as i've gotten three different choscar kiss prompts (are yall. ok?), and idk when I'll get to them, i figured i could split the difference by sharing some of my choscar wip. is that a fair exchange? choscar anons pls love me premise is: charles as the "childhood best friend's older brother". oscar as the long-term down-bad idiot. charles is now -- surprise! -- oscar's boss at his new job.

Mr. To You

Is he allowed to use his phone? How often is too often to get up and wander towards the café? Is it weird to explore the floor a bit? Maybe introduce himself to his new coworkers?

He looks over at Max – sat in a different row, the middle desk – and notes the distinct lack of cell on his desk. That probably settles at least one question, doesn't it? Movement from the corner of his eye catches his attention; he shifts to take a not-so-subtle look, face freezing between two expressions: shock and abject terror.

Walking down their half of the hallway, waving good morning to a man that Oscar can't see, is a ghost from Oscar's past.

Or rather, a ghost from his entire childhood, teenagehood, and adolescence.

His shoes, light brown Italian leather, perfectly elegant and perfectly on trend, tap against the short-pile carpet as he draws closer – flashing another smile towards Max, whose shoulders visibly tense from behind.

Oscar feels the hairs on the back of his neck prickle, red-hot heat rushing under his skin like he's been doused in boiling water. Time seems to move in slow motion as he takes another step closer, as his hand – adorned with an oversized watch that should look horrendously gaudy, but rather highlights the span of his palm – moves to undo the button of his navy blazer.

And his chin turns, pink lips parted to flash yet another smile.

At him.

Charles Leclerc, the object of his hormone-fueled fixations since before he even had hormones to blame, looks at him – brilliant green eyes catching his with ease, dimple starting to show as he mouths 'good mor–'

Before he can finish, Oscar bolts; he scrambles to his feet and dashes towards the glass door a few steps behind him.

He's moving before he even realizes it, storming out onto the small balcony and stumbling over the wrought-iron seating set. He nearly falls flat on his face, which – at this point – may have been a mercy. Maybe if he punches in his nose and knocks out his teeth, Charles Leclerc won't even remember who he is – maybe he'll get to go home and quit over the phone, and no one would ever need to know.

The beating sun feels like ice compared to the blood pressing up against his skin, painting him a frantic, alarming shade of pink.

Not even taking a moment to calm his racing heart, Oscar pulls out his phone.

Oscar Piastri

i feel very frustrated about the trend of giving chil body hair bc if it was any other anime twink i would be thrilled its just that it seems to only be because people are SO afraid of him looking young they have to make him hairy to justify liking him in ships.

meanwhile it does directly go against canon (he literally is supposed to look like a child. this is integral to both his character and his race's lore as a whole and it makes no damn sense that he would be mistaken for a child if he has body hair i mean. cmon.)

and it's like. some men are hairless. some men look young. when youre a trans man in your 20s-30s its especially common to be mistaken for a teenager, even more so if you're not on t. and short. these traits do not make you less of a man or an adult. :/

#rot posts #listen its like. i just wish ppl werent doing it for the reasons they seem to be #you NEVER see tiny little men get body hair in fanart i should know ive been in multiple fandoms where i was the only 1 givin bitches hair #but it also sucks when its like. clearly from a place of discomfort and not wanting him to seem young #rather than actually loving body hair #for example where is laios with body hair. wheres kabru. mithrun. literally any other character #(senshi us a slight exception on account of semi canonically having hair)#it just feels like a performance for no one. ok yeah good job you made chil look like a hairy 30 year old #did you pay attention to how that totally disregards his story and how he canonically looks like a child and that IS an important aspect #half foots face infantilism to an extreme and his appearance is a part of this. the discrimination he faces is partially BECAUSE of looks!#so changing him to erase such a HUGE important aspect of his race's lore just bc ppl seem uncomfortable with him being young looking feels #idk the feeling. its frustrating to me #i just wish there was some self reflection here. i guess. some actual acknowledgement of his canon struggles #do you even like chil if you cant accept one of his core canonical traits...#whew anyways this is HUGELY a limited edition post bc im deleting it as soon as my husband reads it ❤️#i hate drama i hate discourse so like always if you try to start shit i will ignore + block you soo fast dont try me

something invokes the carnal rage in me when a grown man rages like a two-year old over a video game

