#I'm basically fine

🙃 I hate this fucking bodyyyyyy. Both hips out and my legs just went "Well, function is optional and spasms are fun! Suffer!" and it's not like it's fuckin anything any doctor can fuckin fix because my body doesn't have the good grace to have dramatic cinematic ailments, just weird fuckery that would just make them go "huh. that's new. have you tried exercising?" and I want to bite tear kill but I can't because I'm fucking stuck in bed

everyone has to be a little less mean to themselves about not reading enough books. letting go of reading as a pride thing is the first step to relearning how to actually enjoy reading for pleasure again. it's totally fine to start with a novella or with a comic or with a field guide or with literature meant for someone younger instead of being mad at yourself for not grokking ulysses in a week. just vary your diet and you'll be good.

i'm a literature scholar, i'm the one who has to be strict with myself about page counts and citations. you all? do what you want, just read and have fun.

So the other day I was (lightly) hit by a truck backing out of its driveway (don't worry, it was a lil bonk with the tailgate at best), and this exchange occurred.

Guy across the street clearly realizing he'd almost seen a woman run over, screaming: OH MY GOD ARE YOU OK Me, shaking my hand off, opening my mouth before I can think: I'm so sorry!? Guy driving truck, head shooting out the window: did YOU JUST APOLOGIZE to ME when I FUCKING HIT YOU WITH MY TRUCK??? Me, not thinking again: YES, I'M SORRY. I AM OK. SORRY. BARELY TAPPED ME. Guy in truck: WHY THE FUCK - Lady's voice from inside the truck: BECAUSE YOU'RE NOW A MAN SCREAMING AT A WOMAN LIKE YOU'RE ANGRY, YOU'RE WHY WE DO THIS. Guy: BUT I'M MAD FOR HER, NOT- Lady: YOU'RE STILL YELLING, STOP FUCKING SCARING HER ERIC.

Anyway so that joke about 'I would apologize to you if you ran me over' is apparently somewhat accurate for me, RIP.

I will never not be weak about Kyoko being so aggressive and hateful towards Sayaka because she reminded her of her past self, and yet for the same reasons ending up falling for her and wanting to protect her to the point of sacrificing her own life to not abandon her

Some requests were for modern AU so I played dress up with Erik in some modern outfits 😊

i'm rewatching tron uprising again for the first time in a while and I'd forgotten just how... graphic??? some of the violence is

holes punched in chests (multiple occasions)! a bisected guard dragging themself across the floor & trailing digital gore! a (failed) public execution where the prisioners are being pulled apart by lightcycles! dyson's caved-in skull! tron's entire fucking torture scene that was genuinely harrowing to watch! let's carve out his eye! let's carve out tron's fucking eye!

You know, if there's absolutely no intention of bringing Tommy back, I want them to never speak of him again.

I don't wanna be baited, and then I can continue with my silly little head canon that they started talking again/are friends. Maybe even fucking in secret if Buck's single. 🤭

it felt like home and sunlight and love and cramped motel rooms and a punch in the face and a cold beer and a too big leather jacket and gun oil and home and-

[tennessoui]

so i've been thinking about this premise for so long but it wasn't working for obikin (which of course i took as a challenge) and i think i finally got it where i want it so

au where 35 yo obi-wan is a music sensation across the world but he's recently divorced and going on tour again after releasing a very cutting, personal, and well-received album

and 19 yo anakin joins his tour with his very small band of two other people (ahsoka, padmé) to be his opening act - they have a small but loyal following, a pretty big social media presence, and there are even people who ship anakin and padmé which you know means these are die-hard fans

anakin has definitely looked up to obi-wan and his music for a good portion of his life and he's like. beyond excited that he's going to tour with The Obi-Wan Kenobi - this is big, not just for his music career but also for himself and the little boy he was listening to obi-wan's music for the first time!!

i'm just imagining like....obi-wan and anakin meeting after a few days of rehearsal for opening night, and it's not the most auspicious start because obi-wan's going through like 20 different emotions at any given moment (he's on tour, he's divorced, he's tired, he loves the music, he can't be the person he was in his twenties when he was first on tour but that's a whole different matter, he has all the media training and charismatic instinct to cover up these less than savory emotions with flirtatious empty words) and anakin is just like. sorta starstruck sorta shy sorta eager sorta awkward so:

"i'm uh, i'm a singer it's nice to meet you. hi yeah. hello. i'm on tour. as well. with you. actually." "ah no, are you one of my backing vocal artists? we can't have that - you're much too gorgeous and my ego is much too dependent on the audience focusing on me." "um 😳"

so it's a relationship that begins with a lot of flirting and being flustered and progresses through moments of vulnerability and honest emotion which turns into mutual affection which turns into anakin's celebrity crush becoming very real....meanwhile obi-wan googled anakin and the opening band after the first show/introduction and finds all the stuff about him and padmé being together and that's. that's fine. young love. how sweet. any sort of disappointment obi-wan feels is because he's recently divorced and bitter about it and he's going to have to spend at least half his tour watching the lovebirds snuggling up together.

and even when all the misunderstandings about relationship statuses have been addressed and the pretense has fallen away to leave just attraction, both have to think about their careers - it's all well and good for obi-wan to date someone sixteen years his junior, post divorce, but that's an image he's never wanted to deal with or be associated with. and this is the biggest shot of anakin's career - his best chance to make it in the music industry. in the words of his bandmate, is he really, honestly thinking about risking it for a chance to sleep with The Obi-Wan Kenobi?

but what his bandmate doesn't seem to really understand is that for anakin, obi-wan hasn't been The Obi-Wan Kenobi in a long time. he's just been obi-wan. and that makes a world of difference.

It's gonna be really hard making my Rook who, while probably chill/friendly with Solas, doesn't want to get with him AT ALL when I've got my Lavellan in the back of my mind banging on the walls of her enclosure trying to get a piece of that egg.

And then once I'm finally in the Rook headspace of totally ignoring the fact Solas is hot, Inky presumably gets set free from 'no longer the main character ' jail and I've gotta pivot mentally back to being feral to help her live her dream of smooching his dumb beautiful face.
