another snippet while I slave away lol

this one hurt a bit to write x

“My mums are lesbian!” he blurts out, excited enough to attract the attention of his teacher. When she appears, he grins at her sweetly; the kind of smile that has melted many hearts, though Nico is unaware of how many people know he exists. “More paper, please.”

“Nico, you haven’t even tried with your first one.”

She isn’t harsh at all, but he has slowly learnt to stop asking follow-up questions. Six months of exasperated ‘I don’t know, Nicolau’s has taught him that.

He shrugs. “Okay.”

He learnt what a shrug was the other day, when Mapi told him off for doing it to her. (“Don’t shrug your shoulders at me, Nicolau Putellas!” she had chided playfully. “All I asked was which of your mamas’ houses we need to go to.”)

“Nico, what’s ‘lesbian’?”

“Mama says football is lesbian. Basketball might be lesbian! That’s why your sister is lesbian.”

“My mum says that lesbians kiss girls.”

“Mama kisses girls! And Mami. And they used to kiss each other but now they don’t speak and me and my sister swap houses.” Nico begins drawing it out for Paula when she peers at him, befuddled. “Here is Mama’s.” A big square, a glamorous-looking woman inside of the blue shape; a stick with a circle on the end of it; the notes he sees in his piano music floating in the air. “And…” he says, tongue sticking out as he concentrates on the opposite half of the page, “here is Mami’s.”

He draws a football. He picks up the red crayon too, and uses both the blau and the grana simultaneously. “Mami plays football for Barça.” He draws two lines on Alexia’s t-shirt. 11. “Mami made me get 11 at football.” Nico had originally worn the 10, but then the affair had come to light and Alexia was suddenly deep in conversation with his coach and apologising to the boy Nico then had to swap shirts with.

Then, he drops the crayons in his hand and searches for the stack near Paula. He selects the purple one, gripping it tightly, his friend still listening to him with intrigue.

“This is me and Lela.” Two stick figures are drawn in the middle of the page; the middle ground between each of the squares.

Nico sometimes feels stuck between it all.

When Mami got very sad, he and Elena went to stay with Mapi and Ingrid for a few nights. He held his little sister’s hand as much as he could. He always tries to remind her that he is right there with her.

Mami once told him that it was his turn to protect Elena. Nico hasn’t forgotten that.

“I keep Lela safe.” He has encouraged her, slightly selfishly, to call him ‘skipper’, which he has picked up from the Lionesses. Luckily, Alexia has not told him off for it because she doesn’t know what it means. “Lela is my little sister. She is a baby. She doesn’t remember what it was like when Mama and Mami loved each other, but I do.”

The purple crayon scrapes on the page as he presses it into the white, colour rubbing out in the shape of a heart. “Lela and I are together. Mami tries to take me from her sometimes, but I don’t let her.”

His story – and ability to make Paula pay attention for longer than ten seconds – has already garnered the quiet attention of his teacher, but she moves closer as Nico continues. The four-year-old leaves out how Alexia usually is inviting him to training with her. With Elena yet to show any interest in football, it remains her and Nico’s special thing, and, of course, she misses him when it is not her turn.

You usually give your permission if you have no other plans. Alexia is upset that the only hindrance is the little boy who once worshipped her like a god.

“Nico, why did you want two pages?” asks Paula curiously, assuming he is finished now that his whole family is displayed on the piece of paper.

He frowns. “Because now I have to do this.” And with that, he tears the sheet in half.

Paula’s mouth drops open in surprise, as does his teacher’s.

“What’s wrong?” comes a mature voice, a hand placed on his shoulder just like it is when the other children in his class cry. Nico doesn’t cry. He is strong and brave, like a little soldier. “Did you not like your drawing?”

“No,” he replies neutrally, “half can live with Mama, and half can live with Mami.”

“But now you are ripped down the middle.”

He traces the jagged edges of the halves of his life. One leg is on your side, the other on Alexia’s.

“I know, but it’s okay. I don’t cry.”

.・゜✭I gave up on my makeup routine and started a new one.・゜✭

.・。.・゜✭・.・✫・゜・。..・。.・。.・゜✭・.・✫・゜・。..・。

Hello it’s Key, your local fashionable loser <3

Now since you know where I am you get my makeup looks but if you don’t, I’m somewhere in 2001-2009 being the trashiest b*tch that I should be <3

I’ve decided to just become eerily accurate to the era of makeup that I really wanted to do, I should have done this a long time ago but just didn’t master it until now.

And without further ado, let’s get into my makeup look:

.・。.・゜✭・.・✫・゜・。..・。.・。.・゜✭・.・✫・゜・。..・。

.・゜✭ Foundation: Milani Conceal + Perfect 2-in-1 Foundation + Concealer .・゜✭

✭ Shades: Nutmeg (Summer), Amber (Winter)

✭ I did not buy the dream mousse foundation yet due to being afraid if it doesn’t fit my skin tone because I am ORANGE IN THE FACE, like idk if they had my shade yet.

✭ To be more accurate with my look I stopped wearing concealer and powder (unless I’m doing an early 2010s look) because it didn’t look right on my face anymore, but if you want to keep wearing it then you do you, boo <3

.・゜✭ Bronzer: E.l.f. Putty Bronzer .・゜✭

✭ Shade: Sunkissed

✭ Ah yes, a trashy girlies best friend if she didn’t own foundation yet.

✭ No contouring, so you just have to wing it and put so much on your face that you look perfect <3

✭ I would say, be like Christina Aguilera in her Stripped era, the Jersey Shore girlies, or any of the WWE Divas for sure.

.・゜✭ Eyebrows: Maybelline Express Brow Ultra Slim Pencil and/or Nyx Lift and Snatch Brow Pen .・゜✭

✭ Now, thin eyebrows are the KEY to your look, whether they’re fully shaven or just tweezed to your heart’s content.

.・゜✭ Eyeshadow: Covergirl Stunning Smokeys 715 Eyeshadow Palette .・゜✭

✭ My rules to makeup are ALWAYS a smokey eye with nude lip, or nude eyeshadow with black lipstick.

✭ I don’t think I’ve ever looked good with a black eyeshadow/lipstick combo unless I put on less of a smokey eye.

✭ Nude eyeshadow with normal lip gloss is perfectly fine, it reminds me of the pop girlies first era of going into their music career (ex: Rihanna’s Music of the Sun, JoJo’s, Paula DeAnda, Cassie, Christina Milian, etc.)

