(apologies for outing myself as a fragrance enthusiast on main, but) i collected my order of niche samples today & although i haven't Experienced them properly yet, my opinion that le labo really /is/ a vastly overrated (and gimmicky. and overpriced! god.) house still stands.

Blade Runner ID Card Upgrade Continued
In order to make your own id card you will need need a picture of yourself and a font for the signature on the back. I used Mrs Saint Delafield but you can use whatever font you want. You can also use My Lives Signature. For the picture, I'm going to use BeFunky to show you how to put it together.
1. Open BeFunky and choose create, than select photo editor. Drag the 3rd image to the middle and then add your own picture to the image manager. Example
2. Drag your picture to the middle and cover the entire image. Make sure that it is centered. Then select flatten which is in the lower left hand corner. Select frames and choose borders. Reduce the outer and inner thickness to 0% and raise corner radius to 26%. The save the picture to your computer. Example
3. Add the 1st image to the middle and add the picture you just saved to image manager. Than drag the picture and shrink it. You will have to fidget with the picture to fit it into the space. I recommend selecting alignment and turning off snapping. Or clicking on the image, going into the options tab and lowering the opacity. Example
4. Now we add your name. I used the American Typewriter font which is included on BeFunky. Go back to alignment and turn on snapping. Go to text, select the American Typewriter font and change the size to 76px. Write your name and drag it over to the white bar. Go to graphics and select the square. Crop it and make it the same height as the white bar. This will help center the text. Finally, save the picture to your computer. Example
5. Congratulation, you now have your own blade runner id card. Hopefully you were able to understood my explanation. Feel free to message me if you have any questions.

Is ford possessed by Bill or someone/something else
alright apparently i lied. this is the last post for tonight
i personally would prefer if it was some sort of ghost or ethereal being other than bill
one, because. bill just doesn’t seem like the type to casually live in someone’s body without bee lining straight for a goal/letting his identity be known after just a little while. there is also the metal plate which keeps him out
second reason, it would be really interesting from the niblings’ perspective. dipper pulling mabel aside one day and telling her that something’s up with ford and he thinks it’s related to bill. they try to go into ford’s mind to get rid of bill but end up somewhere very not that and are met with a being that is neither ford nor bill. and they have no idea what to do because they just didn’t account for it not being bill
something like that
anyway for people-pleasing reasons it’s bill because of course it is

Howdy Caroline, I saw a post about Talk shop Tuesday so I thought I'd be nosy on main. I wonder, how does research factor into your fic writing, and what was the most taxing research you had to do for a fic? 🐸
oooh hi, iva!!! thank you so much for shooting the ask--god knows i always love talking about fic!
to answer your question: i think most of my fic-related research is limited to "what episode did character x do this/say that", just so that i have the timeline of events down. i know it's not the end of the world if i don't perfectly remember how a certain scene went down, but i can't help it--i like being precise when it comes to at least recalling canon events.
outside of that specific brand of research (just making sure my timeline/recitation of quotes is all set), i'll sometimes do wilder research for like ... au projects that are set in a different time. that doesn't happen often (i think the reason why i tend not to write au's that are set other than present day is specifically because i get overwhelmed by the amount of research to be done), but when it does, i'm usually stuck researching for hours. that's probably why i just never got around to posting this one period jwds au i have. the plot keeps shifting, mostly to suit the research that i've done. deep sigh. one day i swear i'll finish writing that story and post it, but right now it's just gotten a little away from me. it's marinating.
outside of that story though, i think i've been lucky enough to not need to do too much research for fics . . . maybe that'll change one day (especially if i ever fall in love with a more period-drama-esque story), but ! ! ! as of now, i think my research time really only takes up 10 - 15% of my fic writing process.

Working Girl (1988). When a secretary's idea is stolen by her boss, she seizes an opportunity to steal it back by pretending she has her boss' job.
Deeeelightful. This is just seriously so much fun and emboldened with great comedic performances, strong writing, and a romance that's as much about self-love as it is about falling in love. Really special little 80s romcom with a stellar cast. 7/10.
