This idea came to me in a dream and it impacted me so violently i had to sit down for a while
Diana being ADAM'S daughter instead of Lawrence's. Financially struggling single father Adam. Trying-his-best father Adam. Can anybody hear me




#i also get to project the experience of growing up poor onto Diana lmfao#with the way their ages match up I wonder if she'd be his Young Adult Accident™ or just the daughter of an ex gf he ended up taking care of#Lawrence would swear up and down he's not really a kids person until Diana comes along and he just falls head over heels for her#buying her toys and treats and planning fun little trips to amusement parks#all the stuff Adam can't afford#calling her the sappiest most embarrassing pet names of all time lmao#saw#saw fanart#saw movies#adam faulkner stanheight#adam faulkner#adam stanheight#lawrence gordon#diana gordon#saw lawrence#saw adam#chainshipping#latenightsundayblues art tag

I genuinely cant sit through miscommunication plots or like. Stories where the character is so clearly laying lie on top of lie on top of lie in such a gritting-your-teeth-oh-no kinda way, like. Why is this enjoyable. Why is this funny? They are lying to everyones faces and its not even usually for a good reason its usually bc said character wanted to continue to look good or theyre trying to gain something or I DUNNO. SOMETHING SELFISH. Maybe if it was a DECENT reason like “oh im trying to protect someone” maybe ok start building the tower of lies i guess but NO its never even a good reason its always STUPID and USUALLY COULD BE FIXED IF YOU JUST STOPPED LYING BADLY
#i remember one time my friend put on a movie where it was this guy who kept lying to his wife about his job that he got fired from#and then he lied about being able to afford a trip to the bahamas or something to look good in front of her friends#and then he lied about the quality of the flight#and it kept going for like 30 mins of this guy just LYING and the wife just being mildly disappointed but going along#and i turned to my friend like: what is this even about#she was like: it gets good dont worry#it did not#it so did not

#don’t know if I’m being wrong in making ideas up for things to do#but what if I went on a relief trip to Appalachia and went to TWO instead of one conferences this year and volunteered at a museum and#worked a day a week at a country bar and learned animation and went to school#and also went on two more trips one for friends one to help a friend#and also put on a retreat#that’s a lot of stuff#is that selfish to try for trips? is it unwise?#who knows!#better question could I even afford that

last thing i’ll say; people aren’t owed free content but creatives aren’t owed financial compensation either
#i say all this as a cretive btw lets head that off#their bottom line was ‘we want more money to make bigger things and we cant afford to so we want more money in order to do them’#and that is a valid desire#but you cant just expect everyone to go along with that just bc you want it#watcher got where they are due to a loyal viewer base#to reject money from corporations in favour of money from that viewer base? thats skeevy#to default to a complete and absolute paywall removing all your content then pretend that you weren't going to? thats skeevy#to make a countdown to an announcement then make the announcement a somber trip down memory lane#and an ‘if only we can make more stuff like this wink wink’? thats skeevy#and its skeevy bc theyre a company and no matter how personable they are companies are not your friend#are they the rich we should be eating? no#but when your ceo drives a tesla and eats expensive food that is written off as a buisness expense#AND you have a patreon that you dont capitalise on but still brings you on average 100k a month#you cant act like youre a hard done by creative#endevouring to make more elaborate creations is a good idea#monetisation is a good idea#absolute monetisation with no thought to an alternative isnt#name one indie artist that relies entirely on paid content ill wait#coming out of my cage and ive been doing just fine.txt#watcher#shane madej#ryan bergara#steven lim#hey there demons it’s me ya boy#ghost files

#don’t like poppy playtime and i cannot casually let myself enjoy anything rn im constantly on high alert#ik trumps busy burning america from the inside but his near daily jokes/threats against canada is terrifying#my bosses have suggested we pay a lockdown kit (since we live in the capital) and#they’re both looking into getting their PAL license (gun license) and guess what!!#all of the palCert courses in the surrounding area are booked up for weeks out#our military is shopping for submarines#and fuckingggggggghh dump is claiming our border treaty is invalid ���#and lutnick said canada is acting like ukraine in NOT BEING GRATEFUL OR SAYING THANK YOU#if you’re avoiding the news for your own mental health i don’t blame you but also#be semi aware of what’s going on. ICE has a canadian detained who was coming through mexico to the USA on a consulting visa#she’s still detained for absolutely no reason#my bosses and other family friends have cancelled pre planned and booked trips#others who can’t afford not to take the trip they paid for have said this will be their last trip for the foreseeable future#the us/can relationship we’ve had for so long is just crumbling because of a stupid old man that no one will say no to

