hello there headache!! why do you feel different from usual headaches to the point that I’m mildly nauseated and why are you here now!!! I am literally an hour away from leaving on a (semi-spontaneous and possibly ill-advised) four-mile hike with my dad and you’re definitely not going to make that easier!!!!
hike was…mostly fine, it really was a very pretty area, although bringing Hazy was a mistake because as usual the car ride was super stressful for her, and I think she enjoyed the actual hike (she never ran out of energy, that’s for sure) but having her pulling on the leash wasn’t great for my balance at particularly steep or uneven parts. also I twisted my knee and my hiking shoes may have given me the beginnings of blisters and now I am just…in pain. I’m going to be so stiff tomorrow.

People just starting to watch A:TLA for the first time: The bending is really cool, but couldn’t the waterbenders technically just bend the water inside of people? Like their blood? I’m pretty sure technically they could. Well I guess it’s a kids show so they probably won’t go into it haha.
People who have seen the show already and know what happens:
Forgive yourself for what you didn’t do today. Love yourself for what you managed to get done. Give yourself permission to try again later, tomorrow, next week, next month, next year. You don’t have to do it all now. You just need to forgive yourself and try again. You’ll get it done, someday. ❤
(I’m…still really not playing the game, I haven’t tried a match in ages, I’m just popping in long enough to pick up login rewards, but. I have my boy now and that’s what really matters)
let’s go with an IW fix-it that, stop me if you’ve heard this one before, I should have finished ages ago
Loki’s fingers twitch, and a faint line appears between his eyebrows, and then his eyes flutter open, blurry and tight around the edges with pain but alive.
hmm let’s go with another bit from the Whumptober fic I should’ve finished ages ago
The movement stops, at one point; Loki gradually realizes he is slumped on his knees, only a hand in his hair keeping him semi-upright, with no idea how long he has been there.
(at least during the free weekend, they had a Pride icon and photo frame free in the Atom shop–I have no idea if those are normally free or not, but either way I was thrilled to grab them. I mean I have the strong feeling that pre-War America was intensely heteronormative, and Vaults maybe even more so because a lot of them emphasized procreation pretty heavily, so as far as lore is concerned, “Vault Pride” is kiiiiinda unrealistic…but I appreciate the thought. also Adelaide is absolutely queer. like…look at her.)
Valyn Thul: Is this what real Organa soldiers look like, mum? How fierce!
I think. this spoiled noble kid. might be gay for my trooper
(my Republic Trooper specifically is pretty buff, but also all female troopers are voiced by Jennifer Hale, a.k.a. Commander Shepard, so this is an extremely understandable reaction)
Anakin: [dramatic and villainous] Join me, Master! I’ll give you one last chance! Obi-Wan: …fine. Anakin: I – [Dramatic John Williams Score cuts out] Wait, what? Obi-Wan: I said all right, then. [puts his cloak back on] Anakin: [mouth agape] Wh– no, Master, you – Obi-Wan: You offered, didn’t you? I mean if the Jedi Order and Republic are over, as you say, I suppose I’ve got to find employment somewhere. Anakin: [with gears visibly turning in his head] Well – but – it’s just. I’m talking about the Dark Side, Master, you know that, right? Obi-Wan: Yes. What else could you have possibly been talking about? Anakin: I…right, of course. So…you’re just, fine with becoming a Sith Lord, just like that. Obi-Wan: [smoothing out his sleeves] Hmm? I mean, I suppose, you know. Whatever you want to do. Anakin: That…this doesn’t make any sense. Obi-Wan: See, those were my thoughts exactly! Anakin: [confused as hell] …yeah, so…why… Obi-Wan: [scrolling on his phone] I, too, thought to myself “goodness! That certainly looks like Anakin pledging his life to a Sith Lord, but that, that makes no sense whatsoever! We were just about to win the war, and at any rate I just saw him only a handful of hours ago. Becoming a Sith, at this moment of all moments, would be possibly the stupidest, least-thought-through decision he’s ever made, even including that time he ate those leftovers that had been in the conservator since before we left for Christophsis.” Anakin: [makes a face] Obi-Wan: But then I thought, “well, Obi-Wan, you’ve known Anakin a very long time, surely if he’s doing something this drastic, it must be for a very good reason indeed. A reason that is based on solid facts that he has thought through at length after having gotten many hours of restful sleep. It’s not like he’d turn to the Dark Side because he’s panicked about something and refuses to talk to anyone about it in any actionable detail, and has decided to place all his proverbial eggs in one basket that happens to belong to a Sith Lord who orchestrated this entire war from the start!” Because of course that would be idiotic. And if that were the case, Anakin should probably just shut up and get on the ship and go help his wife before I have to do something I very much wouldn’t like to have to do to him. Anakin: [opens his mouth] [closes it] [unintelligible mumble] Obi-Wan: So, very well then. Sith Lords it is. Do I need to do anything immediately, or shall we just get on to murdering people?I I must say I don’t own many dark colors, but I’m sure we can stop at a store at some point during our killing spree. Anakin: W– no, I mean, Obi-Wan, you can’t…like…be that way. That’s not…you’re…you. Obi-Wan: What way is that, Anakin? Did you or did you not ask me to join you? Hmm? I said I accept. I presume you are a man of your word. Whom shall I kill in cold blood? [draws his lightsaber] Anakin: I…you should. I just. [mumbles again] Obi-Wan: What’s that? I couldn’t quite hear you. [leans in slightly] Would it bother you to see me behaving in such a way? Would it disappoint you, or possibly even tear your heart into pieces to watch your Master fall so far and do such terrible things? Would you do anything, forgive anything even though that is objectively insane, in the off chance that I might see reason, because I am behaving so far beyond anything you know of me? Anakin: [looks away and stares] [more mumbling, scuffs his boot on the ground] Obi-Wan: …well?! Anakin: [pouting and picking up his cloak, already walking away] I said I’ll get in the ship!
I infinitely prefer this kind of roasting of Anakin to the way that Definitely Didn’t Happen In Canon No Siree.
Kyra, she/her, aro/ace, queer in general. I have a lot of Loki feelings. I write fanfic sometimes, mostly about Loki. I like stupid jokes and I play games on easy because I'm an adult and I can do that if I want to. I also dabble in customizing action figures, and I have an Etsy shop for simple Funko Pop! customs. Formerly visions-and-revisions. I also run the Hope Jar and Alaska Gothic. Ace Inquisitor icon by augustsbutt--go commission them!
