I got more stuff for the Langdon Mansion exhibit today - sign holders! They’re not nearly as exciting as my previous acquisitions but necessary.

my youngest sister thinks she’s so sneaky & can get away with coming into my bathroom and using my things but she doesn’t know i’m insane and would notice if even an ant breathed on my things

Finally watching the eras tour on Hulu and just. GAHHH

did you see janet and steve and ellum on QT’s gala stream? they were all looking adorable

yeah i watched the whole event and really enjoyed it (except for the hypnotist)! big props to qtcinderella for organizing such cool events for the community. it’s really fun to see everyone dressed up! (except for steve who wore a shirt we’ve seen him wearing dozens of times haha)

Oh god being a trauma holder is no fucking joke ''T'ᴥ'T''

I nudged Riku for the front so I could listen to my music and find new things to listen to and that was fun and all until I was hit by a bicycle of trauma triggers of the stuff I have that were passively set off like a few days ago apparently T⌓T Trauma holding is a full time job even when you get better at holding and processing it all and staying grounded T⌓T

But you KNOW I have my MUSIC and so sometimes you just gotta ruffle it off. Do a nice rouse and shake that ick off and focus on what you can handle and control now and not what you escaped and what haunts you. It's easier said than done and I only think I can do it right now cause over the past however many days I think its water downed from a freight train trigger to a bike so its like, ow ◉‿◉ but I'm alive and nothings broken so I'm just gonna *grabs my music* go on with my life since it can't catch me because I'm OK and able to currently walk away from the past that I was ensnared in

But also

*shivers*

Still feels like theres a spider on the back of my neck trying to convince me I am dead and that I should look at what is no longer a present threat and NO spider on my neck, I am not going to edit in a "probably" because you sir are PTSD. (though it is hard to resist but let's use our wise mind here) (≖ ‸ ≖ ✿)

Anyhow, I might also post here more to add a different perspective and aspect of our healing journey to this blog, but I do think I will follow Riku's general rules of keeping this overall productive and not solely for vents and similar since I don't really feel the interest in sharing or talking about things (honestly not even sure if I could if I wanted to because *motions to trauma and selective mutism*)

Also x2, I fluctuate between the loudest talkative part or one of the most silent parts solely because I have learned the only way I can actually hold onto the ability to communicate and not fall into selective mutism is to incessantly burn emotional coal into the "excited" and "loud" fire to keep my ability to talk going because my resting state is psychogenic mutism.

Also x3, I also support and agree with the whole 'don't call yourself a mute alter' and if anything I say here counteracts that please do correct me. As a part that only (relatively) recently started to be able to break out of the psychogenic mutism - I can not fathom how it would be like to have that as a chronic actual body / brain condition and would like the best to support those that do.

No. No. If you're a system and want in on the trauma community but you're endo? fuck off. Genuinely, fuck off. I'm tired of mixed origins, I'm tired of endos who say they have trauma but weren't formed from trauma, I'm tired of the hypocritical bullshit.

It's inherently traumatizing to interact with y'all. It feels like we're being goddamn gaslit again and I'm sick of it. So fucking triggering.

having Thoughts about the discord update and why "you'll get used to it" or "it doesn't really bother me" takes are missing an important point (a point i myself only realized in the last few days).

@maquiscursed asked :

wriothesley growls into arle's ear before he returns to his 20th cup of tea for the day. she was blocking access to the kettle :(

unprompted. || always accepting

─「アルレッキーノ」─  was she getting in his way on purpose ? the KNAVE had long since learned to read his movements enough to predict what he was aiming for by following his line of vision alone. or one could say she had been in his head for long enough to understand what he might desire even before his BODY was heading for it. the harbinger was almost cackling in delight over that deep GROWL deposited close to her ear. thin lips were tugged upwards, cross-shaped hues glancing at the warden with a sort of smile that guaranteed to get on his nerves.

                " don't threaten me with a good time if you aren't going to follow up with it, warden. " the sound of that FERAL GROWL alone was gratifying. the fourth tilted her head back, a chuckle echoed from the back of her throat as clawed digits curled underneath her chin. the smile she wore allowed her own sharp fangs to peek from the corner of it. she could see it in his gaze, he still wanted the kettle. crimson nails dragged over the porcelain handle, the tip clinking against the surface idly.

                head dipped, lips rested close to his ear and a CHILL-INDUCING WHISPER dropped into the quiet air. " if you sink your fangs into me, i'll let you fill your cup despite how you had obviously exceeded the recommended consumption for caffeine. "

A place to rest your tea bag…

A sign to let the bears know you’re looking for them.

How to keep your man happy or something. Idk

Skeleton hands heart?

A gathering of dolls and figurines that are definitely haunted and looking for souls.

do we think bath and bodyworks made their candles with three wicks so they would run out faster?

My mother called me a bit ago to make sure I hadn't died falling off a later or slurped paint or whatever and when I told her everything I got done today she said "well im glad to know your ADHD medication finally came in" which, Rude but yeah, it arrived yesterday.

Teddy: Don't worry, I've got a knife up my sleeve.

Midford: You mean cards?

Cheslock: Probably not.

Teddy, now holding a knife: Nope.

Bluewer: ....
