Another WIP Wednesday already! Here’s a little bit from the ranch AU I’m writing for the @steter-bang :)
Gerard smiles, and it makes Peter shudder. He’s never seen a more unpleasant smile in his life.
“Now, be reasonable, Peter. Times are tough. We’re all just waiting on a fire to get too close, the animals to get sick, the winter to be too long. One of these days, you could be begging me to take this ranch off your hands.”
Peter saunters closer. “Even if every one of my cows died, my land was charred black, and we were literally the last two ranchers on the planet, I wouldn’t sell this ranch to you,” he says evenly.
“Now you listen to me,” Argent starts, but then he stops, eyes narrowing at something over Peter’s shoulder.
Peter looks around, and there’s Stiles, standing by the corner of the house, looking like he’d like to turn right around and head back the way he came.
“Sorry,” Stiles says, “Didn’t mean to interrupt.”
“Figures you’d wash up here,” Argent snarls at him. “It would take a worthless operation like this to take you on board.”
“That’s a lot of sailor metaphors for a place as landlocked as this,” Stiles replies.
#steter#steter bang 2023#steter ranch au#my writing#if anyone is excited about this and wants to cheer me along#it would be so welcome#I’m struggling big time#a super stressful summer is not conducive to creativity

Some love at twilight stuff with the fam. Rusl and Uli are cute, Colin is an annoying little brother, and Kori and Rela are bffs and do everything together. I love them all.
#Colin never makes fun of anyone for being short#cuz ordon doesn’t care about height#but he will make fun of Link relentlessly#‘imagine being short. cojldnt be me’#love at twilight#Kori#twilight princess#legend of zelda au#zelda au#Rela is Kori’s aunt but since they’re so close in age they struggle seeing each other as nephew and aunt#they’re more like siblings#but also not cuz kori answers to Rela’s big brother#idk kori is a fun kid but I also imagine he’s timid at times#and Rela is more headstrong and brace#brave#also Colin could never bear link in wrestling he’s so weak#link is stronk#Rusl stop loving his wife every second challenge#I’m so glad Rusl doesn’t look goofy without his headband and instead looks sooo goo#also Rusl is jacked his clothes just hide it really well#the dude is a blacksmith I imagine he’s very strong

aau rework version of the overload/boss fight where it actually has consequences and bearing on the character dynamics save me,, save me aau rework,,,,
#Ily greif Stricken mj ily trust issues hattie ily pissed snatcher etc#The overload actually being a big deal also works out better bc youknow snatch doessss elude to it with mjs contract that shit will go down#So It fits better to me theyll all get a dynamic shift#ESP with the thought of mj finally starting to bond w snatcher a bit beforehand too fuckkkk#Undid all that progress#AND HAT that fucks me upppp like the one adult person you meet that you trust that hasn’t tried to kill you or backstab you doing just that#That will FUCK HER UPPPPP#THE SECOND IT HIT ME THE REASON I STRUGGLED WRITING HER WAS BC SHE WAS BORING WAS EARTH SHATTERING#BC THEN I WAS INSTANTLY LIKE “ok she comes to befriend mj wayyyy too fast I gotta inflict trust issues upon her later”#Bc I mentioned it like she jokes that mj is the only person on earth that didn’t try to kill her but never played on that fact#So boom the overload is my opportunity#Like they can’t get into a found family THAT EASILY. THESE GUYS ARE FIGHTING TOOTH AND NAIL FOR IT !!#a!au#amnesia!moonjumper au#ahit au#ahit a!au#Also if if ur wondering I drew snatch like that bc I like the idea he’s in between forms bc he’s weakened <mj uses the blue strings on him#Hence why he doesn’t do anything during the fight bc he’s kinda sorta been restrained oops lol#Watching ur forest and subjects get fucked up by a weirdo fucked up you cannot be fun#No one wins in overload arc. Everyone is having a bad time. Lol.#Ok I’m done yapping#Everyone loves Raymond OUT everyone hates mj IN

artistic rendition of a work selfie I took today
mr wiggles my beloved my best homie <3
#technically I should not be taking pics of the kids and 99% of the time I restrain myself#but every now and then I love a kid so much that I’m like… I just need One picture. at the very least….#what if I quit and then I forget what they look like 🥺🥺🥺#anyways I love mr wiggles so fucking much he is everything 2 me#putting my picture of him into a heart locket and carrying it around for strength like a WW2 soldier#doodles#god I struggled so bad trying to make his face look cute and not freaky. babies are so hard#usually I just do little dot eyes but I HAD to convey how big and round his eyes are. he’s so fucking round.

