1. 3. 7. 44. 49.

For the writing meme thing! 1. Tell us about your WIP

Well, I usually have a few ideas buzzing about in my head at any given time, but my biggest project that I’m working towards is a Mass Effect Andromeda fic, namely focusing on Scott and Gil’s relationship post main game. I became really attached to the pairing, and after discovering that there was next to no content for them, I decided to rectify that. i plan to write in Sara and Vetra as a pairing too. I’m still working on the first chapter, but I’m hoping I can have it up soon enough. 3. What is your favorite/least favorite thing about writing?For me, my favorite thing about writing is the ability to create an image and story using just words, and depending on how descriptive I am, a person can see something different if they so choose. As for the least favorite thing, I would say I struggle most with exposition, having a coherant plotline, it’s pretty difficult for me to plan out a plotline, so I kind of play it by ear as I write. 

7. Favorite/most inspirational book? 

I can’t honestly point to any one favorite book, but I always really enjoyed Eric Nylund’s Halo novels, he helped create that expanded universe, and his writing style was incredibly well done. 

44. Why (and when) did you decide to become a writer? 

It was probably around 8th grade, I was in an honors English class, and one of the assignments was to re-write the end of a book you had read. I managed to write it pretty well for my age, and I decided to stick with it. I got into written roleplay in my sophomore year of high school, and since then I’ve kind of been off and on with my writing. 

49. Favorite Fictional world? 

That’s a really tough question. It would honestly boil down to a tie between Star Wars, and Mass Effect. I grew up with Star Wars, and it had a profound impact on my imagination, and who I am today. But the same could be said about Mass Effect. Though I didn’t quite grow up with it, I fell in love with the universe, and the games helped me through some pretty rough times. 

Thanks for asking!

I'm not sure if you're taking requests but if you are could you write a little something about the reader getting like ridiculously stressed over like work or college and harry being a comforting boyfriend❤

a/n: I was really gonna take a break tonight, and I have so many asks in my inbox, but damn, this was just too cute to pass up! 

Anything You Want

It was your first year of grad school. You got hired on as a GA in the Meteorology department. You were paid to study the subject you loved more than anything. You knew from a young age that you wanted to be a meteorologist, or at the time, just a weather person. But now you knew there was way more too it than that. You were worked really hard during your undergraduate years. Between countless calculus and computer science classes, you managed to graduate Suma. 

You found a graduate program that suited you, and you were accepted. You still tried to make time for fun. The summer before starting graduate school you spent some time exploring the Malibu area. You had never really made the time to take advantage of the beach and coastline. As you went hiking and exploring, you found a nonpopulated area. It had one of the best views you had ever seen. You took note, and decided to come back the next night for the sunset. You brought a blanket and some snacks, and stopped short when you saw a figure sitting there already. You hear a man sigh, and turn around.

“Holy shit.” You say under your breath. It was Harry Styles.

“Here I was thinkin’ no one else knew where this place was. Go ahead, send a tweet out to everyone so they can come find me.” 

“I’m...not going to do that. I just came up here to watch the sunset.”

“Alone?” He raises an eyebrow at you.

“Yeah. I just moved to the area...I don’t really know a lot of people.”

“Weren’t you scared to come up here by yourself? It’ll be dark soon.”

“Not really, I have pepper spray and my keys.” He chuckles. “Why are you here?”

“Same as you. I like to come here to think, watch the sunset, or the sunrise. You’re smart though, to bring a blanket and food.” 

“Wanna share?” He smiles at you.

“Sure.” 

And that’s how it happened. He walked you down the trail that night, and somehow you ended up back at his house. And somehow you ended up waking up in his bed the next morning. 

//

It was a summer of love between you two. He loved listening to you talk about the weather, and the science behind all of it. Your grad work started in August. You found small moments to bring him up the roof of the building to show Harry the view. It was a really romantic spot. You were used to him being busy and stressed, but he wasn’t used to you being busy and stressed. You started staying at your apartment more, and less at his place. He hated coming home and you weren’t there. 

As the semester progressed, you found your workload increasing immensely. Between the class you had to teach, the classes you were taking, and your personal research for your thesis, you felt like you were going to spontaneously combust. Harry hated seeing you so overworked, but you’d never explain to him how bad it really was. Another weekend rolled around where you weren’t able to drive out to see him. He thought he’d come to you instead. 

He had a key to your place, so he let himself in. He found you sitting on the floor next to your desk sobbing. He rushed over to you wrapping you in his arms. 

