#convalescent home

[littledaydreamers]

Closed starter || @butlerbarrow He dreams of being back in that trench. He dreams of all the bodies of his comrades. He dreams of their hands grabbing at him. Dozens of them were gangly, gaunt, and pale, with an air of death. They pull at him, dragging him down into the mud until he can't breathe. His own hands reach for the surface, clawing at the phantom fingers grasping his body. Everything is cold, black, and silent except for the muffled, anguished screams. Robbie thrashed in the bed.

His eyes snapped open, a strangled cry escaping his lips. He sat bolt upright, gasping for breath, his chest heaving with the terror of the dream. For a moment, the darkness of the room seemed to mirror the abyss of the trench, the silence punctuated only by the echo of his own ragged breathing.

Robbie was back in the convalescent home, the sterile white walls a stark contrast to the dark, muddy grave that haunted his dreams. The bandages on his shoulder and back felt like a second skin, a constant reminder of the hell he'd escaped. His head throbbed a dull ache that echoed the head injury he'd suffered. He could still see the faces of his comrades, their screams swallowed by the deafening roar of the explosion. The smell of cordite and burning flesh clung to him, a phantom stench that wouldn't leave.

Me, trying to take the 17 years of Bat comics continuity between A Death in the Family and Under the Hood and trying to figure out how it all lines up within the 4ish(???) years of Red Hood: Lost Days which it all canonically happened within…

#okay we got like three continuity events directly referenced in Lost Days. #A Lonely Place of Dying (we see Jason reacting to Tim and being sad boy) #Death and Maidens (since after that Talia is anti-Bruce and fucks Jay) #and Hush. #and in between all that… #SO MUCH HAPPENS TO THE BATS. #Gotham is like the sunset—it’s every fucking day with that one! #also like three and a half years pass between Jason coming back to life and Jason going in the pit. #six months after he dies he wake up in his coffin. #one year after that he escapes from the convalescent home. #one year after THAT he gets picked up by Talia. #and then one year after THAT he gets thrown in the Laz Pit. #so idk why people think Jason was ‘underage’ when Talia fucked him. #definitely not doing research for a fic idea. #Nerp.

quick backstory: i had to see a different GP at my usual clinic to get a referral letter to get a psychiatrist appointment to get a letter confirming my gender dysphoria diagnosis in order for my surgeon to go ahead with my surgery (she swallowed the dog to catch the cat...)

got a call yesterday from the clinic cause the GP i saw wanted to have a follow up appointment "to discuss results"??? had to explain i'm an hour away in [country town] at my parents recovering post-surgery

anyway it was all fine and the receptionist said i can make an appointment when i'm back and feeling better (okay??) and after i hung up my mum said "you should have said you're convalescing in the countryside" and now that phrase won't leave my fucking head

#oh sorry i was convalescing in the countryside #well when i'm home i guess i'll be convalescing at the seaside (kinda)

⌖ FLEXING LIKE THIS FLEXING THING’S A HOBBY

#⌖ hellfie #// I post for the first time in like 2 months and it's this clown with green hair and jord*n peters*n's custom suit. #I saw the suit ages ago and thought 'oh I need to stick Al in this.' I say she wore it better. #I wasn't even intending for her to have green hair ddfjdv I just wanted to draw her with rose gold hair and catch up on that to-do list #but then remembered that hair turning green is A Thing and she should Deal with that LOL and what better outfit to pair with her hair #someone come get their futch bourbon aunt grandma. she's BIG DRIPPIN & BIG SWAGGIN & BIG RIZZIN at the convalescent home #if you see any mistakes no you don't. I'm tired and studying and this was my break piece.

Guess who fucked up her knee again??? And AT WORK no less

#oh god i hate this. everything about this. like i am crying and screaming and throwing up #GOD girl. honestly i think the worst part was it was almost the end of my shift. it was ~4:05 and i was sipping my water as i do #and i was about to go back to the counter and get back at it and serve the customers that were there. but i must have.. slipped? or twisted #something wrong??? i don’t know. all i know is my knee popped straight out of its socket and i SCREAMED and fell to the fucking ground #my coworker (we’ll call the sheriff) tried to grab me and failed. i just sat there with my head in my hands thinking PLEASE tell me this #didn’t fucking happen. it did though. VERY publicly #i don’t know who summoned them but the retail manager and my ultimate boss wheeled me out 🫠 and the marketing guy drove me to the hospital 🫠 #which didn’t have an x-ray because shitty small town hospital 🫠🫠🫠 but we managed to rendezous with my stepdad there #at which point i was handed over to him. at which point i decided ‘fuck the hospital’ because literally they did NOTHING the first time i #dislocated my knee. they didn’t even x-ray it or prescribe me anything!!!! they just hurt me more; told me i’d overextended a ligament #and sent me home to convalesce. so i was like.. i mean i don’t feel like doing that again #i can tell my kneecap is back in the socket because girl i made it upstairs. like. yes it hurts like hell but i don’t think anything #is broken. i DO need to find out why this shit keeps happening to me and what i can do to stop it; but that’s not an a&e situation #that’s a gp or a physio or a fucking knee expert or something #so basically i’m going to stay in my bed with my brace and an ice pack and some entertainment and see what happens to me #i already know this is bad. like. as bad as the first time probably #the second and third times i was able to walk unassisted afterwards. i can’t walk unassisted. so. #basically tomorrow i’m going to call my boss and be like ‘i don’t think i can come in for the rest of the week on account of my knee #is approximately the size of texas and i have officially sprained it badly. but i’ll update you’ #i hope i’m wrong. i hope i wake up tomorrow to just like a mild ache and feel STUPID #girl i can’t believe i’m saying this but i want to go to work. i want to work bank holiday sunday PLEEEEEAAAAAASE #i don’t want to limp around my house and cry. recuperating from an injury is the fucking worst WHY must i do it again #so. if you need me i’m going to be eating whatever the hell my mom has prepared (worst part of this is i can’t even cook for myself) #and reading… something. or i might play stardew honestly. or write!! i’ve been wanting to write for so long my god #so that’s my life currently 🙃🙃🙃 #personal

