#let’s move on shall we?

[bobbie-robron]

It’s gone past that. All I know is that Robert and me have to be together. (Part 1)

It’s awkward at the breakfast table but Jack still gives Robert his birthday present, a day in a racing car. Shall we put everything behind us now? At the garage, Len just babbles on but Robert’s totally distracted. Andy’s confused about why Victoria’s talking again. Jack continues to keep a tight rein on Robert and Katie while offering to speak to Zoe and be a guarantor for a loan if Andy wants to still buy the farm. Katie talks to Chas about the debacle with Robert and Andy (‘I wasn’t destined to be a farmer’s wife, shouldn’t even be married at my age’). Katie shows up at Jack’s… she has something to say to him and Robert.

If that shirt is the 6x01 shirt Im literally flinging myself into the sun with you. Everyday I think about how they were notttt talking about lucy and being captain at all in that scene. The subtext was HEAVY

I shall arrange transport for us all to fling ourselves into the sun!

I have so many thoughts about the lasagne of it all - that metaphor has been so so loud since we got that 601 dinner at Bucks scene and the subtext of that scene still makes me feel unhinged! It just makes me more convinced than ever that we were going to get canon Buddie in s6 - had that been the end of the show and it not been picked up by ABC!

I’m so feral right now that I just don’t know what to do with myself!

maintenance guy just showed up at my door unannounced to check out something i reported yesterday...on the one hand loving this prompt service. on the other hand, give a broad some warning. i am in my pajamas and the place is a sty. but he might actually fix a thing that's been bugging me for over a decade, so that would be nice. not that that was urgent, obviously. so i would have appreciated a heads-up.

Hi Rain, sorry to bother you with this, but did you really say Jk was more upset with Jin leaving than he was about Taehyung?

Hi anon!

I find it a bit odd that people are asking me to defend myself. It actually takes little time to go through my blog and find the posts on this topic yourself. But let me explain, so people can stop asking me about this 🙄.

I mentioned a lack of reading skills for a reason, because I did not say he was more upset, I said he was upset when Jin left too. This is the first post I made about it.

What happened after is that a Jkkr took my post and sent it to some blog (might be the one that's takling about it now.. no clue actually) and started to craft my words into something they were not. Another anon got a bit upset and sent me this:

They later came back and explained that they saw that Jkkr make fun of my ask on another blog and got annoyed by that. I accidentally deleted that ask 🙈, but this was my response to it:

Inbetween those I also answered this ask from another anon:

Me talking about Jk's bond and emotions with the other members does not take away from the bond I think he has with Tae. To me that only shows how much stronger Tae and Jk's bond is. I'm not going to downplay Jk's bond with Jin, Jimin, Hobi, Namjoon and Yoongi.. I mean, that's what makes Jkkrs look stupid to me. All of BTS are close, Jk and Tae's bond is just something that exceeds that imo.

The blogger talking about me right now is an ex tkkr. Instead of moving on, they find they need to make fun of both Tkkrs, Jkkrs, and Tae and Jk. They used one post of mine (and a Jkkrs thoughts on that) to make me (and by extention other tkkrs) look untrustworthy without taking into account the other posts I made on the topic (reading skills and a lack of investigation). Apparently I am also too ot7.

Look, people find me an odd kind of shipper. Apparently to some I don't play by the rules of shipping😂. I just talk about the things I see, If people find me odd because of that, so be it.

In season 2 when Syril is working for Dedra as her little guard dog field agent, when he’s learning everything he knows from her, when they both become the most frighteningly efficient officers in the ISB. Then you will realise.

🖤 barber!mickey & (not so) shaggy!ian 🖤

here's the 44th installment for this week's @galladrabbles prompt: i lose, to watch you win by @energievie

catch up/read in full HERE -- updates weekly! [ read scenes one & two in their entirety ON AO3 ]

- - - - -

Ian leans in again, pressing his lips to Mickey’s in a peck that lingers too long on the pull back.

Suddenly, a woman pushing a stroller passes on their right, her tiny tot giggling at a volume that pulls both of their attention; their limbs a flurry as they step back—the Southside having shaped them both.

This is part where Mickey’d clam up, take space, push away, but those demons are suspiciously silent, replaced with foolish notions of love and grandeur. Like he’d lose, just to watch Ian win.

He blushes, straightening his spine. “Alright, alright, I’m fucking starving.”

Relaxing from writing (homework) by writing (fanfic) 🥲

On the bright side, it looks like I'll be on track to have a new Tom and Jerry fic by their anniversary!

It'll be platonic and not an alternative universe. It will be fragmented, but not as much as last year's Arguments to Zeal. The best I can describe it is one story is split up by several, complete, short stories. I'm trying to throw back to some of my older writing style too, as I feel I leaned too far into plot and not enough into emotion as of late. As one last teaser, a part of this story will have the plot from one of the fanfics I never moved from Wattpad to AO3.

The sun began to peak through the window as the cloud cover dispersed...

Avin finished off one of the apples from the basket that had been given to them by Hope. It was a really kind gift, and despite the traumatic topic of discussion, the food was doing wonders to settle their nerves. Still, they could tell the same could not be said for Kaji. Avin could somewhat understand. The topic had always been more sensitive for Kaji. Avin wished they knew what to say or do to help but at the moment, they were still trying to process it themself and hardly felt equipped to help Kaji with it, beyond being there to support him through it just as he was for them.

"I think I'm going to head back to the guild," Avin said after a moment, "check in with the others and see if they need help with dinner or sentry duty. Is that okay?"

Kaji looked up from his apple and thought it over for a moment before nodding. "Yes, don't let me keep you. I think I'm going to order another drink to finish these apples with," he said with a smile.

