#i have my quit date planned

[ohdeargodwhy]

Still trying to work out why they made Trent a gay man if not for TedTrent and/or to be a parallel to divorcee Ted also coming out later in life make it make sense

(Like yes kinda support to the colin storyline but also there were so many other characters who could have provided that - sharon for one, obviously, keeley another, any new character. Also why specifically gay and (we assume) divorced and not happily married bi or gay with kids???)

#like obv there doesnt need to be a reason for a character to be queer because there's no reason for most characters to be straight #but also they clearly changed their mind about trent bc of the whole daughter thing and that wasnt planned or they'd have made more of it #and the moment they changed their mind was when they gave trent a ted lookalike date and had him enter to 'if music be the food of love' #my fatal flaw is i truly believe tedtrent was a writers room option at one point and actually got ditched quite late in the s3 rewrites #im soooo delusional about this #well i truly believed it til the terrible brendan hunt ama #thats when i realised the writers had no awareness of the show they actually made lmao #ted lasso #ted lasso meta #tedtrent #trent crimm #tedependent #not that we really got much backstory detail but why those specifics?? #anyway i need to sleep lmao

I loved your ship drawings of Metal x Amy and Speedy x Amy! I would like to see more of them! X3

WAAA THANK YOU i have nothing new for either but. here's a speedamy I apparently never posted? They're stranded together :]

#speedy the bird #amy rose #speedamy #sonic the hedgehog #toma draws #most of my speedamys were set on the universe a chat format rp group with friends where my amy and my friend's speedy befriended each other #and fell in love and started dating at some point #but this was a separate rp with us working out how theyd first befriend each other in a canon setting. we got to an enemies to friends thin #where they get stranded in a forest during a sonic and co vs battle bird armada fight and have to work together to find their way out #we never quite finished it but it was lots of fun :] #i didn't post this Back Then bc i planned to shade it and whatnot but i was under the impression i'd eventually posted it already. huh #the fact that my speedamy era was 5 years ago is sending me. what the hell #i don't remember how old this ask was sorry anon. hope ur still out there #there's actually a handful of speedamy sketches i didn't see in my tag? maybe ill dig those up and post them sometime #at least the speedamy everytime we touch amv is there

Welp, outside of being sick I think that’s the first time I’ve unintentionally slept the day away and woken up feeling better. Stuff going on at work put me in the weirdest agitated mind space with a mean side of brain fog for the past few days (why I kinda dropped off the radar here since Saturday), but I’m feeling a hell of a lot better … if not a little disappointed that half my weekend is gone now. :p

I think I’m going to plan to take a long-overdue social media break March 13-22ish because that’ll be a VERY long workweek with similar stressors to this last one, & I know my introverted butt is going to be overwhelmed.

#🎃 Cryptid Sighting #AHHH I FORGOT TO TURN THE QUEUE BACK ON. Heck. #It wasn’t the sort of mindset that talking w/folks outside the situation would have helped- #- I just want to make that clear because I have a couple beloved mutuals who have offered to chat if I needed it #ILU guys! My communication just tends to shut down in this type of situation #On the plus side- I’m picking up a few shifts from coworkers who have already quit. So … yay? #Also forgot to start working on something for HL/VRAI’s anniversary - was going to start a doll today to coincide w/the first stream’s date #Guess I can get some planning in before bed. In my opinion it still counts as the previous day until you go to bed :)

something that makes me feel guilty is the fact that seeing that persons face rn literally makes me angry. they walked into class and i nearly winced. and in all fairness they were quite kind to me. outside of the several kind of odd red flags. girl whatever. to be quite frank i am a horny bastard and vocal proud etc but few people interest me enough to actually want to hang out with and get to know And i have deep seated intimacy issues so it's like. we really dont have a shot unless the circumstances r exactly right on a full moon perfect thursday of a month etc like. well and tbh i probably would have fucked around with this person but i dont... care... about some big relationship w them.. and i know i could be a relationship girl like eventually i have it in me to have a muse that's what im built for i think idc but not rn... rn i need to hang out with my friends and do my film stuff and have people that maybe wanna make out sometimes is that so much to ask for. for a lesbian at a bar to want to make out perhaps. ** for there to be lesbians at the bars to potentially make out with.

