I know why 2FA exists, but in order to change my Apple account password, I just had to: 1. Request the change on my PC 2. It then transferred the request to my (second hand) ipad for verification 3. It then sent my (Android) phone a verification code 4. It THEN sent another verification to my email

I REALLY wish my nervous system didn't react to my attempts at a healthier sleep cycle with a full body panic response. I'm like "baby, please, I'm getting old. I can't walk off a bad night's sleep the way I used to. Please let me go to bed before midnight."

In an alternative timeline where 911 had stuck with their original plan to pair up Maddie and Eddie, I'm genuinely curious what their ship name would have been considering they have 80% of the same letters in their names

When will my beloved (AO3) return from the war (whatever the fuck crashed the site)

ICYMI, Chapter 32 of The Future Mrs Harrington is UP! And, uh, based on the sneak peek it's going to be a doozy:

I'm sad to suddenly realise that due to IRL things, we will never have Bobby, Michael, Buck and Harry getting up to father-son shenanigans in 911.

Related to my last post, my HC for post-canon Steve is and always will be him becoming an EMT. He gains a rep for being completely unflappable in even the weirdest situations so he gets sent to all the "out there" (often supernatural related) calls. He gets hazard pay every shift on a full moon.

One of my favourite things about Stranger Things crossovers is no matter how horrifying the setup of the other medium, my lil traumablorbos are like "Sure. Fuck it, why wouldn't this also happen," while the other characters are like "???!!!"

I'm back up to 80... I love everyone who comments so much this is 100% a me problem

I'm seeing Florence and the Machine this evening (with Paris Paloma opening!) and when I say I am genuinely so excited and also it may change me forever...

Basically I've been craving mac and cheese a lot recently so I did a version with cauliflower and chickpeas blended into the cheese sauce, plus a load of beans and veg mixed in with the pasta, so it's got a higher protein and fibre/vitamin count.

I did a culinary experiment that had every right to end terribly (it involved a technique I'd never done before and tweaking a recipe I'd never done in it's original format) but it didn't! It worked!

I dropped my glasses and they apparently noclipped out of fucking reality. I have a spare set but they suck. In COMPLETELY unrelated news, the fact that my eyes not working means that I have to drop my own money on tests, glasses and contacts that someone with 20/20 doesn't is some bullshit.

*feels my body get anxious for no reason* what is it boy, what do you see?

they should invent a me that isn’t anxious about everything

I started doodling the concept of a 911 supernatural AU (was meant as a treat for after TFMH) intending for it to be super simple, but now it's developing LORE...

It took me over a week (mainly because I posted another chapter partway through) but I have answered all comments!

I know exactly WHY they do it that way but as someone who gets goddamn GUSHING nosebleeds several times a year, the neat lil trickle nosebleeds in most media annoys me so much. I know that type is also fairly possible but some variety please.

Meanwhile, compliments of the actual writer who brought you Sinners;

I want to rework the tags on The Future Mrs Harrington since the majority of them were added when I started the story. Anyone have any suggestions that aren't covered below (some will be removed as I am at capacity)? Also, screenshotted after the character tags for space.

It's such a great problem to have because it means people are engaging with my fic but how the HELL do I have 160 unanswered comments on AO3?! I shall need to do another response blitz ASAP.

hear hear

I keep getting the urge to start writing at like ten minutes to midnight and having to drag my dumb ass away from the keyboard like I'm putting a toddler to bed. Like "don't you dare, your insomnia is awful enough already without crashing out to sleep at 4am!"

Ugh. Turns out if you go to bed at a decent hour, it's easier to get up on the other end. No one has ever had this revelation before. Someone should have said something

One of my favourite things about finishing the first draft is that the two characters whose dynamic is VERY based on Stobin finally reached the point where I could let them BICKER and it made me so happy. I can't wait to have them roast and chirp one another more

How the FUCK is it two weeks until Christmas? I swear it just turned December

The gay hockey show keeps popping up on my feed and one of the actors really reminds me of John Shepard from Stargate Atlantis (I've been having a bit of a Stargate moment) and it is... jarring.

