oh yeah btw this should surprise nobody but i was diagnosed with autism yesterday

[wishingtobehere]

hello all!

this is going to be my pinned post with a little information about this account

My name is August (or Auggie/Aug), I’m 21, and I’m a writer. My primary fandom is The Mysterious Benedict Society and this is a sideblog to avoid flooding my MBS friends with House in the Cerulean Sea content. My main blog is @mysteriouseggsbenedict which has MBS content as well as personal/life ramblings

My ao3 is @.thegreatkatewritingmachine and that is where any Cerulean Sea fics I write will end up!

I use they/she pronouns and I’m asexual and greyromantic. I have been out for about a year and love being a part of the queer community, so I’m also totally down to connect with people about that!

The fics I write are teen rated at most (there will be kissing and feelings, but nothing more). I don’t write smut or anything explicit, and the only ship I will be writing for this fandom is arthur/linus. I’m not sure if this is an issue in this fandom but I don’t want to see any underage or sibling ships. 

I don’t write for commission or request unless I ask for it, like ask games that have people submit prompts, that kind of thing. 

I use the tag “augswriting” for my writing and “thoughtsofaug” for any random posts unrelated to cerulean sea, although I probably will keep most of those posts to my main account anyway. 

Some fun things about me:

I’m an English student who most enjoys research papers about my interests, poetry, and creative writing.

I live in the pacific northwest and like going for walks, hikes, and (of course) trips to the beach

I really like historical fashion! I like researching and learning about it in my spare time and I’ve done some writing on it. Shopping for and wearing vintage-inspired clothes is also super fun for me. 

My favorite foods are pad thai, cheesecake, banana-flavored things (banana bread, banana pancakes, banana ice cream....) and iced chai tea lattes

My favorite books as a kid were The Mysterious Benedict Society (and still is as an adult whoops), the Magic Treehouse series, and the American Girl series (Molly and Kit were my favorites!)

alright that’s probably a long enough post for now! hi to everyone in this fandom!

Also sorry to anyone who has missed my mbs content on here. I still love mbs, but I got a new hyperfixation in July, and most of my leisure time has been spent on that. So that's why I haven't been posting new fic. But mbs is still dear to me and i will read your fics and reblog posts as they come up<3

Checklist for good media:

has a train

has a weird but kind old man who is a mentor figure

time period is either ambiguous or explicitly historical

romance is not the central point unless it's gay then it can have a pass

there is some sort of mystery or things the protagonists need to discover

found family

i have been bonked so many times

Hello! I've created a new sideblog for Ted Lasso! It will focus on Ted/Rebecca ship content. Follow @pinkboxess if you're interested <3

[mysteriouseggsbenedict]

my brain is like the brain in Inside Out where there are 5 different little people and one of those people is the dominant one, except instead of emotions i have hyperfixations, and right now ted lasso is the dominant one instead of mbs so that is why i have been posting less mbs stuff. my deepest apologies. i do not control the little brain people.

tumblr, the website for autistic people: hey let's change where everything is located so it's unfamiliar and jarring

[mysteriouseggsbenedict]

i literally have been barely using tumblr because the new update makes me feel so unsettled

[mysteriouseggsbenedict]

i love you weighted blanket i love you stuffed animals i love you noise machine i love you soft clothing

[mysteriouseggsbenedict]

it always surprises me when people are like "i went for a walk and now i'm far away from home and i'm thirsty" or "i'm hungry at [location away from home] but no snacks" because i genuinely forget everyone else can leave their house without packing food and water without having intense anxiety about it

[mysteriouseggsbenedict]

release your inhibitions

feel the grapes on your skin

[mysteriouseggsbenedict]

feeling extra in need of comfort :((

ranking the treats i got for easter

cookies and cream hershey's chocolate bunny: 10/10. i love cookies and cream chocolate. my mom knows what i like<3

egg-shaped peanut butter m&ms: 9/10. these are better than peanut m&ms. has to be butter. no crunch. just smooth. loses a point because they all came out of the eggs in the mail so they were just loose in the basked.

reese's eggs: 9/10 a classic and good but sometimes the peanut butter flavor is really strong and causes this like. almost burning sensation. i mean not actually burning idk how to describe it. idk. i like these!

hershey's white chocolate eggs with like rainbow confetti or something in it: 8/10, good but sort of lacking flavor

milk chocolate hershey's kisses: 6/10 good and nothing wrong with them but boring

kit kats with easter packaging: 5/10 kit kats aren't my favorite candy and the actual candy wasn't any different for easter it was just the wrapper was pastel colored with a bunny on it

[mysteriouseggsbenedict]

where are all my "insecure and anxious around bedtime" bitches like you'll be doing good during the day but when it's nearing bedtime you start feeling anxious that you won't sleep well and wishing you had someone to sit with you and cuddle or just be there so you aren't all by yourself to sleep

dream house

walk-in closet

nice bathroom attached to my bedroom with natural light, one of those showers where it's not a bathtub with a shower head, like the whole thing is shower you know, and glass door and hose nozzle

swing inside the house or like one of those hanging egg swing things

room for exercise like big open space with mats and treadmill so i can have enrichment in the enclosure

warm tones throughout the house in the woods and wall colors. no gray and white everything for me.

dedicated office with a writing/work desk and bookshelves

hot tub and heated pool. maybe like an indoor/outdoor pool like some of it is inside for winter and there's also an outdoor section.

outdoor porch kinda thing for hanging out in the summer. comfy seating outside

vintage style decor of course

pinks and purples and greens and browns primarily

tbh i don't have super strong feelings about the kitchen just like enough counter space and storage, fridge with a water and ice dispenser, dishwasher, sink, idk the basics as long as it's not ugly and it's functional

i do want a nice TV setup for shows like probably a sort of hangout room where the swing and the TV and other fun stuff are

something just to be wild like a fucking. i don't even know. it's a dream house so whatever i want, right? trampoline room or something. zipline through the living room. random room painted bright pink.