#tag talk #had a dream I found this really gorgeous aquamarine turtleneck with actually long enough sleeves for me and then I woke up ب_ب #do you have any idea how fucking disappointing it was to wake up and realize that I do in fact not have a nice comfy turtleneck #I'm genuinely so sad #also there was a cute bra I picked up in my dream as well and guess what. I don't have that irl either. #when summer hits I wanna go thrifting again. I don't like going out in the winter but ugh. I want summer to exist pleaseeee #I'm gonna drag my new trans friend along cause that seems like it would be really fun to look at clothes together I think. #hrrnngghhhhh I want to live my life and enjoy it please I just want to #also my therapy appointment was good but it genuinely made me so exhausted for real. like. physically tired. #which means that I've for sure still got problems rattling around in my head since anytime I get close to them my body reacts physically. #I'm still tired but I think I'll be able to get up in about twenty minutes hopefully. #I stripped the old sheets from my bed but didn't remake it but I showered so I'm clean so I just went to bed without sheets anyway #it feels kind of nice somehow. bare skin on bare mattress. feeling bad and just existing under covers. #idk why but it feels like home. like I'm a kid again. I say idk that's a lie I know why. #it's nice to just be a little miserable and convalescent and dissociate and nap and drift away into nothingness for a while. #maybe that dissociation immediately after confronting my own thoughts isn't super great though. #I have such a strong aversion to my own mind. such a repulsion from digging deeper than what I'm comfortable with. #I have this fear that I'll continue to find new things wrong with me. continue to find new explanations for why I'm so fucked up and weird. #will I have a reason for why I dump my friends after a few months. why I imagine unspeakable violence on the regular. #idk. I still struggle with the hurt deep down inside and it's so extremely photosensitive that I can't open it up without it lashing out #I'm a human being grown over a skeleton of scar tissue and alien growth. a body pulled tight over the skin of another. #what the fuck am I really? I know who I am. I still don't know what.

#i don’t have the energy anymore. i’ve worn myself out #i’m going to try and have a quiet day tomorrow. convalescence. indoors with art and seminar prep and reading #hysteria takes so much out of me and makes me feel so hopeless that i may as well try to be fine again #i’m seeing my father in the evening for dinner and i’m going to tell him that i’m a little stressed and homesick and that— strikes #permitting— i’d like to come home for a bit next week. is that allowed? i think that’s allowed #i’m so tired. i can either kill myself or i can just try to handle myself gently for a bit. let’s see

#i feel bad for being selfish but i'm sad that i have to spend at least the first half of my party birthday getting tested #and depending on the results i'll either go to class or stay at home and convalesce

Eddie literally woke up from his coma and kicked his girlfriend out of the room so he could make convalescent moon eyes at Buck. Eddie literally looked like he'd rather hide himself in Buck's rib cage than face the world. Eddie literally first named him while effortlessly validating his entire existence and implying nobody would know Buck like he did while they both had whole entire girlfriends waiting for them at Eddie's surprise party. Eddie literally said "Nobody will EVER fight for my son as hard as you" and he was about to go home to his actual girlfriend whom would eventually give him panic attacks. I for one think we've grown too lax on bullying him for his insane behabior tbh.

#this shit woke me up in a cold sweat stg #buddie #k spirals #inspired by the person i met in clinic who has a normal relationship w this show which ill never understand

Martha Burns’ crocheted capelet has an interesting history in the world of television. It made its first on-screen appearance in 2009 when Burns wore it as Mrs. Burgess in the Murdoch Mysteries episode entitled Convalescence. Several years later, the capelet reappeared in a completely different show – Anne with an E – worn by Corinne Koslo as Rachel Lynde. It’s fascinating to see how a single piece of clothing can transcend one show and find a new home in another, creating a subtle connection between two separate fictional worlds. The capelet itself is a beautiful piece with intricate details and a cozy, comforting feel that makes it perfect for the colder months.

“Wonderful name. Al. I like it. And no need to worry about the racket, darling. Trust me when I say that being the creator of everything tends to leave you with a headache that makes the idea of absorbing constant influx of the growing and changing interweb space to look like a shrimp in comparison. It doesn’t bother me much. Rather it simply amuses me, to see so many little interactions on here. Like sitting on the ground and watching a colony of ants.”

⌖ Thank you!

⌖ I see, I see! Of course. Sorry to hear about the headache! So, what brings you to this website? Are you in search of entertainment as well?

#// al behind the scenes like 'why is he telling me all this. this feels like a flex. is he flexing on me. is he telling me i'm an #insignificant ant to him. that's fine but is that a flex. you just met me. sir this is a mcdonalds. is he just bored? #this man gotta be bored. I can't imagine another reason Lucifer is talking to my convalescent home escapee ass on voxblr' #endless rapture #⌖ online
