#THEY COULDNT EVEN GIVE HER FABRIC SOCKS

[ladywaterfall]

Remember that time Hasbro made that evil queen Chrysalis pony toy but decided to print on random high frilly socks on this evil villain that clashed immensely with her cartoon image for seemingly no real reason

[arthurflecksgirl]

Arthur has been working on another childrens story lately.

He is writing a whole collection of kids stories to read them to his little son. Most of them are about the desire to make other people happy and how you should never give up on your dreams. And mostly…. about finding yourself.

 

This one is about 5 year old Nancy and her lost sock. Nancy lost one of her favorite socks weeks ago. Mr. Socky was spending a lot of time in the corner of her room, right under her bed, waiting for her to find him. But after days and days in the dark  he realized that the little girl forgot about him.He was only a  old sock after all. There was no point in crawling up to the middle of the room for her to find him, if she wouldnt even watch out for him by herself.  So he just stayed there, waiting. Every afternoon he could see her play with her hand puppets, noticing how much she must love them. She loved their funny faces and let them tell jokes to her plush audience. Mr. Socky started daydreaming about how wonderful a life as a hand puppet must be. Nancy would just stick her hand  into his soft fabric and boom he would become a funny comedian for her puppet show. Not long after that Mr Socky decited to leave Nancyˋs bedroom and go on an adventue to collect a face to put it on and become a real hand puppet. He needed eyes to see his audience, ears to hear them clapping and a big mouth to tell jokes. Mr Socky was visiting a lot of toy stores along his way but no one was willing to give him parts of themselves. „You are just a smelly old sock“ they used to say „Just do your job and warm someones feet“. But Mr Socky wanted to be more than that. He wouldnˋt give up until he had his face together. He was traveling the whole city, looking for eyes, ears and a mouth. But he wasnˋt lucky, so he decited to go back home. He started missing Nancyś voice and laughter.  On his way home a clown crossed his way. He was looking sad and Mr Socky aksed him whatˋs wrong. „Iˋve got so many big, red noses to put on peoples faces. But no one wants to be a clown anymore these days. People would just pass me by“. A big tear was running down his painted face as Mr. Socky told him about his dream of becoming a hand puppet and how much he needed eyes, a mouth and ears. But if a nose is the only thing he could get, he would at least go home as a new man. The clown was really happy to be able to help someone and smiled as he put the big, red baloony nose on Mr. Sockyˋs face. Back home Mr. Socky fell asleep after he passed the doorway. He was so tired from traveling, he didnt even realized he fell asleep until Nancy picked him up „Daddy, I just found my favourite sock“ that was when she realized something was different. A big, red clown nose was stuck on him. She tried to get it off which was impossible. Hmmm she thought. If I draw eyes, ears and a big smile on him it would make a face and he could be part of my puppet show. Nancy took a pen and draw some shiney eyes, tiney ears and teh biggest smile on Mr. Sockys fabric. She slowly put her hand into and moved her fingers „Hello Iˋm Mr…..“ she thought about it for a moment „Mr. Socky and Iˋve got some jokes to tell you all. Are you ready?“ The little girl didnt hesitate to put all her stuffed animals in a row. Mr. Socky was finally who he always wanted to be. He was more than ready. And he couldnt wait to see Nancy smile.

Today was a better day. My back hurts from leaning over and working. But I will take a shower and an aspirin soon and things will be okay. Emotionally I am feeling okay. But I might just be in denial about the state of the world. You know. The pandemic and all. 

I slept okay last night. I woke up and James came and laid with me for a few minutes. He made the bed so I didnt have to rush. I got washed up and dressed and felt pretty good. I am glad I wore an extra shirt because man. It got really cold all of a sudden. I didnt grab a jacket and that was a mistake. 

I headed to work and got there on time. We had some new kids today. A younger, sibling pair. Very sweet. But they were the only ones there until almost noon! Wild. I dont know why the twins didnt come in. But The sisters did. And it was a nice day. 

I mostly read. I did a little sewing but my heart wasnt in it. And while the one girl asked to bead she was supposed to be working so I couldnt say yes. Honestly everyone was a little distracted by art today. But as long as they get the work done I am only mildly concerned. I cant focus on someone just talking at me either so I just gotta make sure thats their learning style. 

We did go outside. It was just really windy. But we played with the long board I brought. Rode it down the grassy hill. We tried it on the sidewalk but you got to fast and then we had to go inside when one of them rode over their own finger.  My only rule was dont get hurt and they didnt follow it! So we went inside and I cleaned her up and got her bandaided. 

We stayed inside for a little while. I was just cold. But the kids wanted to go out. I ended up suggesting building a stick fort and they were super into that. And that was a lot of fun. I didnt get a better picture of it after the half hour of building. I hope it is still there tomorrow. It was a lot of fun. 

