#I HOPE THIS ISN'T GARBAGE

[sciderman]

Sci 😭 I am hearing blasphemy about Last Christmas on a stream. They were talking about Whamagedon and how it was "objectively the worst Christmas song" 😭😭

objectively on what grounds? you can't say objectively without solid grounds and research and also they are Objectively incorrect

source: me, the authority on christmas songs

Okay, so we're all in agreement that that line from Tommy in the date scene was weird as fuck, right?

Asking if you could write the Hangover story with Seth next? I'd love to see how he would help out with the paranormal hangover!

SUMMARY - You have your first paranormal hangover, and Seth helps you through it WARNINGS - none WORDS - 495

Why now? You had been through so many investigations before, and it had never happened, even on the most intense nights, so why now? You just had to get your first hangover on a minor, single ghost investigation. You were almost embarrassed.

                  Seth, of course, was the first to notice something was up. You had been spacey since you went under for the Estes session, and he had been keeping a close eye on you ever since.

                  “Hey, you doin’ alright?” he asked as he picked up his backpack from the floor. Chase was out at the car loading up the equipment, so it was just the two of you in the tiny, run down house. It took you a moment to shift your attention to him.

                  “Yea, yea, just… incredibly drained. Think I’ve got my first hangover,” you chuckled, slouching further into the chair you were in. You ran a tired hand over your face, hoping to wipe off some of the exhaustion. A hand was extended in front of you, Seth’s silent offer to help you up and into the car.

                  “Come on. The quicker we get you out of here, the sooner you’ll feel better. I’ve been through this before. I know what helps.” Your heart all but melted at the mixture of the gesture and the soft smile on his face. You took his hand wordlessly, thanking your lucky stars that you landed the coolest boyfriend ever.

                  You spent the ride home using every ounce of energy you had trying to focus on Seth’s words and keep yourself awake. At some point, you half registered something about fries and milkshakes, but you weren’t quite sure until you got back home. As soon as you were through the front door, you were all but babied. Seth grabbed you your coziest sweats and some fuzzy socks, insisting you change in the bathroom and not the bedroom because there were less chances of you just knocking out that way. You settled on the couch once you were changed, taking note of the show playing on the TV. Your favorite show. Good lord, he was spoiling you.

                  “Cozy?” he asked as he popped in from around the corner, fries and milkshakes in hand (so that’s what that was). You nodded, once again rubbing at your eyes. He sat down next to you and handed you your share of the food. A blanket was thrown over the two of you, and Seth proceeded to pull you into his lap. You laughed a bit to yourself as you settled in.

                  “Something funny?”

                  “You know you don’t have to go overboard here. It’s just a paranormal hangover. It’s not like I’m sick or anything.”

                  “What, you expect me not to spoil my wonderful partner during their first ever hangover? These can suck. I wanna make sure you get through your first one as spoiled and comfortable as possible.”

                  “You’re ridiculous. I love you.”

                  “I love you too, baby.”

i know i've made this post before but it regularly irritates me that people are Right about how a clean space effects your mental stability. fucking hate that i always feel better about myself once my apartment is clean. what's next? exercise that actually improves my mood? fuck off.

[rukafais]

thinking fondly about one of the demonwars books where the protagonist has a fully justified meltdown about how monarchy is a flawed system because, among other things, you have to depend on always getting a good ruler and a bad ruler can undo everything the good ruler did and make things worse so what's the fucking point

[asleepinawell]

i know book sales pitches that follow the pattern "it's X meets Y" (like it's the mcu meets game of thrones) have been shown as being a successful way to increase sales by some suspect data points but the visceral hatred this gimmick evokes in me every time does the opposite of make me click the purchase button. not only are X and Y usually things I don't want more of, but they also usually have nothing in common with the book

So. Everyone who yelled at me yesterday for making a ramble on Reynie going blank and then not resolving it, this is for you: (@lemondropletters, you have been tagged)

Also, it's in a Google Doc because it was definitely too long for a Tumblr post, and ~~I don't know how AO3 works~~

The (vague) premise is that, instead of Constance seeing Curtain's broadcast, they all get to the compound mentally sound, but once there, they split up to look for Mr. Benedict, and instead Reynie finds Curtain. This is the wrap up of what would have happened in the last episode.

Also anytime I have literally any fukutora or Nekoma 2nd year-related thoughts, my brain just turns into princess leia going "ant you're my only hope" on repeat

Little do you know I'm the one transmitting those thoughts into your head, I've infiltrated your brain and now you're forced to think about the funny gay cat teens

[ghostbroccoli]

Greetings fellow living beings, I am currently sick with something. (I did research and my symptoms mostly resemble strep throat. :D yay fun.) (I have been sick with strep throat so many times.) I had to be forced to stay home from school. (I quite enjoy school.) So all day my throat has been hurting and I've been feeling nauseous. (Which I hate having to feel.) But yeah, my responses to any notifications might be slightly slow. :D yay excitement. I also am so tired. (As if I didn't already struggle with getting sleep.) I hate having to be sick.

'One Single Thread of Gold' Ch 4

‘Playing dress-up isn’t just a game; it’s a skill.’

It’s a phrase Lena hears once from a maid. At the time- she didn’t understand it. Still too young to read into those sorts of the things, she’d wondered if the games Lillian kept banned were being played behind her mother’s back. Hidden in plain sight like a pawn in knight’s armor. 

Now that she’s older, Lena knows the true explanation really isn’t far off. 

She knows that darkness is only bleak when it isn’t blended. And when diluted, it’s easily disguised with banquet halls and floral bouquets.

It’s twisted and it’s sick— Lena knows that part too. But the knowledge is passed down like a cherished family heirloom. And it’s easier than one might think to hide a prison behind ivy-covered walls.

Reminder: Starbucks sued their union over a pro-Palestine social media post. McDonald's donated billions of meals to israli terrorists. Neither are on the BDS boycott list, but both are in the "pressure" category.

Writing fanfic from a hotel room is such a vibe tbh

[rubberduckyrye]

Just wanted to throw a quick thank you for showing me kindness in this whole thing despite the fact we might not agree on some things! It's refreshing.

Oh hi there! Sorry for the late reply, I have the most abysmal sleep schedule known to man

And really, it's no issue. I am going to suggest that you do your own research into things like fictionkins when you're removed enough from the whole Flowerfell thing and in a better place to be more open minded to learn more about it, but really that's my only gripe. I think you need space first to heal and recover before I can expect you to do that, however, so as long as you're not going and attacking people for being fictionkin, I don't think theres much else I can or should ask for.

Aside from that, I never believe anything without proof. Sanei's counter accusations have only testimony as far as I'm aware, so I'm not going to dismiss them--but to treat them as the undeniable truth would be foolish until there is evidence.

I do hope things settle down, regardless. It sounds like the whole thing with Flowerfell was a huge mess that hurt a lot of people, and the creator hurt a lot of people on top of that.

Take it easy. If you feel up for it, show evidence for your side to the story. It'll be all right.
