note: i love franco he’s my favourite rookie (after fernando of course) and one of my favourite current drivers. hope he’ll get a good seat for ‘26 at least, he deserves it <3
fluffcember masterlist | main masterlist
✧: *✧:*   *:✧*:✧
You found a job in a little cafeteria to make some money during your college years, and you loved it. The timetables were perfect and your coworkers were very nice. As Christmastime was getting closer, you decorated the place all together. It ended up very cute.
One day you were serving some trusted costumers when you locked eyes with a boy coming in the cafeteria. Honestly, it was quite impossible not to notice him. He was probably the prettiest boy that cafe had ever seen. Brown curly hair, soft striking features and a lean physique. He also had a familiar face, like you had seen him somewhere already.
He got near the bar counter, as you pretended you weren’t looking at his every movement with the corner of your eye. You faked interest on the tv turned on the news: “As The Formula 1 2024 season comes to an end, Ferrari is ready to welcome the seven times world champion Lewis Hamilton, while the Redbull team’s future remains uncertain
.”
He was definitely staring. Damn.
When you finished with the other clients, you walked in front of him. “Hello, what can I do for you?”
He leaned on the counter. “Other than give me your number, you mean?” He said, revealing a strong Spanish accent.
Oh, so you hadn’t misinterpreted. You rolled your eyes, but couldn’t help a smile. “Wow, not even asking my name first.”
“Easily skipped, Y/N.” He pointed to the card pinned on your uniform. Right.
“And yours?”
“Guess it.” He smirked, playfully.
You raised an eyebrow. “Are you like
 an actor or something?”
He shook his head. “No, but I get why my appearance may have deceived you.”
You chuckled. “Yeah, sure. So, would you like something to drink?”
“A hot chocolate.” He looked around the place and his gaze stopped on a table. “I’m gonna seat there, waiting for it. And for your number, hopefully.” He winked, then paid for his order and went to sit down.
You carefully crafted the best hot chocolate you’ve ever prepared for someone while watching the news.
“This year has definitely brought us many surprised, one of them being the young talented Argentinian driver Franco Colapinto, put in the Williams seat mid-season
”
Your calm expression turned into shocked when the tv showed the face of the driver, which was the same as the boy’s sat in your cafeteria. You were not wrong, you had obviously seen him before.
You served him his hot chocolate, with whipped cream, some extra cookies, sugar and all. “This is for you.”
“Wonderful.” His green eyes shined looking at his drink.
“And also this,” You put a napkin with your number written on it beside the cup. “Franco.”
Franco raised his gaze to meet yours. “Ah, you found out.”
You shrugged. “Or maybe I just guessed.” You turned around and went back to work. You didn’t miss him saving the number on his phone.

Obsessed with your fics! Could you please do she’s sick and the drivers and wags fuss over her and acting like she’s gonna die when it’s just a cold?
Hi guys. Sorry for not posting anything for such a long time. I was so busy with school and travelling and didn't really have the motivation to write anything. Hope you all enjoy reading this and you can always send me some requests. -XoXo
______________________________________________
Flu-Season
Amira’s bout of the common flu had her feeling utterly miserable. Like any sick princess, she knew there was only one thing to do: call her brother.
Carlos wasted no time whisking her off to the doctor’s office. His nervous energy filled the waiting room, and if it weren’t for Rebecca holding Amira’s hand, she might have fainted from the dizzying pace of her older brother’s pacing.
The doctor’s diagnosis—common flu—elicited tears from Rebecca and a dramatic faint from Carlos. Back home at the Sainz-Donalds residence, Amira found herself cocooned in warmth. Five blankets enveloped her, a cute sea otter stuffed animal nestled beside her, and the couple—Carlos and Rebecca—lying on either side of her.
After an hour of sleep, Amira stirred to the gentle touch of someone stroking her hair. Opening her eyes, she met Carmen’s friendly gaze. “Hey, darling. How are you feeling?” Carmen whispered. “Why are we whispering?” Amira croaked. “We don’t want to wake the others,” Carmen replied.
Taking in her surroundings, Amira’s heart swelled. Kika and Rebecca laid at the foot of the bed, Kelly held her tightly from behind, and Leo and Roscoe each guarded near her head.
Emotions overwhelmed her, and tears welled up. “No, don’t cry, honey,” soothed Kelly, who had woken up as Amira shifted. Both Carmen and Kelly gently lulled the crying girl back to sleep. As Amira drifted off again, Carmen whispered to Kelly, “She truly is our brave girl.”
Meanwhile, in the living room:
“Gentlemen, pay very careful attention,” Carlos began. “Today, we’re gathered here to ensure that MY sister recovers faster than any Formula 1 car.”
