#but it'll be okay

sitting in the window of my favourite cafe with the endless sun warming my face, the sweet taste of coffee on my lips and the slow hum of music from my headphones

#life is always different everytime i come here #and thats okay i think #winter was hard and long #but it'll be okay #sitting in front of these big windows with the partly cloudy blue sky makes me feel okay #it feels like a dream #diary

I want to thank you so much for your post. I also know how it is to feel lonely. I guess we'll be lonely together and then maybe it will help the loneliness go away

Oh, lovely maggot. I'm sorry you've had to feel lonely too. But you're right, if we're both lonely, then it has to help, doesn't it?

Loneliness can be so many things. It can be white noise in the background, poetic in a bittersweet way. It can hit you all at once in the middle of a laugh, a kick in the throat that reminds you how you actually feel.

It can be standing in the middle of a crowd and smiling and feeling disoriented, like the world is fuzzy at the edges and you're not entirely there. It can be sitting alone on the floor in the middle of the night and holding yourself tightly because maybe if you press hard enough that empty space will close up.

It can be sitting with people you love and who love you, and realising you have less and less in common with them as the years pass.

I've felt all those kinds of lonely, and then some. Often more than one at once. I'm sure a lot of you have too. It's not fun. It's not fair. It really fucking sucks. But if there are all those types of loneliness, maybe there are different types of togetherness too.

Togetherness can be so many things, too. It can be white noise in the background, something you're sure of, that you're not alone, even if you don't think about it.

It can be holding someone you love tightly in your arms and being held just as tightly back. It can be laughing at a shitpost on this hellsite, and knowing how many people are laughing along with you, and how you have this one moment of ridiculous joy in common.

It can be catch-ups once a week or month or year, letting you know that though you're out of touch, you're remembered and cared for. It can be a greeting to a stranger on the street, to a cashier, to a bus driver, a reminder of how many humans are living along with you.

It can be a friend whom you've never met and don't know their name, or age, but you know they're the best part of your day and you open your phone to see what they've sent you with a smile.

It can be a fandom, people bonding over their love for a story, and creating endless more. It can be a book where the author puts into words just what you've been feeling all along.

It can be a human or a dog or a cat or a crow that looked greedily at your breakfast cereal. Even the tiniest thing can mean comfort. Here's a poem by Robert Frost, called the Dust of Snow:

Plus a baby crow photo, because we all need a baby crow glaring at a camera from time to time. I'm sorry to my Indian maggots, this poem might have brought back some high school trauma, but it is a beautiful one.

You're not alone. Even the littlest things can mean you're not alone. I love you all, my maggots, and I'm here for you.

y'all, working on my smut threesome story with Buck/Eddie/Tommy is just...I'm enjoying it. I feel like my writing is really good in it. I love where it's going. And I have MISSED this about writing smut.

it's also making me realize how much better I am at writing my polyam relationships haha

#tanis rambles #anyways though #tommy and eddie are being absolutely teases to buck #but it'll be okay #i promise #also lets be real buck loves it

I'm going to die. (It's fine.)

Pray for me, all. Comps are about to kick my behind.

Musical Diplomacy/Book History

1. Loscocco article. (That was a really well-written article.)

Comps

2. Study the baroque materials. (*sigh*)

3. Study the classical materials. (*another sigh*)

4. Study the Schumann materials. (My advisor always gives constructive feedback but good Lord this is his literal specialty.)

5. Study the theory materials. (I should be able to do a quick review of my assignments from the class -- this is why I kept them all.)

Adulting

6. Gym trip #1. (Done.)

7. Laundry. (Done.)

I'm taking the thesis off the list this week because I really, really need to focus on comps. If I get some done this week that'll be awesome, but it will be after and only after I successfully complete my comps.

#amy rambles #amy's to do list #diplomacy and book history seminar #comps #adulting #catholic university of america #cua #musicology #music major #do not be fooled by the very tiny list #it's big #it's so big #but it'll be okay #at least i hope it will

It's going to be okay.

Four years ago I was a depressed mess who didn't think I could escape the torture of life without disappearing.

