#our best meme from all of the olympics is a guy

[jaythelay]

Olympics every fucking time:

We're unfairly making shit up, there are no rules, we decide who wins, we have irradiated/dangerously filthy waters for the swim team, anti-sex beds, some of the worst places for the athletes to stay, not including the countries we send them too, we hired a russian organization that calls any athelete that beats their person, trans, and we constantly make decisions that go against the nature of a sport by randomly deciding people lost for some reason.

Yeah why is this still a thing? Most of the games are basically set up to be rigged one way or another? Like they just did that. They literally are doing that right now. Again.

Who're the olympics for? It seems less sport and more god awful reality TV anymore. Seems more dangerous than it's worth too, when Russia can cause a hatemob upon an athelete simply for winning (Imane) and the pool for the swim team is in the equivalent of a polluted sewer.

III. Spend Time With Me

The Next Chapter Masterlist

< Previous Chapter • You Are Here • Next Chapter >

Warnings: Sugar baby jokes, Bokuto and Kuroo being sneaky little shits, maybe talk of past feelings? 🙈

Your fingertips come to brush against the long necklace hanging from you neck, fidgeting with the padlock that hung there, grinning at the volleyball player as he approaches you. “The picture didn’t do you any justice, babe,” with his arms stretching open, he pulls you into an embrace. “You are looking... Absolutely amazing... That shirt from Kenma?”

   Glancing down at the dark shirt, you spot the writing ‘Kodzuken’s sugarbaby’ across your chest. Rolling your eyes, you shrug, “He got it specially made for me and everything. Doesn’t exactly lie though, now does it?”

   Bokuto lets a loud laugh rumble through him, arm draping itself over your shoulders and guiding you towards the café. “So, tell me about what you have been up to. Last I heard, you’d only just started your channel, and now look at you: getting close to two million subscribers. How does that feel?”

   “Why’d you say it like some game show host?” Laughter cuts you off momentarily, “But it’s great, Kō. I always thought I’d end up like you and play volleyball, until I grew old. Getting to do something that makes me as happy as this does is great. Not to mention, streaming with Kenma gives me a chance to spend time with him. You’d be surprised at how busy he is, for someone who never leaves the apartment.”

Bokuto raises an eyebrow as he looks down at you. Despite you and Kenma always swearing up and down that neither of you were anything more than good friends and roommates, you both spent a lot of time with one another... And talking about one another.

It always seemed like there were other things going on between you two. Even during your last year of high school together, you both had been inseparable.

Everyone knew it, as well. No one could ever confirm or deny what they thought was going on between you two, so no one ever asked.

   When you both entered the quaint café, together, the few people seated throughout the café fell silent. A flash of familiarity ran over quite a few faces at the sight of one of Japan’s finest volleyball players and a rather popular Youtuber and Twitch streamer. And for some, both of you were recognized.

   Both of you step up to the counter, ordering drinks and pastries for the both of you. Some came up for autographs, while you both got settled, while others just stared. But it wasn’t anything that deterred you both from your conversations.

   “You should have seen it, I mean, they brought down the entire shelf. It took two hours for the entire team to put all of them back where they were supposed to go.” Kōtarō grins at the way you laugh at his recalling of their first practice as the Olympic Team. “Now they’re separating us all up into groups,” he laughs with a sheepish hand on the back of his neck.

    Then, his eyes light up, “You should come and visit us! Be our manager, or train with us, whatever! It’ll get you away from your life online! It might be fun for you to meet everybody!”

   Giving the eccentric male a tilt of your head and a grin, you shrug your shoulders, “Maybe one day, but I still have quite a bit of editing to get through, you know?” 

   Bokuto reaches to grasp his cup of herbal tea - coffee wasn’t always the best thing for the already rather energetic volleyball player. 

   “Suit yourself, but don’t come crying, when you realize how much that you’re missing out on.” Looking at you over his cup, he raises an eyebrow at you. He knew you too well. That’s why he was expecting your next words.

   “What’s that supposed to mean? You know what, fine, I’ll go with you. Starting... Next Monday, because I do still have quite a bit of editing to get through.” 

   Your friend grins in triumph, “Great, I can’t wait to introduce you to everybody. I’ll have Kuroo bring you, on Monday, alright?”

   You let yourself nod, sealing your fate, unknowing of the text that Bokuto sent to Kuroo not even minutes after your conversation was over. 

   ‘Got ‘em.’

The get-together over coffee was Bokuto’s idea. Kuroo only hatched his plan, after Bokuto had invited you out with him.

Everybody genuinely believes that you’re Kenma’s sugar baby. And hey, might as well be, at this point.

Fun fact: You and Bokuto lost your virginity to one another. (Which will come into play later, don’t worry.)

I hope you guys are all having an absolutely wonderful day! You guys better be remembering to eat, drink some water, and get some sleep (no, two hours is not enough). Remember though, no matter how small you might have thought your accomplishments today, I am so proud of you and so happy that you are here. Keep it up, darling!

Bucky Barnes Imagine; Secretly in love.

Hey guys! It feels so good to be finally back! I haven’t written anything in so long so, sorry if the imagines suck :( i’m trying my best to get back to writing and all. Also, please remember that English isn’t my first language, so if there are any grammar or spelling mistakes, please let me know! Thanks for reading and I hope you like it! 

Pairing; Bucky Barnes x Reader.

Warnings; Just fluff. 

Request; Hi lovely! I’m so glad you’re back :) can you please write a Bucky x reader where they’re best friends and are secretly in love, so when reader makes a joke that Peter is basically their child, Bucky gets all flushed and leaves quickly. He asks Steve what to do and he says Bucky should flirt with her for real and make it obvious he likes her. He does, but reader is oblivious so Bucky just flat out tells her and they end up cuddling and watching readers fav movie? Tysm, I hope it makes sense! 💕

It was around noon when Y/n woke up, she went to bed late last night because she’s been obsessed with this show and she wanted to watch the entire season in one night, that had her going to sleep at 5 am. 

While walking to the kitchen to grab something to drink, she heard the voices of Peter, Samuel, Steve and Bucky.

She smiled as she finally saw them, Peter and Samuel both in the kitchen, while Steve and Bucky were sitting down behind the stool, laughing at whatever Peter and Samuel were doing. As she got closer to them, she could see with more clarity Peter’s face, which was currently filled with flour, his eyes concentrated fully on his masterwork as he made sure to massage the dough on his hands, probably making pizza, she guessed. 

“I wake up a bit late and you guys have already messed up the kitchen.” she laughed as she stood a few feet from them, her hands on her waist as she looked at the mess that the kitchen was, obviously a work from Peter. She knew that him, being the youngest of them all, wanted to have some fun around the place, and probably Samuel saw him struggling and tried to help him. 

“I really take no part in this whole mess, we are mere spectators.” Steve said as he chuckled, Bucky who was sitting besides him didn't say anything but rested his eyes on her, softly gazing at her as she rolled her eyes and smiled. It was clear to say that both of them liked each other, yet they were not aware of each other’s feelings. In her mind, it was better for them to remain friends than to get in a relationship with the probability of breaking up and damaging their friendship, she didn't want to jeopardize that because of silly feelings that may not be reciprocated. 

In Bucky’s head, he thought that she wasn't interested in him as more than a friend, even though Natasha has always told him that she acted different around him, but he just brushed that off, thinking that the reason lied in the fact that she felt more comfortable around him than with the rest of them. He didn't want to create false scenarios in his head. 

“It’s actually quite funny to see how Peter gets himself into messy situations all the time.” she smiled as she walked towards him, Y/n then proceed to wash her hands and help Peter out. “You’re supposed to knead down on the dough, not slap it or whatever you’re doing..” she let out a laugh along with the rest of the team, her hands already cleaned started to knead down on the dough as Peter followed her actions, Samuel just let out a deep sigh and gave up. “Yep, that’s my cue to leave, finally.” he said before leaving the kitchen. 

“Hey! What did we say about quitters!?” Peter cried out when he saw Samuel, making him laugh shaking his head and placing his hands up in defeat as he walked towards his room, probably tired. 

Steve stood up from the seat as well. “Well, I’ve got stuff to do as well, so good luck with that.. pizza?” he said before leaving with a chuckle on his lips.

“How come you’re making pizza from scratch? You know you could’ve easily just changed into Spidey and go out to get some.” Y/n said to Peter as she helped out with the dough, making sure it was smooth enough to proceed with the next steps. 

“I told him that already, or that he could’ve asked me and Steve to bring him some while we were out in the city.” Bucky agreed with her as he stared at both of them, shaking his head with a chuckle ready against his lips. “I thought teenagers from this generation were supposed to be bit smarter..” he exclaimed, making both Y/n and Steve laugh as Peter rolled his eyes to him.

“Now, where would be the fun in that? Look how fun it is to play with the dough thingy! It brings back memories of a simpler life before Spiderman.” Peter slowly finished the sentence as his smile slowly faded from his lips, longing the times when he was just a normal boy from Queens. 

Both Bucky and Y/n stared at each other, feeling the sadness radiate from Peter as Y/n then talked. “It’s okay to feel sad sometimes. It’s okay to miss things how they used to be, but just remember of all the good things you’ve done so far, all the lives you’ve saved. Remember all of the things you’ve accomplished and the things you’ve yet to do.” she said in a soft voice as she looked at Peter. The smile on his lips slowly returned as he stared up at her, his eyes filled with adoration, the kind you’ll see in a little kid looking up to her mother whenever she did something that amazed him. “You can always come to me if you’re feeling sad or need any advice, you know. I’m here to help, and I’m pretty sure Bucky feels the same way.” she said as her eyes landed on Bucky, he smiled at her and nodded at Peter. 