#and i am quite lonely yes thank u for asking. yeah someday id love to get to know someone again in the context of falling in love #what about it. so what now. i dont think im meant for our understanding of romantic love but boy do i crave it #why am i having this moment rn. well ok consider im on my period all i could think about this morning was [redacted] and both parties #of my dyke drama were back in class today. and the one gay person that i think has a crush on me but we dont see each other super often #so im just. guessing based on the way awkward lesbians communicate. idk #and i feel really just mean but i quite literally dont have it in me to pretend to be nice to this person anymore #i wasnt like. some villain for realizing we were acting really coupley and being like oh shit because i didnt want to hurt them #. and trying to communicate and put some distance between us when i thought they were probably in too deep. it's unfortch it took me a sec #but jesus christ yk i cant walk around and feel awkward about it forever. and im frustrated by the fact that we're just acting so odd #but again frankly i think it's largely bc they have an unhealthy relationship with dating. THROWING HORIZONTAL PUNCHES HERE. #OK. STONES FROM A GLASS HOUSE. IM AWARE. REAL RECOGNIZES REAL. #and YET. despite my past insanity. ive been kind. i can understand disappointment and a little awkwardness #but jesus would you rather i pretend to be in love with you for months and then really break your heart. #this is where i get mean and make a joke like well hey if we couldve had weird really mediocre sad angry dyke sex abt it #that would have been cool with me. but alas. we're here instead and it's fucking with my friendships too #and like we were kind of ok friends too. what now. its just u me and this brick wall u built between us bitch #now was EYE not answering texts for a minute. we dont need to get into it. #because the thing IS if i dont play things exactly right. and im not good at that without prior planning. i will accidentally say or do #something that i know. again. from being insane myself. would be just enough for them to hold onto hope #and im not trying to do that to them you know. i was trying to help with the detachment. shitty as it may be. i dont fucking know dude #this post is going to make me look kind of. well. whatever u guys have seen me at my worst. mostly. and post #ok one last thing sorry if this makes me sound like i have a giant ego. like wow heres this person who really liked me and im just shitting #all over them. not what im meaning to do but whatever

#boy oh boy everything is quite a lot #rn i am attempting to keep firmly in my mind that it is past 9pm and thus my feelings of desperate overwhelm are not entirely accurate #however there is. a lot. #sending resumes and having conversations about next years overseas internship. #academics. a big paper due in two weeks. #planning a campus worship nught with a friend. #beung on the worship team for a conference next week. #going on the first date of my entire life in two days. #leading my small group. #like 87 people i know are getting married this year and some of them im close to. that's a thing. #stressing about my summer job. #trynna book medical appointments. and do my taxes. #and not feel like im letting everyone down all the time (this is definitely the after 9pm of it all) #hnnngggg i cant even complain because i signed up for all of this and im excited about it all and glad im doing it. #i just dont wanna do it all at once. #ok time to do 10 mins of vocal practice and put myself to bed. #and please pray for me if you think to

I'm finally taking a fucking vacation from my job next week

#I've never gotten the chance to use my vacation time at work before quitting #but Im not currently able to leave where I work and I'll lose my PTO on my anniversary date (sept 13th) #so I decided to say fuck it an use ut the first week of September #wish I could have saved it for the second week since my birthday is September 15th but again my PTO gets reset the 13th #so this will have to do #I'm not going on an actual vacation this year. just planning various enjoyable activities and day trips throughout the week #Im hoping on the first day to attend a local flea market #and the next day or two to go swimming before the pool in my apartment complex closes for the year #I also plan to visit a historical town thats about a half hour away from where I live #and I'm definitely going to sleep in a lot of these days cause I need to catch up on some sleep finally #I'll probably draw on my less busy days #and maybe I can knock out a chapter or 2 of the story I've been writing #tbh luck is never with me so the chances of me actually getting to do half of this stuff is slim #but at least I can say I have plans #I'm gonna try n do this stuff even if I have to go alone #I hate waiting around for others so I can go out and have a good time #like yeah some of these activities are better with other people #but people often find excuses to get out of hanging out or going places. or they're busy with work #and I don't want to waste the 7 days Im gonna have off so Im gonna try n do something meaningful during them #the weather also will effect how my plans turn out. I bet it'll rain the entire week lol. that'd be my luck #but Im still gonna try and have a decent time off #at the absolute least I am going to relax and unwind. thats the bare minimum I can doo #sam's rants about life

[arolesbianism]

Ohhhh no it just occured to me that Im probably gonna be seeing a unbearable hoard of bad aro hcs in the dst tag this month huh. Uhhhh gentle reminder that just because Wx used to be human doesn't make hcing them as aro risk free pls be careful with that. Aro ppl who hc them as aro ur fine keep up the good work 👍

