My mom loves to say "let's watch [X movie] [right now]!" as if I can just sit down watch a film on a whim without psychologically emotionally spiritually preparing myself first & as if I didn't already have plans & tasks & wishes & hopes & dreams & intentions & ambitions

With god-eyes you can see that butterfly wings are hands, and that they are constantly praying, clasped each time they perch to sip their nectar. asking for the sun to burn us up

How could you not be impressed by a bird in your yard? This dude can fly anywhere and it came here to hang out with you

🌱✨️ Let's go on an adventure!

So what? The literary world is always in the first detonation blast zone. Run towards the searing light. You don't want to live in the world without the arts. Become a writer.

A Chicago Pope implies the existence of an MLA Pope and APA Pope

Chicago-style pope................

Unstoppable force (the sacred call toward Conclaveposting) vs immovable object (the fear that people will think I'm Catholic)

Let us pray that God will grant us a pope who slays 🙏🏻

CBS on the cardinals: "One thing we know they're not doing is checking Instagram because their devices have all been confiscated. I believe the kids call it rawdogging."

born to be a cardinal scheming and altering the conclave vote, forced to do emails instead.

I need to dissect god and other normal thoughts to have at 8:30am

What if we kissed............ and we were both celibate Roman Catholic cardinals sequestered together for the papal conclave............

This is what happens inside the conclave and you cannot convince me otherwise

A perfume that smells like the cup of tea you leave as an offering at the edge of the woods, where each month at full moon you swear you can see the shadows solidify into a beautiful, terrible form

Have been vacillating wildly between "I am good normal & fine :)" / "I need to be taken to the seaside & put down" / "I am about to start killing & maiming" throughout this semester. as one does

being alive is just so unfathomably cool cant believe im about to go for a trot around the block. WHAT THE HECK DO YOU MEAN THERES A WHOLE BLOCK TO EXPLORE WITH SQUIRRELS AND BIRDS ARE YOU KIDDING ME? every dang day we are blessed with this. wow

When a character is struck with such anguish that they throw off their bonds of morality & religion and embrace Darkness with such gravity that they become a god unto themselves, their new, twisted morality now serving to bind others as they were once bound? That's hot

The thing in the woods would like to remind you that it will always be there for you -- if you need to be killed and eaten.

As a ghost, my favorite hobbies include: - Floating around the house - Slamming doors and windows - Moving various objects around rooms - Wailing late at night - Making rooms suddenly ice cold - Wandering beaches in flowy dresses - Startling people

○ Single ○ Taken ● Cursed to wander the forest beyond the village, never straying too close to the warmth of the hearthlight nor to the whispers that beckon from the foothills in the west, gradually assuming the form of the legend the folktales warned of

#thelockedtomb it's my 4th locked tomb-versary today, so here's my spin on HtN cover 💫

Can't do much on a large scale but for those hoping to maintain their own personal/community archives through this clownery—remember the 3-2-1 Rule of digital storage: 3 copies 2 different types of storage media 1 copy stored in a different physical/geographic location than the other two

Corrupted crown

To travel the stars, you must remember being a fish. You are not practiced with being horizonless, with experiencing infinity in every direction. But space is just another ocean, and your ancestors still watch over you, and they will guide you through the inky depths.

TOMORROW YOU WILL GRAB THE SUN WITH BOTH HANDS AND DEVOUR IT. FOR NOW HAVE YOU HAD ENOUGH WATER TODAY?

Awoke this morning into a sensation of doom, like a diaphanous shroud of dread suffusing the air & the arrow of time arcing before everything. However I have had some coffee & now the whimsy agenda is back on

Another thing you have to know about d&d is sometimes it's spending the afternoon with a handsome warlock at a tea shop (my character) & sometimes it's reckoning with unfathomable grief & then learning that in your pre-amnesia life you used to be an automated turbo-killer (my friend's character)

Slow down and enjoy the small things in life, like the silent arc of an owl through the forest, or the way the moonlight reflects in the eyes of the moss ghouls as they rise from their loamy graves.

(flirting) I would follow you to the end of Hell to deliver these divorce papers

(flirting) oh, this? yes, this is the very blade you killed me with

(flirting) would you like to fall from heaven? because I'll help you invent sin

What you have to know about d&d is that sometimes d&d means fighting a coven of hags alongside an enormous scythe-wielding scarecrow monster & sometimes d&d means inadvertently walking into an elevator at the same time as your ex. & sometimes these things happen during the very same session

[Group text] Please be aware some of your ravens are still texting me after hours. I thought we agreed telepathy only after 6 p.m.

Reading Harrow the Ninth is reaffirming in its way bc no matter what kind of day I'm having, I know that Harrowhark Nonagesimus is having a worse one

Once a year, you get to see a tree how trees see trees: ornamented in creatures and symbols, speckled with lights, and crowned by a fiery crystal

Prey dream of killing predators, predators dream of showing mercy. The king of lions has a pet lamb; the lamb-king lives in a lion bone house

Even as fossils, faeries shine, light pooling in their flattened wings & bones. At night, you can find them in the church masonry, gleaming Some architects insist on using blocks containing faerie fossil—the stones are rare, the buildings costly, but at night they glow holy, afire with iridescence

✨Happy New Year✨

If we must walk to the end of Hell, let's at least walk while holding hands across time & space, singing showtunes perhaps, & being insane about The Characters. Happy New Year to all & to all an adjective 2025 ✨

Not striving to be hot but to be something wreathed in ferns and foretold like a curse or disaster

new chess rules: -bishops now have a “religious schism” move -multigenerational storylines -you can pick who you romance -queens get flamethrowers -the emergence of an ancient evil threatens our fragile peace -three additional pieces called “the witches”

Seems like a good time for this winter set ❄️ The Hunter / The Warlock / The Battle / The Aftermath [ #art ]

Well if the fae wanted me to get LOST in the WOODS & the MIST, they wouldn't have left fae-lamps among the trees to light my way, now WOULD they?

Went out following lanterns & other strange lights through the mist

Deep in the jungle, you find a chrome temple, glistening like eyes under the moss. You hit its factory reset button; it asks you to define a god

So many Hallmark movies about a high-powered career woman & some sort of rustic man........ & where are the Hallmark movies about a high-powered career sorceress & the towering eldritch Yuletide beast who stalks the winter woods by night?

omg I totally forgot. I have to post... Mari Lwyds!!! and other frightening slavic winter beasts, for christmas #artpost

If you've prepared your Christmas tree properly, by now it should be: - humming softly - vibrating slightly - levitating a little - wreathed in Eldritch flame - whispering dark incantations to summon ancient elves
