officially starting work on Dying on the First date!

this story is about a medical student who is turned into a vampire against her will. after she rises from the grave, she tries to go back to her regular life. right away she struggles with her peculiar (even for a vampire) hunger. then, just when she thinks she's got the hang of this whole 'being undead' thing, bodies start dropping and our main character finds herself hunting her sire for answers.

the plot is still evolving, so the above is likely to change a bit.

Jason Kicks down Dick’s apartment door with a duffle bag in hand: turns out it’s not going to work out with Danny.

Dick about to enjoy some Chinese: oh no I thought you were really into him.

Jason, sitting down with a huff: I am but it’s just not going to work out.

Dick: what happened jason?

Jason: I fucked up that’s what.

Jason: he kissed me.

Jason: and afterwards, I panicked

Jason: and, just exclaimed “golly!”

Dick, trying to not keep a straight face:…

Jason: I said it very loudly..

Dick: oh jason-

Jason clutching a pillow: I can’t step foot into crime alley again Dick, I’m going to have to burn my bridges, start over-

Dick, lightly chuckling: it’s not that bad-!

Jason, into the pillow: just put me back into my casket!!

#dp x dc #writing prompt #danny fenton #jason todd #dc x dp #shipping #dead on main #jason is dying of embarrasment #don’t worry Danny found it cute #not a lot dating chances when you run an gang #just though #it would be funny #if jason’s first reaction to being kissed was just #golly

Idea: Sebastian is trans, Sam and Sebastian are dating and have been since before seb came out, which happened while kent was deployed. So when kent left for war he knew his teenage son had a “girlfriend,” and when he comes back, his young adult son now has a boyfriend, and he doesn’t realize it’s the same person, so he’s like, “why did Sam never write to me about breaking up with that girl or coming out as queer and starting to date this guy,” and doesn’t understand why Sam’s new boyfriend that he’s never met is acting somewhat familiar with him

#tal talks #Stardew valley #Sam Stardew #Sebastian Stardew #sambastian #Kent Stardew #I might write a silly little fic about this ideas #like where Kent just gets increasingly more confused and eventually comes to the conspiracy theory that Sam’s ‘girlfriend’ died #under mysterious circumstances and it was covered up #Kent: son please tell me the truth what happened to your first girlfriend #Sam: dad Sebastian is literally the first and only person I’ve ever dated #Kent: SON PLEASE DID THEY WIPE YOUR MEMORY IS IT ALIENS IS IT THE GOVERNMENT #also: natural redhead seb headcanon where he also dyed his hair black during the same time period #making him look even more different than he did before

Thinking about Elizabeth Woodville as a gothic heroine is making me go insane. She entered the story by overturning existing social structures, provoking both ire and fascination. She married into a dynasty doomed to eat itself alive. She was repeatedly associated with the supernatural, both in terms of love and death. Her life was shaped entirely by uncanny repetitions - two marriages, two widowhoods, two depositions, two flights to sanctuary, two ultimate reclamations, all paralleling and ricocheting off each other. Her plight after 1483 exposed the true rot at the heart of the monarchy - the trappings of royalty pulled away to reveal nothing, a never-ending cycle of betrayal and war, the price of power being the (literal) blood of children. She lived past the end of her family name, she lived past the end of her myth. She ended her life in a deeply anomalous position, half-in and half-out of royal society. She was both a haunting tragedy and the ultimate survivor who was finally free.

