Free me from this prison cell (sick)

#my nose is flowing more than the tears of god #i have gone through two rolls of tissue paper today just blowing my nose #and I'm halfway through the third #help #tw tmi #i guess #also being this sick is probably not having a good effect on my mental #im only 60% convicned thag today is still saturday #part of me (35%) is worried that it is sunday and that somehow i have skipped everything in a sickness induced unconsciousness #another 4% of me thinks its still friday and that the passage of time is fake #the remaining 1% thinks its monday already #im pretty sure those percentages add up to 100%#if not #oh well #i cant math when im sick

watching the first 2 episodes of frieren last year shook me so bad i still can't get myself to continue it, but between what i remember of it and the nightmares episode of dungeon meshi i can't stop thinking about the ways laios would prepare marcille for his death. what would he leave behind to remind her that he (and by extension all the people she loved and who loved her) are still with her in spirit, even if not in body?

#dungeon meshi #laios touden #marcille donato #i'm a laios & marcille are a secret third thing that can't be defined by language truther but make of this what you will i guess lol #if falin does turn out to have an extended life span due to dungeon shenanigans laios would rest easier but he'd def still worry #dungeon meshi spoilers #she might come across the regenerated kensuke at some point but that one was an accident 😅#i still think he'd train some dogs to accompany her #maybe make a promise w one of the castle staff & their family to keep training dogs through generations so there'll always be a rag for her #would he leave annotations in her magic tomes for her to find years down the road?#oh and he'd rope everyone else in definitely #he'd ask everyone in the party and maybe even kabru et al. & toshiro et al. for good measure #oh and what i meant by frieren shaking me was w each ep i found myself sobbing uncontrollably halfway through #i loved it but it was A Lot for me emotionally #i do remember seeing a post about how one of the reasons himmel had no problem having statues of him made #was bc he was doing it partly in the hope that when frieren sees one she'll remember him & their adventures together #that their time together wasn't just a blip in her life #he may physically be gone but his memory lives on #that really resonated with me #calemonsito notes

Mythological parallels.

#moominvalley #moomin #moomins #lightbulb moment #moominpappa #young moominpappa #adventures of moominpappa #narcissus #I just had this realization while writing my essay and it's especially mind-blowing when you realize MP is pretty NPD-coded #and I don't mean that he's just very egotistical and I'm not saying he's a bad person I mean that genuinely he might have the disorder #in like... a normal person who just has it kinda way. and it's fascinating #also update on my essay; it's now 6k words long and I'm halfway through chapter 1 in the adaptation review #when part 1 is based on the prologue through the first third of ch. 3. so strap in boys (gn) it's gonna be a loooooong one

one thing I've learned through being in this Milton course is that I really, really don't like feeling stupid. and that I will inevitably feel really stupid and out of my depth in a class full of honours students and one girl I know doesn't think very much of me, who can quote Keats and Blake and Shelley at the drop of a hat and very eloquently bring up sociologists and philosophers and a bajillion other smart sounding, insightful things in class discussion, while we're studying poetry I a) only half-care about and b) don't half-understand

#we were halfway through class today and i was like take me home i want to go HOOOOME #y'all................ what a day. and i'm only a third through the lectures i need to be in. like what the heckkkk i want to be not here #im usually mostly immune to the comparison game because i forced myself to be that way in high school but MAN #this class makes it very difficult to not feel like i'm constantly floundering and playing catch up #and as someone who is a slow reader and thinker and is not very articulate it sometimes makes me not want to talk in class

me, whilst reading the unbroken & the faithless: oh, touraine, you idiot (fondly).

#halfway through faithless rn. but when i tell you i consumed the unbroken in a day i'm not lying (saturday)#and i forced myself to only spend half a day reading faithless (sunday) which is why it's only half done #but good lordt it's so fucking GOOD #and i ship them so hard dammit #some good shit right here yall #i've been reading a LOT this year (actual books. i actually havent read any fic this year. it's weird)#and yeah. the jasmine throne / oleander sword & the unbroken / the faithless. just fucking another level of exactly what i want #now just give me those third books dammit!!#duck reads #i think that was the tag #to be clear: i totally understand WHY touraine does the things she does. completely justified. but oh darling.#she's perfect actually. you know? in the context of everything. just the perfect way to understand #(but also so is luca in her own way)#my two fuck ups just trying to do their best damnit #gods it's GORGEOUS and ANGSTY in the most beautiful of ways

chapter 1 + chapter 2... halfway to 60k

#a little over halfway really #I'd begun to worry about my progress but when I put it this way I feel pretty proud of myself #the crazy part... is that I'm still not even close to done.... ahahaha #okay. chapter one is pretty much done #I've edited all the major portions I wanted to change #just a small editing session and she'll be ready to post #as for the second chapter #I'm about a third of the way through with editing the smut #after the halfway point the word count will start exploding because there's a ridiculous amount of editing I have to do #what I have written so far for the second part is more of an outline than anything else #and then of course there's the whole ending portion #I think over 60k in total word count is 100% happening #70k next? haha... ahaha..... ha..........#laughing through the pain #(I wake up from a deep coma after producing 70 thousand words of aki sex) where....... where... am I.......#let's reach the editing halfway point by the end of this week!! I can do it!!!!

