#another year for the logistics

[hisbucky]

Athena: You want what now?

Eddie: Your blessing. To marry Buck.

Athena, visibly concerned: ...You are aware that you're both still underage right now, right?

Eddie, serious: I'm planning for the future, ma'am.

@piliyi, prompt —

go ahead. ask whatever you want. / tookai…

let it be said that tooru’s never claimed to be a guy who handles rejection well. most of the time it’s not enough of a reason to deter him from trying, but there’s always a little part of him that braces himself even in the asking.

so he’s hesitant, (he’s never done this before. he hasn’t even considered all the ways this could go wrong,) but. there’s something about kaien that makes him want to take that risk. it’s a kind of optimistic hope that he’s learned to let go of through the years, and it reaches back for him.

but first we have to set the scene. so, picture this: the air is warm with the scent of freshly baked pastries, the windows frosted over by the remnants of winter’s chill even as the beginnings of spring chases it away. kaien cuts a striking figure with his back resting casually against the counter, his grin piercing straight through tooru’s chest. tooru thinks he may look besotted, but he’s not in a position to judge — the glass display where his reflection sits isn’t what he’s paying attention to at the moment. it’s clichéd, perhaps, but in this snapshot of a moment he only has eyes for kaien.

“right,” he takes a deep breath. “no matter what, you’re not allowed to laugh, okay?”

and then, in the space of one single exhale, “willyougooutwithme?”

#ic. tooru. #piliyi #HHAPPY GOOD DAY BIRTH JUNI. i love you #ok impt notes out of the way tag spam ahead. #kaien: ask me anything / tooru: ok. do you think i’m hot #‘if tooru goes to argentina after hs when does this happen’ #this is actually an au where tooru doesn’t go overseas unless kaien rejects him. it’s very make your own adventure haha #no but actually i think this is like. the gap year after hs when he’s still figuring out the logistics of #living overseas. so right after hs but before everything else. if it didn’t happen in canon i’m pretending it did. it happened here. to me #special bom ment btw hehe(: #(subsection for livetext msgs i’m holding back as i write this because i want this to be a surprise) #i just tried to google kaien like he’s a well known figure. like he has a wikipedia page dedicated to him. #which i think he should but that’s a topic for another tag on another post #common [writing tookai] happenings: why is My heart racing

would lawbepo 69 do you think

this after i just posted about their size difference?

#anonymous #ive been a fan of ships with height difference for many years you dont understand #you must respect the logistics #its what you have to overcome for love #some things are just out of the window with couples like that #and thats fine its just another thing that makes them special

[cesium-sheep]

I am upset about the tree, and I am upset about how much longer I'm stuck with apartments where these things just happen, and I am upset that the timer on that is directly tied to the timer on my wife living hundreds of miles away. and I am upset at the possibility that the definition of home will change for one or more of us before she comes back for good. 4 years is a long time.

#so it's not even like. a guarantee. #that I'll get my nice house with all 3 of us at the end of all that waiting. #1 year was already hard and then we all got to live together for another year #which might make it even harder for them to be apart from each other #they probably had a lot of logistics conversations that I missed because I was too sick to think. #which means now that I'm awake I feel disoriented and confused. #it would probably help if she ever fucking answered text messages

is it weird to get married the day before your parents’ anniversary

ok now what if your parents’ birthdays are a few days either side of that date

#we’re tossing around either a random Saturday in April #OR the Sunday of Memorial Day weekend #the random april Saturday is better re: family dates overlap #but worse re: religion logistics (shabbat; I don’t mind but it might be hard to find an officiant who also doesn’t mind) #the Memorial Day Sunday is better for PTO usage and religion logistics and Leaves On Trees #but worse for family date overlap and travel pricing for out of town folks #(half the guest list is local another quarter is driving/train distance but still hotel and the final quarter is flying distance) #tree.txt #oh also my parents have said it isn’t weird and they Don’t care #if we did it next year we would share an anniversary (cute) but our fave venue is booked UP for 2025

[mercymaker]

haunted and vexed by the mal/halsin/astarion three-way scenario like

i spent so much time setting it up in the story so it all makes sense come on now

#the bg3 adventures #it took forever to figure out if it could even happen given their history #and then another ten years to sort out all the details and logistics of the act #and i finally got all the deets sorted #now someone write it for me lmao

[umilily]

i just realised it's almost my 2 year anniversary of living abroad...

