SteveTony Weekly - February 11th - Week

I’m traveling this weekend for my niece’s quinceanera so I’m sharing a list of my favorite fics that I posted on twitter last year. It’s still some of my favorite fics of all time, so this week go show them some love or send me some of YOUR favs, and I’ll be back next Sunday with our regularly scheduled weekly reading.

~*~

Open Field in Front of Him by orphan_account

Steve Rogers's football season is functionally over after a loss to Rutgers, but he finds a distraction in Tony Stark (yes, THAT Tony Stark). A college AU Stony fic.

In Trouble Deep by FestiveFerret, SirSapling

"Whoever did this has a reason, and Stark needs to be with someone who can protect him. He won’t exactly be able to protect himself like this.” Fury looked at the baby consideringly. “No, it’s you, Steve. Besides, he likes you. Suck it up, soldier, you’re stuck with him.”

The Twice-Told Tale by arysteia

For someone he'd hero-worshipped for so long, Steve Rogers in the flesh is a pretty big disappointment. For one thing, he keeps looking at Tony as though he reminds him of someone else, and even if he never says anything, Tony's pretty sure it's his father. A lifetime of not measuring up to Howard's expectations is more than enough, thank you very much, and he's certainly not going to make an effort to live up to any of Steve's. Steve's pretty clearly failed to live up to his expectations, in any case, and that's not hypocritical at all.

Bulletproof by foxxcub

At age fifteen, Steve Rogers had been in love with Tony Stark.

By age twenty, he’d (mostly) gotten over it. And then he promptly became Tony Stark's fuck buddy.

dick drunk by mistymountainking

“I’m going to fuck you stupid,” Steve says, pulling away only a fraction of an inch to say it, a promise as deep and certain as the look in his eyes, “and you’re going to take it. Aren’t you, Tony.”

Tony wants a drink. Steve gives him something else.

Sixpence In His Shoe by scifigrl47

Steve and Tony should really read the fine print on what they're signing. Then again, some mistakes are not really mistakes.

Straight on till Morning by Sineala

Tony Stark resigned his commission in Starfleet five years ago, after a disastrous away mission, and he swore he'd never go back. He just wants to be left alone to build warp engines in peace. But the universe has more in store for him than that, as he discovers when Admiral Fury comes to him with an offer he could never have expected and cannot possibly refuse: first officer and chief engineer aboard the all-new USS Avenger, a starship of Tony's own design. What's more, the Avenger's captain is Steve Rogers, hero of the Earth-Romulan War. Believed dead for over a century, Steve is miraculously alive... and very, very attractive.

But nothing is ever easy for Tony. As he wrestles with his secret desire for his new captain and his not-so-dormant fears, another mission starts to go wrong, and Tony becomes aware that Steve has secrets of his own -- and the truth could change everything.

For the Love of a Dragon by Captain_Panda

If it was between you and your dragon, who would you save?

Deep in the Heart of Me by Finely Honed (jaqen_hgar)

Veteran single dad Steve runs a tattoo shop. Pepper arranges for Tony to get that tattoo he always wanted, and he winds up with the mother of all crushes instead. Jumping out of airplanes is one thing, but love requires real courage. Steve struggles with letting someone into his life. Tony tries to keep his heart intact while Steve works on his issues.

Craving a realistic depiction of a romantic relationship featuring PTSD, mental health issues, and characters who discuss their problems? This might be for you. No magic fixes here but a happy ending is guaranteed!

Never Too Late for Love by Sineala

Steve has always believed that a soulbond is a blessing -- a rare and beautiful miracle, joining the thoughts and feelings of two people forever, from the first time they touch. Steve knows he's not going to be one of the lucky ones. He knows Gail isn't his soulmate. But he loves her, even if they're not soulmates, and he's going to do right by her. After the war's over, he's going to marry her, and they're going to settle down. They'll buy a house. They'll have children. He'll see his family again. Maybe Bucky will live next door. It's going to be a good life. He doesn't need a soulbond. He'll be fine without one.

Then Steve wakes up sixty years in the future to find that his wonderful life has moved on without him. His family is long dead. His fiancée married his best friend. And the only purpose he has left is leading the Ultimates, a misbegotten team of superheroes with flaws too numerous to count. Steve hates everything about the future -- but most of all he detests Tony, flashy and flirtatious, who embodies everything Steve hates about a world he never wanted to live in.

And, oh, yeah, Steve has a soulmate after all: Tony fucking Stark.

Toy Soldiers by copperbadge

When Steve Rogers, five foot four and a hundred and ten pounds, met Tony Stark in a bar, he didn't expect it to lead to a relationship. Or that Tony would find out he's not an art student during a SHIELD rescue mission in Afghanistan.

there are still beautiful things by meidui

The day Tony takes Steve home from the New York Army National Guard is the best day of his life.

I've got you under my skin by sirona

Five times Beijing 2008 Olympics Gold Medalist Tony Stark thinks it's going to be no more difficult a job to get ready for London 2012, than what he has just achieved. That is, of course, before Coach Fury comes to visit, and offers him a once-in-a-lifetime chance to be a part of something much bigger than himself. Swimming AU.

The Foodieverse by copperbadge, scifigrl47

It's an AU where everyone works in the food industry. That makes total sense and is definitely not wildly irrational on any axis.

do you fondue? by calciseptine

Tony has done crazy things in the name of food, but falling in love with Steve Rogers really takes the cake.

Homefront by copperbadge

Steve Rogers is a capable leader, a kind and cheerful man, a good friend, a strong role model, and a loyal soldier. He's also teetering on the edge of suicide.

stress relief by romanoff

They don't love each other. They barely even like each other.

The Jar by Sineala

The Avengers are ridiculously competitive people, and what starts out as a silly late-night team discussion quickly becomes a contest: their names. Not the code names -- the nicknames. Who can go the longest without using them? They pledge to spend a week not nicknaming each other, and they'll pay up every time they mess up. This hits Tony the hardest, and not just financially. Tony's got a lot of nicknames for everyone, but most of all for Steve -- and when Tony can't use the names he's already got, the names he uses reveal feelings he had no idea he had.

Celestial Navigation by sabrecmc

Celestial Navigation: 18 year old Omega!Tony finds himself Bonded to Captain Steve Rogers. He isn't happy about it until he is.

By request, here is CN in one place without other stories and artwork.

ad astra by Areiton

The first time he kissed Tony Stark, the stars danced overhead.

It’s been kinda a weirdly emotional day today.

So, this hill here is one that my dad has climbed twice with my brother - once on my 11th birthday and once on my 18th birthday. And both times I wanted to join them, but my mum said no because a) you need to entertain the people who are here to celebrate your birthday (11th was my uncle and 18th was my brother’s partner which…he was the one who left her to climb a hill. She was his partner why couldn’t he entertain her) and b) “your dad and brother don’t get much boy-time together. Let them enjoy it” (when I said I wanted boy-time too I was told I was a girl and to sit nicely and serve the sandwiches so…)

Anyway.

My dad really isn’t a big bucket-list kinda guy, but he’s always said he wants to climb it with me one time before he dies. And over the last year his health…well, let’s just say it’s not been improving.

Now, this is not a big hill, not by any stretch of the imagination (I think it’s got a prominence of about 80 meters so it’s really not high) but you have to factor in that dad’s got a whole load of health conditions, I’ve got chronic pain in my feet that I’ve had since childhood and a bunch of injuries from just before covid that never healed properly, and some pretty severe asthma, and we are from the flattest county in the country. Like. We are not people designed for hills. I mean, the house I grew up in was below sea level. I get altitude sickness going upstairs. In my life I’ve climbed two mountains and a glacier and they all took me the better part of a day.

So we go today, because neither of us is getting any younger. And we leave stupidly early in the morning. Because we’re like ‘this is gonna take us a good couple of hours’. We get there and we say we’ll take it at our own pace. It’s quiet and truly a beautiful morning. I have an asthma attack halfway up, but that was to be expected.

Even with the five minute break we took for me to recover, we still managed to climb it in just over half an hour. We then had to sit at the top for forty minutes whilst I dealt with a touch of vertigo. (Look. I have really shitty depth perception, and my brain couldn’t handle the fact that I knew the hill next to us was quite far away, but it looked like I should have been able to touch it. I have the same problem when looking at the clouds in the sky. Always have. It just makes me incredibly dizzy).

And like. It’s kinda dumb but this is something that we’ve been saying we’ll do together for years and it’s never really happened for one reason or another (usually illness and injury) and like. Today we just,,,did it. And it took the morning. And like. Okay I hurt like fuck now but also it’s just feels like this stupid hill - not one that’s particularly hard to climb or anything - is more of an achievement than any of the hikes I’ve ever gone on, because we did it together. I dunno.

And radio silence broken

Left the marina on the 11th of February, crossed the trent all fine, did shardlow-willington on the 14th-16th of Feb with my partner along for the ride

Since then I've done several days single handing, had my mom and sister on board, and a friend who also wants to buy a boat once her daughter is older. I've discovered I am a BAD teacher when it comes to boating, and I actually much prefer boating alone. That being said I love having my partner on board and we work very well as a team, he makes the tea whilst I steer and it works out very nicely.

See below for where I'm at now and a look at the work I've gotten done so far

I'm currently just above the Cudworth flight of locks (11 in total, I think it's a 76' rise all in all but i may be wrong as I don't have my map to hand), I should be tackling those with my partner next weekend

Last weekend my friend came to refit the subfloor, he's an incredibly talented carpenter and he's done an absolutely immaculate job. We chose not to secure it down and to instead drill finger holes and leave them free for the moment as when it's a bit warmer I'll get them up and treat the rust in the cabin bilge.

