characters some of my favourite types of characters to write and read.
My settings tend to be dystopic, severely-skewed from the narrator’s perspective, or otherwise otherworldly. I mean, the setting almost always ends up being Earth, just... Earth, but five steps to the left.
Many of my works aim to add a bit more diversity to queer writing and storytelling, with an emphasis on attempting to capture queer experiences that are not often depicted in media.
MY REVOLVING DOOR OF WIPs
COMICS
PANTOMANIA - New Weird | Mystery | Crime
After seven years of being made subservient to the whimsical tyranny of Chaos Vega and Dr. Entropy, the city of Goetia feels a sudden shift in the air. An election, a high-profile murder, and a palpable restlessness in the criminal underworld seek to threaten our beloved villainous duo. 
Mystery Madhouse - Satire | Comedy | Mystery
Offered one final chance to work at Bozo’s Carnival, two clowns are landed a job at the newest and hottest attraction in town - the Mystery Madhouse. When people who visit the Mystery Madhouse start to go missing, however, Pip and Zaz have to do everything in their power to not lose their jobs.
G4Y GUY & STR8 GURL - Satire | Comedy
A series of short comic strips about idiot coworkers who engage in a petty rivalry. 
NOVELS / MISCELLANEOUS WRITING PROJECTS
The Terror of Man - Sci-Fi | Dystopian
In a world where humans evolved to read minds, what does it mean to have a mind that cannot be read? Born with a severe form of aphantasia, wherein all forms of perceivable thought cannot be conjured, Professor Katsuki Mori utilises his skills in cryptophantology to uncover the mysteries of human thought. 
Juvenile Love - Anthology
A personal project in which I analyze and rewrite my old creative writing stories. This is intended to be a writing exercise for myself, but I’ll share any stories or analyses that I find particularly worth commenting on. 
I love making new friends and talking about anything and everything to do with writing and art, so please don’t be afraid to talk to me!

I haven't posted anything in days, so.... Here's a draft of a genshin impact comic I'm working on. I apologize if it's suuuuper messy and blurry. I couldn't draw in my tablet right now cuz someone is borrowing my laptop 😭
Anyways, read it from right to left.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
It's my first SI/OC, a "what if" I isekai'd in Teyvat. Or, "modern gurl gets punted to genshin impact".
She died via car crash, and woke up freaking the fuck out next to Aether. She has knowledge of Genshin Impact game, but only up to when she first meet Jean and Lisa and are going to 3 temples since she just started playing the game.

2020 Fanfic Year in Review
Am I allowed to do this? Anyway, tagged by @fandomsbyladymelodrama <3333
I’ll just include the graphic novels because that’s the way I can participate here LOL
Total number of completed stories
4 completed stories, one uncompleted story that is still a WIP. 
Total number of words:
I’ll go with the number of pages: In total 291.
Fandoms written in:
Game of Thrones. That’s it and I am not even sorry
Top 5 by Word Count:
alias, by page count:
1. returning home.
2. Family Tradition
3. dragonfly
4. to fall in love
Top 5 by Kudos:
1. returning home.
2. dragonfly & to fall in love 
3. Family Tradition
Top Fic overall:
Considering stats that would be “returning home.”
What’s your own favorite story of the year?
I love them all equally, but because it’s still fresh I am happy how Family Tradition turned out, from an artist POV. That was at least the one I had to do a minimum of corrections after I finished the first draft and given that the story gave me troubles, also from a narrative POV I liked how it turned out in the end.
Did you take any writing risks this year?
Yeah definitely. I did not know whether people would like a mermaid story and I was not familiar with the Regency era style before I started dragonfly. Also I drew a lot of characters that I am not used to draw and that I don’t enjoy drawing (I am looking at you, Viserys) and that’s always a risk because I know that when I am less passionate about a character it shows in the drawings as well.
Do you have any fanfic or profic goals for the new year? 
4584096834068 more collabs with @fandomsbyladymelodrama <3 Gurl you are my biggest motivation to draw these stories and Family Tradition was your fault because of all the Mormont spirals we went through in the weeks earlier. And I want to do even more graphic novels in 2021. One is in progress, one is already planned out, and I hope that I’ll improve my artist skills further and gain more confidence in what I am doing.