I also built with legos with the youngest boy. I made a cat and told him to make a friend for it while I ran to the hallway to listen to the government announcement in the hallway. They have moved us back to a red zone. Its getting worse. I texted Jess and she told me they are locking philly back down. All restaurants and gyms and museums and libraries are closed as of friday. Were not there yet but I honestly think by next week we will be. Right now they are just putting capacity restrictions in place again, and giving curfews for resturants and bars, so they have to close at 10pm. I dont think it goes far enough honestly. But well see what happens I guess. I just keep hand sanitizing the kids and making sure we have masks on. But its hard. Like emotionally this is taking a toll. I miss my parents. 

I was sort of chomping at the bit to leave. So off I went. And after a pit stop at tacobell I went right home. 

When I got back here I found our front door open? I know the upstairs people are moving or something but it made me feel a little unsafe. I dont know. I just closed it and hoped for the best. 

I had my late lunch and played some games. Got to work on some studio stuff. Not a lot. I did get to play around with the free motion foot and I am super excited with the progress. The front looks good but honestly the back is my favorite part. I am pretty excited to try more thread drawing. 

The sun went down and I was thinking about walking to the store. Eventually I decided to go over to the walgreens even though it felt like it was so late at night. At 615pm. 

It was a nice walk. I got a few things. Mostly just walked around. Looking at stuff. And then I went home. 

I worked on the commission frogs I have. Talked with the person who commissioned me and realized I had messed up the colors. Oops. So I fixed them and recut the fabrics. They kept apologizing and I was ike. No it was my fault!! And not a big deal at all. But my back hurt so I took a break. Made ramen. Forgot about the ramen. Ate it an hour later. 

I went through my camping bag again. Made sure I had enough layers and socks and tights. I am pretty pleased and looking at the weather forecast I think its going to be really good. 

Now I am just sitting the the kitchen texting with Jess. I am ready to go take a shower, take my nail polish off, and lay down. Wait for my boyfriend to get home. And I hope its just a nice night. 

Take care of yourselves everyone. Sleep good. Wash your hands.

Firstly, I know the anatomy is bad but I just couldnt get it look right and if I didnt just leave it as it is, I'd probably never finish it.

Secondly this is it, she is finally complete apart from backstory, I'm still writing that but I keeping forgetting what I was saying halfway through a sentence and also sexually but its CATS and everyone is dating everyone anyway.

BIO:

It got long sorry. Feel free to give me criticism as it will help me improve her and my future characters.

Nicknames: Shimmi, Rols

Age: Juvenile/adolescent (if I had to give an human equivalent then somewhere around 17)

Gender: Female

Breed: Grey tabby

Human home: A flat above the haberdashery her human owns

Human/ Owner: Lily - the owner of the haberdashery (21 female)

APPEARANCE

Height: 33 cm

Weight: 3 kg

Fur type: Grey and soft. Short with markings in a lighter shade. Fur naturally thicker and more concentrated on forehead

Markings: Light grey - underside/stomach, socks, tail and ear tips, tips on thicker fur on forehead

Facial shape: Round and unremarkable topped with large vertical set ears that have slight kinks towards the top.

Eye color and shape: Almond shaped. Golden in colour

Accessories: Large, shiny, bow made from pink taffeta with a large bell looped through it. 

ATTITUDE

Three words: Carefree, sweet, quiet 

Personality: Shimafrol is kind, often willing to help those around her and enjoys the company of others. Despite this she often keeps to herself, quietly minding her own business. Although some may see her as shy, unconfident and a bit ditzy, she is actually very comfortable in who she is and while she can often be found with her head in the clouds, she is very aware of herself and those around her.

Likes: 

-Soft objects such as cushions and fluffy fabrics

-Cold objects (she loves to rub against them)

-Being around others (helps her to feel that she is in a community)

-Napping in the sun, like most cats

-Talking to her best friend, Blaire

-Sitting on Lily's lap and being stroked or brushed

Dislikes:

-Others treating her like she is stupid or childish

-Being ignored/overlooked 

-Being stuck in one place for long periods of time

RELATIONSHIPS 

Parents/Siblings: 

Unknown - when Shimafrol was a young kitten she often wondered about her family. Did she have siblings? Were both parents in the picture? What did they look like? Did they like her? Was she abandoned or did something happen to separate them? 

As she got older, she came to terms with that fact that she will most likely never know who they were or if they even liked her. Now she doesn't let it consume her anywhere near as much though the thought of her family still crosses her mind occasionally.

Best friend: 

Blaire - a slender light orange tabby that lives across the street.

Shimafrol met Blaire when the orange cat moved in across the street from the haberdashery. Lily invited her neighbors over in order to welcome to the area. Meanwhile Shimafrol lay on the warm concrete planing to take a nap when someone stood in front of her sun. When she opened her eyes, she came face to face with Blaire. Initially Shimafrol was abrehence towards Blaire. However, these feelings were short lived as she found that Blaire was fun to be around and before Blaire humans left the two had became friends.

