Every time I renew insurance which is 40€ because I know I’m gonna use them on yet another new set of lenses cause I keep scratching them. It’s a murphey’s law thing. It’s not just the toats that falls with the butter side to the ground, it’s glasses that always fall with the lenses side.

2/12/23

Today was really disappointing. I was going to say emotional, I typed it out and everything, but honestly, I've had much more emotional days than today this week. This was just... disappointing and hurtful and... full of things going wrong. Like a Murphey's Law kinda day.

I was up until about 2 because my upstairs neighbors were stomping around and talking really loud. Like... "if I paid attention I could likely have eavesdropped their entire conversation" loud. And that wasn't the end of the world, I got to bed at a decent-ish hour and got to sleep quickly. I had vivid dreams, but I don't remember them, maybe I'm overdue for dream journaling again? Hmm...

However... I was woken up at... 8 AM. By the same people. Again, stomping around and carrying on at full volume. On a Saturday morning. I tried to go back to sleep and failed. I made some cereal and went downstairs and passed out in the comfy chair for a bit.

Once I woke up rested, I started the day with some yoga. It was absolutely punishing. I was dripping sweat. I couldn't even do two of the poses because my hands and feet couldn't grip because they were too sweaty. It was really good in the end and I'm glad I did it, but man, that was super intense. I'm not sure if I like that kind of like.. really fast paced yoga. I dunno, it's the same thing but it just feels like... frantic, I guess.

Welp, once that was over I was just... starving. Even after my early breakfast and gigantic dinner last night. I got more food and sat on the floor, ate and watched the Subnautica playthrough. I wanted to stretch my hips out while eating, I think all this sitting in a chair all the time is really what fucked up my hips, neck and back. So I want to try sitting on the floor more. And it kept me from like... losing track of time sitting there and watching for 2 hours.

I hit the showers, then went straight to fill out my disclosure consent form so my new GP (who I have known a total of 15 minutes) can talk to my therapist about my potential ADHD screening. It took no time at all and I got it done. Then I went and finished writing an email to my old therapist to see if he would be willing to consult on all of this in some capacity, just to get as many good people on my bench as possible. Then, when I finally felt comfortable sending that, I looked at the clock and it was 4:30 PM. I was like... "shit, I better make sure I get to the health center before they close", so I checked their hours. They closed at noon. I was given this form on the 6th. And I had this whole plan how I was going to drop this form off and have a super productive day and then drop by any thrift shop or Goodwill or anything I could find and no matter what come home with a bookshelf or a worktable. And... everything just completely fell flat.

All of the places I wanted to go to were going to close at 5, or were closed already. Health Center won't be open again until monday. I was just... my motivation just crashed. And I blamed myself.

I got really upset with myself for somehow losing time, somehow letting the whole day get away from me. I couldn't place it. I had no idea where the time went, I was getting upset. But I was also really hungry still... I have no idea why I've been so damn hungry today. So I made ramen just to carry me to dinner, emergency shit food. And as I was nuking the ramen, my mom called.

After a little bullshit small-talk about like... problems in the workforce in my country right now, and the blatant disregard for quality of life and shit like that... eventually we got past all that... and I started to really explore for the first time where my time went today. And I do that just as authentically with others as I do with myself. I get very frustrated and very hurt and confused. I lament about how I don't know how I can improve if I don't know why this keeps happening, or even what is happening. I don't know how I can go from starting yoga at noon - yoga is 20 minutes, then eat food... probably 30 mins... then shower... 30 mins... then fill out a form that is literally two addresses and a signature... and then add a paragraph to an email and proofread it... and then POOF, it's fucking 4:30 PM. Like... do the math. 20+30+30+15? = 95 mins? Just over an hour and a half? So... am I supposed to believe that I was proofreading that email for 3 fucking hours? Am I supposed to believe I was only able to write one paragraph in that email in 3 hours, and I write this every night and it rarely takes me longer than an hour? Like... please, please tell me at least one other person would be freaked out by that.

The first time I started consciously noticing lost time like that, I assumed I was just blacking out and didn't notice it or something. I had zero proof of this because I lived alone, I just had no other explanation. And I told the Counseling Center in my town my theory, I trusted them with that, and... without any confirming stories or tests, they diagnosed me with epilepsy and put me on anticonvulsants and mood stabilizers.

So... this is a problem that goes pretty far back. And it affects my ability to function in society, as I'm sure one could imagine. And all I want is to just find out what is happening. Did I get distracted by something and I don't remember? Did I hyper-fixate on the email and proofread it over and over and over dozens of times, and it just felt like a couple times? Did I fall asleep sitting up and not notice or something? Like... I legit have no idea how that big of a span of time is just... gone. It freaked me out.

What's worse for today... not just that scenario happening... but talking about it with my mom... she just had no idea how I was reacting to it or why. No clue. She tried to offer to call doctors' offices for me and figure out forms and stuff, which is kind of course and... not really... the problem? Like not even the same ballpark as the problem? I tried so hard to communicate that, but like... she just wasn't getting it. And I just kept repeating over and over how overwhelmed I was by the concept and how I just wanted to know what happened, and "isn't it weird?", and shit like that. And she seemed like she was just standing there like "which bag do you want me to carry in from the car?", not like... actually genuinely concerned about this problem and wanting to investigate it.

