getting genuinely concerned my laptop won't have the storage space for the tumblr backup of this blog given it's already at 35 gb and the progress bar (assuming it's accurate) is NOT very far...

Turning up the music to max volume and laying facedown on the bed because the mental health has hit rock bottom like DROWN IT OUT, DROWN IT OUT, DROWN IT OUT, DROWN IT OUT, DROWN IT OUT, DROWN IT OUT--
Thoughts of self harm and maybe suicidal ideation in the vent in the tags. Sorry.
#irl#vent#self harm mention#self harm#i am not having a good time today at all chat#my brain is giving me the itchy little localized signals in my wrists that are connected to the Bad Thoughts and Horrible Coping Mechanisms#and like honestly i feel like i should be fine but im not#shit sucks#almost started crying because i realized i forgot to grab some new exfoliating gloves while i was at the store#gonna be eating nothing but ramen and potatoes this month#im lonely and life feels like a really shitty time loop and im probably never gonna be able to get my cats and bring them here#because i need to somehow manage to save up $500 just for oet deposit and pet rent#when everything is month to month to month#i dont have any friends and i dont talk to my family and i sincerely feel like i could die and the only person that would know would be#my partner and even then thats because we live together#and when i do finally die its not like anyone will have known me#people that i should or used to be close with will find out eventually and theyll all call me by a name that isnt mine#using pronouns and words and descriptors that misrepresent me as a person#ect ect ECT#whatever#like whats even the point honestly????#i dont know what im doing here i just feel like a huge burden to everyone around me#dssi is barely enough for groceries but its not like i can get a job near me being legally blind#im just a big ol burdensome money sink lolol#just an overly needy little waste of space#i dunno#i dont know shit anymore#im so fucking tired all the time man#im just#so tired

Hi im not sure if the requests were open or not so if not just ignore it
What about enemies to lovers with tighnari, but the reader has adhd, tighnari doesnt know this and just thinks the reader doesnt focus on his lectures just to annoy him
The reader also doesnt know that tighnari isnt aware of the fact they have adhd. They tought they told them before or someone else did and he is just being rude on purpose.
Now watch tighnari's emberrasment after he finds your adhd meds and goes "oh gods im an idiot"
— misunderstanding [tighnari x gn! adhd! reader]
Tumblr media
warnings/notes; fluff, comfort, adhd, mental health, does get slightly angsty in the depressed reader type of way but tighnari comes to fix it ofc <3 i think i made this way more emotional and comfort focused than it should've been sorry anon but i hope it still fits ;;
summary; your emotional breakdows for the past few weeks were all just a misunderstanding? tighnari should learn how to read better. proper summary is technically in the ask i'm just playing around hehe
Tumblr media
"Again, Y/N?"
"What?" Your eyes flicker back to the lead ranger who's berating you for disregarding his lessons. For the 6th time this week. You'd think that by now you'd have learned to stop drifting away from his voice and the lecture...
But all he could see is that you truly didn't want to pay attention, you thought that staring at the clouds and people outside mattered more than the instruction he was offering.
"Y/N, please, I understand if you don't think it's important to learn all this, it can be very extensive but... I don't understand why you would ask for extra tutoring if you don't care. Is it just to take away time from me?"
"No, I- I get you're really busy, I would never take advantage of you like that, I really want to learn this and become a better forest ranger..."
You'd told him before about how difficult it is for you to memorize the content you're supposed to learn. Everything seems to just leave your mind, entirely without your consent. One day you think you've got something entirely scaled out in your mind, but by the time you have to answer questions about it, you can only stare into nothing and rack your empty brain, just to find not even a hint towards the answer.
You can promise Tighnari that you'd paid attention that day all you want, but you don't have the evidence to prove it. The times you can remember something fully and it stays, you throw a mini-celebration in your head, feeling successful. Yet - you had to constantly remind yourself about the fact that it wouldn't be enough to become as good of a ranger as Tighnari, or even your colleague Collei.
Even the extensive tutoring you'd begged Tighnari to give you wasn't helping, you felt hopeless. Now here he was, getting upset at you for something you couldn't control. You knew he had his eyes on you every time you couldn't stop fidgeting from stress and the overwhelming feeling of what you had to accomplish that day. You felt so... Weak. Didn't he understand your condition? You were almost positive he'd read through the files that were stored somewhere in Gandharva Ville. He did that for everyone. Shouldn't he understand how debilitating having ADHD felt?
"Y/N. You're spacing out again. What do you need from me so that I can actually help you?" Tighnari raised his voice.
Comfort, you wanted to speak out. But instead, you just looked down at your lap in silence. It wouldn't do anything to suddenly spill out your stressors and illness to him. He wasn't a therapist after all, he was just a student, professor, and a ranger at the same time. He doesn't deserve to have more issues thrown on him. Either way, this was something you'd been told to deal with yourself your entire life.
"If you're going to be like this, the session is dismissed for today. I hope you'll be more focused within the class along with the rest of the trainees tomorrow. Be awake bright and early in the morning so you don't miss anything. Although, it seems like you're not getting enough sleep so I might be a little more lenient."
You heaved a sigh of relief, ready to go home and cry your stress out under the comfort of your blankets. At least maybe you could rest a little more in the morning, but it would just be another case of you being portrayed as 'lazy', when all you wanted was to be as active as the others.
"Thank you, goodnight Tighnari," you frowned.
You returned home and let the tears spill the instant you fell into your bed, feeling even more helpless than a few weeks ago when you hadn't asked him for help. He was acting like an ass to you for no reason. You really didn't comprehend why he couldn't have some mercy on you and try to help you learn in other ways that would be memorable.
A knock echoed through the building you slept in and called home. "Yes?" You managed to get out in between choked sobs as you tried to calm down and wipe your face, deciding on pretending to have just been asleep so that your eyebags weren't suspicious.
It was Tighnari who walked in, of course.
"I thought I'd get you some tea, to help you sleep. It's obvious you're not having a good time. I'm sorry if I'm too strict on you, but I can't help you if you don't put in the effort."
You untuck your head from your sheets.
"I've been trying so hard to put in effort, Tighnari. You just... don't care to see it. Thanks for the tea, you can put it on my bedside table."
"Y/N..." He pauses for a moment, coming closer while contemplating on what you said
There's a long silence after he places the hot cup down.
"Shit, Y/N, you're kidding me right?"
"Did I do something wrong again?..." You tensed up.
"No, I- How did I not see this. I'm an actual idiot. This makes so much sense."
You look towards Tighnari to see what was causing his mental spiral.
In his hands was a small bottle, a paper on it labeled as treatment for ADHD.
