okay i have to post here because i don't wanna forget but i also don't wanna post progress stuff on bookreads. im reading cider house rules by john irving and there's this bit about an older orphan boy having spent the night with his ear against the belly of a lonely pregnant woman who wanted someone to want her baby. he tells another orphan about that and how he sometimes wonders if he'd recognise the baby among all the others, and when his friend makes fun, this follows:
But Homer Wells knew he was just playing a game by himself, with himself; orphans are notorious for interior games. For example, one of the oldest games that orphans play is imagining that their parents want them back-that their parents are looking for them. But Homer had spent an evening with the mystery baby's mother; he'd heard all about the mystery baby's father-and his lack of interest in the matter. Homer knew that the mystery baby's parents weren 't looking for her; that may have been why he decided he'd look for her. If that baby girl was growing up, and if she was playing the old orphans' game, wouldn't it be better if there was at least someone who was looking for her-even if it was just another orphan?
this bit had me suddenly burst into tears out of nowhere. i have no personal experience with this but man this paragraph just hit me like a ton of bricks

May I ask where you got the audio for the ‘Mock Turtle from another room’ sound from? :o it sounds lovely and I’m curious about the unedited audio ^^
Of course !
It's originally from the 1999 Hallmark TV Movie of Alice In Wonderland; the original audio is on Youtube and is Gene Wilder singing as the mock turtle with the gryphon who I BELIEVE was voiced by Donald Sinden which is the secondary voice you hear!
As for the Audio itself, I think all I did was add a slight reverb, a compression of wet sound, and then an equaliser? Im not sure but it's all muscle memory anyway these days !

That's exactly what I did with the first part of Happy Birthday 😂 I'd written just under 1000 words and ended up deleting almost 800 words of it and starting fresh! It really made all the difference!
Oh god a pool. I am JEALOUS! Even a paddling pool would be amazing right now 🤣
I hope your having a wonderful holiday! Where have you gone? (If you don't mind me asking)
Also what are you reading??
yeah yesterday I had around 3k words, deleted 1600 of that, and then last night I deleted another 1300 or so, but then i added a thousand (this sounds like a really shitty math problem lol. I'm saying, i got 1.3k written now, after deleting a bunch of shit)
I am so thankful of the pool, im in Italy (Tuscany) and I'm reading the Godfather haha so its a whole mood