Seated before him were Charles, Lando, Lewis, Pierre, Max, and George—each looking like picture-perfect soldiers. Carlos assumed the role of sergeant, addressing them with authority. A whiteboard displayed a timetable with different names and times.
“Max, you and Kelly will take Amira for a walk around 3 p.m. Charles and Lewis, dinner duty in 40 minutes. The rest of us will clean the bedroom. Carmen and Becca will assist with her shower, whil—”
“I can help her shower,” Lando interrupted. The room fell silent; all eyes turned to Lando, his hand raised. Carlos approached him, predator-like. “Lando Norris. Listen carefully, because I’ll say this only once. You’ll never come near my sister again if you keep talking like that. Do you hear me?” His final words were a whispered threat. Carlos waited for Lando’s nod of understanding.
“As I said before, Carmen and Rebecca

passing period
ao3 written for @steddiemicrofic May 2024 prompt, “top,” 510 words. Rated G, Missing Scene, post season 1, cw: brief mentions of nausea & vomiting.
The sleepless nights catch up with Steve eventually. He doesn’t know what pushes him over the edge exactly—whether it’s the brightness of the hallway, or even the movement of his bag, the strap rubbing against the bare skin of his shoulder—just knows that he’s tilting suddenly, mid-step.
Before he can slam against the lockers, he feels a hand around his forearm, a quiet, “Bathroom?”
Steve nods through clenched teeth.
He flings his bag off just in time as he’s steered into a stall—promptly throws up into the toilet.
It’s over in what feels like a blink; more time must’ve passed though, because the usual chatter in between classes has faded away.
Over the flush of the toilet, Steve hears a voice outside the stall, “You contagious, Harrington?”
Steve rubs one eye. “No,” he says curtly.
“Darn. Was hoping for a ticket outta class.”
Steve opens the door to find Eddie Munson leaning by the sinks. He’s got Steve’s bag slung over his shoulder, safe from the clinging damp of the tiles.
“Dude, you’re gonna be so late.”
Eddie checks his watch lazily. “Nah, I like a dramatic entrance. Always fun watching the light leave O’Donnell’s eyes.”
“Doesn’t she, like, take marks off for shit like that?” Steve says passively, washing his hands—it just seems like the kind of thing to ask, especially since most seniors have been hurrying around all December, faces pinched with stress.
Evidently not Eddie Munson.
“Yeah, don’t think that’d make a difference,” he says, and maybe the smile doesn’t quite reach his eyes this time. “Not exactly top of the class.”
Steve shrugs in vague acknowledgement. Briefly presses his palms to his eyes, blessedly cool from the water—doesn’t really think anything of it until he drops his hands, sees Eddie just looking at him, a slight crease to his forehead.
Steve feels far too drained to even try and figure out whatever he’s noticed.
“You okay?” Eddie asks quietly.
Steve doesn’t know what to do with the question, too bare in its sincerity; there’s no expected space for him to make a quip back, to play it off.
“Just tired,” he says, “that’s all.”
“Mm-hmm, that’ll kill ya in the end,” Eddie says, sing-song.
Freak, Steve thinks mildly.
“Hey, uh, who d’you have right now, Harrington?”
Steve has to think about it, his timetable hazy.
“Um
 Mundy.”
Eddie makes a face. “My condolences.”
As Steve dries his hands, he hears the rustle of paper, a quick pen scrawl.
“Here,” Eddie says.
Steve turns. Eddie’s holding out his bag to him; Steve takes it, before being handed something else: a hall pass bearing a convincing copy of Mundy’s signature.
“In case anyone gives you shit. Folks are still kinda, y’know,” Eddie wiggles his hand back and forth, “since the whole Will Byers thing.”
“Yeah,” Steve says. “I know.” He folds the hall pass. “Um, thanks. How much—?”
But Eddie waves him off. “Nah, that’s your free sample.” He opens the bathroom door, glances back with parting words: “And I’d take full advantage, Harrington. Go home and sleep.”

A rant and theory
It’s really long, but I think I make some valid points.
Supernatural was on for 15 years. There have been interactions with the cast, some crew, some producers, directors, writers, etc. due to the ongoing conventions and the existence of social media. Writers will talk about changes to scripts, actors will talk about filming, directors will talk about why they chose a certain angle.
Given that most of the fans/stans do not personally know any of the people involved or personally know anything about the things that are/aren’t going on, it’s weird the way some fans/stans speak so confidently about what happened with SPN behind-the-scenes, production, writing, casting, you name it! 
Especially when it comes to PrequelGate. People will state with their whole chest, that their version of events is absolutely correct. One J is an asshole, and one J is an innocent baby. Which J is which depends on who is talking. It can be either or both. The only thing that all fans who have theories have in common is that there is a definite good guy and a bad guy.
