So, you wanna know about Flying Over the Pit of Death, aka Magpie AU

Hi, it's me, Plasma, also known as fuckinart & daddyplasmius, here to introduce a little project I've been working on since 2020 (but the AU of which has been haunting me since 2016) called Flying Over the Pit of Death, or as I call it, FOtPoD, the Magpie AU.

On top of the panic, the anxiety, the disbelief, Danny thinks idly to himself that he has always wanted to fly. After an accident with his parents’ Portal, Danny Fenton finds himself no longer human in more ways than one.

I would like to say first that Magpie AU is 100% a crack AU that I accidentally started taking way too seriously, because I find identity shenanigans & losing your sense of self & humanity to be the perfect recipe for angst. The original idea that inspired Magpie AU was something called Bird AU by @rest-in-peachs & you can find the original Bird AU post here, though I used almost nothing from the original & added a whole lot more, hence the renaming to Magpie AU.

The fic itself is called Flying Over the Pit of Death, which is based on the quote, "We go down into the pit of death and feel the waters of annihilation close above our heads and wake thinking to find ourself in the presence of angels." by Virginia Woolf (which I now see is the incomplete version)

So, what actually is FOtPoD? Well, there's 3 main things you need to know about Magpie AU first:

Danny goes through the Portal Accident aloneーSam & Tuck aren't there. This is a No One Knows AU.

Danny's arm & leg are damaged from the Accident & he is held back by this in human form. He has chronic pain & limited mobility. And,

The whole reason for, well, everything, Danny's ghost form is a (ghostly) magpie. He can't shapeshift any more than he can in canon, he's just a magpie when he goes ghost now. There is no real reason for this.

So, again, what is FOtPoD? I explained the AU, but this doesn't really say anything about the fic itself, & the description is pretty vague.

To put it simply, FOtPoD is a pseudo-rewrite, with each part based on actual canon episodes. It focuses a lot on Danny's struggles with how humanーor inhumanーhe is post Accident, his degrading mental health, & his straining relationship with his friends & family while attempting to keep his hoard of secrets from them. Also, because I can't make Danny entirely alone here, he gets some crow friends, hence the art of him surrounded by crows.

If you haven't caught on already, this is heavily inspired by Animorphs since that's what I was reading when I gave in & began writing FOtPoD, as well as the Alex Rider book series which inspired the more current version & really helped me figure out how to write that particular mental health downward spiral.

So, what's to be expected? I've already planned & mapped out 12 parts, 60 chapters in whole, as well as a mini comic thing based on one of the later chapters which was actually one of the first chapters I'd planned & wrote.

Currently, I'm deep into editing & rewriting FOtPoD to better fit my plans & the themes for the third time, so posting it is looking a lot like

in the meantime, I'm going over my older fic, Phantom, for reasons, which be will updated regularly for the next 10-ish weeks on Wednesdays/Thursdays, & uh, expect more FOtPoD (& generally DP) art I guess xD

#Danny Phantom #Magpie AU #FOtPoD #Flying Over the Pit of Death #Bird AU #I also have other plans for other DP things #going into the woods where I shant have much internet so I'll be working no FOtPoD 100%#which I need to be doing because I've been procrastinating T-T #it's just really annoying having to rewrite the beginning again even though I really want the new one #anyway I don't think there's anything more to say. might make a better post later with like. my actual designs drawn out #like a little information pamphlet #because I Do have official designs. the ''who're your friends'' is basically it for Danny & the crows if you're curious #okay I have to shower & leave goodbye enjoy all of whatever this is & if you got questions feel free to ask

Dead Friend Forever ep 6

I've been procrastinating on this because I'm finding it hard to watch all the bullying...but I want to catch up so the only way is to just do it!

...and also to remember that these are horrible people who will get what they deserve eventually. The show did a great job of making the audience (me) like (some of) them first and now that's changed.

Ohhhh the messages...I wish they'd translate at least some of them.

The abused becomes the abuser...

I just about choked on my pizza. IS JIN WATCHING KINNPORSCHE?! OPENLY?! AT SCHOOL?!?!

I don't know what it's like in Thailand (or anywhere else other than the UK and Sweden) but it wouldn't be that easy to open accounts and move money around like this, especially high school kids and especially random large sums of money. But I'm going with it for the story.

I'm waiting for the big reveal of who it is that Non keeps trying to contact. I mean I think I know who it is but I'm loving how they've twice cut to the poster of the tutor afterwards to imply something's going on there.

Oh Non's T-shirt game is on point this ep. 'Is there anything bothering you?' / 'You can tell by my face?' No, love, it's the glaring message adorning your chest 😂

This tutor had better not take advantage of Non. No, don't touch him. 😡

I will not get sucked into feeling sorry for Tee. I will not get sucked into feeling sorry for Tee.

Is Por going to buy a whole new camera? Because otherwise how can it be fixed so quick?! They're in school, he wanted the full cost back from Non, and he wants to use the camera straight away the next day. I don't know who could fix it that quick and why he would need the full-price cost for that...but I think the nuance may be lost in translation here...

Uncle DAMN!

Are they hallucinating again? Or is this their film?...Oh, it's their fiim... Nice 'callback' to their future plight.

Oh no is Jin going to shoot his shot ? Oh thank god he didn't. I'm afraid he will and will get rejected and then that'll make him join the others in bullying Non.

Not 'Mindset is Everything' when Non's about to get beaten up. Honestly these t-shirts are getting me through this 😂

Ok, I don't feel sorry for Por's mum anymore.

Ohhhh is the red bracelet is for Phee, who is red, and therefore Non is blue?

THERE HE ISSSSSSSSSSS AHHHHHHHHHHH PHEEEEEEEEEEEE

Oh no....I don't like that tutor. At all.

Thinking about what I've seen so far about the past, I've been wondering why the events of the future have happened the way they have, and there's a small part of me questioning whether Top and Tee are the two main intended 'victims' of the murderer. Even though they all bullied Non (Jin less so), they're the ones who started all the big issues for Non AND the others, with the lie about the broken camera and then setting in motion the events which led to Por, Fluke, and Jin being arrested. I don't know, maybe I'm reading too much into it, but I'm still wondering if Por actually isn't dead and it's part of an act to fuck up Top and Tee...even though I also can see this being a revenge plot by Phee (and maybe also Non...and White somehow). Anyway, I can't wait to get back to the future events!

#dead friend forever #NO SPOILERS PLEASE!#I want to catch up so bad #but I don't have enough time 😭

tag game to better know you

Ty @new-anon for tagging me! What else to do on a cold Monday morning public holiday then fill out a questionnaire about myself 🤔

What book are you currently reading?

The Wright Brothers by David McCullough Definitely has nothing to do with the fact that we can see this book on Ice's shelf next to the photo of him and Mav shaking hands after rescuing the USS Layton...

What’s your favourite movie you saw in theatres this year?

I have only seen the new Spiderman (literally 2 days ago) so I guess that! I think it was pretty good, but tbh I liked the first one more.

What do you usually wear?

Pokemon or bird themed t-shirt paired with shorts or my high school gym trackies if it's cold. I have one green overcoat that I wear pretty much any time I need a jacket, it is very versatile in what weather it can be worn in.

How tall are you?

170cm, that's 5 foot 6 inches to those USAmericans in the audience (had to google that...)

What’s your star sign? Do you share a birthday with a celebrity or a historical event?

I don't know any celebrities off the top of my head that I share a birthday with, and the only historical event I connect immediately with my birthday is a bad one lmao. Though it happened in the 1920s, so mostly only relevant when I was studying history in high school...

Do you go by your name or a nickname?

Serie! Fun fact, I made this name up on the spot randomly when playing Facebook games as an 11 year old and the RPG ones wanted me to input a name. I have been stuck with it ever since.

Did you grow up to become what you wanted to be when you were a child?

My current job didn't even exist when I was a child, so, no!

