I canā€™t quite run dnd (so many numbers. variable success thresholds. does not compute well with chel brain) and Iā€™m not entirely sure what other systems I could run this idea with, but I have this campaign idea in my head of like. Characters whose stories never got to finish getting catapulted into a new adventure of some sort.

Note
my D&D character carries a log that she carves updates on her adventures and discoveries in. She calls it her 'Adventurer's Log'.
What the hell, thatā€™s hilarious
While neither of my kids are really into writing about their adventures, Fyf loves telling stories about shit they and their party have gotten up to!!Ā ā€œPuzalā€™s wings fell offā€,Ā ā€œchests can eat peopleā€, such like that

August Media Madness
Well, August may have sucked for me personally, but that doesnā€™t mean I didnā€™t keep track of all the media I consumed this month! And spoiler alert, I watched a lot of movies involving adorable talking bears. Although, I have a feeling that as soon as the fall television premieres start, Iā€™ll be watching a lot less movies.
Julyā€™s media
Movies!
Dear Evan Hansen
Thank you bootlegs. This isnā€™t a movie, but I didnā€™t want to make a separate category for plays when Iā€™ve only seen one this month. Anyway, if you havenā€™t heard of it, Dear Evan Hansen involves an incredibly anxious teenage boy who is tasked by his therapist to write motivational letters to himself. Unfortunately, Connor Murphy, an angsty boy who goes to Evanā€™s school sees one of the letters, takes it, and promptly decides to kill himself, with the letter still on his person. Everyone ends up thinking he and Evan were friends and that this letter was a suicide note that Connor wrote to Evan...and a beautiful fake gay relationship friendship was born. Call me basic as hell, but Iā€™ve watched this show twice now, and listened to the soundtrack more times than I can count, and itā€™s turning into my favorite musical. There are so many important messages in it, and it takes you on a roller coaster of emotions. Every character does good and bad things, and no one is blameless or innocent...except maybe Zoe Murphy. If anything just listen to the soundtrack. 10/10
Tumblr media
Night on the Galactic Railroad
Cats...on a mystical train...This seems like the kind of movie they would show you in film school. Very dull plot and characters with the themes being the main takeaway. What even is the plot of this movie? Darker, grittier, furry version of the Polar Express? Incredibly boring slightly more religious version of Over the Garden Wall? I just kept watching it because the main character looks like a cat version of Kagayama Tobio in middle school...cat-gayama. 4/10
Paddington
An adorable bear from South America travels to London and gets into all sorts of trouble with an English family. Itā€™s very charming and sweet, and the aesthetic in this movie is on point, like Wes Anderson directed a childrenā€™s movie. This is one of those movies you hear about where everyone loves it, and you think it canā€™t possibly be that good, but then you watch it and you were wrong! So wrong! 10/10
Paddington 2
Naturally. This time an adorable South American bear goes to prison, and his family tries to clear his name. Again, A+ aesthetic and imagery, but I think I preferred the plot of the first movie a little more because everyone was all together. 9/10
Christopher Robin
Do you like Winnie the Pooh? Do you like jaded adults finding happiness in their lives again? Do you think the movie Hook had a good premise but was extremely long and kinda boring and could have been a better movie with a little tweaking? Well this is the movie for you! Christopher Robin has grown into an overworked adult, and his old friend Winnie the Pooh inadvertently helps him reconnect with his wife and daughter (and also his inner child) just by being the sweet, clumsy, dry humored bear we all know and love. I was so skeptical of this movie at first, and I was absolutely blown away by how funny and meaningful it was. 100/10
The Road to El Dorado