“Totally, kid. I’m here if you need anything... well, only if you give me some extra slices.” he joked, leaning towards the stool and messing up Peter’s brown hair before sitting down again. Peter laughed as he nodded before kneading down once again on the dough, Y/n could only stare at the two of them with a silly smile on her face, it reminded her of the way her dad used to mess her brother’s hair.

In a way, she felt, Bucky and her were like Peter’s parents. He always came to them whenever he got exciting news or just to show them new funny memes. 

“You know, in a way, Peter’s like our child...” Y/n exclaimed, Peter was too busy trying to figure out how the oven works to hear what she had just said, but Bucky on the other hand, flushed a bit. His cheeks slowly turned red as he let out a shaky chuckle at what she had just said, scratching the back of his head. “Bucky...did you just...blush?” she slowly asked with a chuckle, walking towards him to then get closer to his face, inspecting the faint red color against them. “You did!” she giggled, it’s been some time since she’s seen Bucky blush at something, it made her heart warm and just added a bit more fuel to her crush on him.

“Okay! I think I figured out how to turn on the oven!” Peter exclaimed with a victorious smile on his face, lifting his arms up like he had just won the olympics, making both of them realize they were not completely alone.

“I.. I think I'm gonna let you guys finish your pizza, let me know when it’s finished..” Bucky quickly spoke before standing up from his chair, he didn’t even wait for a response before walking in a fast pace towards 

Y/n raised her eyebrow at his behavior, watching as he quickly walked away towards Steve’s room. Bucky was sure acting funny.

She just shrugged, and looked back at Peter. “Okay, chef. looks like it’s just you and me. Let’s get this pizza done, i'm starving!” she gave Peter a smile as they both tried to finish what they started.

 Meanwhile, on the other side of the Avengers Facility, Bucky paced around Steve’s room as he waited for him to come out of his shower, his arms crossed as he walked from side to side, taking his metal hand through his long raven hair from time to time as he was getting kind of impatient. So when he heard the bathroom’s door being opened and Steve walking out of it with just a towel around his waist, he breathed in relief, scaring Steve for a minute.

“Holy! Bucky, you do know that you have your own room, right?” Steve asked as he looked at Bucky, just now taking in his weird composure. “What’s going on? Is it Y/n?” he asked as he stared at his friend in front of him for a bit.

Bucky, on the other hand, was kinda surprised when Steve brought up her name, he hasn't said anything about her to anyone, wanting to keep his feelings to himself. Guess he wasn't that good at hiding things from his friend. “How did you know it was about her?” he asked curiously.

Steve let out a small smirk. “Oh, so it is about her!” he looked at his friend as if they were small kids and one of them had asked the other to help him out with a mischief before rolling his eyes at the question he had just asked. “C’mon, Bucky! I’m not that dense, you know.. I know when my best friend likes someone, and even more so when he’s too bad at keeping it to himself..” he chuckled, walking to pick out some clothes as Bucky ket pacing around the room. “Bucky, I swear you’re gonna make a hole in the floor from pacing around too much! What exactly happened?”

“Okay, so! We were out talking with the kid, how he missed the way his life was before the whole Spiderman thing, and she then said something along the lines of ‘Peter is kind of like our child’ and I blushed, Steve! I fucking blushed! Like a ten year old!” Bucky huffed out, throwing himself to the bed as he covered his face with his hands, groaning. 

Steve, meanwhile, was laughing out loud, it was so funny for him to imagine the big and bad Bucky Barnes, the ‘Winter Soldier’ blushing because of what little Y/n had said. He knew his friend really had it bad when it came to her, he hasn’t shown interest in a female in so long, so he knew it had to be something serious. “You know, you should just tell her you like her. Flirt with her, for real. You both are grown adults, you should try and make it work and if it doesn’t.. like I said, you’re both adults, you two can handle a simple thing as a break-up...” Steve explained, making it sound so easy. “Of course, I wouldn’t take myself too seriously cause as you know.. I really don’t have the best experiences with relationships..” he shrugged and ran his hand through his damped hair.

Bucky gave it a long thought as he stared at the ceiling on top of it, thinking hard as if it was a mission and they had to come up with a plan rather quickly. “You know what, I think you’re right.” Bucky lifted himself from the bed, sitting down as he looked at his friend. 

“I.. am?” Steve asked kind of surprised, looking at Bucky as he still had this ‘I'm in deep thought’ face.

“Yes! I can’t stay my whole life wondering wether she likes me too or not, I can’t keep my feelings bottled up, we both know life can be tricky and we’ve got to grab the opportunities whenever we’ve got them in front of us.” realization dawning on his face, the Winter Soldier breathed out, standing up from the bed as if someone had poured cold water to his face and he suddenly had all of the answers for the world’s problems.

“Okay, then? Good luck, buddy. Looks like you might need it.” that was the last thing he hard from Steve as Bucky walked outside his room, his mind filled with thoughts on how he would exactly tell her he liked her as more than friends.. Maybe he’d just start with some simple flirting, trying to make his intentions clear but not coming off too strong.. he just hoped it worked out, he’s not experienced in thsi field.

Later that night, after eating the pizza Peter and Y/n have made with the rest of the team, Bucky decided to walk towards the living room, knowing he would find Y/n sitting down watching some of her Netflix series she’s been obsessing with lately, she would stay in the living room watching them until she saw all the lights off and then she’d go to her room to keep watching, not wanting to wake up anyone in the facility with the noises that came from the TV. Even there she was so considerate with everyone else, one of the reasons he was in love with her, because she always cared for everyone else, putting them before her, just how she did with Peter earlier, she really had such a warm beautiful heart, more than her physical appearance, her heart was the most beautiful thing about her.

Y/n was indeed sitting on the couch in the living room, her arms wrapped around her legs as she stared into the screen in front of her, completely unfazed by the outside world because she didn’t hear to his steps approaching. “Hey, Y/n..” he spoke as he walked closer to her, her eyes still fixated on the TV screen.

“Oh, hey Bucky!” she said with a smile, not taking her eyes off the show. It must be a pretty good one, Bucky thought. 

“I just wanted to say that I think you’re really beautiful.. And I'm not only talking about your body or face, but your personality and soul! Don’t get me wrong though, you’ve got a really a gorgeous face and incredible body! Not that I stare at it everyday-well, I kinda do, but that’s not the point!” he was feeling all flustered already, his cheeks even more flushed than they were at noon, like if his face was on fire. “The point is.. that I think about you a lot, you know? You’re always so nice to everyone, always wanting to make sure everyone’s doing okay and letting them know you’re here for them whenever they might need someone, just like today with Peter! And any guy would be so lucky to have you in his life, cause I’ve known you for a while and you’ve brought nothing more than happiness to mine...” a smile slowly crept its way to his lips as he thought about all the times she would make him smile, even in the most desperate situations ever or when times were rough around the facility with the rest of the team, she would always be there for him. 

“I’m sorry, Bucky...” that right there made his heart stop, his face slowly fell as he heard those dreaded words and what might follow them. “What were you saying? It was the last episode of the season, so I was really into it, I didn't quite catch what you were trying to say... I’m sorry...” she said with a apologetic smile on her lips, she paused the show as he stared at him, completely focused on what he had to say now.

Bucky let out a sigh of relief, that almost freaked him out. He wasn't ready for a rejection, he had in mind that it could be a possible response from her but he didn't want to really accept it. He just wanted her to know once and for all..

“Look. What I was trying to say it’s that...” he took deep breaths as she stared at him in confusion, trying to figure out what he was trying to say to her. “I like you. A lot, like a ‘crazy amount’ lot.” he chuckled nervously as he took a deep breath before continuing. “I.. I- think I'm in love with you.” he sincerely confessed to her, sitting down besides her as he took her hands in his, feeling the smoothness of her palms compared to his calloused ones. He heard her suck in a breath, clearly not expecting what he had just told her. “I’ve been trying to bury these feelings because, I was scared of what would happen if I ever told them out loud, scared of what you’d say or do.” he looked at her eyes, there was a small glint in them, a little spark he hadn’t seen before. “I just realized I can’t do that anymore, I can’t keep it to myself cause life is short, and I have this second chance at living it the fullest, and I want to do that with you by my side. If you’d allow it, of course.” he explained, he wasn’t about to force her to do anything she wouldn’t like to do.

“Oh, Bucky. Just shut up and kiss me already.” she answered back with a smile that could lit up the whole city and without any second more to waste, their lips collided. 

It felt like being embraced by the most warm blanket in a cold and snowy day, like their lips were meant to be together. His hands softly wrapped themselves around her waist, pulling her closer as he wanted to feel more of her warmness against his body, the grip on her waist tight, not wanting to let her go anytime soon as their lips played a beautiful ballad against each other, dancing to the oldest song there is.. love. 

“It was beautiful.. all of what you said. It left me speechless..” she confessed, pulling away from his lips for a moment, her warm eyes looking up to his as her hands softly caressed his cheek, giving another ounce of warmth to his face. “What I want you to know it's that.. I feel the same way. I think I’ve always had. You make me feel different than anybody else has ever made me feel. Whenever I'm around you, I'm myself. No filters, just me. I was also afraid.. afraid to damage this friendship we have but I realized I do not want to live my life wondering ‘what if’.” she softly told him, a smile forming on her lips as she stared at him, lovingly. 

He just felt like the luckiest person on earth, he had no exact words to explain how he felt, just that he loved it. He loved feeling like this.

“How about you introduce me to your show, huh? I bet it must be really interesting. That way I can cuddle you all night long, cause I'm not really planning on letting you free anytime soon to be honest.” he gave her a sheepishly smile as she nodded in agreement with him, she didn't want to be away from his arms either, so they accommodated themselves on the couch. 

“Just with one condition..” she said to him.

“What condition?” he asked with a chuckled.

“That you kiss me every time I tell you to.”

