"I swear would it temporarily destroy her physical shell for her to not take the chaotic option for once?" Ignis on the other hand detourdd around where Tiamat broke into to just go see the boss instead of randomly running into some poor subordinate who probably dealing with the fact Tia going to literally break into the system to look into things herself. "Thinking about it, random and automatically generated. This sounds like a system with a connection to Yunqi or at least got her help in making it."
Tumblr media
“ It does sound like someone that lady would be involved in, wouldn’t it? I’d wish our system was a bit more controlled. Honestly, it gets a bit stressful at times… “ And as the boss sat at her desk, she’d let out a sigh, as she leaned back in her office chair. “ My name is Carnelian, if you wanted to know that… By the way, would you like some coffee? My assistant brewed more than once cup. “

Regarding some false accusations and targeted harassment by HopelessPeaches TW: Harassment, mentions of gr**ming, d**th threats, s*icide idealization
For the past months, HopelessPeaches (also known as ThatRebelRosie on twitter) have kept harassing me and my husband Nyx with fake and exaggerated arguments. Every day she makes a post spreading rumors about how we are p*dophiles or that I hide groomers on my discord server/community which are completely false.
Tumblr media
Even since I cutoff contact with the people from the GTC and their skype group, I tried to focus on growing up as a person and thanks to that we were able to keep our Discord server and community a safe space for people of all ages, claiming otherwise is just invalidating all the hard work people like Crystal or Pingu have done to keep our community safe.
Tumblr media
We always tried to help our mod team and offered our support, we never forced them or exposed them to situations they didn't want to handle.  None of us were prepared for the sick people we have had to confront over the years, but together we were able to take actions against them.
HopelessPeaches is obsessed with us, claiming that every action we take is to hide something or that we are trying to silence her abuse (When it's the other way around, she completely ignores the abuse I had to endure). She has gone to the extent of saying I announced Underverse 0.7 Part 2 to hide something, when I had planned to announce the animation on my birthday months ago.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
She has constantly made fun of my abuse and mental health, and has stayed completely silent about all the hate messages (Including death threats) that she and her community has sent my way over her false accusations.

Tumblr media
As I already cleared with the people on my server, I am not ignoring what I might have done in the past, and I will always live with the remorse of not being a better person from the start, I will always live with that, but I have spent years trying to become a better person and fix my mistakes to never repeat them again, both with my close circles and my followers, but having someone that I don't know, exposing my mental health problems, making fun them, accuse me of suicide baiting (Everyone that knows me knows I have struggled with this since I was a teenager), and also accusing me of a crime that I have never committed, is affecting me physically and mentally.
Tumblr media
She is doing the same thing to me that she suffered from years ago. This has to stop. I am not asking for the world to not hate me, I am asking for people to stop harassing us for things that we have already acknowledged and owned fully in the past. People can change for the better, we are not criminals.
We have no intentions to send hate to these people, but this has gone so public and we have gotten so many threats that I had to address it personally. HopelessPeaches , I don't know what exactly you want from me, or what do you expect is going to happen, but this is the last time I will ask you to stop harassing us. I don't care if you hate me or Nyx, if you want the Undertale community dies or whatever that's going on through your head. I am just asking you to leave us alone.

Hey GTC, I have always been such a fan of your Tumblr and your engagement with the fandom. However I must say that as of late, the questions you’re being asked most often are essentially variants of “Will X happen?” or “Will Y character do Z like in the book?” or even, “I’m noticing Theme A, will it continue in future chapters?”
A significant element of the fun that you’ve created for Lionheart readers is that we don’t know which elements and events of the JKR texts you’ll preserve untouched and which you’ll turn into the sixth and seventh year Lionheart storylines. I adore making my guesses to which parts of canon you’ll play with and which parts you’ll completely and utterly upend. Unfortunately, questions that ask about canon events in books 5-7 ruin so much of the fun.
Historically, you’ve used the Ask box to provide us with analyses of your own work and characterizations, but I feel as if recently you are often indulging questions about books 5, 6, and 7. I hate to say it, but I even feel that your answers veer into spoiler territory. I used to lurk your Tumblr incessantly, but since I’ve started to see this influx in predictive questions these past couple weeks, I’ve been avoiding the app.