Are you in a relationship? If not, who is your crush if you have one?

No relationship, and I have not had a crush since high school pff

What’s something you’re good at vs. something you’re bad at?

Good at procrastinating, bad at resisting the lure of more wips 🙏 this makes for a wild combination haha

Dogs or cats?

Probably cats, but I am allergic to cats and dogs (and most fluffy creatures) so I don't have any pets :(

If you draw/write, or create in any way, what’s your favourite picture/favourite line/favourite etc. from something you created this year?

Probably my favourite things that I've posted this year was Dawn and well. haha. (nuts) because they were both very self-indulgent in a way that I always enjoy writing with codywan, though for very very different reasons.

What’s something you’d like to create content for?

I want to write more Aloy femslash!! I've written so much for her, but none really with the characters from the new game, and now with a canon femslash kiss under her belt, I think she deserves to be a wlw icon. Next year for femslash February I'm thinking of trying to organise a Horizon event to get some momentum not just for me but for others to create too

What’s something you’re currently obsessed with?

Val Kilmer's jaw.........

What’s something you were excited about that turned out to be disappointing this year?

I can maybe half say the Horizon: Forbidden West DLC - I liked the overarching plot well enough, and they gave Aloy a lesbian kiss so I'm not too mad, but it carried over almost all of the issues from production that the base game had, which I was keen to see fixed in the DLC. That and the lack of backstory for Seyka or the Quen, the lack of side quests and the lack of interesting stuff to do in the wilds of the DLC made it a bit of a mediocre experience for me (though after HFW I wasn't expecting anything too good anyway).

What’s a hidden talent of yours?

Not sure if it's hidden, but I'm particularly good at spotting double spaces in a document. Pisses me off (it's my editor brain going haywire... my team is always making fun of me for this at work lmao)

Are you religious?

Nope!

What’s something you wish to have at this moment?

Someone to make me breakfast </3 alas after I post this I will simply have to do it myself

Tags?

@elwenyere @tragediegh @playablekairi @cillyscribbles if you like! No pressure ofc

#calling cheese as I wrote one of my fav fics for you #i would tag turtle as i wrote the other for her but not sure of her tumblr...#this is why people should have only one username across every site rip i cannot keep 3443342 names straight in my head #tag games #personal

God motherfucking dammit

I need to rant a bit, because twitter absolutely ruined my fucking day today, among other things. Well it's the specific manga spoilers for JJK that I saw, so if you've not read the newest chapter there are some spoilers here.

I want to strangle someone for fuck's sake. The first time I checked twitter today, I manga panel of one of the two characters I'm hyperfixated on showed up on my timeline. He's dead, he's fucking dead, goddammit. I refuse to read the newest chapter, if I don't read it, it's not true. I want to screeeeeeaaaaam. Or hit something...

I of course realize this probably doesn't seem like serious problem to many of you guys, but it seriously ruined my day, and probably my week. I have so much crap piling up and even the smallest things are driving me crazy.

My brother E is having to stay with me and our brother T who lives with me. E still hasn't heard back from an apartment he's supposed to move into, so he's staying with us, since our dad has now moved to his parents old place and there's no space for E there. I kinda feel like he's not gonna get the apartment, but we'll see. So I'm stressing about that too, but he's going to our mom's if he doesn't hear anything by Friday.

I still haven't started any of my school work that I'm supposed to do. My next/first deadline is on 2nd of October and I still haven't read the book I need to read for it nor have a listened to the podcast. We also got a fuck ton of group assignments on Monday and Tuesday. The deadlines for those are much later, but one of my group members basically wrote one of the assignments all on their own and now I feel useless. I've basically been dead since I got home last night, and I didn't really have the time to contribute. My group is luckily very nice and understanding, so they're not gonna get pissed at me or anything. I think everyone else was surprised too, that the one person basically did the whole thing in one night.

I feel like I'm a lazy piece of shit, because I haven't done anything for the one whole day I've been home, which I know is pretty fucking stupid. I just can't help it. I procrastinate until I feel the deadlines breathing down my neck, and even then it's like eeeeh.

Thanks if you read, I hope you guys are doing better than me and remember to drink water :D

Casual Friday

Main masterlist

A/N: This was supposed to be a drabble, but ended up being a bit longer heh. It's just a little scenario that I've been meaning to write down for ages. I already have a fic with similiar concept in my WIP folder :3 I just like to imagine Stephen in comfy clothes and I will write 10 more fics about it if the motivation stays with me.

Enjoy!

Pairing: Stephen Strange x gn! Reader (platonic or romantic)

Summary: It would take so much more than a weekend to clean all that mess. Who even allowed this room to be so…. Terrible? Disgusting? Stephen couldn’t think of a good adjective that would describe how much pain it caused him to think about all the work he was about to do. Even with the aid of his magic it would take ages. But thanks to him you appeared, offering help. But will you actually help him clean? Yeah… no

This gif is not 'comfy Stephen' enough for me, but it will do

Stephen exhaled loudly, looking at the storage room with tired eyes. He promised Wong he would clean and organise it this weekend.

He actually lost a bet with him, but he was too proud to say that. The doctor knew Wong cheated, because it was impossible that he could beat Stephen at chess every single time. The sorcerer suspected that his colleague was stealing his pieces when he wasn’t looking, but couldn’t prove it. And here he was- in the middle of a room that looked like a ruin, with a single broom in his hand and a frown on his face.

It would take so much more than a weekend to clean all that mess. Who even allowed this room to be so…. Terrible? Disgusting? Stephen couldn’t think of a good adjective that would describe how much pain it caused him to think about all the work he was about to do. Even with the aid of his magic it would take ages. Damn Wong and his stupid game nights!

“You have to do more than stare at the mess for it to disappear.” Your tired voice pulled Stephen out of his thoughts, making the sorcerer jump and curse under his nose.

You were amused when Wong told you about the bet, but couldn’t leave poor Stephen alone in this. Your good heart wouldn’t allow him to suffer alone with those boring and mundane chores. On the other hand, he was the guardian of the New York sanctum and it was one of his duties to keep the storage room tidy and organised. But that didn’t matter now.

“I thought you could use some help.” You spoke again, swiping the dust of a nearby shelf with your pointer finger. Yeah, it would take more than two to accomplish anything.

“Oh, I could definitely use some help.” Stephen sighed and gave you an awkward smile.

It was only when he turned to face you when you noticed his attire. He wasn’t wearing his sorcerer robes- Stephen swapped those for a pair of comfy grey sweatpants and a simple black t-shirt that you could see peeking out of his half zipped burgundy hoodie. He looked so….. Regular. His hair was still messy which meant he must have woken up just a few minutes before you. It might sound weird, but it suited him. If you had to compare his appearance you would say that Stephen looked very much like a tired dad of 3 who had too little free time and too much work to do around the house.

You have never seen him wearing anything else than his robes before. Okay, you have seen him in jeans and sweaters, but never in sweatpants and a hoodie! And he looked sooo good like that.

Stephen cleared his throat, putting his hands into the pockets of his pants. "I think we should slowly get started."

"You know what?" You spoke, leaning on the wall and looking up at the sorcerer. "I didn't have breakfast. Did you?"

"We have so much work to do and you want to eat?" Stephen smirked. He was about to say something sarcastic, but his stomach spoke up before he could..

"I will take that as a no." You sighed and took Stephen by the sleeve of his hoodie. "We need some energy or we will pass out from looking at all that mess."

Stephen didn't question you- he was no procrastinator, but nothing bad would happen if he didn't clean the storage room right away. And he was really hungry.

It’s not like Wong would scold him for not doing what he was supposed to do.