Now I'm watching a Musical, the doors and windows are open, munching on fresh fruit, and learning how to make my own life. One laundry detergent recipe and piracy site at a time

#It did indeed get better #It always will #nothing lasts forever #Not even this #But it'll be okay #Anyone have any good recipies? #Or sites? #I am begging #Anarchy #Musical Theater #Fresh air #Fresh Fruit #Motivational

I hear it's WIP Wednesday. And apparently I got tagged by @ejunkiet and tumblr didn't tell me. Rude tumblr why you gotta be like this. But anyway... here's what I've got so far. Gotta go get ready for work now unfortunately.

****

The first time Huxley meets Milo is at a home game during halftime. He'd been on his way to see a healer about his arm. Huxley's a pretty big guy. But so are his teammates as well as the visiting team. A 2 on 1 collision out on the field had sent him to the ground where he'd landed wrong. During the quarter before the break he'd been slowly favoring his arm more and more. Now the wrist on his right arm had swollen and shades of purple and blue blossomed along his forearm. He'd barely been able to convince Xavier to stick with the rest of the team, reassuring him that he wasn't hurt enough to need an escort. He could still walk.

While walking down the hall to the healers room, Huxley bumped into a group of guys from the away team. Two of them being the ones who ran into him on the field. An uneasy feeling settled in the pit of Huxley's stomach as he plastered on, what he hoped, was an easy-going smile. "Hey fellas. How's it going?"

The closest one snorted pressing into Huxley's personal space and sneered. "How's it going? I don't know ditch boy, you tell us."

Huxley could feel the smile slowly disappear from his face as he looked over the group. Not one of the five seemed to be in any shape or form of good mood. More so borderline angry, hostile. Especially the two that had been on the field with him. Stepping back to get some space and comfort back, the freelancers aura was starting to set Huxley's teeth on edge with how abrasive it was against his own. Raising his hands palms out, Huxley tried smiling again. "Hey bro, I wasn't trying to be funny or anything. Like are you guys okay? Are you on your way to the healers as well? Cause like I'm sorry..."

Dread settled in Huxley's chest as a snarl crossed the other guys face. "Like hell you're going to the healer! We're going to make it so you'll be out for the rest of the game."

Huxley stumbled back into the wall as the gravaton lunged towards him. He made the mistake of holding his injured arm in front of himself and the energetic capitalized on it.

i'm trying to fix my sleeping schedule (cause it's been fucked up for so long) so i try to wake up around 10am (i haven't really been doing that though cause i sleep through my fucking alarms so my dad had to go buy a second alarm clock for me so now i have two in case i don't wake up from the first one!!) but the problem is that i only get motivation to do stuff in the late afternoon, before that i'm anxious and stressed out and then i've started to go on walks so i do that before dinner for like an hour. and then we have dinner and i hang out with my sister and then it's midnight and i'm like at my most active and happy so then i don't want to go to sleep and so i stay up and it's all very messy and is not going as smooth as i would like.

#i just needed to rant about this okay #it's a problem #and i'm trying so hard but i don't feel like it's enough #but it'll be okay #i'm not giving up at least

[taegularities]

ah Rid Rid Rid i missed you 😭🧡 there's so much i wanna cover, i tried do catch up on all you've been up to and my god honey i'm so sorry that you were feeling down 🫂 it's absolutely okay and understandable because tumblr is not the same, engagement is not the same and it does get lonely here, i wish you wouldn't have to encourage anyone to give feedback for what you post, for teasers or ideas but i'm really hoping that it did and does help 🥺 I AM ABSOLUTELY 100000% EXCITED FOR CMI AND YOUR WIPS, there're so many times throughout each day when i think about you and your stories and lately cmi has been really occupying my thoughts bc i try to imagine what's gonna happen 🥹

and happy birthday to taegularities 🧡🎉💫 i'm so amazed that you've done so much, wrote so many stories and have this community here, love, you deserve a huge applause for those 2 years and i wish you all the years to come (as many as you want) to be happy, colourful, full of lovely messages and feedbacks, and the least lonely, like at all 🫂 I CAN'T REMEMBER EXACTLY IF I FOLLOWED YOU AFTER READING JUST CHANGES IN BETWEEN OR RIGHT AMOUNT OF WRONGS TOO but i felt so much in my heart, i was hit instantly with this sense that my heart knows your type of storytelling as if it was my own thought, emotion, i'd never felt this much connection with any writing ever before and i instantly followed you, i knew i had to eat up every word you'd written and i'm on this journey ever since, following taegularities back then was the best i could've done on tumblr but months later i set up this new blog and decided to show myself to you and it's the close 2nd place 🥹 as for many it took a lot of courage but you know it already i adore you and you're so amazing and lovely and so worth leaving the comfort zone to be able to show you the appreciation and love we have for you 🧡

