cranky wizard girl!

the Dungeon Meshi gathering (full name "Dungeon Meshi and other fantasy/food anime," an excellent venn diagram) was the perfect motivator to speed-build Rin's dress and capelet in three weeks without getting in my own head about striving for an uttainable "perfect" state.

i patterned the dress on the fly and it came together very satisfyingly (even with the red lining entirely pieced together from a bundle of scraps), and i didn't have enough continuous fabric to make the capelet ...but i certainly had various swatches, scraps, and cuts of four different fabrics, so that ALSO became a patchwork project!

texturrrreeeeee

Eagle's descent

Logan treated every race as if it were his last. He had put everything the car could give him and raced until the word was in flames. Maybe he was waiting for people to praise his improvement or for people to cheer for him. Who was he kidding? Logan was no one important.

It was clear his team despised him and had already expressed a desire for Carlos to succeed him.

'BREAKING: Carlos Sainz will join the team for ‘25, ‘26 and beyond 🤩​'

It was no surprise that Logan's dream would end. He spent his childhood and teens chasing something that was always out of reach. If Logan gave up racing, he would be living the American life: partying out all night, eating whatever he wished, and everything he has ever wished for. If Logan had given up racing, would he be as miserable as he is now?

Seeing the words on the blinding screen only ate at Logan's heart. Oh, how it wished it could tear away from his ribcage and shatter the glass sky. A dream waited for him, yet he couldn't chase it.

"Trust yourself. You have survived a lot, and you will survive whatever is coming," they would always say. Logan knew better. He knew better than to trust words that brought him comfort and peace.

Every step in the paddock could be his last. This could be his last race, his last time putting on his helmet, his last time stepping into the car, his last time feeding off adrenaline, his last step into Williams. It could also be the last time Logan would ever feel the weight on his shoulders, crushing him.

"You tried your best, Logan. There's no shame in it." Really? Do they think that it really is Logan's best? Do they think that he can't do any better? Flames ate away at his heart—like a bonfire—burning away whatever he had left of Williams. It wasn't fair; it never was. What is Logan expected to do now? Trudge around mindlessly without a purpose of where to go or lead?

"You're one of the top 20 best drivers in the world; you have a reason to be here, to have a seat."

Maybe if Logan had more time, he could bring the junk of metal onto the podium—basking in the glory of sweet champagne as it went into his eyes. Logan would be too busy grinning to bother of the champagne stinging as it brought tears. He would party in bars, wasting away with alcohol just like he should be in his teenage years. Logan would wake up next week with a headache as his team and friends laughed at his antics. He would rock back and forth on his heels as he waited for the next race. Logan would play padel with Alex and Oscar and so many of his friends, his hair would be entirely coated with sweat. He would win a championship.

It was all just a dream—a dream that waited for none. If you were fast enough, perhaps you would be able to chase the dream that was out of reach. A Williams? Never in a million years would it be fast enough to give Logan a taste of glory—a taste of the world hearing his national anthem as he stood with hands behind his back, baring his teeth towards the sky, the American flag wrapped around his shoulders like an embrace.

Logan wished he could scream at the top of his lungs how no one knew him truly. Or how he was the American who won a WDC, the American who won his first race in F1.

"I'll try and make my way to Formula 1." A child with a mind full of dreams had uttered such words. Logan had done so well in Formula 2. What changed?

Logan could only hope that the taste of adrenaline would suffice for the races that still wanted him. The champagne won't taste any sweeter, nor will the trophies and medals shine any brighter for anyone.

He thought he could still finish the race. Leave with a proper goodbye and be satisfied with ending the season. But of course Williams had to crush every single dream Logan ever had. He was to be replaced by Franco for the rest of the season, only for Carlos to take over next year. It was by no means Carlos' and Franco's fault but Williams'.

'36 races in Williams blue 💙'

Even the official F1 Instagram account gave him a better goodbye and treated him better than Williams ever did for the 36 races. Logan could have improved if he was given more time in F2 and more time to complete his last season and race in Abu Dhabi. Everything ended in the Dutch GP.

No one knew this was coming, yet everyone knew. But Logan never knew it would ever come so soon. He was glad for Franco, but couldn't he bask in the remaining time he had left? As much as Logan wanted to lash out at James, Logan knew he had no choice but to drop him. He cost the whole team thousands of dollars, or more, in repairs for his car because of his crashes. They were already hanging off a thread of string, and Logan couldn't be the one to pull them down.

Logan would never feel the scorching sun of Monza, the sights of Baku, the night sky of Singapore, the last glory of his home races in Austin and Las Vegas, the adrenaline pumping in every turn in Mexico City, the shouts and screams of Sau Paulo, the nightlife of Las Vegas, lights illuminating Lusail. Nor would he feel the feeling of contentment in Abu Dhabi.

His passports just added on to his list of reasons for stopping everything right there and then. All the stamps of the different countries he had been to served as a reminder of all the times he had raced against his friends and co-workers. Mostly co-workers

The eagle spread its wings no longer, lying down on a patch of grass in a foreign country as it rested, no longer going on its exhilarating adventures around the world.

hi there!! here's a silly little pinned post, just for you ;)

only time will tell how active this blog will be, but i wanted a place to spam danger days content and share my random thoughts i have!!

the tags on this post are to help you navigate my posts! like shortcuts, so you don't have to try and search it yourself with tumblrs shit search function or find something i posted tagged with it to use that shortcut (also the "funnies" tag is for posts that aren't about danger days but i've found a way to make them apply)

the blog owner (me!) is a fun ghoul fictive :) to put it simply, that means i'm a little guy who lives in someone else's head and i recognize the character of fun ghoul as me! and unrelated to that but just more info about me: my pronouns are he/they, i'm nonbinary, and i'm autistic!

i have no written dni, i'll just block you if you're mean or weird

I love this ignorant flearther meme because it really shows the main mental failure of flat earthers, how they can't comprehend the size of the Earth.

Notice how they added a velocity blur to the Earth pic because they can't wrap their mind around the concept that Earth's surface can have a linear velocity of thousands of kh/h but have an angular velocity (which is what makes you feel the centrifugal force in the first 2 pics) of just 1 rotation per 24 hours.

If a playground roundabout spun at 1 rotation per 24 hours you'd barely notice it either.

If a playground roundabout had the linear velocity of Earth's surface it would have to spin roughly 265,789 times per second, which is 10 times faster than the fastest centrifuges we ever built.

sigh missed my words yesterday bc i slept all day, woke up around 8 pm feeling terrible, tried to get my words in and simply could not do it. i went back to bed around 2 am and then slept until 11 am today and again woke up feeling awful. i think it's bc my period is coming bc i always flare up near my period and i'm also very moody (cried over stupid shit today, like so stupid and insignificant i can't even remember what it was). however i did an extra 1k monday to get up to 60k total (just got impatient about hitting that milestone) so if i do an extra 1k today it'll be like it never happened
