read a funny (and still ongoing) interactive story about an ant whose qi awakens and which begins to study the dao without, in the slightest, ceasing to be an ant. it got less interesting once the ants discovered culture and writing, because then they became just funny shaped people.

Good pilgrim, you do wrong your hand too much, Which mannerly devotion shows in this; For saints have hands, that pilgrims' hands do touch, And trigger fingers for promethium's kiss.

it was written with my most recent historical figure crush in mind this is the sort of person who if they were in fiction would be of the 'well sometimes terrible people are cute little meowmeows, what are you gonna do about it' persuasion but they were extremely, depressingly real

oddly enough vampires never really grabbed me that way. i know it's sexual metaphor but that never translated into it being particularly sexy for me. 🤷‍♀️ (our trashy gaming novels were the DnD ones rather than the VtM ones 🤪)
