I’ve been editing Birds Fly on and off all day and it’s starting to really hit that we are in endgame. There are parts of the finale that make me grin evilly and parts that threaten to stab me in the chest and there are parts that make me want to cry like a little baby. But the overwhelming emotion that I feel is pride. I had so much fun writing this story, and I can only hope that those of you who have been along for the ride had a great time too.

Thanks for reading. 🔥🪶

Pros of vampirism: cool commissions from over 100 years ago. Cons? You have to pay to see them.

Important news: the timberdoodles are still peenting in the yard, and the local blue jay gang attempted a raid on the robin nest, but were unsuccessful. A common yellowthroat appears to have moved into the neighborhood, and besides the robins I have also heard veerys, wood thrushes, and swainson’s thrushes, rounding out the thrush brigade. A female and male ruby throated hummingbird are bravely defending the feeder, and a murder of crowd threw trash all over the place this morning. Quite a successful day, to be sure.

So how about an angsty au where Evelyn has her own manifestation of Caleb that haunts her

Both ghosts / hallucinations would be what they needed to see, but also what hurts them the most

What they don’t tell you about getting into bird watching is that once you get into it, you do not get to decide when you bird watch. You can be on the beach of some distant tropical country with nothing planned except relaxing. But then you see a Common Fluttering Nut Buster and you’re like fuckkkkkkkk holy shit guys the Common Fluttering Nut Buster is not supposed to life this far west holy shitttttttttt

There are flirty birds everywhere now, and I thought this scene with the Blue Jays was so cute. I recommend to unmute.
