okay but i haven't seen anyone make this connection but it's the first thing i thought of the second spoon popped on screen (even before he was spoon). he is literally watch (from spooksville). like, book series turned into a show, named after an object he always has on him, knows stuff everyone else doesn't, gets them into places, smart, kinda nerdy, supportive, besties with the main girl(s). he's so watch, i love him.

The used bookstore didn’t have much of what I was looking for, but it did have these! Three Christopher Pikes and a Betty Ren Wright!

Afraid of the DARK?
Happy Spooky Season! Afraid of the dark? Actually, even if you THINK you are, it’s not the DARK that scares you.
Doc Heath here; your Friendly Neighborhood Neuromechanic!
Think about it. You don’t REALLY believe the DARK is a harm to you but, rather what might be HIDING IN THE DARK.
In other words, your brain - behind the murky curtains of your awareness - has a whole CAULDRON of things you BELIEVE are a danger to you: Lions and tigers and bears…OH MY!
Or is it ghosts & goblins & things that go BUMP in the night?
Likely, it’s things much more down to Earth and not even in the dark at all (except the dark corners of your own mind): A loved one not loving you; losing things you want such as a relationship, a job, your health.
The next time you THINK you’re afraid of the DARK, think DEEPER. Ask yourself what SPECIFICALLY am I afraid of, THEN ask yourself how ACCURATE & REALISTIC is that SPECIFIC thought.
Double, double toil & trouble; fire burn & cauldron bubble!
(The cauldron is the mind; the fire, your THOUGHTS; the bubbling, your LIFE).
We FIRST engineer our thoughts; THEN our thoughts engineer our lives.

First Line Tag Game! Rules: List the first lines of the last ten stories you published (or works in progress if you’re feeling brave lol). Look to see any patterns you notice yourself, and see if anyone else notices any!
okay imma thank you first (i love this game omg) and say that i WANTED to be ambitious and do both published fics and wips, but i started on wips first and this is long af. so here we are. over half are hoa fics but i threw in some random oneshots for other fandoms.
[10 WORKS IN PROGRESS]
#1 the hard part (hoa; 03. in neddie au series)
Two days. Two days after Amber gave the breakup news, two days of incredibly uncomfortable Sibuna meetings, two days of Eddie blatantly lying to himself that ending their whole tryst wasn't a big deal. Two days of all of that, and then Nina sent him to the clearing in the woods for a solo mission but showed up five minutes after he did.
Two days, and she told him that waiting for things to cool down wasn't cutting it for her. He took in her words slowly, but he took them in, and he took in the meeting place, and then he took her in.
#2 golden opportunity (hoa; jeroy college au)
It's the day after sophomore finals week ends and Joy honestly has to wonder how the fuck Mick convinced everyone to go out drinking in celebration. Drinking itself is fine; drinking with Mick at the helm is a lot like trying to swim upstream without a paddle. No good could possibly come from it.
#3 i summoned you (hoa; nina&eddie time loop s2 finale au)
Nina doesn't remember events normally when Senkhara's using her.
