SO not to talk about my various hustles on tumblr but: I bead pearls now!

I have 0 budget for advertising but I am trying to sell them because at a certain point being creative just fills your house up.

What they are: handtied freshwater pearls with sterling silver clasps

Why are they cool: for one, they're pretty affordable for a gem that's been treasured since antiquity. For two, pearls actually have the potential to be super sustainable and actually clean the water they're grown in! Like they truly might be the most sustainable gem you can buy

What you can do to help my lil business get off the ground: reblog this and follow me on my very small Instagram because that's where the makers are these days, or even check out my shop if you're feeling rad

ok thank you

#s rants #fashion #jewelry #small crafter #hello i technically manage social media at my day job but hate promoting my own stuff!#but actually knotting pearls is so cool and the more I learn the more I'm like 'oh damn this is great'#like literally they are so sustainable compared to just about any other gemstone #and I am not kidding when I say these pieces are heirloom quality particularly the classic colors #which I have on my site but I didn't do a cute shoot with the white strand yet

don't want to set the world on fire

[rating] teen and up audiences [pairing] carlos reyes/tk strand [prompt] tarlos historical au [warnings] angst with a happy ending, canonical character deaths, pearl harbor au, world war ii, grief, mourning, fluff, kissing, alternating pov

[summary] 1941. tk strand and carlos reyes arrive in hawaii ready to recover from their own, personal tragedies. what they are not expecting is to find love among war.

happy holidays, @tailoredshirt! i really hope you enjoy reading this story just as much as i’ve enjoyed writing it!

it wouldn’t have made sense without the incredibly fast beta-reading help of @morganaspendragonss and the hand-holding offered by @moviegeek03 when i thought i couldn’t do this.

title from the song by the ink spots, which was released in 1941.

don't want to set the world on fire 15k+ | read on ao3

March 27th, 1941

“What do you mean, you're going to Europe?” TK tries to control his voice as he chooses to ask the first of the myriad of questions that are exploding in his head.

“They need the help,” Alex explains calmly. He doesn't look TK in the eye when he continues, “That's why I enlisted.”

“You volunteered?” TK screeches, earning themselves a few glares from the other people having dinner at this fancy restaurant where he had thought about proposing to his boyfriend.

Maybe proposing isn't exactly the right word, since they can't actually get married, but TK had planned to promise forever to this man who's now telling him that he's volunteered to step into a war that doesn't even have anything to do with them.

This definitely isn't how TK had envisioned his evening going.

“Yeah,” Alex confirms in a low voice. “It's not unheard of, you know. We need to help.”

“We?” TK huffs. “It's not our war, Alex. Your selflessness is amazing, but I highly doubt that you dying for them is going to change the course of the war.”

“You can't know that,” Alex retorts. He sighs as he stretches his hand across the table to rest it on top of TK’s, but TK jerks back. “TK, please,” he tries again. “I know it's difficult to understand and almost impossible to accept, but all I'm asking of you is to respect my decision.”

“How can you ask me to respect that you want to—die for people who will never even know your name?” He tries to keep his voice steady and still low, so as to not attract any more attention upon them, but it breaks around the middle, tears threatening to fall. “Alex—”

“I'm a pilot,” his boyfriend interrupts. “That's what I am. That's the only thing I am. I know I can help. I'm going to, whether you want me to or not, but I'd hoped that you'd at least understand, what with your father being a high-up and—”

“War was what broke my parents.” It's now TK’s turn to cut the conversation off, veering it towards the pain he's feeling. “How could you think that I'd be fine knowing that you'd volunteered to die halfway across the world? When did this happen? How did I miss it?”

Alex doesn't say anything, as if sensing that TK needs to say everything that's crushing his heart.

“When?” TK asks, voice not louder than a whisper. He remembers, a second too late, the dispatch orders his father's signed this very same morning; TK was at Colonel Strand's office when a secretary came in with a stack of papers allowing American soldiers to fly out the very next morning. “Please don't say—”

“Tomorrow,” Alex says, looking down at his plate.

TK holds his breath for a few seconds, counts to five, and exhales slowly. He repeats to himself that he won't panic, that everything will be fine in the end. After seven rounds of controlled breathing, he feels confident enough to speak, even though his soul is shattered.

“Here I thought that tonight would be the first night of our whole future together…and it's actually the last night for us.”

Alex looks stricken as TK’s words seem to register. TK witnesses his boyfriend understand what his plan had been all along, as a lonely tear rolls down his cheek, as Alex wipes it away discreetly because he's a soldier and he needs to be tough, not sensitive. He looks down at his hands, balled in fists over the tablecloth, and exhales.

“Well,” Alex finally says. He reaches out to touch TK, and this time he lets Alex's fingers smooth the skin over his hands. “If this is our last night together, would you save a dance for me?”

That's what both disarms TK and breaks his heart, at the same time.

He has never been able to say no to Alex, not even once in the whole fourteen months, three weeks, five days and seventeen hours since they started dating. And yes, he's been counting—sue him.

“Of course,” TK breathes out slowly. “Wanna go to the pier after dinner?”

one of the ways you can spot that Goncharov is a tumblr fever dream is the absolutely bonkers number of locations for iconic Scenes

the Bridge

the Clocktower

the Restaurant

the Dressing Room

the Boathouse

the Docks

the Market (apple scene)

#goncharov #unreality #like most movies have like only one or two capital-s Scenes that referred to by people discussing the film #i mean yeah it's supposedly just under three hours long but still it's starting to sound like a game of clue #katya and sofia in the dressing room with a strand of pearls #goncharov and andrey in the market with an apple #ice-pick joe in the clocktower with - surprise! - an icepick

Alright, so looks like I posted most of the pearls I’ve drawn, but here’s the last of them. 4-4 at the beginning and near the end after she changed her hair and gained confidence. 4-2, well, or my best attempt since I made her far too complicated for my drawing abilities, and Pearl (3-11) near the end of the series! May end up drawing some more if I have the time. We’ll see.

So I've been applying for jobs for MONTHS with barely any traction and then a couple nights ago I submitted another round of applications and have already gotten four interviews (and one call back for a second round interview)! So...I decided to celebrate by getting myself some pretty and semi-reasonably priced jewelry on Poshmark because what else do you do when you've been struggling with your depression, feeling bad about not working, been kind of sick, and have a toddler who sometimes seems like she's reached the terrible twos prematurely? RETAIL THERAPY, THAT'S WHAT!