Absolutely buzzing... someone on Tiktok made a series of videos based around The Future Mrs Harrington and as you can imagine I am being SO NORMAL ABOUT IT: www.tiktok.com/@m...dawn/vi... Thank you so much to Megan Dawn for the laughs and motivation to get back to the next chapter!

🎉MY FIRST DRAFT IS FINISHED. I HAVE COMPLETED 85K WORDS OF AN ORIGINAL PROJECT.🎉 🎉IT IS PROBABLY A BIT SHIT IN PLACES BUT THAT'S WHAT EDITS AND REWRITES ARE FOR.🎉

Genuinely, I've been working on this project on and off for 5 years, including the 2 years of my MA. It will need HEAVY rewrites before it's fit to be read by anyone who doesn't either A. Love Me or B. Understand writing but still, it's wild to be so close to finishing this stage of the project.

*Whispers* I'm four chapters away from finishing the first draft of my original project

It's also INSANE that this fic currently clocks in at 119,540 words, and probably has at least another 30k in it before it's done. Meanwhile, my original work has been sitting at 50k for an embarrassingly long time.

Season Four FINALLY begins properly in The Future Mrs Harrington! Read it here now: archiveofourown.org/works/455460...

...huh. Both Vine and Unus Annus* might be coming back. *MIGHT. They could just be trolling. It would not be out of character

Being obsessed with ST & The Pitt currently is making me think of Stobin (and the rest of the Spicy 6 a lesser extent) accidentally becoming the crypids of ERs up and down the country. EMT!Steve is also one of those "I'm pretty sure I broke 3 fingers in my hand but I still finished my shift" types

i swear it’s my hobby

Uninstalled Tiktok to try and be more productive. I will need someone to DM me if Buddie goes canon.

Blatent Bad Place repost klaxxon! Doomed by the Narrative? No, Steve is doomed to be IN the narrative. Even when he bails from Hawkins, he just continuously stumbles into other types of story and shenanigans.

I am not immune to paranormal relationships because I just screamed SO LOUD over the Dan and Phil confirmation

Having a career in IT sure is... something...

Anyone got recs on how to add realistic bloodstains to a shirt (cosplay, I swear)? Most fake blood is more targeted at on skin application. I'm planning on cosplaying Remmick at MCM at the end of the month

To the shock of very few, getting a bit more sleep caused an almost immediate improvement (this is not as simple a solution as it may seem as I have suffered insomnia pretty much from birth). It isn't Gone but it is Better.

Just as I was starting to feel like I was getting my shit together, here comes Seasonal Depression with the steel chair. FML. It's especially fucking rude because Oct-Nov-Dec is often my favourite time of year & now my stupid brain won't let me enjoy it. (It will pass and I will be fine but ugh)

Obviously the whole time fucking sucked, but in 2020 a lot of UK supermarkets would sell a box of basically a week's groceries. It was one size fits all and obviously FA good if you had specific dietary requirements but I wish that was still a thing, it took so much brainspace out of restocking

Tell me why in the same month I swore I'd be more sensible with my money, I have bought tickets for both MCR and Florence and the Machine's London shows next year...

9-1-1 thoughts (I said I wasn’t working on any FIC until my ST WIP was done, shut up). An influencer comes to the 118 firehouse (maybe maggot girl) to do a fluff piece, and catches footage of Bobby and Buck cooking together. The Internet goes FERAL for them and it goes super viral.

*Deep breath* The Prologue to Season 4 of The Future Mrs Harrington... has just been posted, along with a long apology for taking so feckin' long: archiveofourown.org/works/455460...

I think that realistically I probably won't be able to finish all of my ST WIPs as the hyperfix left the building last year. But once TFMH is done, I will at least try and finish The Care and Feeding of Feral Teenagers and my crossovers. If I can, I'll probably totally rewrite the Lost Boys one
