#i managed to get a couple on some people

[alicesbread]

I really need to write a fic where Glinda sees Dorothy and goes "yup. You're my child now." And then after a torturing slowburn her and the wicked witch get together so Dorothy has aunt Em and Uncle Henry at home, and whenever she goes to Oz she has her witch lesbian moms waiting for her.

#they would be such a power couple #also this would make a good twoo/wicked mix #dotothy really needs some affection lets give her two moms why not #at first elphaba would be like “ugh this stupid kid” until she finally warms up and stops being as evil #glinda is the “i can fix her” fr fr #also the scarecrow and the tin man are her gay uncles #dorothy has a whole non biological family in oz and somehow manages to get people together #fanfic idea #dorothy gale #wicked witch x good witch #glinda the good #gelphie #elphaba thropp #glinda upland #the wizard of oz #wicked

#my psych who prescribes my psych meds is a resident and is moving on in a couple of months #i don't even remember the names of them all at this point #this happens over and over and I cannot find a clinic that will put me with someone who intends to stay #thst will also prescribe my adhd meds #and my anxiety meds #and the real kicker is that twice now they have LIED about it and said they would #only to reveal after all the hoop-jumping that oops sorry they didn't really mean it #so it's a risk i have to take any time i leave #and rhen there's the issue of new people almost always wanting to DO something #but instead of talking to me about it they just decide that my meds need overhauling and pressure me to go off shit that works #but that they morally object to i guess #and my psych for some stupid reason has decided she wants bloodwork for my cholesterol and blood sugar stuff and im just like #what hell does THIS presage because if she harasses me about the results or tries to put me on drugs for that #I'll give her a nasty scrap about it #im not interested in those meds at all #and im certainly not messing with my diet since food is the only pleasure i get most days and even that is marginal at best #and removing that would just make me worse #but medpros for the most part really don't give a fuck about that #and so now im afraid - because i do not and cannot trust them - that if i disapprove of the meds they will retaliate somehow #which good luck proving that when management and oversight often don't even care if they course of treatment will HARM you #if it relates to being fat or having bad numbers #they just gotta pathologize! #so yeah im sick of everything and just kind of want to bury myself in a bog forever #i shouldn't have to deal with this

for like 3 weeks i was wondering why i was sleeping so much and felt listless. and just now I managed to email 3 people and responded to a month old message in the span of an hour because I got back to TAKING MY FUCKIN MEDS..........

#MOTHER FFFFUCKER #to be fair. my doc said I could stop taking them while im on break since i wouldnt need to be constantly pumped on stimulants #im not sure if it was a side effect but i managed to take like 3 different naps in one day and STILL managed to sleep thru the whole night #at least 2 days into my break. the weird thing is i didnt feel more or less rested afterwards. but mentally i think im in a good place rn #to really put the level of awakeness im at rn i feel weirdly confident i could start one piece. also bc of that sick new opening it BANGS #the song is really good and im in love with the animation style. did some digging and it seems one of the lead animators is masato mori #but i could be wrong. it seems he also did some work on mp100 which could explain a lot lol.. he uses smear frames really well to convey #consistent movement and fluidity!!! someone else might have done color design but it works really really well esp with odas style!! #just love the overall vibe and aesthetic and id really love to study it and incorporate a bit of it into my art.. especially the thick #outlines which i think helps to separate characters and objects on screen. though i have to say the style is definitely more suited to #animation bc of the simpleness and smears. maybe that will help me explore shapes and perspective when i draw... i wanna get better #at drawing poses and angles but i have a hard time wrapping my head around space and using perspective guide lines NGHHHH #i wonder if it has to do with my dogshit ability to judge distance. not depth perception but like. judge how far smth is in metres etc #im also wearing an N95 for the first couple weeks back bc of the wave. absolutely NO BODY is wearing a mask its so fucking over #where im sitting ive heard 5 different people coughing probably not into their elbows!!! and im just. head in my fucking hands #there was a kid sitting a couple seats away in class coughing as he pleases and i wanted to grab him in a chokehold so badly. PLEASEE #ive been annoying my family by asking them to mask up and reminding them to bring masks when they go out and showing them news articles #but at least its working bc we ordered some KN95s and my mom is at least taking me seriously so. please dont be afraid to speak up abt your #health. take care of yourself and others however u can!! wear that mask indoors at your maskless friends house!!! stay home when u can!! #im wearing a surgical mask at home too bc my parents have '''a dry throat cough''' and they are so bad at coughing into their sleeves #also im pretty sure dry throat isnt transmissible bc my brother started coughing too so.. i also tested negative but they havent tested yet #im also not a doctor but i have to keep reminding ppl whenever i can that covid and flu work differently. covid is new and too recent to #have nearly as much research done on it. it seems its also compounding so instead of building immunity it weakens the body and spreads to #to other systems which might explain brain fog and muscle weakness. i remember someone early in the pandemic got infected and it messed up #their smell/taste receptors so bad that they cant eat most foods and that stays in the front of my mind when i think abt covid. christ #yapping

