#going through the motions of life

[mochiwrites]

being so honest I don’t understand how people can expect you to be doing things constantly every single day. I’m supposed to be on summer break but my university expects me to send in 80 sources for my senior thesis by next week

the very thought of doing school work right now makes me want to cry. I can’t even open a blank document and start writing for my own fics. I can’t even engage in my own hobby right now because I’m so mentally exhausted. how can you expect me to do thesis work? I’ve hardly had a break since finals

my personal life has been an ongoing shitshow since last summer. and has only gotten worse in recent months. how can you expect someone to function in society when you throw one thing after another at them?

I’m so tired and done. but I have no choice other than pushing through it because that’s what’s expected of me! that’s exhausting

okay but what if seeing quirkless pro hero Deku on the news inspires quirkless former-pro Takami Keigo to try the whole hero thing again, but this time on his own terms

the thing i keep thinking back to over and over about i saw the tv glow is when owen is like "i have a family of my own now. i love them a lot" and then you NEVER see them, not even a sound, it's just a blip, they're just an empty motion...

Luke dies. Ethan lives, gets assigned long term punishment as a wanderer by the gods, and takes backbiter as his own weapon. Alabaster gets assigned the same punishment and resents Luke. Alabaster and Ethan meet. Discuss.

A game just like Sims but dark and gloomy would be extremely good... Something like living in a town run by a cult or demons and just trying to live a normal life... Or we could choose to get involved or save the town or make it better or destroy it entirely...

the fun thing about this series is that some characters have really absurd backstories which means i get to give my self insert some bullshit too. he loves phone more than god

[fluffypotatey]

The book has canon poly, so it hurts even more bc polyamory as a concept actively exists in the universe (polyamory always exists, but you know what I mean)

AND IT WOULD HAVE SAVED THEM!!!!! IT WASNT STIGMATIZED SO THE SOLUTION IS RIGHT THERE

[lilhawkens]

gotta love the juxtaposition of

oh my god i am so fatigued what if my baseline has shifted to this whatever will i do i don't wanna live like this

AND

there's nothing wrong with me i am faking everything and i am just a horrible person and my labs are gonna confirm it oh NO

in my brain bc WHAT

riding a wave of depression to the end of the worst year of my life and realizing that there’s not really anyone i feel safe confiding in… cool, cool, very cool…

the struggles of writing smut (series edition)

where were we?

going back to the previous chapter to see which room they were in 

“…as he lifts her up and presses her against the wall”; previous chapter: they were on a bed

vice versa for this version: “she clenches her fingers around the bedsheets beneath her…”; previous chapter: they were in the living room

did this character give the other a nickname?

going back to the previous chapter to see if they’re naked yet

“…he rips her panties off her skin”; previous chapter: he already stole her panties

and vice versa for this version: “she falls breathless as she watches him smoothly taking his suit off and start unbuttoning his shirt…”; previous chapter: he’s already shirtless

when they’re climaxed/finished and the main/male character wipes his partner clean with his shirt that was tossed in the other room a few chapters ago

“…as he runs his fingers through her silky hair”; previous chapter: her hair is thick and curly

I knew Micah wasn’t a great guy but I was a fool to think he had any redeeming traits.

Just wrote an email coming out as nonbinary to the hardest conceivable group: the 5 girls I was friends with in middle school because one of them is inviting us to her pre-wedding Girls Trip And Witchy Women Time. Yikes.

i think twelve and clara are starting to make sense to me but i don't think it's what moffat intended or how the ppl that like them see their dynamic

[dieletztepanzerhexe]

i rewatched Fantastic Planet yesterday after a good few years, i didn't remember much bc the last time i saw it i was on a high dose of DXM. man, it's such a great disturbing film with beautiful alien lifeforms. and technology!!! i love experimental animations that try to show technology completely different from anything we know

[trevisos]

okay so i realized there’s honestly no way in hell magpie would let illario walk free. because what i’ve realized about magpie is she gets angry when she recognizes herself in someone else and doesn’t like what she sees. and she is in soooo many ways such a mirror of illario that there’s no way she doesn’t see it. and in her mind she MUST prove she isn’t like illario. that she could never do what he’s done. that she’s loyal to her family and that whatever power or influence she now has (for better or for worse) she has earned without hurting the people she loves. and the best way to do that is to kill that man dead. she’s honestly surprised when lucanis *doesn’t* kill him despite it being obvious from the jump that he was never going to LMAO. she’s so fixated on proving she’s different from him and that she can NEVER be him that the idea that lucanis will show mercy is beyond her. because once again Crow Business is like a black hole where much of her higher reasoning goes to die in favor of lessons taught to her through torture and bloodshed in her youth <3 yay <3
