Elf enjoyer, fountain pen & ink dork, loves shouting and fantasy novels and shouting about fantasy novels. Sometimes I post pictures of my ridiculous dogs. Pretty sure my Axolotl is actually Ursula Vernon’s. She/her. Shiny. High strung.

Go on. Do it, open the fairy door. You'll be fine. That mad fairy queen can't treat you worse than your boss already does, and at least being her mortal plaything would be interesting.
A miniature wooden door, complete with little metal knob, hangs in the middle of the post of a wooden fence. The tiny door is painted green. Next to it to the left, even greener ivy grows up the fencepost.

So I took history’s greatest monster in to the vet for his unsightly armpit rash (exacerbated by Ceres thinking he smells DELICIOUS and licking him until his rash looks like raw liver) and now my boy need Apoquel and antibiotics for two weeks, his poops will be egregious

I got some Platinum Chou Kuro and I am dithering over what nib to try it on. I’ve used Platinum Carbon Black in all manner of nibs both gold and steel without mishap so I’m not sure why I’m getting so anxious about Chou Kuro. YOLO, ima put it in a Pilot Prera and a Jinhao Shark and start scribblin

The Executioner is back, and frankly she's had enough of, well, just about everything. On pre-order: wizardstowerpress.co...
The cover of The Executioner's Blade by Andrew Knighton. Art by Ben Baldwin.

The image shows an older, white-haired woman with a big sword over one shoulder. A dragon's tail is wound around her body. There is a cityscape in the background, and more fantastic beasts in the sky.

the main reason i find fantasy lacking as a genre is that there is exactly one fantasy plot worth telling and we already got to it with Tolkien and it is "satan ran across the icy tundra, pursued by the giant spider who wanted to eat all his diamonds"

Today I recommended Julian May’s Pliocene Exile for a time travel rec request in the r/romantasy subreddit (I’m not THE DEVIL, I did caution it’s not a romance with an HEA or a main couple, I’m just saying several commenters would probably pick up Aiken or Marc’s vibes and go ham)

Just do what you can, while you can, where you are, with what you have. All possible worlds are made of that. If you want a better timeline, congratulations! You can get there one step at a time, from here. And, with deep condolences, that’s all we get, and we have to do it together where possible.

Image 1: A comic book panel. Emma Frost stands behind and speaks to Miss Piggy.

Emma Frost: Darling. I'm a telepath. May I read your midn to ascertain if you're telling the truth?

Miss Piggy: But of *course*, darling. I am an open book, a tell-all memoir.Image 2: A continuation of the same comic. Emma Frost's eyes glow white and her mouth is agape. 

Emma Frost: My god...

Behind her, a kaleidoscope of images of Miss Piggy in various scenes and forms, including dramatic action kick wearing spandex, wearing expensive-looking clothing, and wearing a tiara and being carried by shirtless men in a palanquin. There is a multi-colored star motif and several sparkle effects on the image.Image 3: two horizontal comic panels.

Top panel: Wolverine touches Emma Frost's shoulder from behind.

Wolverine: Frost? She legit? 
Emma Frost: She's... She's...

Bottom panel: a closeup of half of Emma Frost's face, eyes and mouth still wide with wonder. 

Emma Frost: "...She's *everything*. And I would *die* for her.

What's the Venn Diagram of Ratatouille fans and Neon Genesis Evangelion fans? #ratatouille #neongenesisevangelion #evangelion #nge
A drawing of Remy the rat from Pixar's Ratatouille sitting on a folding chair, hunched over, with a spotlight on him. The illuminated ground is splotches of red and purple. This is a reference to a scene where Shinji from Neon Genesis Evangelion does the same. There is a caption that reads "Get in the Linguini, Remy!"

A week ago I got my sixth tattoo (stained glass pomegranate and peony on my left-side scalp over my ear) and it’s now at the stage where despite faithful anointing with aquaphor and other skincare per instructions, it is dusting off little mites of color. Worst stage imo.