#elizabeth woodville #nobody was doing it like her #I wanted to add more things (eg: propaganda casting her as a transgressive figure and a threat to established orders; the way we'll never #truly Know her as she's been constantly rewritten across history) but ofc neither are unique to her or any other historical woman #my post #wars of the roses #don't reblog these tags but - the thing about Elizabeth is that she kept winning and losing at the same time #She rose higher and fell harder (in 1483-85) than anyone else in the late 15th century #From 1461 she was never ever at lasting peace - her widowhood and the crisis of 1469-71 and the actual terrible nightmare of 1483-85 and #Simnel's rebellion against her family and the fact that her birth family kept dying with her #and then she herself died right around the time yet another Pretender was stirring and threatening her children. That's...A Lot.#Imho Elizabeth was THE adaptor of the Wars of the Roses - she repeatedly found herself in highly anomalous and #unprecedented situations and just had to survive and adjust every single time #But that's just...never talked about when it comes to her #There are so many aspects of her life that are potentially fascinating yet completely unexplored in scholarship or media:#Her official appointment in royal councils; her position as the first Englishwoman post the Norman Conquest to be crowned queen #and what that actually MEANT for her; an actual examination of the propaganda against her; how she both foreshadowed and set a precedent #for Henry VIII's english queens; etc #There hasn't even been a proper reassessment of her role in 1483-85 TILL DATE despite it being one of the most wildly contested #periods in medieval England #lol I guess that's what drew me to Elizabeth in the first place - there's a fundamental lack of interest or acknowledgement in what was #actually happening with her and how it may have affected her. There's SO MUCH we can talk about but historians have repeatedly #stuck to the basics - and even then not well #I guess I have more things to write about on this blog then ((assuming I ever ever find the energy)#also to be clear while the Yorkists did 'eat themselves alive' they also Won - the crisis of 1483-85 was an internal conflict within #the dynasty that was not related to the events that ended in 1471 (which resulted in Edward IV's victory)#Henry Tudor was a figurehead for Edwardian Yorkists who specifically raised him as a claimant and were the ones who supported him #specifically as the husband of Elizabeth of York (swearing him as king only after he publicly swore to marry her)#Richard's defeat at Bosworth had *nothing* to do with 'York VS Lancaster' - it was the victory of one Yorkist faction against another #But yes the traditional line of succession was broken by Richard's betrayal and the male dynastic line was ultimately extinguished.

Most Sherlock Holmes adaptations I've seen tend to place their Final Problem towards the mid point of the series (or even a bit earlier) - it's also in my opinion the best way of going about it, so you have time enough for the characters to adjust after the reunion but they know each other well enough for the events of Fina to be devastating.

Sherlock & Co is done with 20 of the adventures. How many are there? Fifty-something? Almost sixty? Let's say we'll be entering mid-point territory after the 25th story.

So let's pretend for a moment that we have 5 more stories until The Final Problem. Ok.

Estimating an adventure at 3 episodes each, that would mean little over 3 months - maybe 3 and a half? Starting, of course, from the end of Sign of Four, which will be somewhere in December.

So let's say 3, maybe 4 months into 2025. That would be, what? Late march, early april?

Early april?

John having to tell the listeners that Sherlock is dead, in early april?

Quick calendar search reveals what I was praying it would - the 1st of april will be on a Tuesday next year.

So what I'm saying

What I'm saying is Sherlock &Co has the opportunity to do the funniest fucking thing

#fyi I don't mean John pranks us about Sherlock dying #i mean it's just the first Tuesday after sherlock “dies” so that's just when he happens to tell the listeners #maybe he's not even aware of the date #and is surprised to see the reactions are less “oh my god oh no” and more “haha good one” or “funny but actually don't joke about that”#ahhh and then he'd have to double down either on the 2nd or next Tuesday and explain again that his best friend is actually dead #oh that would hurt but it would also be absolutely hilarious #for us who know Sherlock's not actually dead #anywayy #for the record i don't actually think they'll do fina as early as april #(but wouldn't it be funny)#They might do it at the actual midpoint #after the 29th story so let's say june/ july #Hoping they don't place it too late cuz then we won't have enough time to see how it affects all of them #Even if it's around the 3/4 point i think I'd be a bit bummed #Also midpoint is a good place to take a break #Of course fear nr 1 is leaving it for the very end and making empt the last episode #and the reason why the podcast ends is “look what happened if it wasn't for the podcast maybe Moriarty wouldn't have noticed Sherlock”#Like a “it's becoming too dangerous” thing #but that's the evil timeline (not us!!!)#Honestly if it were me I'd make fina the midpoint.... then hiatus...... return...... second half......#and then get another big dangerous villain for the last few eps #Maybe one of them (sherlock) almost gets killed (again) and that's why john decides that #it's been swell but we're ending the podcast cause apparently we're putting (too big of) a target on our backs #Almost lost sherlock again the risks outweigh the benefits etc etc #Of course they'll keep solving crimes together just stop broadcasting them to the world #And that's how I'd do it! :D #God i can't be trusted with tags #If you read this far I love you #sherlock & co #theories

emo Nico x scene Will Solace...