.・゜✭ Eyeliner: Covergirl Exhibitionist 24-Hour Kohl Eyeliner .・゜✭

✭ Eyeliner is heavily important depending on what you’re style is, whether you live in the glamorous hot topic or you just want a little on your waterline, your choice.

.・゜✭ Mascara: Maybelline Great Lash .・゜✭

✭ Everyone used to wear this all the time. Always remember, the clumpier, the better <3

.・゜✭ Lips: Basically any sweet scented lip gloss .・゜✭

✭ I rarely use lip-liners anymore and YES, I do trust people with brown lip-liners on (rock of love reference everyone.)

✭ I do recommend concealer lips but that’s just for if you want to look fashionable or not lol.

Well that’s about it for my in-depth look, I hope you enjoyed it and maybe even got some inspiration from it!

.・゜✭Always remember to let it rock ✫・゜・

Nobody ever talks about how unhinged Harvey is in therapy with Paula (I’m mid season 5 rn no spoilers without warning plz) and here’s some of what Harvey’s said during therapy sessions (paraphrased) :

P: What would you say if Donna walked in here right now?

H(with smug smile and wave): Hey, Donna

“Why do you always want to talk about my feelings?”

“If I knew all you would want to do is talk about my feelings I wouldn’t have come here in the first place”

“Because when someone points a gun on you you don’t run you take the gun out of his fucking hand and turn it back on him!”

All I can say is Paula definitely didn’t have any other patients like him 🤷‍♀️

chapter thirty nine

in which orion has leukemia, and calum doesn’t know.

calum hood x fem!oc

read other chapters

november 19, 2018 san diego, california orion

Today is the final day of the tour, and it’s also the day that they’re in Madrid. I should be there, and I know that fact very well. Emelia is off for Thanksgiving break, so I would’ve been, too. We could have gone, but instead, we are at my family’s house doing practically nothing.

I spend a long time in the shower. It’s nice to stand under the stream of water because it camouflages my tears. There’s no clarity whether the droplets are tears or water and that keeps me feeling a little less shitty for how much I’ve been crying lately.

It feels like any time I get a moment alone I start crying.

Missing Calum is hard enough, but knowing how little life I have left to live is an awful, gut wrenching feeling.

I’ve had my phone in hand with Calum’s contact open far too many times to count. I’ve typed messages and deleted them. I’ve even considered deleting his contact altogether to make reaching out to him next to impossible since I clearly don’t have the guts to reach out and it’ll torment me every day.

I want him here with me. I do. I want that more than anything. I can’t even call it a change of heart because I know that’s what I’ve always wanted. Some kind of switch flipped in me when I saw the pictures of him with Paula and I finally admitted it to myself.

That should be me is all I could think, staring at the photos of them hugging, leaning close to each other to talk at the bar. I’ve craved a hug from Calum from the moment he left me.

One of the worst thoughts I’ve had is what if I reach out and he doesn’t reply? What if I’m too late? What if I’ve fucked it all up beyond repair? That fear is one of the many things holding me back. I’m scared to reach out and it ends up that I’m still alone and aching to have him home with me.

I’m still scared of the idea of watching me die and how that will take a toll on him. The thought is still terrifying, but I still, selfishly, want him to be with me.

I haven’t told anyone this. I’m sure the second I tell Emelia she will grab my phone and call him herself.

Em and I are planning on streaming the Madrid show if we can tonight, assuming someone goes live to share the show. She said if she has to she will call Crystal and have her Facetime us the whole time, but that’s not my favorite option.

I finish up my shower and get dressed in another random combination of sweatpants and sweatshirt, putting on my bunny slippers that my moms got me for my birthday. I don’t know how I’ve made it to 22 without a pair, but I’m grateful for the adorable, cozy footwear regardless. I find Emelia in my bedroom when I exit the bathroom, scrolling on her phone, perched on the edge of my bed that she must have decided to make for me.

“Paula and Lucia are with them,” she announces, holding her phone up to me.

I get closer to her, sitting next to her on my bed so she can give me her phone. It’s opened to Paula’s Instagram story, which is a photo of her hand, complete with her new, dazzling engagement ring, Lucia’s hand, and Calum’s hand, all three reaching for a box of donuts from my favorite donut shop in Madrid. She has the location tagged at Retiro.

“For old time’s sake,” she wrote on top.

I tap the screen, letting the next image on her story show. It’s a selfie of Paula, Lucia, Calum, Luke, Sierra, and Crystal. They’re sitting by the water at Retiro. I should be there. I wish I was there.

I sigh, closing out of the Instagram app and giving Em her phone back. “Looks like they’re having fun,” I say, my voice cracking as I try to stifle the tears I have forming in my eyes.

Emelia wraps an arm around me and rests her head on my shoulder. “I’m sure they all wish you were there just as badly as you want to be there.”

I sniffle and wipe the tears from my eyes. “Maybe.”

She sighs and thankfully doesn’t say anything else about it. “C’mon, come help me write my paper. I don’t wanna have to deal with it on Thanksgiving.”

If it was up to me, I’d spend the rest of the day in bed alone, but when Em is here, she gives me only one allowance of wallow-in-bed-and-pretend-to-nap time per day. It’s been almost every day that I tell her I want to take a nap and then instead I just lay in bed and cry. I’m sure she knows that’s what I actually do, but we don’t talk about it.

—

As if she could read my mind from all those miles away, Paula goes live for the concert. As far as I can tell, she’s in the VIP section. It doesn’t look like many other people are watching her live, so I’m almost certain she is streaming just for me.

Emelia and I watch together, curled up in the guest bedroom with a bottle of wine and a huge bowl of popcorn. We sing along the whole time, tears in my eyes for most of it. It’s my first and only time seeing the show from the whole tour. I knew it would hurt too much after the breakup, and before I wanted to be surprised by it in San Diego. Em and I both knew I needed to see it at least once. I didn’t think through the fact that I possibly wouldn’t actually see the San Diego show.

Calum not singing his verses in Amnesia and Ghost of You cuts me deeply, which has been true since the breakup based on Twitter, and both Emelia and I cry when they play those two. Cal doesn’t even face the crowd during those songs.

As the show nears its end, in a break after Jet Black Heart, Calum steps to his microphone.

“Madrid!” He starts, and Luke and Michael snap their heads to him, shocked. I guess they weren’t expecting him to take a talking break. The crowd cheers loudly at his pronunciation, since he says it like Mah-dree rather than Muh-drid. He hadn’t spoken the whole show, and, if I know Calum, he hasn’t been speaking much on tour at all, especially not in the wake of the breakup.

“Excuse me if I fuck this up, but I asked a friend to help me with this translation. If it’s wrong, blame her,” he says and he laughs.

