how things go with be my safety? no pressure just asking! ☺️

Hi anon! Progress has been slow. I’d say I’m about 1/3 of the way done. I have a break from school in a few weeks though, so hopefully I can get a lot of writing done in that time!

Surprise (at the)  Party

Just read the new complaints being filled by Esmé Bianco against Marilyn Manson and I’m honestly sick to my stomach. As if dumb and dumber didn’t put her through enough... I honestly do not know how she is still standing. The strength this woman has is unfathomable and the fact that she is using her voice to empower other survivors is incredible.

Hi! It's me, the anon who asked about the Fridays leading up to FIiL. Totally saw it as part of TDBF series. Not sure if these work for prompts but was thinking of the first Friday (how did Gendry end up at Aryas and how did the evening go?) And maybe some Fridays after that in vignettes showing how the relationship grew and when their feelings started to change

Hi anon! I absolutely LOVE that idea! Definitely worth exploring in future chapters!

The latest update for The Days Between Friday was great. I adore the universe you created. Would you ever consider writing a The First Friday(s) detailing the Fridays leading up to the one that starts the story? I know you hinted at how it started in the main story but I'd love to read more about what led up to THAT NIGHT (from either or both their perspectives).

If that's too big an ask, maybe you could share head canons about the same. Thanks.

Thank you so much! TDBF does have a couple of pre-FIiL chapters, but nothing really like what you’re talking about. I think it’s definitely on the table but it would probably just be published throughout TDBF instead of being something separate. It’s really just a matter of inspiration and time, so if you have any ideas of things you would want to see, feel free to let me know!

The Day After Friday (Chapter 8 of The Days Between Fridays) is live now!

If y’all catch me responding to your comments on my fic three months after the fact... please know that I’m extremely guilty about the situation and pretend it’s only been a couple days.

Once suggested to me, I could not wish for anything more.

I look forward to when you are able to publish your long Gendrya fic! That one has been rolling around in my head for awhile. I really appreciated the short but you published about Arya post-partum. I have three children now, but about two weeks in with my first, I sounded exactly like Arya. You’re exhausted, you feel completely unqualified to parent and your body is an absolute mess. I never related to an Arya moment more than that. Things do get better, but it’s hard! You have talent!

I’m excited to post it too, but I want to make sure to give it the time it deserves. Hopefully it’ll be worth the wait!

I’m so glad you enjoyed the last update! My cousin had a baby about a month ago, so I’ve been looking into stuff that helps new moms adjust and uncovered all this stuff that nobody talks about. Everyone always talks about how much childbirth hurts but nobody ever talks about those first weeks afterwards. It made me want to highlight that aspect of it, so I’m really glad that it came across as genuine! Thanks so much for the sweet message! It’s great to hear from people who find things to relate to in the things that I write. <3

An Update:

Hi all. I know it’s been a while since I was active on here and I wanted to let you know what was going on with life and writing. First of all, I’m doing well. I moved into an apartment in August and have been really happy. I have two roommates right now and things have been going pretty smoothly with them. We’ve actually formed a small friend group and it’s been great for my mental health. It’s been a night and day difference from living with my dad.

I’ll be going back to school in January to get a paralegal certificate, which should take about two years. It’s become a big source of stress for me, especially trying to figure out how to pay for it. I’m pushing through, but and tips or words of encouragement would be appreciated!

As for writing, time has been (and will continue to be) scarce, but I’m not giving up. I’ve got two long-form fics on my docket: Be My Safety, the sequel to BMSoG, and the Sansa-centric companion to FIiL, which is heavily inspired by Legally Blonde. I’m working on these bit by bit, but don’t have firm publication dates for either one. I’m also working on a medium length one-shot that belongs to the FIiL universe called “Send Me the Moon.” I’ll leave that one more mysterious for now.

In the meantime, expect my most frequent updates to be new chapters of A Drizzle of Drabbles and The Days Between Fridays. These are the easiest for me to keep putting out because each chapter is its own story and I don’t feel pressured to make them a certain length. If neither of these are your cup of tea, that’s fine, just know that it’ll be a while before I’m back to publishing longer, multi-chapter fics.

The Days Between Fridays: Chapter 6, Silent Night

Hi, it’s me. Still here even though I’ve been radio silent. Enjoy this little update. Prompt from @mariah-on-fire.

Me: I haven’t been on tumblr in a hot minute. Why did I stop using it so much?

Me: *gets launched over to the App Store to download grub hub for the 12th time in as many minutes*

Me: now I remember!

All of these are red flags of a narcissistic parent. I think we all knew that Trump was a narc by now, but maybe people haven’t factored that into how it affects his family life. I especially want to point out the Tiffany vs Ivanka part.

First things first: narcs don’t need love, they need suply from the people around them. Whoever gets them the most narcissistic suply is the golden child (ivanka) and that child in particular is pitted against the scapegoat child (Tiffany). The golden child can do no wrong. The scapegoat is the source of the entire family’s problems.

Notice how Ivanka agrees with everything her father says? Golden child behavior. She’s flooding him with narcissistic supply by affirming his feeling that Tiffany is inferior. When you understand that, it’s easy to see how Tiffany was dragged down into their bullshit despite previously being low contact.

That’s the thing about being the child of a narcissist. No matter how far away you get, how long you go without contact, how successful you are despite them, a part of you will always wish for what the golden child has, even just for a moment.

tiffany trump really bums me out. like not necessarily in an empathetic, poor-tiffany way, just like, man, i can’t imagine what it would be like to have that many opportunities and privileges and know down to your CORE that your deadbeat grifter dad doesn’t give a shit about you (and also apparently refuses to be photographed with you because he thinks you’re ugly?), and still just be like, “nope, i’m not gonna walk away from this, i’m not gonna do the dignity thing or the principle thing, i’m just gonna stick it out and maybe one day i’ll get the kiss from daddy.” like, when you really think about that whole family, they are all SO fucked up, but tiffany’s the only one where it’s like… everything you read about her makes you go, oof magoof, you really tried to make noises about being a liberal lawyer of some kind but nobody’s gonna touch you with a 12 foot pole after january, you’re just stuck in the crumbling bluth model home that is the trump organization. hope it was worth it girl