It’s such a gift that we get to engage with your work on such a vibrant epistolary and interactive space as your Tumblr. I know that you can’t control what fans ask, but I humbly request that you please consider refusing to answer questions that ask you to ponder future events. Thank you for your tender care to everyone in the fandom. ❤️‍🔥🦁🧡
Hey, what's up, dude. I hear you. Sorry about that.
The problem is that the line between spoilers and not spoilers is totally subjective, and the line between "spoilers that are fine" and "spoilers that bother me" is also totally subjective. I don't know where you are on it, but we probably don't line up, and that's okay. I just don't know how I'd begin to sort out questions that one person considers "too much" from what someone else just thinks is fun analysis. My hard rules are as follows: I don't answer any questions about future ships, events, or arcs (and I get a lot). I haven't revealed anything that I would be unhappy to discover in a Tumblr askbox instead of a fic itself. True, I've dropped teaser/trailer stuff for 6 and 7, but to be honest, even looking over the stuff I've posted recently — I hate to say it, but I disagree with you. It isn't spoilers. Not to me, anyway.
But that's just me! There's no right or wrong answer here, it's just a coordination problem of how we can both cultivate social media experiences that make us happy. For instance: I like answering questions about my fic. It makes me happy to talk to people who want to know what happens. It encourages me and gets me excited to write about it, and I don't believe that any of the content on my Tumblr spoils what's going to happen. I don't really want to stop doing that, so I'm not going to. If that means you and other readers whose spoiler thresholds are below mine can't engage with my Tumblr, that's a natural consequence of us having different attitudes about media, and it was bound to happen. I'm sorry that that's the case, but it would bring me much more grief for you to injure your reading experience than it would for you to avoid my (largely irrelevant) e-journal full of random metatext. I love my fic, and I love my readers, you most certainly included; I do not, candidly speaking, love my Tumblr account. And for what it's worth, I absolutely do not think anything I've written on here is worth diminishing your experience of a story you enjoy. It wouldn't jive with my philosophy of literature and art.
So here's what I got: I'll continue tagging spoilers about past and current events as [#lionheart spoilers], and if a question makes reference to events not published, I'll use the tag [#prognosticating]. That way you can block the tag, and other readers can enjoy content that fits under their threshold of non-spoilerism. If our thresholds still don't line up, then I think the only solution may really be to block the [#lionheart spoilers] tag altogether. That's probably not the answer you're looking for, but it's the best I can do.

So I am new I am in my 20's but um I am not really develop well you can say I am golden tree child aka autistic but I perf Golden tree child or GTC
And this took a lot of courage to ask
But I am not ready to not be anorn so can I be 🪷 aron
But imagine the player is autistic and her copying Skil is helping Link and when things are tough she kinda makes wird noses and clicks a lot with her toung
And talk to links saying it ok I get us though this your my best friend and my only freainds well the other brothers of you I think the other links are you brothers .
And Image the reader vent to them as she telling them how she bullied and want to stand up but can't but stand up for them she will. And when the Reader is in the world with the links. image how much they see the reader with a golden heart and easy taken advantage of and hurt the yiga clan for doing that and when the reader stuff animal is missing and she panics the boys try to find it but see a monster destroy it but quickly goes to fix it like new and give it to the reader and cuddle the. Happy!
Sorry I'd this is to much I love reader your work it my new coping tool for me and make me happy
From 🪷 aron
Hey take your time! Getting off anon is nerve wracking, took me a few years to start using my actual account to send in asks! But good for you for sending one anyway!
Also I'm glad you enjoy my stuff!
Definitely a protective Chain moment, especially when the boys can see the moments Player is close to getting taken advantage of. They also appreciate Player standing up for them too but they'd probably try and get them to back down because there's no need! It still definitely makes them happier knowing they've got backup!
They're confused about the noises at first until they realise that it's a sort of coping mechanism? I feel Wind would pick it up in hopes to show that they've got the support and they don't need to feel embarrassed if they hesitate sometimes around them!

Ready, Set, Race
Merry Christmas to @flareshogwarts, my darling little Toffifee, the ray of sunshine of our group, the one that goes above and beyond to make all of us smile on a daily basis.
