CoS Ep. 6 Was Getting Too Intense, So I Thought 'oh, I'll Watch Some One-shots From The One-shot Playlist'

Help me find a book!

My sister brought up many stranded braiding today and I remembered vague details of a book I read once and now not knowing is driving me insane.

here’s what I know:

I probably read this in middle school, so it was generally appropriate for that age, but I was reading way above my age level so it may have been a little above that

The main character was a girl who’s mom died

she had gigantic, poofy, uncontrollable red (I think it was red (but orange red not died red)) hair that she would put in an 8-stranded braid to keep it out of the way

Her dead (or maybe missing but I think dead) Mom also had this hair and would braid it this way

Her dad braided her hair this special way (because mom was dead) and eventually taught her how to braid her hair this way and learning to do her own 8-strand braid was important to her and s big thing about her independence

I think the inciting incident had something to do with her dad being killed/kidnapped but I might be wrong

she went on some sort of adventure to uncover clues and such that involved puzzle she had to solve that was 8 strips of cloth (I think they were red? (Red as in red, not red as in orange like hair)) that she had to braid in the special way to reveal the secret message, which then told her something about her mom and the origin of the braid

To braid the fabric she had to drape it over her head like hair because she had only ever done the braid on herself and she thought about her missing (or dead?) dad and how he used to braid her hair.

I think there was some sort of wise old man who helped her out with the puzzle but I might be making that up considering my interest in books it was probably fantasy and/or YA but idk

Anyway, lmk if you know what book this is and can confirm this is it a fever dream or have a recommendation on how to find it. Thanks!

Me when I do the exercises my doctor told me to do to help with my disability and they

help with my disability:

Hey also if anyone has some aro/ace/aroace book rece for stories that aren’t ABOUT being aroace but still include it? I just want to see some rep without it being the entire plot. I want to see myself in characters that aren’t defined by being aroace but also see and accept their aro/aceness.

I need some Ace or Aro / AroAce book recommendations!

I've read Loveless and cried at it so many times just relating to it so much.

So please send me recommendations!!

🖤🩶🤍💜

Hope you're having a good week

So. I've stared Curse of Stradanya

Clayton is such a damsel in distress I can't even. Like "Shepherd! Get in front me! Kana, save me!"

I've only even watched session 0.

Also why are some of these episodes literally 8 hours long.

Also also Shepherd! He's such a corny cowboy. His guns are named like justice and vengeance or something. I love him.

James : lifting weights Regulus: Wow… They’re so intense! Lily: I wonder what drives them. James , internally: Oh I am going to be SO good at giving hugs.

Your Stupid Face by Kaden MacKay is so very jegulus coded. Maybe not the theatre kid vibes but the lyrics? Spot on

Spoilers for Once Upon a Witchlight Episode 8 and onward

Currently imagining an AU where instead of having them trade Torbek to get Frost back, Mr. Witch just sends Frost into the feywild to get experimented on. Frost becoming the one possessed by The Other. Frost, who so greatly values his mind and his control of it losing control. The other's reaction to learning Frost is GONE. The Krew going into the feywild to save their friend instead of Zabilna. The Krew having to fight Frosty because he lost control. Frost's guilt after attacking his family. Oh my god
