if you see this, and you're about to sleep (like me), i hope we both get a good rest and our f/os visits us in our dreams ᰔᩚ

if you're just starting your day, good luck and i hope your day will be good and filled with positive things coming straight to your way ᰔᩚ

and if you're in the middle of your day, i hope you're given strength to tackle the remaining hours before you can kick back and relax ᰔᩚ

okay so!! here’s a cute forcebook story for the five people who might care lmao

today book attended an event by himself. lots of fans showed up to support him, he was v excited!!! but also understandably nervous

at one point he asked fans to photoshop force next to him because he “feels more secure with force around” 🥺🥺🥺

of course people did as he asked. and then force posted this edit to show book that he was there supporting him

and book replied to force with, “just you and me, i feel at home” he’s so akdkkskdks 🥰🥰🥰

they really are each other’s safe zones ❤️

there's this idea that to be a better writer you need to write.

and yeah, that's true. but to be a better writer is also to be a lover. an observant lover, really. you need to be able to pay attention to everyone and everything and take note of the specifics. the way nature carries on with or without human intervention; squirrels running across power lines, deer with one hoof over highway barricades. the way emotion consumes a person's entire face; wrinkles at the corner of their eyes when they smile, the way they continue to shake after a bout of laughter. your grammar can suck and your pacing can be just as bad but that can be fixed with repetition. what cannot be fixed is a lack of integrity. you cannot fake being a lover. and even those who do not think they have it in them, who find themselves on the other side of the road, can still bring their own unique stories to the table. signed, an aroace loverboy.

Solo Victory Noah AU, where Noah is in Team Victory, instead of DJ... Noah later ends up becoming the final Team Victory Contestant... Alejandro keeps trying to sabotage Noah, but Noah always outsmarts all the sabotages... Noah ends up in the Final 3, with Alejandro and Heather... Owen is super-duper proud of Noah! 🏆

I've actually been toying with an AU where Noah ends up on Victory instead of CIRRRRH, watches what's happening to his team with thinly veiled annoyance, eventually grows sick and tired of sleeping in Economy (he's not at all concerned for the people he's watched be manipulated and/or his own position in the competition, why do you ask?) and manages to make it to the merge through the power of sheer spite despite being a one-man-team.

It's... not a very fleshed out idea, mind you, and I usually only ponder over it to make myself laugh at different scenarios where Alejandro is desperately trying to get Noah- the surprise one man army that no one saw coming- eliminated, and Noah managing to either outplay him at his own game or twist the circumstances to his favour in a very Looney Tunes-like fashion.

Because Alejandro would see the continued existence of Team Victory as a personal slight, so he'd put an increasing amount of time and effort into getting Noah eliminated if only to prove that he can. And Noah's just smart enough and finally motivated enough (initially by spite, turned vengeance, turned pure amusement) to spin Alejandro's schemes on their head every time. They're literally the Road Runner and Wile. E. Coyote.

It usually ends up with Team Chris or Team Amazon heading to an elimination ceremony, only for it to be a "surprise reward challenge" or something similar.

(Of course, they'd go through a "Alejandro tries to sweet talk Noah into an alliance" stage, like Alejandro does with DJ in canon, but Noah's switched on to Alejandro's true colours since he's literally watched him eliminate the rest of his team. Maybe Noah plays into Heather's offered alliance instead? Again, I haven't really thought too much on this silly AU.

After Chris doesn't allow Noah to join Team CIRRRRH, and Noah himself refuses Alejandro's offered alliance, it turns into Alejandro driving himself crazy trying and failing to eliminate Noah.)

The main draw of the idea, for me at least, is Noah not making it to the final three though. Because (in my mind) Noah doesn't even really want to be back in the competition- he just kind of went along with the crowd for the Celeb Manhunt bus chase, and inadvertently bagged himself a spot on World Tour. He's under no delusions that he'll ever win the million, but floating his way to the merge would at least make up for the embarrassment of being voted out first from the Gophers his short run in Island.

