I love looking back at media I was into as a kid and going “Oh, that was a JTTW reference” (Aka Miraculous Ladybug’s Monkey King)

Map Sequence

You know those animated travel maps in movies that let you follow the characters’ route? Well, my friend and I seem to be stuck in one of those.

Together we opened the biggest book in the library, got sucked in, and now it’s telling us about the cultures of so many different places, so very far apart. But we’re never really landing on the map, seeing everything from the sky without getting immersed.

The lights shine up at us in different colours, the rivers draw patterns we’ve never considered. In a way, this ongoing map sequence is comfortable. We can’t see the dotted lines behind us or ahead. We roll with it, and we’ve both reached a point at which we’re no longer certain whether we consider the eventual destination an escape or some lurking trap. If the book ever lets us go, we will know a little more about a lot of things, but will we really have learned?

The map keeps moving, and we continue to catch up.

You and E!milo already look like a married couple, so I'll get you a dress or suit depending on what you want to be, look you can't complain at least I give you options.

"We do not look like a married couple; where are you guys getting that from?? I'm not marrying him or anyone! He's more like a nanny."

Hello! I’m looking for fic where Steve saves Eddie from the upside down and Eddie is half conscious and delirious due to the blood loss. At one point he kisses Steve and calls him “paladin”. Steve notes how cold his lips and hands are. Eddie proceeds to pass out and Eddie doesn’t remember the kiss but Steve does. I read it on ao3 and it was a completed fic. Thanks!

Request 398! Send me an ask if you recognize this fic!

We got 7” of snow. Not unusual for April. I’m a little pissed because I wanted to go for a walk, but when you are elderly, and have a track record of falling on ice/slippery spots and breaking yourself, and have crappy insurance . . . hmph.
