cat's outta the bag, lando norris

summary: after lando's win with y/n back in the mclaren garage, fans now have to go back to getting used to not seeing the actress and the driver together anymore... or not.

warnings: the 'monaco may gala' is made up, as everyone would've guessed. and i think that's it really.

this is part 2 to ideal weekend requested by @maysofi and @nan-lzzn. not sure if it's just me not knowing how to work tumblr or what but i couldn't reply to your comments /: but here you go!! hope it lives up to your guys' expectations x

THE END ❤️

[doodledrawsthings]

Opinions on the Sols from Nine Sols immediately. Please. Your au is delish.

Keep in mind these are my very off-the-top-of-my-head, surface level impressions of them after having recently beaten the game on story mode once, while streaming. I won’t be giving any deep analysis or anything lol so the tone will be pretty jokey and unserious.

MAJOR major Nine Sols spoilers under the cut. Please do not read if you haven’t finished the game.

Kuafu: second favorite character. I love him so much. He’s such a pal, everybody likes him. Hou Yi left him as the final sun standing after shooting down the other nine cuz he’s just a stand up guy. The fact that he’s the one who pled keep Abacus around and set his settings to High Sympathy and kept coming in to talk to him out of guilt over what happened to Yi kills me. Smart, silly, handsome, the last remaining Solarian in existence and he can never go home for the remainder of his life. He’s my ride or die bestie, he’s one of my several husbands who babysit my little brother while I go off on a revenge murder spree and I’m kissing him on the mouth.

Goumang: I like her design and concepts and think she’s a fun character. She was the first boss I fought and i thought she was pretty fun, though I didn’t find the fight as memorable as others. I wish she had more presence throughout the game, I heard from a friend she had some more stuff that was cut apparently? Curious about her rivalry with Yi and relationship with Eigong. And since Yi technically never killled her I’ve considered including her in the Dont Worry About It AU.

Yanlao: Grampa!! I think he and Yi’s back and forth throughout the warehouse area was pretty funny. I was so ready to kick his ass the entire time, especially after the segment where he’s shooting at you as you navigate a maze. Loved his bossfight, first fight of the first three i started with where I really felt the parry/dodge/attack rhythm for the first time. Rip gramps.

Jiequan: BASTARD!! (Half-affectionate but only half) he’s giving Fruity Disney Villain Who Flirts With You As He Stabs You In The Chest. He sucks <3 but he’s such a FUN character, what a great antagonist. His fake out fight is so intense, the prison scene is so intense, his boss fight kicked my ass and his theme goes hard. He’s a war criminal, he’s a freak, he looks like All Might MHA and he regularly irradiates himself as part of his body building routine. “Heroes are forged in agony!” 10/10 Disney villain, very stylish. Defeating him was so satisfying especially after the Kanghui fight in the prison and learning what happened with THAT horror show.

Lady Ethereal: I LOVE HER!! SO MUCH!!! UGH!!! she makes me so sad! But everything about her is SO cool! Her fate! Her backstory!! Her design! Her boss fight! Her entire platforming area!!! Just!!! Aah! I won’t say too much but it’s just so good she had my favorite fight in the game, the dance for that one is so much fun. I was streaming the game on discord for my partner and another friend and when we first went into the cortex, she was like “oh you should keep going left and see what’s over there ;)” and then I did and just!!! So cool that Red Candle started off making horror games, it’s really great. Love it. Awesome character, awesome boss, awesome theme.

Fuxi and Nuwa: Rich asshole twins!! These two suck lol but I do think they’re fun characters. The entire empyrean district is experiencing a resident evil style zombie infection and Nuwa is throwing a rager at the club for the rich cryosleepers only. It’s really eerie over there though, I love the vibe of the east side and the discovery of the mutants and destruction of the west half is spooky as hell. And then I got to the area where you get Fuxi’s sol seal and didn’t even notice he was sitting there until my partner pointed him out. I thought he was furniture lol. She’s really puppeting around her brother’s pustule-riddled zombie corpse Weekend at Bernie’s style cuz she’s that much in denial. Also absolutely horrifying that the district supposedly once held 100,000 sleeping solarians that is whittled down to 300 after the mutated virus wreaks havoc through the area. Personally, I’m mixed on their bossfight, the first half with just Fuxi was fun once I got the rhythm but the 2nd half when Nuwa comes in with her attacks gets a bit too chaotic for me. Their boss theme, however, is probably my favorite in the game. I love the opera samples, it’s so cool.

Ji: I think about them a lot. Like, wow what a guy. I think a lot about his immortality, and that if he had not left Penglai with the council he would have been stuck there, alone for eternity. I think about the fact that because they will never get Tianhuo, there would be no need for them to be in cryosleep, which probably means that in the 502 years that Yi was recovering, he was probably up and about the entire time, probably wandering around new Kunlun mostly alone. I wonder if they ever hung out with the dusk guardians, or if they just stayed in the grotto for the most part. Their boss fight felt the most like a dance to me, or like friends sparring. Do you think they thought of Lear as you attacked them with the moves he taught you in the spiritual realm? He makes me sad, but he is very stylish!

Eigong: FUCK HER! SHES SO COOL, BUT FUCK HER!!! EVIL GRANDMA! this games story is like peeling back an onion of horrors where each layer you peel back brings new, mortifying understanding of the situation at large until it ALL. COMES BACK. TO HER! AND HER FRUITLESS PURSUIT OF IMMORTALITY! Her boss fight KICKED MY ASS. I was streaming my first playthrough, so I was already prone to doing worse than I probably would without an audience (emphasis on probably) but in my first attempt I was fighting her for like 6 HOURS STRAIGHT. And for the true ending too, which meant three boss phases. I just could not get her pattern down and my hands were cramping but i really wanted to finish the game that weekend so I could finally talk about it so I ended up turning up the accessibility options to one punch man her. I did eventually go back and do her fight by myself with the story mode settings and MAN what a fun boss battle once you get the dance down (I’m still so bad at unbound counter), and it is SO satisfying to beat. Incredible character, we love fictional old women who commit atrocities in the name of science.

Yi: and finally we have the man, the myth, the legend. I could probably write a whole separate post about him and Heng and his relationships with the other characters but to keep it short- I LOVE HIM SO MUCH! BUT IM ALSO BITING HIM AND PUTTING HIM IN A BLENDER AND RUNNING HIM THROUGH THE DISHWASHER AND HANGING HIM UP TO DRY. Just UGH! It’s not common for the main character of a thing to be my favorite character but Yi is my favorite character. It’s the fact that he is his own character, and we, the player, must gradually find out things that HE already knows. And his budding and flowering relationships with the other characters, especially those who set up shop in the pavillion which leads into his character development is just AUGH. AND THE ENDINGS. YOU ALREADY KNOW HOW I FEEL ABOUT GHE ENDINGS. THEYRE GOOD BUT AUGH. I love him, I’m rotating him in my mind on a skewer, he’s my little manlet, my poor little “I’m not a good person” shadow the hedgehog energy meow meow cat boy. I love him so much, I’m so distraught over his terrible life choices. Incredible character.

Ok hope that was entertaining to read, bye.

I Got Your Back

Eugene Roe x GN!Reader

Warnings! Alcohol consumption, harassment, blood, mild violence, swearing, mild injury, my attempt at writing lol, I’m really hoping I got all the big stuff

This is based only off the tv series and I intend no offense to the real men of Easy Company or any veterans

Sorry if this is bad! I had such bad block while writing this and for some reason it’s taken me like 4 months to complete this short little thing😭 anyways I’m hoping it’s not horrible!

Also this was written for @executethyself35! Thank you so much for being so amazing and I’m so so sorry this has taken 5 and 1/2 years lol You’re amazing and literally the best <3

The bar was loud and stuffy and crowded, but it was fully of paratroopers, what did you expect? You were sat at a little round table, crowed with too many men; most now at least tipsy and all thourally enjoying the rare weekend pass that Sobel didn't take from them.

"You need another drink?" Eugene barely had to lean over in his chair to reach your ear due to the cramped situation that was your table.

