“Right, I’d better be off. Mavis will be scratching up my curtains if I don’t go and feed her,” Evan said before hurrying out of the room. Sirius waited until the front door had closed behind Evan to begin berating Barty. 

“Why can’t you just be nice? Evan was so kind to you yesterday, and you just throw it all back in his face at the first chance you get?!” Sirius pinched the bridge of his nose between his thumb and index finger before letting out an exasperated sigh. “I swear B, if I didn’t know what an actual sweetheart you were underneath all the shit you’ve piled on top I’d be done with you. But—”

“Well, be done with me then!” Barty shouted, hissing in pain, and he forced himself to get off the sofa. Inside, he was sobbing. Sirius was his oldest friend now that he no longer had Regulus. No one else bothered with him. He was alone. He wanted to throw himself at Sirius’s feet and beg him not to throw him out, but the sliver of pride he had left stopped him from doing so. 

“Barty, where are you going?” Sirius asked, following behind him to make sure he didn’t fall. 

“Why do you care? You don’t want me here, not really. Who needs me around when you have Remus? I’m better on my own. Always have been,” He bent to loop his bag over his shoulders, pain shooting down his side as his ribs protested. 

“Barty,” Sirius said sadly. Barty screwed his eyes shut, he couldn’t have Sirius being nice to him right now, or he’d crumple. 

“Where are my shoes? And I want my mum's watch back!” he snapped. He might be able to replace the glass and maybe fix the links, but even if he couldn’t, it was hers and the only thing he had left. 

“Here’s your shoes,” Sirius told him, kneeling in front of him to help him get his feet into the boots. Barty shoved his feet in and shuffled away from Sirius when he tried to tie the laces for him. 

“Sirius, where did you put the watch?” Remus asked from beside the bookcase. Sirius got up and went over to Remus. Barty got a sinking feeling in his chest. 

“It’s next to my wand,” Sirius said, staring at the spot to the left of his ‘magic wand’. “Barty, I swear I left it right there,” Sirius said, looking at him with wide eyes as he pointed at the shelf. That was enough. Barty broke. He fell to his knees as hot tears flooded down his cheeks. Sirius was on him in seconds, wrapping him in his arms and murmuring soothing words in his ears, not that Barty could hear them. 

The next thing he knew, he was upstairs in bed. His boots had been removed again, along with most of his clothes. He hurt, inside and out. A soft knock at the door made him flinch. 

“Yeah?” He called out, immediately coughing as his dry throat caught. 

“It’s only me,” Sirius said as he walked in and handed Barty the glass of water from the bedside table. Barty gulped it gratefully. 

“I’m sorry,” he said as soon as his throat was lubricated again. “I’m so sorry, Sirius.” His chin wobbled as he bit back the tears that wanted to escape again. Sirius rolled his eyes at him, and then the tears really did come because Sirius looked so much like Regulus then that it hurt. “Fuck,” he whined as Sirius lay down beside him and pulled him to him. Barty just let himself go. 

It must have been hours later when he woke up again after exhausting himself from crying on Sirius’s shoulder. Sirius was snoozing beneath him, his soft snores making Barty smile fondly at him. 

Voices from downstairs drifted up into his bedroom. Barty stretched and tried to wake Sirius, but when he didn’t so much as stir, Barty left him. He pulled on a pair of jeans and a black tee before attempting to discover where the bathroom was now. Having relieved himself, he walked downstairs. He needed coffee and possibly toast, but mainly coffee. 

“Wow, that’s so sweet. He’s going to be so happy,” Remus said. Barty was about to walk into the living room, but he paused with his hand on the doorknob. “It was his mum’s, you know. She gave it to him on the day she died. It’s all he has left of her,” he felt betrayed. Who was Remus Bloody Lupin to tell his story? He’d told him that when he’d nearly eaten the last bar of chocolate Hope had ever given Remus. It was in confidence. How dare he?! 

He gripped the doorknob so hard his knuckles turned white. He was about to storm in and start shouting again when he heard someone respond. 

“Oh, that’s awful. I hope this brings him a bit of comfort, though. Looks like we’re all in the dead mum's shit dad's club.” It was Evan. Barty let the door fall open.

There will be times in your life when things simply have to be replaced because they are tired, broken, worn out, harmful, outdated, or irrelevant. Take an inventory of the things that no longer serve your best and highest good so you can replace them with things which do.

I have a conundrum and I crave opinions!

**Context below the poll.**

I've been looking for a wooden folding leaf table for a while. The plan was to get one, strip it, sand, and stain it with some variety of purple. Visible mending is my favorite for many things. Furniture included.

Imagine my outright glee when I found one for $40. And it came with a storage section for chairs with the original four chairs! A year of searching, now over with results.

I looked at the pictures enough to see that it needs cosmetic repair, but it's sturdy. Good bones. The accordion door sticks, but it does work. The varnish has seen better decades, etc.

The seller was fab. Told me about the previous owners(mom and dad) and it was lovely. I bought a couple of other things from the sale. Small stuff I keep forgetting to buy. Very nice experience.

The accordion door(kept up because I haven't found why it's acting up yet)

Original wheels!

The top has water damage.

The hinge has the center metal of the hinge about a cm out.

The leaves have water damage and some scraping.

Mouse damage(I'm innocent).

I look up, "Romanian drop leaf table," and this thing is most likely from the 60s! In better shape they sell for more than $1000. Obviously this one needs work, but I mean, for $40 this is amazing. Past amazing.

But.

Is it okay to alter an antique?

Can I still turn this purple, or is that disrespectful?

I know that no matter what I do someone will be upset. I also know someone has already called dibs on the table upon my death regardless of which direction I go(they're not kidding, but they did say it in a funny way).

With just how much damage it has and the fact that a lot of this is veneer; it seems like a total overhaul is necessary either way. I've been told to scrub the tabletop with a baking soda paste mixture and a toothbrush. I confess, I'm not sure I'm really ready to do that. That sounds like a terrible time.

Originally spray painting the table was an option. It still could be if I do just the top. It may genuinely be the best option for the table's longevity. Quick, thin, and there's a lot of options for color and seal strengths. Plus there's already something that will need paint in the kitchen(this table will be in the kitchen) so they could match.

Non sewing post, switch joy con repair

I ramble

Some of these are mine and some aren't. I waited until I had a whole bunch to batch fix them.

Since I was old enough to not get caught, I've tinkered with broken electronics. Sometimes I could fix it, and sometimes it stayed broken.

Over time more and more is fixable. Practice makes better and I am continuously better each year.

I kept the tutorial on my phone until I finished, but by number three I was fixing them in under 10 minutes. Unlocking the tab slots was both a joy and a nuisance! I like the tweezers a lot.

This was the first batch.

In total I repaired 7, mostly left side, joy cons.

Other than cramping the heck out of my hands, it was very doable.

One is out of commission until I order a replacement battery. I'll look up what the heck to do with a pillowy battery tomorrow. I'm very thankful that it didn't decide to blow up or start a fire. I hope it can be recycled into more batteries.

Overall I paid $24 USD for the kits and spent under 3 hrs while watching liminal space themed games youtubes (I'm confused but fascinated).

Buying a single joy con around here is $40

$40 a pop versus ~$3-4 a pop.

If T makes you gain weight and E and antidepressants do it too, and so does enjoying good food and not being hungry all the time, then perhaps maybe sometimes joy & weight gain come hand in hand and that's good
