I used to think that going it alone made me stronger. But that's not true. No, real strength comes from accepting that you're weak and that it's okay to ask for help.

WIP Intro
"Reborn is the worst, huh?" he whispers conspiratory-like. "Always thinks he's so smart, but he can't even recognize the great Lambo-san even if he was to shoot him in the face." Lambo says nothing, and Tsuna's heart clenches. "Mama loves you," he says, and it's a relief he can say it with absolute certainty, a small mercy. Was life-saving too on those days when Tsuna was hurting so badly, wishing he could just stop breathing so everyone would finally be happy with him for once. "But she's not like you, or Reborn, or—or I-Pin-chan. You know that, right? That's why sometimes it's hard for her to talk with you."
It takes a moment, but then Lambo finds his voice again. "Lambo-san loves Tsuna-nii."

Somehow, even though I haven't watched in years - and am 0% tempted to tonight - I've still got this tiny sliver of anxiety about the ending of The Blacklist. Is that crazy? It's like I know they can't possibly wrap up the story in a way I'll be happy or satisfied with (and after the 8th season I mostly gave up caring about what happens in "canon")...and yet I'm sure when I hear about what happened in the finale it's going to feel like one last, poorly written gut punch.
How are you feeling about tonight?
Hiya, anon ❤️ Ugh, can I just say that you summed up my tangle of feelings absolutely perfectly? 🥺 More specifically, no, that is not crazy at all. I am in the same place as you with not caring about any of it anymore - not since 8.22 ripped my fucking heart out - & I literally can't think of anything I'd like to do less than watch the series finale. But even in the years since 8.22, there was still that awareness that the show was still out there somewhere, even if I only heard drips & drabs, & I scoffed at it all, & I didn't give a tiny rat's ass what happened. And while that remains true, the fact that it's OFFICIALLY ending (despite the fact that it ended for us two years ago) is... a little sobering. For me, I think it's a reminder of the pain & grief of The Terrible Awful™️ 😓
Also, yes, anon, I completely understand the sliver of anxiety & dread... I felt the same thing when I heard that they were finally blessedly cancelled & again when I realized the last ep was coming up... I can only speak for myself, but I think it's bc I still care at least a little about Red &, deep down, I still want a happy ending for him, even though I fully believe he can't have one without Liz. But I have zero faith in TPTB & I'm sure they will make it a nebulous, "cool" ending with no real answers, like always, or they'll confirm godforsaken R*darina, or they'll just kill off Red because they're incapable of writing anything else. And I'm sure every other aspect of it will be disappointing, like Ressler being the hero or something (LMFAO) & it will be awful all around. I have no other expectations & I suppose I have to either accept it and/or ignore whatever happens AND/OR consider it all a crap AU & Lizzington as our canon. But the way you describe it, "one last, poorly written gut punch", perfectly describes how I feel. I tell myself that none of it matters anymore - it's not like we're getting a Lizzington ending lolz - but I think I'm just afraid of being hurt again bc, for all my posturing, I know TPTB still have the power to do that, simply bc I still care just a tiny bit. Despite all the heartbreak I've already felt... a little remains of the show, the characters, & my heart for them to destroy 💔
Idk if that made any sense at all, anon, but I hope I communicated at least 3 things: 1) you're not alone in the way you feel, 2) the ending will probably hurt & ache & betray in just the way we're afraid of, & 3) we simply have to deal with the residual hurt, know that TPTB failed us & it's not our fault, &... cherish what we had by holding our Lizzington AU close to our hearts & keeping them alive through fanfic... at least, that's what I plan on doing. So, feel free to drop another ask if you want to talk more, anon, I would certainly love to commiserate & work through our feelings together tbh, & btw I'm very flattered you came to my ask box with this & wanted to know how I feel, thank you for being so sweet. In the meantime, hang in there, anon, you're definitely not alone, & much love to you, my friend ❤️