"Oh, yeah... Sorry, I forgot to take them today. That must be why today was worse than usual..." You rub your hands over your fatigued face.
"That's not it, I'm just... Y/N, you never told me you had ADHD? I've been so hard on you this entire time because I just thought you hated my lectures and teaching and me."
You freeze up after hearing his words, stuck in the element of shock.
"I thought you knew? There's no way you didn't know, it's on my files, isn't it? The ones you read about everyone?"
"You noticed that? I must've just entirely missed it. Y/N, I'm so sorry. No words can explain how I feel right now. I'm so guilty."
"Tighnari, don't stress over it too much. You don't know how relieved I feel right now, I thought you were just entirely dismissing my condition. Don't feel guilty, I understand it was just a big misunderstanding now."
"Still, I'm so sorry. Do you perhaps need some comfort, attention, anything? I don't have anything planned until class in the morning. You can explain things to me for hours, I don't care. My ears are always open to listening whether I like it or not anyway. We're going to plan out a guide that will help you memorize the content more, we can even do experiments and things, I will bring you to a proper forest ranger in no time. I wish I'd known this earlier."
The next morning, the entire group of forest rangers saw Tighnari and you exit from the same bedroom, tired with eyebags present, but you were smiling like never before.
You two were already closely acquainted, where could this go further now that he knew the truth?
THIS WAS SO MUCH FUN TO WRITE PLS IM SOBBING. like actually bcs like partway thru this i teared up and idk if it was the tighnari playlist i was listening to or the kinning what mc feels in this 💀 neurodivergent people unite (though this IS heavily based on how adhd shows itself to me, it'll rarely be the exact same experience for everyone!)
on a side note i rly hope this was written well for u anon, u are my first actual request and i think thats super sweet and i enjoyed writing this a lot, u get a special first request badge <3

My wife got feelings for someone else over the summer and it has crushed my self-esteem.
We've been together 8 years and married for 5. We went through a hard time during the pandemic. We both struggled mentally, especially due to lack of social interactions outside of the home and it wore down our relationship. I have been really depressed and less attentive as a partner and I acknowledge that it played a role in the situation.
In May, she developed a crush on a coworker. Nothing ever happened, they never texted or talked much outside of the workplace but I noticed eventually because of the changes in her demeanor. She stopped wanting to spend time with me, treating me with complete coldness/disinterest and couldn't stop herself from talking about the girl at work. I caught on and after weeks of asking about it, she finally admitted it. I asked her to cut contact with her so that we could work on marriage and try to move forward. I asked her to switch her schedule or switch store locations. She didn't want to. Instead, told me that she wasn't sure she even wanted to be with me. I was devastated. I was already really depressed and it just knocked me further down. Eventually, after several days of her saying that she "needed space" and "wasnt sure" about us, I asked her to leave our home until she could figure it out. She was gone for a few days, during which I cried and came to terms with the likely end of our marriage.
But then, to my surprise, she came back (after discovering that the coworker was totally unavailable) saying that she realized the coworker is actually a narcissist and that she was blinded by a fantasy. She stated that she wanted to work on our marriage and was committed to me. Since then, she has switched job locations and has no contact with the girl. We started marriage counseling (we go about once a month) and I can tell that she is genuinely trying.
The problem is that I can't seem to get over it and I feel pathetic about that. It has only been about 2 months since everything went down, but I feel so worried constantly. Worried that she'll get a crush on someone else. Worried that she doesn't actually love me but only stayed because I provide stability. Worried that she isnt attracted to me. I have lost all confidence and I feel hyper-vigilant all the time. The girl she had a crush on was younger, cooler and prettier than me. I can't stop wondering if I am not enough. This is definitely worsened by the current state of my mental health; I'm going through problems with my family and have only one close friend that I dont see much. I feel isolated and neurotic. I am in therapy but I just feel so hopeless. Has anyone else been through anything similar or have any suggestions about how I can feel better or move forward?

My pipe-dream wheelchair:
Super lightweight but incredibly strong
Caster wheels that are big enough that microscopic terrain changes dont bother me, but wheels that also allow for a tight turning circle
The ability to function effectively on all surfaces. Truly all terrain. Road, gravel, grass, sand.
A seat that is able to adjust to the perfect height for everything with minimal effort. No more being too tall or too short for tables, wheelchair trolleys, sinks, or countertops
But this height change feature is seamless and streamlined in a way where it doesnt make the wheelchair different or difficult to use. It somehow just magically is always the perfect height.
Power assist that is lightweight and able to be controlled with my mind so there is always the perfect amount of boost
The ability to push and steer in a way that never causes my arms to get tired and the push mechanism is able to change to what i need. Rims or levers or a joystick able to be swapped to as desired
Active and sporty while still being sturdy and functional without being bulky or unsightly
Excellent shock absorption to the point where it puts no more strain on my spine than an able bodied person would experience walking. Lile fucking magical, super-light-weight suspension.
The ability to change colour to fit my intended vibe, mood, or outfit
Easily adjustable features. Like being able to alter the seat back positioning without having to get out the toolkit and spend an hour fiddling with bolts until it feels just how i want
Compartments that are easily accessible without needing to hyperextend joints or bend my body in a way that it cant
Incredibly easy to pack down and store in my car. Like basically just a one and done type of system. I should be able to lift it in and out of any storage space easily and it isnt cumbersome or a hindrance in any way. I should be able to get out of the car in roughly the same amount of time it takes other people to do so normally
The complete inability to fall out of it. Not a seatbelt, because that just means when you inevitably fall, you to hit the ground and are then awkwardly fastened with your chair on your back. No, i mean, it is impossible to knock me out of it. Like that clown doll they did psychological experiments with where its center of mass is so low it always perfectly rights itself
The ability to never get my clothes dirty. Clothing guards that arent a hassle to deal with, and wheels that dont transfer dirt and muck onto my sleeves
A cupholder (essential)
A way to carry a bag or suitcase or something that does not involve balancing it on my lap
An elegant frame design that looks cool as fuck and goes beyond the traditional wheelchair shape while still being practical
Wheel spokes that dont crush my fingers when i take the wheels off
Wheels, that if i take them off, always perfectly click back into place and never cause the "your wheel is technically attached but is slowly drifting away from your chair and setting you up for a really nasty fall if you dont notice in time" kind of fail safe
Easy to clean and service. Low maintenance. Does not require me to have to wait around at the area ive dropped it off at for hours bc i have to wait for my legs to be returned to me
The ability to hold an umbrella in a way that my entire body is shielded from rain
A recline feature almost like a tilting power chair, so i can practically lie down whenever i need
Breaks that allow for breaking without getting in the way of my hands when i push
Basically what i want is pure fantasy. But if you're creating a fantastical wheelchair then it should get to be awesome beyond imagination

Day 6 of Heartbreak
I woke up in true peace. I feel the peace of God because no human or thing could make a person feel like a baby in the cradle again. But I do. I feel like God held me to sleep, but not with His arms but with peace. I normally feel anxious and a subtle hint of depression, but today I dont even feel normal. I feel better than I ever have. I wonder if mental illness stays with us too long, then we truly believe it is life. But In this moment, life just got better.