Most popular story of the year?
That would be returning home, although I got super sweet and awesome comments on dragonfly too <3
Story of mine most under-appreciated by the universe, in my opinion:
None, tbh. I was overwhelmed by the responses to all of those graphic novels!
Most fun story to write:
returning home. <3 Brought me through the main part of the first lockdown and PhD stress, and loved to create that story. It was also the story that was the easiest to construct from a narrative POV. And I still love fisherbear and MerDany and the Lannister Bros and Aqua-Jason-Drogo. <3
Most unintentionally telling story? 
I am not sure what the question means, but I think I was surprised by how many people saw things and messages in dragonfly that I had not put in there on purpose but they made totally sense! Loved to see how e.g. @clarasimone and @terisrog explained my work to me and I was like “omg yeah actually that makes sense and wow I am surprised that I managed to put in there so much without even realising it” XD
Biggest disappointment?
None, I love all my babies and the feedback they got <3 Jorleesi fandom supports with the strength of 10 main fandoms!!!
Biggest surprise? 
Seriously I was astonished how much I was able to draw in a short span of time. I think I drew dragonfly (69 pages) over the course of two weeks? And the first chapter of returning home took just two days. Then all the positive feeback surprised me and I was happy that I managed to tell a story just by pictures and not by words. Couldn’t believe when people asked me whether I could do hard copy prints of the stories too <3
Tagging @terisrog @clarasimone @toas-tea @raymondhope-writer and anyone else who wants to do this <3

Blood For Gold Chapter 14
Tumblr media
Ha! You THOUGHT I had forgotten this but no. No. Not by a long shot. it's just getting GOOOOOD. Like intrigue, sit on the edge of your seat as you subconciously hold your breath, good. The plot thickens and it's getting complicated and dangerous and you're gonna love it! Just...love it.
@punkhorse96 gurl, this is for you. Enjoy.
Blood For Gold
Chapter 14
“So what caught that nose of yours so strongly tonight?” Benny asked as she stole into Sierge’s room and was in the process of eagerly disrobing him again.
“I couldn’t be sure.” Sierge shook his head, not wanting to disclose the secret his nose uncovered, although if push came to shove and it was either him attaining Benny or his brother attaining Audra and his happiness was the price of his brother’s, he would officially have enough to tip the scales in his favor. Although now that he had been close enough to Sultana Audravienne, he realized the secret to why the Sultana would have so much coin to throw around, she was obviously a private whore for the Red Velvet Rope. Living a double life and supplementing her income. By his calculations the Sultana could pull in hundreds, maybe even thousands of pounds, being a pure moura with marks like hers, anyone would be paying through the nose to see how extensive they were and if she were masked, no one would be any the wiser because of how “proper” English society was and how covered up they usually had to be, no one would ever see that much of Audra’s body to say one way or the other in polite society. But if the gossip columns got wind of it, she’d be done for.
That is how the Sultana enraptured his brother, they met on the train first, then went to The Red Velvet Rope where she was already latched onto Demsey through his cock and was making Demsey compete for her with the Dauphin, just another moura playing another game of cat and mouse or mice in a maze. All mouras were the same, except for his Benny, his perfect, brilliant Benyana. Who had captured his heart, mind and soul.
“I don’t believe you.” Benny practically sang as she pushed him down into the bed before she practically pounced on him and used her fingertips to both stroke and rake her hands all over his already marked body.
“Demsey’s whore at the Red Velvet Rope, I found her scent on another orc.” Sierge finally confessed as Benny continued to licentiously tease him.
“Well she’s a whore and her whorehouse was hosting the event, of course she was working, she has to make a living too.” Benny reasoned with a shrug as she started licking up his cock and could tell that wasn’t all Sierge had uncovered.
“So what else?” Benny prodded as used the tip of her nose to nuzzle his ballsack as his mostly hard cock layed over most of her face, the head already weeping and the sight threatened to pull every ounce of air from Sierge's lungs.
