Do you like video games? What's your favorite genre if so?
I do, but at a more casual level than other people. I'm not one of those intense gamers that know everything about the medium. I just play a couple of games and thats it.
The kinds I like are mostly stuff that uses my brain a lot. Puzzles, strategy, the like. I play a lot of online chess and strategy RPGs.
Recently, though, my dad had been trying to get me into turn-based RPGs (Specifically ones from the Shin Megami Tensei franchise because those are the ones he played a lot of when he was my age)...but I got absolutely destroyed in Nocturne's tutorial and haven't touched them ever since. Of course, it doesn't help matters when I'm now in a boarding school several kilometers away from my dad at all times.
My current favorite game rn, however, is Uplink, the hollywood hacking simulator. Both because its genuinely good and because I like poking fun at its portrayal inaccuracies while playing.

Jeremy de Tolly - Four
Live and let live.
No matter how it ended,
these lose and, under the sky,
Lie friended.
For foes forgive,
No matter how they hated,
By life so sold and by
Death mated.

WRIOYING
dynamics :
kitten x wolf
sunshine x sunshine protector
loves the beauty of life x needs to be taught to see life better
little spoon x big spoon
dusk sunrise x midnight moon
how they met :
ying and wrio met when he had finally gone up to the surface to get an errand done himself – until his sunshine spitfire (whom he had no idea who at that point in time ! ) rammed into him at full speed. needless to say, there was a lot of apologising, and lots of promises to buy drinks as an apology gift! it didn't take much for him to take up the offer from the girl who caught his eye ( and got caught on his leg. and hence, tripped. )
it was history from then on ;–) he didn't realise that she was a social worker who would be working alongside some fortress inmates who actually wanted to leave after their time ended !!! she was to help them with reentering society :3c
stolen glances at his office, the curtains ever so slightly drawn back to let them take peeks at each other . . . asking for more one on one meetings and insisting that it was "vital to the progress of the inmates" and sneaky kisses before leaving his office hehee.
soundtrack :
for lovers ( lamp ) ノ nocturne ( laufey ) ノ serendipity ( laufey ) ノ silent ( sam ock ) ノ lovesick ( laufey ) ノ bewitched ( laufey ) ノ this is how you fall in love ( jeremy zucker ) ノ little bit better ( caleb hearn ) ノ life with u ( lullaboy ) ノ everything everywhere always ( elijah woods ) ノ valentine ( laufey ) ノ good in me ( lullaboy ) ノ where we're going ( elijah woods ) ノ under my skin ( nate smith )
alternate universes' :
sea goddess au
coworkers au
modern au
their love looks like :
warm blankets ノ surprising each other with gifts after work ノ sneaky kisses in each other's offices ノ soft smiles from across the room ノ making an extra mug of coffee in the morning ノ waiting for each other to come home for dinner ノ notes in each other's lunch ノ sleepy morning kisses ノ working late nights together ノ sneaking away to the storerooms ノ daydreaming during work hours
voicelines :
about wriothesley : " oh . . . my love ? archons, he's everything i could have ever dreamed of. "
about ying : " my girl ? yeah, that's my girl. what about it ? "

Fairyverse is a world where I imagine that background music is always playing; ever so softly, that you can hardly hear it. This is because I personally must listen to music whenever I write, and that music needs to be cherry-picked to fit the theme of whatever story/scene/character I’m currently engaged in.
Now, there are a few tracks I will listen to when I write general information regarding Fairyverse (I have a whole playlist but there are a few musical scores I go back to all the time), and I thought I might share them with you all, so that you may hear the general theme/vibe I’m going for.
I think I will also add the tracks I have (sort of) given to some of my characters as their supposed theme songs in Fairyverse. Is it their actual theme? No, but it is the tracks that sort of just clicked in my mind as being “theirs”, so to speak.
Also, not all fairies will be listed here, mostly just because I haven’t found a specific track that clicks with them yet, but I’ll be sure to update this post when that day inevitably comes around.

