#I have to go to a meeting tomorrow and I don't wanna

[pybun]

a quick script of the comic im thinking with dynamo, abrams and marlowe. looks like this will exceed 6 pages if i also wanna do the lunch date scene

for some context: haze got a bunch of new lines and her lines for dynamo implies that his wife, marlowe, is at least one of the heads of the OSIC that haze works for

PAGE 1-------------------------------

1 - library exterior night

2 - abrams hiding in the shadows outside library 3 - close up on his watch showing its around 11pm 4 - worried abrams face

5 - tapping of footsteps can be heard, abrams turns around to see whos appraoching him 6 - dynamos running towards him with the book in hand

PAGE 2-------------------------------

1 - dynamo info dumps abt his access to the nocturnal library 2 - abrams looks worried but also flustered 3 - abrams tunnel visioning onto dynamo's "eyes" while dynamo kept yapping

4 - abrams pins dynamo on the nearest wall, stopping dynamo from talking

5 - dynamo: w-what's wrong? 6 - abrams staring, sweating, trying to come up with words. background is filled with words he wanted to say (he was v worried that he might gotten attacked in there, etc) 7 - dyn: sorry. i shouldn't have spilled. haha. wrong place and time. s-sorry

8 - abrams, embarassed: y-yeah…..lets go some place safe

PAGE 3-------------------------------

1 - dyn: oh i have to go home. marlowe might be worried sick 2 - abrams, looking away: oh y-yeah sure. i'll just call you tomorrow 3 - dynamo hands abrams some papers dyn: here, i made a photocopy of the notes i took

4 - abrams: thank you, dynamo. i really appreciate all the help 5 - dyn: its a pleasure! see you tomorrow or whenever

6 - wide shot of library front, the 2 are splitting up. theres a car in the foreground

7 - car interior shot. close up on screen on dashboard showing OSIC logo driver: isn't that your husband, maam 8 - pull back shot, someones sitting at the backseat looking out the window marlowe: unmistakably

(might combine 7 and 8 panels to make room for 9)

9 - close up of marlowe looking neutral driver: that other man- marlowe: lets just leave driver: of course

PAGE 4-------------------------------

1 - wide shot of bed room. marlowe is already in bed "asleep". dynamo enters the room

2 - dynamo in his jammies, getting ready and sitting on the bed next to his wife 3 - marlowe turns around to face her husband 4 - back, close up shot of dynamo noticing marlowe marlowe, offscreen: how was work today?

5 - dynamo while slipping under the blanket: i was helping a friend with some research after work. sorry, i didnt expect it would take that long mar, listening: what did you guys find? 6 - dynamo, settled in bed, facing marlowe dyn: remember the nocturnal library ive heard about? i finally got in! [info dump] 7 - marlowe, listening, smiling

PAGE 5-------------------------------

1 - mar: whos the friend youre helping? dyn: it's detective abrams. he's a bit obsessed with this book but i don't mind….i mean it is interesting to look into and look where it got me today 2 - marlowe's face relaxed, holding back a thought for a moment 3 - dynamo looks at marlowe as she started speaking mar: remember what i said years ago that, due to the nature of my work, i wouldnt hate you if you find company in other people?

4 - dynamo shot up in bed dyn, embarassed: no no no, that's not where this book thing is going- 5 - dynamo pauses, relaxes and realized dyn: you were there were you? at the library?

6 - marlowe, lies on her back to face away from her husband, looking at the ceiling mar: my position is not usually concerned of who gets access to the nocturnal library but when i was notified that a familiar name showed up, i had to see it for myself

7 - dynamo looking at her still facing the ceiling 8 - same panel but dynamo facing away, kinda defeated dyn: there's nothing going on between me and the detective 9 - same panel again, now marlowe looking at dynamo mar: have you asked the detective? 10 - same panel again but wider, dynamo meets marlowe's gaze

So, I got an idea from @voice-o-fallacy to write a little thing about Melinda's first experiences as a 'human' on the surface :]

A First for Everything

`I wanted to sort of, catalog my thoughts on how all the things on the surface work, and when I asked the person next to me on the long car they call a "bus", they said writing would help. Besides, it'll help me remember how to act like a proper human. :]`

`So, money, it's always about this green paper they call money. I don't understand why they like the green paper so much, but the shiny metal circles I get. "Coins" they're called, I think. You get it by doing really weird chores for people called "jobs", or by selling stuff.`

`I got a good job, it's in this "gym" where humans go to make themselves bigger, a way to ward off predators no doubt. I help clean up, but they mostly just make me stack all the stuff they find heavy. They give me weird looks cause my body is a lot thinner than theirs, but they usually stop when I help them! They get all shocked and stuff, I don't get it, I know the weights are supposed to be heavy, but they aren't that bad? One of them keeps excitedly telling me how much I carried, I think the most recent number was some seven-hundred. It got really easy to lift stuff when I fully learned how human muscles worked instead of eating them.`

`They keep talking about me trying for something called "olympics", but I really don't want to take on another job right now.`

`Sometimes I use money to go to the stores around, it took me a while and a few bodies to learn you had to pay for the things inside. The "grocery" store has a lot of tasty stuff in it! But people look at me weird when I have a basket full of their bakery items, I don't get it.`

`I spend a lot of money at this one place, they sit you down and give you a piece of paper, then ask what you want to eat off of it. Then they just bring the food to you! And it's all cooked nice! I didn't realize vegetables tasted so good until then!`

