#more eyerolls?

I still don't get why people think Azriel and Bryce would make sense cuz they don't. How would that work?

One of them would have to leave everything behind and I don't think Bryce nor Azriel would leave their homes just to be together. Neither of them would like to change and lern everything about the new world just to be with one person. Honestly, we'd need more books for that storyline.

I don't know Sjm, but this is something Sjm would most likely not do. It would be so weird to imagine Azriel doing tik tok dances and Bryce not being able to use toilet paper 😂😂😂😂

I was talking with the group chat about this the other day, and I am meh on Az and really dislike Bryce, so take this with a grain of salt, but they would be the WORST couple lmao

It's not even the logistics stuff you mentioned, but their personalities would clash so badly?? Bryce is a fun-loving, brash party girl and Az is intense, standoffish and serious. Bryce wouldn't have the patience for him and vice versa. I could see them hooking up and then being annoyed with one another the next morning and never calling each other. I just don't think they'd have the patience or fucks enough to even get to know each other. I just don't get it 💀

By the way...

it was sort of last week, or maybe during the week before—I forget— when @petermorwood came downstairs to get tea while he was working on some long post or another full of guns and swords and assorted deadly weaponry—or cats, or food, or historical clothing, you know what he's like... and all of a sudden he said:

"So what about Cyber Monday?"

And I wasn't sure where that was coming from, as Peter normally doesn't spend a lot of his time being concerned about cyber stuff in general.

"Uh, why?" said I.

"Well, it's the Young Wizards anniversary month. Shouldn't you be doing some kind of sale offer over on Twitter, the way you did on Tumblr?"

My mouth kind of opened and shut again. Mostly at the moment when I think of Twitter, it's in terms of imagery involving things circling the drain at ever-increasing speed. And as far as Cyber Monday went, I hadn't really thought about it. This year I noticed that I've started kind of lumping it in with Black Friday, which mostly increasingly makes me mutter and shake my head as I see what my email box gets to look like this time of year. And since I'd been mostly preoccupied with writing issues and website crap lately, you could kind of multiply that not-caring by two. Or five. Or some power of ten.

...Yet he had a point. And what the hell, at least putting a video up there would remind people that the series existed! (Because people do seem to keep forgetting, and then suddenly bursting out with OH WAIT ARE THESE THOSE BOOKS I LOVED WHEN I WAS A KID, WAIT, YOU MEAN SHE WROTE THOSE, I THOUGHT ALL SHE DID WAS STAR TREK?!) (Eyeroll.)

"But I told them on Tumblr," I said, "that I wasn't going to do any more of these sales for the foreseeable future."

"Looks like you forgot to foresee this," said Himself, dumping half a cow's worth of milk in his tea as usual. "Look, if you do it just one more time, I bet they'll forgive you as long as you tell them about it so they can take advantage of it if they want to." Then he snickered. "And anyway, you told them you weren't going to do any Sherlock/Young Wizards fusions either, and look how that turned out." More snickering. "They forgave you for that. Eventually."

"Oh god."

"Just tell them. They'll let you off the hook." Up the stairs he went, still snickering. "Sometime in mid-2024 probably."

(eyeroll)

Dammitall, I hate it when he has a point.

So look. Here's the discount page. There's the video, two paragraphs down. You all know the drill. The "All the Wizardry" package is $29.99 today. The "I Want Everything You've Got" package is $40 just for today. Anybody who hasn't taken advantage of one of these offers previously, or didn't have the cash earlier, or wants to point somebody else at it...go knock yourself or -selves out with my abslute blessing. (Because who knows whether anybody on Twitter will notice at all, the way the algorithm's been behaving.)

And: everybody please forgive me. (abases herself before the assembled multitudes in the approved manner)

(...Anyway, WTH, it's worth a try. I want to get this friend of mine a new fountain pen for Christmas, and every little bit helps...) :)

(And a final reminder: we can't sell to people in Britain / the UK, it's a Brexit problem ... so sorry about that.)

Very funny that thread that got popular on bsd twt of someone saying mori only abused yosano and its awesome that everyone is defending chuuya but it's very annoying to even read that because the person he is onscreen seen abusing the most is dazai. And it was longer to??? And the person is just like "it wasn't written that way" yes it was?? Did you watch the show with your eyes closed.

bringing fandom culture back to its roots 🙏

The ACOTAR fandom if we all read Tamsand m-preg fics

I swear, this fanbase is not normal because more mlm ships like Tamsand, Tamcien, Azris etc would have been popular in literally every other fanbase

Again saw someone claim, "All art is political :)" when referring to writing and once again it made me so angry I almost burst a blood vessel.

Skill issue.

Random thought that S1 could have instead had more consistent hinting/detail to it that Tommy *suspected* Grace in some way, and therefore his seduction of her wasn't entirely just the hearteyes it tried to be sold as, but rather attempting to sway her to his side. Because, given every other series has Tommy using his body/self/sex as a way to leverage influence he wouldn't otherwise have, it'd be consistent to have seen a hint of that with Grace.

And then to *still* have their revelation moment after the Garrison killings, because then how much more meaningful if he throws away his suspicions in favour of finding someone he feels sees him and gets him.