Two lovable Spanish con men named Miguel and Tulio are accidentally swept away on a journey to the fabled city of El Dorado, where everything is made of gold. Once they reach the city, the locals believe theyā€™re gods due to an (un)fortunate series of coincidences, and the con men try to keep up the charade with the help of the best character in the movie, Chel (who Iā€™m pretty sure caused an entire generation of lesbiansā€™ sexual awakening). This is one of my favorite animated movies of all time and one of the reasons I wish Dreamworks would go back to their 2D animation days, where the visuals and music were just as stunning as 3D movies are now. This movie is a classic, and I desperately want a sequel! 10/10
To All The Boys Iā€™ve Loved Before
When Lara Jean thinks itā€™s a good idea to write 5 secret love letters to 5 boys that sheā€™s had crushes on over the years, everything is fine until her little sister mails the letters to all the boys (because even a 6th grader knows Lara Jean is lonely and emotionally stunted as fuck). This is a Netflix original movie that was adapted from the book by Jenny Han...which I havenā€™t read, but now I really want to. Overall, this was super cute, but I wasnā€™t really crazy about the boys. They werenā€™t horrible people or anything, and they never pressured Lara Jean or made fun of her for being ā€œinnocentā€, but they were just kind of bland. Iā€™m much more interested in the other boys we didnā€™t see in the movie! But the family relationships were so heartfelt, Lara Jeanā€™s fashion sense is AMAZING, and the acting/casting was awesome. 8/10
Tumblr media
Summer Wars
I...donā€™t even know how to describe the plot of this one. A teenage boy named Kenji goes on a country holiday and pretends to date an acquaintance of his in order to impress her enormous family...but itā€™s really about an AI that becomes sentient and wants to mess up the world through this universal internet program called OZ thatā€™s kind of like a mashup of Facebook and Second Life...but actually no itā€™s about family sticking together and using a Japanese card game to save the worldā€¦but apparently itā€™s got the same plot as the Digimon movie because theyā€™re both directed by Mamoru Hosoda. Yeah...
Guys, I have a confession to make...this has always been my favorite Mamoru Hosoda movie. Everyone falls all over themselves saying Wolf Children is the best Mamoru Hosoda movie, and thatā€™s great for them but it doesnā€™t even come in second for me. Summer Wars means a lot more to me personally because I come from a big extended family, and when I first saw this movie, I was blown away by how accurate the family dynamic was. There are so many characters, but everyone has their own personality. Not to mention the music makes the summer atmosphere so on point. And Iā€™m not going to lie...I bawled like a fucking baby the first time I saw this movie. So anyway, I like Summer Wars more than Wolf Children, thanks for coming to my TED talk. 10/10
Atlantis: The Lost Empire
Unappreciated researcher Milo Thatch goes on an expedition to find the lost city of Atlantis.
Okay, there are two kinds of Disney fans in this world: Treasure Planet fans, and Atlantis fans. And I will support Treasure Planet as the best underrated vaguely steampunk inspired Disney movie until you can pry my 15 year old dvd copy away from my cold dead hands. But Atlantis is pretty good too. I could write essays comparing the two and why both of them should be successful but werenā€™t. My main problem with it is that the characters are great, but I feel like we donā€™t see enough of them, and as a kid a lot of the humor went by so fast that I completely missed it. Also the glowing eyes and spirits taking over the Atlantian princessā€™s body freaked me the fuck out as a child. NEVERTHELESS! This really is a great movie, with extremely well developed lore and well designed characters that chills me to this day. 8/10
Deadpool 2
The merc with a mouth is back, and man thereā€™s so much going on in this movie I wonā€™t even try to explain the plot. I literally had to go back and add this in because I was so into this movie when I was watching it that I forgot to write it down! Even though I really liked this sequel, I think I liked the first one better, just based on how much I laughed. There was so much going on plot wise, but it really seemed to work for this movie. There were also a lot of great new characters (Domino is my favorite character of the franchise now), but since there was so much stuff going on, a lot of jokes and plot lines were sort of hit and miss. Anyway, Iā€™m sure everyoneā€™s seen this one by now but just in case, I highly recommend it. 9/10
Books!