Not to mention... after like an hour of that, the impostor syndrome starts kicking in, convincing me that I have no real proof that I'm not subconsciously faking this entire thing. And I'm pestering all these doctors and shit to give me meds that I don't even really want to take for a condition I haven't been diagnosed with since George W. Bush was in office. --- some college kids were running in the hallway outside my apartment being really loud, it's 2:15 AM. I started grumbling and muttering. Oh god, I don't need to be that guy, they're just having fun, it's a weekend! I said to myself, "those are the people posting on the local subreddit," and it made me chuckle, because it's most likely true. A lot of college kids around here.

So yeah, my freaking out led to my mom doing what she calls "trying to fix it", and then fighting with me when I tell her that her solution doesn't even address my problem. After at least 2 hours of that confusion and frustration, we came back around and she helped me explore my theories. I'm just trying to figure out what this underlying thing is underneath my depression, trauma and anxiety. My... emotional overwhelm. The thing that makes me look at tasks around the house and go "that's way too big". Like... okay. PTSD/trauma stuff is... associative, it's trigger-based. I used the skate park in an example with my mom, so I'll use that here, probably not for the first time. So I've thought long and hard about it and I do not have any trauma associated with the skatepark. Anxiety? It's honestly easier when I'm in-the-field. I've said for a while, my anxiety is mostly about the anticipation, the build-up. I can just hit "Go Live" on OBS and I'll be fine after the first 30 seconds. I can handle being in a conflict with a good friend and stay calm. I can handle being lost in the woods when it's getting dark in the winter on a trail I've never been on before, while my therapist I'm with is freaking out about getting stranded. And those aren't just puffing out my chest and bragging, that's legitimate confidence in my ability to handle those situations, and well-founded too. Those are skills I do actually have. And Depression? Depression saps my confidence battery. My motivation and my confidence. Depression is a shitty voice in my head that I'm pretty sure is a driving force behind the impostor syndrome stuff... that kind of effect. But what is getting me... is like... the scope.

This was what I was having a hard time articulating. The scope of these emotions. Some days the exact same issue - going to the skatepark - is like... "well duh, sure I'll go." And some days it's "that would take moving mountains, and the payoff is peanuts." That's what I kept saying, huge investment, little payoff. And what I've been suspecting is that the emotional overwhelm component... the scope of the emotional impact... and how the emotional overwhelm can completely incapacitate me... that feeds the others.

Even now, I feel like I'm full of shit. I feel like I'm looking for a fucking ghost. I feel like I just have PTSD, anxiety and depression mixing together and that's just what it feels like for me, and that's just that. That I struggle to go to the skatepark because of low self-esteem, because I'm anxious people will judge me or something. But like... I'm not. Like... I would say that here if I was, honest. I really don't give that much of a shit, it doesn't register so high on my radar that I'm going to straight up not skate at all, or avoid the skatepark. It just feels like a titanic undertaking to do this task, and it feels like the payoff better be worth the investment. And the investment looks huge and the payoff looks small. So... why is the investment huge? Why is it this whole big thing to go to the skatepark?

It's been years and I still don't have a clear answer for that. And people just treat me like I'm being defiant, like I'm being difficult and deliberately making my life harder. It's an emotional thing. It feels difficult. It feels complex. Like doing the dishes.

Oh my god, I've figured this out before. I've heard people talking about this. Wow, this is a cool moment. So... a thing that happens sometimes... often, I should say... is that once I get started on the dishes or cleaning the bathroom sink or something? I just... I mean, while I'm up... I'll just clean the countertop too... I'll just wipe down the mirror... and then one thing can turn very quickly into laying on my belly on the floor scrubbing dirt out of the grout around the bathtub for an hour. Am I trying to like... be careful about that? To make sure I have a detailed plan or someone around to make sure that I don't get lost or distracted in something? Or am I just used to small things getting inflated into things much much bigger? I don't know, I felt a connection to that.

Agh.

This is what I'm saying, like... I'm too biased to be able to judge this. Yet... I live alone, and have for a very long time, so I have zero perspective to confirm or deny any of my theories. Like... I've come to embrace that I will never have a normal life, but like... I need to figure out some of these things so I can have a more functional life. If I set aside 4 hours to proofread an email... just in case, because "remember what happened last time, and no one will check in to like... snap you out of it"... I'm just going to have to dedicate half a damn day to... sending one email. That's a problem.

It came back up today, my mom thought I was kidding... or like... being melodramatic or something... but I said it 100% serious. If I was smoking cigarettes still I would likely not have this problem. I had myself trained to get up and go outside every... 2 hours or so? Even if I didn't want to smoke, I would drop whatever I was doing and go take a smoke break. If I was still smoking, the email situation would not have happened. And the stimulants in them would likely be helping me focus my thoughts more, as well. I was bummed to come to that conclusion. That, currently, it would be significantly better for my mental health to take up smoking again after over a year off of them (after 18 years of smoking) than for me to be pursuing ADHD meds prescribed from a doctor. Something is not right with that.

I don't want to talk about this anymore, it's stressing me out. I don't have answers here and I'm just tired.