To Shimafrol Blaire is like a sister. Both of them are quite laid back, though the trait is more obvious in Blaire, so neither feel any need to hide anything from each other. Blaire is far more blunt than Shimafrol which can lead to some conflict, though this rarely impacts their relationship for much longer than a week, their difference in attitude is the main point of contention in their friendship.

Admit it.

Summary: Eric and his Dauntless acquaintance have a mutually beneficial sleeping arrangement. But what happens when one of them trips up on the status quo?

Previous Chapters: Hold Me, One Look was all it Took

Eric x Rae-Lynn (Rae for short)

Turns out, Eric’s tactic was to basically starve Rae-Lynn out. Ever since that night he hadn’t been back since. They would train together, eat together, work together, and Eric acted like nothing was out of the ordinary. Which of course pissed off Rae even more.

Rae hated that nights without Eric lying beside her gave her no rest. She found it frustrating that Eric had this… hold on her. Like she needed him to function. She would toss and turn tangled in the sheets, instinctively reaching behind her to find nothing but an empty space and unfulfilled longing. Rae missed the comfort of warm arms around her sides, the sound of another person breathing in the emptiness of her apartment. Hell, she even missed his snoring.

And Rae knew it was affecting him too. Oh no doubt. She saw the bags under his eyes grow darker with every passing day. Rae tried to cover her own with a bit of make-up, not wanting to give Eric the satisfaction of actually seeing his plan take a toll on her.

But in Eric’s mind, he knew she would be the one to break sooner or later, because damn him if he was nothing but disciplined.

Another long day in Dauntless, and Eric had just finished washing the sweat off his hardened body after a particularly grueling training session. The warm water felt good running down his skin, although it was no replacement for the warmth of Rae’s body next to his. Shaking the thoughts from his head he wrapped himself in a towel and headed to his locker. Eric reasoned that if he couldn’t sleep, might as well do something useful, hoping the exhaustion would also help his body and his mind find some rest in his bed. His...bed. Not hers.

This past week had been harder than he thought. His sleep schedule wasn’t great before the arrangement, but without his human hot water bottle snuggling into him at night, sleep came harder to him than it had ever done in the past.

But there was no freakin way he was going to cave in first.

Erica slammed his locker door shut, but when he did he found Rae behind it. One hand on the neighboring locker and other on the belt of her dark grey cargo pants, with her eyes locked to the floor.

��Okay so maybe you did see something.”

“Oh did I.” Eric drawled sarcastically, flipping one of his towels over his shoulder. Rae raised an eyebrow, chalking up the extra flare to the lack of sleep. “And what was that?”

“Look dude, you can’t expect to snuggle up to a girl shirtless every single night without her getting… ideas. I mean look at you!” Rae gestured at him wildly exasperated, to which Eric raised an eyebrow, chalking up her flare to her lack of sleep.

“What about me?”

Rae then slitted her baggy eyes at Eric, trying to pierce through his questioning gaze to discern if he was actually that oblivious or just wanted to embarrass her more. “Oh shut up you know damn well you’ve got a body I could grate cheese on, and most chicks here drool over whenever you’re in the ring, or just EXISTING.”

“Oh do they now?” Eric smirked as you rolled your eyes. Watching Rae fidget uncomfortably running her fingers through her tousled black hair and then around the back of her neck was definitely a win for him. It meant you were on the ropes.

“Yeah and well look a girl’s got needs and you ain’t hideous so….yknw… cant blame it if I get heated once in a while its just biology!” Rae whined with her shoulders slumped, eyes to the ceiling. Oh Eric loved when he got what he wanted.

She grimaced and tried to avoid his face while she scratched her head. “So we cool?”

“Ask me nicely. I wanna hear you say it.” Eric cut through Rae’s smoke and mirror tactics with a knife. After almost a week and a half of beating around the bush he wanted to hear her get to the point.

“…so can you come over or what?” Rae tiredly asked, defeated and slumped.

“Hmmm…” Eric kissed his teeth as he looked at his beaten opponent up and down. “I’ll have go to with or what.”

And with that Eric brushed past Rae who’s mouth was left wide open, Eric more than pleased with his victory.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Stupid smartass.” Rae mumbled, slamming the door to her apartment shut, back home late again from another midnight training session. “Thinks he can make me admit shit then walk away like an asshole,” she cursed while throwing her keys at the wall before slamming her bedroom door open.

“Who the fuck he think he is?!” She threw her bag at the wall in a fit of rage, watching it slide down the wall. “Stupid toned ass.”

“Can you keep it the fuck down?”

Rae froze as she turned and finally noticed the figure in her bed, lying on his stomach with a sheet covering his lower half and one pillow half on his face.

“Tryna sleep here.”

Rae stood there like a stunned deer for a minute, watching his bare back rise and fall before shaking herself back into reality. “Thought you said or what.”