The Adventure Zone Graphic Novel: Here There be Gerblins by Clint McElroy (technically all the McElboys) and Carey Pietsch
Yeah yeah, for anyone who doesnā€™t know Iā€™m Adventure Zone trash okay. TAZ is a DnD podcast where 3 brothers and their father create one of the most famous campaigns in history involving three idiot adventurers going on a quest to find a missing person and getting sucked into a much larger grand plan to protect the world. This graphic novel is a visualization of the first arc. I donā€™t even really like Here There be Gerblins all that much, and yet here I am. Oh well, the art was amazing, and of course I already knew the story. But it was kind of hilarious to see the name changes they had to make to some of the characters and places. I was a little disappointed that the ending was so rushed, and we donā€™t really spend time around the moon base before The Director is in our face changing the Lunar Interlude parts but whatever. 10 dead gerblins/10
The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken
When a disease that only affects children kills off nearly all the kids on the planet, the survivors are left with supernatural powers and are taken away to concentration camps in order to ā€œprotectā€ the public. Iā€™ve been wanting to read this for a long time, and since the movie just came out I thought it was the perfect time. This is one of those books that some people adore and some people hate. I thought it was just okay. For everything that I didnā€™t like, there was something to make up for it. Personally, I felt that Bracken focused on the wrong part of the story. Everything takes place years after this disease has come, and I think it would have been more interesting to see everything from the childrenā€™s points of view when this disease was first starting. I would focus on each different character as a child and how they wound up in their respective camps. Oh well, thereā€™s way too many pros and cons Ā that I could delve into, but you like the YA dystopian genre then I say go for it. I didnā€™t like it enough to read the other two books (not yet anyway). 7/10
TV Shows!
Camp Camp
You know how there are summer camps that specialize in science, or acting, or space, or whatever? Yeah Camp Camp is about a summer camp that throws literally everything you can think of into one summer camp. If you donā€™t believe me, just listen to the theme song. Seriously though this is one of the best shows Iā€™ve watched all year, but boy howdy this is not one for young children. Itā€™s like Gravity Falls and Rick and Morty had a baby! Anyway, the characters are both surprising and hilarious. David the camp counselor (voiced by Miles Luna) is genuinely likable when you think heā€™d be the most annoying person on the planet, and the kids are so accurate itā€™s scary. Also Yuri Lowenthal is in it. And Griffin McElroy has a recurring role where he plays A GHOST! Iā€™ve never been into Rooster Teeth stuff, but they have a winner with this one. 10/10
Tumblr media
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel
After her husband leaves her, Midge Maisel gets super drunk, goes on stage, and gives a hilarious rant about her relationship at a small comedy/talent club and somehow gets sucked into becoming a rising comedian as a woman in the 1950s. Itā€™s good. Great acting pretty funny, but Midge and her agent/manager Susie are the only likable characters. Everyone else just kind of...sucks 8/10
Voltron Season 7 (spoilers)
Okay, I know everyone had mixed feelings about this season, but I did come out liking a lot of it. It had a lot of flaws (I really thought it would be Shiroā€™s season, and man was I wrong), but this is the sort of thing we canā€™t really judge until the last episode of the series is finished. I like to think of the positives: the action was amazing as usual, HUNK IS GETTING MORE AND MORE DEVELOPMENT EVERY SEASON, I refuse to believe the team introduced Adam just to have him killed off immediately so heā€™s still alive in my mind, we get to see everyoneā€™s reunions with their families, the lost in space episode was cool, and say what you want about the game show episode, but I loved it! There were a lot of good things so it was easier for me to look past the...not so great aspects of the season. 7/10
Galavant
A musical comedy mini series involving a renowned medieval hero named Galavant on a quest to rescue his ex girlfriend from her ā€œevilā€ husband King Richard. But maybe she doesnā€™t want to be rescued. Well, thatā€™s just the first season. Itā€™s best to go in knowing as little as possible. I remember liking it when it first came out, and itā€™s still pretty cute...but sometimes I feel like itā€™s trying too hard. A lot of the music isnā€™t really...memorable, but the characters are likable so itā€™s still worth the watch. 8/10
Disenchantment
Speaking of medieval comedies...Princess Bean doesnā€™t want to get married, mystical elf Elfo doesnā€™t want to live in an enchanted forest where everyone is happy all the time, and Beanā€™s personal demon Luci just wants to watch people suffer. Honestly, I wasnā€™t very into this show at first, but something compelled me to just keep watching, and by the end I was totally into it! This is one of those shows where you think there isnā€™t going to be a plot, but then the last few episodes come up and smack you in the face! 7.5/10
Tumblr media
Round Planet
A documentary parody...mockumentary...satire...Thatā€™s really not a great way to describe it. Itā€™s a nature documentary with funny commentary. I like nature shots and animals so I liked it, but thereā€™s a lot of tangents and running jokes and British references that sometimes donā€™t land. Oh well, if you like unconventional documentaries, just watch it. 8/10
Honorable Mentions
DnDnD: I donā€™t think Iā€™ve ever talked about this podcast before, but thereā€™s a DnD podcast made by Practical Folks (aka the Drunk Disney youtube channel). Itā€™s pretty good! I want an Adventure Zone crossover now!
