#your daily dose of randomness with dia

[yoonia]

Working from home today. Left my laptop open with my drawing program, writing program, and both of my discord accounts all on display because I've been multitasking the whole day and I was in a rush to grab some food.

My kittens got in and started playing (read: play fight) on top of my working desk. Came back to find that they have somehow pasted three paragraphs of A Christmas Fix WIP from my draft that I was editing before I left the room straight onto my WORK DISCORD.

tldr: kittens decided to create mischief by spoiling a fanfic I was working on to my coworkers while I was gone from the room.

Hari ini luar biasa banget...

Full-day di sekolah melototin laptop buat nyicil nilai rapor dan rekap absen 1 semester, trus sorenya langsung marathon ngajar online sambil berantem sama sinyal dan teriak-teriak karena anaknya antara budeg atau emang sengaja ga jawab aja... Ditambah banyak berita-berita ga enak yang bikin ruwet pikiran aja... Kenapa hari ini rasanya beda aja bebannya, apakah tertumpuk selama 1 pekan trus baru kerasa sekarang apa gimana... Padahal kerjanya ga over tapi I feel like overwhelmed.

Deket magrib udah mau "hhhhhh" aja rasanya sampe heran sendiri kenapa lemah banget ini baru segini doang...harusnya udah biasa ga sih....

Trus tiba-tiba muncul notif pas banget aku mau beranjak habis ngajar online tea:

Ya meskipun aing tau dia ngomong out of context tapi TETEP AJA I feel like he consoled me after one rough day. Sugohesoo, you did well today, me.

✨If he said today was great then that's it. No one, absolutely no one can tell me otherwise.✨

MAU NANGIS BANGET SAYANG KAMU BANYAK-BANYAK.

Thank you for being my daily dose of happiness. I hope today was great for you too.

For the side note I'm truly aware that this account will soon turn to a fangirling account but since nobody will complain then let it be.

And for my future self, if you read it now please remember that if you could find your own comfort in a simplest thing today (for example: a random tweet from a guy on Twitter) then you can always secure your comfort in every little ways possible.

Prompt: harley finds out red hood was a robin and he expects her to ask him what batman's secret id is. but she wants to know random/mundane things like what he eats for breakfast. does he watch reality tv. come on hood these are important questions.

And we’re off! Starting off with a great prompt from a wonderful person and I’ve got just the idea! FYI this is early Hood in Gotham, before he confronts the Bats.

There was always something about the Hood that stuck out at her, from the very moment he first appeared. Mistah J had complained about the schmuck stealing his old gig, Penguin had griped about another vigilante mucking in business around causing trouble and, of course, old Maskie sure had the hardest time of them all. But there was just something about the guy that had seemed familiar, something nagging at the back of her brain that should couldn’t lay a finger on.

She’s at the museum, going after this pretty necklace she saw advertised on the news. She decided to go solo tonight, Ivy was having some special times with her planets and Kitty cat was leaning towards the right side of the law this week. Fine, she didn’t need anyone, she tells herself as she brings the mallet over her head to smash the case. Before she could finish her swing, a disc knocks it out of her hands and send it flying across the room, then again. She looks up and expects to see the Bat or one of his little birdies and instead catches the reflection of the moon glinting off a red helmet on the window sill above her.

“You know the Dias brothers were going to hit this museum tonight too,” He begins casually through the modulated helmet. “They haven’t been complying with my rules about selling drugs to kids so I thought I’d take them out during their robbery.” He shrugs, “I’m not so evil that I’d kill them in their beds, at least I can justify killing them when they’re breaking the law.”

Harley smiles broadly, keeping her face neutral as she takes one careful step backwards. For all his calm, his body language radiates confidence and strength and with his rapidly growing reputation to violently escalate the situation, Hood could very easily make a mess of her.

“And where do you think you’re going?” He growls out as he jumps down to confront her. “We were just getting acquainted cause you see, I knew your boss once, a long time ago, long before your pretty face came around.” She takes another few steps back towards her mallet as he slowly, menacingly comes towards her. “He hurt me bad, real bad, and I’ve never quite forgotten it. I’ve been waiting for the right time and opportunity to repay him and it occurs to me that maybe in that shriveled husk he calls a heart, there might be a spark of affection for you.” He reaches out to grab her arm but instead she ducks under and races towards her mallet. She grabs it deftly and throws it over her shoulder like a baseball bat, her face pinched and serious. Every woman knows when it’s time to drop the act and either get real or real dead.

