#brimon

I’m thinking we’re going to return to improv. This method of making the script ahead of time and then adding the prose was okay at first, but now it’s just making the process of writing take longer and longer.

Plus then I don’t get to read a surprise ending right before I post. I’m pretty sure that’s where a large portion of my dopamine came from.

I really hate having to shift the writing process around to accommodate work and a never-ending busy schedule even on off days. If I think about it too much, I spiral.

But, anyway….

Here’s Brittany’s next get rich quick scheme! Brimon moments ahead, but some of them are angsty!

May we present….BRITTCOIN! And if you notice any inaccuracies in how the crypto works, please cut us some slack. Britt and I learned it in a few days during a deep pressurized hyperfocus.

“But there’s one con. He just WILL NOT let things go. I have been asking him CONSTANTLY to talk about the whole Discord nickname thing, and he is being SO uncooperative.”

Bombastine despises Luscinia for being Thrax's favourite entertainer, despite being the one who organised the event that resulted in her rising above him. He's also secretly in love with her, and so is acting like a toddler because he doesn't know how to express his desires in a positive way. He also sucks at riding horses and is jealous of the biceps of a bunch of skeletons. My cringe fail son.

Mathila is a judgemental mother despite her overly positive outlook. Brimon implies he's having an affair with her. She took care of Teshin, and implies they're still friends. He never mentions her. A toxically positive girl boss.

Lodun has incredible anger issues stemming from self doubt, and is constantly plotting to overthrow Thrax, but fails every time. He's desperate for approval, seeing a single supporter as a win, and cares deeply about his great-grandmother and her shrine. The Wall of his house is cracked because he keeps punching it. Another cringefail child of mine.

Luscinia hates being the King's favourite, but doesn't know how to get out of it. She's prone to drastic, dramatic bouts of melancholy. She somehow knows secrets about Duviri that Thrax is implied to either be unaware of, or deliberately ignoring. She loves revenge. She once sang at an event where she was standing on a bunch of eels, that got eaten from underneath her. A girlboss who doesn't want to be.

Sythel is paranoid, but also knows far more about Duviri than apparently nearly anyone. She's terrified of Acrithis. She stays hidden in her house to avoid facing issues which, frankly, is a mood. She also somehow left her face behind in another part of Duviri. I love her, but I hope she gets some comfort. A couple of floofs and some Tasoma Extract tea.

Brimon is a snarky, self absorbed champion racer...who we never see ride a Kaithe. He claims to be better with a sword than anyone, despite never using one that we can see. He brags about being such a good lover, that he's the reason Mathila is happy. He can't believe you beat him, even on the easiest of Kaithe races. He somehow has a copy of the Tales of Duviri with him at all times. A bastard, but a fun one.