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: Every time I think Iā€™m out, it pulls me back in. I finally got the DLC and spent most of this month playing this freaking game AGAIN!
The Heathers soundtrack: I finally listened to the Heathers musical soundtrack...and I didnā€™t love it. There are some good songs in it, but overall Iā€™m unimpressed. And I never could really get into the plot, Iā€™ve always thought it was really weird and over dramatic.
Legendary by Stephanie Garber: Iā€™m about halfway through this book, which is the second in the Caraval series. And itā€™s pretty good! More on that next month.

D&D ask 1-20 :3c
@bladekurodaā€‹ sent me all 20 as well BUT IM GONNA CHOOSE YOURS HUEHUEHUE
1. What was the first race you ever played as?Ā 
A half-elf! I kept it safe and played as Chel.
2. What was the first class you ever played as?
This is a fun story. So I would have done rogue but SOMEONE had already taken rogue so instead I went with ranger. Then I multiclassed into rogue.Ā 
3. Have you ever been dungeon master?Ā 
Yes! Iā€™m more often a DM than I am a player. I actually DMā€™d first before I played.
4. How many times have you been dungeon master?
Umm I have one campaign thatā€™s been going for about 2.5 years now, one campaign that has been going for about a year and several miscellaneous one-shots in between. So ā€¦ lots!
5. What is your favorite race?
Thatā€™s so tough th-
YUAN-TI PUREBLOODS
(I also like aasimar, tieflings and elves. I want to play more dwarves!)
6. What is your favorite class?
clerics clerics clericsĀ 
bards and fighters can come too but CLERICS!
7. When was the last time you played d&d?
Uhhh tuesday I think?
8. Do you prefer theater of the mind or minis and grids?
I think dnd 5e is really dependent on distance within battles so I like maps and minis for battlesĀ but I like theatre of the mind for EVERYTHING else. Like, as few maps as possible is great but every once in a while terrain gets too difficult to describe without a map I think.
Ā 9. What is the funniest thing anyone has ever said in a d&d session youā€™ve played in?
Oh gosh. Thereā€™s so many! I think all of my campaigns have their really great moments that probably wonā€™t make sense to the outside reader butĀ ā€œgrandma soupā€Ā ā€œpurple is a good color right?ā€ ā€œnot weird, just differentā€ andĀ ā€œbone sackā€ are all pretty good contenders. That and pretty much anything that comes out of Lukeā€™s mouth.Ā 
10. What is the most annoying thing that has happened during a d&d session youā€™ve played in?
Umm I wonā€™t say as a player, but as a DM sometimes I get frustrated when notes donā€™t hit the way I want them to. Like I feel guilty that Iā€™m not doing a great job pretty much at all times.Ā 
11. What is your favorite edition of d&d?Ā 
Iā€™ve only played dnd 5e so probably that, but I gotta say 2nd edition had some really cool modules.
12. What is your favorite 5e book?Ā 
Curse of Strahd next question.
13. How many d&d characters have you made?
Uhhhh ā€¦ itā€™s tough cause some of them where characters I roleplayed before dnd, but ā€¦ somewhere around 15 if we include one shots? Infinite if we include npcs Iā€™ve made up on the fly. Recently did a picture of my most active characters!
