Hey you!
Yes, you!

If you like arcade shooters, you should try the demo for a game that my friends are working on called Polygun! I streamed a beta a few months ago, & it was super fun. :D

This was such a special song to put together and write. It perfectly puts together all the feelings that come with something as heavy as loss...

It's art

I know everyone celebrates their birthday to a different extent, and it's annoying when people over-celebrate, but from my experience the people who don't celebrate at all are the ones who already feel celebrated the rest of the year. For others, it's the one day of the year you feel seen.

I’ve wondered for months why Aviendha looks amused when Perrin says his surname is “Aybara”

Well, Manetheren’s king was Aemon al Caar al Thorin, son of Caar & grandson to Thorin
And the queen, Eldrene ay Ellan ay Carlan, daughter of Ellan & granddaughter to Carlan

Ay-bara = “Daughter of” Bara…? 😅
