Guys people always complain about how monopoly tears families apart but have you played uno? It slowly makes people hate each other and I swear to god There’s so much yelling “I hate you all!” “I choose red” “we are on red” “I choose green ” “but I don’t have green” “red” “seriously?” “I don’t have red ” “I choose green” “FUCK”
Something I find funny is that there's a large gap in Arthurs life that we know nothing about. Assuming he left the DICOMY school at 18, there's 20 or so years that he could have been doing literally anything.
We know what the other adults did
Linus- worked at DICOMY pretty much forever
Zoe - was on the island being her sapphic self and generally being the Greatest
Helen - everything
Charles Werner - actually we don't know this one but based off what we do know it probably involved him being a selfish prick
So I'm taking it upon myself to compile a list of possible things Arthur could have been doing with his life, (getting increasingly unlikely as the list goes on.)
So far I have
studying philosophy Real Hard because as we know he's a Huge Nerd
babysitting or teaching because yknow he'd be good at it
studying ornithology because I'd personally find that kinda cute and funny
maybe he studied marine life bc that one scene where he said chauncey was a jellyfish and I know he probably did all that research specifically for chauncey but my special interest is the ocean so I deserve this
he could have played Jenga for profit bc in that same scene he startled me and Linus with that trick with the books
maybe he studied the blade because he's gay and has a sword
Feel free to add
To end out 2021, here are some more books that fall into the category "it's gay and it slaps." Once again a range of styles and genres, but if there's a queer main character and it's a 4-5 star book, it's gay and it slaps. 😁
Not pictured but also gay and they slap, so they deserve a mention:
- Boyfriend Material by Alexis Hall
- The Incubus series by A. H. Lee (warning that these are an mmf relationship that's pretty weird/paranormal and very spicy but I enjoyed them)
- Covenant (webtoon) by explodikid
- Six of Crows (the first in the duology with Crooked Kingdom) could be on this list, but no one is really explicitly queer until book two. Still a great book though!
Go forth and enjoy, my friends! And as always, feel free to recommend me more. My giant tbr can always get bigger!
I know nothing about castlevainia but I worship the blond he's so pretty
I just looked through my blog and idk what was wrong with me back then I apologize
Sharks I respect
All of them
Sharks I don't respect
None of them
Our 20's may not be roaring but they're certainly doing something huh
Boyfriend Material by Alexis Hall - Fake dating, intense fear of emotional vulnerability, domesticity, great group whatsapp banter: chef’s kiss. This was an ace contemporary UK romance.
Hither, Page by Cat Sebastian - A sweet little pre-war detective story set in a sleepy English village, this was a short read that made me crave some Miss Marple TV specials.
The House in the Cerulean Sea by T.J. Klune - A lovely found-family romance set in a world where magical creatures are treated like second-class citizens, and magical children are sent to surveillance orphanages. A civil servant who is very loyal to his intricate bureaucracy is sent to review a slightly unorthodox orphanage on an island, run by an eccentric and kind man. He realises there’s more to caring for children than ticking all the boxes on a form, and falls in love with the whole island along the way.
The Sugared Game (The Will Darling Adventures #2) by K.J. Charles (review of book 1 here) - A bookseller teams up on a smuggling case with his on-again, off-again hook-up, a government spy who is unwilling to risk his job’s secrecy for their relationship. Sparks fly as they investigate mafia nightclubs and high class fashion events. I love this series!
Gentleman Jole and the Red Queen by Lois McMaster Bujold - A quiet, contemplative book about two older partners (male and female) in a throuple, coming back together several years after their male partner died. This is set in the far future on another planet, but the sci-fi element takes a back seat here as they find a path towards a happy retirement together.
My own LGBT YA novel was just released! The Reckless Afterlife of Harriet Stoker is a paranormal horror about ghosts stuck in the afterlife.
What if death is only the beginning? When Harriet Stoker dies after falling from a balcony in a long-abandoned building, she discovers a group of ghosts, each with a special power. Felix, Kasper, Rima and Leah welcome Harriet into their world, eager to make friends with the new arrival after decades alone. Yet Harriet is more interested in unleashing her own power, even if it means destroying everyone around her. But when all of eternity is at stake, the afterlife can be a dangerous place to make an enemy.