“Come on, you can trust me, tell me. Have I ever betrayed your confidence?” Benny encouraged before she used the tip of her tongue to split the two testicles as she licked from the back of his ball sack to the underside of his cock then licked all the way up to the tip, grinning as it got completely hard from her minstrations.
“No.” Sierge hissed as he fisted the bedding. Benny and that tongue of hers was something else. He loved it.
“Then tell me.” Benny offered before she swirled the head of his weeping cock with her tongue before flicking it and giving him a heated look of desire.
“She wasn’t there as a worker, she was there as a guest.” Sierge finally groaned when her mouth closed over his cock as she gave him a few good sucks as Benny giggled in her hum around him.
“And did you find her?” Benny asked as she used her hands to start massaging his thighs.
“Yes.” Sierge confessed as he felt like he was in heaven.
“And?” Benny pressed further.
“The resemblance is uncanny.” Sierge said, figuring that was the safest answer he could give.
“Then why did you sniff at Audravienne at the table and the other blue orc?” Benny asked as she used her breasts to squish around Sierge’s cock, the underside rubbing against her breastbone.
“Because I could smell her on him.” Sierge said.
“It was a crowded dancefloor, she could have brushed up against him.” Benny excused, trying to see how much Sierge would give up.
“Not unless she had sex with him on the dance floor, I could smell her sexual essence on him. On his pants particularly. It had been attempted to be wiped off, but her essence was potent and very fresh, less than an hour old.” Sierge admitted.
“Well she’s always had a thing for orcs.” Benny revealed.
“What do you mean by that?” Sierge asked as he rose to his elbows to look at her perplexed by her choice of words.
“My brother Leumeni? He used to get her off with his fingers and tongue a lot back in the stables, it hurt him something awful when she became a shakan and couldn’t return to them, never even returned any of his letters either in all that time.” Benny revealed.
“He what?!” Sierge asked as he sat up, feeling particular panic grip him for his sister Kiera’s sake because Kiera and Leumeni had gotten quite cozy themselves.
“What? That’s a norm back in the stables, most brothers get their sister’s friends off, mouras of all kinds have high sex drives, it keeps the moura’s “pure” as in no penile-vaginal penetrative sex but that doesn’t mean you can’t suck someone off or help them masturbate in turn, but the keiy point is, is, it’s just sex, no feelings, no strings attached, or that’s the way it’s supposed to be but not the way it is right now between us.” Benny giggled as she climbed into his lap and seated herself onto her prize.
“Does that mean that Kiera is in danger of Leumeni…” Sierge began.
“Oh no, wherever we are, we have to hold ourselves to the code of ethics and standards of where we are at the time. So since it’s not proper for a “lady” such as your sister to be in any compromising situation with a gentleman, Leumeni likes her enough that he won’t jeopardize her honor. Nor any of the other jewel orc counterparts. But you and I obviously have something much more precious and valuable than they do, don’t we? And it would be a shame if we didn't take advantage of every chance and opportunity to get as aquainted with each other as we can be, can we?” She coached as she held his face as her gaze held his as she was undeterred and rode him.
“That we do.” Sierge had to admit.
“Then don’t worry.” She reassured him before he fell back into the bed and let her ride him as she pleased.
Meanwhile in Demsey’s room.
“You have to tell her!” Tzane demanded of his eldest brother as Demsey was laying in bed with his arm over his eyes and just wanted rest more than anything, his body was spent, his mind was exhausted and his heart was torn in conflicting confusion.
“I will, when the time is right.” Dempsey reassured Tzane.
“And what’s wrong with right now?” Tzane pressed.
“She’s tired, just like I am. She’s already in bed, it would be inappropriate to go to her rooms, especially at this hour.” Demsey argued.
“Oh you say that, but yet we all know that Sierge isn’t staying alone in his room, we can all smell them on each other. But no one even bats an eye.” Tzane argued.
“That’s because the only thing Sierge cares about- is his own pleasure more than any woman’s honor, even a moura bride’s.” Demsey growled, frustrated that every time he closed his eyes he was seeing Miss Draft instead of Sultana Audravienne.
