Birthday Spotlight - Caleb Crawford
[9th April - Aries]
(Note, some of this information hasn't yet been posted on AO3, but has been written into Underline the Red!)
Caleb Crawford, an Indian-Australian alpha who works at Hillview as an alpha companion, is known for being the alpha that blows beta Faber Castle's mind during an ill-negotiated one-night-stand sex marathon that ends with Faber sore from overuse with a bad case of unrequited love, and Caleb uncertain why Faber rejected his offer to see each other again.
Caleb is a bold, well-educated, intense, and occasionally overbearing with his partners. He is most respectful to omegas and alphas, and displays some beta bigotry which is common among alphas and omegas in particular.
'I don't think you should be alone today. Just saying, when someone dicks you down as well as I just did, maybe someone should be looking out for you.'
Underline the Red
Underline the Black - Caleb first appeared as one of the alpha companions who is supervised by Dr Gary Konowalous. We first meet him via a supervision session between the two of them, and then later again when they share a conversation about his omega, Lucien, being ready to graduate, and Caleb admitting it will take some time for him to recover from the bond being broken.
Underline the Red - Also his main appearance, Caleb steals Faber's heart after a one night stand. They don't talk nearly enough, so Faber doesn't know that Caleb's doing an interview at Hillview to become a companion until the following day, at which point his heart is broken, and Caleb is shocked and horrified.
Over time, Caleb proves himself to be a competent omega companion who is still pursuing his PhD on Omega Studies, and despite Faber's best efforts, they keep being drawn into each other's orbits, time not soothing any wounds between them.
Small for an alpha, Caleb is Efnisien's height. He has medium-brown skin, and straight dark brown hair worn in a quiff. His hair is well-maintained and styled, and he cares a great deal for fashion. He has sharp, golden eyes, and wears thin gold-rimmed glasses, as well as button-up shirts and business shirts. He likes wearing bright colours with a dark ensemble.
30 years old.
Caleb's scent is earthy and clove-like, with glittery spikes that feel almost like poprocks.
It's joked that Caleb is arrogant enough and bold enough to be more like a peak alpha than an alpha.
Unlike many of other, softer-natured alphas at Hillview, Caleb is uniquely suited to a specific kind of jealous or possessive omega that is often at risk of murdering other omegas out of jealousy. As a result his cottage is kept more separate than the average cottage, to keep his omegas as far from other omegas as possible.
Caleb learns the skill of domestic discipline to deal with his latest omega, Lucien Beaumont, and ends up in the world of BDSM as a result.
Definitely most memorable for absolutely destroying Faber's ass and being cheerfully confident about it in a sex marathon that ends in Faber falling in love and Caleb developing enough feelings to be willing to not go to the Hillview interview to keep seeing Faber.
While it hasn't been mentioned yet, Caleb cares about fashion so much that he knew who Alois Flitmouse was before anyone else at Hillview, because he knew of his fashion and clothing and role as a Perth fashion icon.
Caleb's father is a well-known secondary gender-sex academic, and Caleb initially wanted to follow in the footsteps of his father and become a professor. He landed in Omega Studies and decided to interview for Hillview after a tour of the facilities for his doctorate. He paused his PhD as a result, and often continues to work on his PhD between omegas.
Despite Caleb's bold, arrogant, and sometimes crass nature, he is extremely thoughtful, calculating, and insightful. He often sees far more than he lets on, and he has one night stands to relax his over-active, busy mind.
I was always scared that Caleb and Faber wouldn't be strong enough to carry their own narrative, and started writing Underline the Red really scared of how it would turn out. As I wrote it though, I realised these two were a powderkeg that were ready to ignite over and over again. I can't wait for the journey these two are on. In some ways, it will be much bigger than the other journeys. For a start, some of the story will take place in another country!
You're the best thing in this town and you don't even live here. Maybe we'll see each other again one day.

