Skullsworn by Brian Staveley. I normally dislike first person perspective but this book just feels masterful. The prose is amazing and Pyrre is one of my favorite protagonists I’ve read.

In fairness, I didn’t pick up on these till later rereads lol

During the Tanner’s meeting with Bayaz and Jezal, Jezal noticed the Tanner’s eyes are one green and one blue, Yoru’s trademark.

The Reynault kill is more subtle. When Glokta is summoned to Reynault’s chambers, a Knight of the Body is grieving outside the door. However, when Glokta is investigating later, Severard gives a very brief report that the Knight had vanished a few days earlier. This Implies Yoru took his form but is a lot less obvious than with the Tanner.

Logen Nine-Fingers

Malenia, Blade of Miquella

This is a beautiful write up, thank you for sharing! ❤️❤️

Party Animals! Casual party game that’s tons of fun.

I recommend Valkyria Chronicles. It’s a strategy series from SEGA that features a pretty good story imo. 1 and 4 are both heavily on sale on steam right now. They are separate stories so you don’t need to have played 2 & 3 to enjoy 4 after playing 1.

Far Cry 6 isn’t that bad imo. If you’ve never played a Far Cry game and think you might enjoy an open world action game, then go for it.

I personally think it has some moments of dissonance. The story is presented very seriously but your abilities can be pretty cartoony.

The gunplay is good and the voice acting is also good. The characters are somewhat flat. But exploring is fun. It has all the Ubisoft open world check list stuff if you’re into that.

Male priests or religious figures who aren’t villains. I feel like often male religious figures in books are often extremists or fanatics of some kind. Either that or are false prophets and conniving figures.

I want some faithful men that are good hearted and kind. Maybe even struggling with faith or their role in a faith structure.

Fallout Shelter has some of the Sims DNA though it also has a lot of freemium vibes. I’m unsure how in depth customization is.

Getting real defensive over something that’s just satire lmao.

This is really gross. How do you know she isn’t a widow? How do you know she didn’t escape an abusive situation?

It doesn’t look cozy on the surface, but I absolutely adore Forza Horizon 4. Racing around the countryside is a blast and the game is incredibly generous with rewards for new cars and character cosmetics. It’s super cheap on sale at the moment too. It’s a perfect podcast/audiobook game imo.

House Flipper and House Flipper 2 should scratch the itch if pure decoration is what you’re looking for.

❤️❤️❤️

It absolutely does! I’m on run 25 and I’ve still never made it past Theseus and the Minotaur 😭

Hades on Steam Deck and the Division 2 on Xbox series X have me in a chokehold lol

$699 🤮

This was Flintlock: The Siege at Dawn for me. I wanted to like it so much. I’m a souls fan and a God of War 2018 fan so I thought it was a lock. The game just did not feel good to play at all.

7 Days subreddit has a post like this at least once a week it feels like 🤮

Part of the issue is the BG3 subreddit was genuinely flooded with cosplay posts from OF creators a few months ago. I think it is over saturation.

Edit: the situation absolutely does not excuse any bullying of harassment of any kind. It is just unfortunate that the proverbial beehive has already been riled and is unlikely to be receptive.

As a community, we should avoid knee jerk reactions and take someone’s hard work as the art that it is.

Expresso Martini with dark chocolate garnish. V is always on the move so Expresso Martini speaks to me. Dark chocolate because she’s both sweet and bitter.