"I feel like we forgot about something." The sorcerer said, wiping away the remains of his sandwich from his shirt on the pavement. The two of you decided to take the metro and go have breakfast on the other side of the city. Stephen proposed it, justifying his decision saying that he knew a great place. It was a sunny day in New York and it would be a shame to spend it all in the sanctum. That’s why you decided to eat in the park- something Stephen and you did regularly. Sometimes you sat there in silence, but there were times you would talk for hours, only stopping to eat whatever it was you bought to eat. Stephen cherished little moments like this.

And today you couldn’t stop talking. It wasn’t even anything important. You started by discussing the newest episode of the soap opera you watched “out of boredom” and somehow ended up rating your favourite LEGO sets. Neither of you knew how much time had passed, but as long as the planet wasn’t in danger you could take things slow.

"Then I guess it wasn't important." You shrugged, laying down on the wooden bench, head in Stephen's lap. He never had a problem with you randomly laying down or leaning on him- on the contrary. The doctor really enjoyed being close to you. There wasn't a time he didn't feel comfortable around you which said a lot about how much he trusted you. “Let’s just stay here for a while. The weather is nice today.”

“Yeah,” Your friend exhaled loudly, hesitantly putting his hand on your shoulder. Thankfully you didn’t seem to mind- you just smiled. His heart skipped a beat. “Let’s stay here.”

You took your friend’s hand by the wrist and turned it to look at his watch. Realising it’s been almost 4 hours since you left the sanctum you smirked. Time always seemed to fly by when you were with Stephen. It was so peaceful.

Suddenly you gasped and sat up, almost hitting Stephen’s face. Life disappeared from your eyes and was replaced with fear.

“Wong is gonna kill us.” You whispered. Something in Stephen snapped and the sorcerer was soon on his feet, taking your hand and running as fast as he could.

“We are so dead!” He screamed, but you could hear his laugh through all that panic.

You can deal with the consequences of Wong’s wrath if it meant that Stephen Strange would hold your hand like this again.

Fic dump!

Turns out going to grad school triggered some kind of next-level procrastination in me that caused me to write TEN FANFICS over the past like year and a half? And I pretty much never post about them but I've been reading over them and I'm proud of them, damn it! So here they all in all their glory:

Tiger & Bunny

Somebody to Love: Rated T https://archiveofourown.org/works/44161159

“Hey, Kaede,” Kotetsu says as she reaches for the door handle, “can you hang on a minute? Daddy--er, I mean, I have something I want to talk to you about.” Kaede puts her hand back in her lap and looks at her father. Suddenly all his nervous energy makes sense. He looks so serious, and her stomach flutters.

“What is it?” she asks, almost afraid to hear the answer.

---

Before going home after Justice Day, Kotetsu has something very important to talk to his daughter about.

his eyes on you (and only you): Rated E https://archiveofourown.org/works/43524474

Barnaby must feel the weight of Kotetsu’s gaze on him, because his eyes flicker over to him.

Behave yourself, the slight quirk of his brow seems to say.

What do I get if I do? Kotetsu signals with a smirk. Barnaby’s gaze turns molten then, and the photographer makes a ruckus about the perfect shot, but all Kotetsu can hear is Barnaby’s voice in his head.

Be good and maybe you’ll find out.

---

Wherein Kotetsu discovers his jealous side during a photoshoot.

Keep You Safe: Rated T https://archiveofourown.org/works/42866211

Barnaby gets in trouble for rushing to Kotetsu's aid at the expense of the citizens' safety. Kotetsu knew it was only a matter of time before his dwindling power would get in his partner's way. But not everything's as cut and dry as he thinks...

Snuggle Bunny: Rated G https://archiveofourown.org/works/42589473

A lazy and somewhat chilly morning in Kotetsu's apartment and a well-worn sweatshirt.

Drowning Sorrows: Rated T https://archiveofourown.org/works/40983090

"He’d not only wasted enough of his time, but he had the strangest feeling in the pit of his stomach, like he wasn’t supposed to be seeing what he was seeing right now."

In which Barnaby isn't surprised that his new partner switched their phones by mistake, but is very surprised by what he finds when he goes to get his back.

Matchablossom

You Make It Better Like That: Rated E https://archiveofourown.org/works/37376449

It suddenly registers that Kaoru is wearing Western-style clothing, and that’s definitely something that needs to be examined in better lighting. Kaoru moves towards the bike, but Kojiro grabs his hand. “You sure you’re okay?” he asks, noting the tension around Kaoru’s eyes. But then Kaoru smiles, rubbing the back of Kojiro’s hand with his thumb, and some of the tension eases out. “I’m fine now. But I’m serious about the food.” “You’re impossible,” Kojiro sighs, smiling.

---

Kaoru goes to a party that sucks. Kojiro makes his night infinitely better.

you're awful, i love you: Rated T https://archiveofourown.org/works/31059977

If anyone were to ask, Nanjo Kojiro would say he’s the luckiest man alive.

Except for the fact that his boyfriend is the worst bedmate in the world.

A collection of microfics exposing Sakurayashiki Kaoru for the goblin that he is.

Fancy Calculations: Rated T https://archiveofourown.org/works/31011641

The first date Kojiro's been dreaming of for a literal decade and Kaoru never knew he wanted.

The Long Weekend: Rated M https://archiveofourown.org/works/31477694

Kaoru is invited to a calligraphy exhibition in Osaka and thinks it could be the perfect opportunity to whisk his boyfriend away for a romantic getaway where they can have sex for the first time. Unfortunately, Kaoru's anxiety brain doesn't intend to make it so easy.

the real world can wait: Rated G https://archiveofourown.org/works/32458675

It's raining and Kojiro doesn't feel like getting up to work out. Add a warm, sleepy Kaoru to the mix and it's the perfect recipe for staying in bed.

Hi, I just read your story ‘love’s such an old fashioned word’ on AO3 and god it’s such a good plot and so well written, but then I noticed it hasn’t been updated in years, so I figured I’ll ask here if it’s still in progress or abandoned?

first of all, thank you for reading & for enjoying my story enough to come find me! welcome to the few, the happy few; I write what I want to read so thank you for sharing my taste in fan fic <3

and second of all, I can promise it is NOT abandoned and that I do think about this fic often, so it will eventually get finished, if solely because yeah I do want to be able to go back and read a finished version of my own story when I feel like it-

...you may have sensed a "but" coming. There's a few. I've talked about some before, here...

but also. uh. Uh. I am conscious of... a behavorial pattern? A character flaw? Living up to that "procrastination is our Olympic sport" line on the back of my high school senior class T-shirts....?:

Note Glass of Water *is* complete...after just six years of getting kind questions like this about that fic.

Writing is a priority for me. ...Priorities, sorting out, not my natural skill set. But in between real job/social life/workouts/relaxing time, I already don't carve out as much writing time as I mean to.

So when I do... it's the short novel I just wrote under a penname as work for hire; it's winding my way out of the circles of editing hell on the Revise & Resubmit of my original novel (which will hopefully be my debut); it's the new original ideas I keep making notes on because I need to be editing right now but my inspiration's elsewhere...

Every fic I have posted since 2016 was not really intended - they were fits of inspiration directed other than where I wanted it. They were something I couldn't not write. When a story grabs me like that, it takes over every other priority - or, as when the early chapters of LSAOFW rushed out of me in 2020, is my escape from them. But if I don't get it all out in completion before the rush seeps out and the rest of life creeps - or slams- back in... they get bumped under my real priorities. Back to the backburner. Where they are still simmering, for someday. Barring lightning re-striking, which has been known to happen inspiration-wise, for the day I slog through to my intended finish. For a done-with-my-edit, feeling-good-enough-about-my-original-writing-status-to-take-a-fic-break kind of someday, if that makes sense. Close out some chapters both literally & metaphorically.

...this is I'm sure not the answer you were hoping for, but I hope you still find hope in it!