"Oh, yeah. I'll get 'em this time, you got the last ones." You told him turning towards the medic sat next you, your noses nearly touching, and you had to almost lean back to stop yourself from bumping into him.

"No, I ain't gonna make you do that." He began to reach for your now empty glass but you quickly stopped his hand from fully grasping the cup.

"Please, I've gotta spend all this extra paratrooper money," you joked, pushing his hand away and giving it a quick squeeze. You quickly stood and grabbed his mug, not giving him a chance to object.

You had made it hardly 6 feet away from the occupied table, through the impossibility close crowd, when an unknown man had stepped into your path. You had attempted to step around him but it was no use, this man was a wall unwilling to move.

"I'm sorry is there a chance you could move please?" If he wasn't going to read your very obviously uninterested body language then he could hopefully read you as equally uninterested lips.

"Now how about I don't do that and instead take you home?" He was handsome in his own way, he definitely wasn't ugly but was certainly not your type.

"Oh no thank you, I'm just trying to get a couple of drinks for me and friend." You again tried to step around him but he kept moving in a step in front of you. You looked around hoping to catch someone's eye but for how many people were the damn bar you couldn't seem to catch the eye of a single you knew. "I'd really appreciate it if you just let me get my drink."

"How about if I let you get your drink, you'll owe me a drink." He was smirking to himself like this normally worked for him, intimidating people into dancing and sleeping with him. Now that you thought about it, maybe he wasn't just not your type; maybe he just wasn't everybody's type so he had to resort to this sad creepy behavior that definitely was getting him nowhere.

"They don't owe you a damned thing." The familiar Cajun accented voice had reached your ears before you were even aware he was nearby. "How about you get a move on now and we'll all have just a fine and dandy of the night."

"I don't think so no." This man was either the biggest piece of shit or was denser than fuck and you were certain it was the former. Before you could think of a response he had grabbed your arm and began trying to pull you away. As if it were second nature you took the glass in your hand and brought down hard on his hand.

The glass shattered. Pieces flying in all directions but most of the pieces finding their home in the back of the man's hand.

"You fucking whore!" He had quickly ripped his hand away cradled it in his other hand.

"I'm the whore here? I'm not sure what Not want to have sex with you makes me a whore but if it means you'll leave me alone then I'll make it a badge wear it on my uniform." You weren't sure where this attitude was coming from and you had nothing else to blame it on than your last few drinks and the current adrenaline racing through your veins.

The man was still standing there dumbstruck when you turned around to find Gene standing there. His eyes scanned across your face before leaping down the arm the man had just grabbed you by.

His eyebrows furrowed and his eyes became increasingly more concerned when he noticed the cuts on my arm from a few stray pieces of glass. His eyes flicked back to yours.

“I’ll getcha patched up.” He hadn’t left any room for argument but you might as well try.

“I’m alright, it’s nothing I can’t handle on my own.” But by the time the reply had left your lips Eugene already had your hand in his and was walking towards the door.

“You can’t just leave them glass pieces in, it’ll never get better.”

“Fine, I’ll take your word for it.” Why complain when the most attractive man you’ve ever met was asking to take care of you. Only an idiot would pass that up.

Cool dark of outside was a welcome change from the stuffy pub and you relished in it, not having had a break from the heat of George in a while.

“I’m sorry.” His voice was just a low rumble and you weren’t sure if you were imagining it.

“What?”

“I’m sorry,” he had now turned around and faced you, still holding your hand. “I shoulda gone with you to get drinks and I shoulda done more. I just-“ He ran his other hand over his face before rubbing the back of his neck.

“Gene, you have nothing the apologize for. I was the one who insisted I get the drinks, I was the one who couldn’t get myself out of the situation. It’s on me, not you.” You gave his hand a squeeze and his arm a little tug, causing him to finally look at you after staring at this boots this whole time. “But none of that matters anymore, he’s gone and now there’s nothing to worry about.”

“What about your arm? I can’t let you just ignore it.” He was looking at you with such concern and care and all you could do was stare. Yeah staring is rude but how could you not? His short hair was sticking up in different places from him running his hands through it and the light from the bar was casting a beautiful glow that made his eyes sparkle in a way you never saw them before.

He was gorgeous. Not that you’d never noticed this before, but the realization hit you like a truck and it completely stole your breath; he stole your breath.

“Ma joie?” His voice brought you back, a flush spreading across your face.

“Huh? Sorry.” You realized you were still holding his hand, and finally let it drop. The warmth of the rough skin of his was quickly wicked away by the night air.

“Where’d you go?” He was looking at you like you mattered, like you were more than a body. More than a number. More than the shell that Sobel had been working you down to.

“Sorry… um just distracted. What were you saying?”

“I was asking if you need help with your arm.” His eyes left yours to flick down to the still bloody and leaky cut of your arm.

“Oh. I can handle it on my own.” You were kicking yourself the moment the words left your mouth. The best man you’ve ever met wants to take care of you, and you can’t seem to let him.

“I really was just askin’ to be nice but there’s no way I’m letting you take care of this yourself. And I’m especially not letting you make your way back to base when filth like him are around.”

“I can hold my own, I was just wasn’t trying to make a scene in there.” You didn’t know why you kept making these excuses for him to leave you. You didn’t want him to walk away, every bit of yourself wanted to jump on him but a bit of you was too scared of just a little bit of rejection to have him just patch you up.

“I’m not doubting that you could but I am worried you might be a little drunk and that if I don’t help you get that arm cleaned up you’ll be nice and infected in a week.” He had a point, a good point he made a few times now. And what is there to be scared of with him. Eugene Roe is quite possibly one of the kindest most caring people you know what is there to be worried about, if you messed up and made a move he would react completely responsibly.

But for some reason you kept fighting it.

“I just don’t want to be a bother. Go have fun, Gene, I didn’t mean to upturn the night. I’m sure everyone is waiting for you in there.”

“Nope. Not a chance I’m leaving. You’re stuck here with me, and it’s cold and dark so while I’d love to continue this amazing little conversation I really think it might be our best interest to start the trip back to base.”

I was obvious he was done with the back and forth so you let it drop.

—————————

It wasn’t long until you were back where you needed to be. All of the light posts were turned on but no one was out and about save for the few drunk-ish men stumbling from barrack to barrack. Many of the lights to the cabins were on and laughter and conversation could be heard from the people within them.

Gene grabbed your hand and pulled you towards the dark, unlit medic tent. The walk a short and easy trek through the mazes of buildings, as he seemed to know where the tent was and could get you there with his eyes closed walking backwards.

You quietly arrived to the temporary shelter and are met with… nothing. No noise, no startling smell; just more dark. And the awareness that you’re all alone with Eugene.

He continues to tug you over to a table set up in the center of the room. A few crates next to them that he immediately begins to rummage through.

“Can I help with anything?” Your voice cuts through the quiet, just barely above a whisper.

“No, I got it.” He pauses briefly to look at you, never really stopping his hands from sifting through the supplies.

“Eugene, please. I want to help you, how can I help? Even just a little bit, I feel like I’m just in the way.”

“You can help by sitting yourself up on that table there and letting me take care of you. That’s all I ask, that you let someone take care of you; even if it’s just this one time.” His tone was soft, his accent showing through the caring tone. He had grabbed all of the items from the crate and was just staring at you. Looking at you.

Slowly, as if approaching a wild animal, Gene set the supplies on the table and stepped to you. His thighs brushing your knees

Everything about him was stunning. From his heavily disheveled hair all the way down to his spit shined boots, he was perfect.

“I’m sorry.” Your voice had come out uneven and hoarse, barely audible even in the quiet evening.

“What for?”

“You’ve been nothing but kind to me all night and I keep pushing you away. I don’t know why, I think I’m just scared. I mean… we ship off in just a few weeks and then anything could happen. I can’t go getting attached to anyone; especially you.” You averted your gaze to the ground so you wouldn’t have to see his face when he realized what a horrible coward you are.

But, instead of him lashing out and leaving you his hand gently came to your chin, tilting back up, forcing you to look at him again.

