Writing ideas can come from the strangest shit guys. I thought "what if our high school principal had a cane?" And then ✨fantasy✨. So now I'm on a track to hell inside my brain thinking of all the shit I could to with this. The betrayal. The angst. The absolute fucker of a slowburn of a romance.
Basically here is some major points
So Main Char. Finds out her ordinary school is hiding something
For background, MC is bullied and isn't liked much in the school
So she finds this out, and discovers this massive power she has
It basically starts off like your typical bullied to hero situation
But she's still bullied
And she gets angry and blasts these bullies away with her power
Now everyone is scared
And you see this shy and nice character turn darker and darker
The last straw before she totally snaps and takes over the school is her friend calls her out on her actions that are getting worse and worse
And mc is like "I did what it took to survive! Aren't you sick of it?"
At the end the argumnet peaks as mc blasts her friend away and internally she is scared that she doesn't care. Shes glad even
This forms sides in the school
There's like this whole war that plays out afterwards. I don't have many more plot points for that one
As for the romance
After the sides split, there is this guy who is just loyal to a fault to mc
Eventually, mc gets stabbed or some shit and the guy who has been hopelessly in love with the mc sees her bleeding out
He stays by mc for the entire time of the recovery
When the mc wakes up, they just know that the guy has been there the whole time
And then busts out a line something like, "I never seemed to fully appreciate how much you stick by me until now. Thank you"
And this bitch doesn't say thank you
So that's like the unofficial begining
They hang out more and then those feelings are just exploding
And then the guy makes a reckless decision on a reconasince mission or something and mc is like, "you could've died! What were you thinking?"
This banter goes on and finally the guy is just "and how do you think I felt when I saw you half dead a couple weeks ago?!"
Silence
Anger and sadness in waves
Mc: "I'm sorry. I just- I just care too much to see you do something that could end with your death being my fault"
And then confusion because he thought that this love feeling was unreciprocated
This whole scene is just angst conversation central
It ends with a kiss (duh, I'm a weak woman ok)
And they are just a fucking power couple
Obviously with hitches in the road
But we get there

I love living in Washington—I wasn't born here, but my family moved from Oregon when I was in elementary school and I lived in WA until I was nearly 20 and then moved back seven years ago. So a lot of my life has been spent here and what hasn't been spent here has been in Oregon (mostly) or California (two years of grad school).
Obviously I love the Pacific Northwest and I love the West Coast in general, but nothing reinforces this like seeing the reminder I sent to myself to sign up for health insurance, answering a handful of questions, getting immediately approved by the system and picking a plan, and promptly being informed that I now have health insurance with dental, vision, mental health, etc and that my ridiculously low adjunct hell wages means it costs *checks* $0 (even as autumn makes the PNW more beautiful than usual!).
I know it's a very US American problem to consider. But I grew up on the Canadian border, which meant that when my parents went bankrupt from my childhood medical expenses after I hit their insurance's lifetime cap when I was... like, 12, I was entirely aware that Things Don't Have To Be This Way because I had friends and family acquaintances with Canadian citizenship. And meanwhile I have relatives and friends on the US side who have to incorporate health care so much into calculations about what jobs to take, where to live, what the cost of living really is with a medical condition.
Another guy in my department and I were actually just talking the other day about figuring out possible jobs/cost of living calculations not just from reported numbers for a state or city, but about the importance of calculating cost of living for yourself specifically because of health expenses, difficulties of transportation, etc. Like, people talk a lot about how expensive California is and it definitely is, but for me that was significantly offset by the state paying all my medical expenses despite me not even having California residency. The Portland metro area is expensive, but it is entirely possible to never drive anywhere because of good public transit+walkability.
So anyway ... thanks, Washington State, that is a huge load off my shoulders and it makes voting against right-wing bullshit in WA a pleasure as well as a civic duty <3
#fuck those state initiatives btw and good on the state for saying where that money would come from (like k-12 education!!)#anghraine babbles#long post#cascadia blogging#us american blogging#health#medical malfeasance#west coast best coast#borderite blogging#ivory tower blogging

