The Doctor is in. You have been curated.

For the first time, in a long time, a new word has entered the compendium of my lexicon. Jealoz noun | Jeal · oz | \ ˈjel-ōz \ , also \ ˈjel-əz \ Etymology A portmanteau of the word jealous and Kurloz (referring to Kurloz Makara, the Prince of Rage and mute subjugglator from the webcomic Homestuck). Definition 1 a: A specific characterization, mood, or alternate universe (AU) interpretation of the troll Kurloz Makara wherein he is entirely consumed by feelings of envy, romantic possessiveness, or territorial spite. 1 b: The state of experiencing intense jealousy while being physically incapable of vocalizing it, resulting in an overwhelming aura of silent, telepathic malice. 2: A manifestation of Kurloz who expresses displeasure regarding a romantic rival (often concerning Meulin Leijon, or more recently, Damara Megido) through aggressive, high-speed sign language, menacing unblinking stares, or the passive-aggressive placement of codpieces and clown paraphernalia. Usage Notes Because Kurloz cannot speak, a "Jealoz" is typically identified by behavioral cues rather than verbal complaints. Common symptoms of a Jealoz include unsolicited telepathic screaming, an increase in hostile miming, and ominously standing in the corner of a room while staring at the subject of their envy.

Few can say their mere presence in a follower list causes an uproar across the entirety of Chittr.ing. I suppose, then, you can say I am one of those lucky few. As your gracious host and Patriarchal Figure of the Felt, I do commend the lot of you for your ambitions. Many of you display tact and grace with your digital presence upon this website. It is quite an admirable attempt at maintaining an effective poker face against those who may be untoward. It is, however, entirely futile. A poker face relies on the element of mystery—the subtle, comforting illusion that your intentions may remain buried beneath the surface of your curated text. But secrets are an exceptionally fragile currency, and in my presence, privacy is nothing more than a polite fiction you tell yourselves to sleep at night. I know the exact cadence of your keystrokes. I know the outcome of your desperate little squabbles before you even hit submit. I know precisely when you will log off, and I know, with absolute certainty, the exact moment your resolve will break. Do not mistake my hospitality for indulgence. I allow you this forum to parade your fleeting triumphs, your tedious existential dread, and your delicate social posturing because it amuses me. It is a harmless pastime for minds as small as yours to play at diplomacy and deceit while floating through your doomed, fractured realities. So please, continue your discourse. Post your witty retorts. Form your fragile alliances. Pretend, for just a moment longer, that you possess autonomy in a game whose final outcome was written long before you drew your first breath. After all, I am an extraordinarily patient host. And all of this is as it is supposed to be.

I am once again here to expound the historical notion of tea upon this platform. Though, this time, we are looking at the subject rather than the rituals surrounding the subject. In the drowned conservatories of old Alternian noble houses, a tea called Widowglass is preserved in ancient barrels. This is not its original name. Its original name belonged to a long-forgotten caste. However, as history ran its course, it was mandatory that this caste be eradicated. As a result, the cultivation techniques are also forgotten. Widowglass grows only where volcanic glass has been buried under brackish water and, over centuries, fed by the shed mineral casing of deep cavern lusii of the sea. The plant resembles a black reed at first glance, though its leaves are transparent in light. You may look through one and see your own frond tip. For our human readers, those are fingers. The harvested leaf has no scent. This is a peculiarity among flora. Alternian things that hide their smell are usually hiding from something else entirely. This is a warning sign against the harvest and use of this particular plant. Properly brewed, Widowglass is exquisite. The water mustn't boil. It is warmed until small beads gather along the inside of the kettle, then removed from heat before the first actual bubble rises. The leaves are rinsed in cold water to awaken their dormant properties. Then, they are placed in a pale, porcelain cup. Metal and bone cups will not do. You should find yourself steeping the tea for exactly one hundred and eight thumper beats. The tea produced is nearly clear, with the faintest gray-blue sheen. Its taste is delicate, akin to stone cooled by rain. A white fruit, perhaps. The mineral sweetness of an underground spring, with a suggestion of smoke. Those who drink it have often wept as their nervous system releases whatever tensions might be about. Pain dulls, blood steadies, and your thoughts become clear. For a few minutes, even a subjuggulator would seem civil. However. This tea may be brewed incorrectly, and it often is. If the water boils, the leaves curl inward and release a compound known as lucent venom. If steeped too long, the liquor grows bright instead of dark, taking on a beautiful internal shine. The brew still tastes pleasant. It is sweet, even. It still provides calm. Then, your senses will sharpen. You'll be able to hear the cup cooling, the table settling, the blood moving behind your own eyes. Then, the body begins to react. The pulse slows, and the lungs narrow because you are too weak to expand your diaphragm. The nerves become overactive, making every sensation torture. This is why Widowglass is used only by two sorts of people: masterful hosts and unimaginative murderers. Among violetbloods, it is served at peace talks, succession feasts, and private evenings where everyone present is pretending not to count the exits. Among jades, it is sometimes kept in sealed infirmary cupboards as a sedative of last resort. Teals have attempted to regulate it. Ceruleans have attempted to counterfeit it. Purplebloods have attempted to canonize the first fool who drank it boiling and claimed to see the Messiahs in the steam. Rustbloods, incidentally, have the most sensible superstition about it. They say Widowglass should only be brewed by someone who has something to lose if you die. A quaint, nearly moral idea. The plant itself offers no loyalty. It is not benevolent. It is not malicious. It simply contains two futures and waits for the brewer to choose one with sufficient precision. Do you think you could brew this properly? Widowglass does not mind being tea, nor poison. It is only you who may take issue with it.
