Stars The Same As Ever (Hallmark AU)

18/32 — The Fast Times, The Bright Lights, The Merry Go T+ | Sebastian/Farmer, Sam/Maru Chapter Summary: Sebastian considers the necklace. Maru returns to the market in search of robot parts.

This was a bad idea. I should go find Sam, he tells himself, but he doesn’t. He just stands there, drinking his coffee, caught in indecision—an infinite loop, bouncing between it would be weird and it would make her happy—until a figure rounds the corner and plows into him, sloshing hot coffee out of the cup and onto his hand. He swears. “Sebastian?” she gasps, and he thinks: Hang on, I know that voice. “What are you doing here?” “What do you mean, what am I doing here?” he hisses, shaking coffee off of his hand and whirling to face Maru. “What are you doing here?” “I—” She opens her mouth. Snaps it closed, then crosses her arms. “I asked you first.” “I asked you second,” he responds on instinct, and then cringes—what is he, five?—before deciding to double down. Maru can pull the knowledge that he’s here to buy an engagement necklace from his cold, dead hands. “Weren’t you here with Mom and Demetrius last night?” “Weren’t you?” she asks, raising her eyebrows primly.

sometimes writing isn’t about talent. sometimes it’s about sitting in your chair and suffering for 45 minutes until a single sentence crawls out of your skull

Add another one to the list of hilarious examples of why generative AI doesn't produce correct answers, just statistically likely ones.

(Customers asked for how-to videos, which the company doesn't have. The AI chatbot decided that a million internet users linking to this video after similar requests couldn't be wrong.)

i know we're using "murderbot tv" to distinguish between the show and the books but every time i see it, there's a fraction of a second where my brain parses it as "murderbot (taylor's version)"

if you're writing and find yourself thinking 'this is too weird/gross/offputting/esoteric/ambitious/catered to my specific interests + sure to push away a broader audience' that is the devil speaking and it is a lie. you are already firmly on the right path and you need to double down

i will face my negative feelings. i will permit them to pass over me and through me and into the pages of my fanfiction. and when they have gone past i will turn the inner eye to see their path. and that path will lead directly to my characters. those are your problem to deal with now, buddy! good luck!! ✌️✨

what's a book you read as a teenager that was so magical and personally profound to you it literally changed your life, doesnt matter if the book was actually well written or not. mine's probably the catcher in the rye