@bardistraee's Avraham + @edgier-than-a-diamond's Allen. Bless them they are so patient with my shenanigans.

Yes René is in the background but this isn't about him. Look at how on fire that ogre is. Clearly it was all Avraham. What a legend.

Hopefully René learned a little bit about how to perform well as a thief from him c:

Bonus pic of the aftermath of the same fight because Allen hovering menacingly sends me. He sure does love doing that as a mage! Awesome support though.

Allen found a unique way to get my attention. Not sure if René disapproves or if he's just trying desperately not to laugh.

Nighttime Battahl. René maxed thief so I changed his vocation to archer. Poor Avraham had to be the sole melee...and tbh he absolutely killed it. Allen is unfortunately out of frame somewhere, but this was a still pretty cool shot.

I was luckily able to complete both pawns' quests this time! I did also keep them for like 22 in-game days though haha.

#dragon's dogma 2 #i did mostly questing and attempted some pawn training for the past couple of sessions #also managed to empty most of my gold reserves so i need to do some farming #i need to kill some gore chimeras anyway bc i wasnt paying attention and now im out of black freakish mane rip #dd2 adventures #ps i see all the new people on the spreadsheet! i will be getting to them soonish <3

always love it when i go through a Major Crisis but you wouldn't guess from the way i post <3 anyways I'm going through a Major Crisis

#will probably need to visit a crisis centre in the next couple of hours I'm just waiting for my mum to get here #its always like 'this cannot continue' and it always does and it always makes me feel shitty in the long run #i feel like im missing some kind of component that other people have #like i genuinely dont know how people manage to live life #when im on the verge of kms like every single day even when I'm 'happy' #i just want to die all the time #like thats not great 👍 #and unfortunately its hard for other people as well not just me #and i keep getting into these situations when others worry about me and idk what to say like 'dont worry' is a lie. but also like #i dont want them to worry #you see

drawing more furry fnaf art. yknow just to keep you posted. i love posting in the tags sorry these ones got away from me

