@sysadmin1138@octodon.social 😨

@Forestofglory i am taking a sick day as well for similar reasons 🫂

@celli@octodon.social thats good!

@celli@octodon.social ah yeah those kinds of visits are difficult, but important. I hope her recovery is going smoothly 💜

@celli@octodon.social i hope you enjoy it! (and also wherever you’re traveling to? is it a vacation or?)

@celli@octodon.social ahh i feel that! i have also struggled with reading lately, esp full length novels

If it helps I ended up tearing through it at a speed I’d forgotten I could manage—it doesn’t require a ton of close concentration to just wallow in the delightful iddyness of it all and, while there’s some politicking its largely either handwaved or laid out pretty straightforwardly—none of the chinese court drama “okay please remember these twenty peoples names, titles, courtesy names, motivations and relationships to eachother” lmao

@celli@octodon.social read hands of the emperor first and then you can poke around at the rest if you’re sufficiently hooked—that fic also assumes you’ve read at the feet of the sun & some of the novellas but just the first one will get you a good enough idea of the canon for you to manage

@celli@octodon.social if you want an extremely iddy fantasy about the magic of bureaucracy, cultural traditions, court politics, and nebulously queer fealty based relationships than boy do i have a novel for you

@celli@octodon.social my response as well! its a p niche fandom tho: https://archiveofourown.org/works/48593812