“Oh, doll. Believe me, that won’t be a problem.” he smirked as he placed a tenderly kiss on her lips to start.

let’s catch up! I love olympics so much! there aren’t many things that make me feel as proud to be a hungarian as the olympics! I was so dissappointed last year that they postponed it and I couldn’t wait for it this year. my dream is that in my lifetime there will be an olympic held in Hungary! we had a real chance for 2024 with our application but thanks to some people’s protest it was withdrawn, but that’s another story, I still haven’t gotten over it. back to the current olympics... I’m so proud of all our athletes. We already got a few 4th places and it makes me so sad bc it’s always the top 3 that’s a huge deal but a 4th is right there, I mean it’s still pretty cool to be the 4th best in something on the earth, and their dissappointment always makes me so sad. also I kinda prefer bronz to silver, cause in most sports, silver means you lost the last match and you can’t get over that when you get your medal, unlike with bronz where you end with a victory and you had to get over the dissappointment before it, so when you win you can really celebrate that win. also I prefer team sports to individuals so much. even in swimming I much more enjoy the relay swims, as in facing the group competition atc.. ofc I love handball and waterpolo the most. I’m rooting hard for our men & women water polo team as well as our women handball team through their group matches!!! I just love when you compete together with others, when you’re not just there for yourself but for your team, when you have each other to fight for and I love the relationships it can foster. also it’s better when you can share that same victory with others as well as the defeats. also I know there are a lot of athletes at the olympics from hungary and many of them don’t end up in the top 3 or even 10 in their sport but i’m still so proud of them. I see how much they put into it and they don’t owe us anything. just like I heard about some people’s outrage over Naomi Osaka or Simone Biles, the same happened with our best swimmer Hosszú Katinka. she won 3 gold and 1 silver in Rio 2016, but now she ended in 5th and 7th place in 2 of the 3 races where she won gold last time, she withdrew from one and has one still left and people attacked her for it. idk why some people think that the athletes owe them something. they are human, they make mistakes, no human can give 100% all the time, and their health is the most important, both physical and mental. what kind of supporters are those who turn on someone when they don’t win? they still deserv respect. also I always really want everyone of my nation to win, but I know I can’t expect that, also some people don’t have the potiential (at least not yet) to be in the top 3, but they are there at the olympics that has to mean something. all supporters should hope is that their athletes can bring out their best. and whatever place that best is worth, it should be applauded. I think when things don’t go according to plan the athletes are the ones who are the most hurt, the most dissappointed, they don’t need to be attacked. also this is so different from the other olympics bc of the pandemic. on one hand I very much miss the spectators, hungarian fans are very passionate and supportive and their absence is huge even through tv. also the medal ceremony is so weird with the athletes giving themselves the medal and not being allowed to hug with each other etc. it’s also weird that their family can’t be there to support and celebrate with them. i also miss all the royals cheering their nation on and interacting with each other. i can’t wait for 2024 lol. on the other hand it’s interesting that lot of the time i can understand what the coaches say to the them or what the athletes themselves say while competing or what the few people who are able to be there to support are shouting during the cometition and usually this is not the case.

special mentions to our medal winners:

1. szilágyi áron: he won our first medal, gold!!! he defended his title from 2012 and 2016. he is the first to do so in sabre. it’s amazing that he did it 3 times in a row, over a span of 9 years. I was so happy and proud. he is so humble and he always gives others credit, and he also won bronz in team, and he is such a team player always encouraging, appluading and lifting others up. when reporters asked him about his individual medal after the team won bronz, he kept the focus on the team and their succes, and he was fighting just as much for the team as individually. also our guy who won silver in épeé said he has been a wonderful support

2. siklósi gergely: he won our second medal: silver. my heart hurt bc it was a lost last game and that’s dissapointment. but he is very young and this was his first olympics. also he said that he is happy and proud, obviously came for gold but he is satisfied. i was so happy to hear that. i’m so proud of him too

3. milák kristóf: he won gold with an olympic record in 200m butterfly today. he is very talented. when he won he didn’t seem happy lol idk why but I saw memes of it. he too seems to be a good egg cause he shows respect for his opponents and he also comforted hosszú katinka, after her 7th place instead of celebrating.

4. decsi tamás, gémesi csanád, szatmári andrás és szilágyi áron: sabre team won bronz. i’m so so proud. they fought so hard for each other, i love their bromance. i love how they gave each other their medals instead of everyone picking their own. they deserv it so much

5. tóth krisztián: he won bronz in judo (our 3rd medal of the day). he won with golden point. it was a very difficult game. he was so sweet, he was crying aftterwards during the interview. he said thanks to everyone and wished a happy birthday to his dad! he was so happy

all of them have been humble, respectful, eager to share credit with their team, coach, thank their families and spectators for their support even through just a screen. and all the other competitors wheter they won or lost, became first or last, had to give up due to injury or yet to compete: I’m so proud of you.

to be continuoud, there’s still a lot to look forward to

[virtuemoired]

i'm not sure if anyone has asked this already but can you do a top 5 best costumes for scott?

hi anon, i thought you’d never ask! today was a pretty rough day, so hopefully this cheers u up, anything 2 share my thoughts w the class! enjoy :’)

5. umbrellas small town boy: 9.2/10

starting off STRONG bc umbrellas!Scott was truly a sight to behold. in this picture, he is 20 years old, and all i have to say is that they don’t make ice dancers like that anymore. EVERYTHING about this look is *chef’s kiss*, from the collar right down to the carefully sewn chest pockets. scott moir woke up at the crack of DAWN to carefully roll up those sleeves to perfection, and made sure to tuck in his shirt precisely into his cottage boy pants to really sell the program. this is au naturale soft scott, only rivaled by mahler!Scott and latch!Scott WHICH WE WILL GET TO. in my humble opinion, 2008-2010 scott is peak scott, no matter what latch!Scott supremacists might have u believe. it is ONE thing to be a good ice dancer, but it is another to completely EMBODY the character of Guy Foucher and skate ur HEART out to the soundtrack “i will wait for you” over and over to tessa virtue. this costume never missed a beat, and i thank my lucky stars everyday for it.

4. latch: 9.5/10

latch!Scott is just one of those things where you can’t not include it, bc it is so ICONIC. if i’m speaking w 100% honesty, the real star of the show is his hair™️, but bc it is all about the full ~package~ we are gonna include his hair as being part of the costume. u know how v/m always say that they let their skating speak for itself? well i think that scott let his HAIR speak for itself bc when i was coming up w this list, my first thoughts were “latch scott” before i was like wait. what did latch!Scott even WEAR? for the life of me, i couldn’t remember. it was only until i googled that i realised he was wearing a blue costume (pictured). when scott said that his job was to get people to focus on tessa, he was lying bc his hair overshadowed his plans, and ended his own career. he thought he was smart wearing this unassuming blue shirt but we know ur game, moir. ur hair had more flow than dare i say tessa’s latch dress, and that’s the tea on that.

3. mahler: 9.7/10

u must be asking urself, what could possibly top latch? in which case, dear reader, u are in for a TREAT. you see, while latch!Scott had the best hair, mahler was the og soft scott. umbrellas was just the beginning, and i am so glad that mahler!Scott came through with this LEWK. i feel v strongly about the fact that we rarely ever got a chance to see scott in white with black pants, bc i personally love the pure, can-do-no-wrong vibe™️ going for him, right down to the cut at the back of his pants that NO ONE appreciates, but i do, scott moir. i do. 

2. great gig turtleneck: 9.9/10

legend has it that if you look up the definition for perfection, great gig!Scott will show up in the results. if tessa’s green dress was revelatory, black turtleneck scott is quite possibly the GREATEST thing that has EVER happened to ice dance. this is the creation by the hands of FATE, bc if their suitcases hadn’t gotten lost we would’ve NEVER had the honour of appreciating this MASTERPIECE in all its 1080p glory. it was truly divine intervention and if u look at the men’s and ice dance field now, every single skater has tried at least ONCE to accomplish even HALF of what scott did here, but NONE of them have even come CLOSE. not even scott moir HIMSELF could replicate this iconic gem, and today we send our thoughts and prayers to this work of art sculpted by the skating gods to get them on the worlds podium. truth is, turtleneck!Scott is a mirage and quite frankly i ask myself everyday if it really did happen. he would fit in at a patisserie in paris, france and no one would bat an eye. i feel like this picture deserves to be hung in the LOUVRE, so everyone can appreciate this underrated chef-d'œuvre of a costume. look, he even got me speaking in a foreign language, the POWER. don’t even get me STARTED on the hair, bc this is i-just-woke-up-and-oh-my-god-i-have-a-competition-in-5-mins scott moir hair and i am HERE! FOR! IT! he said, screw it, let me show u the greatest serpentine lift and WATCH US get onto the podium w minimal practice and DOMINATE. the BDE of it all. one of the commentators said that they had the cheapest costumes in the entire competition, and while that MAY be true this was the beginning stages of carmen!Scott and for that we should all bow down to it.

1. long time running: 10/10

tessa virtue can claim the colour green, and scott moir could OWN the black long sleeved shirt any day of the week. this was turtleneck!Scott 2.0, and i’ll gladly take what i can get. carmen!Scott walked so this look could run, and i’m so glad their last skate at the olympics was when scott was looking his absolute FINEST™️. the simplicity of it all is just too beautiful for words, but i’ll try anyway. 

this is the person u take home to meet ur parents, the kind of guy that ur grandma wants u to marry, and who all ur other boyfriends will be relentlessly compared to. take long time running!Scott and put him with tessa virtue wearing her stunning red dress, and ladies and gentlemen, you are seeing whatever greets u at the gates of ice dance HEAVEN. i fully believe that angels were sent down to bless us with this look, and scott’s hair here is really just the icing on top of cake.

scott often talks about “showing tessa off” and so everyone pays his costumes DUST, but when the commentators said “they made ice dance a little more classier”, this is EXACTLY what they meant. the whole i put this on as a sign of respect for the last skate of our careers on olympic ice energy really speaks to my SOUL, and as i previously said i am a SUCKER for a can-do-no-wrong vibe™️ so this ticks ALL my boxes. this is like the AU of moulin rouge, and it is the place i would put under the “mentally i am here” meme. i just think it’s so beautiful how, like turtleneck!Scott, we only got to see this finished look ONCE during the olympics, and then never again. but that’s okay, because this look watered my crops, fed my soul, and made me believe in true love again.

let me tell u, it was a journey to get to this look, a long time running if u must, but u know what? HE WAS WELL WORTH THE WAIT *mic drop*

a pen pals au of sorts in which jake and amy share a desk and communicate via post-it notes (last edited: december 2017)

Amy is going to murder her deskmate.