#hp #my fic #my writing #on writing #the happy few #and messaging me about the fic doesn't hurt that's for sure #knowing there's still interest out there & getting the fic more on my mind than its always-backburner def plays a role #would Glass of Water have gotten finished without messages like this one?#...well yes I like to think so simply because I always meant to finish it #but probably some two years later than it did!#hp fic

Hello dear! By a stroke of luck I saw you were doing matchups and I'd love to join <33 I'd like a matchup for tokyo revengers please, if that's okay!!

My pronouns are She/Her and my gender preference is male and I'd like it to be romantic please <3.

For some positive personality traits: I'm overall very friendly and easy to approach. I'm very patient and slow to anger. I'm very empathetic and sympathetic, I have a very easy time putting myself in others' shoes and rarely judge others. I'm a good listener and very attentive to others' needs. I tend to remember little things about the people I love and if I'm passionate about something I will always put my 110% in.

For some negative traits: I have a bad habit of being a people pleaser and have an overall hard time saying no unless I'm asked something blatantly dangerous. I'm a big daydreamer so I often have my head in the clouds which can make me less attentive to my surroundings and may lead the to zone out every now and then. I'm a BIG procrastinator and when I don't really like something I'll leave it until the very last moment to do. And lastly I tend to beat around the bush when I have to say something negative to someone or about someone to them or at least take a while to at least get to it because I try to sugarcoat it as much as possible. So... Basically not very straightforward.

Zodiac signs:

Sun: Taurus Moon: Pisces Rising: Cancer Venus: Pisces

Mbti and enneagram: INFP-T 9w1

Love languages: All of them tbh but primarily Words of affirmation and Physical touch.

What I value in a relationship:

Truly I appreciate honesty and communication. In relationships I'm quite good at being both of those with a partner fortunately and I appreciate it if they do the same. I'm a very big romantic and they don't necessarily have to be too but I like it when they don't mind gestures, unless it something that genuinely makes them uncomfortable of course. I like it when my partner is thoughtful and I like at least a bit of patience.

My hobbies include:

-Ballet

-Cooking/Baking

-Playing Piano and Bass guitar

-Writing (poetry/songs/books)

-Reading

-Listening to music

-Pottery (just started though 😅)

For other details:

I like animals, I like to go on unnecessarily long walks, kind of embarrassing but sometimes when I'm nervous to go somewhere for whatever reason I have this little plushie I take with me in my bag, I collect pink snack packages?? It might've not been delicious but at least the packaging is cute 😪, another unsung love language of mine is just feeding people? It ties in with my hobby for sure but with me you'll never go hungry, I like dressing up, my favorite season is winter, I'm very affectionate both verbally and physically and will tone it down depending on the person, I can be very talkative with the right person, sometimes when I laugh too hard I snork a little :/, I'm busy getting a degree in pedagogy, even though I dance ballet I'm a terrible dancer in all other aspects and... That's all I can think of at the moment.

For my ideal type:

I've thought about it but I'm not very picky. I just like people who like me :D

The scenario I'd like to see with them:

I'd like to see what they do for a date please!!

I hope that was enough 😩 tysm dear, I hope you have a great day <3

1000 Follower Event Matchup #1

Want to participate in this event? You can figure out how to do so in this post

Note: Welcome to my blog and thank you so much for sending in a matchup request! You were the first one! :D I'm not sure if you're a manga reader or not, because this character talked about more in the manga, but hopefully you know him! I hope you like that I paired you with him too. It literally took me hours to narrow it down NFHEKABF, but this one is definitely perfect for you (he's one of my favs that I learned to love after starting the manga SO CONGRATS, keep him happy :( )

I match you with…HAKKAI SHIBA!

runner-ups were sanzu and kakucho, but I decided on hakkai for the reasons I'm about to list heh

To start off with the technical stuff, Hakkai is an INFP, just like you, and his enneagram is 9w1, just like yours as well so you two would definitely have a lot in common and that would bring you both closer together! Two peas in one pod, we love to see it. He's also a Virgo which based on the site I used, they are compatible with Taurus'. :3

Onto the more personable details, Hakkai would absolutely love how friendly and approachable you are, he’s pretty shy with women, so you being the way you are made it that much easier for him to approach you when you two first met. He’d fondly watch as you get lost in your head, daydreaming away. For the moments when you can’t say no to people, he’d step in and draw the line for you. No one will walk over you with him around, or take advantage of your kindness. He’s super protective over you and watches over you whenever you guys go anywhere together. He does look pretty intimidating, so that helps in keeping some negative or unwanted attention away from you. His main goal is to keep you safe and happy!

Get ready to have your love language filled, he’s very touchy as soon as the early, awkward stage of your relationship is over. ALWAYS has to be holding your hand or touching you in some way–whether you’re walking beside him or sitting next to him at a Toman meeting. He’ll also always tell you how much he loves you and how beautiful you are (while blushing because even though he’s been with you for so long, that awkwardness still pops through every now and then). TRULY a perfect match. I SHIP IT. AND ARE U KIDDING ME?? BALLET??? HE would make it his mission to watch you practice with hearts in his eyes and you better believe he’s attending all of your recitals (if you have any, if not, he's perfectly fine supporting you in private).

He would find a way to incorporate himself into your hobbies, by joining in on some like reading or cooking. Would definitely be willing to have a sneak taste if you want to feed him, and I think he’d enjoy feeding you as well. JUST VERY CUTE ROMANTIC THINGS WITH HIM OKAY. I'M SO JELLY WRITING THIS BC HE’S ONE OF MY FAVS BUT WOW HE WOULD LOVE YOU SO MUCH. He really enjoys watching you do the things you love like writing and playing instruments. Hakkai loves the little snort that sometimes leaks through when you laugh–it gets him blushing like mad bc you’re just so adorable to him and can’t believe he’s lucky enough to be with you. Invite me to your wedding please :(

Date Night with Hakkai:

First of all, as soon as I saw pottery on your list of hobbies, this idea instantly came into my head

BUT YES HAKKAI WOULD TAKE YOU ON A POTTERY DATE EEEE SO ROMANTIC

He knows you’re still learning pottery and he figured this would be a perfect time for him to hop in on one of your hobbies–he’s excited to learn!

He takes you to this quaint local studio that allows people to come in and do their own pottery for a small fee

At first he’s just watching you do your own thing; collecting the clay, throwing it on the wheel, and working your wet hands into the clay, shaping it to perfection

He tries to follow along, but you’ll probably have to give him a hand, guiding his hands the right way (little “ghost” pottery scene action here NFHEKAFEKJ)

You both have a great time, especially Hakkai, but he’s mostly happy about seeing you enjoy yourself

He could honestly have fun doing anything at all so long as he gets to spend time with you

Of course once your creations are made and ready to be thrown in the kiln, you leave and make an appointment to come back to pick your ceramic pieces up another day

After your pottery date, he walks hand in hand with you to a nearby restaurant where your wonderful date continues

10/10 would recommend, now I wanna make pottery again ahhhhhh

EVENT REQUESTS ARE CLOSED

REGULAR REQUESTS ARE OPEN

Hey I was wondering if I could get a Band of Brothers male ship? Thanks :)

I have short dark brown hair and brown eyes. I have pearl earrings currently. I am 5'6. I am also ftm and gay. He/him pronouns

I am currently learning German and Ukrainian. I play the cello (I would say that I'm pretty decent at it). I want to join the paratroopers soon and maybe get a doctorate degree in the medical field. I like writing books, reading, and drawing. I am very interested in history, mainly the 20th century. I also know how to cross-country ski and love the winter.

My MBTI type if I remember correctly is INTJ. I love procrastinating and do well under a lot of pressure. I'm also very stubborn and awkward with talking to people so I don't have many close friends. For some reason, I have a sort of knack for doing things well, even if it's the first time I've tried it and that might be because I listen really closely to stuff to make sure I'm doing everything correctly. I need a straightforward path and a list of things I should do to get something done.

