And this is why I fucking hand draft out all my fics! I left for ten minutes max and my stupid computer decided to update automatically, which it's not supposed to do, and lost all my progress!

I just so defeated.. I was on such a roll and then that happened....

[sojourntime-aux]

definitely the worst/funniest eye contact experience I ever had was about nine years ago, on a roof in a foreign country, too drunk to stand up and trapped in the company of a guy I’d fought in the street earlier that day

I was convinced he was going to instigate a rematch that I was too compromised to win, but also I was very unwell and unafraid to die, so I gave him a piece of my mind and rattled off a detailed list of everything I’d ever thought was wrong with him.

he didn’t reply—just stared me down, wordless, expressionless, cold unblinking eyes in the darkness.

a thought surfaced from the depths of my brain, washing ashore like a globster: this is exactly like wolves. this is a dominance display. a challenge. hold his gaze; do not break eye contact. keep your eyes open and relaxed to show that you are not concerned with his threat… too wide will show fear and submission, too narrow will suggest violence.

I held his gaze.

he moved forward, stalking towards me across the roof.

just like wolves, I thought.

he approached slowly, like he was moving underwater, or through a dream.

this is literally exactly like wolves, I thought.

he came closer.

wolves, my brain insisted.

closer still.

you’re handling this properly for sure.

uncomfortably close.

only when the tip of his nose was physically pressed against mine like fucking Marty McFly and his school principal did my brain finally admit that maybe, just maybe, this was NOT like wolves, and that maybe half-remembered dubious information I’d read in a kind of racist book about wolves once when I was nine years old was not applicable to my current situation.

then his lips pressed against mine and I realized that there are, in fact, other reasons adults make prolonged eye contact that really have nothing to do with wolf dominance displays.

may or may not be stalking the glitch the game tags in order to gently doot people towards Odd Giants, which is an ongoing effort at a reboot (this lot have a functional alpha n a discord n a patreon and everything). Whether or not you wanna check it out, take it easy <3

I actually have a side blog for my odd giants posts already!!! I play off and off when I can, but check out sojourn-oddling for any stray posts over there! Glitch was a family affair back in the day and we've all been playing odd giants again together as well and dragging all our friends into it as well. It been nice to run into people we haven't seen since glitch shut down as well.

Glitch will always hold a special place in my heart, but odd giants is truly something special and a great successor to the game!

If your ever on odd giants my name is Sojourn!

I've only just got my hands on the games (shout out the person who had Splatoon 2 for 17$ Nintendo is shaking in their pixelated boots) but my brain doesn't ever stop so I've already got a cosplay or two in the works for later in the year and some note jotted down for some fanfics. These games grabbed me by the throat and haven't let go, and I don't regret it one bit.

I have a lot of splatoon related projects and stuff, this blog, the gearcheck website, themes and stuff.

So while I'm waiting for my stuff to get sorted out, what splatoon related projects do you have going on (or have finished)? I'll reblog a bunch!

[sojourntime-aux]

I got a copy of Splatoon 2 for 17 dollars and it's over for y'all now

None of your friends into your hyperfixation

Not enough money to buy the source material of your hyperfixation

Watches everything on YouTube about

Doom scrolls in the AO3 tags for it

Feels like you've missed out when people are still actively into it

Hey, it's okay! Everything will be okay.

You know what really bothers me?

Did the horse's wife never get sent to puppet purgatory? Or did holo-prof lie when he said the puppets could only choose one being to go back and solve everything? Or didn't the horse's wife just hitch a ride somehow?

WHY/HOW WAS SHE THERE ALL SEASON TELLING US ABOUT THE SPONSORS?

Listen that hologram is definitely gonna come back. He's still a threat until we see a body.

Being diagnosed with ADHD in my 20s doesn't feel like some mountain I've finally climbed after all these years, it feels like being handed a pretty rock I'm told is supposed to help, except I'm way down in the ravine I fell into years ago and no one cared, and now I have a ravine, and mountain to climb and just a pretty stone to do it with.

[sojourntime-aux]

Listen no matter what happens

I just hope the plague rat atleast gets his dish granted from big apple Steve