Thank you for screaming YES when I pitch some wild ideas to you (Hamilton anyone?), for letting me be part of your creative journey, and for being my outlet when the old gaming excitement rises again.
Frohe Weihnachten, FlareBear! Ich freu mich so hart auf nächstes Jahr! 🎄✨
Tumblr media
A/N: OCs featured and mentioned belong to @samshogwarts @whatwouldvalerydo @kc-and-co @the-al-chemist and @that-scouse-wizard
“Have I told you lately that I love you?”
Dylan and Dana exchanged glances as Reva slumped into a seat at their library table.
“What do you want?”
“Can’t I express my affection for my two favourite people in this world without there being an ulterior motive to it?” Reva pursed her lips innocently. “But since you’re asking… you’re friends with Phil, aren’t you?”
“Here we go,” Dylan muttered while Dana raised her eyebrows.
“So are you.”
“But Dylan is really, really good friends with him. And you…” Reva shrugged. “You’re friends with everyone.”
“Spit it out,” said Dylan, already rubbing his eyes in exasperation. “What have you done?”
“So there’s this thing Phil has been getting excited about. You know, this Christmas thing,” Reva waved her hand impatiently. “It was supposed to be some Secret Santa event, or something, for all the Quidditch teams together. As if I wanted to exchange gifts with a Slytherin,” she added with a snort.
“According to Scarlett, you’ve been exchanging a little more than gifts with one recently,” muttered Dana, quickly falling silent when Dylan raised his brows at her.
“Anyway,” Reva hurriedly continued, “Robin and I got curious about what he had in store, so we nicked his list with names from him. We sat and read it in the changing room after practice, but Rory ran off with some Ravenclaw girl and we wanted to see who it was, so…”
“Let me guess,” Dylan sighed deeply. “You forgot the list and someone from another team found it. Does Phil know about this?”
As if to answer his question, the doors to the library burst open and in stormed Phil Baker. He headed straight for Dylan’s and Dana’s table, leaving Reva just enough time to jump behind an adjacent shelf.
“Where is she?” Phil called out, his face screaming murder. “I know you know where she is.”
“If you mean Reva -” Dylan began but stopped himself when Dana kicked him underneath the table. 
“We haven’t seen Reva all day,” Dana said sweetly. “Is anything the matter?”
“She went and ninja-looted my Christmas surprise. Looted, I tell you! It’s the worst breach of GTCs ever! She’s a grinch, is Reva. A grinch who stole my Christmas!”
“That’s awful,” Dana said, her eyes expressing sympathy. “Have you checked with Zadie?”
Phil blinked. “Uhm, no, I haven’t.”
 “Chances are good that she’s with her.”
“Will you send me a notif if she spawns in the meantime?”
“Uh, sure thing, will do.”
When Phil had gone, Reva emerged from her hiding place, grinning broadly. “Perfect acting, Dana. Thanks.”
Dana didn’t seem to share Reva’s good mood. She crossed her arms in front of her chest. “How do you plan to sort this mess?”
Reva shuffled her feet. “I was hoping that -”
“No,” Dylan immediately said.
“But -”
“He is right,” said Dana. “You can’t just ruin Phil’s hard work and then expect us to clean up after you.”
“Robin and I never meant to ruin it!”
“You shouldn’t have tinkered with it, then.”
“That’s unfair!”
“Miss Amari,” came the voice of Madam Pince as she passed their table with a stack of books floating behind her, “this is a place for studying, not shouting.”
“Madam Pince? Is that someone reading the notebook on your desk?”
The old librarian paled and rushed back to where she had come from. When she found her desk to be deserted, she turned to Reva with a glare.
“Five points from Gryffindor!”
“You mustn’t shout, Madam Pince. This is a place for studying.” Reva turned to Dana with a frown. “She can’t actually deduct house points, can she?”
“No, but I can, and will if you don’t learn to behave yourself,” Dana replied darkly. “You keep riling people up for fun and expect there to be no consequences.” She purposefully looked back down at her book. “You’ll have to find out how to make things up to Phil alone.”
“And how am I supposed to do that?”
“I don’t know. How about you apologise for a start?”
Reva snorted. “He’d obliterate me where I stand.”
“Then do something nice for him first.”
“What did you have in mind?”
