Progress!
This is definitely my creative thing for the weekend. And possibly the next week or so.
I'm drawing on my walls!

For the prompt ‘Together’ I thought I would make a rendition of the spin hug reunion 💜 Eventually I hope to clean and color it

Question:
In my story, one of my characters is disabled due to severe rheumatoid arthritis in their hip and knee. They have access to medicines that help with the pain but not much else, and I am absolutely never doing a magic fix-it ever. I'm not sure at the moment whether they use a mobility aid like a cane, though I think they might sometimes.
For any physically disabled people out there, with similar-ish disabilities (ie, can walk and do physical movements but to do so is painful/uncomfortable/hard), do you have any tips for portrayal of this character? I ask because I myself am completely abled and don't trust anything written by some random abled person on the internet to be accurate. Any comments are welcomed, I would really like to know what you think.

If you are watching a TV show, it can be live action or animated.
But not when you're reading a book. Much to think about.

The something’s wrong voice
PLEASE DO NOT ASK NEIL ABOUT FAN THEORIES!
I've just realised how similar these two little scenes are.
This, literally the first words Aziraphale says to Crowley:
-Hello, it's me. Don't say anything. Are you there?
-Should I say something now?
-No. Meet me over the road from the bookshop.
and this, from their last conversation:
-What's that lovely human expression? Oh, yes. Hold that thought!
And we all remember how the first scene was immediately followed by this acknowledgement:
So, if Crowley knew something was wrong from Aziraphale's voice over the phone right in the middle of their precious, peaceful, fragile existence, wouldn't it be more than obvious to him in the final 15, right before their devastating exchange started. The difference being, of course, that this time Aziraphale literally couldn't tell him: he almost immediately started to stutter. It continues like this:
-I have some incredibly good news to give you.
-Really?
-I, um... So, uh, um.. The Metatron! <there is a pause and he continues>
And this 'Really?' is almost 'You're really trying to convince me it's good with your Something's Wrong voice?'. Which makes me certain that Crowley knew Aziraphale was in trouble and didn't believe Aziraphale was sincere about any of the 'Heaven is good' stuff. Which also doesn't mean that he agreed with his choice, of course.
What's important for me here is a clever and thoughtful Crowley, not just a heartbroken Crowley. Look at him right there, listening and watching Aziraphale with such attention:
I don't believe he missed any hints. I'm sure he'll put 2 and 2 together pretty quickly. This actually makes two clever supernatural beings working on a PLAN in s3. The only problem is they aren't talking.

How to confidently yell nonsense at strangers
I'm trying to get my head around the concept of humor and every day I manage to wedge my skull open a little farther but it still doesn't quite fit
I think it's the autism socialization. I've been desperately trying to make sense this whole time which is often a good skill but here? Utterly counterproductive

This is EXACTLY why Bucky Barnes is my favorite character and it brings me so much joy to finally see a little bit of it on screen.

Tiffany couldn't quite work out how Miss Level got paid. Certainly the basket she carried filled up more than it emptied. They'd walk past a cottage and a woman would come scurrying out with a fresh-baked loaf or a jar of pickles, even though Miss Level hadn't stopped there. But they'd spend an hour somewhere else, stitching up the leg of a farmer who'd been careless with an axe, and get a cup of tea and a stale biscuit.
It didn't seem fair.
“Oh, it evens out,” said Miss Level, as they walked on through the woods.
“You do what you can. People give what they can, when they can. Old Slapwick there, with the leg, he's as mean as a cat, but there'll be a big cut of beef on my doorstep before the week's end, you can bet on it. His wife will see to it. And pretty soon people will be killing their pigs for the winter, and I'll get more brawn, ham, bacon and sausages turning up than a family could eat in a year.”
“You do? What do you do with all that food?”
“Store it,” said Miss Level.
“But you-”
“I store it in other people. It's amazing what you can store in other people.” Miss Level laughed at Tiffany's expression. “I mean, I take what I don't need round to those who don't have a pig, or who're going through a bad patch, or who don't have anyone to remember them.”
“But that means they'll owe you a favour!”
“Right! And so it just keeps on going round. It all works out.”
“I bet some people are too mean to pay-”
“Not pay,” said Miss Level, severely. “A witch never expects payment and never asks for it and just hopes she never needs to. But, sadly, you are right.”
“And then what happens?"
“What do you mean?”
“You stop helping them, do you?”
“Oh, no,” said Miss Level, genuinely shocked. “You can't not help people just because they're stupid or forgetful or unpleasant. Everyone's poor round here. If I don't help them, who will?”

Y'all, the world is sleeping on what NASA just pulled off with Voyager 1
The probe has been sending gibberish science data back to Earth, and scientists feared it was just the probe finally dying. You know, after working for 50 GODDAMN YEARS and LEAVING THE GODDAMN SOLAR SYSTEM and STILL CHURNING OUT GODDAMN DATA.
So they analyzed the gibberish and realized that in it was a total readout of EVERYTHING ON THE PROBE. Data, the programming, hardware specs and status, everything. They realized that one of the chips was malfunctioning.
So what do you do when your probe is 22 Billion km away and needs a fix? Why, you just REPROGRAM THAT ENTIRE GODDAMN THING. Told it to avoid the bad chip, store the data elsewhere.
Sent the new code on April 18th. Got a response on April 20th - yeah, it's so far away that it took that long just to transmit.
And the probe is working again.
From a programmer's perspective, that may be the most fucking impressive thing I have ever heard.