Avin smiled and hopped down from their seat. "I'll see you back at the guild then when you get done!" they replied with a quick wave before trotting out of The Gigaton Brew.

A warm sea breeze ruffled their leafy hedge as they made their way through the town. As it was the middle of the day, the townsfolk were bustling about in a hurry. Avin waved as they passed by the bank, a flustered young Sandshrew barely able to return it in between counting out the coins for one of his customers. The Sandshrew flinched a bit as a voice boomed from down on the beach, the local Shellos ferryman making a last call before the boat headed out on the hour. Avin barely stepped out of the way in time as a pair of Tandemaus rushed past them, heading towards the local dojo where a Munchlax and Wormadam were currently conducting their latest lesson.

Avin trotted their way through the town square and approached a tall tent with a Beldum on the top. On the ground in front of it was a small bell with a sign that said “ring for service”. Avin lightly smacked their paw against the bell and sat back on their haunches as they waited. There was a bit of a ruckus inside the tent. The shopkeeper's grumbling was very audible amidst the rustling and shuffling of various items as they made their way to the front of their tent. After a moment, a Beldum poked their head out and surveyed the area before glancing down at Avin. They narrowed their eye at the Shaymin before letting out a low hum. "Can I... help you?" they asked in an uninterested tone.

"Are you Nox?" Avin asked in return.

“Yes, that is me. Who is asking?” Nox paused for a moment before quickly interjecting again to answer their own question. “Ah wait yes, you’re the Shaymin that Prisca was telling me about. Yes yes, come in.” Nox beckoned Avin inside before disappearing into the tent.

Avin tentatively followed, cautiously sticking their head inside before fully committing. The place looked a lot bigger on the inside than it did on the outside. There were piles of books, boxes, and baskets all over the places, containing everything from books on lost legends to jars of Cyndaquil hair. It was slightly unnerving, since Avin couldn’t think of a good reason as to why Nox, or anyone really, would have a bowl of Persian claws, but it wasn’t their business. Instead, they focused on what they came here for and followed Nox through the veritable maze within the tent to a section where many maps lay.

“I searched my stock after I spoke with Prisca yesterday,” Nox said, “and unfortunately I do not have any of the Gracidea Flowers that you seek.” The Beldum searched through the shelves before telekinetically lifting up a curled piece of parchment. “However, I did manage to locate this.” Nox floated the map over to Avin and opened it in front of them. “This is a map to an area in between Sky Peak and Cosmos Town. It is said to reside deep within a dungeon known as the Lost Forest.” Nox turned the map back to themself, scanning it quickly as if to affirm the information they were about to give Avin before giving them false hope. “According to this map, at the end of the dungeon, there is a field of Gracidea Flowers. You might be able to find one there.”

Avin sat in silence for a moment, almost in shock. There was another flower field outside of Sky Peak? They had always heard that Gracidea would only grow on the mountain due to the soil composition being so unique. But perhaps this dungeon was close enough to Sky Peak that it had a similar enough composition to support Gracidea Flowers as well. It was nothing short of a miracle to say the least.

“That sounds wonderful!” Avin said as they reached out to take the map. “So how do-”

“However!” Nox interrupted as they rolled the map closed, “This dungeon is no walk in the park, young one.” Nox narrowed their eye at Avin and seemed to almost frown, despite their lack of a mouth. “You are not a trained explorer and though your history as a tour guide on Sky Peak does give you some dungeon crawling experience, you need to be prepared before you walk into this place. I will not have your blood on my hands.”

Nox hovered the map over to Avin, holding it just out of reach as they continued their stern lecture. "Do not get your hopes up. You would be foolish to think a dungeon so close to Cosmos Town wouldn’t have been thoroughly explored already. Ask anyone at that guild you're staying at. They'll confirmed there's nothing there but a bunch of rocks with moss at the end of the dungeon.

“With that said, I have requested that Prisca pack you some supplies for the journey. In it, along with your normal items such as food and water, is an Escape Orb. Should you fail to find the flower field, since you don’t have an exploration badge, you will need to use that to escape instead. Understand?” Avin nodded their head silently. “Good.” Nox offered Avin something akin to a smile. “Then I wish you the best of luck, young Shaymin.”

Avin thanked Nox for their assistance before exiting the tent. Heading back to the main part of town, they spotted Prisca assisting a customer at her storefront. The hybrid began to wave as soon as she spotted Avin. “Hey! Avin! Come here for a second!” Avin quickly trotted over as Prisca fished something out from one of the cabinets in her store. After a moment, she approached the front again and plopped a small bag onto the counter. “It was hard to find a bag that would suit your size so I had to make some alterations but with some Psychic Gem powder, it should be able to hold about twenty items without adding any extra weight. Right now it has a bottle of water, some apples, a couple oran berries, an escape orb, and two heal seeds. Should be enough to get you started.”

Avin stared at Prisca for a moment before asking, “That’s a lot of supplies. A-Are you sure?”

“Of course!” Prisca answered without hesitation. “Sure Nox asked me to do it but I was planning to give you some supplies anyway. It’s dangerous to go into dungeons unprepared and I had a feeling that you were going to be heading into them sooner or later. I can tell we’re a bit of kindred spirits. The adventurer in you isn’t going to stop until you find those flowers.”

Avin sat in shocked silence for a moment before starting to tear up. “Thank you,” they said in a wavering voice, “I… I really appreciate all you and Nox are doing for me.”

Prisca gave Avin a big smile and patted the Shaymin on their head. “Just make us proud, alright? Go get that Gracidea flower for Kaji.”

“Yes ma’am!” Avin quickly scampered off to the crossroads by the guild and began to follow Nox’s map towards the Lost Forest.

[Kaji is temporarily not available for asks. Avin has begun their journey towards the entrance of Lost Forest.]