Whilst trying to identify the source of the water running down my stove pipe I discovered that it isn't the chimney collar leaking but the seal around pipe itself. The fire rope is old and basically disintegrated when i knocked it so ive bitten the bullet and pulled that and the sealent out. It wasn't previously leaking CO but it definitely will now so the fire is out of action until I reseal that. I'm in two minds as to how I go about doing that, as I want to retile the surround fairly soon and I'm not keen on sealing it twice... BUT I officially vacate my flat in 3 weeks time and it's so very cold at night right now, so I think sealing the pipe twice seems like the only option for my health!

The start (or end, I guess) of the coventry canal near Fradley junction is grim. The banks are all collapsing and there's very few mooring spaces, and with the bottom lock at the junction onto the rest of the T&M closed until the other day all the proper mooring spots were taken. This resulted in me and a friend mooring up in the dark without proper lighting (note to self, get the tunnel light fixed as a priority), she held a torch and I steered. I get terrible night blindness and I don't have any depth perception anyway, so it was more than a bit unsafe. But we managed and found some mooring strip, which felt like a blessing from the heavens! I've moved on from that mooring now but it was a lovely spot, it even had its own woodpecker and I do feel a bit sad to have left it.

It still all feels very surreal, in 3 weeks I'll live on a boat full time. Whenever I'm in my flat now I find myself wishing I was on the boat, but as I've not actually moved in yet when I'm on the boat I find myself wishing I was with my cats! I'm almost packed to move, just got some large furniture to store and then I'll be good to go.

The boating community makes me feel very warm and full of love. On my way into Barton-under-needwood a couple saw that I was single handing and helped me through a lock. Today a kind gentleman held my center line whilst I moored up as there was an awful crosswind making things very difficult. He then returned 20 minutes later with a sandwich and a kettle of water to top my flask back up after I'd mentioned I was out of gas! I could have cried I was so thankful. I'm now full of great pub reccomendations and I feel very connected to life again.

Here's some pictures of the last month, next post will likely be once I'm fully moved in three weeks from now

Muddy shoes on valentines day, views, locks, horses, another bit of river, a very sweet dog friend, new sub floor, and a glance at my view from the tiller

I am living life I guess

hi hi i saw your requests were open? i was wondering if i could request a scenario where reader remembers how bad she used to be treated in high school by her friends, and she comes across a report she made a long time ago to her teachers about her being bullied online for her looks and being called really vulgar names by boys, but now it’s made her indifferent to expressing emotion and she starts crying when she sees the report, so bakugou comforts her? maybe takes her out to eat? i’m so sorry if this is too much, i’m in my last year of highschool kinda sitting around the sidelines and I remembered how bad it used to be which ruined my whole day😭 have a good day/night :)

ᝰ INCLUDES ⋮ bakugo katsuki x fem! reader

— CONTENT WARNING ⋮ angst w fluff ending, bullying, past trauma, best boyfriend katsuki, use of the endearment 'pretty girl' twice (other than that its pretty much gn)

— BONUS ARYA ⋮ hello luv ! ! m so sry it took me superr long to get to ur request,,,, first n foremost i wna say that i love u so much n im always here for u,,, im so sry u had to go thru something like this, i hope this piece can make ur day a bit better ! ! also my inbox is always open if u wna talk <3

ever since you were three you’ve felt as if you were a fighter, a fighter fighting through the rough reality of being quirkless. it was not only hard mentally but also affected your school life gravelly. from being being bullied to being called vulgar words. you were from the very start a prey for this world full of predators.

however, life seemed to get better when you met your boyfriend pro hero dynamight. even though you were a quirkless nobody as per you, bakugo knew you were special. and at times he didn’t understand how someone as sweet, loving and caring as you could feel as if they were a nobody.

you’re everything and more he could’ve asked in a partner, and listening to things you went through, through-out your school life made him sick. because he knows he made someone else make the same way as people made you feel.

thinking about how he was once the predator preying on someone who he thought was a quirkless nobody.

he has changed though, bakugo katsuki is a changed man and he proves it to you on every occasion he can that he is no more a predator, he is now an alibi to protect people like you, who are bullied for something they can’t control.

and he succeeded in it. you had no longer thoughts about people who bullied you, it was a chapter in life that you had shut closed and you were finally happy in life, so so happy.

however, everyday is an up and down.

one evening while you’re boyfriend was showering you stupidly enough decided to go through some old stuff of yours. and thats when you found it, a hardcopy of the report you’d once written to your homeroom teacher in 11th grade when things had gotten really really bad for you.

your curiosity got the best of you, and even though the small voice in the back of your head begged you— it begged you to not read it, not read through the trauma you’ve faced, something you always wanted to shut down and never open again, you did it anyways.

you skimmed over the format diving straight to the main matter of the report.

i’m writing this letter to you to bring a very important issue to your attention and i’m hoping you can help me. i’m a student in your grade, along with 20 other students. as you may already know i’m quirkless and that has taken a toll on my mental health ever since i was big enough to realise what being quirkless meant. however, i’ve been continuously bullied and harassed by my fellow students. being called stuff like ‘useless’, ’stupid’, quirkless idiot’ and many other words which are extremely harsh. on many occasions my fellow classmates have told me to take my own life because im so ‘useless’.

recently my house address has been leaked by someone and i have experienced my fellow batchmates throwing stones at my window. i feel highly unsafe. it was bearable when it was just verbal abuse but now it’s getting out of hands and i’m quite literally scared for my life—

you clutched the piece of paper tightly, not wanted to read anymore. it was so painful reliving those times. it felt as if you were stuck again, stuck in the constant loop of being bullied and tortured. continuously being told to end your life.

thinking about it all restricted your breathe, it coming out in pants as tears flowed through your eyes freely.

it hurted so bad, your heart felt so fucking heavy, all these things all this trauma that you, as a 16 year old faced has affected you even when you're a grown up.

opening upto people, talking about your feeling, all of this has made it so hard for you. how indifferent you are just because you didn't have a quirk.

“babe have you seen-“ bakugo said as he came out of the shower with only his sweatpants on, though he stopped mid- sentence when he found you on the edge of bed clutching a paper in your hand and crying.

without wasting another second bakugo rushed to your side, sitting infront of you on the floor on his knees, taking the piece of paper from your hand and placing your small hands in his huge calloused ones.

“wha’s wrong pretty girl?” he asked rubbing his thumb on your palms as worry laced his feature.

sniffling you said, “’s nothin’ Important ‘suki, ’s jus’ my old report i wrote to my homeroom teacher.” bakugo’s hand moved to your face wiping away your tears

“what report sweet girl?” he asked, while his one hand stroked your cheek and the other held your hand.

you looked down, a fresh set of tears forming in your eyes, your lower lip wobbled as you sighed,”’s from back when the bullying….” you looked up at the ceiling still not meeting your boyfriend’s worried gaze,”……’s from back when the bullying got really bad, ’n i know ’s stupid cryin’ over it now but—“

bakugo stood up in a heartbeat and engulfed you in a hug, “’s not stupid baby, don’ beat yourself up, your feelin’s are valid.” he pulled back holding your face in his hands, his thumb stroking your cheek bones, “gosh i hate those fuckers, wish i coulda beat the shit outta each ’n every one of them.” he angrily said, though a softer tone still visible in his voice.

a choked chuckle left your mouth at his words, soon followed by another sniffle,”’s alright i’ve got you now.” you smiled at him hugging his waist and snuggling your neck in his broad chest.

“you w’na go out pretty girl? jus’ you ’n me out on a date? we can go wherever you want?” he whispered in your ear as he hugged you tightly letting you embrace him. bakugo placed a chaste kiss on the top of your head waiting for your answer.

“……even to the cafe you don’t like because there are so many cheesy couples?” you asked face still buried in his chest as you enjoyed the warmth that his body radiated.

“yeah, even that shitty cafe you like so much.” he grumbled, but he knew— he knew that he was more than to take you to that shit ass cafe with the cheesiest couples if it meant that you’d be happy and smiling again.

“yeah, yeah i’d love to go with you ‘suki.” you replied pulling away the slightest so you can look into his beautiful crimson eyes that brought you so much warmth.

bakugo nodded his head and gave you the softest smile, a smile only and only for you.

Astrology Observations #2

Hi guys, I really loved all the nice support for the last post, thank you all so much :) I was wondering if there’s any type of astrology posts you guys would want me to post, let me know! Without further ado, here’s the observations.

Note: These might not apply to everyone, and not all aspects are bad, some just require more work than others or are underdeveloped! <3

TW: Abuse, ED, Health issues.

🦄Mars Square Pluto if underdeveloped can be really scary. Individuals with this placement could be particularly violent and have uncontrollable tempers. I’ve met many individuals with this placement, people with this placement developed are very ambitious and have a lot of energy. However, I’ve met others with this placement underdeveloped who have been really scary, for lack of a better term.

🦄Same goes with synastry, I’ve had this aspect in synastry twice and the relationship became extremely abusive and toxic. Obviously it’s not always the case with this aspect, but it’s something to be wary of and it takes a lot of hard work and commitment to deal with this aspect. If both individuals make this work, it can result in a very strong bond.

🦄Afflicted prominent Virgo placements can result in one having bad eyesight. Every person I’ve met with a Virgo placement in their big three that’s afflicted wears glasses, and I have an afflicted Virgo Midheaven and my eyesight is terrible. I’ve also found this to be true in individuals with an afflicted Mercury (i.e. a lot of squares, oppositions, quincunxes, even conjunctions).

