Haven’t really written anything new and I’m still dipping my toes back in here, but I have more dead darlings from Strictly Professional, so why not share? It’s truly a shame I couldn’t make a place for some of these lines, and I doubt they’ll be of use in the future. Anyway, it’s fun to let these live on their own, and I will likely do this for other fics in the future.
After finishing the first draft, I thought things were going to be pretty smooth sailing on the edit. And then I got to Baz’s first POV of Day 2 and realized it was a mess. There was almost no transition from Baz panicking to Baz flirting. I worked on that scene for three days to get it where it needed to be, and some lines I loved simply had to go.
I also realized that I needed to structure chapters 1 and 2 as mirrors, with their POVs in opposite order. This led to a couple of scenes having to be rewritten from the other perspective, and that meant some internal narration had to be removed.
Did you need that context? Probably not, but I find process interesting, so I’m sharing a little peek into mine for those who like it.
1. Pulled from Day 2 (Baz POV)
“I'd do it all again. I would right now, too, if you asked me. I'd have you right here on this table, if that's what you wanted, bugger the consequences. Or other things."
I have to throw a hand over my mouth to avoid the howl of surprise that tries to burst out of it.
He simply smiles innocently and takes a sip of his own water. "Offer's…on the table," he murmurs, failing to suppress his smile.
2. Pulled from Day 1 (Baz POV)
That should frighten me. I don't like feeling as though I don't have control over my own body. But I can't stay in my head long enough to muster the proper shame, self-loathing, and regret that would ordinarily be plaguing me like the Furies by now.
3. Pulled from Day 3 (POV change)
I missed this, having this—these quiet morning intimacies, whispers and secrets shared over pillows, the presence and weight of another body in bed with mine—even more than I missed having sex.
4. Pulled from Day 3 (POV change)
He draws his hand back and crawls across the expanse of bed to place a kiss on the corner of my mouth, where his thumb had been stroking earlier. He's still smiling; Salisbury must be the world's leading expert on kissing while smiling.
5. Pulled from Day 2 (Simon POV)
"I don’t mean to presume. I know that this is just, you know, this. What happens at the work conference, stays at the work conference, right?"
I know my attempt at humour was pathetic at best, but someone had to try to lighten the mood.
It doesn't work. If anything, it makes Baz look a bit stricken. It was probably a bad idea to bring up the conference right now. (It was definitely a bad idea.) The very last thing Baz needs is to be reminded of all the ways our little tryst is a walking, talking ethics violation.
"Well, I would never presume, either," he says. "I'm fairly certain it would be a fireable offence if I did."
6. Pulled from Day 2 (Simon POV)
"Don't change the subject," he says.
"What subject were we on?" I ask.
"Your impeccable pectorals."
"Oh! So that's why you like my chest."
"It's a leading contender. And I meant what I said. You do look powerful. Strong. Sturdy."
He adds quietly, "some of us could use sturdy."

i spent 40 minutes looking for a source so I could write one (1) sentence :') this project is going great
#i would rather do that tho then get points off/look dumb for not citing it#plus its important#its just annoying that almost all of the K eng sub videos dont have transcripts#so i cant ctrl+f#i have to skip through them#the other annoying part tho is i wanted to actually start doing the write up#and now i cant because that was my last 40 minutes before i had to go do something#so now i have to go do stuff#and i probably wont come back to this until tomorrow or sunday ;-;