“He’s talking about me,” I hear Paula say. She knows I’m watching. I’m sure of it.

“Tu ciudad tiene un pedazo enorme de mi corazón. Te he extrañado y te quiero.” Calum fumbles through the Spanish that he reads off a scrap of paper. The crowd screams louder then than they have so far for anything else they’ve done tonight. I’m sure no one expected Calum to have said more than two or three words in Spanish, so it’s exciting to have him say something beyond te quiero and gracias.

“Uh, back to English,” he says while he tucks the piece of paper into his back pocket. “I’m sure some of you know why I love this city, and that’s never going to change. Thank you for having us tonight, the last night of this tour. You’ve been incredible and we will never forget you. This next one is one of my favorites, and again, I’m sure some of you know why. Let’s take it home, okay? This is Want You Back!”

The lights turn off and the room of people screams when the opening notes resound throughout the arena they’re playing. Throughout this song, Calum actually bobs his head and sways a little, getting into the music the way he used to but hasn’t throughout the entire show. He seemingly stares directly at Paula’s phone, and I wonder if he knows she’s streaming the show for me to watch it.

“Are you gonna call him?” Emelia asks in the middle of the song.

I look to her, tears filling my eyes again. “I don’t know, Em. I’m scared.”

She doesn’t say anything else then, just nods.

At the end of Want You Back, which is supposed to be their last song aside from the encore, Michael and Ashton take their bows and Luke and Calum just clap at them. Michael and Ash look confused, but just wave to the crowd. They check behind their shoulders and find Calum and Luke still at their mic stands, but they continue their exit from the stage.

“Madrid, for an extra something special this evening, Calum and I decided we’d like to treat you to a little surprise,” Luke says. From the side of the stage, an acoustic guitar is being brought to Luke.

“If it’s alright with you, I’m gonna steal Luke’s mic stand!” Calum says into his mic. The crowd cheers and he hands his bass to the stage tech that brought Luke the guitar. Cal is now center stage, looking incredibly nervous. “We’ve never played this one before, but we hope you like it.”

Look at the stars Look how they shine for you

Calum sings softly while Luke strums the guitar. Luke is smiling widely at Calum like he’s a proud parent.

Your skin, oh yeah, your skin and bones Turn into something beautiful And you know, you know I love you so

Cal is crying again, but he manages to sing each word clearly.

And you know, for you, I'd bleed myself dry For you, I'd bleed myself dry

Every word seems to cause another tear in my eyes. Their cover of Yellow is officially my new favorite of theirs, and I know Cal chose it for me. It’s as clear as day. As they finish the song, the crowd erupts again, and then Luke holds his arms out to Cal, encouraging everyone to applaud him specifically. Cal bows and takes a step back, his hand resting on his chest. He waits for Luke to bow too before they walk offstage together.

As soon as they’re off the stage and the crowd starts to beg for an encore, Paula flips her phone around so we can see her, Lucia, Marta, and Crystal huddled together and smiling.

“For you!” Paula screams and then she turns the camera back so the boys can finish their usual set.

I don’t know how and I don’t know why, but Calum has just made me feel way more loved than I deserve, and it makes me want to reach out even more, but I still don’t know if I can or how I should. I officially want — no, need him back in my life. I need him by my side. I don’t know what it’ll take for it to happen and I’m terrified of whatever will be in between, but I know I’ll feel much better when he’s back in my life.

Em looks at me with teary eyes as the boys take the stage again.

“Em... I miss him so much.”

She hugs me tightly. “I know you do.”

Dropping my DCLA post-canon Christmas hcs in the middle of february because I saw a TikTok and got inspired

In the Castillo household, it’s obviously gonna be Germán, Vilu, Ludmila, maybe Fede is there, maybe he went back to Italy, who knows, Angie, Ramallo and Olga cause they’re always there, Fran shows up at some point because she didn’t get a flight to Italy in time, Olga bans anyone from entering the kitchen for the whole day because she takes holiday food very seriously, but Angie goes in anyways, and they keep gossiping about who knows what, secret Santa is as chaotic as your imagination allows, and the food is the prettiest thing you’ve ever seen, until Germán starts serving Vilu, Olga almost cries

Obviously in the Benson mansion there’s the Valentes, Ámbar, not Alfredo because he’s travelling, or dead, and also I don’t like him, depending on what type of scene you’re looking for Sharon got permission to go home for the holiday, since couldn’t afford tickets to Mexico, and refused both Ámbar’s and Luna’s offers to buy them for him, Simón is there too, trying to escape holidays with his extended family and his dad’s overbearing attempts to mend their relationship, Matteo is also there, dinner is obviously on Monica, with Simón, Miguel and Luna taking turns going into the kitchen to try and sneak a bite, she catches them every time, and when she doesn’t, Ámbar does, and they have to wear a santa hat with “Shame” written on the front, Matteo’s puts Luna wearing it and pouting as his lockscreen, Rey and Maggie show up for dinner, having been released from their court mandated community service, Matteo, the idiot, suggests lighting a fire, because that’s what they did back in Italy, the Valentes, Ámbar and Simón glare at him for the rest of the night, and every time he tries being affectionate to Luna, she walks away and goes to Simón instead, leaving Ámbar even more mad at him, as her boyfriend is too busy performing best friend duties to cuddle with her

In my ideal world, Antonio goes to jail (or gets run over by a car, because that would be ironic) and so Paula makes ammends with the Urquizas and they decide to have a joint Christmas party to celebrate that, Victor is still back in Spain because I’m mad at him, so it’s Paula, Alex and Manuel, Alice, Mariano, Helena and Bia, Helena invites Thiago since he doesn’t exactly have a family to celebrate with, Paula all but demands Carmín comes, they also invite Pietro so he doesn’t have to eat alone with his cousin (they wanted him to cook for them), and since it’s already a lot of people, and the residency is pretty empty with the other guys having gone home to the families, Thiago invites everyone to go there instead, Pietro is happy to cook in his own kitchen, the night ends with the Urquiza sisters singing a Christmas song by the piano, everyone joins in, and when the time to say goodbye comes, Thiago forbids anyone from leaving, since it’s very late and they’re all tired from having eaten so much, and we all know what happens when you drive late at night, so everyone who doesn’t live there ends up sleeping in one of the spare bedrooms, and the ones who do, sleep in their own rooms

Chapter 03 | I won’t hurt you

“I have lost all my pride

I have been to paradise

And out the other side

With no one to guide me”

April, 2023, Munich

In the last few months people started to talk about me in the past tense. “Remember Araujo? I wonder what she’s been up to.” All of my idols in female tennis have already retired. The newest article about me in The Athletic reads “From a Supernova to a Dying Star: Araujo's Career and the Fragility of Greatness”. Times have changed. Still, I was expected to be in Charleston right now, probably losing to Paula Badosa.

