Okay Here Is The Problem: everything costs money and yet money is something that i just literally never have. solution? kill the idea of money so that nothing costs anything Please. i'm so tired
#despite making more money w/ my commissions than ever before this year#i am still. not able to save up literally even one (1) single penny of it bc of bills#i have to make like 600 every month just to break even at like 5 dollars in my acct#please i am so fucking tired#i want to get myself things and do shit#i want to buy things for archie and jack's dog and for the house so that things are better for all of us#i want to be able to afford snacks more than once every three months like if i maybe want a bag of chips#instead of saving up for three months and going 'yeah okay 5 dollars for a normal sized bag of chips is finally worth it' ?????????????????#why the fuck are chips so expensive that is potatoes and spices and like all of it is automated hello?? what are we fucking paying for?????#ANYWAYS.#i am just fucking. Tired#due to recent events I was like#'okay how much are dog treadmills.... oh. i see. i will never be able to afford that even after three years saving. got it'#there are five hundred fundraisers on my dash (BARELY hyperbole) every single day and everybody needs help#so i COMPLETELY get people not having a ton of disposable funds this isn't me complaining about that i'm just.#i wish that i sometimes had money so that i could MAYBE save anything up or y'know. have ANYTHING to show for it#bc right now i am working full time at this job (commission/freelance artist and adopt maker etc) and making like maybe 4 dollars an hour#which is great bc when i started i was only getting about $0.11 an hour but like. that's still not. Good. For all the time i put into it#but due to circumstances and situations this is about all i'm physically and mentally able to do here and i LIKE doing commission but it's#not really. getting me anywhere and i just want to afford things finally.#i'm 27 and everything i own fits in one room and almost all of it was gifted to me for free bc i couldn't afford to get it on my own#delete later i'm just so tired man

mr house never being able to replicate his courier six because they never let him scan them, so all he has are a few shoddy recordings he took to recreate the courier from. his replicas of courier six are flawed: none are as perceptive, resourceful and proactive. they aren't good at out-of-the-box thinking or improvising. their problemsolving, diplomacy skills and technological innovation ideas fall short of the original and are just another disappointment every time. they end up hollow shells like jane, marilyn and victor. letting new vegas go, ruin itself in pursuit of recreating his perfect right hand again, hope for another fruitful partnership and bright future of the mojave like they did before is so delicious it makes me sick actually send tweet āœŒ
#ulysses warned my courier house would sooner or later put her face on a robot servant and he was right!! and she knew he was!!!#but the way house went about it in my headcanon is making me sick in the stomach!!!!!!!!!!!!!#the devnotes?? that allied courier was his first true prodigy/son/daughter IN 200 HUNDRED YEARS??? sickening. i love it#add a fucked up romantic-not-really-only-pining storyline into that already crazy cocktail and im eating it up!!!!!!!!!!! YUM!!!!#my courier is a technophile but she's got a shred of self-respect and wont let (out of pride mostly) house scan her brain#she dies ensuring the continuation of new vegas setting it up to prosper only for house to let it go to shit.... the drama.........#because he cannot imagine a world without his partner who has changed the world around them so much in such a short life....#so he sets out to recreate even a shred of her glory so they may continoue to reign over the mojave but he fails miserably over and over#and his pursuit blins him to the shit stirring on the streets and the area that even his army of securitrons isnt able to stop#either the nv clans successfuly rebel/make the city go to shit while he's too busy working on the courier copies#or some outside party infiltrates and gets his ass while he's not looking. rip#either way my courier is always the death of mr house whether they are allied or not bc i love doomed narratives#personal#delete later#fallout#? technically#till we get season 2 of the tv show im able to brainstorm ideas as to what happened to nv after fnv ended!!!! SOMEBODY STOP ME (dont)#im cutting this extremely short my thought on this are pretty long i couldnt fall asleep on monday bc ulysses' words were haunting me

Happy (roughly) one year anniversary to me hearing Chappell Roanā€™s ā€œCasualā€ for the first time and immediately deciding to write a ficā€”a thing I had never done beforeā€”just so I could use ā€œknee deep in the passenger seatā€ as the title.