#sammy is a brown bear (like freddy). his mom is white like funtime freddy #then crying child is blue (like bon bon. and to go with lizzies bonnet pink) (theyre not twins in my au but they definitely act like it. so #its like cute.) mrs. afton is blue violet (rockstar bonnie) bc i was running out of colors. i had already assigned her blue anyway. #max is black bc i seriously ran out of rabbit colors. or! no wait shadow bonnie. thats totally the inspo and not i had made his ears black #already. i think thats literally every rabbit color available. the afton family is pretty big. ig vanny. who would go with vanessa. obvi bu #shes not in my au. or at least not an afton. and therefore not a rabbit. if she was though shed be white. #and if you havent seen any previously drawn ones henry and william are yellow (obviously. they already have fursonas. theyre the reason #everyone else gets one. LOL) micheals purple like classic bonnie (who... is purple even if it was then retconned. hes purple. look at #withered bonnie. i hate ppl who say its just lighting. thats a lie by big blue bonnie. he was literally purple and then he changed his mind #like i said lizzie is pink like bonnet. and then charlie is black like lefty. because duhh. #DONT ask me about how this shit works okay. the rabbit dated the rabbit and the bear dated the bear. bc thats what happened. theres not #here. the bears got divorced. and the rabbits. the yellow rabbit and bear are fucking #no um. i like willry but i think if they were really fucking. i just think things would go differently. henry's gay in my au i dont think i #he actually had a man to fuck he'd manage to have children. its not who he is to me. will is bi but he obv thinks henry is some exception t #him being perfectly normal and straight. everyone wants to fuck their business partner. otherwise youd do it yourself #ig they can fuck after. i hate when people do these boring aus where henry and william never get married and william isnt a murderer and so #like what? theres nothing? just a couple of guys? if im looking for fics where theyre fucking im not looking for a fic where everything is #nice and clean. be serious. can we at least have some angst about it being the 70s or are you too much of a bitch for that too #anyway..... #simons spouting #simons fnaf au #OH also if anyone reads this whats the stance on this stupid idea i have where sammy pretends he has a thing for michael to annoy max. bc. #their parents had a thing for eachother. and sammy and max have a more familial relationship. and michael and charlie have a familial #relationship. but michael and sammy have barely met and do not at all. is it pushing it? i was thinking yknow from sammys perspective that' #'his sons' dad but! like you can fuck your sons dad. that's not weird. unless thats the way youre phrasing it i guess LOL. but i guess #michael would be like. thats 'my sisters' brother. and that is not someone you fuck*. BUT this isnt michaels perspective its sammy being #annoying. and from sammys perspective that is NOT his sister and there for NOT his sisters brother. *also im pretty sure this is subjective #if youre just friends. yknow. the ethics of sammy using this to bother max is not on the table because i think he deserves to be a #a bit of an ass. anyway LMAOO fkdglfg. let me know if youd like ive got anon asks on. please dont judge me for not knowing this.

THAT’S SO COOL????? I’m not into video games but GOD they reincarnate and are in love every time??? princess and knight??? also I’ve been wanting to say this for ages but link is sooooo gender. you get it

so. they are in love in the sense that nintendo is queerbaiting me. queerbaiting me with a "straight" couple (they are lesbians). they are not canon they kissed only in the second ever zelda game when there was only the barest story and they were nothing more than pixel sprites and they have not been canon since. and because every game is technically a different link and a different zelda, each individual game varies on how shippable they actually are? like, I'm not very far through twilight princess yet but I've heard they're pretty much just coworkers in that one. the three latest mainline games though, they're like. they're pretty much canon in all but name like you could say it's platonic but like at that point you are running on loads of denial. the three latest mainline games are skyward sword, which is the first link and zelda, the start of the cycle. the plot ENTIRELY revolves around how much link loves zelda. cause they're best friends, hyrule as a kingdom doesn't even exist yet (they live on an island in the sky) she falls to earth and is running around having to discover that she's a reincarnated goddess (that's a whole angst factor btw bc the goddess (hylia) had to fight demise and she won but knew it was temporary and knew demise would have to be defeated again, and that he would need to be defeated with the power of the triforce, which can only be wielded by humans, so she decided basically that she'd need a loyal human knight, and so she reincarnated into a human girl because a girl is loved in the way a goddess isn't and she knew someone would love a human girl enough to save her WHICH HAPPENS so basically zelda gets to have an identity crisis was she just dragging link towards this destiny the whole time? did she truly love him? did he truly love her? are they puppets in this grand plan? "I'm still your zelda" she says to him, but is she??? drives me nuts) and he, ever loyal, keeps running after her to save her again and again and again (link is so dog coded there's a great botw fic about this), and then they defeat demise and he curses them and link is just some guy who went through ALL THIS SHIT cause he LOVED zelda. what if you were in love with your best friend and it cursed you and your descendants for the rest of time this is so francesca by hozier I'd tell them put me back in it I'd go through it again if i could hold you for a minute. and then the next two mainline games are breath of the wild and tears of the kingdom and breath of the wild involves an amnesia plot so you basically watch link fall in love with zelda a second time and then in tears of the kingdom they are. common law married. they share a house. there's only one bed. do NOT get me FUCKING STARTED on the hateno house. and nintendo still plays FUCKING COY zelda's english va has to be like "they... have a really close bond...." this is how I know they're queer you wouldn't do this with straight people. and then people also ship ocarina of time (most popular and well known game of the series most praised for its story) zelink a lot but that's an older game I haven't played yet so I can't speak on them. zelda is so transmasc in that one though this I know. I talk about link being genderqueer a fair amount and everyone on this internet knows link is trans but trust. zelink is t4t

