Welcome to Chapter 1 of the TAoLaW "dramatic" reading

What can I say, the theatre kid in me needed to record this in audio format.

Have I mentioned how much I love this fic? Yes? Well I'm saying it again, I LOVE THE ART OF LOVE AND WAR!!!

If you haven't read it please go read it. Index Page | Chapter 1

The Art of Love and War Is written by @fireflywritesgt and the audio reading is recorded and posted with permision.

#OK IM ACTUALLY DOING THIS #I’ve been wanting to record dramatic readings of GT fics for a LOOOOOONG time now #but have been admittedly self conscious of my voice #but I finally bit the bullet #I did it #I recorded this chapter while I had the house to myself #Personally I still hear flaws in the audio which I assume were from getting too close to the mic #none of my edits were able to fix it so I guess I have to live with it now #if and when I have time I might re-record this chapter to fix this later #I recorded chapter 2 in the same sitting so that audio will be ready sooner rather than later #personally I think it sounds better #Hope you guys enjoy this #it was really fun to do and I’d like to do more in the future #g/t #giant/tiny #gt #giant tiny #borrowers #g/t fluff #Mighty Records #the art of love and war #taolaw #taolaw audio drama

its so hard to watch time pass when things like careers and assignments exist. what do you mean im supposed to take that seriously

#I have an assignment that was due a week ago and I really really dont want to do it. I have to but i dont want to #im probably making it worse because my brain has built a wall around it so now i can’t do literally anything else until thats done. but #because I don’t want to do it I’m just kinda stuck. turns out this is what they meant when they said emotional regulation is part of #exec dysfunction.. I’ll have a thought like if I get a little bit of it done now i can get it over with. I can just submit something #and then not even 5 minutes later itll be like ugh but I have to draw all the assets out. I have to write things and make spreads ugh #and its just flopping between those two things. i hate it when ppl are like well how much time do you need to work on one thing #because BOY id love to know too. I’d love to know exactly when my brain wants to cooperate with me and work around that but I cant #even my period can’t decide when it wants to punch me in the stomach. which is kinda funny in the grand scheme of things but still #its so weird im just lying on my bed thinking abt all this like damn.. the time will pass anyways no matter what I decide to do.. damn…. #if I submit that assignment now and take the L I literally won’t die. it’ll just be a deduction on an assignment nobody will ask me about #I know this but I’m still stressing myself about it so my thoughts aren’t really connecting to my body. weird #maybe its because Im having a hard time looking forward to things. theres definitely a lot I should be living for but I don’t really feel #a strong attachment to it I guess? it’s been like this for a while with holidays and meeting with friends so I just don’t #I kinda figured its because im pretty passionless and its more like passing interest. but it’s not very fun when it feels like I’m going to #be living distraction to distraction for the next 70 years or so lol #idk it kind of feels like slowly bleeding out. which is funny because I actually did experience blood loss this week #had a 30 minute nosebleed and literally could not stand. also it felt like someone was pinching the back of my brain which was interesting #yapping #does this count as vent #vent #Ive just been making an oc carrd and contemplate changing my blog header for the past 3 days honestly

hiking time!!

#tf2 #team fortress 2 #tf2 fanart #team fortress two fanart #it all started with the heavy bucket hat and then spiraled from there #heavy comes super duper uber prepared for hikes and whatnot #him and medic go bird watching and medic gets pissed because there are No birds out #demo and soldier gossip the entire time but soldier doesn’t know how to gossip and just talks about america like it’s a person #‘yeah i heard scout stole a few a’ engy’s things as payback for hiding his bonk’ ‘i love america did you see how purple those mountains are #scout makes fun of sniper’s stamina and treats every hike they go on like it’s a race and every time he does that he collapses #although not pictured i’d like to imagine engineer putting on sunscreen and then pyro seeing and following #they put it over their suit and run around with sunscreen streaks looking for firewood #and spy is probably sitting in a log cabin reading a newspaper and chuckling because he snuck away and doesn’t have to deal with the ‘daily #team building activities’ #(he’s actually secretly a huge red sox fan and met scout’s mom at a sox game but he’s so incredibly embarrassed of liking baseball that he #hides it so when everyone’s away he tunes into a sox game and pulls out his sox merch and gets hype when the sox score a point) #tf2 scout #tf2 sniper #tf2 heavy #tf2 medic #tf2 soldier #tf2 demoman #fanart #art #doodle

OKAY! Chatot rant in tags below! Read at your own discretion.