#rat rambles #dst #wx-78 #like theyre arospec in my hcs so I wish I could be happy abt the idea of seeing aro wx stuff but alas I do not trust ppl with aro hcs #in casw youre curious the quick rundown of potential wx aro problems #just because they used to be human the aro robot trope could still become a problem if you chose to tie it to their empathy module #like thats quite possibly the worst thing you could do like thats fucked on so many levels #relating to that is the risk of evil aro and emotionless aro shit #this doesnt necesarily mean saying their aro because their evil directly but I dont have time to go too into detail since I need to shower #oh but one last thing mean aro is also a thing #rly the big thing is just like. think abt how you would word your reason for hcing them as aro #for example if its like yeah I think theyre too busy planning world domination to care abt romance then I am very much not a fan lol #because that kind of stuff rly ties together romantic attraction and relationships in a way I rly dont like #like idk. if theres a character that considers friendship a waste of time we wouldnt say theyre incapable of liking ppl #it just heavily simplifies the aro experience in a way that can also easily lead to other writing issues #for example the framing of aromanticism as a personal disinterest in dating gives room for a specific reason theyre not interested in it #for example. being a robot. or being evil. fun stuff like that #ok god its late I cant keep going on like this idk I might talk abt it more at another point or if I see ppl being dumb lol

[katnissgirlsmakedo]

um i already want this week to be over. cordelia you were supposed to fix me wtf girl. (i have not even been reading cordelia. maybe if i had been i would be doing better)

#tomorrow i have to like. film this project but i’m working around my partner’s schedule which is fucking packed for some reason. #it’s like girl quit your job so we can do this lol #and then idk if we’ll even finish tomorrow so that might be my wednesday too. #and then the only day i even have classes this week is thursday. #and the first one will be fine as always. and the second one is the class we have all these projects for #which would be manageable if we weren’t like. a week behind on LEARNING how to DO the projects before their fucking due dates. #this man seriously needs to just lob off a project because like. man if we’re gonna be this consistently behind i cannot keep living under #these conditions this is terrible. i don’t even know for sure that the project is due thursday. it might be due next tuesday. #and like. i’m already turning this one in late so i really need to not be flopping like this all semester. #and then my last class thursday is the adaptations class which ughhhhhh #no i didn’t read the book. i will tonight when i finish this stupid editing project i’m so fucking sick of looking at #and like. i just wish this week had like. a schedule. i wish there was a Plan. you know. #like any concrete plan. so much is just. up in the air idk whatever #and like. i can be chill i’m a chill person in general. but i’m not this chill. shawn you need to get your fucking class together. #shawn is my professor. i might be spelling that wrong idk if it’s sean or shaun or shawn or whatever the fuck #anyway. gotta finish this #and i WILL do my quizzes this week. i will remember #this will not be a repeat of last semester. #beth.txt

#one of my favorite coworkers gave their two weeks notice and only told me today 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 #we don’t work directly together because of the nature of our job but like i’m so fucking sad #we promised we’d still be friend and stuff and i know we will but like omg i’m so sad #ugh whack their reason is solid for leaving and it has nothing to do with the job but omfg #anyways we still have plans set for after their quit date so i guess there’s that #personal

#fuck me i woke up from a nap like 3 hours ago and i completely forgot i have work today until my dad thankfully reminded me #but i have to be awake in like 6 hours and i so badly don't want to go to work #i want to be in my room and write sad poetry and think about my recent experiences with romance and dating #i feel so burned out about life rn. it's shit!!!!! #i tried looking for some full time jobs earlier and as alluring as job security and steady pay is #simply working ~30 hours a week rn is making me want to rip someone to shreds constantly #idk!! im so sick of this!! i haven't been so tempted to just quit without having a backup plan #they speak! #at least most of the coworkers i like will be working today... at least going to work means getting to see them :')

[gideonisms]

good god. If anyone knows how to turn off the brain setting that is like. If I do not write this perfectly I will die but also I Cannot get started or I will die. Let me know

