Safe Passage: Through the Wildlands of Capherayna by Karen Menezes—A Book Review

Safe Passage, Book I of The Chronicles of Capherayna. Available from Amazon and Amazon UK. Safe Passage by Karen Menezes is the first book of a three-part series: The Chronicles of Capherayna. Its official genre is magical realism. I’d also call it secondary world ecofiction, uniquely told in a folk/fairy tale voice. By way of content warning, themes include violence against children and…

Cinch had three charges in her care once, Celestia entrusted her with the day-to-day care of Prince Blueblood, the new Princess Cadence and her student Sunset Shimmer - running a kingdom is difficult enough alone without three young ponies to look after - so when Celestia is absent (often) that means Cinch was in charge of these three ponies. And while the matron of the castle was always rigid about rules and wanted her three charges to uphold her reputation and to build their own budding reputations high, she cared about them very much. You'd have to, spending your time with the same three young ponies for so long, guiding and teaching them to be their best...

By the time Ditzy came into the picture, Cinch was down to two charges. She refused to fail them the way she failed...

Well, with one down, there were two left and she cared so much she wouldn't let anyone ruin them, especially not themselves. Surely they would come to realize Cinch was only helping.

#my sketches #my little pony #mlp #equestria girls #eqg #sunset shimmer #abacus cinch #Princess Celestia #prince blueblood #ditzy doo #princess cadence #mlp fim #mlpfim #mlp g4 #my little pony friendship is magic #swap six #side stars au #(Doubt anyone will read the tags but if you do some bonus lore:#Sunset leaving meant Celestia decided to take over caring for her new student completely to try and fix her mistakes #so that's why Twilight isn't Cinch's responsibility and why she doesn't care for that one and whatever happens to her #but if Cinch was in the picture for Twilight she would NOT approve of her actions #not morally speaking Cinch is pretty firmly amoral #but Twilight would probably be a humiliating blight on her already tenuous reputation #so y'know - that's why Cinch is bothered with Blueblood and Cadence but not Twily)#Cinch is not a good person and she will not be receiving a redemption once things fall apart - she definitely screwed up these kids #but she does legitimately care about them its just she is such a damaged old mare that her help hurts them more often - her redemption #if she gets one - will definitely be therapy or sumn...#(also sorry for the art absence losing a big platform depressed me and also I'm a busy person but fuck it we ball)

Sewing shirts always includes the Awkward Tanktop phase, so enjoy Quinn's early 2000s breakdancer moment~

And here's the finished t-shirt ✨

he is my little creature 🧍‍♂️

Sewing tip of the day: I always use old clothes for these types of projects, and it's a good idea to just cut your patterns around pre-existing hems, so you can have nice clean stitches 🤌

I've already started work on his jacket 🧥

Rocking the retired fisherman look 👌

#lacecraft chronicles #the t-shirt looks fine from the front but the back is a complete mess 😩#it was too big so I had to cinch it and just hotglued it aurghhhh it's not great :'D #covering it with a jacket immediately 👍

the new sigiswald POV short story in hanne5 just convinces me further that he and dietelinde would've made the perfect couple. oh my god, they would've been so good (terrible) together. *sigh* i've tried so hard to create the AU where it happens, but kazuki-sensei plotted this thing too tightly!!! things just fall apart too quickly if i try to make it happen. XD

#ascendance of a bookworm #like it's either gotta be that sigiswald believes that dietelinde is going to get the grutrissheit so he gets engaged to her #but since she can't get the grutrissheit there's no way the marriage would actually go through #plus the lanzenave invasion would happen before they could marry so that option is out #or the other option is trauerqual decides to marry sigiswald into ahrensbach instead of hildebrandt #which is more plausible because you could say it's because anastasius's engagement to eglantine cinched him the zent's seat #but then you gotta kind of handwave the existence of nahelache #or kill her off???#plus i just can't picture sigiswald NOT making a big fuss about first losing the zent seat and then being forced out of the royal family #he would not go quietly #but it is fun to imagine him getting embroiled in the lanzenave and georgine plotting #you can make it happen if you completely erase a huge part of the plot #such as the decline of ahrensbach #like maybe kill off georgine after the birth of dietelinde??#so then ahrensbach is able to rise in position above drewanchel leading to dietelinde being chosen over adolphine #to marry a prince #long story short it's very difficult to make it happen within seriously altering some aspect of the characters plot or world!

anyway shri’iia’s epilogue outfit which is a mix of 1900s male stage costumes and also that one camp outfit mod. look at the ring hehe 🤭

#it’s so whimsical I love it ….. the silhouette is based on the stage costumes #where they have like the cinched waist poofy bottoms and then stockings #but in her case it’s boots but she’s wearing these particular boots that I think fits with the whimsy elements the fit has #and the top is like a reconstructed coat but off the shoulders with the poofy sleeves bc I want to give her that rapunzel / tangled vibe #since her backstory was inspired by rapunzel ofc …!!!!#and it still has that sexy element drow fits are known to have … but this one isn’t like outright naked sexy it’s more of a teasing kind #which fits her..!! like this is her whole personality turned into an outfit I really like it 🤭🤭🤭🤭#and it’s the personality that she slowly regains when she becomes more genuine … and she’s finding herself more (via the oathbreaking route #unlike before the clothes she wore were like costumes bc she’s trying to project a certain image. now it’s her actual authentic self #character building through fashion and wear? maybe so!#as for the stage inspo I think her own style would lean that way bc a) she prob has been influenced by astarion who I think has a more #theatrical style and since she’s new to the fashion in the surface she’ll probably ask him a lot #b) it’s a whimsical style!! and fun!! very bard like tbh but I think that’s what she’ll end up liking. it’s different from the tight #fitting/see through/sleek outfits that drow fashion favours and I think she’ll want to experiment w a different style than she’s used to #and also as for the ring. it’s a promise ring hehehe I talked abt it before but I like the idea that at some point they give each other #promise rings bc marriage!!! or anything of the sort!!! feels too big and too daunting currently and they’re probably taking it slow like #they’re elves they have all the time in the world quite literally for him he’s a vampire but I like the idea they have something that #reminds them or gives them that possibility of like something more 👁️ and the promise rings are just that. also they probably stole the #rings or looted it off a dead body somewhere lmfao #anyway…… Some Thoughts. !