Later in the conversation, we had another... episode. She went off on me. Over something really stupid. I was upset the post office was charging me to forward my mail. I was venting. I felt like the post office kinda has a monopoly on physical mail, and i thought it was a government service? But apparently it's just a private service, despite everyone being required to have a physical mailing address for like... literally anything - a job, an ID, proof of residence, etc. Like, to be a legal citizen you need to have a mailing address... but that mailing address is owned by a private company that has no competition. I don't know, it was weird to me. And fuck me for asking questions on that, because I got laid out for it. And I don't want to get into that, of course. It's not my problem to discuss, I was just on the other side of it.

But what I will mention is that I did a good job of saying very outright when the conflict went way too far, and expressed that I would have to leave if things continued that way. Boundaries, I set really firm boundaries today. And they were kinda... not taken seriously at first, but after a bit it seemed to register. So that was good. And she did regain control of her self after a bit, which is very good progress, and we discussed options on how to reflect on that and address it.

So... not all shit today... just... everything went wrong.

So I made fried rice from scratch after. And my canned peas that I left open in the fridge were off... and I said fuck it and washed them and put them in anyway because they really make the meal. So... hopefully that wasn't Murphey's Law too.

I am completely emotionally drained, and I'm actually having trouble keeping my eyes open. Bed is screaming my name.

🤔 

I guess the reactions of everyone would really hinge on just how much of a willing participant in the experiments Hector was, and how much he knew about what he and the others were doing

It brings to mind that one post about how a lot of scientists irl generally refuse to do anything immoral unless they either have absolutely no idea what they’re actually doing, or have questionable morals themselves. I mean, I could see Hector developing some cognitive dissonance or just going into denial in order to justify to himself doing some pretty fucked up stuff like experimenting with FEV, but that would have to be after he was already in too deep to be able to get out

I can’t remember if we talked about it before or not, but iirc there was a mention a while back of the US military, or some people in it or in vault-tec, who could’ve dug up some of Hector’s past and used it to blackmail him into doing things he didn’t necessarily want to be doing, as well as him maybe going to the US in the first place to help study the original virus to try and help people. So it seems entirely possible that he had legitimately good intentions going in, but that he ended up bullied, blackmailed, and pressured into the more fucked up experimentation, especially once the bombs fell. Not like it’s difficult to convince him to do things he doesn’t necessarily want to do, anyways, or at least convince him to be complicit

Assuming we go with the most charitable situation regarding his participation in the experiments, Darryl would be the most likely to understand, if not forgive. Followed by Butch, and then Derrick. I’m not sure if this is something that Lucia would ever find out about, but she’d be a little all over the place and uncertain, same with Lily. Obv Amsel already knows, to a degree, which means that Elster is going to know as well, but neither of them really give a shit, so those two are exempt. Neither of them would really ask any questions about it while he’s on the island, or even bring it up other than as “hey, Amsel recognizes you from this vault’s records” and then move on without bringing up anything specific

Darryl’s is the most complicated and difficult to explain, but I think she would be the most accepting and understanding of the most charitable situation

Out of my main three, she was in the military and around those circles the longest. I think she’d understand pretty well just how corrupt and skeevy the military was, how closely they worked with vault-tec, and in turn how bad vault-tec themselves were. She would know damn well that the military lying to people in order to get them to do fucked up things, even threatening and blackmailing them, is entirely in the realm of possibility, and she can easily understand why people would crack under that pressure, even if she knows that doing so wouldn’t be the “right” thing to do. She knows that the people who crack also know that

Granted, she wouldn’t know the extents to which the military and vault-tec’s experiments went until post-war, but by the time the war happens, she’s been around them both long enough to have heard rumors, she knows her history, and she’s not so naive (anymore) as to genuinely believe that both groups wouldn’t do something like that

But, depending on how far along their relationship is, chances are good that Darryl knows how easy it is to influence and manipulate Hector, so him getting roped into that stuff when he started with good intentions isn’t at all surprising. In fact, she might even be more surprised if he managed to stay out of the FEV stuff without help from someone else

She’s not naive enough to have never considered the possibility that someone like Hector - especially someone who’s been alive as long as he has - has done questionable or bad things, especially since when she first meets him, he’s already a literal gang leader. And most people have done something bad or questionable in their lives, and she knows damn well that she’s no exception, so there’s very much an “I know I have no right to judge so harshly without being hypocritical” angle

Does she approve of what he did? Of course not. But she does understand why he did it, and - assuming they’re together by that point - she knows him well enough to know that he’s being sincere and honest, that he really does regret some of his choices and actions, and that he feels some pretty severe guilt over some of the things he did

Once Hector explains himself and she can process it, I think Darryl’s response would be something along the (extremely paraphrased) lines of: I know what you did and why, and I know how the system that put you in that situation worked. I think what you did was wrong, but I’m also aware that you know it was wrong as well, and that I’m hardly in any position to judge. However, I think you need to be honest about these things when they come up and not try to hide them from us or from yourself, and certainly not from me, especially since I’ve been honest with you

As for Butch, I think they’d have a similar view as Darryl, but as someone who was very much taken advantage of - and possibly threatened and blackmailed as well - by the same groups that took advantage and used Hector, they can actually relate to his situation, as opposed to simply understanding it like Darryl does