“If you don’t tell Audra now before the Dauphin and Dauphine push Ramsey to ensnare her to the point where she has no choice put to accept him, it will be too late and Audra will have to put up with sharing her partner with her brother of all people, it’s heartbreaking enough for a partner to be unfaithful, but that’s too much like incest for anyone.” Tzane pleaded.
“I know! That’s why when I get a chance to privately tell her, I will, so that she can protect herself from him and his family. Tomorrow, I will find a moment to tell her tomorrow and I will not rest tomorrow night until it comes to her attention, now please for the love of the gods and all that is holy, return to your own quarters and get some rest. Please, I beg of you.” Demsey pleaded.
“I will hold you to it.” Tzane insisted before he left and returned to his own room.
Meanwhile Calla had found her way into your rooms through the secret passages.
“Audra, there is something you need to know.” Calla insisted as she came over to your vanity where you were removing your makeup and wondering why you had put on gold glittering eyeshadow before you left but it seemed to have turned white and then black over the course of the evening, it was happening to more and more of your gold powder and glittered substances and it alluded you as to why it kept happening, it kept happening ever since Edward’s death and you didn't know what was happening but it was getting on your nerves.
“Is it about how Axal and Ramsey are lovers?” You guessed.
“You know?” Calla asked, shocked by the fact that you knew already.
“Of course I do, Axal told me about the attraction the moment they landed here and he’s been inseparable from Ramsey ever since and I understand if the sight of Ramsey sucking Axal off on the balcony above us caused a disruption to Tzane and Demsey, such kinds of relations are a bit taboo in this society but I had no reason to make a scene and embarrass anyone tonight by throwing a fit, although if push comes to shove and I’ll need that reason publically, I’m sure Axal will “confess” to everything to give me an out eventually. For now, I’m content to play blissfully ignorant until then. But you must swear to keep all that a secret, especially from anyone and everyone else.” You confided.
“So this...does not upset you?” Calla asked.
“No, why should it? I have no attachment to Ramsey and therefore no reason for jealousy, at this point such a union with Ramsey would be considered incest on account of Axal which is all the reason I need to dismiss Ramsey as a suitor and his attempts to woo me and I love Axal dearly and I want to see him happy and Ramsey seems to be able to do that quite nicely and honestly with Axal going to 3C’s, it makes quite a bit of sense. Axal has a solution to the “problem” and it should become realized soon. So all I have to do is wait and play along for now.” You told her.
“Oh.” Calla frowned as she considered all of that.
“So you and Tzane seemed to be quite the pair tonight, does he please you?” You asked her as you scooted over on your bench and patted it in invitation so she could sit next to you.
“He is the most noble and remarkable and brilliant gentleman in all of England.” Call sighed dreamily as a love drunk smile seemed to plaster itself on her face which brought a happy grin to yours before Calla started talking about how wonderful Tzane was.
Meanwhile back in your grandmother’s room, she was taking council with her daughter, her daughter’s mother in law, as well as your hier father’s wife and her mother along with the Dauphine herself as they had all passed around your original contract with Edward along with your contract with Richard as well as the reports of the stable master’s assessments of you after you had been reassessed after Edward’s death.
“This makes no sense.” Your mother said as she wiped the tears from her eyes, reading about the abuse you suffered.
“I think it makes perfect sense.” Maradiem, your heir father’s wife, and your "step mother" answered.
“Then explain it how you see it so that it makes sense.” Your mother demanded.
