Every time my fiancée tells me something about the Locked Tomb series, I just reply with “oh, that sounds like this thing in Fate” and much to their irritation I’ve yet to hear something that I can’t respond to this way. 🤣

Man, I can’t wait to put together a Dom cosplay for PAX Unplugged. His character description fits me to a T, and also this shirt, vest, gloves, hat, and prop prosthetic hand I happen to coincidentally own for unrelated reasons-

LONGSILOG MENTION, LET'S GO PINOY GANG-
The Bar At The End Of The World offers a familiar meal, of which The Hermit partakes daily. Longsilog — a breakfast of longganisa, garlic fried rice, and a savory fried egg — with miso soup on the side.
The Hermit draws from the decks of Hearts and Clubs. Are you ready to meet him? ♣️

So little update, #ttrpg.
I've spent some time in the doldrums. The air down here is toxic. Makes you see things you'd rather not. Thing is? I'd rather not, so I'm gonna climb out and get some fresher air so to speak.
That said. I need help.
