#it's like a half hour drive

Seasmith Gothic
The howls of the wolves always seem to get closer to the house as the full moon approaches, then further again after.
The seals watch you, seeming to follow you as you walk down the beach. Later you meet a girl. She and the seals have the same eyes.
You hear scratching at the window. In the morning, you look outside. The tree at the window has grown more limbs.
The bonfire is bright tonight. It's best not to acknowledge it unless you're invited or previously have been.
The moss in the woods seems to grab at your shoes. You swear you saw a patch of moss that looked like a human outline earlier.
The drive to Powell River isn't that long, is it? Have you been driving in circles? You should have gotten there at 12 pm, but it's 8 pm now.
You find the old guy who hangs out in the bakery chanting in the woods. It's just another Tuesday.
The cold seeps into your skin and gnaws on your bones.
The fog swallows everything. You better get inside before it takes you with it.
You find moon phase calendars in your grandparents' attic. They date all the way back to when they were first married. Your grandfather died on the night of a full moon.
(These are all the entries in an ever growing Google doc right now. Some are better than others, but I hope this gives you somewhat of an idea of the setting and some plot points mayhaps)

When she Half on my Life till I 2
#Spoofsart#Gordon Freeman#halflife2#half life#Alyx Vance#Freemance#PlatonicFreemance#can be seen as romantic if youd like! i like both versions of freemance! ^^ i just personally adore platonic freenance#seriously tho freemance is such an interesting ship ( platonic or romantic ) im gonna yap about platonic freemance cuz i wanna.#SPOILERS AHEAD !!!!#i always like to imagine that when alyx was told about gordon and who he was/what he did during the Resonance Cascade. all of it was a mix#of stories told by civilians and her dad and Kliner and Barney! all painting him as this heroic silent fearless hero who trashed his way out#of black mesa with nothing bu a crowbar! the aliens and HECU feared him yadda yadda yadda! but then when she ACTUALLY MEETS HIM#SEES HIM FOR HERSELF. hes all beaten up on the ground in his civvies and she had to save him from the civil patrol cops 😭#pathetic little loser meow meow bark woof awwooo whgrhrgrgrgr (im love gordon- )#and she still has that “celebrity crush” ordeal with him#but after hours of fighting alongside him she learns that hes not what the stories painted him out to be#hes just some guy#during ep 2 when youre driving around with alyx. i like to imagine that during every pitstop Gordon just looks around finds nick nacks#thingamajigs and other stuff and shows it to Alyx. like letting his guard down and actually being human instead of in a constant state of#locking in and surviving yknow? anyway where was i? yeah they bond during the roadtrip to whiteforest#small moments of acting like stupid little kids together! and its during these moments that alyx realizes that shes happy with being gordon#s best friend! not a downgrade at all tho#friendships can be just as fun as relationships!#i see romantic and platonic as equals mmkay#anyway where was i?#yeah i drew this on Magma with a good friend of mine ^^ Razzmtazz!!!!#love drawing HL2 it rewired my brain.#love yall even tho i dont post much if at all 😭#i swear im cooking - gaben

Day 11: Wander
Wandering…sneaking…it’s all semantics, really…
#inktober#inktober2023#hp#harry potter#tom riddle#tomarry#tomarrymort#my art#fanart#yes I know this is a day late 😭#my cell signal AND wifi went out yesterday afternoon and didn’t come back until 2pm today#and on top of that I had the workday from hell#had to drive to an Exxon half an hour away and put my laptop on a hotspot#and our dumbass deployment had dumbass errors that took forever to pin down#I haven’t even done day 12’s drawing so it’s about to look like hot garbage :)

I hate daylight savings time, it’s 5pm why is it completely dark outside.
#I’ve got half an hour of work left and then have to drive home but it’s really dark#I hate driving in the dark especially because it’s all like 70mph country roads between work and home

this job has so far been extremely uneventful which also freaks me out because I'm like. What's the catch when is it going to start attacking me
#maybe the catch is i get up at 3:45 am drive half an hour and sort mail and lift boxes all day#idk i keep expecting someone to start harrassing me or yelling or having a medical emergency or an active shooter to break in#like i'm just waiting for it to activate my fight or flight but it's not yet and THAT'S activating my fight or flight#idk why i'm acting like some type of scared Creature like a shivering rodent or something#anyway. i'm waiting for the therapist office to start making calls back in January so until then y'all get to just overhear this#two days into this job and i have not cried on my way home! low bar but previous jobs have not passed it

