ONE / Twenty Five - Poor Bagle

Rather chill.

After I explained to Lucia why it was smelling like weed all over her place, both of us got dressed and went to townsquare to a really nice bagel store to have breakfast. We each took a seat at the bar in front of the big massive window. Lucia pulled out her Laptop and started taking notes. She always does that during breakfast since that is her most efficient time of the day when it comes to writing. While I ordered a classic salmon-cream cheese bagel Lucia had the urge to feel extra fancy and got one with avocado and fried egg on the side. The waitress brought Lucia her caramel latte and a chai latte for me. Lucia was focused on her notes, so we barely talked. It wasn’t strange or anything. Lucky stuff like that doesn't feel weird with Lucia anymore. We kind of passed that level of friendship. I grabbed my phone out of my pocket to check my news and messages. One message from insta and 3 on discord. I was worried. I didn’t see a name or anything. What if all three messages are from Ethan, and how shitty I am that I have not talked to him for a while now. I took a sip of my chai latte while opening instagram. A new follower request? I opened the profile of that other person and struggled to keep the latte in my mouth. Ethan?! Right, I had my socials in my discord information, he must have checked them. 

I browsed through his profile while we got our bagels. I grabbed on half of the freshly made and definitely toasted bagel and started munching on it. I look above my phone while browsing through Ethans insta only to discover that Lucia is devouring her bagel like she hasn’t been eating for a week. Poor bangle. I kept looking and saw many cute photos of him. Some are with friends, others only with him and others are from his job. Damn, he is really good at being a barista. His creations are marvellous. Right as I wanted to leave a follow he uploaded a new story. I instantly look it up. It was him, in the cafe holding a cup of coffee while wearing headphones, staring out the window. It was an awesome photo. The caption read “soon” so I assume this will be a later post for his insta. I surely hope because whoever took that photo was doing a really great job. But, now that my insta mystery was all solved, it was time to check discord. 

One message was from Jesse, and two from Etahn. I’ve decided to make a small and little Ethan break and check what Jesse has been up to. Turns out, not too much. They were just checking if I am fine since we haven’t had writing for like three days. They always do that, thankfully tho. That way they keep my mind at bay. I simply wrote back that I have been at Lucias and that things are working as they should. I was thinking of telling them about Ethan but since it is probably just a silly crush, saying something now would come off strange. At least for me. What if he ghosts me after a few days and I look like the biggest hoe. Nah, I’ll leave it be. I’ll inform them once there is good progress that I can show without worrying it might be over soon. The waitress came over again, apparently Lucia was giving her a hand signal. I checked her plate. All eaten up. I was still holding my first half of the bagel. Either she is really hungry or I am being very slow here. Turns out Lucia is just really hungry, since, well she ordered a 5 Stack pancake, an orange juice and a glass mimosa. I instead just asked for a hot white chocolate with whipped cream. When I tried asking Lucia she just hizzed at me like a wild animal. Yep, she is not hungry, she is also not hangry, she is hurries. I like the word. It’s a mix of hungry and furries and most of the time way more accurate than hangry. 

Anyways, back to Ethan. Here’s what he had to say.        

Discord conversation 

@Fallen_Jam Yesterday at 11.50pm

Anyhow, I hope this wasn’t any strange, sorry again for that kind of first entrance I am not really good with that^^”

@GreenOtter Today at 6.30pm

Oh don’t you worry, it was all good. I’m actually surprised that someone like your friend would pull off a trick like that. I tip my crown, she did well. And hey, it worked. I mean we did write a few lines back and forth, that’s more than what happened without her doing that. I think you can be proud of her. Anyhow I got to get ready for work. Coffee will be served at 8 and I got a long way. I am, however, sorry I messaged you that late. I’m already on the train since I was in a hurry. Kind of a long way from Burgess Hill to Egham but it’s worth the trip.  

@GreenOtter Today at 6.50pm

Oh and if you ever wanna come around, just message me before, so I can schedule my break so we can hang a bit better. Alright, have a good day!

Well that was surprisingly smooth. I did not expect him to understand that. Man, he really is a charm. Wait, hold that thought. Burgess Hill? That’s on my way too? Are you kidding me? Ethan lives not even twenty minutes away from us and met at work? I mean we probably have been on the train together multiple times before. How come I’ve never seen him before. I mean, he kind of sticks out with his pointy fluffy blond hair. And he is pretty. What is wrong with me?