Tumblr media
14. What is the longest d&d campaign you have ever been part of?Ā 
My homebrew campaign that Iā€™ve been running since I started playing. Itā€™s 2.5 yrs old! (and at the rate we play, never going to end haha)
15. What is your favorite weapon?Ā 
I am a big fan of looking at the book and goingĀ ā€œmmmm, noā€ and making my own weapons w/ book stats. Big fan of dual wielding sickles though. I also like brass knuckles whenever possible.Ā 
16. What is your favorite spell?
ALL SPELLS ARE GOOD SPELLS. Command tends to be really fun and versatile though. Zone of Truth & Calm Emotions are also fun. Oh and Fear! Okay thereā€™s a lot of them.
17. What is your favorite armor?
I like anything mythril. Just makes me feel extra ~fantasy~ and silly, which is fun.
18. What level do you usually start your players at?
Level 3+ if itā€™s a one shot, but if itā€™s a major campaign I like some of those lower levels as a way for characters to flesh out and get to know one another. I try not to stick on them for too long though.Ā 
19.What level do you as a player prefer to start as?Ā 
Whatever the DM tells me to put on my sheet.Ā 
20. Do you like to play in big or small groups?Ā 
I like a group of 5 honestly. I think itā€™s just the right amount of people where there arenā€™t awkward silences, but you also arenā€™t talking over each other. Plus odd numbers mean decisions can be made with a tiebreaker.

I have such a hard time telling people I've know for ages that I'm nonbinary. Like my best friend from high school knows I'm pan (even tho that was only recently, she thought i was bi lol). Other friends from high school it's the same thing. I can gush about my girlfriend all night but idk how to talk about my pronouns or even open that discussion.
But with new people I've met? Like, wham. Right of the bat. New dnd group? "Yeah I'm nonbinary! They/them or she/her works!"
Reuniting with old internet friends? Friend comes out as nonbinary? Me too bud! Holy shit!!
And new people I've met online I'm just like hey yeah! It's me, ur nonbinary pal Chel!!
Coworkers r different but like..... Why is it so hard telling my old friends about this facet of myself? I just don't know how to broach this. It's not bad, cause like.... I don't mind she/her being used for me. It's more sharing the knowledge of who i am. And it's more difficult than i imagined

All the things you reblog about dnd make it seem so cool and fun! But,, I don't have anyone I could play with and have no idea where to start
Have any tips on how to start? And if there's a way to play without meeting up in person?
Hi anon!!! Honestly, finding people to play with is possibly the hardest part of dnd, hehe. That and getting schedules to line up. (I got really lucky with my current campaigns; my bf is always ready for dnd, and some idle discussion about dnd on a discord server led to my other campaign!)
So, uh, I guess these are Chelā€™s (not-so) Hot Tips For Dnd! Or any ttrpg really cause like. There are SO MANY out there that deserve some love :3 (apologies for potential lack of coherence it is like 11pm where Iā€™m at so Iā€™m SLEEPY)
Okay so for starters weā€™re answering out of order but: Iā€™ve actually been in only one campaign that met up in person! Most of my dnd experience has been virtual, whether over discord voice chat (several old campaigns) or zoom (my paladinā€™s campaign) or just a regular old text channel (my bardā€™s campaign). There are plenty of options for it if you canā€™t meet in person or just would prefer not to; actually, doing it virtually makes things a LOT easier in terms of getting a party together. Hell, you could even trash the whole ā€œschedules lining upā€ part of it and just make it a play-by-post situation a la regular old RP. Iā€™ve had a few campaigns that did that! (Rip telecodnd which I think is TECHNICALLY just on a really long hiatus but)
Dnd is becoming semi-cool nowadaysā€”thank you actual play podcasts!ā€”so odds are that any nerd-adjacent community youā€™re involved with has at least one person with dnd experience and a couple others who would be interested. Other than that, I believe there are discord servers and the like dedicated to helping people find folks interested in a campaign, but I donā€™t personally have experience with those so I canā€™t really speak to that.
Hardest or second-hardest aspect of getting a campaign together: figuring out whoā€™s running it, honestly. DMing is hard; I have a little bit of experience with it in dnd and there are so many things to keep track of, but if someone in your potential group has some Cool Story Ideas in mind and the patience to herd three to six players, it might be for them! And if youā€™re lacking in Cool Story Ideas, god knows there are plenty of adventure modules online that you can run.