What is a Monday? A miserable little pile of obligations.
semester turnover restructure
generate/send out error reporting
figure out how to separate out unique counts
create polite reply to Massive Dick Move email
finish the bad book >:(
bò kho (not an obligation. dinner)
laundry
lizard bath
#yapping tag#I spent my weekend trying to sleep and now all my chores are due today and I wanna complain. grump grump grump whine.#the semester turnover restructure actually is a pet project so that part I like! I wish I could take my time with it though#the error reporting is. well it's easy to generate (it's actually running now) and it's tedious but uncomplicated to send out#but then I'm going to spend the rest of the day getting passive-aggressive responses from everybody#in a just world my coworkers would respond to careful itemized lists of all their fuckups with 'thank you Alexis you're so helpful#we really appreciate you flagging our mistakes two weeks before the system final-saves them forever into stone. have a cookie!'#but alas#if I'd been any less stressed and frantic when I first established the error reporting I'd have set up a separate address to send them from#write up some template emails and let the reporting all come out of the mythical 'automatic system thing'#--every 'automatic system thing' in our college is me or IT on my behalf. even the people who hired me for this don't seem to realize#if only I'd known from the beginning that nobody would ever connect me and my systems! I'd be exploiting the shit out of it--#the unique counts is going to be a headache. no idea how I'm going to structure the coding for it. might be fun to invent? we'll see#the Massive Dick Move email response also will be an invention. 'hello Mr Massive Dick I am karma here to smite you' but polite#the bad book >:( I don't want to read any more of but the deal I made with my friend is he sends me free books and I report back#we did not discuss a special 'get out of book free' card for when the main character is a godawful shit sibling. (should've done though)#beef stew is good! mostly it's on the list so I don't forget to set the timers#laundry and lizard bath can wait until tomorrow if they must but they shouldn't wait any longer than that. lizard and I will get stinky

#diana's music diary#🌕#Very very tired today... I managed to sleep maybe 4 hours last night and then I had a 2 hour nap today...#You'd think only getting one hour yesterday would mean I could get a little more than that but.....#My brain really hasn't been working the last couple of days...#I hope that gets better but I'm getting the feeling something is seriously wrong with me... Trying not to panic about it though..#Still waiting to get my blood tested but they're making me do it next month even though I feel like I'm dying now nn;#Hopefully tomorrow I can at least get something to help me sleep more...#Not got any plans for today other than to try and rest... And to try not to freak out too much about all the health issues...#Anyway..... This song has been my latest obsession hehe.. Had it on repeat since it came out#I rewatched Madoka Magica with some friends the other day too... It was their first time seeing it which was fun hehe..#Might have a nap soon if I can... I doubt it but we'll see nn;#Let's try and survive today...

Put the last mushies on the rack to fire (still waiting on a few more pieces), then spent the whole studio time getting what I do have bisqued cleaned up and waxed and ready to apply slip and glaze. I did (mostly) decide what to do so I just have to follow my notes.
#arting#pottery#still waiting on the paten plates the two brown cups and the two spoon rests too#and those two cups and the potential bird bath#though a lot of people said pie dish#so uh#that one might stay with me as a pie dish but we'll see#those plates are from the december kiln#they didnt fit#so i washed the glaze off and im hoping to just stack them#but if they dont get in again whatEVER#i mean i would really love for them to get fired but we'll see#i did request the day off when we start loading#so im hoping to actually help out a bit and get to see the process#since i didnt get to last time#like ive loaded a lot of bisque kilns and a few glaze kilns#but this will be different#ANYWAYS im excited and im hoping to get a chunk of this slipped and glazed this week#but i have plenty of time#also that naked drink is a protein thing and it was AWFUL negative two stars

Books of 2024: DESERT CREATURES by Kay Chronister.
Up next! I'm heading back into my Driscoll revision project next month, WHICH MEANS: I can start reading through my Driscoll-vibes TBR shelf again!! I have been promised weird desert body horror (with a side of cannibalism? yikes?), and I'm excited to see how this goes.
#books#book photography#books of 2024#desert creatures#kay chronister#driscoll#in btw#oooh ouch i haven't typed that in a while in tags huh#wild#anyway i actually saw this book when it was still hardback and it made me think of another writer friend's WIP#(she was looking for comp titles and it seemed maybe close)#so she read it and said Close But Not Quite#and SHE told me about the delightful body horror and the borderline cannibalism lmao#(she doesn't usually read weird shit so. we'll see.)#i had to wait for paperback though#i don't usually try untested hardbacks on impulse#unless i 1) have no choice (book never had paperback release)#or 2) have vibed hard with the author previously#this one i waited for lol#i might take a Driscoll Adjacent TBR micropic tbh#technically OUT OF THE WOODS was on that lineup too#passages resonated with what i needed but overall. hm. no.#the rest of the driscoll TBR is more targeted though#might save vandermeer for closer to nano (it has driscoll/nano crossover potential because Fungus)#ANYWAY: EXCITED

