“Out of thin air is right. Sometimes it’s like, where do I get ideas from? Myself? My life? It’s—” Christian broke off to laugh. “—It’s funny, because I used to have these insane ideas naturally, without having to try too hard, and now I feel like I’m not a novelist so much as a professional thinker. I guess that’s not that funny. The funnier part of that is that no one is expecting me to have ideas anymore—I’m writing a series, and I’m on the third book—so by doing something original, each chapter that I work on, it’s like I’m sticking it to some imaginary man that dictates that series should be uniform. I tell that imaginary man to mind his own business when I’m out of ideas. That’s not funny, either, so much as it is sad, but it’s how it is.” The man was not imaginary. The man was his editor. And sometimes the conversations actually happened.

The woman’s description of her professional life was fascinating. There were so many things that she did each day… MRIs, injections, biopsies—the array of tasks was incredible. Christian wondered how hard it had been at the beginning of her career…and if she felt the pride she probably merited for knowing how to do it now.

“How did you learn how to do all of that—the ins and outs of the different images, the right and wrong ways to do a biopsy, even what it was like to work with real patients? Medical school probably does some of that, on a really basic level. But what I mean is—how did you learn to just…trust yourself? Take a step forward, so to speak, when you needed to during your day—say, I know how to do this procedure? It seems like becoming a doctor happens somewhere along the way…and I’m really curious to know when it happened for you.”

Manduguk sounded delicious. Christian instantly resolved to Google it when he got inside the store, so he could add the necessary ingredients to his cart. “Oh, my God, that sounds amazing,” Christian told the woman gratefully. “Thank you so much. I love getting different recipes, different suggestions from people. I really appreciate that.”

Christian grinned when the woman described “pancake sandwiches”. “Yes! Pancake sandwiches sound like the food you’d think about for days after making them, wishing you could eat them again. I’ll have to throw some pancake mix into my cart next time.” At the woman’s question about Christian’s relationship with the grocery store, he just shook his head. “You know, I’ve been heading to the grocery store once a week, every week for the past six years. And I only just started going multiple times a week, because—you’re right—I really, really like it. But I know how it is to, like you say, stretch every ingredient before making a trip here. It can be tough, having a job that doesn’t accommodate errands.” (His mom’s new job as a florist. As one of only a few employees, she was working many hours.)

“And it’s not everyone’s cup of tea.” He’d learned that from Caroline the other week. “I feel like the mood you’re in at certain points of your day is a kind of privilege that we don’t talk about. I’m lucky to come to the grocery store really well-rested, because I’ve been sitting in my writing chair for the previous eight hours. But other people have been on their feet, or even doing physical labor. And they don’t get to enjoy their evening as much because they’re burnt out. Those are some of my best hours.” He paused, rueful. “I wish people got to experience more of life in those lost hours. Feel more themselves. I don’t know.”

At his mention that it was a creative job, but it was one that could come with difficulties, like if there was a creative block she gave a soft nod, "I could understand that, the ability to feel like you are constantly on demand — or I guess in some ways I do understand that, just in a very different form. But all brains need breaks, can't expect them to produce something, literally, out of thin air, at all times." The creative process involved so much when it came to writing a novel, something that she'd find far more stressful than the high demands of a hospital, but they all had their specialties.

"Kind of? Probably most people might associate x-rays but there's a lot of other things I read and do. I read MRI scans, CTs, I give IV injections of contrast, I'm there for anyone who hasn't had one before if they have an allergic reaction to CT contrast, I do biopsies through either ultrasound guided or MRI guided forms, among others, — interventional radiology, but besides that yes, I do interpret medical images." It didn't bother her that not everyone knew what radiologist did because it was a speciality for a reason, not everyone could do it. Some people even thought it was a boring and cheap way out as a doctor, but when she was doing biopsies and attempting to keep those patients relaxed and calm, she knew she did something special.

As the man explained his personal mission, "Don't think anyone is really going to judge you for having a cart full for fruit and veggies, but if you want to add a little twist and are looking to try different cultures soups, I would recommend Manduguk, it's a Korean dumpling soup. You can get veggie filled dumplings but there's pork or chicken filled dumplings you can use. Very delicious, very filling. Highly recommend." At his mention of one day buying a ton of meat, she laughed, "Oh but I love breakfast-for-dinner, I haven't done that in forever. I may have to dig out my waffle iron and make Belgian waffles and oh, oh, pancake sandwiches — you know, the ones where you use pancakes as the bread has a little syrup, sausage, egg, cheese. Ugh, you are expanding my shopping list." Maybe this was why she did need a shopping buddy, to give her more creative ideas then what she was typically buying.

"Sometimes." Furrowing her brows, "It depends on how many hours I've been on call, how tired I am, how far I've stretched every ingredient in my house before I have to come here." she said, "What about you, seems like you've got a pretty good relationship with the grocery store here if you're worried about them judging you over fruits and veggies."

"A friendly reminder?" The vampire repeated with a hiss. "And If I don't? What's a little girl like you going to do about it?"

“ oh, trust me, there's nothing MERE about this girl ---- and this is just a...call it a friendly reminder to clean up your messes. ”

Krystal Loves You | Masterlist

This is a three-part story, and for the point of making navigation easier, all three are here for your convenience, dear reader.

This series is a prequel to the existing work "Puppydog", which you can find right here or alternatively on ao3

If you wish to read on AO3 :)

At a bar, Casey bites off more than she can chew when she allows a peculiar stranger conversation.

1#. "Krystal Loves You"

Casey finds herself returning, despite all realms of logic. She's too lonely to stay away.

2#. "You Love Krystal, Don't You?"

Rock bottom is hit when Casey is mistaken for a prostitute. All illusions of comfort are shattered, but all roads lead to dead ends, and she's crashing anyway.

3#. "Krystal can't Love You (the way I could)"

Raver sebastian!!

[colakills]

i honestly dont think i know what scene music is? is it like, depending on which scene you're interested/involved in?

accoustic is , like, less "processed" but not necessarily less produced? right?

do you have some favorite or go-to artists? :)

Oh, oh, oh!! Scene music is really bouncy, electronic music! My fave is R4v3 B0y by S3RL which is...

^ That one!!

And acoustic technically just means it's made without electronic sounds, so, no synths, no autotune. It's usually a lot more solemn and calm. My fave is probably And I Love Her by Kurt Cobaine. It's a cover of a Beatles song, I think.

Trying to describe Krystal without the word “cunty” is starting to feel like an impossible feat

Anyway she’s been studying magic and helps Celeste w her journey. She’s stuck with a demon that she summoned as a teenager because she wanted a demon bf like in all the anime she watched when she was a young weeb but he turned out to be an annoying shit
