The fact that Dairon is like the only person in relative authority that Beau cares at all if they're annoyed with her or not is the fucking funniest thing since I'm pretty sure Beau is the only student Dairon has ever had who regularly puts holes in their emotional defenses and noticeably gets under their skin. Dairon is only pissy because it's Beau and they are safe to be real with her and Beau turns into a stammering teenager worried about getting lectured BECAUSE Dairon gets pissy and everyone else is watching one of the sharpest and most competent people they know crash and burn at the very mention of the ultra-badass superspy who just stomped inside their upper balcony for a very grumpy cup of tea.

Ohh time to feel bad about my lack of a brain, how lovely
I have so much stuff. And I never use like a lot of it. But like. I had to talk myself into throwing away a broken ornament before.
It's in the bin now it's fine but like
I wish I could not be like this sometimes
Or at least, have enough headspace or whatever the word is to actually use all the crap I've got over the years
Then I wouldn't have so much crap.
I just know that I'm such a fucking disaster in like. Everybody's eyes.
It drives my mum crazy that I keep tins on the kitchen side, but I know that if I keep them in the cupboard then they won't be used at all. I know that because it's happened. More times than is reasonable. That all of the tins have gone past their dates. Think about how long the shelf life of soup is, and then apply that to the rest of my life.
It's fucking frustrating but I don't have any other strategy to fix that, I wish I fucking did
Maybe when I move in November I'll take all the cupboard doors off the new kitchen so I can actually fucking use it
Anyway. I have one window ledge clear ready for Monday morning, and my desk mostly - I still have two more window ledges and surrounding stuff to do
I'm gonna. Have lunch. And maybe I'll feel a bit better then.
And then I'll tackle the rest of under-the-desk. And I have to take the bin out and have a shower and finish this sewing and pack a laundry bag and and I have work tomorrow and

the thing is there's like, a point of oversaturation for everything, and it's why so many things get dropped after a few minutes. and we act like millennials or gen z kids "have short attention spans" but... that's not quite it. it's more like - we did like it. you just ruined it.
capitalism sees product A having moderate success, and then everything has to come out with their "own version" of product A (which is often exactly the same). and they dump extreme amounts of money and environmental waste into each horrible simulacrum they trot out each season.
now it's not just tiktokkers making videos; it's that instagram and even fucking tumblr both think you want live feeds and video-first programming. and it helps them, because videos are easier to sneak native ads into. the books coming out all have to have 78 buzzwords in them for SEO, or otherwise they don't get published. they are making a live-action remake of moana. i haven't googled it, but there's probably another marvel or starwars something coming out, no matter when you're reading this post.
and we are like "hi, this clone of project A completely misses the point of the original. it is soulless and colorless and miserable." and the company nods and says "yes totally. here is a different clone, but special." and we look at clone 2 and we say "nope, this one is still flat and bad, y'all" and they're like "no, totally, we hear you," and then they make another clone but this time it's, like, a joyless prequel. and by the time they've successfully rolled out "clone 89", the market is incredibly oversaturated, and the consumer is blamed because the company isn't turning a profit.
and like - take even something digital like the tumblr "live streaming" function i just mentioned. that has to take up server space and some amount of carbon footprint; just so this brokenass blue hellsite can roll out a feature that literally none of its userbase actually wants. the thing that's the kicker here: even something that doesn't have a physical production plant still impacts the environment.
and it all just feels like it's rolling out of control because like, you watch companies pour hundreds of thousands of dollars into a remake of a remake of something nobody wants anymore and you're like, not able to afford eggs anymore. and you tell the company that really what you want is a good story about survival and they say "okay so you mean a YA white protagonist has some kind of 'spicy' love triangle" and you're like - hey man i think you're misunderstanding the point of storytelling but they've already printed 76 versions of "city of blood and magic" and "queen of diamond rule" and spent literally millions of dollars on the movie "Candy Crush Killer: Coming to Eat You".
it's like being stuck in a room with a clown that keeps telling the same joke over and over but it's worse every time. and that would be fine but he keeps fucking charging you 6.99. and you keep being like "no, i know it made me laugh the first time, but that's because it was different and new" and the clown is just aggressively sitting there saying "well! plenty of people like my jokes! the reason you're bored of this is because maybe there's something wrong with you!"