“Maybe I’m just too old.”

“We’re the same age.” Leon giggles.

“I just don’t want to feel like it wasn’t worth it. Like I just wasted my youth.”

“You know, my father always tells me that as long as I’m playing I won't be able to truly realize how incredible the things I've achieved are. Because I still want more. Because I still feel like there's so much to achieve. We’ll only know if it was worth it once we're old and gray, looking at the dusty trophies and medals on the shelf.”

We’re in his apartment cooking dinner. It’s way too easy to be around him, the whole thing is way too domestic. He has a kitchen towel on his shoulder and I’m leaning against the counter, blushing, staring at him.

“Are we idiots for doing this again?” I’m biting my lower lip, trying to hide my smile.

“Yes. Absolutely.” He laughs and I can’t help laughing with him.

We were supposed to have a dinner date together, if I was lucky maybe hook up. But the next morning, naked in his bed, tangled together; I just couldn’t leave. And he didn’t seem too bothered about it. That same morning, without saying a word he opened space for me in his closet. At night, when we were cuddling again after making love, he whispered.

“Please, stay. I want you to stay. You can stay as long as you like.”

My father wasn’t too happy about it. Last time we talked was through text a couple days ago.

dad:

I'm so incredibly disappointed in you.

Let me know when you decide to get back to work.

You know I have to make my plans around yours.

liv:

i’m not giving up clay season, just taking a break

i’m playing stuttgart for sure

dad:

Yes, I’m sure ‘taking a break’ and playing Stuttgart will help you win Roland Garros.

That makes a lot of sense.

I’m being ironic, by the way.

Munich is beautiful and I’ve been filling my days touristing the Bavarian city. Starting my mornings with a traditional breakfast of white sausages, sweet mustard and freshly baked pretzels at one of the city’s many cafes. Then I’ll wander the winding streets of the old town discovering hidden gems, cozy pubs and quirky boutiques. I turned off my phone and decided to stay out of social media. For me it felt like a cleansense, but my family couldn’t see it that way. Chiara got in charge of visiting me and trying to take me back home.

“So… You’re living with him?” She was being careful with her words at first. She accompanied me on one of my daily walks and we were sitting at a charming cafe in one of Munich's less busy neighborhoods. It’s very cold and we’re delighting ourselves with some great hot chocolate.

“Something like that. We haven’t really talked.”

“You should go to therapy.” She soundly put her chocolate cup on the table, looking me in the eye with a worrisome expression.

“Oh.”

“I’m serious, Liv. It helped me a lot.”

“You’re in therapy?”

“I’ve been doing therapy for the past 3 years. And you’re like, a pro athlete, you should be doing it from day 1.”

“Oh.”

I had no words. My little sister looked and sounded so mature. When did I lose that? Or maybe I never had it. Maybe I was never really an adult. Never had to, only had to be a player.

“It’s a lot, what you have to deal with. What you had to deal with since you were a kid. And our family doesn’t help. Mom is a narcissist and dad is an asshole.”

She holds my hand and I’m shocked.

“Chiara! What. I mean. You’re right. But you shouldn't say it.”

“You never thought about firing dad? And maybe get a coach who understands you and respects you?”

Her words take me back to my first Wimbledon title. What it took for me to get there and how father made me feel.

“And don't patronize me, yes, of course. But he wouldn't take well and I never won a fight against him. I would rather just retire, honestly.”

“Well, that’s crazy. When did you become the type of person who prefers the easy way out?” Chiara looked angry. “You’re miserable and if there’s any chance you can still be happy playing, I think you should take it.” She takes another sip of her hot chocolate. “What about your friends? Isabella is living in Munich, did you know?”

"That 's true!” Isabella and I used to be inseparable, back when I used to answer my friends' texts and actually had a social life. “I’ve forgotten. God, it’s been so long since I talked to her.”

“Well, here’s your chance.”

Chiara was right. So I called Isabella and set up a lunch date; and then I looked for a therapist. Leon wanted to see my sister again before she went back to Portugal, so we went home together and they cooked us dinner.

I left the kitchen for a moment and, when I was walking back in, I heard them talking.

“What?” Leon asked.

“What are you doing?” Chiara is laughing.

“Olivia doesn't like sesame seeds.”

There’s a pause after that. Leon always takes the seeds off the bread for me. I take a peek, trying to get a better look at their interaction.

“You have always been my favorite.” Chiara hugs him with watering eyes. Then she playfully pretends to punch his arm.“If you hurt her I’ll kill you.”

“You guys are so cute!” I finally walked in hugging them both.

“You guys are so cute.” Chiara points at us and we agree. We really are.

***

“Dating a footballer? Couldn’t be me.” Isabella teased me. We were in a busy restaurant having drinks after lunch. Isa is a sports journalist who is currently covering the Bundesliga, so for her my current situation was funny to say the least.

“You know you're bound to eat your words, right?”

“If that happens, just shoot me.” She jokes. “You know twitter is going crazy about the two of you right? You guys are the new Jennifer Lopez and Ben Aflleck. People are obsessed.”

“I’ve been out of social media, but I’ve noticed the rise of paparazzi following me around; so I’ve figured.”

Meeting up with Isa was like a breath of fresh air. I’ve been isolated from my friends for too long. Later, in therapy, I would make the connection on how that was affecting my matches.

***

“I can’t keep doing this unless I know you’re as invested as I am. I know you’re dealing with a lot right now, but I can’t go through all of that again.”

We were getting ready to bed talking about his work, changes of manager, upcoming games; and Leon just burst it out. He looks anxiously at me and I can tell he was thinking about it for a while.

“I’m not going anywhere. I’m invested, I promise.”

He nods.

🌧️Share something angsty from your WIP.

@artbyeloquent

thanks! i don't do lots of angst, and that's rarely the part i have done ahead of time lol but i think this part of "Feral" (hellhound fic) suits best.

“I told you,” you swallow, determined to get the words out in a stronger tone than usual. Maybe she’ll actually listen this time if you manage to convince her you mean it, “that if you wanted to stay over, you had to let me know ahead of time.”

Paula throws her hands up in the air, like you’re the one who’s setting the bar too high, “Come on, I didn’t even know for sure I’d be in town.”