“Just get your ass into bed before I drag it in here.”

Without a word Rae took her jacket and socks off, too tired to argue or to play games right now. All she was thinking was that hopefully she could finally get a good night’s sleep with him around.

Rae shifted under the sheet and tried to pull up the blankets and get under his arm, trying to get comfortable, before she felt a hand twitch around her back, feeling her sports bra.

“Nuh-uh, you don’t wear it this time. Take it off.” He pulled the fabric and snapped it back.

Rae gulped. All the other times she slept with Eric she’d always worn a bra, Eric knew this damn well. And he knew she was looking at him with utter contempt but he didn’t care. “You just called me mean names. I feel hurt. It’s the least you could do.”

Rae-Lynn took in an annoyed breath knowing her swearing didn’t mean shit to him. But she did as she was told, sitting up, and taking her bra off. Rae threw it heatedly against the wall, Eric not missing the smack of the battered fabric.

“It’ll just be uncomfortable anyways, I’m just tryna help you.”

Rae rolled your eyes in the darkness as she put her singlet back on and settled back under the sheets. “Sure you are.”

Eric lifted his arm up and turned so he was snuggled against Rae’s back. “See isn’t that better.” He sleepily grumbled, taking Rae’s silence as a reluctant yes.

“You know I would teach you a lesson…” He all but growled, moving his hands dangerously up her torso, making Rae’s breath hitch in surprise when his hands pushed up under her breasts.

“But I’m just too fucking tired. Gnight.”

And before Rae could protest or even react the Dauntless leader was already snoring lightly in her ear. And normally, Rae would have made a fuss, possibly slapped him, or lay awake wondering if that shit was a joke or something else. 

But after a week and a half of almost no sleep, she just didn’t have the energy to even process it. And so, rather than making a fuss Rae decided to leave the sleeping giant be. For now, she was just going to enjoy the fact she had her muscly bedwarmer back.

servitude - john / vriska [1.5k]

------------

john stood in front of the couch, hands balled at his sides. he was not happy with the current circumstance. right now he was  wearing a maid dress and not even a good one! the fabric felt cheap, what little fabric there was. the dress ended at his upper thighs and the petticoat underneath gave extra fluff which meant it was even shorter than that. his saving grace should have been the long stockings that he pulled as high as possible but if anything they just felt itchy. the neckline was low giving a perfect view of the collar situated snugly on his throat.

surprisingly unlike the costume the collar was well made, a light blue with a small bow in the front and a bigger one at the back. it was made of a satin with the inside lined with fur preventing any scraffing. it was also a perfect fit.

vriska was leaning back on the couch, arms over the back with her legs spread. he could feel her eyes roaming over his body which made his face burn and he resisted the urge to hide in his hands. she hasnt said a word then again neither had he. it was like the worlds worst stand-off.

then she sat up and clapped her hands together. “looks good! im glad youre smart enough to put it on properly.”

his mouth twisted. “why did you even have this..”

“always gotta be prepared,” vriska said, shrugging and motions him closer. right. prepared with a party city maid outfit and a collar just his size. he was starting to think maybe the bet was rigged, would not be the first time. but he kept quiet and walked over.

as soon as he was in range she grabbed the edge of the dress and flipped it up. his hands instantly came to push the fabric back down, grabbing her wrist.  “hey! what the hell, vriska.” 

she stared up at him. “rules?”

oh. heat rushed to his cheeks. “...follow everything you say.”

“and?”

“no masturbating and no arguing.”

she smiled, baring her fangs as he loosened his grip and let his hand fall limply to his side. “right.” she didnt push the dress up again instead sliding her hand underneath and grabbing his thigh. “dont worry. you got a week to get used to it.” squeezing tightly to emphasize her point.

john swallowed. one thing he didnt like about the outfit were the very small and very tight lacy panties. a dark blue that left nothing to the imagination. and now as lean fingers pressed against his dick he couldnt be anything but aware how tight they were. an uncomfortable restriction. he considered not putting them on at all but he didnt want to think what the consequence of that wouldve been. especially not since she had that look of smug satisfaction, the one she gets when things go exactly as she planned. the panties felt tighter.

then to his disappointment, she pulled away.

returning back to her original position, leaning against the couch. “first order.” she snapped her fingers and pointed down. “knees.”

he rolls his eyes but complies with a sigh. crouching down he gets on his knees between her legs, head level with her crouch and with a very obvious bump that moved under her jeans. instead of going straight for it, he spent a few moments getting comfortable. the socks were bunching uncomfortably behind his knees. seriously, how did people wear these things?

must have taken too long because a sharp voice came from above- “john.”

he made a show of taking his time, pressing his hands against the writhing mass as he looked for the zipper. vriska groaned but didnt say anything. soon he found it and unzipped as slow as he could. which she was not having because as soon as he got it a few centimeters down her bulge slid out the top of her underwear and forced its way out.

the tentacle wasnt thick by any means but what it lacked in girth it made up for in length. it curled when it hit the air, coated in a dark blue slurry that dripped whenever it moved. it was smooth save for the small spikes covering its length, growing in size closer to the base. they werent sharp, the tips were dull.

he made no move to touch the slick muscle. it was fascinating to watch it move in the air.