I have depression, anxiety and maybe (I say maybe because it's undiagnosed) maladaptive daydreaming, which basically means I daydream too much that it's a problem. Any small words of affection or reassurance sends me through the roof and makes me happy for the rest of the day (idk why). I also get angry very quickly and forget things quickly.

I am converting to Judaism so that’s cool. My sense of clothing style is just me pretending I’m in the military, pleather jackets, heavy jackets that are either camo or dark green, aviator sunglasses, a lot of neutral colours, fancy dress shirts/blouses, combat boots (which I currently do not own so just tennis shoes or winter boots), I have a few BoB pins which I have created on my own :) I like wearing t-shirts in winter under my jacket just because. The t-shirts usually have designs like aeroplanes, space, and museum shirts. I also have a collection of shirts from places I’ve never been cause I think it’s hilarious. I do a lot of things just cuz I think they’re funny.

I keep a lot of stuff in my pockets “just in case”. I impulse buy, which is a big insecurity of mine. People intimidate me easily so I usually wait to get approached to start a conversation. I like watching adventure shows like extinct or alive or expedition unknown.

I would say that I have a very dark sense of humour and am almost always sarcastic when talking to my friends (also I love irony). I have an interesting music taste, most any song I listen to goes onto my liked songs on Spotify heh. I sometimes slip into a British accent or one that isn’t mine at all. I also tend to get myself injured at least once daily and now it’s a running joke with my friends.

I don’t really know much about romance, but I try. I don’t like that much physical affection but I do like praise, as I said before, and gifts. I love giving gifts to people. <3

Thank you so much for your request! btw you sound so cool like omg let’s be friends bae (Also sorry for the long wait!) 😫💗

I ship you with…

Bull Randleman!

song recommendation: Melting - Kali Uchis

- Okay bestie so hear me out, you and him would just click to me, i just feel like he’s so patient and loving with you it would be so freakin nice omg, and the way you are thoughtful and gentle to him is just so amazing, like this is my otp right here

- he would probably make the first move, you’d look so good that night you guys met he just couldn’t resist not talking to you, he was probably a little nervous at first, but the thought of making a move before him and getting to talk to you made him impulsive make his way towards you

- when getting to know you, he would think you’re so versatile and so smart, he couldn’t help but bring a smile to his face when he hears you talk about all of your ambitions and goals that you’ve set out for yourself.

- And don’t even get me started on how he would be sooo interested on the fact that you’re a writer and just an artist in general, like he just thinks it’s so cool that you can just write something up and it can be like super good, and when you’re drawing don’t be mad when he’s right behind you watching your every move 🤣 like he just wants to see how you can draw so well, like what the heck??

- He knows you like history (he’s an attentive boi) so he would always bringing up watching something that has to do with history maybe something in the smithsonian channel or just a random movie, (as long as you watch his western movies with him after LOL )

- I could def see you guys watching one of those documentaries or movies on the roaring 20s or something else you you like from the 20th century, just a reminder though, that the whole time you try to watch the movie he’s gonna be trying to initiate (if you’re okay with it ofc) a little make out sess in between the movie 🤣

- speaking of tv, let me tell you how you guys would throwdown on some adventure unknown episodes, like both of you would enjoy watching stuff that like so much, before y’all usually go to bed y’all would probably watch something like that every night LOL

- you guys have a very different sense of humor but both of yours honestly go so well together like when you make a dark joke he’ll just be like 😳 at first then start to laugh about it, the one thing that you guys do have, is some good ass sarcasm, like together you guys can be so funny with it actually, like y’all will be in y’all’s own little world while everybody else is like, “what are they laughing at?”

- most the time he tries to be the best support system for you, not matter what, if you need him he’s there rain or shine, even if he sometimes disagrees with what it is you’re doing (if it is he’ll most likely talk to you in private about it but he will always support and defend you in public no matter what) Also let me mention if someone ever hurts you? literally pray for them bc that man is going to END them, like no one hurts his bae EVER.

- When you get angry, it depends, he will usually give you your space to cool off, then you guys can talk about whatever is bothering you, but if you’re more sad angry, he will just sit there and hold you and tell you everything will be alright, he’s one of those people that are like, “what’s made you mad and what can I do to fix it?” If he mad you mad he will of course say sorry to you and at the end of the day you guys always resolve arguments and stuff like that with each other

- to him, your pockets are like the hat in “Cat In The Hat” 🤣 like there is no telling what the heck is in there or what he might find if he puts his hand in there, but it can also come in handy when he needs some change or something like that

- you’re his clumsy bae and whenever you guys are together, he always tries his best to get you to *not* fall or hurt yourself when he’s around. He honestly thinks it’s a little cute at first, just because you’re always going and going, not being careful at all 😭 “Slow down honey, you’re gonna get hurt!” (momma bull activated LMAO)

- he makes SURE to remind you how much he loves and cares about you, he knows that every day isn’t always guaranteed, so he always will show you and tell you how grateful he is to be yours and yours only🥹 (he’s so soft omg i love him)

- your style is so unique to him, like you clothing choice is SUPERIOR to him don’t even get me started, and it’s so funny when he is just going through your closet (don’t ask me why he is, he just is 🤫) and he sees all of these shirts with cities on them, and he’s just like, “you’ve been here before?” and you’re just like “no?” LOLOLOL

- dude he would find it sooo cool that you can speak multiple languages, like maybe even teach him some because i think he would be really interested in it, and when others ask about all of the languages you can speak he’ll just think to himself like, “yeah that’s right, I have a smart bf 😌”

- Okay okay, imagine, you and him have a shared playlist on spotify, and sometimes you guys will play that playlist and just dance around together lovingly, also it’s so funny bc the playlist consists mostly of songs that you put in it, while he has maybe 1/5 of his song recs on there LOL

- he also loves when you give him gifts, he’ll never admit it bc he doesn’t want to seem greedy, but just the thought of you taking time out of your day to buy him something he likes, just thinking of him like that makes his heart absolutely melt

- he knows you can also forget things quite easily so when you guys are about to go somewhere this man comes PREPARED, like one time you guys were going to go to the bowling alley, and when you got there you realized that you forgot socks, dw tho bc he already had an extra pair of socks bc he knew you’d forget them 😭

- canon: you teach bull how to ski (LOL) as we know, this man does not go skiing like ever, i mean he lives in the south so there’s barely ever any snow in the winters (coming from another southerner) but maybe for a vacay you guys go to a ski resort or something like that, and he’s mostly there bc of the jacuzzis bc he does NOT know how to ski at ALL, but you end up showing him how, it was funny at first though because just imagine him, this strong guy, being nervous to ski for the first time LOL

- During the wintertimes just know this man loves to cuddle up to you like a totally snuggle bug, like just know you won’t be cold at ALL because you know this man will keep you warm all through winter.

- but you guys would be SO good for each other like actually, he takes care of you so well and you do the same exact thing for him, ugh this relationship is too cute

Thank you for your request again hon!! I hope you enjoy! 💛💖

Hello! I saw that you are doing ships and thought that I'd put my description here! Thanks for doing these :)

I have short dark brown hair and brown eyes. I have pearl earrings currently. I am 5'6. I am also ftm and gay. He/him pronouns

I don’t really know much about romance, but I try. I don’t like that much physical affection but I do like praise, as I said before, and gifts. I love giving gifts to people.

Hi! Can I just say that from the sound of it, I absolutely adore your clothing style!

As for your ship... I ship you with;

Lewis Nixon

Ps. the gif above is mine!

Ok.. hear me out, Nix is an ENTP (you cannot argue with me on this). And if the INTJ x ENTP fandom has a million fans, I am one of them. If the INTJ x ENTP fandom has one fan, it is me. If the INTJ x ENTP fandom has zero fans, I have been assassinated.

Awkward introvert meets charming extrovert, cute cute cute match! You said that you are stubborn and awkward when talking to people. Well, guess what? Lewis will persist and he will get you to talk. I think, when first meeting, this also would be the first thing you two note about each other. Nix has this charm around him and he will use it to try and get you to talk.