But, while the research they personally did wasn’t nearly as bad as what Hector did, I do wonder if maybe there wasn’t also a degree of unethical things going on. Obviously there was, since what happened to Butch and Lily was one, as was the vault 111 experiment, but I doubt that those were the only examples of the military/vault-tec/the people Butch worked for before they became vault-tec using the technology they helped develop to do shady things

Unlike with Hector, though, I think that Butch really would have been completely unaware of anything unethical being done with their research, since I feel like it wouldn’t happen - or at least wouldn’t become as serious as the FEV stuff - until after they were frozen. And it’s certainly possible that Butch could have had some suspicions for what the military and their employers wanted that research for, but it wouldn’t be anything more than suspicions and wild guesses until they get unfrozen, and they certainly wouldn’t have been able to guess all of the things it ended up getting used for

I’m not really sure if there’s anything they’d want him to do aside from not trying to hide the more bad or shameful things he’s done and trying to not be a shitlord in the future, cause like. He did those things 200 years prior. 200 years is an extremely long time, and no one is gonna be the same person they were after that long, regardless of how much his poor memory might stifle any actual change in him. Besides, it’s not like he or anyone else can really do much about it, unless he can go back in time and prevent himself from doing any of it in the first place. And even if he did, the sole responsibility for the FEV and super mutants does not rest on his shoulders alone, he was just one person among a whole slew of people caught up in it, just like they weren’t the only person responsible for cryo tech and everything that came with it

Now Derrick…��� he’s already not too sure about Hector. I do think that he might warm up to him eventually, especially if Darryl seems to trust him as much as she does, but finding out about some of the stuff Hector did would just reaffirm Derrick’s initial unease with him. Sure, both Butch and Darryl would be able to explain the nuance of the situation Hector was in enough for him to understand it, but understanding it doesn’t make him any more willing to “forgive” Hector or look past the stuff he’s done. Tbh, Derrick would probably just go from being a little unsure about Hector to straight up not liking him

I don’t think that Derrick would be actively hostile to Hector afterwards, or even mean (much). He would have a very “I would rather not interact or deal with you if I can help it” attitude towards him. He would absolutely question Darryl for her decision to not break up with him - assuming they were together when it came out - and would especially question her decision to marry the damn guy, but… he does still trust Darryl and her judgement, so he’s not going to try to convince her to leave Hector, or try to convince other people that Hector is an essentially bad person, he’s just gonna try to keep his distance when he can

Your post about Hector from the other day actually has me wondering, what you think might happen if a trip to the memory den actually did end up revealing some of the stuff that happened in the vault. Of course, it doesn't even have to be some of the more intense stuff that happened, like maybe he gets lucky and it just shows a memory of him in the living quarters with nothing incriminating

But then, it's also very 👀 to consider some of the other stuff that could come up, like the experiments before everything got bad, or what happened after it got bad, or even Hector after he snaps and starts eating people

This is kind of disjointed but hopefully it still makes some sense

To get it out of the way, I didn’t drop a dime on Disney to watch the new Mulan movie, but I have seen it.

The TL;DR, non-spoiler review is, when you compare it to the original animated movie, it’s about a 3/10, but when you judge it as it’s own movie, I think it’s about a 7/10.

Pre-post edit: Before I wrote everything below (which is filled w/ spoilers btw so be warned), I wanted to give this a 7/10 on it’s own merit w/o comparing it to the original, but after really examining the message of this version it’s really difficult to give it a 7/10, so I’ll say 5/10.

It’s not a bad movie, I just think the message it sends is kind of fucked up and a huge 180 from the original, which I know I said I wouldn’t compare it to, and I’m not, but just objectively the messages are contrasting.

The movie isn’t actually that bad, it’s just different and similar in very odd ways. The whole movie felt really conflicted over whether to make it it’s own thing separate from the original, and whether to make it a 1:1 copy of the original. Put into words, I think it just had a bit of an identity crisis.

Some aspects of the movie that they changed from the original don’t immediately make it clear why they were changed, which leads me to believe they wanted to make it it’s own thing, but then they threw in clear scenes that were from the original, and evidently the movie is called Mulan, so clearly they didn’t shy away from that.

Some of the changes made sense. It’s very obvious they wanted to try and go for a “more serious” tone for the film. This is likely why there’s no singing which is the biggest missing feature, but also likely why Mulan is missing her humor from the original, and why her grandmother isn’t in this, and obviously Eddie Murphey’s Mushu and the Cricket. This movie isn’t funny, and it’s not supposed to be, which is fine.

The changes that didn’t make immediate sense to me though were small changes, such as changing her family name from Fa to Hua, or even changing her fake name from Ping to Jun, or the Huns to the Rourons, or the family worshiping a Phoenix instead of a Dragon, or giving her a younger sister, etc. Very small minor changes which don’t ultimately change anything of the film or plot itself so ultimately aren’t a huge deal but then why change them? This is what I mean when I say it seems like they wanted to make this movie their own thing...but also the same.

The scenes they decided to recreate weren’t obviously 1:1, but I think they did a pretty decent job. The Matchmaker scene happens. The lake scene happens. They soldiers talk about what they look for in a woman and all say relatively the same things. Those were pretty cool scenes.

Hands down, the instrumental version of Reflection was the best ever. They used it a couple times and every time I get chills cause I was just fangasming over it. Really minor detail, but fuck was it awesome to hear nonetheless.

