Avra will give you all the confidence to do things because you can follow it up with "I am adjusting to my circumstances. I would appreciate it if everyone could feel bad for me." And it's a whole mood.

He really is the world's most pathetic wet cat of a man. Watch this space for Teveri and Julian later!

Interested in reading about his adventures? Check out Running Close To The Wind by Alexandra Rowland! It's already out in hardcover, but the paperback version comes out June 17th (US) and August 7th (UK). It's a delightful queer fantasy comedy about Avra (pictured) accidentally stealing the most expensive secret ever, running away to his on and off ex, pirate Captain Teveri az-Haffār about it, and a very hot monk called Julian helps too. There's also a plot-critical cake competition. Critique of power structures. Sea serpent biology. Y'know, all the good stuff

I can only second what @sabertoothjello is shouting.

There's also a discussion on how maybe holding hands can help avoid snakes. Which is important to know. For science.

I mostly just want to read fun books this summer.

This lives rent free in my heart and soul now.

It's what Avra would want.

please read Running Close to the Wind by @ariaste

Avra would love this. It'd be a great day out.

They’re researching the best ways to protect their cake next year. Julian is taking notes

Are black footed forest cats ever mistaken for strays and brought inside? Like that one post where someone accidentally tried to find a coyote's owners? In every picture I've ever seen they just look like....cats...are they particularly vicious or just not live where there are cat owning people or?

(not advocating for them to be pets of course just curious is anyone ever makes that mistake)

nope! for very simple reasons-

this thing hates you and everything your filthy human kin stand for.

unlike habituated coyotes, black footed cats are shy and avoid humans by nature and habit! you won't find them near human settlements, and if they hear YOU coming they'll take off long before you get into visual range of them.

they're notoriously hard to do a species census for for this reason! they want you to keep your big smelly ape hands to YOURSELF.

NO TOUCH KITY