🦄I’ve found that individuals with afflicted Taurus placements tend to get sore throats or strep throat a lot. (My cousin has both Mercury and Venus in Taurus, and they’re very afflicted and she gets strep throat a lot). My other friend has Saturn in Taurus and her Saturn is extremely afflicted, and she got strep a lot as a kid.

🦄Venus-Uranus conjunction, Venus in the 1st, and Mars in the 1st are usually indicators of love/attraction at first sight in romantic synastry.

🦄Sagittarius placements by far make the funniest people (not being biased, but the people who have made me laugh the most in my life have personal Sagittarius placements).

🦄Leo Mars are definitely the kinds of people who would’ve posted a black screen on snapchat in middle school saying “dont hmu” when angry/upset. LMAO.

🦄Building on that fire moon and/or fire mars are extremely dramatic when they’re angry. I have an Aries moon and I stomp around and stick my nose up in the air when I’m angry without even realizing it. My friend who is a Sagittarius moon is also very dramatic when she’s angry with the way she talks and expresses things. My friend with a Leo Mars usually makes dramatic hand gestures explaining why she’s angry and moves around when explaining it.

🦄Lilith-Midheaven aspects get sexualized ALOT and if not sexualized, they’re talked about a lot, especially at the workplace.

🦄Pluto in the 11th, Chiron in the 11th, and Lilith in the 11th can have a harder time making friends because people get “weird vibes” from them (obviously not always the case but this is what I’ve noticed).

🦄Moon in the 8th people have a heavy presence. I know three people with this placement and they’re EXTREMELY intense. They’re also extremely intuitive. Definitely a fan of this placement.

🦄I’ve noticed people with Saturn in the 5th tend to date either later in life or very rarely. If they do date, they don’t get into committed relationships very easily.

🦄Pluto in the 12th placements deal with a lot of paranoia on any variety of things. My dad has this and is extremely paranoid when it comes to money, even though he never had a reason to be. My cousin is extremely paranoid when it comes to school even though she studies 24/7 and is at the top of her class.

🦄Moon in the 4th…their family HEAVILY influences who they are and their life, either for the better or for the worse. I’ve also noticed that they tend to be a lot like one of their parents. I know a girl who has this, and she’s the carbon copy of her mother. She has the same personality, even down to the way she talks.

🦄Lilith in the 2nd is a common eating disorder placement. :(

Hope you guys enjoyed!

This just some personal astro observations:

🔩😒Ever since my Moon started transiting Virgo (which in Sidereal is my natal Moon sign), I've been doing more natural looks. Like I wear gloss versus lipsticks, monotone eye shadow vs glittery ones and even more flowy dresses and outfits.

🔩😒When it was in Leo (so the past two years). I was a lot more expressive with my clothing choices. I also was a lot more bolder in general, now I'm more laid back and less concerned about how others perceive me.

🔩😒🔩😒🔩😒🔩😒🔩😒🔩😒🔩😒🔩😒

🔩😒I will say I did a chart for my senior year of high school (which was actually garbage speaking that I missed half due to physical and mental health issues), and I'm not surprised to find my transit Moon was in Scorpio. I was also a Scorpio Rising that year. I went through so much shit that idk if I'm ready for the next Scorpio Moon transit I'll have.

Another set of notes about that particular year's chart:

🔩😒Tw Death- I had a close friend die that year (Pluto was in my 3rd house)

🔩😒I learned what I wanted to do in life (North Node/Sun conjunction in my 11th house) after having one of the best jobs I've ever had (I worked with young kids/babies and the elderly)

🔩😒I fell out with a bunch of other friends (conflicting schedules, being left out of things, miscommunication, and our lives just going different ways) (Mercury Retrograde in 11th)

This a side note and maybe a general observation but: Maybe Mercury Rx in a chart can show the type of people you struggle to communicate with that year.

Another one in terms of the 11th house but Rx planets can hint at endings of friendships due to the planets theme.

🔩😒Since Lilith was in my first house conjunct my Moon (and my ascendant).... I was sexualized so much. I got stalked multiple times that year. Followed by grown ass adults (who knew I was a minor) to my school. Got slut shamed by random folks. Like I don't want to talk about triggering topics but yeah.

Last time I had a Scorpio Rising (with the ruler being in 3rd (again)) I also had one of the worst years of my life. Parents got divorced. I had a horrible summer camp experience. Got kidnapped (0 outta 10 would never want to experience that again). My grandma died. I moved... Yeah wouldn't stan a Scorpio rising for shit.

🔩😒I was extremely social that year (Sun in 11th) and I actually made friends with some famous people and had a large Instagram page (mostly writing about activism and daily life) (Sun also in Virgo)

🔩😒I had hot bitch privilege (even if it didn't always work out in my favor). I literally had a glow up that year, people started approaching me more and I was a lot more in tune with what looks good on me/makes me feel pretty. I also was in and out of a "not the best" relationship. It was giving codependent (Libra Venus in 12th)

🔩😒I had Uranus transiting my 6th house... It was also retrograde so no wonder I felt like actual shit. Also it was in Aries... And yes I did get hospitalized TWICE for mental health related reasons (and had seizures too which was great).

🔩😒The amount of projections I had to deal with was ridiculous. Also the amount of time I disassociated (but was very creative and able to make some really good art) was also ridiculous. (Neptune Rx in 5th house).

🔩😒I actually started inner child work that year with my therapist. It was great (besides the acknowledging shitty things), I learned a lot about how my current actions are explained by my past, and how I have always been a bit too trusting and it sometimes backfired. (Chiron Rx in 5th)

🔩😒In terms of finances I.... Well I made money and spent it to feel better. Meaning I had no money so I had to make more. Just to spend it again. (We love a Saturn 2nd house appearance)

🔩😒As much as I wanna drag that damn Rx Pluto, I learned to stick up for myself. Especially in writing or from friends (or people I just associate with). I learned about various communication methods and when/how/ and why to or not, communicate. (3rd house)

Its kinda funny how most of this ended up being about my senior year in high school. I guess at the end of either this Moon transit or year, I'll have more tales about the Solar Return and overall transits that really impacted me

Louie B. Felt & May Anderson

In a previous ask, I mentioned “that there were women in 1800′s Utah who used polygamy as a cover for them to have a relationship.”

I need to clarify, it’s often difficult to determine the exact relationship of people from earlier time periods, especially as it wasn’t until the mid-1800′s that the idea there are people who are gay or bi came into existence. Prior to this, there weren’t gay or bi people, merely people who engaged in sex acts with someone of their own gender, people did not identify as primarily attracted to this or that gender. Also, people don’t often write the explicit details of their relationship in a letter to their aunt or nephew, thus leaving us to piece together clues to determine the true nature of their relationship.

With that said, the most famous female-female relationship in LDS history is that of Louie B. Felt and May Anderson.

In 1866, Louise migrated to Utah with her family when she was 16. In Nebraska, she met Joseph Felt. In December of that year they were married in Salt Lake City.

Louie (the masculinized nickname she used) was unable to have children after a miscarriage. In 1872, Louie used her inheritance to buy a house in the Salt Lake 11th Ward where she met and "fell in love with" Alma Elizabeth (Lizzie) Mineer. Louie encouraged Joseph to marry the young woman as a plural wife, and she proceeded to bear several children.

In 1880, Louie was made the first general president of the Primary. She continued to serve in that position until 1925 when she stepped down due to failing health.

Louie fell in love with "another beautiful Latter-day Saint girl" named Lizzie Liddell, and in 1881 Joseph married her. It’s unclear when, but at some point Lizzie Liddell divorced Joseph and moved to California with her children.

In 1883, 33-year-old Louie Felt met 19 year-old May Anderson, and they also fell in love. This time Joseph Felt did not marry the new love interest. In 1889 May moved into the home Louie had bought, and it’s unclear where Joseph lived. He was often on the move to avoid arrest for being a polygamist, and when he was at home it’s thought he spent much of his time in the other house with Lizzie & the children.

Louie & May lived together for almost 40 years.

In 1890, Louie asked May to be a member of the general board of the Primary.

Children's Friend, a magazine printed by the Primary, was established in 1901 and contained information and lessons to help the children's teachers.

In 1905, May Anderson became 1st Counselor to Louie Felt in the general presidency of the Primary. She served as 1st counselor for 20 years.

Anderson initiated the Primary Children's Hospital in Salt Lake City in 1901 (today the hospital is a member of Intermountain Healthcare (IHC) and is the only children's hospital in the network).

After Joseph’s death in 1907, Louie and May continued to live together, sleeping in the same bedroom of a multi-room home

According to their biographer, Felt and Anderson's relationship was a "symbiotic partnership with each compensating for the weaknesses and complementing the strengths of the other."

The 1919 Children's Friend wrote that "the friendship which had started when Sister Felt and [May Anderson] met...ripened into love. Those who watched their devotion to each other declare that there never were more ardent lovers than these two." This biography describes the beginning of their relationship as a "time of love feasting," and makes clear the two women shared the same bed.

Twice in the Children's Friend, Anderson and Felt were referred to as "the David and Jonathan" of the Primary (more pages of the Bible are devoted to the ‘friendship’ of David & Jonathan than any other relationship, a friendship which at the very least has homoromantic undertones)

In 1925 Louie died in Salt Lake City of a cerebral hemorrhage. May became general president of the Primary and served until 1939. May remained unmarried all her life and passed away in 1946 at Salt Lake City of arteriosclerosis.

Were Louie & May lovers? It depends on how one interprets the clues.

The ANS Members' Official Statement

Hello, this is ANS's Lina, J, Royeon, Dalyn, Raon, Bian, and Dami. All of the members aside from Haena. First of all, we apologize for the recent media reports that have raises concerns to the fans who love us. Fans may misunderstand or worry, so we're here to explain the situation we are in right now.

Firstly, all of the members except Haena have notified our legal representatives of the termination of our exclusive contract with our company on August 11th. We believe that the company and agency problems are related to Haena's and it is our duty to explain our truths to our fans, we're ashamed to tell you how it happened.

Our agency, ANS Entertainment, has retired almost all of its staff twice in the months of March and April, leaving us without staff or managers.

On June 14th, the office space was closed and our dorm was moved from Sinsa-dong to Gimpo, and we haven't even had practice since then. Since there are no staff or employees to work with scheduling or managing the online fanclub, we have to do our own staffing. Members have to travel by taxi since there is no staff to provide us with transportation.

As fans know, we had a fanmeeting on June 20th, so we made many big and small mistakes. The fanmeeting would have been a huge mess if it weren't for the retired employee who willingly came with us that day.

To add to that, we haven't been able to have dance or vocal lessons. All we had was 10,000 won per day per member for meals, but it wasn't paid on weekends either.

In fact, we didn't have support managers with us, and we asked our company if we could take dance lessons, but they didn't allow us since we didn't have any money.

It was too much to understand the company's difficulties during the recent Coronavirus, and we couldn't waste our time thinking about the fans waiting for us.

So we sent a letter to the company of July 22nd through our legal representatives, to increase the amount of managers, set up an office, a practice room, and for us to be able to take dance lessons, and take responsible measures within 14 days. Instead of taking responsibility, the company called one of the member's mothers saying the company was not at fault.

They used abusive language such as "We're making a list of members to remove so we can take only the best of ANS. The others are made of trash that can't do anything. They can't do anything because they're sitting home depressed." We couldn't handle it anymore so we terminated our contract on August 11th.

That's where Haena's problems came from. Coincidentally, right after we sent the letter to the company, that's when they started talking about Haena's problems and asked us to visit her at the hospital and the same article that was posted on Haena's instagram was reported in the media right after we sent a termination notice to our company.

In fact, we didn't even have a bad relationship with Haena.

Haena joined in December of 2019, and as the youngest, a sophomore in high school at the time, she had to go to school. And since the company had a lot of difficulties this year, we had less opportunities to work couldn't spend as much time together.

Haena couldn't go to school since she got tested for Coronavirus and her job is probably all we talked about with her.

Haena was tested on May 29th since we heard a confirmed carrier used the same PC room she went to, and fortunately, Haena tested negative and ordered another 3 days of self isolation by the health center.

By the way, we had no employees, so we had to process the school documents. We called Haena's homeroom teacher on June 8th and found that Haena was not present without notice even after the 3 days of isolation.

Haena's homeroom teacher knew that Haena was often absent due to work, and even the day she took a photo of her school diploma, she couldn't attend due to a company schedule even though there was no schedule that day.

So we called her to a cafe that day to talk about what happened with the teacher, and she didn't give us any exact answer and just said it was personal.

In response, we asked the members to never lie and talk to each other if there are any reasons, but we never cursed or scolded each other. In fact, this is the kind of management the company should do, but because the company didn't do anything, we had to manage Haena's school life.

The next day, Haena contacted one of the members and she wanted to discuss future activities with her parents due to mental problems. We respected Haena's opinion and asked her to let us know after talking to the company, but Haena did not respond to us.

On June 12th, she sent a message to two members saying "I'm sorry, I'm too tired mentally. I'll call you when I get better." That was Haena's last call.

Haena didn't attend the fanmeeting on June 20th, and we had a hard time changing the choreography.

After we sent our letter to the company, they told us to go to the hospital, saying that as if she went to the hospital because of us. We were scared that we couldn't contact Haena directly, but fortunately Haena returned home that same day without any problems.

Haena must've had a hard time mentally as ANS's future became uncertain due to the agency's problems, and she must've had financial difficulties since she didn't receive any financial support. We didn't have any bad feelings toward Haena then or now, and if she accepts our call, we would like to meet up with her to resolve any misunderstandings if there was any harm.

However, due to the problem we are unfortunately facing regarding our contract termination and the fact the company said such bad things about us earlier, we wonder if the company is using the problem to harm our contracts.

We've received so much love from you fans. We're so sorry that we caused you so much concern. We had no choice but to terminate our contracts with our agency, and no one knows what will happen in the future, and we feel like we're being left up in the air.

We may continue our entertainment activities, and we may work as a team. Please understand our situation that we had to terminate our contracts. If we're ever given another chance, we promise to see you again in better shape. Thank you for all this time.

-August 20th, 2020, ANS's Lina, J, Royeon, Dalyn, Raon, Bian, Dami

Christmas Chapter

To those that have been reading my story, I apologized for being so late with my recent works. I managed to finish the other two on Christmas and this one before New Years. So, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Nick’s POV

I walked into the kitchen to be greeted by a giant basket filled with pears and a box filled with pear based foods, like pie, cobbler, juice, even jelly beans, which Molly was stuffing herself with.

“Where did the pears come from?”

“Faye bought them!” Molly, mouth stuffed of jelly beans

“She did?”

“Both her and her father.” mom, who came from the next room. “Molly, leave some for the rest of us.”

I stared at the packages, uncertain about its products.

“Why pears?”

“Why don’t you ask?” mom asked playfully before walking into the kitchen.

The next day, I went to the Black Cat Cafe, carrying a bag. When I walked in, it was semi-busy, with many of the tables full.

“Hello Nick.” Mrs. McCalmont, from behind the counter.

“Hi, Mrs. McCalmont. Is Wil home?”

“No, she’s helping me with a delivery. Is something wrong?”

“Uh, no, um, here.” I handed her a bag of apples. “Mom says thanks for the pears.”

“Oh your welcome. Thank you.”

As she took the apples, I struggled to ask my question, even though it may sound rude.

“Uh, what are the pears for?”

“For the 12 Days of Christmas!” Faye jumped from behind the counter, surprising me.

“12 days of Christmas? As in the song?” I questioned “So, in the place of Christmas?”

“Oh no we celebrate Christmas. Think of it as a Christmas tradition. It gets everyone in the Christmas spirit.”

“Does everyone on Arcanos do it?” Looking around, making sure no one heard me.

“You can talk about Arcanos. There’s no rule about it not talking about it. Watch. ARCANOS!”

Everyone in the cafe turned to look at us.

“Faye, stop that.” scolded Mrs. McCalmont. “If it makes you feel better, we can go into the kitchen?”

I nodded and followed them into the cafe kitchen, where I saw stuff moving by itself. The food was cooking and wrapping themselves. I saw tiny fairies flying around the kitchen as well as multiple ovens and stoves, six at least. I could smell bread baking, chocolate melting and meat roasting.

“Wow.” I looked at the whole room in amazement. One of the fairies came up to him and landed on his shoulder. She looked at him curiously.

“I hope the fairies aren’t a health code violation.” I joked

“Those aren’t fairies. They’re pixies.” explained Faye “Fairies are much bigger.”

“I see.” I looked back at the kitchen. “It’s like Merlin’s spell from the Sword in the Stone.”

“It's something similar.” Mrs. McCalmont answered, putting the apples in the center table. “It makes work a bit easier.”

“So how does the 12 days of Christmas work?”

“Well, like the song, it lasts for 12 days, from the 12th to the 24th. For each day of Christmas, we gift that theme of the day. Like, a partridge in a pear tree.” she explained

“So, like you give out pear based presents?”

“Exactly. When I married my husband, we carried the tradition to his family, then decided to use it for the cafe as well.”

“Wow. So, if yesterday was pears, then today would be-”

“Doves!” exclaimed Faye

“Doves? Like turtle doves?”

“Uh-huh. Last year, my aunt gave me actual turtle doves.” she bragged

“Really?”

“No, she didn’t. Don’t tease him like that, or you won’t get any presents from Santa.” Mrs. McCalmont scolded

I chuckled to myself. Felicity is the same age as Faye, but doesn’t believe in Santa anymore. “You still believe in Santa?”

“Of course I do. Why should I not?”

“Because your getting older.”

“These pixies are real.” she pointed out. “So why shouldn’t Santa?”

She had me there. I glared at the pixie on my shoulder giggling at me.

“So for the second day, what should I give?”

“Why? You want to give my sister a gift?” Faye grinned “On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me…”

“What? No! I just saw Wil give something to Maddy today and yesterday. So, I was wondering, since its Christmas season.” For some reason, my cheeks were getting warm. Am I blushing? Why am I blushing?! Why does

“So what should I give her? And Maddy?”

“Well, the most common gifts would be turtle candies, dove chocolates, dove products or ornaments.” answered Mrs. McCalmont.

“That’s it?”

“Well, unless you have enough money to get her actual turtle doves…” she smirked “Oh, speaking of which…”

She went to the fridge and took out a paper bag. She gave it to me and I looked inside to see individually wrapped chocolate turtles inside.

“No one in your family is allergic to pecans right?” she gently asked

Christmas may be the time of generosity, but this is surprisingly generous.

Will’s POV

For the past couple of days, I’ve been getting presents. Not that it’s a bad thing. It’s Christmas season of course, but…

“Maybe you have your own Santa Claus?” questioned Maddy

We were walking through the downtown area of the town, in Arcanos. Like in Harry Potter, many of the lights and lighted ornaments were floating in mid-air.

I’ve been getting 12 days of christmas presents, but they aren’t from anyone I know. Why? Because I’ve been finding them, somehow in my locker. The same happened with Maddy, but the gifts were different.

On the 3rd day, she got 3 hen and chicks succulent plants, while I got French perfume. 4th day. She had a birdhouse, feeder, braille book and birdseed ornaments delivered to her house. I got cell phone accessories, including a diy phone case. 5th day. Five donuts were at Maddy’s desk. I got 5 rings, two hoops and a ring. 6th day. She got a recipe for eggnog, while I got chocolate creme eggs. By the 6th day, enough was enough.

“Like a Secret Santa? No way. Who would want to be secret Santas with me?” I questioned her

“Speaking of which, does Santa really exist in Arcanos?” she asked

“In a manner of speaking, yes. He’s more of a spirit now, than an actual person.”

“Wow, that’s amazing.”

“And you know those snow globes from the movie Rise of the Guardians? There’s actual snow globes like them?”

“Really? That’s so cool!” Maddy thought for a minute. “So you really don’t know who’s been giving you those gifts?”

“I have an idea.”

“Nick?”

And this is why she is my best friend.

“Yep.”

“Why?”

“Remember that bet we made on my birthday? He’s trying to romance me, like he does for Heather. I saw him giving her an “early” Christmas present. A plush reindeer.”

“So you aren’t upset that he’s courting you, even though he's dating Heather?”

“Not really. It’s not so bad.” I winked at her. “Plus, we're getting free stuff out of it right?”

“Hm. Good point. But are you going to get him something?”

“Oh, don’t worry. I got some ideas.” I grinned evilly

“Ooh, can I help? He gave me stuff too.” Maddy volunteered. I grinned.

“Hmmm, fair enough, alright. Come on, let’s come up with some ideas.”

On the 7th day, which was for swans, I left something in Nick’s locker, before quickly heading in the direction of mine. I turned the corner and waited until Nick came. Maddy stood next to me. After a few minutes, Nick came in with his group of friends.

“Is he here yet?”

“Yeah. Shh!”

We, well I, watched as Nick opened his locker, and a giant, white inflatable pool swan blew up in his locker. I used big magic to make it bigger. It bursted the door opened, surprising them and everyone else in the hallway. It kept growing and nearly filled the whole hallway. And here’s the best part. It fell right on top of Nick. I could barely contain myself.

“What happened?”

“It fell on top of him.”

Maddy started to chuckle too.

“Come on, let’s go.”

We hurried away to our lockers, then classes before anyone noticed.

Nick’s POV

I. Am going. To kill. Her. I don’t care what type of magic she used, I know she put that stupid swan in my locker. I even got in trouble with it. Twice! It made me late for class, since it took 15 minutes to deflate it.

What the hell?

I was trying to be nice and give her presents, and Maddy too, not because of that stupid bet, because its Christmas! Aren’t you supposed to give presents to each other on Christmas?

Fine. If she wants to be naughty, I’ll show her naughty. Ugh. That did not sound right.

Later that day, I watched Wil as she got closer to her locker.

“Uh, Nick?” I turned around to see Dylan. “What are you doing?”

“Shhh!”

I motioned him over, and we watched as Wil opened her locker and then- boof!

A small explosion of black power and black feathers covered Wil and some parts of Maddy!

“Wh-what the?”

“What happened?” asked Maddy

Me and Dylan quickly went behind the wall before we were spotted. We could barely contain our laughter.

“Holy Shit!” laughed Dylan

“How’s that for a black swan?”

“Are you out of your mind? You just pranked the Wicked Witch of Willow High.”

“I know. Just a little payback.” I turned to look at him. “Want to help me out with the next one?”

“Oh heck yes.”

The next few days continued as followed: on the 8th day, Wil got pelted with milk balloons, while Nick smelled like camebre cheese, after finding them in his pockets every five minutes. The 9th day, Nick’s locker was filled with ballet items, while Wil was scared by red dancing shoes. The 10th day, both found frogs and toads in their personal items. Wil in her book bag, Nick in his pants while in the bathroom. On the 11th day, Wil was scared by a sudden piercing from a recorder while in the bathroom, and the same goes for Nick while answering his phone. On the 12th day, Wil was woken by the sound of drums from metal rock, while Nick was kept up all night because of it.

Wil’s POV

“That’s it! No more pranks!” scolded Mom. I was keeping the pranks on Nick a secret from her, but she managed to find out. “It’s Christmas Eve! Now make up and give him a present as an apology and a sign of actual good will.”

“But mom,...” I didn’t want to, but… I really don’t want to.

“Do it or no Christmas.” threatened my dad

I groaned. Missing Christmas is one of the worst things that can happen to anyone. I know there are thousands of people who have no choice but to miss Christmas, but its not fair for me either.

“At least call a truce for Christmas.”

I sighed. “All right. No more pranks.”

“And give him a present he’ll like, nothing cheap!”

The night before Christmas, and all through the night. Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse. And it was freaking cold! I got Nick’s stupid present, but I couldn’t give it to him at school. I wanted to drop it off at his house and that’ll be it, but my parents would not accept it. Dad even threatened to call them on Christmas, just to make sure I gave him the present. So, I’m here on my broom, at his house, at night, in the freezing cold! I clutched the present closer to my chest, debating whether this a good or bad idea. Groaning, I lowered myself towards his room window.

Also, if you all are wondering how I knew where Nick’s home or even his room is, thank Dalia, due to her mischief.

I knocked on the window with the curtains closed.

“Nick!” I quietly yelled, to prevent anyone seeing me.

I didn’t hear any movement, but the lights were on.

“Nick!”

Nothing. I reached into my pocket, and took out a hag stone. A hag stone is a stone that has a natural hole inside them. Depending on how or where the stones were formed, by looking through the holes, you could see various things. The one I have is similar to the one in Coraline. So think of the had stone as x-ray vision goggles.

I looked through it and could see past the house walls. I saw Nick in his bed, sleeping.

I knocked on the window again.

“Nick!”

Seeing that he wasn’t waking up, I tapped the window lock twice.

“Tick tock. Break the lock.”

The window unlocked and opened itself, and I climbed in.

His room is surprisingly clean, for a high school boy. I saw him in his bed and walked over to wake him. His snoring is as loud as a high school boy. I shook him as hard as I could.

“Nick! Nick! Niiiccckkkk!”

After some groans, Nick managed to slowly open his eyes. His eyes widened quickly when he saw that I was in his room.

“Holy freaking crap!” he yelled as he scrambled away from me. I just smiled.

“Merry Christmas!” I smirked

“What are you doing in my house?! How’d you get into my house?!”

“Magic. Duh.”

“How’d you even know where I live?”

“Dalia. Duh. Anymore questions?”

He was silent for a moment, before asking, “What are you doing here?”

“Come outside.”

“It is freezing outside. And it’s Christmas Eve. If this is another prank, can it wait until morning?”

“It’s not a prank. My mom wants us to call a truce for Christmas, so truce?” I ask while holding out my hand.

Nick looked at my hand, suspicious and hesitating for a bit, before taking my hand.

“Fine, truce.”

“Good. Now come outside. I have a present for you.”

A few minutes later, we were both outside in the cold. After explaining that I got him a gift, it turns out he got me one too. Then we both stood there awkwardly for the next few minutes.

“So, want to open them now?” Nick asked

“Ehhh, it kind of goes against my tradition of opening presents before Christmas. You?”

“Not my tradition.”

He quickly went to open his present.

“Woah, a toy motorcycle. Cool.”

“Press the button.”

He looked confused.

I took the toy, pushed the button, then put it on the street and stepped back. Moments later, it quickly grew in size to a rideable size. The look on Nick’s face shows that I gave him the right gift.

“I heard from Felicity that you got your motorcycle license, so I got you this.”

Remember the boat from Ponyo? There’s a toy company in Arcanos that makes toys inspired by the film. Cost a lot, but not as much as a regular motorcycle.

“What do you think?”

The next thing I knew, he was hugging me. An actual, no hesitation hug.

“Thanks.” he whispered

Turns out, he was saving money for a motorcycle, but wasn’t close yet. With this, he doesn’t have to save anymore. But for some reason, he now didn’t want to give me my present. He tried to take it back, but after some tugging, I won. I decided to leave before he tries to take it again, but before I did, I showed him how to make it small again. Before I flew away, I watched Nick go back inside and shut the window I opened.

The next day, on Christmas, I opened Nick’s present first. It was a ugly Christmas sweater, with a witch in a Santa dress and hat, on a broom, with a bag of presents behind her, flying through the night sky. A ugly Christmas sweater that's witch themed. After opening the rest of my presents, it was the only thing I didn’t have anything to say about. But, I wore it on the first day back at school.

#finally #merry christmas #happy new year

please help me pay my dentist bills

i truly cannot say how much i hate to do this, and i have been postponing making this post for so long, because i was looking for other options, but i truly can't find any other way.

in october i went to a regular checkup with my dentist where it was found that i had some cavities i needed to get fixed. so i got a new appointment and came in to have those done. however, this dentist saw that some of the cavities were in wisdom teeth and it would make the most sense to have them pulled out now, because it was almost impossible to fix as they were so far behind in my mouth, plus if didn't pulled it could mean a bigger chance of cavities coming in the teeth next to them. so i went to have them pulled out about two weeks ago. this dentist recommended also having the two wisdom teeth left being pulled for the same reasons as the first two, and because with my age (30) it will only be harder for my mouth to heal the older i get, and the chance of infections grow with age. so i am going to have those pulled on december 11th.

but i am broke. i am super broke.

for those who don't follow me, or are new to following me; my name is annika and i am 30 years old. i live (in denmark) alone with my cat, and when i say that i don't have any friends i am not exaggerating. i rarely see my family, as my mom lives quite a bit away. my youngest sister lives in sweden, and my two other sisters lives in the same city as me but we speak maybe about once every three months. i genuinely don't have any people in my life.

i am without work and have been for about five years now due to mental illness. it's only in the past year that i have started truly getting treatment despite having been in the psychiatric system since i was a child. i struggle with a number of things; depression and anxiety, ocd and a personality disorder, and the latest is that i am waiting to start a neuropsychological assessment to see if i am on the autism spectrum. honestly, there's a lot of other baggage, ranging from child abuse to partner abuse, and generally just a lot that makes no sense to unpack here. i am open to questions, though.

i just wanted to paint a picture of why i simply am not in a position to pay these bills myself. i had been saving up for ages for a vacation that i have had to cancel, and i have also had to not buy christmas presents for my family this year. i don't smoke and i don't drink, i really don't have anything that i can cut back on to save money. i have considered skipping therapy sessions for a couple of months to save that money, but my mental health can't afford that.

i already paid the first 1000 danish kroner ($148/£115/€134) to cover the regular checkup in october and the cavity fillings. but i still need to pay for the pulling of the four wisdom teeth which is about 1600 danish kroner per tooth ($235/£184/€214).

so all in all i need about 6400 danish kroner ($948/£736/€856), and i really just don't know where to find that kind of money. this is more than twice as much as i have after paying bills every month.

the dentist have been very kind about letting me know that they don't expect me to pay the whole thing at once due to my situation, but there's a limit to how long i can pay it off without them having to send it on to collecting. as far as i understand the limit is a couple of months, but this amount will take me literally years to pay off. i barely scrape by as my financial situation is, and i just don't know what else to do than ask for help.

i can't draw or make videos, so i don't really have much to offer in return aside from pictures of my dumbass cat. i do make gifs so if you have anything you want to see, i would gladly take a shot at that as a thank you. my gifs can all be found here.

but i am at the end of my rope, and i have looked into every option, even applied for a health insurance (danish universal healthcare does not cover a long line of things, and dental + psychologists after turning 18 is not covered) and got declined because of my anxiety. so i would appreciate incredibly if you could donate even just a little bit, and if you don't have anything please reblog to spread the word.

★ PLEASE USE MY KO-FI THANK YOU ★

#userjl #dearindies #klaushaargreeves #i dont know anyone to tag #but please reblog #annika's adventures

Daily(ish) Updates

On Thursday March 28th, Rob went to the ER for stomach pains. He ended up being checked into a hospital in Corona and they did several tests including a bone marrow biopsy. They discovered that he had a low platelet count, high white blood cell count, and an enlarged spleen. He’s needed plasma transfusions to keep his platelet level up. On April 1st he was informed that he has Philadelphia chromosome positive (Ph+) B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and was transferred to UC Irvine Health.

April 3th

-Rob started chemotherapy. His medications for the first three days will be cyclophosphamide (chemotherapy) and mesna (chemoprotectant to reduce side effects).

-His parents visited him and said that the medication was administered through IV and can take 3 hours to finish the treatment.

April 4th

-Rob took dasatinib orally, which is another treament for ALL.

-His sons, Chris and Trey, visited him.

-Rob said he felt fine but the doctors said that the side effects of chemo are usually felt after 48 hours.

April 6th

-Rob had vincristine and doxorubicin through IV, which are used to treat a variety of cancers.

-He finished his first round of chemo and he said he felt weak but on the mend.

-He was able to take a walk around the floor.

-The doctors will now monitor his blood production and figure out the next steps in his treatment.

April 7th

-Even though his chemo ended yesterday, they gave him an extra chemo pill.

-He was feeling nauseous and didn’t eat or drink much.

-He was also tired because his bed moves constantly to prevent bed sores but that makes it hard for him to sleep.

-He maintained good blood pressure even when feeling sick, which usually doesn’t happen when he’s sick at home.

April 8th

-He had bad muscle spasms that moved from his back up to his chest. The doctors gave him an EKG and the results looked normal.

-He was able to take a walk today and was in less pain.

-He ate some food and received IV fluids due to dehydration.

-The doctor said he’ll go home in a few weeks and when he starts his next round of chemo it’ll be scheduled and they’ll have a bed ready for him at the hospital. Not sure if the future stay will be a month long like this current one. He is already on his second round of chemo. He will take dasatinib every day until remission since it’s seen as a maintenance drug.

April 11th

-Bob and Linda visited Rob and they said he was in good spirits. He’s still nauseous and vomiting.

-He received a blood transfusion rather than a plasma transfusion. A nurse said that at this stage it’s not unusual for him to get a blood transfusion every day. It is unsure whether or not the blood transfusion is needed due to his low platelet count or if his blood production is lowered due to the chemo. (I’ll ask Heather to ask the next time she visits.)

-Erica visited a couple days before and said he had a CT scan of his legs when she was visiting. They were looking for blood clots but luckily they didn’t see anything. Previously we thought he had a CT scan in his legs to check for blood clots but it was actually an ultrasound.

-He also had a CT scan while Bob and Linda were visiting. They scanned his lungs since he’s been congested but didn’t see anything. They didn’t seem too worried about blood clots but it was just a precaution.

April 12th

-Heather said he had a low fever and they had to wait for it to go away before he had his blood transfusion.

-He has a sore throat and lesions in his mouth and throat from the chemo. It has made it painful for him to swallow.

-He seemed more upbeat today.

April 13th

-He was pretty groggy today and was dozing off due to his fatigue.

-He gets blood transfusions because his hemoglobin levels are low. He has blood in his urine and stool so that’s probably why he needs blood transfusions. The doctors say this is from the chemo.

-He had another platelet transfusion today.

-He was given chemo today and yesterday. Heather isn’t sure what’s going on because when she spoke to the oncologist she was told that there would be a break in between rounds of chemo. She will try to speak to someone the next time she visits to get a clear answer.

-Rob was able to get out of bed and shower today and was in a pretty good mood.

April 14th

-He will have a new procedure done tomorrow to figure out what is causing his congestion. It’s called a flexible bronchoscopy with bronchoalveolar lavage. The bronchoscopy is a flexible tube that has a camera and lighting. The bronchoalveolar lavage is the process of flushing the lungs with saline and can be suctioned back through the tube. They may take biopsies which will be done with a little Pacman looking tool that can take chunks of the lung. If there is bleeding they will use argon plasma coagulation to cauterize any bleeds. He will be under twilight sleep during this process which means he’s anesthetized but still verbal.

-In preparation for this procedure, they gave him a platelet transfusion today and will give him another one in the morning.

-He is already on his second round of chemo. He will take dasatinib every day until remission since it’s seen as a maintenance drug. I was told there would be a break in between rounds of chemo but Rob confirmed that he’s on his second round.

-(Backstory: Rob has a habit of falling asleep on the couch and when he was woken up to move upstairs he would sit on the edge of the couch and rock back and forth while falling back asleep. It was hard for Heather to wake him up and he would occasionally fall forward.) So last night he started to do the same thing. He was getting ready to get out of bed and the bed has sensors that notified the staff that he was getting up. He had one foot on the floor and ended up leaning forward on the bed. The staff tried calling his name and nudging him awake but he didn’t respond. They ended up laying him on his back and shined lights in his face. He woke up at that point and was responsive but he said he barely remembered what happened. They gave him a brain CT without contrast because they were worried he had a stroke due to his confused state and how hard it was for them to wake him up. It came out negative.

-He can’t use his CPAP machine when sleeping because it hurts his lungs when his diaphragm expands.

-He’s noticed that it’s been easier to breathe as the chemo progresses because the cancer cells are leaving his body.

-He said he also gets blood transfusions because he’s bleeding internally and when he has bloody urine or stool it’s because the cancer cells are leaving his body.

-He said he has been feeling “dumpy” the past few days but he feels a lot better today.

-He has been on constant fluids since checking into the hospital but today they skipped it because he is now too hydrated to the point of having puffy skin.

-They’re keeping track of his electrolyte levels because it’s important that they stay in a good range.

-Previously we thought he had a CT scan in his legs to check for blood clots but it was actually an ultrasound.

-He has had a CT scan with contrast in his abdomen as well as twice for his chest once with contrast and once without. He has had a CT scan for his lungs. They’re searching for blood clots, lesions, or more cancer.

-The doctors are already talking about bone marrow transplant. Ideally, they would do it while he’s in remission. His parents, siblings, and children can get tested to see if they’re a match to donate bone marrow. His children are the best candidates because they’re younger and can bounce back quickly from the procedure. It seems like the testing would be a simple blood draw.

-He said that he hospital has decent food.

April 16th

-The bronchoscopy was yesterday and he was awake for the procedure. They took samples of the stuff found in his lung and tested it. Most likely, they are culturing it to figure out what it is. Then they flushed his lungs with liquid and sucked it back out of the tube.

-He has a coccidioidomycosis infection, also known as Valley Fever. It doesn’t look like it has spread. He will have to take antifungal medication twice a day. He thinks he may have had this infection for a long time, even before being admitted into the hospital. He has had slightly elevated levels of white blood cells when he would get blood work done and he thinks it could be due to this infection. And when the chemo was introduced, it gave the fungus the opportunity to thrive. The antifungal medication can mess with his blood sugar so it needs to be monitored.

-He has two doctors on his team. One is a specialist who works with patients undergoing chemo with cancer in their lymphatic system and how they fight infections. The other is an infection disease doctor.

-For the past 4-5 days he’s been having an injection that is supposed to help him produce red blood cells.

-He had a platelet transfusion yesterday. He now bruises easily.

