Just chilling & watching silly little videos when Her Ladyship shows up, evicts her sister from the couch, lays down where she was and tap tap taps me with her paw. I try to pet her and she tries to bite me. I let her have her spot on the couch, she whines that I am even daring to touch her.

Ma’am /you/ put /yourself/ here.

Mimic Octolings have weak hydrostatic skeletons.

So, they sit like this. They can't stand very well, so they usually crawl.

(this art is gross and outdated here’s the new one lol)

Listening to the sheridan tapes sometimes is chortling at how Van Winkle announces that this is the sheridan tapes and sometimes just sobbing screaming throwing up about the bonds the characters have ✨

Bob Newby wakes up, with a gasp, clutching at his chest, desperately relieved to feel his heart thudding frantically under his fingers. He can still feel those teeth, tearing -

But there's not so much as a scratch on him. And here he is. Home. Safe. In his own bed.

The radio news announcer says it's Halloween.

It takes entirely too long for the feeling of déjà vu to start to set in. And by then, it’s already too late.

...

Bob Newby dies. And then wakes up on the morning of October 31st, 1984. Rinse and repeat.

So far, his attempts to break this strange and terrible cycle have all failed. But if there's one thing he's learning through its seemingly endless loops, it's that he doesn't have to face the strange and terrible alone.

_____

Behold, my magnum opus as the self-proclaimed captain of the good dinghy Joyce/Bob/Hopper, finally released into the wild! It's the fic formerly known as 'groundhog day, except it's halloween and every time bob newby dies it gets faster'!

I know I usually write Teen or All Ages fic, so please heed the rating on this one. Here be adults engaging in Adult Activities. (Eventually.)

This fic is completely written. It has four chapters, which will be going up on Mondays.

Thinkin about things this lovely Friday noon and like.

I absolutely love how everyone I see here has stylistic and aesthetic choices that they deliberately and consistently make when they're designing or playing their characters. Things that pop out to me when I'm scrolling where I can know whose work I'm looking at without referencing the icon or blog name. It's a downright inspiration scrolling my dash and seeing y'all's finely curated characters ❤️

life has massively improved, alas. the mental health do be unstabling. or whatever. Knee Jerk Meme Response-

Everything is much better and we have an actual leg to stand on this month.

I am because of this very fucking tired. we have a place we stay for a year which is amazing. its walkable. its nice. im so fucking tired from the last 4-5 months of moving and I keep having to remind myseld not to implode at every possible little mistep; you have only been free of a traumatic situation for 4-5 months after 22 YEARS not every fuck up is world-shattering anymore.

and thats nice, but the process of re-training my brain is so. fucking. GOD.

soon i'll have room to start my transition and build more self esteem & confidence, and start being a, "real adult." And adressing my likely cptsd. however i can without therapy since, America. thats expensive. and unfortunately very 'spoon-expensive' as a concept for me. am I glad to be right here? right now? yes.

do I feel good or feel the want to live? not right now and not yet.

i dont know if i'll ever have that last thing but eh. i'll keep living out of spite until i can live out of love or something.

Life is, really taxing when youre mentally disabled and never planned to be here this long + never expected things to get better.

so now youre standing in a field of flowers instead of treading water in the middle of the ocean and you go a little insane, because you dont HAVE to move constantly anymore and you CAN lay down and nap but your mind wont let you because really, its only a matter of time until everything shatters again. right?
