Reblog and put in the tags a media you enjoy that most of your friends and mutuals dont know about/arent interested in.

@halogenwarrior A sales pitch to you & anyone else reading this lmfao.

In short:

Children of the Red King (also called Charlie Bone) is a fantasy series aimed at middle schoolers that follows the titular Charlie as he gets into misadventures such as looking for a stolen baby, helping his time traveled relative, and trying to stop an ancient evil sorcerer from taking over the city, and more. Most of the cast has a unique power (called endowments) that helps or hinders Charlie along the way, from boosting electricity to hypnotism to conjuring ghosts with spears. There's a heavy focus on family as well, from Charlie's missing father to his quarreling relatives to the ancient and powerful magician-king almost everyone is descended from. There's very little romance, but not zero romance.

I'm not going to say it's the greatest of all middle school magic books ever, but I do think they're pretty good and worth looking into (add me at K_0809 on Discord for help getting digital versions of the books). If you like reading about preteens with magic powers who go to a gloomy school and get wrapped up in saving other characters from the villains, definitely give it a read!

Unless you're averse to stories where animals are injured (no animal death that I can remember offhand though), then due to an event in book 1 you'll want to exercise caution. There's also a 10 year boy who is blatantly neglected by his parents. As far as more direct harm to children, there's a line in book one about a child getting hit and references to a girl that might have maybe been killed and left behind a tattered cape. Otherwise, the villains prefer to hide children away, leave them for dead, throw them through time, trap them in paintings, and the like. It's a series for children, and nothing is very explicit, so most people should be ok to read the books.

In long (I start rambling so no offense taken if you stop reading here lmfao):

EVERYONE GO READ THIS NOWW

being deep into the yuri rabbit hole will have you thinking thoughts like "which of my wlw ships would be the Worst at making it out alive if their periods ever sync up and they both wanna die and kill because of pms" when you yourself are menstruating

sometimes you invent mind prisons for yourself for no good reason and youre like "i really like being in the mind prison" even though you dont actually like being in the mind prison

“There are no female aliens in our game because we don’t know how to make a female version of this alien” You know that alien you just designed? That male alien? Give it a female voice actor and have characters refer to it as she. That’s it. That’s literally all you have to do 

Make her shorter if you must

Make her BIGGER if you aren’t a coward 

Take your male alien bodytype, make her like 4 feet taller, give her an extra set of arms and sharper teeth, and as muscular as shit.

Boom.

Give her natural camouflage and make the man like this

Make them exactly the same size and shape but different colors

Give him a huge flock of babies following him around to show off what a great lay he is

Surprise mPreganté

Exactly the same but one of them has a cool hat (you decide which)

Give her a sensible haircut for successful hunting while he has a big dumb mullet so big and dumb the food can see him coming and book it

Please just for the love of pie do not begin and end with boobs

“Ghosts are real” I can see how you could believe that

“Ghosts aren’t real” it’s very fair and rational that you believe that

“Ghosts aren’t real anymore” I’m about to hear a poem or very sad story

“Ghosts aren’t real yet” the fuck are you going to do

any time i copy paste a message to send to 2 different chats i feel like such a fake ass bitch but im choosing to look at it as the digital equivalent of standing in a doorway hollering so people in both rooms can hear me

i NEED to sit in chairs with armrests but not for my arms only so that i can then sling my leg over them in a debonaire and extremely comfortable style 

"whats your 5 year plan?" buddy I nearly go insane thinking about what I should have for dinner

Brevity is the soul of wit & this was so damn creative

[ID: a woman stands in front of a hell landscape cgi. she's talking to someone out of view; "... Not supposed to be here, I'm Hindu, I'm supposed to be reincarnated, I told you this bef-"

She's cut off my a section of Lil Nas X's song Montero, specifically the line "... Me in the the mornin', i'll be on...". As the line plays, she looks to the side down, as if something nearby is falling. The music fades in, gets louder, and fades back out. She pauses after it fades all the way out.

"Who the fuck was that??" End ID]

“I told you this before” implying she has died and gone to Hell more than once, either in this life or a past

everytime she dies she has to go through this whole long process of paperwork and bribery to get reincarnated

when i was a kid my Getting To Sleep technique was visualizing a child-sized shriveled up mummy with big piercing eyes that would stand silhouetted in the doorway & stare at me & probably attack if i so much as opened my eyes after getting into bed & this technique caused me to develop a lifelong nighttime-induced paranoia & it still takes me 2 hours to fall asleep. so i wouldnt recommend that
