Me when I first got into perfumes: Eualch. Florals 😤 Why would anyone wanna smell so soft and generic? Gimme bold leathery scents! Vibrant juicy fruits! And keep those weak-ass one-note old lady flower smells FAR away from me 😤😤😤

Me now:

#🎶and at last I’ve seeeeeeen the liiiiiiight🎶 #my dumb ass out here deadass thinking flowers all smell the same and they all smell old 😭 forgive me florals my beloveds #I see an insta influencer say ‘so obviously I’m not a fan of florals’ and I’m like #‘ah. I was once the same way. come to the light or perish in ignorance you simpering coward.’ FLORALS KICK ASS #so far all of my favorite feminine scents are heavy in either peony or tuberose or jasmine (LOVE me some white florals) #currently wearing brightest bloom by bath and body works! perfect earthy floral for this overcast day #I need to jump in and see about masculine florals… I imagine they’re rare but I’d like to continue indulge even on my most masc days #peaches screams into the void

it actually baffles me that people think malenia was romantically involved with either gowry, a man who isn’t even really a man but rather a rot pest and not to mention a person she has never met. or maleigh marais, a guy who is obsessed with her and quite literally has a shrine to her in his dining room with a massive portrait and several prosthetic arms and legs adorning the walls. like the guy is a loser and likes to jerk off over her old prosthesis. i feel like when we hand it to millicent she’s going to asks why it’s all sticky

#she didn’t give birth to the girls they spawned from the rot after she bloomed #as far as we know she doesn’t even know they exist #honestly why is it such a hard concept to understand #people just really like the idea of malenia fucking that old shrimp guy i guess #and not once but 5 times according to them #‘well i’m the one who found her’ he says about millicent #'a mer babe in the swamp' #or something like that #which is an odd way of saying yes i’m her father and i made her #do these people think malenia went to war and was like hang on a sec i need to go quickly get pregnant and birth 5 kids and then ditch them #‘i am of malenia’s blood but in what capacity i know not’ #‘i could be sister; daughter; or simply an offshoot’ #(paraphrasing there a bit but it’s something along those lines) #millicents dialogue that seems to go over their heads #they have no trouble twisting the part about the pride and dignity bit but obviously switch off for the rest of what she says

at the end of summer in need of both money and potion practice, mia finally pays a visit to one of her neighbors. she chooses the cozy little cottage nestled amongst the trees. 

she briefly knocks before the door swings open and inside she’s greeted with a quaint living room. a little in love and a little jealous, she greets her new neighbor in a friendly manner and engages in a brief conversation. her neighbor cordially agrees to lend her his cauldron. 

mia thinks her new neighbor seems like the responsible type, but can’t put a finger on the odd aura around him.

#the sims 4 #ts4 #mia #chevril #ts4 gameplay #blooming save #idk why i'm even bothering #a little backstory maybe once a in a while #also mia's ancestors are probably rolling over in their grave #because she's canoodling with a fairy #if you read her bc post you'll probably know why #i kind of want ea fairies to complete the holy trio of occults before ts4 kicks the bucket #the floral witch #the antiquarian

i first got into the wtc fandom like 4 years ago and it’s so crazy that my desire to actually buy and play the games lasted this long. I feel like finishing umineko is a dream come true and my inner child is happy but i also understand it much better than what i understood from it as a tiny teen.

Random thought but I remember i wrote a pretty edgy au about George at that time because how him and Shannon were constantly ripped apart saddened me (I only watched the anime at that point mind you). I decided to make him a Sorcerer of Sorrow (I was 14) and his symbolic things were silver hyacints. I don’t remember his story well but it was smth about Bernkastel tricking him and yea stuff like that

Sometimes i remember him and think about redrawing him. I’m scared of reading his story because I’d most likely cringe at least a little bit but it was a massive au and i’m saving it to honor my younger self’s attempts to create something. Without silly things like this I probably wouldn’t be here with several oc stories i’m proud of, but also i would’ve probably forgotten about wtc as well.

