When you’re an asexual lesbian and you have to hear a certain something from the room over and you wanna puke but you have to be still in the hallway and not complain bc you’ll be heard and if you’re heard it’s gonna be really awkward AND ALL YOU DID WAS WAKE UP EARLIER THAN USUAL TO GET A GOOD START OF THE DAY
I can’t leave the hallway bc the floors are creaky plus me carrying my laptop, phone, headphones, and my school bag and the walls are thin so if I move I will be heard and maybe interrogated. I just wanted breakfast…I wasn’t prepared for this.
5 AM. THEY KNOW I GET UP AT 5 AM. AND EVEN THOUGH THEY KNEW THEY STILL
I’m disgusted and frankly, not okay.
Am I projecting?? I’m sorry if so
Actually if I think about that one breakdancing cat thing dancing to low quality funky town, it’s not that bad actually
NEVERMINF I WANNA KMS
I’m gonna cry, I don’t wanna exist rn, can I disappear?? PLS???
OH IM FINALLY SAVED ITS BEEN LIKE 20 MINUTES MY LEGS ARE SO TIRED
I’m going to slowly back away and into my room, I’ll just wait till later to go downstairs.
I hear them talking, mfs acting like nothing happened. What. What is life. I want death, forget breakfast, I’ve lost everything, including my will to live
Im also sorry for not posting, my laptop did the little delete thingy again and I lost a whole bunch of motivation for a while, I’ll get back in the groove soon but that was super discouraging (Dude I’m so pathetic)
#I’m not okay.#HOW THEM MFS GONNA ACT LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED#I’m about to cry#that was genuinely the worst#on a Tuesday no less#like who tf does actual stuff on Tuesday#I thought it was just an excuse to have tacos or something#but like#I’m just gonna kms#HOW DO I FACE THEM#I don’t think I can#anyway thanks for listening to me rant#I just needed to write this down#I think I just went through the stages of grief in less than an hour#that’s great#anyway bye bye

"I would never let anything happen to you"
-Matt sturniolo X reader
-Summary: Matt decided to show his girlfriend that he was dating almost for 7 months , but his fans didn't accept her.
-Warings: rude comments, comforting, pet names (like sweetheart, my love , etc)
Y/n | Matt
It was a Tuesday evening, where you and your boyfriend Matt was laying down on the couch, with his right hand around her waist and her left hand on chest. Matt had this great idea to go live and to show his girlfriend to all his fans.
Y/n has always had trouble being infront of a camera or just being film by someone that she didn't have permission to. But because of her boyfriend and his pleasing she said yes to his question, he was very happy to hear her say yes to his question he set up his phone and started going live. He first made sure if y/n was okay and if she was comfortable with her decision, after she gave him a thumbs up to let him know that she was okay with it he smiled and he started his live.
-Y/N' s POV
I never knew I would be even doing this, it pretty scares me if I'll get hate or not . I've always been declining to all the times that Nick,Chris and Matt asked me to film with them or even a tiktok. I always wanted to be on camera but after what happened to Madi and seeing all the hate comments she got , it just scares me a lot.
And I hope I really don't regret this decision.
End of Y/N' s POV
Matt said to the chat "hey guys , so today I have a surprise guest and no is not Chris or nick of course, is actually my girlfriend y/n!" Matt said with a big smile on his face . "Hey guys I'm y/n , I'm Matt girlfriend and is nice meeting you all" she says with a nice smile but her anxiety was kicking in strong.
After some talking with the chat and after ending the chat, y/n think to herself it wasn't that bad even though I did saw some hate comments about 2-5 but it didn't really affected me that much.
It was already night time, so you went to sleep with Matt ,hugging him tightly and saying gn.
It was the next day , you check on Matt who was still asleep while putting both of his arms around your arm. You smiled at him and grab your phone which was right beside you, you went on tiktok because you were, the second you open tiktok you saw an edit of yourself with the caption *How tf is she so gorgeous* , you smiled and reposted the edit to show some love to let them know that you loved the edit.
You went to the comments to see what people were saying while being very curious , as you went to the comments you saw sweet comments like "IKR she's so pretty", "I wish I was like her", "She's lit perfect" you were smiling and blush until you scroll down more and found thousands of hate comments of yourself you started reading them, but after time you just put your phone away to just ignore the haters and focus on yourself.
It has been almost a week that you did the live with Matt but each day, each hour you got fill with death threats, hate comments and etc. And all those stuff have been really putting you in a tough spot, Matt try to ask you and talk to you if you were okay or not but as always you said "I'm fine". The only reason you didn't want to tell Matt is because you didn't want him to feel bad for just putting you on his live, because he really did nothing is only the fans that was making you struggle. Although you didn't want to tell Matt about your issues and about all the his fans and stuff, you had to, one day.
Matt's POV
Y/n has been really strange lately, like being distant to me, not talking to me that much but I may know why or why she's not talking to me or not paying attention to me that much. I've been on tiktok and on YouTube, and lately after I did the live hate comments have spread all around the comment section, and is all of y/n.
I really do feel bad for her, but I feel like if I talk to her she won't care or just says she's fine like she always does. But I'm going to, today. And hopefully she tells the truth
END OF MATT's POV
Matt knocked on their shared room, as he knows that y/n was there "y/n can I come in?" he said but there was silence so he came into the room and saw his girlfriend y/n crying, I immediately ran to her and hug her tightly and asked "y/n, baby sweetheart you okay ml? " "I-i-im s-orry M-matt " she said while giving him her phone and showing the death threat she got , Matt looked at her who looks like who was struggling so hard to talk even to breathe.
"Y/n I'm so sorry for putting you into this mess, you never ever deserve any of this . I really feel truly bad for you and I just wished I was by your side since the start but I thought it be worst if I talked to you about this , I never thought it be this bad, I feel so bad for you . *I would never let anything happen to you* I love you so much y/n and I'm so sorry" Matt said while hugging her and her head being on his shoulder. He waited for her a bit to cool down so she can talk as well, after some sometime she said "M-matt it wasn't your fault at all it was mine for not telling you and just keeping it all to myself. And also Matt I love you too your amazing and I love you so much baby " y/n said with a cheeky smile, they both hug each other tightly and lay down on the bed, and decided to watch some TV.
"I love you so much Matt and thank you for always being there for me" you said while looking at him "awh ,y/n I love you too and of course! Is my job"
Is been weeks until this happened, you may still get hate comments but you let that all aside and focus on yourself and your relationship.and if there's time that you feel bad about all the hate comments you go and tell Matt and Always he comfort you.
------------------
It was really fun writing this hope y'all enjoy it! 😘

hii!! could u please do headcannons for katsuki in a relationship with a trans man reader?? Tysm!!
Of course lovely! And thank you so much for sending in a request! Please feel free to correct any mistakes that I make, but I'll try my best! I wasn't exactly sure how to make the hc's specifically relationship orientated, so it's sort of a thin line sorry! c/w; afab, lgbtqia+, course language, menstruation, no quirks mentioned
He honestly had no clue you were trans when the two of you met for the first time. He had no reason to. And tbh, he didn't give a fuck when you told him. He sort of just.. shrugged and moved on? Nothing more, nothing less. But if you weren't already out when you met him and you realised how you truly felt a bit into the friendship.. he still didn't give a fuck! He accepted you, obviously, and he 'encouraged' you, in his own way, to test things out.
"Okay? Fuck does that have to do with me?"
He especially liked helping you pick out clothes. When asked to go with you to go clothes shopping, he would complain and tell you to get someone else to go with you.. but he would still grab his keys and rush you out the door (: (That's why your style is majorly inspired by his.)
When you told him what your new name was, he immediately said that it was better than your other "shitty ass" name. He also changed your contact name as soon as he could.
When you got your first masc hair cut you didn't tell him beforehand, so when you bumped into him and surprised him with it he stared at it for a good minute with a frown before saying that it looked better than the "rats nest" you had before. Bonus points if you did any form of bleaching and/or dyeing it, he says it makes you look less boring.
"At least now you look like you actually have a personality."
If he catches someone calling/referring to you by your deadname, whether it was intentional or not, he's onto their ass IMMEDIATLEY and he is NOT polite about it. He will sass them tf up.
"Who's that? Oh, you mean ****, right?" "Come again?" / "Excuse you?" / "Pardon?"
Kinda had no idea what binders were before you told him what they were used for. Insisted you got ones with cool designs and called you boring for getting solid colour ones only.
Genuinely became so much more involved with the LGBTQIA+ community because of you. His first Mardi Gras was a night he will literally never forget, for both good and bad reasons. If you dare MENTION a feather boa, he'll start having flashbacks.
He doesn't put that much thought into his sexuality. He's just the type of person to not gaf, yk? Call him what you want, he wasn't gonna sit there and confirm or deny. He just knew that he had been attracted to girls and guys his whole life, regardless of the extra stuff.
When you got your period for the first time around him he was pretty neutral about it. When you mentioned the dysphoria it gave you he did try his best to console you, but it just ended up making you laugh. He really did try to keep you distracted, even if he struggled exponentially. He let you use his Netflix to watch a movie/TV show while you hung out. ACTUALLY understood that cramps hurt like a bitch and gave you pain relief and snacks.
"Jeans cannot be comfortable for you right now, ya masochist."
Went with you to every T-shot appointment. He wasn't obvious about it but he always made sure that his hand was there for you to hold if you got paranoid about the needle hurting. Noticed the effects quicker than everyone else and claimed that he "won" at being the most supportive.
"You guys suck at this."
He helped you save up for top & bottom surgery and surprised you with the rest of the money you needed on a random Tuesday night. He'd never admit it but he "almost" teared up at the sight of how happy you were that night. And you'll pretend like you never saw the tear roll down his cheek.

