#changed my bed sheets

[ln4wins]

i have been tidying my house since 10.30 this morning and i’m so bored of doing it, but i’m so close to being done

My mom has this awful friend, Cynthia. My loathing goes deep enough that I’m not even going to change her name. If she ever finds this she knows what she did.

On multiple occasions my mom asked this horrible irresponsible chicken brained woman to watch after our animals while we were away. I don’t know why once wasn’t enough, because the first failure was so spectacular that anyone in their right mind would know she couldn’t be trusted with any level of responsibility or direction following.

You might be thinking to yourself, FFS, this level of antipathy is surely unwarranted! But you’d be wrong.

To set the scene, we were living in downstairs of our house when I was about fifteen. My mom has always wanted more animals than can reasonably be kept indoors which is how we ended up with three cats. When she wanted to kick them all outside I protested, and so all three cats lived in my bedroom with no access to the rest of the house.

That really wasn’t great, so in an attempt to give them options we made a window cutout with a cat door in it to give them access to the outdoors. Looking back on this as an environmentally conscious adult it’s wretched, cats should be indoor only, but at the time I was desperate to give them some freedom because one bedroom is too small for three cats.

So my parents and I went on a week long trip to visit family out of state. We told Cynthia to come feed and water the cats, and to scoop the litter box. Most importantly, don’t lock the handle of the door, because we only have the key to the deadbolt.

I’m sure you can see where this is going.

Cynthia locked us out. We arrived home after 12 hours on the road, desperate for the comfort of our own beds. We were met with an unyielding door. With a sigh I volunteered, “I can punch in the cat door and climb in the window.”

I slipped behind the bamboo outside my window and pushed in the cutout. A horrible insidious reek wafted out at me. I paused, prickling with foreboding. But I had a job to do, and by god I’d see it through. I hefted myself up into the window and my hand immediately landed in something wet.

Skin crawling, I pulled myself up and surveyed the darkened room as a miserable odor of decay and suffering poured out of the room around me. I could see dark shapes littering the carpet and it didn’t take a genius to guess that the cats had taken up hunting in a big way during my absence.

I pulled my hand out of the pile of vomit it had landed in and dropped into my onetime bedroom turned now into a hellpit of decomposing wretchedness. I turned on the light. I wished I had not turned on the light.

My eyes scanned across the floor, tallying as they went. Two dead birds, a dead baby rabbit, five dead mice, and one dead snake. I paused on my alarm clock, perplexed to see a stain of white on it. I stepped closer and saw a furtive movement.

The tally suddenly contained also: one live bird that had shit in several places, probably in pure terror to find itself trapped in a room littered with decomposing woodland creatures, which honestly, fair. I coaxed it out the window and finished the survey with five discrete piles of vomit.

I unlocked the door and let my parents in. They exclaimed in disgust at the horrible smell. We stood together in my doorway floored by the magnitude of neglect. The unscooped litter box was a subtle footnote in the tangible reek my living space. I disposed of the parade of ecological disaster, cleaned vomit, and scooped the box after a brutally long day on the road. The cats were fine, and happy to see me. They had a huge dish or food and water so Cynthia’s neglect at least hadn’t harmed them.

Then I slept on the couch while my bedroom aired out, the windows flung wide to dispel the uneasy ghosts of the hunted. I spent the whole night cursing Cynthia’s name for this evil she’d visited upon me. When my mom asked her, "Cynthia, didn't you see the dead animals?"

Cynthia responded, "Yes, they smelled so bad, I just ran in and out as fast as I could." I fully don't believe she did any caretaking, and I'm personally of the opinion that she locked herself out on the first day and never came back.

The next day my room had returned to a habitable level of smellscape and I gratefully crawled into my bed that night. I stretched out and froze as my foot brushed something cold and wet?

The final indignity: one last dead snake, inside my very sheets.

Fucking Cynthia.

what they don't tell you about having a job is that your feet will hurt forever

[esperanzacboronial]

Maturing is realising that (unfortunately) running daily outside is actually good for you and makes you feel good mentally and emotionally and physically and it is (unfortunately) worth the toil if you can manage it. Hate to say it

[morcantinon]

I was thinking about what ed and stedes first "adult relationship fight" might look like.. maybe stede isn't very happy with the life of running an inn, maybe he's missing piracy and being on water.. and then ed would be all like "then why did you agree to this in the first place?" and stede would just say "because izzy died" and OH MY GOD this is all i can think about right now!

Stede has witnessed death, been directly and non directly the cause of it. This isn't the death of some random English soldier, or a pirate or a badminton (sure those deaths affected stede). This is different, izzy is someone stede grew to care about, he was his first mate (for like a week but it still means something), he protected the crew, he probably was eds longest friend/first mate, stede saw how panicked and heartbroken ed was, crying over izzy in a way that stede has only seen once before (in the tub when ed admitted to killing his father)...

izzys death hit stede hard, it's probably been a long time since stede last lost a person he cared about. I mean just look at this face!!

And when people who are in your life, people you care about die, you start thinking about your own mortality and the mortality of the ones you love and i doubt stede would ever want to be in a similar situation, holding a bleeding, dying ed who's saying his last words after some battle they barely escaped! So it makes sense for stede to jump at the idea of running an inn, away from danger, where it's less likely for him to lose the love of his life!

I think izzys death isn't only important for eds arc, it's probably important for stedes as well and the third act of their story/relationship! I genuinely think that izzys death kicked started the third act of the story!

Just because izzys death was rushed in the finale, it doesn't mean it won't have a big impact on the story forward!
