Rating: G

Prompt(s):"You're looking, but you don't see."

Warnings: none

There were worse places to be than tethered to a affixed point in space.

Especially when that space was, quite miraculously on the surface.

There were a few downsides.

Namely, Dr. Wingdings Gaster currently found himself in an abandoned house with two floors aside from the top attic floor he was stuck in.

Why was this terrible you may ask?

Well, Dr. Wingdings Gaster had a most terrible fear of heights. That, and...well, it was very lonely up here.

He missed his family and he missed his friends. He also worried about the mess he had left behind.

Had the machine exploded?

Did Sans and his brother Papyrus traverse the demensional rift in time?

Was Grillby okay?

He...he really wanted to see them all again. Even when up here where he could see the sky in all its illustrious azure glory.

A creak on the stair grabbed his attention.

"Hello?" Gaster called out.

After a few more hesitant steps, a head of messy blond curls popped up just below the railing. As they rounded the top of the stair Dr. Gaster saw it was a young human, not much older than the ones he often saw at the bus stop out front.

The child's eyes were a gentle shade of grey-blue slate. They wore a little pink jacket and a comfortable looking sweater in a complimentary colour.

"Well, hello there!" Greeted Gaster warmly.

The child took a step into the room. Their eyes searching the corners. Not a lot was left up here. A desk, some scrap wood and a broken hat rack.

The child took in each of these items in turn before turning towards the window.

Towards him.

For a soul stopping moment, those blue-grey eyes settled on the spot where Wingdings was standing.

"Do you..." before he could help it, Gaster began to entertain the idea of finding a way to visually communicate.

He could find out where he was. Where the mountain stood and he could tell them to get help for-

The child's gaze slid off of him and to the right as they continued their exploration.

"You're looking, but you don't see."Dr. Gaster sighed.

Shafts of sunlight lit the space as dawn turned to a brighter morning light.

"You are out rather early, little one. Do your parents know?" Gaster joined the child in looking about the large attic room he'd come to inhabit.

Or was haunt more appropriate?

No, Dr. Gaster was quite certain he was still a skeleton and not a ghost.

Abandoned as it was, the building was still structurally sound, for the most part. Which was good! Even as incorporeal as he was, the thought of being affixed to a space with no floor beneath his feet was...upsetting.

The child continued their search, eventually opening the drawer in the desk.

There were dried leaves and a pencil inside.

Picking up the pencil the child turned to look over their shoulder. They looked right through Gaster and towards the stair.

After a few moments hesitation the child walked over to the back wall and began scraping the dull pencil lead against the raw unfinished boards.

E R I K A

"Erika..." Gaster watched as the child now strongly suspected of being an Erika darkened the letters as much as possible so they stood out on the wood.

The pencil lead destroyed, Erika stepped back to admire their work.

A small electronic beeping sounded from the child's wristwatch.

"Shoot!" The kid muttered.

"Erika!" Called a voice from outside.

"Did the house eat her?"

"No, stupid! Houses don't eat people, ghosts do."

The child now confirmed to be an Erika, rushed down the stairs two at a time.

"W-wait! Watch your step!" Gaster moved towards the window again and, steeling his nerves, looked down.

Standing at the bus stop were three children.

The tallest wore a dark blue sweater and ripped jeans.

As the much shorter form of Erika dashed across the lawn towards them the tall one called out.

"Took you long enough, Patterson!"

The two younger ones, a child in red and a child in yellow began fussing over them.

"Are you hurt?"

"Kurt wouldn't stop saying the ghosts got you!"

"There's no ghosts up there, Jenny. Its just a story kurt made up to scare you."

"But, my sister saw one! The one in the window!"

For the second time that morning Gaster's proverbial heart stopped.

The little girl in the purple coat was pointing very defiantly at the window he was looking out of.

Then, as all four kids looked back up at the window, the one in the red raised her hand with a shy smile and waved.

Just realised Suri probably didn't know racism was a real thing until she met Alex because she was raised in isolation from the real world and then Ms Atworth who took her in was too busy making sure she didn't literally explode to teach her about certain key social issues.

