Happy one-year anniversary of rdo being declared dead! Here’s a list of things that will never be added or fixed/finished now! Yeehaw

The Land of Opportunities. We’ll never get a proper conclusion to the Mrs LeClerk storyline.

Blood Money. Yes blood money was 99% a letdown/absolute joke but I still wanted to see some kind of conclusion to stealing the gems.

Also just more smaller blood money contracts. Those little 3-part missions were fun and y’all can argue with the wall idc

Expansions to ALL the roles, like rockstar promised.

Meeting the VDL gang. Idk, it just bothers me that many of the strangers in online are antagonists and/or the creepiest strangers you could possibly have picked (im looking at you, aberdeens). Seeing the gang before the blackwater incident, even if it’s in a very small/limited way, would have been a million times more interesting. (and probably brought in a lot more players)

(putting the rest below because this got rather lengthy and i’ve been adding to it for a while)

Fixing all the shit broken with the naturalist role. Legendary animal spawns are inconsistent as fuck, the Protect Legendary animal free roam event has a 50/50 chance of bugging out and not finishing, i dont remember the harriettum animal transformations ever working properly, etc, etc.

Minigames! I wanna play five-finger filet! I wanna get absolutely destroyed at dominoes! (i still have no idea how to play dominoes) High-stakes poker out on the riverboat!

solo/private lobbies!

all the unreleased colour variants of the quickdraw club items. (i would pay so much gold for to get my grubby little hands on different variants of the rowberrow shirt).

Alternate gunbelts. I just.. I hate the way the off-hand holster sits. It’s ugly, looks impractical (i read somewhere ages ago that a holster like that is meant for when youre on horseback/sitting and need quick access, but dont quote me on that), not to mention how badly it clips through the character model, so i would gladly have paid a lot of gold to get a gunbelt that has both the holsters at the hips instead of ...that.

More horses? All the story mode characters’ horses, and the sable champange foxtrotter, the reverse few spot appaloosa, and whatever the fuck old man jones arabian is. Just... I would have loved to see some of the exsting breeds get the foxtrotter/turkoman/mustang treatment with some new colours and improved stats (ESPECIALLY the non-multiclass breeds, who only have 2-3 colours and rockstar tend to forget exist)

while on the topic of horses - more saddles and stirrups and customization options in general. I wanted some stirrups that give the +2 speed/acceleration that dont look like a huge hunk of plastic. And more colourways for the collector saddlebag. And the option to have the lantern harness without the actual lantern. And more loose/unkempt mane colourways that actually match more than one or two horses. And- And-

Properties :’( I imagine they were probably meant to be added together with the conclusion to LeClerk’s story, ending with us clearing our name and unlocking the option to buy a homestead of some sort. (Idk how fun properties would even be tbh, but i hate that it’s just never happening)

speaking of things that everyone and their mother were yelling at rockstar about since the dawn of time: HEISTS. Proper ones. That have multiple steps and multiple ways to do them. That pay well.

Some sort of gifting system between players. A shared lockbox for your posse where everyone can deposit and withdraw items or money. Actual trading. Idk, just let me give my low level friend some ammo dang it.

Revamping some areas of the map that would have been cool to see “before” how they were in story mode. Like Colter and Hanging Dog before it was abandoned, or Van Horn before the sheriff’s office burned down. They could have done a bunch of interesting things w the map if they had done more of a time skip between online and the main story.

A proper photo mode for online. Plop us into a temporary solo session and let us fuck around with poses, props, camera settings, lighting etc etc.

Also just... fix the photo booth maybe?

In general, if they’re not going to do anything with rdo, they could have turned it into more of a sandbox thingy/situation and have ended things on a better note and still opened it up for people to make their own fun.

I'll shut up now.

21 september 2024

oops missed some days again. had a great night with our friends that came over! the weather that day was cloudy and the wind was starting to feel cool so we had dinner and watched twilight. H had never seen it! S, Josh, and I were calling out all of the silly stuff and making jokes. real twilight fans know how bad/silly/mormon it is and love it anyway. the two shifts i had at work were alright. training new staff ain't for the weak, especially in healthcare. yesterday was the first out of 3 days off and someone text me at 9:45 to quit w/ no warning AND my RDO has JUST started 10 days of PTO so we had to rearrange the schedule to fill her shifts and then I had to skip a link in the chain of command and email everything to the VPO since my RDO is on vacation. all is well now and i don't have to pick-up on any days i'm supposed to be off so that's good! just had to move one of my shifts from one clinic to another. Josh and i are starting to finalize wedding plans and vendors and payments. everything is so close! only reason i am surviving work these days is because i have this wedding/honeymoon to look forward to. especially because it lines up with the first big wave of patients coming to the clinics for respiratory illness season, the REAL moneymaker for urgent care. while i'm sipping on brunch mimosa's and visiting museums w/ my honey in NOLA, my staff will be knee deep in strep/flu/COVID/culture/PCR swabs. respirartory season is a BITCH but it is also so much fun. patient volume nearly doubles and we get our asses kicked, but i always feel so accomplished after a shift. i'm sure it'll be a hell of a time jumping back into work after the wedding festivities! 2024 is coming to an end so quick! it's been one of the best years of my life, if i'm being honest. i've picked up a few old hobbies, my social life has improved greatly, i'm crushing it at work, i like the way i look and dress most of the time, my friends are all happy and healthy!! wowie. :) long post today but i guess i just had a lot of thoughts rolling around in my brain. i may be be very stressed right now, but i know it'll be worth it when the year ends and i get to reflect on everything this year has brought me. <3

February 3, 2024

It's only been about two and a half weeks since my last entry, which i think is pretty good. i don't like it when i go months without writing, and it's usually concerning if i'm writing daily; i'm usually "going through something" and having a terrible time, so two and a half weeks seems okay, although i think i would prefer at least once a week.

recap: january 14: i did manage to go the new abbey church. again we held hands, again we shared, again i cried, moved by both the sermon and the sharing, and afterward, spoke to the lady next to me who invited me to lunch with some other ladies, but i had to decline as i had made lunch plans with my mom that i'd already postponed a few times. i made my amazon return at whole foods of my broken heater, then had lunch with my mom.

january 15: mlk day, and hence a holiday. i met up with grace k and maddie and we went to the tujunga pond. we didn't catch anything but it was still pretty fun. maddy piled rocks on top of each other, rolled around in the dirt, and got two bites, but the water was super green and gross and i didn't see any fish or signs of fish (besides the two bites.) i think we had in n out afterward and it was really nice hanging out and maddy is in a very cute stage.

january 17: in office day.

january 18: facetime appointment with dr. sobhani who confirmed that i should be taking 300 ml of lamictal, which was comforting because i wasn't sure if it was lamictal or lexapro that i should have been taking. after work i went to paperback brewing in glendale and met up with grace y and caroline and we caught up.

friday was my RDO and i went to lana's and we all went to an airbnb at lake arrowhead. unfortunately there was no promised snow as it had been too warm, but it did rain, and the airbnb was disappointing but i did play with the kids a lot and they did get to do some tubing 30 minutes away on some manmade snow so i think they had fun. however i learned that three days and two nights with a six and three year old is just way too much for me and i don't think i'll propose another multi-day outing until they're a bit older and more independent. still i'm glad i went with them because i had wanted to get closer to the kids. i feel like a fairly absent aunt.

january 22: grace y and i visited caroline at the kaiser on sunset. over the weekend we learned that she had had a very random seizure, blacked out, and was in the hospital. i teared up a tiny bit seeing her in the hospital bed, with a hospital gown, but we tried to cheer her up while listening to what had happened. grace and james brought burritos from sonoratown, and we ate them and they were good. caroline joked that everytime we hung out, something bad would happen to her. after our thai dinner, she unexpectedly had to go to the hospital for an early and difficult multi-day birth, and then after drinks she had a seizure. i knew she was joking but i felt a bit bad.

january 24: in office and afterward went to ktown to help my dad as he has to move again. he had previously asked if he could move in temporarily, and then if he could store stuff in my living room, but he eventually decided to get a storage unit but i stopped by to pick up some stuff that my mom might want, and he also treated me to noshi although we didn't talk much and it was a bit strained.

january 25: coworked with danielle all day, then went to a mexican place afterward and drank very strong margaritas.

january 27: had a VBA's volunteer interview in the morning, then cleaned the condo, and went to celebrate steph's birthday. we picked up rynn, her friend with one leg, and all tried to make it to a planetarium show at griffith, but due to the traffic, lack of parking, and rynn's mobility issues, i had to just drop them off, park at the greek theater, then drive back up to pick them up. afterward we met LD at the little tokyo plaza, had izakaya, steph and i drank way too much sake, i decided to pay the $300 bill, we went to X Lanes to play arcade games, then ended the night back at my place with steph, rynn and i shooting each other with nerf guns until 2.am.

january 28: i awoke feeling very tired and mildly embarrassed at last night's shenanigans and resolved not to drink so much (again.) i lounged around all morning, didn't go to church, but did meet up amy for lunch at bea bea's in burbank. i think i came home and then continued to lounge for the rest of the day.

january 29: pretty uneventful day, worked from home, did some chores, but also felt this weird sense of heaviness as well as impending doom. i don't know why and i couldn't trace it to any particular thought, but i felt nervous and anxious.

january 30: after working from home, had facetime with kelda and for some reason cried the whole time. i think it was cathartic but i know i cried a bit about jadai, and how i felt betrayed by her, and of all the things she loved about me, she must not have, or she just changed, and decided to love all the things about someone else. we discussed how i was watching a lot of youtube videos of people sort of "getting what was due to them," like youtube influencers who would scam their fans, and then get caught, or "entitled karens" who'd get arrested. she figured that it was because i wanted to see the worst of humanity, but this time i concluded that in a sense, i wanted to see justice prevail, i wanted to see humanity right its wrongs, i wanted people to get what was due. and i think a part of that was that i felt wronged, and i felt that what jadai had done and was doing was wrong, and not that i wanted her to get hurt or suffer per se, but i wanted her to sort of be able to see how she was hurting people, how reckless she was, and for something to make her stop.

january 31: in office day and joyce treated us to sonoratown, and i had two tacos and one very spicy bean and cheese burrito.

february 1: i was feeling a bit anxious about having no plans for the weekend. i had felt exhausted by last week's activities and had initially felt relieved that i didn't have so much to do, but the thought of a completely bereft weekend, with no plans, no one to see, and no one to do anything with filled me with panic. tracy was going to see ash's family, lana had a litany of sports with sawyer, and i didn't want to go to long beach/harbor city to hang out with the long beach gaysians. i also felt weirdly distant from lorena and also knowing that she worked weekends, didn't want to reach out to her. randomly amir hit me up and we ended up meeting cesar, first to go to a scary dive bar in arcadia, and then to barney's beanery in pasadena where we ended up having a decent time and heading out around 11pm.

february 2: friday, my RDO. for some reason yesterday or the day before i had decided to go to this one-woman show at the lyric hyperion, partly because it looked well-reviewed, partly because it was at the lyric hyperion in silverlake and not in hollywood or west hollywood, and mostly because i had no other plans. tracy and steph wouldn't/couldn't make it, so even though i had just lounged around allll day, i almost didn't go, but finally did, wearing the same thing that i'd worn all day which was some black joggers and my grey rainier sweatshirt.

oh my gosh, that was the best experience of my life. somehow i got a middle front row seat, just within a few feet of Sophie Santos, and her show was all kinds of wonderful. she was funny, she was vulnerable, i laughed and cried and related so much as she discussed getting off of antidepressants without tapering, being broken up with who she thought was the love of her life, fighting feelings of abandonment and lack of self-worth, but also singing, doing impressions, and at some point, playing the guitar. the BEST part was that she interacted a lot with just me, possibly because i was in the front, or possibly because i was alone, who knows, but there was a part where she talks about her ex wanting space, and then the projections around her showed space, and she suddenly came right up to me, put a battery in my left cupholder which also held my phone, handed me a spaceman disco ball, and told me to shine it on her. i immediately shined it on her face and she quipped, "not right Now!" and everyone laughed. she went on with her show then nodded at me and said "now" and then i held it for her while she finished her song. later on, she smoked an imaginary cigarette and then when her ex's mom came to the imaginary door/house, she ran to me and told me to hold her cigarette. i think i took it like a joint and she quipped again, "have you ever held a cigarette?" and everyone laughed again. during a part where she talked about kind of coming into her own, she unbuttoned her long sleeve blouse/shirt, then threw it to me, and i caught it and just held it the entire time, not knowing what to do, not knowing if i could take it as a souvenir or what. in another bit called "rebound," where she sings about rebounding with whoever, she danced very sultrily up to me, almost like a lap dance, and as she got closer asked, "is this ok?" to which i must've nodded, eyes wide open, in a daze, and she looked straight at me, coyly smiling, just so fucking attractively, and basically gave me a very PG lapdance, before swinging by, sitting next to me, then going back to the stage. i was in love. or infatuation. or whatever. but. i was awestruck. gobsmacked. i had never been so physically and mentally attracted to anyone in my life. i was just stunned as i clung to her shirt.

after the show i waited a bit, and most people streamed out, but a few approached this lady who seemed to be a collaborator/producer type, and i was going to congratulate her on the success of the show, and possibly give her back the shirt so she could return it to sophie, but then sophie herself came out of the curtain and started getting her electronic stuff and i was able to approach her directly and return her shirt and say something like, that was the best show i'd ever seen, and she shot out her hand, shook mine, and said " i'm sophie," and i said "i figured." then i looked around and asked if i could do anything to help, she declined, and i asked if she was going to hang around afterward a bit, and she said she would, so i left.

after i bought a beer, i asked the cashier if i could take one of her flyers, and he said sure, then i walked out, still in a daze. some ladies stood around and said stuff like, "you did great! i'd be so afraid to be in the front, that's why i sit in the back!" and things like that and we chatted a bit before they returned to talking to each other. i eventually asked if they would mind if i could just stand with them, since i felt a bit silly standing by myself, and they said i could, and then some of the production people came out, like the lady who did tech, and her boyfriend, and i said hi and then finally sophie herself came out and i just stared silently for a few minutes before she kinda turned to me and introduced herself again and i said, " i was the lady in the front," (since she had already introduced herself to me and it seemed as if she had forgotten,) but she said, "i know. we had a moment." and i almost died. I ALMOST DIED.

after just a bit, they were like, okay, we're heading out to "blue" or something, and then they all left and i tossed out my remaining beer and went to my car, then to ruby fruit because the night was so anticlimactic, then home.

when i awoke, i felt this kind of ... craze come over me. all i could think of was sophie, and how sultrily she danced, and how attractive she was, and i could feel that old feeling of being obsessed. i followed her on instagram, messaged her about how much i enjoyed the show and compared it to "fleabag," and went through her page and liked about a year's worth of posts. she eventually messaged me back her thanks and for being a "good sport" and i did all i could not to message her back within half a second, and managed to wait about four minutes before i messaged her again. she responded, but with just a pretty short and generic response, which i "liked," or "loved" possibly, then felt all sorts of craziness. just the old sense of heightened feelings, of emotion, of growing obsession. i even teared up a little, scared at the magnitude of my feelings. i bought her book on amazon, i looked up her next shows, i contemplated driving to san franciso to see her sunday show, and i just felt so out of control, i felt myself spiraling, i saw myself following her, trying to get close to her, going to all of her shows, getting her autograph in my book and/or on the flyer.

i saw her dancing sultrily in front of someone else, i felt the stabs of jealousy that she could do to someone else what i felt was so special with me, i imagined her doing this every night with some other girl, i imagined her being gone, touring for weeks at a time, and always assuming she'd cheat on me. i felt my own ordinariness, i felt so small and weak and stupid, that she was so smart and charismatic and charming and yet sexy and funny, just everything, just perfection, and i felt myself idolizing her. i felt myself wanting to just be there, even just marginally, to just watch her from afar, to touch the hem of her shirt, to water her plants and feed her cats while she was out of town, to fill a seat at the table if someone canceled last minute but they'd lose their reservation if they couldn't fill it.

and then i felt again how plain i was, how unextraordinary. i was a cubicle worker living in glendale. i slept 12 hours a day and would just eat nutritionless pasta. i stared at my phone way too much. i had insurance and stuff, but was just so lame.

and then i realized how i was falling into old patterns. suddenly she was the DJ and i was cleaning her apartment, watering her plants, organizing her shelves, just to be proximal to her. she was lorena, and i was obsessively watching her ig, seeing new posts, noticing whenever she removed something or adding something, knowing that if she worked at a restaurant or a bar, i'd figure out her schedule and go every shift just to get a glimpse of her. i felt the spiral. i felt my weakness and her power over me even when she didn't ask for it, even though she was completely unaware of it, even if she wanted nothing to do with it.

i felt nervous, i felt anxious, i kept tearing up, and i just didn't know what to do with myself, just so restless. i'm trying to tell myself: she's a performer. she connects with the crowd. that's her strength, and that's her job. there was nothing special about you. she does this every night with a new person. she didn't follow me back on instagram or invite me out to whatever bar the rest of her group was going. she has 5,000 followers and probably gains another 100 every time she does a performance. she's a star. she wins awards and presents at awards and does workshops. she's made it, and she's only going to go to higher heights and she has already forgotten me even though she's made such an indelible impact on me.

i feel myself going crazy. i'm embarrassed. it feels like regression. i feel stupid and fat and lazy and unimpressive. i thought i was funny but she's exponentially funnier than i am. i feel my lack. i feel like crying constantly. and it makes me feel unhealed. i texted danielle and she reminded me that this has everything to do with me and nothing to do with her and i know this, i know this fully, and i'm tailspinning and i need to get a grip but i feel out of control.

i know this has happened before. adriana, regina, sarah, (ooh that's a lot of names ending in "a",) nida (omg), patricia from portugal, and then shy, DJ, and lorena.

with adriana, nida, patricia, DJ, and lorena, i was convinced, conVINCED that i would never stop pining over them, loving them, etc., but eventually for all of them, i did. some of these obsessions lasted years, decades even, and some faded within 1-2 years, besides wholly and fully believing i never could.

i really need to get a grip. i don't want to tell anyone about my feelings because i know they'll just roll their eyes and go "here we go again." when i told lana about my experience, she said, "and did you buy her dinner and drinks too? that's what you do. i've never seen someone fall in love as fast as you do."and i don't want to expend a ton of energy on this idolization, on another dream, on another chase that i'll never fully realize, when i should be having real relationships with real people, who are at my own level, in my own stupid league.

i'm not feeling so good. all sorts of crazy. a familiar crazy. but i want to work this out faster than the others. i can't keep falling into these patterns of yearning after someone who will never have me. i cannot. i must not.

week ahead: sunday: church hopefully. tuesday: some movie hopefully in my quest to watch more movies. wednesday: in office friday: dr. appointment saturday: nothing set, but hopefully drop off some e-waste looks like a slow week. hopefully i can get in at least a few walks, an episode or two of The Read, finish my book, journal, etc.

Gamer Moment

Dirt you are so cool and sexy do you play video game? YES! I play Minecraft, TESO, GTAV, RDO, Dead by Daylight and some Pony Town (we don't talk about pony town). If you want to play with me feel free to send me a ask or a message and I'll give u my gamer tags! If you're interested in finding out my play style first:

1. Minecraft: Bit of a jack of all trades but shit at interior design. I get fidgety quickly and switch through builds quite rapidly. I know some decent rudimentary redstone (Or at least can follow tutorials). My primary love is working with villagers I will not shut up about villagers. 2. TESO: I'm a health tank orc Templar! I play very barbarian style just rushing straight in and smacking repeatedly. I love hanging out in the rift and I'm looking for a guild rn 3. GTAV: I haven't played in a minute but I honestly just like driving around in stolen cars. I'm up for anything in it though I'm not gonna be good. 4. RDO: I'm a sharp shooter and a brute at the same time. I'm fucking feral in rdo but my main drawback is I'm crazy obsessed with Gus and will derail entire missions to go sell him shit. I have problems when I think about him 5. DBD: I play a lot of Jonah lately! I'm a survivor main and rotate through a few different crazies. Ash, Mikaela, Dwight, Ace.... Just like a lot of sillies. I tend to be a gen rusher Pony town is just fun aesthetically I don't make friends there. Warning: I will not shut up about OC's during gaming, I will not shut about old men.

My wife had to leave back to Hungary with her partner and it makes me so sad but life goes on and thankfully digital means exist 🥹🥹🥹 I really do hope one day we could try and live together for a bit.

Even so! I am super grateful for the week they were here and we got to spend time with my parents as well since they dote on her. I did however realise that we as a family are all history geeks and wow. We don't know when to stop talking about stuff hahaha 😂

The one wish I had was just that my work and dissertation weren't so active in my head whilst they were here but that wasn't fortunately possible. So today was my first day back and I already felt the massive desire to not exist in this environment (by this I mean stay in bed and pretend I don't have work hours).

I am really worried about a balance. I have already had a burnout and like everyone I just want to have a manageable ratio between relaxing, fun, work and responsibilities. So! I got these:

The first is a notebook I bought at the Panorama Museum in Wroclaw, Poland and will be used for all my dissertation thoughts. It depicts one part of the Panorama painting that you can see in the museum and me being a history geek, I love it. I like using the digital such as notion but I think the physical writing would force me to analyse what I'm reading even more.

The second is a journal I bought at the Mauerpark Flee Market when I went last December. I had a journal but unfortunately I left it a friends house almost two years ago and i haven't been able to get it back yet but writing would do me good to dump the thoughts from my already full brain so! I won't lie reading Arthur's journal in RDR2 was also really inspiring again. I am positive it'll help me make time for myself in terms of contemplation.

Lastly, when I was in Lisboa, I managed to contact a second hand shop and get the only copy of the portuguese edition of a research Series about the Portuguese in the Americas. The title is "Land, As Far As the Eye Can See: Portuguese in the Old West" and I am very excited to read it. Especially since I always had an interest in the Old Frontier but now with having played RDR2 and beginning to play RDO it's even more. Especially since this gives me little gemstones for an OC I am making (so far her name in my mind is Adelaide Barros, or as they anglicised everything back then she'd be better known as: Addie Clay) 🤩

I am hoping the week continues well with it being my birthday on Sunday and I hope everyone else is having a good time 💐

#cav rambles #pensamentos de autocarro #I have decided all rambles on public transport shall be labelled that hahaha

Wip Tag Game

Wip Tag Game: (tagged by @possumteeths)

rules: post the names of all the files in your wip folder regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. let people send you an ask with the title that most intrigues them, and then post a little snippet of it or tell them something about it.

For this imma tag uh,,, um,, hm,,, all my friends are artists help damn literally everyone’s been tagged I think before for this uh,,, well um,,, HEY YOU. YES YOU. READER. IF YOU HAVEN’T DONE THIS, CONGRATS YOU’RE NOW TAGGED. only do it ofc if you want, but if you want an excuse to do it, just slap my name down for who you were tagged by. go crazy go stupid have fun promote your own work :)

My works on under the cut because I’m awful at being brief lol

Oh dear, hm, okay. I have a lot going on, but there’s only one I’ve really been working on at the moment lol, but here yall go in order of how recently I’ve worked on them:

“Swinging on the Rails (train AU)”:

I was trying to do NaNoWritMo with this but then midterms stole my kneecaps lol. I have a few chapters for this up on ao3 already but essentially its a historical fiction romance fic between my fallout OC Sawyer and a friend of mine’s OC Baron. Takes place in London during the 1920s and is a slowburn fic about them slowly getting to know each other and falling in love yada yada yada. Baron’s a railway worker and Sawyer’s an architect who rides his train every day. Eventually there’ll be some assassin’s creed stuff tied in because I love Syndicate to death and ofc there’ll be some fallout characters popping up as I write more.

