I'm-Not-Going-To-Count-These-Sentences Sunday

Thank you @aroace-genderfluid-sheep and @hushed-chorus for the tags! (Guess what hushed-chorus I did that thing we talked about.) Also thank you to everyone who has tagged me on other WIP-days! I really appreciate it <3

So... I'm not counting sentences this time. I write long sentences, and I make rabid use of sentence-extending punctuation. And I have this thing about posting excerpts that are semi-contained in some way. Plus it's going to take me forever to get this fic posted, so I gotta give ya'll something. THUSLY: Here have a bunch of words.

(I really should have pinned my bi-weekly updates on Wednesday, but OH WELL.)

Context: Baz POV, with Agatha in the chapel after midnight, being 17 year olds. Simon is out of the picture after Baz kinda sorta stole his voice with a tape recorder in fifth year.

“I never thanked you for saving me,” she said, with just a little too much effort at nonchalance. “You did, actually,” I said, not slowing, or sparing her so much as a glance. “You might recall how you resembled a hypothermic beached mermaid? You were quite free with your gratitude once you caught your breath. It was all very melodramatic.” There was a brief pause - possibly an attempt to work out whether my description of her was complimentary or not. Either way, it didn’t deter her. “I never got to thank you the way I wanted to,” she said, a hint of a whine working its way past her shoddily built facade. I didn’t answer right away as I fought down a sudden surge of irritation, one that threatened to trigger my more destructive tendencies - self-destructive, perhaps, but not exclusively so. The only thing worse than being considered a villain was being cast as a tragic hero - someone only misunderstood, just waiting to be saved. “Basil—“ she began, apparently ready to try something else. I stopped short, forcing her to halt both her forward movement and that regrettable demonstration of poor judgment. We were at the entrance to the chapel, now, and it was easy to crowd her against the cold statuary. “How exactly did you want to thank me, then, Wellbelove?”

Later it's entirely likely these two are going to put special effort into trying to forget any of this ever happened, because teenage mistakes are brilliant like that. You're welcome, Bazatha.

Also, super stoked to be working on a couple @caught-on-tape-fest podfics as well as cowriting with @ileadacharmedlife for the @carryon-reverse-bang. Wheeeee I can totally do this all! >.>

Tags/Hellos under the cut! (BTW regarding tags - I'm often unable to browse tumblr, so if you've posted something creative Sunday/Wednesday/for the hell of it, please feel free to tag me so I see it!)

Tomura saying “I’m your villain” and mentioning the mall scene, a scene all the way from back in the story, makes me think that he’s going to start talking about all those moments he was watching Izuku - like he’s going to make more references to things that happened

Looking at the old Sonic Prime concept art makes me think we are for sure getting flavor of the week (or arc) alternate versions of everyone, as Sonic tries to track down all his version of his friends.

I'm sure everyone (TM) has already said this, but Diana must talk about Akko a lot for Diana's minions to talk to her about Diana's decision to leave the school. I mean, they don't even like Akko, at all, and frankly she and Diana don't appear to be particularly close at this point. So that begs the question of just what Diana has said about Akko to her friends for them to think Akko could stand a chance of changing her mind.

(No spoilers please, first time viewer here).

teachers in high school: "how could you be so obsessed with mythology and not enjoy greek myth, it's the core of it all"

me, 22 years old, still trying to find a single description of a woman in greek myth that does not focus on the size of her breasts:

delusional as I am..since he works with them I hope they tell him how loved he is and that people care enough to send donations in norman's name and maybe it brings him some comfort

I really hope so! Well, maybe not comfort, but seeing that Normal who he loved endlessly has made a mark even if he was taken in such unfortunate circumstances and way too early, might ease the pain and make him help make sense of it all. 💛

Anyone done a video of the scene without the song yet?

[numetalpuppygirl]

maybe i've just gone too far into the computer cave but i become more and more convinced over time that posting and whatnot will someday receive artistic recognition and analysis like any other form of creative endeavor

Monkeys now doing THREE shows in Dublin in October as well as one in Belfast AND miles is supporting them, you Irish lot have got lucky here I tell ya

[ayahachitwister]

I need motivation to write, but I actually do best when I have moments to poke in on other stuff without being consumed by it—if that makes sense??

Like I need to give my mind some breaks and separation, but endlessly scrolling for more stuff can hold my attention too much.

SO, all that said, maybe send me asks or something?? I dunno, I just feel like the ask feature of tumblr could be fun x.x’~

I might be able to get the next chapter of ATOYOM out in the next couple hours! 👀

I kind of wish you could have a lodging in the upper river that functioned pretty much the same way as the london lodging, both for game reasons and roleplay reasons. i'm on the board of directors, you're telling me i can't have two (2) active residences?