Shes first becoming friends with Alessa and Alex. Alex venting about micro aggressions and Suri is like "wait racism is real, I thought they made that up for TV and books? That's fucked up."

Alex and Alessa both have a moment of: oooh ok she has absolutely no idea about anything ever and that's why she's so fucking weird.

Axel, a doctor: I know 200 ways to kill a man.

Buttons: You could glue an open jar of rats to his face then blow torch the other side of the jar so the rats have to eat their way out through his face.

Axel:...201.

Well, first, My people, you guys have heard everything I needed to say today. I hope I said the right things. I hope you heard me. And I hope you go beyond here and do what you need to do, do the right thing. Strength in numbers. Look out for each other. You still got a chance with Shawn. Edwin you know what you gotta do. You have my love. It's the right thing. And for everybody else, those people who have malice in their heart, allow ambitions to over ride what they know. Be right. Even though they just gotta do their job. For all of you with hatred in their veins, and think this is ashamed. You've done nothing. I did this, I chose this, you've done nothing. Remember this, if all you know is hatred, if all you know is blood love, you'll never be satisfied. For everybody out there that is like that and knows nothing but negative, kiss my proud white Irish ass. I'm ready Warden, send me home.

so I think I figured out why Alysle Fray/Rhyse Thammades/Calian Atworth doesn’t work as a polycule. Not only is Calian a trans man, he is also not in love with Alysle in the romantic sense. He might be aro? I’m not sure. He loves Alysle, but it’s more queerplatonic than romantic. Holding hands and cuddling but not kissing or having sex. Those last two things, Alysle does with Rhyse, whom she loves in a different way. Alysle and Calian are meant for each other, they’re soulmates, but Alysle *chooses* Rhyse. To continue my habit of relating my own characters to other media, if these three were in the Shadowhunters books, Calian and Alysle would be parabatai while Rhyse and Alysle would be husband and wife.

I feel like I’ve been forcing Calian into a romantic relationship with Alysle when he really just wants to be content standing on his own. He’s been through so much, been dependent on external things his whole life, like the rigid Kyrstaad structure and literally when it comes to aurum, and he really just wants to be at peace with himself and who he is as an independent person.

I don’t know if I’ll ever write a love interest for him. He seems content being Alysle and Rhyse’s extra-stability-providing third wheel. He may even be aromantic and asexual. That would be refreshing for him to realize that he’s just not cool with kissing people’s mouths. Alysle gives him cheek kisses though, and that’s adorable. I’m keeping that. Rhyse might even start doing it too.

I guess what I’m saying is that I think my main romantic pairing is Alysle/Rhyse and that Calian and Alysle are queerplatonic soulmates.

If anyone has any questions about terms I’ve used here (like wtf is Aurum, who tf are Calian, Rhyse, and Alysle, etc) pls ask!!! I don’t remember what I’ve posted here in the past.

Ooooh someone tagged me in WIP Wednesday! It is Thursday, but I don’t give a fig! We’re doing this.

Here you go: an excerpt from my WIP. Because that’s what this is for.

“Sorry, I don’t think we really got a chance to get introduced.” Rhyse stood up straight and held back his confusion that he was about four inches taller than Atworth as he held out his hand for the other man to shake. “I’m Rhyse Thammades,” he said.

Atworth took the outstretched hand, his grip a little too loose, like he was actively trying not to squeeze too hard. “Nice to meet you, Agent Thammades. I wish it were under better circumstances.”

Rhyse grimaced. “No kidding. Your partner almost dying on you is a hell of a way to meet someone.” A pause. “If you don’t mind my asking . . . are the two of you partners partners? Like, romantic or queerplatonic or. . . .” He trailed off, because Atworth was blushing, his expression like a schoolboy who’d just been outed as having a crush. The lizard part of his brain thought that was cute. He told it to shut up and be professional, this was a Kyrstaad he was talking to.

“No, nothing like that,” Atworth was saying, far too quickly. “We grew up together. Alysle—Protector Corrin—sees me as a brother.”