Unga bunga these take 3 hrs to make
#Artfight#Art#Hollers into the sky I'M MAKING AAART#Glad I still got it#Also was on vacay for the first two weeks of AF so thats. Great#Is it update time? Sure here's a quick life update#So I work at this tiny mom and pop shop right. Because they were so small they liked to take advantage of their workers#Aka me and literally 2 other people ever. I've been here for a year lmao#I always knew they were suspicious but it really came to a head when they accused me of stealing money#Btw they issued me a 1099 (the wrong tax form) so they already stole from me#I talked to the bank and had the delightful experience of slapping their account across the face with my guilt free hands#Metaphorically unfortunately#I'm gonna quit this week. I'm tired of these people. The drama was fun tho#Let's see. Ah! I just passed 1 1/2 years of Sky the other day!#More than the game itself I've become engrossed in the modding community hahaha#It's the weirdest little cranny of a fandom I've seen for such a large project#It's basically ONLY passed via word of mouth. And there's all sorts of fun drama happening within the discord(s) too#Idk this is just so funny to watch. Might get banned sooner or later but oh well. I've spent hundreds#It's their loss šŸ¤Ŗ and mine. Mostly mine. But also their loss šŸ¤Ŗ#.... You know. My blog is small enough that I could post some funny stuff that I don't dare post anywhere else#Hehehuhuhu I just might. I have a lot of videos#OH SPEAKING OF VIDEOS I'm thinking of cleaning up all my old vids and publishing em to youtube#Apparently I just never did that#May as well dust off the ol' tube of yube and my handful of subs#I'll just post the unfinished ones unlisted as well. Why not!#Till next time. Hopefully soon

It had been two weeks since it was all over. Theyā€™d spent the majority of their time in Kakariko Village. Impa had been gentle and fastidious in her care of the princess, and Link felt a little out of place at the sight of it ā€“ the two remembered each other, remembered everything of the past. Impa could tell Zelda of what had happened since, and Zelda could be nostalgic with Impa. Link could really offer neither, he supposed, though heā€™d seen more of Hyrule nowadays than Impa had.
Despite all of this, though, both Link and Zelda struggled. Link spent his spare time sparring or traveling the area, resting in Hateno, helping the villagers in both places. Zelda justā€¦ rested. After two weeks, even Impa was showing signs of uncertainty and worry. Link didnā€™t know what to do.
The swordsman sighed as he kicked a pebble into a pond, watching a frog hop away. He had so little understanding of the past, he felt useless to help. But at the same time, he just felt useless, period. His entire purpose and life mission when heā€™d woken up, the main goal heā€™d built his entire identity around, was over. Zelda spent a hundred years holding the Calamity at bay and now it was over.
It was over.
And they were both left withā€¦ they didnā€™t even know.
Maybe that was the issue, then. Neither knew what to do now. Neither knew how to move forward after theyā€™d spent so long being stuck in the past.
Well, Link wasnā€™t quite stuck in the past. He couldnā€™t remember it. Maybe that was why it still seemed to hold him hostage. Either way, the wounds of the Calamity were everywhere, whether it was remembered or not.
Link stared at his reflection in the water. Now what?
He sighed, falling into a seated position in front of the pond. The frog from earlier landed on a lily pad. He watched it aimlessly, mind restless and heart hurting. As he watched it, the world seemed to fade around him, his body growing light, and he recognized the feeling, the sensation, and his eyes widened a hair ā€“ heā€¦ hadnā€™t had new memories trying to resurface since the Calamity had been defeated.
Link took a small, shaky breath, letting his mind go where it wanted to, drifting into the past.
Heā€™s home. The lighting is a little dim since itā€™s raining. There are sniffles by the stairway, and he feels the need to go to them, but whispers to his left catch his attention.
ā€œTil, this is ridiculous. A funeral for a frog? Really?ā€
ā€œHoney, she loved that frog!ā€
ā€œShe saw it for maybe a few weeks, didnā€™t she?ā€
ā€œYes, and she loved it! She even named it.ā€
His father sighs heavily, pinching the bridge of his nose. ā€œYouā€™re proposing we hold a funeral. For a frog that lived by the pond for a few weeks. Because Lyra is upset that it died.ā€
ā€œThatā€™s exactly what Iā€™m proposing,ā€ his mother replies.
ā€œTil, everything dies, if we held a funeral for every single thing weā€™d be mourning our entire lives.ā€
ā€œThis isnā€™t about mourning, Abel,ā€ his mother argues. ā€œItā€™s about learning to close a chapter of your life and move forward. Sheā€™s young, this is a good way for her to learn this.ā€
His father watches her skeptically and then sighs again. ā€œVery well.ā€
His mother smiles and nods, heading towards the stairs and kneeling, blocking someone from view as she speaks softly. His father approaches him, and he stands a little straighter, eyes watching him with unspoken curiosity.
ā€œWell,ā€ his father huffs. ā€œI suppose we should put on our formal attire for this, seeing as itā€™s an important affair.ā€
He catches himself midway into smiling, unsure if this is an actual joke or a grumble, but the wink he gets from his father make shim relax. He nods and the pair go their separate ways, and the world fades and spins dizzyingly for a moment before he finds himself standing outside. He and his father are dressed in colorful regalia, a hat keeping his head warm in the damp air. His mother is wearing dark, somber clothes, and he sees a little girlā€”his sisterā€”holding a candle in front of the pond. He canā€™t hear the words being spoken, or even tell if there are words being spoken, but somehow, he feelsā€¦ at peace.
Link gasped, startled as he opened his eyes, cheeks chilled by tear tracks that had half dried. For a moment he just sat there, processing what heā€™d just seen. That wasā€”heā€™d seen hisā€”
He shook his head. Somehowā€¦ that feltā€¦
He glanced up at the sky and looked beyond it, his heart racing, and he struggled to catch his breath before looking back down at the pond.
Grief over a family he didnā€™t know anymore welled up inside him, but the lesson theyā€™d taught him burned even more. He rose, taking a steadying breath, clenching his fists and closing his eyes as the tears fell.
He knew what they needed to do.
The next day, Link and Zelda stood at Fort Hateno, flowers in the princessā€™ hands, Link dressed in his freshly cleaned champion garb. The pair looked out over the field and all its wreckage.
Zelda took a shaky breath, and stepped forward, as if she were getting ready to address a crowd of people, as if the dead were all standing there waiting. Link felt as if they were, he felt the gravity of the situation sitting heavily on his shoulders.
At the same time, though, he feltā€¦ good. This felt right. And heā€¦
The images of his memory came unbidden, of faces he barely knew in his mind but knew in his heart.
Theyā€™d lost so many.
ā€œCalamity Ganonā€¦ is gone,ā€ Zelda said, her voice thick but growing stronger. ā€œThe plague that destroyed our land is no more. So youā€¦ you all can rest. We thank you for your sacrifices, we mourn you for your loss, we beg for forgiveness that itā€¦ that it took this long.ā€
Link stepped forward, his shoulder brushing hers. When she glanced at him, he offered a smile. No more regrets, Zelda. This isnā€™t about that.
Zelda seemed to read that in his expression, and she nodded, closing her eyes.
ā€œItā€™s over,ā€ she whispered, kneeling and placing flowers by a stone theyā€™d found and decided to use for the occasion. ā€œItā€™s over.ā€
And for the first time in two weeks, Zelda cried. And for the first time in his living memory, Link cried.
And as the sun set and their tears dried, they smiled, and moved on together.

