where fears and lies melt away.
In 10 days I'll be the head / store manager of the place I work. It's crazy cause it wasn't supposed to happen until next year.

Definitely intimidated by having to learn a lot in a short amount of time, but I'm also excited.

Man - my life has taken such a drastic turn from where I was a year ago.

For my own 'sites I want to see' confession, I no-lifed Octopath Traveler 2 and it's got me feeling certain vibes again.


I'd love a Octopath-inspired forum. That game was so good. The second one especially.

JRPGs repeat the same information too much. Like, they'll explain something in one cutscene then fifteen minutes later they'll explain it again in a different cutscene. You know, just to be sure you remember the thing that happened fifteen minutes ago.

I really really wished they stopped doing that.

He had a soldierโ€™s strength, and I felt it in the hard bands of his arms, the pressure of his fingers as his fist bunched in the silk at the small of my back and he drew me against him. There was something fierce and almost desperate in the way he held me, as if he could not have me close enough.

"In a moment." Killian replied, resting a hand on the core's domed container. He stared long and hard at the icy-blue veins that ran through its emerald surface. They were scars he couldn't heal, bars to a cage Killian couldn't break - reminders that even in success, he still failed.

ngl i kind of wish there was a good way to communicate "hey, our community is not really a good one for someone to use as ~baby's first rp site~" without coming across as mean or elitist

since bruh i'm really not trying to be mean but i'm not often equipped to do the heavy amount of hand-holding that this type of newbie requires outside of specific circumstances (like if it's a close friend who i'm just having to introduce to the site medium rather than to the process altogether) and i'm just trying to save us both a horrible experience without having everyone side-eye me for being mega elitist or think the site has bad vibes


Well, yeah when you use the phrasing 'baby's first rp site' of course you're going to come off as mean and elitist.

Maybe just say, "Hey, this site isn't the best for those starting the hobby. But there are plenty out there more accommodating to newer rpers."

Being a half-blood is dangerous. Itโ€™s scary. Most of the time, it gets you killed in painful, nasty ways. If youโ€™re a normal kid, reading this because you think itโ€™s fiction, great. Read on. I envy you for being able to believe that none of this ever happened. But if you recognize yourself in these pages โ€“ if you feel something stirring inside โ€“ stop reading immediately. You might be one of us. And once you know that, itโ€™s only a matter of time before they sense it too, and theyโ€™ll come for you.
