Sir Gawain Fucks the Green Knight Here’s a tale ripe for telling. Can’t say where I heard it first—in pretty French or Dutch. Perhaps as a young lady walking ‘longside the Rijn. I’ll spin it for you in an English tongue, fine as frost on lace, sweet as malmsey wine. So it goes that young Gawain, strength kissed into his limbs, fresh as the bright dawn, comes trembling down to the Green Chapel. You’ve heard this tale, I know. His breath makes peach fuzz in the air, fear into him like worm to apple. Christmas Morn is too soon, time is short. You have your own life to save, he says, picking through thorn and bough to an ivy-clad cave. The creature is the Jack O’ the Glen / forest prince / the wood’s own laughter. Beard of lichen and eyes like dark elder. I need not repeat their exchange—my boy’s flinching heart—a songbird in a rattled cage. It is after the blows are dealt, he asks, what god is worshipped in these green trees? Boy, the Knight replies, boy, were you not just down on your knees? The Knight is the tang of sap / bark rough and petal soft / everywhere leaves scatter / easily crushed / Gawain clings / hardly knows what he clings to / he is the forest and the flower / a turmoil of roots / where god and tree meet and melt / the birch the oak the fern the deer / mushroom maggot crow / here Gawain is branch and bud / blow returned for blow

This is a sheer indulgence on my part, but it turns out I never actually shared the poem here, so:

Everyone needs to get on the Public Access train honestly.

Aesthetic? Flawless. Mechanics? Thematically on point. What's on that mysterious video tape? Don't worry about it.

I love that I have carved out a little slice of reality where I can spend my time making imaginary worlds with fabulous people 🥰

We love zines so much we decided to make one
It will contain the game Angel and I co-created live on stream, Wash Up! and a bunch of other super fun mini games. Get hype.

EUphoria is run by three TTRPGirls - @in-the-pan.bsky.social , @jcdarcy.bsky.social, & @michellicopter.bsky.social. Everything you see this month was planned, designed, organised, produced, scheduled, edited, and kept to the highest of safety standards by this team.

Oh an Actual Play of a game I wrote featuring a cast of some of my absolute favourite performers, I'm going to be super normal about this and not cry at all

DREW my heart 🥹 thank you for being such a wonderful friend and support

Penny is one of the most insightful people I know. If you're seeking sensitivity reading or editing you'll struggle to find better than them!

SEASON FINALE TIME!! Can’t think of a better way to end the season than to be creative with one of my favorite people!!

Ah thanks Sam! We got ridiculously close in the end I am thrilled

Oh it's in there, just after the beef section

Oh interesting, so he encountered something he didn't enjoy and wanted to communicate that so he doesn't have to see it anymore? If only there was a way for people who play games to together to easily do the same...

He is right about you destroying the hobby though, I've always said this

A mere 12 hours left on zinetopia, which means 12 hours left to back Lie To Him!

I haven't been pushing the crowdfunder too hard in this last week because frankly it has performed better than I ever dared hope, but hey here's one last push:
