What The Woods Took
YA horror
a girl and boy are both kidnapped from their beds and taken to a wilderness program, to hike across the wilderness for 50 days with 3 other traumatised teens
when their two adult counselors are gone one morning, they aren’t sure if leaving them alone was part of the program - or if something more sinister is going on. especially when they start seeing things that cause them to turn on each other…
butch lesbian mc
#what the woods took#courtney gould#aroaessidhe 2024 reads#sapphic books#this is a good YA horror about survival and trauma#some interesting characters and weird and freaky horror situation - though honestly I would have loved a bit more about the mimics.#Though obviously the focus is definitely more on the interpersonal relationships and their own personal journeys with their shit#(csa; foster care; addiction; abuse) which I felt were handled sensitively#it absolutely makes sense that a bunch of scared teens with various traumas would make dumb decisions in the wilderness#but it doesn’t make it less frustrating when they split up AGAIN haha#though I have to say why does it take her 3 weeks to read this diary she found that might have info in it.#bro surely you can skim that in a day or two???#I liked the hate-to-love development of the sapphic relationship#the kinda fucked up nature of the other thing was interesting too.#love the cover too as always#also as I said I would - this is a SMP book and I donated a book cost to a GFM (latest one I reblogged)#it’s f/f and also m/f but the sapphic one is like. the main one#also she's butch in that the word is used once to describe her i think but not like an active regular identity word. if I remember

for commissions, do you accept a written description as reference when doing oc art?
Ummmmmm i guess yeah, but it'll make the progress take a bit longer and I might need to ask a Lot of questions
#not an art#Some ppl just give me picrew images you can always try those#The only thing of it is it takes longer to skim text than to have a ref pic to look at#Can't have a little thumbnail of text in the corner#That's why I assume it'll take a little longer I've never actually done it

what is your favorite thing about charles and your favorite thing about erik? separately, as in what you like most about their characters :]
a devious question this one is, my friend!!! it's hard enough for me to explain my thoughts cohesively, but having to pick ONE thing i particularly love is difficult. with characters like charles and erik, theres been so much done with their characters over the decades and so they have so many components to them that make them so interesting and fun to observe. BUT I TRY FOR YOU TODAY. under the cut i kinda ramble and the size of this text box makin me anxious
i think if i were to be simple and broad, what i enjoy most about charles is his determination to help others, even if he isn't really thanked and/or if people don't even like him. ofc, this isn't to say he hasn't done wrong- to be honest, the fact he does wrong/questionable things at times is another aspect of him i really enjoy, maybe because- broadly speaking- he's meant to be altruistic (intent vs outcome and all that). i don't know if that's super exciting to most people, but it is for me
as for erik, my reason for liking him is easier to explain tbh. To Be Simple And Broad, his progression from villain to antihero over the decades has been fun to observe (as much as i have so far anyhow) and analyze. i think to be a bit more specific, him using his rage and pain as justifications for his villainous actions is definitely what compels me the most: hurt people hurt and the sort, an idea i've always found interesting (something something vicious cycles and the like). yet now, he recognizes this wasn't really. A Just Thing To Do and is beginning to change that, which i enjoy
#snap chats#may you forgive me anon i always feel awkward explaining things AVELKJEAKLJ#i feel esp awkward cause i haven't read toooo much of the comics yet- like ive read. an ok amount so far krakoa wise#can you guys tell im fighting god himself to Not write a fuckin. NOVEL#im so sorry i have an over-explaining problem my mom was mean to me growing up but anyways#i definitely want to read more and more outside krakoa. the more i read the more im fascinated by these two and their history#but to continue my prattling. as if the three paragraphs above arent enough This Is Not A Thesis RELAX#i think a. 'poignant' moment i think adds to what i like about charles too is that soliloquy where he recognizes people dont like him#yet he could always be worse- like if he's bad now to others imagine if he really just said Fuck It All#it's simple but so am i whaddyagonnadoboutit. i mean that point itself could be discussed but i'm trying to keep this brief bear with me#i so bad want to know what issue that's from tho all i know is that it's from krakoa but i neeeed the whole context#i think like. an additional bullet point to charles i also like is his loneliness#and i say this cause- I Say From My Amateur-Psychology Armchair- it's a component of why he's so earnest to help#but im keeping this point in the tags until i can confidently verify that with myself after some more reading#Unfortunately a favorite pass time of mine is psychoanalyzing characters like why else you think i major in psychology smh#im going to force myself to cap the post here because i ended up typing like 20 more tags just rambling#and as i said id like to keep this simple and clean !!!!! i have sat here for like four hours answering this ngl#ignore the fact half that time was spent getting distracted by solitaire and riffling cards ok I Am Very Easily Distracted#but fr when it comes to charles and erik- charles esp imo#i feel like i need to write a whole paper just so i can mention the nuances of the characters and like. EVERYTHING#because again six decades is A Lot of time for writing decisions to be made and for their characters to change over time#im a glazer but i wanna be a nuanced glazer yk. is that glazing at that point-- w/e anyway#its a lot. so today you will have to tolerate a very Blah answer from me which i must apologize for#down the line once ive read a comfortable amount more varying from multiple eras maybe ill revisit this question more in depth#as of right now tho .... chat i wanna get legion of x so bad i skimmed it and hhhhhhhhim gonna throw UP#i need to shake charles like a ragdoll BUT ANYWAY. bye bye for now lovelies !!!!!!!#please forgive me if i didnt answer your question efficiently ..#here i am saying i wanted to keep the tag count brief and yet !!! jesus christ. shut up My God I REACHED THE TAG LIMIT

