If not, do you want to have children someday? CW: Some spoilers</blockquote>Streak Carryingaton is male and day angel. I'm not going to explain the situation or how their society works; intuit it for yourself.<blockquote>When arguments between my uncle and my mother made my uncle abandon us when I was 10, I had to raise my sisters, 12 and 9. My elder sister is an arrogant bully who will take over Mother's business, and my younger sister is a one-person disaster ready to happen, never studying, always in trouble. They don't like me, though they eat my cooking readily enough. Regardless, what I feel about my sisters should not color what I'll feel for future nieces or nephews. It's not their fault. I'm sure I will cherish them.But raise them as I should?Considering the responsibilities Thorn Rose and I have taken on [they're training to become astronauts], and how devoted she is to me, I am going to feel really bad saying no to family in the face of duty calling us. Men are looked down upon for leaving jobs to raise families, which is what made it so hard to get where I am. I'm feeling miserable about this, especially since I'd find it impossible to refuse raising Thorn's children if she asked. We already get too much ridicule for our exclusive relationship as it is.</blockquote>[Author retains copyright (c)2025 R.S.]<a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/BoostingIsSharing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BoostingIsSharing</a><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/gender" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#gender</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/fiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#fiction</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writer</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/author" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#author</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/mystery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mystery</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/thriller" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#thriller</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/romance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#romance</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/sf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sf</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/sff" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sff</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/sciencefiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sciencefiction</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writing</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writingcommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writingcommunity</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writersOfMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writersOfMastodon</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writers</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/RSdiscussion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RSdiscussion</a>  <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/RSstory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RSstory</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/RSReluctanceStory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RSReluctanceStory</a>

As such, the dominant morality is often screwy and patently unethical, more likely to squelch individuals and their creativity in line with guidelines that conflict with our basic humanity and animal nature.How does the morality of my characters differ from my own? In matters of degree and in measures of what I would like, versus what I am constrained to advocate interpersonally. Wishy-washy? Dang straight. I live in today's unsafe world. Look at what I do rather than what I say, especially on an open Internet. I will say my character's society is not a chaste one—a moral can-of-worms if there ever was one.[Author retains copyright (c)2025 R.S.]<a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/BoostingIsSharing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BoostingIsSharing</a><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/gender" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#gender</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/fiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#fiction</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writer</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/author" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#author</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writing</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writingcommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writingcommunity</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writersOfMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writersOfMastodon</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writers</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/RSdiscussion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RSdiscussion</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/RSstory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RSstory</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/RSInklingsStory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RSInklingsStory</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/RSReluctanceStory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RSReluctanceStory</a>

I discover a lot along the way. I know a lot more about the world I'm writing in than could ever reasonably make it into a story. That would turn it into an essay about a culture or a travel guide for visitors instead.Critically, I leave certain information out in the sense that I never explicitly state certain aspects, or their reason for being. Why? Think of all the technology and traditions we live with in our modern day lives. Do we know why stuff works, or why we cut off the ends of the roast, or question why marriage still exists? No. Some elements need not be discussed in a story, though they unquestionably affect the character's feelings, and guide what happens. Edit: Better that the reader notice the discrepancies and theorize what is common place to the characters but extraordinary to the reader, without stating some things explicitly. Where would be the fun in that? My stories are always mysteries to a degree, and knowing more than the reader is ever going to be told helps with that.[Author retains copyright (c)2025 R.S.]<a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/BoostingIsSharing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BoostingIsSharing</a><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/gender" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#gender</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/fiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#fiction</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writer</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/author" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#author</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writing</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writingcommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writingcommunity</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writersOfMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writersOfMastodon</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writers</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/RSdiscussion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RSdiscussion</a>

RS, Author, Novelist, Prosaist<blockquote><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/PennedPossibilities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PennedPossibilities</a> 753 — Where do your SCs feel the happiest?</blockquote>Here's a variety of SCs.Bolt as an SC in an unnamed novel: She was given part of the attic of a downtown building as an aerie (she is a day angel), and she's built a custom darkroom. It makes her rather gloomy life way happier.Caramello (you cannot pronounce his actual name) from Inklings: Truly, he was happiest before the succession war broke out on Crab Island (think Tahiti). As the son of a second wife of the chieftain, and the youngest over all, he got to live life as a fisher and loved a woman he'd have had as a wife, were it not so dangerous for her to be connected to him. Those days were idyllic.Emeraline from Reluctant Moon: She can never be happy, having failed to have saved the life of one of her twin sisters. She carries that guilt, but not that of killing her sister's murderer or being convicted of killing an accomplice that had surrendered. She's now a high praetorian. As a day angel with an unusual recessive gene, she can kill with her wings. Her author thinks she's actually happiest when using that talent on anyone who would threaten Director Rainy Days, or the occasional slave-killer.Boss Mead from Reluctant Courier: It's probably when dining at a specific delicatessen. He considers that he owns Lowtown Home City's underworld, despite appearing very respectable. Little goes wrong for him, so he's probably happy most anywhere.Chrome from Reluctant Moon: He's a dragon who can still pass himself off as a daemon. When the dragon lords killed his family, a poor daemon village took him in, mistaking what he was at first. Since then, he's used his dual identity to run an underground railroad to spirit away daemons in danger of being made slaves or killed. Despite the hardships in the village, it is there that he is most happy.Cloud Dancer from Reluctant Moon: In the arms his lover who's referred to in the story as "the hawk." The man uses Cloud Dancer and is trying to separate him from his family, but Cloud Dancer doesn't really care. It's with him that he's happiest, when alone and they need only think of themselves, not the responsibilities society puts on them.

