nothing like rereading a wip and going “oh fuck I completely changed the writing style without noticing” LMAO

#this is about country roads and why do the first few chapters sound so different ?! #I guess this is why real books have editors and teams fixing them #but not me - it’s all raw genius here on the ceilidh show

What a fun and special weekend, spent celebrating big beautiful gorgeous queer love 💖

ghoap in zombie apocalypse, where ghost is infected and he urges for soap to leave him behind. there's a lot of unspoken feelings between them, a lot of pining from the years they spent together in tf141

and soap just refuses to do it. it's a whole ass argument between ghost (in pain) and soap, who just cuffs himself to ghost's hand (god knows from where he has those).

whole concept is about them reliving the memories they have, and when soap confesses that he loves him, ghost is already turned:)

Square Dance - Just Where You Had Started - Strictly NRC Dancing

Author Notes: This is a dual purpose fic. I know I said the Vil dance fic was that last one, but I wasn't happy ending this AU without a conclusion fic. Secondly @pyroxeene, I hope you enjoy this dance fic! I cheated a little and combined square dancing with ceilidh dancing due to some research difficulty. I listed to "Kingdom Dance" from the Tangled OST by Alan Menken and was also heavily inspired by the Tangled dancing scene. Just like the rest of this AU/series the reader is female for this fic. I hope you enjoy!

If you would like to read more this AU/series, the fics can be found here: Strictly NRC Dancing AU Master-List

Type: Dance AU/ Female Reader/ Fluff/ Romantic

Word Count: 902

It was the final dance for the series of classes that had been held at NRC. A sort of celebration, the headmaster had called it. But it hadn’t been solely his idea. In fact, it had been an idea put forth by Lilia.

The ancient fae had declared that a final dance, performed by the entire school, would serve as a final way of proving what they’d learned and of causing all the students to bond.

Despite some reservations, Lilia was the one who had put forth the idea, so Sebek would follow along. After all, Lilia knew best, and Malleus himself supported the idea.

The heir to the Briar Valley throne had actually quite liked the idea when Lilia had first mentioned it. Citing that it would be a good time to share a more faerie style of dance and for you, the Prefect who’d performed for each class, to simply enjoy themselves for the sake of a dance.

And that's how it had been decided. 

The closest thing the staff knew to the dances of the fae were what they called a ‘square dance.’ So that was what everyone learned. And when it came time for the grand performance, lots were drawn to see who the Prefect’s final partner would be.

Sebek had stared at the long straw in his hand in surprise before he looked up to see you smiling at him from where you stood between the two designated callers for the dance. Lilia and Sam.

Malleus himself was the one who cast the spell that gave the magical band life as students formed the interlocking circles of partners. 

Your hand slipped snugly into his, and Sebek found himself glancing your way in a surprisingly nervous fashion.

He’d done such dances before, numerous times even, back in the Briar Valley. Lilia had insisted that he and Silver both learn them, as they were supposedly one of the greatest delights of the people who did not live as part of the Briar Valley Court.

According to him, these dances were a way to get daringly close to the object of one’s affections without ever ruining one's propriety. And at the time, Sebek had thought it was ridiculous.

But Sebek found that as the strings of the magic-led band began to fill the air, he no longer found it quite so silly.

In fact, as the music set a speedy tempo and Sam loudly announced the first steps, “Circle left and away we go,” Sebek found that he was oddly pleased that he was the one who got to be your partner.

And so the two of you whirled through the rings of people. Separating and returning to each other as if drawn by some sort of magnetic force, even though in reality you were just following the instructions that were being called out to all of the dancers.

Each time you were apart, Sebek would find his gaze dragging itself back to where you were. Laughing alongside the other dancers, you quite literally kicked your heels up and into the air as you locked arms with Ace so you could get spun into your next position.

There was a frenzied joy that seemed to fill the previously moody crowd as everyone spun through circles within circles of other dancers. Humans, fae, and beastmen alike were all laughing as they clapped along to the beat of the song and spun together.

Steps were missed, and the performance was anything but perfectly executed, but no one cared. It was as if, in this singular moment, all that mattered was the joy of being alive and with others.

People had long since forgotten who their original partner was and now whirled about with whomever they found themselves paired with. You and Sebek had nearly met back up numerous times to rejoin as partners again, but each time you were caught hold of by someone else and pulled away.

But the dance was still, somehow not chaotic. 

By now, even the staff members and callers of the dance were laughing. What had been a carefully orchestrated showing of what the student body had learned throughout their classes had become a joyful celebration of some unknown feeling.

Students followed the steps they’d learned during the square dance classes and followed the calls that Lilia gave as he took over for the amused but lost-looking Sam. This was no longer the square dance that the humans had described. This was a dance of the faeries, where one only followed the feelings in their heart and the beat of the music.

And through it all, Sebek still found himself seeking you out amid the laughter-filled throng of people. And there you were, spinning and laughing with your arms locked with Malleus’s until you spun away. Reentering the inner circle to dance on your own until you carefully made your way back out, ready to meet up with a new partner.

And it was there that Sebek finally caught you, half-breathless, as your hands found his, and you stopped as both the music and the performance abruptly ended. 

You laughed, half out of breath, as you looked at him with sparkling eyes, and Sebek understood what Lilia had meant by the dance strengthening the bond between fae and humans, just as he now knew why such a dance was popular with couples.

Because even though the performance was over, you had miraculously, or perhaps inevitably, ended up back in Sebek’s hold. Just where you’d started.