I wonder if thats Gods plan all alone. To show us that how we were living doesnt compare to what he has to offer us. Maybe heartbreak is needed to make it clear to us that attaching ourselves to the things around us to tightly, will at somepoint cause pain. Maybe we are supppose to just appreciate things and accept in one season they may be here and in another they may not be. But regardless of every loss, the beauty of life still remains.
Anyway, last night I think I dreamt of you but its weird, I dont remember you being in my dream. I just feel like you were, I wonder if at somepoint thats how life will. Maybe 5 to 10 years later I am reminded of you in some way, some smell or some laugh or song, but I cant remember who it reminds me of. It sounds sad but isnt that the cycle of life?
At some point, all of our brains stops reminding us so often of the person, at somepoint it begins to think 'oh I dont think ill be seeing that person anymore' so it stops reminding us. Then slowly it begins to use the space for something else. I guess grief is at its highest when the brains reminder is at its highest.
But the heart is different. It will store a person forever, but that doesnt have to be painful. It can be beautiful, its life its saying no I think ill keep this person for a lifetime. So though the mind forgets the heart is forever shaped in memory of the people who were once everything.
I accept this cycle, I hope you do to. I hope you can you free yourself from the lies the enemy tells you, I hope you find that God knows who you are even when you dont and that His love is good enough. I would know.
I dont expect this euphoric feeling to stay, maybe one day it will if I truly learn the lessons of life enough to find permanent peace. But in this moment, I am just glad its here. I forgive myself for not knowing the lessons of life, the ones that would help me form healthier relationships with people and myself. I hope you do too.
I know there are may things you have done leading up to the end of our relationship that I will never know. I can sense it, but maybe its for the best that I will never know. I feel sorry for you that you carry that with you. I wish you could have just let it out for your sake when I asked for the truth. But maybe it would have been too much.
In some ways, we both didnt treat each other how we should have. I accept that and I cant blame you any longer, but heartbreak has a way of playing with a humans emotions. So I dont know what I will think or feel next. I will wait and see what heartbreak brings later today, but for now it has brought me a deep peace.

“I think you’re off target,” I said. “You’re talking about Foil, I get it, and Parian, and now the Chicago Wards and Glenn. But all of the decisions they made were when I wasn’t anywhere near them. Unless you’re implying I have some sort of mind control.”
yeah taylor, about that,, your category of control is attributed to insects but it also includes crustaceans, cephalopods, arachnids, not to mention the microscopic parasites and WORMS. it seems your category of control is a lot more open than you think, possibly even able to expand.
all im saying is mind control isnt that far off.
Tumblr media
i dont think taylors ever snap decided someone to be bad just because of how they interpret and summarise her actions, i wonder whats different here
We won, I thought.  We beat him, and you’re quibbling over details.
ah, she doesnt consider her actions here wrong.
Tumblr media
that's how canary gets out? i had ideas but none of them were endbringer fodder
We won, you bastards.  I clenched my fists beneath the table.
this is really getting to her, fuck.
Tumblr media
how arent they noticing this? bugs dont go this ignored, especially if someone in the room is a bug master, am i going crazy?
Tumblr media
she's been caught from the start, damn.
…He won’t have our assistance, I thought. I heard the words, and my bugs spoke them.  Every bug, within the building, repeated him, verbatim.  The good, the bad, the details that damned me.  It wasn’t a question of finding the right person, or saying the right thing.  It was everyone, saying everything.
!!!
whent things go bad, taylor spot checks, when things get worse SHE SPOT CHECKS HARDER
“It’s exactly what Chevalier wanted,” I said. My eyes dropped to the table. I didn’t meet his gaze, didn’t try to engage the visitors. “Open, honest. Exposing the rot at the center.”
YYEEEAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHH
Tumblr media
what does the chief director mean by that... taylors right, they were opposed from the get go.
if chief west was on her side, that would mean very disturbing things for the PRT (cauldron compliant)
“You want me to make a move. Powerful enough to shake them, break the status quo, not powerful or blatant enough to break my probation or give them an excuse to drop the book on me.”
given that she was always going to do the first half, (this is taylor after all) glenns basically just asking her to hold back and be careful
Tumblr media
ugly crying.
Tumblr media
uglier crying.
Tumblr media
UGLIEST CRYING.
.
okay im back
“This space was for vehicles, but Stardust graduated three years ago, died a year after joining the Protectorate. We’ve been using it for storing paperwork, and your moving in was a good excuse to get some things sorted out. Your workshop.”
yesssss textile manufacturingg :):):)
Tumblr media
maybe?? taylor MAYBE????
Tumblr media
STOOPPP
Tumblr media
oh it was hazing, i was really worried about the direction of the story for a bit there
“Don’t sue me for sexual harassment,” Annex told me. I smiled a little.  “I’m not going to sue.  I’ve been around people who did worse.”
taylors the kind of person who people apologise to after she talks about stuff shes gone through
Tumblr media
i want to like these guys, i really do.
lets hope they get more development and become more distinct
(i've already forgotten who has what powers)

hii ^_^ did you know that to sail up wind you have to be at a 45 degree angle to directly upwind. anything closer is called being in irons and you will not be able to leverage the wind to move forward. to move across this space is called tacking, and the boom (the metal pole that holds the sail at a 90 degree angle to the mast) will swing across the boat and the crew will have to jump to the other side of the boat so the crew doesn't add to the weight of the wind on the sail, capsizing the boat. this isnt so much a worry on larger sailing vessels, but on something like a racing dinghy (anywhere from 14 to 18 ft) if you dont move to the windward side fast enough, you will definitely flip the boat. Tacking is relatively safe, and the boom doesn't move far when you cross the wind, as it's held in place by the main sheet, the rope that attaches to the boom and controls the amount of slack on the sail. jibing, on the other hand, is a maneuver where you cross the wind while heading downwind. This can be rather tricky in a small boat that is easily capsized. When heading downwind, the sail will be at at almost a 90 degree angle to the rest of the boat, hanging out over the water. When you cross the wind while heading downwind, the boom will violently swing across the boat and over to hang out above the water on the other side.
