pretty satisfyingly dramatic way to go if she does... but little awkward to have to come up with a new character already hehe

welllll my new character in the blue rose campaign might not survive thru a single adventure (the previous one didn't die, they just retired to a life of running municipal infrastructure and helping people, but this one might die)

extremely ghost town (pokémon fanfic) spoilers

i like to think that Cowgirl Shelley is addressing me as "honey" because she is a lesbian who is hitting on me.

ghost town quote related to transness 

«She's nervous; Tacoma can feel it in whatever it is that passes for her bones. Because Ella might have overheard them? Or because she hasn't shaved yet? It's only been a few days, but Tacoma is beginning to get an idea of the lengths Jodi goes to to avoid people seeing her on anything but her own terms.» real

I did it! I probably did not need to grind that long, but it went very smoothly having done so.

poképosting 

currently grinding and trying to decide if i wanna adjust my team any or teach them some new TMs for this. it occurred to me that i won't need my HM mons for the pokemon league, so i'm considering swapping in somebody else for Linoone or Tentacruel (Pelipper got replaced previously by Rayquaza natively knowing Fly + Tentacruel because Pelipper couldn't learn Dive).

my champions character is no longer a secret alien invader.

apparently the dang earth governments already knew about them being an alien.

I have defeated all the gyms in Emerald and captured Rayquaza (just used master ball for this).

... I guess next (after a while break) a bunch of grinding and then I will face the Elite Four.

context re: detective fiction recommendation request 

a game i am gonna run suggests adapting the backstory of this sort of detective fiction as the basis of scenarios for it. i read a sara paretsky book that i really liked but i figure i’ll read some more stuff so i have a few ideas to pick from

detective fiction recommendation request 

i hereby solicit recommendations of detective fiction. if you have any of that (authors or particular works) you like, i’d appreciate hearing them!

i am currently more looking for the sort of work where the question is more whether the protagonist will achieve any sort of good outcome rather than for the reader to compete with the detective at solving the mystery. like, not poirot/holmes style stuff. that said if you have stuff you really like of the latter sort i’d also be curious but would appreciate if you indicated that it was that kind of thing :)

can somebody explain to me how to distinguish between the different (sub?)genres of fiction that often have private investigators as protagonists

poképosting 

flannery sure complicates fighting her

this complaint does unfortunately also generalize to questions of perhaps more weight than what distinguishes fanfiction from more conventionally respected "literature"

Show thread

for example, analyzing the material base underlying the production and reception of "fanfiction" cannot begin and end with copyright law. like obviously at a very minimum you have to discuss fandom...

Show thread

a lot of people who emphasize the importance of analyzing the material conditions underlying things are unfortunately really bad at analyzing the material conditions underlying things...