“What is missing about the reports is Jane. She was only 15 at the time, and is still at the absolute mercy of her monstrous parents. She was an innocent caught in the crossfire according to Audra and the only soft spot the Morrigans found to “push” because they ripped all the others away. Audra had no means of escape, she had no way to fight back. She was being watched at all times and drugged with mourkatili. Served at Jane’s hands no less. If Jane had any sense of self preservation, she of course would play the innocent wounded, weakling to Audra, beg for Audra’s compliance so that she wouldn’t get hurt from Audra’s point of view but also play the compliant pawn to her parents to keep herself from actually suffering their "abuse" which I'm sure was just a show for Audra's sake. And while the Morrigans found that if they appeared to punish Jane, because Audra herself was too strong to defeat by any other means, they used Jane to emotionally manipulate her and dupe her into anything. Jane still, could have reached out to the stables, she could have reached out to any number of people at all the balls or anything she went to, she could have sent a private message to the stables to intervene if she really had Audra’s best interests at heart and wanted to protect Audra as much as Audra protected her. As it stands now, if Audra dies, it is Jane who is Audra’s beneficiary. All that money and wealth, goes to Jane if something happens to Audra.” Avania, Sylvar’s mother explained as Maradiem nodded her agreement to that explanation.
“Exactly.” Maradiem nodded.
“And I have dispatched Charlotte to get the truth from Jane, Charlotte is quite good at gaining trust and gaining invaluable intelligence, she is far more intelligent than she lets on, she is with Jane now, in the gardens and is gathering intelligence as we speak and has been since she came here. Plus, it’s been no mistake that Countess Agnes Morrigan has always had her eye on Ramsey for Jane herself and with Audravienne out of the way and with Jane inheriting all that Audra has, even that would be enough for Gregori or Ramsey to reconsider.” Yalin confessed.
“But as it stands now, Audra’s body has been poisoned or "tainted" as you would view it, to the point that any chance of her producing an heir is naught and any designs that Gregori or Ramsey have about her producing an heir for your family is not feasible.” Your mother Jodhaa voiced.
“Yes, both Gregori and Ramsey will have to consider that Audra even trying to conceive could endanger her life. And I will speak with them about it myself.” Yalin readily agreed.
“I think we need to reach out to Audra’s paid companions, bring them here and question them and see what they know and question all of Audra’s servants, the ones that followed her from Broadcove are especially suspicious.” Loreiris insisted.
“As it stands, Scotland Yard is at Broadcove and at Mirador. And we have hired Bellfast, who is a mage- and they are especially keen with everything magical and they can conjure up everything that has transpired. And what I heard from them only this morning- is Broadcove was under two spells. The second was placed by Audravienne, to turn all the mirrors and paintings in Broadcove into scene catchers, and the first however was performed by a wizard- Lemark under Richard’s decree, so that no messengerari- would work on the grounds and the lightning rod on top of the house is a form of signal disturbance that affects not just the house but until the very grounds that Broadcove sits on, even their neighbors have difficulty but have never thought that the problem would be with Broadcove and Scotland Yard in their in their investigation have found that at least three men in the postal system have been hired to catch all of Audra’s mail and all mail addressed to Audra and they themselves disposed of it but as of right now- those letters are being rebirthed into existance by Bellfast. Each one will come with a high cost- of course it will be demanded of the Morrigans to pay for. So we do have solid evidence of Richard tampering with all communications.” Yalin divulged as she pulled the letter out from her pocket and passed it around for the others to read.
“So Richard made it so that Audra couldn’t reach out and from that, obviously Jane could not reach out either. Audra fired back with making everything else in the house a catcher- basically a messengerari that was set to record everything.” Jodhaa smiled in relief as did most of the others.
“It appears so, yes, but it’s all protected by a password. If they can crack the password, they can get access to it, or if Audra will be so kind as to provide the password, a case can be built starting tomorrow so that after the komoba battle- we can go straight to court.” Yalin grinned.
“Clever, clever girl, that’s how the stable masters could know of the abuse. Not only did they have Audra’s word, but they must have seen the proof of it with their own eyes. A catcher is just as good as a messengerari.” Maradiem realized.
“And catchers and messengerari’s both hold up in our court system as proof. As long as there is no sign of tampering, it all can be submitted and taken as gospel.” Yalin insisted.
“Now if you’ll excuse me it is quite late, we need to retire and get at least a few hours of sleep tonight.” Yalin urged them before they all got up and went their separate ways as Charlotte was already waiting in her mother’s room dressing room to tell her what she had found out from Jane but one look at her Lottie and she could immediately tell something was wrong.
“Audravienne’s case can not be allowed to make it to court.” Lottie insisted as her eyes glossed with tears.
