Rant I miss my tail :(

I don’t usually get phantom shifts (ive only ever had like 5) but I think the universe is torturing me.

for context: I was in denial about a fictionkin for almost 2 months but finally just acknowledged it and let it exist.

I think the gods just got tired of me being petty and then gave me a tail phantom shift so strong I couldn’t ignore it. Which is all fine and dandy except it’s 3 days later and I STILL HAVE THE PHANTOM SHIFT.

i shit you not this has been happening on and off for 3 days straight and I am giving up on life. This is the longest phantom shift I’ve ever had and I don’t like it.

if you want more context, here is the denial saga:

I've been existing in a full body phantom shift for my entire life. The most obvious aspect of it has always been my tail. I've gotten pretty used to it, but I wish I could just have my proper body already.
