This is Epsilon 17. An Epsilon class telepathic Reader with off the scale strength. It doesn’t do them much good though, knowledge is only power if you can use it.



But one day, their time will come, and they will destroy the Institute that stole their childhood, their memories and their inner self.

a chapterbook: *came with a stitched in ribbon bookmark, had a cloth spine, had those rough edged finished pages, or came with a map*


8 year old me: i am a 500 year old librarian and this is the most valuable book in my collection. i rescued it myself from a castle as it burned to the ground. *gingerly runs my little grubby hands down its spine and gazes wistfully out of the school bus window* i am the keeper of all civilization’s knowledge

ladyknightkel:



Y’all every once in a while it hits home again that Kel was one of the first and only book characters I encountered as a kid that had exactly my body type and like… it was such a good thing for me and to this day I attribute some of my fitness level to all the times my inspiration was wanting to be more like her.

andhumanslovedstories:



someone: do you watch game of thrones?


me: not for years, but I have an exquisitely plotted story in my head about how Sansa Stark serves as lady of winterfell and falls in love with another northern lady but she doesn’t realize it’s Love Love because she’s just like “what very good friends we are :)” and the other woman is really good at resource management and where to put latrines so people don’t get sick, and they work together and are best friends and maybe more?? Yes, more. It’s a fifteen episode miniseries about rebuilding after war, peacetime governance, and gentle gay love, sexuality, and trust. I have the camera angles all planned out. Arya is there, and she has twelve direwolves puppies that cause mischief. At some point, the whole north is like “There Must Always Be A Stark In Winterfell And It’s Fine If She’s A Lesbian” 



someone: can you pass the salt?


me: Episode Three starts with Sansa standing by her window, watching a pack of giggling small children have a snowball fight. She looks cold, austere. She watches Arya fucking pile-drive a six year old into a snow bank. Sansa’s lip quirks. She is Healing. The plot of this episode is dealing with mice in the grain supplies. Sophie Turner is nominated for seven emmys in one season.

Say hello to Toby, one of the two new POV characters for #wearethecatalyst, book 2 in #thepsionics.



He’s a runner, a physics nerd, a good boy with a soft heart and more guts than sense. He’s also a surprise superhero who has to go on the run from the government who wants to enslave him. Fortunately, my fave lesbian, Serena, is gonna try to keep him alive. And she’s p good at this sort of thing.