The action was actually pretty well choreographed I thought. It really reminded me of Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon with the sort of flying through the air, running on walls, etc.

The actor they got to play the villain, Bori Khan (also different from the original), looks identical to the animated Shan Yu. Like as identical as a real human being can be to an animated character. I honestly thought that was perfect casting. I don’t recognize him, or 99% of the actors in this (honestly the only one I recognized at all was the general from Rogue One), but he was great.

Some of the more major changes were...a bit hit or miss. This movie evidently focuses a bit on what they call Chi, which is kinda magic but also kinda not magic? It all gets vaguely Disney-explained but Mulan’s Chi just makes her a pretty decent acrobatic fighter. The enemy “witch” uses Chi to straight up transform into a hawk or a swarm of bats among other things, but she’s sort of implied to be more advanced with Chi than Mulan is so that’s okay I guess. The Emperor also has Chi and he briefly uses it to...make some fabric defy the laws of physics briefly I guess.

The part about the Chi that bothered me slightly was how they used it to reinforce this sense of otherness about Mulan. Obviously Mulan has always been about a girl defying social norms to save her father and to bring honor to her family and country, but in this version Mulan has Chi, and girls aren’t supposed to have Chi. Only boys can have Chi, and women with Chi are seen as witches and are usually exiled. This is the story behind the bad “witch”, she was exiled for having strong Chi.

The reason why this felt like an issue is because it sort of takes away the fact that Mulan is “just a girl” infiltrating a male-dominated space to defy social norms and do what only men are “allowed” and “capable” of doing. Instead, she’s some pseduo Jedi-like character with abilities that not only show her as more capable than the men, but also not like other women.

So whereas in the original you could point to Mulan as an example and say “See, women can do what men can do” you can’t do the same in this movie because this Mulan actually has something that makes her special and unique that not every woman might have. To use another Star Wars reference, Chi is quite literally the Midichlorians of Mulan. Whereas before any woman could do what she could do, now only some women like Mulan can do what she did.

Another weird aspect was I guess the message of the movie. Like, people say this movie was made for China and uh...yeah, the message of this movie kiiiiinda proves that.

Throughout the training parts, the General emphasizes the virtues they all live by which are engraved on everyone’s swords: “Loyal. Brave. True.” and the conflict stems from the fact that Mulan isn’t being true by hiding her identity, which is why she’s failing as a soldier and I guess a human being and it’s only after she embraces who she is that she starts kicking ass.

There’s also the scene at the very beginning with the Emperor, like in the original, where the soldier tells him about the invaders approaching. In the original, the Emperor was a very kind and caring old man who cared more about his people than anything else. Evidently, they tried to like...make it more realistic or something, I guess, so in this the Emperor doesn’t really seem to care about his people, and he keeps emphasizing in that scene and throughout the movie that they need to “protect the dynasty” which was just weirdly loyalist.

And then of course the end where they’re supposed to repeat the message of the film, the part you’re supposed to take away which is...”devotion to family”. That, along with the previous two things I mentioned, really make this movie feel like a 180 from the original. Whereas the original was about a woman defying social norms to be protect her father and bring honor to her family, this one felt more like a woman defending her country and vaguely reinforcing those social norms...?

Perhaps I misinterpreted, I don’t know. I just thought it was weirdly the opposite message the original sent.

For the drabble prompt: visionshipping and getting caught in the rain

this is like a whole year late i think oopshere are ur lesbeans in the rain

A bolt of lightninglit up the sky, and the resounding boom of thunder that followed shook theentire city and made Isis jump a little in surprise. Her gaze turned skyward,watching in apprehension as fat, grey clouds rolled over the sky and blockedout the sun. Beside her, Mai cursed loudly.

“Damn it.Two percent chance of rain my ass!” She stomped a foot and planted her hands onher hips. “I swear, they only get the weather forecast wrong when I go out.”

Isis turnedto Mai; her perfectly shaped brows were stitched together angrily and she worea pout on her plum stained lips, and the way she pursed them made Isis dream ofdragging their lips together. Her lipstick was such a lovely shade, and sheimagined it would look even better if it was smeared from a few too manykisses. For what must have been the fifth time that day, Isis let her eyesstray to Mai’s body. She wore a form fitting top with her signature plungingneckline, a cropped leather jacket, and a matching black miniskirt. Her boots,also black leather, came up well past her knee and her heels were tall, addingat least another three inches to her height.

Isis felt abit plain standing next to her in a creamy beige sundress, with a flutteringoff the shoulder tier and a slightly cinched waist. The skirt, which fell to alittle over her ankles, billowed dramatically in the breeze. She wore a goldenbelt adorned with gems like lapis lazuli and turquoise to bring some color to theotherwise boring garment. She wore her gold bracelets and armlets as a simplegold chain with a topaz gem. Mai wore a matching necklace, though the chain wassilver and the gem was a diamond. Bestfriend necklaces, Mai had told Isis when she presented them to her on Isis’most recent birthday, but Isis hoped they meant more every time she saw Maiwearing her birthstone around her neck.

She gaveherself another moment to appreciate Mai’s outfit and body before letting hergaze return to a more appropriate level.