#okay starting from the beginning of where ppl usually dislike him. apple woods chapter. #he doesn’t give hero/partner the CHANCE to explain themselves despite them being relatively good recruits up until that point. #and that legit might be my only gripe with that chapter bc!!! stories need conflict! I LIKE the conflict in apple woods!!! #hero and partner being punished so something they didn’t do! #the misunderstanding! how team skull (Skuntank) actually outplays the main duo with a clever yet rotten trick. I LOVE that it segways into- #one of the more sweeter scenes of guild members looking out for eachother. I LIKE APPLE WOODS CONFLICT. #but chatot just. not giving them a chance. is so dumb. #I’d personally fix this by having a lil montage of hero/partner fucking up on jobs. A LOT. and chatot giving them a pass every time. #and let the perfect apple incident BE the one where he puts his foot down and doesn’t listen to them. bc he’d given them loads of chances. #and doesn’t want to hear any excuse. #but yeah. I legit dont mind him during that chapter except for that really stupid and frustrating moment. #NOW. CHAPTER 17. #UGGGGHHH WHERE DO I BEGIN #Him not believing hero and Partner about Grovyle and the future being in ruin? FINE. ACTUALLY GOOD. BC CHATOT WOULD BE SKEPTIC. #IT FITS HIS CHARACTER!! #BUT WHAT DOES SUCK. IS HIM GOING ‘Dusknoir isn’t the bad guy. he didn’t do anything wrong’ #WHEN HE LITERALLY KIDNAPPED HERO AND PARTNER RIGHT I N F R O N T OF HIM. #(​NO LITERALLY. HIS CHARACTER IS IN THE FRONT ROW WHEN IT HAPPENED.) #and him. having the GALL to tell hero and partner they must’ve been ‘seeing things’ and downplaying the HELL they went through. #despite them being missing for hours/days. his own guild recruits. and his angry sprite showing up. #like. I think that’s when I genuinely despised him. #that and him going ‘OH I BELIEVED YOU THE WHOLE TIME HEEHOO :)’ shit was so fucking annoying. #just playing it off as a joke the second the guild started to believe hero and partner. #IMAGINE IF HE W A S ACTUALLY TESTING THE GUILD’S TRUST. SHOWCASING HIM AS THE MORE RESPONSIBLE AND RESPECTFUL RIGHT HAND OF THE GUILD. #and yes. Brine cave he saves hero and partner. but at that point I just didn’t care anymore. #he fucked those two over so much. that I didn’t care what ‘valiant’ sacrifice he had. #and he grills Team Skull for what they did OFF SCREEN. they couldn’t even give us THAT. #<<< THAT or him outright saying sorry would’ve been nice. IKIK his ‘actions’ or whatever but. #eughh again this is all imo. I’m not trying to make people hate him or change their mind. #I’ll get into positives in the second post cause I’m running out of tags

You know it’s actually really nice being trans and true to myself as a person

Like, progress feels slow but every month I look back and think “Wow, that’s something unique I learned about myself!” And I am a much happier person because of that!

There is a girl under all of these repressed feelings that me and my friends are uncovering.

And she is just, Wonderful

#share your own stories too! I’d be delighted to hear them! #trans #196 #traa #rule #t4t #it’s actually really nice #to see yourself become a person #like I’m ACTUALLY UNIQUE AND AWESOME? #I THOUGHT THEY WERE JUST TELLING ME THAT!!!! #shoutouts to my irls #shoutouts to my online friends #shoutouts to my discord friends (y’all are great) #and #big shoutout to @intolunarorbit #I love you honey #did I put a whole other post in the tags? yeah #FUCK you gonna do about it

hey it’s lo !! hi !! just quickly sliding in to say thank you to everyone who interacted with my post last night. I was really, really deep down in the pit and even though I wasn’t in any immediate danger, your love and help and support did get me through the night.

though I’m so, so incredibly sorry to see how many of you have struggled with suicidal thoughts, it also means a lot to see that I’m not alone with this. thank you so, so much for the reminder.

sending you all so incredibly much love right now, my darlings 💗 lo out !!

