#and and cant do her work without relying on her friends for help

[blepmor]

sometimes i wish that i could just throw myself on the floor dramatically and kick my fists and bang my legs and just start wailing in discontent for my situation which is simply terrible and the hardest ever, most definitely. i do not want to do homework. i want to have time to crochet and play my music and play my drums and lay on the ground and rest my eyes and ears because the world is loud and bright. why must it be this way? why must stress from the day cut into my life? and im only in high school, without a job. what will i do when the inevitable time comes to become Employed and I have even less time to myself? what will i do when i don't have time to be this dramatic anymore? the world is full of angry mosquitoes of stress and despair

however, i will live, because Phone Time Before Bed is alive and well and the world is beautiful

Magical boy Xie Lian; his hair becomes long when he transforms but when he detransforms, it becomes a bob style. His elemental power is light, or whatever, and he wields a sword or scepter. In a particularly bad fight, he reminded of his past life as XianLe Prince and all that jazz, and he breaks under the pressure, but Hua Cheng helps him while Feng Xin and Mu Qing fight. This makes me froth at the mouth.

Hua Cheng would have the elemental of darkness or whatever (I’m going off of colors) because he’s mysterious ig. He doesn’t care so much about himself, but he’s quite selfless for Xie Lian, and respects him. He’s the yin to Xie Lian’s Yang; he balances them out, and he’s there to care for Xie Lian. He understands Xie Lian inside and out, but doesn’t force him to do anything. He fights with a scimitar.

Mu Qing would be Aqua because he’s catty, but logical. He’s terrible at expressing himself and is called cold by most, but he just wants f-f-friends. He also starts to warm up to Feng Xin, and finds himself relying on him too much for simple things, or affection. Like a cat. He fights with a polearm or sword.

Feng Xin would be fire because he’s warm but brash. His bashful ways typically get Xie Lian and Mu Qing in trouble when they’re in a fight, but when the time comes, he still manages to work with Mu Qing. He’s also very kind to others and is besties with Jian Lian despite their rough dating history. He fights with a bow and arrow, but has a dagger as back up.

Shi Qingxuan would be aqua or grassy because she’s carefree and bubbly. Shi Qingxuan cares deeply for others without a second thought, but she’s not quick to put them first because she understands she has her times too. She befriends everyone and makes a lasting impression on them, friends and foes alike. She’s a mentor to Xie Lian, and helps him stand out. She would fight with a whip or moon ring blades.

He xuan would also be dark like Hua Cheng, but he holds actually bad intent. He’s reserved, calculated and cold. He holds no interest in helping others, but he does so because he’s “friends” with Shi Qingxuan and Hua Cheng. He fights with pistols that hold a special powder to disable or stun foes.

Qi rong would be grass because he wears green, but he’s also a loud person and he secretly cares about Guzi and Xie Lian. He wields a giant hammer because he’s so clumsy.

Yin yu would be aqua because he cool headed, helpful, and logical about most things. He’s also a huge helper with Hua Cheng and a good friend to Xie Lian. He fights with a staff and can summon different things to help fights. He also good with hitting people with his staff.

Mei Nianqing would be a mentor to Xie Lian and his little trip, but lose his powers after a particularly vicious incident. His powers would’ve been dark, and he would be a typical catalyst or wielded a staff like Yuna from FF10 or a scepter.

Jun Wu’s elements are light like Xie Lian, and he’s the “ideal father”. After doing a series of mishaps, he gave up his powers temporarily until he gets therapy, which was when he met Xie Lian. He cares deeply for Xie Lian and Mei Nianqing. And deciding to be good, he gains his powers back to help guide Xie Lian.

[jamethinks]

hello! what do u think of yuriona as a ship???

Hey babe, thank you so much for this question.

First we gotta break down the characters. Will try to stick to the canon but sometimes I cant tell the difference.

Yuri: When I think of yuri, I think about a young boy who suffered a great deal of trauma that turned into an unhealthy and confusing bond with his older sister. It's unlikely Yor dealt with the situation with tact (hc), but Yuri is a surprisingly smart and a lot more clever than people give him credit for, so I think he knew that and understood it. Growing up, not only was he an orphan but also a genius (I smell autism) who likely struggled with bonding with kids his age and would have felt very alienated once he got to uni at 14. At his core, he's a lonely person who, despite his bright personality, just doesn't know how to bond with people. His unhealthy attachment to his sister isn't helping, but now she's preoccupied it could push him to being more emotionally independent.

Fiona/Nightfall: not a lot is known as to why Nightfall is the way that she is (I'm not gonna say why but we all know the answer) so it's hard to gain a full understanding of her. What we do know is that she is dedicated and brilliant. She's good at her job and enjoys doing it. Again, there is no context on why she adores Twilight (aside from him just being Twilight), so that's again a gap in her character. Still she's committed to him regardless of whether or not he's will to return those feelings.

Hc for Nightfall (just to contextualize her): she suffered a great deal of abuse and isolation growing up. She never had anyone to rely on emotionally. She has some form of trauma that she carries around with her. Her attraction to Twilight is more metaphorical than literal. She likes what he represents. He's the kind of person she needed in her life to feel safe, and so now she clings to him like a lifeline.

Similarities: they're both people that are "in love" with someone they can't have and probably don't really want. They both have this gap in themselves with these clunky fillers that they at some point have to replace. Yuri has to learn how to live without his sister, and Fiona has to learn how to live with Twilight. Also, they're both somewhat alienated in their own communities. Yuri has friends now in the SSS, but growing up, he was a lonely kid who only had his sister. Nightfall isn't very liked within WISE, with a lot of people disliking her for her personality and work ethic. The only friend she has there is Twilight.

Potential as a pair: I think they both have a lot to learn from each other, but mostly Fiona. I'm not sure what Yuri did to get friends in the SSS, but he can teach her a thing or two about opening up to people. But since he was in the same position (and funnily enough, his sister had a similar issue), he wouldn't force her to step out of her comfort zone. I think Yuri would be the one person who appreciates her oddities and drive. He won't find her intimidating or threatening, just simply her. She can also provide him with a friendship that's forged more naturally, not a coworker or whatever homoerotic vibe his with Dominic. But a person he met and kept around, especially someone who probably wasn't going to be very friendly in the first place lmao.

