“The ghost-copy, called Ikol, had neither power nor magic. But what he had was enough – Kid Loki’s ear. With this, he crafted a scheme that would give him control of the godling’s body…

Since I let my birth control prescription lapse I haven’t really been keeping track of my menstrual cycle because there is absolutely no chance of pregnancy when you’re not having sex. This is dumb because it means I don’t know when to start taking precautions against underwear stains… and also because I get blindsided by weird mood swings. When I start crying over dumb stuff, like passages from Nietzsche that I didn’t remember and find tragic and moving (while sitting in a conference talk!), I know I must be PMSing.
I’m also getting weirdly rhapsodic in my writing (yes, I’m working on a paper at the back of the room where the conference is going on) and I’ve been really craving hugs.
