I have a question for you, tumblr. How do you deal with street harassment, as a woman who probably wouldn’t be able to defend herself if the guy decided to stop the car and punch me?
In the past two weeks, on the days I’ve had to walk to work, I walk down two streets that see a lot of traffic. I have been whistled at, honked at, and once called out to from a van containing at least...

completelysane asked: "You wanted to find scars," she eked out, voice straining, and he bit at her throat while her fingers scratched at his shoulder where the Recovery sigil would be if he'd ever been emblazoned with one. He hadn't needed it; everyone knew. Except her. "You wanted to make them." "Only after you wounded me," he said, and she pulled him closer because this revenge...

This deserves to see every light of every day ever.
mumblybee left this in my inbox because she is made of rainbows and puppies.
Once upon a time, Ree was walking along feeling a bit under the weather. This was partially because of the weather itself, which, as weather does, had defied expectations and inconvenienced everyone around (and within?) it. Ree sighed and bowed her head in great and...
I love you guys. Seriously. Everyone who sent/is sending me messages deserves a medal for being awesome. Actually, they deserve at least two. Five. Five is good.
I haven’t had a day that swung from ok to this completely awful in a long, long time, so I think I’m going to go and make myself some food my lack of appetite won’t let me eat and come back to this calmer or...

That last response to Zuzanna’s question was supposedto be two paragraphs long. My ipod apparently decided the first sentence was effort enough and ate the rest of it. Fuck you too, apple.
tl;dr: my day has quickly turned to suck and prompts, requests, askbox fics, kind messages, any positive human contact would be greatly appreciated.
I’m going to go and hope the rain...
queen-of-france asked: How do you feel about some prompts? I know you wanted to take abreak from fic, so I didn't want to bother you, but maybe you'd like one or tow now? c:

Today could’ve gone better. A lot better.
Back to job hunting tomorrow because my hours were cut (which I knew would happen), but at least I still have that one paycheck of two weeks of full time to look forward to, and wave goodbye to as it pays bills and loans and all those things.
After dressing for rain for the past three days and finally seeing a forecast of sunny skies, I am...

Generation Y.
Receptionist: Don't you feel like your generation is just lazy?
Me: Lazy? I'd say apathetic.
Receptionist: Isn't it the same?
Me: No. My generation is criticized and toiled with, and I don't see why not - just turn on the TV and watch what they're feeding us. But my generation is not lazy. My generation fought in Iraq and Afghanistan. My generation fought for womens rights in a fury that hadn't been seen since the 19th Amendment. My generation got our first black President elected. My generation fought for Gay rights for the first time in American history. And with all that, we are apathetic, and that's because things aren't going to be better for us down the road. We are the first generation expected to make less than our parents. We are the first generation to see America lose its status as a super power. We've lived through the worst economic times since the Great Depression, and are forced to take out thousands of dollars in student loans at the same time, all while our college degrees slowly turn into a highschool diploma. We've done plenty, and expect nothing. So no, I wouldn't say we're lazy, just apathetic.

RvB Drabble: Overthinking
She had thought about how to greet him, too. She thought about punching him out of anger, or rolling her eyes in that familiar way he always inspired. She thought of taking out a lighter or stealing his, because of course he’d have a lighter if he met her again. She thought about laughing to his joke, for the first time in so long she can’t even remember.
She thought about doing...

Get a call back about coming in, do so after a town feetival to discover that this restaurant has a bunch of dorm rooms built in and I have one ready for me, with my...

Why am I finding being a nice, considerate, polite, not-asshole person such a challenge lately?
I think my patience is running out a lot faster than it used to. I wonder how I could replenish that so I can once again be calm and collected and pleasant.
Rather than quiet and resentful and one step away from being disproportionately mean to someone who does not deserve it to that degree.

Funny thing was Wash had heard it too sometimes, just wafting through the airwaves: “I just wish that Grif was dead, put a bullet through his head…” and although he could sleep through a lot he knew he didn’t like the idea that teamkilling was the one thing the Reds, Blues, and Freelancers all had in common.
Ugh, I love these short little fics you do that pull at all the...

Valhalla means Donut, yes?
Doesn’t it also mean Sister and Junior.
They’re going to get back there and Donut and Sister will have an awkward marriage of convenience and three fields of corn to take care of. It’s Donut’s inner farmer. And Sister’s need for human contact.
And they’ll have adopted Junior who grudgingly tolerates them like a cat would...

Things I love: the last episode of RvB.[[MORE]]
Serious, serious love.

English minor, aspiring writer

the-red-sheep asked: Hey, are you open for requests still? We were chatting on the RTumblr skype, and decided that we needed a fic of Wash finding North and York's bodies; oh, and that you would be perfect for it. We would absolutely love it, and you if you could write something along the lines? Emotional Wash would be nice. :) Thanks!

Let it always be known that I am a sexy sexy beast. Because I have proof in my phone. Aaaaaw yeah.
Also, working for a living is great, not having time to write because all the people is not. Need to plan things better. Or stop sleeping.
Also I’m attractive and damn it all, I’m going to actually say and believe it for a night. And when I don’t, I can look at the texts that...

I woke up with this in my head
completelysane:
“You would have liked it,” Carolina said quietly, looking down at the scorched flagstones. “I met that guy, you know? Grif, from that stupid sport.”
UGH WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY

Doctor Who episode Midnight:[[MORE]]
Watching this separately from my friend, so I feel like I need to write about it.
Because David Tennant’s face. This entire post will be a brief love letter to David Tennant and his attractiveness.
He totally ruined everything about men for me. With his perfection. Seriously.
Also! Merlin is in this episode! Being all angsty teen but still kinda cute....

I love that you guys took my last post as a reaction to rvb and not at all as what it was, a need to mentally reset so I stop being an ass to someone (mental reset that seemed to require sleep). It makes me giggle.
I did watch the episode and my reaction was pretty much the same as mumblybee’s, only silent because of my fluctuating mood. Happy about the events and my small shipper’s...
Breathe, step back, reset.

Dream report:
Got hired by roosterteeth, at first as like a gaming store cashier which then meant I needed to go to corporate where I was drawing a superhero comic about a girl who couldn’t remember she was a superhero and I was working on illustrations to pitch the story. I also worked close with Joel and we flirted a nearly illegal amount even if in the end I wound up accidentally...
