#I WAS ZONING OUT EHAT HAPPENED

[sturnioloshacker]

GIRL EHAT IS HAPPENING WHY R PEOPLE CRYING OVER THE NEW VIDEO WHEN DID MATT SAY HE LIKES CLAIRO AND POLOS AND TEAFHERS IM SO LOST N I CAN'T WATCH THE NEW VID TIL TMRW MORNING

matt got asked 3 questions that were meant to be invasive and out of his comfort zone. first one was if he ever had a crush on any of his teachers to which he said yes. i think second or third one was about guilty pleasure songs and that’s where he said bags by clairo. the other question was what he looks for in a significant other and he said if they had a sibling, looked good in a men’s polo shirt and something else.

hope that helps love, get some tissues for when you watch the vlog too x

[sea-dwelling-wizard]

1. Durin. He's an impulsive kleptomaniac and steals stuff all the time.

2. The Sea-dwellers (the merfolk of my world <333) normally have semi-active brains while sleeping. To say what they dream about is quite hard since yk. They're fish people

3. Earrings! A person is considered quite wealthy if they have one of those. Especially in the shape of a diamond ;]

4. Legends say that if you go out to sea at night, you'll hear the stars whisper your fate. Don't listen to the sky for too long or the sirens'll eat you.

5. This is an old project but here's my fav para

The thought of truth was a childish dream when all he saw was lies. 

Who was he, really? Hysteria wore down to reveal a writhing mass of questions and hatred for himself. Atticus’s mind wandered to the darkest depths of consciousness, seeking out answers to the bleak dead zones of the sea. 

He felt that parts of him were coming back together each passing second, slowly revealing what he was really like. The past which loomed behind the concrete wall scared him yet lured him into the thirst of curiosity, which nothing could quench, even the mass water body of the sea.

It's cringe 💀 ive started this project's second draft though and its bound to be better!!!

6. Hex_agon; she's an oc who's a parasite of sorts. She's inhabiting my mind rn and she's taken my personality :D

7. The Star Sea has carriages run by small fishes while the Empyreum and major parts of the Skysheath Forest have car-like transportation. Motocycles exist too.

8. Haven't written in a while, but my mc's wearing clothes fit for adventuring!

9. I'll choose my other wip for this; the conflict is that. well. the sun's gone and the most powerful person in the realm is blamed. theres a bounty on him :D

10. no.

ok fine

this is from a lil experimental story i wrote to practice first person

It was a particularly dark night, with little or so life roaming outside the camps. The atmosphere was quiet, and cozy as if it all never happened. We were all inside the main area of our portable living quarters. Everyone was quite chatty, including that murderer. 

11. ALL OF THE SEA-DWELLERS ARE NOT REAL. THE VILLAIN, OURRA, CREATED PUPLETS TO MIMIC THE ONES HE LOVED DESIGNED TO HAVE NO SOUL AND THE MC SHOWED SIGNS OF BEING RELATED TO OURRA SO HE GOT EXOERIMENTED ON AND AFTER SM YEARS HE REALISED HE HAD NO SOUL AND AJSNJDNSNDNFNNWJDKSK THATS THE FIRST PART OF THE PLOT :D

12. For the wip mentioned in no. 9, soliel soliel by Pomme inspired the plot!

13. The Star Sea:

- Wet, clammy, heavy

- Clattering and snapping of creatures, whale sounds

- Blue and black, yet vibrant, bustling empires under the sea

- Slippery, rough, smooth, all at once

- idk ehat it could smell like since its the sea. saline?

14. The first line of my first novel is my favorite line. "You don't understand," Atticus yelled, "The Abyss is not to be messed with."

15. ahggg the beginning of the wip mentioned in no. 9 is really hard to work on since i'm experimenting with tons of elements and themes

[laxiet]

I’ve reached a point in my life where I don’t understand what’s going on. I feel a little lost. I know it’ll be ok. Home isn’t home anymore. I know that’s a bold statement but it just isn’t and I’m coming to a realization. I have been taken out of my comfort zone and it had been one of the most amazing things ever. I feel like I’m drowning but when I’m in this world I can come up and swim and breathe. I’m having trouble coping with how certain things will pan out and it makes me think a lot but I have to learn to enjoy the little glimpse. My soul has lit up and I feel understood again. I feel like a different me. The real me. The me that I never knew. I don’t know EHAT the future has in store but I can only hope they go the way I’m painting them in my head although that probably won’t happen but you never know. Cant believe I’ve met someone so impacting and the fact that they’ve been so near boggles my mind. Shit feels great. I feel alive in a world where I can be who I want to be. I feel dead in a world where I have to be what people want me to be. It’s in my hands to decide which one I live.