“john.” vriska warned. he didnt move instead glancing up at her annoyed face.

“you never said-”

in an instant she grabs a fistful of his curls and yanks him down. john yelps as hes smacked face first into her bulge. it slithered across his face, the length moving against his cheek all the way to his forehead leaving a faint trail of slurry wherever it touched. it was cold to the touch, not freezing but not close to warm.

turning his head to the side he presses his lips against the base. it curls in satisfaction, wrapping around the bridge of his nose.

“open.” he listens. opening his mouth and sticking his tongue out to run along her base, going over the spikes. her bulge continued to move, gliding down his other cheek before finding its way to his open mouth. the thin tip enters and the rest quickly follow suit, invading his mouth. squirming inside and down his throat.

he doesnt choke as the slick muscle slides down. he relaxes and lets it feel around, continuing to go deeper and deeper while it moves, rubbing the small spikes against the walls of his throat. he moans as she keeps going in reaching farther down while still having room to wiggle. soon hes pressed all the way down, chin pressed into her nook as she groans above him. he can feel how wet her nook is already, slurry dripping onto his chin and down to his chest.

her bulge curled, oozing slurry that coated his mouth and tongue. it dripped down his throat and he had no choice but to swallow. the slimy liquid filled his senses, it was sickly sweet, almost intoxicating. a dull haze overcomes his mind as his body relaxes.

claws begin carding through his hair, scratching at his scalp and he moans, eyes beginning to droop. he tries to move but everything feels too heavy so he settles for closing his jaw around her, slurping down as much slurry as he could.

then her bulge started to move again only to slowly pull out, the base sliding out of his mouth. he whined trying to push forward but she held him in place. until shes completely out, covered in slurry and saliva. she grabs her bulge with her free hand, it wraps around her wrist and palm.

his mouth stays open even as slurry drips out and onto his dress making a mess. he doesnt notice, eyes locked on her hand. then hes being nudged down again, lower this time and she doesnt have to tell him anything since he knows exactly what she wants. 

he starts lapping enthusiastically at her nook, tongue catching everything leaking out of her. then he presses his open mouth against her slit. “keep your mouth open.” she didnt need to tell him.

then slurry starts to drip out, a trickle at first before becoming a steady stream and then a sudden gush of liquid. it rushes into his open mouth and he gulps it down with ease. it pours down his throat and he moans trying to get as much as he could but theres so much and it just keeps coming. his mouth is filled quicker than he can swallow and it starts spilling down his chin. he tries to stick his tongue out to catch more.

vriska doesnt seem to mind though. shes still pressing him into her, hips jerking as she grinds against his face making even more of a mess. he can faintly hear her moaning and swearing above him.

the stream of liquid doesnt end so he resigns to letting his jaw fall slack and swallowing as much as he can. his whole face is wet and sticky, he can feel her bulge dripping slurry into his hair. he can also feel it trailing down and staining his throat as well. hes faintly aware in the haze of his mind of the collar, shame it was quite pretty. suddenly, vriska stops moving. she does let him move but her hips still as her body quivers slightly. 

then the constant stream begins to slow down until it stops fully. vriska drops, body completely relaxing. the hand stays in his hair but loosens its grip. so he pulls back, panting as he looks up at her through lidded eyes, slurry falling from his open lips.

vriska looks just as ruined, face dark blue, hair a tangled mess around her shoulders. her bulge slowly unwrapped from around her hand and slowly retracts. she grins at him, all sharp in the way that makes him hot all over.

she puts a hand, the one already covered in slurry, under his jaw. she closes his mouth and says, “thats it. now be a good boy and get me a soda.”

john stands on wobbly legs. his stomach is heavy and he feels the liquid sloshing around in his gut. without another word he turns around and makes his way to the kitchen.

Lights

Hi, it’s chrimis eve and also my first scenario thing. @chanyeolly always wonders what decorating w Johnny would be like so i thought this up. Merry chrysler (also couldnt upload on my laptop soo ur stuck w a story to scroll through)

“Really?” My voice slightly annoyed, huffing out a big breath, trying to unstick the tape Johnny just stuck to my cheek. I slapped his arm as his face scrunched up in laughter

“You’re wasting tape Youngho”

“Ok ok m’sorry i’ll stop” he said between giggles, grabbing a new gift to wrap. It was our first Christmas together and honestly, i think Johnny’s more excited about it than i was. So he wanted to go all out with Christmas shopping, giving us tons of presents to wrap.