But the Js are still friends. They say they got over it and forgave. Since no one has given any details, I thought I’d join the bandwagon and come up with a theory of my own. One where there is no good guy/bad guy. So here goes.
I fully believe that the story of The Winchesters was not meant to be an AU. It was supposed to take place between 15.19 and 15.20, with Dean and Sam finding out about their parents.  They had to switch it to the AU version because of the leak, a new timetable, and the fact that Jared was no longer available. There is also a recent podcast (I don't have a link) where a writer from The Winchesters said that Robbie Thompson, the writer and show runner for The Winchesters, kind of knew that they were only going to get 1 season because of all the mergers/sales of the networks and studios.
Robbie Thompson said in an interview (https://tvline.com/news/the-winchesters-recap-season-1-finale-dean-heaven-multiverse-jensen-ackles-1234942742/)  “There was the spot that takes place in between Episodes 19 and 20, when what happens to Dean happens to Dean
 So there was an opportunity to tell stories there, but that just didn’t work for me because we wouldn’t have access to Sam in that way, in a way that we could easily explain or at least emotionally explain, and that just didn’t feel like it was a story that certainly I wanted to tell and none of us did.” (Underlining mine) They wouldn’t have access to Sam because Jared could not be involved. Not because no one wanted him, but because he just couldn’t.
The reason I believe this is because of the following.
It starts with Virtual Con (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADYwrZ787a0) held in March 2021. In the video, the question about Chaos Machine projects starts at around 23 minutes. Watch Jared’s face throughout Jensen’s whole answer. He’s nodding along, looking at his screen, and not even showing the slightest surprise in what Jensen is saying. He doesn’t because he already knows. To me, that is the face of someone who already knows what the other person is talking about. Jared already knows which projects Jensen is working on. He knows which alum he is talking about. So he just sits there and lets Jensen answer.  His quip at the end that he will also be acting in it is just that, a quip for the fans.  Because (supposedly) he is bound by a 5-year contract to CBS. He can not legally get involved in Jensen’s project with WB. He can acknowledge that he knows about it, but he has to show that he is absolutely not involved. 
Next is the announcement of The Winchesters in June 2021 by Deadline. There were tweets by Jared that said he was upset that he didn’t know about it and that he wasn’t involved. There was also a tweet directed at Robbie Thompson calling him a back stabber that was later deleted. And, silence from Jensen, because he was unable to come online and address anything because he was on set in Canada. 
Things were set in motion that were not meant to be put in motion for a while. I don’t think Chaos Machine was ready to start casting/filming yet. I think Jensen and Jared were trying to make it work with CBS so that Jared could be involved in the prequel. But those talks weren’t finished, or possibly even started yet. But the leak by Deadline, the WB/Discovery merger, and Mark Pedowitz leaving, combined to put pressure to do the show sooner, while Pedowitz was still in charge. If they waited, then nothing might come of Chaos Machine’s deal with WB once the new owners came in. Maybe they were waiting for Jensen to finish shooting The Boys to get together and talk about all this, but they still hadn't.
And this is what Jared was upset about. He thought there was time before the show would start, so was surprised that it was announced without him knowing. It also explains why he thought Robbie Thompson back-stabbed him. Because he was going to be a part of this show, and now he couldn’t. He couldn’t even say he had been part of the development from the beginning because it would be against his contract with CBS. He can’t even say wants to be a part of it now, because again, it would be against his contract with CBS. He’s upset, because he hasn’t had any communication from Jensen about this going through, and Jensen was also unreachable. So he vented online a little.
Once this narrative that Jared was never involved, and would not appear in it, spread, all of them had to run with it. Jensen apologized for not telling Jared. He said he was superstitious. He wanted to tell Jared, but he didn’t have his phone. That he was on set. That Jared couldn’t participate because he was busy. Etc. etc.
But, when Jared spoke with Jensen, and was (possibly) made aware that the news came out because it was leaked, and that they didn’t have time to clue Jared in, and (possibly) they were thinking of doing the show sooner because of WB, Pedowitz, Zaslav, etc., and that they were still in a holding phase, Jared forgave Jensen.
All of the above explains the inconsistencies and “lies” and “tantrums” and finally the forgiveness, and moving on. 
I choose to believe that neither Jared nor Jensen are entitled assholes. They do not owe the fans any BTS details.
I’m sure people can tear this apart, but their theories don’t hold up either.

♡ My revision tips ♡
Hi everyone! I've got my first A-level exams in the next couple weeks, so I've been focusing on revision and I wanted to share some of my revision tips! I used to find exams very stressful but I have some ways to make exam season a bit easier so I hope this can help ‱ᮗ‱.
