Lifeline - 3

Lifeline (n): a thing on which someone or something depends or which provides a means of escape from a difficult situation.

Pairing: Bucky Barnes x Female Reader

Word Count: 1117

Warnings: Angst

A/n: uhhhhh here ya go

6:55 pm

Bucky was nervous. It was the new look paired with the fact that he had been trying to figure out what he should order before Y/n got there but the menu was incredibly vague and the fact that he’d been harboring a crush on her for years unsure of how to approach it and now he was about to be on a date with her.

His phone kept going off and he knew that they were from Sam and looking at the texts from Sam would only give him more anxiety so he would ignore them for now.

“Is there anything I can get you? Some wine? Some appetizers?” The server whose name tag read Ben.

“Just some water, for now, thank you,” Bucky almost left it at that but felt the need to add, “I’m still waiting for someone.”

Ben smiled and returned a few moments later with Bucky’s water.

7:15 pm

Bucky bounced his knee at an inhuman rate. He was about to text Sam when he got a text from Y/n.

Y/n: I’m on my way I promise. This subway is holding a few stops away for some reason or another.

That put his mind at rest and he continued to sip on his water that Ben kept refilling.

7:45 pm

Ben was standing there once again asking Bucky if he wanted or needed anything. Bucky’d gone through an entire bottle of wine since the last text he’d gotten from Y/n, and Ben looked at little afraid that Bucky was drunk.

God did Bucky wish he could get drunk.

“How long is long enough to wait for a date before it becomes pathetic?” Bucky asked Ben who furrowed his brows.

“I’d say 30 minutes if they haven’t texted or if they have 30 minutes since their last text, after that you can leave with no guilt,” Ben decided.

“Great,” Bucky slapped down a few bills on the table, enough for the wine and hefty tip, it wasn’t the poor boy's fault he was having a bad night. “Thank you for your kindness tonight.”

And with that Bucky left the restaurant.

9 pm

Bucky walked to the front of the compound and heard laughter, the lights were still on and he really didn’t want to face anyone. Not tonight.

So he walked around to where the window to his room was and managed to sneak into his room, after a very intense conversation with FRIDAY about keeping it quiet.

2 am

Bucky was woken up from his slumber with an excessive grumble of his stomach.

“That was unnecessary,” he told it and walked down to the kitchen.

He opened and closed the different cupboards about five times before he finally landed on making himself an ice cream sundae.

He grabbed the ice cream and topping then found the biggest bowl in the joint and made the biggest bowl of ice cream he was sure he could manage to eat by himself.

He snuck back to his room and started eating it.

Bucky turned on the TV in his room and began watching some TV show he’d heard Y/n mention a few times before he quickly changed what he was watching not wanting to be reminded of her.

Not the way her eyes light up when she smiled or how when she laughed too hard tears would start to roll down her cheeks and -

Bucky shook the thoughts of her from his head and tried to focus on the Disney movie Sam had told him was ‘important to his modern-day education’ but the relentless thoughts of her kept coming back.

When he finally finished his ice cream he plopped himself on his bed and forced himself to sleep.

8 am

Bucky was in the gym because no matter how late he stayed up when the sun came up he woke up. It was actually quite annoying, he would like to sleep in every once in a while.

Bucky had the music blasting through the speakers in the gym sure that no one would come in. But if there’s one person in the whole universe that is going to find him when he didn’t want to be found, it was Sam fucking Wilson.

“Ya know,” Sam held on to the punching bag that Bucky looked like he was going to punch in half, “I for sure thought that you would be too worn out from the copious amounts of sex that you had with Y/n last night.”

Sam had a shit-eating grin on his face that slowly dissipated when he saw Bucky’s glare.

“What happened?” Sam’s entire demeanor changed from teasing to a concerned friend.

“She stood me up,” Bucky said not letting up on the punches.

“What?” Sam scoffed sardonically.

“She texted saying she was going to be a few minutes late and then half an hour later nothing, so I left and came home.”

“And you’re absolutely sure she stood you up?” Sam asked incredulously.

“Sam -” Bucky finally stopped punching and walked over to the bench that held his water bottle.

“No, Buck, listen, I know Y/n and she wouldn’t stand someone up, she’d feel too bad, let alone someone who she asked out.”

“Well, she did.” Bucky tipped back the bottle watching Sam as he hit his head against the punching bag a couple times.

“Ok,” Sam took a deep breath, “Then why don’t we go talk to her about it because I find it hard to believe that she would do such a thing without a good reason. Maybe she got bad news at the doctor or something.”

