Starlight Manor
Once Mayuri departs from the guest room and Lise enters, Alois all but disappears out of her sight. His only words to Lise before he goes, before she can ask him any of the thousands of questions bouncing around in her jumbled brain, are to stay put and not follow him. A command—as always.

Starlight Manor
Never in Lise’s life has she seen a house like this. Every inch of it, from the arched doorway all the way down the front hall, is intricately drenched in an aura of uncompromising wealth, a wealth of the likes she’s never seen. The floors, vast and cold and unyielding, are a polished white marble, and the loud, slapping sound of Lise’s bare feet echo against it throughout the hallway. She glances this way and that, attempting to take it all in as the old man, a platter with a couple of fancy looking beverages balanced expertly on one hand, guides them down the long, winding hall. White, thick candles glow warmly in golden sconces all the way down the tall black walls, the warm glow of them reflecting faintly off the marble floor. Alois is quiet and serene beside her, the candlelight flickering off his sharp, pale face, failing to warm the coldness of his eyes.

Thank You, Makima
*Mild spoilers for Chainsaw Man, but nothing explicit!* I love anime and manga. I’ve loved it for a long time. But I’ll be the first to say it: anime and manga often lack good female characters. This especially goes for shonen anime, anime aimed at younger males, where the most important characters are almost always male. If there’s a female character, she’s usually there to be either a side character or the love interest. That’s the way it tends to go. Hey, I don’t make the rules.

The Elasticity of Opinions
Debates and disagreements on all things political, religious, economic, racial and social are very much a part of human life. As people, we are all so vastly different with unique lived experience, upbringings, viewpoints, and biases. If we operate in a world where we express ourselves and our thoughts and beliefs honestly with others, especially others who are in fact so different from us, debate is only natural. I have learned so, so much from talking about important subjects from debating with other people.

Centipede
Melody rinsed the last of the toothpaste from her mouth, looking up at her reflection in the mirror. Tired brown eyes stared back at her, the dark circles under them prominent. Her frizzy black curls were messy and pointing in nearly every direction. She’d had a long, aggravating day; her boss had been on her all day long, and she’d only gotten home an hour ago. Her body burned and ached with exhaustion. She wanted nothing more than to crawl into bed and sleep the night away.