hello um. explodes into a million pieces
[id: two digital art pieces of characters from horizon: forbidden west. the first image has three different drawings featuring aloy, seyka, and beta. aloy is in the oseram artificer outfit with leather armor, bracers, and a leather crop top vest with red cloth; beta is in the nora huntress outfit, with a leather tunic and a light blue bandana around her neck; and seyka is in her usual outfit with a white-and-gray fabric armor and a pink-and-gray scarf. the backgrounds in these pieces are a textured light pink.
the first drawing is an upper body shot of aloy and beta, who are side-by-side, each with an arm slung over the other's shoulder, the sides of their heads touching. aloy has her other hand on her hip and is smiling at beta, though she also looks slightly concerned. beta is ducking her head slightly, her other arm curled into herself as she also smiles, albeit a little anxiously.
the second drawing is of aloy and seyka. aloy is sitting down, her legs outstretched while seyka is laying back against her chest. seyka has an interface open in front of her that she's curiously navigating through, her tongue sticking out. aloy is peering down at her and smiling. they're both slightly blushing.
the final drawing is an upper body shot of aloy and seyka. seyka is grabbing aloy by the shoulders and frantically shaking her, gasping in amazement, her eyes sparkling. aloy looks pretty startled but otherwise isn't fighting against it.
the second image is of a sunwing, a pterosaur-like robot. she is standing, lifting one wing to preen at it. she is simply colored a slightly darker shade than the background. the text reads, "Sunny the Sunwing <3" end id]
#horizon forbidden west#horizon burning shores#aloy#seyka#beta#seyloy#monotoneart#ft. my favorite FW outfit. oseram artificer my absolute beloved#GODDD i loved burning shores so fuggin much. the horus fight made my brain go ASFSJHGKDSFJSKDJKJSD#like yeah i've seen the first teaser i knew the horus was gonna move but. man. just. i was SHOOK and SCARED#and also as someone who is just. extremely. uninterested in romance: i love aloy and seyka very much <3#i DID get spoiled that they get together but i enjoyed their dynamic so much#and their gay panic was fuggin hilarious#i really really hope we see more of seyka in h3#sliding guerilla games 5 bucks to let us bring our companions while adventuring the wilds#also also. rip sunny the sunwing. explodeded by that one malfunctioning apex stormbird :(#and so sorry to my second sunwing that i got just a smidge too close to the tower with.#shakes fist at that one dreadwing

Random thought: how much do the bat family shit, or the arrows, or any other non superpowered family. Or even superpowered like the Flash family, famous for their fast metabolism. They have to eat so much to keep up with their life style, it has to come out.
How many times does poor Alfred have to unclog toilets? Does Iris think that’s the worst about dating a Flash? Do I want to know?
#batman#flash#barry allen#bruce wayne#dick grayson#wally west#iris west#green arrow#the flash#how much do these guys shit#is the bat cave like extra well equipped for big shits?#the smell must be aweful#the reason Alfred/iris/Dinah died people#wait#Dinah too#and Helena#and the question#is half the watch tower just shit disposal?#no wait#it’s Batman#he’s made it into a power source I’m sure#eco friendly and all that :)#oh my god Harley and Selina too#this has gone too far#I’ll stop adding tags now

Bickle Knob is the high point on Forest Road 91 in the Monongahela National Forest, which traverses some of the wildest and most beautiful areas of the Allegheny Mountains. Depending on which end you enter, the gravel road starts or finishes with the Stuart Recreation Area and the Otter Creek Wilderness. Bickle Knob rises roughly halfway between the two, with Bear Heaven Campground squeezed into a sharp bend on the descent from the top of the mountain. Bickle Knob is most notable for hosting one of the few remaining forest service fire towers in West Virginia, which is accessible to the public. The original cab has been removed and replaced with an open viewing platform. Views are breathtaking in all directions. The tower and other facilities in the area were built by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) in the early days of the national forest system. The most evident artifact, aside from the fire tower, is the gorgeous stonework of an historic water well located along the road, a memorable legacy from a day and an age when hand-carved and constructed edifices were both a necessity and an artform; they need to be restored and protected for future generations.