Speaking of which, you can find pretty much everything you need online without having to buy a single book. PIRATING IS YOUR FRIEND, REALLY. Wizards of the Coast is owned by hasbro they earn enough.
Talk about expectations and things before you start playing!!!! Stuff like topics you donā€™t want addressed, preferred roleplay-versus-just-monster-hunting, etc etc. itā€™ll save you a LOT of problems in the long run.
If you wanna get a feel for how dnd works ahead of time, there are plenty of podcasts available featuring people playing it! Critical Role is pretty well known and has plenty of material to work with, The Adventure Zone is generally sillier but shows off how Fucking Weird you can get with it (note; this is specifically about the Balance arc, I havenā€™t listened to the rest yet and I know that the second season actually isnā€™t dnd at all!), and Dimension 20 uses dnd to get REALLY neat with settings and concepts. And there are plenty more out there that Iā€™m not familiar with!
Honestly just mucking around with character concepts ahead of time. Get weird with it!
Anyone who says youā€™re ā€˜playing wrongā€™ is a jerk.

A3! WIP list
Considering I have more than one bigger project planned for this fandom I should probablyā€¦.do thisā€¦
My policy with the dq one states I only put longer wips downā€”chaptered fic and/or series, specificallyā€”so that is also the case here, though I will put one shitposty au that I may or may not get around to writing.
Definitely being written:
untitled problem children fic: (longfic) if I had a nickel for every time I gave Tsuzuru a semi-major crisis over a dramatic misunderstanding of the concept of fate, I would have two (2) nickels, which isnā€™t a lot butā€” (I have had this story idea since 2015 and I am ASTOUNDED that I could make this work for these three with minimal effort. How. HOW.)
untitled college theater au: (longfic + series?) or, ā€œchel got a degree in this shit so they are using it to come up with cool situations for their fictional character dollhouseā€. Basically all the y2 college kids are theater majors and the adults are their teachers (and the middle-to-high-schoolers somehow got drafted into the Juza Hyodo Fanclub). The longfic is some kinda juban slow burn onesided-rivals-to-lovers hell and the series part is because I just know itā€™s gonna spiral out of control send help
company cryptid Tsuzuru AU: currently untitled wholeass ā€œsituation swapā€ series where most characters have the same backstory, just a different time of entry into Mankai, (usually) a different troupe, and a slightly-tweaked issue. affectionately called ā€œcompany cryptid tsuzuru AUā€ because tsuzuru starts off secretly living in the dorms so he doesnā€™t have to pay rent. this is a serious series.
Beyond the Sea (waiting for me): (wholeass au series) Main fic (Anchors): Prince Citron of the underwater kingdom of Zafra is transformed into a human to escape would-be assassins, but to stay he must find something to ā€œtetherā€ him to the surface; he sets his sights on Itaru, one of the four princes of the kingdom of Mankai. Meanwhile, his attendant Guy meets a poet in the royal court and kickstarts a search for his own origins. (Or; a Citoita little mermaid au with some background Homare/guy that spiraled wildly out of control). Other entries: just other stuff in that universe, or what happens when chel thinks too hard about an AU.
Finished:
A3! Rarepair Week 2021: (collection/self-imposed challenge) Set of seven eight (oops) fics following the guidelines set out here, with the added self-imposed caveat that I can only use one ship per character. Gotta figure out how to write ā€˜em all somehow.
theyā€™re idiots, your honor: theoretically complete currently tsuzukazu-centric theoretically canon-compliant series where they are just. So dumb. (I say ā€œcurrentlyā€ tsuzukazu-centric because a) there are other dumbasses at Mankai and b) it might not stay just tsuzukazu? No promises though.)
God only knows about this category:
Mankai TTRPG AU: mostly a bunch of shitposty stuff about autumn starting a dnd game and the rest of Mankai getting caught up in ttrpg hell. Is this an excuse to talk about non-dnd ttrpgs? Yeah.
