I love that @amekay3 brings me sea treasures for my spells
you know it took me approximately a week to edit 1/3 of Daugment and it’s taken me 2 months to assemble a 2000-word timeline in order to edit the next chapter. FUCK EDITING

accomplishment of the week: getting my MIL and all of her friends to watch “Fixer Upper” with a whole new set of eyes