Sam raised his brow at Bucky who was mulling over what he’d just said. Bucky had forgotten about the appointment Y/n had before the date and her freaking out about bad news she got made sense but then why would she have said that she was on her way?

“I guess that makes sense.”

Sam gave him a small smile pleased with the progress of the conversation and ushered him up to Y/n’s room. Bucky was lucky Sam was there because he would’ve bailed before even getting to the elevator.

Sam knocked at Y/n’s door. After a moment of absolute silence from the room, Sam tried again. Once again, nothing.

“FRIDAY, where’s Y/n?” Sam asked the AI.

“She’s not in her room,” the Irish voice spoke, “In fact, my records show that she hasn’t been home since yesterday afternoon.”

A rush of guilt and rage-filled Bucky. He shared a look with Sam.

“Then where the fuck is she?” Sam asked but Bucky didn’t have an answer for him.

A lot of yall needa take care of yourself and here's how:

Eat. Eat snacks. Eat anything. You will not have energy and you will be in a bad mood. You might trigger a depressive episode just because you didn't eat. Go and do it. Please. Small sugar heavy or carb heavy things might seem unhealthy before you, but they are high source in energy. You don't have to worry about eating healthy, you need to focus on eating regularly first. 2 or 3 meals a day, 2,000-4,000 calories a day.

If you've got that down, then you can eat healthy. Food pyramid stuff. Protein, carbs, greens, yadda yadda. You don't have to be excessive on the healthy stuff. Just try to eat a little of each every day.

Physical activity???? Not necessary. Might make you feel better about yourself. Getting up and walking around helps a lot, too. Even if you don't go outside, just leave your room and stay somewhere more open in the house, where you're not so closed off. You don't have to be around other people if you can avoid it. Going outside during daytime and walking???? Also amazing. (Pokémon GO is a great motivator for this, don't give me that look)

Hygiene. It sucks. I hate it. But we need it. If you don't manage this, it can have really costly effects later. Especially for those of you in America. Hospital/dental/ any other doctor bills are expensive. If you don't feel like fully brushing your teeth, clean it off with a napkin a bit. You'll get to teeth-brushing one day, but just try to keep it more manageable for now. Future you will be grateful. Shower. Sometimes. Y'know?? Dirt builds up even if you don't do anything. Change your clothes if you can. Not necessarily every day, but every other day. It might make you feel good about yourself.

If you can set aside a couple hours to clean your room, i suggest doing so. But if you don't, that's okay. Some people clean in small bursts of energy. I personally need a lot of time because once i start i can't stop. Putting away an item or two the moment you step in your room will be a small step, but it will be beneficial in the long run. Start by putting away big things, then maybe tidying up smaller things. Progress is more noticeable this way.

Sleep. I know a lot of people don't like doing this, but not sleeping can have similar affects to not eating. Eating and sleeping are how you get energy. Sleeping lets you function. You might even, dare i say, enjoy it. Aim for at least 6 hours if you're current average is below that. School/work can make this hard. 8-10 is much healthier, but also, kinda impossible. You might get there sometimes, so pat yourself on the back if you do. I'm not sure if taking naps help you, but if you're really physically exhausted during the day, its probably gonna make you feel better. Just don't nap for so long that you miss out on important things.

Water!!!! I always forget this one. You get headaches without water!!! You feel icky without water!!! Speaking or even breathing messes up water!!!! I am always extremely dehydrated because i don't like drinking water. You need electrolytes. Gatorade and sports drinks help too. Uhhhhh just drink it!!! Im bad at this one i know many side affects of not doing it so please just do it i feel miserable!!! Try to find a way to make water tolerable. Some people put fruit or something. Crunching on ice doesn't hydrate you (I know bc i do that). Also your skin will get dry and crackly so water (and maybe even using lotion but that's also a big ask) will make it softer. You need like 6-8 cups a day???? Is that a thing???? Look it up i know its important but i just dont know much about it.

Take time for yourself. Do it. Do little things that you like. Draw. Play that video game. Sing to your music. Do whatever else calms you down/brings you joy. It will make every day just a little better.

Get away from things that bother you (if you can). Block that mean person. Remove yourself from uncomfortable situations. Stop hanging out with those people. Whatever you need. Don't force negativity into your life.