“I don’t even go here!!” I insist, running aimlessly through the square, phone flashlight blazing as the sun sets. “I haven’t read all the source material! I got all this through osmosis! One minute I was drawing Charlie and I thought I’ll add a bow due to her-due to his charm, and then suddenly I’m drawing Frederica, I don’t know how this happened!” Everyone keeps scrambling indoors, the streetlights aren’t coming on, someone motions for me to turn off my phone. “What-“ my voice is drowned out by a deafening drone from above. I look up in time to see the silhouette of a German plane pass overhead before the ground shakes violently with the detonation of a bomb and my vision goes black. The last thing I see is the vague image of a doctor pulling an injured man out from under a collapsed building.
#frederica#?#stanvoeux#Charles des voeux#chat. idk. i think at this point she is appearing in my head whether or not i actually read it#so i suppose why not it will make the obsession worse#ive been holding out because some of the tags are the sort of thing that make me uncomfortable#but i can always skim !!#i was just drawing Charlie and then i was like ok put a bow on him.. and then i see im drawing frederica instead#i know so much about her just from the posts i see#so anyway this goes out to The Frederica Mutual you know who you are 🫶

how often do you think nikolai uses his skill to steal things?
depends on whether or not you consider misplacing items the same as stealing them (he only borrowed that telephone pole, it’s not his fault that things got so heated he didn’t get a chance to put it back… there’s so many of them around anyway, who’s gonna miss one? he even left it in a public place, if the city really wants it back so badly, they can send someone out there to get it). he certainly uses it to borrow things without asking and leave them in increasingly absurd places for the owner to find (but dos, why wouldn’t laptop go in the fridge? you’ve been complaining about the cpu overheating all week! the shampoo bottle looks way less lonely between the condiments too. where’s the mouthwash, you ask? well… smash cut to fukuchi experiencing a whole new flavour of hangover). stealing things to keep though? not sure about that.
stealing is such a boring crime anyway, especially if you have the ultimate yoinking device. i think if fyodor puts him up to a (crucial, important, don’t-fuck-it-up-under-any-circumstances) task he will make use of it so as to not unnecessarily sacrifice efficiency, but otherwise if he wants to acquire things for the low low price of free, he’ll do it by way of stupidly elaborate bamboozlements... he'll trick you into giving him what he wants, no criminal activity needed. u know how clowns sometimes involve audience members, make them go along with stupid bits and such? kind of like that. he’s charismatic, confident, dramatic. he's an actor. he has your wallet, your phone and your firstborn before you realize he’s just fucking with you.
#bsd nikolai#i guess it also depends on what you headcanon his backstory to be#in canon universe i can see him living a nomadic lifestyle before meeting fyodor#keep in mind i haven’t looked at the last like 3 chapters and only skimmed the ones before#so if there were any major nikolai reveals that contradict that… i don’t know send me to the fucking gulag‚ i’m a fake fan#i imagine he might have been a performer#not necessarily always at a circus‚ but never in the same place for long#he might stay with a theatre troop for a few months and then sneak away to the circus for a week or three#nikolai is the only character i ever had a specific voice headcanon for before he had his anime debut#so i personally also enjoy the idea of him joining bands and musical theatre casts#that’s not the point tho#the point is he’s flighty and all over the place#he travels light‚ doesn’t need much and will trick and charm his way into free meals if needed#though he may not often use his skill to steal‚ he WILL use it to cheat at the poker table#(the slot machines‚ the russian roulette round‚ whatever comes up)#he leaves the establishment with half a year’s rent and nobody ever figures out how he did it#am i off-topic enough yet? do i need to stop?#howling from the shadow realm

would there be reason for me to post links to my fics on tumblr as well. are there people following me who would want to read my stuff that aren't already opening and closing the chess tag like a fridge
#i have my ao3 linked in my pinned so i always assume people can see if they want to but i think maybe people skim over that#.txt

unironic love of the newspaper is not where i thought hyperfixations would take me but yk life is full of surprises
#love reading awful weird horoscopes#LOVE reading the lil stories and finding out stuff going on in my lil town#and lately have taken a liking to the dear abbey segments as well#its like r/redditships except everyone writing in writes like theyre making an offering to a god#and i can appreciate that#pls pls abbey tell me if my marriage is good. dear abbey was i in the wrong or was my awful dreadful sister in law wrong.#abbey pls moral council that you are tell me why my grandkids wont text#its almost as fun as the legal section which is always fun to skim#crosswords on their own are frustrating but you turn it into a group activity and forbid googling and that shit turns into jackbox REAL fast#anyways#my postings

Now that I'm down to the last 2 episodes of HDM I guess I should start bracing myself for plot-relevant children kissing. I don't care if it saves the world, I hate watching people kiss on TV.
#i'm always like should I turn away. do you need privacy#at least in books i can skim#kat watches his dark materials

My new hobby is skimming through seasons of Ninj//ago to induce a fever dream like state in my psychese
#I've always had kinda like....petty beef with ninj//ago just cause like. EVERYONE compares it to monkie kid#When they r just not comparable beyond the surface level observation that its legos#Like ninj//ago contributes to the idea of an Asian monolith and uh. It's annoying to me.#It's also so thematically empty and they just reset shit whenever and it barely has characters. It's not good#Which makes me feel crazy when lmk is SO good. Like so so so good#Let it be known I've seen all that's out of drag//on rising#the first 3 seasons of the og show. And I skimmed through possession seabound and both crystal king parts#Gotta say. Sea Nya slaps like what the hell#Ninj//ago isn't good but that was legitimately like. Awesome#So there are officially 1 and a half episodes that I find thematically banging#I'm always a sucker for there being no good choice but still having to choose. Like I am. What decision can you live with#But Nya losing herself to the Sea? Losing her own breath and inhaling the sea to remove the water out of Jay's lungs?#The fact that she only became the water ninja because her friends needed her which eventually pushed her into this fate#Making it so she couldn't remember who she was or what her loved ones meant to her?#Her convo with nyad was like#duuddeeeeeeeeeee. brooooooo#Like she became eternal and endless. A force of nature but there was still a small part of her that remembered what ''good'' is#The part of her that would save a sailor who had gone overboard even if it went against the natural course of the ocean#Because there is no right or wrong there. Except in the small drop of Nya that was left#Like what the FUCK that's CRAZYYY BRO#Like she literally had to pull herself out of herself (the sea) to keep ''Nya'' together like. oh my god. How the cookie crumbles I guess#ninjago critical#anyways I've been losing my mind about Sea Nya and how nothing else in ninja//go is like it I needed to get it off my chest#sea nya