Conclusion: they mirror each other in fun ways and I would love to see them together but only in fanfics I don't want Endo to touch it with a 5 foot pole.

Lastly, couply hcs:

No one gets what Yuri sees in fiona since she's the polar opposite of Yor but to him they're like twins

Most people don't think Fiona is into him because of her expressions but he gets it. That little lip twitch isn't anger, she's flustered

He likes to show up at her job and bring her lunch

Surprisingly, Fiona is into physical touch and likes holding his hand when they're together

When Yuri found out she times their interactions he got her a little book so she can write it done and he would analyze it for her

Fiona doesn't take photos of herself, so Yuri just draws her from memory so he can put them in his locker

Fiona gets sad when Yuri isn't around for too long

She also starts wearing more colours so that he would point it out but then he told her she doesn't have to dress for him so she stuck to her muted palate

He flirts by tucking her hair behind her ear

Yuri gives great hugs and Fiona loves a good warm hug (touch of the tism)

Fiona has allergies (hc) so Yuri avoids giving her too many flowers and instead brings her fancy Mexican candy

I also hc that Fiona has like 3 cats and loves cats so Yuri now loves cats and helps her care for them and regularly babysits them and again doesn't question her odd relationship with them

[secondgenerationnerd]

Cool stuff about the twins! :D can you do the same with Johnny boy?

Ooooo absolutely! (And if anyone wants to request Jai’s reaction to the amount of smut his sister reads, I’ll happily write it 😂😂😂)

While he admires his father, he chafes at people only looking at him as “Superman’s Son” or “Clark’s boy”. He has tiny acts of rebellion���his hair is usually messier than his father’s, he doesn’t shave that often, he prefers fiction/nonfiction writing to journalism, etc. Again, he loves his father, he just doesn’t want to be his clone.

The Omega Boys play DND every Wednesday night, as a way to relax and hang out. One campaign, Jon played a Hick Elf, complete with a thick accent. He proceeded to flirt with Mar’i in the accent and made her blush.

Also helped Milagro in her “Noir” shoot

Not shown, Mar’i shamelessly checking out his butt

He genuinely forgets he doesn’t need glasses sometimes. Milagro, who I headcannon wears contacts but none of them knew, had to wear her spare glasses. They look almost identical to Jon’s. They’d set them near each other after a training session. Milagro put Jon’s on and immediately walked into a wall. Jon put hers on and got an instant migraine.

He absolutely adores his nephews and nieces. He’s Uncle Jojo and spoils them rotten

I think he finds comfort in cooking and baking. Like Omega usually rotates responsibilities, but Jon volunteers to do most of it anyway.

All the omega boys have a “non-sexual slutty” moment the girls can’t stop thinking about. For Jon, it’s him in the middle of kneading bread, glasses sliding down his nose, shirt sleeves rolled up his forearms, singing alone to the radio. I will not be taking questions or complaints at this time.

Jon truly loves his brothers. Like are they annoying as hell? Yes. Does he want to punch them half the time? Absolutely. Would he kill anyone who hurt them? Without question.

While he’s definitely the most powerful on the team, I do think he would rely on that power to help in a fight. This is in comparison to Mar’i, who was raised around several martial art masters.

Literally started calling Mar’i his wife when they were like 17. They’d been dating about three years and she thinks it’s absolutely, ridiculously adorable.

Realized he was bisexual because of Matty West, his first “guy kiss” being Jack (since Jack has kissed Mar’i for dances). He thought he had it handled okay. Then made the mistake of telling Lian, when their families were over, that there’s no question she could ask in front of his parents he wouldn’t answer or they wouldn’t have figured out. Lian’s response? “You cant date Mar’i anymore. Who on this team are you dating instead and why?” Boy froze in pure bi panic

Anytime an animal is staying in omega tower, they’re given the best food.

He enjoys working on his grandparents farm, helping Pa as he ages, but he wouldn’t want to have a huge farm himself.

You know the trope of “girlfriend’s father HATES her boyfriend”? Yeah, Dick refers to Jon as “My Future Son-in-law” to everyone. Like Dickie knows they’re end game lol

Jon and Kathy Brandon love to tease each other about being little kids, running around the farms, pushing each other into the mud. Jon also helps to do chores around her and Maya’s house. When it’s firewood time, Mar’i and Maya pull up chairs to watch them work. Shamelessly I should add

Very very very much soft dom energy. Like he’s usually good with listening or letting people assume, but there’s a side of him that comes out that MAKES people listen

He and Colin always find away to tease Damian about how whipped he is for Irey.

Damian: hey, be safe

Irey: I will *speeds off*

Jon: *dramatic whisper* be safe

Colin: *fake swoon* I’ll be so safe

Disrespect him, he’ll shrug it off. Disrespect his teammates or friends? Y’all are gonna have a “conversation”. Disrespect his family? No words, on sight. Disrespect his WIFE? He will actually kill you.

I don’t know how or why, but at some point, Comics Jon and his boyfriend, Jay Nakamura, appear in omega tower. Jay and Mar’i? Instant best friends determined to sass their boyfriends

He’s the kinda guy who will get you a drink and just sit with you when shit goes down, until you’re ready to talk.

serious post ew look away but i need to vent for a second

it's infuriating how fast i can go from feeling amazing to feeling like actual garbage. just this week i was happy that things are looking up for me and mulder and my little petsitting business was taking off and i was doing good at college only for things to go bad again because it always feels like im not allowed to enjoy feeling happy for too long

i know i sound super dramatic right now but i can't help it thats my natural reaction to things. im dramatic. its who i am.

