#it’s causing me physical distress

RicNation, as optimistic as I am about #ricbull2024, I really don’t think the filming day in Imola is going to about the second RBR seat…perhaps…maybe…it is about the second VCARB seat…as much as I don’t want to admit it. Why else would they be driving the 2022 AT car?

Anyways, I hope for the sake of Lawson, Perez and Daniel’s careers that the filming day goes smoothly and that they base their final decision on solid data (please please please please please sign Daniel for next year, idc where, any contract will do)

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

I don't think I realized how overstimulated and stressed out I get until I started wearing noise-canceling headphones pretty much 90% of the time and the special glasses I wear over the top of my RX glasses that filter my peripheral vision as well as provide extra light blocking.

Usually, I'm not even listening to anything on the headphones; I'm just filtering out the sounds of everything else. No more sound of traffic outside, no more low electrical humming that no one else seems able to hear. Just me and my thoughts, which are actually a lot more coherent when I'm not battling the noise of the world just to literally try and hear myself think.

It's nice.

I would prefer it if doing tasks didn't feel like mentally shoving my brain through a cheese grater

...Did they seriously just advocate for playing the Ace Attorney series out of order? No way, they did not just do that.

Not playing Ace Attorney in order is absolutely detrimental to your experience of the story. Sure most games recap the events of the previous ones. But hearing about these events in strings of dialog isn't the same as seeing them unfold in game.

There's absolutely no way to connect with certain games properly without playing in order. If you start with aa4, you're not going to care about a random washed-up disbarred attorney. Because you haven't experienced his story yet! Imagine playing investigations collection without knowing who Edgeworth is! It takes away so many elements from the story if you have no baseline knowledge of the timeline.

I really need to revamp my aliens au because I stole so many concepts from that AU and shoved them into CS as I had written the initial Aliens post a bit before CS was created. Now I want to make it fresh but still creature-feature with the boys—just Alien Edition™

Just to list off a few things I originally envisioned for this AU:

Sun and Moon can hear heartbeats. Specifically hear, unlike the cryptid boys who have a whole sense for it, but nonetheless, the whole heart awareness started here. I'm thinking of maybe changing this to Alien!Sun/Moon picking up on Y/N's breathing or scrapping it entirely.

Y/N is enthusiastic and wants to study the boys. I think Scientist Y/N can bypass the whole fear thing pretty easily and go straight to nerding out, whereas CS!Y/N is very much in denial about their excitement, and rationalizes it as 'for the hunt'. I think I can make it interesting via scientist Y/N for the Aliens AU even if it's still a concept of 'wants to learn about an intriguing subject that now involves the boys'. Just different flavors.

Sun/Moon eating very unpleasant things. Of course, cryptid boys eat hearts, but the alien boys are just hungry for any kind of meat, and hey, with a desolate and dark ship filled with recently slaughtered humans, it's kind of an all-you-can-eat buffet.

That's the summary of concept similarities, but I do want to focus on the difference, such as, of course:

there being two alien creatures.

how different everything will function in a setting within space/spaceship.

a language barrier between scientist Y/N, and Sun and Moon.

a focus on Y/N's physical trauma with their blown-off arm. They're going to want to make the journey through the desolate spaceship to retrieve said arm that has been preserved and then need to get to the medical bay (think protective cylinder) to hopefully have the ship's installed medical AI and tools perform surgery to reattach it, which is a big risk when there's something else roaming the gray halls that even intimidating and powerful aliens Sun and Moon would rather Y/N doesn't encounter.

Sun and Moon also have their own designs and special abilities relating to their celestial themes as well as indulging in freaky monster details, like Moon's 'nightcap'. It is extremely long and acts as a sensitive feeler for things in the air and is somewhat prehensile. Sun's sun rays have more purpose than just being pointy and armor-plate-like, as well as having those same plates on his spine, and he almost seems to be on the brink of being too hot, sometimes radiating heatwaves like an oven.

their alien design is a mix of translucent, starry, and colored flesh, almost like jelly but smooth and slightly cool and moist to the touch, coating the bones of Fazco brand endoskeletons.

their legs are digitigrade.

their mouths are wide and look like they're smiling all the time, but their mouths can get bigger and open even wider, especially when they're eating/attacking—it's as if their entire face is going to split in half but nope, that's just to let out their other teeth.

That's all I have for now. I want to think about it some more.

Seeing Elizabeth Keen X Raymond Reddington Gives Me Physical Distress/Srs

Now, Usually, Do I Shit On People For Shipping Age Gaps? No (As Long As They're Both LEGAL ADULTS).

Do I Shit On People For Shipping Straight Ships? Also No (Unless One Or Both Are Explicitly Attracted To Just The Same Gender).

But Something About... Lizzington Just... Irks Me (Cough Cough, S.5, E.1 Cough Cough)
