Do you ever think about how "I have no idea what's gonna happen next, but whatever it is, I think we should work together. I think it'll be easier if we're a team."

is both so poetic and so euphemistic because that boy is not talking about solutions and battles that boy is talking about LOVE.

He wants it to come across, or at least have some plausible deniability that it's, "us not working together will just make the hell storm about to rain down harder" but really it's

"If I die tomorrow, I want you to be by my side; I won't be as scared"

They were already working together. Will forgave him and was acting normal. It was going to be "easier" and there was no obstacle for that. He just wanted to say "I love you" without saying I love you. In season 4, he's already fighting to say "I love you" to El while fighting NOT to say it to Will. Look at him, he's finding work arounds on both sides.

Something about the phrase "I have no idea what's gonna happen next"[but I want you to be there] is just so romantic. Elevated from anything. Beyond "whatever happens next will be bad let's face it together you and me against the world". It's

"I want to jump into the unknown with you"

I have too many bloody WIPs and fic ideas, and I've been out of the game so long that they're all clamouring for attention, and I can't get my brain to settle down and focus on one. Honestly, I'm at the point where if I can't choose one in the next hour, I am putting them all in a hat and picking one out at random!

I think I've officially forgotten how to write either that or I've hit a writing block.

rando questino: how old is birdie supposed to be

uh

good question, lol

I always pictured her in her late twenties? between like, 25-28ish

my most toxic trait is that I never have real answers for these questions because I truly don't ever pin down details, just like I can't do face claims for characters because I always blank 😬 it's like when you read tmtc and see that I never really describe Girl's room, or when you read SDLN and see that I never say exactly where they are or what month it is, or when you read ITD and see that I never mention Birdie's background or family......I'm actually terrible at those things, lol

me, at all times, just vibin fast and loose:

Do you ever re-read a story you've written and have no memory of writing it? And also it really doesn't seem like something you'd ever be interested in? And it doesn't read like something you'd written because frankly, if anyone should know how you write, it's you. But this does not, in fact, seem like your writing? So then you check again to see that you did actually write this baffling thing, and the only way forward is to go 'huh' and never think of it again. Just me?

After the Rain Falls — Zo x Ivvira

I have zero motivation for Horizon fandom things at the moment which does not bode well for the rarepair fic I committed to write that's due iiiiiiin

8 days.

Oh no.

Anyways, here's a snippet of some Zo/Ivvira. Plz pray I get all the bit n' pieces strung together into something vaguely coherent to post.

She knew the lifecycle of grief. Or rather she knew that it wasn’t much of a cycle at all. It moved in its own way, swelling and retreating as it pleased. She was simply at its mercy. The routines she’d established helped a great deal. Having a network of friends she could rely on for support and distraction was invaluable and watching Valea grow gave her life a truly beautiful new purpose.

But even all those wonderful, helpful, good things failed on the worst days.

Varl was gone. He would not come back.

And sometimes it was simply impossible to bear that truth.

“She is moving well.”

Zo turned at the voice, finding Ivvira standing at the top of the steps, watching as Valea pushed herself back up to her feet, intent on continuing her quest to capture the tantalizing leaf she’d been chasing. She only made it a few awkward steps before she was back in the grass.

Ivvira chuckled as she approached. “May I?” she asked, gesturing to the spot next to Zo. Once she had the quietly nodded approval, she stretched out in the sun. Valea had decided against pursuing the leaf, distracted by the waves she could make in the grass. “Has she been trying long?”

“Just since yesterday,” Zo murmured. She’d hardly been able to stand upright on her own two feet the night before, grunting in annoyance as her tiny feet refused to cooperate with her wishes. Then she’d awoken ready to run.

Another pang pulsed beneath her ribs.

Conversation lapsed as they watched Valea investigate a particularly interesting collection of dirt and rocks. Zo was attuned to every grunt and wobble as the toddler began arranging nature to better suit her preferences.

“Will you be staying for the Kulrut?”

“No.” The word was padded with Zo’s gentle politeness but the quickness she’d uttered it betrayed her. She offered Ivvira a soft smile. “We’ll be heading back to Plainsong before the midday meal.”
