quick doodle from last night for your troubles

[phantomrose96]

Our building washing machine broke. And I've ordered a new one but the processing and delivery is a whole thing so in the meantime I'm in Laundromat City. And luckily the nearest laundromat is like barely a block away and it sits on this 1.25-mile triangle of streets that I sometimes run laps on. So really not a bad deal since I can put in laundry and then do my run until it finishes.

But I can't shake this perspective that I'm like, I throw my clothes in the big wet machine and get so excited about it I have to go be zoomie about it in circles for 30 minutes until the machine stops and I take my wet clothes back. Apex predator behavior.

Prompt 3 - Historical AU

@wolfstarmicrofic April 3, word count 706

The carriage bumped and bounced along the road towards London. It was doing nothing to help Remus’s sore body. He’d used his last coin to hire this abysmal transport to get him home, too tired to walk the final few miles.

At some point, he must have dozed off. He woke sliding off the bench as the carriage came to a sudden halt. He pulled himself into a sitting position and spotted the line of trees on either side of the carriage through its windows. This wasn’t London. So why were they stopping? 

“Stand and deliver! Your money or your life!” A strong voice called out. He heard a thump and the sound of fleeing footsteps. 

A trickle of fear ran through Remus because, if he wasn’t very much mistaken, it sounded like his driver had just abandoned him to a highway robbery. 

He heard the crunch of sauntering boots approaching the carriage door. He didn’t have a gun or anything to protect himself with. He had no idea what he was going to do. 

The handle clicked down, and slowly, the door swung open to reveal a broad-shouldered man with long dark curls and high cheekbones. Half of his face was covered with a fine black scarf with two eyeholes cut out of it. He missed the words the man spoke as Remus found himself lost in the stormy grey eyes that stared down at him. 

S-s-sorry. What did you say?” He stammered when those wild eyes narrowed at him. 

“I told you to turn out your pockets, pretty boy.” The highwayman smirked at him. Remus swallowed but did as he was told.

He had a handkerchief, a tattered notebook and pencil, and a cloth with a wedge of cheese and half an apple wrapped tightly in it. The highwayman did not look impressed. 

“Purse,” He ordered. Remus held it out to him. The man snatched it and pulled the strings apart. He greedily looked inside. His brow furrowed, and he looked back up at Remus, confusion clouding his eyes. “Did you swallow it?” He asked. “Or have you hidden it elsewhere?” His eyes flicked down to Remus’s britches, implying heavily where he suspected Remus to have hidden his possessions. Remus shook his head. 

“No, I swear I used my last coin to hire this,” He gestured to the carriage. “I was heading home and couldn’t walk any further.” He met the highwayman’s eyes sadly. “Please, I don’t have anything. Believe me, I’d give it to you if I did, but I don’t. Unless you want my dinner?” He laughed weakly. He had no idea why he was making a joke in this situation, but something about the man made him. 

“Wait, that’s your dinner? In its entirety?” The highwayman asked. Remus shrugged. He’d had less. “Boots?” The highwayman tried instead. Remus held up his almost worn-through shoes. The leather was so thin in places you could almost see through it. The highwayman huffed and ran his fingers frustratedly through his hair. “Right, that’s it. You’re coming with me.” Remus paled. 

“I must warn you I won’t be worth much. I’m regularly ill, and my joints are almost constantly sore.” 

“That’s not what I meant.” The highwayman chuckled quietly. “We have plenty of food back at the camp, and I was inviting you to come and get something warm.”

“Oh,” Remus didn’t know what to say to that. So he just blinked, slightly overwhelmed. “I do need to be getting home.” He looked around. It couldn’t be that hard to drive one of these things. The highwayman seemed to sense what he was thinking. 

“I’m taking the horse and carriage.”

“In that case, I’d be honoured to accompany you for dinner.” He held out his hand, accepting his fate and going with it. “Remus,” He introduced himself. 

“Sirius,” The highwayman took his hand. He bent his head low and brushed his lips across Remus’s knuckles. Oh, Remus thought, his brain short-circuiting. Gently, he pulled Remus’s hand until Remus was on his feet. He followed him willingly into the forest. Leaving the rest of the robbers, whom he hadn’t even noticed while being enchanted by Sirius, to remove any signs that they’d been there at all.

What plants are you gonna put in your garden? The most successful thing I’ve grown are cucumbers

So far I've got tomatoes, peppers, and ground cherry started but they don't go out till may. I've turned my entire yard into a garden slowly, so I've got peas, beans, tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, melons, summer squash, and cucumbers along with some other stuff. I keep trying cucumbers but I've been having bad luck out back so I'm trying out front this year.

This year I'm trying to grow a really wide variety, we eat out of the garden at least 3 meals a week in the summer. I might do the farmers market if things go well and I have extra produce. They double food stamps and seniors get vouchers for fresh produce and eggs but there's hardly any sellers and very little variety.

THE MILLION DOLLAR BABY 🤲🏾

[spdraws]

Going to an art store with my dad and brother was such a fun experience. Entire time was spent in conversation such as this:

Me: I was hoping to find Prismacolor Colerase individualy here, but they only have the 12 and 20 sets.

Paternal unit: Well, what are those? *points at display*

Me: Those are Prismacolor Premier. Those are softer, better for coloring, but not as good for sketching because Colerase has a harder lead.

Paternal Unit: *stares blankly*

Paternal unit: You're speaking another language, babe.

Me: This is how I feel when you talk about motorcycles.

(kind of a request) what’s the height difference like between your jodie and scam?