Interesting. “You almost sound disappointed,” Rhyse said, applying pressure like this was an interrogation. It wasn’t, but if he was honest with himself, the in-person dynamic of the famed Corrin and Atworth duo was intriguing him, and some sick and twisted part of him wanted to see if he could break it open like an old case file. Or a bottle of wine.

Rhyse really needed a drink.

DESIGNING AN AIRBNB RENTAL IN SOUTHEND-ON-SEA

Out of the blue, this summer I was contacted by Fresh Kidz Lets, a company based in Southend-on-Sea who bought and renovated run down flats to then jazz them up and put on the short term letting market (most of the time, Airbnb). Since a) I like designing and b) I love using Airbnb's I was well up for it. I was even more up for it when Yemi, the founder (and now friend), was like 'do what you like. I trust you'. 

WHAAAAT! This is music to the ears of any designer. And trust me he did. I was basically allowed to do what I wanted.

THE BRIEF

Yemi wanted something to suit weekend travellers, couples mainly. Fresh Kidz lets have a theme of naming properties after music, so this one was named 'The Love Below' after Andre 3000s seminal work from 2003 (such a freakin' good album) which triggered the idea for the design scheme. 

The budget was very small which helped me to get creative and made me look at some options that I might not have before! Was a good challenge as a designer I think, even if it can be a little stressful at times. The fact that it was going to be rented out on Airbnb helped me make some decisions too. It meant I could be a bit more crazy - after all people are looking for something that's a bit different to their home and is totally instagrammable!

Now because this was my first flat with his company I didn't wanna go too crazy - because most people's crazy is my version of tame. So I decided on cool, but edgy, and I went for a bit of a boutique hotel vibe. 

These were the plans...

BEDROOM

In the bedroom I was super keen on doing black glossy walls with bright colour pops for the furniture and accessories. I wanted it to feel cool, sexy and a bit retro in this room, so I went for the dark style with a neon sign to give it a pop. Think 70s sleazy motel but like, way cooler. And Of course I made sure to include a ridiculously comfy mattress from my fave mattress brand, eve. 

Pieces:

Alana gold bed, £349 from Made.com

Arnie clothes rail, £18 from Habitat

Bumble side table, £70 from Habitat

Zans velvet cushion cover, £50 from The Cuzon Market

Custom neon sign, POA, Bag & Bones

Vintage film noir poster, Etsy, from £6.95

eve memory-foam double mattress, £599

LIVING ROOM

In the living room I wanted something bright and fresh. I decided on ice cream pink walls with a paprika red velvet sofa. Who says that red and pink is a colour clash hey? I wanted to connect all of the rooms in the flat by using the same flooring throughout - I knew I wanted something black and white, perhaps diamonds (I actually ended up going for something slightly different to the above). Even though this was a low budget flat I still wanted it to have some luxe finishes like velvet and brass. 

PIECES

Atworth Red Velvet sofa bed, Willow & Hall, £1320 - Can I just say...  how bloody sexy is this for a sofa bed?! I think it's possibly the most gorgeous of any sofa bed I've ever seen.. you'd never even know! This was definitely the star piece of the whole property. 

Martini side table, West Elm, £159

Crosley record player, Urban Outfitters, £89

Pink cushion cover, H&M Home, £12.99

White geo cushion cover, H&M home, (similar here), £3.99

TILES FOR THE BATHROOM AND KITCHEN

I didn't get heavily involved in the design of the bathroom and kitchen this time round, but I did get to pick out some uber cool tiles from British Ceramic Tile for use in both areas. For the kitchen I chose the from the Feature Floors HD distinction range, the grey matt wall & floor tile which has an incredible marble effect like so... 

and then I chose the White Gloss Wall tile from the cosmopolitan range and decided to lay them out as demonstrated on their website as I thought it was an interesting adaption to the usual brick style subway tiling we see so often. 

Now I'll let you in on a little secret... the flat is finished and there are a few more extra fun surprises. Just for a laugh, here's what the living room started out like before the renovation... 

It's like a completely different place now! Here's how it looked before the reno.

I'll be doing a reveal within the next couple of weeks so keep your eyes peeled!