The literal trash heap that greeted her last Monday was one thing, the sticky orange soda stain from last month was another thing, but this – this blatant disregard of property and boundaries and the sanctity of office supplies – is the Last Straw.

Spread out across her entire desk is a good fourth of the Post-it notes from the brand new assorted set she got from her brother Tony. They’re all arranged to look like various Star Wars icons, and a few of them are filled in with marker for apparent color correction. It’s horrifying.

Grumbling, she begins taking apart Post-It Yoda, keeping the salvageable pieces in a stack and throwing out the rest. When she’s cleared her entire table, she grabs her favorite pen and a fresh sheet then writes:

Hi, Please refrain from wasting my Post-its in the future. Thank you. - Det. Amy Santiago

She stares at it for a moment and decides, since this is probably the only passive aggressive note she’s going to write her deskmate, she might as well add:

PS: I would appreciate it if you would leave our desk clean at the end of your weekend shifts.

After checking it over once more, she places it in the center of her desk, ready to be read the following Saturday.

a dianetti cake shop au in which rosa owns and runs a store called arlo’s (last edited: june 2017)

Gina takes a moment to look over some of the cakes on display before clearing her throat and leaning over the counter. “’Scuse me, can you help me get a custom cake order started?”

“Sure.” The baker wipes her hands on a dish towel before grabbing a small notebook and pen from one of her pockets. “What’s the occasion?”

“Some old geezer’s leaving our precinct to enjoy retired life, or something like that.”

“Retirement party? Cool. Tell me about this guy.”

“Oh, sweetie, I don’t know or care about him. I’m just here cause my boss told me to order a cake.”

A smirk forms on the baker’s lips. “Ha. Do you wanna just do a standard cake order then? I usually do the custom cakes for more personalized, special events.”

“That’s probably smart. Which one of your standard cakes say: ‘Congrats on being old and rich enough to never work another day in your life, but sorry you’re almost dead’?”

She snickers. “I don’t know about that first part, but how ‘bout an angel food cake as a ‘hope you go to heaven when you die’ sort of thing?”

Gina grins and fishes through her purse for her wallet. “Oh, you should know my expectations on this cake are out of this world high. I’m only here because Yelp told me you’re the Beyonce of baking.” (Actually, she’s here because at least three reviews claimed the baker-slash-owner was “terrifying” and “gorgeous.” – They were right, on both accounts.)

a sequel to i could listen to you all day // the “after ever after” story in which jake and amy navigate their first year together as soulmates (last edited: march 2017)

Jake’s phone buzzed on his desk, breaking him out of his happy daydream. He picked it up and opened a new message from Gina.

“god, quit making heart eyes at the new girl!! your conscience would be v disappointed, kiddo.”

Gina, who had been watching him like a hawk from her desk, expected him to get all flustered and to text or yell back something overly defensive. She raised a single eyebrow when his face instead broke into a goofy grin and he straight up giggled.

Across from him, Amy looked up from her case files. “What’s so funny?”

He shook his head and mumbled something about memes and the internet.

She rolled her eyes, but the corners of her lips curled up into a smile. After he redirected his attention to his computer screen, her expression morphed into the same openly adoring look he had on his face the entire morning.

And then it all clicked.

If Gina had stopped to think about it, she would have recognized the new disappointment she felt in both herself (for taking this long to put two and two together) and her childhood best friend (for not keeping her in the loop). As she had not stopped to process anything, she instead yelled across the bullpen: “OH MY GOD. JAKE AND AMY ARE SOULMATES!”

All work stopped, and everyone fell silent. For a good minute, all that could be heard was the faint snoring from Captain McGintley’s office.

“Gina,” Rosa half-snarled, half-whispered. “You can’t just say that.”

“Oops, my b. Y’all know I have no conscience now so…” She giggled, winked at the leather-clad detective, and went back to her game of Kwazy Cupcakes.

Jake let out an awkward laugh. “Well, uh, that was -”

Out of nowhere, Charles appeared right in front of their desks. “Is it true, Jakey? Was Amy the voice in your head all this time?”

“I -” He glanced at Amy for help.

She bit her lip and shrugged.

This wasn’t at all how he envisioned making the announcement, but there was no use denying it. Still looking straight at her, his face softened into a smile. “Yeah… We’re soulmates.”

Charles squealed loudly. “You said the S word! Does that mean it’s official?” He gasped. “Have you said ‘I love you’? Have you met each other’s parents? When’s the wedding? What are you naming your first child?”

pretty much a crack fic inspired by the media’s post-olympics obsession with tessa and scott // my spin on a vm au bc i still refuse to write jake and amy as ice dancers (last edited: may 2018)

Like many of the other bizarre situations he’s found himself in, this all started with Gina. Over the last year or so, she’d been posting random photos and videos of all of them at the precinct. (“I’m devoting my energy to my new project, Ginazon,” she’d declared to the entire bullpen. “It’s a one-stop online portal for my legions of followers. I’m just giving the people what they want!”) Given that this was Gina of all people, Jake wasn’t at all surprised to find out that each post garnered hundreds of likes, but he’d never bothered to venture into the comments section. He’d never known about the apparent niche following that had formed, the group of fans – for lack of a better word – waiting with bated breath for him and Amy to get together.

Charles had only spurred them on, what with all the various Easter eggs on his culinary blog. (“This place has everything,” he’d written once. “My co-workers Jake and Amy even gave it their stamp of approval after they’d shared a quick lunch there before a long stakeout. Make sure to ask for the winter salsa; it’s wonderful!”) He’d sworn that none of it was intentional and that he would never do anything to sell them out, but everything he’d written had still been catalogued and analyzed by the pseudo-experts of the fandom. At this point, Jake’s main regret is not reading Charles’ weekly email blasts.

Their downfall – or rise to viral glory – came when someone from the so-called G-Hive happened to be in just the right place at just the right time, catching their (second) completely-platonic, spur-of-the-moment, done-in-the-name-of-justice kiss on camera. By the next morning, “Undercover Cops Lock Lips Before Locking Up Wanted Criminal” had been viewed on YouTube over a million times.

With everything about the entire situation already being so weird, they’d decided to just ignore their newfound fame in the same way they’d pretended the kisses never happened. (“We’re a great team. We work great together. Nothing should mess that up,” he’d said, repeating nearly his exact words from the night before.)

Evidently, there was no escaping this though. A formal press conference was set up, which wasn’t too out of the ordinary for cases that caught the general public’s attention, except they’d ended up having to say more about their dating lives than the investigation or arrest. He can still feel his heart lurching in his chest at the first relationship-related question, still hear Amy loudly stammering out some vague answer about being “very professional.”

a smutty soulmate au in which jake and amy unknowingly share dreams every now and then (last edited: november 2017)

At this moment in time, Amy Santiago is undeniably, incomparably, drop dead gorgeous.

More specifically: she’s in the hot red dress Kylie convinced her to buy on their last post-trivia night celebratory shopping spree; she’s wearing a matching killer shade of lipstick picked out by her fashion-forward, shockingly sexual 13-year-old niece; and she’s got her hair swept into that one elegant yet fun side ponytail that caught her eye in a magazine a few weeks back.

Normally, she’d be proud of herself for managing to pull off such a look, except–

It’s been a good several hours since she tossed her dress into the hamper, wiped the makeup off her face, and tugged the elastic tie from her hair. She’d buried her head into her pillow and wheeze-cried herself to sleep shortly after changing into her pajamas, so overwhelmed with shame and disappointment over the night’s party-gone-wrong.

The thick haze shrouding her current surroundings tells her she’s in another one of her soulmate’s dreams, which helps a tiny bit in explaining her current appearance but really opens up more questions than answers.

[annathesimple]

Tidbits from the 1st semi-final of Vidbir (cause an actual summary from me would suck)

Even the beginning was rad, just listen how Andriy Danilko was announced, “His commentary is already as honest as it gets, but last year he outshined himself, a person who can tell you to go (fuck yourself) and don’t notice it - Andriy Danilko”

--- Host going like, “omg, Danilko, you have a different shirt today, will the same happen to your hat one day??”

---one time I actually agreed with our host was about organizators’ motto being “not a single Vidbir without Melovin” and hey, who can blame them?

--H: ¨and while at the other side of the screen Melovinators are losing their voices due to screaming, and someone at the backstage is being revived, I want to say that he was asked to participate as a guest, not as a participant¨ - bold of u to assume it will stop all the screaming

- Andriy Myhaylovych (Danilko), do you know that you are a human meme?   - Yeah, I am aware. Probably that’s just my destiny.

--Showcasing stickers with Danilko’s last year’s quotes, aka quality content

-- How would you describe our place in last years esc with one word? - Proper. (yeeee, mama Danilko being proud of his son)

--- said that after Mel was picked the administration of STB channel (that wasn’t really sure about him in fact) called him (Danilko) and said that he was right (about Mel)

--- “Hey!” by The Hypnotunez was a good fucking song, I will defend it with my own fists and swinging long hair, i mean, come on, they are singing ”why don’t you do like the bad girls do” while showing a funky running dinosaur on a screen, come onnnn. --- Letay finally showing Prityla his place by fighting back, my God, thank you so much! 