Looking back at my ramblings i find it quite silly how i fit so many things in this post when i just wanted to write about the hyacints my mom got me today haha. Yeah they reminded me of Sorrow!George but now I’m filling them up with music from the Ikutoh playlist.

In the end for this post to have a deeper meaning: Don’t shame your young self for writing cringey stuff, at that point in life they thought that was the real deal and these clumsy steps are what help you to grow as an artist. Also flowers are great to use in stories for symbolism. Did you know that hyacints symbolise sorrow and a desire for forgiveness? They also symbolise joy, sincerety and purity btw.

#turning my hyacints goth #ramblings #artist support #childhood stories #childhood art #maybe once my hyacints bloom i’ll show them :] #the fact i’ve been an umi fan since 2020 is wild #i mean compared to others it’s not but yk #even when i wasn’t in the phase i was listening to the ost cuz wow #btw looking back at my art and thinking back to those times i really saw it in a different light #hyacinthus #umineko #wtc

Rist!! Question again! I’m tryna sleep and then this thought came to me.

In Tbhtbh, is Kiko still alive??? If so, (pls let it be so) is he with one of the other Winx girls or with Bloom’s parents?

If you tell me that sweet baby isn’t alive anymore, I swear I will cry! Crying rn just at the thought of it 🥺😢

He's not dead!! Granted, I don’t know where he is either, but I’m sure he's doing great :’)

#asks #fic: to be hunted to be haunted #I’ve had ideas about Valtor just showing up with him one day as like. a treat for bloom's 30 days no incident record or something #but a) I doubt he even knows that rabbit exists or would be able to remember to feed him regularly #and b) bloom is never gonna be 30 days without incident. so alas no kiko #but no bunny death either!!! #eden once again asking the real questions

Misc. photos from the past year or so ~

#image commentary in tags once again since they don't allow captions anymore and I feel weird using the alt text for that -- #1. napping bapy boye sneeping on his own foot as if it were a pillow #2. The little primrose that I have seems to bloom sporadically all year around as long as I bring it inside and don't let it freeze #in the winter. This was a flower that came up randomly like mid november lol #3. Rainbow where you can see a little bit of a second rainbow near the bottom of it :0 #4. CHILDREN.... love to see them..... #5. Halloween Candy ranking tierlist. not important enough to post on it's own. so throwing it in with one of these I guess lol #I am also not really a candy person at all and prefer bready stuff like cakes rather than chocolate bars (if I even have to have sweets #at ALL which usually I prefer savory food). I suspect the apple is controversial but.. I do love apples .... huzzah #actually am having applle and peanut butter snack right now as I'm writing this lol #6. Various bowls/cups/etc. that I got from a store at COMPLETELY different times like.. years apart from each other #yet at some point realized that they all mostly match in paint color and seem to be part of the same pattern #But I totally didnt make that connection until a few years ago when I was putting up dishes. I just bought them all invidually because it's #like 'oh cool! a cat' *1 year later* 'oh cool! a cat!' etc. lol.. I guess it must be a popular design if it's been around being sold that #long. #7. carne asada burrito and matcha bubble tea... oughhgh.... again one of my very rare meals where I actually go and get something.. #probably my favorite meal currently. Something about the Chronic Anemia makes me crave beef burritos madly despite only having one #maybe twice a year or so ghjbhj.. plus the beans.... onions.... many of my Diet Forbidden foods... Also of course the little aishas #are there.... somehow they shall split the meal together even though it's like 10x bigger than their bodies.. they are also hungry #and vastly anemic... huzzah to them... #8. I've had this shirt for a long time but it fits very weird so I can never find a way to use it in outfits?? But I recently had #an appointment where a doctor needed to be able to look at my back and it's one of the only actual Shirts that I have (mostly i just own #long robes or tunics or jumper dress type of things that would be hard to lift up or etc. like... I dont even own a single normal 't-shirt' #or anyting aside from one giant tshirt that I sleep in in the summer lol.) So I wore this there.. I forget how much I love the pictures on #it.. how pleasant... little hummingbird... AND I think one of the flowers is supposed to be columbine ... ! #photo diary

Without burdening you with the unnecessary painful details: I think I've upgraded from regular depression to major depression and I can't see the way out.

