Beeeg, this is a political intrigue game set in a fantasy off-shoot of cold war Russia. Of course the characters are naked.

that'd just be, like, mundane irl polyamory. Except I assume they wouldn't need as big of a bed.

From what I can remember from the lore, changelings have different personalities for each of their 'faces', and thus person A face A would be in a relationship with person B face B, and would not be attracted to person B face C or any other identities

that being said, partners whose love for each other trancends identity would be a really sweet story

when the DM says you can't use point buy for your stats

I mean props to the DM for saying the current queen is ruling properly. They could've just been like "oh this queen just thinks she can rule as well as a man. she's actually hot headed and you note that public executions rise during a certain time of the the month"

I apologize, my goal dose is 4mg, so for my 40 mg/mL vial I planned to inject 0.1 mL and drew about 0.16 mL. I lost a zero when I was recounting the process for the post. I watched multiple videos for general injections but did not see one specifically for HRT so your linked video will help in the future.

Something I'm realizing now is that I used a 3mL syringe, which explains why I wasn't able to easily manipulate the smaller dose. I'll make sure I have smaller syringes for my later injections.

I used a calculator on the internet to see how much solution I would need to inject to get the desired dose and I believe it was 0.1 mL. Due to the size of my syringe, when I drew that amount the first time I wasn't able to get any of the solution out of it, I depressed the plunger to the end just getting the air out. So I drew a bit more and some of it stayed in the syringe. I probably ended up with a little more than I had planned but not 60% more

that's really good to know 😬 I'll stick to the frontside then. Means I have less improvised yoga to do anyway.

I'm underweight but I have legs like a, uh, someone who does a lot of walking. So I've got enough muscle to inject in the front of the thigh, but probably not enough for subcutaneous.

Hi, I took my first estradiol cypionate injection this Sunday after staring at the bottle for about a month and I've been experiencing some muscle soreness since. I just want to make sure I haven't fucked up something beyond repair, and it would be nice to talk to some humans about this rather than just following directions off the internet. I'll include my process at the bottom but if someone can tell me "no that happens to everyone, you're good" it would really help me. I understand there's a lot more that goes into DIY HRT and I'm working towards that too.

Injection process I followed for scientific rigor:

SpoilerI followed the directions as well as I understood it: using a luer lock syringe, I drew 0.1 mL from my vial using, I think it was a 22 gauge needle, after wiping it down with an alcohol pad, then realized I wasn't going to get that amount out of the syringe due to drawing it incorrectly or some other mishap, so I drew more of the solution, about 1.5 mL. I swapped the needle out for a 25 gauge, 1.5 inch needle which was recommended for intramuscular injections, then I stared at the needle for about ten minutes trying to keep my hands from shaking due to a currently very inconvenient phobia of them, then injected the solution into basically the meatiest part of my glute. I'm underweight, so I assume my options for injections are fairly limited. No bleeding occurred, and the injection site looks like a small red pock currently

yeah if my group did this for me I'd involuntary detonate from the attention
