Pea Brained Bounce House time. Was thinking about the earlier Mikey bit. Then I started thinking about Warm Coded. And then:
Raph’s got like. This thing, when you’re working out with him. He uses the cover of coaching you to stare.
It’s not until he’s got you doing chairs against the concrete wall, and you look up in pleading askance on how much longer you’ve gotta hold the position, that you finally catch the way his attention is trained on the swell of your stomach. The uncanny focus of his gaze on your thighs as the muscles start to tremble and seize up.
Raph likes to stare.

Sweet potato sesame balls! Second time making these, bastardized off of this recipe:
https://jasmineandtea.com/sweet-potato-sesame-balls/
One smedium sweet potato. Sugar to taste, I used probs a cup. Glutinous rice flour until it makes a dough that doesn't stick too much. I started with 1 cup and added probably another whole cup in. One 16 oz bag of it was almost enough for two sweet potatos/batches, this time I was a bit short and it was a tad sticky in my hands but still cooked just the same. I couldn't mf find red bean paste so left that out sadly.
Baked the potatoes ar 425F for 1 hr 15 mins, let it cool a bit then peeled it. Threw that mf in with the sugar and glutinous rice flour and mashed it all together until it made more sense to use my hands and knead the dough until smooth. Make lil balls. Roll em in sesame seeds. Gently lower them into some oil in batches of 3-5 until they float up and then brown a bit. Yoink em and hashashashah eating them too hot!
I yielded 33 balls this time, didn't count the first time bc i was too busy shoving them in my face

He tries to sing a little quieter in his drivers room
Niamh, respectfully, wtf. Shut UP
no but george finding valtteri in his room and he’s like. the fuck are you doing here. and valtteri has to tell this fucking british twink cow eyed lesbian that he misses lewis’s singing 😔😔🤧🤧 and george !! george god bless him believes in true love !! he was raised right so what else can he do but help him !! so he starts sneaking val into the merc motorhome so val can sit in george’s driver room and listen to lewis sing next door bc that is the only logical solution to their problem
(smt smth lewis ends up catching them n he’s like. val !! wait….val?? oh….val 🥺🥺 bc he thinks they’re sleeping together but val n george are too busy freaking out that they got caught to realise what lewis is thinking n shit spirals. lewis stops singing. val is miserable. george just wants his room back. smth smth)

Fushimi discovering the sense of ease of using weighed blankets, even if he doesn't sleep much he can just lie in bed feeling just little bit calmer because of them. One day he wakes up to get coffee but he's still half asleep and takes his blanket with him, maybe its like his rare day off so he's woken up late and the squad just get to see him drowsily waddle around to get some canned coffee while wrapped up in his blanket and having it over his head like a hood.
Fushimi looking so cute and comfy with his blanket around his head. I could see Fushimi enjoying a good weighted blanket, like maybe Munakata gifts him one because Fushimi looks perpetually sleep-deprived and Munakata has heard such things can be good for relaxation. Fushimi’s initially not interested, it feels too heavy and it’s probably sweltering underneath and besides he doesn’t trust gifts from Captain (at least it wasn’t a puzzle of his face this time). One evening it’s fairly cold though and Fushimi doesn’t want to walk all the way down the hall and out of the dorms to request an extra blanket so he just gives in and grabs the weighted blanket. It turns out to be really comfy and just relaxing, like having that weight on him doesn’t feel crushing the way he thought it would, it’s more of a calming safe feeling. After that he uses the blanket fairly often, sometimes it’s nice even to just lie there with the blanket over him even when he can’t sleep. He probably stays up late some nights on his computer with the blanket over his head and when he does finally go to sleep he just drags it along still draped over him.
One morning he’s finally gotten a day off after like a week of overwork and he’s still drowsy even when he gets up. Fushimi dimly thinks he should at least get some coffee and he just slides out of bed, it’s a little cold out and he doesn’t even think much about it as he wraps his blanket around him. Maybe there was a power outage the night before too (the only reason Fushimi got to bed reasonably on time), he doesn’t realize the clock on his desk is wrong and hasn’t even bothered to check his PDA so Fushimi assumes it’s early and no one else will be up yet. The squad however are all awake and finishing breakfast when this sentient blanket comes waddling into the kitchen, Doumyouji immediately jumps back like it’s a monster. The ‘monster’ gives a quiet sleepy tongue click and everyone realizes that this is Fushimi wrapped in a comfy blanket here to get the coffee that will wake him up and make him realize that they all saw him this way and then he’ll kill them all. Akiyama quietly swaps out the coffee with decaf and they all stand to the side as Fushimi gets his coffee, downs it in one gulp and then waddles back to his room to go back to bed. The squad are all holding their breath until his door closes and they all agree not to mention that they saw anything (but also Fushimi-san looked very cute in his little blanket and someone should have taken a picture).

it's odd bc i didn't want to do this phd at all, much less move down here for any amount of time, but couple years in i really have become so fond of this weird little valley life i lead now. it's Very flawed (wasps in my walls) and Very inconvenient (unreliable public transport; no car) but i love my flat, i love the mountains, i love that i live comically far away from all my coworkers-turned-friends so they come round to my house as a Sunday Outing, i love the lumpy air mattress that my faraway friends come to sleep on and i love that i always have stupid fizzy drinks (most prominently featuring lemon, mint and ginger) in the fridge when i'm here even though i never used to drink anything other than tap water. anyway here's pics from yesterday evening when i realised i could just go swimming in the mountains alone bc secret waterfalls exist here and i know where they are

it’s all fun and games having clear framed glasses until you put them down somewhere and they fade into the aether