Projecting what we think is right, practical, ethical, or moral on another culture has often lead to religious wars or marginalization. The MCs story takes place in a world very different than ours but, through what paleontologists define as convergent evolution, it is also very familiar. It's developed, it's urban, it's modern, with cities and trains and interstellar flight, but without much utilization of electricity. Consent is far more important to them than it is to us, so when it is violated it is more of a big deal. It is not a chaste society, and for good reasons I shan't go into here.Bolt's life from the outside is pretty reasonable. She eats regularly. She has shelter from the endemic furious heat. She has money, though she's allowed barely enough. She's in great physical condition, and occasionally has men in her life. What she lacks is agency. She has been blackmailed. She has no consent in the jobs she takes, though they're rarely onerous except when someone decides to beat up the messenger, her. Some readers might see her as being used or abused physically, but what constitutes that is fungible in her society unlike in ours, and relies on her perception of consent. What's important is that she often has no consent when she might otherwise withhold it. She knows she's where she is because of her own mistakes (her perception, at least) due to ignoring the advice of teachers and parents; she's become apathetic.Bolt's story is about how her hobby leads to her taking more control of her life. Her life is reasonably comfortable, except when it isn't. A 4, with 10 being exceptional.[Author retains copyright (c)2025 R.S.]<a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/BoostingIsSharing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BoostingIsSharing</a><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/gender" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#gender</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/fiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#fiction</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writer</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/author" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#author</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/cozy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#cozy</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/mystery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mystery</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/sf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sf</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/sff" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sff</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/sciencefiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sciencefiction</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writing</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writingcommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writingcommunity</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writersOfMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writersOfMastodon</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writers</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/RSdiscussion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RSdiscussion</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/RSstory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RSstory</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/RSReluctanceStory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RSReluctanceStory</a>

MikeDunnAuthorToday in Labor History August 12, 1936: The First International Brigades arrived in Spain to fight against Franco. Organized by the Communist International, between 40,000 and 60,000 men and women from around the world fought on the Republican side against the fascists. 10,000 of them died. Thousands more international activists joined anti-Stalinist forces, like the socialist POUM, or anarchist groups, like the FAI, CNT and the Durruti Column. Americans defied federal law to participate in the International Brigade, as members of the Abraham Lincoln Brigade. Famous Lincoln participants included Avant Garde composer Conlon Nancarrow, labor organizer Delmer Berg, scifi author Theodore Cogswell, novelist William Herrick. The Tom Mooney Company, named for San Francisco labor organizer, Tom Mooney, who was wrongly imprisoned for the WWI Preparedness Day bombing, was commanded by African American labor organizer Oliver Law, the first African-American to command an integrated American military unit. Many African-Americans joined the anti-franco forces. Langston Hughes, who was writing for the Baltimore Afro-American, said: "Give Franco a hood, and he would be a member of the Ku Klux Klan." There was also a George Washington Battlian, and a John Brown battery. Once the U.S. entered World War II, the FBI recommended that none of the veterans of the Spanish war against fascism be given any promotions within the U.S. military, to prevent the “rise of communists” in their ranks. The House UnAmerican Activities Committee (HUAC) blacklisted all American veterans of the Spanish war.

(Taking, viewing, or both.)</blockquote>As a photographer who's done weddings, events, and fine art <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#photography</a>, I can be more fine-grained in my answer instead of simply stating: Both.I find taking photos far more interesting than viewing them, and I spend much more time shooting than viewing. What I really enjoy viewing is street photography (think Henri Cartier-Bresson), and were I not a shy person, I would engage in it more often. Working a wedding or a child's party, I take candids, not posed pictures. I endeavor to be invisible and capture the special fleeting moments of who people are rather than what they want us to think they are. Kind of like street photography, huh?