my roommate is moving out possibly this week and im glad because we haven't been getting along well recently but also the bills are piling up and i was already on the edge of it as it was but i could still maintain things. but i just learned that my landlord wants to raise rent 10% unexpectedly and i know it isn't a lot and i can probably still pay it but it's still scary. it'll be my first time living 100% on my own and i have a cat to care for (thank goodness because if i had to live actually alone i dnt know what id do lol but with a cat relying on me i know im safe) and it's just. i dont know. it kind of feels like a lot. i dont know if im ready for this if ill do well if ill be okay and i hate that so much. everything is so expensive and im looking for a job but it's so so hard to find one i can do while still having time to spare for college and im scared that my grades will drop because this semester has been really hard and I'm really insecure about my own intellectual abilities. and keeping an entire apartment clean by myself. can i even do that. i struggle with keeping my room liveable sometimes what if i fuck up and the house gets super dirty and it's embarrassing and i can never bring anyone over in fear of them finding out what a fucking mess i am. not that my friends come over a lot obviously. i dont know if my friends like me very much. one of them drifted away from me after i fucked up twice once by sleeping with one of her friends and making things super awkward because he fell for me but i dont like him that way and twice because my roommate and i aren't that good right now and my roommate is also a close friend of hers. and i have other friends but i always feel like i cant keep long lasting meaningful friendships if we see each other often because i fucking suck. i think im just a little bit of a mess right now and it's. exhausting. im scared. im scared and money is running thin and i can always ask my parents for more but im scared of doing that too because my mom always makes it seem like i own her something when she gives me money. which i guess i do so it makes sense. but im tired of owning things to people and i was trying to go by without depending on her so much but i guess im not ready for that. im almost 19 and i feel 13 when things started crashing around me for the first time and it's a little more than a month to my birthday which is often a shit time because of bad things that happened there and i dont know dude i dont fucking know i think im just overwhelmed i wish i could go to therapy again but i don't have the money or the time really. at least i have mulder. ill always have my cat. i love him so much. at least i have him. i have to hope things will get better. i have to hope and work for things to get better and i know this because i worked before and it worked. but god im tired and i just wish i could go to sleep and not wake up to bad news for once. i wish i could go to sleep. fucking hell

[angelcloves]

For Circus Animals, I think the key to Amity's redemption is the Good Witch Azura connection. Perhaps reintroducing Luz to Good Witch Azura after the circus trauma might help.

For endings, I'm obviously Team Dadrius for Hunter. As for Luz, she does need to return to Camila and express her desire to stay in the demon realm despite everything because she feels understood there and belongs.

agreed on the azura content but im having a hard time splitting hunter and luz up long enough for either of them to have independent moments let alone with an antagonist. im thinking luz is going to develop some negative feelings towards hunter seeming to bloom into a sweet and social kid now that he has flapjack and friends in willow and gus and a positive parental figure in darius. so i think thats a good act 2 conflict but i just need to execute it cleanly without bumping luz too ooc for being jealous or relying on misunderstandings to make it work

and worry not. dadrius is my endgame for hunter. but i do still need to work in conflicts with belos and the day of unity. everything has to tie up all neatly and we cant forget that this is still looming over everyones heads

[mrfrunky]

Is always strange because i’ve only had the strangest thing. I feel like I’ve never infantilised people during a game. But one of the lowest points in my gaming career was with a player that insisted to go 3 lvls in sorcerer and 2 in monk. Not only becoming someone who can barely do combat (as someone with a whopping 10 con and 30 hp at lvl 5) but as someone who also cant do shit for damage because they think they can just stick their fingers in both pies and expect to be equal to people that already have extra attack and 3rd level spells. Whenever we tried to give her advice she always accused us of being dismissive towards her even though we just wanted her to have fun in the game like the rest of us. And i even remember one of the solutions for her shit build problem was to essentially create a better version of my character (a bear druid variant human totem barbarian) and then getting mad at me when I try to tell her that half the backstory and ideas she cooked up for this character is intrusive to me personally (and the backstory that I worked with the DM with) and doesnt even make sense within the setting.

She always pulled the “you are patronizing me” card whenever my friend and I would try to help her with her build without blatantly saying “you are correct, heres how we can make you more strong without you having to change anything”, as if D&D 5e isn’t a game that still sometimes relies on good character building, that kind of stuff addled my mind for a good while because she made me feel like I was a dick just for trying to help her have a better experience in D&D (without ruining other peoples experiences).

As someone who is two of those things, the assertion that femmes, POC and queer people will be gatekept from games via the expectation that they make an effort to learn the rules is extremely infantilising. There have historically been unfair barriers placed in front of those people within the TTRPG hobby as a whole, including a culture that has been casually sexist, racist and queerphobic which I feel is still an ongoing issue even though things are slowly getting better, but to claim that expecting people to make an effort to learn the rules is in any way gatekeeping is bizarre. To conflate asking people to learn the rules with actual gatekeeping diminishes actual barriers to entry in this hobby while also being super infantilising.

[crypt1dcorv1dae]

Apparently my dad fucking submitted an application to work for Trump's stupid fucking "doge" shit. I hate this so much. I hate this SO MUCH. I want to leave I want to fucking leave but I can't because my mom is disabled and so am I and I need to take care of her and I can't survive on my own and. What the fuck do you do . What the fuck do you do when the family that so strongly opposed everything you are is also the person you rely on for survival???? WHAT DO YOU DO?????? And it's not as if it's just a matter of money or something because even if I could afford to leave I CANT. I CANT LEAVE MY MOM.

I'm so ... I'm so fucking tired.... Just ... All the time....... I've been stuck in this house what feels like forever and every time I have any chance to leave for even a little while feels like getting my first breath of fresh air in years and I want to be free to be myself without fear or judgement from the people I live with but I can't because I'm trapped. I'm trapped by my the fact that someone needs to care for my mom. Someone has to be here 24/7 to make sure she's safe and healthy and fed and I could never abandon her but I'm so fucking tired. And I'm so fucking scared. It's only going to get worse and I'm so so fucking scared. I don't know what to do. I wish I had anyone to talk to but I DONT... I have my friends online and they're amazing and I love them so much but it's not the same as being able to just... Fall apart and know that someone who loves you, someone who UNDERSTANDS you, will help you out yourself back together. It's not the same as having a shoulder to cry on. I don't know when the last time I fully fell apart and didn't have to censor myself about what I was REALLY upset about was... Maybe never. I wish I could visit my friends so badly but I don't even have money to buy a pair of shoes that actually fit me, let alone fly out hundreds of miles to see someone I've never even met irl. I guess maybe I could scrape together enough to like... Take buses or trains or something... But then how the hell would I get back...