Kink stuff
The past few months low key interest in topping and very person-specific dominance has escalated into a fully blown obsession like I catch myself planning out sadism scenarios with people I've not yet made any proper negotiations or agreements with. I'm having dom-crushes on people. I actively look for things to scratch that itch with since I don't have any active subs. Cmon.
#bluh bluh#Kink tag#This shouldn't be surprising but it's a little annoying#The boy and I are actively negotiating about this and I've approached my side of the agreement and now I'm waiting for#him to meet my baseline requirement#It's frustrating because he's like you could always suggest this more!#and I'm like I can't make more offers if I don't know you'll be responsive to them because it's really sucking any authority I still have#out of me that you're continuously rejecting my suggestions like that's not helpful for either of us if the aim is that you submit to me#I want to do this for me that's kind of the point I can't keep throwing you balls if you're not ready to receive even the easy ones#So idk but he's got homework to do his half these two weeks that I'm gone#And then we have a scene set for a party in september#We'll see about the rest#Anyway if you know a sub looking for a dom in the Stockholm area I'm all ears#I'm mostly interested in protocol discipline and pain and would be very keen on a sub willing to serve as my guinea pig to practice on

Song of the Day: May 3
"Life Less Frightening" by Rise Against
#song of the day#'I don't ask for much / truth be told I'd settle / for a life less frightening'#another song that when I sing it alone it doesn't sound much like the original but I do so like to sing it#check me stirring my roux humming 'these lives we live test negative for happiness' sweetly to myself#today was Friday and I'm still trying to decide if I'm satisfied with the amount of work I got done this week#I suppose I'll have to be#I had my weekly report meeting and again the updates my boss asked for in the meeting were not the ones she asked me to prepare#so I split-screened her and delivered the prepared updates as I frantically opened and updated the new request#and then when she finished making politely falsely interested sounds (I'm not bitter I'm not I'm not) she asked again for the new update#and by then I had it ready! saved it as I brought up the share-screen and showed it to her#too frustrated in the moment to be properly proud of myself but now it's hours later and I'm feeling a little smug about it#little back-pats for me#I have something like a project timeline worked out for the idiot project#and I did some good work in the garden (nasturtium growing up the post under the bird feeder. very pleased it took the transplant so well)#and I sooooort of sorted the freezer stuff. kind of. mostly we ate the things I wanted to rearrange but I've got a plan for moving forward#the last non-work thing I'd really wanted to accomplish this week was getting my queue set up again here#I've gone through my drafts and done some prep but as you can see the queue isn't actually running again yet#hopefully I'll do that tomorrow. we'll see how it goes#the queue may have to wait until Sunday because I must confess if I can accomplish only one single solitary thing tomorrow#I would like it to be six hours of uninterrupted sleep. may it please the gods I shall rest tomorrow. blessed weekend#edit: wait wait I'm a fool I'm a fool I just typed 'May 3' and still I am a fool#it's May the Fourth!!#happy star wars day my loves if I don't get the queue up today after all#it's because I'm reshuffling everything because I've got a new influx of SW posts to distribute!!

Month 4, day 17, I've officially decided the cloak is going to be Judicious and I don't know why I tried deluding myself that it was going to be anything else considering the base color I chose to represent the cloak XD The pattern is just hastily scribbled in; I figure if I want to go back and refine this whole piece later to be more accurate to everything in it, I can, I just needed to get the basic idea of the cloak down here.
#the great artscapade of 2023#art#my art#forspoken fanart#forspoken#frey holland#forspoken cuff#avoalet#in a complete 180 from last night instead of eating too much too fast tonight I have not eaten at all lol oops#also I realized that I'm super good at following through on what I say I'm going to do#and have TOTALLY been bombarding y'all with screenshots since yesterday :P#(I have not that is sarcasm)#don't get me wrong I will eventually get back to photo mode spam#just not tonight#hell it might have to wait for me to finish going through the rest of the map#and the post-game story#it's another case of ''I might be burnt out on this'' unfortunately#idk yet we'll see