1. Create a good study environment
When you start a study session try to create a calm and focused environment. Try find a a quiet place where you will not be disturbed, if this is hard to find try using noise cancelling headphones. Make sure everything you need to study is within reach. I also like to light a candle to feel relaxed and I have a blanket to stay cosy! Creating a good environment can help you get in the mood to work and focus.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
2. Plan your time effectively
Find a way to plan every topic you need to cover before your exam. Some people find revision timetables useful for this. I like to create a revision list based on my confidence levels with each topic and work my way through the list going from least confident to most confident. I will usually focus on one or two topics a day depending on how close I am to the exam. I will also write a few goals for the revision session in my Notion which helps me to stay on track.
Tumblr media
Another tip to plan time effectively is to plan the how long you would like to revise each day. Don't feel pressured to work for hours straight! I know it is easy to compare yourself to others but find a balance that works for you. The goal is to work smarter not harder and revising for long periods of time can be damaging. As an A-level student I try to revise in one hour sessions with 15 minute breaks and I try and do 4 hours of work. I have found this is enough time to get what I want done without feeling burnt out. Remember it's a personal choice and you need to take care of yourself.
3. Use cute stationery!
I personally love cute stationary! I find it really helps me to keep motivated and excited to revise. It doesn't need to be expensive, just find some stationery that motivates you. Some of my current favourites are the Stabilo swing cool pastel highlighters and my Sumikko Gurashi mechanical pencil.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
4. Try to avoid just taking notes
While note taking is effective in class and when first learning the content, I have found it less useful when it comes to revision. Re-reading notes or textbooks can be helpful to jog your memory but it can be boring after a while. One of the best ways to revise is through active recall. Active Recall is all about retrieving information to make it easier for your brain to make connections between things. This can be done by using revision cards to test your knowledge, or on websites such as Seneca or Quizlet that help you to learn content, then test you on it.
5. Treat yourself
Revising is difficult at times and it can be tiring. Be sure to look after yourself and treat yourself with kindness. If you are having a tough day it's okay to leave revision for that day. It is better to rest than push yourself too far. I like to treat myself by having self care baths, taking time for my hobbies like gaming and reading and by spending time with friends and family.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I hope these tips are helpful to someone and make revision a bit easier. Good luck to everyone taking exams, I believe in you! ♡
Love, Evelyn x

Hellooo everyone and this is the seventh fic of Christmas
(So sorry my timetable is screwed up)
Hope y’all enjoy!!
Credits: @call-me-copycat for this amazing idea! Give them follows they deserve pleaseee
It was a week before Christmas, 1-A went on a large shopping trip to prepare.
“Ok!” Mina yelled as she clapped her hands and continued, “iida placed me in charge so we can do this properly abd efficiently or whatever!! Split up, but anything and everything Christmas like!”
She looked around at the nods and cheers of her classmates and nodded, “LETS GO!” She yelled loudly as she dashed off with momo and jiro.
And so 1-A dissipated in every direction, nowhere wasn’t infested in the chaotic classmates:
Bakugou and Satou were looking at food and drinks, arguing over sweets and the proper seasoning of a turkey.
Uraraka, izuku, denki, hagakure and kirishima set out for presents. Squealing over all might stuff(mostly izuku) and discussing t-shirt sizes.
Mina, jirou, momo and sero were looking at wrapping paper and aesthetic for the tree and dorms (Mina sneaking in a few mistletoe and silly string).
Shoto and iida were busy babysitting the others(iida mostly) as they all split up to do their things.
Iida watching in confusion but shock nonetheless over tokoyami looking at notebooks and guitars(after the music at the festival he was convinced to try again.)
“I didn’t know you wanted to try playing a-“ iida muttered before going silent again over tokoyami raising a silencing finger and strumming a few notes, humming a long a tune. “After the festival I decided to take up the path of music after all..” his low voice sung out as he turned his beak to iida.
Shoto was busy looking at soba with Tsu, who was looking at a cookbook for her siblings or 1-A.
Shoto hummed, “you think I should get the easy cook soba or the microwaveable soba..?” Shoto questioned as Tsu just hummed.
“Honestly I’m not sure.. depends on how each taste.” Tsu sighed as she stared into her dual coloured friend’s eyes in boredom and acceptance.
—
1-A left the mall satisfied, safe to say it was a success.
——-
Hope everyone enjoyed!!

Was Hakstol a bad coach or do you think there are just personality/coaching style differences that lead to him being canned (hahaha get it?). Obviously this is speculative.
Both.
It's simple, and it's both.
A shorter Stereanalysis for you, under the cut!
All stats, except where noted, are taken from MoneyPuck.
