Daily OpusEverything I write is freely rebloggable. Just keep the source and tell people about my books :D [Until I decide otherwise, my pronouns are Ze/Hir/Hirself. As in "Ze went to the shops to get hir medication hirself". Thank you for the respect.]
Challenge #03000-H077: Scheherezade III
I can’t help it, I gotta know, how DO people react at the royal event seeing the twins together?
Viceroy Jubilation Araveth Falsworth Merrimine could always tell when the rest of the room spotted his brother, Apprehension. It was not quite a universal gasp, but there was a definite chorus of indrawn breaths. Usually from the gallery of those waiting to see who was whom as they arrived. Then the musicians would stutter to a halt as they saw him and all the conversations in the room would stumble to a halt.
The other Viceroy and Jubilation’s twin brother, Apprehension Marveline Merrimine, was a Tiefling. Precisely, everyone’s stock idea of a Tiefling. A cartoon Tiefling, if you will. He named himself Loyalty and, during their shared adventures, they had been through much. If the twin Viceroys had not been born holding hands, Loyalty may have had a very different fate. A shorter one, for example.
Jubilation preferred the longer fate, despite all the trouble they shared. He’d rather have a brother than not. Especially with their shared sensations. For instance, right now, he could feel the echo of Loyalty’s trepidation as they waited to be announced. Loyalty leaned over and murmured, “You’d think I forgot to shine my hooves…”
Please don’t pay the extra 30 dollars to watch Raya and the Last Dragon on top of the subscription fee you are already paying. Do not normalize this. There is no reason you should pay that much to watch a movie in your own home, a few months earlier than everyone else. If you buy into this, they will keep doing it. They are calling it an experiment for a reason.
This is my state, this affects me. Here is a link to information about how to contact Governor Hutchinson to urge him to veto the bill. Please signal boost; our biggest hope right now is drumming up a national outcry
the vaccine thing in europe feels like its turning into some cheap spy thriller now. italian police raided some medical warehouse and found that there were literally THIRTY MILLION ASTRA ZENECA VACCINE DOSES there that the company had just not reported at all and when they were asked about it they were like “oh i dont know uh, i guess half of these are for europe yes, yes they were always meant for europe, and the other half is for covax countries. don’t ask why we were sitting on this secret stockpile and didn’t ship them at all, even though covax countries are exempt from export controls. we didnt mean to send these to the usa or britain when the export controls expired, that would simply be silly”
