The Technicolor Out Of Space @neonNeptunian@awoo.space

[winter noises]

Even the sun sleeps today:
She rests as mote of silver,
an iridescent smear on a grey-blanket sky.

Below, the earth copies its sister:

Both gently wrapped
in cloud
and rime

In the hopes that
just maybe
they may find each other
in the same dream.

GERBLINS

Here we sit at the nadir
at the darkest point, at the Bottom

but if you look above
you can still see the faintest glimmer of light.
even if you can't,
if the distance between the benthos and pelagos is too vast-

take heart.
the dark will not be everlasting
and light shall return-
and we /will/ make it through.

I tend to wind up picking a song and kind of repeating it a lot. Comfortable sonic warding.

The current approach seems to be 'submerged in a sunset summer sea', unintentionally. Still. Soft jams.

I'm very okay with this though. 💜​

except after the end of three days it's less 'your soul is mine now foreve mwahahaha'

and more 'oh, dear. c'mon. let's go get you some nice tea, some kelp-biscuits, and we can talk it out. It'll be okay.'

anyway in summary: ocean faerie magic is basically me and that's p cool? n..n

'for payment i'm taking away your voice, hopefully without being able to hold conversation you can realize how garbagely superficial this dude you just met and are super-crushing-on is'

'and, like, tbh, how kind of most of those surface dudes suck??'

'for real though. i'mma level with you. you could do so much better, friend. like, i'd *love* to be wrong, but--'

'okay wow you actually still want this OKAY FINE. Don't say i didn't warn you!'

from the birdsite, i have found now the best take on Ursula (https://twitter.com/pangmeli/status/941331629934510081) and went to back to watch/listen to Poor Unfortunate Souls and, wow, dang

sassy oceanic witch delivering fae-like deals that are ultimately intended to Help People Figure Their Shit Out? holy blap that was my jam before i knew what my jam was

maybe about 20% more seelie for me, personally but, like,
damb HOW DID I FORGET ABOUT THAT SONG

Sometimes, back home, i'd sit in a coral reef, and listen. They're alive, you know: a reef is both the city and its inhabitants, both the shell they build of themselves and the soft frond-children who sit on their boughs.

They speak as one, they dream as one. Slow, ponderous, yet ever-gentle.

It's difficult to *talk* to them, but listening...

their songs and sighs, though hard to follow,
always seem to talk about just how wonderful creation is.

Countless hearts, awash in awe.

Good morning! Here are some chill jams to start your day.

The sun is out, and light still continues, even in these dim days. Draw solace from that.

You’ll do good things today. 💜

I hope that,
Wherever you are in the world,
That life just...treats you kindly today.

You deserve warmth and kindness. 💜

LB: aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa <333

a bit of playing songdrum
evoking a dreamy reverie
as if from a neptunian monastery

gentle echoing chimes, like the stirring of sunbeams, welcoming you to the day

...i forgot how much i enjoy playing my songdrum. i need to play it mooore

and record stuff.

I also need to figure out where I could host those recordings.

(i mean there's youtube i guess??? 'person in deer mask playing handpan' would make for Weird Content)

is glowtide tree, festooned and adorned with love! The orb flashes all the Useful colors. @_@

it glowtide!
happ! glowtide! *tosses kelp-based confetti into air*

Anyway. I hope today treats you kindly, okay?

You too deserve happiness. 💜​