Sitting in the middle of our living room, wearing santa hats and fuzzy socks while doing a really poor job at wrapping gifts was a good way to spend Christmas eve. Even though Johnny kept making a mess, getting tape stuck to things that didn’t need tape stuck to them and leaving little pieces of wrapping paper all over the carpet.

“Our tree is still naked” he pouted a little bit, he looked cute when he did that. His brows would come together slightly and his eyes would get all puppy dog like.

“We don’t have any ornaments...i think i gave them away, i didn’t think i’d be putting up a tree to be honest”

“Do you have any lights at least?” He says not looking away from the art he created, slapping a bow on the finished product.

I thought for a second before jumping up and heading towards the closet in the hallway, Johnny hot on my heels, practically skipping with excitement about some Christmas lights. Standing on my tippy toes, i reach up to the top shelf, feeling around for some cords with little bulbs on them.

“Actually, i think i do. I can’t see though” the last part coming out a little whiny, looking up at the tall boy next to me with a little pout.

“Don’t just stand there” i pushed at his chest a little bit “help me. You’re like the Jolly Green Giant” John lets out a little chuckle, rubbing where i shoved at his one peck and bumping me out of the way before stretching his long arm to the back of the top shelf, pulling out my very old christmas lights.

His eyes light up, and i could tell this was going to be way too easy or he was going to somehow find a way to set the tree on fire in the process of stringing the lights.

It was a disaster. Putting lights on a tree shouldn’t have been as hard as he made it seem. But Johnny was tall, and clumsy. At one point he even managed to get tangled in the lights trying to wrap them around the tree, almost knocking it over, and tripped on air.

“I thought you weren't gonna make it out alive” I said putting my hand over my heart, faking concern.

“I’m a manly man baby. I got this” he said while flexing his arm muscle and giving it a little kiss, the bell on his santa hat jingling a little bit.

“Gross, don’t do that ever again. Thanks” i walk over to him, draping my arms around his waist, placing my chin on his chest looking up at him.

Johnny's hands travel up and down my back, slightly grabbing the fabric of my shirt before sighing and dropping his head on top of mine.

“This is nice, doing all this with you”

“Oh god. John please don’t get all corny on me, we were having a good moment”

“I can’t tell my girlfriend how much i love her?” He pulled away, looking at me and pretending to be hurt.

“You’re so dramatic all the time” i reach up and softly squish his cheeks, making his already plushy lips plushier.

“It’s cute” i say while lightly pecking his lips “you’re cute” he tried to smile, but couldn’t due to my squishing of his supple cheeks.

“I wub u s’mch” laughing at how his words came out i let his cheeks go.

“I love you too”

“Can we make cookies now?”

“You can’t even put soup in the microwave without almost setting the kitchen on fire” giving him a knowing look.

He smacked his lips, wincing at the memory “Babe, c’mon. That was one time” he holds up his pointer finger in front of my face and i grab it.

“Fine, but you’re not cooking. You can watch and i get to feed you cookie dough” kissing him before making my way towards the kitchen.

“Ooo, okay. My Mom never let me eat cookie dough”

Day 1 in a mental inpatient hospital:

11/25/17

I didn't see this coming. I mean I did a few times but I was usually able

to get back on my feet. But I don't even know what happened, that day,

yesterday. I had cracked. Over something small. I gave up. I realized I

didn't want to do it anymore. Live. Watch funny youtube videos, laugh

with friends, follow my dreams, run adult errands, write poetry. I'm

amazed I'm writing this at all right now. And this was such a deep

bottomless feeling out of no where that I had a panic attack.

I could not stop. I started spinning out. I couldn't stop crying all day or hyperventilating.

I was out to pick up a desk that I never picked up because they were all out.

So I went back to my drive way and tried to figure out how I could come back

to my senses. Maybe I should eat, play a game, walk my dog, rest, go to my

bffs house.. but I was repulsed by every idea. I didn't want to go back to living.

I tried to think about something that could make me happy. But I didn't want anything...

anymore and that is when I couldn't return. I was so scared. I didn't know what

was happpening. Nothing calmed me down. I didnt know what I was supposed to

do. do I run away? What would be the easiest way to die. But I didnt have the energy

to even do those. Then I rememberes, theres a hotline.

I wasn't able to talk much since I was trying to stop hyperventilating. But the responder was smart. She asked questions slowly and paced. We talked for an hour and I told her that I wanted to

donate all of my organs somewhere and that I was done. She helped me get to an ER

to get help. At that point I looked like I had been to 10 funerals and was scaring

everyone. My eyes still hadnt stopped crying. They assigned a nurse to stay at my side

at all times. Probably because I kept saying “IDK” when they asked if I was a danger

to myself. I was in the ER for 4 hours sleeping and crying as they put stickers on

my boobs and took blood and urine samples. I finally decided to answer my sisters

calls and she told me she loved me and that I was perfect. And I was so upset with

the universe at that moment. WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I kept trying to make normal decisions, see if there was still some way out of this.