Dave Hakstol was a Jack Adams finalist last year. Generally, the Jack Adams and its finalist positions are given to those coaches who manage to engineer great one-year improvements in their team (see: Lindy Ruff [NJD 22-23], Darryl Sutter [CGY 21-22], Alain Vigeneault [PHI 19-20]). And often, these coaches cannot keep this level of success the next year and then summarily get canned (see: Lindy Ruff [NJD 22-23], Darryl Sutter [CGY 21-22], Alain Vigeneault [PHI 19-20]). (Trust me, half the Jack Adams candidates are out quick within 1-2 seasons after. These are just the more egregious.)
Seattle caught fire with an unsustainable 22-23 season. This is true. The 23-24 season was also slightly uncharacteristically bad regression from the team. It highlighted:
- They have one of the worst shooting% in the league. 7.68% 5 on 5 is fifth worst in the NHL, only above the actual bottom feeders (CHI, SJS, ANA) and, somehow, FLA. All situations, it's 9.11%, fourth worst (CHI, PHI, SJS are below SEA).
(Interestingly, they are the most blocked team in the NHL, with 30.82% of their shots being blocked in all situations. Additionally, 32.64% of their unblocked shots miss the net in all situations. This is fourth worst in the NHL, with only CAR, VAN, and SJS with more.)
- Tied into the last point, they cannot score. 2.57 goals for per 60 in all situations is fourth worst in the NHL (CHI, SJS, ANA are even worse). 5 on 5, this is 2.11 and fifth worst (SJS, CHI, ANA, WSH).
(Another thing that doesn't help is a 47.52% faceoff percentage. It's only eighth worst in the league, but winning faceoffs helps establish possession, leading to scoring chances.)
- They're also not generating high-danger or medium-danger chances. SEA is third worst in all situations high-danger shots for, at 252, tied with WSH (usual suspects CHI and SJS top the list). They're fourth worst in all situations medium-danger shots for, at 575, tied with DET (usual suspects CHI, ANA, SJS above). Sixth and eighth worst, respectively, at 5 on 5.
- Plus, they go on losing skids. A lot. I counted at least five separate 4+ game losing streaks. 2 were 8-game losing streaks. Outside of the 1 9-game winstreak, Seattle failed to string more than 2 wins in a row all season.
- Running Daccord dry does not help. 23 starts in 25 games is batshit.
There's a few other issues, too. Let's talk about those.
Seattle's success in 2022-23 was strongly due to their ability to "roll four lines". Generally, on a hockey team, your top two lines are offensive. Your third line is a "checking" line that shuts down other teams' top sixes while offering a few goals in a pinch. Your fourth line is an "energy" line that plays short sprint shifts to "disrupt" other teams.
Seattle had one of the best fourth lines last year with Donato-Geekie-Sprong, who were highly effective at their roles plus contributed meaningful offense (27, 29, 46 points, respectively). Seattle got rid of all three in the offseason last year (CHI-BOS-DET, respectively), which considerably thinned out their four-line assault. Replacements such as Yamamoto, Tatar, and Bellemare have struggled and been unable to find lasting success.
Additionally, Seattle's been having trouble developing its kids. When the entire team went through a points drought this year, its new-era star Beniers was hit severely, going from 57 points and a Calder last year to 37 this year. Wright, too, has not had meaningful NHL time yet, which is concerning for a former consensus 1OA. While Seattle's strategy was never to "contend now", and it did not anticipate looking like a solid contender in 22-23, it did not adjust to this newer timetable and thus took a massive step back. This is what got Hakstol canned.
Interestingly, the "character" remarks seem to be refuted by Ron Francis (the GM) as well as Eberle and McCann, all of whom went to bat for Hakstol and said nobody "threatened" not to play for Hakstol if he remained the coach of the Kraken. I'm sure there's some truth to it, but, at the end of the day, Hakstol just did a bad job coaching.

100 Days of Productivity [Day: 52] || 100 Jours de Productivité [Jour: 52]
seeking out comfort food while trying not to let the season drown me. every day feels more tired than the last. 2 hours earlier to bed, 1 hour later to rise. the shortening days still feel as melancholic as they did last year.
today I've spent reviewing as much as possible before my last exam. this semester was really rewarding, but with market season upon us I have a lot more to divide my timetable with! good luck to all ye students!
currently listening // Concern by isaur
Je cherche des aliments réconfortants tout en essayant de ne pas me laisser noyer par la saison. Chaque jour me semble plus fatigué que le précédent. 2 heures plus tÎt pour se coucher, 1 heure plus tard pour se lever. Les jours qui raccourcissent me semblent toujours aussi mélancoliques qu'ils l'étaient l'année derniÚre.
Aujourd'hui, j'ai révisé autant que possible avant mon dernier examen. ce semestre a été trÚs enrichissant, mais avec la saison des marchés qui arrive, j'ai beaucoup plus de choses à faire pour diviser mon emploi du temps ! bonne chance à tous les étudiants !

