I'm not sure if it's it's own form of insanity, having your alter ego use her abilities to help you cope with everyday life by turning all the mental health stuff into Magic analogies...
Uh, but it's working. and if I think about it too hard it'll stop working.
Keri's 75% positive all she's doing is hacking the Placebo effect from behind the curtain.
Me: rational scientist, engineer, machine thinker. A + B = C if (C=A-B) etc.
Also me: Spends two hours lying awake last night in the middle of an anxiety attack talking to three distinct spiritual entities, one of whom was calling bullshit on the whole thing until Kerithe grabbed him and incarnated him so hard his face was pressed up against the glass.
I guess the good news is, we found who's been responsible for the last little bit of intrusive thinking I've been getting.

And that fourth image? I carved a beautiful forest nook right there. I'll get photos next summer when it's fully regenerated.
I'm a little jealous of everyone here whose creative and expressive mediums are Visual Art.
I'm sure you all feel like you're nowhere near as good as you wish you were, but to me, you're unicorn wizards.
My creative artform is property management and landscaping. And, well, anything horticultural. o_o Give me an acre of dirt and I'll give you paradise, just the way you wanted it.
@faygraves I'm still the old model anthro hermdragon. I'm probably going to have to update my form factor soon.
@faygraves Yessss. Big cartoon dragon.

@Pliio Gah, Feels. Kinda... Anything but a straight cis guy. I'm at the point where I hate wearing Pants.
Southern Mass's local machine healer and part time witchdoctor.
Tiny motorcycles, magic potions, machine tools, progressive rock, trance states, and hand sharpened drill bits. Oh, and I read Tarot. Probably 18+ just to be sure.
