197 - A God, Rejoicing

Lin

I spent most of today sleeping.

Though I did have a very interesting dream.

From what I could see, I was basically going to get married.

We even had our own house ready.

Now, I wouldn't even think about marriage at the phase of life I'm in.

Plus, spiritually, I have a husband I have yet to find on the physical, and that man definitely wasn't him.

Besides that, I've had a specific Paramore song in my head all day, and somehow, it feels like a good portent to something more.

Somehow, I know that I've got nothing but time on my hands.

And soon, I'll be able to fly away.

Just like I've been praying for.

I sense a gentle tap on my head, and as I turn, Philotes casually slides into my field of vision.

Για.

I grin.

Για, cousin.

She takes a seat, passing me what looks like a box of chips.

For the ones that got ruined earlier.

Ah, ευχαριστώ.

Παρακαλώ. 

She rolls her shoulders, then stretches her arms high above her head, before carefully yet gracefully setting them back down again.

I hear you've been asking for godly help.

I nod.

I need people to understand me, to know that I'm a God, and to be able to help me.

She nods, pinching a chip from my box, before continuing.

Then I can help you with that. I know a place - and some people - that can help you get well again. 

Through the ISEN?

Ναι. They're experts on this, so I'll make sure they get onto it as soon as possible. 

Also, I've prepared some people to be friends with in multiple different areas you may move to, so let me know where you end up. 

Reaching over, I envelop Philotes in an embrace that she returns with mild enthusiasm.

Ευχαριστώ. I'll not forget this kindness.

She ruffles my hair.

I'll always help you if and when you need it within reason, and I'm sure that plenty of other people that care about you would say the same.

Now, should we watch something?

I nod.

Sweet Tooth.

Ah! The new season recently came out, right?

I nod.

Then let's go.

51 - A God, Reaching

Lin  Yesterday I had a panic attack almost as bad as the one I had at UC about a month ago. When they come up, it's crippling. I always knew that my panic attacks came from the concern of how much physical energy I would have to do a certain thing, and whether or not I'd end up being vulnerable in a public place. Again, it was always mrs voldy who said I was vulnerable, when in truth, I am about as vulnerable as anybody else who is white and femme presenting. Which is, to an extent, vulnerable, but not the sort that I was being led to believe. And anyone without the proper support they need is vulnerable to an extent. My limbs and head ache with the tension that I was doing my best to avoid. My kidney isn't particularly happy, either. I'll bet you anything that if the doctors ever get a look at my kidney, they'll find a laceration where I was stabbed. It's not subtle. They'll see it. And then the voldys will be in serious trouble. I had to speak to another c

266 - A God, Green

Lin I visited Greenwich today. After the reclaiming last night, it only felt right. What I found there is still something I'm processing. Let's just say that the people of Greenwich remember me, and venerate me. They've built a statue of me near the Millennium Sundial, marking the entrance to a huge nemeton that spans from there across Greenwich Park, to the Cornish Rebellion Memorial. Knowing that the people and spirits of the area remember me and love me brings tears to my eyes, even now. Somehow, I managed to do what I set out to in the first place - take back the meridian that's mine. Frankly, I thought I'd have to wage all out war to get it back - and I'm so grateful that I figured out a quicker, more peaceful way of liberating Greenwich. Currently, I'm back at the first nemeton, helping Arthur with his maps. My new nemetona have now been marked on the map, and some of mine and others' older ones are also being dug up by the timeline enchantment I p

300 - A God, Shedding

Lin Over the past few weeks, my energy has felt really low, both physically and mentally. But especially mentally. Physically, it's started to become worse, particularly after switching between distance reiki healers I use on YouTube. Yet something tells me that with this change, I'm shedding energy, like an old skin - just like I would in my Gorgon form, shedding snake skin from my hair every now and again . As they like to say... "Out with the old, in with the new." Take today, for example, when some people came over to clear up the house's greenery, which was long overgrown - that had to be pruned in order to make way for the new. I'm considering asking my caseworker about the kinds of flowers we could put in our garden - though they would need maintenance.