so uh. that 2.2 Special Program, huh
#hsr#honkai star rail#hsr 2.2#hsr spoilers#hsr leaks#the body of this post reads as far less enthusiastic than i really am#i just don’t know how to casually return from my latest 2 week hiatus only to gush abt a game i’ve hardly blogged abt before#but i’m not making a whole ass sideblog for it like i did for Genshin. nah y’all r gonna bear witness to my fixation with this one#so anyways don’t mind me. vibrating into another dimension with anticipation for the next 11 days#it’s insane man. a year ago i Never ever woulda thought i’d be so invested in this game. and it took Months for the game to really grab me#but i’m v glad i kept coming back even when i was struggling to really get into it. like i just had this feeling that if i stuck around and#gave the game a chance to really like. come into its stride. i just always felt like there was Something there and i just hadn’t found it#and holy shit i finally found it in Penacony. the devs really truly outdid themselves with this region and these characters and this story#not to discount everything that’s happened prior. like i was genuinely Liking it all before now but i wasn’t Loving it y’know#but that may be more a ‘me having to fight tooth n’ nail to force myself to consume new media’ thing than it is a matter of the actual game#anyways i came here to talk abt the program! bc since i’m not filming my HSR stuff i’m gonna be insufferable abt it on Tumblr instead ! :)#and i’m probably not filming any more Genshin stuff. or anything else at all for that matter but let’s not talk abt that dead dream#pun not intended lmao. Anyways let’s return to the subject at hand while there’s still room left in these tags shall we#i’m so fucking glad they had Aventurine on this program man. especially since he’s leaked to only have 18 lines in 2.2… it was nice to see-#-him here at least 🥹 i’ll take what i can get. his unenthusiastic little bird noises at the beginning.. him being reluctant to come out..#the way one of the first things to come out of his mouth was ‘y’know DR RATIO once told me…’ like boy we get it ur in love with him 🙄 (/J!)#i love how they can’t go on these programs w/o talking abt each other it’s adorable. AND THE WAY HE WAS THE ONE TO EXPLAIN BOOTHILL’S KIT!?#they can’t just fuel my crackship like this… god and his whole ‘muddle-fudger.. son-of-a-nice-lady?’ thing had me wheezing#Aven mocking Boothill’s inability to curse was not on my special program bingo card but fuck i’m here for it#and Robin being all curious abt him was so cute.. ‘who /is/ he? … does he order milk at the bar?’ i’m crying she’s so sweet#also the trailer was fucking insane. which feels redundant as hell bc all of HoYo’s version trailers go hard but like. still. wow.#that millisecond long shot of Boothill surveying the skyline is so fucking good. also what the fuck is Jing Yuan doing here!!#not complaining at all tho. we’ve got JY & DH(IL?). Argenti(?). Boothill. Sunday. Aven. all my men r here and i am eating so fucking good#Seven.txt#viddy game stuff

Mexican restaurant gave me the wrong textured guacamole. On my BIRFDAY.
#sillyposting#I specified I wanted the smooth kind like twice 😭#I’m still eating it tho bc I didn’t want to make a big deal out of it#I’m coming back here Sunday for a birthday dinner so they can make it up to me then /j#also the girl at the counter asked me if I still worked at the school??#I was so stunned because I don’t remember who she is#I said no but I’m still like??? I should have asked her#I wonder if she’s related to the little Mexican boy that was in our class last year or something and just remembered my face#I’m so tempted to call them and ask 😂#anyway

#it’s why it took me so long to start akdhfkfjf#I’m just not used to writing slow burn!!!!#or enemies to lovers!!! lol#especially since enemies to lovers toes a very thin line#of this being too fast and all at once after a brief makeup#OR they’re too mean in the beginning and it’s like why do u have any attraction to that person at all.#so I’m trying to find the line of hesitant friendship somewhere along the line of that!!!!#even tho I’m only on chap three right now AKDHDKFJFJF#IM SO USED TO RUSHING THIS FEELS SO WEIRD!!!!!!#I’m ready for them to fugg#bc fugg is all I know I fear#but it’s coming along very well and I’m enjoying the writing process so much!!!#only downside is my wrist and back hurting#but trust and believe I’ll be back writing tomorrow ☝🏼#I’m enjoying this so much it’s so cathartic#I think I’m gonna write about five chapters first before I publish it and then write the rest as I go#I just know I can fall behind bc of school and depression but I’m really liking this so far!!!#also think I might upload on Monday’s or Thursdays??? idk#bc I do school tues/wed and I don’t typically get on my computer on sundays#and I usually go to bed either really late or really early Fridays LOL idk#I’m rambling soooo much I’m just so excited about this!!!

