Cat on a roomba 😆

I entered the darkened room and waited for my eyes to adjust until I could make out a stooped figure in a high-backed chair.

"A visitor," they drawled, swirling a chalice of red liquid, "Care to join me?"

I strode over to the window.

"No!" the figure shrieked as I drew the curtains aside, bathing the room in sunlight.

"Hsss!" they recoiled, robes fluttering dramatically.

"Pat, put your wine away, you have conference calls to be in."

Your skills are not combat based.

You resolve conflicts through using your skills, talking to people, exploring, and puzzles. Plotlines might be tense but should never rely on violence.

But the world as a whole should just be a cool fantasy place to hang out in and explore. To set up a shop or go to parties or ... idk. Anything people might like.

I think about this all the time. I'd love to write for a game like this.

Reminder that you can turn off boosts for people who boost not CWed content but write CWs on their own posts.

Hi all! If you're in need of distraction and money is a barrier, I've made all my books free on itch.io!

That's a 422 page fantasy novel, plus a supporting novelette and short stories.

Review from RockStarlit Book Asylum: "Although its setting not exactly cheery, there is something utterly charming in this book that just won me over."

Please enjoy my unexpectedly charming novel about black magic.

And!

Geschenk zum 42er. Auch irgendwie passend. Prost.

I was still looking for an enby-suitable word to replace boy-/girlfriend that I would like, and after roaming the list of all english words with 1 syllabe starting with a B, let me present to you:

DnD item idea: Used Bag of Holding

It's like a normal bag of holding but everytime you try to retrieve an item from it, there's a 10% chance you pull out some random item instead. The pile of Stuff That Was Already There is seemingly infinite and topically comical.

The general consensus seems to be:

1) 20th Century Fox owns the "Alien" franchise.
2) "Alien" xenomorphs are born from a Queen.
3) Disney is buying 20th Century Fox.
Therefore
4) Xenomorphs are Disney princesses.

also consider the fact that we're accustomed to thinking through the anxiety and panic while others without chronic anxiety are not. like, it may as well be a damn super power in times like this. like dont neglect to take care of yourself, but also we're just unusually well equipped, emotionally, to handle anxiety.