“What? Why?”
“Because Jane has uncovered the plot to bring Audravienne into this family. And if the case goes to court- Audravinne and Jane will be assassinated to cover up the plot.” Lottie urged her mother, her own panicked tone giving Yalin pause and worry.
“By the Morrigans? They’ve already tried to kill Audra with mourkatili and failed, but why would they try to kill their own daughter? That doesn’t make any…” Yalin shook her head no.
“No- not by the Morrigans, but...but by Father.” Lottie blurted.
“What are you talking about?” Yalin asked as Lottie’s tears began to fall and she started trembling.
“Count Edward Morrigan was poisoned with Wolf’s Eye. That’s what made him go crazy to begin with. That’s what made him abusive to Audravienne and what got her that shakan status. When Richard and Agnes discovered it, they thought it was Audra, but it wasn’t, she was innocent and had no knowledge or involvement and Jane has proof of Audravienne’s innocence but her parents did not believe Jane and believed that Audra had brainwashed Jane into thinking Audra was innocent, the reason they bought that mourkatili was revenge for Edward. Father poisoned Edward and killed Edward so that Audravienne could marry Ramsey quicker. Jane knows that Audra is innocent, she also knows of father’s involvement and if it goes to court, Jane knows that it will be the death of not just Audravienne but herself if not her whole family to cover up father’s involvement. That’s why it can’t go to court. What has already been done is all that can be done, if any further steps are taken- the implications would ruin everyone involved, even us, especially us.” Lottie revealed as Yalin had to sit down and clutch her middle and fight not to throw up.
“Doesn’t father’s actions make more sense than ever? Father is so desperate to get Ramsey married that he murdered Count Edward to make it so once Ramsey had chosen Audra at the oddly convenient time of her wedding. But now that Audravienne is tainted with mourkatili, she can’t produce heirs and Count Edward died for nothing. If they move forward with the court case, and all is revealed- we could lose everything.” Lottie urged her mother as Yalin started crying as fear and panic gripped her own chest.
“Say nothing for now, to anyone, not even father or your brother. Do not let on that you know any of this. Maybe there is still a way to hang the Morrigans on the mourkatili and prove Audra’s innocence and leave it at that.” Yalin insisted as she fought to find her composure.
“But what is worse is I fear that Axal will meet the same fate. Axal has caught Ramsey’s eye and heart from what I can tell and Ramsey will never let Axal go so that he can embrace Audra and Audra has no wish for Ramsey, it’s plain for everyone to see. But I know that Father is unyielding and Father will make her choose Ramsey if she doesn’t want her own neck in a noose because he could as very well put the poisoning on Audravienne, father has the ability and connections to tamper with the evidence and then turn that tampering on Audravienne, it could be “proved” that she was the one to kill him via Wolf Eye, once things are tampered with- it’s all ruined.” Lottie professed.
“And with Charlico mated to Heavencrest, there is no escape for Audra. She can’t flee to the colonies because Charlico will find Heavencrest, the way all mated pairs of griffins do. Audravienne is trapped, whether she knows it or not but Father will make her aware of it. It’s just a matter of time. And father can always just buy one of Ramsey’s other lovers, have them moved into the palace and pass off their children as Audra’s children to make them legitimate heirs and lock Audra away to make it seem like she becomes pregnant.” Lottie fretted.
“But that means that Audra will be just another prisoner, just another pawn like before. She will be miserable and will drink herself to death, she has enough self respect to not put up with it. It won’t work. If she can not find happiness and contentment, she will be gone. And I swore to her I would protect her from another life like that. And I have every intention of keeping my word.” Yalin insisted.
“But what can we do?” Lottie asked.
“I don’t know, but we will think of something.” Yalin reassured her daughter.
“For now, just...try to get some sleep, and watch over Jane and Audra and Axal. Don’t let any harm come to any of them, make sure to be the first to eat and drink everything offered to them, your own moura genes will protect you, as will the servants. I will find a solution as fast as I can.” Yalin swore to her daughter before she saw her daughter out and then got undressed and retired to her own bedroom where her husband was already fast asleep as Yalin slipped into bed with him and stared at him wearily, if not with fear and a good healthy dose of mistrust.
