shadarasA few things, briefly:
1.
I saw Sinners yesterday. Fantastic movie. I adore the music. I love the visual imagery. It used metaphor beautifully.
I feel like I should be able to articulate more about it but, well, it is very good and a dense text and it is late for me right now. xD Very glad I've now seen it! Will keep thinking about it!

battleshipex is, as ever, an experience. xD my team hit the victory condition this afternoon after blazing through the boards and bosses in a frankly terrifying way. I do not think we expected to go this fast. I do not think anyone expected a team to go this fast! The mods kept going UH SLOW DOWN WE AREN'T READY.
(ngl I think it's more fun when the teams are closer to each other. but then, I also missed seeing mod announcements of things like "X revealed Y shape!" and the like, so, y'know, different people have different things that are fun, and I had a very good time with the people on my team. would have regardless of how fast we went.)
but hey I'm looking forward to watching the other teams duke it out for second place and for when the massive collection of works we've all made is revealed. <3
3.
hafnia has begun posting the novel that ate us to ao3, and I am delighted that other people can start reading the thing that we've been discussing incessantly for two months. xD This has been our mutual hyperfocus! It is the product of us gleefully following our shared ids and going "what if—" and also tormenting our blorbos. <3
This story includes: high fantasy regency-inspired romance, trans themes, weird/kinky sex, lots of thought about consent and agency, bad communication becoming better, and a slow burn towards a happy ending that's at the end of what has become a trilogy.
