This one was the one I’ve been waiting to do. Especially Quincy doesn’t exactly talk. For CONTEXT, I believe I’ve touched on Quincy’s past before. But just to sum things up, Quincy’s childhood wasn’t easy. In fact, he really can’t remember anything before the age of 7. He and his younger sister Agatha were found… Continue reading Conversations with Younger Selves – Quincy

Conversations with Younger Selves – Willa
CONTEXT: Willa does really care about her family, and I feel like there is some residual guilt from how she treated them as a teenager. Kind of lashing out at her mother deserting the family and her dad/multitude of siblings (remember, she’s number 3 of 6) were caught in the crossfire, especially her sister, Emily,… Continue reading Conversations with Younger Selves – Willa
The First Sign of Autumn
He’s got a point, though. Halloween stuff is already up. The Pumpkin Spice is out in full force. People want Autumn and they want it NOW.
It’s the Humidity

Used to wear an eyepatch when she was younger out of self-consciousness, but as you can see, she ditched it later. Also, unless you are a mushroom, Oona ain’t interested. At all. I have such a soft spot for Oona. I… Continue reading Conversations with Younger Selves – Oona
Fanfiction Down
Archive of Our Own is truly, in my opinion, the best site for fanfiction. Which is why it was so frustrating it got hit by a DDoS attack this past Monday, taking it down for a good day or two. Probably could’ve been doing something else with my time. But I wanted fanfiction, dammit. And… Continue reading Fanfiction Down
Spirals
Saw an artist on Instagram post a lovely drawing, showing all kinds of spirals that exist in nature and how it continues with people. All I could think was “Uzumaki LOL.” Context: Uzumaki is a manga written by Junji Ito (a master of horror) about a town that gets taken over by spirals. It’s much,… Continue reading Spirals
Pondering
Are Rupert’s thoughts here perhaps my own? Yes, yes they are. And I stand by them.