I have been trying to leave the airport for nearly 2 hours. I am going to lose my fucking mind.
#Ride couldn't get there cause of an ambulance/cops blocks the exit#No taxis coming in#No buses for half an hour then every bus at once#The bus is changing its label as people board#I miss my stop because of no signage ir announcement and not knowing where I'm going#Now I'm doing a loop all the way around on this bus again#And the driver stopped driving to come back to me and be like wtf where are you going#Insane sir. I am going insane.

Living in a crucial swing state is a fucking mess in the lead up to an election like i'm getting seven million texts a day, gotten FULLY stopped in traffic on three separate occasions this week because candidates are visiting (police cars everywhere, highways closed, etc), and you genuinely will need a snowplow to clear all the campaign signs once this thing is over plus I had to wait three hours in line to early vote last week BUT I DID IT
#plus i had to drive past that orange fucking asshole's plane today when i passed the airport and eugghhhhhhhhh#election bitching#i was stuck for half an hour in one spot the other day and was like 'guess i've gotta look up which candidate is here now'#pls nc can we go blue again i believe in us#I'm so stressed about this fucking election#like i know everybody is i'm just venting about it

Oh, also, seeing your oc interact with the warners at a grocery store made me start imagining yakko and dot cart surfing down the aisles while wakko works very seriously and politely to buy a candy bar from self checkout.
Grocery store warner shenanigans is everything to me now
I couldn't stop thinking about this
#my doodles#animaniacs#torra and the warners#torra oc#yakko warner#wakko warner#dot warner#i was waiting for this file to pop up for like half an hour jeez#thanks one drive for being slow as ass

I feel a bit like an asshole.
#One of my friends is gonna be in my state for her honeymoon cruise#And we've been friends for almost 7 years now#Never met in person before#And I'd be stoked to meet her but the last few years she's realized she has DID#So I'm not gonna be meeting HER but an alter of her that I'm not the biggest fan of#I don't hate this alter or whatever but I don't like her enough to drive 3 hours to go see her#And I have to pretend like I'm speaking to someone who is like. Occupying my friend's body?#I can't talk about any memories cause she'll be all like 'I didn't go through that with you. It was my other alter"#And it's like#Oh my gosh lmao#I've left her on read but I have to reply#I wouldn't have to make the drive for another 3 months and a half but I'm kinda turned off by the idea#Even if DID is bullshit#She doesn't think so#So I'm gonna have to play along#And I'm not sure about alla dat 😭

writing about car travel set in the uk is so strange. I'll be thinking okay, the distance between these two places is far and they're traveling by car. A long car ride for me would be at least three hours, but upwards of five before I'd add the word 'really' in front of long, right?
But in the UK people don't go on car rides for four or five hours, they wouldn't just do that. They would take a train or a plane, yeah? That's like a whole day of travel, and that's not what I'm intending it to be.
So then I'm like, alright, it's two hours. But is that still to much? I'll just say almost two hours so that some people can pretend that it's an hour and a half or traffic or whatever.
#fel talks to the void#this came up a lot when I was writing all this time#and here i am grappling again lol#i love a car ride#i'll drive two hours to spend half a day at the beach and then two hours home in a day#like i do that a few times every summer on my own#it's great

family line, conan gray || jujutsu kaisen chapter 219 || antigone, tr. anne carson || flu game, fall out boy
my thoughts on the latest chapter [id in alt text]
#megumi fushiguro#jjk#tsumiki fushiguro#<- in spirit#i have no coherent words of my own so take a small collection of words from others#gave myself an actual stomachache this weekend bc i thought abt megumi for more than five minutes so uh. i'm doing fine#anyway this came to me in a vision while driving home friday morning like an hour and a half after reading the chapter so. enjoy or whateve#jjk spoilers#jjk 219#hello grace here#also flu game is so megumicoded it hurts#i've got all this love i've got to keep to myself. all this effort to make it look effortless..#i will refrain from writing a full analysis on why it's a megumi song disguised as a fic rn#but know that it is in my mind. slowly marinating.