“What’s going on?” He gets you up and leads you to your couch. 

“I’m just so fucking stressed, Harry!” You say between tears, barely able to breathe. “I have a million tests to grade, and these kids are so fucking stupid! I feel like I’m a horrible teacher. I have research do for my thesis that I’ve barely had time to start on, and I’m one assignment away from falling behind in my classes! I can’t do this! I don’t know how I thought I could.” Your voice cracks. “And the worst part is, I hate complaining to you because you’re job is just as stressful, if not more!” 

He rubs your back, and lets you cry into his chest for however long you need. Once you’ve calmed down a bit, he goes to make you a cup of tea.

“Thanks.” You sniffle, taking the hot mug from him. 

“I want you to know, what you’re doing is way more stressful than what I do. I’m under a lot of pressure, yeah, but I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t last a day doing what you do. You can do this. You don’t give yourself enough credit. You work harder than anyone I know.” 

“I just feel like I’m doing everything wrong, Harry. I mean, I haven’t even been able to make time for you. On top of everything else, I’m a bad girlfriend.” 

“You are not a bad girlfriend. You’re amazing. I get busy too, I completely understand.”

“But I feel so guilty.” You start crying again.

“Please, I can’t bare to see you like this, don’t cry anymore baby.” 

“I can’t help it. I miss you so much. I wish it was summer again.”

“You just need to get through these next few weeks, then you’ll have six weeks off for your winter break.”

“God I can’t wait.”

“And then you and I go off on our holiday to Jamaica.” You wipe your nose and smile at him. “I know you’re stressed, but it’s the weekend. The work will be waiting for you Sunday. Let’s snuggle up and have a nice evening together, hm?”

“Alright.” You sigh and lean into him. “Thank you for coming over, I don’t know what I would do without you.”

Harry kisses the top of your head, lays down on the couch and pulls you on top of him. You have a proper cuddle for the first time in what feels like weeks. He was so happy to just be in your embrace again. 

“Do you think tomorrow morning we could get up early and go to our spot?” You ask. 

“Anything you want.” He says, holding you closer to him.

I was tagged by @snackcident-prone (ages ago sorry I’m trash) to post about ‘what I listen to and how they describe me as a person’. 

Which is a fricking fun ass idea but also requires Introspection and Trying Hard to Write Well. So here goes.

The Dead Deads - They’re a new discovery for me, but I immediately clicked because they look cute but have unexpectedly hard edges (death metal growls! damn she’s so good), stoner rock jam-outs and these bizarre lyrics about becoming best friends with Satan, having suicide pacts with serial killers (I think that’s what it’s about?), astronauts and space and uhh transcending the physical plane. 

Basically “I am also obsessed with a cornucopia of weird shit, have a harmless outside with a spacey goth interior! Soulmates!”

Ghost - I love the Catholic mythology in horror movies. Stigmata, The Ninth Gate, The Sentinel, The Omen, The Exorcist, The Prophecy, the part of Bram Stoker’s Dracula where he goes ‘Look what your God has done to me’. 

I used to spend a lot of time around my grandparents and uncle. He loved horror movies, Led Zeppelin, the Grateful Dead and Lord of the Rings. And the grandparents and I watched a lot of b&w classics.

ALSO I’m obsessed with masks and the characters in media that wear them, I love the dual-natured-ness of it. I'd love to know where my obsession with masks came from. Maybe 90s superhero cartoons?

Queens of the Stone Age - There’s an undercurrent of melancholy, anger and disgust, the fuck it all attitude. Especially in the later stuff. ‘I’m alive… hooray.‘ that’s me. There’s a flippancy to it, an attitude of “I'll dance on down the road to hell and have a drink with Satan”.

It's been 80 million years so I have no idea who's done this. No worries if you don't do it: @guttersnarls @nonpopulous @spoonriverrat @misslavender @tothepit @spice-ghoul @spayceghoul

[azimel]

nonpopulous replied to your post: I’ll be boiling this down to three (maybe four)...                

   pssst (beowulf)   

fUCK, I was literally thinking about that earlier today. If I had a for-real one ready to go, I totally would. I think I’ll set that on the itinerary for another year (though I do have BUT IT WAS ME, ELIZA tucked away somewhere)

[scripttorture]

Hi! Thank you for running this blog! I know you've discussed the effects of isolation rather extensively, but I've never really seen anything for children. My MC is 10-11 when they were forcibly taken from their family and kept isolated for almost a year before getting out for a day then back in for several years more. She gets out later, but gets lost in an nonpopulated area and more or less doesn't really interact with anyone until adulthood. How would this effect a person as they are growing?

