#personalized new year gifts

[archiesbestgiftstore]

The arrival of the New Year is always a time of excitement, renewal, and reflection. It’s a chance to leave behind what no longer serves us and look forward to a fresh start. Whether you’re making resolutions, setting new goals, or just taking a moment to breathe, the start of a new year brings with it an undeniable sense of possibility. It's a time to embrace what’s to come, and part of this celebration includes exchanging gifts with those we care about. Gift-giving isn’t just a tradition; it's a beautiful way to express love, appreciation, and the hope that this year will be full of new adventures and opportunities.

I have it stuck in my head that if Bruce got Damian when he was still a baby and Dami was not trained in secrecy, this would happen.

Four year old Damian: My dad is Batman!

The group of preschoolers who were playing with him: Woww!!

And later, several of them excitedly tells their parents: His dad's BATMAN! So cool!

The parents: Batman, huh? That's very cool. And Damian tells Bruce he told everyone at school that he's Batman, and Bruce is paranoid they'll tell their parents, and the parents will expose his identity.

And then Alfred reminds him that no one's going to believe a four year old boy. Not when that boy is comparing his father to a hero.

It has just gone midnight here, so a very Happy New Year to all of my followers, wherever you are! 2024 was one heck of a year, with so many ups and downs both for me personally and the fandom at large. I won two awards for my work, had surgery, spoke at conferences all across the country, and traveled to London for the first time ever to see an unforgettable production of Macbeth and had the opportunity to meet David afterward(!). This year saw us weather so many trials and tribulations as a fandom, and as deep as our sorrow was, I am hopeful that our exhilaration over what's to come with GO 3 will be even deeper.

I am forever grateful for all of your unwavering support through so many challenging times, and I am sending heartfelt wishes to each and every one of you for a happy, healthy, and joyous 2025. ❤️❤️

I am not a fish: Introduction

"Looking at their work I would be expecting 8s or 9s"

My biology teacher said that when I was in year nine. It was not the first time someone had said something to that effect, and it was not the last.

The fact of the matter is that I spent most of my time, up until year 11, being told how far I would go, how high my grades were expected to be and how I could do anything that I wanted. People have said that, I just about nudged into the gifted category(though that is a nuanced discussion for another time), not like some of my friends who passed everything with their eyes closed, I definitely had to work, but I was honestly doing well.

My first set of mock GCSEs in year eleven came back and I was broken. Not one of my grades was above a six. This continued through year 11, I was not living up to the expectations that were set. This all came to a head on results day when I discovered that I had only just scraped a 6 which was not enough to do maths A-level, and without maths, I couldn't do physics. This was an issue. I want to be an astrophysicist, however, I have always been in a complex "situationship" with maths, and honestly, I think we might need couple's counselling, but I'm stretching this metaphor too far so suffice to say, I was not too proud of my performance.

So here I am, the day before my first day of college and getting set to do Biology, Environmental science, and Geology. And I will be the first to admit, I am still bitter, I am still upset, I am not over it, but if I could do all the subjects I wanted too, they would be next on my list after physics and maths. The idea is that I will retake my maths GCSE and then go back after college to do physics and maths, so really, in essence I am just taking the scenic route, and maybe, I will end up somewhere wonderful that I could never have dreamed of.

take it easy and good luck to everyone starting this new year

Six Years

Six years later

The sunrise glows through my glass painted windows

Six years later

I drive in my car with my windows

down as the wind is kissing my cheeks

Six years later

I’m singing the songs that reminds me

of my heart breaks

Six years later

I’m writing poetry about the ones who

left their imprints on my heart

Six year later

I’m alive

and sharing nothing but

love

with the world-

even though the darkness

was my

closest

friend

I'm a dedicated new year resolutioner, because that is what happens when you have a January first birthday and a life that needs to run on task lists + prescription simulants. This year my sole goal was to survive mourning my love-of-my-life dog, which is the kind of goal that people either understand is a full life year dedicated process or treat as a non goal. My secondary and very easy goal was not give a fuck about anyone else's evaluation of this goal. It's a wry joke not joke of mine that Ernie Dog was considerate to the very end and fought his lung cancer with fierce precision: he tidily exited this world on December 31st. There is no anniversary he could have chosen that would be more easily memorable.

Easy timekeeping but he left my birthday my own. Always a gentleman, Ernesto.

But I'm not here, yet, to be sad about my dog in public. This is, presumably, an activity for tomorrow. We'll find out.

Resolutions, right? This year I'm back to form because you gotta be, eventually, and so I have many productivity focused goals. One serious physical goal that involves specific metrics and getting a personal trainer again. But my fun body goal, however, is to get the fuck back on that pole. Before I got my knee injury I was most of the way to landing a solid human flag each time, so I figure that's a sub goal in there, somewhere, folded in, because do you know how obnoxiously cool it is to be able to do those on the fly? Extremely. I'm gonna be so annoying.

My artistic and professional goals are secret, by which I mean: I've had several hours of conversation about them, but only with people I trust.

I think it's important to have fun, silly goals, though, to mix up your list. I'd say stupid goals except that building fun into your life is a deadly serious priority.

So I am resolving to:

take pictures of ordinary places around home base the way that street photographers do when they're on vacation, and

leave comments on Ao3 consistently after years and years of being a filthy freeloader

which should be a good time, I think.

i cant speak on the speculation regarding pete buying brock a build-a-bear christmas gift with voice notes of the team… please i can’t even begin to think about the implications of this

A gift for @tohruies !!

"The perfect winter day."

Word count: 400

Not proofread ! (Also, I haven't gotten alhaitham's character down fully. Bear with me 🤧)

The air was chilly as snow fell in soft clumps, collecting in the pairs' hair as they walked down the streets covered in a thin layer of white.

Alhaitham carried a few bags in one hand, different designer brands from the mall. He'd only have the best for the one he loved most. In his other hand was coco's, tucked into his jacket pocket to keep her hand warm while he tossed a short glance every once in a while to make sure she kept her other hand tucked in her own pocket.

The silence between them was comfortable, laid over the area like a warm blanket in the cold air. It wasn't long before alhaitham was pulling the door open for coco to step inside, following after her. As she took her shoes off, he gently placed his hand over her shoulder, making sure she won't fall before slipping his own off.

After putting away the new items they bought together, he made sure the heat was on before joining her in the kitchen, a nice warm drink already being poured into two mugs. He smiled softly, resting his hands on her hips as he pressed himself close, giving a soft kiss to the back of her head.

"I made you some hot chocolate." She turned her head to look up at him, a soft smile to match his pulling at her lips. "..thank you."

The two made their way to the loveseat near the tv, alhaitham sitting down and pulling her onto his lap as he gently took the hot mug from her hand to set it beside his on the end table. "What was that movie you wanted to watch last week?" His voice was gentle beside her ear, hus breath warm against her skin.

"Oh!" Coco grinned and reached for the remote, leaning back against her lover as she set the movie up, yet his gaze did not stray from her lovely face. "Ready?" She turned her head to meet his gaze and held back a small laugh at the expression on his face. Absolutely lovesick.

She leaned in to press a quick kiss to his lips and directed him to watch the tv, starting the movie.

He couldn't help the way his eyes drifted back to coco every once in a while, admiring her beauty before he forced his gaze back to the screen.
