RULES: share the first line of your last ten published works or as many as you are able and see if there are any patterns!

1. Vanna gently rapped their knuckles against the door, announcing their presence before entering Bastila’s quarters with a soft whoosh of the door. | truth flows between us - kotor, revan & bastila

2. The first morning back on Dromund Kaas, it rains. | habitually yours - swtor, cadrien/minaiph

3. The Solar greets D’alia with the all-encompassing warmth of the fireplace as she steps past the heavy door. | your sweet confession - ffxiv, d’alia/minfilia

4. They had been separated for too long. It’s been like this for some time, but it never gets any easier. | not letting go - swtor, cadrien/minaiph

5. Malena doesn’t scream when her hand misses the ledge. | stay the course - mass effect, malena/kaidan

6. Malena returns to the Normandy SR-2 in a foul mood. She’s given a wide berth as soon as she steps through the airlock, and even Joker elects to keep his comments to a minimum, unable to completely withhold the crack about her confrontation on the surface but clearly using it to gauge how bad it’d gotten. | exit wounds - mass effect, malena/kaidan

7. A bitter chill seeps into the room long before the sun rises over the horizon, bringing with it hues of soft blue and warm gold as slow illumination takes hold. | lazy kisses in bed (prompt) - ffxiv, d’alia/sidurgu

8. More often these days, D’alia finds herself at the Forgotten Knight after a patrol. | drown the night - ffxiv, d’alia/sidurgu

9. Gazing around the room, Lon could almost forget the fact that a war was ongoing not terribly far from him, or that he was across an entire ocean due to it, perhaps even pretend that he had hopped a train with his lover for more than a simple few days of their overlapped reprieve from the front. | a night in paris - original, lon/ethan

10. Evie wishes she could say that her ex turning up to her apartment in the middle of the night is unexpected, but she’s not really surprised to see him. | collide - original, angel/evie

PATTERNS: I have a hard time writing first lines (and often come back to it after I’ve written further) but I do seem to like punchy, emotional state starters or atmospheric ones that capture mood!

Lost my mind thinking about the Vyer Estate (Patreon)

Top 5 happy memories?

1) it is November 2010. It is your sixteenth birthday, it is Sunday evening and you had no work today. You are at a park with your mom and two younger brothers, one 12 and the other 4. Mom had just ordered pizza from your favorite local place and you've decided to hang out by the lake and playground while you wait for the food to be done. In twenty minutes, you will have to all get back in the car and head out to pick up food, but for now your middle brother asks you to sit next to him on the swingset. You sit, and your youngest brother climbs into the third swing in the row. You all pump your legs and the air gets even chillier as you three swing high up back and forth. This will be one of the last times you swing on the swing set with them.

2) It is July 2011. You are in Bulgaria, helping with some construction work for (what was explained to you as essentially) a foster care center. It is Tuesday morning, 7am. You and your group have been staying in an old, relatively defunct church - the windows have no glass, there is a large abandoned pit behind the gymnasium area, and your room (once an office) is facing the Balkan mountains. You stand at the window while your roommate sleeps. The sun is just risen, the light still watery and weak from breaking through the night. Rows of rose bushes, swatches covering the grounds around you, evaporating dew sending the perfume into the atmosphere with intoxicating intensity. A goatherd and his dog round their half dozen goats to a grazing patch you can see behind the roses. It is one of the most beautiful things you will ever see.

3) It is October 2016. You and the person that will become and remain your best friend is in a class with you, a poetry class of some kind, and you are each entranced with the rhythm words can make just with their intonations, their breath, their weight. It is about 10:30 at night, both of you tired from work and class but still working on your assignments. You both are hanging out in your room, a single you got for being an RA, and you're sharing your work with each other. With the concoction of confidence, delight, and vulnerability that often comes from merely being in your early-20s and finding a new hobby, you take turns improvising and freestyling turns of phrases and spoken word tidbits as you get the hang of the beats of language. The walls echo with your giggles.

4) It is Christmas 2019. You moved out in July and are back at your parent's house for the holidays. Things feel weird. You love your independence and while you are with your family your irritation with their idiosyncrasies starts bubbling: your mom's constant movement, your dad's focus on explaining hockey, your brothers' chattering about shows and games you don't watch. (You realize later this is simply because they have been waiting to talk to you in person. They miss you.) At one point, your youngest brother goes to get a Lego set he'd gotten for Christmas and opened the night before. It was from the Mandalorian, and included the teeniest little Lego figure you'd ever seen, half the size of a normal one, for Baby Yoda. You squealed and called it one of the cutest things you'd ever seen. He shyly offers it to you to take home. You ask if he's sure, and he says yes and puts it next to your keys. Hours later, you start leaving. Without thinking, you leave the figure on the counter. You are backing up, out of the driveway, when your youngest brother bursts out of the front door, letting it bang hard against the house again as he runs out on the frosty concrete sidewalk in nothing but socks. He's waving his fist, and you stop. Roll down the window. He hands you the toy. "Don't forget about me," he says in a voice too small and squeaky to be his normal one, too trembly to be purely Baby Yoda. You're sorry you almost did. It won't happen again. You still carry it with you in your wallet.

5) It is March 2022. It is late afternoon, just before the sun starts sinking. The windows are open throughout your house and the central fan is on, sucking the breeze through the rooms and keeping the air fresh. You, however, are outside on your porch. Carpenter bees hover lazily just off the stairs, chasing off wasps; fat bumblebees wiggle their butts into jolly purple Asters. Your partner sits next to you. They hold their guitar, you your ukulele. You are each strumming and within a few minutes you have matched chords, and then are playing What's Up by 4 Non Blondes. When it's over and your voices and strings subside, they play a new chord. A new song comes out of you both. Every few lines one of you laughs. A year and a half later they propose to you in the same spot.

