Being a ranger I spend a lot of time alone in the wilderness for hours in the company of one of four co workers.
One such worker for the purpose of this post we shall refer to as Dave.
Dave is a very quiet man. He confesses that if conversation happens too quickly and for too long he gets tired so we often work in silence. He's very polite and good natured but it's obvious that he would happily live and work alone for the rest of his life given the option.
He's very much in the previous generation of ranger, a practical man in his fourties or fifties happy to be kept physically busy for a day and then be sent home with some pay. I had to show him how to use a work issued smart phone.
Meanwhile the rest of the team is made up of the current generation of rangers; openly nurodivergent queer women in their twenties or thirties who work this job because it's the only setting where we can vaguely look sane.
So Dave sticks out a bit. It's really nice when he opens up though because he's an impulsive individual when left to his own devices and has plenty of stories to tell if the mood takes him. I really like working with Dave.
Anyway, one day we've got a job that takes a three hour hike to get to and early on the topic of deer comes up.
I hadn't realised this was the first time we had discussed deer, but blatantly it was. Dave's entire demeanour changes, there's a bit of passion in his voice, but it's also hushed as if he's talking about something sacred.
"Deer are my favourite animal." He says.
I'm also eager to hear Dave talk about himself, so I encourage him to say more.
"I'd love to be a deer myself."
And more
"If a genie offered me the opportunity to become a deer I'd take it. I wouldn't even stop to ask what the price was."
And more
"Sometimes I feel like I'm a deer having a dream about being a human.*
And there I am, a long time commuter to the therian/otherkin community keeping up the encouraging face of someone being politely interested, knowing that this man is straight up a therian with no frame of reference.
And I decided that I wouldn't push the subject outside of the bounds of what Dave is comfortable with, I wouldn't try to teach him the terms "Therian" or "Otherkin" but absolutely I would talk with this man as if he's a deer.
And it's a bit magical really. He's an impulsive individual so I have to talk him out of some risky choices every so often and "this is why deer like you keep getting stuck in fences" has become this magical phrase that allows him to step down from a mistake with a bit of a smile on his face.
Just a few seconds ago
I remember
Life seemed so grimm
So dark
So mean
Until i told you the truth
And we changed
We changed things together
Just between us
And the world
With your kindness
Grew brighter
I coudnt see the sun
Until i talked to you
I couldnt see the clouds and how they drfited
So soft and wistfully
Until you made me smile
You whisked me away
So unknowingly
From the darkness ive surrounded myself with
And it wasnt until then
That i saw how beautifully the blue sky was
And that i remembered
How the clouds reminded me of your dress
The dress you wore when we first met
Ill never forget
Not that day
Not that dress
Not you
Not ever.
Going to add lore to my little story
Going to make it so if you want to sacrifice a person, you need their permission, but if the person is a parent with a still living child (direct child, not step) the child can give permission for their parent/s to be sacrificed to the gods.
Only works with mothers/father and son/daughters
Your niece cant give your soul to the gods unfortunately and neither can your granchild
But your direct kid can
If your lips get chapped, then does that mean the skin on your anus gets chapped, too?
Okay can i be honest here? I really hate it when people say this. Some do. Very few. I got one of the very few. My managers son is a straight trans man, and is one of the craziest, kindest ladies I've ever met.
I work at a ren faire, and in my first year, i didnt have any garb to wear that wasnt fem (im trans masc) so when i got the company provided uniforms (they were trash) my manager noticed i didnt have a belt. What did she do? Asked her son who previously worked the faire if i could borrow a belt. She came back with a belt and said "here, my son said you can keep it, he doesn't use his stuff much any more :)"
And this belt has been my day to day belt every day since then. That was 3 years ago.
Another instance was relatively recently, where i had my sr prom. I didnt have anything masc to wear. So what did she do? Asked her son if he'd be alright with me borrowing his clothes, and he was. I ended up being able to find everything i wanted through thrifting. Her son even wants to go thrufting some time!
And if i see ANYTHING saying the ren faire isnt a real job because it's only during the weekend or some other bs BECAUSE IT IS and i would claw my way through for that statement and my manager and her son and my whole work team because theyre all so lovely and nice.