Dear Friends, 👋🥹

My name is Motasem Bashir, a Palestinian citizen from Gaza. 🇵🇸 For 25 years, I worked tirelessly as a photographer and screenwriter, striving to build a future after tragically losing my parents and elder brother during the first war on Gaza when I was just nine years old.😭💔

Before October 7th, I was on the verge of achieving stability and pursuing my dreams. Now, I find myself trapped in Gaza amidst constant bombardment and a severe lack of basic human rights.

I've launched this campaign to evacuate from Gaza and rebuild my shattered life. The funds raised will cover transportation costs, temporary housing, and replacing essential work equipment lost in the bombings. Additionally, I need support for clothes and temporary residence in Egypt during this transition.🇵🇸💔💔

Introduction

I fled my home in Al-Karama neighborhood amidst phosphorus bombs that left my neighborhood in ruins. Miraculously surviving, I sheltered with a friend, only to find my sister and her children trapped under debris from a bombing. Risking everything, I helped them escape amid flames.😭

The next day, the house I stayed in was bombed, forcing me to relocate multiple times across northern Gaza. On October 13, amid escalating violence, I joined thousands in a perilous journey southward. Enduring unimaginable suffering, I lived in countless precarious shelters, surviving multiple bombings, including one that destroyed my neighborhood.

I've faced displacement, moving homes eighteen times across Gaza, battling financial hardship and discrimination. Now, I seek your support in rebuilding shattered lives and providing hope amidst Gaza's turmoil. Together, we can make a difference.

Loss of My Home 🏠 💣

I was fortunate to have left for the south because a few days later, the army began its military operation in the Al-Karama neighborhood. Violent clashes ensued, resulting in the destruction of my house and those around it. It took a month before anyone could return to take photos. I was heartbroken to learn that I had lost the place that had sheltered me, even if it was cold and without my family. To make matters worse, the rest of my property had been stolen . 😭

Life in the South

My daily life has become unbearable due to severe financial difficulties, constant fear of bombings, and the monopolization of essential goods pushing prices beyond reach. I also face hostility, airborne illnesses, and a dire lack of resources like electricity, clean water, and hygiene supplies. Malnutrition is a constant struggle, and I often rely on canned food as fresh produce and proteins are rarely available. Despite these hardships, I find solace in brief, safe walks and connecting with others who understand my situation.

Who Was I Before October 7th? 🎥

I was financially independent, collaborating with international companies, and ready to embark on a freelance filmmaking career. I had recently invested in new equipment, including a camera and a laptop, to further my creative pursuits. Sadly, all my plans were shattered by the relentless bombings that not only destroyed my home but also the banks where I kept my savings.

Final Thoughts 🥹🙏

Your support, whether big or small, will make an immense difference in my journey to rebuild. With your help, I can escape the horrors of war and create a new life for myself in a safer environment. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being my beacon of hope.

With heartfelt appreciation,

Motasem Bashir ���

Because helping financially helped me morally and physically 💔.

@kusatta asked: how do you expect people to get through this without friends? / rina

【 ★ 】 — send me memes ! ;

upon his return to u.a after seemingly working alone, izuku is given a hot bath and some food. the night is used to rest up, but before he can start training with the rest of his classmates, he's sent to miss nakamura's office. dread fills him, weighing him down like blocks of cinder tied to his ankles. he's never felt this way before when he had his sessions with miss nakamura previously. perhaps there had been moments of feeling anxious, having carried the secret of one for all, but nothing this heavy before.

he doesn't want to have this conversation with her. the last few weeks have been him pushing everything he feels down, hiding his emotions, and pretending like he was fine. his body still ached from overworking itself and the guard he put up would not be lowered with just one session.

they didn't have time for that.

with a heavy sigh, he opens the door and he steps in. he's greeted with the sweet scent of miss nakamura's perfume and he can't help but feel safe for just a moment. it felt like he was back home as a young boy, held tenderly in his mother's arms as she lulled him to sleep. he shakes himself out of it and closes the door behind him before he takes his usual seat across from her. he can see her pink notepad on her desk with his name neatly scrawled at the top of it, ready to be filled with whatever he decides -- or doesn't decide -- to share today.

she greets him as she usually does, bubbly and warm. she tells him she's glad that he's back safe and sound, and that he can help himself to any of the snacks or drinks on her snack bar. she stocked his favorite, she points out. he glances over at the aforementioned snack bar and his brows furrow just the slightest. he tells her he isn't hungry, but thanks her. his mother would be upset with him if he'd forgotten his manners.

the session begins as it always does; she asks him how he's feeling, if there's anything he wants to talk about. he supposes there's no point in her asking about his school work when he hasn't been here. his answers are short, disconnected. she scribbles on her notepad at an angle where he can't see what she's writing.

"--riya? midoriya, are you alright? we can take a break if it's too much."

"what?" his gaze snaps to hers, confusion clear on his face. she seizes him up a moment before she's putting her notepad on her desk, face down. he feels a chill run down his spine. it isn't danger sense, so he knows he's not in any danger. . . but the way she's looking at him makes him anxious. like she's looking into his soul and he doesn't want her to see what he's hiding.

"how do you expect people to get through this without friends?" her voice is soft, kind, just as it always is. but there's a weight to it that izuku isn't used to hearing from her. he parts his lips and then closes them, glancing around the room as if someone else had walked in while he had been disassociating.

"what?" he asks again, mouth dry. rina folds her hands neatly on her desk, head canting just the slightest. she repeats her question, just as she had said it the first time. izuku exhales softly. "i. . . i don't. it's good for people to rely on each other."

"then why are you having such a hard time relying on your friends?" she watches him like a hawk, and when he parts his lips to say he came back with them, she continues speaking. "i'm not here to make you share what you're feeling, izuku. i'm here to help you, but i can't do that if you won't let me. you've kept a very big secret for a long time, and. . ." she inhales softly, something flickering in her eyes, something he can't quite place, ". . . everyone has really high stakes in this. i know the world may feel like it rests on your shoulders and your shoulders alone, but it doesn't."

