#blame it on the cold weather

[biographydivider]

I love @ashwii‘s lovely, dreamy Celestial AU for Rise, and the last two lines of this popped into my head while I was pretending I didn’t have to get up and get ready for work. I wanted to paint the boys in a sort of folklore-ish light, since we make up so many stories about the night sky. Kinda poetry, kinda prose, all Donatello.

A Perfect, Cold Light

Did you know the moon is a turtle?

It's true. Don't scoff. Listen.

The tides are his creation;

He watches them wash in and out

Like a child with a favorite toy -

Glass to pearls

Stone to sand.

Endless functionality;

It’s charming, in his eyes.

He loves music; we know

Because the wolves sing lullabies to soothe him -

Drifting off to sleep, complaining even as he yawns.

And I? I sit upon the cliffside, looking up.

Thinking on creation, phases,

Depth and cycle.

He contains multitudes

As do I.

Leave the stars and the sun

For someone else to love.

Context:

One of my fanfiction works has a small, but dedicated following on AO3 where I have a few regulars who comment. It is the only one that currently exists in its fandom.

On the other hand, I've had an idea for a much more popular fandom that I've been working on. I will be working on both, but which should I prioritize?

Winter's finally here

And so are the winter shenanigans. Bash is adjusting to his new life, and Ella keeps on working on her studies. She nailed her first term and we're proud.

my father: (sick with a cold)

me: you could at least wear a mask when you interact with people instead of coughing in their face

my father, exasperated: oh it's just a cold

me, internally: you have been non-stop whingeing about this oh-so-dramatic cold, but all of a sudden when it comes to contaminating other people, it is "just a cold"?

me, externally: (not saying anything because god forbid I hysterically ~use a tone~ and ~forget my place~)

my metal hurts so bad

[faeratil]

I love when my arthritis makes my legs feel so weak that I can feel that it’s just a matter of time before I collapse.

Will it be on my way to bed? Will it be in the middle of my shift tomorrow? Will it be avoided? Will I be able to stand up after?

Who knows!

The world is playing tricks on me I swear. How on earth does the weather change to being "nice" outside for one day instead of boiling hot and I immediately get sick 🫠 Weak immune system fr fr