#i'm suffering #because the prof was like what are your plans after this class and i was listing jobs i might apply to #he was like no i mean ur grad school plans and we had the whole conversation u know the one teachers sometimes have with you #it would be a waste of potential to do *whatever terrible job you are doing* instead of like. continuing to write papers #and he was really kind so i kind of played it off like haha you haven't read my final paper don't make up ur mind yet #but he said if my paper was good i should discuss my options for grad school afterwards with him and like. fine okay #i was planning to go to trade school after this maybe but like #1 conversation about my other options would be nice don't look a gift horse in the mouth etc #of course i'm wary af i don't trust an authority figure as far as i can throw them but you know. my paper was good i know this for a fact #point is now this paper has to be good or i'll become an electrician. or whatever #and u know what it definitely will be good it's just it won't be quite as good as the last one and i have #work hours and like due dates and i also have to eat food and experience experiences and everything is extremely bright and loud this month! #this is exactly why i am not living up to my 'full' 'potential'. this is exactly why i work the job i do which by the way someone has to #someone has to check out ur groceries and listen to you complain and my only real quarrel with it is the pay and the fact that #i'm just wildly unsuited to it as far as personality goes. like this is just because i can imitate everyone else #i do it in my papers too. i just think of the last peer reviewed paper i read and make my writing also do that #in a way i'm constantly writing fic. when u think about it #if you're wondering whether it has inhibited my 'own' 'voice' the answer is yes! it has.

[moinsbienquekaworu]

But also I can't just go up to my closest friend and say "actually I kinda wish you didn't find a girlfriend because while I do want you to be as happy as humanly possible I don't want to become a lukewarm second best when she's not available to do things :) " Like you simply cannot go up to someone and say that. What would they even answer?? Because the obvious thing to say is "that won't happen, I value you and our friendship" but 1) how can you know 2) love isn't limited but time sure is 3) amatonormativity. But I just can't SAY THAT that's just weird and not cool to him, that's just me having a problem

#today on 'ram is struggling with aromanticism and relationships' #which is partially why i told him i had a crush on him #like if I'M the girlfriend we're good #but that's a bad reason to date someone so that didn't work out #i feel like i'm making evil plans or whatever #to be clear i am not. when they get a girlfriend i'll be happy for them! he's a super cool person and he deserves a lot of joy! #but like. it's understandable i don't want us to drift apart i think #i can SEE the evenings we spend in vc becoming less frequent. i just - KNOW we'll end up drifting apart #it's already happened it will happen again #and i'll accept my fate when it happens! #i'll be fine with seeing each other less and i won't be an annoying idiot #i'm already doing it with other friends #but i'm a little happy it's not happening quite yet #god it's gonna be like that my entire life actually #bummed myself out :) that's cool :) #wow i have a ramble tag now

[lilgynt]

my friends like invite him to go clubbing with us! i’m gonna club my brain in.

#personal #one i invited someone else already so im not gonna be like hey single friend lemme go off with whatever this dude is and leave you with #my friend you don’t know with her boyfriend #then that’s such a weird driving situation #like do we stick with the original game plan of having friends bf drive and then have that dude meet up or #do i have him pick me up and go pick up friend which insane to ask second hang out #ah!!! #and then it’s like well you’re only considering the second possibility bc you enjoy his company and wouldn’t mind him driving you home #which leads into like well. what is this. #cause yes we’ve been talking for like a few weeks #had a very nice date #talked about getting TESTED #is it like. are we. just talking are we hitting and quitting are we gonna be 🫣 #which is like what do *i* want #which crazy enough! i actually really like this dude so i wouldn’t mind a relationship #but then it’s like okay. what if he doesn’t like me. or only wants sex. hnnnn #and now i’m embarrassed about everything like damn he fr saw me spam my insta im gonna kill my self #what’s the appropriate amount of time to respond to a message- not what’s the appropriate #to ignore than respond but what makes it seem like i’m not waiting by the phone #which novel experience outside of friendship #and i’m trying to logic myself out of it like hey. good experience whichever way this goes #you got some talking practice went on a proper date that wasn’t dennys that you half paid for after they explained their whole books plots #I CAN TALK MY LEGITMENT POLITICS AND BELIEFS. #experience. which great. doesn’t do anything the whole im fumbling feeling like at alll #this is mortifying and i hate it. like i cannot exaggerate it’s a little disgusting #oh and then okay he has the time and does go clubbing #I CSNT FUCKING DANCE. #and the WORST bit. is im kicking my feet and giggling when we’re talking like die!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #i’m getting butterfly’s listening to the playlist he made me #regardless how this goes i am not doing this again this is way too stressful

literally free falling through life at this stage

#me from five years ago would have a panic attack over my current day to day #I quite literally am that bitch that does everything last minute #am prepared for absolutely nothing all the time always #also have been doing third shift for about four months now so time and my sleep schedule is a joke #and with that dating is hard and mostly dumb bc no one really is interested in commitment these days it seems #guess I will settle for friends with benefits and just be in love with him from a distance hahaha 🙃 #birthday is also soon so yay for persisting through the struggle for another year #took off work but do I have anything special planned? #absolutely not bc I have no friends and no goals other than survival #I heart being alive and feeling full of purpose #delete later when I am sober hahah #tw