Eris' Tax Shelter
This one is both timely and a PSA for anyone wanting to make use of their Legendary Shards prior to the launch of TFS. So I give this to you here. Direct link to Ao3 if you prefer to read it there: https://archiveofourown.org/works/56339362
ACCESS: RESTRICTED DECRYPTION KEY:0GLVP1A437$IKO-006 REP#: 303-DERELICT-AUDIO AGENT(S): AUN-326 SUBJ: VIP#1316 AND ERI-223 INTERACTIONS - POTENTIAL BRIBERY, ILLEGAL LOBBYING & MANIPULATION OF TAX LAWS
[BEGIN TRANSCRIPT]
"Finally, someone I actually want to check up on me!"
"I am observing some very strange Guardian behaviour on Luna and believe it may fall under your area of expertise, Rat."
"My area of expertise? How so?"
"It seems financially motivated and of questionable legality."
"Ha! This doesn't sound like a conversation we should be having on Vanguard comms. Why don't you come over for lunch?"
"Hmmm... you are probably correct. Will you make... the sticky rice?"
"Sticky rice needs to soak for several hours before I cook it. How about sandwiches for today and you come over for sticky rice lunch tomorrow."
"I enjoy your sandwiches. Unfortunately, I will be on Mars tomorrow."
"I'll bring it to ya. You coming over now or what?"
"I will be there soon."
.
"So, do tell me what Guardian behaviour requires my... what'd you call it? Expertise?"
"They are lined up at my Lectern of Enchantment to purchase Phantasmal Fragments at a rate and volume that is... extreme. I cannot imagine why."
"Oh! I do know all about that, actually."
"You do?"
"So, city administration just passed a law. Tax law. Goes into effect Tuesday. War effort stuff."
"I knew they were doing... something... I had not paid attention to what."
"Course not. Doesn't affect ya on the Moon, but that is, in fact, why it is currently affecting ya on the Moon."
"How does city tax law have any impact on the Moon?"
"It's the fact that it don't that's the impact. You, oh beautiful, three-eyed, former god of vengeance, happen to live in a zone which has never been part of city or Vanguard taxation."
"I am well aware. At one point the Cryptarchy attempted to claim some sort of jurisdiction over Sanctuary on Luna. Thankfully Ikora was able to put a stop to... whatever that bureaucratic ridiculousness was."
"Good thing too. You know those bits of legendary weapons everyone gets from disassembling shit they find lying around?"
"The shards, yes. That's what they are using at the lectern. They are not generating fragments with glimmer."
"Right. Come Tuesday, all legendary shards become property of the city to help with the war. They need the components to help fight off the pyramid forces on the ground, shore up the ADU's, build weapons for civilians, generally help keep shit movin' an' functional."
"This makes sense, although would that not render the shards financially useless?"
"Exactly."
"I can understand why they would spend them now then, but why on the Moon?"
"In addition to bein' outside any city taxation zones, and therefore, not technically by the letter of the law evadin' anything, your Phantasmal Fragments take up very little space, Moondust. And several places will still exchange 'em for glimmer, in particular the Cryptarchy and our friend who likes us ever so much, Rahool."
"Rahool is terrified of me and he loathes you."
"He and I have a uh... complicated relationship. But yeah. Because the Moon is where it is, legally-speakin' there ain't any laws being broken. And your fragments are super portable."
"I would assume so. They are ethereal whisps of nightmares manifested from the Ascendent plane. Their corporeal instantiation is minimal. They are barely quantified concretions from the energies of phantoms which only manifest fully under specific circumstances."
"Pieces of ghosts. Not like... Guardian ghost-ghosts, but actual ghost-ghosts."
"That is one way of putting it."
"And ghosts don't take up much room."
"I do not follow."
"They use your table to turn the shards into Phantasmal Fragments and then they can keep the fragments and sell them for glimmer later, rendering the soon-to-be-useless shards, useful, long after they cease to be able to be used."
"Hmmm..."
"People've been calling it 'Eris' tax shelter' on Vannet."
"The Lectern of Enchantment is something I built and utilized to harness the vile magic of the Hive in order to transform the negative energies on the Moon into components which can be used to fight the forces of the Witness. It is not a tax shelter! I must inform Ikora."
"You can do that, sure. But they are still using it as intended. It's just that its current intended use for this specific purpose happens to currently be... profitable."
"Are you using it?"
"Me? Nah. Do I currently have several high-density containment units filled with your Phantasmal Fragments? Yeah. But I've had that for a while. I got components for everything. You've seen what's on my ship. I ain't currently buying any from ya right now, nor am I gettin' anyone to buy 'em for me as a favour, if that's what you're wonderin'. I do enough things of... questionable legality already. Tax evasion is such an easily proveable activity. And since I am not a Guardian, when I'm not on the Moon hangin' out with you, I am, technically, under the jurisdiction of the city and subject to its tax laws as a resident thereof. I run a business outta the tower after all. I got several shipping crates of legendary shards just waitin' to be turned over to city authorities. And all the paperwork for it prepared too. Ol' Drifter's gonna be on record for being among the biggest donors of legendary shards to assist with the Last City's war preparations. Can't do that if I convert 'em."
"Hmmm... You are not an altruist, Rat. Why aren't you using this... tax shelter?"
"I am an altruist on paper, Moondust. That's where it counts."
"Why?"
"Different aspect of city tax law. Thing called tax credits. You donate in certain approved ways, you get a credit to count against taxes you'd otherwise have to pay. Gambit's been making quite a lot of glimmer for me. The more tax credits I get, the less tax I pay. If this goes the way it's movin' now, city's gonna end up owing ol' Drifter quite a lot of cash. They won't be able to pay, of course, so they'll need to work it out with me some other way."
"The entire city is going to owe you favours?"
"Hypothetically, yeah. That's one of the reasons why I may have... hypothetically... suggested it to the council in the first place, yeah."
"Wait... You're on the city council?"
"Not officially. I'm a... what you'd call an unofficial adviser. Very unofficial. In theory, purely in theory, mind you, some of the higher ranking members of city council might, hypothetically, owe me some favours and every once in a while I might ask 'em to vote a certain way or put forth a specific idea. Hypothetically, of course."
"You're manipulating the socio-political structure of the Last City to your own ends."
"If I were, not sayin' I am, mind you, but if I were, I would not be doin' it in a harmful way, nor in any way that could be considered illegal on paper."
"How many city politicians do you own? Hypothetically."
"In theory, enough to swing a vote in my favour if I need one. Definitely enough to offer clemency or a pardon, if yours truly was ever caught doing something that might need to be pardoned. Not that I am in the habit of gettin' caught, mind you, but it's always nice to have a backup plan, just in case."
"So the reason all these Guardians are buying Phantasmal Fragments on the Moon right now is because they are about to become useless due to tax law you helped to put in place?"
"Hypothetically."
"And you did this because you needed to lose money on paper so that you can pay less taxes on your Gambit earnings?"
"Now, don't go spreading that theory around. Lotta people are pretty pissed about the whole devaluing of shards thing, especially Spider. Mithrax won't let him use your tax shelter."
"It isn't my tax shelter!"
"House of Light is hoping to be the number one group donating legendary shards to the war effort. Should give 'em very, very good optics in a very direct and undeniable way. Help 'em out quite a bit, politically, and will definitely soften quite a few people's hearts toward them as a whole. It's exceptionally good PR. Not the best for Spider's finances though. Although, what with all that money that up and disappeared for rebuilding the Eliksni quarter, it is kinda poetic that Spider's about to take a hit in the finance department. Strange, that. Couldn't see that coming. Spider sure is pissed over it. Can't imagine why."
"This has nothing to do with your taxes. You are helping the House of Light."
"Oh, it has everything to do with taxes, and anything pertaining to mine is pure conjecture, but if it does end up also helping the House of Light, why that's just another happy accident. And something it does help, undeniably and un-hypothetically, is the city. It's good for them. They need this."
"Fascinating."
"So... that's why everyone's lined up on Luna buyin' your fragments, Moondust. Eris' tax shelter is the talk of the town right now."
"I see."
"And you could pull in the Vanguard, tell Ikora about it, have her and Zavala put a stop to it, but you know how the Vanguard is with policies and procedures. By the time the bureaucrats and administrators actually manage to agree on something it'll be long past Tuesday. And, to be honest, preparing to go into the Traveler's probably a much higher priority for everyone right now. So what if some guardians end up making a bit of cash? Who does that hurt?"
"Aren't the shards they are spending something that could be used to improve the city's defenses?"
"I don't think you're aware of the scale involved in this one, Moondust. Guardian's don't have a lot of spare room in what they carry around. That's the whole reason why anyone has those legendary shards in the first place. Ya get 'em from disassembling guns and armour. They do that because they got no where else to put 'em. Whereas someone like yours truly or the House of Light, we've been able to stockpile some significant amounts. City's gonna be doing just fine for shards. Trust. What's goin' on over on Luna is just a drop in the ocean compared to what's about to be infused into the city infrastructure. It ain't hurtin' no one, except maybe Spider's pocket book, and he's been lining that with other people's glimmer for a while. 'Bout time he was required to be more... generous for a change."
"As usual, our conversations regarding your areas of influence never cease to be simultaneously both impressive and concerning."
"Any day I can manage to impress you is a good day in my books, Three-Eyes."
"Tsch."

Speed Run part IV: The Saga Continues
It’s Barbenheimer weekend and, for the first time in a long time, i got tickets to a movie on opening weekend! Two actually. I am going full Barbenheimer double feature and cannot wait to talk about these films. Oppenheimer is ramping up to be Nolan’s best and Barbie is tracking to be wildly controversial because “muh Feminism!” I cannot wait to dig into that because, holy sh*t, bro, why are so many dudes afraid of vaginas? How is pastel feminine energy, such a goddamn threat to your masculinity? Are you such a weak man that a f*cking film, made to empower woman, can illicit suck rancorous vitriol Bu that’s for later. Now, we play catch-up. I was able to check out Rise of the Beasts last week and Flash this past Tuesday. Let’s get into it!
Transformers: Rise of the Beasts
I was kind of surprised by this. I didn’t expect to really give a sh*t about it because, and let’s be honest, there’s probably two good TF live action films and only one of those to is in the Bayformers era. The first one. I got Bumblebee clocked as the best and then the first Bayformers entry at number 2. Well, i am glad to say that Bayformers 1 is now the third best of this clusterf*ck franchise because Rise of the Beast is easily superior to literally every movie released to date, save Bumblebee. Rise was fun. It had way more of a plot than anything Bay created but nowhere near as dynamic. Say what you will about Michael Bay, that dude understood how to capture scale in those films. More than that, i genuinely enjoyed Pete Davidson as Mirage in this. I actually kind of hate Pete as an actor and “comedian” so for me to arguably enjoy his performance is saying a lot. I, for sure, will never watch his thing again and have no plans to buy it outright but i don’t regret the time i spent with it. It’s dumb fun with a robot monkey and semi that can transform into a robot bigot.
The Flash
This one was okay. problematic issues with Ezra aside, The Flash is one of the best DCEU films to date. It failed miserably at the box office, either rightfully (Ezra is a woman-hating psychopath who kidnapped a minor and tried to start a cult on his compound full of gins) or not (the CG was bad on purpose during the time bubble sees because that’s how Barry saw the distorted worlds). Personally, I'm of the opinion it got what it deserved because of the Ezra stuff but, as a film, it’s solid. Ezra does a really good job in the lead role, Sasha Calle’s Supergirl is awesome but literally gets ‘fridged as the fulcrum of the conflict, and it’s always a pleasure to see Michael Keaton in anything. And, miraculously, this made me want to see more of Batfleck. That’s the tragedy of this film; Devoid of Zack Snyder’s edgy influence, the DCEU could have been good. All of which which lack that distinct Snyder touch, are superior to the one’s in which he was The Guy. Wonder Woman, The Suicide Squad, Aquaman, and the first Shazam were fantastic capeflicks which felt like Phase One Marvel, like DC had figured out the formula. But then the rest of them are dog sh*t. Just, nonsense. The Flash is more the former than the later but that doesn’t matter because Ezra Miller is a violent psychopath.