“I don’t blame you for that. We’re all terrified, but what’s the point of being here if we’re not going to make the most of it while we can. Why die regrettin’ what’s right in front of you when you all you gotta do is reach a little and grab it. I’m scared that some of the best people I’ve met are not going to come back and I might be included in that but I’m also scared that I’m not gonna take the beautiful opportunity I have right now… with you.” His gaze was soft and gentle. He looked quickly at your lips before taking a small step back. “But I should probably patch you up first.”

“I’m fine.” You grabbed him by the collar of his shirt, pulling him to yourself until your lips met. Eugene didn’t move, he stayed completely still. You quickly pulled away. “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have- I didn’t ask. I just assumed-“

His lips swiftly covered yours. You returning the affection. His lips soft and gentle against yours, still tasting of the ale he left back at the pub.

It was all over before you could completely let yourself get absorbed into him. His soft breaths fanned over your face as his forehead tenderly connected with yours.

“Can I get you fixed up now?” A playful glint in his eye, and a blush so bright you could still see it in the dark, adorned his face.

“I suppose I’ll allow it.” Your smile morphing into a smirk.

He picked up a pair of tweezers, from the pile he had set next to you, pinching them at you jokingly.

“Let me know if I hurt you.” He gently grabbed your arm by the elbow and maneuvered it to where he needed it. The contact from him, although little, had a fresh blush creep up your neck.

“I’m sure that I’ll be fine.”

You soon learned that was not true. Once he had gotten all of the biggest pieces out of your arm, his search for the tinier shards started. You tried to muffle your winces but everyone he’d stop and wait until your face had returned to neutral.

“Ma joie, please let me know when I hurt you. I don’t have much left to get but I hate to be hurting you, so let me know so I can stop it.” Gene had set down the tweezers so he could hold your hands.

“I’m not hurting. I’m completely fine.” Your lie was obvious but he was doing enough for you already that why would you interrupt his process just because you’re not completely comfortable.

“Alright then.” He picked the tweezers up again and got the last few pieces out, still pausing whenever you flinched a little too hard. He then proceeded to do the most gentle cleaning and wrapping ever performed in history. He rinsed out the area, dabbing away all the water like if he pressed too hard your arm would fall off. Then he wrapped it all up in a sterile bandage, asking if it was too tight every two wraps around your bicep. “All done!”

You went to slide off the table but his hands held you in place. “I thought we were done?” He just stared, emotion clear in his eyes.

“Can I kiss you again?” You surprised yourself with the question. You had been thinking the thought since it happened the first time just 30 minutes before.

“Of course you can.” His hands came up to your face, cupping your cheeks and lead you together.

I was the same but different from the first kiss. This one wasn’t hesitant or awkward as you tried to find your placement, you meshed perfectly. Your lips moving over each others in perfect harmony. Little puffs of air from his nose tickling your lashes, and the way he smiled into the kiss had you melting into his hands.

Your arms went up his chest to his shoulders, stopping to loop around his neck; your fingers curling slightly into his hair. All of Eugene was surrounding you, his smell, his taste, his entire presence was all you could comprehend in the moment.

He eventually pulled away, breathing heavy. Eyes slowly opening back up to look into yours.

“Thank you.” You don’t know why you said it. You were saying for the man that left you alone when he arrived. You were saying it for the bandage snuggly tied around your bicep. You were saying it for the breath taking kiss you just had. But most of all you were saying it for the man that was going to be there for you in every moment he could be.

“I got your back; through it all.” He squeezed your hips, his eyes never leaving yours.

“And I yours.”

her youtube history was wild😞😞 30 hours of devon aoki edits saved 

so when she got invited to a race by one of her friends when she was a junior for her birthday she almost passed out 

the screech of the tires on the pavement and smell of gas gave her heart eyes

she swore she was going to participate in a race after they both left that night

SIKE she thought everyone laughed at her when she showed up the next day in her dads beaten up family van LMFAO 

the bullying was devious fr😞 she cried a little when she got home

but ofc her friend helped her ass out and high jacked his brothers old nissan

but that doesn’t mean ellie can’t peep every once in a while😛😛 that ass is still fat as fuck regardless of the beef >:)

How do teenager alphas and omegas deal with their heat/ruts while they are in highschool? Do they have to go into segregatted classes temporally to avoid problems or they just take surpressants? Do the highschools also teach sexuaI education and self-control so they don't depend 100% on the supressants? I mean, depending on how frequent their heats/ruts are, if they stayed home every time they have it their academic results would go downhill, but on the other hand if the highschool let them to get all horny during classes everything would be a disaster LOL

In my au, heats/ruts aren't sexual until about 18, at which point most kids are done with high school. But even then, it's low level, not very fantastical.

As the individual gets older and becomes more sexually experienced, that layer of the heat/rut becomes more prominent.

Teaching sex ed is extremely important, I'd imagine it isn't taboo nor is it something teachers gloss over due to the high fertility of alphas/omegas during those periods (even if they are mating with a beta, so it does effect everyone).

For au's that do use sexualized heats/ruts for high schoolers, I'd say there would be medication for it. Perhaps not a true suppresant, but a Dampner, which works in your brain like a painkiller except it targets arousal instead.

Sex Ed in these aus would be similar and would also focus heavily on consent and would talk about how to know if you are in the right headspace/or your partner is in the right headspace to give consent. Being on a heat/rut would not be the right headspace unless you've talked about it prior to the event, at length and detail, and you have boundaries in place. It is never polite to just ravish someone because you're feeling it, I'd like to imagine both in my au and others, laws surrounding sexual assault are much stricter.

It's important to note that you don't just blackout when you go into a heat/rut. Being in a heat/rut makes you more aroused, but like hypnotism - it can't make you do something you would never ever do otherwise. Same goes for being around someone who is in heat/rut and inhaling their pheromones. That can't make you do anything you wouldn't normally do.

There wouldn't be many high schoolers actually engaging with each other during heats/ruts - and when it did happen it would be just the week's drama. Ex: ""Did you hear James and Lily did it over the weekend when she was in heat?" "Yeah I know! I never pegged them the types." "Wonder if they'll bond one another after graduation then."" You'd also probably get the sense while in high school that "everybody is doing it!" but when you grew up and looked back, you'd realize absolutely nobody was doing it because it was insane.

Reader POV:

Many years later,...

"Princess?" Simon called from across the front yard, scanning the area for any sign of you. "Where are you hiding?"

After all these years, he still called you "princess". Others called their other half "babe" or "honey". But you were his little princess and always would be. While you might have grown a bit older, the loving term never did. It made your heart flutter just as strongly as it always had. The only person whose title had changed was his. You still stuck to "Ghost" when you weren't alone. But at your home in the countryside, you only called him Simon. Your Simon.

"I'm over here!" You shouted back from the car port, peeking your head out from behind the bumper of the pickup truck to wave him down.

Simon jogged over to where you sat, hunched over the open hood of an old pickup truck. Your hair was pulled back in a messy ponytail and all manner of car fluids stained your hands.

"What the hell are you doing out here?" He asked, genuinely surprised. "Gave me a real scare when I couldn't find you inside."

"Sorry. I'm just tinkering," you chirped, patting the other half of your work bench. "How was work?"

He happily sank down on the seat beside you, stretching a bit. "Ah, you know. Same old, same old. Rookies who need to slow down and master the basics, veterans that need reminders on how things are done, and the regulars who always manage to get into some kinda trouble no matter what I say. Same story every day without fail."

As much as he complained about it, you knew he loved what he did. Even though he'd stepped down for the taskforce a few years ago, he never really left his training behind. And a local paintball team had practically begged him to step in as their head coach. It was a happy middle ground for both of you though. He got the rush of battlefield strategy and waging war. You got the benefit of him coming back home splattered with brightly colored paint instead of blood. It was a win-win all around.

"Are the guys really going to come buy and show them how the pros do it? Because if they do, I wanna watch."

"Yeah, they should all be coming down next weekend. Figured it'll give them a good bit of fun for once."

You paused, quickly counting on your fingers to do a headcount. "How many am I cooking for again? Well, just tell me who is gonna make it so I can know what to make for everybody."

