I have to say that I may only be like 80 pages in but I’d do anything for Bonedog. The best of boys.

I love the way T. Kingfisher/Ursula Vernon offhandedly mentions that her characters are stacked. It's always like, "I have not been able to sleep on my back since I was 14" or "I had to crawl on my stomach and my boobs do NOT accommodate me crawling on my stomach." THAT is how you breast boobily.

Back from vacation! And instead of fixing my sleep schedule properly I made two fan covers of @tkingfisher ‘s fantastic fairytale book ‘Nettle and Bone’ cuz I have no self control xD

Also I haven’t drawn in a week and that’s waaaay too long for me. Anyway go check out the book!
It’s really fun and spooky and has the feel of an epic fairytale DnD campaign; with the fantastic cast of motley heroes—a sort of a nun princess, a fay stolen soldier, a dust-witch with a demon possessed chicken, a comfy fairy godmother who’s more then she seems and The Best Dog who happens to be made of bones—all off to save a princess from a wicked prince, while traveling through a deliciously creepy Goblin Market, a forest of sympathetic cannibals, and one of the most incredibly scary dungeon crawls I’ve ever encountered.

sometimes a family is a princess who isn’t quite a nun, some guy you bought at the goblin market, a dog made of bones, a lady that talks to the dead, her chicken with a demon in it, and your cringefail fairy godmother

Currently reading Nettle and bone by T. Kingfisher. I'm at page 53. It's mediocre writing (might be the fault of translation), but the vibes are ✨️ immaculate ✨️.
It's funny and creepy in a cozy way (dogs made of skeletons, legends of long dead grave robbers eating souls of people wandering around the castle). The main character just wants to chill and crochet and tend her convent's little garden. Honestly, same. Just 10/10.

The trees were full of crows and the woods were full of madmen. The pit was full of bones and her hands were full of wires.

Since a couple of people suggested I read Nettle & Bone next- here I am. Definitely going through a T. Kingfisher-phase at the moment and enjoying it immensely.

So I recently learned that cats can have allergies and I wonder how clan cats would deal with that. My personal oc Skysniffle is based off of myself and therefore he inherited my god awful allergies lol.
I am actually writing Sneezecloud with a moss allergy! It's something that was said in an authorial statement that I'm running with. There is a specific type of moss he is allergic to (which I need to figure out at some point)
Treating allergies is a two-step process;
Identify and mitigate Sneeze was born with his allergies, and was a sickly kit. At this point, Beechfur and Graymist had already lost a singlet litter, and were terrified of losing another. So there was a scramble to diagnose the problem... and only by chance did they figure out it was the moss in the nest. So now, as an adult, Sneeze has to go through an extra hoop to make sure his nest has NO moss. It's reeds, grass, feathers, anything else. They identified the allergen and try to limit his contact with it.
Treatment The best antihistamine they have for treating allergies is Stinging Nettle. Collecting this is a bitch and a half. But there's a trick; nettle stings because the prickles break off in your skin. Those prickles point DOWN, towards the tip of the blade. Moving from stem-to-tip is how you don't get stung. Sneeze is a MASTER at doing this, as he was sometimes sent out to collect his own meds and Mothwing made sure to teach him how to not get hurt. From there, nettle needs to be dried or cooked to neutralize the sting. Mothwing likes to dry it, because then it lasts a long time and takes up less space in the den.
ALSO PROTIP for advanced Clans like the ones in BB; Nettle can be made into clothing and cordage. The entire plant is valuable. Don't let nettle go to waste, it's valuable as a medicine AND a material.