"but it does." he sits upright, curling scarred hands into fists on his lap. "whether or not we-- come out on top depends on whether or not i can get through to tenko. if i can stop all for one. i. . . i appreciate what you're trying to say, and i-- i'm sorry. i know a lot of people are risking it all, but in the end, it has to be me. i can't. . . i can't drag anyone else further into this than i already have. i don't want anyone else to lose those who are important to them." he stands, suddenly, running a hand through green curls. "i'm sorry miss nakamura. i-- i have to go."

Unfortunatelly fate dosnt work that way and as such, the epic journey of 3 souls beggan all while is dangling in a massive colums of lies, as long as no body discovers somenthing that they shouldnt know a calm trip is guaranteed. Shame things never happend like that.

I want to move on, I dont want to be upset. I dont want to be typing for hours about my frustrations. I wish I could type for hours about how things are good. But there is more. I don’t feel like a priority and he is constantly telling me i am. It makes me want to scoff and laugh.. It is literally laughable. He tries to make me feel better and be happy but he isn’t solving any o my fucking issues. When I talk to him, very frequently he blows past what I am saying to appease or comfort me. That is good and i want those things sometimes but honestly a lot of times when I am talking to him i dont really have a solution or an action item but when he completely ignores what i say it pisses me off. And he doesn’t completely ignore what I am saying.

Example: say I am talking about how the car situation isnt ideal, he would say… and has said, well when Katie moves in she has a car and then I can use Katies car as my primary car. Like ok. That isnt ignoring what I said but it is definitely missing the point. I want my own car. I am salty and upset that I sold it and now I do not have money, a car, or any assets. Cool I can drive her car, I dont want to. I want my own car so I can do what I would like with it, keep it spotless with no one else driving it so it stays the way I like. Filling up the gas tank and being able to use it all. Not filling up the tank for someone else to use it all up and then return the car. Also, if we break up with Katie it is literally the same situation where I do not have a car and I am bumming off of someone else. I really dont mind bumming off someone else but It needs to be something they want and are happy about and also i dont want to feel forced into that. I want my own car. I dont want to have to rely on someone else or be a burden on someone else.

That is a good example and it happens very frequently. I say how I am not happy with the present, my work-life balance and a lot of things. Most things right now I am not happy about. Anyways, then he goes on to say well in the future we wont have to work and etc etc etc the domestic duties will be split between me and Katie which is a positive but I feel like completely missing the point again! Like I dont enjoy the domestic duties, but going straight into the future optimistic mode annoys me. Well what about right now? What about 5 / 10 years before we get to the future where we dont have to work and have passive income. When?? Ok cool that future does excite me but lets be realistic here. How do we get from point A to point B. I feel like I am dying and he keeps talking about 5 to 10 years in the future. I feel like I cant do that, I feel like I need a change now. A positive and easy change, not these changes that are not helping me. I am sure they are helping me in some way that I cannot realize because I am so anxious and worried.

I could be upset about general things for a while. The biggest other main thing that has happened is that Steff got laid off from her job. She will have severance and we basically have enough money to get to the beginning of August. Hah. Our lease ends in Oct. and it might be cheaper to break it and try to find cheaper spots to live but we would need quite a bit of cash for that (which we do not have) Char and Steff do not have any cash, they put everything into their credit payments because if not the interest will eat them up which makes sense. But. here we are. No cash, no credit, not really anything haha. Its not funny but jesus christ.. Everything at once?? Everything at once?? And Steff and Char arent even civil around each other anymore. Steff feels like she is being kicked out of the house, which is not what I want. And Char doesnt see her as a friend or even someone he wants to interact with. Which is fine but puts me in such a shit spot because Steff is my friend and I want to talk to her and comfort her.

At this point it is basically an abusive relationship. Not entirely but. I cannot talk to one person without the other reacting or asking about it. Steff messaged me privately and the notification lit up my phone and Char was asking about what she was saying. It was something calm but like jesus. Steff thinks I am fine because I dont react, well what the fuck am I supposed to do. Everyone else is reacting and being very emotional, so even though I feel that way..it doesn’t benefit me or my partners any to let that out. Ugh.

2022 Recap

A little late but here it is

2022 has come and gone, and a relatively simple year it was.

From a work perspective, nothing really new. Getting more supercomputers in that we are working hard to get going and will continue to receive more this coming year, hopefully with much better progress. Work is work, there is nothing else to tell about it that I can talk about or want to talk about. If you want to ask me about it though, go ahead.

Everything else was an interesting journey. Still managed to not get sick, but I have a feeling it is coming soon. Ive avoided it for many years now as well as other illnesses so not sure how much more I can run and hide from it.

One big change I did this year was get back into dance. I had been trying to do it for a long time and was not in the best shape to do it. But getting the feedback from my doctor that I need to lose weight was a big wake up call. I got back into the dance studio, starting eating better and less, going on more walks, and that has helped me overall to get into better shape and health. I still have a ways to go. But I took my first ballet class in 13 years, but first modern class in 15 years, and my first tap classes again in 7 years. All initial classes were extremely hard and painful on my body, but overall rewarding. I have been taking zumba classes again which have been a huge help as well. I missed being in the dance studio..I use to be in the dance studio 6 days a week every day after school and on saturdays and had so many memories. Most of them dancing of course, but the overall experience with being with my friends and the ones I stay close to today. I miss those days every day spending them in tap shoes, ballet and jazz shoes, and getting there early to hang out with my friends. The hard work we put in made us into a family and although we are all not together anymore, it still gives me those memories to go back to and relive.

I feel like I havent moved on from that point in my life...I still feel like I live in those days and havent grown beyond that. Not that I want to be doing it again, but that it was a special time in my life that I feel like I have not had that after that time. I dont want to let those feelings go and being back in the studio now and dancing again is giving me that chance to be close to the arts and express myself the way I use to, because I feel like I cant and dont anymore, as much as I want do. I dont have the words or courage to really express myself the way I want, but when I dance, I feel like that is when I am most connected and able to express myself the way I want..but thats all I think ill be able to do.