#personal #scary how I'm doing both better and worse than last year #materially better mentally much worse #physically not great either but i sprained my ankle on christmas eve last year and then my knee on the 30th so at least i don't have that #but the year felt so full of possibilities and now I'm exhausted from trying to do them all #i had broken up with my ex but i was getting to know someone new so that was exciting #i had plans for 2023 #and even though most things did come out quite well I'm mentally exhausted and burnt out #and of course the new relationship didn't work or becase if i wasn't really ready he was much less than i #and my self esteem really took a hit #dating someone emotionally unavailable is an exercise in futility #don't do this to yourselves #and now I'm that burnt out emotionally unavailable person #but at least i can acknowledge that #and yet #it felt exciting and full of promise and now I'm just tired and sad

“sunflowers or peonies?”

“awe, nanami! i’m flattered—”

“they’re not for you,” nanami says flatly. “you can buy your own.”

shoko squints down at the man lying on her exam table, arm held up and behind his head. “i’m quite literally stitching you back together, you know.”

the blond thinks bitterly on what had landed him in her infirmary in the first place, injured and likely having to reschedule dinner tonight. it’s already well past the time he’d planned on picking you up, and the table he’d reserved at the new restaurant in roppongi has likely been given away.

he’s dreading calling to tell you, his heart already twinging at the idea of letting you down.

shoko stitches him up neatly, cleaning and covering it up with a layer of bandages. she offers him a hand to help him sit up, but he bypasses it to plant his palm against the cot, pushing himself up with a groan.

she rolls her eyes, peeling her gloves off and pulling her mask down, tossing them both into the trash. “clean and dress it at least twice a day. no sudden movements of strenuous activity for at least a week. if you ruin my work, i’ll put you on bedrest.”

she digs through her cabinets as he awkwardly pulls his shirt back on. his mind drifts to you as he does so. he’d lost his phone in the fight, so he hadn’t been able to tell you about cancelling.

he wonders if the pout on your lips is painted your lips that shade of red you’d been wearing when he’d first met you. wonders if you’re waiting wearing the dress he’d gifted you last week.

he’d really wanted to see you in that dress.

nanami sighs heavily as he does up the buttons, prompting shoko to glance over her shoulder at him.

“what’s wrong with you?” she asks, setting a small bottle of painkillers on the tray table next to him.

“i’m missing an important dinner,” he grumbles, wondering if just a bundle sunflowers or peonies from the small stall outside is enough. he should order you a proper bouquet from a shop. perhaps he can also book you a massage or—

a knock at the door interrupts his spiralling.

“oh!” shoko suddenly gasps. she reaches up, brushing a few stray hairs from his forehead and fixing it as best she can.

“what are you doing?” he asks, genuinely confused in this moment.

“you’ll see,” she simply grins, sending him a wink. then, “come in!”

the door to the infirmary opens to reveal…you.

“kento,” you breathe, the quiet click of your heels echoing through the empty room as you quickly walk towards him.

he’s shocked, but lets you carefully wrap your arms around him, cradling his head against your chest.

but before he knows it he’s holding onto you too, breathing in the deep, sweet scent of your perfume and focusing on the steady beat of your heart.

“what are you doing here?” he asks once you finally release him, taking your hands in his.

“shoko called me,” you tell him. “apparently…apparently i’m your emergency contact.”

his face is suddenly hot with embarrassment. he’d honestly forgotten about that. he hadn’t even realized he’d done it when yaga had asked him to update his information with the school. your name had been the first and only name to pop into his mind.

“sorry,” he apologizes quickly, dropping your hands. he jumped the gun, didn’t he? you’ve only been dating for six months… “i should have asked you first but—”

but no one knows me better than you.

a soft sigh slips from your lips as you sit next to him, with a gaze so reverent that it strips him to the bone. “i love you, kento. i will be your emergency contact as long as you want me to be.”

he whispers the words back to you, suddenly shy.

sometimes nanami lets himself slip a little too far into his own head, overthinking and a little insecure. but you’re always there, ready to coax him back into the light.

“you look beautiful,” he murmurs, taking your hand and pressing a kiss to your knuckles. he’s seen you in a lot of dresses, each one making him weak in the knees. but this dress…this one makes it a little hard for him to breathe.

“well, you still owe me a date,” you tell him, helping him up off the cot. “we could go to the ramen place across from my apartment.”

he wraps an arm around your shoulders, and you reach up to intertwine your fingers with his. “i’d go anywhere with you.”