Life Lately
1/29/2023
✨ life has been very up and down lately. Long story short, my current therapist who I love so much, said her supervisor will only allow her to continue working with me if I get higher care help with food stuff. So I did and have a dietician and an Ed therapist which I’ve been doing for a month now, but I literally can not afford it. I’m spending almost $600 a week (and making $800 a week) and so I can’t save any money, can’t pay off my credit card, can’t buy groceries consistently… it’s just added more stress not really resolved anything. Plus the two new therapist I am seeing I don’t really like very much, they’re not telling me ANYTHING I don’t already know… it’s that I’m not ready to fully recover. And I hate that if I’m not, the way the system is set up is to have the therapists you do have have to stop working with you to encourage “higher care” but if I can’t afford basic specialized care… how tf is higher care an option??! Ugh. It’s a mess.
I have my therapy with my long term therapist I love on Tuesday, and I’m going to talk to her about it all. I’m really REALLY hoping we can find a way for me to do my best alone and then still work together (she’s not licensed yet, she’s an associate hence having to follow her supervisors authority to a T). But I will be crushed if I can’t see her, but I genuinely can’t afford more than 1 therapist a week and i don’t want to see either other therapist over her.
✨ anyway, that’s the shitty stuff. But other things in life are pretty positive atm! Work is going well, and I am liking it as much as one can like a level entry, out of college in a field they don’t particularly want to be in, as much as could be expected lmao
But I did speak to my manager and put in some boundaries with my available work hours (I was pulling 10-12 hour days bc of my commute) and so I now leave the office at 4 instead of 5:30 three days a week cutting almost 3 hours off my work day on M, W, and F’s which has been SO needed!! Proud of myself for asserting those boundaries tbh!
✨ I went running last weekend for the first time in almost 3 months, and it actually went great! Definitely slower and that is hard to come to terms with, but I went out again this morning for another 30 minute run and I am trying to just remain grateful running is back in my life!! And I am going to try running 3 days a week for 30 minute sessions for a few weeks to see how it goes, then increase it slowly if it goes smooth!! 🤞🤞
✨ some yummy foods lately I’m obsessed with; it looks gross but is SO tasty… mashed banana with maple syrup, pb, and cinnamon on top of freshly made bread!! And then I had steel cut oats for the first time yesterday and omg game changer!!!
✨ thea is her usual, perfect, adorable, derpy self (ignore my mass pile of stuffed animals)
✨ my brother is hopefully getting a job he’s been interviewing for for a month in the next week or so, and if he does we will be looking to move out in the next month or so!! (Hence needing to be able save money/have an income…) bc I need to not live at home anymore.
✨ speaking of saving though… I did have the plan to buy myself a ps5 when I officially landed my first big girl post college job, and they just got restocked so I bought one!!! So now I reallyyyy can’t afford therapy lmao 😅 I mean I can for $110 a week with my one therapist, not $600 a week for three lol
So that comes on Wednesday so next weekend I know what I’ll be doing all day Saturday and Sunday lmao
I bought the new ratchet and clank game and then also the last of us part 1 (the show is SO good!!) and I’m so excited!!
✨ I went to the humane society last weekend and then again this weekend and it feels SO good to be going back! I hadn’t gone since September of last year due to the new job and just the anxiety and sadness around some of the animals there for so long. But I loved getting to be back! I walked this 4 month old husky named Zeus, and then Oso I TLC’d and did some mental stimulation games and he’s such a sweetie pie ugh I love them all!!!
✨ today has been a nice, somewhat lazy day! Slept in until 8am and then went on a 30 minute run, then stopped at the farmers market for a few things, came home and did a 30 minute intervals and arms peloton class with Robin Arzon :) Then I watched M3gan (lol wild!), and now I’m watching Get Out while drawing in bed with a few candles lit!
✨ not thrilled about the work week ahead, I appreciate having a job a lot but I am definitely only planning on staying at this place for a year or 2 max and then I want to segue back to social sciences bc tech is not for me long term!
✨ I want to watch one more “scary” movie (or like thriller type movie like M3gan or Get Out) tonight so any suggestions I would love! :)
✨ well, I hope you’re all doing well, and have a lovely Sunday to finish up your weekend!!

SBI + Witch-Hybrid Reader
C OR CC: Character
WHO: Sbi
PRONOUNS: They/Them
WARNINGS: Swearing | Character Death [Mentions]
Okay, so I imagine the reader has vitiligo-type skin, like patches of the grey witch skin ya' know?
Like it's grey and makes them look sick in some places
Reader could probably have one dull purple eye
Also, cats would probably be very attracted to them, like reader just come home one day with 50 cats and Phil doesn't even question it anymore because 'For fuck sake [Y/N] it's the fifth time this week and it's only Tuesday'
Also, reader can trade with villagers easier, they get the good stuff for less money (Techno using this to his advantage and getting items for insanely good prices) this armor is seven gold? nevermind one coal will do
Reader being a master at potion-making and enchanting, trying to teach sbi how to enchant, and just
none of them being very good at it
first off, Wilbur's just shit, okay he got bane of arthropods seven different times. Bitch what?
Tommy's next, he's also shit but not as bad as Wil, he only messed up five or six times, but he was like ten when you showed him so, you can't really blame him for being bad
Wilbur though he was like 16/17-ish so he has no excuse
Techno was okay, a lot better than Wil and Tommy, he got the enchanting down very fast, it was bane of arthropods but he got flame on his next try so reader didn't have to help him too much.
Phil was fine, he struggled with the inscribing but overall he did well (he already knew how to enchant but he wanted to support you and your passion)
Also reader with one of the big mumza hats with the veil on it, just, 6-year-old [Y/N] with a massive hat that they stole from their goddess mom, and it's way too big and keeps falling in front of their face
it probably still does, and the veil is so long it drags along the floor like a train, Tommy would probably steal it from you {like a raccoon}
[Y/N] being the cool aunt/uncle/Auncle/(other name for 'sibling-of-my-parent'), to Fundy and Micheal and taking care of them when Wil and Sally/Tubbo and Ranboo were away
or ftm![Y/N] giving Fundy their old binder (or sewing some for him), helping him bind, setting timers, giving him some of their hoodies, and just being there for him when/if he gets dysphoric
Okay so onto the lore,
If Reader joined L'manberg, they would probably be put in a safe, isolated area, not too far from the center but still pretty far
I doubt Wilbur would have told them about the war, so how did Reader find out?
Maybe it was when you intercepted a letter from Dream, a declaration of war, now that surprised you
Or was it when you little brother showed up at your house rambling a mile a minute about Dream, War, L'manberg
Wait did he just say he died?
You sit him down and start cleaning and healing his wounds while he re-starts his story, starting at the creation of L'manberg and ending with his death moments prior
"So Dream-"
"Shot me, yeah"
"And Wilbur-"
"Did nothing to protect me, no"
"... What the fuck"
You might just take a cannon life, you had always been a more peaceful soul, never really enjoyed the fighting Techno did, or at least not in the way Techno did.
You never thought it was very fun that was about to change
If Tommy hadn't stopped you, you might have just destroyed Dream, and every other person there, family or not.
Onto the election, mainly the results
I doubt Schlatt would banish you, especially since your a witch, he would need potions (which are like alcohol I guess)
So you'd probably leave a join Pogtopia, there would probably be a massive fight between you and the cabinet just so you could leave
They'd probably put you on house arrest, despite not fighting very often you were strong and your potions made it harder to get to you
So you were a pretty well rounded fighter
And they were definitely wary because of you relation to Techno
You breaking out and immediately going to Pogtopia
Wilbur being so relieved that his little sibling is okay
He puts you straight to work, helping ready the weapons
Forgetting that your now a wanted person
Okay, onto Wilbur's death
That fucked you up
Your dad just stabbed your brother and it hurt
Sure the explosion was a little far but killing him?!
Why
You really didn't know and didn't want to stay and find out
So you left, you ran far away into the deepest caves cuz who tf would find you here?
Ranboo
Ranboo found you
Somehow, this bitch is like 8 feet tall how did he fit in the cave
Anyway, he told Tubbo and Tubbo brought the (newly made) Butcher Army to your house, and since you were a criminal
You were supposed to be executed
You escaped before reaching L'manberg and ran to Techno's house
He had told you about Phil through an earlier conversation, he tried to help you
But you lead the army to his house, you also met Ghostbur for the first time
"Is that Wilbur?"
"Ghostbur actually"
"But is he Wilbur? "
"I guess, he's part of brother, like his soul almost"
"Does that mean Wil's with momma now?"
This definitely wasn't what the army expected to hear
"Your siblings?!"
"Yes!" "No"
"Don't deny it big brother, I'm amazing"
Maybe hitting the blood god whole you couldn't run wasn't the best idea you've had
But it certainly wasn't the worst
Ya' know what was the worst?
Breaking off the presidents horn during your escape
Now you were a criminal and a bad person
You and Phil made up and you hung out with Ghostbur
You were happy, Dream was finally put in prison and you didn't have to worry anymore
Your family was back - Broken and no longer the kids you once were - but back
Until Ghostbur dissappears during his visit to Dream
#PH1LZ4#PHILZA#W1L8UR#WILBUR#6H0ST8UR#GHOSTBUR#T3CHN0BL4D3#TECHNOBLADE#FUNDY#fUNDy#R4NB00#T0MMY1NN1T#TUBB0#N1H4CHU#NIHACHU#Baby doll me up#Not me accidentally posting this

