Tabris is one i don't talk about much but has been featured in several microfics and has a part in my longfic The Wrong Warden. She's abrasive and has her guard up, but finds friendship and love with Zevran.

This can be a tough week for a lot of people and I just want to remind anyone who needs to hear it that this week really does end and there is life beyond it. ✊🏽

I want to sincerely share a thank you to each and every single person that included my small business in their gift giving this year. It really means a lot to this small business mama. My business has been my passion since September 2015, one day I will have my dream boutique 🙏

Me: *yearns to be taken care of* Also me: “I got it” “I don’t need help” “I handled it already” “It didn’t occur to me to ask” “I’ll just do it myself”

Plot twist: it did not provide long term pain relief. Yesterday turned out to be awful, but I've got joe giving me regular massages now 😁

If you're new here, you should know I have a nightmare mother in law and I vent about her here because i hate making joe listen to me bitch about her over and over. He knows she's a nightmare, but his parents are literally all the family he has left, so we deal & hope my father in law outlives her.

Seems like a good time to once more show off this guy who hangs out on my desk.

I talked joe into NOT going on christmas day, so I get to enjoy my day off in bed with a book after all. Still going the following weekend, but I keep reminding myself she can't live forever.

My back just cracked like a glowstick and after a moment of intense pain I was able to breathe deeply again. I guess it's just been in a bind for 2 months? We'll see if the pain continues to decrease.

My mother in law called yesterday to gloat. "I knew that wasn't going to work out. My baby could never leave me and go that far away. Now we can have xmas together!" Yes. I'm so glad to spend yet another xmas without my family.

Joe's going to be home within the hour! 🎉🎉🎉 Oh my god I have missed him like crazy. This last month has been the 2nd hardest thing I've ever endured.

Hera would disapprove of any prudish or preachy behavior. She'll outright leave for cruelty to the undeserving.

My AO3, where all my DA fanfic is posted: archiveofourown.org/users/Sereni... I also post the happenings of my Dragon Age tabletop group weekly. It's absolute chaos in the best way. "Dragon Age TTRPG Shenanigans" should find most of the posts if you'd like to check them out.

Hello new followers! Comms are currently closed while I work on patron gifts, but the waitlist is available! All relevant links are below, but be sure to check out all the perks that come with my Patreon subscription.

"I asked ChatGPT and..." Well I asked the Cryptmaster and he said stop lollygagging you undead oaf and get on with it

With Joe coming home, the move is in a nebulous postponed state while we pivot with a new plan. Which means I need to unpack (or at least make accessible) all my yarn and supplies sometime over the next week.

Because I'm bad at this whole internet thing, I replied to this earlier with my fics. I ALSO CROSS STITCH! And sell patterns! ko-fi.com/faierius

Most of my Dragon Age art is crochet and fics! Crochet 🧵: bsky.app/profile/blac... Fics 🧵: bsky.app/profile/blac...

Yes! I am working on making amigurumi of every companion and have made lots of Wardens, Hawkes, and Inquisitors! linktr.ee/CuriousThimble

Either my mother had a magic jewelry box that grows jeweley, or my sister just found ANOTHER stash inside one we have 4 witnesses saying we emptied it completely. Y'all I am so confused. We sorted jewelry for more than 13 hours and now there's more 😅

Dear friends, it is important that you see my beautiful Queenie.

Genuine romantic affection. Hera is a sex worker, so she's spent a lot of time acting out love and romance without really feeling it. Love tokens abd words don't work on her. But when Alistair gives her a warm coat and the last rose of Lothering, she melts. Still very bad at it, but she learns.

I can't wait to see Joe again. A month without him has been torture. I'm do for a long, long hug and a massage. A lot of our plans have collapsed in the last 24 hours, but as long as we're together again we'll figure something out.

Joe's new job fell apart. 😶 So... 🤷‍♀️

I would like if the universe would quit fucking up my life please.

Yay they fixed my computer AND the heat! It's still chilly but I'm not shivering anymore.

I'm out of boxes, so I decided to open up the crochet box and work on Joe's dragon. Friday I'll pick up more and try to wrap up the bedroom over the next week. I hope one Uhaul truck will be enough, because we seem to have a lot of furniture.

I have to use the manager's office because my computer won't turn on. So I have all my cash and papers spread out and a mgr comes in, looks around, and goes "wow... I'm really appreciating how tidy you keep your desk now." Because this is a disaster

One of my sisters spent all weekend trying to convince me that I want my mom's (untrained, poorly behaved) large dog, another cat, crappy furniture from the 90s, and broken bird statues my mom had. SHE doesn't want any of these things, but she thinks I should 🙄

Christmas villages are Warhammer 40K for aunts.

I want to see a hardcore wh40k xmas village and no I don't really know what that would look like

💙 Hera is passable. She's not getting thrown off stage, but if given the chance will always put Zeus in front to sing. ❤️ Hawke is very good at pub songs. 💚 Morwen sings very well but it embarrasses her. 💜 Rook is also very good at pub songs. Very... Enthusiastic.

Packing is teaching me two things: 1. Outside of books, art, and craft supplies (granted it's a LOT), I don't actually own much. 2. If you give my husband a piece of candy he will keep the wrapper for 20 years.

Me: I need you. I can’t go on without you. Why do you want to hurt me? My lower back: Because you turned very slightly to the left.

My sisters have some very strange ideas of what life will be like after we move to texas. One of them thinks she gets free range to use my bath tub and "shop the pantry." ...i don't think they're going to like my answer.

I don't have the time or the yarn to make the new griffin pattern that released today, but you can believe I bought it 😆

The hardest part of recovering from a (almost 2 month long) back spasm is knowing the best thing for it is rest. I can't go lifting and tugging boxes just because standing up doesn't make me cry anymore.

Thei did a studye and founde out who ys awesome and capable of great thinges and worthye of love and the newes ys that it ys you.

Hera and Hawke are both very, very bad. Hera can make hot chocolate (the real kind, not coco) well, and Hawke is good at coffee. Morwen (lavellyn) works best over an open fire. Rook... Rook tries, to the horror and dismay of Lucanis 😆

My back is almost better- but every time I sneeze my soul dies a little.

You don’t write like AI—AI writes like you. Defend the em dash.

And reap the benefits of that loyalty! My patrons get all kinds of perks just because I appreciate them, and I know lots of other artists do the same for theirs.

We are exactly 1 month to Moving Day. We are about 70% packed.

I very happily leaned heavily on "laying down is the only way my back doesn't hurt" and have spent most of my day reading. No packing. No cleaning. Just a delightful knight in shining armor falling madly in love with humorous commentary.

One year, (not this year I am excited about this year) all my patrons will grt griffins as their patron gift. But they'll be purple or something lol

Yesterday was cookie and coco day at work. One of the managers (my work bestie I'm sure) saved me a plate of cookies, a cup, and a pack of coco and left it in my office ❤️