“You back off buster, I don’t run with Mistah J no more so whatever beef you got with him stays with him. Now I’ve been able to smack Bats with this thing and I can tell you if it’s enough to take them down, it’ll sure get you too.” She’s prepared to fight tooth and nail if he takes one step closer but, to her surprise, he chuckles lightly and relaxes his predatory stance and holds up his hands in surrender.

“Holy female empowerment Batman,” he teases lightly as a lightbulb goes off in the back of her head but she’s still too pumped up on fear and aggression to acknowledge it. “I do got a bone to pick with your boss, sure, but you’re just as much a victim as I was so I’m not continue his work and hurt you. I heard you’d cut ties with that louse, just thought I’d confirm for myself.” His arms lower, “now off you get, the Dias brothers will be here any minute and I don’t need you setting off alarms and scaring them away before I get in my daily dose of butt-kicking.”

Again, the familiarity overwhelms her as she finally places where she knows the Hood from. And wow, how about dem apples? She relaxes her guard, loosening her mallet so it bounces against the ground. Realistically, her revelation should only make her more cautious but for some reason it relaxes her. No matter how out of line he’s acting, Bats will always be Bats.

“You’re Robin!” She says excitedly, pointing at him, knowing she’s right when he tenses at the obviously familiar title. “The second one, right? The one Mistah J-” his fists tightens and she shuts her mouth quick as she can. She knows a thing or two about the invisible scars that man can leave. She leans forward on the handle of mallet, shaking her head at the incredible, impossible circumstances. Only in Gotham, right?

“Man you sure grew up kid, I used ta read about you in papers back when I was finishing up my doctorate.” She tilts her head to the side, “‘course you were a lot shorter and moral back then but I’m pleased to see you’ve learned to wear proper pants.” Hood growls again, but this time in annoyance and maybe a touch of embarrassment. Something tells her he wasn’t planning on making his Bat connections known. I guess that kinda thing does tend to sully one’s criminals reputation.

“So what happened to ya?” She asks in her neat, professional voice. “Why aren’t you back with Daddy? I know he’d be happy to see ya no matter what pants you’re wearing.” Hood aggressively begins ruffling his clothes and checking for his weapons, classic avoidance tactics. “You can tell me, like I said, I’m not dealing with the Joker anymore and I am a trained psychologist ya know. Maybe I can help. I know what it’s like to try and move past the bad things.”

“You don’t know anything,” he sneers, the venom visible through the voice modulator , “about what that man or that clown did to me. Batman took me into his home, gave me a shot and then left me in the-” Harley’s eyes lit up at the slipped information and grinned like a maniac.

“So wait you actually know the big Bat’s name? Ya weren’t just a part timer?” She hoots and spins around in a circle throwing her mallet. “Oh man, I gotta know, does he sleep in a real bed or does he hang upside down like a bat?” She puts a finger to her face and turns away from the vigilante to think even as she registers the confused disbelief in his body language. “Are there even any Bats at your place? Do you come home and there’s like a bajillion Bats flying all around and ya can’t get anything done.”

“'Gee Batman’,” she starts in a high mocking voice “’I sure wish I could practice my wicked kung-fu but there’s all these Bats in my face’” she turns around, acting out the other half of the conversation. “'Sorry old chum, but I need those Bats to fuel my grim, dark Bat powers’”. She concludes with a laugh. “What does a Batman even eat? Fruit? Insects? Blood from a virgin?” She spins around and claps her hands. “Oh! You’ve got to tell me about those green panties! What was the point of that? What was Nightwing think-” to absolutely no one’s surprise, the Red Hood is long gone.

She sniffs haughtily at the snuff and wanders over to pick up her mallet. She looks at it thoughtfully for a moment before bringing it down onto the case containing her necklace. The glass shatters and the alarms begin sounding but she pays it no mind as she grabs the jewel and runs. The Dias brothers won’t be hitting up the museum tonight, so much for Hood’s, Robin’s, carefully planned stake-out. But that’s what he gets for leaving a girl without any answers and she really wanted to know the story behind the green underwear.

I had a dream last night where I got wolves following me around and waiting for me while I went to the ATM in the middle of the night. Even weirder when I didn't feel so scared because I had my pet dogs with me. I don't have any pet dogs in real life. And they were Chihuahuas...protecting me from wolves.