SakuAtsuSunaOsa x GN reader Really Specific and Kinda Gross Cleaning HC’s
A/n: Yes, I know I write this ship too much but no one else is going to do it so I have to feed myself 😭 FYI I refer to them as their first name because it just feels more personal to read.
⚠️Mentions of bodily waste, dirty toilets (?), smelly feet and vulgarity Also Suna and Atsumu are the gross ones in the home- sorry not sorry- BELOW THE CUT⚠️
This is literally just about cleaning and hygiene and stuff- Ik it seems ridiculous but most of these are applicable to my house irl and I feel like Sakusa would like them a lot.
Kiyoomi definitely has a set schedule for cleaning; of course if he feels it’s necessary he’ll just clean for fun- but the schedule is still set in stone and there is no pushing it to the side
Atsumu tried to do that once and he nearly had to sleep in the car garage 😭
Basically if you’re a dirty person then YOU nees to change or else you can live somewhere else XD... like you stand no chance with this dude if you’re not super hygenic
Here’s an outline of their cleaning schedule:
Sundays- dust/polish furniture and vacuum/swiffer the floors, change linen
Mondays- deep clean EVERY bathroom in its ENTIRETY
Tuesdays- Dust the living room/take stock of fridge and cupboard; laundry
Wednesday- Power wash the outside of the house; laundry
Thursday-Saturday: Repeat Sunday-Tuesday schedule; laundry
The kitchen’s deep cleaning isn’t on the schedule since it’s handled exclusively by Osamu
Samu doesn’t trust ANYONE to clean it as well as he does- and when you live with Kiyoomi that says A LOT
I feel like Y/n and Kiyoomi are probably the two main enforcers about bathroom cleanliness
Every time you shit?
Wipe that toilet seat AND HANDLE with isolpropyl alcohol!!! Actually dump in some toilet bowl cleaner and scrub it while you’re at it
GOD FORBID you leave a DROP of PISS on the toilet seat
Drives Y/N and Kiyo C R A Z Y
Tbh it’s just Rintaro and Atsumu who do that shit
Osamu hates it too but he won’t burst a blood vessel over it like them- like he’s been living with crusty Atsumu all his life he’s used to it
OH DID I MENTION?! NO PHONES IN THE BATHROOM PERIOD
The very A I R is unsanitary 🤢
Mofo Sakusa legit put up a tiny shelf outside each bathroom for you to place your phone on-
You can try to play it off but at the end of the day this man JUST KNOWS if your phone has even stepped one INCH into the bathroom
He caught Rintaro and Atsumu doing it a few times and made them take their phone case AND ACTUAL PHONE apart and disenfect every single nook and cranny after
Yes, this is A LOT to take in- but what if I told you there was more rules beforehand that Kiyo begrudgingly gave up as a form of compromise?
Originally there was a no eating anywhere but the kitchen/dining room rule BUT then literally EVERYONE wanted to at least be able to eat in the living room
Good LORD it took a hot minute before Sakusa agreed
Atsumu and Rin are the ones who lounge around and eat on the sofas so it’s their job to vaccuum the couch cushions and change the throw blankets/pillows every two days after they eat near on them.
Similarly only certain foods are permitted in the bedroom
This is another rule enforced by Y/n- who is usually the one tasked with doing the laundry
Certain foods are a PAIN to get out of bed sheets and blankets
Cubed fruits and veggies in the bed ONLY- no exceptions
As soon as ANYONE gets home the following needs to be done:
Feet need to be washed WITH soap (because- let’s be real- ALL of their feet STINK WTF)
But like I feel as though Y/n and Osamu have good noses- whereas Kiyo’s sense of smell is dulled because of his idiot child selfs excessive inhaling of cleaning chemicals
Y/n and Osamu on most days:
“ATSUMU RIN WHY TF CAN I SMELL YOUR RANK ASS FEET FROM THE LIVING ROOM??? GO SHOWER NOW!!”
Clothes are to be changed before you sit down; hands and faces are to be washed thoroughly- honestly just take a shower at this point ya’ll
Phones are to be wiped with alcohol or clorox wipes- so that spread of foreign germs is minimalized within the home
I DO NOT have a thing for cleaning okay? I just thought it’d be interesting to write this all out... originally this was supposed to be domestic HC’s but turns out I got carried away and decided to list my own home routine and make the SakuAtsuSunaOsa household suffer through it too-
#haikyuu poly au#miya atsumu x reader#miya osamu x reader#miya twins x reader#sakuatsu x reader#sakusa kiyoomi x reader#suna rintaro x reader#I’m way too comfortable on this app#cleaning#cleaning headcannons#haikyuu crack#serious crack

it’s the start of summer and the bakusquad wanted to go somewhere so they all decided where they were headed too and they wanted to invite me since im always hang with them. Btw we live together so the bakusquad lives with me until everyone finishes school(college)
*goes to your room*
Mina: hey bestie!!
Cj: ah!- oh hi mina what do you need?
Mina: well….me and the bakusquad are going on a road trip and we want you to join and I think bakugo would like it the most
*Nudges you a bit*
Cj: eh? m-maybe …..
I’ve always had a crush on bakugo since we met at UA but i haven’t had the courage to tell him i liked him bc every person who tells him gets rejected and im afraid i’ll get rejected too.
Mina: Then it’s settled! We’re leaving this weekend since it’s Tuesday and everyone will have enough time to get ready!!
Cj: okay
Mina leaves my room and i go deep into thought about bakugo and mumbling things, making me flustered and red.
Cj: *mumbling*bakugo is...hot…
Suddenly i hear a knock at my door so i open it and to my surprise its katsuki
Cj: Kat? Oh, do you need anything???
Katsuki: just wondering if you’re going with us on the trip
Cj: oh..yeah I am! *smiles*
Katsuki: oh okay then goodnight
Cj: Night!
Bakugo POV:
Bakugo goes back to his room and locks his door and lays in his bed and starts thinking about me. Little did i know he liked me too.
Bakugo: Damnit! Why...I want him to be mines and no one else’s..ugh!
He goes into deep thought about how i could be his and forever <3
The next day(Wednesday)
Kirishima: *yawns* babe? You up
Denki: mm...5 more mintues kiri
kirishima:*chuckles* yeah okay * kisses his head*
Kirishima heads to the bathroom and takes a shower and does his hair and comes out and wakes Denki and he does the same thing.
Denki: let’s eat breakfast then wake the others up
Kirishima: yeah okay
Kirishima and Denki have been together since 2nd year at UA so this makes three years of being together, they go downstairs and sees me already up and dressed and eating.
Kirishima & denki: Hey Cj
Cj: oh hey guys *puts his plate in the sink*
Boys: so can you wake bakubro up while we wake the other love birds
Cj: no problem
i laughed at their comment about Mina and sero being together for 2 years, i knock on his door feeling that it’s locked so i yelled a bit.
Cj: hey bakugo time to get up we have planes with the sqau-
Before i could finish my sentence, bakugo opened the door up
Bakugo: I know dumbass...I was putting on my shoes and other things
Cj: oh okay then, Kiri and Denki went to go wake the love birds up
Bakugo: okay ima go eat breakfast now
Cj: okay
Bakugo and the others ate breakfast and they drove in my truck and blasted TikTok music and bakugo vibed with some while the windows are rolled down and everyone smiling and laughing with each other. We all arel going shopping for the road trip this weekend.
Cj: Hey guys ima pull over and get some gas
Others-expect bakugo: okay
Bakugo: I’ll help you with it
Cj: okay…(Odd he never does that)
After pumping the gas we head to the store and the girls go together and same with the guys. After everyone got what they needed me and bakugo went to the bathroom and came out and we drive back home.
The next day(Thursday)
Everyone is asleep while i were the only one up and it was around 12 in the afternoon, so i went and took a shower, did my face routine and did my hair, and put my shoes on.
To my surprise, after i went downstairs i see bakugo on the couch watching tv. So i speak.
Cj: Hey bakugo
You said with a smile
Bakugo: hey...Cj, where are you going?
Cj: oh well I was gonna go on a little walk then was gonna go back to the mall and walk around there-
Without missing a single beat bakugo said.
Bakugo: I’m coming with you and you have no say in this got it?
Cj: I- okay then…(is bakugo okay?? He’s being nice to me and it’s kinda cute and sweet)
Me and bakugo go outside and starts walking around the block then get in the car.
Bakugo: Hand me the keys I’m driving
Cj: okay
I hand him the keys and my phone hooks to the car blasting loudly ^E.T by Katy Perry^ and I turn the volume down,
Cj: I’m sorry heh I forgot to turn down the music from last night
Bakugo: Dumbass that’s loud as hell…
We arrive at the mall and get out and started walking around the mall.
Cj: So….
Bakugo: huh? What dumbass?
Cj: why did you come with me? It’s so..unlike you
Bakugo:(shit...) well you’re always getting lost so I came to make sure that you don’t get lost or do or even buy something stupid
Cj: oh...heh I guess so
Bakugo: So where are we heading to first?
Cj: Um hot topic…. Then spencers then the food court
Bakugo: okay then let’s get going dumbass
You guys go into hot topic and I see this black skirt and red top and gets it and some other clothes, snacks and etc.
Bakugo: That’s all your getting Cj?
Cj: Yes I am bc I wanna go to spencers before the food court
Bakugo: okay then
I pay and leave to go to spencers. Once I made it we went in.
Cj: oo this looks so cute!
I found some more clothes and looked around more while bakugo followed me around.
Bakugo: Oi dumbass what are you looking for?
Cj: nothing just looking around- (is that a sex toy??)
i go up to it and notices what it reminds me of and i back away slowly and go pay for the clothes. Bakugo looking confused until he looked as well and left with you.
Bakugo: we agree to never speak of this?
Cj: agreed.
We head down to the food court and we found the place we wanted to eat at. we ate burger king.
Cj: hey bakugo?
Bakugo: Hm?
Cj: Thanks for coming out with me!
I said with a warm smile.
Bakugo: oh no problem
we leave after eating and head home and we had a squad night.
The next day at night(Friday,9 pm)
I were warming up the car and put my bag in the trunk with the rest of the squad’s stuff. Im driving and bakugo sitting on the passager side while kirishima is on the right side, sero in the further back with mina and Denki on the left side in the backseat. I may be wondering where they’re going well i’ll find out once you guys get there.
Cj: everyone ready? Nobody left anything before we pull off?
Everyone nodded and i asked who wanted to play the music from my phone and mina wanted it. So she played (All about that bass-Megan Trainor). Then i stopped and filled up on gas then started hitting the road.
Cj: So...what should we play
Bakugo: The hell you’re talking about dumbass
Kirishima: OH! Do you mean a car ride game?
Denki: aw man I love those
Mina and Sero:Ikr! They’re always so fun to play epslly when we have a long drive to go!
Cj: Yeah how about I spy with my little eye?
Everyone agreed and even bakugo. i turned down the music so it’s like background music and Denki starts the game.
Denki: I spy something blonde and grumpy
Kiri: Bakubro!
Mina, Sero: Bakugo!
Cj: kats…
Bakugo: damn idiot! Tf why me!?
Denki: Idk you’re the first person I see bro
Bakugo:tch...fine my turn
You start blushing for no reason at all.
Bakugo: I spy something red
Denki: Kirishima’s hair
Kiri: My hair?
Mina: Cj
Sero: Kiri’s hair
Bakugo: No and Raccoon eyes got it
Cj: hah?!
Mina: Yes! I knew it! Girls instinct
Boys: ohhhh…
i blush harder and harder meaning my face turning redder than Kirishima’s hair. The boys continue to laugh but get Bakugo’s point bc their the only ones who know his crush on me.
Cj:(why?...why me?)
Bakugo smiles at me and i turn to the road while letting i window down so i feel something cold against my face.
Bakugo: Your turn pinky
Mina: okay! I spy with my little eye something bright!
Cj: oh the sun
Kiri: denki’s hair
Sero: the sun
Bakugo: (dumb shitty hair) the sun
Denki: My hair
Mina: Cj got it first! So Denki and Kiri you’re wrong
Cj: Oh okay then
We go another few rounds before everyone wanted to listen to music and do their own thing. Three hours passed and it was ^9:08pm^ and everyone had fallen asleep and i see this resting place so you pull over and the only person who wasnt asleep was bakugo to my surprise. So i get out and goes to the bathroom and so does bakugo.
Cj: I’m surprised
Bakugo: what do you mean extra?
Cj: You’d usually fall asleep around 8 pm so it’s kind of weird ya know
Bakugo: oh well you look tired so I wanted to drive some anyway
Cj: oh okay...that’s fine
We sit on the hood of the truck and look up at the stars and we talked more than ever and soon enough i fell asleep so Bakugo puts me in the passager seat and got in the car and shuts it off and fell asleep as well.
The next day(7 am)
i woke up to music and bakugo driving so i sit up and notice his jacket on me and i look at him. Admiring him his eyes, his calmness, his body.
Bakugo: You’re gonna keep staring or say something dumbass
Cj: oh sorry
Bakugo: For what??
Cj: oh I assume it made you uncomfortable
Bakugo: no not really(should I pull over on this cliff? yeah)
Bakugo pulls over and gets out and opens my door and brings me out and closing the door behind me. giving bakugo a confused look.
Bakugo: I wanted you to see the sunrise with me…
Cj: oh well it does look lovely doesn’t it?
Bakugo: yeah it does...hey can I ask you something?
Cj: yeah okay? (I wonder whats he’s gonna ask me)
Bakugo: okay...um do you like anyone?
Cj: um...yeah actually wbu do you like someone?
Bakugo: May I ask who it is and yeah I do dumbass
Cj: oh...well its you
Bakugo:oh...OH! wait really?
Cj:yeah...its okay if you dont like me-
Without a heart beat he kissed me, we both have a slight blush look on our face
Cj:w-what?!
Bakugo: i like you too dumbass
CJ:oh um...what does this means now?
Bakugo lets out a sign and asks
Bakugo:ugh.....cj would you like to be my boyfriend?
I say back with me smiling like crazy, blushing mess
Cj:YES!

