It’s really quite depressing. For anyone not in the know, Changeling: the Dreaming’s main conflict is the rise of Banality (depression, adulthood, bureaucracy, the wasteland), versus the slow and inevitable leeching of Glamour (childhood, creativity, art, fantasyland) from the world. Psychologists and cubicles are just as deadly as Kithain and Fomorians, and as you can imagine, this narrative trends towards horrific in a way you just don’t really get with other fictional settings. Everything good in the world is going to lose. You can never go home. Winter is coming to the Autumn World.

Hmm but a Warlock’s relationship with their Patron doesn’t involve worship (otherwise they’d be a Cleric), so can you really “convert” someone?
Thank you for sharing this article! Going through the longlist helped me pick out some of my next reads (first is All the Little Birds).
Any baby bottles for the baby bottlenoses? <3
I love this instance. Thank you so much guys, all this Meta stuff has been a bee in my bonnet. Forgive the pun.
Oh gotcha, thank you so much!! ❤️

Rest in peace, Don ❤️

That would be a great community to revive here :)
I’ve seen a little bit of the instance on my front page(?) already, kudos! Honestly your aplomb to posting and trying to contribute - even recreating a favorite community - is very reassuring. I have high hopes for the Fediverse :)
Oh same! I also loved that <3 speaking as a fellow autist, heheh, though I had only read mention of that guy in brief. I should really sit down with the novels they made from the setting at some point. Really the conceit of enemies that desperately want to help you, but their “help” is actually killing you, is super interesting to me. Idk. There’s a type of horror there that is unique to CtD, and might even be why I prefer it to CtL.
