New male author character description dropped.

He asked what my tits look like and I sent this from my recent breast exam. He didn’t find it as funny as I did. No one appreciates my art 😔

As the sequels I outlined will likely never be made, their spoilers-

I had two sequels in mind for Jealous Gods. The first was "Vengeful Gods," and it covered Quail and Bridge as they evaded the consequences of the end of Jealous Gods, basically a cat and mouse across the globe where the mouse knows the cats every move, but there were some crazy wildcards and fun times. Also has Don return in a new form or a thousand because he copied his mind into many other people before the climax. Had a lot of stuff I wished Matrix did with the many Agent Smiths.

The second was called "The Lonely God" and covers Clarke's eternity, including his activity during the events of the Valhalla trilogy. He leaves Earth when the end of Gudsriki happens and it covers like a billion years before he willingly goes into the sun. The thing Bridge sentenced him to immortality for was that he destroyed something that would've been beautiful and amazing, and he's the only person who even knows what it was. So in the end, in the core of the sun after the heat death of the universe, is the one person who remembers and can never forget. Literally inspired by a kid who destroyed one of my drawings in high school and ended up being the only person other than me who saw it.

So uh, there's the whole basic scheme of my UCU (Unmade Cinematic Universe).

wait are you the tumblr blog who advertised some movie on youtube you were involved in that involved some college students getting wishes from some old guy in a cave? because that movie and its exploration of certain superpowers and their downsides is embedded in my brain but i cannot for the life of me remember what it was called, only that i learned of it from tumblr.

Yep, Jealous Gods, wrote and directed-

This is the best metaphor I’ve ever heard for casting in movies where all the “normal high school students” are 30 year old supermodels.

Who would you cast as Violet if your books got made? I'd pick Kendall Jenner.

Don't fucking tempt him.

Any Writing Professor: Do not name any two characters with the same letter, it will confuse your audience.

George RR Martin and Hidetaka Miyazaki: This is Radagon, who married Rennala, mother of Ranni who likes to pose as Renna, enemy of Rykard and Radahn. He is really Marika, Maliketh's Goddess, mother to Morgott (AKA Margit) Mohg, Malenia mother of Millicent, Miquella, possibly Melina and now Messmer, and she had them after she raised Godwyn and Godefroy with Godfrey, from whom Godrick is descended.

“There exists, for everyone, a sentence - a series of words - that has the power to destroy you. Another sentence exists, another series of words, that could heal you. If you’re lucky you will get the second, but you can be certain of getting the first.”

J. K. Rowling and Neil Gaiman are such a funny contrast to me, like Rowling: Oh, and by the way, I put gay characters in my books. People: Is there anything... showing that? Rowling: No. Also trans women don't deserve respect People: wtf Gaiman: Here are some immortals that transcend all human concepts of gender and attraction who use a variety of pronouns, and also some clearly canon human queers. People: Are the immortals queer? Gaiman: That is an entirely valid way to view them. Other people: Ugh, pushing a modern woke agenda. It used to be- Gaiman: Fuck you

Exclamation marks, but instead of a huge line of them, we do like Roman numerals of them.

You know. To save space.

I hate when I get a century ahead of my sex and have to wait 100 years for it to catch up.