Harvest – ASKII

Done In by the Stripe-faced Dunnart
The stripe-faced dunnart (Sminthopsis macroura) is a small mammal found in the dry grasslands and shrublands of Australia. There are three subspecies distributed across the continent; S. m. macroura in central, eastern, and western Australia, S.m. stalkeri in northern Australia, and S.m. froggatti in the Kimberley region. These subspecies diverged from each other millions of years ago, but they bear such a strong resemblance to each other that the distinction was only recently discovered via genetic testing. Although they’re also known as the “marsupial mouse”, S. macroura is not a member of the rodent family. Rather, it’s in a separate family: Dasyuridae, a group of marsupials that also includes quolls (Dasyurus spp.), the Tasmanian devil (Sarcophilus harrisii), and the now-exctinct thylacine (Thylacinus cynocephalus).
S. macroura is one of the smaller marsupial species, at only 15-19 cm (6-7.5 in) long. The tail accounts for nearly half that length. The species is sexually dimorphic, with females usually weighing about 15 g (0.17 oz) and males coming in at 25 g (0.88 oz). Otherwise the sexes are identical: pale grey or brown fur with a dark stripe running down between the eyes that gives the species its namesake. The coloration allows the stripe-faced dunnart to avoid predators like snakes, hawks, and foxes.
Breeding for the stripe-faced dunnart occurs from July through February, and females can produce two litters in a season. This species has the shortest pregnancy period of any mammal, taking only eleven days from fertilization to birth. Joeys remain the mother’s pouch for an additional 40 days, and she can carry and nurse up to 8 young at a time. After they leave the pouch the joeys will stay with their mother for up to 30 days, at which point they’re weaned. Females become sexually mature after only 4 months, while males take up to 9 months to mature, and both sexes can live up to 4 years in the wild.
Outside the breeding season, S. macroura is fairly solitary. Individuals maintain home ranges, although they’re generally not territorial. Within these home ranges, nests are made from grass and leaves or from digging burrows. At times the stripe-faced dunnart may share a nest with up to 8 others, although these arrangements are usually temporary. The species is nocturnal and spends much of its time foraging for insects and small vertebrates like lizards or mice. When food is especially abundant, extra fat is stored in the tail, which enlarges and becomes carrot-shaped. In the winter, individuals will enter a state of torpor, in which their metabolism slows and their body temperature lowers to reduce energy consumption by up to 90%.
Conservation status: Although the IUCN has rated the stripe-faced dunnart as Least Concer, this species is threatened by overgrazing and trampling of their native grasslands. Habitat clearing and fragmentation are also harmful, as are feral cats which directly impact the species population.

Prairiewolf - Lagniappe Session (Deluxe Edition)
A couple months back, I let y'all know about Prairiewolf's Lagniappe Session over on Aquarium Drunkard, featuring covers of Yo La Tengo and Eddie Harris/Melvin Jackson. Now, that session is available as a pay-what-you-want download on the Bandcamp. Lossless, if you're a FLAC freak. But wait, there's more! If you're a true sicko, we've added the 34-minute unedited version of "Silver Cycles." Deluxe! We thought we'd post this one today, the first day of Hanukkah, because of that Yo La Tengo synergy.
It's been a fun year for Prairiewolf. We sold out of two vinyl pressings of our debut (CDs are still available, dudes!); we played a lot of shows, each one of them radically different from the next; we hung out with a lot of cool Colorado music lovers and musicians; we even got started on LP #2! Thanks to everyone who bought a record, shared a bill, set up a show, ran sound, listened ... you are the real heroes.
We even got some press. Always fun to see how people respond to that crazy Prairiewolf sound! Here's a smattering of semi-raves.
Raven Sings The Blues: The album’s most appealing endeavor is the erosion of barriers between the slow motion tessellations of spiritual jazz and the pastoral hues of Kosmiche.
The Slow Music Movement: Sounds like it was recorded in a Hawaiian beach bar & someone seems to have slipped a tab into the easy listening communal water supply.
Mojo: Faintly psychedelicised tiki bar easy listening.
Petal Motel: The entire record is monumental, heady and meditative and rambling yet intentional. More hook and less wook – although there’s truly something for everyone here whether you’re into spiritual jazz, electronic ambient, kosmiche jam, and beyond.
M. Sage: Spaghetti prairie jams for astral ranch hands.
The Boulder Weekly: A vibe-forward feast of texture and rhythm taking listeners on a laid-back journey to the far reaches of the universe.
Tablet: Will it sound a little like elevator music to some? Sure. But this is an elevator you could live inside.
Aquarium Drunkard: Listen and you’ll hear it…the howl of the Prairiewolf. On their self-titled debut, guitarist Stefan Beck (Golden Brown), keyboardist and synthesist Jeremy Erwin (The Heat Warps), and bassist Tyler Wilcox (who Aquarium Drunkard and Doom and Gloom from the Tomb readers know well) explore kosmische drifts, nocturnal guitar tangles, and expressively jazzy passages.
Spectrum: Music for a chill-out tent inside a biosphere, retro sounds for an alternate future, an intriguing mélange of artificial and natural, machine and human.
The Long Play: Exotica/ blunted Americana wafts, insular space rock and mountain-side streams.