Very brief lesson on tacking and jibing if you do not know about it already ^_^ hopefully this is worth anything.
on the other hand, im super interested abt what you have cooking for yamwbfv. Whats in store for tazercraft and fit at the base they're checking out? where do they go after?
hi \o/ i didn't actually know much about sailing this is very interesting! if i decide on a yamwbfv ending where they sail out of there (aka mike's current plan) i'm coming back to this ask lol. i think the most i've done with boats is rowboat on a river which is much less complicated
for your question (and i'll put it under a cut because it contains slight/vague spoilers):
at the base isn't too much. mostly just need to tick off some things (getting fresh water, cleaning up a bit, some conversations) the content of the conversation i want to happen here will be me trying to expand on fit's character more. i want to expand on things that are a bit more specific to him outside of just the queerness. there are a few things i have in mind to touch on but only one of them will be coming up in this next chapter--which i've already started now \o/
that being said, i judge chapter length based on approximate word count + whether the ideas i wanted to address are finished. if i feel like the word count is under what i'm aiming for i'll add something else (this hasn't really happened yet but i keep it in mind) so maybe more stuff will come up at the end of the chapter i'll have to see how i'm feeling
i don't mind mentioning this because it was kind of in the list that happened in chapter three but next thing to check off is going mining + setting up their new base. not sure whether it'll happen in this chapter coming up or the next but there will be some talk of fit and pac's prosthetics. on a wider scale: mike is still kind of emotionally regaining strength after everything that happened in the last chapter so he'll be taking a bit of a backseat for the moment. he'll still be doing stuff, just not taking centre stage as much
i have a lot of ideas both my own and from prompts that i'm working through (which is good because this is supposed to be a slowburn lol) so i won't go into all of them here but i hope this little bit interests you \o/

Leverage Redemption Log: The Fractured Job
Someone is moving house, puts a trophy in a box. Scouts are coming so the kid might get a scholarship for the sportsballs. Town is collapsing economically.
Fracking, (the water is flammable) --- Sophie is worried their actions could have collateral damage. She's still feeling guilty about Arthur.
Hardisons in space. (get the actor a greenscreen and he can do cameo's without burdaining his packed schedule too much or needing to be physically present. God are they lucky its the hacker whose career took off. I dont think they could've done this stuff if it'd been Elliot)
Elliot is on break. He's going to try and connect with his dad. (presumably lives in Frackingville).
--- Elliot on the road, listening to the radi-OH SHIT ITS A PARKER "Im here for emotional support" "Im here to ensure she gets the concept" 10/10 gag.
Elliot comes to his hometown and barely has the time to nostalgia about the hardware store before he has to intervene in some goon-on-guy violence.
Parker and Elliot punch some people while Breanna loads Checkov's Pepperspray Pipet. Interracial family representation. --- The goons are not proficient in disguise. Huh, i didnt know fracking caused earthquakes. (that reads sarcastic/suspicious of future plottwists. It isnt, i dont live in a country that has fracking so all I know about it is through cultural osmosis from american exported media)
Oh i thought Breanna meant "we should give these two some alone time" not "We've got a client". (I thought "we've got a client" was obvious enough it didnt need saying).
Elliot looking longingly at the siblings that have lived an entire life without him. --- Yup of course Harry knows how hard it is to prove the direct causality from "fracking rig" to "cancerous growths" in a legal setting.
Sophie is afraid of hurting Elliot's relationship with his dad through this.
--- Breanna and Dad talking bout the future.
Parker is worried that Elliot might be dying, (sudden decision to connect with family, it would match the symptoms) Bugs in place, "we dont upload anything we use a closed system" huh, guys actually smart enough to see through a con... until you double down with a second-layer. --- Meanwhile at the Oklahoma State Capital, Harry and Sophie are ready to deal with a probably-crooked politician. (as if there is another kind)
Time for an interview, show him the obvious microphone so we can make him think he's "safe" when its taken from play (leaving him unaware of a second, tinier microphone)
AG is going back home, (make him see the damage itself rather then the probably faked data. If he's not corrupt that'll be enough. If he is corrupt... well we'll know exactly where he is) --- Breakfast. The good thing about politicians locked away from their home for ages is that they're so unfamiliar with their own home they're extremely unlikely to notice any minor changes as a result of you bugging their house.
Elliot is staying to get that family talk in (and protect his dad from hired goons) Dad is still somewhat standoffish, but he's accepted the breakfast.
Well, he might not actually be crooked after all. A bit suspiciously defensive of the "wait for the reports" policy but correlation VS causation is a thing and its actually good for an AG not to let anecdotal evidence steer him too much so lets hope. --- Yeah he's crooked. Of course he is. Hope is a lie like always.
So yeah not only is he crooked, he's the real mastermind what the state actually prosecutes it means you bribe one and you are out and clear.
But he still wants that interview with Harry and Sophie, so that means we can literally put a camera in his face and he'd go with whatever script we feed him.
Father and Son heart-to-heart. --- We have a keycard and we're off to the rig. Dad is off to violate a restraining order.
reduced guards, more people for Elliot to punch. --- Oh we put him in front of a camera, on a stage and everything. Live broadcast as he boasts of his victory?
this robot bodies joke is getting a bit long in the tooth... 7 seasons and a timeskip's worth of buildup to that hug. "try to stay out of trouble"

dadzawa a/b/o
Scenting can sometimes happen for dominance, it means the submissive has to smell like their 'dom'
Or comfort, the scent of a loved one makes them calm. Healthy relationships + parents scent this way
But kats was shopping with his pack and izuku was restless
"Hes still not back?" "Nope, none of them are" hizashi says as he takes a sip of his energy drink
"Hn! Well! I'll go find him!" "He took the car and youre not allowed to go out, youre in pre-heat, all you need is his scent okay?" the alpha tries to ease his nerves
"I dont want kacchans clothes I want him! The nest wont feel right without /him/" the omega cried out
"Nope!" "AAA youre not helping!"
"He /cant/ help, midoriya. Hes an alpha, the best his mind can do is give you a pat on the back" aizawa tiredly says
"I-I help you tons dont lie to that child!" "Lying would mean there is no truth behind my words" he glares "Which there isnt!"
The black hair rolls his eyes "Sure, love" "YOURE LYING JUST NOW WITH THAT-"
"izuku" aizawa calls out and the omega sniffles "h-hm?"
"Im not your alpha but as your parental figure, would you like me to scent you in the meantime?"