Following that, you say you have a knack for things doing well, even if it is your first time. I think Nix would really admire this, but also be able to help you when that drive for doing well turns into stress. I feel like he has this aura and attitude of light-heartedness that can help with comforting stress around perfection.

Where that light-heartedness may clash though, is when his communication isn't as clear as you may need it to be sometimes. However, I also feel like Lewis is the type of person you can just say that to his face and he will be mindful of it.

Also!! Nix's love language (in my eyes) is definitely partially words of affirmation and once he's noticed your giddiness whenever he compliments you or makes any positive comment, this man will go ham. Expect love-filled words all day with him.

Which means that when you feel down, he will be there to simply hold you, if that is what you need. When you have slumps that last days, he'll check in on you often by just placing his hand somewhere and asking you how you are doing and telling you that you are doing ok, and if you are not, he'll use his words to make sure you would feel at least somewhat ok. Knowing that you do not enjoy physical affection as much, his touches would be small and short. I think Nix has a very low-key way of showing that he cares and it is understood between you two that he has.

Lewis would absolutely join in with you in doing things just because they're funny. He has this positive carelessness around him that would definitely add to that. Your t-shirt collection would probably eventually grow and grow and every once in a while, Nix would bring home the most outrageous t-shirts from places that have you wondering where they came from. Like the time he somehow found a t-shirt from an obscure convention that was held years ago in some small town on the other side of the world. He thought it was hilarious and wore it for days.

Speaking of clothes, Nixon loves your style for several reasons. Reason one; it's attractive as hell. Reason two; it means you can steal most, if not all of his clothes and they all look good on you. And, Nixon happens to absolutely be smitten with you wearing his clothes. He'd probably make you wear his aviators more than he wears them himself.

Another thing that matches well is your sense of humor. I think Nix's humor is like yours, dark, sarcastic and ironic. When you two are around others, that shared humor are little moments of bonding. You two laughing about a joke either of you two made. It makes Nix smile for the entire day.

Nixon would not mind your lack of knowledge about romance at all. I think it ties back to his general sense of light-heartedness and easy going stuff. To him, romance does not have to be this one, clear and graspable thing. It comes naturally and he is more than happy to share romantic moments with you. And whenever you come to him with things to gift him, he is in Heaven and falls a little more in love with each time you do.

Generally, this relationship would be filled with so much gentle love.

Hello! I have a ship request :)

I have short dark brown hair and brown eyes. I am 5'6. I am also ftm and gay.

I am currently learning German and Ukrainian. I play the cello (I would say that I'm pretty decent at it). I want to join the paratroopers soon and maybe get a doctorate degree in the medical field. I like writing books, reading, and drawing. I am very interested in history mainly the 20th century. I also know how to cross-country ski and love the winter.

Take all the time you need to get to this and have a good day :)

Hello dear Anon! Thank you so much for your patience 🥰 this semester has been busy and I really appreciate it!

I ship you with . . .

Skip Muck!

Listen! It's the ✨vibes✨

He's a fun guy! You sound like a fun guy! I just think the whole relationship would be super fun 🤭

You meet in the paratrooper program, for sure

The second that he approaches you, you would just know that the connection between you is something special

Your darker sense of humor with his lighter one would just balance each other out so nicely. Like, you're both having fun and cracking jokes, but they're on completely different ends of the spectrum, which makes it interesting and keeps you guys on your toes

Skip is a very adventurous person, and because you're into so many different things, I feel like every day would be an adventure with you two. Even if you just want to stay at home and read some history books, he would enjoy just spending time with you

Speaking of ✨vibes✨, as someone with ADHD, I feel like Skip probably has it too? (Just me? Okay lol) So since it's hard for him to get past steps in certain tasks, it works really well because you remember details so well. He is so efficient with you around to help him plan things out

For as much as he likes to joke around, he can also be serious. He's a words of affirmation dude, for sure, so when he casually tells you that he loves you or cares about you, you can be sure that he's being genuine 💖

Skip would think that your fashion sense is so cool! Catch him out here stealing your jackets and cool t-shirts (And he'd be cool with it if you wanted to steal his clothes, too)

Since you keep so many things in your pockets, I feel like he would make it a running joke between you two. Waiting until you're out with friends and then asking you for something insanely specific. The rest of Easy is like "there's no way - Oh! Okay, never mind. Wait, how did you fit that in your pocket?"

The laughs you two get out of it would never get old

Thank you for the request, Anon! I hope you like this 💕🕊️

Hello love! I got a notification and saw you were doing matchups and I'd like to join 😈 (I hope I didn't misread and it's already open)

The Fandom I'd like a match-up for is Tokyo Revengers. My pronouns are She/Her and my gender preference is male and I'd like it to be romantic please <3.

Some positive traits: I'm overall very friendly and easy to approach. I'm very patient and slow to anger. I'm very empathetic and sympathetic, I have a very easy time putting myself in others' shoes and rarely judge others. I'm a good listener and very attentive to others' needs. I tend to remember little things about the people I love and if I'm passionate about something I will always put my 110% in. I'm a very not judgemental person and I think it's fair to say I'm quite mature as well. I can be spontaneous and go along with spontaneous ideas very well but I'm not impulsive. I'm also overall polite and will be very talkative with the right people.

Some negative traits: I have a bad habit of being a people pleaser and have an overall hard time saying no unless I'm asked something blatantly dangerous. I'm a big daydreamer so I often have my head in the clouds which can make me less attentive to my surroundings and may lead the to zone out every now and then. I'm a procrastinator and when I don't really like something I'll leave it until the very last moment to do. And lastly I tend to beat around the bush when I have to say something negative to someone or about someone to them or at least take a while to at least get to it because I try to sugarcoat it as much as possible. So... Basically not very straightforward.

My mbti and enneagram: INFP-T 9w1

And I don't know if you also wanted zodiac signs but I'll add it in anyway:

Sun: Taurus Moon: Pisces Rising: Cancer Venus: Pisces

Some of my hobbies:

-Ballet

-Playing piano and bass guitar

-Writing both books, poetry and songs

-Reading books

-Listening to music

-Visiting museums (I like both art and history)

-Swimming

-Sewing

-Cooking and baking

-Watching both Vintage movies and classic Disney movies

-Going around petting stray cats

-Recently I've been learning how to knit

Other random things about me:

I like animals. I like to go on unnecessarily long walks. Mind of embarrassing but sometimes when I'm nervous to go somewhere for whatever reason I have this little plushie I take with me in my bag. I collect pink snack packages?? It might've not been delicious but at least the packaging is cute 😪. I like pink in general. An unsung love language of mine is just feeding people? It ties in with my hobby for sure but with me you'll never go hungry. I like dressing up and doing my makeup. My favorite season is winter and I love love ice skating. I'm very affectionate both verbally and physically and will tone it down depending on what the person I'm with is comfortable with. Sometimes when I laugh too hard I snort a little :/, I can dance a Viennese waltz My favorite Disney princesses are Cinderella and Aurora and both are actually quite similar to me. One night when I was younger I decided to teach myself 1800s etiquette and now old ladies love me. When I'm excited about something I bounce on my toes a little, I'm adept at flower language and every summer I get up early to pick some pretty ones and press them, only one of each though. I can sing a little but don't expect a power ballad out of me :(. I knit my neighbours cat a little hat. I like exploring local markets for trinkets. I cry pretty easily. I think that's everything I can think of at the moment.

I hope that's enough!

Thank you so much <3

-🦢

I have match you up with…

Manjiro Sano!