Mai glaredat the sky, as if she could make the clouds submit to her will and dispersewith her stare alone. The angry, determined look on her face made Isis smile.

“Isn’t thatalways how it works?”

Mai turnedto Isis, her face softening as she sighed. “Yeah. Murphey’s law.” She shiftedher shopping bags to one hand and laid the other on the small of Isis’ back asshe resumed walking. Isis fell into step beside her, her nerves ignited at thetouch, her fingers curling tight around the handle of a single bag.

Mai was abit of a shopaholic, and was always eager to spend her tournament winnings onnew clothes, shoes, make up, and perfume. She was always asking Isis to accompanyher to the various malls and shops she liked to frequent and Isis always saidyes despite being more of a minimalist with her wardrobe, having a slightlymore limited income, and rarely wanting to actually shop. The stores werecrowded, everything was expensive, and the stores Mai liked to frequent rarelycatered to Isis’ more modest tastes. But she loved spending time with Mai,loved the way her eyes lit up with excitement when she found a garment shereally liked, and loved Mai trying on her clothing hauls and asking for heropinions, or dabbing perfume on her wrist and asking Isis to smell it. So shecontinued to say yes, even though she always had a hard time finding somethingshe actually wanted or needed.

But thistime around her eye had caught a gorgeous blue dress in a shop window they hadpassed, and Mai had talked her into trying it on. The fabric was made ofpolyester but looked and felt like silk, dyed such a deep blue it reminded Isisof the skies above Egypt at night. It was off the shoulder, her favorite styleof neckline, with a ruched bodice that hugged her slender waist and a mermaidstyled tail that showed off the curve of her hips.

She hadabsolutely no idea when she would ever have an occasion to wear something soformal, but it had fit her perfectly and made her blue eyes pop, and she fellin love with it as she stood in the dressing room and stared at her reflection.When she stepped out of the dressing room to show Mai, the hungry look Maipinned her with sealed the deal, and she hadto have it. She carried it home with no plans to wear it out, but she wasalready trying to think of an excuse to wear it around Mai again.

“I swear toGod if it actually starts raining before we get home I’m going to scream,” Maimuttered after another crash of thunder made the shop windows beside themrattle in their panes.

They werestill several blocks away from the train station that would take them home whenthe first raindrops began to fall. Mai didn’t scream, but she did extend a onefingered salute to the sky. Isis giggled, glad that her dress came with one ofthose plastic dress covers so it would be protected from the rain.

“It’s been along time since I’ve been caught in the rain,” Isis mused, glancing up at thesky again. Rain hit her face and she sighed contently; she had always loved therain. Growing up underground had robbed her the simple pleasure of a rainstormfor the first fourteen years of her life. After she reunited with her brothersand promised them they could live above ground from now on rain became herfavorite thing. So she didn’t complain, even as her dress became heavilyspotted with water.

However thelight sprinkling of rain soon turned into heavy sheets that almost felt painfulagainst Isis’ bare shoulders. She and Mai began jogging between storeoverhangs, pausing under the shelter of the occasional awning before dashing tothe next one when it seemed the rain was letting up. Despite their hurriedsteps and the plentitude of awnings, by the time they reached the train stationthey were completely soaked through.

Mai wasgrowling curses under her breath, and Isis could sympathize; she wore more makeup than Isis, which was in danger of running, and she carried more bags thanIsis as well, most of which were the kind of paper that could, at best, allowwater to soak the clothing inside and, at worst, break open.

Mai droppedher bags onto a bench, and Isis was relieved the overhang above the seatingblocked out most of the rain. They were dripping wet, barely an inch of dryskin or fabric between them. Isis’ long, black hair was heavy with moisture,and she rung it out before pulling it into a loose, sloppy bun.

“Well, itdoesn’t look like I’m going to have to throw anything out,” Mai said, pullingIsis’ attention back to her. She blinked, startled by Mai’s appearance. Hercurly mane of hair had lost its volume to the water and trailed down her backin loose, dripping waves. A few strands here and there stuck to her foreheadand cheeks; her face was rosy and pink from their run as well as the chill thatcame with the rain, and her eyeliner was smeared ever so slightly around hereyes.

Mai lookedup at her friend, blinking when she caught her staring. She brushed the hairaway from her face. “What? Do I look that bad? Please don’t tell me I havemascara tears.”

“No,” Isisanswered automatically, breathlessly. In fact, she had never seen Mai moreattractive than in that moment. She couldn’t hold herself back any longer andleaned forward to pluck a kiss from Mai’s berry stained lips.

Mai pulledback in surprise, her eyes wide and her peach face turning red.

Isis’s ownface burned from embarrassment and shame, realizing what she’d just done. “Ohmy gods I’m sorry, I don’t- I didn’t mean- I-”

Mai cut offher stammering by grabbing her face and pulling her in until their mouths werecrushed together. Isis let out a startled moan, her eyes falling closed as Maiworked her lips against Isis’, coaxing her to return the kiss. She did with fervor,her arms winding around Mai’s shoulders and her hands digging into her wethair.

When theyparted they both breathed harder than normal, gazes locking together as soon asthey opened their eyes. Isis fidgeted under Mai’s bright stare, not sure whatto say or what to do, but Mai spoke first.

“You… Allthis time, I thought you were straight.”

