CJ blinked her bleary eyes until everything came back into full focus.

“Mm, sorry. I stayed up reading until six a.m., then had like, twenty minutes of sleep.” Something in her follow-up smile suggested she wasn’t sorry at all. Vaguely, she gestured. “My focus is… everywhere, but I’m paying attention now. Swear.”

Both hands held onto one of the God's many blades, the other two secured on his back. If they were not sharpened then, in times of war or any moment in-between, the worst outcome could occur and he certainly would not fall. Not here. Not now. Ares wished to see the next bloodshed occur and to happily take part in it. If that fates allowed, of course. He studied the blade to ensure it was sharpened whilst talking to himself fully aware of the surroundings.

"there is no relaxation without bloodshed and death. It is path gifted by War yet precedes War all the same. Would you be aware of such information? I am rather interested in whether you agree with such events being important and more significant than anything else."

"thou art speaking in riddles and it is highly unamusing." He stares down at the phone screen with a scowl.

"THAT WAS NOT MY QUESTION!" In mere sections, the God King of the desert's voice boomed. Echoing in the confines of the throne room; a place often reserved for two sorts: those worthy to be within his presence for praise or those he wished to hear an answer from. Mutterings of a group putting their nose into information not involving them, ruining the eternal paradise he preserved for a departed loved one had finally reached his ears. And Deshret's fury was thousands of times worse than the deadliest sandstorm in Sum.eru. A finger pointed shakely as his eyes remained widened.

"The eternal oasis, what did you want from there and WHY have you trampled there? Do not lie as my newly appointed priests have my trust therefore their belief that it was you are believed first and foremost."

Imagine being JD Vance, who makes such a huge part of his personality being catholic. The pope himself takes time to lecture you on compassion then promptly DIES. The pope uses one of his last hours on earth to tell you that you suck at your religion on EASTER. And then DIES. Anyway RIP Pope Francis

Yesterday night, I asked my parents to remind me to return The Terror (2018) to the video rental store. This morning I woke up to two — momentarily confusing and concerning — text notifications:

I was rambling on the issue of museums and human remains and how certain populations are more likely to have their bodies put on display to be gawked at and then went "well I guess the Pompeii casts were of Europeans. there are bones in there right?" and Googled it to make sure, at which point I confirmed that yes there are bones in there, but more interestingly DNA testing revealed that a cast of an adult holding a child everyone assumed was a mother and child were, in fact, a man and a kid entirely unrelated to him. Honestly that's more moving to me. Maybe they were connected in a way other than blood, but maybe a stranger saw a child when the world was ending and thought the one thing he could do was hold them.

"No, I'm fine," Neoma answered in a flat voice. The empath had done it again. She'd shut herself down, closing off her emotions.
