one

I had a dream where I learned I was a shapeshifter who can turn into a common loon?! ok not the most convenient kind of bird to take the shape of, given that they can't walk on land and they need an entire lake's worth of runway to take off into flight. but still! extremely cool, and I would like to go back to the dream where I was in the process of learning the lore of loon shapeshifters, please


two

I enjoy the positive feedback loop of:

1. I enjoy ling wen as a character!

2. people talk to me about ling wen because they know I like her, so I need to gain knowledge and understanding of her to talk about her better!

3. now I enjoy ling wen even more as a character!

4. people come to associate me with how much I love ling wen, so I need to do deeper dives into REALLY understanding her, so I can do justice to her!

5. now I enjoy ling wen even more as a character!

etc

(talk to me about ling wen any time! :D)

tfw you like all your recent fic so much that you want to put all of it into the "author's favourites" series you created on ao3. but. that would kind of defeat the purpose of having a series that collects just my faves!

I'm in my SELF-HYPE ERA. where I feel good about the things I make and do!

yes I am extraordinarily behind in commenting on posts, replying to comments, etc. I have just been too busy of late! I hold onto desperate hope that maybe this weekend I'll have the time to catch up a bit.

Just the other day I saw a loon doing the water-slapping dance down the lake trying to take off, and when it finally got (barely) airborne it only flew about ten feet and then dropped back down into the water like "you know what, never mind." My new headcanon is it was a frustrated shapeshifter.

This is a very rad era to be in!!

Did you know that an old name for a loon is "arse-foot"? Because their legs are attached so far back. : D

[sophia_sol]

aslkdhfskjdfks I did NOT know that, but I am so glad to know it now, that's so funny and delightful!