#it makes me think of the mothers trying to act like theyre defusing an already blown up bomb and it's literally just #idk #it just gives me the ick im srry the moment i hear one 'me' entitled statement and it's not like #clearly burnt out 'i kinda know im being ironic' ventong #venting LMAO #and just genuine sorrow for urself #over a Digital Game #i just cant srry #maybe it's my youngest to an older brother who everyone gets the ages flipped around Not just from looks but actual Acting #syndrome #and of course context plays a part too like if u have a stressful af job and just wanted to rewind? understandable. id be pissed too #but mfers who just Sit there and continue to stink the whole room up is like. ok. get some air or smthin #i do Not fuck around with throwing or damaging expensive shit ESPECIALLY if u did not pay for it #idk im naturally good at video games i think only bcs i only had access to old one that were way above my age audience #so i had to develop a sense of patterning not just to have competition but to just play the game at all #but still i have gotten frustrated at games bcs everyone gets frustrated at smthing #but usually now. at my grown age. (even tho i Rarely ever game anymore bcs i cant rlly so anything not active in my mind #bcs of Guilt and Constant Dread of Judgement)#when i find myself getting frustrated it's bcs im purposefully either playing a harder level/mode/with better ppl so i can advance #and the advancing is just not happening #i acknowledge that and accept not every difficulty can be passed at one time or at all sometimes in my limited time/care so i just either #Shut it Off. or go back down to a pace i know can just be carefree #i DO have a thing where i Need to end on a win. which is not good bcs i do that with everythin (like sports) in order to justify me quittin #but if i have to get out of the rlly competitive lobby to get my dopamine then i will bcs this is meant to give u that #anyways it's just insane. ted complains abt superfocus while being superfocused himself on the concept of superfocus #the neverending story #DO anything not active** idk it's my fear of death maybe that i disease myself with everything needing a purpose when it comes to gain

how are we feeling about the new netflix adaptation of avatar??!!!!!!!!!!!! the zuko casting eats and swolzai is so cool to see actually translated well (although we will see how they treat the characters in this)

HEYYYYYYOOOOO!

The only thing I’m really looking forward to from the live action is being able to gossip about it with my mutuals. I don’t really have any other opinion, I mean… it looks cool! (Sokkas hair & zukos scar bother me but ehhhh what can I do?) But I’m an animation junky, I love my anime and my cartoons (bobs burgers beloved) so I don't particularly care for the “real people actors” taking over my cartoons but I’m totally chill about it honestly.

I will ABSOLUTELY be watching it and probably will form a more solid opinion after I actually watch the show.

