bought a copy of ‘behaving as if the god in all things mattered’ from the secondhand bookshop today and the old man checking me out patted the cover--saying he loved this book. he asked me if i wanted a bag, or if i was going to start practicing what the book preached right now. i said i didn’t need one, and thanked him. 
#captain's log#i... love. that store. i love it.#my second day in a row there. i was hoping they'd have copies of oliver sacks' 'awakenings' and 'the man who mistook his wife for a hat'#there because i wanted to send them to my younger brother--who is interested in majoring in medicine when he goes to college--and i had#looked at the sacks books they had there yesterday but i didn't remember if i'd seen them or not#they didn't have either#though they had two copies of uncle tungsten and one of gratitude#i had also gone to a bookshop (pricier--all new books) before but they only had one sacks book--everything in its place--which i got just#cause i haven't read it#but. shit!#i have a copy of awakenings i can send him and it's really the better one to send because i think its more relevant to his interests but#the man who mistook his wife for a hat was the book that made me fall in love w sacks/his writing so i was disappointed that i didnt find a#copy anywhere. and THEN i thought i'd go to the barnes and noble because it was on my way home anyhow but it turned out that it wasn't open#anymore! and the building is being turned into a thrift store. and that was my last resort. i figured they'd be very well stocked and that#it would be my best bet bc the other new bookstore is small and the secondhand bookstore--well you just never know what they have until ya#look there!#so. anyway. i can send him my copy of awakenings but i was hoping to find another one bc it might be nicer#and that way i could still have a copy for myself#but! trying to read it very quickly and get it out to him monday when the post office is open again

I love you pre-Autumn. I love you first chilly night after a hot day. I love you first crunchy leaves on the ground while the trees are still green. I love you cicadas. I love you crickets. I love you dusk sneaking in earlier for the first time. I love you deep sigh of relief after summer.

"He hums, sleepily. His gaze is trained on the fireplace now, seemingly mesmerized by the flames dancing there. But when she drapes a blanket over him he drags his gaze up to meet hers."
A young Time and Malon from this beautiful fic by the amazingly talented and lovely @adrift-in-thyme! <3

I think their formula is "they are a set. do not separate them" and yet they have been separated for most of the books 🫠

humans are beautiful and i hope someday everyone can see that were not a parasite. were not destroyers and killers and polluters by nature We help each other. We help other species. We continue to fight for better rights and better treatment of others We sing together. We cook together. We create art and traditions and languages and cultures. We save the last bite of our favourite food to share with our friends. We are lovely!

Halloween prompts year 2 day 10
Danny groaned, blearily raising his head from the nest of blankets and pillows he had made in his apartment. He had smelled something strange.
Something strong enough to wake him from his sleep. Danny got up and stumbled to the front door, cursing his luck for getting a fever so soon into his interdimentional road trip.
Peering out of his open doorway he saw a little kid shivering in the cold, badly hidden behind two trash cans in the mouth of an alley. Danny didn't think twice. In fact he didn't think at all. It wasn't uncommon for an Omega to smell a child who didn't have the scent of another Omega on them and immediately claim that child as thier own, and seeing as his home dimension had exclusively Omegas...let's just say there's a lot of drama in family court and a lot of laws pertaining to this.
So of course the next thing Danny knows is that the kid was bundled up inside his very soft and comfy makeshift nest before Danny passed out.
For the next week Danny had this mysterious fever and he acted like a parent on autopilot, barely conscious as he instinctually cared for the little boy. He made them food and cut them up into tiny bits to feed his baby and if it was handfoods like pizza rolls or sandwich triangles, Danny would hold him in his arms and rock his back and forth, humming softly as his child ate.
Eventually his heat ended (note that omegas from his world don't have heats, they don't have alphas and so they don't even know what a heat is) and Danny was very surprised he has a child in his house. But he and the baby are very emotionally attached to one another. When Danny asked what the little kids name was (and man this kid was little) the kid stared at him in the way little kids do before muttering the world "Clone" followed by what sounded suspiciously like a serial number.
Danny decided, nah. His kid now. Sucks to be the bioparent cause Danny doesn't wanna share.
Somewhere in the city, the bats were freaking out. They had raided a lab and discovered not only had one of them been cloned, but the clone had escaped and no one knew where it was. Cue panicked parental frenzy.