For all of their marriage they had both loved and admired the other’s cunning and ability to play intrigue better than anyone else in court and in business so that they always came out on top. But she never would have thought her husband capable of actual murder and if Gregori had poisoned Edward, she knew that with Audra being so close and so “attainable” he wouldn’t stop there. Gregori would absolutely kill Axal, he would kill Jane, he would even kill Audra if it meant that his own deeds would never be known and her own family would be torn if not beyond ruin if it was found out. She needed to encourage Demsey Voyambi to take Audra as a bride for himself sooner than later because it was clear to her that he had a deep affection for her and she knew him capable of truly loving her and giving her the loving home life she so desperately wanted. And she needed to find another option for Ramsey that would tempt Gregori off of Audra. Come the morning, she would be talking to Axal herself to find another solution and everyone would just have to accept that nothing more could be done in your case.

Devoted: Stream (Katlaska) - Kamylove
Sixth in my collection of unrelated one-shot ficlets. This time with Covid!
Young, untreated, self-medicating Katya was an introvert whose greatest fear was embarrassing herself.
Sober, almost-38-year-old Katya is an extroverted introvert who embarrasses herself daily and whose love language (and she only knows this thanks to Trixie the romantic, honest) is touch, and whose attention span is shorter than a ferret's.
Self-quarantine is killing her.
She was in Europe when shit started going to hell. She got out just in time, flew home to have her temperature taken at LAX, and was told to lock herself up for two weeks before she could see another human being.
It sucks.
Other queens (including Alaska, damn her) are doing Instagram lives, dragging up for shows on Twitch, collecting tips on Venmo and Paypal. Katya's ADD ass can't get herself together to unpack, let alone do her job virtually, but she still craves the attention.
Worst of all, Alaska is quarantining somewhere else. Somewhere Katya can't go. Somewhere that is not their house.
Alaska was home in LA when it happened, the lucky bitch. Alaska is a hypochondriac who would lose her mind if she had to shelter in place all alone, and Katya didn’t want to risk infecting her or the staff of a hotel. So Alaska, after much convincing, had decamped to the house she used to share with her best friend.
She's facetiming Katya every day, several many times a day, and dropping off care packages on the front steps. But Alaska needs drag to stay sane, so she's up in everyone's Insta, writing new damn songs for digital drag shows, agreeing to another and another and another show every hour. Or that's what it feels like to Katya.
Trixie's up on Insta, too, and Twitch. Trixie's doing live performances from her condo. PEG was even smart enough to invite Fena to do a digital show, which is fierce and fabulous because Fena is fierce and fabulous and Katya loves her like a brother.
But Katya's still got all those emails and voicemails sitting untouched on her phone. You'd think she'd be dying for any variety of human contact, and she is, but the thought of being productive right now is just too much.
Oh, look, there's Alaska on her friend's live again. There's Alaska laughing and being adorable and sharing space with--actually sitting next to--a human.
Katya loses all self-control and comments, "Bitch I am losing my self-quarantined mind STFU and call me."
And she does it from her public account, like an idiot.
The host of the live squints at the screen. "Oh, honey, your favorite Russian spy is stir crazy. We love you, Katya."
"Aww, Katya," Alaska's former-slash-temporary housemate says. "We miss you, gurl."
"Katya's here?" Alaska says. Katya can see her scrolling up on her iPad screen, because she'd obviously missed Katya's comment. And it should not bother Katya that Alaska missed her comment, because she knows what comments on lives are like. She used to livestream her entire damn life.
"Oh, no," Alaska says, looking straight at the camera. “Poor Russian spy. I'll call you in a bit, okay?"
Other commenters have now caught on, unfortunately, because Katya is an idiot, and there's a swarm of comments about her. I love you Katya, hearts to Katya, and suddenly she's taken over the live and she feels awful about it. Like she needs to feel more awful.
She exits and texts Alaska, "I hate you all and please apologize for me for barging in. CALL ME."