Answer the Questions and Tag 5 Fanfic Authors
tagged by @menina89, thank you. Doing this required more introspection than I initially thought, but it was a lot of fun 💕
1 . How did you get into writing fanfiction?
I had my first encounter with fanfiction when I was around 12 or 13 and discovered the (no-longer online) site myfanfiction.de. Back then I was really into twilight and so I created an account and started writing (in German). My first story was like 200 - 400 words per chapter and I think I gave up after 5 - 6 chapters. I posted a few more one-shots but honestly, the site was terrible and overly moderated. Two of my stories got banned for apparently being wrongly rated G and that was pretty frustrating. I wrote a few more stories for myself, but during most of high school and university years I only wrote assignments and papers. I stopped reading fanfiction altogether too for a while and only came back to it when discovering fanfiction.net and then ao3. There were so many stories and so much more engagement on those English sites, which was amazing. I did think about writing a few times but I was intimidated by the thought of doing so in English, which is not my mother tongue, so for years I was simply lurking in the shadows.
Then came 2022, which was a very rough year for me and induced a lot of anxiety, so in autumn after a spontaneous idea for a fic, I just started writing again to cope with some of those feelings. I posted the first chapter for the hell of it, but the Rogue One fandom was so nice and encouraging, that I just kept writing. 
The idea for my first story in the Lockwood & Co. fandom was born because I was looking for a specific story I. When I could not find it, I simply wrote it myself. 
2. How many fandoms have you written in?
Four fandoms I published something in. Probably one or two more, writing just for myself. 
3. How many years have you been writing fanfiction?
The first fic on my ao3 account was posted October 2022. 
In my teenage years maybe another 4 years ?
4. Do you read or write more fanfiction?
Definitely read. 
5. What is one way you’ve improved as a writer?
Writing multi-chapters. I used to lose interest in them pretty quickly. But I’ve actually finished 2 in the last one-and-a-half years, which I am actually kind of proud of. 
Other than that, I like to think that my English has gotten better (I hope) and I am less critical of myself, actually enjoying reading my own stories once in a while. 
6. What’s the weirdest topic you researched for a writing project?
I once went down a rabbit hole researching the Jacobite uprising and the Glencoe massacre, including watching a 1,5 h documentary (for a 1000 word case fic). That was probably the most niche topic. 
Other than that, I often research medical conditions, to not get them completely wrong. I did a lot of research on pregnancy and childbirth, including making a detailed calendar on gestational age and events that should take place. I generally like to make timetables for longer fics, to get the seasons and months right and to not give a month too many days. đŸ˜‰
7. What’s your favorite type of comment to receive on your work?
I love each and every comment. I maybe tend to reread comments more often of people pointing out things they liked, their favourite part, or swooning over characters. Also, when someone catches a hidden meaning or reference to another chapter, that is really amazing. But honestly, every comment makes my day and puts a huge smile on my face. đŸ„°
8. What’s the most fringe trope/topic you write about?
Probably struggles with fertility. Other than that I think I’m pretty mainstream.
Though, I wrote a Christmas market one-shot set in the city I live in once, which could be considered niche because of the non anglo-american or British setting. 
9. What is the hardest type of story for you to write?
It takes me a long time to write descriptions. Often there is a scene in my head that I want to bring to paper (or computer screen). But then I realize that I lack the vocabulary to formulate the sentences as flowery and beautifully as I’d like. So, I end up googling words for hours. 
10. What is the easiest type?
Fluff. I love writing tender scenes between characters. 
But also Angst, I think. Probably because I am a very anxious person. 
11. Where do you do your writing? What platform? When?
On my computer. I write in MS word. Then I copy the whole text into google docs, and do the editing there. 
Most ideas come to me while commuting, going for a walk, or showering. So, I either take quick notes on my phone or actually sit down and type it into my laptop, if I have time. Mostly, I end up writing in the evening, but I am actually more productive in the morning (again if there is time) 
12. What is something you’ve been too nervous/intimidated to write, but would love to write one day?
Smut. 
