my news years resolution is to consume more freak art, make more freak art, and generally be more open about the weirder less generally acceptable aspects of myself and my interests. it’ll be a journey, be prepared

need more relationships in my life that defy heteronormativity, queer relationships can be so much more than “whoah two girl dating“ or “whoah more than two people dating“, their very existence should aim to confuse your average person

I found the words to describe Sapphicworld the other day, and I put them in the book. It's some writing the game's needed for a while, and I'm very proud of it.

CHAPTER 1 - SETTING THE STAGE
THE BASICS
Where Am I?
Oh, it’s not that complicated – I am sure you can picture it. Banner-strewn castles and luscious maidens, soured loves and young animosities, old wizards watching from distant towers, anarchist screeds graffiti’d on ancient doors that only open to magic words. A broken utopia of hampered bodies, and sweet enough if you give it a chance.

You see, we fought against our masters for ages just for a single day of joy, peace and ease. We got what we wanted, and then we woke up the next day and realized that we all had different definitions of ‘joy, peace and ease’, and that we would have to fight and work for it every damned day. We came ill, we went hungry, we grew old; Still, when we were rain-soaked and haggard from the road and we saw a light on in some distant shell, we knew we would find a warm bowl and a corner to sleep in.

So, you’re home.

Who Am I?
Folk. You did not have a childhood, and you will never give birth. You walked into this story as the rest of us did, fully-formed and sick with want. There are no children in our story – some days you will cheer for that, and some days you will mourn it. We don’t deal in coin, either, just solid promises and meticulous ledgers. If someone hands you a gold coin, they are likely fucking with you.

Many will fuck with you, by the by, as you’re a special sort of Folk. You bear a Title, like The Liege's Footstool or The Tw*nk Controversial, a second name that makes your role crystal clear. Titled Folk love the road, or at least have reason to leave the flour and white-washing of home. Others will look at you and think that they understand you perfectly. I hope they don’t understand you – by God, surprise them!
Where Am I Going?
Wherever your Quest guides you, at first. It is your first task, the thing that animates you as you put boots to dust. Eventually, your Heart will get tangled up in it, your first and ugliest instinct. You will blaze across Wilds, explore the depths of Architectures, and find solace in Communes.
Why Am I Here?
Eventually, you will be presented with the true threat of your adventure, the Campaign. As I said, Sapphicworld is supposed to be this body of ease and peace, but we have to fight for it every day. Someone, or something, has stopped fighting for it, and now the mess spills out. You are the one who does something about the mess.

a playtester once said that my work would appeal to their hazbin hotel friends, and at first i was appalled by this statement.

then, i thought about it, and i realized they were right and they just handed me an unimaginably great burden.

i cannot disappoint these people a second time