Tuesday, june 22 2021
I've noticed I'm getting "the shiverys" or "the twitchy" a lot today. Like every time I FEEL something I take a moment to violently tic.... every time I think about certain things I tic.... good things, bad things, things from an hour ago and things from years ago. Tic, tic, tic.
Also, I have... some stuff to explain. Its really no big deal, but you know me: I'll freak out about it anyway. Basically I dissed my friend (rightfully so) around the time that we had just met cos they did something that threw me off.
He saw it in my phone... NOW. it's not RELEVANT anymore and I've since redacted that criticism...and now I gotta explain it to him anwyays. Oh well. I'm good at this stuff. I can get myself outta any situation. I dont even know why I'm talking like this tho... it's not a "Situation" it's just smthn I gotta explain rq.
Oh, today's song recommendation is Spirit Crusher by Death. I'm a huge Death fan...
Also! I gotta study... for my replacement exam. How stressful. Its about photosynthesis, but like, it's not simple. We went DEEP inside those fucking leaves.
One sec, lemme hook up my IV tube
Not an ACTUAL IV tube... just my headphones. But since I'm so #emo, it might as well be a fucking IV tube with the way that I cant live without it.
Its 3:08 and I'm walking home now. I was upset last night but me and Star have made up now lol... it was thAt easy. I'm so defective, making shit hard when it doesnt need to be.
It's so hot out damn. Idk. I had school today, so I had Bio class... I ACTUALLY PAID ATTENTION for once. I had lunch with Star and her friend group, and I honestly kinda feel like they're MY friends now too, even just a little bit.
Actually, I used to rant about feeling lonely like all the time but now I have so many friends it's crazy they all keep inviting me places and it's like people WANT ME AROUND... idk. It makes me happy.
Today I gotta ask if tommroow after school I can go to Bee's house to watch Supernatural (famous homoerotic ghost show)
I should also add songs to Erin's spotify playlist for our picnic saturday which I still need permission to go to.
I gotta ask for Wednesday after school to watch Insidious with Jay which is apparently really good
Also hes the friend that I gotta explain stuff to... the DrAmA... the ThEaTrE....
Update my dad said yes to hanging out with Bee but first I'm gonna miss school to fix my broken brackets on my braces
Also turns out the house I THOUGHT we were moving into has substantial damage from shifting so... we aRENT moving there.
In case you didn't know, shifting is when like the house that's been built literally SHIFTS like it moves around.
Anwyays Jay just texted me... I'm gonna change into shorts since it's hot, set up my study area,.... and respond to him.
The time is 3:22 p.m.
Wish me. Luck.
Luck is plentiful! As it so often is in my risky, risky life.
I play my cards right. It's a learnt skill.
But also there wasnt much to explain since it passed already and was tiny anywyas.
XD so I've made up with the whole goddamn world by now.
Its 6:31, we saw 1 house. Only one. Its kinda hot out but I'm gonna bike now since we just had supper. I finally finished my homework... I just have to finish one mixed media piece as my final project for art!
Friday is my replacement. On photosynthesis and cell resp. We know this. But what I didn't mention, or I dont THINK I did, is that if I finish my art project before then I have the second block FREE!!! Me, Star, and her friend
A are planning to leave for second block and maybe get mint chocolate chip ice cream!
Also I might eat her out XD
Anyways idk. I hope I can bike tonight to call Jay.
I keep accidentally using people's real names here then having to correct it... I dont know how much i care about MY identity being discovered... but to have my friends doxxed would suck.
Man I feel bad abt saying fuck star last night cos we made up....
Wait we r looking at another house? Idk I'm in the car still waiting to go home
Oh wait no now we r goin home
Its 6:39... I hope I still have time.
I went biking, called Jay. Went home. Idk, friendly conversation... we talked more tonight and I also talked to my other friend A. Jay is... I LOVE HIM?? SO MUCH??? I feel so happy. Talking to him thinking about him seeing his STUPID FUCKING FACE JESUS. his eyes alone... I could stare at his face all day probably. I want to kiss him... hOLD HIS HAND... omg... huG HIM!!! Eofjwpxjwie he's so sweet like I can't even... and I'm proabably not good enough for him like. Wtf. Hes easily a 10. And I dont rate things outta 10. How tf do I end up with HIM? Doing stuff, as friends. Like wHAT. I guess I got lucky XD. He says he loves my personality and I'm hot XD ofc I dont see it myself. But like. JESUS CHRIST he could proabably easily pull whOever. XD me?
Whatever though. As long as we r together and stuff. I LOVE HIM A LOT. he said he loved me. Every time he says that it makes me so overly happy.
Maybe I'm just sappy and stuff.... whatever. I think it would be nice to be hugged by him.
Yeah I'm cheesy.
I'm sorta tired now so maybe I'm not writing the best.
I just keep thinkinf about love. Love is a muscle of evil suggestion. But how evil can it really be? I am just a human being and that is all. Everything else is applied. I am just a human being with soemthing in my heart that pulls me all over the place. Love is this strange thing because I'm fucked up and to be able to love without that fucked up part of me, without the damage... is this complicated, hard thing to do and I can NEVER tell if I'm doing it right but I know I'm DOING IT. I know I FEEL LOVE. And soemtimes it's such an intense thing like when you go to surf on a wave at the beach with ur belly but u hit it wrong and it's so big and overwhelming it washes over you and PULLS you down to the bottom and smushes your face into the sand and YOU CANT BREATHE jesus Christ it's like that.
Or maybe I just want to experience love as it should be felt.
Obviously all of my problems surrounding this Damage could be easily fixed if I went to therapy but. there are reasons I can't.
I LOVE a lot. Too much for my own good. Enough to hurt me, get me into trouble, etc etc but also... enough to liberate me. I LOVE. I love Jay. So much. LIKE. MY BRAIN ORBITS AROUND HIM CONSTANTLY THINKING OF HIM AND PRAISING HIM AND MWUAH HE IS SO LOVELY I BOW BEFORE HIM...
I think as much as I love, a lot of the times I tend to focus even more on BEING loved.
If I am told I am loved, and shOwN I am loved... it is one of the most powerful things. Especially since I was literally emotionally neglected in childhood... yeah. I feel like I'm always trying to fill that hole.
Not EVERY feeling I have is for that reaosn but sometimes, if you tell me you love me, show me you love me, hug me,... I'll like start crying,,, that's the childhood emotional neglect kicking in. If you call me #smol and #cute and say I look young and fragile which happens more often than you'd think XD, I know I'm not supposed to like that shit, so I act like I dont....but I do. Which is PROBABLY ALSO THE CEN 🤪 like whatever lol
Anwyays I'm fucked up
You see how quickly things become complicated in my mind?
Convoluted? Is that the word?
Whatever. I OVERCOMPLICATE THINGS COS I OVERTHINK THEM BECAUSE I'm LITERALLY MENTALLY ILL IN SO MANY DIFFERENT WAYS. I'm not joking. I obviously have unresolved undiagnosed "issues"
I do Suspect things, though.
I can make a list
Maybe I shouldn't.
Maybe I will.
I shouldnt.
Whatever.
I used to hate when people brought up my self harm. I would actually panic. I still self harm but now? Now I'm fine with anyone talking about it as long as it's not an adult who can get me into trouble/force me into therapy over it. Because really? I kinda like having it mentioned. It's kinda validating and it's like hey... people can see that I'm sick.
I dont do it so people talk to me about it though. Dont get me wrong. If I did, I'd go vertically on the arms, not for suicide but so it healed and people would ask XD.
My scars are actually VERY hidden... cos I never intended for ANYONE to see. But for those who DO see them,,,, it's nice soemtimes to have people express concern.
I dont wanna be PITIED or anything, but idk I just think to myself "wow, they're CONCERNED... about ME... they arent angry or mean... they didnt yell at me or threaten me... they respect my autonomy and privacy...
And they CARE ABOUT ME..." and it makes me cry.
That's also the CEN.
I dont know. I just like when people express genuine concern. Even if they see and then just ask if I'm okay. That's all it takes cos then I go wow.
Its validating and irs lovely because finally people care... FINALLY PEOPLE CARE. FINALLY I GET SOME EMPATHY OR SYMPATHY AND NO ANGER.
Even just having them brought up tells me its noticeable enough
My brain does this thing where it thinks nothing bad that's ever happened to me was Bad Enough for me to be upset about.
And I dont know... its nice sometimes to be told shit like "omg that looks so bad" or to see that people who do see my cuts are somewhat shocked or revolted... it's nice because I go... "hey, it was bad enough for them..."
Or to have people comment on them with concern. Just ANYTHINT WHERE PEOPLE NOTICE IT AND ARENT ASSHOLES ABOUT IT IS VALIDATING.
Because I'm not used to that...
Because CEN
I'm. The worst perosn on the fucking planet.
I should kill myself.
I suddenly actually feel so self hating I do want to kill myself... oh god.
I ruin everything. Everything. Everything. Everything. What have I done. Like. Why. Oh god.
I'm just remembering when Star said my kindness seemed like an act. And how I've been called out for seeming fake like 2 other times.
DO I SEEM FAKE???? I DONT EVER PUT ON ACTS OF KINDESS.... CONCIOUSLY? but the very idea that I could be perceived that way...
Should I like not try to be nice or some shit?
Jesus christ she hurts my feelings even now when it was a long time ago.
But I cant blame her. I can't blame anyone for how i feel except my parents because they left me with fucking. Heart nerve damage or some shit.
I'm tired and now I'm sad too. Goodnight guys.

