Hahahahaha, I remember this! And still love it!
engagement rings ranked by their ability to break someone’s nose
a pretty standard arrangement for engagement rings. a raised stone is better than nothing. 3/10
a lovely, simple, elegant wedding band. a classic anybody would be pleased to get married with. useless in a fight. 0/10
huge. tacky. kinda pretty tho. but look at that raised diamond in the center. you could easily break someone’s tooth with this. 7/10
also huge and tacky. at first glance you’d think the rounded edge might not cause much damage but look at how those rows of diamonds are raised in the second view. you could really rip up someone’s face. 9/10
this one is almost elegant. no sharp edges, but it’s solidly built. you would cause more damage with the ring on than off, which is a solid basis for choosing an engagement ring. 5/10
a lovely design, i enjoy open filigree. however im not sure how said filigree would stand up to the impact of being slammed into someone’s face. 2/10
the twisting design is pretty, but im not entirely sure that socking someone in the jaw wouldnt break off those stones. it looks somewhat reinforced but do you really want to leave the Punching Power of your engagement ring up to chance? i wouldnt. two raised stones tho. 6/10, pending experimentation
HAHAHAHA holy shit. thats Five raised stones, with reinforced prongs, for maximum damage at any angle. i highly recommend this ring both for its sapphire centerpiece and its capacity for causing pain. 10/10
there’s not even a stone, its just gold which aint exactly the hardest metal in the world. just fucking stay home if you’re not going to take this seriously.

Hey, folks! It’s been a long time. Life has been incredibly busy, and I wasn’t writing, so it was kind of hard for me to be on here.
However, I’m absolutely thrilled to say a CaptainCanary story recently clicked for me again. I hope to start posting “Natural Disasters” within a week or so. :)
Hope everyone’s doing well. It’s been a long few years. <3

I’m not on Tumblr much any more. (Though I keep meaning to get back to it!) But this absolutely made my day. And it was much needed. Thank you so much!
I really need to get back to writing... ;) This should help. <3
24. who is your favorite author? (can be fanfic author or a non fanfic author)
My favorite author is of course a fic author! @stillthewordgirl she goes by "Jael" over on AO3 and I HIGHLY recommend her work. I've read all her stories and the DEPTH of them is incredible!

If anyone wants to join me in flooding (OK, a small-ish flood, probably) AO3 with CC fic sometimes this week in her honor, let me know.
I had so many stories in progress that she’d requested. Damn it.
This sucks, and I wish I wasn’t returning to Tumblr just to make this post.
A lot of people in the CaptainCanary Legends fandom will know SylvanHeather. She wasn’t a writer, but she was an awesome fan and beta. We chatted a lot about fandom and life in general.
This week, we lost her to COVID-19.
Please, raise a glass and say a toast to her tonight. And please, even more…get vaccinated if you can.

Current status is listening to an ‘80s party mix while cooking dinner...and crying my eyes out because I can now longer talk about ‘80s music with a friend.

Last Line Game
WIP Last Line Game
Rules: post the last line you wrote (from any wip) and tag the same number of people as there are words.
Tagged by a few people, including @ranger-of-estel! I’m not on Tumblr much these days, but this caught me at the right time. :)
And sure enough, there was Leonard, leaning in her doorway and waving a deck of cards, though looking a little more diffident than usual.
That’s a lot of words to tag people. So just do it if you want!

Um...
Sorry, I vanished again. (*hangs head, feels shame*)
So, has anyone else read “Gideon the Ninth”? I just did a reread prepping for “Harrow the Ninth” and I have THEORIES.

Also, the message they sent with past-Kendra (I can’t even remember her name) and the “you can never find love if it’s not with Carter-whatshisname” was just freakin’ toxic. Carter was an asshole. And destiny is bullshit. Hell, they had Snart *die* to prove that. And for what?
Been showing my son the first season of Legends. We’re on “The Magnificent Eight.”
It still bothers me just how many interesting threads the show abandoned. Stein’s mentions of his past and his father and the similarity to Snart. Mick’s time as Chronos. (SO much material there.) The notion of times in history where the Time Masters can’t see. Snart the sharpshooter. (Hot DAMN.) Sara’s battle back from blood lust. SO MUCH.
Lazy writing. Lots of fic potential, though, if I can get back there.
(Though my son is already thinking about it. He’s 12, though, so don’t expect much in the way of shipping. At this juncture he’s still deciding where he stands on that.)

Well...I’m back on Tumblr. Sorry I’ve been gone so long! The stress and chaos of the past six months really messed with me and my writing muse.
Trying to get back into it. And I’m also hoping to start a book review blog here, because reading has kept me going. <3
I really hope you’re all doing well.

It doesn’t have to be the best thing you’ve ever written to be somebody else’s favorite story

Hi, Tumblr. It’s been a while. Between life and work and family and illness and...yeah, life....I haven’t been writing much or paying much attention to fandom.
With any luck, I’m back. At least I’ll try!