#most of it is financial stress but a lot of it is also being chronically overworked #but ask me if i can afford to take time off either job lol #i havent even gone hiking once this year and ive missed every flower milestone and bloom

Claire: my professor just shut a kid down for being offensive towards the amish but it's not like they're ever going to find out

#heroes #heroes nbc #nbc heroes #primatech #incorrect heroes quotes #claire bennet #source: twitter #specifically the twitter of someone I think I’ve always loved from the moment I saw him #and he just graduated college recently and even the thought of it has me bursting with pride #and OOOOUUUUUGGGGGHHHHHH I had a dream I kissed him and it just set all the old feelings blooming out of control #he’s never wronged me once #and I see no reason not to love him #and I think the love at first sight I felt for him was a big influence on how and why I ship paire

Being reminded of how badly S5 of Winx Club screwed Aisha over really be just, resisting the urge to rant so badly. 

#i just....S5 was truly where they went bloom focus above all else #even when you got the plot being villain wants to take over the infinite ocean #and that the villain is aisha's own cousin #and that aisha literally in one episode swears to defeat him #only for the ep prior to the finale to have aisha be captured at the end #and get her sirenix absorbed from her to activate the throne #and therefore be prisoner for the finale along with daphne while the others mainly bloom #get to do all the action #with bloom defeating the cousin #like yeah cool aisha gets to say its what he deserves when hes banished after all that #but like aisha got to do NOTHING to defeat him #cause the writers realized its not bloom focus #like you really telling me your gonna tell us he needs powerful sirenix #and instead of kidnapping the fairy of the god damn dragon flame #he kidnaps aisha just so bloom can save the day once more #are you fucking kidding me #same vibes as fucking doing a animals season #but sidelining the god damn fairy of animals #like at least roxy's relatives wont the villains #but aisha's cousin was and yet #nothing on aisha's end i guess

I have FOMO for so many things but once in a while, people rave about some content and I'm just like "nope, I actually won't consume this, ever, thanks"

#its not even because it looks like it wont be my thing #i think my brain just ... get tired of hyped shit so once in a while it whacks my interest in it before it can really bloom #that happened with uprooted and when i finally caved i actually loved it whoops #panda talks

guys what if I finally enter my vampire era

#''the flower that blooms in adversity is the most rare and beautiful of all'' #not the vampire diaries kind though. I mean the Dracula renaissance that's going on #I once had a dream about Alucard from Neftlix's Castlevania 😳 we flirted on a balcony #it was like a couple months ago though... the psychic foresight of it all... #eggwyrt I blame (thank) you for suggesting gankutsuou #the count wasn't a vampire but he sure had the vibe #what am i even saying LMAO #not kh

please please please your thoughts on teratai and kieran’s relationship so far in the story and where you think it’s heading 👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀

ok ive hold on to this ask for quite a while im ready to put it together

lemme summarize teratai: shes the school champion who has the promise of being the official paldean champion once geeta steps down. shes practically the most famous and sought out person. men and women want her. men even want to BE her judging by the amount of popularity she has. teratai has charisma. she gets confessed at least once a month (once a WEEK after her final major battle w nemona) but she politely turns them down. she is kind and helpful, assisting juniors with their work and inspiring seniors and helping teachers too. teratai just has this role that her actions help people.

teratai shines the most during battles coz her serious and charming nature just blows everyone away. everytime she sends out her meowscarada or shiny volcarona ppl are just swooned at the fierce smirk on teratais face.

