Wife you truly have a gift
So. As of this past week I am officially done with Semiology training, which means that, technically, I'm capacitated to take a patient's history, come up with basic diferential diagnoses and write down their evolution during their stay at a hospital. Do I believe that? Oh, hell no. But that does mean that this past year I've talked to a lot of patients and heard even more stories about them from my professors. And my mind is a machine that turns random knowledge into Hilda content, so... hyperspecific canva presentation under the cut. Enjoy
#LAURENS ONE SENT ME#ACCURATE#SHE WOULD#and she’s probably being dragged to the ER aswell#these are all so accurate#johannas is so funny and so real#Astrid is me#god I love all of these#OH THE AUSCULATE QUESTINO! I’m not a medical person so idk how common it is to say that in those fields#but ik that a majority of people would just say ‘’to listen to their heartbeat’’#I’ve never heard the word ausculate before and I gotta say. top tier word. very nice to say. very fancy#also god Anders is spot on. fuck that guy fr#I’m curious if you have any real life examples that would fit Lauren or any of the ocs tbh#but tbf. I don’t think anything is more accurate than her example#she’d show up actively dying and be like ‘’haha lol my mum dragged me here you know how worrisome parents can be’’#she has only ever voluntarily gone to the hospital one time and it was after literal years of procrastinating and a lot of encouragement#every other occasion? a family member dragged her kicking and screaming and/or an ambulance had to be called#EDIT googled the ausculate thing jsut to be extra sure and yeah I think in your field wifey they’d use that term#but anyone who isn’t a medical person (or if you were a medical person talking to a patient or talking casually)#you’d just say you’re listening to their heartbeat or lungs or whatever

One Dress a Day Challenge
November: Grey Redux
Crazy Rich Asians / Gemma Chan as Astrid Young
The designer, Mary E. Vogt, commented about this dress in an interview: "I had some beautiful dresses that Ralph Russo very generously lent us. They were gorgeous, and the director was excited about them, too. I showed them to Gemma and for that particular scene — the one where she finds out her husband is cheating on her — she said, I want to be really vulnerable and I don’t want to wear anything too fabulous.
"At first, I was disappointed. I said, 'Are you sure?' But when I thought about it, yes, of course it makes more sense for this scene. It’s about her vulnerability, not some outfit. I had an elegant, gray 1930’s Ralph Lauren dress. It was very simple, yet it worked. You looked at her — at her face and her expression. You weren’t distracted by three-dimensional butterflies or anything wild on the dress."
A side view reveals that the dress fastens with a zipper on the right side. It also has an ornament at the waist, which appears to be in the shape of a dragonfly.

the world was jamestown. that was what lauren had learned after the outbreak. the world had given him a thirteen year long reprieve from the cult that he grew up in, allowing him to return to england for a few years before he left for washington and its comfortable rot. it allowed him to flourish in his career, particularly unctuous to the right and the wrong people. it allowed him to be married for a few years, it even allowed him to be (somewhat) happy, before he was reminded of the world’s true nature. though the circumstances and the scenery had changed, the dead now walking, it was just like jamestown: a prison. james crone was no longer around for lauren to follow, but he could make a god out of his camp leader. he made gods out of senators before, hadn’t he?
a part of him wondered if perhaps he should’ve made a god out of himself—it would be within his birthright, wouldn’t it? he was the first son. he was set to inherit jamestown if his father were to ever be destroyed by their enemies (though their scripture soon changed to james crone never being harmed or dying at all, a few years before lauren had escaped). sometimes he had to wonder if that was what the world had been trying to tell him: it was time to take up the mantle. surely his father had died. lauren hadn’t believed that his father was a god anymore, though he occasionally had moments of doubt, so it was likely that his father was dead. it was likely that jamestown had fallen. or perhaps there was a small chance that it was still standing, remote enough that the members of the compound truly believed america and england had destroyed each other with nuclear bombs, yet not a bit of ruin befell them. the point being that sometimes lauren felt the urge to be a god.