I have relied on everyone close to me this year to help me in many different ways, whether its support me, listen to me, or just overall be there for me. I know I have social anxiety, and I have been trying to work on it, but I know I have a ways to go. I still feel like I dont have anything to say, or cant say anything when Im with others. If we talk about something I know about and interested in it I know I can be more responsive, and I have her to help me with it as she helps to break me out of my shell. I have her in my life, and we have grown so much together all these years, and I think about all the good times with her every single day as its calming and helps me with my anxiety. The smell of coffee and rain will always soothe me as she is the life embodiment of that which calms me. We have been through a lot, and I cant imagine life without her... She is my everything and I dont know what I would do without her. I want her to know how much I love her..she deserves so much better than me, but I need her to know that I will always be there for her through thick and thin and do my best to make sure she is safe and happy forever.

The house has been doing good, we finished putting in the fence which came out so good! she did such a good job of designing and planning it out! Naya loves it so much. It was so much work though...but it was worth it in the end.

The rest of the year was spending it with family and friends, officially getting back together in person for events and just hanging out. It was so great to have so many friends come back into town and get to hang out with them without the worry of masks or getting sick with all of our booster shots. I hope that continues for this year.

A life long friend of mine also get married this year! I am so happy for her and her husband now. My social anxiety didnt really let me go up to them to really congratulate them and talk with them more, but I hope they know how happy we are for them and so excited for them to start this journey together! They dont live in NM anymore, but are not too far away and hope to see them as much as we can when they come back home or I go there for trips and conferences.

I also started more official work with my dance company and helping them more from an official capacity, which I thought I would never do! It has been rewarding and definitely a life experience to be able to help in this way and try and bring the same about of joy and support to the children of NM that my dance company did for me!

D&D adventures continue and we have made so much progress. I love playing with my friends and seeing them every week to do this. This is something I look forward to every single week and I hope they feel the same for me. I tried to do my best for them this year when a lot of things started to get difficult for everyone, and I hope they know they helped me as well. That's what friends are for!

Overall, I think thats all for now. 2023 is aiming to be an interesting year and im looking forward to continue the betterment of my health and hopefully reach my goals. I hope to continue dancing and expressing myself as much as I can, and I hope my knees can continue to carry me through that.

That is all for now!

Hello World! Live long and prosper 🖖and keep the rhythm alive!

[phalacrocoraxdreams]

documenting this trip so i can refer back to this when i am denying/dissociating away my memories later:

teddy 1(/stone) ^above and gray rock-ing, trying to express as few opinions as possible

ruby says shut up after every single thing we say (because 99% of the things we say receive a disapproving response)

drinking more than usual (ie at all)

“turning off” opinions / emotions

i feel ashamed to be this triggered when my family is actually being quite good, for them and in general

that said, very uncomfortable with the emotional closeness my mother is asking for/expects

feel like im falling into old patterns of teaming up with dad against mom. dont like that. i feel like when my dad is angry/bad i play mediator and when my dad is happy i am expected to and do play for his team. because i dont want to make him angry and i will do almost any self-killing thing to do that 😐

my mother asks questions about every emotion or internal experience i express and it makes me hate sharing literally anything with her. its like im up against a fucking inquisition

my dad does this thing where he acts kind of scared/surprised (in a very subtle yet obvious way) of me when i express needs or things he disagrees with, i feel like he relies mostly on seeming rational/using intelligence to manipulate people but he also loves to leave himself a breadcrumb trail to claim victimhood with

ruby has been monologuing for most of today. usual stuff. teddy 1 wrote down a couple pages of it in the notebook. believing what shes saying really helps to get through interacting with mom and dad even though it is frankly vile. 😐

weed truly saves the night

something that is so headfucking about my parents is how unpredictable they are. my dad especially makes it impossible to tell if youre going to set him off so i just avoid everything all the time

my mothers memory is worse (and you know id bet on a partially dissociative explanation) but my father is exaggerating that her memory is worse so he can gaslight her about things

i want to cut so fucking bad dude

i just want to hang out with my grandma somewhere that’s not my parents’ house >:( i feel like i can barely even look at her here it just hurts me so bad not to be able to be loving with her because i cant be a person here at all without becoming absolute overcome with horror. Lol

my sister still rocks. shes developing a hoarding problem and a gambling problem so i cleaned her whole room with her and helped her toss a bunch of stuff/make her space nice and neat so she knows what it feels like. i wish i could be here when she moves out in february :( i wanna help set up her apartment so bad

my brother is my brother 👍🏻 its good to see him i wish he had more friends and his work was less stressful though :( im so glad he lives close by and does xmas with us he truly makes it bearable. he needs to come out and visit me i want him to meet minnesota me

repeating “My stone body. Stone. Untouched and untouchable.” from that eli clare chapter like a talisman

[ackerfics]

omg i had an idea in my head-

When reader comes visits her boys in the corps (a surprise), shes greeted with the 104 (not including her sons they’re prob doing a job for their dad cuz they’re most likely the only ones who cant piss him off ).

They’re in aw and wondering who the hell is she here for?, then caelum and altair pop up and r shocked and come and greet her and stuff, levi prob heard (idk call it his fatherly senses or smthg) and walks out of his office. Reader is too busy with her sons to realise levi walking his way and Reiner flat out says, “Damn, Mrs Ackermann is a MILF.” And proceeds to shit himself when levi puts his hand on his shoulder.

ITS A SHIT VERSION OF THE MINI SCENARIO IN MY HEAD BUT I WANTED TO SHARE IT WITH U. THANK YOU FOR GRACING US WITH THE CANONVERSE EXTRA CHAP. WE LIVE UR WORK<333

LET ME SEND YOU SO MANY VIRTUAL HUGS BC THIS IS AMAZING !! YOU PERFECTLY LAID OUT THE SCENARIO TO ME, DON'T WORRY ^^ AND THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING YOU WROTE IN HERE. TAKE CARE OVER THERE, OKAY? LOVE YOU <3 TAKE THIS DRABBLE AS MY GIFT FOR YOU MWAH

a pleasant surprise — a bonus drabble for the parent trap au ft. levi. (canonverse)

series masterlist

You visiting the survey corps is a normal occurrence for the veterans.