She doesn't know what happens in the live after that, because she leaves her phone in the bedroom and goes to the kitchen to cheer up with some Skittles. Skittles make everything better, and she's almost out of them. Thank God for Postmates. And Alaska's care packages.
Alaska facetimes her just a couple minutes later. Katya rushes back to her phone.
"Don't fucking apologize," is the first thing Alaska says. She's retreated to her old bedroom, a space Katya is very familiar with, and is sitting under a window Katya recognizes. It's unreasonably annoying.
"I didn't want to make myself the center of attention," Katya says through a big mouthful of candy. “Sorry."
"You always want to be the center of attention," Alaska teases lightly.
"A drag queen with a pathological need to be on stage," Katya says. "Shocking."
"They all worried about you after you left. They miss you."
"Now I feel worse, so thanks for that."
"They love you. They love you even when they can't see you. Even my fans love you."
"Hahaha aren't you funny."
"But none of them love you as much as I love you."
Katya scowled. "Fuck off, making me feel better. I'm enjoying my miserly misery."
"I would like to remind you that I wanted to risk my life and stay home and bring you breakfast in bed every day, and you said no."
"Why the hell did you listen to me?"
"Hey," Alaska says with a gentler smile. "It's only six days before we can social distance together."
"Six days is forever."
"I've got to warn you, though, that when I get home, you are getting your wig on and getting on camera. I’ll paint you myself if I have to."
Katya doesn't have a rude answer to that, and she doesn't want to give a polite one. She pouts instead.
Alaska can read her pouts, though. This one doesn't mean, That's an awful idea, don't make me do it. It means,
.
Alaska laughs at the pout and says, "Let me set up something digital for you? I'll do all the legwork and you'll just have to show up. I know you miss the fans as much as they miss you."
"Point one," Katya says. "I, unlike you, do not enjoy getting all dragged up with no place to go."
"Point one,” Alaska counters. “Yes, you do. Point two, you would have a place to go!"
"Sitting on the couch with an iPhone camera does not count as a place to go. But point two, if I start Instagramming live I'll never stop, and we both know where that would lead."
"Embarrassing personal revelations and masturbating on camera?"
"Precisely."
"Oh!" Alaska brightens with an idea. “You know what the world really needs?"
"A vaccine and a new president?"
"An episode of UNHhhh with the two of you in your pajamas and full face! And I'm going to make it happen!”
It's another good idea Katya doesn't want to admit is good. "Don't make promises you can't keep, bitch," she says.
"I'll keep it. I'm drafting an email to World of Wonder right this second."
"You're not. I can see you."
"In my head. I'm drafting it in my head." Alaska produces a pen from somewhere and writes in the air. "Dear WOW, Katya's lost her mind and I know this is hard to believe, considering, but I think more UNHhhh will help her find it. Also, if you don't make her do something," which she underlines in the air with a flourish, "with all that talent, I'm never doing Bro'laska again. So there."
"Please. You’re never doing Bro'laska again anyway."
"I’ll never sign on to Werq the World?"
"As if a major recording star like yourself would sink that low in the year of our lord 2020. Face it, you have no leverage here. Maybe if you said you’d never make another appearance on Drag Race...”
"Oooh," Alaska says. "Buuuuurn."
Katya tells her to fuck off.
After she stops laughing, Alaska says, "Let's have dinner tonight."
“On Facetime? Like always?” It's something they often do when their schedules put them in different time zones.
"No, for real.”
“Still not looking to pass on my potential plague,” Katya says.
“I’m sure you’re not sick," which is what Alaska says every time the topic comes up. "But no, listen. I’ll bring takeout. Whatever you want. You sit inside the back door, and I'll sit out on the patio."
"Hmm," Katya says.
"At least I could see your gorgeous face without a camera or a window."
"At a socially safe distance of at least 10 feet. In case I drool. Which I might."
"Are we on, then?" Alaska asks.
"Anything I want? Would that include watching me jerk off?"
"I would absolutely love to watch you jerk off."
"Then it’s a date," Katya says. "As long as I still have enough Lysol to coat the entire patio."
