I hope you don’t mind me putting a TBP headcannon, but Vance, Robin and Gwen played tea party.

Gwen puts makeup and costumes on the boys and they talk with a British accent

When Finney and Bruce entered her room, he will see Vance, who has messy blue eyeshadow, messy red lipstick and a purple feather boa, and Robin, who has too much pink blush, smudged mascara and a crooked sun hat, and the baseball boys tried not to laugh at them

Gwen would have so much fun playing dress up with Vance and Robin, both because they have such pretty long hair she can play with lmao

I don’t really know how to draw makeup so I did my best ,’:> but I think the sparkly blue eyeshadow was my favorite part though!

gale weathers had a penchant for finding her way around road blocks. when the reporters were all shooed away from the entrance of the movie premiere, she had managed to sneak around the back of the building in wait. it wasn’t the acting cast she was there for that time but rather the real brain behind the project. gale didn’t think there was anything special about the movie in itself despite all the talk on the internet about it. rumours about it being haunted. she couldn’t have rolled her eyes harder, classic horror movie marketing. but she did think there was much to be said about the director.

the dark alleyway was suddenly flooded with light as the back door swung open. it took a second for gale’s squinted eyes to adjust but when they did, her whole face lit up. there they were, faye ito. “ faye ! ” she called out to catch her attention. there was no point hiding anymore. gale had no intention of ambushing @hauntfilm and part of that was merely because the alleyway only had one exit where gale and her crew conveniently stood planted. she waved at her like an old friend, beaming from ear to ear. with a few quick strides she closed the space between them and immediately shoved the mic in their direction.

“ tell us, how does it feel to see your work on the big screen ? ” a practiced grin was plastered across the reporters face but it didn’t reach her eyes. she wasn’t here for the easy stuff, she never was. but she waited a beat before asking what the audience really wanted to know. “ does any part of the movie, a woman’s descent into madness, come from your personal experience with the death of matthieu rosseau ? ”

Bro I just found a word that better describes this weird feeling I get all the time. It's not dizziness, it's not vertigo, its disequilibrium. It doesn't solve the problem, but hey I know what to tell my doctor next time lmao.

i love sending asks on anon but the worst part of it is that sometimes I just lose the ask completely and never find out what the answer to it was </3

Awwww, sorry I got behind in my askbox. I have a lot going on right now in the real world right now so things are a bit touch and go.

Husband's birthday was yesterday, I'm currently trying to plan a pregnancy, get my husband caregiver hours, get my pain management in order, and try to get every old paint surface and possible hazard covered in a 108 year old house without getting toxic exposure right before having a kid.

How do you apply wallpaper adhesive?

A Step-by-Step Guide to Mastering the Application of Wallpaper Adhesive

Are you ready to start using wallpaper to change the look of your room? Putting down wallpaper glue is an important step that everyone, even those who have done it before, needs to take to make sure the job is done right. The goal of this guide is to show you how to use wallpaper adhesive like a pro, while also showing the high quality and ease of installation that Walloro Wallpaper provides.

Step 1: Get your stuff together

Make sure you have all of the following things before you start:

Good glue for wallpaper Tool for smoothing wallpaper Knife or scissors for work Tape measure For cleaning, use a sponge or a wet cloth. Step 2: Get the surface ready

Make sure the wall you're going to put the wallpaper on is clean, smooth, and free of any dust or dirt. Sand down any rough spots and fill in any holes or cracks if you need to. To get the best results, prime or sand the wall first and let it dry totally before moving on.

Step 3: Mix the glue.

Follow the directions on the package to make the wallpaper glue. Usually, you'll mix water into the powdered glue and stir it until it's smooth and free of lumps. Let the glue work for a few minutes by leaving it alone.

Step 4: Put the glue on it.

Start at the top and work your way down the wall, using a paint roller or brush to spread a thick layer of glue. Make sure to evenly cover the whole area and avoid leaving any dry spots. You should not use too much glue because it can make the wallpaper wet and hard to work with.

Step 5: Put up the wallpaper

When you unroll the wallpaper piece, be careful not to tear or fold it. Line up the top edge of the wallpaper with the top of the wall. Leave a little extra around the sides and ceiling so you can trim it later. Using a wallpaper cleaning tool or brush, work from the middle outwards to get rid of any wrinkles or air bubbles.

Step 6: Cut and Do It Again

Cut off any extra wallpaper around the edges and on the ceiling with a pocket knife or scissors after the first panel is in place. Keep putting down panels and applying adhesive, making sure that the patterns match and that the sides overlap a little to make the finish look smooth.

Step 7: Clean up and have fun.

Once every piece of wallpaper is in place, wipe off any extra glue from the wallpaper's surface with a damp sponge or cloth. Before moving the furniture back into place or adding any decorations, wait until the wallpaper is fully dry.