Man I feel so bad for newjeans cause after observing their career for what? Two years since they debuted? I came to the general conclusion that min heejin was one of the most insufferable people in kpop but seemed to at least have that under control enough to do right by the girls for the time being (even if the reasoning was that she saw them as an extension of her own genius rather than caring about them as people) but no turns out like from the minute they blew up she was planning to try fist fight the parent company they’re under like come on 😭

question for you, but also just krakenblr in general: favorite aspects/headcanons of the goalie nesting trope? I've been Researching (reading a very wide variety of fic to see what the general interpretation is) and the conclusion I'm coming to is that it really varies 😂
HI I AM SORRY FOR THE DELAY it has not been a good few weeks for health and ability to think clearly BUT ABOUT GOALIE NESTING:
Honestly, I think most people thinking about and writing about goalie nesting are making it up as we go! The idea that goalies can go feral and require a Safe Place and maybe it's their net or maybe it's a bed is a really fun one for anyone who loves goalies, because there are a few things that are universal among goalies:
Pucks do not belong in the net.
The crease is MINE, GTFO NOW.
If I'm left out to dry I reserve the right to go after the defensemen with a knife.
Whatever went wrong, everyone is going to blame me.
After a good game, I deserve praise, headbonks, and hugs.
BUT ALSO there is such a huge amount of protectiveness toward goalies that, between that and the headbonks, it seems like they need extra special caretaking! (You'll hear a lot of Canadian hockey players saying that they've been told ever since they can remember that you never, ever, EVER let someone run your goalie, and I don't like much about the TBL, but that one time when someone ran at Vasilevskiy and all five skaters on the ice immediately dropped their gloves and tackled the other team did win my respect.)
There are a few headcanons for goalie nesting that seem to be fairly universal, such as goalies growling or chirping when they're feral, often needing their teams' jerseys, and skaters being a little bit terrified of them. That's about it as far as I can tell, and there's so much less goalie nesting fic than I'd like!
For the Kraken, I've enjoyed the notion that it was harder for them to start nesting because of being an expansion team, so it was hard for everyone to get used to each other. I also love the idea that since Joey Daccord comes from a family tradition of goaltending, he might have started nesting at 12, gathering up his stuffed animals and guarding them with a mini goalie stick in his room. (Aww!) And given what Grubauer does when someone takes too many liberties in his crease, I imagine he's a really territorial goalie. 😂 But I would love to hear more ideas about goalie nesting!

@avocado-writing’s tav + Charlie enjoying some birthday soup bc it’s their birthday today and mine is in 5 days so!! Soup!! (My actual birthday soup recipe is under the cut)
Tumblr media
Birthday soup
Don’t forget to get silly w it. That’s like, required. It’s your BIRTHDAY (or someone else’s birthday) you deserve to get silly.
I stole this from my mom btw, also make sure you know the difference between a herb and a spice.
Oh yeah also it includes soup dumplings.
Kitchen items:
Big pot w a lid
Cutting board
Knife
Ingredients:
2 tbls Butter
1pkg Stew beef (or chicken hearts, that’s the original ingredient I just don’t like em)
2 medium onions, one diced, one quartered (keep separate)
1 whole head of garlic, minced (jarlic works very well here)
3 cups of stock (beef if you use beef, veggie if you use chicken, do not use chicken stock it fucks up the taste)
3 medium carrots, chopped
2 medium potatos, chopped
1 celery stick, chopped
1/4 head of cabbage, chopped (optional, I just like cabbage an unreasonable amount)
1 whole package of frozen spinach, defrosted (do this in a bowl this shit is WET also keep the water)
Can of green beans (you could probably use fresh, I don’t like fresh tho so, idk)
Can of diced tomatoes
Rosemary
Thyme
Fennel
Mustard seed
Celery seed
Sprinkle of Cloves (ground)
Sprinkle of Nutmeg
5% Vinegar or lemon juice (or your favourite other edible acid, tomato juice would in theory work, lime juice is mid.)
Salt + pepper
1 tbls Paprika
Steps:
Butter in that pot, medium
Spices, add em, leave ‘em until they smell good, it won’t be long.
Beef and a splash of your acid in that pot, cook until 1/4 done
Carrot and celery in that pot, get em hot but don’t cook em too long.
Diced onion, spinach, and paprika + salt n pepper to taste in that pot, med-low
Stir, cover, leave it alone for 5ish minutes
Uncover, add garlic to that pot, cook until it smells like garlic
Stock + the canned bean and frozen spinach water, add it.
Canned tomato, add it.
Potato, add it.
Cabbage, add it.
All them herbs, add em to taste (I use roughly a tablespoon each of em dried, but I like my shit strong.)
Bring it to boil on high
Let that bitch simmer, you may need to periodically add water if he’s goin too hard. (START MAKING THOSE SOUP DUMPLINGS RN IF YOURE DOING THAT)
When the potato is 1/2 done that quartered onion (and the dumplings)
Finish the potato.
Bam. Soup. I like it more cold, but it is intended to be eaten hot.
Soup dumplings
I stole this from my roommate and add em to most soups tbh
Kitchen items:
Bowl,
Wood spoon,
Your Hands,
You could probably do this in a stand mixer but I don’t have one of those so, you’re on your own man.
Ingredients:
2 cups Flour
Water, hot as you can handle touching, volume required varies,
Salt
Pepper
Onion powder
Garlic powder
Whatever fresh herbs you like (dried don’t work here unless they’re ground absolutely tiny)
1 tbls of your favourite liquid fat (I use olive oil, canola and sunflower also work for sure)
Steps:
Flour, into the bowl
Seasonings, into the bowl
Mix well.
Add the fat
Slowly add water, mixing often until you get a slightly sticky ball.
Knead for a bit, I don’t really know how to describe the texture bc I’ve been making bread since I was a kid (and this is just a yeastless bread dough) but its finished when it stops really sticking to your hands (it’ll be tacky, not sticky)
Divide into 1 inch balls
Drop into the soup roughly 30 minutes before it’s finished.
Serve in the soup
Congrats, soup balls.