Ever since izuku has been disowned by inko the omega has been using aizawa and hizashi as his 'caretakers'
All omegas needed one but sadly all might's scent glands are messed up and he passes as a beta
"Hm.." the green hair thought about it, nbervously looking at the door
"But..its your birthday and..you have to go out with.."
"Its fine pup! I dont mind!" the blond smiles "A birthday is just a day, your mental health isnt-" "But its your birthday" izuku repeats
"And I wouldn't I be happy if you are happy? How do you think I would feel by worrying if I left you?"
Izuku gives in and grasps aizawa by his shirt
"Nest?" he asks, sheepishly "I'll be in charge of looking after everything!" Hizashi says, taking the role of looking out
Something alphas used to when looking out for their omega and child But izuku was too nervous to notice
"Come on, at least for once Yamada didint forget to scent things" "I never forget!"
"Sure, love" he repeats as he takes izukus small hand and guides him to the elevator
"YOURE DOING IT AGAIN"
**
Aizawa made sure to fix a couple of things before letting izuku enter, he placed a few of midnights thing at the bottom and one of all mights shirt to the side
Even if the man cant let out strong enough pheromones to scent when he wants things he wore still smelled like him
"Done"
The moment he said those words izuku dived in Or tried to, he really made sure to not move anything as he entered, common curtsey for the omega making the nest
He curled up at the corner where aizawa covered the way to get to him, again in a way of protection
The smaller omega was letting our purrs and happy scents
'Happy! Pack! Nest!'
While aizawas was more of 'Pup, nest, Alpha keeping them safe'
He scented izuku with his wrist before humming, he already saw izuku as his child, not just a student
But he doesnt know when he would be ready to tell him that
the way he needs to know where izuku is at all costs, that he was eating right, that his scent wasnt off, it wasnt things youd worry with your students
And yes he has bared his fangs silently when bakugo raised his voice /too/ loudly at his pup, the blond knows
He /knows/
The door slams open making izuku flinch and the dark hair omega glared at anyone who-
Oh, katsuki
"Shit-sorry shitty hair saw this new store and-" When bakugo took a step inside he quickly stepped back at the pheromones the older omega giving him as a warning
"ah-right-Can I go in? I want to see deku"
Better, dont these brats know their manners?
"You may, shoes off" "Right, im removing my hearing aids too"
Aizawa made space for katsuki to enter deeper and the alpha instantly hugged izuku, letting out his pheromones
Izuku was already fast asleep by the time katsuki got to him, he found too much comfort in everyone's pheromones and soft nest
It really showed how experienced aizawa was with making them
"I got you a few presents" bakugo whispers "Are you bribing me?"
The blond snorts as he holds izuku tighter
"Bribing you so I get to keep seeing him? What timeline is this?" "Is the time you shut it so he can sleep"
"Ah" bakugo huffs "But-" "katsuki" he warns
"He thinks of you as his dam and hizashi as his sire, okay? He says it by accident when speaking about you guys" "He speaks about us?"
The alpha gives him his annoying grin "All the time, just trust me okay?It would be a good bday gift for you to have him officially as your pup"
"..I'll think about it"
"Hurry before you turn into ashes, old man" "Youre running 7 laps tomorrow"
The dark hair omega closes his eyes, a small chuckle came out when he heard the younger alpha curse under his breath
"But thank you Katsuki" "Oh? So the bribing worked?"
"..eight"
The end, please follow me on twitter

my love overflows. there's nothing i can do about it. i rarely love, but when i do, i give it my all. my love overflows, and there's no container big enough to store it all without losing drops of it. perhaps the world isnt big enough. the world isnt fair enough. my love overflows, and i dont know what it is like to be the one feeling my love. i dont know if my love feels like a gentle swish of the air in your hair, a cool splash of water on a hot summer day, the taste of melting chocolate on your tongue, and candies and sugar and everything soft, sweet, and good. or if it feels like a hand clutching your throat till you cant breathe anymore.. till all you want is to get freed from it, like shackles holding you behind, if it feels like it chases behind you every time you break into a run, like grey skies and clustered spaces.
my love overflows. there's nothing i can do about it. my love overflows, and i'm afraid that's where i'll drown.

man it is SO nice to find a solution to a really shit problem only for 50 other problems to happen
i am completely alone with zero support in a house i hate, doing as much housework as possible so it can be manageable both in day to day life and so its not hard to just leave when i move, and i still am not getting any help getting rid of the stuff.
i have almost no money and i have to pay to take the train to buy food or neccessities and i was dumb enough to not send a letter sooner so i dont know if ill get my money until after christmas or not, i havent bought more than one christmas gift either cus im fucking broke, and i dont feel anywhere in my body that i want to spend time making something for anyone. my brother still isnt done paying me my money back and literally hasnt talked to me since last time he asked for money, my dad hasnt fucking talked to me in ages and the one time he called in summer it was out of boredom to ask when i was gonna visit them, none of my extended relatives talk to me at all so what the fuck is the point there, and my mom is just. a fucking bitch.
i had her removed as a legal guardian, not even on purpose initially but because folkenemnda or whoever sent her a letter before i was able to have a meeting, so she ofc got fucking offended and now has decided sve cant be involved in anything. she cant call electricians, she cant help fix the house, its "too difficult" for her to have to talk to me or my new legal guardian instead of just buying stuff right away, and she told ME to get a new phone service provider. i had to fix that myself. on top of her being, once again, a useless bitch. dont touch my stuff i say, its fucking embarrassing that you have dirty laundry she implies while moving all my furniture around and doing shit to my kitchen while refusing to acknowledge its my house but still treating it like her own, and not fixing the internet again after they unplugged it.
so i have no access to internet besides my last 150 mb of phone data unless i call some guy to fix it, but they wont be here until next year most likely so its pretty much pointless, and if i buy phone data i have to pay. so if i cant get it fixed ill be literally alone for two weeks straight with no people at all around me and noone i can talk to on the internet. except for fucking. christmas. idk about new years eve. and i dont even fucking like my family, i dont even want to spend time with them, they treat me like shit.
the ac doesnt work since mom got the electricians to look at everything but never actually hired anyone to fix shit and now is completely uncooperative. and after they checked the fireplace in that control like two years ago im not allowed to use it, and mom never actually got that fixed either even though shes been in charge of absolutely everything since forever.
plus both heaters downstairs are set to 27c or max and it still is only like 17 or 19 or so, i have an entire room in the house i straight up cant use cus theres no power and no light and 17c in there and its full of stuff i asked mom to take to the thrift store for me 6 months ago. also i cant leave either heater on if im boiling water or washing dishes cus that overloads the entire fucking thing.