Thinking about steddie future where they're both just average guys. No rockstars, no basketball players just two Normal men living a normal life because honestly? they deserve it. They deserve soft domesticity and happiness.
They both have jobs they like but don't love and they're happy with that. Eddie maybe becomes an electrician, working for someone else's company. His coworkers are chill, he gets to get out and work with his hands and that's more than he could have asked for. Steve is a physical therapist, or a manager in some business. He likes his team and the steady hours. He's not working for his dad which is a plus.
They buy a house together, that's not a mansion but it's not a trailer either. Steve does a lot of the dishes because Eddie hates it, hates the feeling of old food on the plates and cutlery. So Eddie will kiss Steve on the cheek and does the laundry because Steve fucking hates laundry. And sitting on the floor watching TV while he folds clothes is honestly sort of relaxing?? Love is doing the chores your partner hates.
Steve and Robin go out for brunch at least once a month, where they catch up and gossip for hours and hours and Steve comes home lighter with updates on Robin and Vickie. Eddie will have nightly phone calls with Wayne, where they talk and laugh and Eddie will eventually hand the phone over to Steve so he and Wayne can talk sports together. When he's in town Dustin will come over and stay in their spare room and they laugh and joke so much it's just like old times. They go over to Jeff's house for dinner on a semi regular basis, and it's nice having normal friends.
They adopt a very annoying cat who will climb all over them in bed and meow in their faces when they don't wake up to feed it breakfast in time. Steve will go for jogs on a Saturday morning, coming home to Eddie reading in bed. Some old western book Wayne recommended to him. There's a steaming cup of coffee waiting on their bedside tables that Eddie's prepared.
They take time off of work and go on a week long vacation because they can do that now. They do dorky touristy things and Eddie buys a mug to send to Wayne. Steve takes a lot of dorky photos of the two of them.
Idk they deserve to be normal and alive and happy with no upside down anymore <3
Oh I love this! I had actually been thinking about tradesman Eddie for a little bit I am so, so glad you’ve come up with this!
I can so completely see him learning a trade and just getting employed and put through his time by a small local employer! He has to go through his exams and that part of it worries him when he first gets the job but his team end up being really supportive and Steve stays up late with him, practicing circuits and wiring and quizzing him on currents and volts. Eddie returning the favour, letting Steve mark up his muscles and be a living anatomy dummy. Sure it gets a little sexy from time to time but more often than not it’s just them testing each other as Steve identifies bones and Eddie talks about parallel circuits.
The monthly brunches mentally and physically revive Steve after working extended hours with patients that he really does want the best for but a jobs a job and it can get pretty tiring. They joke that they rebalance each others chakras but they really do feel realigned after their meet ups. Eddie can see it to, sometimes he’ll come pick them up when it’s been a boozy brunch and delights in seeing them happy and light, clambering over each other to tell Eddie something about one of the waiters or an especially good dish they ordered. When he drops Robin home Steve sits in the front and looks at peace and Eddie feels the same way.
Their weekends are for them, sometimes that means staying home and cleaning the whole place between ordering food in and sometimes that means going on a day trip and taking Wayne around all the antique spots around the county and seeing what horrors they can uncover. Top spot currently sits with Wayne’s find of a doll whose limbs had been replaced with horse legs and had the head of a fish. Of course they bought it.
Every time they go on a holiday they make sure to send postcards to everyone, including themselves, seeing if they’ll get home before the postcard does. Steve keeps them in a photo album, each with a Polaroid of them next to it. Sometimes taken by a stranger, sometimes just a close up of their faces squashed together. It’s Eddie’s favourite thing to go through on their anniversary, or any day really, just loves being reminded that this is the life they get to have.
It’s mundane, dare say even normal, but they love it. Steve comes home every night, happy to put his scrubs in the washing machine next to Eddie’s uniform, happy to be where he feels loved.
#momo :((((( you never put a foot wrong and your words are Art#I honestly feel very lucky to receive them#cat dads is so painfully true. they buy it the best food they can afford and toys and cat nip and pander to its every need#and it just loves them so aggressively for it. they have one of those baby slings for it#I love them doing dorky tourist stuff!!! I want them messing with perspective to create funny photos like holding buildings#Steve being on the phone with Wayne for the entirety of the game so they can discuss it real time. sometimes it’s just silence and Eddie#will go to speak and both Steve and Wayne will stress shush him so he goes off to meet Jeff and the guys#sometimes the guys come over and they have a night of whatever movie has come out on tape#it’s domestic and normal and they get old and happier#they go to whatever gig eddie gets tickets for. they go on their first trip abroad. they host Christmas.#(only the once though. neither of them have recovered from that experience)#idk you are just so right they can just be normal guys in love and being happy#sorry this isn’t the best reply I’m very rusty. I just love your ideas#thank you so much I really mean it#momo#stranger things#eddie munson#steddie#steve harrington#ask

Random and excuse my ignorance but how exactly do you manage to travel and get around countries ( Europe) without knowing the language(s)? (unless you secretly know like 5 languages).
huh? ppl travel to countries where they don't speak the language all the time anon. but it helps to have someone who speaks it with you. in germany I had my ex, in italy I had my mom & sister, in switzerland (briefly) I had to try to get by with my french to find my way to the airport alone but honestly if you're in the big cities there's enough ppl who speak english. then of course in the UK it wasn't an issue. those are the only European countries I've been to unless driving through austria for 40 mins counts.
#my next trip whenever the hell I can afford it wipl be japan & I'll have my best friend. I understand a lot of japanese but shes#obv a fluent speaker & reader as she lives there#asks

I've been looking forward to seeing my friend who moved down here literally since September . the day she left . But then she couldn't afford her ticket and her parents wouldn't help and I was trying not to think about it lest I have a mental breakdown. But my parents said they'll pay for half of her ticket :) so I still get to see her and go to animal kingdom with her :)

#she had unexpected vet bills which is why she couldn't afford it which i totally understand#and i also understand her parents not being able to afford it#but . i did witness her mom telling her they would buy it#so 💀 lowkey a little salty about that#if they truly cant afford it i understand and thats ok but i kinda feel like they're just like . no we dont feel like it.#even tho we previously said yes.#and if thats the case im a little salty#but its all ok bc shes still coming!!!!!!#wdw trip*#on the road again*

Perhaps it's just my own environment of heightened class awareness, but I find it interesting--almost jarring, one might say--that Mina understands perfectly clearly the wealth gap between Lucy and herself and just doesn't seem to have any Feelings about it whatsoever. No resentment, no envy, not even really much musing on how it might have shaped their respective experiences. Lucy and her fiancé are rich. My fiancé and I are not. C'est la Vie.
#dracula#dracula daily#maybe if Mina and Jonathan were truly poor rather than just middle class the subject would become unavoidable#Still--could she have afforded this trip to Whitby without the Westenras hospitality?