#also I love that you said “princess and knight” like it's another awesome factor about them cause yes so true #but so many people are like “UGH the princess and knight trope🙄” LIKE YOU DON'T GET IT!!! IT'S ABOUT DEVOTION!!! #tbf the zelda plot is always that you have to save zelda and nintendo won't break out of this winning formula #so I suppose for a lot of people it just feels sexist and tired and whatnot #but I've played only the latest games so I'm able to look past it cause zelda manages to still be a really good character from the sideline #also. they're literally in love. um. why do you hate true love and soulmates #anyway TECHNICALLY they're not in love every time. cause. as I said. twilight princess #(also there's some zelda games that don't follow the standard plot (such as link's awakening which I've played its SO GOOD btw) #so there isn't. a zelda and ganon. so obviously no zelink there) #but whether or not they're actually romantically involved I do think it's critical that they are SO SO SO SO IMPORTANT to each other #in which case if they are genuinely just coworkers in twilight princess I do think that's a failing of twilight princess #ask #witch-of-aiaia #hi aiaia! #also. fun detail here. link is a silent protag and they tend to make him a bit of a blank slate in the games #so when I say zelink is in love I am simultaneously working with the bare ass minimum in regards to link #and yet also so so so much cause of the everything he does for her #zelda being a reincarnated goddess/from the line of a reincarnated goddess is so crazy insane to me btw #she's links patron goddess he's her ever loyal servant they're UGHHHHHH #I could talk forever about them. evidently. they're so important to me. only couple I've written fic for

This is my first time ever living in a multi-story home. (I've lived in multi-story buildings before, but I only ever lived on one floor of those buildings at a time.) So I'm really not sure what to do about the fact that there's only one thermostat but the first and second floors have pretty different temperatures.

#the thermostat is on the second floor #so even if I turn the heat on the first floor is still pretty cold by the time the second floor reaches temperature #I think the second floor might have more vents too #maybe I should get a space heater for my living room #where I grew up there weren't townhouses like this #and only rich people had two story houses #well--that's not quite fair there were some new developments that had two story houses that (when I was a kid) an upper middle class family #could just manage to afford #plus there were a couple families in my parents' social group that just about straddled the line between upper middle class and rich #(mostly lawyers but also a few particularly successful doctors) #and some of them also had multi-story homes #so I did actually know a few people who had multi-story homes

you guys are being so unfair to the new VAs just cause you're attached to the old ones. it's unfortunate that they weren't asked to return, but i'm sure there were reasons behind it. especially with a certain someone who, bless his heart, cannot sing (at least in a character voice), which is really bad for a musical show, and probably was a motivating factor in the recasting. instead of harping on the past and bothering the old VAs about it, why can't you just wait to see how things shake out in the show? you could grow to like the new people. we have only a few seconds of dialogue for most of the characters, so don't be so quick to pass judgment.

#its just really frustrating to see so many people say 'there was no reason to replace x' when they dont know what happened behind the scenes #especially with angel. i have listened to addict countless times and while i love it. it is heavily autotuned and its super noticable #i dont have a preference for most of the voices cause tbh most of them sound really similar to me but ive heard blake sing and he's amazing #no hate to michael. he seems really nice but i can see why they decided to recast. and with a couple of the characters #they managed to get the people the original cast was trying to replicate the sound of. which is super cool imo #it would have been nice for some relatively unknown people to make it into the big leagues but tbh hazbin is still super niche #and the big voices help legitimize it as a 'real tv show' instead of just a youtubers passion project #and theyre actually talented too and not phoning it in

My stomach sounds like some manner of beast right now, just kind of "mhhhrmmhhbbhh"ing, like some sort of creature snuffling and grumbling