Back to old me. Sane me. But I couldnt. I was done.

Finally they told me about a wonderful place where we do group/art/single therapy sessions and I was admitted.They wheeled me to a room with security gaurds to collect my belongings and scan

me for metal. A nice lady asked me about my thanksgiving while she took me to the

mental health floor. I sat in the hallway while I waited for a nurse to bring me to my

room, with bare feet which didn't bother me. “Shame on INOVA” A nurse yelled giving

me socks and dinner. In the dining room I met some of the other patients right away. Watching tv and having their dinner. Fish with rice and sweet potato and cranberry juice. The fish

was great. I traded my brownie for a raspberry foam thing the other girl wanted. I

didn't care. I hadn't eaten all day. I didn't have a need to. After eating, I was showed to

my room. I didn't see a tv. That was disappointing. I wanted my phone back. But not really.

I thought I'd just sleep and cry some more. But then a girl appeared.

Sibila

“Hi!”

I jumped “hi”

“Are you new here! Let me show you around”

I agreed surprisingly.

“She showed me all the rooms, the game room, the lounge, kitchen, dining, snack room (locked)

Art room (also locked), pay phones, tv room and her room.

She gave me jolly ranchers and seemed super happy. So I did not under stand

why she was here. After that I went back to my room.

But she popped back up.

“My mom brought gyros! Lets eat!”

She dragged me to the kitchen and got me some coffee.

The coffee was perfect. Just what I needed. Which I proceeded to chug black for the next few days,

though it did not increase my energy what so ever.

Her mom was really sweet. Reminded me of my mom:

“sleep helps with depression”

yet I sleep like a baby

I tried to go back to my room but sibila was one step ahead of me

“Art class is starting!”

Art Class

Sibila picked a table in the corner for Victoria and I. A college looking girl with

the same circle as the rest of us, but sweet. But this place was no ordinary art class.

This place looked like a fukin AC Moore. There were lots of templates and wood crafts we could decorate. I didn't feel like doing much so I chose stained glass. I was the quickest

one in the group. The only one to finish a project. It would just give me anxiety to leave

something unfinished. After that we went to the end of the hall and sang pop songs for the rest of

the night. I joined along. Her spirit was so infectious. I tried not to be so low. But when we were alone

eating graham crackers I couldn't help it

“I dont want to live anymore. I cant”

She gave me a pat and scrambled. That was the end of that.

I slept with the lights on that night.

I remember

(hours before admission)

As I was trying to calm down about my problems

Inner voice: your sister will be okay, you just have to

Me: shut up ( monotone)

just stop

I dont want you to fix this

I dont want anything anymore

Im done

Voice: thats not true

Me: maybe I just need to run away for a bit. Take a long vacation

V: nothing will be here when you get back

Me: shhhh

I told you

I dont care

Im sure this has been an interesting study in human defeat

that is all

Break fast

was awful. Watery scrambled eggs. Super moist muffin. Potatoes were decent. Atleast I got to talk to vikki. Shes actually a lot more normal than I thought. Just some mild postpartum psychosis. But it seems like a lot of people come here to get back on track.. I don't know what I want... but I still don't want to go back. To anything. So thats not good..

The Characters

There are surprisingly not many people here. So far everyone has been super inviting and made me feel welcomed. There are the nurses who sit at a desk blocking the elevators. The whiteboard with each hall wing class schedule like school.

People I've met so far:

-Frail lady with a blanket shawl

-The angry boy always yelling at his mom on the phone with an ice pack on his head

- the pregnant lady who loves everyone

-The cute guys who thinks hes a celebrity

-the cute guy who doesn't talk

Sibila of course and our trio Vikki <3

and my room mate who sleeps all day, Doris.

I don't blame her

How are you?

A different nurse or doctor asks every 2 hours

I don't mean to be rude but I'm not going to answer that

I will gladly talk to a therapist about it. I could actually

really use that right about now.

But currently the outcome is uncertain

FOR SOME REASONFSJAODNASODSDMKA

Coping mechanism sheet

Take a time out in room – I slept with the lights on

imagine myself at the beach- no

talk with a peer- call Roslyn

write in journal

write a list of my strengths

write a letter

call a family member

have some tea or coffee

exercise

stretch

stress balls

draw

soft music- not helpfuldnjsadsnadjasdomk

play a game- boring/no energy

tv room – too bright/uncomfortable chairs

meditate-makes me angry

talk with your therapist-where?

Read- ummmmm

count to 10-NO

positive thoughts-try again

walk-what else is there to do

write a schedule for week after discharged- already have a schedule?

Comb hair/freshen up- sibila made me shower

My room mate

Doris has become a bit more talkative. She has the sweetest voice.

She invited me to bingo but I was still knocked out by the meds. She seems

worried about me. After I told the nurse I didn't want to live she asked to switch rooms.