#today was easier! I had a dentist’s appointment that I had to get to in the morning and it was the first time in four weeks that I’d #-left the house by myself #I managed! I did really good actually. I didn’t get overwhelmed from being in the public #and I beat my fear of dentists and got my chipped filling filled back in :-) #then I went to tk maxx for some quick valentine’s shopping (because let’s be honest: w/ my track record I’m not leaving the house- #-before valentine’s lol) and treated myself to some chocolate cake and even started journaling today for the first time in many years! #heavily thanks to you all last night for your suggestions #anyhow !! I hope you’re all doing alright tonight. please know that every single ounce of my love is headed to you in 3-2-1 NOW #hopefully most of it reached itms destination and you feel a little bit warmer 💗 #lo talks #tw suicide #cw suicide

connor dewar/brandon duhaime :: 8k

Summary:

“Brandon,” Connor says with a sigh. “There’s no baby in there.”

“Not yet,” Brandon says. Connor feels his stomach twist, almost like what he would imagine a baby kicking to feel like.

in these trying times of dewvorce, may i offer you 8k of pwp inspired by @stillfertile’s wonderful art which i had. several breakdowns about 🫶 anyway please enjoy!!!

#OFFICIAL FIC ANNOUNCEMENT 🗣️🗣️🗣️‼️‼️‼️ i wish i had pretty fic graphics but alas i have No Skill and also. so much work i should be doing bu #HI SHE’S HERE i would love to say this is a complete surprise drop except i have Anxiety & i needed to ask you guys about it beforehand #in my defense i started writing this in like. january far before any tragedy occurred #because square asked about my tags on their dewey2 art and she spawned like. a million more thoughts about it #including the part where i got absolutely kicked in the face with the lightning vision of those two lines. #like those two lines are the first actual lines of the fic i wrote ajdhkwdiowdjiw ANYWAY please be nice to me i know i am always like #‘this is not the first real fic i ever thought i’d post’ and if i had a nickel i’d have three but this is the first pwp i’ve ever posted #and it’s 8k and it’s not a fic for an exchange (although technically i did very much write this for the dewey^2 hivemind so.) #i have SO many things to say i have so many comments on this doc also i couldn’t pick a title for the LONGEST time and i finally decided on #this one but the full quote was too long: #all the rest of what i want with you that scares me shitless #so. i was angling SO hard to make a yung gravy lyric as a title bc i saw the video of him at a wild game but i couldn’t find a good one #and instead y’all got a very sentimental title l m a o. #liv in the replies #shout out to the extended universe this lives in and also my unhinged comments in the docs. #if you liked fun fuck a baby in him friday i’ll be here all week i promise i am the exact same in the comments as i am in the tags 🫡 #the NUMBER of times i wrote something in this by pulling it out of my ass and then actually went back and did the research & was RIGHT is. #far too high. also the amount of coincidental things that dropped while i was writing this (yung gravy song about pregnancy AFTER i wheeze #laughed myself into a yung gravy title the athletic player poll confirming my restaurant & bar choices from googling ‘st. paul good bars’…) #also if anybody got advice on formatting for these little announcements. help. this is different from my miro/luka one &i’m still not happy

many thoughts but zero math lmao

#this is vee speaking #and y’know ​that’s okay lmao #i mean that’s not ME i knew it was elementary school picture math instantly #and probably most people did lol #but that’s sasara-san’s many thoughts brain looking at it from a different angle than the majority and you can’t fault him for that lol #as much as i definitely want to clown him for not recognising a basic math problem LOL #i’d actually love to know how much harder that problem got if rosho wound up needing to use notes/solving skills for it lol

well. @outer-edges brought me back down to my personal pit of emotional distress and turmoil.

do you all have a moment to talk about my first ever terminal father-daughter brainrot, Daisy and Coulson from agents of shield?