I've always liked this line of dialogue from SQX, because it does feel like at the end of the day, no matter how much SQX says he can't stand PM, he does still have a decent grasp of his character.
And on the other side of this, these words are just especially pointed towards Pei Xiu, who does have a good relationship with his boss/ancestor, and also going off his backstory, Pei Ming may well have been the first person in his life to acknowledge him and his talents.
So the whole thing just feels extra sad.
#that said it does bug me that px never seems to feel guilt over his own actions only how those actions affect banyue and pei ming#get it together you sopping wet cat of a man!#i've always wanted to write this but don't have the skills necessary#but i think a lot about if pm's faith in px does feel uncomfortable - is he acknowledging him because he sees his worth#or because he's a pei (something that has never helped px in any way in life)#everyone calls px a nepo baby but no no he's a hard worker and earned what he has#if anything i feel like being pei ming's descendant is still dragging him down because he's the only upper court official we know of#who's playing subordinate to someone else instead of managing his own domain#(fandom always thinks he's middle court but no its stated several times that he ascended properly lol)#(and i just find that beautifully tragic and fitting in his own way)#(px: always the understudy never the lead)#aaaanyway this all contrasts in a fun way with sqx who is the actual nepo baby#is also worshiped in conjunction with someone else BUT never reduced to just that relationship#idk just as pei ming's relationship with both shiblings is important to me#i find sqx's relationship with both peis very fascinating and wish sqx + px could be explored more#and also I want to see where swd + px fit into all of this because there's also so much potential there!#(incidentally the thing that started all of this is i was skimming the russian tl for something the other day)#(and noticed this line was translated as 'pei ming would never behave in such a way')#(and just thought that sqx calling him 'pm' here instead 'your general pei' gives the line a different vibe haha)#(it's sounds both more intimate and pointed if that makes sense?)#(anyway can you tell i am very starved for peixuan content? both peixuans)#tgcf#random tgcf thoughts#shi qingxuan#pei ming#pei xiu

AHHH... the fact that sam actually reads the journal instead of just burning it, just to be really thorough, and discovers it's the painting that needs to be burned instead via the context clues... so he doesn't have to burn the firsthand account journal from a woman in 1520s florence... or the rest of her belongings... this makes my museum work oriented brain (and heart) extremely happy.
#if i can count on anybody to do their research it is always sam <33#theo.txt#spn 10x16#spn liveblog#spn#i am so relieved he actually looked into it instead of just burning the thing. i love u dean but WHY would u suggest this. like i know its#an incredibly personal belonging that very well could be the attachment of the ghost... but its also the only clue you have... so why would#you not at least skim it first OR ask the other nun (who i believe read it) if she thinks it could be another object than the journal??#anyway. yeag <3#spn 10x16 spoilers#spn spoilers

I opened up about my body image issues and people called me a horrible person, told me I'm invalidating people with eds and that I'm body shaming people? God what the fuck? Ive got no fucking support system in real life and the Internet just hates me I guess.
#every waking moment of my life for three years was spent making sure other people had a person to vent to#but i can't vent to anyone#well ive got one person who wont even read my fucking text messages so i could say anything but i need someone to know#i need someone to say ill be okay. i need someone to be the person i was.#and nobody does that for me#ive got one person who cant even answer a ask on tumblr. honestly fuck you. i hope youre reading this. i spent so many nights awake making#sure you felt seen and you were okay. i gave up so much of my time to always be there for you. but you cant even respond “haha” to a stupid#joke? i get social interaction is hard. i get it. but this isnt. all you have to fucking do is open an ask. skim it for an idea of the vibe#and type haha or aw im sorry or smthing. its so easy. you know i have crippling anxiety. shit like this brings back trauma. it sends me into#a really bad panic attack. you suck. i hate to say that. cause you dont. you are genuinely a good person but you hate yourself so much that#youre actually trying to be a bad person#nothing you ever do will make me hate you but i sure am mad. me and A spent a few hours talking about how much we were worried about you#he doesn't have tumblr. when he found out you havent been messaging me he thought you killed yourself. for him its complete radio silence#just say something. like one of my posts. you dont have to do much. just do the bare minimum so i know you dont hate me.#cause if you dont hate me right now you really suck. really do. and if you do hate me please communicate that with me so i can fix myself