"Price is definitely coming. Soap said he wouldn't miss this for the whole world. And I just know he's bouncing off the walls with excitement already."

"I have no doubts about that," you laughed, shaking your head. "Please remind him some of these players are kids. The last thing we need is some angry parent mad that he took a mug shot at their little angel."

You could picture the scenario all too easily. Soap crouched behind a corner, smirking mischievously as he waited for an unsuspecting opponent to wander his way. And the second someone did, he'd pop out and send paint pellets splattering across the front of their mask. You could practically hear his raucous laughter just imagining it.

"He'll be fine," Simon huffed, waving his hand. "Don't let his cover fool you. No matter how old he gets, I swear he's just an oversized kid himself by the way he acts sometimes. They'll probably love him the most."

"True. So Price and Soap. Anyone else?"

"Alejandro is still back home visiting his girl, but he said he should make it here just in time. And König and Ida are flying in from overseas to see everyone. Figured we'd make a 141 family reunion out of it."

"König and Königin, you mean."

Simon rolled his eyes at the correction. "Ida, Königin, same difference. Their callsigns are too damn similar and it's confusing."

Though it had been pretty confusing at first, you thought the matching callsigns were adorable. After König had settled down back home, he'd reconnected with an old flame from his special forces days. And when he'd brought her to meet the rest of the team, they lovingly called her Königin. And it made sense why they had. If "König" meant king and she was his partner, it only made sense to give her the German title for queen. It fit her too. Because though she was a force to be reckoned with in the field, Ida carried herself with a soft gracefulness in peacetime. You'd finally gotten to meet her the last time you and Simon had visited his old base. And she was such a sweetheart. The same loving tenderness König exuded was evident in her too. And König looked genuinely happy. He had a new air of peace and calm about him. Even confidence! And you were happy for him too.

Everyone had shown up to their wedding, Soap eager to lead the rowdy reception. She invited you to stand by her side as a part of her bridal party and you happily accepted. And when you and Simon tied the knot a few years afterwards, the whole team regrouped all over again for the celebration. If someone had told you that the gruff, skull-faced lieutenant would one day be your husband, you never would have believed them. And if they had told you König was destined to be his best man, standing by his side for support as he recited his heartfelt vows to you, you would have thought they were insane! But after the dust had settled from when the two of you had parted ways, you and König were quick to resume a close friendship. And when your wedding day arrived, König and Ida were right there by your side to ensure everything was perfect for your special day.

It was always so nice to have everyone back together again. Any excuse to get the family all in one place was never wasted. Though years had spread them all apart distance-wise, their shared bonds continued to remain strong as ever. Like a true family should.

"Hmmm," you pursed your lips, deep in thought. "Maybe I should make something simple that everyone would actually eat. Hot dogs and hamburgers? I'll man the grill!"

"Oh, no you don't," Simon laughed. "You combined with open flame? I don't know if I like the sound of that."

"Aw, come on! I've been working on this truck all afternoon and it's still in one piece!"

Simon tilted his head, studying your work. Though he was hesitant, he couldn't argue with what he saw. Everything you'd done in the engine bay was carried out just as he would have done them himself. Your hands were hopelessly dirty, but your handiwork was impeccable by his standards.

"That's a fair point," he nodded, clearly impressed. "But what made you wanna get your hands dirty with this thing again? You decide to give the old fella another go?"

"Yeah. I really wanna figure him out and finally get him on the road again," you sighed. "After errands, I got a bit restless and wanted something fun to do."

Simon chuckled, a soft smile spreading across his face. "You call this old piece of junk fun?"

"Shhh! Don't say that!" you giggled. "You'll hurt his feelings!"

"He can consider it payback for hurting my feelings all these years. Breaking down at the worst times and all that nonsense. But if he doesn't like it, he's more than welcome to start up anytime he wants."

You patted the side of the car lovingly. "He will! He's just a late bloomer. But he'll grow up big and strong, just like his daddy."

Ghost laughed, shaking his head. As he did, his brown strands caught in the breeze, the wind tussling them up a bit. It seemed another haircut was in order. No matter how many times you nudged him to let it grow out, Simon was firmly stuck in his ways. He didn't need any fuss over his looks. Just a kitchen chair and the steady hum of the clippers in your hand was heaven enough for him.

"Besides," he'd always say. "No one's gonna see it under the mask."

And he was right. It wouldn't show then. But over the years, that mask was another layer of himself he'd shed when it was just the two of you. He'd still pull it out every now and then for some sexy fun. But for the most part, it sat idle on the mantle beside his death certificate until it was needed again.

They were small steps to most people: using his name and baring his face. But for him, you knew they were huge. Without those barriers between him and the outside world, he was vulnerable. He was unguarded. He was human. And it touched you to see him gradually grow comfortable enough to be so vulnerable around you. He always protected you from physical threats or danger without fail. But it was your greatest honor to protect the tender heart he'd kept hidden for so long.

"I know you love working on this thing," he said, rubbing your back. "But are you sure it's worth the effort? We already have my jeep and it runs just fine. We could probably make a decent chunk of change selling this old thing for scraps."

"No," you smiled, but your voice was firm as you shook your head. "We're not selling it, Simon. We need it!"

You let your vague response linger in the air until Simon prompted you to continue, right on cue. "...For?"

"You know I have safety concerns with jeeps. The whole 'no doors or windows' thing?"

Simon scoffed and rolled his eyes, knowing full well where the conversation was headed. His treasured car had been the topic of many heated discussions over the years, some playful and some admittedly not so playful. But when he opened his mouth to defend himself, you rushed on.

"We need something that can get us safely from one place to another. You, me,... and the baby."

All of Simon's prepared arguments flew out the window as he sat there in stunned silence, dumbfounded. He had mentally listed every possible counter to what you had to say, but there was no way he could have anticipated a declaration like that.

"You're-you're pregnant?!"

"Don't act so surprised," you giggled, swatting at him. "It takes two to tango and you know how much we tango. It was bound to happen eventually!"

"No, I'm serious," he whispered, grabbing your hand and turning you to face him. "You're really pregnant?"

You blushed, tearing up a bit as you nodded. "Mmhmm!"

His hands trembled against your shoulders, his eyes wide as a million questions flew through his mind. But he held them all at bay to pull you into a tight embrace.

"Holy shit, princess!" he murmured, laughing in pleasant surprise. "I… We… We're gonna be parents! Princess!"

"I took the test when I got home. I did two, actually. We're gonna be parents!"

"Is it a boy? Is it a girl? What is it?" Simon pulled back, his hands hovering over your stomach as he knelt to lovingly coo at where his child was growing. "Are you a boy, a girl, something in between?"

"Simon!" You doubled over slightly as you laughed, clutching his arm for support. "It's way too early to even know something like that yet!"

"Well, whatever you turn out to be, don't you worry 'bout a thing. I'll be standing by and looking out. And the second you give the signal for evac, I'll meet you at the extraction point. Okay, little one? Just don’t give your Ma a hard time or we'll have problems."

"Aw, they wouldn't dream of it," you murmured. "I'm sure I won't even feel a thing!"

Simon gave you a doubtful look before laughing along with you. You were both practically bursting with joy and excitement. Your eyes danced with a bright happiness. But as he traced your cheek with his fingertips, he could sense there was trepidation in there too.

"Hey, you're gonna be just fine. When the cravings hit, when you start crying over every little thing, and when the baby finally comes? We'll get through it together. Even at the scariest parts, I'll be right there with you. Okay?"

"I know," you sighed. "It's just really sudden. I mean, we've talked about starting a family before. And I'm so excited to finally do it! But I'm kinda scared, too. Shocker, I know, but I've never done any of this before. Is it normal to be this nervous?"

"I say it is. Hell, I'm nervous too. But you're gonna be just fine. You're gonna be a great mother, princess. Trust me. It's me I'm more worried about, honestly. Didn't exactly have the best example for fatherhood growing up. And I really don't wanna mess up, you know?"

"I know how you feel, Si. But look at it this way! You've always been there for me, protecting me and taking care of me. Without fail. You didn't mess me up!"