So he makes it to the merge after playing a glorified game of cat-and-mouse (Tom and Jerry Style) with Alejandro. He's got a hypercompetent Archvillain gunning for his elimination, and now that the teams are null and void, alliances are the name of the game. So what does Noah do?

He gets himself eliminated, just to take the satisfaction of doing so away from Alejandro. Probably through a technicality or something too, like Izzy's departure from the competition, to save himself the shame effort of jumping out of the jet.

That's mostly because I really like the idea of Noah reaching the merge, thinking "I've reached the goal I've set for myself. Might as well quit whilst I'm ahead!" and just-

Leaving.

(Which is ironic, because he's spent the last ~8 challenges actually trying to remain in the competition, and now he's just. Giving up. Drawing a line in the sand. "This is as far as I go.")

It's a shame that the London challenge happens pre-merge, because the idea of Duncan being forced back into the competition and the jet taking off before anyone realises that they're missing Noah- who snuck away into the city and is having a great time using Chris' debit card (of which he memorised during his time as Chris' assistant) to live it up bourgeoisie style in London- is fuelling me.

Realistically though, he'd probably sneak off in China during the eating challenge- because why would he stick around when Owen's gone? It wouldn't be hard for him to throw the eating challenge at the first round and then just. Not sit as the loser's table. Maybe he knows enough Mandarin to get by, and manages to stowaway himself back home to his family and beloved golden lab.

Meanwhile, Alejandro is seething.

Owen is really proud of his little buddy for making the merge, and a little disappointed in Noah for 'giving up', but when Noah expresses that he didn't have anything to stay for after Owen's departure, his disappointment turns to sentimentality.

heard some people saying that hayley atwell's character grace is being set up to be the next ethan hunt and carry on the mission impossible series, and my first thought was "well, she definitely looks just as good in a suit."

ok so lately i've been just telling people that i'm in grad school working three jobs because it's easier than explaining in detail but that makes it sound worse than it is but also it is pretty bad tbh. a reason (among others) i am not really on here unless i have Something To Say atm. anyway here's what my whole deal is rn.

i am technically a full-time master's student and the majority of my income is student loan money. my full-time student status is made up by a combination of below items.

my first "job" is 30 hrs/week of field work. this is a day job 4 days a week, monday - thursday, with extended evening hours on tuesdays. this job is not paid but i have been granted a stipend of $200/month with a completion bonus of $2k in april. i have to write 2 major papers and a monthly reflection/summary.

my field work also includes a state training program that is mostly completed within the hours of the first job but does include a mandatory coaching call every other friday from 9am-10am. this was not required for my degree but it will look excellent on my resumé. it has another small stipend but that's paid out halfway through and at the end.

i do also take (remote) classes. i have one class which is directly tied to the first job, which is 1-2 monday nights a month. i am required to do a presentation in this class. my other class is one wednesday evening a month revolving around its own field work and including 1 presentation and 2 major assignments.

my second "job" is the volunteer gig required for my degree tied to the second class. i have a total hours requirement--currently i am working 3 hours a week on monday evenings (2 hours on the mondays i have class) and an extra 4 hours one friday afternoon/evening a month. i have to write a monthly reflection in addition to the class assignments.

my third job is an actual job that pays money because i don't have any. i work at a dispensary for $19/hr, mostly afternoon-night shifts on fridays and weekends (& maybe some wednesday evenings i don't have class), adding up to about 15-20 hours/week.

on top of all that I joined a writing group to have something just for me, which i love but it meets on thursday evenings, with two saturday afternoon workshops a month. it is all optional and i don't have to show every week but it is very good for me so i should

i know i already put all the papers/assignments in with their respective jobs/classes but i do not think i'm going to be completing them all during working/class hours. i could do that last year but this year i have a lot more actual work to do during working hours.

also i have a dog and two cats and an apartment to take care of, and a fiancée i want to spend time with/take care of, and family i need to check on/take care of, and theoretically even friends?
