OMG ILYSM this was so visceral, your writing is unreal

A Song of Sorrow and Guilt~ HOTD

For @flannelsandfatcats

⚠️Descriptions of stillbirth⚠️

It was imperfect; her enemies would jeer ‘diluted’, ‘tainted’, - ‘bastard’, but it was a dragon’s brood through and through. By the blood of Old Valyria, of Jaeherys, of her father Viserys. Of her blood. The blood of dragons. The dark hair of her two beloved sons did not make them any less Targaryen; they were the sons of dragons, not just by her ancestry but the blessing of Syrax and the dragons before her.

​Rhaenyra remembered the day she presented her firstborn to her dragon. Hobbling from afterbirth, red-faced, sweat dripping from her temples, Rhaenyra had raised little Jacaerys to the amber gaze of Syrax, speaking low and soothingly in the old, lilting language. Syrax had made a low crooning, rumbling sound, much like a purr from deep within her throat at the sight of the babe. Then she bent down and oh-so-delicately pressed her muzzle and maw against the top of his head, the gesture of a dragon’s kiss. A kiss from a god, a blessing for a future king.

​Rhaenyra did the same for Lucerys, for Joffrey, and she presented both Aegon and Viserys in the presence of her new husband. Daemon’s pride shown the moment Syrax and Caraxes both acknowledged his sons as sons and princes of dragons. In fact, Rhaenyra had never seen him more proud.

Freelancing in technical theater means you’re on a lot of different email lists. People need a crew, they send out an email, you respond with your availability. Now, most people start these with things like “hey folks” or “hi everyone”. Neal is not most people.

His openers started off innocent enough.

Then, he started to push boundaries.

And as you can see, it has spiraled out of control since then.

More inadvisable ways to introduce a replacement for a dead Dungeons & Dragons character mid adventure: 

Hanging from a gallows, apparently dead, only to speak up and request help getting down at the party’s approach; when they ask how you survived, simply remark that you have a very strong neck  

Appearing in a flash of light in response to some seemingly innocuous action, tearfully thanking the party for “finally breaking the curse”  

The next ogre or other large humanoid the party encounters is wielding you as a club  

Wandering aimlessly from around the next bend, peering at an enormous fold-out map and loudly insisting you could have sworn this was the way to Waterdeep  

Falling screaming from the sky, and landing miraculously unharmed; if questioned, mutter something about bats and refuse to elaborate  

(replacement character is at least one size category smaller) It turns out that you were in the deceased character’s backpack the whole time

If you ever, and I mean EVER think that you fucked something up royally, remember that the organizers of the 1904 Olympic marathon:

- Had zero stations for water on the 26 mile (42 km) course

- Accidentally gave North American competitor Tom Hicks a cocktail made of egg whites, brandy, and actual fucking rat poison

- Had a guy come into the race late wearing a beret and cutoff slacks, sneak into an apple orchard during the race because no food had been given to him for 40 hours, eat rotten apples, projectile vomit onto the track, fall asleep for hours, and finish in fourth place OVERALL because most of the other runners collapsed of exhaustion or injuries

- Conducted the race on a dusty road, which caused so much dust to be kicked into the air that an American runner somehow inhaled enough to tear his STOMACH LINING open

- Accidentally released feral dogs onto the track

- Fucked the other competitors up SO BADLY that Tom Hicks—the guy who ate RAT POISON and was HALLUCINATING the entire run—came in first place