Some stuff
Hey y’all, I wanna chat about some upcoming stuff.
In the past, I’ve tried putting myself on a certain schedule so that I’m more organized and able to be as productive as possible without overworking myself. So much has changed ever since all the nonsense hit the world, both good and bad, but the best thing that’s happened is being able to be in a place by myself.
No distractions, my own space. No more having to work around someone else’s schedule or fearing that what I’m doing is interfering with them. I can finally stream and use my microphone and have fun. I finally have a corner dedicated to writing that’s comfortable. I finally have a place to come back to after work and relax.
I’m finally all moved in, I’m able to go back to work [this time with an actual consistent schedule there too], and I feel much better about my environment.
So, what does that mean?
Well, I’m gonna try out a schedule that I drew up and worked through for this coming week. It’s looking a little like this:
Sunday: Themed Night [usually a ship night] Monday: Streaming TWDG [S1, S2, ANF, TFS, Michonne] Tuesday: Streaming Other Games [Death Road, other Telltale games] Wednesday: Writing Day/Queue Thursday: Writing Day/Queue Friday: Free Space Saturday: Themed Night [usually a character night]
Streaming
The reason I have Monday and Tuesday down as stream days is because I have those days off from work, so I don’t spend all day dealing with customers and then come home tired, y’know? I can get everything I need to get done during the day, then come back and have some fun streaming.
As for streaming, of course I’m going to play through the whole TWDG series, but I’d also like to play some more Death Road with the twdg gang, as well as look at some other telltale games. I mean, I’ve only every played TWDG and Wold Among Us, but there’s others that I’d be willing to check our, y’know?
Like Tales from the Borderlands, Batman, or even the Minecraft Storymode. I love TWDG and I’d like to see what else they did. Plus, maybe even some non-telltale games, like King’s Quest, or Life is Strange. Other story based games.
Also, don’t worry, I’m still gonna be on here chatting away about TWDG. If anything, maybe playing some of these other games can give us some great AU’s or inspire other ideas.
Just look what Death Road did....
Writing
I’ve been slacking. With everything going on, I haven’t had time, energy, or motivation to work on [checkmate] or any other works, which sucks. But being here in this new place? It’s done something. It’s made working -WANTING to work- so much easier.
I’m someone who needs to have time set aside for projects. That time is for that project, y’know?
I’m back to working on [checkmate]. I can’t give a time when the next chapter will be up, but know that I am working on it.
Free Space?
That just means that maybe I’ll take that day as a strick writing day if such inspiration says so, maybe I’ll take that day to answer asks and chat with you guys, or maybe I’ll stream. It’s a free space.
Themed Weekends
They’ll continue as normal.
We’ll usually do Character night/Ship nights, but every few weeks we’ll mix it up and throw in a season night or an AU night or whatever.
---
That’s just a basic of what it’ll look like to me. Just because I’m streaming that day doesn’t mean I won’t write, or that I won’t answer asks. I’m just informing you guys of what’s up and letting those who DO want to check out the streams that those are the days.
With all that said, I checked the polls for tomorrow, and it looks like we’re talking about Brotp James/Clementine! And as for Sunday’s AU night, the Delta Gabe AU won!
It’ll be a super fun weekend, so I hope to have y’all join us in discussing these concepts! Also, let me know what’cha think of this- the streams, the themed nights, ect.
#long post#being in this new place as been a blessing#with all the shit going on i'm lucky to have it#and to have you guys#seriously let me know what you think#the idea of playing other choice-like games#either from telltale or otherwise#sounds like a blast#also super excited to talk about the delta gabe concept on sunday#it's super interesting

Don't tell mom the dog-sitter's dead.
TL;DR at the bottom.
This didn't happen to me, it happened to my sister.
My sister moved up to SC from FL about a year ago, but she still visits us periodically. We're a big and close family. Shortly after Thanksgiving, she flew down with her husband and son for one such visit. She has 3 geriatric dogs, so she got a house/dog sitter.
MS (my sister) went through the basics of how they can only be fed at certain times. They get let out at certain times. They need to be in their crates from X hour to Z hour. Most importantly, they don't get treats. They get vitamins in place of treats, but those vitamins have to be given only twice a day. No people food. Very strict diets. They're all happy and healthy, but only because MS is so strict with their regime.
This lady she got to watch her dogs had stellar reviews on the site she was found through. She's a stay-at-home mom who does this as a side thing for extra cash. I feel like I can end it here, you all can guess where this is going.
MS left for Florida for a week. The first 5 days, everything is going well. DS (dog sitter) texts MS regularly or video calls. She shows MS pictures and gives her regular updates of when she comes and goes to MS's house. MS just bought that house, btw. She's been working her butt off to finally be able to afford it. She puts so much into making that a nice home for her family.
MS has some health problems herself. She's got a ton of prescription medication in her medicine cabinet. She brought enough for the week, but left the rest at home. Stuff for epilepsy, asthma, and allergies. But she's also got a ton of pain killers from when she had my nephew not that long ago. She's paranoid about becoming addicted, so she kept the pills for safety, but never used them. It's a full bottle.
On top of that, she's been a collector of rare beer for about 15 years now. Beer that's not even sold anymore because they were promotional from micro breweries. Beer she can't get anymore because she doesn't live in Florida. Those bottles, she keeps as mostly decoration in her kitchen.
On the 6th day of her vacation, DS stops all communication altogether. MS texts, calls, emails. Nothing. Radio silence. She's got a bad feeling, but she doesn't want to kill the mood because she doesn't get to see her family very often anymore.
Day 7, she gets on a late flight back to SC. The plane gets there around 2 in the morning. They drive an hour to their rural town. They get home. The front door is wide open. The lawn looks like someone in a truck (which DS happened to drive) just tried to go drifting over grass and a tree before vacating the premises super quick.
MS goes to handle my nephew who is groggy and screaming. It's been a rough day. She's thinking the worst. That someone robbed the house while this poor lady was there. MS's husband (BiL) goes inside to survey the damages. It's all clear, MS and Nephew go inside too.
The back door is wide open. The couch looks like it exploded. The rug in the living room and the couch, and pretty much every square foot on the bottom floor is covered in the kind of pee and poop that can only be made from 3 geriatric furry buttholes.
The dogs are, thankfully, still in the backyard. But they're shivering and filthy. There are broken beer bottles everywhere. Some have been stuffed deep in the trash to hide the evidence. Some have been refilled with water and put back with their tops precariously situated on top so they might look like they haven't been touched.
82 bottles, each growler sized (roughly 64 oz) - gone. The medicine cabinet is like one of those Western ghost town's with a tumbleweed bouncing through. MS is already thinking this DS threw herself a party. No way in heck could someone 5'6'', 170 lbs, drink that much beer and take that many pills and not be dead.
MS called the cops. Obviously. The police get there to figure this must be a break in. They take a bunch of pictures, take an account of all the bottles and drugs that were missing. MS cleans what she can, but gets to sleep because thankfully the upstairs hasn't been touched.
One day later, the police find DS. MS has assumed she's dead and abducted, so the police were looking for her and her car. They found the truck run off the side of a highway, with this lady about two miles up, tweaking OUT OF HER MIND walking along the side of the road, screaming at nothing.
They take her in for whatever charges. Idk. Her husband bails her out and picks her up. According to her husband, this has happened before. DS has a drug and alcohol problem.
At first, she's messaging my sister, super apologetic, saying she'll reimburse MS and please don't press charges. MS quotes her the price of the rug, a new couch, and the vet bills because her dogs had somehow gained access to 9 containers of doggie vitamins and one of them was having liver failure. (The dog is fine now, but she's an old yorkie so who knows. Also, MS buys in bulk from a wholesaler, hence 9 containers). The total was somewhere around $800. MS didn't bother with the beers, the meds, the lawn, cleaning the house. She could have. Heck, I would have.
On top of that, MS demanded DS never dog sit again and she had to refund MS for her dog sitting. MS works in advertising. I won't say what kind, but basically if she saw/sees DS advertising herself as a dog sitter ever again, she has the means to drag this lady until all she sees is mud for the rest of her life.
DS insists she'd gonna pay it back, but that MS has to wait until they get their taxes back. Ok. So MS waits. Late February, she texts DS asking where her money is. DS immediately starts saying how she didn't do anything wrong, MS is a bad dog owner and her dogs are miserable, none of the stuff MS says DS did was actually done. MS has all the old texts of DS admitting to all of it sooo....?
This goes on for a while. Eventually, DS starts saying how "as a courtesy" she has a friend who owns a furniture store, she will give MS a credit of $200 for a new couch. And she has an old rug she doesn't want anymore that MS can have.
Erm... what?
She payed MS about $500, but and insists she'll get the coupon to MS soon. March goes by. Nothing.
Around March 20th, MS marches her happy butt to the small claims court and files. Then she snaps pictures of everything. Then she sends DS the message. "As a courtesy, I'm letting you know that I just filed this at the small claims court."
Then the fun starts. This lady goes OFF on MS. She says she's going to sue for slander and undue distress and harassment and blah blah blah blah blah. MS saves all of it, including the fun bits where DS threatens her family and calls her the C-word 20-dozen times.
Today is what? April 6th? Tuesday was the court date. Things move fast in a small town, idk. This lady shows up looking like she just got run through by a garbage disposal. She gives the judge her sob-story, talking about how she did nothing but give MS and her animals the best care, that MS is making all this up.
Yeah. MS has the OG cop with her. She's got pictures of all the damage, the vet bills, the bottles, proof that she was out of town, police reports of both the "break-in" as well as DS's DWI the following day. DS tries to spin it with that one law about how you can't serve alcohol to a known alcoholic. That obviously gets thrown right tf out.
DS then tries to appeal to Judge and MS's sense of humanity. She tells them how her husband just left her and is suing her for full custody (good!) and that if she can't dog-sit how is she supposed to support herself or ever get her kids back (tough cookies!). The judge takes my sister's side, for obvious reason, come tf on.
DS is homeless now, living with her parents. She can't see her kids, who btw don't want to see her. Apparently she was a drunk who ran her hubby's credit all the way down, she was abusive to her kids, and because of her heavy alcohol abuse - one of her kids has FAS. DS has 60 days to pay the remaining $300 or she faces jail time (idk how much time, sorry). Her husband filed for divorce already. Oh, and she lost her license thanks to that DWI.
As a former addict myself and someone who's been through a DWI, I want to sympathize. That's a lot of stuff to go through. MS gave her chance after chance, but at some point, you have to take responsibility for your actions. It really seems like this lady has just been using her husband as a crutch while she tries to get better, only to backslide hard. It's rough, I know. I hope she gets the help she needs.
MS's dogs are doing well. She got a replacement couch on Amazon for like $75 and a nice fluffy rug for even less. DS eventually coughed up that coupon. It didn't even work. It was for something like 20% off with a purchase of $500 or more, so um...no thanks.
TL;DR: World's poopiest dog-sitter trashes my sister's house after going on a bender. Claims she didn't do that, while also promising to pay for the damages. Never pays. Gets taken to court. Loses her home, job, kids, and marriage.