Isis let outa bark of laughter, hiding her mouth behind her hand. “I thought you were, too.”

“Fuck,really? I was sending you, like, all the signals!”

“To be fair,I grew up in a tomb. I have no idea that the signals are.”

Mai giggledand rested her forehead against Isis’, even as an old woman on the bench asidefrom theirs rudely cleared her throat. “I could teach you, if you want?”

“I’d likethat.”

Mai smiledand leaned in for another kiss. Isis met her halfway, having just enough timeto glance down at her lips before their lips met.

Her lipstickwas already smeared rather deliciously.

Ah fuck. My friend with severe issues, Milo from Milo Murphey's Law (I mean things always seem to work out in the end??) and Perry the Platipus... With Perry I'd definitely survive so my chances are like, 87.67%?

The last person you texted, the protagonist of the last TV show you watched, and your icon are now your companions during the zombie apocalypse

Are you gonna survive?

Tried something new here... One piece made on 3 panels. I really love how the colors compliment each other and the overall composition and rough look. In all honesty, I had absolutely no plan at all when I made this, and every step of the way I was just hoping that it would turn out alright... But then again, when you over plan in life; things usually fuck out. I guess that's Murpheys law or something... (at Johannesburg) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIvUYYmAWHS/?igshid=z3nvdmnc5jne

How about College AU with the RFA and Minor Trio? Like what their major would be, roommate, stuff like that

I don’t know muchabout collage majors, so I’m sorry if you were looking for specifics. Also Iwasn’t sure if you wanted a MC to be included or not, but I included themanyway. The RFA isn’t running by the way. 

Yoosung

Yoosung was taking a course in     order to become a vet     

The work was brutal

Though he loved it, and he was     sure he wanted to help pets    

It was still brutal

Shares a dorm with Saeyoung &     Saeran

He goes to almost every class

Mainly because he’s scared of failing 

Has all nighters too frequently

Can often be found crying in     the library at 3am as he writes an essay 

He tries to join astronomy club

But he can’t keep up with them     because of his gaming addiction    

Saeyoung fuels this addiction

Saeyoung also messes with him     by hacking into the game and getting a bunch of rare stuff for his own     character     

“I have to defeat him! I     can’t let Saeyoung defeat me!”    

There goes Yoosungs life. 

He meets MC in his class

And

Oh god is he in trouble

Finds he can’t focus in class     because of you

Saeyoung convinces him to talk     to you about a problem he’s having    

So he catches you in the     library one night

“Hey, you’re MC right?     You’re in my vet corse! I was wondering if you could help me with     this…”

He tries to be sly but he’s red     in the face the entire time    

Your friendship and more     blossoms from there on out.    

Also 100% shows you off to     everyone once you get together    

Jaehee

Business & hospitality     major     

She’s a fucking boss

She’s bomb at studying, and you     best bet she gets top of the class    

She works for that shit

She shares a dorm with a girl     she doesn’t know very well, and doesn’t really talk to due to conflicting     interests.     

She’s super invested in the     coffee club at school    

To the point where she becomes     the leader of the group!     

You are also in the coffee club     and you instantly connect with Jaehee, so naturally you two become     friends.     

She’s had friends, but not     friends like you.     

You also met everyone else     through Jaeheee

Jaehee knew Zen, V and Jumin,     and through them she knew Yoosung, Saeyoung and Saeran. 

And some guy named Vanderwood

She has all nighters frequently     as well

Goes to all classes on time     unless she’s sick

Even then she gets someone to     send her notes

A year or so through her     college experience, after she’s calmed down a little about the idea of     college

She realises there’s something     she feels about you that isn’t… just friendship 

She doesn’t say anything, she’s     afraid of your reaction    

You aren’t stupid, you know the     looks she gives you

So you make the first move

It’s slow

But it’s nice

Zen

Drama and Literature major

Teachers pet + ladies man

You’ve seen Monsters University     right? Well, he’s like the Sullivan of the college. 

He has his own fan club

Jaehee takes part in said fan     club     

His roommates are … Jumin and     V!

It’s a little bit of a     nightmare     

His relationship with Jumin is     pretty much the same relationship as cats and dogs…

However

Jumin is very good at calming     Zen down when he gets angry, and bring him back to earth when he’s too     full of himself     

And Zen is very good at     grounding Jumin when he gets a little out of hand, or his ego is too     large.     

And V just tries to make     everyone happy

So it works

He doesn’t study excessively 

“God gave me a gift! Why     would I need to study?”    

He changed this thought after     he failed his first test    

You thought he was a little     arrogant     

He thought you were cute

He needed help with a few     things so you offered to tutor him 

After a few tutoring sessions     he began to flirt, a lot    

He did his best to impress you 

And eventually he just made his     move

Power couple!!!!

You still help him study

Jumin

Business major 

Not that he really needs it

He already knows all there is     to know about business so he’s top of his class

He also doesn’t really need to     study     

Wants a cat but can’t have one     in his dorm     

Also his roommate is allergic

Not that he cares all that much

Because he doesn’t have to     study, and he doesn’t belong to any clubs, his time is consumed by     meetings with his father and arguments with Zen or long chats with V 

You catch his eye when he sees     you struggling slightly in the business class

So like a gentleman he offers     his help

Spoiler: Jumin is a very bad     tutor     

Okay he’s not terrible he just     isn’t good at explaining things on a level you can understand

You appreciate the help though

He flat out asks you if you’d     like to have dinner with him    

No tip toeing around that

You accept, and after a few     more dates and a bit more horrible tutoring you two become a thing

Zen is shocked and wonders if     he’s paying you

Saeyoung

hacking major

Is there a hacking major?