“Reva…”
“No, I’m serious. What does someone like Phil enjoy?”
“He enjoys a lot of things.”
“Like?”
“Like…” Dana frowned. “Yeah, like what?”
The eyes of both girls went to Dylan. He sighed. “He’s been into something called Mario’s Cars lately.”
“Mario’s Cars? What’s Mario’s Cars?”
“And who is Mario?”
Dylan shrugged. “Do I look like I know?”
“And how do I find out now?” The look in Reva’s eyes was pleading as she turned back to Dana. “I know what cars are, but not who this Mario bloke is and what makes his cars so special.”
Despite herself, Dana tapped her pursed lips with her finger. “Scarlett might know.”
Dylan looked sceptical. “Why would she?”
“Well, because… oh, never mind,” Dana hurried to reply, colour rising to her cheeks. “I’ll go and see what she thinks. Maybe she can wiggle something out of Phil. Information, I mean,” she added hastily, slamming her book shut and leaving with a burning red face.
***
It took Dana a lot of coaxing, prodding, and the promise to sneak some of her mother’s modified Pepper-Up Potions against hangovers back to school, but eventually, Scarlett had agreed to help them.
Reva’s eyebrows rose higher and higher when Scarlett provided her with a detailed explanation of what she had pieced together from Phil’s ramblings, but her confusion soon turned into determination.
Cars, obstacles, and throwing stuff at other people? That was something she could work with.
Shortly before their Christmas break, Reva’s surprise for Phil was finally ready. Barely able to hide her excitement, she waited for him by the entrance of the Great Hall, bobbing up and down with impatience.
“You really think this is a good idea?” her best friend Zadie asked for the fourth time. “I’m not sure about this, Reva.”
“Don’t be such a Diricrawl, Zadie,” Robin rolled her eyes. “This is going to be great.”
“Exactly,” Reva agreed, craning her head to see where Rory and Lachlan were eating with Phil. “I don’t see what could possibly go wrong.”
“If you’re asking like this,” Victoire Weasley, the fourth girl waiting by the door with them, began, but she was immediately hushed when the three boys rose from the Gryffindor table.
“They’re coming. Get into position.”
The four girls hopped behind the suits of armour flanking the double doors. As soon as Rory, Lachlan and Phil came into view, Reva and Robin jumped from their hiding places. Robin, who was almost the same height as Phil, pulled a bag over his head while Reva slung her arms around his midsection to keep him from fighting.
“This is an abduction,” she laughed, holding on tighter as Phil tried to break free. “You will now be escorted to your Christmas surprise.”
“What has glitched in your head?” came Phil’s muffled voice from underneath the bag. “Did you sleep through patch day, or what?”
All Reva had to spare him was a giggle as they marched the incapacitated Phil to a side entrance. After a short but stumbly walk across the frozen grounds, Reva undid the knot on the drawstring securing the bag on Phil’s head.
“Three, two, one… Merry Christmas!”
Her shout was repeated by several voices as the bag was pulled away and Phil blinked into the sunlight.
“What in the name of Oblivion is this?”
“This,” Reva said proudly, “is a racing course.”
She gestured at the curvy trail they had set up on the grass, its winding bends and loops stretching over the terrain before them. Parts of the course were laid out with wooden tiles with arrows painted on them, as well as little bumps and sconces. Right in front of them, a black-and-white chequered line ran across the ground. A wild assortment of vehicles had been set up there - tiny cars that looked like they were meant for Muggle children; small bikes with or without passenger seats; and two skateboards that could only belong to Dylan and Reva.
“How do you like it?”
“Intelligence boost dispelled, stat drop to 40 %,” was all Phil could stutter as he took in the scene. “What is this?”
“This is my apology -”
“Our apology!” Robin called from the refreshment table.
“- our apology for ruining your Secret Santa game. Look,” Reva said and pulled Phil by the elbow, “we have the cars and the race track, and we even got the bananas and the fake turtle shells, even though I don’t know what they have to do with everything. I wanted to make some farb bombs, too, but Dana said no.”
“I don’t understand.” 
“No, me neither. They would have been the cherry on top.”
“That’s not what I mean,” Phil shook his head.
“Well, Dylan said you liked Mario’s Cars. We wanted to do something nice for you, so here we are.”
