Jonathan is honestly in such a bad position at the end of Lady Knight though. Kel committed treason and a whole bunch of people followed her. This is the kind of person you do not want to leave alive in case the next time they commit treason and gather a small army that army is pointed at you. Except she got tacit approval from the King’s Own to do this. Your own god-touched champion likes…
Man though, in a continuity where Kel kills Jonathan, her friendly duel with Alanna in the Trickster duology becomes foreshadowing, huh? The angst… the betrayal… I wonder if that factored into the Beka vs Tunstall showdown at all
kuttithevangu : Remember when TPierce said she had to stop writing tortall sequels because Kel was going to kill Jonathan. Thinking about that for no reason
darlingofdots : poorshadowspaintedqueens : darlingofdots : ten years ago as part of my creative writing degree we had a class on professional development where we learned how the publishing process works for different mediums and how to choose an agent and what the role of a publishing house is and back then, the advice was “self-publishing has its advantages but a traditional publisher will…
st-just : st-just : It’s probably inevitable (even necessary) that the people who devote their lives to becoming as good as possible at some particular art or trade or w/e also develop a horrible outsized and self-congratulatory conception of how important and vital and fundamentally human it is. Doesn’t make listening to them wax poetic about it in an interview any less insufferable…

As I suffer through endless romantasies where the main characters meet once and become intensely obsessed with and attracted to each other I continue to wonder whether this is universally lazy writing or if people actually live like this
kragehund-est : problematic rage gap. one partner tries to bring nuance and understanding to a tough situation. the other wants to blow up the earth about it.
homoqueerjewhobbit : chinchillasinunison : indeed.com : hello person with a graphic design degree we think you’ll be great match for ( checks notes) dying in a coal mine That’s basically the plot of Ducks by Kate Beaton:
In Station 11 the graphic novel, Lonergan is the isolated has-been obsessed with the past and K is the young rebel Undersea leader, while Doctor Eleven is the outsider who talks to both of them and nobody trusts. In Kirsten’s play, she plays K, ‘kills’ Frank-as-Lonergan, and feels responsible for Frank’s actual death. In the present, Clark fits Lonergan’s profile and…

Re: my chill attitude toward surgery, I do appear to tolerate anesthesia extremely well. I don’t get postoperative nausea, and I only recently learned that some people get long lasting cognitive damage from general anesthesia, whereas I bounce back from it quickly beyond a tendency to be a bit chatty for a while.
