identity stuff, plural
we're starting to think that rosemary and alaric are either a subsystem or even possibly a single genderfluid person who we'd mistaken for two non-genderfluid people--somewhere in between is likely
i'm not sure where this will go, but i thought we should let people know, i guess?

trans jargon
The "trans" in "transgender" is Latin for "across to the other side." "Gender" means "kind," and it's related to the word "genre."
In Latin, the antonym of "trans" is "cis," meaning "staying on the same side." That's how we get the antonym "cisgender," meaning someone who is not transgender.
In the archaic phrase "to go hither and thither," the word "hither" means "here, on the near side," and "thither" means "there, on the distant side."
Maybe if you were writing a queer fantasy story with old-timey language, transgender and cisgender could be called thitherkind and hitherkind?
is this just a "we legally have to make it expire sometime but we don't want it to expire so let's just make it expire after we're all long dead" thing?

I wrote a short gift story!
So yeah I promised @Felthry a little while ago that I would write a short story for it exploring the kink of modularity, and I took a bit too long but it's done now!
Content warning for:
- It's furry. Also has robots in passing
- Modularity (that is, detachable and swappable body parts)
- Taurs I guess

computers as crystal magic
there's a timing crystal that gives a heartbeat to several thinking crystals that talk to each other and to memory crystals along carefully arranged passageways of highly purified (magically-receptive/electrically-conductive) metal, with another thinking crystal purely devoted to dreaming up shapes and telling illumination crystals how to light up in patterns to produce those shapes for the (mage/user) to view so they can see what the other thinking crystals are thinking. the (mage/user) can tell the whole apparatus what to do with special hand gestures while holding yet another assemblage of crystals

Plural system of three, Felthry, Alaric and Rosemary. We'll sign posts with a -F, -A, or -R.
