#like accidentally on the new diet I'm not getting enough calories or not getting enough of some vitamin or something so it's made me oddly

Poll adventure (paventure? lol) Day 10: read the small story tidbit below the poll for more details, OR just vote based on initial impression

(✦ see past poll results + further information HERE (link) ✦)

Yesterday's poll decided that The Adventurer should join the travelers on the larger river boat for a short lunch ...

~

"Before he even fully musters the courage to shout a 'hello', the large group on the boat initiates contact first, gleefully waving at him, whooping and shouting as they near his tiny raft in the water. Apparently, some of them were betting over whether they'd actually find any other travelers out on the river today.. He fumbles over his words a bit, as always, but somehow manages to successfully get himself invited onto their boat for a quick lunch..

After safely securing his raft to the side of the boat with some spare rope, he climbs aboard, stumbling into the excitement of some sort of celebration. A few of them explain that they're traveling for 'kahesallei', an old elven holiday recently re-popularized in some of the larger cities nearby. Whatever it's true meaning and origins used to be, the current significance (at least to those within the city walls) seems to just be mindless feasting, drinking, and gaudy decor. Most of the traveling group are strangers to each other, only brought together by catching a ride on the same tour/party boat, but the mood is light, quite friendly between them, and perhaps a bit drunk.

While the boat itself is relatively plain wood, it's been strewn with gold and orange banners, flags, shimmery tassels, beads, and bushels of dark green ivy braided with fresh herbs and wildflowers. There are flat round tables of food and drink, plenty of cushions to lounge on, and one random guy perched precariously on the edge railing of the boat, gently strumming a lute for background music..

The elderly ship captain hobbles over to The Adventurer, sternly explaining that, no matter what the 'silly' passengers say, he's only allowed to stay for an hour because he didn't pay for a boat ride ticket, and thus really shouldn't even be allowed on board. By the time The Adventurer has mentally processed this information, the captain has already returned to his little steering room, slamming the door shut with a displeased grunt.. It probably wouldn't be a good idea to confront him or question the rules...... But! Hey, at least he has one hour at the party.. How should he spend his time? "

Additional Information

the adventurer's current main goal: follow his map to reach the abandoned castle ruins and see the rare animal specialist about the mysterious egg he has

#paventure posting #polls #poll #choose your own adventure #LATE AGAIn I know.. I'm still in my weird unproductive spell. literally I've had the same 5 to do list items on my list #for 2 weeks now. I can't even do five simple things in 2 weeks lol. I did start some new supplements and change my diet since #my doctors are still trying to sort out what health issues are going on or etc. so maybe it's something with that #like accidentally on the new diet I'm not getting enough calories or not getting enough of some vitamin or something so it's made me oddly #brain foggy and just really tired and unable to focus well for the past few weeks or something..? ANYWYA. not really sure what #it is specifically but my functioning in terms of actually focusing on and completing tasks has been a lot worse . thus #chronically behind on things. which I am always chronically behind on things in some sense since I always have like 7000 projects #I'm working on at the same exact time and etc. lol. but like.. even more chronically behind than usual .. ToT #ANYWAY.. I'm suprised that the 'try to get a ride on the boat' option didn't get that many votes actually lol #Like.. treveling down a river in a tiny handmade raft is probably.. not extremely safe or efficient lol #But at least he gets to have lunch there. Just the hour that he's on the boat doing whatever will get him a lot further because the boat #is moving faster than his raft would be. It should still get him out of the river and back on track sooner. Because he still has a long way #to go to get to the abandoned castle. I know it's been a lot of days since I'm not keeping up well with actually doing these #daily or every other day - but technically in the story it's only been a little over a day since he left the Inn #The first day he just walked. the second day he saw there was a barrier in his path. then spent half the day building a boat. and now he'e #*he's where he is now. The trip is roughly 4 days and he's like.. a little over halfway through his second. Not counting any detours or #distractions he might run into. But at least at this pace he should be off the river before it starts to get dark #Thate the main thing. you want to get a good rest on solid ground. ideally. So long as nothing strange happens on the boat #but yeah! day 10.. of little elf man adventure... ALSO he is like early 20s I imagine. so he can drink hbhjbjh #I know the 'very quick simple ms paint style' is kind of chibi-ish so it makes people look young but he's not a boy #don't worry. I didnt want it to seem weird like some 10 year old kid walking into a party of drunk 30 year olds #like a toddler hanging out in a night club or whatever. It's safe and okay for him to be there. just for the record. lol #I mean maybe not SAFE safe. it's still a boat of like.. rowdy party goers who could easily fall over the edge into the water or whatever bu #but like.. safe in the sense that he's not a 6 year old being offered vodka by strangers at a party. etc. #despite his goofy nervous demeanor and chronic baby face syndrome he is indeed an actual adult somehow ghbj