of course her best friends arven nemona and penny are close with her. whatever problems she has, they know. teratai is friendly but these 3 know her better as time flies by.

speaking of nemona. teratai often has battles w her the most. of course, so far teratai has won all the battles and not once did nemona feel sad or crestfallen. if anything, the losses made her more motivated in battling. teratai is just as pumped. no one can beat her. and battling her once makes someone stronger and a better person.

she also has a legendary. to hv a strong pokemon choose her is somethng she never thought much about. koraidon chose her and arvens just yes please take him i dnt want him and teratais just okay. its normal for her.

at least, thats what she thought of before she met kieran.

now i hcanon tht the kitakami trip is a month long. enough to form a nice normal friendship w someone. teratai is used to ppl wooing over her esp juniors so to see kieran in awe of her is nthing new.

hwever, as they grow closer as field trip partners teratai starts to get kieran to open up more. note: teratai is used to ppl like kieran but shes never close to someone like him. to not hv her 3 bffs close by obvsly teratai becomes friendlier to kieran (and it extension carmine). so teratai convinces kieran to walk by her side, talk to each other, share lil life adventures together, battle one another.

teratai is a person who likes to tease so sometimes she teases kieran cutely. about how hes really good at battling and hw passionate he is when commanding his pokemon. teratai thinks its cute.

she also cutely teases that the lil mole on his neck is adorable. and gets surprisingly flustered when kieran teases back about the lil mole under her left eye. it made her heart skip a beat but she thinks its just the moment.

teratai then surprises herself when SHE casually said tht they can go together to the festival. kieran was surprised too but happily accepts.

now i hv a fic in my mind about their festival date but long story short it was a magical moment to them.

now remember what i said abt hw teratai always wins n esp w nemona every nemoma loses she just laughs happily? teratai never thought much about it. she always assumes battling her brings out the best in people.

that is until she battled kieran during the whole ogerpon ordeal.

she saw how broken he is. she saw how HATEFUL he is towards her. the moment she chose to not tell the truth (in vain hope to protect kieran). the moment ogerpon chose her. these were the last straws of their beautiful friendship.

its broken and for the first time, teratai sees clearly how her actions brought out dire consequences.

#i say summarize and i whip out a whole essay HAHA #ill arrange my thoughts clearly once im free and dnt hv a headache #but yea theyre so delicious to me. i feed #rn where theyre heading in indigo disk #since tht battle teratai is hurt. guilty. haunted. #this is the 1st time somone openly hates her n its someone teratai feels somethng so deep #like ok she has a crush on arven. and by crush i mean carnally #but theyre botb stupid on the get go n refuses to destroy the friendship #so the feelings never convey #kieran tho. teratai knows he likes her eventho they just met #so she relishes on the idea #nt realizing that SHE starts to like HIM as well #her feelings start to bloom but this time she knows kieran has feelings for her 1st #she just never realizes her feelings for kieran #until the final battle #when the guilt settles in #even when she got back to paldea it hurts #when she sees ogerpon. when she sees the trinket he bought for her at the festival #it hurts #fr once teratai keeps it to herself first n this worries her 3 bffs #her mom knws 1st n this is coz shw saw teratai cry a dat after she got back from kitakami #OOUUUGGHHH SO MUCH THOUGHTS. TALK TO ME!! #ask #anon #about pokemon

like at this point im just trying to keep the world safe for myself and those immediately around me. my initial reason for wanting to learn to drive is so that if my mom ever has an emergency i can take her so we dont have to spend a fortune on an ambulance. my current reason to get a license is so that my sibling and i arent trapped in our own home for weeks on end.

the sidewalks in this city are so atrocious that i am always genuinely amazed when i see a non-electric wheelchair user get on these disgusting rattling falling apart buses on their own. these stupid slabs of concrete are either uneven, cracked into oblivion, have an insane grade percentage, or a mix of all three that as a person that can keep my balance most of the time, i still trip and fall flat on my face. by the way, whos fucking idea was it to just decide wheelchair users dont get to use the light rail? the train? anything that could be more efficient?