Love yourself. This is probably really hard, but hear me out. It is the most important one. Take baby steps on it. You will fall back sometimes, but you will also improve. If you want to change something about yourself, think "is it really a flaw or am i just thinking too hard about it?". You can change parts of your personality if you want, but don't try to become a different person. If you have a "flaw" that isn't hurting anyone, it isn't a flaw. You should look back on it and think "this thing helps make me who i am and it is wonderful". Love your physical self love your inner self. Improve on both, but try to find some things you're satisfied/happy with.

Tl;dr: eat, sleep, drink water, love yourself, and just be nice to yourself in general, yeah?

#feel free to add on #i shouldnt have to say this but dont self harm

Answer all the things

D&D Ask Meme

ah fuck. i can’t believe you’ve done this.everything’s going under a read more b/c it’s gonna be long as all fuck

2. Your favorite character that someone else has played.ollie……….. little shit idiot i love him? he and james are both anarchist dumbass but in different ways. brothers in arms.

3. Your favorite side quest.oh christ. there’s no real particular side quests but my fave side plot in general is what i’ll summarise as “alora is a rat bastard.”

alora met a hot rich socialite guy who seemed really into her and she decided she was gonna play the long con on him b/c he might be useful

she and james both agreed to side w/ king clockwork, but when the king actually mentioned it alora gave james a Look™ and he was mad as fuck. he’s still kinda mad as fuck

she decided to be pals w/ a main antagonist (gluto) and didn’t tell us until days after it happened that he’d talked to her in his dreams

alora was told to not tell anyone abt the repugnant’s secret organisation. she immediately spilled the info to everyone

she was told to not mention the organisation’s meeting or anything that went on there. she immediately spilled the info to the motley and literally sent us a photo of the repugnant on his throne speaking to everyone

she was told to keep a specific person away from castle repugnant. she let him waltz right up to the castle w/ everyone else and seemed confused when they said he couldn’t go in

she broke into somewhere w/ gluto and then left him in a room full of very important documents b/c she somehow didn’t think taking him there to begin w/ wouldn’t backfire

the last thing james said to her was literally “i take it back, you’re a stupid shit idiot and i hate you”

4. Your current campaign.random sideplots get to go here this time! most of them are james or ollie b/c we interact the most w/ npcs

james and galant romance sideplot and the sheer amount of wild scenes that have happened as a result (the date, le fway showing up, addy’s dating advice, “ollie, you’re pretty ignorant”, “so you killed your boyfriend”)

ash coaches a baseball team

ollie tries to handle pink drugs, fails to provide any evidence that he’s not the cause

alora helps the repugnant, always immediately regrets it b/c he’s a little bastard man

the gang trying to figure out what’s going on w/ the repugnant’s amnesia

james accidentally making friends w/ a black spiral dancer and being heavily in denial abt why cylus probably got so attached to begin w/ (hint: it’s the anarchy and the horrid rebellious streak)

james nearly sides w/ the main antagonist b/c he’s got the right idea but his methods are fucked

ollie goes to fairy prison, makes friends w/ a vampire and some old sidhe, is currently in the middle of trying to break out

5. Favorite NPC.unfortunately it might be cylus? cylus is like 6 levels of batshit at any given moment and was introduced to us as a nameless dangerous prisoner that galant was holding for some sort of treaty? and james and addy were told to not listen to him for any reason and to not let him free. and of course james let him free. he shifted into a giant 9ft-ish tall war form and then james realised he was really in over his head. upside: he went back in his cell afterwards. downside: he got attached to james. also downside: james didn’t actually get warned that he was a dangerous war criminal until after all this went downthen cylus literally showed up in james’ dream to tell him a few things and warn him that he was planning to escape? and there was nothing james could do b/c “i heard it in a dream” isn’t exactly a solid claim esp when he doesn’t have any sort of future sight. and of course cylus broke outthen james ran into him in the dreaming and james was losing his mind the entire time b/c cylus is an absolute freak and james was stuck walking w/ him for like 2 hours. then like an hour after they parted ways james got flung into a ditch on the edge of town (in the real world) and cylus carried an unconscious james like a sack of potatoes into waffle house and just let him sleep on the table for a bit. then like 3 days later cylus broke into his apartment and made him breakfast.and then james got flung out into the middle of nowhere again for reasons and cylus was there and james had the choice of dealing w/ cylus or being horribly lost in the woods so he chose the first one. and he nearly got caught in the middle of a big werewolf fight that cylus orchestrated. and also nearly got caught in some extremely violent family drama.throughout all of this cylus is acting like he’s james’ best friend and last time they spoke cylus really wanted to do buddy cop stuff! they’re pals! totally! and james wants absolutely none of it but he can’t explode on him b/c he’s a skinny little twink and cylus could snap him like a twig w/ no effort

to summarise:

6. Favorite death (monster, player character, NPC, etc).we actually haven’t had many deaths! the only ones i can think of in game that aren’t random monsters were the old bastard and nor nan, which. were both interesting in their own ways, but nor nan’s was mostly tragic and i don’t wanna get feelsy so i’ll just use the old bastard here.to set the scene: we’re at a fancy party. ash and marike (an npc, he’s an unseelie lord and overall a hell of a time) are off on their own trying to catch chimerical creatures that stole their weapons. marike curbstomps one, meanwhile the other has climbed up onto a curtain rod. the place has really high ceilings. his solution? pick up ash and toss him at the creature. ollie and the old bastard (who owns the house) walk in just as this is happening, and the old bastard sees ash tear down the curtain rod for no damn reason. of course he demands answers. ash tries to bullshit a story abt an entire family of raccoons they were trying to chase outthen the old bastard gets shot in the head. ollie and marike are splattered w/ blood. he hits the ground, ash makes a joke abt “telling his wife the bad news”then he notices his wife is the one who just shot him

7. Your favorite downtime activity.the entire arc’s taken place over the course of 15 days in-game, including downtime. we haven’t had any specific downtime activities per say, but the best moment we’ve had during downtime was when ollie broke into james’ apartment and now he refuses to let ollie anywhere near his apartment complex

8. Your favorite fight/encounter.i’ll stick to generally hostile meetings for this since we’ve only a small handful of solid fights? but it’s either “james nearly dies” or “ollie is a good distraction”

to set the scene for the first one: the hospital chimerically burnt down, so the motley decided to investigate and sneaked in as janitors. james ended up alone down in the morgue after finding a body covered in chimerical burns getting wheeled down there. he checks it out, takes a couple photos on his phone. then the door opens.james starts cleaning and stuff, but it turns out the person who came in (gluto!) was also a changeling and very easily noticed the fact that he’s got really noticeable pointy ears in his fae mien. and of course he starts threatening james. and after he pulls out a massive scythe. james sends everyone an sos but they all get stuck in the elevator. so james pulls a gun in a fucking hospital. and he gets called on the bluff but before he can put it away, in bursts galantgalant starts kicking a bit of ass, and then gluto ripped the (already weak from the fire) chimerical ceiling down on top of them! galant did some shit to lift the rubble off them with little to no effort and james was kinda like “oh no he’s hot” for a second before galant kicked a bit more ass and gluto ran like hell!then he next night galant literally died for james (it’s okay, he got better) and confessed that james is his true love and just. man.

for the second one: there’s 3 assassins after galant. he fucked off to lovescreek in order to avoid them, but when ollie found him, one of the assassins had found him! so ollie joins the fray against this troll (who are like 8′ at the shortest), and after a short bit gluto joined in as well to distract ollie from the main fight! so what did ollie do? start loudly singing “i’ve got a lovely bunch of coconuts” for a chicanery bunk to turn galant invisible. and of course both assassins turned on him and he ended up having to run like hell but when he lost them galant reappeared and was like “well that was fun”

9. Your favorite thing about D&D tabletop RPGs.i’ll keep it real, i’ve disliked every dnd system i’ve experimented w/ and i’m not a fan of most fantasy so it’s unlikely i’ll every actually play a proper dnd game but god… tabletop stuff is just so much fun? mostly the story and the fact that joe is absolutely godly

10. Your favorite enemy and the enemy you hate the most.cylus may be my fav npc but my fav antagonist is definitely king clockwork? ic my very first encounter with him led into him and james talking about their beliefs and ideals for like 2 hours straight and when he was getting ready to leave james was ecstatic that he’d finally met someone who fully understood his mindset. then the bomb dropped that he was the boss of the other antagonists and james was hit w/ this utter horror. and then james considered siding w/ him for a long ass time before eventually trying to kill him to put a stop to everything. yeah. yeahmy fav enemy/antagonist is absolutely gluto b/c he’s creepy as shit. during anyone’s first encounter w/ him i was completely solo and it was horribly unsettling and i simultaneously love and despise him

11. How often do you play and how often would you ideally like to play?we meet once a week! what game we run varies but recently it’s been changeling every week since we’re still waiting on player characters to start hunter the reckoning lmao

12. Your in game inside jokes/memes/catchphrases and where they came from.we have a bunch of them but uhhhhh random ones off the top of my head

“it’s always sunny in coolville” b/c i realised early on that we were going to be up to a lot of dumb shenanigans and it was easy to make it’s always sunny title cards based on each session

#saveduke b/c there was a whole thing at one point where we had to keep him from getting kidnapped. spun off from that are #SaveDukeFromHimself, #SaveGalantFromJamesStupidity and #SaveDukeAgain?

