Visiting a ruined world in search of ancient texts, Rey stumbles across messages from its dead.

As much as it makes her sad, she reminds herself—and Ben—that they yet have hope.

Rey sees the messages everywhere, scrawled across walls, on scraps of paper (yellowing, aged, held from the wind by the weight of broken coffee cups), plastered to doors.

‘Infected inside’
‘Untreated—avoid’
‘Contaminated’
‘2 left, 17 days from exposure’

Some notes are worse than others.

‘Eagles’ they called them, American volunteers who’d braved the wide vast deadly Atlantic, souls who flew and fought and died alongside men Rey had known as boys.

She knows better but as the tall Yank with a soft smile and wings on his chest offers to buy her a pint, she wavers.

Says ‘yes’.

Slim as a wand, graceful as the wind, she moves across the stage on pointed shoes, so attuned to the music it seems a very part of her.

The audience sits transfixed, in awe.

Tucked into the rafters above, a man with a scarred face and troubled heart watches.

Smiles.

He can’t but miss her.

A memory rose unbidden, sharp and too bright. He closed his eyes, as if he could push the thought away. But it didn’t help. There in his mind it was so clear, almost like he was in the moment again.

Anybody who is like “Piracy is activism!”—trust me, supporting your local library is about 1000% more effective activism, and it’s still free for you and authors still get paid!

AND supporting your local library is super important! If you actually DO want books to be available to everyone, the library *already exists* and is staffed by the people who are deep in the trenches of fighting censorship! Supporting the library is doing actual good for your community!
TAPS SCREEN

For like the zillionth time: Libraries are FREE for you, but WE still get compensated for our work!!
Just saw someone claim that authors who want to be paid for their work are "class traitors" because we "only let the wealthy" read our books, and I think I need to go into the woods to scream into the night for a bit.

It's $5, not your first-born child! I need that $5 for health insurance!

Interesting 🧵
I’ve been thinking about how some people are very mad about f/m omegaverse (which I get as a queer person) but I also think the attraction of it is reading a female character who is incredibly unrepentantly horny (heat/rut) and can’t help it! It’s just biology! There’s no moral judgement attached!

Awwww, sexy and protective of his pretty little wolf!
#Reylo
She's tiny, this little lost one, unbalanced on her feet and unsure, and the lack of pack shows, her soft chestnut fur ungroomed and unkempt.

When she throws her head back to howl, though, he sees the power she'll grow into and he's entranced.

Unbalanced, she falls; he's there to catch her.

You’ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who’s coming to save you?

BIG sigh of relief.

Hux had several delicate matters to attend to: feeding his rare fish, checking his crypto wallet, deep cleaning the fridge…and once again, the noise from Kylo’s room was intolerable. First, there was shouting. Then strange thumps. And now? Throaty moans and breathless panting. Worst roommate ever.
