CH 22~ Working Vacation
With only two weeks remaining before school began, a combination of mission and vacation was exactly what the Queen ordered. Azure and the rest of her team stomped into the house, Cinnamon included, after their most recent appointment, and Azure called Frannie and Argento down for a “family meeting,” more of an announcement really.

What Still Stands
What Still Stands A Trilogy Spoken by the People Invocation Let this be read without allegiance to power and without fear of truth. Let the words remember what systems forget and speak for what was never meant to be erased. May this offering belong to the people— the living, the grieving, the trying— and return dignity to where it was denied. Read slowly. Breathe between lines. This is not accusation alone— it is remembrance.

Writing About Writing: The Rainbow Trap
The good thing about living in modern times is that LGBTQ representation in media is increasing. Not just in niche and Independant media, either, but also in mainstream media. Books, movies, TV shows, comics... they're finally catching on that LGBTQ+ people form a significant part of their audience, and deserve to see themselves on screen and in fiction, not just as victims in documentaries and true crime shows.

Oooo, that seemed so colourful and pretty. Loved your poem!
Short and very tactile. I can feel the patience in it. I guess this isn’t just about stained glass —it’s about how careful breaking and placing can turn chaos into something that glows. 💖
Wow....