Well, that’s how it went: Letay performed, and in the end of his song he grabs a handfulll of baloons and flies above the stage

well

later Pritula was making a fun joke (tm): reminded me of 80's summer Olympics, I even wanted to sing "goodbye, Mishka, goodbye"

and Letay went like: tbh, i have missed out on those games, i am not that old

--- ohhhh, Danilko liked it ↑ a lot.

--- Just so You know “ЦеШо“ translates as “What’s that?” and I love them too. ---Another sweet thing? Danilko being all supportive of  “ЦеШо“ and saying “I really love the crazy ones”

--Host called “ЦеШо“ minions cause of their yellow outfits and they responded by making minion sounds every time he turned his back to them, to the point that it was freaking him out. Hell yeah!

---YUKO has brought elecrofolk and was just like: ~hell yeah~

--- Maruv:  “My fans were like, “maybe-maybe you will participate in Eurovision?? so i had to tense my ass and write another song.”

---Also, for the ones who was kinda disturbed by Maruv’s performance: they themselves describe it as an “intelligent provocation and a kind of trolling”

---Host: in 2016 you said “all that i wanted to take from this contest - i have”. --Maruv: thank you, I remember

--- Host: I think it would be fair to give the first word to a person that you (Maruv) tried your best for - Jamala” (*•̀ᴗ•́*)و ̑̑

--- Danilko had problems with his radio set but instead said “wait, I am having troubles with my radiation”

---Host while announcing Brunettes Shoots Blondes, ”the guys that have spent 3 years making a stuffed piano” (btw, that piano is from XIXth century, don’t mess with it)

---honestly, the Frankenstein piano should get its own name and be listed as another member of the band

--- That legendary moment with Danilko and G-spot talk that i just must translate later ٩( ᐛ )و

--- “Oh, we got a translator from Danilko-language?” no, Prytula (the last name of the host), everybody understands him, you are just being mean.

--Danilko literally going ‘“God, let him stay quiet” about Prytula. Also “Jamala - go tell him”.  Yeah, Go tell him!! ೕ(•̀ᴗ•́)

--Melovin talking a bit about himself (God, I need to translate it as well, don’t I?)

--Host trying to provoke Mel with his “how do u feel about your 17th place?” and Mel being like: what 17th? I got 7th, cause public vote is more important to me; judges won’t come to my concerts, people will.

--Host to Danilko, ”Once one famous sportsman said: if you are the 1st one - everybody remembers you, if you are 2nd - nobody remembers you. Melovin got 17th place. What is this result to you?” -- I will tell you - your sportsman is stupid, because everybody knows the 2nd one”

--”I will tell you - I was very proud of Melovin’s performance, Because that atmosphere of negativity that was aimed at him at the national selection.., and it’s not really cause of the jury, let’s say it was cause of some other people if to put it gently, and I did say it very gently. I was.. you know, I was calm watching the performance; before, during the day, I have sent him a text message. Have you got it, btw? - (Mel) A huge thank you for everything! - Then why haven’t you replied?? *Mel starts laughing* --I am joking, joking, he did reply. I was sitting and was so content with you being confident, you being calm, everything went smoothly. What place? Guys, every time, on every national selection I am trying to tell everybody - that doesn’t matter at all. What matters is the quality of your country’s performance. And it was very high quality, it was proper, it wasn’t like any other year. Good job! --”He was the first one to write to me after the performance. I adore you!”

[jcylenz]

....ALL OF THE “IM NOT FROM THE US” QUESTIONS (or alternatively 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 but i’ll come back for more mwhahshs)

1. favourite place in your country?

Balaton without a doubt. It’s the biggest lake of the country and it has such an amazing atmosphere and feel to it, I really love spending my time there. I usually go at least once, if not more times a year and definitely spend some vacation time there, plus my grandma is from a city next to the lake, so really just many ties there.

2. do you prefer spending your holidays in your country or travel abroad?

I love both? I love going abroad and exploring different cultures and seeing the world (I say that as if I’ve been to so many places when I really wasn’t), but there are also so many beautiful places in Hungary so ya know, both. Gimme both.

3. does your country have access to sea?

Nope, but it used to. We were just chopped up and lost 2/3 of our country after the two world wars.

4. favourite dish specific for your country?

Uhhh, SO MANY. Honestly I love Hungarian cousine so fucking much. Gotta love lecsó and pörkölt and Hortobagyer meat pancakes and Gulash and all the Hungarian food, please don’t make me choose.

5. favourite song in your native language?

Tábortűz by Emberek, and you’re just in luck cause there is a youtube video in which you can read the English translation.

6. most hated song in your native language?

I can’t think of any right now most because I just make myself forget about all the stupid songs my country creates.

7. three words from your native language that you like the most?

Szeretlek, which means I love you. Cipőfűzővégcédőpöcök, which is that protecting thingy at the end of shoelaces. And megszentségteleníthetetlrnségeskedéseitekért, which is this.

8. do you get confused with other nationalities? if so, which ones and by whom?

I don’t think as a nation we get confused with others, we have a pretty unique culture and people, but I do know that a lot of people confuse Budapest and Bucharest, if that counts here.

9. which of your neighbouring countries would you like to visit most/know best?

10. most enjoyable swear word in your native language?

“Menj a picsába!“ Which is mostly the same as “Go to hell!” but in the Hungarian version, if you wanna translate it word for word, it reads “Go to the pussy!“ which makes no sense whatsoever in English but it does make sense in Hungarian s2g.

11. favourite native writer/poet?

Géza Gárdonyi, who wrote, among others things, wrote the book called Eclipse of the Crescent Moon. It’s my favorite Hungarian book without a doubt, favorite classic as well most likely. It tells the story of a siege of a Hungarian castle in Eger in 1552. The siege was a really big thing in Hungarian history and the book tells the story of some of its most famous figures, how they grew up, how they actually got to the castle and how the siege went down, and now I really just wanna reread the entire thing all over again.

12. what do you think about English translations of your favourite native prose/poem?

Never really read any of them, so I don’t have opinions.

13. does your country (or family) have any specific superstitions or traditions that might seem strange to outsiders?

Hmmmm. Probably the strangest is that for us, Santa Clause comes on December 6th and then Jesus Christ brings the Christmas presents on Christmas Eve, not Christmas Day.

We also have a tradition on Eastern Monday where the guys go around the houses to “sprinkle” the girls so they wouldn’t “wither like flowers”, which means you either get buckets of water poured all over you or you they pour a bunch of badly smelling parfumes (like REEEEEALLY BAD ONES) onto your hair and it’s such bullshit and I hate that day with a pure passion.

14. do you enjoy your country’s cinema and/or TV?

Lately I’ve been enjoying it more and more. There was a good 15-20 years period when literally nothing was done that was good or even acceptable but now more and more good movies are made and now we have some good tv shows too which is nice. I still mostly watch foreign stuff though.

15. a saying, joke, or hermetic meme that only people from your country will get?

Uhh, can I pass this? I really can’t think of anything.

16. which stereotype about your country you hate the most and which one you somewhat agree with?

I actually had to look up what kind of stereotypes there are about Hungary, but I really didn’t like the one that kept popping up about Hungarian girls being easy. Fuck that shit, that is really really stupid. The one that I agree with is about our food - that we use a lot of fat and paprika in our food. 100% true. Most of our traditional dishes include both of them and a lot of it but not in a bad way? Like ok I get that probably most people would find them too much, but I do believe if they give it a try, they will realize that it’s actually really good and tasty and you can’t actually taste the fat or anything, it just makes it better. People also say because of our dish types that we eat like kings and I am happy to accept thatxD (it’s most said cause we eat a lot of meat, we have fish soup, different meat soups, we eat stuff like stuffed cabage, stuff that used to be at big feasts)

17. are you interested in your country’s history?

YESSS. I love our history, I think it’s incredibly interesting, incredibly rich and full of amazing stuff. Hungary is over 1000 years old, so many things happened during that time - we had our highs, we had our lows, but we always came out on top and survived in the end and I think that is amazing and something to be proud of.

18. do you speak with a dialect of your native language?

I mean, I am not sure? I don’t think so, but I might be wrong. I mean, there are stuff people say differently on other sides of the country, but it’s not that much distinct. It’s more noticable when it comes to those Hungarians who unfortunately don’t live in Hungary anymore (those who live in the neighbor countries because after the ww 2/3 of our country was taken from us)

19. do you like your country’s flag and/or emblem? what about the national anthem?

I love our flag, though then again it might just be that that is what I know. But it’s nice. I am not too happy about the anthem, it’s too depressing to me.

20. which sport is The Sport in your country?

Football (and by football I mean soccer football) which is a shame cause we suck at it. Like, we won 3 olympic gold medals in a row in waterpolo, but ya know, fuck logic. And I could list so many other sports our country is really good at, but people go nuts about football, so what can you do. (And I am not saying I don’t like the sport, I always watch the world cup, but it’s sad to see the country putting so much money into something we are shit in, putting the players up on a pedestal and forgetting about those who actually get really nice and amazing results.)

21. if you could send two things from your country into space, what would they be?

Uhhhhhhhhh. Paprika and a picture of the Balaton.

22. what makes you proud about your country? what makes you ashamed?

I am generally really proud of our history, that despite whatever shit we were put through, we are still standing, after 1100+ years of being here. And I am ashamed of the general homophobia and fatphobia and racism and the way most people handle this topic aside from the youth. We are really behind on this. Also the fact that we actually have a movie that is called “Coming Out” and it’s about the most stereotypical gay man you’ve ever seen getting hit by a motorbike and suddenly turning straight and him coming out as straight cause legit that is the dumbest and most horrible thing I’ve seen on tv and I want to set everyone who worked on it on flames.