A look of understanding formed on Phil’s face. “Do you perhaps mean Mario Kart?”
“That’s what I said.”
Phil opened his mouth to correct her but was silenced when Scarlett stood next to him, pressing a silver flask into his hand.
“What’s that?”
“For speed.”
Phil sniffed the flask sceptically. “I suppose my chances at rolling energy are about zero.” It was only now that he noticed the costume Scarlett was wearing - green dungarees and a matching hat on her black locks. A bubbly laugh escaped him. “Are you dressing up as Luigi?”
“I’m dressing up as ‘drink this and shut up or else you’re going to regret it’, Baker,” Scarlett hissed, raising the flask to his lips before passing it to Reva and lastly taking a big swig herself. “What now, can we start this thing? It’s time you eat my dust.”
“In a second,” Reva said and rummaged through the pockets of her own costume. “We have the cars, but we still need our Mario.”
Before Phil could object, she had pulled out a big fake moustache and stuck it onto his face. With a flick of her wand, his clothes changed to red dungarees matching Scarlett’s green ones, while Robin pushed a red cap onto his head from behind.
They were about to turn away and claim their vehicles when Phil suddenly cried, “Stop!”
Confused, everybody turned to him. With a broad grin on his face, Phil drew his wand.
“Not without protective measures. Mario Kart is a vicious affair.”
He waved his wand through the air, conjuring big, fluffy pillows that tied themselves to the front and back of every race participant. Almost incapable of moving, Phil waddled to the passenger seat of the bike Scarlett had chosen, picking up a banana and a red turtle shell from the props table on the way.
“Alright, everyone. You have no idea what you’re in for.”
He lowered himself into his seat as best as he could and pulled his hat deeper into his face.
“On my signal. Ready, set… race!”

Sneak peek - GTC ch. 32
A little sneak peek of the next chapter of Given the Choice, since @withheartfulloflove asked - I still need to do some edits but this chapter should be up soon!
Just a note, I’ve changed the quartermaster’s name to Wesley Carswell. Same guy, slightly different name.
*  *  *
Blackbeard’s attack has had one positive side effect: Killian has proven himself to Ria and the crew, and the lingering tension on the ship has dissipated. Wesley Carswell no longer looks uncomfortable when Emma wanders up on deck, in fact he always has a smile and a teasing comment for her now, and Killian is no longer doing grunt work. He’s often in the company of one or more of the crew or conferring with Ria, sharing experiences. Emma wonders whether he realises how easily he slips into the role of advisor. He did the same in Neverland.
The only problem is that with the new camaraderie come questions. Such as how a lady from the royal court knows so much about sailing.
Lynch is the one who asks, when some of the crew shares a late lunch on deck the day after the attack. From his smile, his interest is entirely benign, but the question catches Emma off-guard. “It’s hardly part of a lady’s education, is it?”
“I—well,” she says, trying not to look flustered, “you know, I actually had a pretty good education…”
Killian laughs. “I don’t think you can count that as education, milady.” All eyes turn to him, and he goes on, “Her husband was an officer in the Royal Navy.”
Emma breathes a small sigh of relief. That sounds good. She vaguely remembers watching a Jane Austen movie once where the guy was a naval officer. An officer and a lady-in-waiting, that makes sense… right?
Janssen’s wife, a tall, no-nonsense woman named Inga, raises her brows. “A Navy man? How’d you end up here?”
With Hook and a band of outlaws, is what she means. Emma shrugs with a smile, back on balance now. “Long story.”
“Was an officer?” Carswell asks.
“Yeah, he, uh, retired,” Emma said. “After he married me. He didn’t want to be away at sea all the time.”
Inga smiles. “And now, here you are. You must miss him.”
“Yeah,” Emma says, smiling back and carefully not looking at Killian. “Yeah, I miss my whole family.”
“We’ll get you back there soon enough,” Lynch assures her.
“And I hope your husband appreciates it,” Carswell puts in, mock-stern. “And doesn’t send the Navy after us.”
Emma laughs, shaking her head. “He wouldn’t.”
“He’s far too besotted,” Killian puts in. “All he’ll care about is having his beloved wife back.”
