House Rules, By Rachel Sontag

house rules, by rachel sontag

Yall wanna be gnc and androgynous but hate intersex people and the idea of being intersex so much, I remember reading about PCOS potentially being considered an intersex disorder and having 100s of people dismiss it because "we can't just be calling 1 in 10 women intersex" or being in transmasc spaces and constantly being told that bottom growth and T dicks are undesirable and that people find non standard genetalia gross, in a GENDER INCLUSIVE SPACE.

The lgbt Community seriously needs to grapple with its hatred of intersex features and stop seeing androgyny that isn't pretty waify white person. You all love femme presenting androgyny but hate when people are androgynous in a broad or hairy way.

I do also find it interesting that it's canonical that any abilities learnt after level 70 are all made up by the WoL. But a general theme around those abilities regardless of Job is repentance, self-sacrifice, fury, lots of heavenly/divine stuff, and it's like... Is the WoL okay?

But also in my head, thinking about Mono prattling on about Confiteor (Latin for "I confess"), and Alphinaud following nem around the house like, "Bubby? Bubala, are you okay? I don't think you're okay," is just so funny to me.

Mono: "This move is so cool."

Alphinaud: "I am worried for your mental health."

Of Trolls and Head Injuries

This is set sometime between 6.0 and 6.1. Mono got seriously injured at the end of Endwalker, so the time between 6.0 and 6.1 is about a year.

I normally read and write very kinky smutfic, so I wanted to try my hand at something else entirely. I want to do more of these types of fics.

Everything you need to know about these two is that Mono is constantly throwing nemself headfirst into literally everything, it doesn't matter what it is, and Alphinaud frets about nem the entire time. And then uses anything as an excuse to baby nem afterwards. They also constantly bumble over each other but that's something else entirely.

Mono uses ne/nem/nir pronouns, but ne also uses they/them, he/him, or she/her, so if you're having a hard time conjugating nir pronouns, you can use one of those.

Enjoy!

Mono likes to sit down outside and stim using nir magic. Usually ne likes to use nir starglobe, because Astrologian spells are peak Autism for nem, and also watching it spin around makes nem go brrrrr, but ne will also build up Requiescat so ne can do a Confiteor/Blade of Faith combo.

Yes, Alisaie often misinterprets nem stimming for training, and Alphinaud often has to tell her, "No, ne isn't training, ne's just doing that because it makes nem happy."

And her impatient arse is always like, "??? What are you talking about?"

Alisaie: "Listen, if Mono spends so much time training, then I have a lot to catch up on."

Mono: "Ooo hoo hoo hoo, pretty colours. 🤩"

“No writing is wasted. Did you know that sourdough from San Francisco is leavened partly by a bacteria called lactobacillus sanfrancisensis? It is native to the soil there, and does not do well elsewhere. But any kitchen can become an ecosystem. If you bake a lot, your kitchen will become a happy home to wild yeasts, and all your bread will taste better. Even a failed loaf is not wasted. Likewise, cheese makers wash the dairy floor with whey. Tomato gardeners compost with rotten tomatoes. No writing is wasted: the words you can’t put in your book can wash the floor, live in the soil, lurk around in the air. They will make the next words better.”