Lucia: What’s on your mind? James: Nothing, just. How long haven’t you been eating haha Lucia: You also eat slowly. Here I left a pancake extra for you. Need help with your bagel? James: Well that’s mine now. And no, I take it with me for the ride to windsor. Lucia: Right, you wanted to go to Jesse’s place. What bus did you want to take? James: I think I will take the one from town square, I’m too tired to walk that much. Lucia: Well, you’ve been gone yesterday eve. Was everything fine? Or did you walk for two hours? James: It was fine, I sat most of the time, I just needed to think, that’s it. Lucia: About Ethan? Did he write anything or? James: He said I should be proud of you for pulling a trick like that. Lucia: OH did he? Well you should. After all, I am a wingwoman.   James: Yeah right? Well remind me, how long have you been single for? Lucia: WHOA that's low. I told you I sold my soul to science. I have no time for a partner. James: But you go out so often. How come you’ve never found someone. Lucia: Okay this might be hard for you but that’s because I just don’t give a damn about people. Sorry not sorry. And sorry to disappoint but as an Aro/Ace person I prefer learning. The parties I go to are more like social studies for me. And who said I’m not allowed to have fun with friends. James: I see. Lucia: I really have no time. I’m trying so hard to achieve the best outcome. I already told you that I do this because of my brother. James: Yeah I know. How’s he? Lucia: Well, he’s keeping up. He’s not well but he didn’t get worse. I try to reach out to him twice a week but sometimes my parents won’t let him. James: Aren't they in the medical field as well? They should have known better. Lucia: They should. Now it’s on me. James: You’ll get it. Waitress: Sorry to interrupt, is everything fine? James: Yeah thanks. I’d like to pay then please. Waitress: Very well. James: Oh and, could you bag this up for me? I want to eat it on the way. Waitress: Sure. I’ll be right back Lucia: James what the hell? James: You paid yesterday, now was my turn. Lucia: Fine.

Lucia and I got dressed while I waited for the bill. The bill was rather high but I haven’t bought that much this month so it’s fine with me. I grabbed the bagel and we left the building. We went straight to the bus stop. Lucia kept waiting with me, before we hugged goodbye once I saw the bus. I got in, grabbed my  phone, grabbed my headphones and hit up spotify. 

In a few I’ll be at Jesse’s.

Walking & Mediation

Walking & Meditation then some. Just when I thought I was back on a roll, Then came along a succession of bad luck. Firstly My planned river walk was a washout, No one joined up due to the rain. I go on a walking and Mediation retreat next month and the intention was to build up some resilience before I got there. I wanted to keep the momentum going and feel fit enough. Walking and Mediation go…

Found this in my Google docs, too! I think I was trying to fit this scene into In The Darkness, but it just wouldn’t work. So I tailored it a little and now imagine it takes place idk somewhere during book 5 before Graulas torched Fablehaven I guess 🤷‍♀️

It’s a mini therapy session between Dale and Vanessa.

——

“Just having a low day?” he asked.

“I messed things up pretty badly.”

He leaned back against one of the porch’s support beams. “You know, if I hadn’t been pinned when you were revealed to be our traitor, I would’ve tried to kill you.”

She bowed her head. “I know.” He would’ve tried to kill her, and she would’ve done whatever it took to protect herself.

Dale looked out across the yard and was silent for a long pause. He glanced at her briefly before he admitted, “I’m glad I was pinned.”

That caught Vanessa’s interest. “Really?”

“Yeah,” he said. His gaze remained focused on some point across the yard; Vanessa couldn’t tell exactly what he was looking at.

“Why?” she asked. “You have plenty of reasons to hate me. Everyone does. I don’t think Ruth will ever trust me again.”

Dale scratched at the scruff on his chin and turned his full attention to her. “I’ve never been particularly good at hating. It takes too much energy, and the days are already tiring enough as is.”

Vanessa didn’t know what to say. She was used to the sideways looks she attracted from what felt like everyone, the conversations which would cease the moment she stepped into a room, sensitive planning meetings which she wasn’t invited to attend.

“You think you’re the only person who’s ever made bad decisions? The only one who regrets their actions? The first person on earth to be duped by someone they’ve admired and trusted? Really?” He shook his head. “Nope.”

“You too?”

“Yes. Not the same circumstances, but yes.” He looked back out across the yard. “All we can do is try again.”

Vanessa turned her attention to a few meandering fairies across the yard as well. “I feel terrible,” she mumbled.

Dale was quiet for a moment, then said, “You should. But don’t stay in that place. Do something about it.”

“How do I redeem myself, though?” she asked. She craved a real answer from him - how could she prove that she had changed?

