Chapter Twenty-Six (Part III) | Chapter Twenty-Eight (Part I)

Kerlois: A good day, everyone, and welcome back to Eragon! Last time, Solembum gave Eragon some vague advice, Eragon discussed that with Saphira, and Brom decided to teach Eragon how to read.

( Some setup so we can actually go look at the records. )

If you want to expand all comments on a Dreamwidth page, you can open the console (F12 on Windows), paste this: "$('a:contains("Expand")').click();", and then hit Enter!

If you're navigating via the "previous 20/next 20" (or whatever amount you have) links, the furthest back you can go in plain view is 699 entries. If following the back link would land you at 700 or above, you'll get the same page as you just had. Trying to go back from there, or from a page reached by manually entering a number above 700, will lead you to the day view page for the day before the earliest entry in the overview.

Navigating back via tags stops working at a seemingly random point between 500 and 512, and there's no way to go further back from that.

You may have noticed that titles on Dreamwidth show a tooltip with the title when hovered on. This does not work when the title contains a straight double quotation mark ("), since that makes the title text cut off at the first quotation mark (and means nothing if displayed if the quotation mark is at the beginning). If displaying this title text is important to you, I recommend inserting these quotes by using """ for them.

The lower floor of the royal residence is guarded at its entrances, for obvious reasons. It houses only servants these days, but in past years, it was fully as active as the upper floors.

Left to right, you will see the former bedchamber of the High Lord, the former receiving chamber of the council, a former service chamber, the former and current royal receiving chamber and dining chamber, and the royal sanctuary. The last requires extended commentary.

What are you currently reading?

Aurora Australis, of course! This week we're reading another poem, Southward Bound by Lapsus Linguæ, written by an anonymous writer.

What have you recently finished reading?

I finished K.J. Charles' "A Charm of Magpies" series. I started listening to the first audiobook last week and I didn't stop until I'd listened to all the books and novellas I could get my hands on. As usual, my opinion is under the cut to avoid spoilers.

( Lots of words :P )

What will you be reading next?

Either porn or some crime books *has very clear ideas* I don't know, I could either go for something light, fun and porny or something extremely heavy and plotty with intense criminal activity. I still have to decide.

A friend recently pointed out that most of the books I've been reading are m/m books and I was like... Yes? Half my library is filled with LGBT books, why is it a surprise if I read them? *shrugs*