“Bawyer meeting number 2 electric boogaloo”:

This is technically my friend’s fic, but she’s having me write some of the dialogue and bouncing ideas off of me for it so imma include it in this for funsies. Basically is a small fic from Baron’s POV of him and Sawyer meeting up from the first time post-war with Elder Cross’s BoS negotiating with the MM about the missing Prydwen and her crew. Baron was the trusted pilot with transport to the very intense meeting and Sawyer’s the General who’s absolutely pissed the BoS are once again harassing the Commonwealth and wants them to leave them alone. Neither recognize each other for a solid ten minutes because they were convinced each other had died when the nukes fell ;w;

“Jared snippit lmao”:

I actually just posted this W.I.P. a few days ago but I’m considering adding more maybe next year. Its about my RDO OC, Jared and his backstory leading up to the beginning of the game. Tossed in some ~demonic possession~ stuff to explain RDO’s game mechanics also ;)

“Fallout Fin”:

Oh lordy, I really need to work on this one more since clearly people love it haha, but it was originally my MerMay fic and then,,, then I kept writing and,,, now I have a whole story planned out and,,, haha yeah. It details an orca mermaid merman? Sawyer has an orca tail lol- but it details him meeting with a ~mysterious diver~ and ends up getting captured by the BoS (Brotherhood of S.E.A.L) for research. It’s going to be a slow burn and I have so many plans for it lmao

“Maxson/Prime fic :)”:

I’ve mentioned this fic in a previous post and lowkey writing it stresses me as I don’t usually do a lot with Maxson? Sawyer hates his guts so I haven’t ever,,,, done anything with him but. It’s a fic about Maxson surviving Prydwenburg and being saved by Liberty Prime. I don’t want to give away too many details, but I’m pumping a lot of love into some minor characters that fallout really dropped the ball on and who I feel the fandom forgets about often- and as with all my works ofc has some juicy juicy angst and questioning to one’s own humanity in it. Maybe there’ll be romance between a synth!Prime and Maxson, who knows honestly, maybe it will have it, maybe not, maybe its maybelline

“Lance fic?”:

I’ve been wanting to write a fic from a certain AI’s perspective who’s barely been mentioned on his blog and I really need to explain at some point in depth because I love him dearly but uh,,, yeah so the fic so far is just me struggling how I want to start his story and how I want to write him given,,, bodiless AI,,,, and also where I want the story to go as his is heavily involved with Baron’s when it comes to him escaping the Enclave and he even throws electronic hands with President Eden at one point who I know little to nothing about since I haven’t played fo3 yet but I still think its fucking hilarious

“warhammer au fic”

This is a well beloved au between my friend and I with our two boys (Sawyer and Baron ofc) in the warhammer 40k universe because we all have brainrot and I’ve fallen headfirst into the lore lol whoops. I uh,,, tried to write the beginning of Sawyer’s side of the story with him as a techpriest being transferred to Baron’s legion as a medic or,,, something but then I spent four hours studying the adeptus mechanicus ranks and then realized we still needed to homebrew the legion and don’t even have a name for it and also there’s so many specific names to all the equipment they use in this universe and

anyways, only got a page done. did research. cried in the shower. bought Horus Rising in hopes that reading it would better prep me for writing about the universe. might fuck around and find an admech book to read also. I want to write the story so fucking bad but I also want to do the lore justice.

“ranch fic ranch fic”

So you know how Baron and Sawyer during their pre-war military days how they used to spend breaks together and I mentioned at one point Baron spends a week with him at his ranch? No? Well it happened and this is a cute fic about it that I was just going to,,, write cute domestic shit in it and some,,, nsfw stuff you know,,, yeah,,

“monster au bby :)”

yall are probably tired of be at this point but this is yet another Bawyer fic god help me I have brainrot for these two that we made for Halloween and I never got around to really writing much for. Essentially Sawyer is a vampire, Baron is a previous military experiment (instead of super soldiers its werewolves with trauma). Baron is struggling with dealing with the aftermath of everything and his sister finds out from one of Sawyer’s old friends (and ex-wife but that was centuries ago haha) that he’s a lonely vamp looking for a roommate. (insert: and they were roommates gif) Has a lot of the fallout cast in it and not really a full story yet? just a bunch of ideas we’ve tossed around. Fun stuff although I’ve only written a page or two so far for it. Some day I’ll write more, its good shit

#wip tag game #again #sorry there's not many funny haha names this time around #they used to be funnier then I had an issue of not knowing what was what #a fic I finished this summer for the longest time was titled as damn i really need a name for this series #if was first dance with danse lmao #homo depot def has been my peak at naming #feel free to ask me more about these #why did i ramble more than needed about them? i need this post to hold me accountable to finish them sometime hopefully during winter break #my posts #my ao3 works kinda?