“appearance 4, captivating” b/c dom said it regularly for multiple sessions until his character dirty danced with a hot guy at a party, after which he decided that alora was a lesbian

“does [insert art] let me throw fireballs?” b/c dom wanting to throw fireballs down the street is a running joke but also he unironically asked if primal 2 would let him throw fireballs

“james got norted” b/c he nearly joined the main antagonist, which devolved into “[insert random character] got norted” at the most random times

james and galant touching tips b/c at one point while they were casually talking ollie just started going 👉👈 in the background and james got really mad and flustered abt it so everyone started doing it

“ultra instinct ash” b/c he’s our shaggy and also has done like fuck all nothing productive in game so him going fucking super saiyan to kill the final boss is hilarious

“i got two hands!” b/c people regularly ask why ollie dual wields broadwords

#OllieOllieOxenFREE b/c ollie got himself sent to fairy jail

“i did [stupid thing], can i buy [half related skill]?” like “i attempted murder, can i get chronos 2?” or “i was an assassin in a past life, can i get melee 3?”

“people, let me tell you bout my best friend!” abt james and cylus b/c boy does james have bad taste in friends

14. Introduce any other parties you have played in or DM-ed.uhhh exalted is the only one i’ve been a part of that’s been solidly active, but we’ve got characters for scion for when 2e drops, and i’ve got characters set up for chaos reigns when joe starts the next arc b/c i didn’t wanna peter parker myself into the finale. i don’t remember the rest of the scion crew well enough but i love them

15. Do you have snacks during game times?we almost always grab food on the way there and eat before we properly start

16. Do you play online or in person? Which do you prefer?in person! it’s the only way i’ve ever done it but i’m 🙏 that maricopa gets running online b/c……….. vampire good………..

17. What are some house rules that your group has?the big house rule for changeling is “ run things fast and loose.” joe knows the characters well and what’s on their sheets so we don’t do too much dice rolling except for arts. joe also takes some artistic liberties w/ some things, mainly wayfare and the inanimae, b/c his main goal is to make a good story and he’s sure as fuck succeeding

18. Does your party keep any pets?do addy and duke count? they’re a white rabbit and a beagle. beyond that, addy’s got pet rabbits, and ollie might be feeding a stray cat

19. Do you or your party have any dice superstitions?not really. dom claims that dice rollers hate him but he also keeps using his dice roller rather than pulling out physical dice

20. How did you get into D&D? How long have you been playing?i got into tabletop years ago when harley introduced me to the dystopia rising larp and i decided to check out the tabletop version for more lore. the current tabletop system sucks but onyx path is handling 2e and i’m so hyped for it. at some point a bit later i played vampire the masquerade bloodlines, and it got me into the world of darkness and well. i still love it.as for how long i’ve been playing, uh. around a year i think? i forget when we started exalted the borderlands-ing. i’d been sitting in on the group for around a year before that, mostly getting a feel for things and also we were trying to figure out a good jumping in point for me and i wish i could’ve started earlier but it let me mesh w/ everyone a bit easier and also have an outsider’s viewpoint when it came to certain issues

21. Have you ever regretted something your character has done?oh absolutely, “i fucked up” is the semi-catchphrase for james for a reason. he theoretically has common sense b/c i usually say “this is gonna be stupid/bad” either ic or ooc before i do some shit and well. yeah it doesn’t usually go well but we have fun

23. Do you use premade modules or original campaigns?i think the only thing not original we’ve run since i moved up is strange aeons and maybe a coc scenario? everything else has been original campaigns

24. How much planning/preparation do you do for a game?not too much, really. i sometimes plan out a little of what i’m going to do, but half the time i never actually have the chance b/c stuff moves in a different direction than i was expecting. however i also write the summaries of the shit we’ve gotten up to every session so there’s that

25. What have your players done that you never could have planned for?i’m not a dm but i’m answering this for joe b/c he flat-out admitted that he couldn’t predict what was going to happen in at least half of changeling b/c we’re an unpredictable mess but everything’s come together to make a really interesting finale