As far as I know therearen’t any studies on the effects of isolation in children under about 16.Which would explain why you’ve struggled to find anything.

There are some cases ofneglect that might be relevant, but I can’t think of any where the neglect starts at that age and the victim’schildhood was alright before.

ScriptShrink advised methat in some US states it is legal toarrest and confine children of 10, but the studies I’ve seen either don’tspecify the ages of the children or put them at 15-18.

Essentially while I’vetried I still haven’t found anything and my best-guesses based on what I have found seem incredibly vague.

The sources I haveagree that effects on teenagers are more pronounced (ie worse). In some casesthey may also be quicker.

On a ten year old Iimagine there are going to be significant effects on the character’s ability tocommunicate and socialise, but I have no idea what that might look like.

ScriptTraumaSurvivorhas some posts about child abuse and I imagine some of the effects, especiallyregarding trusting and socialising with others will be similar.

But the upshot is I’velooked and I haven’t found anything that really fits your scenario. Myknowledge of effects on children specifically is too poor to make an educatedguess.

I’m really sorry.

Edit: I really appreciate the comments in here trying to help the asker. Thank you so much for doing that. But the case of Genie is one I dismissed when looking up this ask. Genie suffered severe neglect and isolation at a much younger age and that affected her symptoms. Older children show different symptom patterns. :) Thank you again for contributing.

Caution Warranted As VA Incorporates ICER Value Assessments Into Formulary Management Process

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Pharmacy Benefits Management Services and the Institute for Clinical and Economic Review (ICER) recently announced a collaboration in which the VA will use the ICER’s drug assessments as part of its formulary development and price negotiations. This type of relationship might be normal outside of the United States (for example, in the United Kingdom, Germany, and Australia), where input from governmental health technology assessment organizations is used in determining health care coverage decisions. However, in the United States—with our multipayer health care system covering different populations (for better or worse)—this represents the first instance in which the federal government is incorporating nonpopulation-specific assessments and cost-effectiveness-based price benchmarks into drug coverage and purchasing decisions. The ICER assessments are neither specific to veterans nor the particular characteristics of the VA health care system. As the VA considers how to use this information, caution is warranted.

The VA already has a very restrictive formulary, covering only 59 percent of the top 200 prescription drugs in the United States compared to Medicare prescription drug plans that cover about 85 percent. Furthermore, the VA is statutorily guaranteed substantial price discounts on prescription drugs, on top of which it negotiates further discounts as part of creating its formulary. The end result is that the VA receives the steepest discounts in the country.

The current and prior administrations have placed a high priority on improving VA health care. While substantial progress toward better access has been made, more work could be done to make the VA’s formulary decision making more transparent. There are, however, important factors to consider and questions to be asked about the use of the ICER assessments in VA decisions: Will these assessments lead to improvement in our veterans’ access to needed care? Are more rational drug decisions likely to result? And, will veterans’ health improve because of this approach?

The answer to all these questions is the same: Perhaps, but only if the following considerations are addressed.

Consideration 1: Broaden The Clinical Evidence Beyond Randomized Controlled Trials

The decisions regarding which drugs should be included on a formulary need a strong clinical evidentiary backbone. The ICER assessments summarize the available clinical information, and surveys indicate that payers value these clinical summaries. However, the ICER reviews are typically performed just before or as drugs gain Food and Drug Administration approval based only on the results of randomized controlled trials. Payers such as the VA need to make coverage decisions at the time of or soon after drug approval, and reliance upon clinical trials is appropriate for these initial reviews.

Once a drug comes to market, a greater understanding of its effectiveness and safety and how it works in “everyday” situations become available, as does—importantly—a greater understanding of how it works in the VA population. The need to consider real-world performance is even more critical in the VA, where there are populations of patients with complex clinical problems, such as younger veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and older veterans (covered by Medicare) with multiple chronic conditions. Veterans may see private providers and clinicians, as well as clinicians at VA facilities, where they may also come for their prescription medicines.

Clinical trials typically enroll younger patients without additional illnesses. In contrast, the population served by the VA has more comorbidities, may be older, and has different constellations of clinical situations, including homelessness, which is a categorical eligibility for VA health benefits.

Because the ICER assessments are not routinely updated, they don’t incorporate real-world experience with how therapies work in the VA environment. As this evidence accumulates, the value associated with each treatment will naturally evolve. To better reflect the full benefits and harms of therapies to veterans, the VA should conduct periodic reassessments and incorporate information specific to the population of individuals served. The VA has invested heavily in electronic health records, and those databases could be leveraged for this purpose.