^^ me when i lie // under the cut there is about 2 THOUSAND words of just rambling about 6? of my ocs.. enjoy! (there may be a photo of my 🐈‍⬛ son at the end)

sometimes i post at 3:30 am and go nuts and do other things but here we go !!! (edit 11/24: this was posted and drafted nearly a YEAR ago. my b.)

Let’s start with Florence, my Red Dead OC. She’s chill, she’s morally alright in terms of what the gang does (in a way).

i believe that she joined either With or around the same time as the Callanders, thus she was really close with them and Jennie. And losing all three of them really took a toll on her in the mountains/the prologue and into chapter one.

I think she's primarily a hunter for the camp, a cook too (she knows her way around a deer and other animals well enough). She's also someone I could see them relying on for an extra gun in some scores where they may need a further numbers advantage.

Her and Javier, prior to the game starting, have been like dancing around each other for well over a year. I think they also, once they do get together, kind of have this moment where they talk about what they would do if the gang did settle down and get their own plot of land and just lay low. It really made her think, she doesnt really know if she could walk away from this life fully but with Javier, she'd be down to try it if he would as well.

Know this about Florence Howard: she understands a losing situation. and I think once she makes plans to get the other girls and Jack out of Beaver Hollow, she's totally checked out of the Gang. Like?? Sean's dead, Hosea's dead, Lenny's dead, Dutch is acting afool, Arthur is clearly unwell, they're wanted in two states, they took the worlds worst cruise and got stuck in Guarma, and now NOW her man is buddying up with the camp racist, she's done, and she has plans and money set aside for herself to gtfo and hopefully she could knock some sense into Javier.

Now Aster "Ripcord" Wendell. my love, my heart, my pick for the Apex games. There's two things in the world she does not play about and it's her sister and it's her money.

I think when she joined the games, her and Bang meshed really well in terms of team synergy and the fans loved them. I think they became acquaintances then kind of friends then they were fucking for lack of a better term.

That was a thing until Loba showed up and when they were finally ready to start dating and really getting to know each other, it got kind of fucked. Not to say its bc of Loba (bc it's NOT) but with Lo being around, Aster's past was really brought to light.

With that, lets be real? If her and anita wanted to get serious, aster shouldve told her that she was a criminal, a good one with big scores under her belt and is also a former? gambling addict.

And with the past being exhumed, Anita kind of (at that point, I feel) tried to take the moral high ground and it kind of backfired but maybe worked?? bc Aster is just not having it and just kind of takes her own jabs at Anita and her, at the time, proud IMC involvement. It's truly fucked, they both need to take a mo, smoke a joint and evaluate their thoughts and feelings and come back to have a conversation when theyre feeling less... hostile.

That being said, I think their relationship is really strained off the back of the broken ghost storyline (and following events) and it shows in their performance as a team in the Games. They will eventually find their way back to each other I feel. (thats my way of saying: i've been thinking Thoughts 🫣) Also having Aster/Anita being a thing (kinda) really makes the Valk/Loba/Bang thing even more convoluted.. but thats for another day.

hmmm.. Vaughn, little miss may-be-named-after-my-RDO-horse. Where do I start.. my COD oc may be one of my favorites right now, she's great. She has a big heart and she understands that in her line of work, that's not a great thing in a lot of situations.

quick fun fact, she's actually named after my Bell from my first play through of BOCW.

She gets offered to join the 141 that night in Chicago by Price directly. Like, while the team is there at the bar trying to chill out for a moment after that mission. She says yes ofc, now she's their espionage/(the only term i can think of right now is entry frag.. which is not it..& i dont feel that CQC is the right term either) person.

Her and Gaz met on a job in Paris and they hit it off right away, but they didnt meet again after that for another 4 months. kyle had time off and vaughn was on an extended leave and was staying in london and they ran into each other and hung out and started dating and that was that, kind of.

She's called Cowboy bc of some ROTC folks she was in college with and it really stuck, especially when a few years down the line she ran into one of them on an assignment she was on and while she was in the CIA, no one really called her that, but it is listed in her file and now in TF141, she is simply Cowboy.