- his carefree nature + You = a relationship full of adventures. Y’all will just never be bored with each other

- Expect him to tease you when you snort but he does it lovingly and think it’s cute, he thinks everything that you do is cute—

- he would love to go ice skating with you in the winter, just because he has an excuse to hold your hand when skating :)

- he finds you feeding him very enjoyable. What can I say he likes to be taken care of :)

- he will gladly help you knit a hat for your neighbour’s cat, just so he can spend more time with you :D

- but when you do end up crying for whatever reason, he will always be there for you to comfort you with open arms

“There there my princess, is everything all right? Oh just a bad day? Well… would you like to go for a walk with me? It will help you feel better hmm?”

People you want to know more about

Okay, let's do this. Thanks @seimei-chsq for the tag 😌

Hmm, I'm tagging @annainnorth @ereinionlomionar and @doomduck - no need for you to do this, though!

Favourite colour: arguably not a colour, but a non-colour - black

Favourite food: I'm very picky when it comes to food and drinks, so something basic like either schnitzel or a certain type of sour soup. Nope, changed my mind - I've recently tried Mexican food and fell in love with Quesadilla

Song stuck in your head: Right now, Let Me Entertain You by Robbie Williams because I was listening to it today while finishing a post

Last thing you googled: without double-checking, it must be Yuzu related. Yep, "Yuzuru Hanyu quotes". That's because I was working on a page for my bullet journal and needed a motivational, but funny quote. Of course I ended up with "Submit by due date even if it's not complete"

Time: 9:44 PM as I type

Dream trip: Scotland - I love Celtic history and culture. Since I was a kid I wanted to visit countries that these people have inhabited. I first went to Ireland while I was in my next to last year of high school, then I was supposed to go to Scotland in my next to last year of university - but Covid hit (so that was 2020) and my plans got cancelled.

Last book you read: I read two books simultaneously - The Well of Ascension by Brandon Sanderson and Heroes by Stephen Fry. I don't remember which I finished first.

Last book you enjoyed reading: I enjoy reading pretty much every book that I pick up, but the one that I can really truly say "I LOVED IT" most recently is The Secret History by Donna Tartt.

Last book you hated reading: Mansfield Park by Jane Austen. I normally enjoy her books, but this one had some very absurd characters - while this was clearly the intention, I can't stand stupid characters.

Favourite thing to cook/bake: My cooking/baking talents are basically non-existent. Plus (or because of that) I hate cooking, so even when I have to cook, I count the minutes until my food's ready and can get out of the kitchen.

Favourite craft to do in your spare time: Bullet Journaling. It's a habit I picked up in my 2nd year of university and it helped me keep my tasks organized and have a decent schedule. It's a bit useless when I don't have much to do because I end up having so much time I procrastinate. Sometimes I just fill in pages with a certain theme, the most recent being a TenChi-themed one

Most niche dislike: Hehe, I have a lot of things I dislike, but not sure what would be considered niche. Hmm, the sound of heavy footsteps.

Opinion on circuses now and in history: My knowledge of circuses in history is limited to what I have seen in scattered news articles - historically, I know some circus troops were made of people with disabilities that were shunned by society. Not sure what opinion to have on that - society sucked then and sucks now. About nowadays circuses - my mom used to take me to the circus as a kid whenever it rolled in town - I remember seeing elephants and snakes and being SO HAPPY that I could see them. I wasn't terrified of clowns, but can't say I liked them much either. When I grew up and understood how maltreated circus animals were, I completely hated the circus. Then I found Cirque du Soleil which is something else and, well, I do enjoy those acrobats. I have been to one of their shows and I want to go again.

Do you have a sense of direction and if not, what's the worst way you got lost: I believe I do, however, if I keep my nose in the GPS, I will never be able to find my way if I don't look around. I also have the bad habit of looking at my feet while walking if I'm with a person that knows the way and I don't - it's not helpful when I have to find my way back to places. Anyway, subway passages and lines confuse me - I managed to get lost in one passage in London a few years back during rush hour (I was visiting). I got separated from my group of friends and was convinced I was going in the right direction. Yeah... we ended up in opposite London ends and my end was not the good one.

#this was fun to do #I'm feeling much better and energized these days #random #dash games #no need to participate if you don't feel like it/don't want to

🪩 and ✍️ for writing ask :D

Sorry for the late answer omg I shared that ask and immediately boarded a plane so I've been busy since T-T

🪩Do you have any "good" writing habits you want to cultivate?

Other than actually writing lol? Probably start writing early when it comes to fic exchanges or any sort of event where the fic needs to be submitted by a certain date. I loved writing in the two (2) exchanges I've been in so far but as a chronic procrastinator I was definitely sweating bullets towards the end bc I was still finishing the story MINUTES before the deadline so... I should probably start earlier next time :'D

✍️Which stat matters most to you (if at all!): subscriptions, kudos/favourites, comments, bookmarks, word count, or hits?

I've always written for 'myself' so as long as a story is published to my personal liking, I'm pretty satisfied! That's not to say that I'm not obsessed with validation too lol; literally any stat makes me happy because it makes me realise that people have Read My Work!! I love comments a lot tho bc it makes me realise that people have Read My Work and....Liked It??? Enough to leave a few words??? It makes my heart swell every time. But really, even just a hit makes me :D because I'm always so happy to know that I've contributed to a fandom.

#thank you sm for the askkkk <3333 #and sorry again for the lateness :'O #syrup asks #syrup writing

im soo anxious today and i dont know why i feel so bad. Im going to write down all the things im anxious about or just things taking up too much room in my brain, cause I heard that helps. then maybe I'll make a plan.

Current anxieties:

Moving back to school next week after a year and a half. I knew i was leaving sometime mid-january. I know that it is now January. Yet it still comes as a surprise to me that I only have one week before I leave. Going back to school has been on my mind like 24/7, how did I let it sneak up on me?? Dont get me wrong, I'm so ready to get out of this house, but im not ready to say bye to my dog yet :(

Anxiety about my hair: I have pretty severe hair thinning from telogen effluvium. You can see my scalp. I've been hacking at it myself, keeping it short for the past year. Its uneven and choppy, which is fine when I'm holed up in my room everyday. But now I want to get it cut by professionals. I've been meaning to schedule an appointment for that, but never got to it. Im kind of embarrassed to even have someone see the state of my head. And now I only have a week. I'm hoping that cutting it a bit shorter will make it fluffier and harder to see my scalp, but what if it doesn't? In the 10 years I've been suffering with hair loss, this is the worst its ever been. And of course this is the point when I really, really, desperately want to make new friends and possibly even a relationship. But that's gonna be a bit difficult when the back of my head looks like gollum's.

Acne: For some reason, my acne has gotten really bad in the past few months??? Painful, cystic acne like I've never had before. of course, right before i make my debut back into society for the first time in nearly two years lol. And with my hair super short now, all my acne is on FULL display. I need some good skincare and color correcting makeup.

Me and my friend (T) want to "hang out sometime before break ends" but that's the extent of our plans. I LOVE her and of course I want to hang out with her, but at the same time, I dont want to hang out with anyone. I dont want to leave the house. Im bald and covered in painful acne, and im a ball of anxiety for no reason. But I feel bad because I do wanna hang out. And also because she is always the one who reaches out to me, not the other way around. I dont think im being a very good friend..

Dentist. I really need to get to the densist. I haven't gotten a cleaning in about 2 years... I brush my teeth everyday and floss most days, but I'm still prone to cavities for some reason. Recently, my crown has come off. I just pop it back in and it seems fine, but i know that's gotta get fixed. Thats another appointment I've been procrastinating. Especially with the acne that tends to bubble up around my mouth and lips, its sometimes painful to even open my mouth, let alone keep my mouth stretched open for 30 minutes. Also its embarrassing and ugly and i dont want the dentist looking so closely at my nasty pimples. But i really need a cleaning and to get that crown fixed and I only have a week left. Can you even schedule a dentist appointment the week before?

Apartment. Housing told me I won't know my housing assignment until the first week of January. I have no idea where on campus I'm gonna be living. Roommates or no roommates? One of the campus apartments comes unfurnished. Hopefully i dont get that one but what if i do? I move in next week, will i need to buy a bed frame? a desk? idunno?? Well, i probably won't get the unfurnished one, so im sure it'll be fine. I just hope i have no roommates.

