#The Time Keeper

[faejilly]

Hey it's Monday! Let's try that

Week-In-Review?

I am definitely doing these more as an adulting accountability post I think, but regardless!

Reading:

Finished The Hollow Places, highly recommended, deeply disturbing and yet ultimately wonderfully comforting/validating/humane. Can't quite think of the word I want? But it makes you glad to be a People on This World of Ours! (If also very glad that the specific adventures in the book are fiction and you do not have to worry about them spreading to anyone else 😅)

Am currently re-reading a series I recalled from when I was, idk, 10 or something, called The Time Keeper which holds up pretty well. I'm enjoying them... they're VERY 80s-SFF-Juvenile Fiction, though, if anyone is familiar with that niche of a sub-genre. 😄

My mother and I had a weird conversation awhile back: do you remember those books with the time travel and the stepping stones when I was a kid? and did eventually figure out the series with only that! Then she found the ebooks re-issued by the author and got them for me. 🎉

Playing:

Murder by Numbers, which is a mystery VN plus a slew of those pictogram puzzle things, and I am enjoying it a lot. Though I got a low(er) score on the third case and am not sure what I missed, so it may be a bit before I go back to finish it... It goes gloriously hard with its 90s aesthetic/setting too, so that's fun.

Adulting:

I have not been making my bed or doing anything beyond the bare minimum of laundry, but the dishes are being held in check and I've been taking my meds and no one missed an appointment or starved, so that's pretty much a win, I think?

Creating:

I did work on the Current Cross Stitch, but it's a bit of a slog atm (and I think I screwed up a color) so that didn't last long...

No writing either.

Instead I made a Crochet Kit Piggie!

She's a little crooked, but I'm pleased by my first attempt. 💕 Next I'm trying an Elephant and they'll go sit on the picture book shelf with Thing 2's old Elephant & Piggie Books, since I still remember those pretty fondly myself.

And that's about it? We got a bit of snow today, which was nice, but otherwise it's been the same old around here.

What have you been up to, my dears & darlings?

Try to imagine a life without timekeeping. You probably can't. You know the month, the year, the day of the week. There is a clock on your wall or the dashboard of your car. You have a schedule, a calendar, a time for dinner or a movie. Yet all around you, timekeeping is ignored. Birds are not late. A dog does not check its watch. Deer do not fret over passing birthdays. Man alone measures time. Man alone chimes the hour. And, because of this, man alone suffers a paralyzing fear that no other creature endures, a fear of time running out.

Happy STS, Ren!

Is there anything your characters or couples love to do when they have time to themselves?

Is there anything about the plot or world you totally adore?

Happy sts to you again, Leia ^^ I hope you're still having a lovely one.

I'm sorry that I never seem to have good answers for you :/ I don't really have a good idea of what my current romantic pairings do when they get time to themselves, because neither one has really had time to themselves since The Shackles of Time started. Character dynamics are something that usually happen while I'm writing, so this isn't something I have planned out. Even them being romantically involved just sort of happened while I was writing.

I do have a date scene planned for Zephyr and Glenn, and based on it I think maybe they like to go on little trips and try to surprise each other. Though, I imagine it's hard for them to surprise each other much these days since they've been joined at the hip for years now, fighting off monsters and traveling across the region.

I don't think Wyndulin and the Time Keeper get much time to themselves in general, I imagine their relationship is a lot of stolen moments in between serious business, like in Chapter 4.

As for things about one of my worlds that I absolutely adore - I really do love the world of The Shackles of Time, and one of my favorite elements of it is The Fel. It's Night's home city, the main city of the Shade-kin people. It's this very dark, very survival of the fittest sort of place where even speaking too loudly could invite unintended danger. I had a lot of fun building it, and that city and it's assassins guilds, secrets, silent battle with the outside world over it's resources, and monsters explains a lot about Night, I think ^^;

Thanks for stopping in again ^^ I hope you have a lovely day/evening.

i say if you’re gonna have the mysterious entities speak in rhyme you might as well commit (EDIT: part 2!)

(posting an unprecedented Part 1 of At Least 3 bc i actually have the entire script and most of the storyboarding for this done already)
