Having real flashbacks to the time in middle school when religion class got derailed onto the topic of praying for someone’s Happy Death, like. Oh. You wanna bide your time for that, SSPX? Is that your plan now?

I finished (re-re-re-) listening to an audiobook! Honeymoon for One, by @keiraandrews.bsky.social! (I meant to be listening to her holiday novella collection on Hoopla, but then I saw this one and... it's always time for another listen, okay??)

I finished (re-re-re-) listening to an audiobook! The Curse of Chalion by Lois McMaster Bujold. Then I scrolled through other audiobooks for approximately half an hour before I gave up and accepted that the only thing I wanted to listen to next was Paladin of Souls, so I will be crying a lot.

I finished an audiobook! The Rose Rent by Ellis Peters, narrated by Patrick Tull. And this was the strongest "hey I think Lois Bujold has read this book" reaction I'd had to something in a while so now it's time to go listen to The Curse of Chalion for the seventeenth time.
Audiobook cover text reads: The Thirteenth Chronicle of Brother Cadfael, The Rose Rent, Ellis Peters, narrated by Patrick Tull. Recorded Books media.

#ficwip #wordgamewednesday WAIT From the next chapter of my currently posting Dreamling fic!
Dream awoke to the sounds of a whispered negotiation taking place approximately two feet away. 
 
"Deema's sleeping, darling," Hob was saying softly, voice lower and quieter than a whisper. "He was very tired yesterday. He needs to rest." 
 
"Wanna fly," Finn was insisting in a whisper as loud as any shout. "Wanna go birdie." 
 
"I know you want to try flying again as a bird, and I'm glad you're going to wait for Deema to be awake so he can join you," Hob said firmly. "But it's still dark out, darling, and Deema's still sleeping. Do you want to climb in and have a lie down with us for a bit longer, or do you want to help me make breakfast?" 
 
There was a tangibly thoughtful silence. "All snuggle?"  
 
"Yes, we'll all snuggle up," Hob promised. "You can be right in the middle, how's that." 
 
"Deema need snuggles," Finn declared, at the same time as he began making audible efforts to climb up into the bed.
