#scared of everything

I'm scared to have friends, to have romantic partners, to just have someone beside me. I'm scared that they will only leave and abandon me, only leave bruises, scars, and pain. I'm scared that I'll get too close, get too attached to them, being dependent on them, and come off as clingy or weird or whatever. I'm scared that if I open up they will use my flaws against me. I'm scared that they will hate me for being myself, hate me for anything i do and hate me for no reasons. I'm scared to find myself being alone and lonely if they're not here with me, because I'm supposed to be okay with my loneliness. I'm scared, too scared to let someone in. too scared just to even type out a text, give a call, or even start a convo, to reach out for someone. to ask someone to be my friend, to be here for me, to be here with me, to listen to me, to have fun with me, anything they could do with and for me. because I have assumed they will leave as soon as they walk into my life.

I feel this all the way down to my pikachu socks 馃ズ
When I was a little kid, I remember my mum saying to someone that I was shy.
I wasn't shy, I was fucking terrified of everyone, everything and everywhere that wasn't my house.
We didn't have a phone in the house for many years and when I was 13 my dad got a landline installed.
All was fine for a while, I didn't use the phone as I only had one singular friend and she lived just 12 houses away from me. She didn't have a landline phone either. I would just run down the road to her house, knock on the door and ask her mum if Helen was in. So I had no need to use the phone.
Then the calls started. At first it only affected mum. Someone would ring the house phone and just say nothing. She could hear them shuffling their feet in the booth of a payphone.
This was back when anyone could find your number in the phone book. If they knew your name they could get your number and address.
I picked up the phone when it was ringing one time. The man on the phone was breathing hard and said the most vile things. I slammed the phone down and ran to my dad. He typed the 1471 code into the phone, rang the number and after a few rings a lady answered the phone. She told us it was a payphone. The payphone that was situated just around the corner from our house.
This freaked us out. This was the 80s, we didn't have cctv.
Dad changed our number and asked to be X directory. This meant they couldn't get our number from a book anymore.
The trouble stopped, I'm guessing he picked another number from the book and hassled someone else.
Years later, I'm grown up living in my own house, my best friend lives in the same house with me, and we start getting weirdo phone calls. It went on for months.
When we moved I decided to not get a phone at the new place. I went for 7 years with no phone. It was awesome.
Fast forward to the 90s and I still had no land line but my dad wanted to be able to contact me. The rest of the family had mobile phones, my best friend had a landline, I was still refusing to have a phone because of my fears.
He got me a pager. 馃檮 Against my will I had to carry it around so my dad could page me. I would then have to walk to a payphone to ring him. We had a good system, I would ring the house phone and drop the call and he would ring straight back so I didn't have to pay.
Then my brother got a mobile phone and convinced me to get the exact same phone because normally a text cost 12 pence but between these phones it was 5 pence.
This was also back when one network couldn't ring another network so we all got BT phones, which later became O2.
Over the years I've realised that I really don't like talking to strangers on the phone. I even feel anxious trying to make appointments for the Dr.
The worst ones are when I psyche myself up to make an important call only to be met with the automated system. "If you want blah please press 1"
I have maybe 10 minutes of what I call "bravery battery" to use and they waste half of it with their circle pit of despair. When someone finally picks up the call it's like a jump scare and I immediately want to throw up.
Incoming calls are even worse. My heart rate skyrockets as soon as the land line starts ringing. Most times it's Helen, but on the times it isn't my stomach drops and my brain freezes.
I don't think my relationship with phones will ever improve now. I'm fine with texts, emails, msgs through the apps, as they give me time to process the information before requiring action but phone calls are not my favourite thing.
So yeah, Mr Frodo. I feel ya.

dunno about you but I'm terrified of the washing machine, the stove, the oven, the heating thingy
no reason for this post, just some perks of living with generalised anxiety: my heart will burst out of my chest if I hear one whir
maybe I should make a list of more "unreasonable" things I'm afraid of:
when the neighbours make any sounds, I think in my head that I did something wrong (like being too loud) and they're being loud of purpose because they're mad
when the door ring starts going even though we're not expecting anyone, gosh I feel like an animal in the wild and I go tiptoeing to hide in the bedroom
when we're about to leave the house and I have to check the oven ~four times to make sure! it's off, I do a little funny thing with my fingers: so there are five buttons, and I use one finger for one button back and forth like a dance, four times in total (two forwards, two backwards), but it only needs to touch my fingertips because if I mess up I have to start again. more often than not I make my girlfriend check as well because I can't trust myself
when I hear the electricity at night and I'm afraid we'll die in our sleep from something going boom
when we turn on the gas thingy for the heating and I have to stand next to it for at least a few minutes to ensure the sound is smooth which can then put my mind at ease that we won't explode and die, only then I can go back to the bedroom
I have to go watch the washing machine every few minutes to make sure it won't go moving which could cause a water leak while it's still running which means I could die from being electrocu-, gahhh this is so stupid
I KNOW none of these will happen, what are the odds... but I'm constantly afraid. I've been living away from my parents house for six years now, you'd think I'd be used to handling everything by now
honestly if my girlfriend wasn't around to help, comfort, and reassure me I'd go totally insane

underrated thing I enjoy is when a tv show needs to have a rat in a scene, and it鈥檚 supposed to be like. a wild nasty ass scary rat, but obviously they鈥檙e using someone鈥檚 beautiful chubby clean trained pet rat. occasionally it looks like they put some coconut oil or something on its fur to make it look grubby. just a little something for me.

Tl;Dr - I stopped playing the game but I like the characters and I wanna draw them but idk if the wiki I use is up to date for cards
Do u know any wikis that have up to date cards for all the twst characters-
Asking specifically bc of Malleus cause I can't tell anymore if he has any more new cards bc HE DOESN'T EVEN HAVE A 100 DISNEY ANIVERSARY CARD IN THE WIKI I USE 馃槶
Like compared to everyone else in Disanomia, he has 12 cards (in the wiki I use) and then Lilia has 17 cards 馃拃
Cause I think Malleus has a Bean's Day card as well, but that could just be a fanmade one, I don't have JP twst nor ENG twst anymore so I can't confirm it myself urhghrhevw 馃珷
Malleus doesn't have a Beans Day card, so that would've been fanmade! and the 100 anniversary cards are actually the new round of birthday cards, so most of the characters don't have 'em yet -- Malleus should be getting his in a couple of days, when his birthday event starts! oh god my keeeeeys
I think the wiki.gg stays pretty up to date? it looks to me like they have everything that's currently up through JP, at least. :O I did go through and do a quick count just because I couldn't believe Malleus only had 12 cards, but. he really does have the least...defeated only by Silver with 13...astonishing. we need his gargoyle club wear immediately.