I got a medical question and if u got time love your opinion on it. for years I’ve had nausea and something I’ve been able to do to fix it is to not eat in the mornings until 11. (I went to the doctors and nothing was helping/figuring out why but this genuinely took me from getting nauseous everyday to almost once a week. And not just nauseous in mornings if I ate when I first woke up I was more likely to get a stomach even at like 3. Why? Who knows) But recently I started a medication for something entirely different and the meds are an appetite suppressant. I don’t have to take it with food (at first I was on meds that I had to take with food and not only did they not work as well I had to eat a ton of food or id get all loopy). I still have the thing where if I eat before 11 I’ll get a stomachache either right away or later but I keep accidentally skipping my first meal and it’ll be close to 2pm and all I have to eat that day is a couple of apples. It’s been really fucking with me actually because all of a sudden I’ll be starving and kinda useless for a while until I eat and digest some. I’m going to try and just eat smaller meals through out the day. My question is do u have any other recommendations for making sure I eat enough and do u know how much a person is supposed to eat? I’m only asking because for a couple days I was eating around 2 meals per day by accident and then it all hit me at ounce and I had a terrible day that only got better after I ate literally everything in my sight. When I tried to google this all I got was dieting tips lmao

Ok yes I can help here! So first rip I am also dealing with eating nausea and lack of appetite and it sucks.

MEAL REPLACEMENT DRINKS. or any kind of fancy supplement drink. Just anything that's got Something Extra in it. Drinking your calories counts you don't *have* to eat. Even milk will do. I swear by milkshakes if someone is ill and can't keep food down.

Also nibly snacks. Stuff you can keep in your pocket and mindlessly munch on. Cus then its more a habit than intentionally eating.

As for how much you need to eat, thats maths, and maths sucks. 2000 calories should be your absolute minimum if you do fuck all all day like my cripple ass does. I like my new fitbit cus it does the maths for me and then if I like, go out, it tells me how much extra I need to eat. I'm sure there's a way of actually working out how much you need yourself but! Thats maths! So I dont know!

I heard your requests are open?~ If it's not too much and you ehm.. write angst?, how about the RFA reacting to a terrible breakdown of MC? Like, terrible shaking, not responding at all and stuff. I'm sorry, if you're not ok writing something like this

hey anon! thanks for the request! hope your day or night is going well :^) !

Zen:

Zen’s fans have always been sweet and respectful your relationship

But it was the media that loved to cause chaos and spread rumors

The TV was playing in the background as you talked to Saeyoung and Yoosung in the chatroom. You were to called to attention when you heard your name being spoke

“It seemed like she’s gained a lot of weight recently. You’d think someone as fit and handsome as Zen would be conscious of his and his girlfriend’s diet and lifestyle.”

Usually you were able to disregard any talk about your relationship, but as you peered down at your body, you couldn’t stop bad thoughts from making their way into the mind

You thought about restricting your calorie intake, and going to the gym whenever Zen was busy. You just needed to lose weight, before Zen became disgusted with how you looked, too.

You broke down, hating what you saw in yourself.

“MC, I’m home!” Zen called as he took off his coat at the front of the door.

As he began to walk towards the living room, he saw you curled up on the floor, crying to yourself

His heart broke seeing you like this. He sat beside you, removing the hair away from your face.

“MC? What’s wrong baby?”

You tried to speak, but you couldn’t seem to get enough air in your lungs.

Zen put his arm around you, holding you close. He quietly sung to you and stroked your hair. You soon feel asleep in his arms.

Yoosung:

College was a lot more tough than you had expected. The tests, the worksheets, and long written essays. It was beginning to pile up and becoming a burden.

You sat on top of you bed, staring idly at your textbook. You were exhausted and couldn’t get anything done. It felt terrible.

With the growing frustration, you threw your textbooks to the other side of the room and cried into your pillow.

You heard a knock on the door, and Yoosung’s adoring voice,

“Hey MC! Ready for tonight?”

Your breathing hitched and stomach churned. How could you forget?