#it may in fact shock you that a single potato did not in fact fill me up #but that's what was on offer tonight #and... and between there not being a lot that I'm up to scavenging in the first place and my stomach not making me feel great... #kinda makes it hard to feel like trying to track down something to eat #what I wouldn't give to have like... a dozen big hamburgers and a spinach or romaine type salad #doubt I could eat it; but it's what I'm feeling like might actually get me out of food deficit if I did manage to eat it all #I don't want sweets; I want food; but my mom loves using her money to pick up sweets and it's like... #a couple really nice quality burgers... even... 2... maybe 4 if we're honest; that's what I'd love #maybe a classic style; a bbq one; something with some spicy peppers on it; and then... surprise me with the last one; just no tomatoes #(and only good quality lettuce; you can put it on there but only if it isn't iceburg) #if only if only if only... if only I had a fuck ton of money or if only I had the skills to make that for myself #man I could go for some food right now... just a burger; that's what I'm really craving #like I said; that sausage patty earlier just made me hungrier so I feel like I need meat #and I fucking know all those SEO articles always say there's no way you need more protein in fact you're getting too much #but I just... I want just a massive amount of meat; a mountain of it... or fuck; don't care; you get me whatever it is in it that I'm wanti #and you put it in a vegan form I don't care... I just want whatever it is I'm wanting; and it's taking the form of burgers #Just like... if I had like 50 burgers in the fridge and I could heat one up any time I was hungry #I might actually be full for once after like a week (and maybe out of burgers) #I know I'm better off than most people; I know I'd be fine if I just wasn't so stupid and lazy #but I'm so fucking hungry and have been all my life #a decent meal that comes around more than once a month (that it's rare it comes around that often) #what an amazing idea; you know? #that month where I'd bought that like month of $1 big burger coupons for smashburger... that was maybe the one time I was almost full #only meal of the day most of the days... but fuck... one big burger every day is at least something

the silly little cat fic is at 16k now and nowhere near finished. It will definitely be at least 20k, probably 25k, possibly more. What am I doing?

#Oh god I hope I can finish it #I am so motivated but there is still so much stuff to get through #And I still haven't written out a single adventure with Siren #Which I really want to add #Plus there is exactly one scene with pov Doctor and I want there to be more #Pov doctor are more like fun little in between scenes for her as Yaz does the narration usually #But I want there to be a couple at least #For some doctorriver and some doctor & siren and some thasmin from her perspective #So even if I manage to get through I will have to go back and add so much stuff #It is motivating to write for friends though and I know there are at least 3 people who are looking forward to it #So that is giving me life and motivation and joy #Like guys you don't even need to read it in the end just knowing that you'd like to makes me so happy <3 #I hope I'll get it done for you #Should I eventually give up you are still entitled to rough drafts though

I’m re-reading the 25k-ish words that I’ve written for FrankensteinWIP so far and man, it’s been so long since I actually enjoyed reading back my own text. It’s not the kind of literary prose I wish I could do, but it’s so distinctnly mine, and this book in general is such a self-indulgent project, it makes me happy just to work on it. 

On the other hand, I’m realizing more and more that I can’t juggle PhD school, youtube, and writing all at the same time. And logically I should prioritize youtube over writing because it has at least some sort of potential to become my full time job, but it hurts so much to post these videos that I spend months on and get like, a couple hundred views and 10 comments. So I would much rather focus on novels, but it makes me feel guilty. I feel like I haven’t had any sort of success with youtube yet because I don’t try hard enough, don’t post often enough, etc etc.

Doing the PhD is great because my workload is not insane, I get paid pretty well, and I love the people at my institute. I do have to manage my energy levels incredibly well and I end up burn out every few months anyway, but I make it work. Still, eventually I will graduate and will need to get a real job... and I don’t know if I can do it. Like, I don’t know if I will be able to hold a full-time post-doc position, especially a tenure track one. Especially if my chronic illnesses will keep detereorating. 

I’m hoping that after I graduate I will be able to scrape enough science writing and tutoring hours together to work part-time from home, and have time for youtube and writing. Doesn’t look very achievable now cause any freelance like this requires self-promo, and it seems like I really suck at it. But a boy can dream I guess.