His face fell into a lopsided smirk. "Didn't mess you up maybe. But I sure knocked you up good, huh?"

"Stop, I'm being serious," you laughed. "Honestly. They'll be lucky to have you as a dad. You're gonna do great, I know it."

Simon relaxed a bit more, clinging to your words of encouragement. Eventually, he nodded and let out a breath of relief. His hands cradled your sides, pulling your stomach close as he planted a gentle kiss against your abdomen. His future child hadn't even arrived yet, but he was already wonderstruck and showering it with love.

"You're gonna laugh, but I had a silly idea for names."

"Oh?" Simon raised an eyebrow. "Lay it on me."

"Well, if it's a girl, we could name her Lilith. It means 'ghost' or 'spirit of the night'. And if it's a boy, maybe Caden? 'Spirit of War' just stood out to me. It's dumb, I know. But I thought it'd be fun to keep the Ghost theme going in a subtle way. Our own little family tradition."

"Lily and Cade," he murmured, immediately creating affectionate nicknames for both options. "It's not dumb, love. It's perfect. Our own little band of ghouls and ghosts."

"It's your kid too, though. You have any ideas?"

Simon rose to his feet, brushing the dust off his pants. "I don't have names or anything. But I do wanna sort something out right right off the bat. We'll baby-proof the house. And all my guns and ammo will be kept safely out of reach. But the minute they are old enough, I'm teaching the little rascal how to shoot. If they wanna be Little Ghosts in name, they gotta fight like one too."

"I suspected as much," you giggled. "I was gonna make you promise to be safe at first, but I know you. They'll be in good hands."

"Oh, the best hands," he smirked, puffing out his chest. "But come on. Let's get you inside and off your feet."

The sun was starting to dip lower on the horizon. But as late as it was getting, you didn't have the heart to leave the car port just yet. The open engine bay yawned at you, seemingly pulling you in. It always felt like the perfect fix was just around the corner. And though it never was, you weren't ready to surrender for the night just yet.

"Aw, man! Five more minutes? I'm okay, I promise!"

"Nope," Simon shook his head, tugging the tools from your hands before scooping you up in his arms. "That was an order, princess. I'm not taking any risks. Don't worry about the car, though. I'll sort it out myself now that I've got a good reason to. But from here on out, Lily comes first."

"Or Cade," you chirped, poking his arm. "It could still go either way!"

"You think I can't tell when I’m in the presence of a princess? Trust me, it's Lily. I just have a feeling. Call it a fatherly instinct."

Erica’s Diaper Plan

Chapter 19

((Monday later after noon)).

Karen meets up with Jasmine to calm down and vent.

“Hey girl, I so need this after my day…fuck”

“Lmfao, damn Karen…I’ve never heard you say the F word before LMFAO… dealing with your little diaper daughter is turning out to be more of a challenge than you thought huh?”

“ jazz, I thought I was handling it well until today… like this was my biggest fear, hell it was my fear 5-6 years ago and I tried to get Erica weaned off of diapers…”

“ no I get it, I mean, I don’t… but like I do… or something?! so I got like a piece of the story from her and a piece of the story from you did she just like freak out?”

“ more or less, some of her friends saw her sitting in her car seat seat, sucking her pacifier she got out, got embarrassed, let her herself leaked and then totally had a meltdown… and I sat there and watched the whole thing. It was like a bad movie. And then to put the cherry on top, the day of all days she wants to ask me about breast-feeding”. Smh

“ she really flat out, asked you that?”

“ without a care in the world… like I realize I’ve pander to her, and I’m trying to make this what she wants, but that took me by surprise, I probably wouldn’t have let it affected me the way it did today, but today was just pretty bad in general”

“ what’s crazy is how much Erica likes the humiliation side and stuff and then when she got the real humiliation Deal, she totally freaked out…lmfao. I’ll tell you what you should do, just dive in with that and just desensitize her”

“ what do you mean desensitize her?”

“ Well like start planning excursions where she’s dressed little. thick diapers. Check her in public change or some places that are maybe a little bit blushing and just get her used to the idea that this is her reality., like you said this is what she wanted”

“ I realize that’s what she wants, but I’m still coming to terms with having to do some of that… like I start hearing that evil voice inside my head that wants to yell at her and be mean, forgetting that I’ve given in and tried to make this the best for her… it’s like I’m in a catch 22”

“ I didn’t even think of that, wow, well like… I have some experience with some of that, and we already know Erica is comfortable with me, if you don’t mind, let me have her for a couple of weekends or some overnights and I’ll plan a few things here and there and just get her used to it”

“ oh Jazz, don’t have to do that… this is my problem, kind of my bed and I’ve made it too.”

“ oh yeah, I get that… but you’re obviously struggling with it right now and I have no problem so why don’t you let me take on some of that responsibility for you? What’s the worst that can happen? She wants to stay in diapers longer. Lmfao”

“ that’s another thing I’ve been thinking about, like is this just a for now thing, is this a year, is this a decade, is she gonna be diapered forever? Like these are things I’m starting to ponder…”

“ I obviously don’t know and I’m speaking at a school here… but I’m pretty sure she’s going to be interested in wearing diapers and being babied most of her life, everything she wants talks about, etc. is the basis of a diaper fetish adult baby thing… it seems she’s not really isolating like the sexual fantasy side, which is a good thing, but I’m sure it’s in there… that’s kind of why I’m offering to kind of desensitizer with humiliation because if you can keep this is humiliation being baby nurturing, it will hold off the other stuff longer, and everybody can be more comfortable with it. makes sense?”

“ it does it’s just all of that stuff. I haven’t even wanted to think about… like I’ve been reading some of her message board and stuff like that and there’s several stories and situations of kids in their early 20s still being diaper and living at home and babied, as much as I want my only child to stay a kid as long as she can I don’t know if I want to be wiping her poopy butt when she’s 23 lol”

“ yeah, that’s when you can just cross your fingers and hope that she meets a guy or a girl that wants to be her babysitter mommy daddy etc. lol”

“ do you really think that that’s where it’s going? Why does that creep me out so much? Why does it creep me out at all, I’m diapering my 15-year-old daughter?”

The two continued their back-and-forth for a little while longer without any new groundbreaking information being exchanged. However, it was figured out and agreed-upon that jazz is going to watch Erica this weekend next weekend and a couple of days throughout the week. All Karen asks is that jazz keep her apprised of what was happening and let her know what experiences or what not happened so that she can ask Erica about them and try to get honest answers of how it’s making her feel.

As well, it’ll help Karen know what to do better to help with her needs.

“ so I had a curiosity like what things are you talking about doing?”

“ Well I wanna talk to her and kind of see where her brain is at, but the first few things I wanna do or like some light public humiliation stuff just to kind of desensitize her and get her used to strangers, knowing she’s diaper and things like that… but definitely want to take her to like CVS/Walgreens and loudly talk about do we have enough wipes powder, etc. and just get people to look at the little pacifier crinkly butt as I’m talking about diaper supplies, a real easy lightweight just kinda get her blood pumping and to see where I can take it from there”

“ oh that’s good, I like that… like make some rules that she has to have a pacifier in if we’re running errands and always holding hands and yeah, that’s good. We do have that doctors appointment on Wednesday. Is there anything I should maybe plan for that to kind of do any of this?”

“ you could yeah, the appointments after school, right?”

“ yep right after school I’m picking her up and going right there”

“ OK, on Wednesday we’re gonna have her come see me a period or so early for her diaper change, and then by the time you pick her up, she should be pretty soaking wet. Don’t change her before the doctor, parade, her in there with a soggy waddle butt. And when you get back in the exam room, and in between when the nurse talks to you and says the doctor being a second… That’s when you put her on the table and start changing her. With any luck, the doctor will walk in in the middle and Erica will definitely get a good dose of full on humiliation. On top of that the doctors is probably gonna be pretty curious of why you’re 15-year-old in diapers. Have you thought about that answer yet?”

Karen put her hands on her face and put her head down, “ I thought of some things, but I don’t wanna lie, but I also don’t want to tell the truth lol”

“Lmfao, yeah, I can see that… you want some help?”

