rainy Monday

[jade_sabre]

It's a rainy Monday, which isn't helping my mood, which is grumpy because I'm waiting to find out where I'm going to go when WP leaves which, if we're counting, is going to be in approximately sixteen days, even though it's not official, and last night we cuddled and ate ice cream and watched Casablanca and I don't want to go back to doing that sort of thing by myself.

and I was doing really well last week too I promise, after my meltdown. I made plans and moved forward and figured some things out! And now I'm waiting for follow-up on those things, which is why I don't know where I'm going to go. Also, organizing getting from here to there is going to be a headache and a half, as if I don't have enough stress on me already.

HOW DID THIS HAPPEN THIS POST IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE ABOUT ME IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE A CHEAP SHOT TO GENERATE COMMENTS AND THEREFORE MAIL IN MY INBOX BECAUSE i am so bored because, as I was explaining to Emerald, the only things I have to do right now involve either a) cleaning the kitchen (never-ending chore) or b) getting ready to leave (do not want do not want do not want). Also there was a thing the other day about getting more house cleaning done in ten minutes before guests arrive than in past six months, and that's about how I operate--I don't feel any need to get things done around the apartment until WP calls to tell me he's starting the hour-long commute to come home. And since I never know when that's going to be, I just sit.

Lush is telling me my strength or weakness is feeling secure, my subconscious is calm, and my aspiration is motivation, just based on their new make up colors.



ANYWAY so to do things, here are some requests for prompts, because I'm even too lazy to write these days. (I hate rainy Mondays.) Expect drabble-y things in response.


1. Give me a character or pairing or something and a "five times" prompt.

---

2. Comment, and I'll do an insta-drabble ficlet thing, prompted from whatever icon you use.

---
4. Give me:

1. A line from a song or a poem.
2. The title of a book.
3. A color.
4. An emotion.
[5. A fandom, if you like.]

I should have made an actual Korra post, other than I AM SO BROKEN RIGHT NOW. The bit with Noatak and Tarlock at the very end broken me enough for me not to really care about what happened afterwards aside from WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH GHOST!AANG and WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH LIN GOT HER BENDING BACK. /bawl But in retrospect, you know, that ghost!Aang thing happened, uh, really quickly.

HAHAHAHA I laugh because well there is that scene in my head of Relius bending to look over young!Attolia's shoulder as she writes something by candlelight and they have that whole mentor/student relationship that is tinged with UST that resolves itself the first time he watches her watch a man being granched beheaded or some such* and realizes she can never be loved?

oh is that how that ends. well. glad I figured that out.

ATTOLIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

*I was going to say "killed" and then realized that she, you know, watched her suitor be shot through the heart and poisoned her first husband. So it's a bit of a tricky thing, but it's doable, because we know about her mask but we also know when she was a young monarch she went to fetch her nurse and threw more tantrums, so there's a balance between the young queen who is trying to hold onto the vestiges of girlhood and the girl who has closed the stone door to her stone tower and won't open it again until Eugenides comes knocking. And maybe losing that camraderie with Relius--fully becoming his queen, not his student--is what closes that last gap. Or at least in this iteration.

Oh, I'm supposed to actually fic this? Right. WE'LL SEE.