The mask is like a film over her eyes, everything distorted just enough that she doesn't feel like herself. She knows what she's doing when she pushes the mask into her skin, but the moments after shift into slow motion, a nightmare she can't stop.
#4 the hookup (hoa; jamber college au)
Try as he might, Jerome Clarke could not, with whatever remnants of a conscience he had left, claim he didn't know who she was.
#5 definition of an extended play (btr; kucy college soulmate au)
The first time he met Lucy Stone, he figured some part of his soul just knew, even without the mark.
His head's the one that has some catching up to do.
#6 exile (good witch; nace post-s5 finale)
Smiling up at her onstage giving her graduation speech is the very least he can do. He can smile, and clap, and even cheer like all the cheesy coming-of-age movies she'd made him watch over the years.
What he can't do is gather her up in his arms afterward. He can't press a kiss to her temple, congratulating her with words but also with every single love language there is. He can't hold her hand as they all go out to eat before heading back to Grey House for their joint grad party. He can't look her in the eyes and revel in the fact that she knows everything he's feeling, and that she feels it too.
He can't do any of that, so he smiles and hopes it's enough to tide him over.
It isn't.
#7 new place, same feeling (supah ninajs; amanda/flint post-s2)
Spending the summer away from Empire City and the dojo was kind of fucking with her.
#8 road trip to your heart (spooksville; adally +watch road trip)
It starts like this:
road trip. u me and watch.
be seen in public w you? oh hell nah
i'm serious
so am i ;)
adam.
senior year.
senior prom.
you need an opportunity to step up your game before you ask me to it, and i'm more than happy to give you that chance.
#9 it's a wedding, not the end of the world (hoa; after anubis series, jeroy wedding)
kindly join us for
the wedding of
JEROME CLARKE & JOY MERCER
5:00pm | July 31st | Calderstone Park: Ornamental Garden
~lil skip ahead of a joy, patricia, willow, & kt group chat~
[willow] you don't have to worry about a thing, joy!
this'll be the best wedding ever!
[kt] agreed! :)
[patricia] sit back and relax, we've got this
five months later...
"Holy shit, we don't got this."
Alfie kept his face smushed on the outside of the leaning cake box and breathed out harshly. "A little HELP??"
#10 in more ways than one (hoa; neddie s2 soulmate au)
Nina spent the morning after Senkhara marked Amber feeling braindead and searching for long socks.
She felt helpless. She couldn't help getting marked herself; she barely cared about that anymore. Besides Victor seeing it and the occasional burn, it wasn't too bad. Sometimes she could even pretend this was just another fun mystery like the beginning of the previous year. But then Fabian lied to her, he got a mark himself, and she realized that, yet again, she couldn't protect anyone. She couldn't even protect herself against Rufus in their final showdown--Jerome had thrown the flies.
so the trend i'm seeing here is i like starting w a (hopefully) intriguing hook, usually just one line. i try to make it at least a little ominous yet simultaneously all-encompassing of what the fic's about. but i already kinda knew that, so lemme know if you see any other trends? and if you wanna do this game, i tag you! :)

