Welcome, darling,

Our Lady of Wild Beasts is finally finished - in the sense I've finally got to the end of the outline I had drafted originally, and have published the last chapter that will be posted on Ao3. It will be turned into an original novel fairly soonish so will be pulled from the web shortly to avoid copyright issues.

If anyone would like a copy of the Ao3 fic in PDF form please leave a comment here or send a message.

There's been considerably more interest in OLWB than I'd anticipated - sorry for making the fic disappear, all!

I'd been hoping to publish it as an original work on Royal Road & Patreon asap because I have no income at the moment and rapidly diminishing savings after taking time off from my last job.

If you do stumble across this blog after that time please leave a comment or send me a message as I'm always happy to send the link to the fic.

GINA PORTER — High School Musical: The Musical: The Series Season 4 Teaser Trailer

Yesterday I almost cried because my baby cousin ran up to my grandmother and was like. “Ha! Buhbuh ba ha.” And she said okay you want to show me something? And he led her over to the garden patch and crouched down and pointed at rocks and plants and was like. “Ah. Habah ba ah” as she listened attentively.

And I was like that happened 1,000 years ago. Probably 10,000 years ago. Maybe 100,000. The youngest human in a group went to the oldest one and said to the best of their ability “come see.” And the adult went.

this is such a beautiful post it doesn't need my dumb addition, but i can't fit this in the tags. at the archaeological site Dolni Vestonice in the Czech Republic there are a bunch of really really fascinating finds and I'm only going to tell you about one tiny detail of one of the most interesting sites in the world.

at this settlement 20-30,000 years ago there lived a person who appears to have been a sort of sorcerer-grandmother-ceramics artist and her workshop was preserved very well in the sedimentary layers. her hut where she had her kilns was full of little sculptures of animals and people that seem to have been made to explode in the kiln on purpose, we're not sure why but nevermind. the relevant detail is that when you sculpt something with your hands and then fire it, your fingerprints can be preserved in the surface of the clay forever, so we have fingerprints of ancient ceramics artists that have survived for tens of thousands of years. and one of the major artifacts from Dolni Vestonice has a fingerprint on it that is so small it could only have belonged to a child

so this shaman-grandmother-sculptor, who was buried with her pet fox by the way, had children running through her workshop and touching everything she made while she was at her mysterious work of creating the world's oldest ceramics, none of which appear to be bowls, bottles, pots, or any "useful" items at all, but rather a collection of animal and human and sometimes anthropomorphic figures, some of which appear to be self portraits. exactly the same as sandersstudios' grandmother being led to the garden by an excited baby. we've all been the same for 30,000 years.

I DON'T CARE what you say...these two would have made an awesome trek couple! Well, yeah they needed someone he'd have to defend and protect & Bev wouldn't have that....still they look good!

Was rewatching Deep Space Nine and was quickly reminded of the beauty of Jadzia's wedding dress and how much I loved it.
