I'm back with a third Raven & Bear story. I'd appreciate it if people listened to, liked and comment on the new video Caer y Môn.

"It’s weird that what I’m feeling now is so much worse than when I stood at Mom’s grave, but it is. Maybe because all that’s in the graveyard is a body she left behind two years ago, and inside these rooms part of her is still alive. I need to see that part, and I’m not sure I want to." - The Erstwhile Tyler Kyle
"The shape of something white and flat glints before me. Teeth. The ground rolls. I’m standing on a tongue. The lips part slowly, letting in a ghostly light that feels like a sheet against my skin. It’s the light of the monsters in the forest, hypnotic, almost audible in its brightness. I stare until the image sharpens, until the breeze tickles my skin and I’m not inside the mouth anymore, but on a road watching Nor walk into the forest." - The Erstwhile Tyler Kyle
"The glow of the bears’ eyes is so beautiful, so peaceful. And how bad would it be, really, to be devoured? To know your small death would feed an army of forest critters? What other meaning could I hope to find out there in the big scary world, being alive? Living is hard. It takes so much effort. To die, all I have to do is stand here and wait. And beautiful. Dear God will it be beautiful. Jaws clamped around my neck, the beatbeatbeat of my heart, the beatbeatbeat, the beatbeatbeat of my heart, the beat beat beat of my heart, the beat beat . . . .beat . . . hey The jaws closing, the puncture of thin skin, the pulse of blood down the neck, claws raised to swipe open my chest, my ribcage, my heart Swipe right for supper And I’ll melt over time into the earth and the pine needles, diffused into root and moss, and the trees will sing songs of me, and the words they make will sound like heyheyhey." - The Erstwhile Tyler Kyle
"It never stops being weird, someone being there and then suddenly not, like you could step into yesterday and find them walking to the corner store, or if you tilt your head at exactly the right angle you’ll see them in your living room watching The Day the Earth Stood Still. They pat the seat beside them, like they caught your reflection in the screen, but it was just a shadow, and you snap out of each other’s worlds the way we forget even our most vivid dreams in the haze of morning. It feels like they’ve existed longer than they haven’t, though the reverse is true. Sometimes, it happens even with people who are still alive, and the pull inside you when you glimpse a stranger who looks like them, almost, until they turn around or speak or crook their elbow all wrong is like a hand clasped and then severed at the wrist." - The Erstwhile Tyler Kyle
Thanks so much for this!

"Romance options in games are just wish fulfillment" okay? But why is wish fulfillment suddenly a dirty word? Being able to shoot fireballs or stab bad guys with a sword without going to jail or save scum and try my fuckups again are also wish fulfillment but that's only a problem when it's romance?

Maia is saying: H.R. 7661 is a national book banning bill which seeks to remove any book that "involves gender dysphoria or transgenderism" from all public schools in the US. This would ban my books, and any other book with trans themes, from public schools. PLEASE call your House Reps and say: NO ON H.R. 7661!
