It’s a good few weeks, and it feels like everyone’s back on track, settling into their lives again, figuring everything out one day at a time. Buck’s happy. He has his awesome girlfriend, his best friend seems finally more at ease, even if the divorce is adding some stress, and his other best friend is happier than ever with his mom around. Everything’s finally starting to go great.

And then it all gets disrupted again.

the age old dilemma of going into a book tag on tumblr to get inspiration for the book/fic you're writing...only to get nothing but gifs from the mediocre/questionable movie/tv show adaptation

once upon a time, in about 2016, someone wrote HeR to find out where they sourced the images used to decorate Abby's room in MHM and were told that the art came from the Corel library.

this... was not true. obvs I don't think the HeR employee who answered that email was intentionally misleading/lying to this person, but it's bad info nevertheless. basically all the in game art from MHM/the early games came from the Mary Evans/Pictures Now collection, which I know because I've spent a buttload of time trying to id all the irl art used in the games.

so why bring up the Corel thing? because as it turns out that there is an ND game that almost exclusively* used art from Corel, but it's not MHM, or any of the early games. that game is in fact Warnings at Waverly Academy. seriously. easiest time I've ever had tracking down in-game art. (the corel art collection is waaay smaller than the mary evans/pictures now collection. like two orders of magnitude smaller. like 500 images vs 60,000 images. you get the picture.)

*and by almost exclusively I mean there is seriously one painting in wac that isn't on any of the corel art disks. and that painting? pictures now collection. why? why not any of the 450+ corel paintings that didn't make it into wac? the mind boggles.

Chapter 9

Kevin sleeps in much later than he normally would have. It makes him feel groggy and stiff as he stumbles out of bed, joints creaking like an old man. He shuffles out into his living area, only to find Jeremy at the stove, humming while he makes eggs. Meanwhile, Jean sits at the counter, drinking coffee as he keeps him company. They both turn as soon as they see him. Kevin tries not to wince. “Morning, Kev,” Jeremy says cheerily. “Water’s hot for your tea. If you want to grab a plate, these are about done too.” “Thanks,” Kevin gruffly replies, moving past Jean toward the cupboard. He’s immediately stopped by Jean’s hand on his hip. He spins Kevin around to face him. “How do you feel this morning?” he asks him quietly.

“Oh. Um…better, thank you,” Kevin responds, embarrassed. His eyes drift off to the side before fingers gently grip his chin and turn his head back. He swallows, heat growing in his stomach as Jean forces him to meet his eyes. “Truly?”  He questions. “You did not have any nightmares? No more dissociation?” Kevin shakes his head. “No, I…not after yesterday.” Jean searches his face a moment longer before he huffs. He lets go of Kevin, hand sliding across his stomach before turning back to his coffee. “Good.” Stupidly, Kevin flushes at this, so he quickly goes over to the cupboard to hide the damning color. He grabs a mug and makes his tea, before nabbing a plate and sitting at the counter next to Jean.  Jeremy uses a spatula to slide the omelette onto Kevin’s plate before he hands him a fork. Gratefully, Kevin starts digging into it. “Like it?” Jeremy smiles as he watches. “Yearsh, iss reall-” Kevin mumbles, food still in his mouth, before he finishes chewing and swallows. “It’s really good,” he finishes. Jeremy beams. They wait until he’s done eating, probably so he doesn’t choke, before Jean clucks his tongue and asks, “So…how long have you been having trouble with your team?”

Last Line/WIP Snippet Tag

Thanks for the tag, @fluffleforce @kahvilahuhut @did-i-do-this-write

Sharing a longer snippet because I really like it :D

From WARRIOR:

“Lug,” Sharpe muttered, “what did I say about singing?”

He stumbled and grunted as Lug clapped a hand on his shoulder. “There’s nothin’ here. You scared of rocks?”

“There was ‘nothing’ in the junkyard, too,” he said, slipping away from Lug’s touch.

He hardly had to look behind him to know Briar had twisted his face in discomfort. The boy had told him in rambling, nervous words that he hadn't sensed anyone before the attack, but Sharpe hadn't wanted to talk about Pather abilities, sensing people, or anything he couldn’t point his gun at. 

“Yeah, but we still made it out like we always do. And look what we get to see now!” Lug swept his hand down toward the city before resting it on his hip. “The junkyard was all red and brown. Andakil’s pretty!”

Sharpe turned to regard the spread of light and color below them. It was aesthetically fine, but he was more concerned about the alleys, the levels’ twists, and the specks of transports zooming around. There would be as many places to hide in the city as there were in the canyons above it—not exactly a level battlefield.

“It’s rainbow,” he said tonelessly.

“Maybe we can stay here,” said a small voice, “if it turns out to be safe.”

Nothing will ever be safe for us, Sharpe wanted to say. It almost spilled from his mouth automatically, as mechanical as his frame.

He looked down, tensed at the anticipative shine in Briar’s eyes, and said instead, “We’ll see.”

Briar smiled very slightly.

At that smile, some part of him remembered hope.

I am out of the med that regulates my pain (and the soonest I might get it is tonight if I'm lucky)

I haven't slept well in like a week

I log on to The Webbed Site and find that one of the peeps I enjoyed (through her interactions with several other wonderful queers on my dash) has been permabanned by the CEO, loosing her 4th account and her name is being used as a bludgeon to kill other queers, most often Trans Women who've already dealt with repeated baseless account wipes

I am so full of pain,

Tumblr is one of the extremely few places where I can be Queer and interact fully with others like me. It's the only place I have where I can speak and feel like I can actually say all I want to without the same level of worry that I have in my In Person life. I am blessed to have protection in the form of a Roommate dedicated to privacy protection and absolutely locking our Internet down. Even then, in the place I feel most comfortable to be Queer, I consciously make sure to not id my name, my siblings names, where I live or lived, because I *know* it takes one SINGLE person deciding to label me as a threat, to add me to a list, to ensure that I receive every bit of what Avery has shouldered for years. It's the reality of being Queer.

Trans Women and Men and People, the queers they are and they are friends with know to their core the reality of existence. We know that this is not fair, just, kind or in any way reasonable and yet when we stand in Solidarity and continue to point out how deeply this hurts! How deeply it guts the members of Tumblr who have defined it so completely they had the gall to say it was The Queerst Place, to be banned, to be targeted, to say the millions of dollars in ad revenue is worthless cause you're a goddamn tranny,

It simply results in the CEO doubling down, in scores of users sticking their head in the sand...

Well...

I can't do much, sitting here, in pain, feeling the loss of Avery and Nebulaaa and I am absolutely certain dozens of others,

But I don't intend to shut the fuck up,

We protect each other. And when Tumblr finally burns itself to the ground, whether 30 days or 3 years from know, I know I will find an internet home with all of you again,

Get fucked Tumblr, I hope this site gets hit by an exploding hammer car

It's not on the to-do list, but I did get my program note revisions done and sent in.

I really want to get this fic out tonight but I fear it will not happen...

1.9k in and literally nothing of the plot has happened it's all matty being soppy about how in love he is?? I have a one track mind and its never on actual plot lol

     whenever i switch blogs every few days, i’ve always got like, 8 new bots following elliott’s blog...

          ,,, i haven’t had a single one so far on jesse is it because y’all think he’s dusty —

          ||. not me finally putting together a in-depth verse page for my hcs/thoughts on forces, specifically on sonic’s captivity + his relationship w ‘the rookie’.           you can find the general overview of the verse (specifically: sonic’s 6 month confinement) HERE on my verses page, and the general gist of his relationship with the Rookie HERE.
