LOYALTY (PART 6/?)

[staryarn]

That face looks familiar but you can't put a name to her.

Her voice fills your head.

" If only I could go back. Back to the way things used to be. The world full of noise and colors "

- Call out her name

- Cover your ears and listen to the silence

I like to think that during pfl (using his s9 characterization, not s10) wash is the guy you go to when you want to know something (ah la a line in the fall of reach novel I believe where chief says the enlisted personnel always seem to know stuff bc wash is clearly enlisted).

he's in a position where he's privy to information from the higher-ups, and he's friendly enough with the lower rungs that he knows the gossip going around. as a bonus though, wash ain't no narc, so if you want that information you need to offer him something of equivalent exchange (consequently fueling the 'guy who knows things' thing). for example, north had to tell him about using equipment in the field in order to get him to tell him what his meeting with internals was about.

wash isn't the only guy who knows things, of course, but he's the guy who has the widest base of general knowledge. ct is also someone who knows things, but she's a lot more specific, and what she lacks in scale she more than makes up for with how in-depth her knowledge is. wash is where you learn about something from, ct is where you get all the juicy details (to the point of it almost being tmi). she also has an equivalent exchange policy, but people tend to be a bit more reluctant to get information from her because of what her knowledge is (and the borderline 'insane conspiracy theorist' energy doesn't help either).

florida? well...you don't wanna know what he knows. the cost is simply too high.

it’s so hard for me to imagine alucard in a modern au . . . like what in the world is he doing in the city?!

pondering on a meta diving into Gale's abstract brand of selflessness (willingness to go away to a corner of the world to die so that none of the faceless masses will be harmed by his mistake) vs his personal selfishness (willingness to stick by tav despite being repulsed by tiefling camp murder + general vocal approval or interest in accumulating more power) and Gale's status as someone who is good aligned but generally ineffectual at enforcing actual good (the way that wyll or karlach will actually leave the party) which is fascinating for a fairly good-aligned person. just love when the Good Guy is actually kind of fucking weird. edit: tumblr cut off my tags Okay. and how all of this ties back in an interesting way to his relationship and power imbalance with mystra. he was wronged, deeply, but he also desires still that ... status / closeness to divinity in some way, by her influence. Gale thinks that he would be a better god simply by virtue of his mortality but he cannot escape the appeal of holding himself apart from others and being more than, greater than, something closer to godliness and thus inherently removed from mortal values and standards of right and wrong, which the gods themselves don't adhere to in the same way.

I have really needed a good day for a while, and today was that day.

For the last three nights, I've been praying to the powers that be that I could be brave enough to take the test, because I figured even if I failed, at least I would have the experience and understand what I needed to work towards.

I drove 45 minutes out to another town on Wednesday, down highways and merging and doing all that stuff perfectly and I was like, "I can do this."

And then that DMV is closed because the DMV is apparently only currently has 540 people for the WHOLE state of 10 million people.

I did not know that at the time, and went to my city's DMV. Which was already booked solid.

So day two rolls in and I was telling myself I could be brave again and hoping I wouldn't chicken out. I went earlier to my DMV and the line was already so long at 10:30 AM that I was like, I will try another town, and went to another small town only to find that their DMV was also closed.

So I was looking at it and I decided that today I would just extend my permit and then schedule an appointment for December to get my license. That I would practice driving and get better at it and be ready come December, but I really wanted to make sure I could secure my ID before November (which I know is a ways off, but I have anxiety).

But then while I was waiting in line, the woman in front of me was also there to get a license and she asked someone else who took the test what it was like and then told the person she was with what she'd heard.

So I asked her more about it and the test sounded really short and pretty easy.

So I decided to try it, because if I failed, I could still get my permit renewed.

And I messed up a LOT. Like, when we were done, the woman testing me was like, "You did...okay. There is a LOT you need to work on. But you did okay."

And I was like, omg is 'okay' passing???? But I was too nervous to ask her so I just kind of stood there nodding through all the stuff she said I needed to work on, and then she had me check the screen to make sure everything was accurate and it was for a license not a permit and I just

I have a license :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

While I was driving, there was even a crazy driver that was doing a U turn and then decided to not do it and come down the wrong side of the road and I managed to stop and not get in an accident, so even with my inability to reach the speed limit because fast speeds terrify me, I still passed!

Last drawing of my summer class, we were only given an hour but I think I made good progress (this was a test of sorts)

This will be the last time I'm studying under this professor, so I'd like to share his art page (I think it's neat to see how his approach to art has influenced my own)

hmm. there is an ML masters program. part time. whose applications close today. they require a CV, letter of motivation, and statement of research interest. I'm not even too sure what their research focus areas are. a CV usually takes me like a week. it is 17:30. am I to make bad life decisions

Some of y’all have GOT to get obnoxiously into amateur indie films on YouTube made for fun by Just Some Guy (gender neutral) and their friends. Go watch some shaky camera work and the best acting college age kids can muster for a story or concept they loved so much they put it out into the world. They’re braver and more genuine than literally anything you’ll see in a box office or streaming platform because they’re making art for art’s sake without a multibillion dollar industry breathing down their neck.