-He also had a PICC line inserted when he was transferred to this hospital. It’s a catheter that is placed in a vein in his arm and it goes all the way into the large veins near his heart. It makes it easier for him to get his medications or to get his blood drawn.

-He has been stumbling with his words, which may be a side effect and he’s still nauseous. He has lost 15 pounds so far.

-His hair started to fall out today.

-He’s had 5 CT scans with contrast so far. The hospital he was originally at did too many of them in a row and it affected his kidneys. The doctors at his current hospital were worried about kidney failure so they have been watching his kidneys closely.

-He had a lot of good sleep and was able to use his CPAP machine last night. He had a lot of energy today. He was able to walk around the hospital floor as well.

April 21st

-Rob is now home!

-He had really good numbers (platelet, red blood cell, electrolyte count) and was given the okay to leave the hospital.

-He has thrush, which is causing lesions in his mouth and esophagus.

-He’s on oxygen and has to carry around an O2 tank.

-His next meeting with his doctor will be on the 26th.

April 26th

-Not too much has been happening since he’s been home.

-He’s been sleeping a lot.

-His appointment with his doctor today went well and they talked about next steps. He’ll need to get another bone marrow biopsy to see if he’ll need to check back into the hospital and start other chemotherapy treatments. It’s possible he could be in remission.

May 3rd

-He will be checking in tomorrow for another hospital stay. It is unclear how long he will stay there.

-He had the bone marrow biopsy done but he doesn’t know the results so we don’t know if he’s in remission. He needs to be in remission in order to get a bone marrow transplant. Otherwise, he will continue with chemotherapy until he’s in remission.

-His levels are borderline okay so he was still getting transfusions while he was at home.

-He has lost 50 pounds so far.

-Hopefully he can talk to his doctors today to get more information about what the next steps will be.

May 5th

-He has checked back into the hospital. He’s expected to only stay for a week this time. He’s on his “second round” of chemo. He’s been on one chemo pill throughout this entire process but now he’s on the second round of other types of chemo.

-Preliminary results show that he may be in remission. Further tests will be done to confirm the remission.

May 17th

-Updates are now being reported by Heather rather than Rob. He hasn’t been well enough to talk on the phone.

-He was discharged last Wednesday. He was supposed to be discharged on Tuesday but he still had high levels of his new chemo drug, methotrexate, in his system so they kept him for another day.

-He had diarrhea for several days after being discharged and on Friday, it was so bad that they went to the ER. But the wait there was between 4-12 hours and he eventually felt better so they just went home.

-He had labs done on Saturday as well as a platelet infusion. He also had a vitamin shot to help him produce more blood cells, I think it’s B12?

-He had a really bad sore throat on Sunday and it was so bad that he couldn’t take his evening pills.

-He’s nauseous today, which makes it hard for him to drink and eat.

-He has another lab appointment tomorrow and depending on the results he may also get another platelet infusion.

-He has lost 60 pounds so far.

-He has a doctor’s appointment on Thursday and hopefully he’ll have the results back from his bone marrow biopsy to confirm that he’s in remission.

May 20th

-The doctor said that he’s essentially in remission even if the test results haven’t come in yet to confirm he’s in remission on a molecular level.

-He will still have to finish his rounds of chemo even though he’s already in remission. He will have 6 more rounds done. If he doesn’t complete all 8 rounds of chemo then there’s a possibility for him to relapse. The bone marrow transplant isn’t enough to keep him in remission, it needs to be all 8 rounds of chemo plus the transplant.

-Since he’s in remission, they will start the bone marrow transplant process. They will need to talk to his insurance to see which hospital the transplant can be done in because sometimes UCI Medical Center can’t do it with certain insurances.

-The transplant can be done starting now until the end of his last round of chemo.

May 31st

-He will most likely check into the hospital next week for this third round of chemo. His hospital stay should only last a week.

-He’s still tired and nauseous but getting better. He has his color in his face back and isn’t relying on the oxygen tank as often.

June 3rd

-On June 1st, he had labs done and almost fainted while at the office. They gave him an infusion of fluids and labs came back showing his creatine levels have almost doubled since Saturday (May 29th). The high levels made them concerned about his kidneys and they told him to go to the ER. The ER told him he had a urinary tract infection.

-He was given IV antibiotics and was discharged the next day.

-He was supposed to start his third round of chemo today but since he's still on antibiotics they will postpone the treatment.

June 30th

-Rob went in for his 3rd round on June 18th and he check out about a week later.

-He had a 7 week gap between his 2nd and 3rd round of chemo and apparently that isn't good. It's supposed to be a 3 week gap in between and any longer than that could mean the chemotherapy won't be as effective. But he was pretty sick during those 7 weeks and they wanted him to feel better before he started chemo. So we believe the doctor's weren't assertive enough when telling him about this 3 week period even though he saw his doctors weekly.

-He is now at home but isn't feeling great after the 3rd round of chemo.

-His insurance won't cover the bone marrow transplant at the hospital he goes to so he will have to find another hospital that will qualify.

July 1st

-He is now on his fourth round of chemo. This one is an out patient procedure. He goes in to get his dose of chemo and then heads home afterwards rather than checking into a hospital for a week.

-He started feeling a lot better after several days of not feeling well at all. He got his appetite and his energy back but not sure how long it will last since he started his fourth round.

July 20th

-He started his fourth round of chemo yesterday. They originally thought the outpatient chemo was the fourth round but it was just remnants of the third round. He will finish it up in four days.

-City of Hope was chosen to be the transplant hospital and his sisters are being tests to see if they're match. If not, they'll look for a match on the registry and if that isn't successful then his sons will be tested. They are half matches so they're not ideal.

-He is officially in molecular remission based off of a test they did with his bone marrow biopsy.

-At the moment he isn't a good candidate because he is too weak. He will have to get his strength up in the next couple of months in order to get the bone marrow transplant.

August 4th

-He had trouble breathing so he was taken to a hospital in Anaheim via ambulance.

-He had a CT scan and was given antibiotics.

-They diagnosed him with pneumonia and transferred him to Foothill Regional Hospital in Tustin.

August 6th

-He was transferred to the ICU this morning.

-He didn't eat last night and didn't want to eat this morning either.

-He was disoriented and that worried the doctor so they gave him another CT scan.

-Heather is trying to get him transferred to the UCI Medical Center since that's where he's been getting his chemo and it's a bigger hospital.

Hi loves! My latest post is up #ontheblog Jen Finds Gems

New Post has been published on https://www.jenfindsgems.com/more-than-migraines/

Opening Up About my Health: More than Migraines

On October 11th the symptoms started. I went for a bike ride on a beautiful Sunday morning (feeling a little nauseous, but ready to power through it). It was pretty hot and I biked farther than usual so when I returned feeling more nauseous than before and a little “out of it”, I figured I was just dehydrated. I remember speaking to my sister and brother in law on the phone about an hour later and suddenly starting to feel a migraine come on. I figured if I just take it easy and drink some water with my usual migraine meds, it would pass quickly.

It didn’t.

On October 13th I visited my primary Doctor for my symptoms. My migraine was still present but I was feeling dizzy and nauseous. I knew something was wrong. I made the mistake of mentioning that I thought I had vertigo, and after doing a few manual tests (follow my finger, touch your nose, walk in a straight line, etc.) the Doctor said that’s what it sounds like so let’s treat it as vertigto. He preseribed me a anti-dizziness medication called Meclizine and told me that in order to recover and help with the dizziness, I should see a physical therapist.

What? A physical therapist? This won’t pass on it’s own? I have to see a physical therapist to help me walk “normal” again? How did this happen? How long am I going to feel this way? I had so many questions! I visited a physical therapist twice before I realized that there was a bigger problem that lied ahead. The therapist listened to my symptoms and concerns and ran a few tests on his own (the epley maneuver) and realized that this didn’t sound like vertigo at all. “I think we are dealing with something bigger here Jen,” he told me.

I kept that with me. Something bigger. Okay… but what? No one could give me answers.

I was a mess and everyday functions seemed difficult or damn near impossible. I couldn’t move too quickly. I couldn’t look around a room without getting pains. It had gotten to the point where just turning my head from one side to the other felt like the room was violently spinning and I was beginning to have double and blurred vision in my right eye. I couldn’t lay flat, sleep on my right side, or sleep in total darkness because that made the dizziness worse. I felt like I was free falling in the dark and of course that made me super nauseous.

Saturday morning I woke up ready to vomit and I almost fell to my feet. Walking was too difficult because I swayed from one side to the other and I had to run and grab a wall to hold. I fell to my knees and crawled to the bathroom, vomiting for hours. When my husband returned home (he went to drop the kids off at family’s house so he could take care of me) I was hugging the toilet, sweating and holding my head with my eyes closed. I didn’t know if I was having a stroke, a seizure, suffering from brain tumor, or an aneurysm. I was terrified.

That day Nick took me to the Emergency room. They drugged me up and ran countless tests from MRI’s, MRA’s, CT scans and heart evaluations. I was picked and prodded by nurses and Doctors and the on site Neurologist told me that my exams came back fine. He said there wasn’t any area of concern that he could find but he wanted me to follow up with ENT for a possible inner ear issue and then follow up with him for brain evaluations as this could have been linked to my migraines. He also prescribed a medication by the name of Topiramate which is an anti-seizure medication that is used to treat migraines.

After coming home from the hospital, covered in EKG tabs.

I have been suffering from migraines for over 20 years and they never presented themselves in this way. What was happening inside my body? Why now and why wasn’t anything showing up on the tests? I was confused and I was scared.

