But it’s kinda hard to explain.

y'all it is 5:10am, but stay with me for a second, okay?
apologies and bear with me for being embarrassing and effusive and gushy on main yet fucking again (i cannot be helped!) but I had just the most utterly garbage day connected to a particulary shitty week [insert "lemon, it's wednesday" gif here] and I was just feeling very out of sorts for a myriad of personal reasons and decided to read (and subsequently reread) a fic by the lovely @myheartalivewrites called Paper Chains.
I had been saving this specific fic for a day I was feeling low and needed some real pining longing yearning slow burn (yeehaw!). That day arrived. Here I am.
When I tell you...my ass has been thinking about this fic on loop. I need all 25k words tattooed behind my eyelids. I reread it about half an hour ago with ugly anime-worthy tears streaming down my face. I felt a bruise and crack very deep in my heart start to heal over. I cannot tell you why, for I do not understand it myself. All I know is that when I started reading, my chest hurt in the worst way possible, and now it hurts in the best way possible. So now I'm the town crier, here to tell you to go read it if you haven't. And if you have, go reread it.
Everyone go read Paper Chains right the fuck now. Go!!! And then report back to me for screaming purposes. I'll be here. 💛
p.s. the fic also features and links some truly wonderful art by @lizzie-bennetdarcy (that you can find here and here, for starters...I won't spoil the fic one!!). A delightful addition to the experience. Big fan of your work always!! ❤️❤️❤️
I will always be in awe of artists and writers and creators—you pour SO MUCH of yourselves, hearts and souls and all, into your work. When I consume it, my cup fills yet again. Thank you! A privilege, as always.

Christmas Trees
The first Christmas trees I knew were cedar and chopped down in the woods near our house. When I was five Mama and I made paper chains to circle our tree and she cut stars out of cardboard that we covered them with aluminum foil. I didn’t know it was because she couldn’t afford to buy ornaments. Those foil colored stars remained among our treasured decorations even in the years when we had shiny…

WELCOME HOME SPOILERS
WALLY IN HIS BETA OUTFIT IN THE EGGNOG COMMERCIAL?!?
Is his beta outfit now just another one of his alternate outfits, or does it actually mean something? (*cough*Imadeadog*cough*)
I know there were some pictures of Wally in his beta outfit in the site’s artwork carousel. But to my knowledge, Clown drew those pictures before he redesigned Wally and gave him his current outfit with the blue cardigan and striped pants, which I believe occurred sometime in early 2022, as these pictures had also been posted on his social media before then.
…And if that’s the case, this is the only instance post- Wally’s redesign where he is specifically depicted wearing the same outfit worn by his beta counterpart.
Maybe Wally is going to end up being more like his past self than we may have originally expected…

I'm not including a situation where someone might be injured because in that case I'm thinking the bed goes to them by default or they are nominated for it. anyone who wants to be chatty goes to join the living room floor gang.
What are your thoughts and headcanons? Do you have thoughts on how the boys tend to approach assigning beds in inns? Who do the chain choose to sleep near when camping and why? What are their dynamics like when settling down for the night and getting ready for the day?
In "Mirror Vs Open Closet Door: Fight!" by Gintrinsic (here) Four refers to the chain's decision on how to split up between inn rooms as the "Link-per-room ratio" which I find very funny. He, Sky, and Time also talk about their thought process behind why they do or don't want to sleep in a room with some of the others which I find fun and interesting.
So! If you have thoughts and want to share them! *gestures to the post!*