Moving In

Summary: Fushimi buys a new apartment and doesn’t invite Hidaka to move in with him. Can Fushimi be convinced other wise?

Pairing: HiSaru (Hidaka x Fushimi)

Ao3 / FF.net

Based on this post by Ridas.

What little cloths Fushimi had were all scattered on the bed in the empty room. He had just moved into his brand new 2 bedroom apartment. Computer and other electronic gadgets also cluttered the floor, but Fushimi didn’t care.

A knock came at the door. On the other side was Hidaka, holding a bottle of wine. Ever since Fushimi announced that he got the place, the taller man had been pushing him for an invite.

“Hi Fushimi.” His voice was bright and happy, as he strolled in. He looked around and turned to face Fushimi. “Say this place is kind of big… it can fit 2 people here”

Fushimi’s face was blank with a hint of annoyance.

“…we can hang out and play video games…” Fushimi walked past him to the room. “Make out…”

“Tsk!” Fushimi snapped. “Why are you saying pointless drival?”

Hidaka’s expression falls. Maybe Fushimi doesn’t feel as serious about him.

Of course this leads to Hidaka’s mood to be more subdue in the coming days. Hidaka still smiles and greets Fushimi, but it just doesn’t have the same energy behind it.

In the meeting room with the rest of the squad, they gathered around their moody comrade. They had noticed something happened between the two lovers. Watching Hidaka force himself to smile had clued in everyone.

“Hidaka…” Goto gently said. Only a groan was returned.

“Did you both break up?” Fuse harshly said. This earned him a light jab from Akiyama.

“No we didn’t. At least I don’t think so…” Hidaka replied. “He might not be as serious about this like I thought he was.”

“Don’t say that,” Benzai chimed in. “I’m sure Fushimi is serious about this relationship.”

“Then why didn’t he ask me to move in with him?” Hidaka cried. “I even put out hints.”

“So that’s what this is about.” Enomoto said.

“Look, all you have to do is tell him!” Andy blurted out. “You know how clueless Fushimi is.”

“But that’ll only make Fushimi push Hidaka away, being that aggressive.” Kamo said. Hidaka agreed.

“Are you eager to move in with Fushimi because I accidentally walked in on you both making out?” Hidaka quickly jumped up to late to stop Goto from finishing his sentence.

“Gotti!” Hidaka yelled. After a few playful punches Hidaka regained his composer, with a slight blush on his face. “Its not that. I just want our relationship to progress.”

“I see…” Akiyama mumbled.

Fushimi noticed a huge decline of cheerfulness in Hidaka. He couldn’t figure out why the brunet was acting like that. It especially annoyed him that he might be the cause of Hidaka’s sullen mood. He scoffed, “Ehat did I even do?”

His scowl soon turned into his self-hating smirk. ‘Maybe he already finished with me.’

“Fushimi-san.” From behind him Akiyama called out, pulling Fushimi away from any further negative thoughts. He gestured for Fushimi to come to a more secluded part of the hallway. Akiyama had his usual peaceful smile on.

“So Fushimi-san, how is the new apartment coming.

"Tsk.” Just earlier Munakata had been bothering him about that. Saying something about how to upkeep it or something. Fushimi zoned out before the captain even started his info dump. And Awashima was trying to teach him anko recipes.

“That idiot. He’s always complaining about the place. Saying it’s too big, and other pointless stuff.” Fushimi ranted.

Akiyama looked at Fushimi in surprise. “Um, Fushimi-san… Maybe Hidaka wasn’t complaining but was trying to ask for an invite.”

Fushimi responded with confusion.

“When your serious about someone you want to live with them, right.”

“No.” Fushimi harshly said. His mind went to the time when he moved in with Yata and how badly that went.

When Fushimi returned home, he looked at the door to the other room. What Akiyama said earlier was nagging at him all day. But seeing Hidaka walk around like a kicked puppy made Fushimi feel worse.

The next day, Fushimi walked up to Hidaka.

“Good morning Fushimi.”

Fushimi handed a key to Hidaka and looked away in embarrassment.