breakups are so fucking weird. three years and just like that it's gone. huh
#helix.txt#gross i ended up spilling my guts in tags. look at them fucking writhing on the floor all bloody#dont rb please#vent#to quote fall out boy i knew it was over i just didn't know the date#yeah that's it. fall out boy can fix this.#i will feel better if i go listen to bang the doldrums#and infinity on high in general#and folie a deux. folie a fucking deux how i love that album#my chem will make me better. gerard way save me#god what a weird feeling. you used to know me better than any other person but then you moved hundreds of miles away and it worked#for a while. then two years later you said it wasnt working and that this was best for both of us. guess i never got the memo for that one#hope we treat other people better because i wasn't as kind as i should have been towards the end and you were never as thoughtful or con-#-siderate as i needed towards the end. we grew apart because you're bad at keeping contact over messaging#and in some ways the cracks in the foundation that grew from that were my fault too i guess. our conversations always felt one sided#maybe i was smothering you#you could never seem to keep more than a passing recollection of the things i liked or even pay much attention to them#but i wasn't great about that either#we just became different people. you weren't what i wanted or needed and you couldn't do long distance. whatever#i know it was the right thing i just wish it hadn't made me feel so damn awful#will we still talk after this? who knows. we didn't end on bad terms but things are definitely weird#and considering your track record with people you can only talk to online i'm not optimistic#you tried to break things off initially by saying you'd said you would improve in the past with nothing to show for it#something i didn't disagree with but i said it didn't bother me much. and it didn't#but it's complicated now. i did deserve better. but you made it clear i'm not getting it from you#you weren't as present or thoughtful as i needed#i wasn't there in person the way you needed and certainly not as considerate as i should have been. and for that second part i'm truly sorr#anyways. sorry. i'd been thinking about it for a long time anyway. i didn't want to admit it because i didn't like to think#about what it might bring. maybe i should have been braver#right. that's enough

Would you ever write further fic/s (Iā€™m thinking specifically of The Clifton Manor Incident) detailing Jacquieā€™s shenanigans in the years she spent away from home, prior to CS? Like her travels as a pirate, etc.? ā˜ŗļøĀ 
I would LOVE TO. It'd be SO FUN. I'd call the collection "The Marvelous Misadventures of Jacqueline Frost", maybe throw the middle initial in there for shiggles, and go to TOWN
The AMOUNT of RESEARCH I'd have to do for ANY OF THEM tho is...daunting at my present position in life, to say the least, BUT!! WOULD ABSOLUTELY WRITE MORE OF HER SHENANIGANS TY FOR ASKING šŸ„°šŸ„°
(writer would you ever)