#Omg I had to message a friend and ask who sowlozai was hahaha #I was like ummmm I don’t know this person #& they had to hold my hand and walk my old ass through it #But yeah! I guess I’m just not the kind of person who jumps to criticism #I mean don’t get me wrong I love a good gossip sesh #Don’t tempt me with a good time haha #I see a lot of effort being put into it so I want to give everyone who worked really hard to bring this show to life a chance #I can’t just tear apart all their hard work from a few photos and a couple trailers #I know it won’t be close to the original but it might be good #I heard the one piece live action was good #Idk I’m watching one piece currently so I haven’t seen the live action but ahhh luffy is so awesome haha #Again this show could be a dumpster fire but can it be worse than the first live action movie….? I think not #*points at friend who actually likes the live action movie* HAHAHA I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE #poor dads still waiting for book two hahaha #Sorry sorry I love you don’t be mad <3 #Ok well COME SCREAM AT ME WHEN YOU WATCH IT AND ILL YELL BACK!!!!!!!#& yeah they had no business making ozai look that offical… damn it live action CUT IT OUT #& im sorry but iroh is the most iroh looking iroh i could have imagined and i giggle every time i see him #But i will take jabs that Netflix threw all that money at the show and still always sunny did a burn scar on cricket 10000x better than zuk #Left eye paint job (i know it’s mean but i doubt anyone would have stopped watching if they would had added a little more realism to that…)#(They didn’t have to shave his brow but put some of that effect glue shit on it and plaster that sucker down #ONE EYE BROW ZUKO!!!!!!!!!!!! )#& sokkas jet black hair with his front poof is just …. Damn it I think it’s actually stupidly canon for them to fuck up sokkas character #THIS MUCH - but again… maybe he’ll pull it off idk I JUST DONT KNOW #The girls are perfect & fuck it when azula picked up a bow #The first thing I thought was that fucking Annie song #“Anything you can do I can do better I can do anything better than you”#Zuko works tirelessly to master his weapon #Azula picks up a bow and laughs ‘silly zuzu weapons as child’s play’ *proceeds to hit a bullseye with no effort*#BECAUSE WHY THE FUCK NOT

Ok so like. Film adaptations of books are not universally bad things on principle. I’m definitely not saying that it’s impossible to produce a good one. But at the same time, film and the written word are different mediums that aren’t necessarily suited to telling stories in the same way.

For example, in a book, especially a highly character driven one, you get to directly see and read a lot of a character’s thoughts. And this has a huge impact on your experience of the story. And sure, you can convey this in a somewhat similar way with a voice over in a film adaptation, but depending on the scene being adapted, this doesn’t always work great or feel natural.

And that’s not a bad thing. It just means that it doesn’t translate to film well because film is a different medium that tells stories in a different way. And there certainly are books that translate well to film. But to be honest? A lot don’t. Especially not in a way that even comes close to touching the original that it is based off of. And that’s fine. Plenty of amazing movies and TV shows wouldn’t translate well into books and most people wouldn’t really want or expect them to.

So no. I really don’t think that “achieving” a film adaptation should be seen as a goal the way it seems to be for a lot of books and I think that seeing this as a goal is often doing a huge disservice to the original work. I think that books that are well served by film adaptations are the exception, not the rule, and that most of the drive to produce film adaptations of popular books is driven by the urge to squeeze every last possible bit of profit out of every single creative idea ever rather than like. I don’t know. Actual appreciation for the source material and a genuine wish to understand it in a different light.

#I am not entirely sure where this came from but thank you for coming to my ted talk I guess???#ok no I know exactly where this came from #shadow and bone netflix 🙄🙄🙄#I’m tempted to make another post applying it specifically to sab netflix but idk #book adaptation #film adaptations #this is also why I don’t really want a secret Shanghai adaptation #it might work for tvd if they did a really good job #but I don’t think it would really work for flf because of how internal a lot of stuff is with some of the characters #like I’m sure a passable adaptation would be hypothetically possible #and sure. maybe it would get more people to enjoy the story #but I just really don’t think film would be an effective way to convey a lot of flf without losing really important parts of it #especially if you look at what makes your perception of Rosalind change from tvd to flf #I could make a whole separate post about this honestly #also from what I have observed film adaptations tend to lose nuance and exacerbate issues present in the books they’re based on #and while I don’t really think Orion fits the promiscuous bi stereotype exactly #I think a film adaptation would likely end up losing the nuance that makes him not fit it #ok I could probably talk about this forever but I am going to have impulse control and stop now

why is there no way to reverse major life decisions. i should be able to go "actually nevermind" and just pretend it never happened with zero negative consequences