Shadowmoon Legacy Part 2: Settling In
Before she could even think of looking into the dark corners of Forgotten Hollow though... something had to be done about the dismal state of her new home. The last thing she wanted was for a spider to crawl over the books she'd be pouring through soon enough. Luckily she wouldn't be cleaning up the place alone.
Making the drive from San Myshuno, her best friend Jeremy was more than happy to come out to lend a hand. A teacher for the local high school, Jeremy was often busy but was more than a little curious to see where his childhood friend was going to be living.
While they couldn't do much about the cracking walls and distressed paneling, a clean sweep makes a big difference.
Oh and a bit of greenery as well to bring a bit more life to the place.
After a day of working on what they could, the best way to break in a new house was in order. Pizza and some less-than-clear TV watching! The place was far from settled, and maybe not quite up to code yet, but having her friend over made it all the better.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So, here we have the introduction of another character for this challenge. Jeremy McCoy, a teacher in San Myshuno and childhood friend of Charlotte. I went back and forth for a while on whether I wanted to make more sims for this or just use the premade townies. In the end, I settled on a bit of a mix.
Here's a better shot of Jeremy, he's Book Smart, Analytical, and Motivating. I wanted Charlotte to have a friend to help out with her research and figured a similarly bookish sim would fit that well.
Oh and don't worry I've got some nocturnal friends already made that Charlotte will meet soon enough.

Getting to Know Svartalfhild
Thanks for the tag @late-nite-scholar! Tagging @boxingcleverrr, @celamity, @betweenrivers-betweenworlds, @luvlins, @fruityculture, @inertial-reel and @princecharmingtobe, should any of you be inclined to have a go at this.
Last Song
Last Movie
Jeez, it's been a long time since I watched a movie. Probably Emma (1996). I watched it with my friends a few months ago, since they hadn't seen that version. Jeremy Northam is my favourite version of Knightley. Also loved hearing my friends' reactions to the wild Ewan McGregor appearance.
Currently Reading
Nothing at the moment. Last thing I read was The Road to Neverwinter, which is the Honor Among Thieves prequel book that goes into more detail about Edgin's backstory, his relationship with Kira and Holga, and how they met Forge and Simon. It's pretty good. I liked it even more than Doric's prequel book.
Currently Watching
Nothing, really, save for the usual Critical Role every week. I'm super looking forward to Castlevania: Nocturne dropping on September 28th, though.
Last Searched for Art/Writing Purpose
Did some fact checking on the Unofficial Elder Scrolls Pages (my beloved) about Ordinators for an ESO fic I'm working on.

Heart of Stone
To gaze in the eyes of a mystery, and not trouble for its name… I'd be sleepless for weeks. So, my love, I hope you forgive me… another small absence.
It really is a small gesture.
She lays upon its rock paws a pouchful of flower petals she'd been saving. And then she leaves.
It's odd. Hollowness is all that's down here. Even in her chest, just now, she feels there's only an echo of her heartbeat.
But ever and after, tucked underground, a stone-sharing God will dream of her, and she will be protected.
Jeremy Bernstein & Douglas Austin
🌛🌚🌜🌛🌚🌜🌛🌚🌜🌛🌚🌜🌛🌚🌜🌛🌚🌜🌛🌚🌜🌛🌚🌜🌛🌚🌜🌛🌚🌜
Dreams of Stone
The conversion from the earthly plane to this nocturnal abyss, below the world of the awake, had inhabited her purely a few moments; and only a being of the sublime existence of mind could have balanced themselves to any extent in a circumstance so remarkable.
Heavy-eyed, she awakens to find her dusky cheek resting on the cold slab. A floral fragrance fills the air. The acquainted aroma intoxicates her senses; and only now does her heart truly beat, reverberating, overwhelming the body. For she knew it was the stone-sharing God she had dreamt of, and she now will forever be shielded in his love.
Walata M.
Ezekiel 36:26 — King James Version (KJV 1900)
26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you a heart of flesh.
Photo by Svetlana Smirnova, “Heart of Stone”