pov you casually mention that there's a big fuckoff tree on the other side of campus and one of ur students pipes up w ardent desperation in his voice "can we go see it" like its his long-lost pet he needs to be reunited with. why did i say it so sadly. please ma'am can we see the big tree

#mild social oopsie almost i was just so taken by the concept of big beech tree #ma'am when you give us the location of big tree i am going there and never coming back #but also. the little classroom area with the other big beech tree is calling to me. gonna disappear into the woods whenever im able #i just don't know what im gonna do w my bag.. mm probably should get a seperate cinch bag for that class' stuff anyways #and put the rest of it in my car. do that during my break so i don't have to haul all my stuff to the car after that class

Day 29: Favorite Glamour

from practical, to... less so, an adventurer's got to have a rather large wardrobe to suit all occasions.

#miqomarch 2024 #miqomarch #ffxiv miqo'te #final fantasy 14 #seeker of the sun #aka my main looks for each expac....#its been a time trying to figure out his style but ive been pretty consistently putting him in like.#flowy sleeves flowy pants cinched waist kind of stuff. and i think it works for him #im trying to keep him pretty masc bc that is like a big part of Himself #being a tia and a man is a big part of his identity #but not being able to be like. a Proper tia according to his father was a big part of him feeling like he wasn't enough for the longest tim #and why he was sooo desperate to feel needed. because his very first task #the one he was born to fulfill #he couldn't do at all #he's also usually pretty covered up because he has a little bit of a case of the never nudes... but i've been putting a lot of short sleeve #on him lately which do look nice i think #miqo'te are hard to dress they're so fucking SQUARE. he is a challenge but i love him!

my mom is visiting today + over the weekend. and. look at these bricks. 16./17. century and someone burned the bricks that a dog stepped in instead of scrapping it. look at them!!! those dogs have been dead for hundreds of years and yet we can still see their paw prints!! and a heron reflected in the water :]

#absolute potato quality bc phone cam #we also looked at a church. and there was the statue of a guy with the FATTEST ass. i mean straight up kardashian levels of ass.#AND a cinched waist + big thighs. genuinely i cannot overstate how big this guys hips were. awe-inspiring #everything else was proportioned regularly and then the juiciest dumptruck ass & thighs #moth echoes

why is it finding a suit thats not 1. black 2. oversized 3. with cigarette trousers close to impossible. where do you guys find them i am losing my mind

#i wanted baby pink one like the blazer i already have (which i dont have matching pants for bc. they didnt sell them) or baby blue or white #or even red like at this point im like fuck it anyway. i have a specific style that i like with straight shoulders cinched waist and long #wide or straight pants but seems like ill have to compromise on something if i dont find anything soon its pissing me off truly #and i already have few suits and i bought them thought the years and never had a problem finding them so i dont know whats up the stores i #bought the past ones all carry big ass oversized blazers that i drown in. HELPPPPP if u have any idea or went shopping lately please #let me know!#tt #or i would just have to go all black route which wouldnt be bad but its been done (by me) so many times i wanted some color

An Author’s Journal: RPG Safety and the GM

New Author's Journal entry at The Storytelling Blog: RPG Safety and the GM.

There’s challenging material and then there’s just plain icky. Visit the Shop for links to stories. (Images courtesy Missouri History Museum, Pixabay, and author’s collection) I feel fortunate that a safe, welcoming, and comfortable environment for tabletop roleplaying game (TTRPG) players has become common over the past decade (or two? This trend is not actually new at all, just fairly new to…

First off, I wouldn't have minded if Anne ended up being celibate in the story, but I love how Mia's willing to help her find a guy so they can both be happy with love.

But with that said, let's check up on the character interviews in Volume 11

Anne's interview:

Ludwig's interview:

Those are rather interesting answers from them both. Now let's take a look at Ludwig's individual epilogue:

I may be jumping the gun a little at this point in time but

ANNE/LUDWIG LET'S GOOOOOOO

#Tearmoon Empire #Tearmoon Teikoku Monogatari #Spoilers #Light Novel Spoilers #Anne Littstein #Ludwig Hewitt #Because of course while it would make sense that they have something in common as 2 of Mia's closest followers #Their tastes in the opposite sex are what cinch it for me with them especially #I'm only wondering is why Anne's surname stayed the same after marriage unless it's because her name's standing is already big by then #Now imagine if one of their kids ended up with one of Mia and Abel's kids in the far off future #Mia Luna Tearmoon #The biggest link they have in common #Miabel Luna Tearmoon

i have forgotten a solid 70% of everything i have ever experienced if not more but damn if i will ever forget the chorus of the computer's song in the brave little toaster to the rescue

#yelling at clouds #chomp and munch chew and crunch #there's a lot here to destroy #inch by inch it's a cinch #bringing down this big old boy #lifelong earworm

Stella Star Enjoys Another Season of Cool Scoops, Part 2

Part 1 The weather is getting cooler, but it’s never too cold for Cool Scoops. I even visited the place in February! These photos were taken on February 28th, 1968. (…Or, was that 2024?) Besides the sundaes and malted milkshakes, Cool Scoops is renowned for its abundance of decor, enough to keep any doo-wopper’s imagination occupied. Among the singers and celebrities honored on the walls, Cool…