You want to say that you don’t know how that’s your problem or how suddenly she decided to be in town that she couldn’t shoot you a simple text. But you know the answer—she didn’t think she needed to. It probably never even crossed her mind. Just like always. Automatically, you search for something to tell her, something that will get her to leave without a fight because you just can’t. You don’t want to argue with her. Hasn’t this day been long enough?

Then you remember your conversation with Zrea this morning and open your mouth to say that actually, you already promised to let a different friend stay when you stop. While its true that you’d told Zrea to come by whenever, that’s not really why you don’t want your ex here. You don’t want her here because she makes you feel like shit, like you only exist for her to boss around. She makes you uncomfortable in your own home--and you hate it.

D20 - Dungeons and Drag Queens Ep 2 Notes

Oh man, I am so far behind. I will try to finish the other two episodes within the next week if possible. Let’s see.

---

I love Jujubee placing herself in the middle of the group. No one will come at her first

"But you're the oldest one here trying to die bitch" LOLOL

"But I'm not dead. [...] And since I'm not alive...Bitch!" That is Jujubee's second retraction after accidentally eating the magical seed. Love the table just falling over themselves at these antics. "What did you roll a one? A one on steath?"

"If you roll a one, we are going to end up with a guppy.: Bob with the incredible quips once again.

"Did she lose her sense of fashion" Brennan just losing it while Monet just looks so done and disappointed.

Alaska's expression whenever she goes into character is top notch, that growling face

"Dinner is served!" "Is she going to fucking eat us...we're rotting?!" LOL

Monet jumping into the explanation before Brennan even asks her to. So excited, so cute.

Gertrude's attack was so cool.

Here we go with Brennan making all his players cry again. This man's storytelling abilities are awe-inspiring

"What the going gets tusk, the tusk gets going." All of these character taglines are so on point.

Awww this uncle is so sweet.

Lol Troyan forgeting the spell letting them take characters across the river is so perfect.

Them rushing to write down the name of the Goddess is also very nice. They are great first time DnD players!

Damn Nyruth is handsome too. The character artists for this season really went all out (But then again, they always do at D20).

Oh my god Jujubee is so chaotic, the others spend half the show just trailing behind trying to clean up their mess. Brennan must love her for it.

"I wanna get wet." Brennan stop! God why does it always make me blush when he just says stuff like that!

Jujubee is so proud of the Monet X Change pun lololol

"I can disguise myself as a flashlight" Lol, I don't know how much jujubee genuinely wants to play, and how much she just wants to cause chaos, but I love her for it.

I kind of wish we had gotten a chane to see Brennan's expression as the Queens are discussing this double crossing plan.

Unbelieve Brennan, oh my god. Just playing on the Paula Abdul bit.

I like the flash cuts to Alaska's reactions to the antics of Bob and Jujubee, where she is just mentally rolling her eyes, like what is happening right now?/are you serious?

Oh my god, "Dispel his Dispel Magic". So convoluted

Holy shit, three ones! Oh no that jack that is going to eat them.

Did Monet just try to trick Brennan the DM abut what dice to use? Lol

"D'Hamia - Snatched and Thirsty" the captions are superb

"I pour your tea in a bucket" Glad to see them all remembering Princess's size lol.

All of them playing out what's the best plan is actually so nice. Like they are really leaning into the RP this season, because for newbies, a ton of combat would be heard. And it's nice seeing the Queens trying to logic out what would be the best moves to do. Even if their dice don't always let them.

"4" "Hundred" Twyla is so chaotic, my god, she always just does the most insane choice. ...I really want her to play with Emily (RIP their poor DM)

Ooooh Troyan's mom is only saving herself...

"She sounds like an alcoholic" Brennan has been wheeze laughing so much this episode, it's delightful

Oof, brutal revelation

"It wasn't like 'Hey girl!'" Brennan's expression is so funny

D'Hamia interactions with Princess are great

"We are going to pimp out our orc friend." Bob is just killing it with the one liners.

---

Oh god this preview is so dramatic lol

---

That was a good episode! I can see the campaign will likely be very light in combat, which makes sense, the Queens are making the RP and character choices that are so entertaining and fun to watch. Excellent season so far.

S2 ep 5

1. Marcos declaring this boarding school is like a horror movie - he is so right. So much of this ep is his desperately trying to get himself (and more importantly Paula) out of it and the horror of it is he can’t (and once again, Caro gets all the signs she is ignoring, that she will never be his all-consuming love. He doesn’t even think of her in light of hopes of getting Paula out. As is right - being with Marcos would be in any meaningful way like being with a single father - you will come second and you should. But I don’t think Caro truly gets it.)

2. Julia and Ivan bonding over the math teacher being a psycho but what strikes me again is Ivan mentioning the man choked him and nobody even goes “we should report it.” What the hell is this school? Ah, hell school!

3. The irony of Elsa telling Ivan that if he doesn’t learn to control his aggression, he will end up like daddy. She is gonna date daddy!!!! And also, it’s rather hypocritical seeing she hired a teacher who chokes students and is a murderer; it all comes across as “only beat others if you have power” - yeah, that’s basically the school. (Side note - finding out he has no shared blood with Daddy was one of the best things that happened to Ivan - well that and getting an explanation as to why his father was such a monster; it stops him from wondering if there is something wrong with him that his own father could not love him (though I want to point out that this show is big on biology is not destiny. Marcos’ father and grandfather turn out hardcore Nazis and yet he’s good and fights them with everything.)) But anyway, the scene of Ivan “bonding” with Paula, there for punching a kid, is AMAZING. My fave part is when she sees him give Elsa’s back the finger and asks what it is, and he says it’s a gesture of liking and she should do it to her brother and teachers OMG you juvenile delinquent!

4. Fermin x Maria are everything. His telling her if she came to spend the night she won’t need the nightie and when she is asking which place he prefers (she is sleeping in his room for plot reasons, and they both know sex is not on the menu), his saying he likes being on the bottom. Heeee. I do love how Fermin somehow manages to both convey his liking her and wanting her and total acceptance of it all going at her pace...

5. Hi there resident serial killer. That was downright terrifying!

6. Evelyn and Paula decide to fake a letter from Ivan’s father (because they asked Maria why Ivan is bad and she said he wasn’t bad, he just does bad things because he’s sad because his father is in jail) and like...I melt as much as Ivan does. AWWWW. You know, for all his many issues and sharp edges, he responds to genuine kindness so strongly.

7. That flashback of Marcos learning about their parents’ deaths - what struck me is Marcos falling apart but Paula skipping oblivious, happily, and he is containing his grief - for her sake. That is their whole story summed up - he falls apart but protects her from all those horrors that cause him to do so. LIKE!!!!

