#muttering about not writing

[shellyscribbles]

I have been thinking so much about Kallias and his development but I am exhausted and constantly nauseous so I haven't written any of it.

When I get back to writing though, I have so much for him.

Currently imagining Arthur + Gwen + the knights asking someone (maybe druids?) who this famous "Emrys" is and they proceed to do a version of "We Don't Talk About Bruno" while Arthur, Gwen and the knights grow increasingly more distressed with each line and Merlin hyperventilates in the background

genuinely just OBSESSED with this hc that apple is a complete and utter MESS when it comes to her relationship with darling.

like it's such a funny contrast for the people who know her because this is Apple White; she is calm and polite and put together, and in all the years she dated daring, she was so fucking chill about everything.

daring dating other girls? didn't give a shit. everyone's wondering why they aren't affectionate in public? well, they're just teenagers they have forever after yk. when will they go steady? they have the rest of their destinies to worry about that.

you get my drift; apple does not give a single shit when it comes to this relationship because she is so in control of it. the actual 'relationship' aspect isn't really important to her and as such she's so composed in terms of her relationship with daring.

but throw DARLING in the picture and then there's apple running around like a headless chicken, being absolutely CLUELESS about what to do now that she actually has feelings for someone.

i'd like to have an entire episode of darling and apple going out on a date where there's basically a reverse situation of the dexven date ep where raven keeps trying to hype apple up and keep her calm while thinking 'dear god was i really like this???'

meanwhile, apple's hyperventilating over here just thinking about what to wear, what jewelry will match with her dress, if she's overdoing it or not, whether she should get darling a gift or something, what if she's overdressed or underdressed, and will darling like the food where they're going, and if darling even likes her at all the way she likes darling-

in the end raven grabs dexter and she says fuck this shit you and i are going undercover and tailing them, im too worried for this lesbian disaster.

dexter agrees because he's just come from helping rosabella hide all of darling's armor and assorted weaponry and they had both enlisted the help of the wonderlandians to make sure darling didn't have a breakdown every 3 seconds every time she realized she was actually going on a date with apple.

shenanigans are ensuing and rosabella and raven are getting the worst of it by this point, but they love apple and darling too much so they put up with it.

hey. don't feel bad about writing submas angst. gamefreak did that to them. exploring that space and playing in it is entirely reasonable. it makes sense to want to look at the twins' separation, and the different ways things could go after PLA/what happened to separate the two of them. just tag it, like you would anything else, and move on your happy way.

it does not make you ableist to explore canon. and hey, as an autistic adult? ive written a power fantasy where emmet gets to be unhinged with an axe! i have 5k of nonhuman ingo human emmet written up and not posted because when i was a kid i always hoped i was some fae thing and not human! my power fantasies encompass those things and so much more.

none of this is inherently ableist. emmet did not go apeshit because he is autistic- he went apeshit because the world stole the most important person out of his life and he would not let that stand. in any of the many aus i have where one twin or the other is nonhuman, it's not because they're autistic, it's because they're copying the other twin, and there's other people in the world that are also like that! it's my personal power fantasy, and I'm going to write it! it's not inherently ableist!

finally, certainly none of this is comparable to an extended hate campaign intended to wipe autistic people out of existence. don't feel bad about writing these things. tag them, make sure you're not doing it Because they're autistic. and then don't espouse any autism $peaks bullshit and you will be fine.

if you try to argue that your experience is more authentic/important than mine i will block you. please learn about competing access needs, and move on

being a fan of any other character feels like giving somebody a genuine heartfelt compliment, being a fan of rincewind feels like nonstop day and night 25/8 staring into your aquarium where a lonely sickly shrimp resides never leaving it out of your sight and screaming at the top of your lungs when it eats or gets slightly better because you've been medicating it carefully for the last month and left your job just to care for it

Do we think odysseus started pranking Athena and her temples at some point? Because I do. He argued that it was good for sneaking and evading training. And you know what Athena couldn't argue that. Her chasing odysseus across the island was good training.

Okay okay it's like 1 am but I need to draw Klaasje because I'm having some THOUGHTS about her... What if Harry arrests Klaasje and she ends up spending some time in prison before breaking out and going on the run again. PRISON BREAK KLAASJE. DO YOU SEE MY VISION?????

Anyways, my melatonin is kicking in now... What if she magically stumbles upon Ruby they have a horrible terrible reunion and she hides out in Ruby's truck for a while?

Today is so not going as planned. I was so ready to get all my chores done, do a bunch of writing and read.

I managed some reading and then everything went off the rails and all I have done is a little cleaning and answered a lot of questions on X.

Well, I get to write now at least.

god... work is such a shitshow rn. my company is failing everyone (status quo) and I'm playing the role of atlas (status quo), and what I NEED to do is not give a fuck when they come yelling screaming at me for not doing enough.

the problem is that I fucking care!! i care too goddamned much!! i care that people are getting screwed over and i care that half our shit doesn't work and i care that i've been stuck on a single project for so goddamned long and barely inching along in terms of progress!!! they're going to demand receipts for why I haven't done more, and the simple answer is my adhd!! but when every meeting is my boss trying to wring new excuses or progress reports out of us instead of actually giving a shit about what we do here or why anyone's struggling...

my head hurts. the right thing to do, genuinely, is to tell my boss to shove it up his ass. his company didn't want to hire someone with actual time and talent to play manager, then don't come complaining to me when our whole shop is mismanaged. (that's YOUR job, bucko!!!!!)

but i just care too goddamned much. and when the truth is that the One thing i'm sensitive about is whether or not I can fight my body and mind hard enough to actually get things in my life done...

...this week is going to suck.

Here's a funny thing about me and shipping. I crave the slow burn.

It's hard for me to get invested in a relationship when the writers clearly intend for the characters to get together from the beginning. Even in the slowest of slow burns when it comes to "canon" relationships, it doesn't hit right for me. Because there's always at least a little bit of a romantic gaze between the characters from the start, tinting their storyline from the beginning. They exist in that relationship explicitly as part of their stories.

Which is fine! I find plenty of ships like this to be cute and fun, and fully support people who are into them.

But those aren't the ones I go feral for. Those relationships don't have me reading 100k fanfic late into the night, or hunting down whatever meta analysis I can sink my teeth into.

I crave a full picture of characters, who they are outside of each other, their own personal goals and arcs, all laid atop a foundation of a deep and complex relationship before romance even comes into it.

And THEN I hit em with the non-platonic feelings.

It's the sort of relationship that comes far more naturally to fanfiction, where the original foundation is already laid out, and very very rarely to canon ships.

Which is why it's so special to me that I think I'm getting the most fully realized version of this, in canon, slow burn, beautiful and complex and with a full foundation, in Suvi and Ame.

Who knows, maybe they won't get together. And since I know Aabria lurks around corners here, I'd like to stress that it not being canon would be absolutely fine and still a fantastic story at the whims of the players/writers. (After all, as mentioned above, I'm well versed in the worlds of fanfic and getting my ship fix there where it does not fit in canon.)

And if they do get together? Oh baby, I hope it's not for a long time. I hope they don't acknowledge or voice it aloud for so many arcs to come. I hope I finally have the canon slowest of burns epic lesbian love story of my dreams.

"I'm busy!!! Come back later!!!!"

I feel like Usopp would be the sort of person to avoid a serial killer....entirely by accident. Like that person at the bank who just refused to read the ransom note from the bank robber.

Later he finds out there was a killer wandering around and is horrified lmaooo

Day 3: Usopp!