Walloro wallpaper is high-end and easy to put up.

We know that the quality of your background is just as important as how easy it is to put up as Walloro. That's why our wallpapers are made from high-quality, non-woven materials that are both rich and textured and also very simple to put up. When you buy Walloro Wallpaper, you can change the look of your room without worrying about damage because you know it will last a lifetime and be easy to remove.

“Show, Don’t Tell”…But This Time Someone Explains It

If you’ve ever been on the hunt for writing advice, you've definitely seen the phrase “Show, Don’t Tell.”

Writeblr coughs up these three words on the daily; it’s often considered the “Golden Rule” of writing. However, many posts don't provide an in-depth explanation about what this "Golden Rule" means (This is most likely to save time, and under the assumption that viewers are already informed).

More dangerously, some posts fail to explain that “Show, Don’t Tell” occasionally doesn’t apply in certain contexts, toeing a dangerous line by issuing a blanket statement to every writing situation. 

The thing to take away from this is: “Show, Don’t Tell” is an essential tool for more immersive writing, but don't feel like a bad writer if you can’t make it work in every scenario (or if you can’t get the hang of it!)

1. What Does "Show, Don't Tell" Even Mean?

“Show, Don’t Tell” is a writing technique in which the narrative or a character’s feelings are related through sensory details rather than exposition. Instead of telling the reader what is happening, the reader infers what is happening due to the clues they’ve been shown.

EXAMPLE 1:

Telling: The room was very cold. Showing: She shivered as she stepped into the room, her breath steaming in the air.

EXAMPLE 2:

Telling: He was furious. Showing: He grabbed the nearest book and hurled it against the wall, his teeth bared and his eyes blazing.

EXAMPLE 3 ("SHOW, DON'T TELL" DOESN'T HAVE TO MEAN "WRITE A LOT MORE")

Telling: The room hadn't been lived in for a very long time. Showing: She shoved the door open with a spray of dust.

Although the “showing” sentences don’t explicitly state how the characters felt, you as the reader use context clues to form an interpretation; it provides information in an indirect way, rather than a direct one.

Because of this, “Show, Don’t Tell” is an incredibly immersive way to write; readers formulate conclusions alongside the characters, as if they were experiencing the story for themselves instead of spectating. 

As you have probably guessed, “showing” can require a lot more words (as well as patience and effort). It’s a skill that has to be practiced and improved, so don’t feel discouraged if you have trouble getting it on the first try!

2. How Do I Use “Show, Don’t Tell” ?

There are no foolproof parameters about where you “show” and not “tell" or vice versa; it’s more of a writing habit that you develop rather than something that you selectively decide to employ.

In actuality, most stories are a blend of both showing and telling, and more experienced writers instinctively switch between one and another to cater to their narrative needs. You need to find a good balance of both in order to create a narrative that is both immersive and engaging.

i. Help When Your Writing Feels Bare-Bones/Soulless/Boring

Your writing is just not what you’ve pictured in your head, no matter how much you do it over. Conversations are stilted. The characters are flat. The sentences don’t flow as well as they do in the books you've read. What’s missing?

It’s possibly because you’ve been “telling” your audience everything and not “showing”! If a reader's mind is not exercised (i.e. they're being "spoon-fed" all of the details), your writing may feel boring or uninspired!

Instead of saying that a room was old and dingy, maybe describe the peeling wallpaper. The cobwebs in the corners. The smell of dust and old mothballs. Write down what you see in your mind's eye, and allow your audience to formulate their own interpretations from that. (Scroll for a more in-depth explanation on HOW to develop this skill!)

ii. Add More Depth and Emotion to Your Scenes

Because "Show, Don't Tell" is a more immersive way of writing, a reader is going to feel the narrative beats of your story a lot more deeply when this rule is utilized.

Describing how a character has fallen to their knees sobbing and tearing our their hair is going to strike a reader's heart more than saying: "They were devastated."

Describing blood trickling through a character's fingers and staining their clothes will seem more dire than saying: "They were gravely wounded."

iii. Understand that Sometimes Telling Can Fit Your Story Better

Telling can be a great way to show your characters' personalities, especially when it comes to first-person or narrator-driven stories. Below, I've listed a few examples; however, this list isn't exclusive or comprehensive!

Initial Impressions and Character Opinions

If a character describes someone's outfit as "gaudy" or a room as "absolutely disgusting," it can pack more of a punch about their initial impression, rather than describing the way that they react (and can save you some words!). In addition, it can provide some interesting juxtaposition (i.e. when a character describes a dog as "hideous" despite telling their friend it looks cute).

