FINALLY SHOWING OFF MY COLLECTION !!! i finally reorganized a little bit buuut it still feels incomplete... anyway!! it's a mix of one piece and pokemon... ft other things but mostly one piece

FIRST SHELF:

again, mostly pokemon and one piece. i've been collecting pokemon plushies/merch in general since 2018. and to be completely honest with you, i feel like my life didnt start until 2018. i have no recollection of anything at least irl before 2018... i have a bunch of pokemon plushies still that arent even on here or theyre just hiding from sight! (like behind gladion is a steven stone plushie nfmshd) OH AND I HAD MY GLADION AND MIKO PLUSHIE MADE !! i just drew it and then gave the designs to a manufacturer :3 my next goal is to make another two but with their alt outfits this time :D

also on the top shelf, other than the action figures and plushies, are artbooks! for original sun/moon, usum, scarlet/violet, and it's hard to see but artbooks for the great ace attorney/dai gyakuten saiban as well !! also the gladion acrylic standee blends in well with wano zoro jfkdhjd omg do yall think gladion could do a closet cosplay of zoro (miko got him to do it <3)

also im not rlly big on pop funkos, theyre just gifts <3

AND TWO BINDERS OF POKEMON CARDS... i dont play i just collect them bc i like pretty art

SO UM. SECOND SHELF. one shelf dedicated to zolu, asl, and ace and sabo :3 behind the zolu figures are tiny plushies of them and rubber straps but well, its hard to see em </3

i got into one piece since like. early september and now i have an entire display dedicated to one piece 😭 + other things like persona lol

and my corkboard!! some cool one piece works and the wano zolu sc :3 it's really cool to have these things hfmhdjd

the ace print, frobin charms, rubber pins, and stickers i just pinned on are stuff i got from a con. everything else from jp mercari !!

tbh, the sealed gladion acrylic standee is like my most prized treasure... not that i dropped hundreds on it but i got it for a lot cheaper compared to the other sealed ones online :'D + his postcards too are one of my most prized possessions... i wonder who my favorite pokemon character is

honestly idk what to fill the empty space in with but i wanna balance out this corkboard with pkmn and OP so maybe i'll try to hunt for more pkmn stuff

this is all i'll share for now but the next post will show my two ita bags that i have :0 !!! and my comically large arcanine plushie that i named ace 😁🫶

[endless-oc-creations]

okay i’m not in the fandom but i have been hooked so pls tell me about mercy’s miraculous survival and memory loss!!!! <3

You are an ask a fairy godmother to me you know 🥺I appreciate you so so much because I always get to gush about my ocs with things I keep to myself.

Especially something like this that I want to gush about.

I didn't plan on getting so deep into the Sherlock fandom again, it just happened when I was reorganizing my DVD collections and saw my completed collection boxset.

I've been a fan of everything about Sherlock Holmes since reading the stories when I was a kid and of course, when BBC Sherlock came out I was beyond obsessed. It's just been a few years since I had gotten back into it so now I'm watching an episode every night with my dad when he gets home from work and he's never watched the show so it's like getting to experience it again so to speak lol.

I also will recommend the show to you if you haven't seen it...

Anyway onto that fateful day. This is a long post so that's why it goes to keep reading. It's to spare some people scrolling through all of this.

I should go into a tiny bit more detail about why she was shot so I will.

Mercy had thrown herself into a heavy caseload in Scotland Yard after Sherlock's 'death' because she hated going back to 221B alone. She had her dog, Pepper, for company of course, and her nan always popped in to check on her but it just wasn't the same without seeing either John or Sherlock.

A year after there had been a serious leak in Scotland Yard about dangerous information being leaked to criminals that shouldn't be given in regards to the safety of London and Greg recruited Mercy's help because she was the only one he could trust during that time.

So of course Mercy took the case, but she had taken a Sherlock type of route and investigated things on her own. It was obsessive trying to follow the clues and figure out who was doing this game and well when Mercy finally found the truth she herself was shocked and couldn't believe it herself it was in an abandoned factory, texting Greg that she had found it, was caught by that person.

It was there Mercy was shot in the head and left for dead, the 'killer' didn't know she had sent Greg a text message that told him to come immediately to the factory and just thought she would be left to rot there or until somebody stumbled upon her body.

That person had gotten rid of the evidence Mercy found in the factory and left just before Greg showed up and found Mercy, saving her life in the process by slowing down the bleeding and requesting immediate help.

Now there's a lot of science about surviving a gunshot wound to the head, like the angle of the gun, which gun is used, which lobe is damaged and a front-to-back shot is more survivable than receiving a shot from the side. So I will do more research about how Mercy survived medically, should I finally get off my ass writing and finishing my fanfics, so in fewer words, Mercy's case is like any few lucky survivors from getting shot in the head.

The only people by Mercy's beside while recovering were her grandmother, Mrs.Hudson, her boss, and friend Greg Lestrade. John was trying to cut ties with Baker Street so he didn't even know this had happened to her.

Mycroft knew of course but never told Sherlock what had happened to her knowing that it would distract him and force his brother to come clean about faking his death just to visit her.

So neither John nor Sherlock knew she had almost been killed until returning to Baker Street a year later.

Mercy was released in the care of her grandmother 6 months after being shot. This only meant that Mercy wasn't close to death anymore, she still had to deal with the long-term effects.

Mercy also had to leave Scotland Yard and take a momentary leave of absence as a working detective while she tries to recover. So Mercy focused on her therapy and art since she is a painter and painting helps calm her.

She had to have therapy help her in the hospital to grasp and hold things again normally. Sometimes Mercy will fumble and drop things accidentally now and again, but it doesn't really stop her from doing things.

Mercy also struggles with PTSD, any sounds that are similar to gunshots she gets in a panic, she course knows from doctors reports she was shot in the head Mercy can't remember who had done it. When she hears gunshots her mind is brock back to a jumped mess of a memory, a disorientating voice talking to her, feeling something press against the back of her head, and the BANG.

The thing Mercy really has trouble with is her memory loss. The doctors aren't really sure if it will be long-term or short-term because a year after being shot isn't much time to tell.

But to give a few examples, which are angsty, on some details on what she forgets is.

Mercy forgets who John and Sherlock are sometimes it's for a moment or it takes more than a few minutes for her brain to register who they are. The only two that Mercy never forgets are her grandmother and her canine companion Pepper.

She even sometimes forgets where she lives when walking Pepper and can be lost for a bit of time.

There's no real reason or trigger for these mini memory loss episodes it just happens in the spur of moments. Mercy can look distracted or lost when it happens.

Luckily when Sherlock and John are back in her life they both help her through her struggles with memory loss.

I get in my feels thinking about the small understanding things that Sherlock does for Mercy to help.

For example, the fluffy thought of Sherlock going out for a ‘walk’ turns into finding Mercy on her walk with Pepper and without making her feel silly or pressuring her to admit that she forgot where Baker Street was and even him for a moment, both end up walking back home together.

Like his silent patient understanding too🥺 it makes me weak.

If he looks at her and sees that she's struggling he always manages to coax her out of her episodes and act like nothing happened to help Mercy feel normal.
