The first verse of the Fates in Doubt Comes. Lyrics for the New York Workshop:
Doubt comes in and strips the paint. Doubt comes in and turns the wine.
Doubt comes in and leaves a trace of vinegar and turpentine.the Edmonton production:
Doubt comes in, the wind is changing. Doubt comes in, here comes the storm. Doubt comes in and back the same way that took her from you before.
and the production in London:
Doubt comes in, the wind is changing. Doubt comes in and call its blow. Doubt comes in and it leaves a stranger walking on a road alone.

Probably more common than you think is the trope of dragons just shapeshifting into a regular dude or whatever and spending time chilling in their favorite village and everyone is like “Oh yeah, that’s Dragon Dan. He’s nice. He collects bottle caps and gives us good harvests as long as we let him nap under the blacksmith’s shop every 100 years or so. It’s nice and warm.”
Then there’s always some unfortunate asshole who tries to give that town trouble while Dragon Dan isn’t having a 100 year cat nap or whatever and then Dragon Dan does that Superman chest-flick move and launches them three miles into the surrounding forest.
Anyway, dragons have favorite cities and sometimes it’s a shitty hamlet in the middle of no where and you never know so like towns regularly claim like “oooh don’t fuck with this town. We have a grumpy dragon that really likes our taco stand. You better not fuck with it. It’s their favorite taco stand and they’ll swear a blood oath against you if you fuck with it.”

Caduceus: Refers to his god as “Mother,” she talks in gentle guiding tones
Jester: Her diety was her childhood best friend, he praises her for her practical jokes

One of my fav things about Gandalf is, he can & canonically does Full Name hobbits when he’s angry like he’s their mum or something
important follow up Qs:
1) does it frustrate Gandalf that he can’t do this to Bilbo & Frodo with the same impact bcos they don’t have nicknames
2) does he do it to non hobbits
Gandalf, in the distance: ARAGORN SON OF ARATHORN
Aragorn: oh shit I’m in trouble
May I also bring up the scene in The Two Towers where Legolas sees eyes in the woods and starts riding back, and Gandalf calls him back with a “STAY, LEGOLAS GREENLEAF!”
He really does it to non-hobbits too. He’s canonically done it to an elf.
I completely forgot that & thank you for confirming it’s canon
The more ‘son of’s he adds, the angrier he is
“LEGOLAS GREENLEAF, YOU SIT YOUR ASS DOWN AND LEAVE THOSE TREES ALONE OR SO HELP ME”

why in the world are we still asking this question in 2019?
Trump: says and does racist things.
People: call Trump racist.
Journalists and politicians:

Ok but like
There’s no benefit in her going on live television and saying Trump is a racist without elaborating on the subject
What he’s asking is a leading question and sure, taking his ‘how can you say that’ out of context works well to make him seem like he supports Trump but that’s not how it was said in the interview. How it was said was to get her to continue to talk about why Trump is a racist
Don’t believe me? Skip ahead in this video to 0:15 seconds and listen to the entire thing in context.
She then goes on to ELABORATE on how he uses dogwhistles and his reaction to Charlottesville (by calling Nazi’s fine people) so people who tune in to the interview can draw connections to what she’s saying as opposed to just reacting, like op did, to the exact words that are said.
I think too many people on here fail to realize that news, real news, isn’t done by just saying shit. You have to be able to back it up and in order to do so, you need to be able to spell something out for people who don’t get it. And someone who already has been criticized by people for her views (including by people on here, bizarrely, because they keep things she’s said out of context) need to be able to get all the information out there.
#literally nobody sharing the original post watched the interview nor do they ever watch news in general #and none of them understand what a leading question is #and like I get that people who stan AOC are trying to make her look like a maverick truth teller against a corrupt media #but that’s incredibly stupid considering that Anderson Cooper was giving her an opportunity to say all of this

Story idea when you try to actually write it:

Story idea when you first rewrite it:

Getting closer to what you saw in your head, eh? Keep at it!
Your story when somebody else sees it:

hhhhhHHHHHHH
(⚪д⚪)
This is a lovely post. It goes to show that when we percieve our own work, most of us have some type of insecurities about our own talents.
Also possibly relevant is that probably when Van Gogh finished Starry Night, he jumped up and down in frustration for a while because it didn’t look as good as it had in his head.
Tolkien used to complain that he could never write anything as well as he could imagine it. So you know, ‘good enough’ is definitely a thing.
Aim for “Finished, Not Perfect” because with above logic, it’ll seem perfect to everyone else