Alternative universe where Wymack gives up his “above my salary” rule and just straight up disses Andrew when he is pining over Neil
⫸
Andrew: breaks into Wymack’s apartment to rant about how much Neil is a problem and a threat
Wymack: You want to fuck him so much it makes you look stupid
⫸
Andrew and Neil getting in their usual first book word scuffles
Wymack to Andrew after Neil leaves them alone: So what have you decided on? Spring or Summer wedding?
⫸
Andrew: allows some fox to score on him because he was too busy staring at Neil’s ass
Wymack not saying anything out loud but catching Andrew’s eyes with so much bored intensivity the words just materialize on their own in Andrew’s mind: Wow that was pathetic.
⫸
Andrew feeding Neil some “i’ll still solve you” or other talk like that
Wymack not even raising his eyes from some documents he was filling out: I’ve seen fucking garden snails flirt better than you.
⫸
Andrew buys Neil a matching phone
Wymack: And here I thought Nicky was the only useless gay in the family, good to see I can still be wrong.
⫸
Wymack calling Andrew after Neil hitchhiked his way back to his apartment the first time Monsters took him to Eden: CAN’T YOU TAKE HIM OUT ON A DATE LIKE NORMAL PERSON???? YOU HAVE TO FUCKING DRUG HIM???
⫸
Andrew: buys Neil like a half of wardrobe in a exact style Andrew prefer
Wymack: just aggressively sideeyeing him in silence
Andrew: SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP
⫸
Wymack: shamelessly using Neil to stop Andrew from acting out against other Foxes
Andrew: Fucking stop it.
Wymack: No <3
⫸
Wymack: sends Neil to Andrew to ask him to stop throwing balls at Foxes’ ankles
Wymack silently through very intense eye contact: JUST FUCKING BANG IT OUT AND STOP LETTING IT AFFECT MY GAMEPLAY
⫸
Wymack: Do threats of violence usually work for you? Or do you know about some Neil's fetish none of us are privy to?
⫸
Wymack to Andrew: Its good to know there is something that both you and Aaron share. I just didn't expect it to be inability to act like normal human beings around your crushes.

yes, yes i know edgeworth’s big wet eyes and loser boy personality have captivated us all, but listen. listen.
phoenix wright
phoenix “genuinely unable to reconcile the girl on the stand with the girl he dated for eight months, a cognitive dissonance so profound it’s ultimately explained by them being literally two different people, but which he first sits with for five years and does not talk about at any point to anyone” wright
phoenix “don’t mention that name to me. i don’t want to talk about it. i don’t want to think about it. i am just going to keep myself in this state of perpetual crisis mode focus on other people’s problems until eventually i die and get to hang out with mia on the astral plane and never have to deal with any of these emotions ever again” wright
phoenix “overnight loses his career and reputation and sense of identity while gaining an adopted, probably pretty traumatized eight-year-old daughter, and rather than leaning on his friends for help, or getting therapy, or taking any time to process any of this, he *checks notes* spends seven years dedicating all his free time and energy to investigating the weird fucking circumstances around it and maintains a friendship with the guy he suspects was behind it all” wright
phoenix "runs across a burning bridge and falls through it, half a day after the game establishes that he is terrified of heights, because his friend is on the other side of that bridge" wright
phoenix “i sure felt surprised. maybe i had my poker face on” wright
phoenix “looking back on it that was actually a pretty dark period in my life” wright
phoenix “don’t ask me how i got started. i don’t remember” wright
phoenix “only you stood still, your eyes calmly watching” wright
phoenix “sometimes, life just sucks” wright
just
phoenix wright
crunchiest man in the world
and all i wanna do is chew and chew and chew on him

The “What if Dooku Trains Obi-Wan instead of Qui-Gon AU” is genuinely precious to me and I think they would thrive.
Still, can you imagine how much initial adjustment it take be for Obi-Wan “Qui-Gon Isn’t Following The Rules and It’s Giving Me a Stomach Ache” Kenobi to be trained by the guy Qui-Gon learned that from?
A typical Master Dooku mission canon example from Dooku: Jedi Lost
Dooku: the mission is called Space Nascar and we have to do a shot everytime someone pisses me off
Dooku: see the Council assigns me these sorts of elbow-rubbing rich people event missions because of my “good” “stable” personality
Dooku: for example I’ve almost gotten in two separate fights and we’ve been here five minutes
Dooku: Now let’s go steal a speeder, I just Force-threw a cop
Qui-Gon is rattled by this. QUI-GON JINN.
On the other hand, Obi-Wan’s existing partnerships prove he’s able to thrive under chaos. Dooku, for all his faults, seems to have the singular ability as a Master to produce incredibly self-confident students. He’s repeatedly established as someone who genuinely loves teaching and is a natural at it, who is at their best when part of a Master Padawan partnership - which seemed to be a struggle for Qui-Gon. Ultimately he and Obi-Wan built a loving, successful partnership, but in every timeline it seems to have been initially rocky and took years to flourish. The difference in Obi-Wan having a Master who is tremendously engaged and invested in him from the get-go, but also deeply chaotic?
Makashi Chaos Monster Obi-Wan. Oh no, he’s a duelist just like his dad and bitchier than ever! The part of him that is inclined to say things like “Sith Lords are our Specialty” is given room to grow and thrive. His monologues increase tenfold and he has a lightsaber form where they’re built right in. The quips! The amount of leaving a conversation that’s going badly by jumping out a window (pulling a Dooku)!
It’s so beautiful. 🥲
