Context: I joined a side campaign, different from my usual group, but we’ve been avoiding the plot for about 8 sessions now by making things almost turn into an ERP (which for those of you unfamiliar with the term, is RP with da sexbang and stuff) but getting derailed at the last second. We’ve come up with increasingly ridiculous ways of doing so. I’m very proud of this one.
DM: You’ve successfully gotten the bartender in the bedroom with you.
Mar the Barbarian (me): I crash through the ceiling and land facedown on the bed, breaking it, then get up quickly and yell “MAR WILL SAVE FRIEND!” I pick up Borris and carry him bridal-style out of the Inn, running like there’s a fire.
In the dog world, humans are elves that routinely live to be 500+ years old.
“They live so long…but the good ones still bond with us for our entire lives.”
“These immortals are so kind we must be good friends to them”
My heart wtf

POV Fantasy slice of life book when?
“Now I am old. The fur around my muzzle is grey and my joints ache when we walk together. Yet she remains unchanged, her hair still glossy, her skin still fresh, her step still sprightly. Time doesn’t touch her and yet I love her still.”
“For generations, he has guarded over my family. Since the days of my great-great-great-great-great-grandfather he has kept us safe. For so long we thought him immortal. But now I see differently, for just as my fur grows gray and my joints grow stiff, so too do his. He did not take in my children, but gave them away to his. I will be the last that he cares for. My only hope is that I am able to last until his final moments. The death of one of his kind is so rare. The ending of a life so long is such a tragedy. He has seen so much, he knows so much. I know he takes comfort in my presence. I only wish that I will be able to give him this comfort until the end.”
SHOOK
Sometimes I find myself wondering what kind of reputation I have with people, if any, and if it’s warranted..
-lightning everywhere
-heavy rain
-big ass fire outside the camp.
When the Department of Teeny-Weeny Wonders wants a cookie they turn to Masako, an awesomely skilled baker in Osaka, Japan who creates amazing sugar cookies that look like miniature Japanese meals.
Masako’s painstaking process involves first baking a cookie in the shape of a bowl, plate, or tray.
“She then molds each food item out of icing, using a wide range of colors, textures, and even opacity to capture the diversity of each dish. From slippery soba noodles and crispy tempura to rainbow rows of sushi and cloudy miso soup, each petite plate looks good enough to eat—both as a savory dinner and a sweet treat!”
Follow Masako on Instagram to check out lots more of her deliciously tricksy cookie art.