`It's usually the same woman who serves me, she's super nice! I think she finds me funny. :] I always say hi to her, then order the giant stack of "pan cakes" that they have with all the chocolate inside them. Then I put a bunch of syrup on them, the strawberry one is my favorite. Then I get a bowl of fruit with it!`

`The lady asked me to go to the "cafe", which I later learned was the place they served the really gross bitter liquid at. (She likes it???) I'm supposed to meet her there tomorrow at five, but I didn't hear her say which "m" it is, so I'll just show up at 5a"m" and wait. :]`

`She's got this really nice hair too, I asked her how she got it and she said she was just born with it, but I didn't know hair could be that really light yellow! She said she'd help me get some of my own, and that I could probably have any color I wanted! Yellow is my favorite color so far, but I also wanna try out green! Or pink!`

`So yeah, things are good so far. I'm hoping they stay that way. :]`

YOU'RE READING LEGENDBORN??? OMG I LOVE THAT BOOK. CAN YOU TELL I BET YOU CAN'T TELL BUT CAN YOU TELL???

honestly, i figured it was only a matter of time before you got there if you hadn't already.

I AM!!! I've had it on my shelf for a while, but never really gotten around to it because I didn't know much about it except that people thought it was good. But then I saw this review the other day from someone I follow that went a little more in depth and said it's the book they recommend as the pinnacle of YA and what it can be. and I HAD to see what was up

I started it this morning and am now 324 pages in and already remorseful I don't have the sequel on hand. I actually just stopped answering this to go look at my local book store--and they have a used copy available! gonna snag that real quick. okay, order submitted. I'll pick it up sometime this week

It's just so delightful. The magic system, the characters, the character relationships. I feel both like I understand what's happening and also that the entire world is passing me by. And the banter! The humor! There's several moments that I just have to smile at, it's so fun

I. have a type. when it comes to favorite characters. So I really want to see more of Sel and his situation. it's always a delight when he's on page. but i'm also super drawn in by the mystery of Bree. what is going on! what's the deal with the aether and root and all these secrets!! i don't know enough about arthurian myth to really say anything they don't tell me, but I am on the edge of my seat by god

I'm gonna see if I can pound out the rest of this book today, because classes start tomorrow and if it's still hanging over me it WILL distract me. this is what I get for starting a really good long book with only a day left of break </3

my mum supports me in getting accessibility aids when i break down about it but the moment i'm not upset or in tears then it's what if people don't want to talk to you because you're in a wheelchair and what if they think you're fragile and i want you to make friends but this might not help and-

I DID IT!!

Aaaaaaaah 😭

I am mildly impressed that I can't remember seeing a single wing fic. It's honestly fascinating. I have more thoughts about the general trends and types of fics this fandom seems to be drawn to (or seems to skip entirely), but those will have to wait for a more reasonable time of day.

Maybe sometime tomorrow I'll also go over my ao3 history for an estimate of how many of these I ended up reading in the end. 🤔

I'm going to leave the tab open in my browser but now I'm finally going to allow myself to filter out everything I found I didn't vibe with (which... Will probably remove quite a bit of fics. Especially from the E rated ones. Once again I find myself at odds with the majority of fandom when it comes to certain aspects of my otps' characterization). But I did it!!

[naomiknight-17]

Thank goodness we had a 'leftovers and whatever' night for dinner because it meant there weren't many dishes to clean

Cuz just cleaning the few things there were took the last of my strength just now

[dredshirtroberts]

i am allowed to both be delighted and content with the way my evening went and how lovely it was to be around friends, and also be really upset over the fact that i cannot do much without intense and great pain.

[gachaparadise]

ahhh the Penacony leaks are really coming in now.

*chuckles* I'm in danger.

[natreads]

hate that with freelance I never truly have the day off because in the back of my mind I'm always feeling like I should be working

[paeinovis]

Me: boy howdy I sure am relieved that my poster presentation is over ! Now I'm going to take a siesta so I can rally for tonight's events :-)

My Body: you want a break ? you wanted a break ? [becomes ill even though there are two more days for this conference]

[supercantaloupe]

argh...i got invited to a dinner party on 9/16. i don't know if i should decline because of rosh hashannah or not

why is achilles the only demigod who's Like That? like he's my boy but u don't see memnon or aeneas or sarpedon acting like him on the reg. why is he so maladjusted? like specifically? I saw his mother once and was so terrified by the sight of a goddess I flung myself to the ground and hid my face in the dirt til she left but I still don't think that accounts for it idk

I was the one who wrote the achilles/agamemnon 100k slowburn enemies to lovers rpf and put it on the group chat but now patroclus is calling me 'agachilles boy' and laughing about it and asking if I can proofread his mock bardic epic where all his dogs are heroes and killing people, so I fear I've made a mistake. I also can't look achilles in the eye anymore... but honestly I've never seen proof he can read so I might be safe

imagine being the achaeans and your best warrior gets killed by PARIS, after everyone else had awesome deaths at the hands of sarpedon or hector or memnon... like that's literally so embarassing I just know achilles is fucking fuming down in hades rn. I bet the achaeans are gonna put around that paris was guided by apollo, or that paris happened to hit his only weak spot..... anything 2 try and make it less cringe.... lol lol we're popping the biggest bottles tonight. hope helen's there