SO fucked up that when u study languages they also make u study architecture history and ant biology and economy and european politics hierarchy so by the end of the semester i still cant tie a proper sentence in any language but sure i can differentiate the neo gothic style from rococo or tell you what a bull market is
#shut up dave#im tired im tired im tired i dont care abt any of this#i mean i do enjoy architecture and art periods. i dont want to be required to know all of them#i have an exam tomorrow and one on sunday and one on wednesday and one on next saturday#then on monday and tuesday and the following saturday and monday too#and frankly. im only confident i can pass 3 maybe 4 of them#for the rest??? idk ill need to study and im very bad at that#but hey we got the grades back from the first exam!! the one i took last week and i got a 9 yippeee#that is out of 10#it was in german interpreting n like. genuinely. im good enough at consecutive interpreting that i dont think theres a way 4 me to fail#like even if i mess it up i cant do THAT bad#i had to do it 4 english today and i think i fucked up sooo big it was so embarrassing. but then we got to the critique of my performance#and. it was all the usual nitpicks? like few word choices#the occasional discordance with adjectival conjugation. few points that 'havent clearly come across'#in my mind i had missed like a whole half of the speech but apparently it was p good still#now the problem is. same prof who teaches that subject also teaches specialized languages#and im. very bad at that one for simple reason that i have not processed any information all year#um maybe next time dont make your class about the stock market? idk just a suggestion. i dont care for wallstreet or whatever.#tho to b fair i didnt care for the european parliament last year either so ig u just cant win me on those terms#but if we get to specializing on the judiciary field i think i wouldnt be able to keep ignoring it. because of the circumstances#i have two more shirt designs to finish before the month ends but as u can see school wants me dead at the same time#one of said designs is a full 7 character thing :/#and the other. well ive already made 3 thumbnails for it and nothing rly clicks the way i want it to

why did you dislike the dune movie
to me the whole movie just felt like a set up for the second one, it didn't have enough plot to fill the time, i was terribly bored watching it.
in my opinion each movie in a series should be able to stand alone as a movie with a beginning a middle and an end, this was just beginning and then some middle at the end (apparently, my friend, who i watched it with, said that things happened there but i can't remember them for the life of me)
i'll be watching the second one with her on sunday though and i'm actually quite hopeful as everyone i've spoken to who's seen it really likes it + the ratings of it are incredibly good AND since this movie has been set up very sufficiently i'm expecting plot! so if that's the case we're good
#suck-my-figurative-dick#thank u for asking!!#if i come back as a superfan on sunday i'll stand by my word on the first one. hoping for it!#it has to be good that many people can't be wrong#bc i'm sure the original story is good (haven't read it tho) and so are the visuals of the last movie + great cast so that combined#should be a success#sorry for the long answer btw!#answered

I wish I knew ppl irl who had experience of the same issues I have so I could talk to them abt it and they could empathise and maybe give some advice in a safe + non judgemental space when I'm particularly struggling again bc it comes + goes. but no I can't bring up half this crap even just as a topic completely unrelated to myself without ppl demonstrating theyre incapable of understanding/compassion + hold opinions that make them unsafe for me to talk to. great.
#tbf tho even if i did know ppl like that id still struggle to trust them or talk to them either way its just a Difficult thing#its okay tho im managing alright. if it comes to worst i mean its not even really that bad at the end of the day#just a lot of work that i then have to do alone to pick myself back up again. ah well.#who give a shit#ive done my laundry and food shop so i have the rest of my sunday afternoon free but i dont even want to do anything#nothing is particularly enjoyable rn. its a shame that i only get free time like this once a week but im often too depressed to use it#maybe ill just listen to some music for now and ill feel like picking up a game or smth later. ill work out in a couple hours at least#whatever. letting it wash over and past me#looking forward to going to work tomorrow bc at least i dont have to think abt anything i just do my little assays and trials#and then i get home and eat and im too tired to do anything but go to sleep. genuinely the ideal life#.diaries#maaan.