Being one of the nobles behind their finances, you are expected to be in a lot of meetings with the commander, captains, and squad leaders. It's a regular day in the survey corps, a day dedicated to training and conditioning for the upcoming expedition, when you saunter inside the headquarters' property. After receiving that pleasant surprise from your husband and sons a week before, you thought it's best to return the gesture. So, with a basket of their favorite snacks and drinks, you walk with a purpose until you're met with a bunch of teenagers by the training field. They're kids who look to be around the same age as your boys. You assess them behind the brim of your hat and you instantly feel disappointment pooling in your stomach at the absence of your little dreamer and adventurer. The most viable option to know their whereabouts will be asking the recruits.

You do just that.

See, the cadets from the 104th training corps have no idea what the twins' mother looks like. So, witnessing a gorgeous woman walking towards them, clad in a floral milkmaid dress swishing around the middle of her calves ... the sight of her renders them immobile. She's a vision. You're a vision. Not only do you carry yourself with an air of grace and statuesque beauty, but you also seem to be magnetic enough to catch their attention without asking for it. It's like you're a goddess in mortal form favoring them with your presence.

"Excuse me?" you ask the kids with a pretty smile that reaches your eyes, crinkling them in the corners. "Are you perhaps the recruits?"

Armin sputters in response. "Y-Yes, Ma'am! These are my comrades from the 104th Training Corps! How may we help y-you?"

You raise your eyebrows in shock. "104th Training Corps you say?"

The blond rapidly nods. "Y-Yes, Ma'am!"

You nod, putting a stray lock of hair behind your ear. Now that you think about it, Levi prefers having the twins inside his study ever since they can babble, letting them chatter in the background while he diligently reads his paperwork for the week. It's a habit now acknowledged in your household. Plus, he admitted that having them with him calms him down enough to not rely on his strong black tea for the rest of the day. Pushing aside the question regarding the twins, you turn back to the red-faced kids of the Survey Corps. A little small talk won't hurt, right? These are your children's friends, you might as well get to know them. "How are you finding the Survey Corps so far?"

This time, Eren takes the initiative to carry the conversation, his vibrant viridian irises focusing on you. His confidence falters when you smile at him, the rapid beating of his heart clogging his throat. You recognize the boy from the previous trial in the Inner Walls. This is the shifter who suffered from Levi's kicks of fury. You scolded him soon after for doing the extreme, humiliating a fifteen-year-old in front of a crowd. Your husband sought out your forgiveness at that time with many kisses and sweet nothings.

"U-Uhm, w-we're doing fine, Ma'am! The veterans are honing our skills for the expedition. We're thankful for them, Ma'am."

You chuckle a song-like laugh that has the cadets entranced. "I trust they're treating you fine? Especially you, young man." You slightly lower your head in a bow. "I apologize for Captain Levi's spectacle in the trial." You see a black-haired girl who looks similar to your eldest shift demeanors. At first, she's staring at you with bright light blue hues, the next, she's curling her lips. She's now clenching her fists at the mention of your husband. How interesting. "It seems he touched a nerve. He was merely following a script. For that, please accept my apology and I hope you understand the reasoning behind his actions."

Eren frantically fumbles for his words. They're a mess of broken sentences that you laugh at his behavior.

Meanwhile, with the other cadets, they're too busy gawking at you in awe and admiration. All of them wonder who are you here for? Who are you visiting in the Survey Corps, a place where people with death flags gather to be weirdos? You look like someone who experiences the lavishness brought by the Inner Walls, a fact that somewhat doesn't sit right with you and makes sense at the same time given how you answer some questions with rare phrases. You continue conversing with the cadets who engaged in conversations with you, not hearing the exchange of some kids.

"What the fuck?" Ymir murmurs under her breath, her cheeks hot as she gapes at you. "That is one beautiful woman right there."

"I think I'm in love," Reiner mindlessly rambles.

Bertholdt gives him a funny look.

The ever-sweet Christa sighs in wonder, her hands carefully pressed against her chest. "She looks like the princesses I read back when I was a kid. Her partner must feel so lucky!"

"Do you think she has some food inside the basket?" Sasha giddily asks, her eyes going back and forth between your face and the basket in the crook of your elbow. The brown-haired girl just knows when someone is carrying a scrumptious meal with their person and the smell of something sweet and savory wafts from your basket. "If I ask her politely, she'll say yes, right? She looks kind enough to share her food!"

"Mom?"

"Mum!"

Two blurs of black hair speed through the entrance of the castle and onto your figure.

You exclaim a yelp of shock before laughing at your sons hugging you like they would when they were little. Well, they're still your little dreamer and adventurer but from how tight they're hugging you, you can tell that they've grown since joining the Training Corps. Your vision mists as you wrap your arms around the two boys. "Oh, little prince, starlight!" You lean back, placing gentle palms on each of their cheeks to fully see them. "Have you two been eating well? Don't overwork yourselves, alright? If I hear so much from Oluo as you two not taking rests regularly, I'm riding here until I can tuck you two in bed." You playfully glare at them.

Altair rolls his eyes yet the smile on his face says that he relishes in your fretting. "We're eating well here, Mom. We're also sleeping at exactly 10 pm so that we're not late for morning training. The one you should be telling those is Dad."

"Now that I remember it, he didn't eat lunch earlier," Caelum muses from beside his brother. "All he ingested were cups of tea. He even made us do errands around the castle to leave him be in his office. The last thing I saw him do was curse out the report he was trying to finish."

"Of course," you sigh. Remembering the basket on your elbow, you lift it with a grin. "Good thing I packed meals here. It's quite strange that he kicked you two out of his office. He lets you do whatever you want in his office when you were little. What changed?"

"I think it's because Altair argued with me about the superior fruit. I still think it's mangoes, though."

"You started it! And apples are better than mangoes any time of the day!"

"I'd accept your sentiments if you said watermelon but," Caelum sighs, "you made me disagree with how assertive you sounded earlier."

"You once ate apple pie like you were about to lose a race!"

"That was different. It was pie. Of course, I'm going to eat it like I'm starving. It's Mum's apple pie, too."

"Boys."

They look down and simultaneously answer, "Sorry."

You cross your arms, narrowing your eyes at your two sons. "I could only imagine what Levi experienced with you two inside his office. How many times do I have to tell you to never argue about your preferences? All of us have different tastes in things. Now, we have to deal with a stressed captain."

