“the hands that cradled your face and tilted it upwards to kiss your forehead are soaked in unfathomable quantities of blood.”
“but they cradled me, yes?”
Big fan of sun motifs in characters not necessarily being about positivity and happiness and how they’re so “ bright and warm” but instead being about fucking brutal they are.
Radiant. A FORCE of nature that will turn you to ash. That warmth that burns so hot it feels like ice. Piercing yellow and red and white. A character being a Sun because you cannot challenge a Sun without burning alive or taking everything down with them if victorious.
weirdest tabletop experience i ever had
- be me in 2022
- download a bundle of tabletop games at 3 am
- find a giant pdf labeled “act one”
- it’s a game played by only exactly three people on different levels of reality.
- you also play alternate universe versions of your characters on different levels in reality
- secrets in the book are written in mirror writing
- the whole book is an in-universe preserved text by someone in a different universe
- i am so into this game.
- best thing i’ve ever read.
- i tell all my friends about it the next day.
- “sounds cool, what’s it called?”
- i can find no evidence of this game.
- i can find no evidence that this game ever existed.
- i’m not even sure what bundle it was in.
- all my friends develop the theory that this game is a dream i had.
- they tease me about The Time Bird Dreamed An Entire TTRPG That Could Only Be Read In A Mirror
- i find the game three years later
- it’s about dreams
anyway if you wished Invisible Sun was weirder you may enjoy Disparateum by Rathayibacter

My favorite part about my friends reading Temeraire is them eventually texting me and going “Goddamn it sure is nice to have a fully realized adult as a protagonist who does have angst but it’s not like teenager or young adult angst he’s just suffering adult problems while also knowing in general who he is and that’s so refreshing” and it happens every single time.
this is my new fave shinee story…. they talk a lot about how 2nd gen kpop was a lot of local outdoor festivals in rural areas for the farmers and the elderly but this is the funniest one.
key: back then people didn’t have navigation on their phones so you had to buy it and install it in your car separately.
park myungsoo: i like it, very relatable
key: and we kept going deeper and deeper into the mountains in the pouring rain and had no idea where we were going, and suddenly two elk were running across the road
park myungsoo: that’s very dangerous
key: and we finally got there and the audience was just 50 monks wearing rain ponchos sitting outside
park myungsoo: so it was a temple? you performed ring ding dong at a temple??
key: it was a temple, and we did, and we couldn’t figure it out. what is this event, and why do they need shinee to be there?? why were we there??
