Oración para invocar a Xantico y Huehuetéotl.

Señora de la luz, de la llama protectora, invoco tu presencia para que brindes calor.

Señor dador de vida, corazón de la Tierra, invoco tu presencia para que brindes fuerza.

Abuelos del fuego, solicito su presencia en este preciso momento.

Y que las aves del fuego vengan a danzar en esta alquimia de amor y de calor.

Al momento de cocinar utiliza esta oración, para que los señores del fuego bendigan tu preparación.

I just finished reading For the Record and oh my god, I am not able to shape words in a way that can genuinely represent how it made me feel, so I'm just gonna yell at you: YOUR VIKTOR! YOUR POTRAYAL OF DEPRESSION! (spot on, especially: "Everything was a fight I didn’t want to get out of bed, but I did I didn’t want to leave the shower, but I did") JJ!, THIS QUOTE: "This, for future reference, is about the moment that journalistic integrity went out the window." Just everything was amazing! 💖💃

Thank you very much! For the Record (found on AO3 here if anyone wants to read and hasn’t already) was actually written in a very short period of time, when you consider how long it is versus how fast I usually write, but I think it needed some of that.

Viktor as someone who suffers from depression (and maybe does not realise it) is very important to me. Viktor as someone who makes a concentrated effort to get better, even though it’s hard, even though he can be functional and miserable, is also important to me. Writing his story was pretty cathartic for me.

JJ -- would you believe that my thought process for having Yuuri and JJ be rinkmates was essentially, “Why not?” followed by, “No, but wait, this could work.”

Re: journalistic integrity, I like to think Viktor’s conversation with his editor went something like this:

Editor: Viktor, you sLEPT WITH THE SUBJECT?Viktor: I know right? How did I pull that off?

Thank you very much for reading!

Rules: tell me one book from your childhood that you still love now, one book that is on your reading list, and the book that you’ve read most recently.

tagged by @spohkh!!!

Childhood: the tortall series by tamora pierce owned my soul as a child especially bc one of my teachers sent me the whole series over break and i read it in one go and that was the first real.... actual set of books i had ever gotten into? it was extremely formative. my favorite of them all was emperor mage bc it introduced me to the whole ‘character a dies and character b unleashes all their power to seek revenge on whoever hurt character a’ trope. loved that as an 11 yo.

On my TBR: i have... SO many. i borrowed the deep by rivers solomon so i need to read that first probably. but i also really wanna read born a crime by trevor noah and the house in the cerulean sea too.... basically i walk into work and find five more books to read on a daily basis, so.

Just finished: the last book i read was the library of the unwritten and i ADORED it!!! i am such a sucker for most of the tropes in that book and i LOVE an angel character and just. a library in hell??? what more could you ask for?! and the next book in the series comes out the week of my bday! yay!