The remaining cadets stare at you three with slacked jaws. They can't believe it. You're their mother? The goddess inside the walls that broke the hearts of many after marrying the love of your life and partner? Now that explains Caelum's eyelashes and eye shape. The more they stared at the twins flocking around you; the more they notice that aside from Caelum's features, you seem to pass down your bright countenance to Altair. They see the love you have for the twins radiate in rays, making them miss their own parents. They watch as Caelum takes the basket from you while Altair links his arm with yours. The events from this week are relayed to you akin to a river's flow --- never stopping yet rejuvenating. You lovingly stare at your sons while they animatedly recall flying through the forest and cutting up faux Titan napes. The other cadets take this as a bittersweet moment for them but it is a scene where the twins smile their widest, something they never did with them.

It's Reiner who ruins the comfortable atmosphere. "Damn, Mrs. Ackerman is a mother I like to f---"

A firm hand grips his shoulder alongside a most murderous tone known to mankind. "I dare you to finish that sentence, cadet."

Reiner signs his death certificate that very day.

[nyxi-pixie]

double byler are so funny (this is actually not funny at all they make me sad) bc both pairs have relationships in which theyre very dependent on each other for emotional comfort so when theyre apart their relationships suffer pretty badly

both jancy and byler have been shown to have a bond based at least partially on shared trauma. w jancy murray even goes as far as to say its like the main reason they shld get together which. hmm. but yk more to my point. and byler constantly have heart to hearts because theyre each others emotional rock and this probably goes back further than UD shit bc wills been TraumaMan for his whole life (and feels mike is the only one who he can be emotionally vulnerable with without being babied or treated like hes weak-s2 kinda suggests mikes been there for him in Will Byers Trauma Times TM before). thanks lonnie😒😒

its v obvious w mike and jonathan actually bc neither of them seem to talk to anyone else about their issues. like will leaves and mike immediately devolves into isolating himself and straight up depression because clearly theres some family issues which prevent him from opening up abt his feelings (he hugs karen like 3 times in the whole show but he Never talks to her abt shit. despite her attempts to get him to open up that one time w her queer coded as fuck lil speech. anyway repressed lil emo mike only ever opens up with will. so no will=no talking abt emotions=unhealthy michael.)

and jonathan turns to weed (and argyle omg theyre bfs so true) because he wont turn to his family for support bc hes unhealthily selfless and doesnt want to burden them with his issues (likely due to the parentification. oh boy someone help him) but he and nancy understand each other bc theyve been through the same shit (which also means they dont feel like they burden each other bc like. u cant burden someone if theyre already sharing the weight yk?) but seperation=losing that support so their relationship, which relies so heavily on that mutual understanding, suffers.

nancy and will are doing a little better individually. because guess what: they have HOBBIES.(jon also does but he seems to have abandoned it. rip his i wanna take a pic era. and mike has d&d but in the between time between oh no wills gone and oh yay eddie my beloved, hes doing shit. and even w d&d his grades are still affected by his mental place and his rooms super messy so like. doing better but still not great.)

we see that wills super into art (which is known to be therapeutic so double woo points) again after doing it less in s3. and he seems to be specifically using it to deal w his sad gay feelings (channelling shit like the introspective king he is 🤩). also hes got people other than mike to offer emotional support. even with jonathan not available, he can still talk to joyce (st character with positive relationship w a parent❗holy shit how rare❗❗). also its will. if hes in his feels hes just gonna vibe with it. 'oh misery my best friend lets hang out for a bit 😍😍' (prolly bc jonathan put his whole jonussy into making sure will was okay w having emotions. as a part of his mission to spite lonnie. SLAY KING) compared to the wheelers who are like 'um what the fuck is an emotion ive never felt one i swear. wdym u saw me crying yesterday🤨?? no u literally didnt that was my evil twin😒.'

anyway that brings me to nancy. who. yk shes doing Okay. the second anyone brings up jon shes about to commit crimes against them so yk not totally good but coping. bc she kinda just full body throws herself at that school newspaper stuff so she has a distraction and its working okay. until her new friend-w-glasses-destined-to-die- horrifically, dies horrifically.

but then she has emotional support through surrounding herself w people who Get It. (woooo robins around and nancy feels comfortable for once!!!!) i mean shes also almost reverting to steve bc nancys trauma response is just 'i can only ever be emotionally vulnerable with romantic partners bc i havent had a friend since s1 and my family dont know shit abt the monster dimension (plus ted is actually just a cardboard cutout with a robotic voice box that blurts out 1 of 10 phrases on a timer). apart from mike. but idk hes busy crying over his bf and we can never open up to each other in a genuine way bc repression is the Wheeler Way To Slay' but yk shes at least partially coping.

but their relationships basically get totally fucked bc oh no if we cant have heart to hearts in physical proximity we are going to Die. also communication without magical telepathy through eye contact??? whos she??? (esp w byler. u cant have effective coded conversations over the phone. and theyve got all their other reasons for not talking: will doesnt wanna reach out first and have mike brush him off bc oh dear the 3x03 fight really fucked with him didnt it. and mikes desperately trying to call but for fuck sake how is their phone always busy. and he wont use letters bc idk hes too gay for that he keeps signing them w 'love mike. ps im in love w u in case u didnt get that😍😍😍')

and jancy. oof. jons like 'i have to appease literally everyone in my life apart from myself and i cant do that bc yay nancy means boo family and yay family means boo nancy so now i think i will have a crisis bc if im honest with her she will Hate me. yes i am so rational' and nancys like 'wtf is going on does he hate me or smthn. i am also totally rational' and they wont talk abt it bc theyre scared of pissing each other off. (and have no example of healthy relationships to follow)

basically. double byler are codependent in a way that isnt Necessarily unhealthy - in fact when around each other, they seem to do better Because of that reliance on each other. it allows them to be emotionally vulnerable in a way that they cant be w anyone else (even will who has like the most supportive family ever <3 still feels most comfortable being open w mike as evidenced by his talk w jon in s2).

BUT. seperation fucks over their relationships and their individual mental health. and thats where the unhealthy aspect comes in. bc over reliance on one person is gonna Fuck Shit Up. (it wouldnt be so bad if they still communicated regularly thru letters and phone calls but yk self hatred is a bitch and theyre all very insecure.)