TWD 10x05: What It Always Is - First Thoughts
I originally started writing a ginormous post and the realized that I would need to break it into two: first thoughts and details. The bigger one, of course, will be Details, and I’ll post that on Tuesday. Today, I’m just going to give a few thoughts on broader arcs and, of course, the Donnie stuff.
***As always, spoilers abound below for 10x05. Don’t read until you’ve watched!!!***
There were five major sections here: the opening sequence with Kelly, Negan/Brandon, Aaron/Gamma/Alpha, Ezekiel, and Magna/Connie/Daryl.
Kelly/Opening Sequence:
The opening sequence with Kelly definitely has some TD symbolism in it, which I’ll get into more tomorrow. I was right that Kelly didn’t die here, but I do think this foreshadows something bigger down the road.
There’s all the Beth-ish symbolism, which suggests it may foreshadow something to do with Beth, or be a parallel to Beth in some way. But there’s also missing stuff that we didn’t see. I had to watch it more than once to catch this, but in the opening sequence, we see Kelly sit down against a boulder, and a walker reaches out for her.
When Daryl, Magna, and Connie find her, she’s sitting against a tree, and we don’t know what actually happened with that walker. The assumption is that she fought it off and kept running, falling down by the tree a little ways away. But still, there’s stuff there we didn’t actually witness, which I think is significant. I still think the walker reaching for her foreshadows her being taken by the Whisperers in some form.
Negan/Brandon:
So in terms of the arc, this definitely leads to Negan going to the Whisperers camp. That follows the CBs, and we figured this would happen. As I’ve said many times, I’m glad to see this because I think something about Negan’s arc here will lead to Beth.
The first thing we saw was Negan near some water. Brandon obviously idolizes Negan and keeps trying to be the perfect Savior to impress him. I think at least part of this, where Negan is concerned, had to do with him realizing he doesn’t want that way of life anymore. He likes TF’s way of life better. In the CBs, he goes to the Whisperers camp to prove his loyalty to Rick, and it seems to me like they’re doing something similar in the show. After Brandon kills Milo—who I think reminded Negan of Carl—he decides he wants to go back, but knows he won’t be welcome unless he proves his loyalty. So he’s off to the Whisperer camp.
And how about the school bus? It’s mostly GREEN with red and blue stripes on it.
They honestly focused way more on the kid, Milo, than on the Mom, Amelia. I had to sit and think about the bus symbol for a bit, though. I kind of realized that I don’t have a specific meaning for the bus. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve done several theories on school buses (X) and I know it’s related to Beth’s arc, or at least the death fake out arcs. But what does it specifically stand for? I’m not sure. Looking at how it’s functioned, this is what I came up with.
I thought it might stand for something that SHOULD have saved people, but didn’t. In 4a, lots of people left the prison on the bus when it went down. It was their escape plan. But they all died anyway. Similarly, in 5x05, Abraham and co were on the short bus, which should have carried them a ways safely, but it crashed.
You could also argue that someone who was SUPPOSED to die on the bus, didn’t. In S4, that would have been Glenn. Maggie left him on the bus and thought he was on it, but he got off and she didn’t realize. Similarly, as bad as the crash in 5x05 was, it’s kind of amazing no one died or even sustained serious injuries.
So what about this scene with Negan? I’m not sure. He saved Amelia and Milo, which means they should have lived. But Brandon killed them, and they died. So if anything, it’s kind of the opposite of what we’ve seen elsewhere. So I’m not entirely sure what to make of this yet. I know I say this a lot, but it will probably make more sense when we understand more of where Negan’s arc is going.
I’m wondering if he’ll somehow rescue Beth or some other kids from some kind of situation represented by the bus. He also made a big deal about how he would never kill a kid. That was partly to make him a foil to Brandon, who was obviously mildly homicidal. But I also think that’s a foreshadowing that we’ll see him protecting kids at some point in the future. We’ve already seen him save/protect Judith. I’ll we’ll see it again with either her or others So, I’ll keep an eye on this moving forward.
Aaron/Gamma/Alpha:
This actually starts with Aaron. He’s practicing his weaponry on a bridge, which is kind of interesting. He doesn’t fall off of it, so it’s not exactly foreshadowing a death fake out for him. But I think he’ll be taken from the community (represented by the bridge) in some way. At this part, we also saw a spiders web near him. (Yes, I know this pic is super blurry. I couldn’t get a decent shot of the spiders web. It went by too fast. The blur at the top left is the spider.)
I think I mentioned this before, but the spider is symbol for Alpha. Siddiq hallucinated a spider synonymously with reliving the be-headings in 10x01. He saw the spider and then saw Alpha in the barn with the machete. Since then, I’ve noticed spiders or spider’s webs several times just before something happened with the Whisperers.
So here, I would have said that Aaron would end up with the Whisperers at some point. Like, maybe this represented that they’d take him from his community. Well, we got confirmation before the end of the episode that at least Alpha wants to do this. She tells Gamma that Aaron might be useful. So I’ve said that I think some people will be taken captive and/or taken somewhere by Alpha. I’m mostly focused on Connie for that, which I’ll talk more about in a minute, but I’ve toyed with the idea of Aaron being involved. Mostly because Rick gave him Gracie in S8, which I think a foreshadow of something else.
Yeah, I think it’s safe to say he’ll be involved somehow. But I think all the associations are important here. Let’s talk about Gamma poisoning the water.
I said that the satellite falling represented Wormwood, which poisons all the water. So after it fell, the water would start being poisoned. And what do you know? Only a few episodes later, Gamma is trying to poison the water.
I honestly don’t know if this is the endgame for the “bad water” symbolism. Maybe, but it seems like kind of small potatoes, so it may only be one small portion of the symbolism. Or it may foreshadow something much bigger down the road.
But in terms of associations, we had Aaron seeing the poisoning happening, and then approach Gamma when she got hurt. That feels like a foreshadow of a much bigger arc for him that has to do with the poisoned water and the Whisperers.
Also, despite what she says, Gamma seems to be having some trouble processing her sister’s death. She’s having an almost Siddiq-like PTSD reaction to it now, which is how she hurt her hand to begin with.
In the Whisperer camp, we learn that they’re damning up the creek and trying to poison the water in order to crush TF. Again, I’m not convinced this is the endgame of the bad water stuff, but it’s interesting, and will definitely play into it.
Ezekiel:
Yeah, he has thyroid cancer. So all the theories about him being sick were true. But so was what we said: if he has cancer, maybe it can be treated with radiation. Guess what, guys? There’s basically not an easier cancer to treat than thyroid cancer. As they said in the episode, it has a 98% survival rate in our world. And that’s important. If they were just going to do a tragic death for him, because TF no longer has the medical resources in the apocalypse that they would have had in the old world, they wouldn’t be so heavily emphasizing that this type of cancer used to be survivable.
There are two major treatments for this type of cancer. Removal of the lump, and radiation. That’s pretty much it. And I’m sure most of you saw the spoilers this past week that TWD was filming in downtown Atlanta again, including filming people with white lab coats that looked a lot like doctors and even walkers wearing police uniforms. (Grady anyone?) So whether it’s actually Grady or just something very similar to them, I think our theories about Zeke’s cancer being treated with radiation are right on track.
Daryl/Connie/Magna:
Yeah, Magna is definitely spiraling. They had an interesting conversation between her and Yumiko. It sounds like Magna was in prison for killing someone who killed her cousin. Yumiko thought she didn’t actually do it, but Magna admitted that she did. Yeah, that’s kind of a problem. I’m sure the guy who killed her cousin deserved it, but it also shows that she’s willing to go vigilante if she feels she’s being treated unfairly, as also evidenced by her stealing supplies. So it will be interesting to see how this progresses, but I have a feeling we’re headed for catastrophe.
Next, on the Donnie stuff (or lack thereof). I’ve already addressed this somewhat, but I’ll say what I’ve already told my group and my fellow theorists.
I’m usually prepared for what small potatoes the Donnie or Caryl stuff is compared to what a big deal the shippers make about it. But this seemed more ridiculous to me than most other instances. Like, there was really, REALLY nothing there.
The scene everyone freaked out about where he told her the Merle story and clasped her hand? The thing I didn’t connect is that they weren’t even alone at that point. Magna was out with them, which the spoilers mentioned, but I just didn’t internalize it. So while Daryl is telling Connie that story, Magna is standing like ten feet away. She’s just not in the shot. (Okay, probably more than ten feet, but you get my meaning.)
There was definitely some Beth symbolism in there, which I’ll go over tomorrow. But I think something this clip is trying to show is how much more effectively Daryl interacts with people now. I noticed this and started thinking about it last week with Lydia. He’s been more touchy with everyone—Lydia, Michonne, Carol, of course—and obviously he’s not in love with all of them (which shows, by extension, that he’s not in love with any of them). While there’s obviously some huge symbolism and Beth vibes in this scene, I also feel like there are literal/plot take always here. Beth taught Daryl how to interact with people. Not only through touch but through sharing personal stories. There is a moment in this scene where Connie is upset and blaming herself and you see Daryl think about it for a minute before following her and launching into his story. I feel like he might have been thinking about Beth in that moment and how him telling her a story about Merle not only helped them connect but helped her feel better about her situation and stop blaming herself, so he did the same with Connie. And it worked. I also think it hearkens back to what Norman and the writers always say about Daryl’s feelings for Beth: that he didn’t understand them. By extension, he wouldn’t have had the first idea how to express them. I think this is the way they’re showing his emotional growth. So when Beth returns, he WILL recognize his own feelings and WILL be able to express them.
One more thing? Remember that every long term, soul mate couple we’ve seen on the show has done the intertwined fingers. The camera focused on him clasping Connie’s hand and they specifically DIDN’T intertwine their fingers. That’s as big and purposeful a statement as anything. This was their chance to foreshadow romance, and they very purposefully didn’t do it.
This is becoming a very close friendship, and I thought this scene was very sweet. It’s a healthy relationship—much like the one he has with Michonne, and far healthier than the one he has with Carol—but this scene specifically told us that’s it’s not heading in the romance direction. If it were, we would have seen a different kind of hand hold.
Then there’s the end scene. Connie apologizes to Daryl for asking him to lie for Magna (about her stealing the supplies). He shrugs it off and says, “Family, right?” She smiles and then points to him and then herself (You and me) and makes the sign for family as well. Then Daryl smiles.
So it’s cute and sweet. But I think it’s important because, now that she’s said that, I think we all know Daryl would do anything for her. Just like Carol or Michonne or Aaron or anyone else, if something happens to her, or to anyone she cares about (such as Magna’s group) you know he’ll be right there to help. So they’re setting this up pretty much exactly as I thought they would.
(Notice that she doesn’t say, you and me, lovers! 😆) Also, Daryl leaves at the end. So once again he’ll be at Alexandria and she’ll be at Hilltop. Yeah, that’s what people who are in love and want to spend their lives together act. Okay, I’ll stop with the sarcasm.
My point is that this puts them squarely in the friend zone. This is what I mentioned the other day when I said the writers pretty much confirm this to be a familial, rather than romantic bond. I still think it’s possible that Connie harbors some feelings for Daryl, but this, combined with the lack of entwined fingers, means it will never be more than friendship.
I also want to point out that this entire conversation happened right next to Daryl’s motorcycle, which might be a foreshadow of something. 😉 (My theory about him and Carol leaving together on the motorcycle to find Connie.)
Okay, I’ll stop there for today. Details tomorrow!