ELECTRIC LOVE ~ CHAPTER 18 (WATCH WAVERLY FEM!OC)
Masterlist
Previous
Word Count: 1.2K
Synopsis: On the run from danger, Jules relies on Watch to overcome her fears. 
CW: mild anxiety (fear of heights); fluff; Ann being a jerk
Tumblr media
All five of them rushed through the woods, panicking and nearly out of breath. Bare branches and rough, scraggly leaves whipped by, nipping at their arms and faces. The homunculi from Shadowmire were in hot pursuit. Ann had advised them to take particular items from the garden, despite Moorpark's disapproval. She reasoned that she couldn't take them herself without raising suspicions and asked the others to 'break in' to assist her search while she waited outside. However, she neglected to tell them that the area would be guarded by these overbearing, ghastly creatures who were now tracking them closely. And, if she were caught amongst these thieves, she too would be as good as dead.
"I think---there's an old bridge--up ahead." Ann panted out, leading the group. She more or less knew the route to take, but she also put herself first in line to give her the most distance between herself and the homunculi, lest they be caught. They burst out of the foliage to indeed find the archaic structure. "There! Just up ahead!"
They approached the rickety bridge, the stone pillars seemed well-intact but the wooden slats forming the actual bridge were questionable. "This looks like it's at least a hundred years old," Sally said.
"I would estimate maybe two..." Watch piped up.
"Well, come on, we haven't got much time!" Ann impressed upon them. As they reached the precipice of the bridge and assessed its footing, Jules froze.
"I…I can't." Jules said as they stepped forward. "I'm afraid of heights. Like, petrified. I can't make it across."
"Hey," Sally said softly, reassuring her, "you can do it."
"Yeah, we're all crossing together!" Adam enthused, optimistically. They tried to coax her, but she stilled at the edge once again and began shaking. 
"Oh my God," Ann intoned with frustration, "we don't have time for this!"
"It's not like we can leave her!" Sally yelled in response. She looked back over to Jules and noticed that Watch was standing in front of her, speaking calmly and in a low volume.
"We're right here with you. I'm right here. Just…take my hand, okay? I'll lead you from one side to the other." He offered his hand and she took it, numbly. Somewhere, in the recesses of her brain, she realized how truly monumental this was for him, to offer his touch in order to be helpful…and she became aware of the humming sensation that holding his hand gave her. "Go ahead, guys,” he nodded to the rest of the group and turned his focus back to Jules. “Alright, we're going to just walk over slowly and you're going to just look at me, okay? We're not looking down. I'm just gonna guide you. That's it, one foot in front of the other." 
As they traipsed along the bridge, Adam and Sally looked back at the sight. Watch had never been so outwardly patient and understanding before. The two of them exchanged a look of realization, their shared best friend was far beyond an average crush; this was something much different. Still, they pressed on and saved this silent conversation to be spoken about on another day.
“That’s it. Don’t forget to breathe, either. Just gently, slowly, deep in and deep out. You are doing great.” Watch susurrated along, praising each step they made across the bridge, a beacon of constant reassurance and praise. Jules misstepped and shrieked as her ankle rolled unwittingly, absolutely certain she would fall to her doom. But Watch shot out another hand, bracing her arm and drawing back her perspective, “Hey, hey, it’s all right,” he soothed as if talking to a trapped and rabid animal. Her eyes snapped back up to his face, finding a compassionate gaze framed by thick black plastic and lenses. “Just a few more steps.” He tugged her along until they made it to the other side, feet hitting solid ground joyously, reuniting with their friends.
“Finally,” Ann groaned, “let’s get going. The bridge wasn’t going to kill us but the homunculi might.” She set off at a rushed pace and the others were quick to follow. It wasn’t until they passed a thicket of trees that Watch realized he still held Jules’ hand in his. Initially, it made sense to lead her to follow Ann, to propel her onward, out of her frightened state, after conquering the bridge. Now, however, it was less logical. Yet, he did not want to let go. She, too, realized shortly after and dropped her hand from his, filled with gratitude for his contact and commitment, but not wanting to push it further than it needed to be, for his sake. She didn’t want to burden him with that, but he felt the lack immediately, a phantom tingling as though her hand was still entrenched in his.
They soon found that they were no longer being hunted and could navigate their way home comfortably, at an ambling pace. Without the threat of present danger, Sally took to her usual bickering with Ann, blaming her yet again for their situation, but Jules and Watch lingered in the back of the line together. “Thank you, for everything back there.” Jules said softly, still embarrassed at requiring that much help to pass over a bridge, withering or not.
“Like Sally said, it’s not like we were going to leave you,” Watch hummed in response. He acted nonchalant, as if it were the obvious thing to do.
“Yeah, but no one else dragged me across.” She said, huffing a bit. She felt ridiculous that it was even necessary. Looking back on it, it should have been a journey as simple for her as it was for the rest of them.
“I didn’t drag you, I … assisted you. There’s a big difference.”
“Uh huh. Always with the semantics and word specificity.”
“Always.” Watch agreed, a smile playing at his lips as he looked forward, disregarding her concern. 
“I’m just sorry it was needed.” She cast her eyes down, still trudging along and he took note of her defeated posture, “But I’m incredibly grateful that you did all that, don’t get me wrong!” She rushed out. Watch took a step in front of her, forcing her to halt her stride. He placed a hand on either of her upper arms, feeling the scruff of the loose flannel there. Always ever-present. He liked the consistency. She looked up, and the look in her eyes signified to him that he should indeed tell her what he was going to.
“Listen, it was not a bother, or anything like that. I did not mind and I would do it a million times over just to get you across. I would never leave you behind. Okay?” He was asking for her agreement, her acknowledgement of what he had said, but all she could think was ‘How could I ever be just okay after he said that and looked at me like that?’ 
Her heart was pounding and she wasn’t sure she would be steady on her feet if he were to release her. But she mumbled a simple, “Okay,” in response anyway.