2. Tone and Reader Opinions

Piggybacking off of the first point, you can "tell, not show" when you want to be certain about how a reader is supposed to feel about something. "Showing" revolves around readers drawing their own conclusions, so if you want to make sure that every reader draws the same conclusion, "telling" can be more useful! For example, if you describe a character's outfit as being a turquoise jacket with zebra-patterned pants, some readers may be like "Ok yeah a 2010 Justice-core girlie is slaying!" But if you want the outfit to come across as badly arranged, using a "telling" word like "ridiculous" or "gaudy" can help set the stage.

3. Pacing

"Show, don't tell" can often take more words; after all, describing a character's reaction is more complicated than stating how they're feeling. If your story calls for readers to be focused more on the action than the details, such as a fight or chase scene, sometimes "telling" can serve you better than "showing." A lot of writers have dedicated themselves to the rule "tell action, show emotion," but don't feel like you have to restrict yourself to one or the other.

iv. ABOVE ALL ELSE: Getting Words on the Page is More Important!

If you’re stuck on a section of your story and just can’t find it in yourself to write poetic, flowing prose, getting words on the paper is more important than writing something that’s “good.” If you want to be able to come back and fix it later, put your writing in brackets that you can Ctrl + F later.

Keeping your momentum is the hardest part of writing. Don't sacrifice your inspiration in favor of following rules!

3. How Can I Get Better at “Show, Don’t Tell”?

i. Use the Five Senses, and Immerse Yourself!

Imagine you’re the protagonist, standing in the scene that you have just created. Think of the setting. What are things about the space that you’d notice, if you were the one in your character’s shoes?

Smell? Hear? See? Touch? Taste?

Sight and sound are the senses that writers most often use, but don’t discount the importance of smell and taste! Smell is the most evocative sense, triggering memories and emotions the moment someone walks into the room and has registered what is going on inside—don’t take it for granted. And even if your character isn’t eating, there are some things that can be “tasted” in the air.

EXAMPLE:

TELLING: She walked into the room and felt disgusted. It smelled, and it was dirty and slightly creepy. She wished she could leave. SHOWING: She shuffled into the room, wrinkling her nose as she stepped over a suspicious stain on the carpet. The blankets on the bed were moth-bitten and yellowed, and the flowery wallpaper had peeled in places to reveal a layer of blood-red paint beneath…like torn cuticles. The stench of cigarettes and mildew permeated the air. “How long are we staying here again?” she asked, flinching as the door squealed shut. 

The “showing” excerpt gives more of an idea about how the room looks, and how the protagonist perceives it. However, something briefer may be more suited for writers who are not looking to break the momentum in their story. (I.e. if the character was CHASED into this room and doesn’t have time to take in the details.)

ii. Study Movies and TV Shows: Think like a Storyteller, Not Just a Writer

Movies and TV shows quite literally HAVE TO "show, and not tell." This is because there is often no inner monologue or narrator telling the viewers what's happening. As a filmmaker, you need to use your limited time wisely, and make sure that the audience is engaged.

Think about how boring it would be if a movie consisted solely of a character monologuing about what they think and feel, rather than having the actor ACT what they feel.

(Tangent, but there’s also been controversy that this exposition/“telling” mindset in current screenwriting marks a downfall of media literacy. Examples include the new Percy Jackson and Avatar: The Last Airbender remakes that have been criticized for info-dumping dialogue instead of “showing.”)

If you find it easy to envision things in your head, imagine how your scene would look in a movie. What is the lighting like? What are the subtle expressions flitting across the actors' faces, letting you know just how they're feeling? Is there any droning background noise that sets the tone-- like traffic outside, rain, or an air conditioner?

How do the actors convey things that can't be experienced through a screen, like smell and taste?

Write exactly what you see in your mind's eye, instead of explaining it with a degree of separation to your readers.

iii. Listen to Music

I find that because music evokes emotion, it helps you write with more passion—feelings instead of facts! It’s also slightly distracting, so if you’re writing while caught up in the music, it might free you from the rigid boundaries you’ve put in place for yourself.

Here’s a link to my master list of instrumental writing playlists!

iv. Practice, Practice, Practice! And Take Inspiration from Others!

“Show Don’t Tell” is the core of an immersive scene, and requires tons of writing skills cultivated through repeated exposure. Like I said before, more experienced writers instinctively switch between showing and telling as they write— but it’s a muscle that needs to be constantly exercised!

If I haven’t written in a while and need to get back into the flow of things, I take a look at a writing prompt, and try cultivating a scene that is as immersive as possible! Working on your “Show, Don’t Tell” skills by practicing writing short, fun one-shots can be much less restrictive than a lengthier work.

In addition, get some inspiration and study from reading the works of others, whether it be a fanfiction or published novel!