#nina.txt #i feel like ive complained about this a million times already so dont mind me #but. god i dont want to graduate. the job market is. not great? i mean could be worse but its also not good. not good at all #and yk back when i started my BA i was already fully aware that this field isnt the *greatest* career-wise and that id need to be pretty #flexible about potential jobs but. i dont think this is going to work out at all #i shouldve done something else. like programming or something. why on earth did i commit to this #i mean. ok its probably not hopeless but its just. making me so incredibly anxious #idk. ill just postpone actually starting on my thesis forever. dont have to actually look for a job if i simply never graduate #bulletproof plan. no downsides whatsoever 👍

and is there not just generally a certain level of decency that would make you like ease up on a person who's obviously more than a little frazzled i am sorry that i cant process all my feelings and regurgitate them to you in an easily digestible manner while im actively In a situation or have a prepared disclaimer about how im so sorry but im just overwhelmed and need you to leave me alone right now or whatever else maybe i just dont know maybe i cant tell you exactly what im feeling or need and if i have to figure it out and explain that to you my brain is going to explode. but you could read the room. is there not a point where a friend would probably just go oh okay let me not continue pushing this person let me take a moment to reflect on their state and perhaps try to ease that or at least not keep fucking pushing on it. and also maybe not choose these moments to make otherwise innocuous but contextually just kinda meanspirited jabs. ok whatever

#not to be a sensitive little bitch except im not.#i dont want to be rude or too explicitly open about the things i dont really like to talk about #but sometimes. frankly. people need to take on the weight of their own feelings. insecurities. thoughts. etc and then some #some of us grew up with little to no emotional support and in fact took on the weight of their family's issues and the brunt of their #emotional immaturity and sometimes that makes someone feel fundamentally rattled and unsafe in moments like that #some of us had pretty much every big personal emotional. thing. that happened to them minimized and turned into some tragic #family conversation. or had someone reply like huh idk if that could have happened to you i certainly dont remember that #and then you wonder if people were ever looking out for you and if the ones that did just truly didnt care.#um. anyway. this is not just to be like oh im so quirky and different and traumatized lol but im reaching a boiling point when it comes #to people just like. doing this shit. or whatever. im going to start screaming #i shouldnt have to bare my fucking soul to you for you to go oh huh maybe this is a sensitive subject perhaps #frankly we arent the same and we dont relate and aw bummerooni ik im not the only sufferer but good god.#our lives were very different in some ways!#and sometimes all i want is for someone to say its ok kid you did good #again. not to be dramatic. but when ive talked about MY upheaval of feelings or w/e like if thats been impacting #how ive been acting and people start crying at me or get all whatever. oh it makes me wanna be the one to pass the torch #yeah man imagine how tired we are.#ok talking incoherently now so im gonna go do my job i guess.#abby talks #i know no one will save me but maybe sometimes it’d be nice to share the weight regardless

idk if it's genuine excitement or the energy drink i had earlier that's actually letting me focus and work but dude. i am CRUSHING this essay. this is Fun To Write. i think i'm actually doing a really good job here. wtf. i love my major man

#i am a LITTLE bit sad i cant do grad school bc like. im going to miss writing essays and researching and all once i graduate #i do genuinely like doing it. call me a nerd or whatever but i love it esp when its on smth fun and interesting like this #now im not sad enough to actually DO grad school lmao #unless i got offered a scholarship or smth idk. wont happen but. hm. if it did.#seriously tho. i would think more seriously abt it if it werent for my adhd. i just dont think its realistic for me #as much as i like my field i dont think i have the ability to focus well enough to complete the work id need to complete #i went to the meeting abt grad school i learned abt what it requires/why people do it and all. i just dont think i can do that #and bc i ultimately cant get diagnosed -> cannot get help/medication thats not going to improve any time soon #after years of learning how to adapt and work with my brain this is probably the best i can do without medical/institutional intervention #its not worth paying a shitload of money and possibly setting my career back by years only to fail out yk?#im not too torn up abt it. ill give it more thought if it becomes relevant but rn its not really on my radar #ive done an excellent job in school! im getting an honours degree (hopefully)! most people dont even get that far #a lot of people with my condition dont even get into university let alone graduate. im incredibly lucky to be able to do what i can #levi.txt #this is all over the place but takeaway is im having a good time! things are coming together i feel confident in my work #im gathering theorists and sources for the section on night of the living dead and having a blast #ive got my examples all lined up my arguments make sense in my head i know where to look for applicable theories etc etc #i just need supporting quotes and im working on that rn!! it hasnt even been that hard #ok. back to work. i need to harness the power of caffeine once more (made my brain quiet) (no longer full of bees) (im in charge)

what is it with me and spending stupid amounts of money on frivolous things every january 🤡