Latest haul!
I made another visit to my local book store and you’ll be able to see what I purchased below. I’ve come to realize this year that reading books and purchasing books are two completely different hobbies of mine. With as many books that I have in my collection at the moment, I’m surprised that people aren’t stopping by my house thinking that another branch has opened up that’s apart of the city…

Spooksville ✳ New Gilmore Girls Story
Summary: When Lorelai moved into Stars Hollow with her twins, Rory and Delilah, she found it to be a quaint little town. However, Rory and Delilah discover that the teens there call it Spooksville, instead, because of the strange goings-on in the town. Inspired by the TV show Spooksville.
Genres: Alternate Universe, Spooksville!AU, Supernatural, Mystery
Sneak Peek...
"You two need to be on your toes if you want to survive Spooksville," the blonde girl said.
Rory sounded confused, "Spooksville?"
"You two are new here, so you call it Stars Hollow," the boy explained. "Those who know call it Spooksville."
To Delilah, that sounded like some smug in-joke on the internet. Like 'only the real fans know it's called this or that'.

Does anyone have those shows where you’re not entirely entertained when actually watching it but when you’re not watching it it slowly consumes your mind and suddenly you have a new obsession or is it just me?

No idea if anyone in the spooksville series fandom is still active, but I found a post on Reddit comparing the books and series, and it included a (supposed) interview with one of the shows writers which I though was interesting. There was allegedly some episodes written for a season two and they sound super interesting!
Also the episodes and their summaries:
(I know the photo is hard to read so I typed out what it said under it)
Tumblr media
“I can’t tell you how disappointed I was that we didn’t get a second season. Executive producer Jane Starz and I tried everything we could think of to get it to happen. And it almost did. The Hub ordered six more scripts and at least five of them were written before the plug was pulled. I love them so much to this day that I am heartbroken that they weren’t produced. Here they are:
GIRLS SCHOOL- Sally is sent to the Lilith Academy for Young Ladies, a snooty boarding school that also happens to contain a coven of immortal witches. I wrote this one.
GAMEMASTER- A great script by Ernie Altbacker. The kids are playing a game of GUILLOTINE (established in an earlier episode) when they are accidentally whisked away to a pocket dimension that is a real-world version of the deadly game
HAND IN MARRIAGE- I love this story so much. Jeremy Adams wrote this one. Officer Dugan, who has been dating Watch’s mother, wants to propose to her but two things stand in his way: Watch for one. And also Dugan’s own severed hand, which has crawled back into his life to destroy him!
REWIND- In Mitch Watson’s brilliant script, the gang is sucked into a cursed VHS of a terrible slasher-style horror movie from the 80’s whose director made a deal with the devil to get his awful picture made.
BATTLE OF THE BANDS- Genius writer Jenifer Keene wrote this. Watch and Adam have to infiltrate the school talent show where they suspect a local metal band of using the event to usher in the end of the world.
MASQUERADE- The network wanted more love triangle stuff and I was glad to oblige, especially since we had added Cindy, so it would have been a love pentagon (with Anne included). This was also an episode with a big dance at Shadowbrooke, which I thought could be a sort of prom for our actors, who were always on set. I felt bad that they didn’t get a prom.
We had a whole plan for season two and these were just the tip of the iceberg. I hope if any Spooksville fans read this article, they see these episodes in their dreams.”

WHAT DO YOU LET CONTROL YOU?
(Don’t be a ZOMBIE)
Where is YOUR “Locus of Control”?
INTERNAL or EXTERNAL
Doc Heath here:
Your friendly Neighborhood NeuroMechanic!
Locus of control is a concept that teaches we have a choice of what we allow to direct our lives; what’s INSIDE of US or what’s OUT THERE in the world.
Widespread woo-woo PSEUDOpsychological social media-baked FAKERY would have you believe you have NO POWER in the face of those LABELED “toxic”, “manipulators”, “controlling”, “gaslighters”.
These mucked up memes paint a picture of so-called toxic, manipulating, controlling, gas-lighting folks as possessing CELESTIAL, SUPERHUMAN, GOD-LIKE POWER over YOU and your very BRAIN cells.
HOGWASH!!!
DON’T DRINK THE KOOL-AID!!!
BTW … many of these memes are JUST trying to sell you their app!
TAKE BACK YOUR POWER!
Realize YOU have the ABILITY to DECIDE what YOU are going to THINK regardless of what ANYONE else has to say about it; even so-called social media ‘influencers’.
Refuse to be like the OTHER “SHEEPLE” swallowing the social media “toxicity” claptrap whole.
Your thoughts are YOUR OWN.
MASTERMIND YOUR LIFE!
You can begin developing your own INTERNAL LOCUS of CONTROL today by bringing awareness to your OWN thinking. Ask yourself, “How accurate & realistic are my thoughts? How well is this particular thought serving me?”
OWN your own THINKING!!!
Be aware that many on social media want to keep YOU under the THUMB of their POWER-DRAINING influence.
THINKING for yourself is a THREAT to them.
I know because I debate these individuals all the time on various PSYCHO-BABBLE social feeds.
But be of good cheer! I’VE GOT YOUR BACK! We’re in this TOGETHER! Reach out anytime you need a wingman to help you fly HIGH ABOVE the nonsense.
Welcome to the TBAL TEAM!