8. Ivan, protector of Paula. Heeeee!!!! Well, you can’t be bros with Marcos if you don’t take care of his baby sis. (How far we’ve come from early s1 and Ivan’s snide comments to Marcos that he wants to tell Marcos’ sister their parents are dead.)

9. I caaaan’t!!!! He did tell her this is a gesture of friendship. OMG. This show was WILD!!!!

10. Marcos learning they have no money, their childhood home is gone...

And that means he is trapped with his sister in the boarding school of hell, they can’t leave, he can’t protect her (and his lawyer is clearly somehow involved which makes it scarier) and just the helplessness and the terror. This show liked breaking Marcos down almost as much as it did Ivan.

But once again - he is keening silently so Paula can sleep sweetly and peacefully. Because this is how it always is. I can’t with him and with them!

PS I find it pretty telling how Ivan is not shattered by the break up with Caro. I think because for him that relationship really also was largely not genuine love but wanting to have someone and not be alone.

Picked from „Arrow“, „Black Lightning“, „Supergirl“, „Legends of Tomorrow“, „The Flash“, „Barwoman“ Season 1+2 and „Superman & Lois“ Season 1+2. I did consider kicking „Superman & Lois“ of this list, but since it pretended to be part of the Arrowverse for its first two seasons I left it on here.

32, Written by: Andrew Kreisberg, Directed by: Kevin Tancharoen

"Flash-y the red-nosed speedster. Had a very shiny suit. And if you ever saw him, you might even want to puke. [gags] Merry Christmas, kiddie-winks. I'm back!

But don’t forget, it can also be a time for disemboweling our enemies. No. My stocking won't be completely stuffed until it's filled to the brim with bloody Flash parts. So what do you say, speed freak? You wanna roast chestnuts?"

6, Written by: Katie Aldrin, Directed by: Sudz Sutherland

" When I first showed up in Metropolis as Superman, there was a lot of talk about what the world should do with someone who had powers like mine. And it took me a minute to realize that other people were more afraid of what I could do than I was. So what I had to do, more than anything, was earn their trust, prove to them that, no matter what, I would never use my powers to hurt them. 20 years later, every time I use my powers, that trust is tested, every time. Just today, in fact. The thing about trust, Jordan... Once you break it, it's take a lot longer to heal than a wrist."

109. The Magnificent Eight (Legends of Tomorrow 1x11)

11, Written by: Marc Guggenheim, Greg Berlanti, Directed by: Thor Freudenthal

98-99, Written by: Dana Horgan, Katie Rose Rogers; Rob Wright, J. Holtman, Directed by: David Harewood, Alexis Ostrander

"In a way, you kind of helped me. Growing up, I was constantly burdened by my father's crimes. You know, son of a madman. Pretty sure everyone judged me for it. Everything I've done in my life has been in defiance of that. Joining the Superfriends, running out to the future with Legionnaires to fight your cousin and stop him.

157, Written by: Thomas Pound, Directed by: David McWhirter

„Okay, I get it. I'm the new guy. You're busy, and I heard you just lost your partner, which has gotta be tough. Plus, one of our CSIs is in a coma, and on top of all that, you got shot down by Counselor Horton.“

„Who told you that?“

[joybucket @ bzoink]

What song do you want played at your wedding? 💒 I have no idea, it’s not something I’ve thought about. I can’t even envision myself getting married.

List up to three things you own that have fringe on them. I don’t think I own anything with fringe.

What is one thing you've been waiting patiently for for quite some time? Well, I’m very impatient so I’ve been impatiently waiting to get better. It has been several years, so I think I’m justified in this case.

When was the last time you sat in front of a bonfire? 🔥🪵 It’s been a long time.

If you could meet any American Idol contestant (from any season), which one would you choose to meet? 🎤 Hmm, I’d say Kelly Clarkson, David Archuleta, or Adam Lambert.

If you could meet any American Idol judge (from any season), which one would you choose to meet? I guess Paula Abdul.

If you had to choose between competing on American Idol or on Fear Factor, which one would you choose, and why? Most definitely neither. I have zero singing talent and I’m not going to eat bugs or any other disgusting thing or do something scary.

Which name do you like best for a girl: Harmony or Harvest? Harvest. I love the name Autumn and I think Harvest is pretty, too.

What is your favorite type of oil? Olive oil and sandwich oil. Have you ever been anointed with oil? No.

Which do you like better: the smell of old books, or the smell of new books? I loveee the smell of old books.

Which smell do you like better: the smell of old books, or the smell of gasoline? 📚 ⛽️ I like the smell of gasoline as well, but the smell of old books still wins.

When was the last time you had a deep conversation with someone? My mom and I have those type of conversations quite often.

When was the last time you played with sparklers? 🥢💥 I have no idea.

What are three of the most painful things you have ever stepped on? Well, nothing since I’m a paraplegic and in a wheelchair.

What is something you have recently realized? I don’t know. There’s a lot I’ve realized for a long time and things continue to happen that only further support the realizations. What I do about them is the problem.

If you could study abroad for a year in a foreign country, which country do you think you would choose, and why? I wouldn’t do that. I’m sure it would be an amazing experience, but I wouldn’t feel comfortable or safe doing that alone.

What are three little things in life that you enjoy? Books, coffee, Reese’s.

If applicable, what song are you listening to right now? I’m not.

When was the last time you wore your hair up in a bun? Yesterday. My hair is now just barely long enough to put it up in a little bun, although strands of hair fall out in the back cause my hair is still so short.

If you could choose three US states to visit, which three states would you pick? Hawaii, New York, and Alaska.

Do you think you express yourself better in writing or out loud? >> I definitely express myself better in writing because I have the space and time to get my words together. this does not mean I always succeed in expressing myself well even in writing, because words are a fuck <<< I’d definitely say the same thing. It’s also the fact I’m not directly talking to someone, so even if someone reads my writing, I’m not talking face to face. If I sound like a rambling idiot, I don’t know they think that. Cause I definitely can ramble on and not always make sense in my writing, but it’s okay. I feel much more comfortable trying to express myself and letting my thoughts out in the written form than verbally.

What's the most amazing miracle you've ever witnessed? ✨ Life-threatening situations I had last year in the hospital that I miraculously, by the grace of God, survived. I’ve also witnessed His healing with things that once looked so hopeless without a good chance at all in healing.

Do you enjoy being home alone? I like having some time alone, but I like spending time with my brother and my mom. Or even if they’re in other rooms but they’re still here. For some reason I’ve been really feeling lonely lately. I think I have some dependency issues.

