Prompt #26 [CW: read post]
Added 2024-09-09 03:27:19 +0000 UTCso the prompt is [List 6 illegal uses for ground Unicorn Horn] which is a fun prompt but I used it an an excuse for a stoned AMA. [CW: smoking] This starts very silly and a the dice rolls led us to a few times a couple serious subjects get brought up. Just a heads up! I mention how my sexual awakening was not an ideal situation [I do not go into details]. Just a reminder that I don't answer anything I don't want to and am happy to share my perspectives and answers to these questions :)
it was lovely to get back into character a bit
[mmmmmmmmmmk let's make some more smut & silly stuffs this week]
puh-leez post your uses for Unicorn Horn below

2024-09-09 21:54:07 +0000 UTCI was all over the place yesterday, so just posted the prompt reply and ran. Turns out reading/listening is fundamental, but it was a day. Came back today and listened to your AMA. It's pretty rad for all of us that you feel safe enough in this space you've created to share things that are (true but false [but pretty true]) personal. Thanks for the trust you place in us. 💚

2024-09-09 21:12:24 +0000 UTCAnd to reiterate something many people have said, this has been a very fun but also very safe space for us and I rly appreciate the lengths you and all Patrients go to to protect that ❤️

2024-09-09 20:26:46 +0000 UTCCouldn’t agree more with your point about audio erotica being healing. Sorry to hear you had an experience so terrible and thank you for sharing it with us 🫂 I suspect this resonated with many of us and makes the work you do all the more special and empowering

2024-09-09 20:25:50 +0000 UTCnot enough bandwidth last night for reading or commenting, but damn was it nice to come back to today. Doc - you are the shit. And that dude who voices you might have his moments to. I do hope you know how grateful we are for you and all you do. Including sharing SAFE space for us to stretch and grow (remember to do that safety check my man). Patrients - as ever I am in awe. Y'all blow me away every time.

2024-09-09 08:52:24 +0000 UTCDoc, thank you for the AMA…your candor is so very….touching? IDK, I just know that I’m really appreciative of every aspect of the drRapture character and this Clinic (which is very much like s grown up McDonald’s playground). Cheers to you and all you do. As usual, I have not done the assignment but can’t wait to get to everyone else’s presentations!

2024-09-09 06:13:11 +0000 UTCThank you for sharing the silly and the serious with heart and candor. In my own continued healing from such traumas, this is a mix I have really, really appreciated, from many sources [including you] and in myself. You may not be a doctor irl, but stories have been, for me, a potent form of medicine and power. So, here's a silly story from me: You won’t believe this. Will came into the bedroom last night with this massive glowy horn. At first, I wondered if he’d raided Spirit Halloween or been to that hot goth carpenter on St Laurent for some funky alt curtain rod, but no. He told me he’d been playing Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion for the nostalgia, and when his avatar mounted the unicorn at Harcane Grove, the horn appeared in Will’s actual hand. Now, some weird shit has been going down lately: the Father was possessed at church last Tuesday; Becca had something with a demon and an iPhone last weekend; Twitter was ablaze with witches and mysterious garden patches last month or so. But horns don’t just materialize, and especially not unicorn horns, right? Wrong, diary me. They do. And I’m paying for it. See, boy genius [I love him. I really, really do] thought it would be "oh so sick" to grind part of that thing up and see what we could do with it—unicorn horn having the supposed magical properties it does. Well, I have made no less than 6 discoveries for just how wild ground unicorn horn can be. And I need to write them down for posterity…and legality…and sanity: Do Not: 1. Grind unicorn horn pieces in your coffee grinder. Firstly, it stripped the blades; but secondly, being the supposed cure-all it is, the powder seems to have taken all caffeine out of espresso. I am not the woman I want to be this morning. 2. Mix it with ink: words turn to spells in books somehow, right? The ink literally skipped off the page and began to crawl up our walls. It’s spelling out the same phrase over and over: “gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight.” I can’t tell if this is The Ink of Inner Truths, or solely down to the fact that the pilates class upstairs was playing ABBA. RIP deposit. And houseguests. 3. Blow it off literally any surface. I’m not sure how to explain this one, but air ripples and folds around the dust. Somewhere between Madeleine L’Engle and Philip Pullman, but we think we’re seeing other universes in specks. Quite cool in a test chamber, deeply unsettling in the shower. [can they see me?!] 4. Sprinkle it on house plants. We’re having a Strega Nona’s pothos situation here. Would be neat, but there’s a vine wrapping around my ankle right now, and not in a fun way. 5. Place it anywhere near a lightbulb. We put the coffee grinder back in its place on the shelf, next to a little lamp, and the lightbulb began to proclaim ideas. The ideas are alarmingly focused on war strategy. 6. Lick it without known magical purpose. This should be fairly obvious, but angel did it anyway. He can’t stop speaking in medieval-ese: “May I remove thine undergarments, my lady?” I’m kind of into it, truth be told, but outside of our apartment, everyone keeps asking him for directions to the Renaissance Fair. And vocabulary really failed him at the Verizon store. TTYL [unless the horn has other ideas]

2024-09-09 05:50:51 +0000 UTCOkay so you’re a goofball but also a big soft teddy bear. This is also making me realize I’m not sure when my sexual awakening was? I must have had one but truly can’t pinpoint it. But my first time … oof, that was awful. Really sucked. Quinn has helped a lot with that healing. Thank you to [the man behind the character] for opening up and sharing what feels comfortable. Have a nice week ❤️

2024-09-09 05:42:52 +0000 UTCThere are many different ways Doc could have reacted to that situation… impressed but not surprised that he took the empathetic route. Adore an emotionally intelligent and open man.

2024-09-09 05:28:21 +0000 UTCMindfully trying to avoid therapy-talk but touching on the delicate subject nonetheless: as someone who struggled with shitty, unfortunate experiences and SA, what you said really resonated - the healing is a big perk of this responsible, safe exploration and connection. Finding this world was a highlight of my year.

2024-09-09 05:18:50 +0000 UTCHoney, you being willing to say that gay guys (who are often very sexually aggressive but less physically aggressive than straight men) made you uncomfortable (because you wanted them to stop and they didn’t take the social cues you were trying to use to be nice and not awkward) makes me want to simultaneously whoop someone’s ass (verbally, naturally) and hug you in both comfort and gratitude. Men who are willing to admit that other men have made them uncomfortable and are willing to apply that knowledge to their interactions with women are worth everything. Worth whatever they desire. Just for being not like the rest of them.