23. which alcoholic beverage is the favoured one in your country?

Beer and wine is pretty popular, plus pálinka, which a Hungarian specific really high % level alcoholic beverage (like 45%-60% even) that we drink in shots.

24. what other nation is joked about most often in your country?

Uhhh, probably Chineese people? It’s really bad, really just the usual racist stereotypical stuff and I hate it.

25. would you like to come from another place, be born in another country?

I think every country has its problems and I am glad I was born here because of the places and the language itself - it’s so fucking beautiful and amazing and lyrical. Would I wanna live here for the rest of my life, though? Nope, definitely not.

26. does your nationality get portrayed in Hollywood/American media? what do you think about the portrayal?

Not really. I specifically remember a Gilmore Girl episode where Michel spoke some stupid Hungarian shit, but other than that… most of the time they call our food shit and make fun of us. Which is really not cool and I hate that so much. (B99 did an episode once where Charles was praising a Hungarian restaurant with a sausage platter and I was SO EXCITED but then Jake called it shit and I knew immediately that most people will believe Jake cause they played on Charles’ weird taste and that everyone will think it’s just one of Charles’ ticks again and it made me so sad srsly. STOP TELLING PEOPLE OUR FOOD IS SHIT, IT’S NOT TRUE)

27. favourite national celebrity?

pass

28. does your country have a lot of lakes, mountains, rivers? do you have favourites?

We have a couple of lakes, two pretty big river and like REALLY SMALL mountains. Most of them I would more likely call them bigger hills instead of mountains tbh. But the biggest geographical thing is definitely the Balaton, which is a big ass lake that most people go to during the summer. It’s also the biggest lake of Eastern Europe which is nice. I love that place, that is definitely my favorite.

29. does your region/city have a beef with another place in your country?

Uhhh, the uni in my city has a beef with the uni I went to cause they used to be under the uni I went to and then they seperated from them and there is some weird who was right stuff going on but other than that not really.

30. do you have people of different nationalities in your family?

Nope.

The Sarina Project

Ok so I gotta put a little A/N at the start of this one beacuse I realized I have to make a litttttllllleee change to this story. Soz. Annyywaaayyyy... I’ve decided to change the POV from first person to third person, which I know is probably SUPER annoying for you but I promise this chapter would work better if it was not just from Karina’s POV. So I hope y’all are ready for some ~e p i c~ punk!Sarah thoughts ^-^

The Sarina Project

Chapter 18: I Hate My Freinds

“Are you sure your ready to do this?” Emily viciously inquired of DJ, who just happened to be sitting next to her. (A/N: Remember, Karina is NOT narrating this she is NOT HERE hehe ^-^)

“Are you kidding??? I’m literally James Bond,” DJ said, popping the p. “I’ve snuck into like 15 classrooms already this year.”

“OMG ME TOO!” Emily said back in response to DJ.

“Ya exactly we snuck into those classrooms together,” DJ unimpressedly said. They both laughed at Emily’s forgetfulness.

“Haha,” she laughed, giggling.

“Ok lets go,” DJ said, immediately jumping into a James Bond somersault and kicking the door to the classroom. Emily crept in behind him, her greenish, hazelish, slightly brown speckled balls of sight gazing over the cold, lifeless, OPPRESSIVE, torture seats... aka... DESKS. (A/N: hahahahhahaha I hate school sum1 halp plz 😭😂)

“There’s no one in here,” Emily said after about ten minutes observations.

“Wow it’s not like I can see the exact same classroom,” DJ sarcastically quipped back at her in such a tone that only DJ could recreate.

“Just get to the desk,” Emily said, deciding to suddenly use her gymnastics skills to backflip across the room and onto the teacher’s desk.

“Wow I, definitely good enough for the olympics if I can do that,” Emily said, obviously very very proud of her recent accomplishments. Ever since she was two days and fifteen hours and 32 minutes old, she had wanted to be an Olympic gymnast. Gymnastics was her LAIFE!! (A/N: Chipotle is laiiifffeee heh XD). DJ rolled his brown orbs he used for seeing almost every day back into his head at Emily’s showyoffiness and walked over to the same teachers desk Emily was standing on.

“I saw Mrs. Bersbedasukeon put the paper with our group project partners on the third drawer from the bottom on the right said,” DJ told Emily, DABBING and pointing toward the correct drawer. Emily pulled open the drawer and grabbed the single piece of paper sitting on there. A piece of paper that could change the life of ALL THE NAMES ON IT. This paper would be the most sacred thing Emily would touch in a long time.

“This piece of paper is so precious,” Emily hugged the paper to her chest while violently popping her p’s.

“Just switch the names!!!!,!!!!!!!” DJ annoyingly said, banging on the desk to gain Emily’s attention back. Emily nodded and started whiting out a few names on the paper with... WHITE OUT; which she had conveniently stashed in her coat pocket and had just pulled out for this specific reason.

(A/N: okiiii idk how to describe this next part because it always plays like a movie in my head... if that makes sense... IDK. But anyway I’m gonna write this next part like a script so it’s easier for y’all to understand. Remember dailysarina cares about her followers!!! ;))

Emily: *quickly runs white out over a few ^convenient^ names*

DJ: *rewrites the new group partners aS THEY SHOULD BE*

“Good. That’s good,” Emily said as DJ forged the teachers’ handwriting. Then the super sneaky spy duo (A/N: “Nice use of alliteration” -Mr. Scoggins, my English teacher haha jk I would DIE if he read this lol xD) left the classroom until the next day.

THE NEXT DAY............,,....

I enter through the doorway to my art class, brushing my newly dyed pink hair out of my eyes and adjusting my lilac colored flower crown. ‘I wonder if Sarah will notice my hair?’ I wonder. Wait. WHY DID I THINK THAT?? Ugh this is so annoying. Sarah is literally the scariest person I’ve ever seen and yet I am CONSTANTLY worried about what she thinks of me. What is up with that?? It probably just because I’m a weird person, and that’s what weird people do. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

“Ew your hair looks like a fairy threw up on it,” Sarah quipped at me the second I walked in the room, without even making eye contact. What the heck?!??,.! Why is she so MEAN? “You also look like that girl from LazyTown.” OH THAT’S IT.

“Yeah, well... you look like Susie from DELTARUNE!” I screamed back at her, crossing my arms in satisfaction. I can’t believe I actually stood up to her! She didn’t get mad and punch me in the face like I thought she would. She didn’t even yell another insult back at me. She just smiled a bit, and went back to drawing a skull and cross bones on her ripped jeans with eyeliner. I skip over to a giggling Emily and DJ, who were sitting at the table next to Sarah, and sit down, fluffing the skirt of my light pinkish salmon dress as I sit.

“What are you laughing about?” I say to my freinds, who seem to be cackling about something I don’t know about. Are they laughing at me?? I wouldn’t be surprised if they were, considering all my old friends at my old school started bullying me for being weird. UGH! WHy is being weird so hard in high school??

“Nooooiittththhhhhiiiiinnnnnnngggggggg............” the blonde haired girl and the brown eyed boy said in complete unison. Ok, that was creepy, I’m just going to ignore that.

“I will now read out the partners I’ve assigned for this art project y’all will be working on,” our teacher, Mrs. Bersbedasukeon yelled at us. I really hope I get a good partner that doesn’t make fun of my pink hair. And I rreeeeaaallllly hope I don’t get Sarah. ANYONE BUT SARAH.

“The first pair will be Karina and Sarah.”

...

...

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

“Ummm, can I please- but I am cut off by the rudest teacher to ever exist. She just goes on giving out partners like I don’t have a problem with mine. HOW RUDE IS THAT

“Ugghhhhhhh now our project is gonna be covered in rainbows and glitter and pink flowers, gross.” Sarah said, banding her head on the table. I feel like I’m about to cRY. THIS IS GONNA BE H O R R I B L E. why does all the horrible stuff always have to happen to me? My life sucks,

“Well have fun with you Project, you guys,” Emily quips sarcastically, popping the p, but I did NOT think it was funny. She gets to work with DJ, and that’s NOT FAIR. why can’t THEY work with Sarah???” At least they sort of l i k e her.

This is probably all their fault.

I hate them sooooooo much. :( 😭

...

WHOOOAAAAAAAA CLIFFHANGERRRRRRRR!!! xD. Soz that this chapter was a little confusing but a lot of stuff that needed to happen so the story can finally pick up (I can’t believe I’ve written 18 chapters!!!) I honestly think this is the best thing I’ve ever written, but REMEMBER. I have NEVER written anything before this is my FIRST time trying fanfic and I really don’t want anyone to judge me. Don’t be r00d LOLOLOLOL.

On a different note........ my mom is FINALLY taking our family to Chicago and I’m literally going to be spending all week hunting for my two favorite people EEEEEEEEEE. I’m hoping to see them at least 7 times, maybe more? I mean I know what kind of places they like to eat at and where they hang out with people (don’t ask me how I know I’ll never tell hehehehe) so it shouldn’t be too hard to find them. By the end of the week they’re gonna LOVE ME! xD xD Anywayyyyy because of that I probably won’t be writing another chapter next week, but I will still be posting d a n k memes about our children! Dailysarina is signing off now hehe. Peace!!! ✌️

Virtue and Moir's post-Olympic party still going strong

Eight years ago, Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir's first Olympic gold medal was celebrated with a parade through Ilderton.

This time, the ice dance stars are flipping the script.

“It’s our turn to say thank you to everyone,” Virtue said this week from Halifax, where the cross-Canada Stars on Ice tour launches Friday.

The skaters are going to throw a bash for fans. The early target is the August long weekend in Ilderton, by the arena, right near the Moir clan’s backyard.