Can you glare sternly at your own brain? I do not have time to write a novel length Morrowind fanfiction that rewrites The Dead Are Faithful and adds a shitload of OCs who burst forth from my skull fully-formed during a shower last night.

#I've spent a year and a half on my novel #and I'm halfway through the third draft #and I have a bunch of other projects #maybe fanfic is steam escaping from the kettle idk #I'LL THINK ABOUT IT but no promises that it gets written

me: hector is part of a small percentage of garleans that have psionic powers to compensate for their inability to manipulate aether, but it weakens greatly with age and causes immense mental strain

also me: *falls into a deep rabbit hole of paranormal pseudoscience and marvel/dc comic power scaling wackiness in an attempt to explain why and how that is in the ffxiv universe, but suspension of disbelief is thrown out the window*

#cid.txt #rambling thoughts incoming #since se is pretty much done with garlemald: my city now #i can't do things halfway. i have to explain my work or else my brain will grow mold #is it biological? esoteric? environmental? who knows #leave it to me to make things more complicated than it needs to be :p #but there has to be more to their third eye beyond having better spatial awareness for weaponry #there has to be an advantage that others who can use aether do not have #i'm most likely not the first person to think of this concept but i enjoy tinkering with it #and as a sidenote i kinda wanna make yves a pisonic too because the more i remold him the more i move away from his mhach/supernatural root #his new outfit greatly inspired my current situation #he's already tall like a garlean and his full name is latin so he'll fit right in #and since he and hector are similar people i wanna revisit their early concepts of where they were friends—kirke included #i can't not see these 3 as the terror trio no matter how hard i tried to separate them through each rewrite #i'll have to make a meta writeup soon #signalis mgs and outlast have been templates for this concept #so let's see what I can cook up

For the most part I really believe that you shouldn't judge people on the subjects they write because it really is human nature to want to explore dark subjects through fiction. But genuinely, the Human Centipede guy has something wrong with him.

#ignore the first movie. go read the plot of the second and third one on wikipedia.#i was reading the plot to them as a bit for my boyfriend who had never heard of the series #and halfway through the summary for the second one i was like. this isn't funny anymore.#and then you read the summary for the third one and you’re like. no something is genuinely wrong with this man.#and i'm not saying he wants to human centipede anyone! but there is something really wrong with him #oscar talks to himself

oh shit i forgot to send a new one! brain mush.

uh. let's say 75 please?

No worries, thanks for sending these, they're really nice!!! More Holograms (and the introduction of I think the last major character...)

Julie laughed and followed her brother in, Reggie and Alex on her heels. Fuego was standing beside the receptionist’s desk. He looked up and smiled when he heard them approach. “Ah good, I’ll let Mr. Covington know you’re here.” He turned away from them, pink nails clicking against his tablet. Julie was about to ask about the agenda for the day when she heard a crash behind her. She whirled around to see Alex lying on the floor, someone else practically on top of him, clearly having just bowled him over. “Oh my gosh, I am so sorry,” the new person exclaimed, scrambling to their feet and holding out a hand to Alex. “I wasn’t even looking.”

(Send me a number and I'll write that many words in my WIP and show you!)

#legolas tag #julie and the phantoms #legolas ask #jatp jem and the holograms au #HAH I have been trying to get Willie actually in here for like... 3 chapters now?#but the characters haven't been cooperating #I honestly didn't mean for him to show up here but like...#it works.#and it's kinda cute if I do say so myself :D #And I think that's probably the end of chapter 6!#The urge to post chapter 1 just for curiosity's sake is growing :(((#but that would require editing which I don't really have time to do #Idk #maybe we shall see #I think technically speaking I'm like a little under halfway through the movie in terms of plot points #but there's a lot of character stuff that the movie just kinda glosses over cause of run time #that I wanna lean into more #so realistically I'm like... maybe a third of the way through?#or less?#and I don't wanna disappoint people if it takes me a long time to get the rest out if they start it now #I MEAN IT HAS TAKEN ME OVER A YEAR JUST TO GET THIS MUCH DONE!#The document is like....60 pages including notes?#ack okay just remembered this is an ask game and literally no one cares about my time log crisis lol so I'll shush XD

#pivoting entirely into weird cool medium-long oneshots now #I'm maybe a third to halfway through prep for an original novel so my fic is gonna be SUPER specific and indulgent #this is going to be a knives out fusion modern au probably. in the mood for pseudo casefic