#pjo #riordanverse #nico di angelo #will solace #solangelo #i need them to be cringe (affectionate) teenagers okay #give me Will with a hardcore homestuck phase and streaks in his hair dyed with kool-aid and striped armsocks #date night is Will teaching Nico how to make kandi bracelets #if youve been here awhile you may know i am a scene Jason believer and the same concepts apply here #listen i just think. emphasizing Nico being emo and giving him a scene boyfriend #its very important though that only certain riordanverse chars fit the vibe to be scene kids #like i dont think Percy would be as much as i want him to be #its antithetical to his character (internalized ableism/bad self-loathing/keeps his head down)#Will and Jason on the other hand would use XD unironically and have a total ball making sparkledog fursonas #Alex Fierro. DEFINITE scene kid. Magnus is already just kind of a little emo. Sadie is a definite yes. Carter. maybe.#i think he'd be adverse at first but kinda get into it casually yknow. he'd dig kandi bracelets at least.#probably get really into linguistic breakdown of xD rAnDoM speech just for fun #Walt no but he could. like. i think he'd be open to trying it. but its not his default state.#Zia. doesnt have the energy but i kinda wanna see it regardless. i think itd be fun for her but on her own she'd lean more goth #Leo? maybe. depends. he's more into doing stuff ironically. Piper. yes. but specifically as an f-you to conventional fashion #Reyna no. Frank maybe. Hazel yes. Thalia maybe. Annabeth hmm. maybe #i think thats all the main casts. Alabaster? YES and i wanna see it.#anyways thank you for coming to my emo x scene ted talk and character evaluations in the tags

Trick or Treat!

Here’s a treat! A blurb from my next novel, Dying on the First Date

Attracted by the blood, creatures encroach. They’re bulging shadows that dart out of sight the second my gaze lands on them. Each in varying size and shape, but all curious about me. Am I food? Am I a threat? Am I merely the newest, and oddest, decoration for their seemingly endless void?

The boldest amongst them floats closer still. It’s only when one gets within arms reach that I see it for what it really is. A fish. It’s a lake trout, specifically. Which baffles me because, wasn’t I in downtown Portland last night? What lake in Portland has trout?

Then it hits me. I’m at the bottom of a lake. That jackass told me he’d dispose of me in a lake. I didn’t think he’d have the balls to carry me around a park long enough to reach one, though. And while I’m having revelations, another one sucker punches me. This one sends me reeling. I’m at the bottom of a lake, and I haven’t felt the need to use my lungs once.

I gave myself a writing challenge and I am fascinated by it

So basically I put the robins in a randomizer to give them a new order/role (because I just...kinda wanted to see what would happen + I like role-reversal AUs) and got results that are giving me a fucking brain blast.

Stephanie, the first sidekick who defines the role

Tim, the sidekick who dies and comes back wrong

Dick, the sidekick who saves Batman from himself

Damian, the sidekick who was never supposed to be a sidekick but would go on to prove everyone wrong

Jason, the youngest sidekick who is still the Kid Wonder

...So this is fucking wild. I've got some ideas and several of these fit perfectly (Dick's role is pretty similar to his one in canon), but some of these are fucking INCREDIBLE to explore (Steph being the first Robin is something I never even considered but tbh I kinda love it).

I probably won't write a fic or anything because tbh I don't like publishing my writing that much, but I might expand this into a full AU and post about it. I might randomize other stuff too (ie, stuff that I cannot change vs stuff that I cannot keep the same) but this fucking rules as a starting point.

