“You’re aware this is extremely offensive, right?”
He’s sitting, chair leaned back so the front legs are just off the floor. His booted feet propped up on her desk – her very clean, very organized desk – the paperwork that had occupied that space now pushed haphazardly into the corner. In his hand, he holds a book with a green cover depicting a heavily muscled elven man clutching a waiflike woman in his arms.
“What are you doing in here?”
He begins to read dramatically from the book in his hand: “‘She presses into his body as they stride aback the majestic halla, he kicks the beast and it surges forward, his voice a soft whisper in her ear. “Hold on, da’len.”” His hair falls into his face and he pushes a heavily ringed hand through it, shoulders shaking with laughter. “There are so many things wrong in just that paragraph.”
She blinks at him, then her mouth becomes a stern line. “Did you pick the lock on my door?”
He ignores her and presses on with his rant. “Da’len means… like, child, it’s not a very sexy thing to call someone-“
“Faron.”
“And we don’t ride the halla like a horse, that’s-“
Firmer. “Faron.”
He pauses and lowers the book. “Cassandra.”
speaking of romance novels and faron talking too much, a snippet i wrote of something a little bit ago lol
#cole writes#ch: faron lavellan#ive been having fun just writing like bits of things lol no brain necessary#also let it be known i LIKE romance novels#dont look at my shelves!#or do ;)

seriously have been thinking about this all night long. call me autistic but the fact that 90% of workplaces the point is not to get your work done and then be done doing it but to instead perform an elaborate social dance in which you find something to do even when you're done doing everything you need to do in order to show your fellow workers that you, too, are Working . because you are at Work . disgusting why cant we all agree that if there is no work immediately to be done. we just dont do anything
#i personally like to not be doing things constantly at all times. it stresses me out#i know there are ppl who thrive on cosntant activity#but me i like to chill out.#and the problem then becomes that i only ACTIVELY remember to do work and Find More Work To Do when im stressed#at the thought that others might want to see me working#if im ever relaxed i just dont look for stuff to do#catch 22 of modern work culture which permeates even ostensibly noncapitalist structures like public libraries#for instance: will it really kill anybody if the books get shelved by me now after a very busy day?#or shelved tomorrow morning by. well probably me since i'll be the one at the desk#not in the slightest#but it was work that wasnt being immediately done by me. therefore it was incorrect behavior#that i failed to identify because my instinct is to relax when not immediately presented with a Situation#this got me labeled as 'having no initiative' by my dad from a very early age#and even as an adult i still feel like im a child with no initiative

being an adult means we can buy or make as much self-indulgent shit (as we can afford) and unironically have trinkets of our fave things cause our teen years was bullied for liking things and hiding/denying we were ever neurodivergent to the point of suicide. sucks for anyone that thinks its weird cringe but I'm going to try and allow myself to love myself in little ways now
#wish i could tell younger me that i wasnt fucked up i was just autistic#even if youre not nd i still think having things you enjoy around you is important especially for your space#so i make a notable effort to get fandom stuff for my younger siblings now#like my lil sister thinks getting demon slayer stuff is cringe cause anime and what not (havent read it sorry)#but her face still lights up when i get her a pin for her#or a blind bag with a character keychain#and very slowly the self hatred and whatever it feels like that youre not allowed to like anything and that anything you like is bad#starts to diminish#my qpp is obsessed with birds and chickens and has so many trinkets around the house for it#or my friend who loves how pretty stained glass looks that his walls are covered in thrifted stain glass pieces#i know an elderly couple who are obsessed with star trek and they have a room in the house purely for shelves stacked with collectables#my friend's dad is so obsessed with spiderman that he has 3 walls full of figurines and posters and collectables that prob amoutn to tons#like i dont get it but i get it#maybe its because im sick rn but im in my head tonight about human loving things and stories and cocepts to the point of comfort#sara shush#ramble

did some wood staining for the first time today 👍 my technique is terrible but its fun and im excited to get these shelves finished
#you may ask yourself. how much money could it possibly cost to get a set of shelves in your bedroom in 2023#and the answer is 'bare minimum one hundred dollars if you want them to look even a little okay'#i dont have any money but i need shelves so bad my room is empty and depressing and the walls are GRAY!!!!#i know ive mentioned this before but GRAY. REALLY.#not even like a nice respectable slate gray or anything specific enough to feel like a statement theyre all just light dishwater gray#it makes me suicidal. i need colors or ill die.

do you collect figures of fandoms you like or just random ones you thought were worthy of getting?
i currently only collect figures of characters i love! there's original characters and characters i haven't seen the media of that i also really love but the emotional connection really matters too much to me to buy those. it's half the joy for me to look at my figures and be reminded of how much i love those characters!
#like i said i love a bunch of figs of oc/characters i dont know too but idk there's something stopping me from buying those#i just know i personally won't enjoy those as much so i'd rather save my money for a character i do feel that connection to!#i absolutely respect aesthetic collectors tho i envy them sometimes#i would love to put together goth girl or halloween shelves but that's a little harder when i'm limited to media i've seen#oh actually i do own a love live eli halloween figure even tho i played love live for exactly one week#that's quite out off character but she looks soooo cute with my halloween miku <3#anon#ask#non figure

The manga behind all this will be a pain in the ass to access when I have to shuffle some books around
#desiree talks#(not picutred here but)#i now have all the viz homestuck books (excluding vol 1 bc i already had the original vol 1 and bought vol 2 recently)#for the shelf pictured here#i have hanakokun and the royal tutor#i want to move 2 volumes of the royal tutor to a letterbox i have under my shelve#(its the ones from michael’s and they perfectly fit about 12 regular sized manga)#its vol 11 and 13 and i dont like the spines#well i hate vol 13 for how undead eines looks#vol 11 is his retainer or w/e so they pair together#anyways to move those will add in hanako vol 19 (when i get it) and after school#in the shelf below will have phantom tales 12 fill where afterschool was

the parents are going up north for a couple of days thank FUCKING god its not enough but i havent been able to be insane in peace since FUCKING october and its . not to sound dramatic but Not Good For My Mental Health which i obviously cant let them know partly cos its not All their fault but also because im (irrationally!!!!!! irrationally) afraid theyll kick me out the second i say anything even remotely negative even jokingly. anyway my grand plan while theyre gone is to lie on couch and stare at ceiling (but, importantly, in the living room and not in my bedroom) and . well translating all the dollars trilogy event fics into finnish probably. insert that celibacy gif but edited so it says unemployed.
#also i will probably look at potential apartments#this is made harder by my shit brain being all 'am i unreasonable for wanting [very reasonable thing] even though i am me*'#* me and specifically me wanting things in general is bad and not allowed how dare i (source: hell brain)#(also bear in mind whenever i move out i dont want to move again in a Very long time to in ideal case ever. hate moving)#(i dont need a Lot i just want. my bed in a Properly Separate space from my living room. a space to call my own)#(back when i lived in turku the apartment had an alcove that literally only fit my bed. there were shelves above my bed & a few closets too#(couldnt even open all the closet doors properly but honestly thats the sort of Separate Space For My Bed that i mean)#(also there has to be enough space for a washing machine in the bathroom or i Will die)#(none of this is Unreasonable really)#(i dont have to live close to the city center i need a grocery store within walking distance & a bus and or tram stop close by)#(WHYYYYY is my brain playing this hell game here im having a shit time as is)