i wish i could have a silly little day on tumblr but I have to read my 80 page HOA document to see if the boomer condominium overlords will ALLOW me to get my new dishwasher (that i bought on black friday like a true, miserable adult marching towards death) DELIVERED AND INSTALLED on the 23rd as expected or if I have to cancel the delivery because there are too many rules for me to abide by and my soul is simply too tired to jump through the necessary hoops to comply.
#i cannot stress enough do not buy a home with an HOA#i have a condo in LA so it was unavoidable but if you can avoid it by all means please save yourself#they wont even let me change my fucking BLINDS because the windows belong to the outside word I guess and not to me#guys i am an idiot and i only skimmed the HOA docs while i was buying the home#because i thought the only relevant thing to me was the pet policy#when i found out a few weeks after i moved in about just how many rules there were I cried my eyes out#the worst is there is always some elderly woman with nothing better to do than be the HOA police#speaking of dishwashers have you noticed they all fuckign SUCK im hoping this one i bought doesn't suck#my last word of advice is that word on the street is to NEVER buy a samsung refrigerator#i mean its hard tho cause they look so cool....u know.......#they come in so many colors.....................like pink#.................its so.................................tempting.............................#but apparently they break and theyre like impossible to fix and its like a horrible waste of money.........#but i cant help but be like.......................but what if that DOESNT happen to me?????????????#like what if samsung got their shit together and i can just have a really cool pink refrigerator#guys im fucking rambling because im procrastinating reading the HOA doc lord HELP me

When a completed fic mysteriously updates with a new chapter, but it is not the final chapter and there are no author's notes about it at the beginning nor end.
??????????????????????????????
#Latee speaks#...I mean I guess it's good that it's one that I had skim read through the latter half and keep meaning to properly read#because no matter how short the chapters are that's 50+ chapters to sort through#and this is at least the second time it's happened#...just to clarify I don't normally skim read#just a combination of my increasingly wandering attention span and other things#making waaay too many tabs on my phone and loosing where ever I originally was#both me and my pc can barley keep up with the tabs and I've slowly moved to reading more on my phone#making use of a 'To Read' tag to try to focus#...skimming a recent update to inspire myself back to the beginning--which usually works--not always#I am split between making a more obvious tag for fics I've done this too or just sticking with the one#...that i keep forgetting#I just have no idea what to tag it though...#actually I do need to change it because symbols can be weird with the search#.....

Hey, do you got doctors appointments you need to schedule but haven’t for whatever dumb reason (for me, laziness. probably. no no, complacency. That sounds better)? Well, go do it! Now! or soon! You need to just hurry up and schedule that shit! I’m sorry! Make the call! You gotta! You’re probably gonna have to wait multiple weeks for the appointment anyway, so if you wait until the problem is really bad, then you’re just condemning yourself to waiting extra long to get checked out. Jeez!
#this is mostly directed at me#still having breathing issues#it maaaaay be related to sinus issues. I don’t think that’s entirely it but it’s worth a shot#My sinuses have been messed up for so so long and it’s killing me and I just now set up an ENT appointment#so now. good job at making the appointment. but now you gotta wait 2.5 weeks just for the initial check-in#I just want someone to stick a lil camera up my nose and see why my lil holes always feel so swollen 🥺#my poor lil holes 🥺#but I’ll probably have the initial meeting and then if I can convince them to scope me out that’ll take a bit to schedule. probably.#been having breathing issues lately which you may have noticed if you skimmed any of my recent flood of text posts#went looking back through old head scan reports and and saw some mentions of nasal polyps and blockage#that of course no one ever mentioned at the time#and I’ve always suspected that my sinuses might be deviated or have growths or whatever bc breathing was never my strong suit#but maybe it’s nothing 🤷🏻♂️#but maybe it’s something. that’s the thing. I should have looked into this before it got bad#I have a real bad issue with complacency#life doesn’t even have to be GOOD. as long as I can live and not be stressed and be lazy I will 99% of the time just do nothing#hence… why my life is like… this. uneventful. sad. bare minimum of an existence.#this is getting too existential and self-deprecating#I don’t know what I’m going to do for 2.5 weeks. stressful.#I know it won’t fix all of my problems. not my MAIN issues. but doing SOMETHING is not nothing. especially if it takes the edge off#too many tags#you can ignore this#just go make that phone call!#I’d make it for you if I could!#text