Body type headcanons for every character
These are my headcanons based on canon and what would make the most sense, this disregards their sprites.
I'm not set on what I think of Lucifer. He is either thin or has a Dad bod. But I tend to thin, because he works through many nights and skips meals often. He mainly runs on coffee, that can't possibly build muscle. Also he doesn't care much about his appearance, as long as he looks proper and clean, so I don't think he cares enough to cram working out into his routine. He has a more build back because of his demon form. Four wings are heavy as fuck and flying takes effort. Which he needs to do often, thanks to Mammon and his shenaningans.
Mammon would probably be more fit. Canon depiction would make sense. He is always on his feet, because of ADHD, his scams or Lucifer chasing him. He'd probably have the most muscles on his legs and the back. He is the fastest demon, after all. I don't think he'd had a six-pack though. He always eats cup noodles and if he works out, he doesn't seem to do that regulary. He'd probably work out more when a modeling gig comes around.
Leviathan is chubby, you cannot change my mind. Yes he likes swimming, but he rarely ever gets the chance to. I only remember once it being mentioned; in the Summer Event 2021. But him pulling all nighters, binging anime while only surviving of his stored snacks is mentioned many times. Also it is often mentioned that he doesn't like overexerting himself. Luke told him to go to a doctor cause having that few muscle strenght is not normal. Common people, he barely ever leaves his room, this motherfucker is not toned, he is chubby, we all know it.
Satan looks like an average guy to me. He never works out and prefers lounging while reading. But he also doesn't overeat or eat unhealthy food for a long period exclusively.
Asmodeus is trying his damn hardest to maintain a thin figure, but he is a sweettooth. His weight fluctuates a lot. He breaks his diets often. He also doesn't work out because he doesn't want to have visible muscles. He goes from chubby to thin often. I'd say he leans a bit towards chubby most of the time.
Beelzebub is fucking jacked. He works out a lot and looks like a fucking bodybuilder. His eating habits are serving him for once, else these gains would be impossible.
This demon looks starved to death. Belphegor gives his food to Beelzebub often. And doesn't seem to like eating particulary, he'd rather see his twin happy while eating (Beel is probably worried for him and bring him smth to eat every once in a while). Belphegor doesn't work out or even move much either.
Diavolo. This is a tough one. He is always working, I doubt he uses his little free time to work out. Also he always has plenty of food, thanks to Barbatos' wonderful cooking. I'd say he has a Dad bod.
Barbatos looks like he is skinny but has a lot of mucle strength, like a ballet dancer. Incredible control over his body, but not visible to the eye. He barely sleeps, is always moving, thanks to his job and I've once seen a comic strip of him carrying a wasted Diavolo back to the castle, and I like this headcanon.
Luke, I'd say he is a bit chubby because of all the sweets he makes and tries to perfect. He'd have to taste-test quite a bit and he likes sweets too so he probably eats his creations often. The average sweets-liking kid.
Simeon could be a bit chubby, skinny, average or toned, he is in the middle of the scale, not particulary tipping to either side. I can't decide. Simeon's habit aren't often discussed. I think he has a lot of discipline towards food, so he could be toned. He is not the athletic type though. Him being able to fly is only once mentioned, in the Gemstone event of 2021. As for now I headcanon him to be average, cause he is not athletic but also not much of a foodie. He does cook and Luke offers him sweets all the time, but Simeon never eats not in moderation, as far as I've seen. He likes sharing his cooking rather than eat it all himself. But he is a bookworm, so it'd make sense.
Solomon is a skinny bitch. He pulls all nighters regulary and I headcanon that he pushes his limits all the time, forgetting he is a human and needs sleep. He'd rather work on his spells than sleep or eat. And the food he cooks doesn't look like it has any nutritional value. He looks like he lives off caffeine and sweets, that Luke brings him from time to time, because he is worried. (Him working on spells multiple days and nights, non stop, has been mentioned in a chat before, and Luke bringing him snacks bc of it. I think this happens regulary.) So skinny it is.
Raphael is a diligent angel and is rather strict with moderation stuff. He also seems to train a lot, so I think he is toned. Although he loves Solomon's food, it has no nutritional value.
Thirteen is lazy and only does something if she enjoys it, like building traps. So I think she is average, she has a bit chub though.
Mephistopheles is average but a bit chubby leaning. He is a rich kid so he eat healthy, (he doesn't even know what a burger is). But he is very dedicated to his newspaper club, so he stays often put and doesn't work out.

I'm going to rant for a moment so um yeah
I ordered a textbook from a thrift site that I've ordered from before and never had a problem with, so I thought it was going to be okay. I ordered my book, it was pretty cheap, and I thought I was getting a deal. Nothing on the website indicated that there was anything wrong with the book.
Well I got it sooner than expected and opened it up, and it would have been okay if the bookw as damaged. A little tear or a missing cover is nothing. But I literally opened this up to mold spores on every fucking page.
Mold that I am allergic to. Mold that always fucking messes with my asthma. Mold. Fucking Mold.
Come to find out Abe books is a site for world wide independent sellers to sell books. That's fine, I love that, but omg who in the hell sends a moldy book in the mail? Jfc.
I feel the reaction slowly coming on in my throat. Fuck.

March Books
• The Master and Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov
20/10. I never like recommending books, nor taking recommendations, however I was recommended this by a teacher of mine and now I'm recommending it to anyone who is reading this. The story was good, the characters were so human, and all in all I just enjoyed it. The concept is also one that I've just meber heard before, but when I read about what the bookw as about I was just like "Of course, how has this not been written before?"
• To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee
6/10. Didn't like it, but didn't hate it. Would I recommend it to people? Probably not :/
• Death Note Volumes 5-6
11/10, my boy Near FINALLY showed upppppp🥳🥳
• Japanese Tales of Mystery and Imagination by Edogawa Rampo
9.5/10, .5 was taken off because the descriptions during The Caterpillar genuinely disturbed me. I'm usually okay with body horror (is that what that was?) but just. . . . There was something about it that disturbed me. Other than that, wonderfully written. I was able to solve the "mystery" ones rather quickly, but despite that I still enjoyed them quite a lot.