13. What made you choose your username?
I chose it, because I am a microbiologist at heart. It could be argued that Saccharomyces cerevisiae, also known as bakers’ yeast, is one of humanity's oldest production animals. It is also one of the first microorganisms I was able to observe under a microscope and I think the cells look adorable. Apparently, someone else thought so too, because the username was already taken. That’s why I chose Saccharomyces_97
Tagging: @alphacrone @woahpip @oceanspray5 @cate-deriana and @the-biscuit-agreement (I'm terribly late and don't know who has done this before. So sorry, in case of double tag 😉 )

She-Ra & The Princesses of Power
Tumblr media
She-ra is a Netflix exclusive cartoon that aired from 2018-2020 following the adventures of Adora and her 7ft tall alter ego She-ra as she and her newfound friends in the rebellion fight to save their planet from the evil Horde, a faction Adora herself was part of until very recently. Along they way they make new alliances, learn the meaning of friendship and all that jazz you know about from kids shows
Where’d I first learn of it:
Well I can’t remember totally where I first heard of it but I remember when it was a big thing, I just never actually went into it on my own until recently because of Netflix’s decision to remove all their dreamworks coproductions from their service
As for why it finally caught my eye, I suppose it would have to be because I knew vaguely about Catra’s plot and I wanted to see it in action
Spoiler-free review
Watching this show did reveal some surprises to me I didn’t expect, like Adora being raised by the horde from the beginning or how much I genuinely loved basically all the characters except for Shadow weaver who I wanted to constantly lose the entire time I saw her. The art and comedy was ok, the world building was great, the character dynamics were fun to watch and overall it was an enjoyable ride that I only wish I went on sooner, I highly recommend it to anyone who likes fantasy stories with a sci-fi style and an interest in redemption arcs.
With that said I do have spoiler related thoughts so if you wanna go in blind this is where you hop off, take care and I’ll see you on my next post
Spoiler-Based thoughts
Alright so I don’t know this shows production timetable and while I enjoyed season 5 there were definitely parts that I felt were kinda rushed, specifically Glimmer and Catra’s redemption. This season for them, to me, was in them coming to terms with and apologizing for the actions they did across the whole show or in glimmer’s case season 4 and honestly I’m not too happy that glimmer only got about 1 episode with the Best Friend squad that involved actual guilt being shared for her actions, but it’s also not something I wanted dragged over the rest of the show, I just thought it resolved too quick is all. Catra on the other hand, I would have liked to see more interaction between her, Entrapta and Scorpia but I suppose the show really did only need to show Catra and adora making up.

Summer 1 recap.
previous season - next season
All households:
Aria and James Sapphire
Alexander Sapphire
Graham Lambert & Amy Ernest
Ito household
Stafford household
Lambert & Martinez households
Arthur Sapphire’s family
Syncretian summers always have a perpetual festive air to them. In addition to the numerous summer holidays, wedding planning and birthday parties rythmed this summer. All those celebrations served as excuses to gather all the different family members scattered around the simverse, especially Marina Sapphire’s grandchildren who all reach their elder years one by one. Their favorite discussion topics revolve around their children: wedding drama, university choices for their children, the joys of becoming a grandparent. Though on that latter, the talks are more about how the new parents struggle and call for help rather than just being happy of taking care of grandchildren sometimes.
The most expected summer wedding was Alexander Sapphire’s, announced last season to be engaged to Serenity Edmondson. However, the news was shocking to everyone, especially Alexander’s parents, Aria and James, who had yet to meet Serenity. After the first introduction of Serenity to Alexander’s immediate AND extended family at the national holiday, Aria and James met with their future daughter-in-law. But while getting to know Serenity, James started a verbal fight. He then sucessfully managed to persuade Serenity to leave his son who was actually miserable in this relationship. This failed engagement did not damp Alexander's enjoyment for the news of his cousin Emery’s wedding. While not announced as early as Alexander’s, the wedding would be grant, Rachel Ito can assure you. Keiko Nakagawa, the new addition to the family is a sweetheart and was ready to pause her snowboarding career to have a family of her own. A delightful idea for Rachel and Kiyoshi who would love to see grandchildren. Little did they know one is already born and it is none other than Emery’s
 Before meeting Keiko, Emery may or may not have been kind of a player
 Though he was always responsible, the news of being a father was not the most surprising to him. However, the timing was far from ideal as he had just proposed to Keiko
 And he kept it a secret, coming to an arrangement with the baby mama. But for how long? Meanwhile, the happiest of the gen 4, Ericka Martinez, had finally moved out of her parents' home. It almost sparked the idea of having more children, but her husband Storm who was trying very hard not getting burnt out was not as inclined to expand the family. After all, they still heavily depended on Ericka's parents Kellen and Chelsea Lambert living two streets away. Kellen would probably be happy to babysit more grandchildren if asked though, as he is seriously considering retiring for good and his timetable is getting more free with Matthew leaving for university. Speaking of university, after a successful high school graduation, Leïla Stafford got accepted for a distinguished degree in biology at Foxbury Institute! Dreams smooth sail for the Stafford sisters as Sienna has her acting career flourishing as well. Milton no longer suffers from a midlife crisis and tries to do his best in PR but really, he is more of a business man. Yolanda is at the head of the most reknowned cooking club of Newcrest. Ambitions wise, everything is perfect for the Staffords. But what about the love interests of the two sisters? Sienna has spotted a DJ and might get closer to him with moving out, while Leïla has realized that maybe Mitchell, her highschool sweetheart, might not be the only one out there... And if there's one thing Graham Lambert and Amy Ernest can say about uni, it's that it comes with its lot of romance drama! Graham started uni and did not expect to find love after deciding to get more sociable. But it seems love found him in the form of Angela Pleasant. Amy was not so lucky and had a disastrous relationship with a certain Deacon - but we shall not talk about him ever again. Now graduated, Amy is ready to discover the savours of this world, fully applying her culinary arts degree. She can not wait for her move in autumn to San Myshuno! Not as ready to move was the lovely family of Arthur and Jillian Sapphire. With their two daughters Mila and Sara, they have decided to move back to Newcrest for autumn. Royal duties took over and it became harder for them to reconcile parenting and work. Jillian especially struggled even if she finally managed to finish the children's book she had been writing since Sara's infant days. But time flew by and soon enough, they had to get ready to move, but not after one last grand party in the Tartosan house: Mila's birthday!