“Alma and Joe’s house, it’s a pretty good green room for a party,” Scott said, referring to his parents’ place. “I want to get some good people in there, some bands, and we want to give back and raise some money for charity. We’ve been so blessed. The London and Ilderton community has always given us such great support.”

They have been in demand these past two months since their PyeongChang return. Their winning appeal — and the fascination over their relationship status — landed them on Ellen’s talk show, giving the Canadians some well-earned publicity in the massive, yet hard-to-crack, American market.

“It was a lot of fun. There was so much energy, and we can always frame that in the context of what it means to the sport,” the 29-year-old Virtue said. “It’s good for ice dance and figure skating any time we have the chance to broaden that audience. We’re thrilled to do that. By no means was that ever a goal of ours. We just wanted to win the Olympics. The added benefits of whatever happened afterward, that’s just icing on the cake.”

Lately, the questions naturally have turned toward their future. What’s next?

Virtue is becoming a budding businessperson. She is the face of Nivea’s skin care line in Canada and has a keen eye for endorsement opportunities. When she’s not taking over TV networks for a day, she’s on the cover of another magazine.

She works hard to build strong relationships with companies and media partners.

Moir, who comes from a highly-regarded family of figure skating coaches, is helping out at the Ilderton club. It wouldn’t be surprising to see him eventually reach Brian Orser-like status, overseeing some of the best skaters in the world.

“I think the neat thing about our partnership is we’re so connected in what we do and the majority of our career has been intertwined,” Virtue said. “That’s been so incredibly special and we’ve talked at length about what that means to us. We’re also such different people pursuing such different things off the ice and it’s been nice to dive into various business opportunities while watching Scott passionately delve into the sport and setting up a competitive school. I’m so proud of him, much the same way I get support from him.”

“We still have that touchstone together always with skating. That will and always be the No. 1 priority.”

The tour — which arrives in London Sunday, May 6 — is booming. Ticket sale are “pretty insane”, according to Moir, and they’re preparing to perform in front of packed houses.

The skater, who famously skipped mandatory practice for the Olympic closing gala, couldn’t wait to start working on their show programs (which include Michael Jackson’s You Rock My World and, of course, the full four-minute Moulin Rouge free dance that clinched gold in South Korea).

“I was excited to come on tour. I never felt that way my whole career, and I love to skate,” the 30-year-old  Moir said. “It usually kicks in a couple of days later, once you get rolling, but something stirred with us. It’s the cast we have here. There’s a great energy, and we’re seeing the impact of what the Canadian team accomplished in February. Back home, the numbers at the club are good. We have six dance teams and I’m proud to say we have eight boys skating at Ilderton.”

“I want to help them. I miss home when I’m gone. I miss being a contributing member of my family. That’s important to me. I do have a ton of projects, but I want to be involved in the lives of my nieces and nephews. I need to get back to that a little bit.”

He plans to visit schools, inspire young people and become a mentor, on and off the ice.

“I’ll focus on that the next couple of years, while I can, before people forget my name,” he said. “We’ve been lucky to be successful and have a bit of a platform. I think it’s my job and our duty to make sure we’re good role models, talk to kids and help them shape their lives through sport and extracurricular activities.”

“To me, that’s what being Canadian is all about.”

It’s not about the Internet meme that followed Moir since Games end of him standing up at the women’s gold medal hockey game, beer in hand and complaining to the referees.

“If there’s one athlete that doesn’t want that viral attention, it’s Scott,” Virtue said with a laugh.

Moir remembered talking to Olympic skeleton champ Jon Montgomery, still famous for chugging from a pitcher of beer on the streets of Whistler after his victory in 2010.

“He couldn’t shake that,” Moir said. “His corporate relationships, they just saw him as a beer-drinking party animal when that’s not really Jon at all. He’s a great athlete and person. I like to have a beer, but I also have to be mindful of what 13-year-olds see when they watch the Olympics. I want them to see sport moments. I try to stay away from that other stuff and I have Molson Canadian sending me fridges.”

“I don’t need to be on TV reacting to every single event. After that game, I did kind of shut it down. At the curling game, I was sitting between my parents being very well-behaved.”

Virtue and Moir were an important part of Canada’s Olympic viewing experience. It felt like they were on TV continuously, from the CBC documentary and commercials they did as lead-in, to carrying the flag at the opening ceremonies, through their performances and right until the end.

“Starting the Games by carrying the flag, that was an Olympic moment by itself right on par with competing,” Virtue said. “And then you go right through to the exhibition gala on the closing day.”

“We got a lot of Olympic time, which is awesome.”

They don’t get enough credit for their leadership in bringing together the Canadian figure skating team to deliver that first team gold — the one that made Patrick Chan an Olympic champ.

“I didn’t necessarily take that lead in Sochi (2014) and I regretted it,” Moir said. “After that Olympics, I talked with Meagan (Duhamel) and Eric (Radford, the pairs skaters who retired from competition Wednesday) and they were in the same boat. We felt we weren’t aggressive enough in our approach to the team event.”

“This time, we were. We talked about it a lot, sent emails. I’m pretty outspoken and maybe the guy branded as the captain because of it, but it was a complete team effort. Meagan drove the gold-or-nothing train. Because of Stars on Ice, we’ve travelled and lived together, grew up together and that was a special team feeling no other country had.”

“We relied on building each other up instead of cutting each other down, and we never let up.”

It turned into an old-fashioned blowout. By the time Virtue and Moir got on the bus to go perform their free dance, they found out the Canadians already had clinched gold.

“That was a different feeling,” Moir said. “Here you are, nervous and getting ready, and you look at your phone and find out you’re Olympic champion.”

But there was still extra motivation.

“For me, with all the Russian doping allegations, I wanted to crush them,” Moir said. “I didn’t want the Russian team to be able to say, ‘Well, oh, one of our pairs teams wasn’t here, so we lost (a nail-biter)’. We wanted to say back to them, ‘Yeah, are they going to skate seven times, because we beat you by eight points.’

“That whole event reminded us of how great Canada is. We do sport for the right reason. That win-at-all-cost mentality really brings us down. It was a tough year for amateur sport that way and we needed that at those Games.”

“I’m very passionate about that because that’s something we have to protect, clean sport.”

When controversy overtakes the Games, it ruins the stories the athletes want to tell. Virtue and Moir were able to make theirs shine through on their biggest stage.

“Tessa was really mindful of that,” Moir said. “She had that vision. It didn’t feel forced. Maybe when you’re younger, you’re playing the Olympian card, trying to prove yourself and it feels like you have four minutes on the ice to prove it.”

“We didn’t feel like we had to do that this time. We just knew that here it is, this is Tessa and Scott, we love what we do, we love each other and it’s a really authentic story.”

“People grabbed onto it and that has been fun for us.”

The partnership — and party planning — rolls on.

✧ﾟHaikyuu!! Tag Meme ✧ﾟ

TAGGED BY: So I was tagged in this by my bae @greendoodle​ like...almost a year ago, I think?? And (being the person that I am.. = v =;;) I totally forgot about it until the lovely @sarukui​ tagged me in hers!! So I’m picking this back up again and finally finishing it~!! (I’m sorry it took so long, Cookie... TT v TT )

Rules: 
- All your answers should have only ONE character, unless stated otherwise. (i understand that it’ll be hard since all the Haikyuu characters are all so lovable but pls, pick only ONE otherwise there wouldn’t be any point to this game!)  - If you want to elaborate your answer as to why you picked something, go ahead! there is an implied why in all the questions.  - Tag at least 10 other people. (share the Haikyuu love ♥‿  ♥)  - If you get tagged, pls copy the rules as well. - And enjoy! (★^O^★) the whole point of this tag game is to have fun~

What position would you like to play in Volleyball?

I’m hoping there’s an implied “if you were good at playing sports” in there because I absolutely suck at all physical activities. XDD But if I could be good at volleyball, I think I would like to be a libero?? ( * v * ) Defensive positions appeal to me more than offense, I like the idea of supporting everyone from behind~ (And when it comes to height, I am on the short side, so I don’t imagine I’m suited to be a blocker, haha~)

Pick any FOUR Haikyuu characters to form your friend squad with.

Tokyo squad: Bokuto, Kuroo, Akaashi, Kenma!! ( > w < ) ♡ I legitimately want to hang out with these four so badly~

Your roommate in college?

This may seem random but.. that super chill Fukurodani manager?? I just looked it up, her name is Shirofuku Yukie! Idk, she just seems really cool and relaxed, but also not super outgoing, so I feel like maybe we’d get along well as roommates~!!

Haikyuu Crush?


It’s funny because as much as I am attracted to and love these characters, I don’t actually see any of them are romantic interests for me (if that makes sense). BUT if I had to pick one, I think I’d actually date THE HECK out of Tanaka (provided, of course, that he was my age). I feel like he’s super underrated, like sure he’s loud and obnoxious, bUT YOU’RE LYING IF YOU SAY THAT THE GUY WOULDN’T MAKE AN AMAZING BOYFRIEND.

Which character resembles you, in terms of personality, the most?

This question is interesting to me because I don’t think there’s any one character in HQ!! that is a lot like me.. But if I had to choose, I’d go with Kozume Kenma. I feel like that boy is my spirit animal, he’s very self-conscious and aware of the people around him, which leads to a lot of internal analysis, something I do A LOT. We both lack motivation, can spend hours on our electronic devices, and have a dislike for activities that require too much effort, but can perform well when determined. We also both love apple pie. I do feel that I’m pretty different to Kenma in how I express myself and outwardly relate to other people, but overall, he’s definitely the character I relate to the most.

Which character inspires you the most?