Computer science & programming     major

Top of the class but rarely     shows up

When he does he’s unusually     reserved and quiet in the back of the class, not talking to anyone

Shares his dorm with his     brother and Yoosung

Eats like a true college     student

He studies but it doesn’t look     like studying

Like he’ll be on his computer,     and it will look like he’s playing a game

But he’s actually looking     through the games code    

This is also how he messes with     Yoosung

Should he hear even a peep out     of someone about Saeran in a bad way    

They can kiss their grades     goodbye

Admittedly hacked into the     schools system before in order to change Saerans grade

You meet him when you sit at     the back of class one day because all of the front spots were taken

And you realise that Saeyoung     is not quiet, or reserved, he just doesn’t have anyone to talk to

Because he doesn’t shut the     fuck up when you sit next to him    

Everything out of his mouth is     a meme or a sly comment about the professors work ethic 

Unfortunately you were     struggling a little with the class    

“Alright then smart guy,     if you know so much then teach me”

“Deal”

Well that was easy

His personality just gets     goofier every time you see him    

Eventually you just become a     thing

You both act like it wasn’t a     big deal

But it was

Now he helps you complete the     course and you listen to his stupid jokes! 

Saeran

I saw someone headcannon Saeran     as an art major

I agree

Art Major

He shows up to class a lot but     sometimes leaves during lectures 

Sometimes it’s boredom,     sometimes it’s panic attacks.    

Studies but not intensely

He doesn’t really want to     become an artist, he’s just always liked art

And he’s pretty good at it

He just had to pick a major and     art happened to be one of the first things he thought of

He shares his room with his     brother and Yoosung

He likes Yoosung, but he’s     waaaayyyy too gullible    

He also doesn’t talk to any of     Saeyoungs other friends that much, he tries though

He meets you when he sits next     to you in class one day    

Normally you’re at the back by     yourself, so your comments can go unnoticed

Not today

“Are you fucking- this is     not a hand”

“What the fuck is     Picasso”

“If I don’t eat dinners     for the next week I can afford new paints”

He looks at you strangely, you     catch his look, you smile and put your head down

He looks over to see you     writing ‘fuck colour theory’ over and over again

“I can help you with that     if you’d like”

You were surprised 

You accepted his help     nonetheless     

because

Fuck colour theory

It took some time, and patience     and a forceful push from Saeyoung    

But eventually he confessed 

Artsy couple!!

You often doodle on each     other’s arms

V

photography Major

Obviously

Studies hard, but not too hard

Wonderful student and friend to     all

Golden boy

Shares his room with Zen and     Jumin

Which can be overwhelming at     times

But they’re both very nice, to     him at least, and they do try to get along sometimes

He wouldn’t be in any clubs

He prefers going out and taking     pictures, or hanging out with Jumin    

You met through class

You were paired up for a     project together

“One will be the muse, and     the other the photographer”    

Theoretically, you should be     the muse, right?

Ohhhh no

You force kindly ask him to be     the muse for this project    

He’s too nice so he says yes

The two of you joke and laugh     the entire time     

You manage to get some lovely     shots of him smiling and laughing, when he things you aren’t taking the     picture

Sly V probably managed to     skilfully ask you on a date    

“We should do this again,     however you are to be the muse next time”

“It’s a deal”

“How about its a     date?”

Sly

He helps you with studies and     is always willing to be your muse    

Also he has a lot of pictures     of you

Cutest couple!!

Vanderwood

listen

I don’t know

I don’t fucking know what he’d     do

My headcannon, if he wasn’t     dragged into the mess of the Agency, would be he went to college to major     in psychology and chemistry    

I DONT KNOW!!!!!!! Let’s just     go with it

Psychology & Chemistry     Major!

He’s very reserved, he just     gets what he needs to done    

Doesn’t fuck around

He only really talks to     Saeyoung and sometimes Saeran, other than that he’s usually alone

A lot of people are weary of     him 

He lives in a dorm alone     because no one wanted him as a roommate because he works better alone

You met bc neither of you were     looking where you were going and you ran into each other

“Watch it” He growled     at you

Excuse me?

Excuse me??

“You watch it, you’re the     one walking around like a fucking mountain, don’t expect me to step out of     your way, asshole”    

The sass was amazing

He literally had to watch you     watch away because what the fuck just happened?? 

Of course, Murpheys Law,     Saeyoung saw all of it and teased Vanderwood for his ‘crush' 

He punched him

Gradually the two of you ran     into each other more, around campus, at the library, going in and out of     lecture rooms and hallways    

Until you just sat down next to     him in the library and asked for his help on your chemistry assignment

“You’re in my chemistry     lectures??”

“Ya have been for a year     thanks for noticing”    

It’s a slow, painful process     but the two of you become friends    

And then more…

Saeyoung prides himself on     being right about the two of you