30. Are your players diplomatic or murder hobos?answering this one too even tho it’s still a dm question b/c the players themselves are half diplomatic (me, mal, joe depending on game) and half murder hobos (fredy, dom). dom’s been going more diplomatic w/ alora but also she’s so bad at it and it’s wonderful

31. What is your favorite class? Favorite race?classes aren’t a thing in changeling but out of the kiths ouuuuuuuugh i love sidhe a lot. like they’re honestly cool as hell and i fucking love the house lore? i’ll also do houses b/c fuck it, my fav house is beaumayn b/c they have no chill and every bit of house lore they have is brutal as hell

32. What role do you like to play the most? (Tank/healer/etc?)just looking at my trends of characters i’ve got currently (re)built, i have:- the face (james, rex, val)- support (henri, caoimhe, river kinda?)- the antisocial son of a bitch (nomi, neil)- “i’m going to wreck anything you point me at” (hound, oliver, elliot but not by his own choice)- pure chaos (nora, glitch mage)gemma is kinda hard to put into any category b/c she’s babey?

33. How do you write your backstory, or do you even write a backstory?it depends on the character? some characters don’t have backstories (caoimhe, nora), some i’ve fleshed out heavily (james). it’s usually assembled from a bunch of random snippets written over the course of however long. some of it’s heavily thought out, other parts are just kinda arbitrary. i also tend to run some more important chunks past joe or mal just to see how they feel? james being from house gwydion was originally arbitrary and wasn’t really gonna matter (joe himself said it would just be a bit of flavour) then he figured out how to fold it into plot and i’m thriving b/c le fway is wild

34. Do you tend pick weapons/spells for being useful or for flavor?flavour, though use is also a bonus? artswise james currently has naming/chronos/contract, which are all useful in their own ways but also reflect his past lives / him as a person

35. How much roleplay do you like to do?yes. if i’m not able to embrace the character i’m playing is it really that fun? is it really? no b/c when that happens to this group we get the dumbed down version of chaos reigns and i go fucking batshit b/c of the fact that combat takes way too long

#anon #ask to tag #i love changeling so much and i will absolutely infodump abt it whenever i have the chance #that sweet hyperfocus mood

Good morning! 11/11/18

It’s a little after 8 AM (though it’ll probably be closer to 8:30 when I finish typing this), a couple of hours until my comic updates, and I’m really excited for the update to post. Figured I’d share some more thoughts from the current morning while waiting~

I accidentally gave myself another story idea that might make for a good comic which would mean a longer turn around time for making/sharing that, but in the meantime i started writing some comic scripts that are subject to change. It’s a really new project, like a few days old, so it’s up in the air if anything comes of it ever.

In terms of writing, still making progress on my gay robot series (Et Al), my superhero novel, and my alien fairy(?) series, with the added spin-off of the alien fairy series aka the “vampire hobo” series. I also have the uhhhhh self-indulgent “everyone has a crush on Alexabot” story, Mask Core Raid, that I share on patreon (chapter 3 coming out next month!) and the other patreon story, IC 100, about a giant robot kidnapping a bunch of humans to help rebuild his empire (chapter 4 in the works!)

I like to keep busy with projects and story ideas. I have so, so many, as well as a number I have planned but haven’t done work on yet or need to restart at some point. I’m just... I have a lot of stories in me and I want to get them out and share them, y’know? I don’t know if it’d be faster or slower to focus on one thing at a time, but I lose interest and get burned out more easily if i can’t jump from thing to thing, so maybe it’d actually be slower? But at the same time, I feel like I’m not getting it out fast enough, but that might be from impatience and a desire for people to see the finished work.

Additional thoughts before closing this post: Edward looks really cute and he’s growing taller and I love him. He lives in my bedroom near my desk so I see him all the time ♥ I ought to check on Pamela later, and Mira is doing well s’far as I can tell, so that’s good. I hope everyone has a good day today!

11 Questions

Rules: answer the 11 questions posed by the person who tagged you, then write 11 questions & tag 11 people to answer them.

OOF this took me a long time to finally do ahahaha

Hallooooo !! now I know this is very far from the kind of things i post on Tumblr but my friend @readmancy tagged me and I genuinely enjoy being tagged in stuff so here ya go !!

Questions for me !!

