#i am not built for socializing

[applesandbannas747]

one of the downsides to being the cool teacher or whatever is kids will just invite me to shit and I'm like besTIE I don’t know what to do with thissss

[nicecrumbart]

I like the way you draw Scott, may I beg you to draw happy empires season one flower husbands?

attempting 2 be social once again (i replied to 1 dm and am on the floor)

[wombywoo]

do you also have a bluesky account, perhaps?

I....do? So a friend gave me access to it when it was still invite-only, I spent 20+ minutes trying to customize my banner image which did not fit !!! then I promptly never used the site again 💁‍♀️

apologies to anyone who recommended this website to me, I shan't be using it :'D

unfortunately the world is too fucking messed up so I am currently unable to give a shit about how messed up everything is because it's all too big and if I get upset about any of it my entire ability to be a person will come crashing in

normal service will resume as soon as possible

i have this feeling like every forty minutes probably but stuff is so old? i don't know why i have a continually renewed sense of surprise at how old things are, maybe because i am a white suburbanite from the united states, which places me in the middle of several forces conspiring to sell facile newness, & those premised on cruelty? but the shape of the book, the paper, the pen with its internal ink supply & rollerball tip; the sourdough starter, the careful formulae for its maintenance; the vegetables, their long lines of antecedents under careful cultivation; the names for things. old!!!

uni hates to see me coming (i want to kill myself)

Oh, I forgot to use this picture anywhere! It's been an exhausting, EXHAUSTING spring, including the painting, including the paneling, including a trip to nj to retrieve a pile of furniture, including way too much crochet for human hands to safely endure. But the guest room is coming together! The lips are probably getting evicted to the next guest room over (music/manga room), because the Horrors have faded enough that I'm itching for my next paint job, and I think it's going to be a pink and red palette. Just having one vibrant room in my house makes me so happy already, I simply HAVE to continue

Actually, you know what, have these curio cabinets too, because I'm delighted with how they turned out. More gifted old furniture finally giving me a dignified residence for my knickknacks. Pls note the tasteful heavy bookbinding objects on the bottom shelves definitely because they're pretty and not because I almost tipped these things over more than once before getting them anchored to the walls

just a vacation rant under the cut dont mind me lol

was visiting my husbands family & staying in his brother house for a week. very nice of them. nice home. HOWEVER (and tell me if I'm the one who's crazy) large group of family members came over to visit. totally cool hang had brunch it was nice. but they were there FROM 11:30AM TO 9PM

I was going INSANE. and I couldn't leave!!! at about 4ish I cracked and was like nope. enough. locked myself in the room with the lights off, pretending I was napping but was actually watching videos.

kept texting my husband when are they leaving when are they leaving WHEN--

and then at 7 his brother and wife (their house) left as they already had other plans. you'd think, surely, their guests would disperse. NOPE. they party rocked until their kids were ready to pass out

so anyways I don't plan on going there again anytime soon

[quixoticanarchy]

sometimes. the best plan is canceled plan

yk i always loved how in robin and gary's livestreams as medic and heavy, they always give them such dorky wholesome personalities, like those excitable fun grandpas, i'm surprised i don't see them characterized that way more often in fanworks

I think it's because the two recognized how fun it'd be to bounce off each other if they did since i recall gary being a improv actor at one point (and currently a teacher for that kind of acting!)

(insert ramble here along the lines of 'improv being the ability to adapt to another person's ideas without fully rejecting it' '"yes and" instead of a "no" being the ultimate rule of improv' yadda yadda)

This is the face of a person whose family has still not left as of Sunday night at 6:30pm.

Rest in peace to any sliver of weekend I was hoping to have this afternoon.

Should I tag you or just mention your name when I post my hospital Dirk fanart?

oh tag it, I would like to see... can't guarantee a response but I do like to see when people make such things it makes me quite happy....

20 questions for writers

thank you @adelfie for the tag<3

1. How many works do you have on AO3?

18! (and one hidden). i did not think it was that many??? thought it was 10 tops, lol

2. What’s your total AO3 word count?

272,860

3. What fandoms do you write for?

batman, used to write some dsmp, but now im kinda eeh about it. i also (for some godforsaken reason) have a harry potter WIP thats been sitting in my docs for like two years that i kinda wanna finish, kinda not (jk r*wling suck my dick challenge)

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

cards on the table

when in gotham: don’t drink the water

robin radio

o bury me not on the lone prairie

and their dreams they dreamed awake

5. Do you respond to comments?

i try!!!! the number overwhelms me sometimes, but i try to answer when i have the energy! :,)

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

oh god, i mean… i pretty much only write happy/hopeful endings🤠 mayyyybe ‘you have (1) new message’? its not all the way angsty but it’s kind of?? angsty??

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

gee whizz buddy see above and take your pick, really

8. Do you get hate on fics?

i have gotten one (1) hate comment and i treasured it dearly until the person that posted it deleted it😭 other than that, nawt really. some people give unsolicited advice/critique, but thats about it

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

nope. not really my thing

10. Do you write crossovers?

again, not really my thing.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

not that i know of! sure hope it stays that way

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

yesss!!! so cool! they asked permission, and now my fic exists in a whole other language!!!

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

no, and i think i’d be really awful at it. i cant say no to stuff, i cant keep deadlines, and i dont enjoy people being in the kitchen when i cook, so to speak

14. What’s your all-time favourite ship?

BAYBEY!! you KNOW i was a klance shipper first and a human second when i was like? 14? now tho? i’m shipping myself with sixteen hours of sleep and financial freedom. but also, deep in my heart,,,, charlie and carlisle from twilight. you could have been so beautiful.

15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you will?

man at this point, who knows what i’ll finish. maybe instant repeater ‘99. i LOVE the concept and the world building. but also i kinda left the fandom,,,

16. What are your writing strengths?

people (including my interactive storytelling teacher) have told me im good at writing distinct characters/realistic dialogue! so i guess that! :,D

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

CONSISTENCY. finishing things. ending up hating what i’ve written like 3 months after it’s done.

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in a fic?

well,,, that’s what i always do. english is another language to me! cop out answer, lmao. but other than that, i guess i could be persuaded to write a few lines in spanish here and there. did study it for 7 years, after all.

overall, i thinks it pretty cool! as long as there is an ez translation somewhere, easy to understand without a translation, or if it’s not done in a way that bi/multilinguals absolutely would not speak B)

19. First fandom you wrote for?

oh god. percy jackson. it’s still out there somewhere. i forgot my username and password so i’ll prolly never find it (thank god) but yeah. it was solangelo bc i was closeted and emo.

20. Favourite fic you’ve written?

probably ‘mothman is real and he wants to kill me’. i had a lot of fun with it! i also really like ‘*cocks gun* manor’s haunted’ just because i based it off of the haunting of hill house which is like, one of the best books ever.

that was fun!!! thanks again for the tag! <3 i’m tagging whoever wants to do this, and also (no pressure) @quotidian-oblivion

puss å kram, skumbanan!!❤️