Orbital Mechanics

or: How Things Move In Space

Seeing as I have a blog on a blogging website and an interest I would like to talk about more, I've figure that I should combine these two things and start posting about subjects I like, starting with something I am very passionate about; orbital mechanics!

The physics of space, especially relating to spacecraft, is something I've been fascinated by for years now. It's something I've studied on my own and have even worked into some of my game dev projects.

But where do I start if I want to talk about it? I think the best way to start things off would be with the most fundamental concept: how gravity works in space.

Furthermore, if you have any questions about anything I talk about or related to what I talk about, feel free to send me an ask about it and I'll do my best to answer!

Orbital Mechanics // What is Weightlessness // Anatomy of an Orbit

Other Space Stuff // The First Point of Aries

Other Math Stuff // The Math of Gravity // Iterative Methods: Bisection

what is this ghostsoap toxic bdsm verse….i am so intrigued

ok SO

there's a verse that some writers have created (i wish i could give credit, but this has been around for AGES, like i first read this as a sterek fic back in like 2016) that's super similar in concept to the omegaverse, but instead of alpha/beta/omega dynamics, people are either doms/subs/switches (but same general idea). it's also a biological imperative the way omega stuff is.

(it's so fucking insane that i've been online long enough to know all this. i could've studied medicine.)

anyway, i LOVE this au, but i've never written anything for it, but im ddyyyinnnggg to write a ghostsoap fic where ghost is a Dom and soap is a Sub, and their relationship is very very toxic and ghost does a lot of stuff that would be considered absolutely horrendous bdsm practices like 🚩🚩🚩 forcing soap into a subdrop or collaring soap before he's ready 🚩🚩🚩 (i am putting so many red flags so u understand that im aware this is bad) because that's my favourite ghostsoap dynamic.

#cod headcanons #OOPS #ghostsoap #pls dont come in my dms now and say “ceilidh this is toxic and bad” I KNOW. #thats the point!!

[pinktinselmonstrosity]

i think i've said this before but. it is super weird when you've been lonely and friendless for so long to suddenly have people inviting you places and actually wanting to see you all the time. obviously it's fantastic but also. i'm sooooo tired how are normal people not incredibly tired all the time??

#i've been working 8am-7pm (inc commute) these past two days #and tomorrow i have classes 9-4 #and on friday i have classes and work 11-4 #my friend wants to go to a burns night supper tomorrow i said great! #then she asked if i wanted to go out afterwards. and to a ceilidh on friday. and camping this weekend #i said girl please i need a second 😭 #if nothing else i desperately need to bleach my roots so. please #🧃

Unconventional wake-up call this morning.

At first, I thought it was part of my dream---I’ve always had vivid dreams, and especially when I’ve been reading before bed. (The details fade quickly, once I’m awake and upright, but the feelings tend to linger...)

By the time I surfaced, though, it was undeniable---there really was a man playing the violin outside my window in the cold dark of 3:15am. He only played for a few minutes, something rambling and tuneless. It was barely enough time to scramble to the window and peer through the blinds---I caught nothing except his shoulders, the back of his head as he turned away. Maybe it really was a dream; even now, an hour or so later with coffee in hand, it still feels a bit like one. A moment out of time, something crystallized in a brighter, stranger place and then dropped into my life to shine incongruously under the streetlamp.

Later I’ll be annoyed he woke me up so early, but I’m still too charmed by the moment---just me and this wandering fiddler awake in the witching hour, like something from a story.

#the pragmatic part of me is fairly sure he's a busker who lives nearby #I rode the bus recently with a man who had a guitar strapped to his back and a violin in hand; I'm fairly sure it's the same man #......however the part of me that devoured every fairytale and fantasy novel I could get my hands on ages 8-18 #is currently beating up the pragmatic part with a baseball bat #so we're going with ''fiddler just returned from the fairy ceilidh'' as the only logical explanation #celestial emporium of benevolent knowledge

[tiffanyachings]

I know I've got lungs 'cause they ache a bit

I know I've got a nose 'cause I'm constantly annoyed by the fact that I can't breathe through it

#i act like dead weight cause i love you!!! #crooks & nannies #music #protested and ceilidhed a bit too hard yesterday and i am PAYING for it #songs that rewired my brain chemistry in 2024

[dracolizardlars]

Time signatures be like

2/4: march

3/4: waltz

4/4: normal dancing

5/4: dancing drunk

6/4 and beyond: don't worry about it

#in reality i vaguely have knowledge that 6/- and 9/- time signatures are used in the kind of dance music that gets called a 'jig' or a 'reel #but I know nothing about that kind of music whatsoever #draco speaks #apparently wind waker title screen music is in 9/4 and I'd dance to that at a caelidh any time #*ceilidh. I tried my best

[eilidh-eternal]

So I had every intention of writing Swans Upon Leda as a soft, fluffy, slice of life piece…. Yeah, it’s definitely not that anymore lmao my brain is rotting with thoughts of morally gray morally pitch black Johnny and Simon and the good ole forced proximity trope.

Sooooo yeah. This is your warning that chapter 3 of swans is gonna get a little twisty where the guys are concerned. Reader will still be blissfully ignorant to their intentions but Johnny is down bad for reader and Simon tries and fails to be the voice of reason

#I’d say I’m sorry but I’m not lol #you can blame Charlie and Ceilidh tho #they’ve ruined me with their thoughts on morally gray 141

[calamitys-child]
