Fall 2023 Behind-the-Scenes Reading
Do YOU want to see what I spent my first semester in grad school reading? Of course you do. (There's a lot of Indigenous and queer scholarship.)
Usually, when I finish a reading that I know will be on the quarterly post, I write the small blurb as soon as I’m done, and I did start this semester doing that… but then came the annotated bibliography assignment. I had to stop doing blog write ups of my reading, because I had a big academic write up of my reading to do. But I’m back now! (It’s winter break and I only have teaching prep to…

i think its amazing how many times someone can clone themselves. staring at a face that looks just like yours. not all of them, though. it's a rough process to perfect.
loose bones, sloughed skin, too many features. or not enough.
you end up so so familiar with every part of the body that can go wrong. exactly which nerve to cut. exactly which artery to sever.
its amazing how many times you can clone yourself.

Yllis sad backstory unlocked???
AAAHH okay so the short version is 'girl performs a feat of experimental magic that ends up killing her brother (who raised her and was the most important person to her in the whole wide world), proceeds to lose her hinges'.
She and her brother lived in a little place in the Lower City in Baldur's Gate while she pursued her career and apprenticeship as a wizard, but even before The Incident, she was a wizard, which meant she was subject to a certain level of self-assuredness bordering on hubris, and like many wizards, this manifested in trying to perform magic she was unqualified for. She doesn't remember what it was she was even trying to do, but it ended up with her half-blind and her brother dead.
Her response to this while nearly bleeding out from a magically-induced facial laceration was not just, "Dear gods what have I done?" it was, "Dear gods, what have I done? I have to fix this," because even having clearly just Found Out, she was still a wizard, which meant she wasn't about to stop Fucking Around.
And to a wizard who is heavily grieving and fresh out of an incredibly traumatic event, Fucking Around looks a lot like enchanting a loved one's dead body so that it won't rot and speaking to it every day while you direct increasingly concerning questions to your teacher/employer until they finally notice the haunted look that has begun settling over you and make the wise decision to cut off the arrangement before that particular pot boils over.
She got better. Eventually. Ish.

found the ruin of house isner. it took kinda a long time but to be fair all the books were already in the library i just needed to read them. But reading the markov books is not very interesting and also the font isnt really that great I dunno. maybe my distance from the screen is bad for readability or something. but it was kinda straining my eyes to skim through that many books to find it. But! i found it and also the gun kinda sucks ass anyway. its an achievement though.

I BET NOBODY EVER EXPECTED TO SEE THIS ON MY TUMBLR DID THEY. So. Uh. I just finished a glorious mutli-day binge session of Flux Buddies with @micer2012 and @psihawaii and it was so fun. Decided to doodle the new freaks to my collection. I had way too much fun with these little chibis. These could be used as stickers if you have sticker paper you can gladly use it I guess lol :D

Dalinar in the situation I was in today where the shirt he is wearing is just a little bit too small and the lunch he had at the Mediterranean place next door to target was just a little too large and so while he’s doing his weekly grocery shopping he’s inconspicuously trying to pull down his shirt because every time he takes a deep breath BOOM large belly happy trail visible for all the good people of target. When it was happening to me I was mildly embarrassed but I also thought this is such a Dalinar ass experience to have. And im sure i can jack off about Dalinar going through it later. Somehow its a touch less sexy if its you and you are the one accidentally wearing a slutty outfit to target. But Dalinar could pull it off. Oh boy he could pull it off.

I’ve realized Nano and Lalna are Zelda and Link coded (nothing specifically pertaining to the new game just in general)
it Is kind of specifically pertaining to the new game bc they don't like. Interact in 80% of them lmao. so Tears is one of the few games they have a dynamic in
Anyways here's not that
Wind Waker fits them the best and is also funny, but I got distracted by Twilight Princess because I love it and it'd make a cool AU

Would I want to make a not thing that just isn't that evil, just so very confused... Or just make an au for Not-Doctor because throwing all the feelings always just sounds like a funny thing to do.
