She would miss Lord Darren most of all, but Agatha advocated for her happiness, and she should never again find so ardent a supporter. She almost wished Agatha was going to visit Mr Hawksley instead; she might wring him out and fold him into her chest. There would be no finding him again. #booksky

“You mean the madhouse? The one with the eyes etched into the walls? You mean to tell me the place is actually habitable? And there I thought the people working on it were mindless slaves to some shadow lord.”
Darren would not have smiled for the world. “Pleased to make your acquaintance.”

I read out a section of Shadowbeast for my local writing group yesterday. At the end of the session, someone came up to me and said, in a loving voice, "Go back to your stupid stuff."
So here is some stupid orc stuff for the holiday weekend:

They saw nightjars out on their crepuscular jaunts, a few deer wandered toward the brush, and fireflies floated about. The woods themselves felt alive. The limbs of old trees groaned, owls crooned, and even the cracks of old stumps were a haven for moths, some with wings as large as a hand. #booksky

She examined it against the window, its radial petals slightly curling, the outline of a citrine bell crowning the frame. Admiring it brought Darren to mind, his sudden disappearance making her heart appreciate fondness.

“He hasn’t been a serviceable man in many years.”
Agatha tutted and waved a hand at him. “Pesh! Men can alwaes be taught.”
“Your hope for the master and men in general is admirable. Decidedly few of us ever become house-trained.”
“Ye were domesticated.”
“Someone had to set the example.”

'There is nothing so disagreeable as being forced to sit in the same room as someone who has wronged me.'

I couldn't agree more. I hardly ever manage.🤬😤

I'm more and more convinced @michellefranklin.bsky.social and I are separated twins. Only, our ideal temp is vastly different.

Managed to make up my mind. 🥳

Now reading:

M. Franklin @michellefranklin.bsky.social: I Hate Summer (Introverts #1)

She got me via: 'There is no greater remedy for despondence than the bitter cries of old enemies.'

Plus, I love her stuff. 🥰