aside from degree benefits of being a librarian and the privilege of even being able to go to college, i quit striving for what ive been preparing myself to do for literal years because im realizing just how shitty a state the world is in right now. if one more library goes down the shitter here because either no one can manage it or the state just decides to throw it out for more commercial space or whatever i might just blow a gasket.

i dont care about making money, i dont care about fucking living at this point, but i swear to fucking god if this life is ruined for somebody else, somebody still with hope in their hearts that things will get better, then my patience with this government and the complacency in this awful community will wane so quickly i might as well be in a mental hospital because of how insane it makes me.

#i was thinking about palestine specifically in that last paragraph #that and the kids literally anywhere that want to be the next flower that blooms #im so tired of living in this world and thats precisely why im not killing myself #call it selfish or whatever but theres no way in hell that once im able to make a difference i will try my damnedest to make it better #im tired of the hostile environments im tired of inaccessibility im tired of useless massacre im tired of humans im tired of hate #its all too much the sound the violence the extinction the climate the sterilization everything everything here sucks #and if i can just make something #one thing #even if just a little better #then it would be worth it.

the first thing people always notice about alana is her eyes.

#headcanon. dr. bloom. #headcanon. dr. bloom. a good forensic psychiatrist; maybe the best. #[they’re the frost of water turning to ice before its full freeze in the earliest winter morning. #they’re the color it turns as it thaws slow slow slow and then freezes again. they’re so cold. #but they’re purely near white blue. wolffish and beautiful at once. they can be so cruel. and she can have the kindest eyes you’ve ever #seen. she can make you feel incredibly loved or she can absolutely crumble you with a glance. she KNOWS it too. #all her emotions show through her eyes is also the problem. she lies so well because she forces herself to feel it. so potent. #she can replicate an emotion painfully well for herself. she fucking hates it. it’s so hard and so much to deal with. but without it— #she wouldn’t be her. she’s explained the way her empathy works to a few people and I distinctly remember it was trish who was like #‘Jesus Christ I wouldn’t want that shit’ without even meaning to before going ‘it sounds so overwhelming to deal with’ before Alana broke #down in tears seconds later because she’s not hard and if you think she is you’re buying what she’s selling and you’re being grifted. #Alana bloom is my most dangerous muse and I write kitty ‘nexus of nothingness embodied’ valentine. #but I tend to think: would kitty be tricked into… anything by Alana? oh yeah. like. immeasurable yeah. a yeah the size of Texas. #Alana finds your weakest point because every single diamond has a flaw and she just g e n t l y begins to chip. #she’s good!hannibal. she’s the actual good doctor like. I think Tara Jess and I have unironically convinced the fandom that’s her title. #(lmfao it isn’t it’s lecter’s but book!lecter deserves it. show!lecter was a shit therapist. at least book!lecter was amazing at his job.) #and you know who his protege is? Alana!!!! she’s so deadly I’m in love with her and I’ve loved her for years now. #me: this is the side character I’ve written for more than a decade who causes a chain reblog reaction every time I post that gif set #if you know you know.]

It’s been a long time since I’ve posted any serious LotRO screenshots.

Taken during the Gundabad mission “Laid to Rest”.

#lotro #last week i took this #cool lighting in there #i think my graphics settings were on high when i took this #im looking very intently at the lotro screenshot sideblog #but ive decided i will only put screenshots that were taken on ultra high there #also i know some people fool around with their graphics settings to get fun effects for their screenshots but i will not #i did that once and my bloom made the game blinding to look at #no matter what i did i couldnt get it back to normal. even the 'revert to default' button didnt fix it #i ended up having to uninstall the game wipe all my preferences/docs/screenshots and then reinstall it #never again #i am the proud owner of clip studio paint if i want to adjust the lighting it can definitely be done in post