ah godddd with that being said i'm so so sorry that i've been mia so much, and not responsive to what you've been putting up, i have to catch up on the 2nd cmi teaser and i'm waiting for a better time to write you a feedback of silk&stones that it deserves BC IT DESERVES A LOT OF AMAZING WORDS 😭 it's just a rough time for me in every aspect bc i'm moving this week (and i always hate doing that) and i'm managing my last days here with my mum that i love dearly, andd.. i'm gonna start a new job that i got, in a week and a half... it's not exactly in a place that i've wanted but it is the new profession that i said i wanted, so i'm excited that i can start working in that new field and learn and maybe later end up in a place that i'd want 🙏 but i'm also extremely nervous bc it's very new and not what i've studied for all those years 😂 so i'm just very overwhelmed but i know that i will come back as much as possible and try to be active (lowkey i'm checking if you're alive daily 🫶) and catch up and also be here to support you 🧡

I'M ABSOLUTELY NOT GOING ANYWHERE

so sorry for this being so long to everyone, love you Rid so so much 🧡 i missed you really, how's the situation with your new job? and how're THE DATES??? I'M SO NOSY AM I NOT 😈

C! HI, I MISSED YOU, TOO !!!!! ahhh, thank you 🫂 things (not just on tumblr, but irl, too) are still not the way they should be, but i've decided to not be too negative about everything and just vibe. i want to show y'all my best side, but i'll still always be honest about everything. i've also been talking to my mom a lot and doing stuff irl, so that helps a bit. you do so much for me, though, c !! i'm so so thankful for every message, every review and every lovely comment from you. and i know how much you love cmi, so that's definitely inspiring and helpful when i lose faith in myself or my writing 🥺

gosh, yes happy birthday to taegularities 😭 !! i'm genuinely so thankful for this lovely community... i don't think i'd still be here without you guys <3 so thank you. and gosh, whether you came after cib or raow, i'm just so damn thankful that you're here. your presence has been a great comfort. i'm worth leaving the comfort zone? i'm so so happy to hear that, and so happy i can provide such a safe space for you 🥺

and don't apologise about being mia at all !!! god, you've been doing so much, i'm so proud of you for powering through it all. a new place to live, a new job, are you kidding, that's amazing !!! please take your time with the teaser, feedback or any writing at all, you sound hella busy 🥺 i hope you get to relax properly very soon, and that you rest and hydrate enough. manifesting a good time at your job and an even better place later on !! thank you for checking on me btw 😭 i'm, surprisingly, still alive :') </3

my new job is probably going to start in april! i sent an email accepting it just today, so i'll see how that pans out. and the dates ugh. we went iceskating last week and it was genuinely beautiful. but rn, tbh... we're on a break, and not really talking to each other, bc he said a few things that don't align with my thinking and mentality at all, so... no particular updates so far. i'll let you know what happens in the future, though :') i love you, dearest c <333

#men are just so... complicated lmao #but it'll be okay #also those long ass asks? my heart 🥺 #happy birthday taegularities <3 #notes for rid 🌹 #c. <3 #fic: colour me in #long ask

I can't believe I was so focused on mp100 that I didn't know there was a Dadrius week last year 😭

Won't make that mistake again...

#I think there's going to be some mp100 zine deadline around the time Dadrius week takes place tho... #But it'll be okay #I hope #I still couldn't finish Teru Week nor Mob Week and that still haunts me 😭

[birdmenmanga]

LOL hopefully I can get back to storyboarding with more confidence now

#just thinking thoughts... #the only reason I actually went back and ironed out those points was that I was drawing my storyboards and going 'oh noooo' #'its not gonna be good...' #but once again I'm reassured that like. I think it IS going to be good again. I think.' #so hopefully I can get the storyboards done without so much doubt and hesitation... #like as soon as I shift from 'making' into 'doing' I'll be fine #but right now I'm mired in doubt LOL #but it'll be okay #even if it's only a fraction of what I envision it to be it'll still be enough I think