“ always what you’re thinking”

“ keep it simple the more elaborate it sounds the more fake it sounds, so maybe just tell the doctor that she’s been wetting her bed a little more she started having some daytime accidents and used together. Decided that it might be a good idea if she wears protection throughout the day until she can keep her pants dry.”

“ that’s good, what do I say when the doctor asks why I’m changing her like a baby and she has a pacifier?”

“ I would keep the pacifier in the diaper bag, Karen… being visibly diapered, getting changed, and explaining it is far humiliation enough we don’t need to add a pacifier and confuse the doctor… but yeah, that’s a very decent excuse and he might do some test to try to find out where her incontinence is coming from and to be honest that’s the paperwork I need to put on file to legally be able to even change her diaper so… do that!”

The two friends ended up having two rounds of margaritas, shared an appetizer and tried to change the subject to something other than Erica’s diapers. As the time passed it quickly became 830, and Karen exclaimed “oh shit, I have Sara Beth babysitting her right now… I should probably think about getting home so she can get home and all that and get ready for school tomorrow…”

“ yeah I guess so, I’ve got a lot of paperwork to do so. I’m gonna head out of here as well! Will you please let me know if something happens with Erica again tomorrow so I know not to expect her…”

“ will do jazz, but I’m telling you right now she could be in a wet leaky diaper pacifier pants off, etc. that girl’s going to school tomorrow lol”

(Monday evening 915pm)

As Karen arrived back home, park the car in the garage and entered through the kitchen. She noticed Jim was home, and that Sara Beth was already sent home. I was quiet in the living room, but she could hear faint a voice coming from down the hall… as Karen approached Erica’s nursery door, she heard her husband in the middle of reading Erica a bedtime story! She stood outside the door out of you for a second trying to figure out what he was reading… ahh, the little prince, she thought. Hearing her husband reading a bedtime story to their diaper 15-year-old as weird as it could be construed actually brought a smile to her face and gave her some hope that tomorrow is a new day.

Karen peaked around the corner catching Jim’s eye, and seeing Erica eyes closed pacifier and snuggled up to a teddy bear, looking as comfortable as a toddler. Jim smiled at Karen, closed the book, and quietly exited Erica’s nursery.

“ that was fucking adorable hon!”

”What lol”

“ Reading Erica bedtime story, I was still upset with her from today, even when I first got home and that all melted away when I saw her sucking that pacifier passed out with you reading a story… thank you, even though I know you were doing it for her, not me!!”

“ well you’re welcome, hon!!! Glad to be of service!”

“ speaking of servicing… how long has it been since I got on my knees and made you feel good? Huh?”

Jim started to blush, “oh honey, you don’t have to do that… I know you had a rough day”

“ Yeah and this is how I’m going to cure my rough day! Take your pants down, now!”

Jim did as he was told, and before too long Karen was on her knees, sucking her husband’s swelling cock… things didn’t take too long, and after a few minutes, Jim taps Karen’s head for a warning… and Karen held on tighter waiting for her husband to blow his load down her throat.

“ oh Karen… oh you’re swallowing oh gosh… oh”

Karen smirking with a very erect cock in her mouth, swallowed down the last mouthful, and gently licked and sucked until his penis became again flaccid.

Tuesday Morning

The alarms of the house once again buzzing alerting everyone of a brand new day… apprehensively Karen awoke and headed to her daughter’s to wake her and get her ready for what will be her now first day.

“ good morning little girl… time to get up my dear!”

Erica slowly fluttered her eyes open, pacifier still in her mouth and smiled up at her mother…

“ good morning Mommy”

As Erica woke up, Karen reached her hand down toward Erica’s crotch to see what the damage was….

“ did my big little girl wet her bed again last night? Huh? Goodness this diaper is soaked!! Glad it’s a wet diaper not a wet bed!”

All the little talk was making Erica blush this early in the morning, “ OK mommy can you get the light?”

Erica finally hopped up, and without being told, climbed under your changing table, laid-back with her pacifier still in… and let her mother get to work getting her into a dry diaper.

Karen got the tapes undone, and started scrubbing her princess parts with the pampers baby wipes…

“ lift those legs up little girl, oh, looks like you had a bit of a mess accident too… you’ve never pooped the bed before, weird”

Erica just stared at her mother

Pacifier, Karen smiled back and just continued to clean her daughter. After she was proficiently, cleaned of her stale pee, pee, and small messy Accident., her mother grabbed a daytime diaper… had her lift her legs and slid it under her butt. After the diaper was in place, Karen applied to generous amount of extra streak, Desitin… a heaping helping of pampers’s baby powder… folded the front up and securely taped her Sweet 15 year-old daughter into her diaper

For some reason this morning, Erica was far more interested in making her diaper crinkle, then getting up and then helping her get dressed…

“ OK we get it Erica your diaper makes noise, let’s get you stood up so we can get dressed… what sounds good for breakfast?”

Erica reluctantly removed her pacifier, and stared at her mother, for what seemed like an eternity… and she finally uttered “English muffin”. Then immediately placed the pacifier back in her mouth.

“ you know you can’t eat breakfast with pacifier in right?”

Erica gave her mom a look that could’ve been translated into the smart ass, but with her pacifier and no words, it was just smug… Karen wrote her eyes and told her to finish getting dressed and she would go get her English muffin ready so they wouldn’t be late.

New Solutions, Old Disasters

More volunteering this last few days; it feels like the only thing to do that makes sense right now. There's a website that local people can check to find volunteer opportunities, so I signed up to help at the local food and water distro. They get lots of help on weekends, it looks like, but much less during the week, so I brought husband and Kiddo along as well. It was us and three other volunteers, a few city librarians who have been assigned to disaster duties while some of the libraries are still closed, and a handful of National Guardsmen working this center. The National Guard contingent has set up near our house at a summer camp tucked back in the hills, and I have never seen so many Chinooks in my whole life, much less had them rattling my windowpanes. Glad to have them though, they're doing a huge amount of work and supply transport!

Anyway, Kiddo and I directed traffic all afternoon. That meant meeting every car, figuring out what they needed and giving each driver a post-it note to say what and how much of each item to give them. Anyone who comes to the center was eligible to get one box full of 12 liters of water in 1-liter tetrapacks and one box of 12 MREs per person they were picking up for, plus as much potable and nonpotable water as they wanted in the containers they brought themselves. Some folks just got stuff for themselves, some picked up for others, a few loaded up for whole neighborhoods. I taught Kiddo how to do the post-it ticket and we took turns each time a car approached. He was nervous at first but quickly got the hang of it and was getting very fast and confident by the end of the day! I'm really proud of him because socializing can be a tough thing for him but he powered through and came out the other side. By the end of the day, he was saying that this was his favorite volunteer gig of all. (It did not hurt that the weather was exquisite all day and we got to enjoy a lot of it from our chairs in a nice shady place at the front gate.)

World Central Kitchen brought lunch for us, which was wonderful and delicious. It was some kind of chili-goulash with big chunks of vegetable in it, and there were three massive pans (sometimes we have many more volunteers than we had that day!) At the end of the day, the volunteer coordinator asked us if we wanted to take the leftovers home and we said sure, if nobody else was going to take them. Turns out there was an entire pan left and with everybody else being singles, nobody wanted that much, lol. We took it home and shared it with our neighbors and still had enough for two big meals. Our neighbors are a nurse in one of the hard-hit towns and a handyman plus two teenagers, so they were also happy to get an easy hot meal! We also took home one box of MREs because we ate through so many of our emergency supplies during the days when power was out, and it feels good to be prepared. I may give them away at some point, hard to say. We have given away a whole lot of my emergency stash at this point on the grounds that it feels bad to save up for an emergency that is happening right now to other people.

