@BathysphereHat thats fair. Just tossing noodles at the wall

@Talcott and I really like reading what you write

@Talcott (sweetie bear we're TF furs between us we likely have dozens of alternate shapes and looks hahaha)

@Talcott I LOVED the short fic. It was a real joy to read it and very special. Thank you!

Hence sharing the image :D Shin did a great job creating a unique dorky dragon look for me. I didnt know you'd go dragon I figured you were going to turn me into hoard treasure like a stuffed toy :D

@Talcott *puffs out bubbles for a moment as I wobble a bit my noodle dragon body stumbling* well goodness that really was a smooch to remember!

(art by @ShindenWolf sorry it doesnt perfectly match your description but oh gosh love your drawing too!)

@BathysphereHat At the risk of commenting on something I have never seen is it possible this is that old problem of people fetishizing the "simple life" and chores of folks?

@mtkanjon whats this?!

@BathysphereHat I mean who doesnt?

@Talcott yeah sure sounds fun!

I mean the context of Julius Caeser, which we know Shakespear knew about, was that Rome had already had a hundred years of increasing strife and instability with an increasing instability in government including multiple armies marching on Rome.

However, this play was done during the 00's and I think there was a commentary on the frustration of regular people to respond to government policy and that regular people just had to keep living in unstable times.

I think I have said this before but every once in a while I think about this great production of Shakespeare's Julius Caeser. It was a "use modern tech props" show and one of the set pieces was just this normal guy in the back ground who was working at a desk computer. Even as Rome went through a massive crisis and bloody war he just kept working. That image of the guy working at his computer and sometimes responding with frustrated hand gestures to actions on stage stuck with me.
