quick doodle inspired by ao3 user loyal_backstabber's fic "Late Night To Early Morning" as a minor mood lifter (im fine now)
idk if they have a tumblr account i dont think they do which is kinda sad :( /lh
funnily enough mc's minor described appearance is pretty similar to my own (short dyed hair, but theyre described as blue)
inspired by i think about chapter 56-57?
nottttt really my best but its just a fast doodle :) i didnt use any reference for mc's outfit i just did it off the top of my head so it isnt the actual canon outfit in the fic 😭🙏

god i am having such a conundrum right now i'm quitting my shitty job and trying to decide how best to do it. do i
1) last day this friday. i have an interview thurs and am pretty confident in a 2nd interview next week, so quitting now would free up time to prep for interview and hopefully recoup some sanity before starting a new job. con is that i have one fewer paycheck before may rent is due so i'll have to start using my savings sooner if i end up being unemployed for more than a month
2) last day on the 21st. i have to fuck around with trying to get time off for interviews and probably get written up for attendance, shitty job remains a massive psychic and physical drain that prevents me from job hunting and i would risk having to jump straight into new job without a breather. overall worse for charlie, but i would have a fat paycheck to pay may rent with which would buy me a few more weeks of financial security if it takes longer than anticipated to find a new job.
3) some secret third thing.

like it's honestly killing me how i have to ruin my hands to make money to survive, which means I'm decreasing my ability to make art. i'm selling it. also im in chronic pain. Like im not even financially stable i still live with my family and this is the most i can do and it's wrecking my body.

Friendship cannot mean 'I have constant access to you 24/7', all right? It just can't.
I get being lonely. It sucks. But at some point you need to learn to manage that from time to time. That's part of being a grown up.
There will be times when your friends will be totally down to hang and chat for a long time, and times when they won't, and THAT'S. FINE. You cannot expect constant entertainment from someone like they aren't a real human being with their own worries, and bills, and responsibilities and- sometimes- EVEN A NEED FOR DOWNTIME THAT DOESN'T INVOLVE BEING SOCIAL. The fact that they are not always ready or willing to hang out and text for hours is not an attack on you, and behaving like it is is completely unacceptable.
Healthy friendship involves boundaries, and one of those boundaries is letting your friends have space. If you cannot respect that, then you might need to take some time and ask yourself if you're really all that good a friend.

BruceNat Fanfic Roadmap/Updates
I was debating whether to post one of these, then saw @gammacousin do so and decided to follow in their footsteps.
A gigantic thank you to everyone who interacted with my return post, who sent messages, who showed some love to Cracks Filled With Gold and/or old fics. It's really encouraging, and I'm excited to be sharing writing for BruceNat again.
To Be Posted:
Chapter 3/3 of Cracks Filled With Gold
Incubator (AKA Awaiting Edits):
A BruceNat nap drabble
AU BruceNat proposal + death drabble (prompt)
To Be Written:
Gamma radiation side effect fic (old prompt, smut)
Natasha is actually a little self-conscious about her scars (old prompt, smut)
OG6 Avengers organizing a reconciliation for BruceNat (old prompt)
Laura + Nat chat about Natasha's blossoming relationship with Bruce (old prompt)
...The "to be written" queue is quite a bit longer than that, but those are just the first up.
A note on "incubating" fics: I always let drafts sit for at least 2+ weeks before returning my eyes to them. Currently, I'm my only editor, and I find this time away from my own writing helps immensely with the editing process I also come back to my drafts hating them less, because I naturally hate all my writing when I first put it to paper.
A note regarding the recent troll on FF: I doubt anyone's seen this, but just wanted to assure that I've seen this person leaving largely incomprehensible troll reviews on several of my works posted to FF. It's fine (I think it's funny, and I'm also flattered, to be frank). Fics are still coming, this hasn't discouraged me in the slightest. :)