Yesterday I did actual Red Cross work for the first time in awhile. (I did an overnight shift at a Red Cross shelter the day after we got back to town, but the post I made for that got half-finished and left in drafts and I'm still picking at it.) They wanted someone from the local Disaster Action Team at the shelter to help with casework intakes because we use the same program as they do and are already familiar with it. I drove down to the shelter and found there'd been a miscommunication, they wanted me working intake, but not at the shelter near me, at shelters all over the disaster area by remote. So I went home and made a bunch of phone calls instead. It was a little frustrating, but above all things you must be flexible if you want to be a good disaster worker. There are always going to be screwups and miscommunications and hurry-up-and-waits. As long as nothing life-threatening is happening, you just shrug and roll with it and do what is needed. That's one reason I've taken so much Red Cross training; if I get to a place and they don't need me for what I thought I was going to be doing, there's usually something else I can do.

I did end up in a shelter anyway, when we realized that the shelter I was trying to contact was isolated enough that they still didn't have reliable cell coverage in the area. Rather than continue beating my head against the wall, I hopped in the car and drove out an hour to the shelter, which was up north in a very tucked-away corner. MIracle of miracles, the shelter did have enough WiFi that I did not have to resort to paper forms intake and I was able to get nearly everyone in the shelter taken care of. I also got to hold someone's kitten, which was pretty great. Unfortunately, about two hours into my visit it became clear that several residents had just (as in _just_) tested positive for COVID, and this was now going to be a COVID shelter. I, who had just interviewed all the folks in the shelter, had also gotten a good solid exposure. Great.

All of that to say that this weekend is not a big volunteer weekend for us anymore, as we are staying home for a few days to make sure I'm not ferrying germs between vulnerable congregate populations and the general public. I did dig out my masks today so I could drop off some bottled water and go collect the last of my belongings from the office of my canvassing job. That is officially over, with final paychecks this week and our field director reassigned to another office. At least I got my bag of hats back! Wearing a mask right now feels surreal; nobody has given me a hard time or anything but it makes this disaster feel like 2020 again and the feeling of cognitive dissonance gets kind of intense.

At least now I can tell myself it's a good thing to see people gathering in groups again because it means that the restaurants and businesses are starting to open again! The boil order has been rescinded for a large chunk of the county, and I counted five open restaurants on the main street this evening, all of them busy. No place was as busy as the town laundromat though, which has become a huge gathering place as one of the only 24-hour laundry places in a county full of waterless folks. That place is _busy!_

[whentherewerebicycles]

took this photo by accident on our “let’s calm down after your massive pre-bedtime meltdown” walk but I kinda love it—I assume this is owen’s usual view of his beloved trees. we had a pretty good day! I worked for a few hours this morning and then we went to our friends’ house to watch the liberty-aces game. he was a great sport about it and took a little nap on mom for part of the game. then we came home and my mom came over to watch him while I did another few hours of student work and kinda half watched the pens game. I’ve been super tired this weekend and really hit a wall around 6pm, which of course is exactly when he woke up from his last nap of the day screaming the most bloodcurdling scream in his diverse repertoire of screams. not sure what was going on there but hoo boy he did not want to be soothed! he was so upset he couldn’t eat his bottle without choking on it so we went on our treegazing walk so everybody could calm down a bit lol. luckily he was ok after that and went down pretty easily for the night. I am just soooo drained and tomorrow is going to be pretty back-to-back with kids. I think this week is going to require a lot of heavy lifting but I am really hopeful that I can get my last two stragglers through the long essay soon and then things will feel a little easier. I am working too much!!!!! but having the extra money is going to make a huge difference in my quality of life/stress levels when he starts daycare. I just have to keep reminding myself of that. also I need to stop staying up late reading and just go to bed early. the busier I get the more I want to carve out time at the end of the day to read/decompress but I honestly need the sleep more. ever since he was born it’s like I need 8 solid hours to function at all and ideally 9-9.5 to function well.

[shion-yu]

Gave myself almost-pneumonia and my couch looks like a damn stock photo.

Since the whole time I’ve been like, “Am I living one of my shitty fanfictions? Coz this sucks.” Let me tell y’all a story.

Cold weather sucks as a severe asthmatic. I moved to the South so I didn’t have to deal with the frigid winters of upstate NY. I’m basically on and off sick until Spring comes (and then there’s allergy season but I digress). I think it’s helped some, but my lungs are just fucked up ok?

Anyways I went to a concert last Saturday and it was freezing. Then I went to the zoo on Sunday with a friend and it was also cold and swarming with kids who don’t know how to cover their mouths when they cough. It was a great weekend but by Tuesday I was sick - great. I had some warning bc my friend I went to the zoo with said they got sick yesterday. But it just seemed like a minor cold and I’ve been through this a million times, I truly did not think it was gonna get too much worse. My asthma was mostly under control and I rested a lot all week.

Thursday I’m more tired, but I start nebulizer treatments and even skip ice skating class and reschedule it for Saturday bc hey, I’m responsible. But Friday I start to feel worse. Like to the point where everybody at work is like wtf go home and one of them told me she’s gonna get me holy water. But it’s okay, it’s still been SO much worse and I’m really fine.

Saturday morning I wake up and I feel like I’m cured. So I go to ice skating class. And maybe I take a little walk in the rain. Bad fuckin idea. By the end of the day I’m having full blown asthma attacks one after the other and sweating like crazy. My abdomen is aching from coughing so much that it hurts to sit up. But I really don’t want to go to the ER. Not again. So I message my pulmonologist and hope I can just say never mind I’m good now by the time he answers on Monday.

That brings us to today, Sunday. I woke up at 6am after only 4 hours of sleep because I can’t stop choking. I’m sneezing and coughing up fluorescent green stuff, my throat tastes like blood and I have a fever. I really, really didn’t want to go to the doctor but it’s time. I drag my sorry ass to urgent care where the entire hour I sit in waiting, everybody who walks by gives me a ‘goddamn’ look because I’m coughing loud enough to alert the entire damn office. I’m so embarrassed bc what if they think I’m being dramatic and wasting time - again? I awkwardly explain my situation and the doctor sends me for CXR. When it comes back he says “Well, you don’t have pneumonia yet but see alllll this stuff here? That’s inflammation. I’m gonna prescribe antibiotics and (way heavier) steroids and you might have bronchitis already but your asthma is so bad that it’s indistinguishable by now. Also with your lungs you probably won’t be able to tell you have pneumonia until it’s pretty bad.”

So anyways, that’s my week. At least I got a lot of writing done for Whumptober - didn’t have to dig very deep to find enough misery to go around to all my fav OCs lol.

Name something you keep on the nightstand. The microfiber cloth for my glasses so I can clean mine as soon as needed.

What does a man brag about the most? I uh...don't know. I never hang with groups of dudes lol, and the ones I know don't really do a lot of bragging around me.

What's the most you've tipped your waiter or waitress. The highest I give is ₱500 and that's whenever I host a big party (10-15 pax). I leave ₱200 if I was very impressed by the service; otherwise my standard practice is at ₱100.

As a child, what frightened you the most? Cockroaches, because we had flying ones at home. The fear has carried over to this day because I still hate seeing them.

I also didn't like seeing anyone drunk because the men in my family who did never knew how to take care of themselves. It was horrifying watching them stumble and slur their words; physical altercations were the worst thing I had to witness. Among family. So imagine how pissed I felt when I tried alcohol for the first time and learned that drinking has a lot to do with just knowing how to control yourself.

Name a dish you take to a potluck. The ideal option would be pizza but that's what everybody brings, so my go-to has evolved to be Mama Lou's truffle mac and cheese. They're not what anyone would think to be their first choice, and yet everyone goes crazy over them. As a people pleaser, I always want to make sure it's my tray that makes their way to plates the most haha.

What's a popular vacation location? For Filipinos, definitely any of these: Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore. I've been to Singapore but have no interest in the other two.

Name a complaint people have about their job. That they are not paid enough for the life they need to sustain.

Name something you put off doing until the weekend. Taking our pets to the vet. The queues are always unpredictable, and the last thing I'd want to happen is to be 5th in line during my lunch break and be stuck on the road three minutes before a 1 PM call. So say if they were due on a Wednesday, I'd just take them that same weekend.

What's a common remedy for a cold? I just let it pass if it's only a cough or cold. Fever is a different story – I'm rarely sick, so when it happens it crashes hard on me. When I get a fever, I usually find myself asking for soup since it's the only thing I'll have the appetite for.