and its just like so much bullshit all at once and ive been spacing out for like 2 hours while writing this cus i get so frustrated and upset and angry and sad. its not fucking fair that my parents literally dont care about me, yet im expected to be fucking sociable and call and visit them and reach out. they didnt reach out to me or support me at all when i was a kid, or a teenager, or an adult, why the fuck would i want to deal with them. but if i dont go to visit them on christmas or i point out that hey. youre not really being fair or nice to me at all, hell breaks loose cus i should be more than happy with the crumbs they give me, as if theyre the best people in the world for fucking. calling once every six months or letting me celebrate a holiday with them.
like. im stuck here for 2 weeks, im broke as shit, no connection to the outside world once i use all my data, i very much am still mentally ill even if im better than before i went inpatient. but once i go back ill have to go back to work and i dont have a psychiatrist to talk to and im not on any meds i think i might need and i havent been tested for anything yet, i havent been had driving practice yet, i can barely talk to my support contact, i need a lot more help than i am being given, im not getting the help i ask for when i do ask for it, and thats on top of shit parents and a shit house and two cats i love but am not sure i can keep given the whole thing where im gone for months at a time. and i just. how the fuck am i supposed to be able to keep a job or ever move out or make friends properly or keep a new apartment or house or be mentally stable. its so much bullshit all at once wtf

Holiday Finale: the Ghost and Molly McGee: Festival of Lights and Saving Christmas Review (comissioned by Weird Kev 27
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Merry Christmas Eve all you happy people! We're to the end of our christmas celebrations for the year but before I close up shop for a day or two, we have one last present to unwrap courtsey of Kev: Last year's holiday double feature from the Ghost and MollyMcGee
TGAMM isn't a show i've talked about yet on this blog, but no time like the present, as it's an excellent show. Just watching these eps I often found myself pausing as the animation is just all sorts of fluid and expressive. That's the standard for Disney at it's best granted but this show just has it's own bouncy style all it's own.
The premise is simple: An overly chipper 12 year old named Molly McGee moves to the failing town of Brighton with her family, finally finding a "forever home" after moving around a bunch. She ends up best friends with Scratch, a cynical , lazy and often hungry ghost who the rest of the ghost community laughs at, who makes the mistake of cursing her with "never leaving her"… and soon despite himself ends up genuinely enjoying this friendship while trying to ballnce that with his job of making people miserable.. not a great thing when his best friend is determiend to make everyone's lives better. The show is a fun comedy, helped by the fact it's leads are two of my faviorite voice actors, Ashly Burch of OK KO and Final Space Fame and Dana Synder of Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Venture Bros, Jellystone and tons of other stuff fame. It was nice to see Ashly get a lead roll and Dana get a lead roll agai, so I was already on board but the show is enjoyable, inclusive, and fairly funny, so I liked it. I'm horribly behind on season 1b, but i'll get to it before the years out. The show made my top 20 episodes list last year and for good reason, so it's nice to have at least one more season of it.
So that brings us to today's review: last year they did a holiday special but nicely, we got a holiday treat as Ghost and Molly McGee is the first show i've seen in a while to do a full on Hannukah special!
Tumblr media
Yeah while i'm not Jewish myself, i've had a fondness for shows helping my dumb ass learn more about a holiday, having grown up with Rugrats Passover and Hannukah specials. It's just nice to help kids learn there are more holidays than christmas and what exactly goes on in those holidays, and spoilers this won't be the last special that isnt' Christmas. And I do love Christmas, I just feel other holidays deserve love too especailly with all this war on chistmas bullshit> The world is wide enough for all holidays and I shoudln't have ot say that but given it comes up every year.. yeah , I do. So put on your yammukah as we have both a happy happy hannukah and a merry christmas in the same episode with Festival of Lights and Saving Christmas.
Tumblr media
Festival of Lights: It's the final night of Hannukah, and the McGees are visting Book Marks the Spot, the Stein-Torres' bookstore. As for that name, i'm.. not a fan? I like the store itself, as someone who loves little independent book stores and used to work at one, in fact that's where I got my complete set of TinTin and first edition of the Colour of Magic among many other treasures due to having an insane amount of credit form working there. It's just the name is…
Tumblr media
Like I get it's a pun on both x marks the spot and Bookmarks, but it just dosen't work. Like… the store isn't pirate themed. I mean books are a treasure, but if you wanted a piratey name that didn't necesarily require a theme just call it hidden treasure books or something. Not everything has to be a pun. It's ran by Libby's mom Leah, who weirdly isn't named on the episode itself but is on the actual wiki page for her. I assume this is a Boonchuy Parents situation where they were named later via word of god because you can't just.. mention that in episode? Please? Make my job easier?
For those new here Libby is Molly's Best friend/probable love intrest, a somehwat shy girl Molly's age who loves beat poetry and clearly molly. Look i've never been subtle in my shipping, i'm not starting now.. though if your new then welcome to the thunderdome bitches! Seroiusly though the two just play off each other really well, are really sweet together, and the list making episode where Molly has to tell Libby.. comes off entirely romantic in Molly's not wanting to loose libby. Could be intentional, could be untetional, we've still got a season to go.
Molly tries to be supportive.. though mostly she just googled hannukah and readas she goes while Libby looks on apprceatively. Scratch is also there but he was dragged there, like the surly teenage sons the McGees never asked for but welcomed into their home anyway since he was there first and having a ghost meant they could get some money back.
Things quickly take a turn though as the lights go out. The good news is that Mrs. Stein Torres has a generator and that Chucky was busy chainsawing someone in half this holiday season, so their safe. The bad news is that it only has an hour of fuel, though people still flock to the store for warmth and Mrs. Stein Torres is happy to have them. MST is played by the incomparable Pamela Adlon aka…
Tumblr media
Though Bobby is, rightfully, her most famous roll and one of her best, Adlon has a rather long and storied career in voice acting: She's voiced Dewey Duck (Quack Pack), Spenelli (Where I first met her), Milo Oblong, Brigette Murphy, and Dr. Joanne on the now cancelled Tuca and Bertie. In addition to that she wrote and starred in the amazing FX Comedy Better Things which I highly recommend and is a talented and wonderful person.
If your familiar with the story of Hannukah you likely know where this is going: As with the oil in the temple under siege lasted 8 days instead of one, giving us 8 nights of Hannukah, the generator will last for 8 hours, with a story for each hour.
Hour 1: Scratch is ready to just run out until he finds out Hannukah involves foods in fried oil. Scratch then sings a whole musical number about fried food while Libby tries in vain to get him to use the actual names. still it's adorable, esecially to see him hang out with Libby for a change, as well as relatable since I too will stuff my face iwth anything fried.