idek why but this is Peak Romance(TM)
#the ending of Emma! is so warm and so funny#and so good#every emotional beat is so true#I also love the part where Emma learns that Harriet is engaged and she’s so overflowing with happiness#because one of her two obstacles to happiness has been removed#(And she’s working on the other obstacle her dad)#and it says she has to move around and talk to herself and laugh before she can be around anyone again#and I just—-aksjsjjsjdjdjdjd#I love it SO much. I have experienced that before!!!#just times where the overflow of happiness makes you so giddy and almost foolish you have to be alone#ALSO. I’ve been reflecting because years ago I read a piece of literary criticism that said that Emma never learns or changes#she’s Sad and forced to face the consequences of her Actions for like one afternoon#and then everything she wants to happen happens#and she gets to sort of just dance away with a sparkle in her eye#and the criticism was like ‘good for her but this is not a journey of change or growth’#and I’ve always been haunted by it because there is something true about it? Emma is still Emma is still Emma#and also because when I teach it I sort of have to be like ‘Emma has changed! and feels bad about stuff!’ because that’s just kind of#how you have to do it with teenagers/and/or it’s what THEY say#and I can’t contradict them but it doesn’t feel exactly true either#and I don’t know. it’s sort of hitting me this time around that there is just a deepening of Emma’s sweetness#in the second half of the novel and that’s why it always feels so warm#like. with Lizzy the change is so big you can absolutely feel it! it’s undeniable and it rocks her entire (internal) world#Darcy’s letter forces a change in her worldview. in her views of her family and her sisters and Wickham and Jane and just everything#but the box hill scene isn’t that with Emma —but it does pierce through …. something#some kind of flippancy maybe? coldness? she IS more likable in the second half of the book#and yet she is no different. idk I’m struggling to name it exactly#maybe it is a kind of growing up. it never feels quite as simple or as obvious as ‘now she has learned and will never do it again’#I actually think Emma will do it again a LOT lol (the small joke about shipping Mrs. Weston’s daughters with her nephews that Austen makes)#but it’s like—-the lifeblood of her heart has started flowing differently—if that makes sense#she crosses a threshold on the drive home from Box Hill when she sits in the back of the carriage and cries silently

me in real life, struggling to recognize people I’ve met multiple times: haha no yeah I’m sorry I’m just really bad with faces
me with any visual media: oh hey that actor played this named character in this specific tv show from 2006 and in their last episode they wore a red and white blouse and their hair was bleach blonde
#inspired by the episode of the mentalist I’m watching which has Camille from Big Time Rush and Van Gogh from Doctor Who in it#also im pretty sure i know the reason its bc i struggle to look people in the face for prolonged periods bc ~eye contact~#autism#autistic#actually autistic