Consideration 2: Consider The Perspective Of Veterans And Their Families As Well As The Health Care System

The ICER assessments are based on a health system or payer’s perspective and incorporate the costs that are most relevant to these entities (for example, impact on hospitals/emergency departments, use of medications, diagnostics, or surgery). A broader perspective would include factors such as the economic consequences of a therapy’s impact on a veteran’s ability to work/work more effectively, or reducing the care burden on family members or other caregivers. It should also include additional benefits and expenses from the Department of Veterans Affairs, as well as other federal and state programs.

For the population of veterans and the conditions they face, this broader societal perspective is both critical and likely of high value. If a therapy allows a disabled veteran to reenter the workforce or to become more self-sufficient, its societal and economic benefits are likely to outweigh its costs. Using a hypothetical salary of $40,000 per year, enabling veterans with PTSD to return to work would more than pay for all but the most costly medications. Similarly, if a disabled veteran’s health can be improved so that a caregiver need not be present throughout the day, the economic benefits likely outweigh the drug costs. The VA should follow the recommendations of the Second Panel on Cost-Effectiveness and perform its own societal assessment and not just depend upon a narrow payer or health system perspective.

Consideration 3: One Size Can’t Fit All—Or The Need For A Broader Set Of Value Inputs

Each ICER assessment provides the VA with a single score or price benchmark for a particular drug, based upon the clinical evidence and modeled cost-effectiveness. Value, however, is broader than cost and improvements in discrete clinical endpoints. It also includes quality of life, complexity of the regimen, and caregiver burden, attributes that are highly personal, vary widely, and are not amenable to a singular assessment. Moreover, assessments of value and of what is most important to patients differ by disease, by the stage of that disease, and by the personal determinants of those patients. For example, health care needs, preferences, and value of a therapy are likely to be very different for older Korean War veterans than for those from the Vietnam era, or those who fought more recently in the Middle East.

A singular assessment cannot reflect the differing needs among veterans and VA centers in disparate parts of the country. The ICER assessments provide a starting point, but the VA should incorporate additional information from other, more patient-centric approaches to determining value. These include efforts from the National Health Council (Patient-Centered Value Model Rubric), Avalere/FasterCures (Patient Perspective Value Framework), and the Innovation and Value Initiative, Memorial Sloan Kettering (DrugAbacus, which enables individualized assessments based upon user preferences), as well as value assessments by the American Society of Clinical Oncology and the National Comprehensive Cancer Center.

Consideration 4: Arbitrary Spending Limits On Individual Drugs Is An Incorrect Policy

The ICER approach uses a $915 million budget impact threshold for an individual drug, regardless of whether it addresses the needs of a small population (for example, chronic renal failure) or a large one (for example, diabetes, hypertension, depression). Arbitrary adherence to a spending threshold, even one specific to the VA, could lead to undesirable consequences. A recent study found that dividing up drug spending equally among newly released drugs has no clinical basis, may constrain the use of highly beneficial drugs (for example, hepatitis C therapies), and would not appropriately address aggregate health care spending.

Budget impact concerns may be valid. However, to allow dollars to flow to the most effective treatments, even if the standard of care evolves over time, assessments and policies should be at a disease level instead of at the sector level (hospital care, physician services, drugs, devices, diagnostics). For example, care for individuals with AIDS in the 1980s was hospital-centric and not very effective. Today, spending on this condition has shifted to medications that enable people living with HIV infection to treat it as a chronic condition instead of a death sentence from various opportunistic infections or cancers. By contrast, for patients with severe osteoarthritis of the hip, a reverse resource allocation is appropriate: surgical care in the hospital (joint replacement), instead of spending on chronic opioid pain medications. Arbitrary limits on sector spending or a priori division of the health care spending pie (for example, among hospital care, physician services, imaging, drugs) would neither be economically efficient nor in patients’ best interest.

Looking Forward

Incorporating a variety of drug assessments and information into the VA’s decision process might bring improved care and better outcomes for veterans. However, is the incorporation of the ICER assessments on top of the VA’s long-standing process for drug reviews a means to justify an even more limited and cost-constrained formulary? Or, more positively, might it broaden access to medications deemed valuable? Hopefully, the answer to the former is “no” and the latter, “yes.”

Addressing the considerations in this blog would make the positive outcomes more likely. The VA should proceed with caution.