What is the most magical thing you've ever experienced? ✨ >> how is this different from the question above the last question in any meaningful way <<< Yeah, this is like the miracle question. Well, except that I don’t believe in magic so I don’t attribute the miracles I’ve experience to that, I completely give credit to God.

What was the last hot beverage you drank? ☕️ Coffee.

What is your favorite season? I love fall and winter.

Do you think your hair looks better curly or straight? I like it wavy or straight.

Have you ever donated blood? 🩸 No.

Would you rather eat at the Hard Rock Cafe or the Rainforest Cafe? I’ve only been to the Rainforest Cafe, which was cool but it’s definitely for the experience as I wasn’t that impressed with the food. I think that’s the whole thing, though with places with like that. I’d like to go to the Hard Rock Cafe, but it’s probably a similar experience.

Are you a good swimmer? 🩱 >> I can't swim. <<<

Would you rather attend a yoga class or a Zumba class? Neither.

Have you written anything down today? ✍️ Not handwritten, but I’ve done a lot of typing both on here and on my phone.

What color is your camera case (if you have one)? My camera is my phone, which has a clear case on it with Stranger Things stickers I put on there. The stickers are peeling off, though, and it looks all ugly right now so I need to get a new case.

What do you consider ideal weather for spring? I like rainy weather, but here our spring tends to be warm and a little summer-y, which I don’t like. It reminds me that summer is right around the corner and our summers are miserably hot.

Have you experienced anything supernatural today? ✨ No.

What are three things you like that start with the same letter as your middle name? I’m not sharing my middle name initial. Nice try.

What year did you join Facebook? Back in 2008. Possibly late 2007.

Which do you use more: Facebook or Instagram? Facebook. I barely use that anymore, though. I don’t spend much time on it.

Would you say you've had a good week so far? No.

What are three of your favorite ways to enjoy spring? 🌸 I don’t do anything.

Do you own a pair of pink pants? I have a pair of pink Barbie sweatpants.

The Reasons I’m Looking Forward To The Rescue Rangers Movie

one of the reasons I’m looking forward to it, besides having different types of Toons in it, both in 2D and CGI and maybe even Video Game Characters.

and it being a Live Action With Cartoons in it.

is that Paula Abdul, MC Skat Kat and Roger Rabbit make a cameo in it.

but also the fact they are possibly having Peter Pan look like a Adult and a Villain, so it does seem they are matching the Disney’s Adult Peter Pan with his Counterpart.

because in his original backstory (not the Disney version in the first Movies)

he was always a villain, and well it’s possible even in the Disney’s Peter Pan Movies, he might of still been technically a villain.

like him being a Anti-Hero in those Movies, but once he finally became physically older (maybe he was banished from Neverland...?), he became well seemingly to match how he was originally, a Villain.

well there could be some differences between the Peter Pan in The Rescue Rangers Movie and the one from the Original Origin Non-Disney Version Of Peter Pan.

also is it weird that I kind of wish I could hug Mr. Snake from that Bad Guys,

I hope to watch the full movie and not just see clips of it.

you could say his adorableness is what is TEMPTING me to want to snuggle the life out of him, well not really the life out of him but you know what I mean right...?

guess some might not get that tempting reference, and I know some real life snakes can be dangerous while some can be kept as pets.

well, Mr. Snake isn’t the Pet or Critter type, he is a Snake and a Person.

plus it could be considered a insult to call a Anthropomorphic Animal Person,

a Critter when it could be normally be used for those like Mickey Mouse’s Dog, Pluto.

I also find the rest of Mr. Snake’s Team/Friends, as awesome and I can’t wait to watch the movie.

Mr. Shark seems like a big cuddly teddy, and well I would trust him to get close to me more than a Male Dolphin.....even if Dolphins do have some good and beauty in them, it’s the full grown male ones you need to watch out for.

because half of them will be good, some will be really bad just like some humans......

I still like Dolphins, but I just don’t care much for the male ones who are dangerous and can cause bad trauma.

I know that I have Semi-Misanthrope, and I don’t much care for the whole Toxic thing with Misogyny and Misandry.

in equal sense, as people and beings that live on this planet,

they would still be part of the Semi-Misanthrope list.

some who have a fear of men or women, wouldn’t hate them, but more like had some bad experiences that caused the fear in the first place.

also it isn’t just men or boys, that can do some pretty messed up and really terrible stuff, and some women and girls might know this.

plus it is possible for some people in this world,

to be Semi-Misogyny or Semi-Misandry, but only to some who make them hate Toxic-Men or Toxic-Women.

I know that not every man or woman, is like that...

just like how I know that not every Religious person is Toxic-Religious,

and some don’t cross the a very dangerous line.

I guess in that Moxie Movie, the main character almost did cross a line by almost going to the Toxic side of Misogyny, but she was brought back and ended up helping someone who was in a very dark place.

also those who were originally Misogyny and Misandry, might been that way for different reasons. might later not be Misogyny or Misandry later on in their life.

though I can’t say the same for everyone else, and I hope no one misinterprets what I’m trying to say about it.

anyway back to the Rescue Rangers Movie, I can’t wait to see it and I’m glad that Paula, Skat and Roger will make a cameo in it.

and I don’t mind Chip and Dale’s voices being slightly different, but it does make it seem they can change their voices at will to make it sound like they sound a bit like how they do in rescue rangers show and even their past cartoon appearances.

I also like that they are seemingly making Peter Pan a Villain, so he does seem to be matching his counterpart from the original story that wasn’t made by Disney.

maybe if Captain Hook appears in that movie, he will be helping Chip and Dale.

the trailer for the Rescue Rangers Movie, looks interesting to me, and I think a few others feel the same, but not everyone might like it.

maybe after MC Skat Kat’s cameo in that movie, he might get his own movie someday, well that is what I hope for.

another thing I can look forward to is the wait for the new Bendy video game,

of course there are rumors that it is cancelled.

but those kind of rumors might only be said to be true,

because of not checking the recent updates to Joey Drew Studios dot com.

there was a update on April 14, 2022 on that site.

video games take time and a lot of energy, just like any work.

and there might be reasons why Bendy And The Dark Revival, is going to take a little longer but might not be as long as we think.

also there can be a lot of people who have different feelings that have to do with the Rescue Rangers Movie, and I guess some might not be happy about Peter Pan seemingly be made into a Bad Guy.

but that was how he was in his original story before Disney made a “good guy” version of him, who might of been more of a Anti-Hero which might of shown in the first movie, like when Wendy had been almost drowned by those Mermaids and some other stuff that happen in that movie.

the different Peter Pan Movies where Peter is a good guy, is still good.

even the movie where he grows up and becomes a father.

waiting for to watch both the Rescue Rangers Movie and The Bad Guys Movie, will be worth the wait, as well as other movies.

WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU CRIED? Last night! Ateez was performing at Coachella, and I was watching it live on YouTube. I just love them so much😭😭😭 their music has gotten me through so much the last few years, like if you could have soulmates with music and a group, it would be them.

WHAT SPORTS DO YOU PLAY/HAVE YOU PLAYED? I never got into sports because of asthma but I love swimming and I always wanted to learn archery, but in school, girls weren’t allowed to do it 🙄

WHAT IS THE FIRST THING YOU NOTICE ABOUT PEOPLE? The vibes lmao idk sometimes it’s their hair or their makeup or like something they’re wearing.

WHAT'S YOUR EYE COLOUR? Brown

SCARY MOVIES OR HAPPY ENDINGS? Depends honestly. I love happy endings, but I like spooky shit. I learned the hard way that books that have the word haunting in the title does not always mean ghosts. Was not thrilled lmao

ANY TALENTS? Idk tbh lmao I guess I draw and write. I can cook 🤣 I used to sing, and I do actually miss it.

WHERE WERE YOU BORN? New York

WHAT ARE YOUR HOBBIES? Reading (on a slump again so this feels like a lie), writing and drawing. Playing video games, cooking and baking.

DO YOU HAVE ANY PETS? Nope. I choose not to have any due to health and also because the trauma™️ my dad ate my rabbit as a kid and I decided at 5 years old I’d never get another one lmao 🤣 I swear I went to therapy and told her about this but idk now I’m just so used to it, I don’t feel the need to have one.

FAVOURITE SUBJECT IN SCHOOL? English and art. English teachers were always the ones who made school bearable. And art class was just the best. I do enjoy history also.

DREAM JOB? In this economy????? Lmao no but I honestly have 0 idea what I would do. I’ve never enjoyed any job I had- I worked because of necessity and to provide for my family, never because it was a “dream” to work there. I’ve been out of the work force since having my kid and so now, I don’t even know what I would do. 🫠

I don’t know who to tag because it’s been forever- so if you see this, go for it and tag me so I can see it 🫣

Paula and the Pool

I was with my kid sister in the swimming pool out the back of the hotel. It was thirty degrees. I splashed my sister with the water and she kept giggling so I kept doing it. Her name was Paula. She was about half the size of me. And hadn’t quite learned to swim yet. This was late in the afternoon and the other holidaymakers around the hotel had gone off into town to do other things. I needed a pee, so I got out of the pool to go back to the hotel room. Then I looked down at Paula. She was standing looking up at me with her face just above the water, at the shallow end. I said to her, “Paula, just stay at this end, okay? Don’t go over to the deep end. Right?” She laughed at me. And I blushed. I think because I’d never tried to be authoritative with her before. I smiled, and left.

And I went up through the airy hotel to my room. Our room – mine and Paula’s. Mum and Dad had their room next to mine but they weren’t in it; they were out exploring in the city as well. I peed. And then something distracted me in the room. I still can’t remember what it was. Maybe it was that I wanted some of the food out of the fridge and I ate a snack or something. But I often wonder that if I’d not delayed and stayed in the room for five minutes then things might’ve been different.

After that I went back down stairs and I came out into the atrium of the pool. Came out into the sun again. And, do you know when you’re in a sunny place for ages and the sheer light makes your vision blue when you go indoors: and then when you go back outdoors your eyes re-attach to the blazing light? It was like that.

And I looked around and Paula wasn’t in the pool.

That’s what I thought at first. I looked around the deckchairs and she wasn’t on any of them. So I edged around the perimeter of the shallow end – I thought maybe she had gone back to the canteen, which was on the other side of the pool.

When I got to the far side I noticed this dark shape under the water … at the deep end.

I pulled her body out of the water and got her on to the side of the pool. And I shoved my fingers down her throat to try and make her puke up. But her face was stony and wouldn’t move; her eyes weren’t moving. I was crying, and then I started to yell “HELP! HELP!” And eventually this woman who worked in the canteen swung around the corner and she yelled “Eeeeeiiiiii!” when she saw what was happening and then she vanished. I thought she had run away for good: but she reappeared a minute later with her other colleagues. … None of them could speak English too well. They spoke in their own tongues and I kept yammering at them in English – all of us stooped over Paula’s body – and they couldn’t respond to what I was saying.

Then one of them took his phone out and called the ambulance. I knew it was the ambulance because he said “Ambulance,” to me. At that point I thought that Paula might wake up and that she would be okay.

The hotel manager was alerted and he came over to the scene with a grave expression. And he and the chap that had called the ambulance helped lift Paula out of the atrium and they carried her out to the front of the building to wait for the vehicle to take her away.

I remember being embarrassed because I was crying too much in front of other people – a thing I didn’t normally do.

My mother and father still knew nothing about what had happened. They wouldn’t know for another ten minutes. I was afraid to call my mother so I called father instead. … When I called him there was a merry festive sound in the background, jangly music. “Paula’s in trouble, Dad,” I said, over and over. He found it hard to hear me.

I think my mother always preferred Paula to me. That was part of the reason why I called Dad that day instead of her because I figured she would think it was my fault.

When I was in my late teens I moved out of home. Mother hated me and it was too difficult to live with her.

I’ve been to grief counsellors and I’ve read books about how to try and cope with shame. And for a while I was on medication. The drugs were no use. I do drink way too much alcohol and that helps sometimes. When I go to a new job and meet new people I can never tell them about what happened with Paula.

Every day since it happened I’ve thought that I should have taken Paula up stairs with me when I went to pee. She was far too young to be in the pool by herself. But then I remembered when she laughed at me when I tried to be stern with her … so maybe that made me think she was confident with being there alone. Or, I will wish that somebody else had been in the pool area and would have been there to help. One of the worst bits is not knowing exactly what happened. I imagine that she might have tried to swim to the deep end: to play a trick on me and disobey me because I’d told her not to do that. So perhaps she was wanting to show me that she could swim to the deep end – and she tried that – but got into trouble along the way; she swallowed the water and her limbs were too thin and she went under and swallowed more water … Oh. I’ve been over these thoughts so many times. It was my fault and I deserve to feel ashamed. Boo hoo if I drink to much. Or that my mother no longer speaks to me. I shouldn’t have left her there alone in the pool.

I still remember her upper bar of white teeth when I splashed water on her in the pool. And how I didn’t appreciate her so much when she was still alive.
