HELP, I FINALLY FOUND THE FANFIC CRACKSHIP I HAVE BEEN SEARCHING FOR! It was deleted from ao3, but somebody uploaded nearly every fanfic published for years now up to a public folder to download. It was the only one ever written, and I got it now. The only one with that tag, and relationship.
P.S. if anybody of any fandom is looking for an old ao3 fanfic, lmk! It takes a while due to the fic folders being huge, the one I’m downloading after downloading a 6.3 gb file is now 34.8 gb, though it is the biggest sooo. IT WILL take a while, but I will find fics for people if anybody needs. Took me so long to understand.
I’m so happy.

the way that one line from the new epilogue in an astarion romance is going to HAUNT me
just. what a profoundly intense thing to confess to someone.
like, just these six months of newfound happiness with you exerts a force on his heart equal and in direct opposition to two centuries of endless torment, the gnawing hunger and exploitation. this flashbulb-bright fraction of his long life holds the same gravity to him as years upon years of darkness and suffering.
in all likelihood, he hasn’t even known his lover for as long as his worst memory lasted, that year sealed away to go mad from starvation and sensory deprivation, yet he still tells them this brief time has been so fundamentally and powerfully important that the weight of even that unimaginable hell is vanishingly small compared to this present he has now and the future ahead of them both.
how am i supposed to act normal about this.

Now that I have a New and Fancy job title (as of Monday), would it be a complete dick move to add my post grad degrees to my email signature???
Like. It's standard in the field. Everyone I email OUTSIDE of my organization includes them. I probably need help being taken seriously because I am Young Baby Child among mostly older professionals and am talked over in meetings by everyone except the IT guy (bc Ive proven to him I actually know what I'm doing and I'm the only non-IT computer literate person in the building) and one extremely elderly coworker who is my favourite person in the whole world and listens to me when I voice my opinions.
HOWEVER. My boss doesn't use hers in her email signature + I have more advanced degrees than she does. So like. It would look shitty. But I'm concerned abt being taken seriously by outside ppl (I already KNOW I'm not taken seriously by ppl inside the org, but y'know, non profit hell + I am the youngest person in the building by a SIGNIFICANT amount and have chronic baby face syndrome so I'm walking around looking like an animal crossing villager despite early greys and laugh lines)

IT'S OFFICIALLY TIME TO WELCOME NORUMI INTO THE SPOTLIGHT!♡♡♡
Norumi was born & raised in the Alabaster Icelands as the middle child sandwiched between an overachieving sister & a charming workaholic brother. She is naturally very quiet & reserved thanks to having two very colorful & exciting siblings outshining her no matter what she tried. She became more distant from people as she grew older, having no interest in their nonsensical going-ons.
Though everyone in the Pearl Clan was naturally weary & frightened of pkmn, Rumi found peace in being around them & began secretly studying & observing nearby pkmn in free time. She was especially fond of swinubs because they were just SO cute!!
One hatching season, she got too enraptured by the adorable wild pig babies, attempting to draw the cute scene of its parents nuzzling the newly hatched swinub, when the herd's alpha piloswine took notice of her popping out of her hidden spot, & it charged at the poor girl immediately.
She just barely got away, but the beast trampled her journal & writing tools, before it let out an enraged cry and evolved before her eyes, doing its very damndest to protect the herd's young.
She absolutely froze up, but was saved when a machoke came bursting through the trees and began wrestling with the monstrous mamoswine by its tusks.
Norumi was just staring in awe, when Warden Ingo grabbed her wrist & began hastily dragging her out of the way. They hid temporarily behind a large pile of snow as the battle raged on, eventually ending with the warden's pkmn willingly retreating back to it's ball at the warden's side.
The mamoswine continued in its blind rampage & circled the area multiple times, & Rumi nearly cried out in fear at one close call, which resulted in Ingo covering her mouth as the two huddled quietly together. Eventually, the beast calmed & returned to watching over the other pig pkmn, satisfied that the danger was gone.
The two breathed a sigh of relief & the warden extended a hand, offering to walk the girl back to the village. First though, she begged him to help her go back to retrieve her belongings, though hesitant to get too close to the pig pkmn herd, he agreed to assist right away.
After quietly sifting through the trampled snow, Ingo found a handful of her smashed tools and what was left of Rumi's journal, the one she'd been using since a young adventurous teen to study pkmn... it was in terrible shape & absolutely brutalized.
The girl who'd been teased for having a frozen unfeeling heart since she was young felt herself falling apart & she cried as she held onto the destroyed book that had been her most treasured belonging.
Ingo helped her put all of her damaged items in a fabric pouch & they carefully retreated back to the village, with Lady Sneasler waiting for them at the village's entrance.
Heartbroken & feeling like an idiot for what had happened, she was sure the warden was going to sell her out to Irida or even her own family, but instead, he informed her that he'd be staying in the Icelands for two weeks on the leader's orders. He promised her he'd try to help replace some of the items she'd lost & that if she wanted company on her next outing, he'd be happy to provide her some much needed support.
He left her with a tip of the hat and she could only just watch him go, suddenly realizing she might have just a little tiny crush growing on the warden OH NO
[Part 2 coming soon...]