The Holidays Are a Time of Togetherness and Giving but Sometimes People Can Take Both a Bit Too Far in the Service of Being Petty as All Hell
Tumblr media
Fandom: The Legend of Heroes/Trails, Trails of Cold Steel
Summary:
Lechter Arundel has an idea, in the spirit of the season: host a homecoming party in Ymir for Erebonia's hero, Rean Schwarzer. Just some friends, family, and a few decorations. Nothing too bad! Things get a little out of hand.
Read the fic here and check out an excerpt/my thoughts below!
Excerpt:
Lechter Arundel wasn’t supposed to hear this conversation. He wasn’t even supposed to be in Ymir, frankly. There was an all-Ironbloods meeting occurring the next day at Valflame Palace, so he was supposed to be in Heimdallr at the least in the event of any unexpected circumstances. However, the weather was miserably cold, and he needed just a quick dip-what was the harm? He had the timetable all worked out too: 1. Get to Ymir the night before. 2. Hit the Phoenix Wings. 3. R&R 4. Snowboard? Snowboard. 5. Head back to Heimdallr, getting to the meeting either on time or (depending on if he felt like sleeping in) fashionably late. 6. Optional: Gloat to the others about how refreshed he was. He had his disguise all figured out too, a lesson he picked up from the Debaucherous Prince. His hair was covered in a toboggan hat, he was wearing a pair of colored contacts (he always wondered what it would be like to have blue eyes), and he dug out his old Crossbell tourist duds for the occasion (though with an extra layer or two to combat the cold). With a nice warm towel wrapped around his neck, and a cup of hot cocoa, he looked like any other nobody. Which is why neither of the Schwarzers recognized him (he hoped) when they sat at the bar in the Phoenix Wings, fresh from a bath of their own.
Author's Note: The second in the Kiseki In-Between-Iverse series, this one I especially had a blast with because for as much as I love the Sky cast, it's just so easy to slip into the voices of the Cold Steel characters. Being able to sort of bridge that gap between Sky and CS was also a treat, and seeing if I could top my previous over-stuffed cameo list with fun cross-sections of character interactions. Just a fun time all around.

Light spoilers!
So, the season 5 Ghosts summary, as well as hints in season 4, suggest that Alison and Mike are going to be thinking about/ taking steps towards having kids in season 5. I don't think we're likely to see a pregnancy announcement in episode 1 and a delivery in episode 6 because that seems off the pace of the show, but there's a lot of pre-baby fun that can be had with the Button House crew. My guesses:
- Alison is nervous about telling the ghosts that she and Mike and thinking of starting a family. The couple have lots of whispered conversations that they struggle to finish without a ghost walking in. Eventually, one of the ghosts - probably poor, forgotten Head!Humphrey - overhears and Alison is surprised to find that all of the ghosts are on board because of their ~emotional growth~
- This leads to Julian sharing optimum positions to conceive in, of course, whilst Fanny thinks a woman should lie back and think of England
- Captain learns there are timetables involved around ovulation and best times to conceive. He wants to be very involved in this because it's an organiser's dream, but he's also very awkward about it. Pat is less awkward and shares too many initmate details of Daley's conception, but through hard-to-understand and dated euphemisms
- Kitty wants to plan the nursery and the baby's wardrobe and have the nursery be nextdoor to her room. She's announces herself as the baby's godmother.
- Thomas sees this all as the final nail in the coffin for his hopes of ever being with Alison and is most reluctant to get involved, but will be absolutely smitten with the baby when they arrive
- Pat wants to share his 'Dad Survival Guide' tips with Mike, so Alison is forced to convey them
- Robin is pretty chill, as usual, and sees this as the start of a long line of children about to appear in the house. He still doesn't fully grasp monogamy
Any other predictions?