I was released from the hospital the next day, more confused and afraid than ever. I had no idea what was happening and what I was supposed to do from here. So this is it, I thought. This is how I’m going to feel forever.

As the days and weeks went on, I continued to do research, pray and research more. I made an appointment with an ENT Specialist that left me in tears because he said whether this is an inner ear issue or a migraine issue, it could take years to recover. Years? What the hell! I can barely walk without holding on to my husband or a wall, I can’t be in a bright room and too much noise or movement is over stimulation for me. Years?

That night I found two blogs that gave me relief- The Dizzy Cook and Jennifer of Migraine Strong. I read their stories and instantly felt closer to answers. They spoke about their experiences with vestibular migraines, dizziness and other symptoms, their road to recovery and their treatment plans. Every night I went back to their words. I studied their plans and their courses of action. I took notes of what they did and how it helped them. I looked up the books they recommended and the supplements they took and then… I found that Jen went to Dr. Danner in Tampa that specializes in migraines and neurology! He’s here in Tampa?! I HAVE TO SEE HIM!!

My first appointment with Dr. Danner was on November 4th. He listened to my concerns and helped me understand that what I was experiencing could have been an inner ear issue or be a migraine issue however regardless of which one it was, it would be treated in the same way. He encouraged me to follow a migraine elimination diet to help me find what my triggers are, start taking at least 500 mgs of a magnesium supplement everyday, keep taking my prevention medication, and follow up with him in a month.

I followed the elimination diet to a “T”. I fell in love with a book called “Heal Your Headache,” and I went down rabbit hole after rabbit hole of vestibular migraine research.

A few weeks went by my dizziness subsided but I started to notice that the migraine prevention medication that I was on was giving me adverse effects. I had crazy brain fog, to the point where I found it hard to hold conversations or keep a thought for longer than a few seconds. It made me crazy exhausted, depressed, and I lost about 20 lbs. It made my body feel cold (literally) and I felt frail and weak. The day before Thanksgiving I called Dr. Danner and asked if I should keep taking this medication or stop based on these symptoms and a numbness I started to feel in my right leg. After careful consideration, he recommended that I stop but continue the other migraine treatment plan and follow up with him at my next appointment (which was about a week and a half later).

When I had my follow up appointment, he asked me how I felt. By that time, the numbness in my right limbs had started to feel like a heaviness and my leg would sporadically “lock up”. My leg and arm would move (or not move) on their own and it started to worry me. Dr. Danner had his office staff call in an appointment for me with Dr. Sunil Reddy, an awesome Neurologist in Tampa that could take a deeper look to see if there were possibly any other neurological issues going on.

I have been going to my Neurologist and weekly physical therapy appointments since.

Today I experience less migraines and the spasms in my arms and legs are few and far between. These spasms are believed to be linked to Transverse Myelisits which is inflammation of the spinal cord. This was determined from a neck MRI that I had that showed some scarring on my spine. Sometimes Transverse Myelitis can progress to MS however sometimes it is a one time event that can heal on it’s own. After several brain MRI’s, my Neurologist does not see any lesions or scarring on my brain and does not see an area of concern there. My next order is to get an MRI of my spine and we will monitor and make an action plan based on the findings there.

I still have no idea what triggered all of this to occur and if they are linked in any way. Did my migraines progress into something more which caused these other symptoms and issues? Was something lying dormant and now decided to progress as I got older? How does your spinal cord even get inflammed? Is it something I did??

I’m still learning and I think that my greatest lesson is that I won’t always have the answers. But I know I’m not giving up, and all of this taught me that I’m more of a warrior than I realize!

I am writing this because I hope to help someone that may be going through something similar, just as Jen and “The Dizzy Cook” helped me. When all of this started to happen, all I could do was think of how much I wanted to write about my experiences for this reason. I wish that I could have given you a full synopsis of what I was experiencing in live time, but things progressed so quickly that I seldom had time to process them fully, or the energy or brain power to do so.

I’m sure I left out a lot of details. Like me crying every night wondering why this was happening. My husband having to physically hold me up to walk and take a shower because I was too dizzy to stand. The lack of confidence I had making eye contact with people, in fear that they would see my eyes darting from side to side or trying to focus. Wondering if people were whispering or thinking I was drunk when I stumbled to walk at my daughter’s Gymnastics class or my son’s Taekwondo class. Seeing more Doctor’s, nurses, emergency rooms and Specialists in the last 4 months that I have in the past 5 years. The time, money and MEDICAL BILLS I have racked up since this all started.

This journey has been humbling and frustrating, but I’m happy that I am stronger now than when I started.

I hope that this has helped you in some way and I look forward to sharing more of my journey with you here. If you haven’t already, please check out my blog post on my recommendations for dealing with migraines and follow me on IG for more health and wellness tips.

Stay encouraged and stay positive friends.

With love,

Jennifer.

technology is fun :P

I’m the tech person in the family. Always have been. I figured I was taken for granted a bit, but I save us money and I like working on tech, so oh well.

Now that I’m keeping myself and my parents away from the rest of the family for health reasons, they’re struggling.

Yesterday Charlie worked on getting the shop tablet to hook up to the contactless credit card reader for about 45 minutes in between doing tons of other stuff at the shop because it’s fairly busy. Nothing like it was before we closed, but busier than they’re used to because they usually come in to help on quiet days.

He kept texting me about it, and I just said keep doing the steps until it works.

Finally he video called me and was like NO SERIOUSLY HOW DO I GET THIS TO WORK?!!!

I took him through the steps for getting two devices to connect via Bluetooth 5 times. He kept growling at me about how we already did that we should try something different. I just kept walking him through the same steps in various order just to cover the bases. The fifth time it worked.

He let out this howl of rage and was like why did it work that time and not the other times?!!

I just shrugged and said that’s technology and you don’t usually see this part of it because none of you guys have patience with tech to the point where you won’t even sit around and watch ME working on things. I can do the same thing 10 times over and it doesn’t work, but the 11th time it’ll just work. Printers take twice as much time, and that’s why I hate printers so much.

He’s Not. Happy.

Oh and Carol isn’t speaking to me this week because she couldn’t find an ebook on her tablet after SHE downloaded it and I had the audacity to suggest she look for it herself since she’s doing absolutely nothing but eating Ding Dongs and reading ebooks and I’m working from home and taking care of my parents and doing a top to bottom major house cleaning.

Finally finished one of my girls. Here’s 15 very random facts about out of nowhere because I’m a dumb idiot who doesn’t know how to put it all together (I edited some from the previous post with her):

Best friends with Rosalya and Alexy. The first one she knows since middle school but got a deeper relationship only when both got into 11th grade (US/International); Alexy and Armin got into Sweet Amoris in the same year and quickly got friends with the Cailhol twins due to their similar sense of humour. She also maintains a warm friendship with Lysander.

Is dating Castiel since 17. They got their ups and downs, but there’s no break up whatsoever; actually, in five years they’ve grown up a lot as a couple becoming very supportive and genuinely fond of each other (despite their numerous flaws).

Has a great relationship with both of her siblings. All three being much of dorks, they’re always up to make crimes and do idioties all together.

Worries a lot about other people. A bit too much in fact, sometimes forgetting the sake of her own mental health, which turned against Noémie plenty of times, - though eventually learned to care a little more about herself when she got into University.

Good social skills. Can find an approach to most of people; also is one of the rarest persons to actually enjoy group projects.

Overflows with energy, optimism and dumb ideas. Noémie’s someone you can always call to steal some ice cream sandwiches from a corner store at 3 a.m. and she’ll run to you in the next minute.

Most of people either love her or hate her, almost never in between.

Often borrows clothes from... everyone around. She has a good dozen of Castiel’s T-shirts and hoodies (he eventually found a good side of it, no longer having to bear change clothes with him everytime he went for a sleepover in Noé’s house), some of Rosa’s and Hélène’s blouses and skirts and somewhere there’s an old Alexy’s vest. She just forgets to give them back to their owners, so if you don’t remind Noémie once or twice about, the clothes you gave will probably disappear in the black hole of her closet.

Adores stupid prints. Owls on shirts, lamas on socks, pineapples on undies...

Had a tatoo on her left shoulder for 17th birthday (Mei Ling and Violette’s design). She also later had 2 more on her right wrist, one paired with her twin and one reffering to all three siblings altogether.

Is REALLY into Tony Stark. One of Noémie’s room corners is dedicated to him, full filled with all kinds of merch.

Got a lot of stress and pressure at the end of the high school. Not knowing what she wants to do in her life, the early choice of her following studies led her to have constant meltdowns at the end of the year.*

The previous Sweet Amoris art teacher actually had a big impact on Noémie. Even after quitting the school, she continued to mentor the girl and helped her with future plans.

Went to Paris** for 1 year to study under her favourite artist, between 3rd and 4th year of Uni.

Ever since her childhood, being apart her twin was pretty hard for both of them, even though it arranged with growth. That was one of the reasons of doing matching tatoos, as a reminder for each other. They in fact love the whole “matching” idea, having lots of accessories that relate to one or another of them, such as bracelets, rings or neckalces.

Cat mom.

* - In my HC, the story is settled in France, so I take the french studies program and my own experience there as a reference (the schoolers have to choose their future studies in January-March of the last HS year). ** - Also in my HC, for several (personal) reasons the MCL town is settled in South, somewhere around Bordeaux (just....because...I...love Bordeaux.........;; And it’s not far from the sea/ocean).

#MCL #MCLUL #MCLHSL #MCL OC #OC #Noémie Cailhol #My art #Owl Shae draws #Here's still mistakes I'm sorry;;#I'll give it a new read in the afternoon
