My media this week (28 Jan-3 Feb 2024)

📚 STUFF I READ 📚

🥰 The Last Devil to Die (Thursday Murder Club #4) (Richard Osman, author; Fiona Shaw, narrator) - still loving the characters, love to hang out with them & Osman's plots move along nicely so you don't get bored at all. Fiona Shaw's narration is great & as a little treat she & Osman have a nice little chat at the end.

🥰 Four Letter Word For Intercourse (bendingsignpost) - 194K, destiel AU - adult college student Dean & professor (and phone sex worker) Cas - LOVE this fic so much & had kind of forgotten about it until it came up as a rec in one of my romance discord servers. Just, so good.

😊 Mrs Sidhu Investigates (Suk Pannu, author; full voice cast) - 2 episodes of the BBC Radio 4 program: #1 Murder with Masala; #2 Mrs Sidhu's Dangerous Highland Game - I prefer the slight changes made for the TV show's characterizations but still eminently enjoyable. (Meera Syal still absolutely rules!)

🥰 Lucky Bounce (Cait Nary) - extremely delightful hockey romance. Low/no angst, charming, cutie MCs. Definitely in the 'no plot, just vibes' category which honestly I love when done skillfully.

💖💖 +102K of shorter fic so shout out to these I really loved 💖💖

Ye Olde YouTube Love Story (Aria_Lerendeair) - The Sandman: Dreamling, 7K - love dreamling human AUs

Any Givens Sundae (dancinbutterfly) - Justified: Boyd/Raylan, 25K - excellently written 'what-if' pinging off a random line of dialogue: what IF Raylan had retired & decided to sell ice cream?

A Warning from Henry the Eighth (Writer_at_the_Table) - "I'm Henry VIII I Am" - Herman's Hermits: , 152 - a villianelle about I'm 'Enry The Eighth by Herman's Hermits - the creativity & cleverness of fan makers truly is boundless

master of a nothing place (strzyga) - Star Trek: Spirk, 6K - short, great fic about Spock going feral when they're trapped on a planet

i think larry butz could defeat kristoph due to his power of being in the center of consant chaos yet being 100% uneffected. phoenix is in the centre of a whirlpool - larry, the eye of a storm

kristoph couldnt even touch larry he tries to poison his food larry trips the food flies out onto his canvas, larry is now inspired and makes money off of new art

if phoenix gets shot, he just kinda shrugs it off. kristoph hires sniper for larry? he ducks down to look @ a worm at just the right time, the bullet somehow rickoshets, hitting the sniper's gun

larry defeats kristoph by being such a force of chaos, that kristoph cannot predict 1 single thing larry does. tries to hire assiassin - honeypot special, for the first time in his life larry has sworn of romantic or sexual relationships to focus on himslef

also... i think phoenix should have sicced larry on kristoph to defeat him... the perfect plan.

#ace attorney #ace attorney 4 spoilers #larry butz #phoenix wright #kristoph gavin #THE THING TO UNDERSTAND #is that phoenix and larry are both lucky/unlucky #but in different ways!#larry's in wrong place wrong time wrong life #but he is untouched #a car crash behind him #the car somehow bounces over his head perfectly #phoenix meanwhile is just nigh invunrable #litterally gets hit by a car #sent 30ft headfirst into a pole and has only a spraind ankle #two different types of chaos-luck #and THATS why they're buds

endless list of otps: (remake) Callum and Rayla, The Dragon Prince

To have that kind of strength, it's not enough to love someone. You have to trust them to share the burdens you carry. [...] Callum, there's a... burden I'm carrying, and I've kept it a secret. And maybe that's part of what's made things weirder with us. But I think—I know that I trust you to help me carry this. If you're okay with that? Rayla. We've been through a lot together. And a lot has changed. Well, some things have changed—but not everything: I would do anything for you.