#last year it was $30 for a single snowdrop bulb that wasn't likely to survive in my zone and didn't #now i just spent $130 on rose bushes #both times while unemployed #but something in my brain says buy a little treat :) you deserve it :) in january and then i listen #after carefully not wasting money all the rest of the time #maybe this time i can blame it on a very good (seeming?) job interview this morning #ao im like ok im basically not even unemployed anymore. lol 🤪#idk im just stupid #HOWEVER #the price was deceptive. for the roses. the shipping was almost the same price as the whole thing so it was more expensive than expected #and i had already carefully shopped and picked 3 bushes i really want #when i could have easily convinced myself to buy more lol #anyway despite the instant regret of spending the money im really excited abt the roses #looking forward to having roses in the garden next year!!!#there's some beach roses but the bloom is short and not very fragrant so i got some Fancy ones #bc i love the david austin roses so much #i will be glad i did this i think #but i hate spending money on things that aren't necessities esp while unemployed lol #this has been a shitpost

I've been doing a playthrough of Fallout 4 without fast travel, and am doing as many faction/side quests as I possibly can. Basically I'm taking the main quest as slow as possible.

Only 175 hours in and I've finally met Shaun :]

#wolfy speaks #fallout 4 #to be fair! i also did all of far harbor #havent touched the other dlcs tho #wait thats a lie i did do the vault one #ok so ive done far harbor and the vault dlcs and ive just met shaun. is where im at storywise #basically a couple days straight of just going heeey railroad u got any jobs for me #ive maxed out affection with i think most of the companions. romanced a couple of em #will probably do some art of my sole survivor. i like him #his name is Jesse and hes actually Shaun's uncle. his brother is Shaun's dad and hes an asshole #bc i have other fallout ocs that depend on nate siding with the institute and being evil abt it so.#in that universe hes the sosu #uhhh what else #Jesse is gay and polyam and trans because. fucking look at me #he is a child of atom after far harbor and got the facd tat and everything. but he modtly sided w arcadia #he was a pacifist and a conscientious objector but then the bombs fell woops #he still cant bring himself to shoot guns but bashing skulls is. minorly better. that is to say melee only run #i designed him as a nerd and then decided it was a melee only run so ive had to up his strength as i go which has been. hard.#hes like lvl 80 or smthn now. his strength charisma and int are good but his perception is fucking ONE.#its set at three! SOMETHING is nerfing him and idk what!!! so hes just so fucking oblivious to everything all the time #anyways. rambled enough. i just got excited cus i got to meet shaun and he looks. not gonna lie! a little bit bad. didnt get the best genes #sorry son

#ok rambling for a bit bc people are rudee imo #sillyposting #ok im a server in a bar+restaurant whatever. fun.#saturday we had a new girl who'd run some tables with me. all the training shit and stuff. genuinely her first day.#she was quite and all and there is a LOT all getting thrown at her so im trying to pay attention and make sure shes all good etc.#at some point we dont really have anything to do so im telling her how to grab a drink for herself.#she mentions she wants water. ok! our watertap is the same style as a beer tap and im not sure if she knows how to work it bc. this is her #FIRST DAY AT ANY.ANY. JOB. so i ask “do you know how the tap works?”. which seems like a totally fair question to me.#and my other two coworkers also behind the bar fucking burst out laughing.#and sure. i know its a silly question. obvs WE all know how the tap works and its not that hard to figure out.#but this girl is 16. first day at her first job surrounded by new people and bombarded with loads of information in a short time.#my coworkers werent laughing at her. they were laughing at me. for making sure the person im training isnt left in the dark about anything.#idk ofc im laughing it off at the moment but now looking back? sits a bit wrong (did at the time aswell)#i just dont get why you would LAUGH at someone trying to explain everything the best they can.#the girl even responded no! (maybe nerves etc but :P) so i still think it was a totally fair question to ask!!#and i was being ridiculed for it! why.#anyway =3=#stupid..#normies are so fucking aweful.