She just about manages to hold back the dirty look she wants to throw at him. He’s enjoying this far too much. They need to get off this subject, not keep going on about the non-existent feelings of her non-existent husband.
It doesn’t help that he never looks better than when his eyes are sparkling like that, and she’s been thinking about him far too much lately, instead of thinking of something useful. Like her non-existent husband.
“What was his name again?” Inga asks.
Emma feels her heart trip, and casts around for a name while she says, “Sorry, what?”
“Your husband,” Inga repeats. “What did you say his name was?”
Emma didn’t give a name. She really should have thought of one. She has pretended to be married more than once in her career, but her usual go-to name is Justin. That doesn’t seem very… fairytale.
“Oh. Uh, William. Will.” She almost winces as she says it. This is Henry’s fault, with his talk about Keira Knightley and Pirates of the Caribbean. And she’s blaming Killian, too, for throwing her off her game.

Ey, sorry, I apologize for bothering you, but are there any actual allegations against the green brothers? A google didn't show me anything
I've just posted a long response to a similar ask, which I'd suggest you read, and I'm also going to try to find a previous blog post I wrote on the subject.
As far as I am aware, there are no allegations of sexual assault or similar, directly against the Green brothers. What is true (this is not allegation, this is fact) is that they gave a platform via their record label and events to a number of young men who ultimately used that platform to abuse women/girls, including younger teenagers. Some of this abuse took place at VidCon when the Green brothers were running the event.
Some of the men involved weren't just being given a platform by the Green brothers, they were people that at least Hank Green considered friends at the time- although of course he's since distanced himself. A lot of the "receipts" from this time have been lost from the internet, and Wikipedia tends to have varying amounts of information on the events involved because it gets removed every so often.
If you google "youtube sexual abuse scandal" or some of the names involved (see the previous ask) then you'll find something, for sure.
In my opinion (as someone who actually teaches a high school age group) there's not a dividing line of "paedophile" and "suitable to be a teacher" although that may be the legal distinction in some countries. It's a continuum, and I don't personally think that someone who ran an event which allowed a 15yo to be abused by a 21yo, and was somewhat aware of the interactions they were having is suited to being a teacher (again please see the previous ask because I don't want to rehash myself here).
In England (where I teach), if a teacher ran an event which led to this situation and saw the interactions Hank Green saw, I am about 99% sure they would lose their GTC registration (their teaching licence if you will).
Now, I know people "learn and grow" but I have never really seen the Green brothers acknowledge their role in some of the events that happened. After allegations came out, they were quick to sever ties with people, and claim they knew nothing was going on and then start preaching about consent. But I've never seen any reflection on their own actions, or any comments on what they feel they should have done differently. They may well have done this in private, and I do note they at least take more steps to protect themselves now.
But in my personal opinion, they're not suitable people to be in a position of responsibility for or power over teenagers.

Meanwhile, in the midst of the calm bamboo forest, a certain Immortal's humble household would receive a particular visitor.
Tumblr media
" Oh, hey, Bell. What can I help you with, today? "
Tumblr media
" Ah, nothing much. I'm just here to collect your weekly taxes. "
Tumblr media
" Wait...hold on, but I paid you, yesterday? Do you not remember? You asked for a payment of 20,000 Mon. "
Tumblr media
" What?? That can't be right, I was only just assigned to you, today. And considering your place is as cheap as it gets, you were only supposed to pay 2,000 Mon. "
...
Tumblr media
" Dealing with a shapeshifter, again? Reminds me of my old days, back in the GTC (Gensokyo Tax Collecters). "
Tumblr media

about my money situation... (please read. I know it's long, but it's the last one today, I promise)
also I thought I might update you all about my 'cars' and the 'money situation' since I know I've posted before about only having 1, and stressing over keeping it running, and that having 2 might make it seem like I'm suddenly doing fantastically.
I have 2 now. My girlfriend has built up some savings over the years and was kind enough to let me borrow some money from her instead of from a predatory loan agency to buy a second. My concern was having a second car so that if anything happened to the first, I'd have something to drive (the area I'm in is extremely anti-pedestrian, and even then, I'm disabled and can't walk even a single block without stopping).