Ennoshita Chikara. I relate to the guy A LOT because if something is too stressful or requires too much energy from me, my first response is just to quit. I really love how Ennoshita isn’t quite like a lot of the other characters, he doesn’t have (initially) that drive to just give up EVERYTHING for volleyball, nor does he possess any amazing skills or abilities that make him stand out on the court. But in spite of this, he doesn’t give up, he keeps playing and working hard at volleyball, eventually gaining the trust and respect of his teammates, and I really admire that about him.

Favorite character development?

FRICKING TSUKISHIMA KEI. OH MY FRICK. I’ll tell you, I did not like Tsukki when he was first introduced, he seemed to me to be irritating, aloof, a little stuck-up, and needlessly unkind. But oh my gOSH, the way this series has slowly revealed more and more about his background and true nature has been absolutely brilliant. Watching Tsukki go from an uninvested club member who didn’t see anything special in himself, didn’t understand what it meant to love volleyball, and didn’t feel the need to put a lot of time and energy into it... to a team player who is more aware of his strengths and what he can do for the team, understands the thrill of the game, and is willing to give his all for it... has been one of the most SATISFYING journeys any series has ever taken me on. Tsukishima is one of my absolute favorite characters now, GOSH, he is s o  g o o d .

Prettiest Character?

A K A A S H I FRICKING K E I J I. I mean, fRICK, have you SEEN him???

Hottest?

Bokuto Koutarou is supremely handsome, and I will fight ALL of you on this.

Ultimate OTP?

♡  B O K U A K A  ♡  O H  ♡  M Y  ♡  H E C K  ♡ (If you follow my blog for my art and don’t know this, then I must be doing something wrong.)

Ultimate BROTP?

Oya oya?

Oya oya oya.

(Leaving Cookie’s answer because YES. X’DDD ♡ ♡ ♡ )

Favorite Stage Play Actor?

This is so hard, omg. ( TT w TT ) Until recently I would have said Kimura Tatsunari, but nOW THAT BOKUTO’S STAGE PLAY ACTOR HAS BEEN ANNOUNCED, IDK, I’M HAVING SECOND THOUGHTS. But for now, I’ll just say Tatsunari because he is an absolutely PERFECT Kageyama. He’s also too cute for me to live, oh my word, boy has the smile of an ANGEL??? I’m honestly so heartbroken that he’s not going to be cast as Kags in future performances. TT TT

Adopt as your child?

GOSHIKI TSUTOMU, OH MY GOSH, LET ME PROTECT THIS PRECIOUS SWAN BBY. ( TT v TT )

Favorite team chant?

Dateko’s is objectively the best, like hands down, but I gotta admit that I’m rather fond of Shiratorizawa’s NICE KILL U-SHI-JI-MA!! (THUMP THUMP) USHIJIMA!! because I would do it all the time with one of my friends at work. Like we’d be on opposite sides of a room, one of us would start the chant and the other one would join in, we’d both stomp our feet against the floor and other people would look at us weird, it was great. XD

Favorite team banner?

Karasuno’s “FLY”!! It’s simple, but bold and inspiring, I love it.

Did Haikyuu inspire you to do something you would not have done before?

Now I’ve never really cared about sports in my entire life (unless it was a game one of my brothers was competing in), but this freaking anime has given me an IMMENSE appreciation for ACTUAL REAL LIFE VOLLEYBALL. During the 2016 Summer Olympics, I watched some of the volleyball games and??? IT WAS FRICKING THRILLING??? I never thought the day would come when I would just sit down and watch a sport on TV, but thanks to Haikyuu!!, I have now not only done that, but I have actually enjoyed it A LOT. (Idk if that quite meets the parameters of the question because I wasn’t exactly “inspired” to watch volleyball, but eh, close enough~ XD)

Haikyuu!! character as your:  

Mom?

SUGAMAMA~ ♡ ♡ ♡

Dad?

DADCHI~ ♡ ♡ ♡

(I mean, c’mon, how could I not choose the Karasuno parents?? > w < )

Elder sister?

I want Saeko as my older sister, yeeeesssss!!

Older brother?

AND TANAKA AS MY OLDER BROTHER PLS?? (I just want to be related to the Tanaka’s, because let’s be real.)

Younger sister?

Yachi Hitoka!! ♡ Precious girl, I love her so much~ ( ; u ; )

Younger brother?

I feel like Tsukki could be my younger brother (not that he’s anything like my actual younger brothers, haha, but like... I just want to tease him and support him)~

Aside from Haikyuu!!, what is your favorite anime? (This question was thrown in for us all to share another fantastic anime with the Haikyuu fandom~)

My favorite anime right now are Free! (for which I am trash, always and forever), Ao no Exorcist, Natsume Yuujinchou, and Uchouten Kazoku~!!

TAGGING: I’m don’t know a lot of people on Tumblr anymore (I wish I had more friends on here, but I also am absolute crap at responding to messages and asks and stuff...;;) so I don’t have that many people to tag... But @puddingcatbae and @dontperishyet, if you guys haven’t done this yet (and would like to), I tag you!! ( > v < ) /

And if any of my other followers/mutuals want to do this, please fill it out and tag me!! I would love to see how you guys would respond to these questions!! Thanks again to @greendoodle and @sarukui for tagging me in this, I had so much fun~!! ♡♡♡

vespertadpole replied to your post “I love that all of the things I do for self-care, survival, and doing...”

I feel like there's a certain commitment to wellness that everyone has difficulty with. But those who can't find their path end up projecting their insecurities onto folks who have found a way to manage their illness. It's the Pain Olympics through a "NT" scale. And it's definitely not okay for them to invalidate what you do every day just to survive >:(

Taking care of yourself is very, very hard with these kinds of illnesses. I can barely do it all most days, so I try to do the most important things. Even when I do my very best, I can still end up in horrible pain and very sick. Sometimes it’s simply out of my control. But just because yoga, herbs, journaling, schedules, etc, aren’t cures, doesn’t mean they’re not super valuable. Not all of these things are going to be for everyone. Everyone needs to find what works for them. Some people find it useful to use a mood tracker, but for me I have a hard time actually doing it aside from whargarbling in my journal when I’m losing my grip. Tingly oil self-massage may be my favorite time of each day, but for someone else that might just be too much for them and so they need a different approach. Everyone is different. 

I feel like there’s this thing where everything becomes about preserving it as an identity, because if something won’t cure them, then it’s not worth it, but also because if it DOES give them relief, maybe they’re scared that their disabled card will be taken away from them or something and they’ll no longer have a voice because according to this mindset, the only people who do yoga are able-bodied neurotypical people (see: all the posts where someone suggests something and get accused of being NT, and it turns out they’ve got like 5 severe mental illnesses). This messes with me a lot because I still have a huge problem with questioning if I’m really sick or not or if I’m just “creating” my illnesses because I’m a selfish lazy weenie or something, even though this is obviously very untrue and it’s not anything I can control and I’ve been sick a looong time. Like, I end up feeling guilty for actually taking care of myself because my brain says “if you were REALLY sick you wouldn’t be doing yoga this morning, you would be crawling to the toilet to hurl, so you’re fake.” It’s a lot to manage my brain and its weird thoughts.

So in these communities where we talk about how important self-care is, so many different ways to care for ourselves get mocked, and we have memes about SC, unless of course it’s medication, which is very important, but there are those who medication doesn’t work for too and the medication isn’t the only part of recovery. It’s part of a balanced self-care routine. I’ve tried 3 or 4 different kinds of meds for fibromyalgia and depression, one for the fatigue/constant sleepiness from the narcolepsy, and I had bad reactions to all of them. So I said, “okay, it’s clear that I’m getting nowhere with my doctors who only know how to prescribe pills, so I need to take this into my own hands.” I’ve been doing so much research the past several years and I’m still constantly learning new ways to care for my body. It’s been a really rough road with lots of bumps and break downs. The time I was most suicidal was when I WAS stuck in that negative state where I was just like “well nothing is going to help so why even bother, I might as well just die if I’m going to have to be in this much pain every day for the rest of my life.” And during that time I was often so depressed that I wouldn’t even take supplements or do self massage or stay hydrated because I was like “why bother” and I felt strong resentful anger towards people who didn’t have these illnesses (I still feel this way a lot actually, it takes a lot of brain-wrangling to snap out of it).

It hurts that other people might be feeling that way too, but I wish they wouldn’t be so aggressive and shit all over other disabled people just because they’re still dealing with the intense hot anger that comes with illnesses. Like I’m pretty cranky most of the time, I’m very negative, I have very bad thoughts about myself and others, but... this is why it’s important for me personally to practice compassion, patience, positivity, etc. Because if I don’t, my natural angry negative state ends up becoming external and causing harm to others through passive aggression, explosive yelling, etc. And I don’t want to be that way anymore so I try really hard to manage my responses even when my brain is a bag of cats. 

But then that makes me a gosh darn neurotypical according to people?? Because I try to be positive and kind even when my world is falling apart and I see no hope for my future and bitterly accept that I will probably die young. (shrug)

Yeah I got curious about aroma therapy when I was pregnant and I mentioned it off hand to my OB and she was like "WAIT there's some you shouldn't do right now", like it's real guys

Today I had a doctor say, "You can't have that. It's an old people disease." Ok but most young people don't get sudden debilitating pain from sprinting 5 yards and have to lie in the back seat of the car moaning all the way home.

If I had a dime, dude...

WTIT: The Blog

 authored by Bud Weiser. Here we will steal all types of questions from every corner of the blogosphere. Our promise to you is that we will work hard to find the most interesting and intelligent questions. You may have heard the expression, “honor among thieves”. In that age-old tradition, we try to credit the blog that we stole it from, if possible. We also provide a link to the victim’s questions in our “Previous Victims” widget. (It’s our way of saying “Thanks!”) Sometimes we edit the original meme, to make it more relevant to our global players, to challenge our players, to select the best questions, or simply to make it less repetitive from recently asked questions from a previously post. Cheers to all of us thieves!