Each of them got a copy of my MG story.One of my cousins messaged me last night saying she LOVED the story, and she plans to read it with her students this year (she teaches elementary school). She also left a review, which I appreciate so much!She ALSO said she hopes it turns into a series.

Monologuing.I know, you're laughing now, exactly as I quietly do when it happens. I've lived so incredibly long, and since I always look too young to be taken seriously—I mean, never a day over 24, and look at this healthy skin, perfect posture, never a scar, even with these mistakes. [She waggles a set of mismatched wings, a large blue one and a smaller red one, and she has hooves. She's somewhat of a Frankenstein, but arguably pretty, and perfectly feminine despite her height. Not monstrous at all!] I've been monologued more often than you might imagine. Usually by a man, but not always. By someone willing to try to fight me, wanting to conquer what I hold, disdainful of my use of wiles, diplomacy, coin, or shadings of truth, disdainful of so called soft power. These people have convinced themselves I'm unable to fight back effectively, thus don't fear me as they should. Rarely, it's one who hopes to cow me with words, and puts up a façade hoping I'll concede. I don't usually laugh aloud. Instead, I destroy them.You may have heard that I sometimes monologue. I'll share this secret: I never do anything by accident. Sometimes taking blows and retreating serves my purpose, especially if what a foe wants is what I too want. Sometimes to admit I share common cause with a foe can unravel a greater good. Better they think they've vindicated themselves, so I can distance myself. And watch. And wait. Lifetimes if need be.What? Do I think others might monologue for the same purpose I do? No. Leastwise, not those I've met thus far—and I've lived so very long.[Author retains copyright (c)2025 R.S.]<a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/BoostingIsSharing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BoostingIsSharing</a><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/gender" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#gender</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/fiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#fiction</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writer</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/author" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#author</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/sf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sf</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/sff" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sff</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/sciencefiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sciencefiction</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writing</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writingcommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writingcommunity</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writersOfMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writersOfMastodon</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writers</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/RSdiscussion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RSdiscussion</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/RSstory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RSstory</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/RSInklingsStory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RSInklingsStory</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/RSReluctanceStory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RSReluctanceStory</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/microfiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#microfiction</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/flashfiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#flashfiction</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/tootfic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#tootfic</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/smallstory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#smallstory</a>

It is a glimpse into the tortured apathetic MC, Bolt, who focuses her desire for a normal life denied her into her street photography hobby; she captures glimpses of normalcy. Here she's encountered something else, with a newspaper reporter by her side. <blockquote>The apparition shuddered. I captured the pop of the miracle imploding from waist level: Click!—caught the multistory darkness folding into itself, revealing snarled traffic abandoned on the opposite side of the formerly blocked uptown thoroughfare. Cracked pulverized cement fell, no longer pressed into place against the two buildings. People far from danger dodged back. Click! Gasps, panic, arms over heads, blurred, running. Click! Click!A hand gently touched my arm when I relaxed, stalling me as I brought the camera to eye level. Men knew better than to touch without being asked, even here in the cosmopolitan capital city. I lowered the camera, facing him. His contrite desperate look, hands together still holding his [broken camera]—Click!Reflex portraiture. Of him.He might have been somewhat adorable, were he a day angel not a saint. When I taped his image to my wall, I knew I would stare and stare at that expression. Still, raised in a day angel forest town, I couldn't help but see a saint as a wing-amputee. Feathers like me were a minority in this daemon-majority city, and though I rarely interacted, the people Boss Mead forced me to interact with never hid their disdain for the featherbrained tree tweeter in their midst.</blockquote>[Author retains copyright (c)2025 R.S.]<a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/BoostingIsSharing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BoostingIsSharing</a><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/gender" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#gender</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/fiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#fiction</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writer</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/author" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#author</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/cozy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#cozy</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/mystery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mystery</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/sf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sf</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/sff" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sff</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/sciencefiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sciencefiction</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writing</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writingcommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writingcommunity</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writersOfMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writersOfMastodon</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#writers</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/RSdiscussion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RSdiscussion</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/RSstory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RSstory</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/RSReluctanceStory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RSReluctanceStory</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/microfiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#microfiction</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/flashfiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#flashfiction</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/tootfic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#tootfic</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/smallstory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#smallstory</a>

Her life experience is immense, considering she's immortal. She is always 24 years old in body, and a human memory is limited, so she's generally relatable, wily, and willing to find something interesting.There is that thing about never letting yourself get mixed up with the monied classes, the powerful, or royalty. It's always bad news in the end. And, she owns everything in the world (literally, she just shares it with everybody so long as it pleases her), she's the greatest thaumaturge to ever live (reputedly), and for all intents in purposes she is royalty (she's certainly an absolute ruler).She does give my characters good advice and guidance, though.