Hour Two: The kids and Scratc h play Dreidel. I still don't quite know how it works, but it's fun to watch the kids all loose it as they all loose, cumilating in Libby winning the gelt and Scratch being pissed off to find it was choclate. Are we sure Scratch isn't just my ghost sent backwards in time and through space? Are we positve on that?
Hour Three: Libby has a spelling bee and asks the McGees to spell Hannukah, which has 16 diffrent spellings. Neat to know, one of the weaker segments
Hour Four: We then get one of the stronger ones, as Libby introuces the Miracle Box, a box where you put in a miracle that happened to you this year. It's a really sweet concept and one i'd love to try. We get the jokes you'd expect: Sharon's miracle is the van is still running, while Darryl's.. is that he didn't get caught. ("It's best you don't know"), while we get some sweet one: Molly's is natural meeting scratch, Libby's Mom's is Libby (She apparently does this every year), and Scratch's, which he spends the segement trying desperattley to not have read aloud as he wasn't aware of that part is the entirely sweet "I used to haunt a house, now I haunt a home
Tumblr media
Everyone present finds it sweet while Scratch is embarassed.. but i'ts also a nice sign of just how far his character has come in only half a season. While he only admitted it when he didn't think anyone else would eve rknow, it's still sweet to see him accept that this is his family now.. and his life is better fo rit.
Hour Five: A truly excellent bit of slam poetry by LIbby about the tale of Hannukah. Also a nice call back to her talent for it that was revealed earlier in the season> This show has a really strong continuity and I love it for it.
Hour Six: Scratch eats too many Latkes… methinks they didn't have enough time for another segment, but given how serious the segements before and after this one are, it's fair enough.
Hour Seven: We get a really nice, if suprisingly somber segment as Leah talks with Abby, a local baker played by Eden Rigel, sister of Sam "Pull on My Motherfuckin Beads" Rigel. Eden's best known for voicing Boscha on the Owl House. Abby is also Jewish but has admitely not practiced her faith in some time, but seeing the Stein-Torres Menorah reminds her of it and Leah warmly welcomes her to it… and to her family history. As it turns out their Menorah was the only thing her grandparents took with them when they fled Germany from the Nazi's. The show dosen't come right out and say that.. but anyone familiar with history, paticuarlly Krystalnacht, can spot the obvious. It's done painfully well with nice subtly: we only see her great grandparents fleeing with the menorah while a brick's thrown through the window and there's a mob of angry noice.. just enough to get past Disney's censors, but more than enough to get the point across. We also see them as they immigrate, have a son (Leah's father and LIbby's grandfather) and we see a Young Leah light the menorah for the first time> This Menorah is their family legacy an din just two mintues of screentime we see what that legacy means. It's an utterly beautiful piece of animation, just two minutes to show the pride in their history and what they escaped to get there. Hour Eight: The power finally goes out.. only for power everywhere to kick on. Libby proclaims it a Hannukah miracle, Scratch eats even more latke's and this slam dunk of an episode ends.
Seriously this episode is beauitful, a true masterpiece having both hilariaty and a lot of heart. Only the spelling bee bit didn't qutie work for me. it's a nice educational piece that helps tell the gentiles like myself about the holiday. I may still not get how Dredl works, but I feel warm having watched this.
Tumblr media
Saving Christmas:
This being a two shorts show we have a traditional Christmas Specail to follow things up. It's the annual Snowflake Celebration, with the Mayor, voiced by my boy Patton Oswalt and looking just like him, being happy they'll crush perfectborg.. only for the tree to fall apart then catch fire. The Celebration is in ruins and so it seems is Brighton's christmas so Molly decides to find a Donor. Now who in town his rich and has lots of money?
Tumblr media
…. okay maybe save him as plan B. For Plan A Molly seeks out Mr. Davenport, played by Thomas Lennon of Reno 911 and Jellystone fame, whose shockingly shot up as a voice actor in the past few years, taking on a lot of rolls. And given his distinctive southren voice, great comedic timing and general awesomeness i'm on board.
Mr. Davenport is the father of Andrea, Molly's rival and general mean girl sterotype. That said.. Andrea is actually on her side for once: Since the festival has a Snowflake Queen Andrea wants the part and as we'll learn it turns out it's not just for the attention or the viewcount as it normally would be for her and frankly this family in general: while the social media attention is nice, she wants to do it to honor her mom.
Mr. Davenport though.. is a.. what's the term for it this time of year… a holly jolly dickhead. Yeah tha'ts it. Think I nailed that. He says it's a time for making money, that giving someone something for free is against his nature and his daughter can jsut photoshop that bitch.
So in the face of such Scoogey opposition, Molly decides to pull a christmas carol.. my third reviewed this year. I did not plan for this when I set the schedule, as I didn't think about Last Christmas! Being a take on it and assume this one was only a take on it for the last act as I hadn't seen this episode till now (I only watched Festival of Lights last year). But no Molly's entire plan is to Christmas Carol the spirit of charity into this bastard.
Scratch agrees because it's bound to be hilarious and he's right: The next few minutes are just Mr. Davenport hilariously not at all getting the points Molly tries to make and Thomas Lennon's delivery is perfect: showing him his past and how his dad wasn't a good father (with Pete and Darryl playing the parts and both ilariously dressing up for the 1880s instead of 1980s.. then just throwing in rad slang to try and compesnte), that his dad was a great buisnessman, showing him the McGees house just has him grouse about how poor they are instea dof how loving they are, and attempting to show his store closed.. dosen't work because it's an ally and Scratch flying him around dosen't scare him so much as make him want more.
While all of this is funny and a nice subversion of the Scrooge story, as well as a well done one: Molly tried to simply use a full bullet points.. not getting how each stop on the Ghost's journey was pointed: Showing him Fezzywig was to both set up belle and to show Scrooge what he could be, his failed romance with Belle reminded him what his greed already cost him, Fred showed him his nephew still love dhim even as he mocked him, the cratchets shoewd him both true kindess and the cost of his greed, and the future hammered both parts home. Each part was aimed carefully at the target. Molly simply didn't know mr. davenport well enough to actually effect him in any way.
The results though.. are terribly sad. Molly has no christmas spirit left, being utterly defeated and not relaly planning to celebrate tommorow. She coudln't save christmas, so the joy that's usually at the center of her is gone.. and given up to this point we've only seen molly this low when she nearly lost Libby, it's painful to see. We've seen her desperate… but we've never seen her out and out give up.