Probably a coincidence.

The head poppers

: Nurses or doctors who pop their head from behind your curtain for a split second

to see where you are like a weirdo

every                     fucking                  hour

Bathrooms

are a fucking joke. Island printed yoga mats with Velcro make up for the doors.

Meaning you can smell and hear everything. One time I walked in on a full toilet.

I thought it was rude until I flushed and realized I probably woke up my room mate.

Oh well

The Bands

Wrist bands, we all wear. Get scanned about 15 times a day. For what? There aren't that many of us. They do it every time we go to a class, have a meal, need meds, get our vitals checked. I just ripped

mine off today because it is so uncomfortable and now all they do is ask for my name.

The more you know

How are you: Update

Today I yelled: “BAAAAAAADDDD jesus...”

but atleast he finally asked something different

“Do you have anything to live for”

“Yes, but I don't care”

I should probably stop acting like this. I think its triggering doris

Sibila made me a belated birthday card. It was super random, but also the sweetest

most important thing right now.

Lights

Ive been sleeping with them on every night so far. She likes them off but hasnt

said anything about it. Im just surprised the nurses allow it. I dont know why I do it.

I just sleep better. But maybe for tonight, just for doris, Ill turn them off.

Strengths

Believing in things I can not do

Visits

Mom brought me some fresh clothes and friends brought me candy

I managed to change into a fresh top and leggings and started to feel a bit better.

Might attend group tonight.

Update: group was boring and unhelpful

Doris

Apparently hates me

Fights

Atleast when you fight with someone here, they forget, and you can be friends again

The Suitcase

Today in art class I chose a wooden project. A suitcase. I decorated it like the night sky since stars calm me. Inside I placed a folded piece of fabric and some bead charms that would represent everything I would leave behind if I go:

Sunflowers- My family and friends

Stars and moon- nature

Korean symbols- knowledge

Buddhist hand- my wonders for the universe

teddy bear- my future possibilities

gold bracelet- material loves

Spiral- myself

blue diamond- hope

totem- values

colorful ball- passions

I still could not feel anything about it but I hope this is the old me trying to tell me something

Sibila

Has an eating disorder. She gave me a paper of her schedule and every hour said diet underneath

I notice that she doesn't really eat. Unless her mom brings her something.

Quotes

When you are a child, you have hopes and dreams of everything you want your future to be.

When you get older, you have plans for what you think will make you happy: A home, a job, love. But we all know that the future is unpredictable. We are not supposed to know what is going to happen anyways. Because if we did, that would be boring, or scarier, if possible. But you see, I had a moment, where I could see where my future was heading, and it was horrifying, and I just.. gave up.

Something positive

I decided to read the quotes in the dining hall.

“maybe the biggest opportunity is where you are standing right now”

A letter

Dear world,

I dont know if there is anything you could have done to prevent this outcome.  You didnt do anything that great or that horrible to me. None that I can think of at this moment

that I care to blame anything on. You just did, you just are. And we just live. And we just die.

But to my understandning,

ive enjoyed the beauties

and the perfect uglies

and im good

so lets wrap this up. Some might think I should be stronger

but nope. Its my choice.

Everyone here

says the same things

“when can I leave”

“gimme my stuff back”

Nurse james

is really fucking cute

I think he likes me because

he took my vitals even though mine was already taken today

did not object

Update: Never mind. All the nurses do this.

Doris

Likes old british rock music

Look up “the smiths”

Limbo

This morning I woke up and did not know anything. I did not know who I was or where I was

I had not a single thought. I felt like a newborn baby. I had forgotten that I was alive, ever alive,

or that there was even a life to live.

This did not break my heart as much as it should have.

And you want to know what happened next?

I got out of bed and used the bathroom when a nurse walked in and saw my face

and seemed annoyed at my unwelcoming presence

“Are you ever happy! Smile! You are beautiful and will be out of here in no time!”

My room mate applauded and agreed.

Hello

My name is priscilla and I am suicidal. I still can not imagine myself outside of this place. Even though I do not want to be here for long. Every time I try to tell myself that I owe my mom and sis, that I need to work harder, itll be okay, try to find love, I have to stop. Those things usually motivate me. But everyting short circuits me right now, and I do not know why.

I said good bye

On the last day, I decided to go to group

There was a young teacher asking ice breaker questions and only a few people this time. The old man who hears voices, Doris, Indian girl with translator, Taiwanese man with translator and me. I talked about my dad. That out of anything, the only thing that hurt or really mattered, was him not being there. I was the only one who cried that session. I left on good terms though. I wanted to talk and I finally got to. I thanked her genuinely. I left a note for nurse james. I said goodbye to cute billy, the one who talks to celebrities. Sibila, vikki and I got discharged together and we are now friends. The last days have felt like months and I can still taste the watery eggs, which I only tried once. But at least the worst is over.