#rayllum #limiting this to only like 3 moments per season was. impossible and a crime #i'll have to do one of those Big picspams with them someday or something #maybe once all the seasons are out #tdpedit #the dragon prince #my edits #tdp #otp #otp: the most amazing person i've ever met #shout out to 'hey sad prince' 'we're lucky to have your as our friend. i do trust you'#all their dumb puns to each other esp in s3 and s5 #'just push me-' 'Together <3'#the way this man jumping off a mountain for her was just scratching the surface of his insanity #all the hugs and helping each up and dumb shared smiles and bouncing ideas off each other <33 #i love them So Much #enemies to friends to best friends And lovers to estranged besties to alterous as hell soulmates

This specific frame reminded me of something…

For those who still can’t see it, allow me to elaborate.

#byler #static kiss #the rink o mania lights bouncing off of will's face and the yellow from mike's shirt peaking in the corner #is so real to me #but now comparing it to their actual portraits with this blocking...#i can't unsee it #like tell me why the static kiss looks more like them then my cracked rendition??#maybe bc they're actually kissing in that one and mine is just their faces smashed together #also editing this i felt like a byler back in the day making manips using mileven kissing in s3 lmaooo #this was mostly my unhinged way of trying to visualize what i'm seeing for those that say they can't see it at all #and btw if you don't know what the static kiss is...#i'm sorry i don't feel like explaining it in the tags #just search static kiss on my profile !#and if you still can't see it...#consider yourself lucky

Just now realizing that Sozo was at the top of spore grotto which is the second highest location next to Ratau's shack and he always stayed in the highest part.

Remember how those cordyceps make ants travel to very high points before they burst and spread spores to cover the most ground...

#team sozo would have died whether or not the lamb gave him more mushrooms as he was in like the last stage or infection #the lamb was kinda lucky to get there in time as it seemed the mushroom was puppeting him around even more #cause it really is so creepy how it would bounce around whenever speaking fully for sozo #and how it made him twitch and flail #cotl #cult of the lamb #cotl sozo #sozo cotl #also team sozo is very aware of whats wrong with him as he was a mycologist but is too far gone to do anything himself and the mushroom #also gives him a case of locked in syndrome where he cant do or say anything against it other than vague pleas to save him muddles with #requests for more mushrooms #poor dude indeed.

#a doodley #something about being upset about being too forgiving #in situation where friends tell me they'd be angrier if they were me #but i cant Really be mad... because every person is just a person #and then that makes me upset. because how lucky for the other party that im so forgiving...! 0 consequence for em...! ykwim?#but it also doesnt do me any good to bring it up anymore...bc the moment has passed and again i feel bad being upset...#but again...so unfair...im the only one saddled with the emotions. how lucky for em that im not vindictive...augh #its a cycle. wah.#that quote about being silent about your pain bouncing around my brain #anyway. excited for hammed sandwich time ^_^

born to write my venom/tma crossover fic where Eddie and Flash succumb to the horrors, forced to study for my psych exam

#I want this exam to be over so I don’t feel like I should be studying #anyways y’all this au is fire if I say so myself I am bouncing off the walls and going crazy #Eddie Brock is so corruption core #Flash is very slaughter core but like he doesn’t want to be #Eddie’s not so lucky tho my guy is leaning into the horrors #the corruption is so great for him because I can keep the gay monster romance but I can make it infinitely more fucked up #dial up all the unhealthy bits of symbrock #sorry to my followers who are unaware of what these words mean but!! you should go check tma out it’s very cool #me when the fictional universe has categories I can sort other characters/things into #Sam’s ramblings

belly got a shorty! pyotr in goal! it’s opposite day and the kraken are outforechecking the canes! what a fantastic first game of the season! the kraken waited for me before they could finally decide to play hockey i guess.

#this year i am mansplaining hockey to the men #the dude next to me who talks like vizzini said ‘looks like it was a lucky bounce!’ after the first goal #and i said actually that was a great tip by yanni gourde
