Ok we seriously need to see more sugishita love he's literally the funniest character 😭😭😭

[twentyfivemiceinatrenchcoat]

TIME LOOP OMG OMG I hope all the creative writing juices stay fresh for the entire writing process (lol). Time loop stories where a character tries so so desperately to change destiny and save their loved one always hit me so hard :( I’m so excited to see how you’ll write about suguru and reader in the story 🫂 good luck and take care !!

AAAAA THANK YOU ANON 🥺🥺🥺 i appreciate the encouragement soso much <333 TIME LOOP STORIES ALWAYS HIT ME SO HARD TOOOO…….. this one will probably be angsty and prose-heavy but i do want it to feel . Hopeful. in the sense that reader will never give up on him!!!! they’ll keep trying again and again and again….. and again………………….

i’m still not super sure how i’m going to format it, so!!! here’s a little (… pretty long) sneak peek of an interaction between sugu and reader that i’m not sure if i’ll end up including or not :’3 depends on what fits!!! but it’s one i picture them having, either way!!!!!

“I could’ve made some better decisions, too.” Eddie admits, hand reaching up to rub the back of his neck. “Could’ve gone to your mom’s with you. I still haven’t apologized for that. I’m sorry.” he says with so much sincerity and sorrow.

“It’s-” the word okay gets stuck in her throat. Because it’s not. It never was. She had to choose between staying with her son, and a husband she did nothing but argue with, or go spend the little time she had left with her mom. It wasn’t fair, and it wasn’t okay, and she was so tired and overwhelmed, and angry, and she couldn’t fucking do it anymore. Maybe it wasn’t the best decision, but she had to go. She had to see her mother, take care of her… say goodbye. Getting to do that is the one and only thing about that decision she doesn’t regret.

“Yeah.” Eddie breathes out, and silence falls over them, for just a few seconds that feel like forever.

“I get that you needed time.” she suddenly speaks up, not able to conceal the hurt and anger in her voice, as it still lingers there, even years later. She knows her own faults, but she’s not the only one responsible here. “You had just gotten back, you wanted to be close to your family, you needed time to adjust. I get that, and I didn’t want to pressure you, but- my mom didn’t have that much time, and I needed to be with her. I know you’d do the same if it was anyone from your family.”

“That’s true.” he says quietly.

Discussing the NCR (Fallouts NV's Military Industrial Complex)

Fallout regularly discusses the idea of the military, its faults, its strengths, and most importantly, the psycho-social aspects of it regarding those who are members. We have seen a direct critique of the military generalized through the Enclave's overt nationalism, the hoarding of resources and indoctrination through the Brotherhood of Steel, and an almost eerily modern critique of the whole military-industrial complex through the NCR in New Vegas. In these series of posts, I will be focusing primarily if not exclusively on the last one.

The NCR we see in the game is strictly the military side of things and the depiction of active occupation during a time of eminent war, conflicting factions, and resource scarcity. It is in this we are missing a major factor that negatively affects the view of the NCR in the game and out: Civilian life along with citizen opinion on the military. While we do get Mojave civilian opinion on the military (often neutral or negative) we do not get those who are New California Republic citizens, not those who actually discuss the military more so not understanding the importance of the occupation and the President's choices.

We do not see how life is regularly lived by the average citizen as we have not seen New California in New Vegas, though, we get words and glimpses that the people are relatively content in the growing country minus the fact many people are not happy with the choice of encroaching on the Mojave. This most similarly reflects it's real-world application that many civilian citizens reject acquisition and war due to the economic effects it has on the country and the general violence/loss associated.

In this, we come to an issue of losing a perspective that is unique to the NCR as a military representative. The Brotherhood is notably a place where its active members are intertwined with its efforts, the young are raised to be scribes, paladins, etc... To where even if one is not fighting for The Brotherhood, they are still intertwined, it's propaganda is the life. The Enclave is even more cut n' dry in that it is mostly made up of government representatives. It is a group even smaller than the former, even more selective and intertwined that their propaganda IS a form of Eugenics. The NCR is unique in that there is a clear distinction between what is the military force, the civilian population, and the choice if one wants to be a part of the former.

There is a distinct difference in the cultures of the factions you are born into and those you must enlist or join (forcibly for some). While this is a long-winded way to get into the actual discussion I want to facilitate throughout these posts I wanted an initial background post to understand the aspects I am and am not exploring and explaining along with a hub post to link everything I intend to discuss in the coming days and weeks, starting with:

Why Do People Join the NCR?

...which will be discussed and linked back here like everything else regarding to this topic.

I've been thinking about it for a long time (a week) to finally write another TDWP fanfic.

Right cool.

Just this time it's multi chapter, with a full blown plot and everything, and kinda my au/canon divergence.

It's set 20 years after Andy's left Runway in Paris. She worked for the Mirror as a fashion reporter, then flew up in the ranks and became Co-Editor in Chief.

However, the sponsors withdrew and the Mirror ended up falling into bankruptcy, yada yada- five years later she's unemployed again.

Over that time at the Mirror, she came back into contact with her godmother (whole other backstory, might write about it after I finish this fic), Floriana who works at Style Queen (yes I added another fashion magazine, from the MLB universe tho) and she helps her get a job as a Fashion Reporter at The New York Times.

Again, flies up through the ranks- Fashion Editor, then Sr. Fashion Editor. Then heading more into the politics department, she finds herself being the head- they being offered the Editor In Chief job.

This all seems to happen rather quickly,but it actually takes the remaining 15 years and I won't be going over it much in the story but this is just some background character building.

Sounds a bit boring and uncharacteristically Andy right? Not really no. That work on the Janitors Union she did was, politics really. And it makes sense that after Runway, she wants to be into fashion more and more. Just to impress Miranda.

She's finally Editor In Chief, and gets an invitation to go to the Paris Fashion Week. And of course she has to go, I mean she was a fashion correspondent- no one can do it as well as she can.

Oh my god that sounded like something Miranda said in the movie.

Anyway- of course she then realises that she'll have to meet Miranda again. It's too late to leave now.

And that's when the story starts!

And as a sneak peak I'll tell you that it starts with Andy overthinking on a bridge over the Seine.

Oh and her hotel is opposite Miranda's!

Tell me if anyone's interested in this, I'll try dedicate every chapter to any fans.

yeah so it’s not like my codependent james & sirius don’t love or care for other people. it’s that, when it comes down to it, their default is the other and sorry if u don’t think that’s different but it is.

they’re not putting the people in their life on a twisted graded hierarchy, they’re just?? each others?? most important person?? like bro why is it that the most common tropes on fucking earth are a problem when it’s prongsfoot????