The "new" car however is used, of course. For $2500 I got a 2004 Chrysler Sebring GTC convertible. My rationale was that my main car- a 2006 Ford Focus ZX4 SE sedan - could be used as my daily driver, for emergency money making (D**rD*sh, anyone?), since it gets decent gas mileage and is extremely reliable, while the secondary car could be more... fun. So yes. I got a convertible lol.
The convertible needed a bit of work (all new struts, the AC system doesn't work, and the top struggles to come up, but it still functions), but most of that is done now. I have the rear struts and parts for the AC. The front struts have been installed. The back window came partially unglued while we had it, but we glued that back with little issue. After cleaning out vents and putting more freon in, the AC blows cold for the most part, but it clearly still has issues. I have a new convertible motor on the way just in case that is going bad, but it probably won't be installed until this one completely gives out.
All in all, I've probably spent about ~$4000 on the car now, which is as much as plenty of people were asking for convertibles that were just as bad off, so I don't think it was a terrible deal.
That being said, it is extremely hot in my area, and I've dried my funds for the moment on repairing the AC. My dad knows a guy who's willing to do it cheaply, but I don't have any means of paying them for the moment. I also have about $5000 on a credit card at the moment, plus ~$300 on another credit card, and ~$200 on Affirm. My dad asked me to pay his and my mother's ~$2200 overdue tax bills using my credit card and that sorely threw my money management out the window. I've been desperately trying to keep my cards under 40% use which is why they're spread across three sources now, but that extra $2200 (or 22% of my unsecured credit card) was just too much...
I expected to handle most of the repairs and other stuff while I waited for disability decision on my credit card, which has now fallen through due to that. That's why I'm still asking for money, even though I SEEM well off.
I'm not.
I have about $100/wk in groceries, $50/wk in gas (for driving, considering I don't D**rD*sh, which isn't always a guarantee), then about $730.79/mo in bills. My girlfriend is helping some with the bills, but it is... a lot. It is a lot to have to survive on with meager income (it's hard to make even $200 on D**rD*sh in a single week, and I can't physically do any jobs I'm qualified for at the moment, hence the disability claim).
This is why I say even a single dollar will help. because it will. That's a dollar I don't have to make. That's a dollar I don't have to gauge whether D*shing will make me money or lose me money due to the gas prices. THat's why commissions right now would be my LIFEBLOOD.
My girlfriend has gotten money from her father in the past (not much anymore, though), and gets money from the govt to go to school from the GI Bill but this won't last forever. In fact, I believe she may only have 1-2 more years of that. It *could* in theory cover a lot of what I have going on, but... I know what she has in savings, and the amount of money I'd need to crawl out of this debt hole would easily take a significant chunk of her money. And we might need that money in the future to make a down payment on a place to live, not to mention it would be really shitty to take a bunch of her money that she may need for emergency situations or purchases of her own....
So I really, really, really don't want to do that.
so if you were curious. that's why I am asking for money despite seeming well off. I seem well off. but I am not. I am not well off at all and I am scared and struggling.

Hey GTC,
Hope you're doing okay. I gotta be real with you—I'm kinda in a tight spot. Been a huge fan of your writing forever, and you're like my ultimate inspiration, seriously. But here's the thing: I've had this burning urge to write a fic for ages now, and it's gotten to the point where it's not just a thought, it's practically an obsession. It's haunting me now. No kidding.
The kicker? I want this story to be as British as humanly possible. Like, 99.99% British. But here's the catch: I'm about as British as a snowflake in July. I've tried everything—reading British books, binge-watching British shows, immersing myself in the culture—but nothing's clicking.
So, I'm reaching out to you 'cause I'm at my wit's end. I'm desperate for any advice or tips you might have, especially since English isn't even my second language. I just need some guidance from someone who knows their stuff. Please, help me out here.
~Love💞
My friend, hold on to your hat and get ready to go nuts, because I happen to have exactly what you're asking for.
A Reference Guide to Writing Harry Potter Fanfiction, by Callmesalticidae; and
The Cranky Brit's Guide to Brit-Picking, by hobbitsdoitbetter.
As a Yank myself (and someone who admittedly and shamelessly has littered her own fic with Americanisms) I'm not the best positioned to advise you on how to write Brits and British culture. I just do the best I can and try to weave in things I observe as someone who lives here. All I can do is wish you the very best from one writer to another!
