Bakugou groans when the fast food worker does a double take of him waiting in line at the Drive-Thru, the McDonald’s on the outskirts of Central Musutafu the only place open after two am.

He probably should’ve changed out of his hero costume before turning up to the restaurant, but when he received a call from you just before the end of his shift he knew it was an emergency. The adorable, sleepy lilt to your voice had him dropping everything in favour of sourcing nuggets in the early hours.

Only his pregnant wife could coax him away from his regular commute to pick up something that should satiate the cravings, thankful that somewhere was still open so he didn’t have to disappoint you with something from the local kombini.

Sending you a tired selfie with the bag safely in the passengers seat before making his way home to you🥺

Last night, I unwittingly went for dinner to an Italian restaurant packed with the post-theatre crowd in Covent Garden. It was late when I was walking back to my hotel, and along the way I somehow got adopted by three British guys (and one Australian). Bumped into them on the street where they'd just come from seeing Doctor Strangelove in the West End, and we got to talking about New Jersey and English accents and the Crown Jewels and things I should see in London (which somehow alternated between them being enthusiastic about some things and then saying "London is a bit shit"). Oh, and they raved about Steve Coogan, and how everyone here loves him and there is a statue of him.

They were complimentary and said how beautiful I was with my red hair, yet aghast when I said that I am here to see Macbeth (instead of calling it "The Scottish Play"). The guys also shepherded me along when some weird man came up to our group, and while few of them sort of peeled off as we kept going, two stayed and walked me back to my hotel in a very gentlemanly fashion (one--who was married, but also autistic and asked first before giving me a hug--even kissed the back of my hand). I don't know if I give off "damsel in distress" vibes or what (though I was actually fine), but that was one night I will never forget...

so there's a reason my new job got back to me so quickly about my application and that's bc it's an absolute fucking shambles like actually perfect timing for me to decide to rewatch the bear bc i have never more felt like ive been thrown into a broke on-its-knees establishment trying to crawl its way up the ladder where i am somehow a godsend to them. my old job was crazy and shambolic in the sense that the industry is just Like That but this one?????? insanity. every 5 mins i am questioning what im doing with my life. ive already had a walk-in fridge moment

you know what, I actually will talk about this because it's bothering me. The issue with focussing so heavily on syd and carmy's potential for a romantic relationship isn't that there's something inherently unintellectual about romance or whatever, it's that a lot of people seem incapable of doing that without immediately flattening the story and ignoring or intentionally misreading any and all nuance for the sake of that romance. Every scene suddenly becomes about how it impacts their relationship, every analysis is done through a romantic lens, every frame or line of dialogue becomes about finding some easter egg or hint that "proves" these people should start dating. Their dynamic is absolutely a fundamental part of this show, but if you can only see it as a will-they-won't-they, you miss so much of what the story is actually trying to say with these two.

There are good versions of this story where their relationship is romantic and there are good versions of this story where it isn't, but as soon as you decide them being together is "the point," you lose the ability to actually judge the story for what it is, not what you want it to be.

I hate how whenever there's someone on the internet who's found their niche of something they're good at, you open the comments and so many are asking them to start a business around it. you make good looking food? when are you opening a restaurant/making a cookbook? you're a talented seamstress/crocheter/knitter? when are you making patterns/opening a shop/etc. those are very different skill sets and levels of effort! can't people have skills and hobbies in peace instead of trying to monetize them it's so exhausting

Tagged by @soyouwinagain to post 6 photos from my camera roll in the past week, thank you comrade, I was hoping someone would tag me 🫡🫡 except then I had to go back a couple weeks otherwise all six photos would have been my dog at a cocktail garden.

Ivan Fedotov and Erik Johnson at Flyers training camp, Fedotov in full Russian saint mode; a flower outside of an Indian restaurant; Yankees outfielders running away from each other and I'm so mad I only got them running back to position bc they were being SO cute while a reliever was warming up; Keats at the aforementioned cocktail garden, he was sweatin'; giant rotting boat outside of Ikea; boxes containing all of my earthly possessions.

imagine if the Terraria bosses were on tumblr. what would they even post

I actually find gender swapping characters really interesting (what part of their expression is dictated by gender norms vs certain events in their life vs their personal preferences that wouldn't change either way, etc.) so now I wanna draw what that would look like in my ocs except I am in pain rn so I'm forced to just lie there and be plagued by visions

(late)Day 18 of OC-tober: Swap!

I did a backstory swap of Mako and Ticid

More info under cut!

I choose these two because they both have magic infused backstorys. Ticid was raised as an assassin and his magic was shunned for being easy/cheating/able to backfire/ and a general clash in belief. After taking on a murder commission he chased down Charles in his home, pinning him against a wall and seeing his absolutely terrified face and prompting change(usually his victims are ambushed without time to react but Charles DOES NOT leave his house often)

Mako is great at blood magic which was historically used for crime and is considered unethical but, they used their own blood (often fainting) and continued until a close friend/lover used them, pinning the blame and landing them in jail. After their jail (and local village) burnt to the ground they escaped and got burn scars from their shackles and muzzle (sharp shark teeth so ya). Eventually they landed in the restaurant they currently live in and escaped The Horrors™ (I mean not forever but y'know).

Design notes

First big difference is the horn swap forcing ticid's to have been broken off

Ticid is missing a hand because canonly Mako did alot of struggling to get out of their shackles and burns don't show up well on exoskeletons but it is far easier to lose a joint due to the construction of Ticid's

Mako has a different weapon (kinda scythe like) instead of their halberd. To me I associate halberds as very protective due to their knight imagery while scythes are a practical tool use to cut things quickly.

Mako has a lost fin from a difficult victim who needed to be chased down (I don't think Charles would exist as he does in cannon so no terrified seamstress here)

Mako has no mostly washed out hair dye and Ticid's dreads are tied securely into a bun (mako usually has short hair so it can't be snatched up and grabbed while he keeps it up)

If The Bite of ‘87 isn’t in the second FNaF movie I will get violent I think

New favorite thing about writing this arranged marriage AU: I can be as self-indulgent with historical detail as I want! 🤓🥹🥰

That's one of those things that it's easy to know intellectually but hard to internalize until the actual writing process. Hope y'all are ready to learn about the following representative sample of topics in excruciating detail:

Sauna construction

Food preservation (subtitle: I just think it's neat that borts is more nutritious than modern field rations)

The internal social politics of patrician families in Late Republican Rome*

Horse archery

Archeology at Pompeii*

Guerilla warfare and supply lines

Aqueducts

✨CLOAKS✨

The Battle of Teutoburg Forest*

For now I'm choosing to blame most of this on Stede's autistic coding (cough my own projection cough) but that's really just an excuse. An excuse I'm thrilled to hide behind for my own sanity in the decade it's gonna take me to finish this thing if I continue to keep getting so distracted by research/inventing mythology that will inform the worldbuilding but not make it into the fic with any actual detail.

And you can't stop me!!!!

*this is more inspiration than anything because it's not set in our world and therefore not in actual Rome but you you know what I mean