#the bin #halloween is for spending alone or for getting absolutely wrecked and being qround a bunch of people #NOT for spending at work doing work being at work stamding at work walking around all day at work doing work at work #but hey. at least it was a very slow tuesday bc everyone was busy with halloween. so ill only have 1 tuesday left #looking forward to starting my new job. i actually kinda really enjoy customer service. i love interacting with people for short time #ofc people can be mean and bad but i can deal with that just fine. i get so much out of short nice interactions and those are discouraged #where i work now. i try to be nice and have friendly interactions as much as i can because its nice but overall my experience is just around #people but not interacting with them otehr than to ask them to please move. when i do interact with people im so nice and helpful and i like #doing it but its kinda bleh. idk. i know im prob gonna hate this job a lot of the time too but id like something different.#and honestly i think itll be good for me. my social anxiety and ability to interact with people is so much better than it was before #and like. it happened so shortly after starting this job. i had to do things so i did and now i know its ok. i have a better understanding #of how people behave and react to how i am and all that stuff. and i think itd be nice to be in an environment where i can be kinda jokey #im a silly person but i think ive cracked maybe 2 jokes total while working at this place for almost 6 months #i make like 12 jokes a day at least when i interact with other people. when i talk or tjink about stuff i just make jokes constantly #but i.dont feel like i can do that at this job. the people are nice but its just a different environment and my type of humor and #personality doesnt mesh well if im joking. i work well there but its kinda bleh for me #but my managers were very nice about my giving my 2 weeks so. and perfect timing because tomorrow im training someone #new to start the same job as me to help out. woulve been doing it anyway and theyd be tehre to fill in when im out suck but instead i #think theyll just replace me so it works out. and i like teaching peope how to do my job :>#me rambling abt my life. nobody cares to read this lol. its not matter. these posts are boring but it feels nice to post stuff like it #makes me feel less isolated even of nobody sees it. different from thping it into a private notes app #idk. i need to talk to people more

i finished 7th dragon a lil while ago n some of the worldbuilding is so funny i cant stop thinking abt it. why is the lost city of atlantis populated by catgirls

#they made it so the women are all catgirls and the men are all more elven which is. something?????#story is kinda wild n not the Most interesting considering all the games ive played w time travel being a main focus #but its ok. enough to get thru it without issue after u get past the tutorial #the characters are also in the same boat where theyre alright but ive seen too many that did each characters job better #i DO rly like the custom character designs n stuff tho. might make ocs out of some of em that i grew fond of #i also appreciate that its a game set in the future that actually has ceased homophobia entirely AND openly. not enough of those i think #also idk if the balancing for the character jobs is perfect (bc one of em is just completely busted) but the dynamics u can create are fun #i always kept each team the same so i didnt play around w that part much but pairing physical-based jobs w each other #and magic-based jobs w each other seems really good #u can even base a team around most of ur characters dying for ridiculous damage output. rly funny idea that i might try one day #my favorite unit is the silly lil catgirl i had w the busted job. she wasnt on my main team so i discovered just how good it was p late #also u can date quite literally everyone. which has both good and bad perks as u can imagine #kind of a. persona type deal. yknow.#on the bright side there was a tragic clone character 👍 they did him so dirty tho there was so much more they couldve done w him #also theres an alien that looks like a stuffed rabbit and uses he/him that also turns into a girl. peak gender tbh #if anything the queer rep in this game kinda rules #not even sure if its on purpose or not. but it rules
