I have yet to read a novel in which female characters have menstrual cycles
me, because badass girls taking down a vague yet menacing government agency or riding dragons to glory still get their periods (via darn-you-cumberbatch)
#this was a running gag in a fantasy novel i wrote a long while back#a group of college kids were transported to another realm (like y’do)#and one of the ladies would go from town to town in search of something resembling a pad#and at one point in the middle of a strategy meeting#she loses her shit and shouts ‘i’ve been bleeding out my vagina for the last four days into a bunch of fucking rags#’so i really don’t have the patience to deal with your bullshit about entertaining your troops on the road’#and if you open your mouth again pescek i swear to every god i will reach right down my pants grab my bloody rags and THROW them at you’#and the king just stares at her and is like ‘her. i want her to lead the armies.’ (via rcmclachlan)