You were shaking as you opened the door and revealed a nicely dressed Yoosung.

“I’m so so so stupid! I forgot about our anniversary! I’m a terrible girlfriend! Goddamnit!”

You collapsed on your bed once again and looked at Yoosung, crying. You felt guilty. You had been blowing him off for weeks due to the amount of work you needed to do, but you promised this night would be his. Just this one night.

“What are talking about? You’re a wonderful, smart, and beautiful person. I love you so much. Don’t worry about tonight!”

You shook you head, unable to accept how forgiving he was. He was prepping this date for days now, and you ruined it.

“It doesn’t matter, I just wanted to see you…. here,” Yoosung picked up your textbooks from off the floor, “I’m probably worse at this stuff, but two minds are better than one!”

You two spent the rest of the night studying and getting caught up on your school work.

Jaehee:

It had been a terrible day for you.

In fact, it’s been a terrible week.

You came out to your family, and they started ignoring you ever since.

Today was your birthday, yet you did not get a single text or call from your family.

You tried to shake it off as you worked the cafe with Jaehee. You told yourself that they must be busy. Surely, they’ll speak to you later. They were family after all.

Lost in your own thoughts, you accidentally dropped the pot of coffee you were holding.

“MC! Are you okay? What was that?” Jaehee called from the front of the store. She walked in, seeing you frantically whipping up the split coffee, and tears rolling down your cheeks.

“Oh no, did you burn yourself?” She rushed over to your side, and took the towel away from your hands. You shook your head, still looking down at the spilled brown liquid on the floor.

“I-I’m fine,” Looking at Jaehee’s worried expression only caused you to feel worse than before. You covered your face with your hands, body shaking as you cried into them.

Jaehee lifted you up from the ground, “Let’s worry about that later. Just tell me what’s wrong,”

Although it took you a while to explain in your shaken state, she listening immensely to your story about your parents and how they were not supportive of your sexuality.

She rubbed your back soothingly, “Don’t let them ruin your special day. There’s a cake I baked for you waiting in the freezer. I was going to wait till your party later, but now is as good as ever,”

Jumin:

Jumin was always good about protecting you from he news and media.

But he couldn’t help it when they arrived to the restaurant you two were eating at.

Jumin noticed your wary glaces towards there cameramen and reporters, and how you bite your lip like you always did when you got nervous.

He sighed and spoke “I’m no longer hungry, MC. How about you?”

You couldn’t even respond, just meekly nodded along. Anxiety started to build up and settle in the pit of your stomach.

Jumin quickly paid, and helped you up from your seat. He noticed how you shook as you grabbed his hand. He wanted to help you, to shield you away from anything that would make you feel like this.

Outside was chaotic, for it was rare for the media to get coverage of you two together. Jumin’s bodyguards rushed both of you out of the media’s eyes as they shouted comments and questions. You were suffocating.

Your knees grew weak, and you were sudden aware of your own beating hard. 

You could have collapsed right there, if it weren’t for Jumin holding you tightly against his chest. “’Don’t worry, Sweetie. We’re here,”

The bodyguard opened the car door for you both. You never left go of Jumin as you slid inside. 

You cried in his arms, and he kissed the top of your forehead while whispering soothing words into your ear, “You’re safe now, my sweetheart,”

Saeyoung:

You woke up, sweating and unable to catch your breath. Another nightmare. Lately, you’ve haven’t been sleeping much due to nerve-wracking nightmares that carried well after you woke up. 

“S-Saeyoung?” 

you rolled over shook his shoulders. His looked over at you with sleepy eyes and yawned. “What it is, MC?” 

“I’m sorry to wake you, I just don’t want to be alone right now. I’ve… been having bad nightmares,” 

Saeyoung became more alert upon noticing you have been crying by the sound of you voice. He frowned and patted the spotted next to him. “You’re not alone, come here. Tell me what your dreaming about.”

You snuggled in close to him, trying to organize your thoughts together. “I don’t know. Everything? Mint eye, Rika, V… You leaving me or getting hurt,”

You cried harder at the thought of it. You wouldn’t know what to do without him. Saeyoung’s heart broke. Deep down, he still feared the same thing.

He let you cry, wiping your eyes and showering you with kisses at any moment. “That’s silly, MC. I’m not going anywhere. I promise. You know what? I pinky promise!”

ahhh this wasnt too angsty. regardless, i hope you enjoy :^))