#lily talks #haha remember when i said i'd be back in like a year #yeah... #lowkey don't want to go back to germany #but it's hard living in another country simply bc of logistics #and i think my bestie would be so disappointed if i didn't come back once i finish my degree... #i know i'm not responsible for her mental health #but it's hard not to be there when she's doing so poorly

[what-in-procrastination]

i’m just yelling to the void here but does anyone have any cool fun ways to talk abt how asexual I am on a date

#I cannot BELIEVE I agreed to this #do I want to go? yes #have I been freaking out bc I don’t understand straight ppl? very much so #how to be like absolutely do not touch me but in like a fun and chill way #😐😐😐I’m fucked #I have never felt more queer in my life and it is weirdly affirming while also a logistical nightmare #asexual #acespec #asexuality #how do I an adult explain to another adult that my sexuality is no thanks #but that I still want to vibe it out #is it even fair to ask another adult to let me vibe it out #it’s just that I had no interest in vibing it out as a teenager so now I’m an adult who doesn’t fucking know shit #and doesn’t really want to?? except that all of a sudden maybe I do?? #fucking christ #also no one is gonna read this but I for some reason need to defend myself—we’ve been coworkers for almost a year #which is how I got myself into a situation where I agreed on a date but that stuff didn’t come up #like it’s not like we met on a dating app or something and I didn’t state my fucking intentions or whatever we’re FRIENDS #he knows I’m queer but not the specific flavor

[thelittlespanielthatcould]

I just considered raising my next puppy in an apartment like a year before buying a house and my actual own response to that in my own goddamn head was "sweetheart, no."

#it makes literally no sense dont fucking do it @ me #I mean maybe id consider getting one a bit earlier renting a house but logistically realistically #ive waited 4 years. I can wait another 6 months. i know I can #can I though

[iamanoccasionaldoodler]

I'm not generally that materialistic but lately I've started literally dreaming about getting more orchids

#idk why this is the one thing i lust over more than anything #I LIVE IN A DORM!!!! THE LOGISTICS SIMPLY DONT WORK OUT #I ALREADY HAVE TWO!!!! #my grandma got me an orchid as a combo graduation/birthday present and i was like !!!!!! #and then she got me ANOTHER orchid for my birthday last year #and im torn between being like "grandma pls do not get me another orchid. i have to carry them on the plane and i only have two hands'' #and being like ''grandma pls get my orchids every single year i want to have 25 of them'' #this orchid shit is easy btw #my orchids have bloomed every spring since i got them idk what yall are struggling with #skill issue #no but fr my original orchid is the longest ive ever kept a plant alive and shes so happy and has like 10 flowers rn #i dont know why they have a reputation for being so tempermental

[bunnie-bits]

> insert long personal rant about add/autism where u don't know how to interact w ppl "normally" and try to throttle ur feelings bc once u decide a person is acceptable u talk way too much and treat them like you've known them for ages (out of New Friend excitement) which NT ppl get overwhelmed by and will ghost u over

#it's so hard to make friends #esp when u don't have a good third place to be at #idk if it's rly bc add/autism or bc I've never had a place to truly grow my roots into #i had friends but lacked a stable work environment when i lived in OR and now i have stable work but dont rly have friends here in WA 😔 #i almost don't even want to be here .. and if i was gonna leave I'd want to go to another country but idk how or where #i do know i need to be more polished professionally and would probs be much more desirable after another year #but like.. finances. logistics. being a black trans girlie. idk 🙃 I'll stop ranting now that last rb just hit a lil too hard

[partynthem]

got a presale code for the LA show let’s mf goooooooooo

#gonna try for sf and red rocks on friday too... hehehehehehehehehe #if they're gonna make us wait a whole year to see them i am making it worth the fucking wait #n since it's truly not for another year that gives so much time for logistical planning and money and everything... #they're making me believe anything is possible #😩🥺😢🥵😡🫣🫠😭😔 #txt

It was too icy to risk a walk last night so picture a very bundled up weirdo standing in the grassy, unfenced open space behind my apartment building, guiltly checking over my shoulder for anyone coming as I toss a ball for my unleashed dog who is blissfully unaware and very excited to be playing fetch.

She mostly ignores anything that is not ball when one is present and she is a very friendly pooch, but the last thing I want is her surprising someone afraid of or nervous around dogs or even another dog in general. No one came cause it was late and dark but I kept the leash in hand and kept the throws short enough Chili was never 10 steps away from me just in case.