#did you guys know they have nine hugs #I’d technically say 10 but #the ninth one is kinda. not coulson. so. #it’s weird #but nine hugs <3 #THEYRE NOT BIOLOGICAL WHICH WE ALL KNOW IS MY FAVORITE THING #did you know he also wrote her a goodbye letter where he told her he was proud of her #they also have an I love you #there’s a lot of near death experiences #hospital-esque scenes #arguments #quotes like #‘coulson means more to me than anyone’ #‘she’s the closest thing I have to a daughter’ #‘did you really think after everything we’ve been through you and me that there was any universe in which I left you behind’ #‘you’re the closest thing I have to family’ #‘if you want her you go through me’ #‘she’s not my daughter but she’s as close to family as I’ve got and I will save her no matter what the cost’ #< WHICH COULSON SAYS TO HER ACTUAL BIOLOGICAL FATHER #coulson comforting her when she’s upset or grieving #THEY HAVE ALL THE GOOD STUFF. ALL OF IT. #if you all think me about joel and ellie is bad #be glad you didn’t know me 4-5 years ago with these two #I was. so much worse about these two #it’s funny I chose the 4.08 screencap bc I love that scene so much #but it’s the only one here without physical touch 💀💀 #and I almost chose a very brief moment from 4.12 instead 💀 #agents of shield #phil coulson #daisy johnson

HE WOULDDDDD BE SO FUN TO BAKE W :(((((( i still haven’t gotten to know him completely so i’m going off the little i know + vibes + my prophetic blorbo vision BUT. i just feel like he’d eat from the batter. and get a tummyache. smh…….. butttt he also takes it very seriously!!! super seriously!!!!! so i think he could restrain himself .,…, he would look soooo cute wearing a cozy apron all covered in flour 🥺🥺 and he’s so focused on the baking . sits in front of the oven like a lil puppy so the cake doesn’t get burned….. and he’s so giddy when it’s finally time to eat. burns his tongue a lil i think 😭 but he doesn’t mind bc!!! it’s so tasty!!!! he’s so happy….

if it turns out to be a failure i think he’d get a lil depressed tho LMAO. so you have to take a big bite and coo abt how delicious it is :3 and then he feels a little better . whether you’re his s/o or friend i think he shows affection through food …. watches you dig in and just feels so content :((( wipes. a crumb from your lip. and eats it. very casually. personally i would Melt into the ground but he doesn’t understand the power he holds so he’s like . :) . completely oblivious ….. i can’t stand him (<- is so in love they can barely breathe)

AND . HIM LOVING CHEESECAKE. HE’S SOOOO FUCKING CUTE MOSS WHAT DO WE DOOOO 😭😭😭😭😭😭 sniffle ….. i just think he would go all 🥺🥺 if you made some for him …….. idk if he’d be the physically affectionate type or not bUT. i think he nuzzles into you like a big cat . bc he’s very thankful. and ofc he would also make lots of treats for you…… they may or may not include monsters but um . well . he did his very best so you HAVE to eat it and enjoy it sorry. that’s just how it is!!!!

#FUCKKKKKKKKK NOOOOO STOP IT POEASE GOD STOP IT 😭😭😭😭😭 #MOSS I CAN FEEL MYSELF SLIPPING AWAY WHAT HAVE YOU DONEEEEE #sob …. SOB……… #he’s actually the love of my life. #the love of OUR life he’s our boyfriend i think…… we might need to wife him up idk…………… #THANK YOU FOR SENDING THIS IN MOSS did you know that i adore you…. that i’d move mountains to see you smile …… #we’re plagued by him Together 🫂 #need to be in a qpr with him so bad </3 #:(((( HE’S ADORABLE WAHHHHHH #i wanna bake w him so badly he would actually be so insanely cute 🥺 #moss what if. we wife up both siblings…… and bake w them both……………….. just a thought >:3 #no but im actually genuinely extremely obsessed w this man 😭😭 ty for feeding me my beloved moss mwah mwah mwah!!!!! #ask tag ✩ #moss !! ✩
