An indoor swimming pool with several stone tablets of iconography from an ancient culture decorate the cool blue toned walls. In the pit of the structure is centered a clay fireplace with two loveseats, and a bar to the right of the frame, with two high bar stools.

Cat tax! This is my boy Chance.
Chance, a black cat with a tuft of white fur on his chest, sits atop the Critical Role Oracle of the Moon Tarot blanket. The blanket is purple and gold, and very, very soft.

Played Foam & Fiction yesterday, a one page ttrpg by emgiosa (bio.site/emgiosia). Genuinely had a blast creating Feon, a randomized satyr with 3 levels of cleric, 1 level of monk, and 1 level of celestial warlock. I was instantly caught up in how Feon would interact in a cafe and wrote 1548 words!
Feon, my satyr OC, holding a hammer and standing next to an anvil in a pose from Hero Forge. They have bovine ears and eyes, and ram horns on the side of their head.

This is Feon, my satyr DnD OC. They are nonbinary, a blacksmith, and set in Critical Role's world, Exandria. They came through a portal from the Feywild and landed in Uthodurn, a city formed by dwarves and elves.

Just finished my first book of '25.

A Werewolf's Guide to Seducing a Vampire by Sarah Hawley is quirky, charming, & funny.

Ben, the anxious werewolf, elicited pangs of sympathy from an equally anxious reader. Eleonore's trauma was handled with grace and patience.

Good pacing, great setting 💙📚
The lavender cover of A Werewolf's Guide to Seducing a Vampire by Sarah Hawly. The title is in the center of the image. Underneath are illustrations of a man in a sweater vest and slacks, and a woman with shockingly red hair and a blue top, with knife holsters on her thighs. They are surrounded by various potted plants and a magical looking archway.

Quote with your current read! Here’s mine #booksky 💙📚

Guards! Guards! by Terry Pratchett

" 'I mean, he ate our kettle and everything,' said Colon uncertainly. 'He wouldn't just run away after eating a kettle. Stands to reason. Anyone who could eat a kettle wouldn't run away from *anything*.' "
An orangey-red book cover with a serifed font stating the author's name (Terry Pratchett). Underneath is a larger font in all caps stating the title of the book, Guards! Guards! Below the title, you can see a guard smoking a cigar/cigarette, wearing a medieval metal helmet and holding a surprised looking dragon under his right arm. In the background of the image, a city is covered in smoke and flame as a large, more traditional looking dragon soars upward, almost to the top edge of the book. At the very bottom of the cover, is the text "Discworld: A City Watch Novel" and the Penguin publishing house logo.

A stark white cover with black text for the book In the Woods. The text is left aligned, with one word per line until you reach the smaller font for the author's name, Tana French. The black font is designed to look like branches or roots are coming off of each letter, giving the eerie impression of brambles or a mysterious forest.