Survey #225
“i tried to write your name in the rain, but the rain never came.”
How many times a day do you check your cell to see if you have a text? Considering my dumb phone doesn't let me know I have texts half the time, I do multiple times throughout the day. Ever wonder if the person you hate will become the person you marry? HA HA YOOOOOOOOOOOO SARA AND I DID AND NOW I DEADASS WANNA MARRY HER TOMORROW How many times a day do you wash your hands? It varies. After I use the bathroom or if I'm about to touch food. You walk in on your parents smoking pot, what do you do? lol h u h How old were you when you had your first crush? Hell if I know. I do remember as a young kid though, I was very much "ew boys no thnx." Maybe like... 5th grade? When was the last time you asked God for something? A long, long time ago. Your opinion on smoking: Just don't, dude. It's money going towards gradual suicide. No one likes the smell. You sure won't like how it affects your body. It's an addiction/it's stressful to stop. I'm not gonna like, judge you if you smoke, but nevertheless, I'll tell anyone it's an awful idea. Make love or fuck? It depends on the mood. I was more into the former mood back when that even applied to me, though. Have you ever cried so much over something that later felt like nothing? Oh, I can assure you I have. The last time you were afraid of the dark was: I'm not really scared of the dark, but one time I got up semi-recently in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, and after one incident, I was so, so careful and nervous to step on Bentley's tail. He lost his fucking mind on me when I did it once, of course on accident. The TV was off by this point, so I couldn't see well at all. I love having a dog that fucking scares me. How often do you say I love you to your parents and mean it? A whole lot. Your boyfriend/girlfriend say they can’t hang out & it’s been two weeks. You? I mean sure, it sucks, but if they're legitimately busy, they're busy. Have you ever wanted a wild animal for a pet? If yes what animal? I had a phase where I really wanted a fox, and now I am DEAD serious about fostering opossums at some point. When you go to sleep, do you have to have white noise or silence? SILENCE. Though I don't really get /total/ silence 'cuz I have to have my fan on. My room's always hot. Have you ever gotten in a fight with a teacher? No. Ever had a creepy dream about a teacher? No. Where were you when you had your first sleepover? Your house or a friends’? I believe I was at my then-best friend's house. I had suuuuch bad separation anxiety from my mom that I know I was older than most kids who did. What are you limits for doing stuff for money? I'd never do sexual favors or seriously hurt someone for it. Is there someone you are mean to all the time for no reason? No. I'll admit I'm typically rather short with Bentley, but Jesus, do I have reason. When you think of love what’s the first that comes to mind? Sara. How do you calm your mind and find peace when you are stressed? My best bet is going to sleep; that's pretty much, usually, my reset button. Have you ever given someone flowers? I gave Jason flowers once or twice. I gave my mom some for Mother's Day as a kid. How often do you get on Facebook? A couple times a day... mainly just to see memes lmaoooo. What day of the week is usually your busiest day? Good Lord, Tuesdays. I'm at school for 13 hours. Mostly sitting in the library waiting for classes, but. I do study a whole lot, though, and it's when I get a bunch of schoolwork done. Is there a place that you will never return back to? Idk. When was the last time that you created a PowerPoint? I'm actually working on/off one for FYS 'cuz we have to do this "Lifeline" thing where we introduce ourselves and give our stories. Guess who's not fucking ready. Do you like group work? NO. NO. Particularly if it's with people I don't know. Do you have any stickers on your laptop? No. Is music or the TV on while you complete this survey?

Ew no thanks. Can you curse in a foreign language? Of course I know "fuck" and "shit" in German lmao. Are you fond of spaghetti? Hell yeah man. Have you ever played in the mud? I sure did zoom through it on my bike as a kid. Do you remember what your first real relationship felt like? That relationship ultimately led to PTSD, how could I possibly forget. Who can make you happy no matter what? Sara, Mark, and Game Grumps are particularly good at that. How tall are you? 5'4.5'' Are there any animals near you? No, I'm at school rn. Do have a lot of lists? No. Are you a godparent? No. Do you sleep too much or not enough? Eh, it depends on the day and my mood. Have you ever gone a full day without interacting with another person? Yep. How many relationships have you been in that lasted less than a year? Four. Where were you going the last time you were on a train? Never been on one before. Do you think having a bad temper is a sign of immaturity? I mean, no? It's an interesting question and I guess a "maybe," but. I feel this depends on the trigger.

I guess? It wasn't dirty. How many watches do you own? Zero. Are there any ways in which you greatly differ from everyone else in your family? Political views, I guess? Or the fact I'm bi? I only know of one person in my extended family that's gay. Should teenagers be allowed to have their cell phones with them in class? No shit? Emergencies are a thing? BUT, respect the teacher, please. I cannot stand people using their phone in class, especially here in college. You're paying a shitload to learn. Spend that time as you're supposed to. Take education seriously. If your phone's on vibrate for said emergency situations, that's cool. Do you have any gay relatives? Lol oh. Yeah, Mom has a cousin. Have you ever had to have a pet put down? Yeah. Have you unfollowed, deleted, or blocked anyone on social media recently?

How many cups of coffee do you typically drink per day? Zero. Do you know what your vocal range is? It's not broad. I'd say I'm probably in a rank slightly lower than most women.

I will BINGE that shit to the ends of the earth. Have you ever turned down someone who didn’t handle the rejection well? Ha ha oh man, I remember in 4th grade, this kid Nick was desperate to date me.

I don't know how to cook. Do you develop crushes easily? NO. I am soooooo romantically picky. What’s the longest you’ve ever stayed as a guest at someone’s house?

What’s your opinion on gold diggers? Selfish, or smart? Both? Uh, I don't think it's exactly debatable to call it selfish... I mean, you're dating for the sake of monetary gain...?

I know at least one of Mom's friends that I've only met once, and briefly. How old is 'too old’ for you to date?

What’s the funniest thing you’ve ever heard a kid say? So when I was very little and my mom gave me orange juice, I freaked out because it had pulp in it. And what did I say? "I CAN'T DRINK THAT IT HAS NIPPLES IN IT" look idk don't ask but boy does Mom love sharing that story. A random stranger walks up to you and says 'you’re hot’. You say: Most likely "go away." Possibly "thank you, but please go away." Actually yeah, that's more likely. Like it's flattering to know someone finds you attractive, but yeah, that's just uncomfortable for some stranger to do that. I also wouldn't want to really piss the person off. Do you send messages on Facebook a lot? Definitely not. Almost the only person ever would be Girt. Have you ever gone to a strip club? No. Not my kinda scene. Like I absolutely will not think less of someone who does this, but I just don't like but moreso feel bad for men or women who reduce themselves to their sexual capabilities. Do you like Chinese food over pizza? Hell nah man. Pizza is supreme. What color is your watch? I'm not wearing one. I never do. Do you believe in love at first sight? Absolutely not. Visual attraction, of course that's real, but I promise you dear, you don't love someone upon looking at them. When you eat Frosted Flakes, do you add sugar in it? I hate that stuff. Who’s the biggest hugger you know? Ashley's father-in-law's mom. ... At least I think that's what she is? Do you want to change your name? Nah, it's fine. Have you ever tried to erase someone from your memory? Of course I have.
