hi hello i'm after two 12 hours shifts and this is what my mind has come up with before passing out, idk why but i honestly like the way aeon sounds so idk it's aeon now
and this one is for the lovely @lukewarm0223
it was the middle of the night and dew couldn't sleep, it happens sometimes when the thoughts are too much, usually aether or omega would use their quintessence to make his brain stop, but right now they're far away.
he kept turning around, because even though he knows it won't work, maybe laying on his left side would help him fall asleep.
a sign escaped his lips as he stood up, he doesn't want to bother aeon, but maybe...
he slowly moved through the corridor until he got to aeon's room, knocking on it softly and cringing at the sound. aeon didn't answer. dew opned the door and glanced inside.
he smiled at the soft purple light shining from the led lights he bought the new quint as a welcoming gift to the top side, and then.
"you didn't throw the trash." dew blinked, "aeon?"
nothing. dew entered aeon's room and closed the door behind him before he heard something again.
"the coffee machine is still on." aeon mumbled into his arm before making an explosion motion with his hand.
"what?" dew asked, laughing a bit and smiling at the sleeping ghoul.
"the coffee machiiiine!" aeon whined in his sleep before throwing an arm above his eyes.
"we don't have a coffee machine, dear."
"dew?"
he stopped, squinting his eyes, but no, phantom was still asleep. "...yeah?"
"yeah, dew," aeon gave a sleepy smile, "i love dew."
"oh." dew sat on the side of aeon's bed, "i love you too, bug."
and then aeom opened one eye, looking at dew before making some place to dew, "don't just be awake, go to sleep." he said before closing his eyes.
and as dew laid next to aeon, smiling at him softly before closing his eyes he thought that maybe he won't need to be knocked down with quintessence to sleep now.

In the last two weeks, I have envisioned myself being hit repeatedly on top of the head via a metaphorical chair of antisemitism.
So many things have happened and I think my brain is actively short circuiting. I can feel it being melded to the person I'll be for the rest of my life. Whenever anyone will ask me "why do you think like this? What has shaped you?" And I'll think back to being 19, and how my world imploded, and how I felt so fiercely alone just from being in a community people decided didn't matter.

Man, I miss CR.
I'm very aware that Critrole is still there! But I'm so, so tired these days, with a full-time job where, even if I had the time to stay up until 1AM or later on a weekly basis, I sure the fuck don't have the energy, and let's not even talk about trying to catch up on Saturdays. And I'm so behind. And maybe it was those things or maybe it was just a story mismatch, because I love CR3's characters, but the central philosophical conflict of "are the gods even worth saving?" is just. So supremely uninteresting to me.
Like, that is not a question of morality. Are the gods terrible? Maybe! Probably! So? It's a question of sheer practicality!!! Revolutions are hellish, bloody things that, even when they're successful, more often than not turn into destabilized government, power vacuums, and decades of continued warfare. That doesn't mean they aren't worth having, sometimes, but trying to take down a ruling body without understanding exactly how the system works and how you intend to replace it is a recipe for catastrophe and/or the Reign of Terror. And that's when the government is in charge of the railways and the flow of commerce. You want to continue the moral implications of maybe not taking down a poorly-run revolution against the people who control the tides and make the sun come up? I really hope you have a plan for making sure the sun still comes up!!!
I know that's hardly the only theme of the season, but like. I did my Catholic grappling with the non-existent moral authority of god twenty years ago. I don't have four hours of energy a week left in me to watch it play out these days.

Sucks being at the hospital again. This time for back pain that is too painful to let me do basic things like make a meal etc.
FML for real.

Want to share an excerpt from one of my wips for no reason Pt 4:
He jumped in surprise when he saw Arthur standing right in front of him and his eyes betrayed fear. 
"My lord?" he asked, but his voice cracked. 
So Mordred knew Merlin was in the dungeons. Who—
Right. Gwaine had been there. He dimly wondered if Gwaine was a sorcerer, but decided that he wouldn't be losing as many gambling games as he was if he did practice magic. 
"You are a druid," Arthur growled in a low voice. 
A flash of surprise mixed with desperation crossed his face, but he solemnly nodded. "I am."
"You use magic," Arthur growled again. 
"I do." Mordred's voice went as quiet as Merlin's had. This only made Arthur angrier. 
He pushed Mordred back in and shut the door.

Swiftli week, day 4
Free theme! (Laser tag)
Summary:
“I’d easily get more hits on you than you on me!” Taylor claims.
Lincoln’s smile turns into a playful smirk. “Oh is that right?”
Taylor leans in, standing on his tiptoes to get a little bit closer to Lincoln’s level. It makes him think of those professional boxing stare-showdowns. “Yea, that’s right, Mr. Li-Wilson.”
“You’re on, Swift.”
“Guys, we literally just finished the first game,” Normal tries to pipe up in between the two, “Maybe it's time for a little break first?”
“No! Someone has to taste true defeat,” Taylor shouts and points to the air, like an anime character ready for the fight, and picks up his laser tag armor again.
-------
OR:
Lincoln and Taylor get a little too competitive in a game of laser tag and are willing to do everything to win

What is it with emails? Why can't people just read?! You have the message right there, if you scroll back up when replying, you can read it again. I don't think I've ever, in my entire life, have gotten an answer to all the questions I asked in an email...
I've tried bullet points, I tried bold font, I tried separating each question into a different paragraph. I don't know what else to do.
Is it an unspoken rule I know nothing about that you have to choose only one of the questions (or sometimes none of them) to reply to? They're not options for a fun little activity, they're actual concerns I have as someone who's going to work for you!
What the actual fuck is wrong with people?! Just fucking READ!

I keep forgetting and then re-remembering that it's Halloween. It's a very surreal experience.

I got woken up by trigeminal pain this morning hours after less than four hours of sleep 🫠
After meds, heat, and ice, the pain is under control but I'm exhausted and defeated