Not aiming this at anyone specifically, but I’m genuinely so disappointed & annoyed at the fact no one in my real life circles bothered to reach out to me to check up on me regarding the recent Liam Payne/One Direction news.
#ignore if you want I’m just gonna vent a minute#it’s been over 3 days now & almost nothing#They know I was/am a fan of at least 1d or could take a pretty good educated guess if nothing else#& yet not one person who knows me personally bothered to ask if I was alright#And honestly… I’m not#I’m fucking struggling#it’s just so complex n confusing & I’m having a really hard time coming to terms with everything#I get it people are busy and have their own things going#& they probably don’t think it’s a big deal losing Liam as it was just a silly little boyband to them#but to me n to everyone who was there for those years it feels so so strangely personal#like a longtime distant friend has just been ripped away so tragically#& not only the tragic death of a person but the death of your adolescence & all the innocence of that time#the end of an era that had so much joy n significance in your life#& I know it’s probably not easy to tell I’m upset bc I keep my emotions pretty much exclusively to myself (thanks autism)#but honestly it’s just so invalidating and isolating to not have anyone to talk to#I already feel so completely alone in general bc no one ever checks in with me n stuff like this just solidifies that#I just don’t think it would have been so difficult just to drop a quick message to say ‘hope you’re okay’ or ‘thinking of you’ at least#it would have made a difference#& I know this post isn’t gonna matter to anyone but I just had to get my frustrations out somewhere bc it’s weighing on me a lot#anyway if you got to here thanks for your time n I hope you’re doing okay!!#feel free to reach out to me if you ever want/need to ❤️❤️❤️#wow that was a lot#personal#Kirsty talks#my posts#my stuff#1d#Liam Payne#one direction

Does anyone know why Argenti has a new VA 🤔 ?
#I just found out#idk what happened#if it’s health reasons or something forget I asked#ngl Ik it’s not a big deal but I really liked argentis current voice#it’s part of the reason why I pulled for him#hsr argenti#hsr#honkai star rail argenti#Honkai star rail#argenti#crazy timing for me cause I just pulled his lc and I’m writing a fic about him and I was rewatching his companion quest#the fact this happened during my argenti phase lmao#I’m writing a fanfic about argenti and yesterday I was searching up how to describe his voice because I was really struggling#and on Reddit today ive seen people describe Argentis original voice in all kinds of ways so this is kind of convinent#I’ve listened to both voices#I prefer Argentis original voice but the replacement is too far off tbh

Small thing I’m cooking for idksomethingclever99’s fic MITPP!! For some reason I’m having trouble tagging them but here’s the fic!!
This seemed fun to do… probably won’t get more done than this page though…
#omori#omori au#omori mari#omori sunny#I’m ALSO trying to do this with my mutual lynx’s fic is it a bird#because I originally wanted to do one big piece for it but I’ve been STRUGGLING and demotivated#plus I’d LOVE to do an adaptation of one of their chapters#ANYWAYS#detail I really loved in retrospect of chapter 12 is how this fic keeps the detail of the bedlam’s clothes changing to foreshadow her true-#-form as time goes on#or in this case aliquid#since he’s more of this shadowy creature than anything#being covered in an all black suit was a fantastic choice so I’m trying to add something elements throughout#namely the tie… but I’m going to try squeeze it in elsewhere#also not sure what Maris wearing here so I improvised… it probably says somewhere so I’ll go back and check#I thought her picnic sweater outfit would suffice as it’s pretty similar to what coraline’s wearinv at this point in the story!!#not sure how I feel about all the heromari I’m going to be able to draw…#on one hand it’s heromari but in the other hand it’s fucking Henry#he CREEPS me out god I hate him but I live him because I know that’s the whole point of him#get AWAY omg#anyway yes this is the Button Eye scene! so end of chapter 10 to start of chapter 11#I might do the drawing room too because I really want to draw it but that’s a bit of a stretch#honestly though coraline is a very visually interesting film and that’s part of the point and experience of it#and I feel like this fic deserves the same#especially with the amount of effort and detail and beauty idk puts into their settings… eg drawing room scene#anyway. rambling again. take art have fun#coraline

Choosing to be kind to others can be a form of self-care, it is not shameful 💕
#i once listened to a public speaker who came to my school to talk about mental health#and he talked about a time where he made an inappropriate joke that didn’t land in front of a big crowd and was confronted with that#and he was so wracked with guilt and he didn’t know what to do even after he apologized#and he said that thing that helped him get better and move on was to do random acts of kindness for others to put more good in the world#and reaffirm that he is not a terrible person to himself#I still think about that a lot and it helps me with my own mental health struggles#when I’m in a dark place I make a deliberate choice to be kind#and it helps pull me out
