Fic preview for Veritas et Fortuna: A Ratiorine Zine. Title: reach across the styx. Writer: euphemea.

Summary:

“The walk out of hell is not easy, but there is more than one means to arrive at the end. I’m sure Aventurine’s esteemed professor friend already knows this.” Acheron exhales and turns on her heel. “That’s all. Good luck.”

Veritas watches silently as she leaves. Her meaning is clear, and eerily pointed regarding his own inner turmoil.

It would be far better for Aventurine to find his own way back to the living.

But Veritas is only a man. Never is that clearer than each time he comes face to face with Aventurine dangling himself over the brink. If his damned gambler cannot pull himself free from the abyss, then it falls to Veritas to make the journey there and back again for him.

i'll probably end up getting a second cat sometime next year. it's already *very* apparent that daphne eats her food sooner/faster (out of boredom?) on the days i'm not at home, and if i'm the only other living being she regularly interacts with, she's liable to end up with separation anxiety.

everyone please say hi to Daphne, who has meowing her discontent at my inability to give her the exact right affection and playtime for three weeks now

it's kinda wild that fe3h had its 6th anni over the weekend. it's the game that got me back into fandom spaces because it infected my brain so bad after ~2 years of avoiding fandom spaces prior.

"to democratize art is not every person having a cute drawing made in seconds, to democratize art is every person having time and health to learn and make art if they chose to, and mainly to have the means to think and relate introspectively with art."

Bertoni @thebertoni.bsky.social · Mar 30

Pq democratizar a arte não é toda pessoa ter um desenho bonitinho feito em segundos, democratizar arte é toda pessoa ter tempo e saúde pra aprender e produzir arte se quiser mas principalmente ter condição pra pensar e se relacionar com arte com introspecção.

[RT =💙] Hello #fe3h, #sylvgrid, #dorogrid, and #annegrid likers!

I'm auctioning off one (1) fic for Fandom Trumps Hate. For a donation to charity, you could get a personalized fanfic from me, who loves nothing more than to put Ingrid Galatea through the meat grinder. Here's how!⬇️

A mint green background with yellow highlights. On it, it says: Save a Horse, Ride a Horse Girl, with an image of Ingrid Fire Emblem looking annoyed, with Sylvain, Dorothea and Annette in hearts around her.

Underneath that, it says: Lan is writing Ingrid ships for Fandom Trumps Hate, and in a callout box it says "Bid Now", with (will write other ships if you ask.)

To everyone in a similar scenario: the tactic my doctor's office has taught me is to ask, in writing, for:
1) the name, board specialty, and license number of the doctor making the determination the treatment was not medically necessary;

I had the honor and joy of writing a #ratiorine fic for @ratiorinezine.bsky.social based on a certain Greek myth! Please check out the zine, preorders close December 1st!

Fic preview for Veritas et Fortuna: A Ratiorine Zine. Title: reach across the styx. Writer: euphemea.

“Sensations, emotions—these are things that remain, even once memory fades. Even should the worst occur, and the people keeping them vanish. There are many who do not recognize what could be lost at the edges of a black hole until it has already vanished.
“IX’s shadow is long, and there are those I cannot carry back across the river. I can only lead them away from their desires unto their final rest. To reach the land of the living, it is those who are alive that must lend a hand.
“The walk out of hell is not easy, but there is more than one means to arrive at the end. I’m sure Aventurine’s esteemed professor friend already knows this.” Acheron exhales and turns on her heel. “That’s all. Good luck.”
Veritas watches silently as she leaves. Her meaning is clear, and eerily pointed regarding his own inner turmoil.
It would be far better for Aventurine to find his own way back to the living.
But Veritas is only a man. Never is that clearer than each time he comes face to face with Aventurine dangling himself over the brink. If his damned gambler cannot pull himself free from the abyss, then it falls to Veritas to make the journey there and back again for him.