1. When are your most productive hours of the day?

Tbh I’m very inclined to say I have no productive hours of the day because I’m usually always procrastinating AHAHAHAHA but uhhh for weekdays I’d have to say 6-10 PM (or 4 AM when I occasionally have to cram something) and for weekends 11 AM-4 PM

2. What’s something about yourself that you really like and/or are really proud of?

Not gonna lie, I actually had to think about this question for a while. . .

I guess I’d have to say my emotions and my ability to convey them? Usually I really hate it when I get emotional, but I found that when I’m acting (which I find so much fun to do) being really emotional is an absolute must so that makes me kinda good at it !! Also occasionally my singing voice on really good days

3. What tips would you give to someone who has to stay up really late for school-related projects but doesn’t drink coffee?

I actually fall under this category since coffee does not work on me lmao

Here’s the stuff that I usually do (I hope some of them work out for other people out there !!)

Splash some really cold water on your face (sometimes I literally just dab ice on my face ahahaha)

(If you don’t get easily distracted) play some really loud music, TV show, or YouTube video in the background

Eat some chocolate or some other form of sugar

Take a five minute break to do some jumping jacks or do some really energetic dancing

Motivate yourself using fandoms !! (Ex. “If I finish my math hw right now, I bet Pidge would be really proud of me.” • “If Hamilton could write the other 51, I can write the last three pages of this research paper !!”)

Drink lots of water

Take 10-15 minute naps after completing a certain amount of work (BUT MAKE SURE TO GET BACK UP AGAIN)

4. What do you listen to when you study?

I listen to this playlist I made that consists of instrumental songs/piano covers (so I don’t get too distracted while studying ahaha). It contains songs from Waitress the Musical, Your Lie in April, Doki Doki Literature Club, Yuri On Ice, Angel Beats, Anohana, Undertale, Dodie Clark, and Liana Flores !!

5. What are you like when you have a serious crush on someone?

OOF I am a total mess omg

I can’t speak when I’m near them (or end up saying something really stupid in a futile attempt to impress them), I freak out over every little thing they say or do to me and spend up to weeks overthinking and over analyzing it, i daydream A LOT, I write about them A LOT A LOT, I plan to low key give them things or do something to express my attraction towards them but in a super subtle way but I usually just end up chickening out, I talk about them to all my friends (and apparently if I really like them enough I start blushing like crazy)

So uuhhhh yea,,,,

6. What’s the nicest thing someone has ever done to you?

So many people have done so many nice things to me that I really wouldn’t be able to determine the nicest thing ever.

But the one that immediately came to mind when I read this question was this one time my best friend helped me out when my house almost burned down on my birthday. I was a complete mess and I couldn’t stop crying because my house might burn down and on my special day no less. My best friend’s mom came over to me and asked if I wanted to stay over at their house first (since we were neighbors back then). At their house, they ordered pizza in honor of my birthday and we watched movies and played and joked around a lot. My best friend and her whole family made me feel so much better and they genuinely made me forget about all the stress I was feeling at that time :))

(Also if anyone’s curious, my house didn’t actually get burned down BUT it was very close to)

7. Why did you join Tumblr and is it still the same reason you’re still here?

Well,,, I joined Tumblr because I wanted to find a place where I could find people who had the same interests and fandoms as me !! I also really wanted to see some really cool fan art and read some amazing head canons and fanfics. Oh and a lot of my friends had Tumblr and I was just really curious about what all the hype was about.

It’s still the same reason, although my blog has become ahmm way more Voltron & Plance-centric that I intended it to be AHAHAHAHAHA

8. What’s your favorite soda?

Hmm I’d have to say either Coke or Royal

9. What makes you weird?

Uhhhhh,,, I used to think I was a really weird person but then I interacted with people on the internet and I realized what I thought was weird about me wasn’t actually that weird or that some people were way way way weirder (and I generally mean weird in a really nice way !!) so um idk if any of these things are really that weird:

I am allergic to dogs but I own one and I will absolutely pet yours and hang out with them even if that means that my allergies will attempt to kill me later on

No matter what is happening, I will leave a room if someone mentions “mangoes” or “Havana” starts playing

No matter the context, I will start laughing so loud if anyone says “watermelon” or says “You’re cute, but you’re not my type”

When I find something really really really funny, I start crying

I talk to myself A LOT and I’m pretty sure people question my sanity because of that

I feel really bad about calling anything “it” *cough* because of DBH *cough* also I apologize to inanimate objects profusely when I hit into them

I get really triggered by colors ((I blame Voltron for this one))

10. Where do you like staying that’s all yours?

I guess I’d have to say my room. I don’t really have any other place that’s completely mine. It’s cozy and is one of the only places where I can genuinely be alone in my house.