not yet, though. maybe not ever. though he was always worried about his own self-interest, willing to fuck anyone over in order to get ahead, lauren preferred someone to hide behind. he liked to be able to blame his deeds on someone else, whether good or bad in nature. it was nice to have that sort of shield since his childhood of growing up in a cult didn’t lend him a lot of sympathy anymore. not since people had mostly lost interest in his family’s story. true crime was a hungry creature that could never be satiated, eternally growing bored with its latest repast and searching for its next. the public used to gawk at and pity the crones that escaped, but they couldn’t do much with escapees; they wanted the cult they came from. documentary crews occasionally traveled to the bolivian jungle only to be chased off by cult members or the locals alike, or podcasters that would routinely reach out to lauren for a comment on their investigative series on cults as if there was still any meat on the carcass. he would return their request for comment or an interview with cease and desist letters, but some new podcast or netflix documentary would pop up and he’d have to send another, repeating his refusals all over again. a cycle that never seemed to end.
well, it sure ended eventually. society fell shortly after the dead rose. washington held on as long as it could, but sank into darkness quicker than lauren had expected. it might’ve been luck or coincidence that lauren was out of the capital when the outbreak hit, but he was thankful all the same. he had originally been irritated that his wife had moved out and returned to her parents’ house in wyoming, but it worked out for the better when he had flown out to try and convince candace to come back to him (the high society folks in d.c. were starting to notice he was showing up to events and dinners dateless) just as armageddon came. it led to him walking down the street that day, careful to weave between cars and avoid attracting the attention of any undead. it led to him being suddenly assaulted with the sound of someone banging on the window glass to his left. instantly, his head snapped to the source, only seeing a flash of blonde hair and fists flying. that was certainly… odd. lauren looked around, assuming the person was alerting him to a horde or some other danger further ahead, but found nothing of consequence.
standing there, one foot hovering slightly in the air in the abandoned practice of walking, he gave a quizzical quirk of his brow before he simply walked to the storefront and opened the door. “what are you trying to do, attract the attention of every dead and living thing in hearing distance?” lauren asked, though he made sure to keep his tone somewhat jovial and friendly, like an older brother chastising a wayward sibling. the girl seemed like she had seen a ghost, however, staring at him as if she recognized him—unlikely unless she was obsessed with cults or american politics. proper cakey, he thought.
how long had it been since astrid had seen her brother? locked away in rapunzel's tower, she'd never imagined she'd make it past the brambles. a scared, white rabbit in the open. she lived a charmed life compared to the relative poverty of the other members of jamestown, but it did not come without a price. when the walls finally fell and her father was presumably eaten instead of saved like a god or some other prized thing, she had run like a rabbit.
astrid's charmed life hadn't let her down even in hell. a place that burned like she'd been told, but that came with a freedom both terrifying and liberating. she'd been rescued by a gruff old man and their journey had led them far from bolivia and into the chaos of the united states.
she had known lauren was free and living somewhere out in the world, but she had never imagined she'd see him again. once a documentary crew had come to jamestown and one of the members had shown her a newspaper article about her brother with a photo. all grown up, she never would've recognized him otherwise. she'd hidden the clipping and studied it often, but it hadn't survived the trip with her. it didn't matter; she didn't need it.
the man outside of the clothing store she and juan had been scavening was her brother. lauren crone in the flesh. stalking down the street with the gait of a boy she could remember. just right outside of the glass. stunned, she stood there until he was close enough that she knew he must be real and she reached out, pounding on the glass between them. would he know her as she knew him? would he stop anyway because she was a survivor and, like all survivors, there was a desire to be known again? she called his name, though she knew he could not hear her. "lauren!" @someotherdog
#thewolfruns#* LAUREN CRONE / narrative .#* LAUREN CRONE / thread / astrid .#* HELL STATE / verse .#don't match length obviously!!!!!!#but i had to google west country british slang for this. do not ever claim i am not a committed writer!#vocab list word count: two (2). can you guess them? probably bc you do every other time lol

one thing I love about Hilda is that she's canonically a REALLY annoying vegetarian. like, Johanna has to warn Astrid that they NEED to put these fish back before Hilda catches them, otherwise she'll prolly eat THEM for dinner. she finds out that some seemingly random people put a fishing net in the water and judges them SO hard for it. I just know that if she was invited round for Christmas dinner and whatever family was hosting had a turkey on the table, she'd sit there with her arms crossed and refuse to eat, and go off on whoever made it as if the personally killed the damn bird. Johanna just lets it happen, she's lost this argument so many times, there's no point.