LISTEN UP GOTHS!!!!!!
i just found out like the most important hair dye hack like ever!!! (idk maybe someone has done this b4 but im telling you abt it!!)
purple shampoo, its expensive, not easily accessible for poor goths or goths on a budget.
im dying my hair rn and i needed some purple shampoo but i couldnt run to the store and even if i could theres no way in hell that i can afford a $45 dollar bottle of shampoo. what did i have? blue temporary hair dye. mix it in with a cheap shampoo and baby youve got a blue/purple toned shampoo that works almost just as well as the real thing!!
important notes: YOU HAVE TO USE A TEMPORARY DYE!!! a real permanent dye with work a liiitle too well. unless thats just the look ur going for (plus temporary dye is cheaper, got mine for abt $5)
you have to get just the right dye to shampoo ratio, id say i used abt 1/4 tsp of blue dye to 1-2 tbl of shampoo? i kinda winged it so id say trust ur instincts,, unlesss ur instincts are bad then maybe try to measure
dont leave it in too long! i left mine in for abt 30 mins and that was plenty of time. if you wanna play it safe then use less dye and leave it in longer, or add more dye to sped up the process
for best results i toned my hair before hand with crushed vitamin C tablets and apple cider vinegar, hypothetically it should work without doing this, but i wanted to make sure that it wasnt brassy
it came out very very well considering it was a 1 am experiment

WIP Intro
"Oh, Tsuna." His voice's syrupy sweet, almost cajoling. "This, I did not teach you. No one taught it to you. Are you at peace with the fact it's all you? That it's all coming from you?"
That's funny.
What else is he supposed to be but at peace with it?

Sourdough discard biscuits
I frankensteined this from a bunch of recipes so I have to write it down because it worked better than last time. These are still flatter than I'd like so next time I might try mixing the sourdough discard with the flour, sugar and butter and letting that rise before adding the baking powder/soda and salt. But the texture was delicate if not actually flaky and it was a nice use of the discard.
Start by feeding your starter so you have 285 g + however much you want to save in your fridge. I usually keep about 80g so I fed mine half water and half whole-wheat/white flour mix (50-50) by weight to add up to about 365g.
Put your fridge starter away and leave the 285g out on the counters for about 8-12 hours to ripen. It should get bubbly and sour smelling.
Preheat oven to 425F
Mix 2 cups AP flour, 1 tbls baking powder, 1 tbls sugar, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp baking soda in a bowl. Cut 1/2 cup cold butter into the bowl and use fingers or a pastry blender to flatten the butter until it is all dime-size pieces.
Give your starter a stir to deflate it and check the volume. Add buttermilk or yogurt to bring it up to 1.5 cups total volume.
Pour your starter/milk mixture into the bowl with the other ingredients and stir gently to make a dough mass.
Pour the dough out onto a clean floured counter and flatten it out to about 1/2" thickness. Use a biscuit cutter (or a jar lid like me) to cut out rounds and place them on a parchment paper lined sheet pan. I got about 20 rounds with my standard mason jar lid.
Brush with egg wash or butter and bake for 20 minutes or until golden.