“A key is this…?”

“It may not be so awful to have a roommate.” Fushimi started and quickly added. “If you get too annoying, I’m kicking you out. This is only temporary.”

Hidaka heard none of what Fushimi said and threw his arms around Fushimi as his face lights up. There was a distinct blush on Fushimi’s face as he was complaining about the affection.

Not as good as "Born To Run" McDougall's book "Born To Run" is almost like my bible. I have notes scratched in the margins and I re-read the book every other year to keep me motivated. I was hoping Natural Born Heroes would be the same, but the side narratives that I was so fond of in "Born To Run" have become way too frequent and confusing in this book. Great story, I do like the authors writing style, but I had a difficult time keeping track of present day, flashbacks, origin stories, side stories and historical narratives. Go to Amazon

Heros and the cutting edge of sports science What a great mixture of history and athleticism. In "Born to Run" McDougall brought ultra-running and barefoot running to the public's attention. Here he introduces us to coaches who have don't take the mainstream path: Erwan Le Corre and MovNat; Phil Maffetone, the genius behind MAF training and coach of Mark Allen; Tim Noakes who has admitted is errors and now is leading the Banting revolution in South Africa; and more. Great looks at great coaches/sports scientists and woven well into the story of some genuine WWII heros in Crete. Go to Amazon

... concepts regarding ancestral health and puts them into an easy to read and entertaining form that reads almost like ... This book takes various concepts regarding ancestral health and puts them into an easy to read and entertaining form that reads almost like a novel. There are no diet plans or exercise regimes in the book. But there are tidbits of information leading towards a place that leaves you wanting more knowledge. Go to Amazon

Both of thse books as some of the best I've read I've read both Born To Run, and Natural Born Heroes by Christopher McDougall. Both of thse books as some of the best I've read, and are also two of the most influential books in my life. There is a lot of fascinating history of Crete packed into this book, along with just enough leads into fitness and diet to get anyone started on the right path towards truly changing their health for the best. His casual mention of some current day heroes would have me putting the book down to run to the computer, looking up the mentioned youtube video, or the person's name behind the story, which makes the book even more entertaining, and provides new paths to learn and follow far after the last page has been read. Go to Amazon

Great story, learned a ton! Great story about the kidnapping of the German general, with interesting, valuable information on how the Cretans and British guys did it, physiologically. What was new to me was the connection Mcdouglall made to Phil Maffetone's research on heart rate zones. Every piece of cardio equipment in the world has these ranges plastered on the front, probably because of his research. However, I don't think very few people understand that the most important component of getting in that zone is have a diet that supports the activity. I was one of those until I read this book and then a bit more of Maffetone's blog. I was a cardio snob, but now see how to do it more effectively for conditioning. Go to Amazon

A Diverse and Informative Book on Many Subjects Many diverse ideas brought into a fascinating tale which cover from diet to how the people of Crete probably changed the outcome of WW2 making the German army's late leaving to invade Russia which led to their repeat of Napoleon's demise just short of Moscow as winter snows and freezing moved in. Their diet allowed them to be such fierce adversaries, for example, running double marathons through the mountains without eating. Junk scientific research misunderstood the Cretan diet which has now become the Mediterranean diet espoused by supposed diet experts. In fact In fact it was the rigid fasting regime of the Greek Orthodox Church and the high protein and high fat diet is what made them so metabolically strong. If interested in this aspect read Nina Teicholtz's book "Big Fat Surprise" which details how the misbegotten science came about creating the Mediterranean diet. Go to Amazon

He reset my concept of ehat 'hero' means and changed my perspective on general fitness disciplines like parcour (sp Chris has done it again. Weaving multiple stories into a cohesive tapestry is his forte. It took me a chapter or so to get into it, but after thst I was hooked. As with BtR his research has led me into more reading and a deeper understanding. Thanks to his work I have gained a much greater appreciation of the human body and of my own fitness and health. He reset my concept of ehat 'hero' means and changed my perspective on general fitness disciplines like parcour (sp?) and cross fit. I'm finding his logic reflected in other research and am glad he is using his voice to educating and entertaining Go to Amazon

Must read! His first book, Born to Run, was amazing. Natural Born Heroes, was just as hard to put down. You can't stop reading this book until you find out what ultimately happened during WW II on the Greece island of Crete and the local resistance to the German occupation. Unbelievably inspiring!