11. How many things do you know how to ride?

Um,, cars, trains, and jeepneys so three things (yesh, Idk how to ride a bike,,, embarrassing, I know)

Questions for you !!

1. What’s your favorite book quote ?

2. Stargazing or cloud gazing ?

3. Sunrise or sunset ?

4. What’s an object that reminds you of home ?

5. What’s your opinion on handwritten notes ?

6. Who are the people that inspire you the most ?

7. What‘s the funniest/most creative ship name you’ve ever heard ?

8. Song that you will always dance/sing along to, no matter what ?

9. Hobby that you’ve never tried, but really really want to?

10. Would you rather swim in the ocean or in a freshwater river/lake ?

11. If you could live in one fictional universe, which one would you pick ?

Tag, you’re it

((Oof i don’t know enough people to tag 11 people ahahahaha))

Do you have any pets?-I used to have betta fish but they died from being ancient. 8. Where are you from?-Puerto Rico 9. How tall are you?-5ft. 4in. or 162.5 cm 10. What shoe size are you?-I think a men’s 9.5 last time I checked, so that’s like an 11 in women’s. I just wear it if it fits tbh 11. How many pairs of shoes do you own?-Uhhhhh about 8-9? 12. What was your last dream about?-Being trapped in an overrun high school filled with zombies alongside 3 other classmates. It was pretty neat 13. What talents do you have?-[REDACTED] 14.

Favorite movie?-Probably either Beetlejuice or the Matrix series 17. Who would be your ideal partner?-I dunno, tbh. I just want her to be honest, funny, and nice. That’s basically it. 18. Do you want children?-No, I don’t think so. I couldn’t handle a baby, but I can handle a toddler and older kids. But imo they just cost a lot to take care of and I’m not ready for that kind of responsibility. 19. Do you want a church wedding?-Uh, no. 20. Are you religious?-Not really? I guess I’d consider myself agnostic, even though my mom is pushing for me to get baptised (no thanks, I hate the water and being shoved under it, almost drowned the last time someone did that.) 21.

Baths or showers?-Both! 25. What color socks are you wearing?-Just plain white socks atm, my fun socks are in the dryer rn. 26. Have you ever been famous?-In several of my schools, yeah.

How many pillows do you sleep with?-3 or 4 31. What position do you usually sleep in?-Depends on the temperature. If I’m hot I just splay myself all over my bedding. If I’m freezing I curl up in a ball in my blankets. 32. How big is your house?-Like 1600 square feet, to be technical.

Have you ever fired a gun?-Yes! 35. Have you ever tried archery?-Yeah! I learned from a Native American! 36. Favorite clean word?-Origin. It’s just got a creepy ring to it, no matter how you use it. 37. Favorite swear word?-FUCK 38. What’s the longest you’ve ever gone without sleep?-I set a personal record of 5 days last week. It ended with me being unconscious for like 6 hours. 39. Do you have any scars?-Yes, though mostly mental scars. The two notable physical scars are a slash on my leg from when I slipped on some black ice in the middle of the road while getting to my bus stop. When I got home that day I had to play doctor on myself and dig out some asphalt that got lodged in there. It was BAD. The other scar disappeared, and was caused by a blowtorch to the finger. The heat-res glove I was using in Jewelry class at the time was really old (but I didn’t know that) and I burned a hole through it while soldering a ring I made closed. IT HURT SO BAD AND I SCREAMED BLOODY MURDER WHEN IT HAPPENED. It thankfully only burned the surface flesh, and 2 years later my finger looks normal again. 40. Have you ever had a secret admirer?-Once. 41. Are you a good liar?-When I need to be. 42. Are you a good judge of character?-Yeah, I can read people like a book easily. 43. Can you do any other accents other than your own?-Yeah! You name it, I can probably do it! 44. Do you have a strong accent?-Sorta kinda, it’s a mix between a Connecticut native and a New Yorker some days, but other days I don’t have one. 45. What is your favorite accent?-I don’t really have a favorite, I like every accent! 46. What is your personality type?-That thingy with the 4 letters? I think the last time I took one of those quizzes I got ENTJ or INTJ or something like that. 47. What is your most expensive piece of clothing?-Other than the suit that I outgrew that cost $200, I have this cloak thing my friend bought me for like $40-$60 I think. 48.