He began to shrug, but stopped midway and smirked. “Well, we do have a couple of kids with a knack for getting into a lot of trouble. I’m sure something’ll come up eventually. It might be a good move to start there.”

Vanessa leaned her chin onto her knee. “What about the interim?”

“What about teaching the troublemakers some skills?” he suggested.

For what felt like the first time in days, she smiled a little. “I’ll think on that,” she said. “Thank you, Dale. I don’t deserve your kindness.”

“Sure,” he said. “Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to go make sure the new barn door Hugo put in today is functional. The chores never end…”

She laughed under her breath a little as he grumbled while he walked away.

NRB Plays Betrayal at House on the Hill - Part 3/3 Madame Zostra - Linocut Print style Father Rhinehardt - Hellsing's style extra words + art info under the cut!

The concept for this series is I wanted to draw each character in a different style that went with their vibes- ranging from specific artists, to art-making processes, to straight up preexisting IP

"The one of cups. Only dangerous when drawn alongside the two of girls." For the longest time, I wasn't sure what style to do for Mme. Zostra- I wanted to make an old fashioned circus poster, but I couldn't pinpoint a single defined style for those. So instead, I went with a linocut/wood print style which I'm pretty damn happy with. Looking back, I wish I'd given her a beard, cause Laurie mentions that Mme. Zostra worked as a bearded lady before becoming a fortune teller. but I can't be too upset cause linocuts are pretty

"Gut ist der Schlaf. Der Tod ist besser." yes I watched all of the original hellsing as research for this drawing! yes I had a great time and would recommend it! no I haven't watched hellsing ultimate yet! the episodes are very long and it intimidates me! anyway shoutout to tom for basically handing me a predetermined art style so I wouldn't have to pick one- I got to go wild and draw a badass vampire priest man and the hellsing style was pretty easy to work with so its a win all around imo

can you tell that these two are my favorite drawings from this series lol

Smile Confidently with Invisalign: Transforming Smiles at Hurst Dental and Implant Clinic in Hurstpierpoint

In the picturesque village of Hurstpierpoint, nestled amid the rolling hills of West Sussex, lies a haven for dental excellence: Hurst Dental and Implant Clinic. Renowned for its commitment to cutting-edge dental solutions, this esteemed clinic is revolutionizing smiles with the transformative power of Invisalign. Join us as we explore how Invisalign is reshaping smiles and boosting confidence at Hurst Dental and Implant Clinic.

A Modern Approach to Orthodontics

Gone are the days of bulky metal braces. At Hurst Dental and Implant Clinic, patients have access to a discreet and sophisticated orthodontic solution: Invisalign. Unlike traditional braces, which rely on metal brackets and wires, Invisalign utilizes a series of clear, removable aligners to gently guide teeth into their desired position. This innovative approach offers patients the freedom to straighten their teeth discreetly and comfortably, without the hassle of brackets and wires.

Personalized Treatment Plans

One size does not fit all when it comes to orthodontic treatment. That's why the team at Hurst Dental and Implant Clinic takes a personalized approach to Invisalign treatment. Each patient receives a customized treatment plan tailored to address their unique dental needs and aesthetic goals. Whether correcting crowding, closing gaps, or aligning bite issues, the focus remains on achieving optimal results while prioritizing patient comfort and satisfaction.

The Invisalign Experience

The journey to a straighter smile begins with a comprehensive consultation at Hurst Dental and Implant Clinic. During this initial visit, patients have the opportunity to discuss their concerns and goals with a skilled Invisalign provider. Using advanced digital imaging technology, the provider creates a 3D model of the patient's teeth, allowing them to visualize the potential outcome of treatment.

Once the treatment plan is finalized, patients receive a series of custom-made Invisalign aligners. These aligners are worn for approximately 20-22 hours per day, gradually shifting the teeth into alignment. Every few weeks, patients transition to a new set of aligners, bringing them one step closer to their dream smile.

Advantages of Invisalign

Invisalign offers numerous advantages over traditional braces. The clear aligners are virtually invisible when worn, allowing patients to straighten their teeth discreetly. Additionally, the aligners are removable, making it easier to maintain oral hygiene and enjoy favourite foods without restriction. With Invisalign, patients can achieve a straighter, healthier smile without sacrificing comfort or convenience.

A Trusted Provider of Invisalign

Hurst Dental and Implant Clinic is proud to be a trusted provider of Invisalign in Hurstpierpoint and the surrounding areas. Led by a team of experienced dental professionals, the clinic is dedicated to helping patients achieve the smile of their dreams through personalized, high-quality care.