#uhhh what am I calling this??#randomizedrobinsau #stephanie brown #oh my god I am so excited to figure out how tf to write this.#because she's my favorite of these characters and having HER be the first sidekick + the one who has a mentor/older sister relationship #with the others?? kickass. though I'll probably keep her and Tim's relationship as 'dating-then-exes' because I think it's funny #and then SHE can be the Robin who Tim got fixated on + figured out her identity?? holy fuck and then the angst of Tim later dying #Tim Drake #tbh I kinda wish he'd gotten a different position because 'sidekick who dies' Tim has kinda been done a lot with the standard #reverse robin aus. But it'll still be fun to write. Definitely going the Joker Junior route with this because Batman Beyond kicks ass #Dick Grayson #He'll honestly probably be the easiest. Like...his role has not changed much outside of being younger/not the one who defines this #But I still think it'll be good to see how well I know Dick beyond his eldest brother thing (which is my best way of relating to him)#Damian al ghul #damian wayne #oh this is gonna kick ass #Bruce does not want his son to be a sidekick but Damian just kinda forces his way into that role #and everybody doubts him because of his history with the league but he later proves himself more than capable #to the point that he can set out mostly on his own and still thrive #Jason Todd #Jason being the baby of the family is also something I have never thought about but holy shit it could kick ass #I really hope that I don't roll 'Jason must die' or 'Robin 5 must die' on the randomizer. I just kinda want Jason to live this time #But unfortunately I double-screwed him because he's on the 'must happen' wheel twice now. I did not think these prompts through #TBH I am so happy that none of them rolled their OG roles. because that would have been so fucking boring

Greetings of pain and sorrow,

I am Ariadne, last known member of the Milan Duchy.

I have recently been informed that you have become my dearest younger sister's paramour? I do hope this little escapade you have decided to participate in will end nicely.

If not? Well, I am getting rusty due to my lack of training again, I wouldn't mind a new target to practice with.

Lots of regards,

Ariadne di Milan, The new Duchess of Milan

Oh gods not again

Right well, once again, I promise I have absolutely no ill intention towards Kat

#son of ares #ellis wakefield #Ooc: I'm laughing so hard right now #They've only just started the first date and Ellis has already been threatened by four different people #I love it #He better not fuck up #Or he's dying very very painfully #percy jackon and the olympians #percy jackson roleplay #percy jackson oc #heroes of olympus #demigod reader

Asdfhjkl okay I couldn't wait until I got home to roll!! So I did it... At my work desk (thankfully no one sits besides me... And at lunch... Which i think I totally failed at keeping a straight face 🫠)

So... story time

I decided to try a 10pull early in the morning. I'm still far from pity but... Of course. All the signs were pointing... To me getting c-blocked... By fish boy! D:<

Like even irl (from my previous irl post about getting Raf's badge) and even when I logged into the game, opened the wish page and collected the Galaxy Explorer rewards... It was all Rafayel 😭 but hey... At least I got... A new companion... Right...? 🥺

Fast forward like about 2 hours later...

I was originally planning to just... Go home and roll at night where Xavier usually comes home whenever I pull for Wishes

But it was lunch and I felt just a bit impatient... Why not build pity? Rafayel totally just reset it anyways...

Here comes the kicker.

I return to the game and he's like looking away, to which now, I have to tap on him a couple of times to get his attention.

And he casually dishes out his "No matter how many times it takes" line... But Xavier saying this famous line is super common in this outfit. So I have 0 expectations.

Also Zayne is now the first face I see on the Wish page. So, even lower expections... Until... I see the red flash...

And then... His flower... 🥺🥺🥺🥺😭😭😭😭😭 Xavier may be guaranteed in my next pull but I am not expecting him to come back right away???? My pity was reset afterall??? AHHHHHH!!!

And now he casually levels up the affinity level too! Like!! XAVIER PLS ヾ⁠(⁠*⁠’⁠Ｏ⁠’⁠*⁠)⁠/ my heart can only take so much surprises in a day...!

🍀NOW GOOD LUCK TO ALL THE REST WHO'RE PULLING!🍀 ✧⁠◝⁠(⁠⁰⁠▿⁠⁰⁠)⁠◜⁠✧ May this ⭐star (Xavier)🌠 return home to your sides! And whoever you're pulling for! Go get your man!

#love and deepspace #xavier love and deepspace #churambles #okay time for me to go back to focus on workkkk #and then enjoy the date and kindled once im back home #ughhhh dying inside....#i wanna see it but i think i will die from embarrassment first before i could even start it