What I Read: May
Since I find things to read from other folks’ recommendations, figured I’d start keeping lists myself if anyone sees anything that strikes their fancy.
Fiction
Perfume & Pain by Anna Dorn
4.25/5 || Excellent, homage to lesbian pulp, main character is a disaster of her own making.
Having recently moved both herself and her formidable perfume bottle collection into a tiny bungalow in Los Angeles, mid-list author Astrid Dahl finds herself back in the Zoom writer’s group she cofounded, Sapphic Scribes, after an incident that leaves her and her career lightly canceled. But she temporarily forgets all that by throwing herself into a few sexy distractions—like Ivy, a grad student researching 1950s lesbian pulp who smells like metallic orchids, or her new neighbor, Penelope, who smells like patchouli.
Bad Summer People by Emma Rosenblum
3/5 || It’s fine. Nothing memorable, but an easy beach read.
Jen Weinstein and Lauren Parker rule the town of Salcombe, Fire Island every summer. They hold sway on the beach and the tennis court, and are adept at manipulating people to get what they want. Until a body is discovered, face down, off the side of the boardwalk.
Very Bad Company by Emma Rosenblum
3.25/5 || Very readable, decent if not memorable mystery, another easy beach read.
Every year, executives at the trendy tech startup Aurora gather the company’s top employees for an exclusive retreat in Miami. When one executive vanishes after the first night, the disappearance has the potential to derail the future of the company’s sale and cost everyone on the team millions. Now the team must continue the charade–partaking in team building exercises, group brainstorms, dinners–in order to keep the future of Aurora afloat amid all the fatal speculations.
The Heiress Gets a Duke by Harper St. George
3/5 || Easy, quick, The Gilded Age but the main character insists on modern feminism
American heiress August Crenshaw has aspirations. But unlike her peers, it isn't some stuffy British Lord she wants wrapped around her finger--it's Crenshaw Iron Works, the family business. When it's clear that August's outrageously progressive ways render her unsuitable for a respectable match, her parents offer up her younger sister to the highest entitled bidder instead.
Nonfiction
Surprise, Kill, Vanish: The Secret History of CIA Paramilitary Armies, Operators, and Assassins by Annie Jacobsen
4.5/5 || Highly recommend. Engaging, eye-opening, and a fuck ton of ‘…oh no…’
Despite Hollywood notions of last-minute rogue-operations and external secret hires, covert action is actually a cog in a colossal foreign policy machine, moving through, among others, the Bureau of Intelligence and Research, the House and Senate Select Committees. When diplomacy fails and overt military action is not feasible, the President often calls on the Special Activities Division, the most secretive and lowest-profile branch of the CIA. It is this paramilitary team that undertakes dramatic and little-known assignments: hostage rescues, sabotage, and, of course, assassinations.
Unruly: A History of England's Kings and Queens by David Mitchell
4/5 || Very interesting, but written in a tone you’ll either mesh with or not.
Taking us right back to King Arthur (spoiler: he didn't exist), David tells the founding story of post-Roman England right up to the reign of Elizabeth I (as the monarchy began to lose its power). It's a tale of narcissists, inadequate self-control, excessive beheadings, middle-management insurrection, uncivil wars, and at least one total Cnut, as the English evolved from having their crops nicked with menaces by the thug with the largest armed gang to bowing and paying taxes to a divinely anointed King.
The Pentagon's Brain: An Uncensored History of DARPA, America's Top-Secret Military Research Agency by Annie Jacobsen
4/5 || Interesting, but drags a bit in the second half. Again, so much ‘…oh no…’
No one has ever written the history of the Defense Department's most secret, most powerful, and most controversial military science R&D agency. In the first-ever history about the organization, New York Times bestselling author Annie Jacobsen draws on inside sources, exclusive interviews, private documents, and declassified memos to paint a picture of DARPA, or "the Pentagon's brain," from its Cold War inception in 1958 to the present.
