  • Questions regarding badges

    I tried to find the answer to this myself but I can’t find it anywhere! If I’m missing it, please direct me to the correct place.

    I see that many quests offer badges in bronze, silver, and gold. However, I was notified this week that I have a platinum badge in one quest, and a sapphire badge in another. How come those quests don’t show platinum and sapphire as badge options? How would one know if a particular quest has badges beyond gold? Is there anything after sapphire?

    Any help or direction to a chart (if it exists) would be great! TIA!

    books are actually a form of psychological warfare and no one warned me 😃📚

    like WHY did i just finish a book and now i’m staring at my ceiling rethinking my entire personality?? one second i’m like “haha cute enemies to lovers” and the next i’m like “what’s the point of life if he’s not real 😭💔”

    I SWEAR AUTHORS BE OUT HERE PLAYING GOD. they’ll be like “this is just a cozy fantasy!!” and then personally ruin my mental health halfway through 😭😭😭

    BRO I WAS JUST TRYNA RELAX. then they hit me with the “he dies but his love never did” like???? EXCUSE ME I’M TOO YOUNG, WHY PROCESSING TRAUMA RIGHT NOW 😭😭

    also whoever invented plot twists?? yeah i just wanna talk. because HOW you gonna make me trust a character for 400 pages just for them to literally BETRAY EVERYONE LIKE IT’S CASUAL???? ma’am that’s emotional DAMAGEEEE 😩

    not to be dramatic (i am) but when i finish a book i just sit there like “what now.” like my real life is buffering. i walk around like i just came back from war 💀

    AND CAN WE TALK ABOUT BOOK HANGOVERS???? because why does it feel physically IMPOSSIBLE to start a new book after finishing one that shattered me into 69 (😏) emotional pieces 😭 this ain’t healing, this is regression 😭😭

    things books have taught me: — don’t trust the narrator 😃 — if someone says “everything’s fine,” it’s not. — the quiet one will emotionally wreck you. — never get attached. (i get attached every time 💀)

    yeah anyway i’ll be crying listening to Adrienne Lenker in my bed if anyone needs me 😭🩵

  • Why’d you pick your current avatar?

    Is it the colour? The similarity to your real self? A representation of your favourite genre?

    I’ll go first: I got drunk and decided to use the rice bowl avatar, because ”food for thought” was the greatest (and most amusing) thing I could come up with.

    Starter pack Volume II side quests!!!

    So unbelievably excited to see them drop! 🎉 Does anyone else feel like they’re cheating if you join vol ii but not vol i? I only join quests where I have at least 5 books finished or TBR’d, so it feels like skipping a grade to not do vol i too 😂