Packing. I need to pack. Packing is always incredibly overwhelming for me. Its alot to think about. I always take my bass to school, but I've been playing guitar more and now I want too take both. I need a case/bag for the guitar cause I dont have one. I feel like my dad is gonna try to make me take one or the other, but i really want both. Im always scared of packing too much or not enough stuff or forgetting something important. I should start now so i dont have to stress so much about it.

clothes. All of my clothes are in a big pile on the bottom bunk. I need to wash all of them to get the bugs and dust off. Also need to pick more consciously what i want to bring, since most of that stuff i dont even wear anymore. I really need new clothes too. Most of my wardrobe is stuff from highschool. But new clothes are expensive :(

money. i have maybe $2000 in my account. Im sad because I really wanted to save all my money to put into renovating my van, but that didnt happen. I dont like asking my parents for money. I'd like to keep $1500 minimum pillow in my account at all times. That should be enough for groceries at ~$120 a month, but no spending money. Which sucks cause I really want to buy clothes and skincare and makeup and expensive rosemary oil for my hair. And i want to have friends this time around. You typically need a bit of spending money to hang out with friends; grabbing lunch/coffee, bowling, staying in and ordering a pizza, etc.

Job. I applied for a job on campus for spending money. On the application it asks you to mark the times you are available. This always felt weird to me that my boss would know exactly when im available. Maybe that's just a me issue. So on the application, i moreso marked the hours of my preferred shifts haha. That was a few weeks ago, and the manager finally got back to me, telling me my availability didn't align with what they needed. Thats totally on me :P oops. I think they will allow me to resend my availability though, I'll be less stingy with my time this time around. Though I am scared of getting stuck with late night or weekend shifts.

My roommate from when I was last at school left some of their things when they moved out. I was the last to move out, so i grabbed their stuff with the intention of bringing it back when we live together the next semester. I forgot to mention it to them. I ended up not going back and now i just have some of their stuff. Its a saucepan, a teacup and dessert plate, and a brita pitcher. I feel really bad about everytime i think abut it. Its been nearly two years, so I dont know if i should message them about this. I think they graduated already? but what if they didnt and i see them around campus? I should just message them and apologize and offer to mail their stuff back.

prescriptions. I need to change pharmacies so I can get my prescriptions while at school. that, or have my parents mail it to me once a month.

For the new year, I meant to write down all of my goals/things i want to do, like getting an internship, and making friends. and then write a detailed plan for them. But i haven't gotten to that yet and its just been another thing taking up space in my brain.

my phone camera stopped working a while ago. I didnt think my phone was that old (its a Samsung galaxy s7), but then my favorite alarm app stopped working. I tried to uninstall and reinstall, but then I couldn't download it cause my phone is too old 😭. I need to get a new phone. Hopefully with money from my job that I'll for sure get after giving them better availability lol.

My timeblocking schedule. I haven't been sticking to it as good as i'd have hoped. Some days (most days), i just really dont feel like studying calc or hackerrank and would much rather keep learning react. Those other topics have been neglected and im getting anxious about being super behind in my university physics course because its been years since the last time i calculated an integral. I'll take a whole day to refresh my calc skills, and that'll hopefully get me on track.

The other issue is that i dont get up as early as i hoped, or i stay on my phone for too long, and end up starting my day later than planned. And then I'll just say, "I'll get started after lunch/after i walk the dog", so my day really starts at 2pm instead of 8am. The other part of it is not blocking out days like Christmas, new years, new years day; days that I knew i probably would not be working. Then I don't work those days, even though work is scheduled, and when i come back i feel off schedule. If i cant follow this super easy schedule, how will i do will a busy schedule of classes and homework and work shifts?

Theres more i think, but im tired of writing now. I do feel a bit better. That could've been the adderall i took before this though.

oh also i think our house is in foreclosure. parents have been not-so-quietly yelling about it early in the mornings. I know there's nothing I can really do about this one, but its still stressful.

Over the past twenty four hours, I've attempted to write this post in my head. When you're a writer, this is a bad idea, because whatever words make their way to the inevitable edit don't seem as great. However, I'm going to put that aside. Also, I can't believe that it has been almost a month since my last post. I only know that because tomorrow begins session/round three of Ibrance, Alas, what has been in my head and brought me here:

In 1999, my Mom-Mom was determined to see my sister and I confirmed. I'm an Episcopalian and making your confirmation is the Catholic equivalent of everything important. So, my soul was on the line and I couldn't disappoint her or damn my soul for eternity (despite my understanding that baptism would provide the forgiveness of my sins. I guess that needs renewal in your teen years). To help learn the fundamentals of the lessons I needed to understand to successfully accomplish Confirmation, I would go to youth group each Sunday either before or after church to get my extra dose of God. This particular year, one of the activities we, as a group, were signed up for the AIDS Walk in Philadelphia.

There wasn't much to do to as a participant except to fundraise a particular dollar amount to earn your t-shirt.

I remember standing in lines outside of the museum for registration and I must of met the fundraising requirement because I received a t-shirt and tiny me had an XS and was swimming in that. I remember waiting in line with others in youth group, hearing the key note speaker, but not really paying too much attention. Undoubtedly, due to my age and my greater excitement of standing with and then the possibility of spending the morning goofing off with my crush as we walked the course; he had the same idea, only with his crush (hence the term crush). Beyond that, I remember the walk, the t-shirt, the failed flirting attempt, and being slightly glad to have had a true reason for procrastinating my homework.

This was my first experience with a 5K. Lackluster. A requirement. Underwhelming.

Fast forward about 15 years and I was determined to run a 5K on my own just to say that I could. It was a 4th of July "Fun Run" the Red, White and Zoo at the Philadelphia Zoo. I spent the day wandering about the zoo looking at all of the animals especially the Hippopotamuses, or is it Hippopotami?? Any trip to the zoo for me will include the Hippo's (they are my undoubtedly favorite animal in case you didn't know). One year, I was gifted a behind the scenes experience to feed Cindy and Una and I am still convinced that nothing with top that experience (Thanks. Dad!). Overall, the "Fun Run" was terrible, the course was cut short due to rain and a flooding in particular zoo sections. So, my first 5K was only 2.5 miles. I felt like a failure but it was supposed to be for fun. So I shrugged my shoulders and vowed I'd do it "next" time. This began my several year foray into running. And my roommate avidly supported me. I’ll never forget my sign and balloon after my failed 5K which gave me more motivation to keep going.

Despite the imperfect race, I found the Bonnie J. Addario Lung Cancer Foundation 5K, which for several years I did hard work to fund raise (organizing Dine & Donate’s with local restaurants) and participate. As the years went on, my reason for races and the impact I wanted to make became stronger. Especially for this organizations that were close to my heart, like BJALCF, as they did much work for lung cancer patients, which most who know me, know me Pop-Pop succumbed to.

After needing physical therapy for sore and improperly strengthened IT Bands (and I went back to school), I hung up my running shoes.

Many may be asking why I’m giving my life’s history on 5K’s, but I have one coming up for me. For my disease. For my own program who has helped me. Unite for Her will be holding their 5K on September 23rd in West Chester. I have a group of friends to walk along with me and I feel overly supported in the best way. I have also pushed hard for my fundraising and have been so appreciative to everyone who has donated (there’s still time)! This 5K feels like the most important I’ve ever participated in because of my diagnosis and because it supports the organization that supports women in my condition. They offer a way for women to take some charge in their treatment path, offering eastern medicine practices like Reiki and Acupuncture. I want to help this foundation as much as they’ve helped me. I’ve recognized how important it is to me to do what I can to support the organization. So if my history of 5K’s helps, then I’m glad I rambled through them. Thanks for reading and as always the support!!
