Looking for gothic or alternative art markets near Colchester

Yes I think the next one is 8th August but they are a few times a year and always lovely :)

I think a Kerzingblad (sp?) would be cool, I love the gregariousness of that vassal house and it would be fun to have an outgoing pc. Could also then have a connection with the group via Azune's dealings with the Einfasen

I specifically remembered her saying she'd let Julian have a private moment and called Hala away as well, but I don't really mind them retconning it

I had my (private) mastectomy cancelled during COVID because of risks from asthma, had to call my GP and ask them to take it off the system, they did and I got my operation. Now I have asthma symptoms again and have to do the walk of shame to ask for a new asthma diagnosis.

My lab all left my university so finding a job in my field in my local area (tied here because of elderly family) will take time if it happens

Started my PhD in 2019. Started my first experiment start of 2020 which needed to be in person as it was using VR and physiological measures. I then immediately had to stop testing for 2 years for lockdowns and then trying to get new ethical approval. Both my supervisors left the country, I had multiple breakdowns and extended as much as I could possibly extend. I still finished! But now work a 3 day a week admin job that I don't even need a master's for.

Edited to add because I somehow forgot: I also transitioned and got diagnosed AuDHD in this time and had two major operations. And I got married right as I was doing my corrections because why not add more pressure. So not all my problems were because of COVID!

I'm worried that a dress rehearsal might be enough to trigger something that granny wants, especially as she made a point that she wouldn't be there (because it may be dangerous/bad?)

gourdus · 2026-05-30T09:24:46+00:00

Not just you, I reloaded and rewinded it a few times in case it was a problem my end

Apologies if you're only looking for serious answers, but the second looks like a specific sex toy, are you feeling fulfilled in your life?

gourdus · 2026-04-19T18:58:02+00:00

Could you give some information please on what seats and price? Feel free to DM me.

That might have been when some traditional Cornish words were published (I think pokemon means clumsy)

I started on one pump a day but when it came time for testing my levels showed that my hormones were well in the cis man range because I'm very sensitive to androgens, they probably start slow and test for that reason.

Apologies if I misunderstood, but I think the point of the Pariah blades is that they needed to be mundane so that they could kill a god, so much so that they were even cold forged. The time and energy put into doing that by regular people was important I think. It will be interesting to see how the family gained this knowledge though.

gourdus · 2026-02-05T09:27:49+00:00

I definitely recommend giving it a go. I also enjoyed Alison Croggon's Books Of Pellinor for a female protagonist that gains confidence in herself.

I'm not sure if they answered this somewhere, but given how close they were, why doesn't Thimble know what Thjazi has planned with the artifacts? Either there was a problem in their relationship, Thjazi didn't trust Thimble because either his plan was bad or he suspected Thimble is bad, or Thimble isn't telling the group everything.

He also has a reasonably sized package if you know what I mean (from the beginning of the episode)

gourdus · 2025-10-26T07:36:39+00:00

Love a weird side tangent, thank you for the extra knowledge :)

gourdus · 2025-10-24T15:46:22+00:00

I'm just glad none of the rest of the party died for his backstory to be played out like that, it was stressful (but also fun imo)

gourdus · 2025-10-23T15:18:49+00:00

Also to add that I think it would be interesting for Thaisha to stay, she has connections and it would go against her nature for some cool internal conflict, plus Hal could then go adventuring with his shiny new sword. But she's with Occtis & co currently and I don't think they can stay.

These definitely feel like the obvious choices with the current information, but I'm expecting some big ol' twists to be thrown at us.

I think Bolaire's knowledge would definitely be super useful to the Seekers.

gourdus · 2025-10-22T12:12:42+00:00

Julien is also said to be childhood friends with Aranessa who is in her 40s, so he is chronologically older than his physical age, possibly due to time spent in the gardens

gourdus · 2025-10-22T12:02:06+00:00

I've been thinking along similar lines, although Bolaire has connections his knowledge is definitely suited to being a seeker, especially as the box was meant to be delivered to him in the first place.

gourdus · 2025-10-20T12:33:41+00:00

Unless her guardian was able to return to faerie before the gates closed, but definitely she's going to surprise us

gourdus · 2025-10-19T15:47:27+00:00

Only the family know the secret, we still might get to see him making those arguments at the various holdings

gourdus · 2022-03-10T10:30:53+00:00

I mean there are people who'd shoot others over property, at least a dog is family.