My mom also has this honey ginger tea that she makes me drink 1-2 glasses of. It's nasty, but I do it for her so it doesn't go to waste.

How many scoops of ice cream do you put on an ice cream cone? 2 max and that's pushing it. I'm a slow eater, so it's sure to melt. It's also why I've always preferred having ice cream from a bowl/cup.

Name a type of nut. If I'm having the nut itself, pistachio. In terms of flavor, almond or peanut.

How long is the typical vacation? Anywhere between 2-5 days. Except for the time we were in Bali for 7 days, I've never been on a vacation for longer than a week.

Name a popular athlete. Simone Biles.

At what age should you have children? Whenever you're ready and financially capable. It's different for all.

During high school, what was your worst subject? Chemistry. I feel like my teacher only passed me out of guilt(??); my test scores ranged from 68-89. Never tasted a line of 9 from it lol.

Name a famous Jack. Jack Nicholson.

How many speeding tickets does an average motorist receive? I have no idea. Speeding's not that big of a problem here to begin with because the Philippines is the Traffic Hellhole of the World LOL

Name a profession a kid wants to be when they grow up. Teacher, doctor, princess.

Name a famous TV detective. Sherlock Holmes.

At what age did you get your first kiss? 16.

What month is popular for weddings? Ber months.

Name something people forget when they're in a hurry. Wallet.

The trade war is getting larger and larger and everyone's pushing for a war and they don't know what we have and our son works for us and daughter and they know it there's a lot of things happening and they're huge but no she doesn't need your brain she just can transfered into people like he can and she's flipping out and saying especially messed up partially and yeah she had to dope and stuff and she goes wow this is going to be rude and it has been.. and there's a huge huge trade war starting it's going on with Japan right now that they issued a retort to Trump's 20% tariffs on everything from Japan there's a 30% on your stuff we don't even need it we'll keep what we were sending and it begin like that and he said jumping around you'll feel it and all this stuff and he's almost declared war cuz you're such a freak and that's what people do and our son told him they would China too in a way they need to do that and he's kind of helping us. So this is happening it's not only Japan they did it with France and Germany and Spain the rest of Europe is going to respond before Trump starts his increased tariff tirade and they're putting tariffs up and saying the same thing we can make all sorts of things easy you can't cuz you're shutting it down cuz you're a weirdo and you're going to need it and we don't need to have it it's almost like they did it on purpose. Get through the day have a great weekend and it's going to go ahead now that they will all start doing it and people are saying it all over the world Africa South America is huge Mexico is huge and they're going to shut it down and they'll issue tariffs and you just stop sending stuff and the guys going to be a bum overnight and out of office this is the death now did everybody's been looking for but it's going to cost you and our son said this is going to help us there's a few reasons it kind of odd no you said it was kind of odd to him that they're this ridiculous but it's kind of what we needed and it's an adjustment to the economy which was going nowhere now Trump's people because I hate that soon as a b**** then other groups will fall and they hit their own retards and back is giving them a home so Trump will be annihilated here and he wants them to do things and he does get them to do stuff and he knows how to help people and it's kind of Happy and our senses that's great he can be tough man cuz he started it and Trump was trying to ruin it and take it over and failed because of bja and he's going to try and do that and he does managed to get him to do a lot of stuff it helps both

This has begun in 11 days Trump out on his ass. And he's going to be going around getting hurt and broken and killed until he's out and that's what happens and it's not really this fall either there's another character that was worse than Nathan Hale and yeah it was Nathaniel Hawthorne.

That's why the mall is pretty much destroyed and it's following people around the Mac proper we're doing it and saying it or wandering around in his stuff and it's a nightmare

What made me smile this week?

Monday, 12/2/24 - today we went back to school and today was pretty chill o guess, for first period had worked on an online assignment and updated more descriptions for YouTube in second period we got yummy treats and worked on a paper assignment that was only review so we didn't have to turn it in but I got it completed then in third period we had worked and discussed over our project and the reason for our grades which almost everybody got an F fun then in fourth we had worked on notes and got done with a quiz that thankfully I had gotten a pretty good grade on, then we had to wait in the freezing cold before our bus came and then we enjoyed our nice day at home where it was warm lol today made me smile!

Tuesday, 12/3/24 - today we had an unexpected snow day which was out of nowhere. Finally, after 1039 days we finally got snow! So this meant we got to stay home and I had chemotherapy and I sadly had to Miss My ceremony :( But hopefully, they'll reschedule it!! Basically for the majority of the day we had just hung out and had a great time! It wasn't the craziest day ever but it was a well-needed break and we did enjoy it! We watched some shows and battled a few on Pokemon TGC pocket! We enjoyed the relaxing day! And today made me smile!

Wednesday, 12/4/24 - today is a 2-hour delay because of the severely cold weather that we've been having recently, and today we are planning on going to school we had done our workouts and headed out the door and it was so cold outside! We thought going out at 9:50 Am would be fine because everyone else did it but we found ourselves waiting until 10:30 Am! That's 40 minutes outside in the cold freezing weather. Apparently, our bus had forgotten us and we just headed back home so we got to enjoy a lovely day off! And while we did enjoy the nice break we didn't really want to go to school as apparently, we get so much stuff that we simply cannot miss one day… but we hung out for the majority of the day and had a great time! It was great and it certainly made us smile! And yes the snow that we had waited so graciously for the last 1039 days melted in a few hours. But we did enjoy today and it made me smile!

Thursday, 12/5/24 - today we went back to school and arrived at a test and many other assignments thankfully most of mine were online so I had done most of them for the first period I had finished a majority of my assignments and got them completed then in the second period I got a yummy sweet treat and completed a paper that wasn't supposed to be due at the end of class but she read it wrong but thankfully nothing bad happened and I did what I needed to do then in the third period we had worked on some notes and a confusing bell ringer which is something we had never learned then in the fourth period I had done the notebook quiz and got that complete and got a 100 at least I remember lol and then we went home and enjoyed a nice night at the house! Today has made me smile!

Friday, 12/6/24 - today is the last day of school before the weekend! Today in the first period since I had nothing to work on I just watched tons of YouTube videos LOL and mainly sat there then in the second period I worked on a worksheet that was due at the end of class and I got that completely done! Then in third period, I had worked on some more notes and another code to decode on my bell ringer thankfully she helped us but we got no clues (that's helpful…) then in fourth we did some notes and ended the day outside waiting forever for our bus and then got home and enjoyed the freedom of our sink being fixed( for those who don't know not said in last update our sink had broke on December 5th and thankfully nothing bad happened it just took a few to get it where it needed to be!) Then we enjoyed the rest of our day and today made me smile!

Saturday, 12/7/24 - today is the first day of the weekend and so far it's been great we've been in a good mood and so has our mom she has just been organizing but she's in a good mood we had some yummy sausage biscuits and we did have to do dishes but we didn't even have to do that much because the whole family had to pitch in since the sink was out for a bit and it wasn't bad we got through it! And then later on we just hung out and battled so much! I had only 185 solo battles and now I have 215 as of ending today! Which to me is crazy! I am happy with the progress I'm making in my game! Then shortly we just hung out and had a great time. Today was awesome and I liked today even though I had to do another round of chemotherapy! Which is not fun but it was alright! But today definitely has made me smile!

Sunday, 12/8/24 - today is the last day before we go back to school which is bumming but we'll get through it. Today we woke up to organizing and the attic being open there were some boxes and some wrapping paper we had thought we were setting up the tree but in all actuality, I'm still quite not sure what they were doing but we're ok! We had hung out for most of the day and we did enjoy seeing some aspects of our Christmas game being created! Looks fun already! We had battled some more and just watched a few videos. Sadly our friend Luz in the red wheelchair (we have two friends named Luz) is displaying symptoms of a mini UTI! Which isn't good. Hopefully, it will clear up soon wishing fast healing! 🤞 But we had enjoyed our day and now I'm at 11:04 Pm posting this lol or getting ready too! But now with the most important question of the week!?