Think I'm gunna invest in one of those super long dog leads for this kind of night or any time I physically can't walk due to whatever reason cause Chili needs some kind of exercise and her not being on a leash even with her collar on and her propensity to stick right by me still has me nervous.

#jacq life #chili dawg #the area in question is away from any roads or sidewalks #but its between my building the fenced in yard for a daycare and another set of apartment complexes up a hill #and people do walk between there during the day #a longer lead would mean i could still have some measure of control and she can still sprint a reasonable distance for fetch #modern problems require modern solutions #for 8 months out of the year i can go to the dog park literally every night but winter definitely has its set of logistical issues

[islandiis]

I'm on the bus to Keflavík rn and 😔 I don't want to leave... this sucks so much bc my whole life mentality is 'if it doesn't make you feel alive and happy, why do it' and every part of me just wants to cancel my flight home, go register at þjóðskrá and just take the leap bc I know there is never a "right time", but... logistically I know I need to get my license first. It just sucks leaving. It makes me feel incomplete :')

#out of character. #to be deleted. #cries and screams and #yeah. #It drives me bonkers bc I know there is never going to be a right time #I just have to take the leap #And I really want to take that leap now but logistically I need to give it another year or so for best results #It just sucks!!! #I feel homesick :')

[master-sass-blast]

How old do you imagine Piotr to be in the Deadpool movie verse?

Okay, I will answer your question properly, but first: my theory on how we identify the age of characters relative to our own ages! :D

(I don't have any research or psychological/sociological evidence to support this btw; this is just me blathering based on trends I notice in fandom and things I've noticed in myself. DO NOT TAKE IT AS GOSPEL pls and thanx.)

So, I personally believe that when we don't know the age of a character and we don't have context clues -do they have a family/spouse/kids/etc of their own, how long have they been working at the job they have, what kind of job do they work, what hobbies to they do in canon, etc-to guide us, we tend to closely estimate a character's age to our own. I think it partially because a lot of us in fandom/fanfic use fandom/fanfic to process our own experiences (and traumas), and having a character close to our age lets us do that. I also think that when we're attracted to a character that isn't given a set age or context clues for that age, we put them close to our own age (kink/specific dynamic fics not withstanding) because it makes the fantasy of being with that character more realistic and/or attainable. (Case in point: the number of Arcane fans that were caught off guard by Sevika being in her 40s.)

I think I was around 21 when I started writing the CHC. As such, I headcanoned Piotr at being in his early to mid twenties, so as to match my vision for a Reader insert I could relate to. And, as far as the CHC is concerned, Piotr is on the younger side. The Reader comes to the Institute at the age of 18, and I envision her being there for a bit before she and Piotr get together. I can't necessarily put a precise number on it because I didn't make a timeline for this series (which has come back to bite me in the ass multiple times, but oh well). However, I'd estimate it to be at least a year before they got together. As such, CHC Piotr is only a year or two older than the Reader (the same age gap that my husband and I have) so that things aren't... weird.

If we're only exclusively considering the movie? Mmmm, it's a hard one. I'm inclined to say he's at least in his thirties. I don't think a twenty-something year old would be given total mentorship of a teenager -especially since Piotr comes to America at the age of nineteen in the comics; it'd be a very short turn around time for him to learn how to master his mutation, have experience with conflict deescalation, learn English well enough to communicate effectively, and serve with the X-Men long enough that they're confident in his abilities to guide a young student appropriately. I think for that alone, he's at least in his early thirties.

I could see him being forty, even. I mean, who else would eat fucking Grape Nuts? That's an old man move if I've ever seen one.

#sass answers #piotr rasputin #welcome to my theory on how we identify with characters #i have done no research #i am literally pulling this out of my ass #also welcome to the logistical nightmare that is the chc #this is why i don't have a timeline of all the fics in chronological order #i'm making all this shit up #on account of my adhd #i have no concept of time #god especially when it comes to romantic relationships #i was friends with my husband for two years before i even realized i liked him #i have no idea what the proper timeline for a relationship is #like #people knowing they want to kiss each other within a month? #impossible #which is why i think i'm also demi-romantic but that's another topic for another day #also i have a multichap fic idea for divorcee reader and widower piotr #and then both being in their 40s/50s #feel free to ask if you ever want me to scream about it