I think once they really are actually working together, her and kyle's relationship moves fast. like at the time of mw ii taking place she's basically moved in at his place, she's met his parents and his sister, he's tentatively going with her to montana for thanksgiving to meet her family. I even stated in you can see me as a secret mission that when they fully tell the team that they're together and all that: they're engaged. And I stand by that and I think they're gonna get hitched quick after that.

I think by the time she meets Gaz for the first time in mid-2020, she's known Price for a couple of years. Pre-MWII, I think she knows Soap and has been on assignment with him only a handful of times but she adores him. On the other hand, I think she only knows Ghost by reputation, she never got the chance to meet him before they were on their way to Las Almas.

I have a concept of a concept of a character that I want to pair with Ghost. I only have a codename for them: Crow/Aandeg. I have no clue why I so badly need them to be called Aandeg but maybe one day it'll be their time.

I think they also wear a mask but like a gaiter/hunting balaclava vibe where it's covering mainly the lower part of their face. That's all i know so far. i've seen them in visions and my dreams and it's probably a byproduct of my thirst for ghost being at an all time high for whatever reason.

KIPPERNIA CALPURNIA ZIMMLAR MY SUN MY MOON AND MY STARS MY BG3 TAV

LOOK AT HER!! she is not a gnome anymore, I thought for a while and with how in love wyll and her are, i felt it was quite tragic to have human wyll with gnome kipper (due to the lifespan diff). also when i made my second tav, i never intended for the outcome to have a full blown oc, i just wanted to play a gnome.

i don't really know too much about cal, what i can say tho is that she's a kind person, often to her detriment. she struggles to make what would be the right, tactical call and it's hard for her to put her feelings aside.

she meets wyll at the grove and is instantly taken by him, she fell first but he falls harder kinda vibes.

Alystin Mysek,, my number one girl.

she is a lover with the vibe of a hater, she can be quite cunt-y but she does mean well. i think she has a mean rbf with a side of asshole voice.

alystin isnt really socialized..? like shes not sheltered but she doesnt have that many friends at home and she does have an air of gullibility about her. she takes what people say to her at face value early in the story and just goes with it. that is something she does end up growing out of.

i think she really does love astarion and caught feelings for him really early on but.. when he tells her 'hey originally i was using you so i had assurance that i'd be protected,' it does hurt her a lot, but at that point she does know enough abt astarion that she feels like that wasnt all that it was and when he even says as much as she does believe him.

although.. it hurts her when he does kind of call her a fool for trusting him so quickly, but if she went back and knew then what she knows now, she'd probably make the same decisions with him time & time again.

but this moment

this moment, she still falls for his shit and says "i just want you to be happy" even though he's using the voice and just wanting needing that confirmation that despite what he just did and how he lied to the other spawn, she'll still be by his side and help him take down cazador.

omg yall want a bonus oc?? let's grab my mcu oc lenny and talk abt her in insomniac's spider-man. a spectralverse situation. if u will.

also shhhh... i know it's the same fc as cowboy. but she was lenny first :)

lennox slater is one of peter's best friends, the way that she is in every universe. they've been going to school together since they were 8 or 9. theyve been through a lot together, but he has never told her that he is spider-man.

lenny starting dating harry in college after they pined over each other throughout most of high school and they even got engaged during their final year in college.

unfortunately, she is the only one in their friend group that knows harry is sick and how sick he is and she literally can not say anything about it.

i think once harry fully grasps the doom and gloom of the situation he's in, he wants to break up with her bc he doesn't want to put her through what his father went through after emily passed. he doesn't actually pull the trigger on that idea, not for a lack of trying (i don't think lenny would let him break up with her just for that).

before they found out he was sick, they had plans for the year after they graduate college and they were going to move to europe and work in the Oscorp EU offices. Lenny ends up being in a whole new continent by herself, and she experiences a whole different kind of isolation.

Not only is she alone in a new country, new job, she also doesn't really contact anyone back home, citing time difference and a really odd schedule. like you can send a text to her but do not expect a reply for the next 12-15 business days (it is less for her mom) and i feel like that's mostly due to the fact that she can't tell pete or mj what's going on with harry. they fully assume he's with her out there.

i think norman likes lennox and really think that's she's great for harry (he was ecstatic when they told him that they got engaged) and while his son is in stasis, he kind of takes care of her in terms of the job.

she does end up getting transferred back out to the new york office in early january 2019 and when she finds a place, she let's peter stay with her. she doesn't know that peter Knows about harry, so she lies to him and tells him that Harry broke up with her last summer.

And lenny, I think is a super smart girl, but holy hell is she oblivious. like she lived with pete for 6 months, maybe more and she has ZERO clue that he's spider-man. even when peter is so careless as to accidentally leave his mask in the common area of her apartment. i fully think she believes he's a cosplayer.

🫨🫨🫨🫨🤠🤠🤠🤠💫💫💫💫