Right Blooms, Wrong Season: (series) A roleswap of sorts in which Izumi and Matsukawa stumble upon Juza and the canonical Autumn Troupe first, effectively swapping them with Spring Troupe. Juza and Taichi in particular are living their best lives. Tsuzuru accidentally acquired a fanclub in Mankai before even joining and he is Suffering. (in this section because of the other roleswap)

šŸ–Š it's Goswin lovin' hours
Itā€™s ALWAYS Goswin loving hours here at thechavanator dot tumblr dot com, because this child has claimed ownership of my heart. (Have I mentioned that heā€™s on the shortlist of replacement PCs in my biweekly dnd group? (Not shards, Terra will die over my dead body))
Hell doc has been EXTREMELY educational in writing Goswin, it seems; despite being incredibly nervous at most times (unless he is very comfortable around whoever heā€™s talking to), heā€™s actually surprisingly rational when it comes to romantic stuff?
Speaking personally, I always tended to assume ā€œoh well no one would EVER be interested in meā€ until mister Chelā€™s very obvious interest in me clocked me in the face, but Goswin is really observant (researcher) and is a lot more able to pick up on stuff like that:
1-bun: WAIT HANG ON no oh-he-canā€™t-like-me-back spiral????
gos-lose: i have eyes, dear, and Iā€™ve learned enough from dating you and erik to know when its reciprocated
gos-lose: also i love you dearly but it is very easy to be less oblivious than you

Okay more info now that Iā€™m back in my room
Apparently he had a plan. He repeatedly told me he knew when/where he wanted to propose.
This was not the plan.
Apparently at some point this morningā€”deeply hilarious to me cause I had a nasty migraine all through breakfastā€”he just felt that the time was right and he should propose
He talked to my mom at SOME point, I think when I was grabbing celebration buttons for our upcoming anniversary
He asked my dad for my hand WHILE WE WERE IN LINE FOR SPACE FUCKING MOUNTAIN.
MY MOTHER, THE ABSOLUTE ICON, DISTRACTED ME SO I HAD NO FUCKING IDEA WHAT WAS HAPPENING BEHIND ME
She and I went looking for a backpack and apparently while he was grabbing that he bought a ring, yes AT THE PARK it wasnā€™t very expensive he assured me that. (We think its cubic zirconia? This is a-okay with me, fuck the diamond industry.)
He says heā€™s still going to get me ā€œthe ring [i] deserveā€, I say as soon as that thing is properly sized heā€™s not getting it back. Did you SEE that the setting is shaped like a CROWN that is WAY too cool to swap out for something else.
So weā€™re watching the fireworks. My parents are adamant that we ensure we have ā€œenoughā€ space.
I sense nothing strange about this.
Dad is recording the fireworks. He frequently turns around.
I SENSE NOTHING STRANGE ABOUT THIS.
Mister chel starts singing along with A Whole New World. Heā€™s squeezing my hand so tight I suspect he might break it.
My actual honest to god thought process: ā€œokay honey I love you but ow. Wait why are you sinking whatā€™s happeningā€”ā€
I enter a state of shock that lasts a solid three hours.
I think someone else caught it on video. There is a non zero chance my Too Old comfort hoodie is gonna be floating around social media.
My parents suggested we re-enact it and get a Disney photographer to take pics. EVERYONE AROUND US CLAPS AND CHEERS. I crave death. (But lovingly.)
While we are in line for pics I send ring pics to our dnd campaign. Two of our friends video call us SCREAMING.
I think weā€™re now obligated to use September by Earth Wind and Fire as our wedding song.
Okay I donā€™t think anyone on here would have means to blab to fam and also if you did, like, why Would You, so

Who do you think would have done that whole 'oh hey I'm bleeding' or 'best not let them know about that little scrape' thing out of all your OC's?
(In reference to this post)
ā€˜Oh hey Iā€™m bleedingā€™: I feel like Fyf actually did do this once? Aside from them, Smiley and ƕe are both likely to do this
ā€˜Best not to let them knowā€™: W i l v e r, and honestly Alex and Callie too