I need to lay off all the werewolf stories I've been reading lately.

Had back to back work meetings and right before the last meeting was on, my brain almost felt like it's been fried. Went into the restroom in the middle of the long break to freshen up, stood in front of the mirror and realised how long my bangs had gotten so I just...cut it. With paper scissors.

Didn't think much about it until I came in on the last meeting. People kept giving me a double-take and it took me a moment to realise...

[yoonia]

Coming home to a mess because my kittens found the empty bag of kibbles that I threw out this morning in a hurry before leaving home

[yoonia]

I came home to find my cat Ozzie meowing while looking at the ground. I thought he was asking for food. or found food.

Nope, he caught a baby bird and was either trying to show me, or he wanted to give me his hunt as a gift and was sad because the bird died before I got to see it, or he was just confused. idk. Buried the poor bird and gave him snack. but that was...a fun experience.

[yoonia]

finally have a day off from work

expectation: get lots of rest, write a lot, maybe finish this one wip that I keep rereading for the past few days

reality: woke up with a headache, spent all morning cleaning, gave bath to all foster kittens, feeling super tired when it's barely past noon

[yoonia]

Tried to catch a quick nap before going to work cause I was up late last night, and these two cats slipped into my home from God knows where.

Got one out, thankfully, and I know she belongs to my neighbour so I'm sure she knows her way home. But the other one has locked himself in my storage room and is refusing to come out.

Listen...I have three cats already. THREE. You need to come out now before my cats think I'm keeping you...and I really need some sleep 😭😭😭

[yoonia]

After moving out of my old flat which was notoriously haunted, we just found out that the new place I've moved into might be just as troublesome.

Boyfriend has been away for two weeks so this has been the first weekend he's spending back home. Last night when we were sleeping, he heard a voice whispering to wake him up in the middle of the night. He thought it was me, except the voice came from his right and I was sleeping on his left side 🫠 He went back to sleep and heard it again from his left side this time whispering, "oy, wake up." Again, a female voice, but I was asleep. He ignored it, until he felt someone rubbing his thigh 🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠 it wasn't me. I was completely knocked out from meds. Then just now, he said that he already told me everything about it when I woke up near dawn. Lol, no I wasn't. Idk who he was talking to 💀💀💀

[yoonia]

On a not so fun note, a snake got into my home.

[yoonia]

Trying to write a smut fic with a kitten standing on my shoulder is hard....

[yoonia]

Me and tech guys fixing the roof on my client's home...

Tech: why are the tiles so broken? It's an old home, I know, but the roof tiles are new. Weather goes wild here or sumthin'?

Me: no, the owner broke them himself. He said he fell in while walking on them

Tech: what the hell was that bloke doing up here running?

Me: chasing a bird 😐

[yoonia]

Woken up too early cause a couple of wild weasels were fighting on the rooftop of my flat. I'm really scared of them, but I had to fight them off for the sake of my cats (this includes the strays that always come to my back porch asking for food) and now I'm dizzy 💀

[yoonia]

My cat during bath be like: 

“Where are u taking me hooman?” “Why am I in YOUR bathroom?” 

“What is th--water??? nuuuu.....!!!” 

“you are NOT going to-- unhand me peasant! how dare you make me WET?” 

“What is that soapy thing? why are you putting that on me? do not touchy touc--oh wait, that’s not so bad...” “yesss, that’s the spot...a bit lower...puurrrfect...” 

“why are you stopping...? no...no more water! stop it! stop it this instant!” “let me go before I BITE!!!” 

“this is monstrosity...a treason...I shall bury my claws into your---fuzzy towel???? GIVE ME YOUR FLESH THIS INSTANT!” 

“NOT THE BLOWER!!! NOT THE BLOWER!!! I SHALL NOT GO DOWN WITHOUT A FIGHT!!!” *swat swat swat* 

“oooh...snack!!” 

[yoonia]

Caught my cat trying to jump to next door’s balcony to steal my neighbour’s pet bird. Literally “caught” him as in he was mid flight on air on his high jump with his front legs already hanging off the railing. (our balconies are close to one another)

Told my boyfriend about it and all he said was, “he’s an orange cat. orange cats do crazy stuff like that. when he’s not causing any trouble, that’s when you need to worry.” 

well then...
