Tagging: @piabird @swords0827 @pompompuryun whoever else wants to!
Nickname: I have a billion, the most unique has been Citrus, I'm Meow to my niphlings, Pinky, Sid, Lyn, Pid
Sign: Pisces Sun (burn the textbook and it makes sense), Virgo Moon, Rising Gemini
Height: 5"7ish 8ish?
Last thing I googled: ignoring me tryna figure out my horoscope for the billionth time, and song lyrics, Shencomix, wanted to reread all of bluechair
Song stuck in my head: "Not Okay" Robert Grace and "8Now" Foodhouse
Amount of Sleep: I am perpetually fatigued but can't sleep cause I'm a night time person soo, too much and too little ywy
Dream Job: Something creative and hands-on, musician or artist or writer or witch doctor, herbalist florist or forest ranger or I dunno I have a lot of interests I just wanna be an RPG video game character!
Wearing: Gray sweater I stole from my partner, he got it from a blood donation drive the other day (I'm anemic so I can't qwq) and its pretty, my most stereotypically me black baggy pants, partners socks, and a lavender checkered sweater with a black hood that's soft but still doesn't fit right qwq OH and like and entire cats worth of cat fur! :D
Movies/Books that Summarize You: There aren't really any, and I'm not a movie person so besides Promare (because colorful upbeat and great soundtrack) I got nothing.
Books? I loved Heartless by Marissa Meyer, The Truth-Teller's Tale by Sharon Shinn got me interested in propinquity, anything by Tamora Pierce is a good shot, Artemis Fowl by Eoin Colfer, the Dragonkeeper Chronicles by Donita K. Paul, I love the Queen's Thief series by Megan Whalen Turner but I'm terrified of reading the last book, Two Princesses of Bamarre by Gail Carson Levine omg
Favorite Song: Like with books I could keep going forever about music. I'll put five.
- Run Away - TxT
- The Heights by Heartbreaker (I recommend anything by them, also gores by nikbreakshearts)
- Sea by BTS
- I'm doing push-ups by Bears in Trees
- Deja Vu by Circus-P but also his whole 7/15 album ok
- I lied one more, The Price of Freedom by Takeharu Ishimoto because Crisis Core CHANGED ME FOREVER as a person and his stuff just kills me ok bye
Instrument: I can do a little flute and piano, my hands are too tiny for guitar, but if I could learn violin I'd die happy
Aesthetic: a cute chaotic gremlin, I violently switch aesthetics because I like whatever I like, but I also just wanna be comfy and happy and cute. Wear whatever gives me the serotonin and don't care if others don't think it matches!
Favorite Author: Okay since I already spazzed about books can I take a moment to promote Hello Bunny by nyam_nyamo on AO3 because it completely change the soulmate AU trope for me and I'll never be the same, I was screaming at them on Twitter after every update.
Alternatively if you like pain, Miintaexty is literally Satan to me
I realize these are both kpop fanfic authors but believe me. Just do it.
Random Fun Fact: I'm usually full of them but it's hard on demand. Oh I'm a weirdly good shot and it's a problem because my partner got us Nerf guns and I never remember not to shoot their face and my aim is. Good. which is bad. I'm so sorry. This has been discovered a few times and I'd definitely love to get into something that uses this odd skill.
Favorite Color: Blue and then Green, but also I just love anything colourful
Last Song: Was randomly singing You Raise Me Up by Josh Groban to bother my partner last night
Last Movie: Uhhhhh .....*shrugs*
Currently Craving: a time pause button or IRL save points
Tea or Coffee: I don't like the taste of tea but I drink it socially cause we are a Chai family and I just like warm sweet. I prefer (SWEET AND NOT BITTER) coffee but the caffeine is nooooooot good for my anxiety
Currently Working On: My marriage honestly (as in I just got married not as in we’re struggling), but also just improving my mental health and motivation enough to finish this damn degree satisfactorily so I can MOVE ON. Also getting my kitty (Nina) to like me and getting the tiny kitty (Meowki) to STOP HARRASSING NINA STOP LET HER GO TO THE BATHROOM YOU RASCAL
And decorating my new apartment. I make this place a home. Sewed the curtains myself UwU

No one cares, but Etho and Cleo's makeshift alliance (however brief) at the end of Last Life means so much to me.
While they were in no way allied any time until that point, they had one thing in common: losing Bdubs. Not having him in the first place, but losing him.
Etho who has spent the entirety of Last Life with an eye over his shoulder, pouring every inch of his efforts into keeping Bdubs alive against his better judgement. Etho, who in the same night lost his home, lost Bdubs, lost everything. A server after him, hunting him.
Cleo being there in the moment Etho realizes he's lost him for good. Ren and Scott are sad for him and expressing their sympathies, but as Etho's standing there processing Cleo is silently just standing there looking at him. Because they GET IT. "I understand, I've been there."
Etho turning red, respawning atop Ren's tower in a panic, thinking they'd turn on him, already accepting the fact that he's on his own again and is ready to fight. Cleo climbing the ladder and talking him down. I'm not going to hurt you, she says. And Etho believes her. He believes her and tells everyone else to back off. I don't know if he would've believed anyone else had they said that to him.
For all of the teasing and thinly-veiled threats these two exchange throughout not only last life but third life as well, those brief two episodes or so they're a team. And while it may be an alliance out of necessity, out of a lack of options, what better a default ally for Etho than Cleo?

God the current TV landscape has completely destroyed audiences ability to wait for developments and to accept suspense.
"Why hasn't this couple gotten together yet??" -> it's a slow burn, it takes time
"Why is nothing resolved by the end of the season??" -> sometimes, things have to get worse before they can get better, it takes time.
The best stories take their time because instant satisfaction is not good for storytelling. Rushing things is how you end up with the finale of game of thrones, and no one wants to end up like the finale of game of thrones