Scratch is naturally pissed off as hell. Not only did someone break Molly.. but on Christmas. So he decides if Mr. davenport is going to be stubborn about this, he's going to get it the hard way. The hard way.. dosen't quite work as just tossing him around only makes him Giddy. Thankfully, Scratch DOES find something that FINALLY gets through this dickhead's thick skull: Andrea, sadly starring at a picutre of her mom, putting the princess dress away and crying her eyes out. Which made me tear up just THINKING about it and finally gets Mr. Davenport to see that ther'es more to christmas. He agrees to fund the festival as you'd expect.
The ending as a result is super sweet, as Molly awakes to find the day saved, the town sings a song, Andrea gets her moment she wanted.. and Mr. Davenport sees you can use money to make merry.. and sometimes.. that's the real magic. Using what you have to help someone else. He also gets a fuckton of social media views from it, and without that being WHY he did it. Karma does work apparently! Maybe it's just if your rich but either way it's a sweet sendoff.
While it had one hell of a tough act to follow, Saving Christmas is a nice sweet christmas special. It's also really damn funny, clever and the ending is genuinely sweet. It's a good time and worth sticking around for after Festival of Lights. While the former is clearly the main attraction here and the better of the two by a mile, Saving Christmas is still a fun take on a christmas Carol and Gives Thomas Lennon a chance to flex his comedic chops. And both are worth making merry over. Have a wonderful christmas time, a happy hannukah and thanks for reading. I'll see you in a few days for the last few reviews of the year.

resils are extremely strange creatures
they evolved from mushrooms into a humanoid lump.
they had no hair, no bones, they wwere very alien
then they were modified to be cuter, and more humanoid
they were given hair. and they seperately used it to convey magical element.
they have no separate sexes. only C R E A T U R E
despite that they need two individuals to reproduce
and also their reproductive organs double as chemical communication centers (?)
lets skip 25000 years into the future
they still have hair although it isnt always made of. hair. its sometimes made of leaves
well its similar to hair and leaves n stuff.
they have several sexes now. each subspecies has its own set. they can reproduce with any other and also interspecies.
interspecies relationships are frowned upon in most arms, unfortunately. i was abandoned as a mere larva because i was a mixed species.
some have fully-functional wings. if you want, you can have them too, you just need to pick exactly what you want and where, and let the medbay (built into most ships) print and attach them.
they arent born with exoskeletons (in rare cases where they do have exoskeletons, it results in injury later in life and is removed) but can map their body inside and out and most printer systems will be able to print the individual an exoskeleton. light, durable, and protective!
they have computers that are the size of radios and have enough power to simulate everything on a trip and chart a course.
they have slightly less intelligence of a human. but they have 5 brains
they only use 3 of the 5 brains at a time. the other 2 are basically harchives of the individual's memory. you know, in case their limb that stores memory gets chopped off.
most of all their insides are liquid. it flows. if you cut them open, they spill. like an egg
their limbs will regrow it'll just hurt really bad, and take a while. so usually they just print a new limb and attach it in the medbay.
(god fucking damnit leave me ALONE memories)
they have pet dragons!!! and the dragons are dragonflies!! and they are ADORABLE w
what has this post turned into. anyway
they can consume almost anything. including stones n stuff
except!!!!!! SOME substances
they dont have an end to their digestive track. well they do, but they have no waste. anything that would be waste gets thrown into a special organ that turns it all into maji crystals.
ummmmmm
they eat food for energy. BUT!!!! they ALSO photosynthesize! they can pick one or the other depending on the enviroment!
if they live in a particularly sunny planet and their family line has all lived on this planet, when they journey into space they can eat food that was canned centuries in the past

mom is always wretched to me so this isnt a news report
firstly im in the living room working on stuff cause theres a table in there big enough for me to work without feeling cramped, i think a reasonable person would just let me have this table in my room tbh but its nothing ive brought up ever, my brother has a MASSIVE desk he never uses as a desk i dont think he knows thats what it is and uses it as like a tv stuff and an everything drawers and my mom also has a massive table she never uses as a work space, its just something she shoves everything in with the top like a display mantel, then shes like Oh I Would Make Art If Only I Had Your Bedroom/The Shed Completely To Myself and im like your bedroom is literally bigger than my room and the shed likely combined? she greets me with a confused offended sounding hello? to my good morning! (she later greets my brother with cheering like literal cheering this is how it is 99.9% of mornings)
then she proceeded to walk across the house in the kitchen and is having this conversation with me and im like i cant do this with you it strains my voice and im working right now (it was also like trap engage conversation about the carrot box cake mix thing she made for the potluck that she didnt go to which made me really sad for her and i think she noticed) she was also yelling about how i was making a mess of the living room when i was like at a single table with some papers and drawing supplies, the topic was irrelevent as it always is, when she came into the other room she picked some of my papers up off the table and pointed on a mark and was yelling at me about that, the mark is literally a year old and its like she could seal the table, sand it and all that we could have a table cloth if she is so concerned but she doesnt do any of those things, its also something she trash picked, and i was like how many times do you need me to apologize for that and she was like oh its not new and i was like yeah im constantly pouring nail polish remover on the table (its a stain smaller than a quarter that lifted up some stain)
and she like stomped away and was quiet for a bit, thats when my brother woke up, she came back then and said in a softer voice that she was going to do the laundry today (she refuses to get a washing machine or dryer for the house even though we're in a suburban house that she owns hgfhfg) and then the whole my brother wakes up and she screams and makes all kinds of wild joy sounds, i say good morning to him and he basically grunts a response, he brings out his laundry for her to do and during this shes agreed to take a covid test cause apart of her cross house thing was she had a fever, she doesnt have covid or so she says anyway, at one point she leaned over me and asked what i was doing and i was like oh making some stuff for a thing, it was nice that she asked but she burnt away just any nice ness from like all of that plus a life time, also this all has happened in like a span of an hour maybe less its just a whirl wind while she tries out every possible avenue of reaction i guess?
then i went to sleep and woke up, after being like hi hello about that i asked her how she was feeling and she said okay and i was like did you get medicine? and she went off on this like def pre-planned mentally rehearsed thing that she could Not wait to unleash on me
she was like no, its so sad the saddest thing in the whole world that when im sick you had me a list of medicine to get for you and i was like ??? the list was for you, you were literally going to the store, i even put little notes about the medicine for you? (like this one is a flavor you like this one feels this way on the throat etc like why would i need to do that for me fghdhfgdh) and she was like Enough Stop Talking To Me You've Done Enough Damage and i was like what are you talking about hggfdgfd and went on to make myself food, she came back like maybe five mins later and was all smiles again but i was wearing a mask so her face dropped like gdfgfd???
oh and then i got the mail which she then threw away and i had to pull out of the trash cause some of it was my brothers like bank statements and stuff???