Thank you so much for asking!!

I wanted to make a cleaner summary of last week's classes and also review the classes I have this week since the material is already uploaded beforehand but I was feeling so horrible throughout the day that when I sat down I was just gonna look at the ones for tomorrow but I think I'm just gonna go to bed because I just gave my little numbers game a few tries and not even the joy of tribial elementary school-level math games is bringing my brain cells and/or full sentience back

You mentioned Roman's opinion of Mind being influenced by Heart. What do the sanders sides each think of Heart? (minus Patton, you already covered their relationship)

Conversely, what do Soul and Mind think of Patton?

AAAAAAA SORRY I HAVENT BEEN REPLYING BAND CAMP ATE ME BRIEFLY

Anyways-

I feel like in general, considering Heart’s general soft demeanor, all would at first assume he was generally pretty nice. Heart naturally grabs at people’s empathy and heartstrings and clings on, making it hard for people to take pity on him.

Overtime, though, is when this gets more interesting.

Janus would catch onto Heart’s manipulation pretty easily, and probably even warn the others about it. Virgil, who was already anxious about meeting new people, may or may not side with Janus on this.

Patton and Roman would probably become close friends with Heart. Roman would think that Janus is trying to trick them for some reason, which Patton is unsure of. Either way, Roman becomes close with Heart.

Logan would think Heart as decent. Heart does act a little bit ruder around him because Logan reminds him of Mind, but he wouldn’t be an absolute douche.

Remus loves playing pranks on Heart. He makes fun of him often and takes Mind’s side in arguments half the time (the other half, he just makes a side of his own). Heart absolutely hates Remus’ pranks, especially because he takes advantage of Heart’s blindness often.

And for Mind and Soul’s opinions of Patton?

Mind despises him. Patton reminds him of Heart, he won’t let go of Heart when Mind warns him, he sticks to Heart’s side of the argument like glue… They would not get along. (He probably would with Janus, now that I think about it.)

And Soul has a massive soft spot for Heart and Mind, and that rubs off on his view of Patton and Logan. He thinks highly of Patton, but does think that Heart could rub off on him.

Also, while we’re here: Soul looks at Patton and Logan’s relationship and immediately starts crying. Okay maybe that’s an over-exaggeration. Their relationship reminds him of Heart and Mind during Concord. They get along well, they respect each other and listen to one another. He helps them out and hangs out with them lots because of this.

[exercise cw]

went 4 a tiny lil run again, whoop whoop—remembered to track it on strava this time which is giving me a little more credit pace-wise than i gave myself yesterday, although like. whether i ~stepped it up~ or just underestimated how i did yesterday, who knows. it was significantly warmer out today, which was nice! got 2 keep my gaiter down most of the time and wear only one beanie. :)

(stats under cut 4 my own reference.)

the boy is mine | a writing exercise

excuse me, can i please talk to you for a minute? do you know somebody named...y-you know his name. oh yeah, definitely, i know his name. well, i just want to let you know that he's mine. no, no, he's mine.

hi, this is carol and i wanted to create a fun blurb writing exercise a la @superblysubpar and @chechelia considering the current state of the eddie munson x reader fandom. i, personally, can barely stand the seemingly never ending infighting between writers and groups on here. whether it be writing style or characterization, it seems everyone sort of has a problem with everyone. (not me tho, i truly am vibing). in the words of monica and brandy 'you need to give it up, had about enough'. -- so instead of leaving, i wanted to try something fun, fresh, and cute to bring us together. we all have our own eddie munson head cannons that we hold near and dear to our hearts. but i think that's part of what's fun about fandom, there's a little something for everyone. so this exercise is a way for us to all be on the same playing field -- same prompt/dialogues we have to use. only written how your personally HC eddie, our og guy (no au versions pls). i loved how this manifested on cece's old blog because it was so fun to see what people came up with. below is the dialogue and prompt as well as the best way to participate. yes, if you are a steve girl you can participate lol. if you are someone who has me blocked and/or vice versa and would like to participate, please send your link to a friend so i can add it in an upcoming masterlist.

the scene: a romantic night in at the trailer. props included/mentioned (in passing or can hold bigger meaning): a throw pillow, vanilla frosting, a small notebook. dialogue included (can be manipulated slightly if needed, can be placed in any order): - "i ran out of like, nice cups, is this okay?" - "aw, don't be like that. that's not even true." - "and you like that?" - "if you don't stop, we're gonna have a problem." these don't have to be sexy. they don't have to lead to anything. it's just a romantic night in -- and it can end in anything. angst, fluff, smut, alien invasion. who cares! i just wanna see how you'd write in your world with YOUR eddie. so we can see all of our eddies!

to participate, please write a blurb or ficlet titled 'the boy is mine (____'s edition)' and tag me so that i can add you to the upcoming masterlist. share each other's ficlets. enjoy how they differ and how they are the same. what do we all think is true? what do we differ on? i think this could be really cool.

here's a list of people i'm tagging from different 'x reader' groups to spread the word -- but everyone feel free to do it, please! share with your friends, encourage your friends to do it too: @loveshotzz @chechelia @abibliophobiaa @aphrogeneias @jo-harrington @bewilderedbunny @impmunson @queenimmadolla @oneforthemunny @superblysubpar @sweetsweetjellybean @rebelfell @crappymixtape @lesservillain @courtingchaos @bettyfrommars @somnambulic-thing @bimbobaggins69 @blueywrites @lonelysatellites @wroteclassicaly @wheels-of-despair @rip-quizilla @upsidedownwithsteve @powderblueblood
