I finished #WindandTruth

I’m not ok, and will need the next 6 years to recover while waiting for book 6 🪐📚

Day 6 was brutal. I can’t imagine what Sanderson still has in store for us #WindandTruth #cosmere 🪐📚

This single scene is so full of love and happiness. Our favorite bridge boy Kaladin deserves a happy ending, but the thought that it could be something like this sparks so much joy

If something horrible happens, please let me be blissfully unaware #WindandTruth

When you spent billions and destroyed your brand to recreate 1930's Germany and got 1780's France instead.

On a completely unrelated note, who’s ready for the next Stormlight Archive entry tomorrow? #cosmere 🪐📚

Trying to work my way through a reading slump without DNFing books that I genuinely enjoy. This time I’m tackling The Light of All That Falls 50 pages at a time until I finish. And being kind to myself on days I don’t get that far

Looking forward to James Islington’s other series in the future!

We’ve survived the week and made it to game day!

Excited to continue taking my players out of Brevoy and into the wilds of Pathfinder Kingmaker

Most days Toast wakes up and chooses violence

Apparently today is not one of those days ❤️

Tried to get a cute picture of Regie snuggling, but today he’s photographing like a middle-aged man’s dating profile

Huh.

Was early Twitter this inviting? I thought it would be more intimidating, starting over on a new platform.

So far, you’re all delightful

Obligatory introduction post. I’m Em (she/her), a 27-year-old scientist working in veterinary parasitology.

I’m a huge sci-fi/fantasy nerd rediscovering my love for reading, perma-DM, and aspiring writer that mainly feeds into my D&D sessions because I can’t handle rejection.

Never been on Twitter, so I have no idea what I’m doing. No one in my personal life is on Bluesky, so trying to meet new people #promosky
