Honestly if I was told I needed to get recommendation letters to get into college after saving the world twice I'd simply not go to college what the hell

i still think a lot about how technically, it's implied Anubis and Walt started dating each other before they asked out Sadie, and if Sadie had said she wasn't interested they would have gone "Entirely fair have a nice day" and proceed to just go continue to date each other.

Cause like, that was the entire thing. They decided that themselves. That things would work best if they were together (as in both physically sharing a body and also relationship-wise). The "asking Sadie about it" part was secondary. If she had said no, they would have stayed together, because among other things Walt would kind of die if they didn't. Walt and Anubis are technically the first gay couple in the Riordanverse. AND they're in a polyamorous relationship with Sadie. Why does no one talk about them ever.

GMM'S MEN KISSING MEN PODIUM - BRONZE MEDAL KHAOTUNG THANAWAT

Podd Suphakorn, Tonhon Chonlatee (2020) 55:15 Never Too Late (2021) removed from the set👍 First Kanaphan, The Eclipse & Only Friends (2022, 2023) Book Kasidet, Only Friends (2023) Mond Tanutchai, Only Friends (2023)

(set only possible because of all the data gathered by @ranchthoughts who made a whole gmm kissing multiverse post)

so i completed my first ever fan binding, everything from start to finish - barring writing the fic myself - and i wanted to share the results!!

the fic is the certain things we lack by @deanpendragon on ao3 (it’s an incredible fic, if you haven’t read it already, you really really really should!!)

if anyone wants to bind their own copy using the typeset i made, i’ve put a fully formatted and print-ready pdf along with some instructions for how to go about fan binding (and links to people who can explain the process better than i can) on my google drive!

While i work I've been listening to an LP of the Telltale Walking Dead Games (the ones with clementine, I do not care about the others lmao). Ages ago when I played these I was well aware/amused that part of season 2 takes place in Parker's Crossroads/Parker's Run because I grew up right next to it and the detail stood out to me. But I never caught the line of "We'll head to parker's run. It's just up the road from here" until just right now. So I had a sort of "wait, where the fuck are they supposed to be right now?" (search)

ARE YOU SHITTING ME LMAO So by process of elimination, since it's the only city with anything even remotely resembling a large home supply store, that would mean they're in my literal hometown. My tiny hometown in the middle of nowhere that's never in anything that barely anyone knows of. How in the fuck lmao

i struggle a lot with deviating from the original design when doing fanart because i fear the character won't be recognisable anymore if i dare change the colours here and there

i think its a damn shame since i see all the cool spins on character designs and think "man, i could do that"

so here's my two little thinkin pieces on me, yknow, doing that, with alastor :)

i might actually make the final one into like... a thing??? but don't count on it, my attention span is abysmal.

All the tour groups in Springfield should be very proud of me for how well I refrained from sharing all my fascinating Lincoln facts.

I made a book sleeve:) it's sized for an average paperback - I could probably fit 2 average books or 1 thicker book comfortably in it

eegggghhhhhhhhhhhhh

I started reading "Big Bad" and it's really great so far.

I love how the author has somewhat made it from the villains' PoV, afraid of the Big Bad Slayer come to destroy their world... and you almost feel bad for them and root for them. Almost.

That's definitely no easy feat and takes true talent. (It probably helps that Anya is one of the main main characters, and she of course is more gray than anything else.)

But the setup of the plot is great, and I'm curious to see where it goes and have my suspicions. The characters are wonderful so far. I'm definitely having fun in this crazy, backwards world.

Also, Anya and Angelus seem to like each other in this universe (moreso Anya liking Angelus thus far), which is definitely interesting. But I could definitely kind of see it in a universe like this (hell, Anya did check Angel out in the series proper)... But it's also so sad, of course, since they can't have fuzzy feelings for their actual soulmates in this world. Unless the ending goes the way I think it's going to.

Though I guess we do get some Angelus flirting with Buffy in a malicious way (I've seen it in reviews for the book), that in one way you would kind of expect of him/them, but then also not because part of that in S2 when he turned evil was because of their previous relationship that they don't have here. But I'm not there yet. We'll see how it's handled when I get to it.

I guess Darla left Angelus for The Master in this universe. ROFL.

Edit: Also, Spike is a bartender at the Bronze--that's become a vampire bar in this universe--which I love, because ever since I read a Buffyverse AU set in the 20s where Spike ran a speakeasy, this kind of thing has just made so much sense to me. And in this book, Dru sings there every night and Angelus owns the Bronze. LOL

Edit: I also love that I feel that this book, at least somewhat, has arguably gone to a darker place than "In Every Generation" (though I love that series!) and the Boom stuff, imo. Because after having a conversation with @bisexualblckcanary, I started to worry that now that Disney owns Buffy, it might be starting to lose some of its classic horror in its newest iterations... for obvious reasons. But at least this book shows that Disney is willing to let them play every now and then, perhaps.

Someone tell me why you get an appointment with the doctor at a apecific time and still have to wait 4 hourse to get in (2 hours wait, then they tell you to go home for an hour cause they need to go on their lunch break) and another hour of waiting. Why do you tempt me with a clear set time and then let people without appointments and no horrible ailments walk in first before everyone else?
