are we not feeling very pious today, brother lionel
Me: Ugh, man, I feel awful. But not like sick. Like a little depressed maybe? So tired… I want to do something, but my eyeballs may fall out of my head if I do. My left ear hurts, too. Am I getting an ear infection?
My migraine, putting on brass knuckles: Yeah, probably an ear infection.

hello writers.
Camellia Station officially has over 500 hits!
I know that’s not indicative of people who read it in full or individual, unique users or whatever
Still though… it feels like a huge milestone and I’m proud of myself 🥹
It’s my first long fic (and my second fic since I started writing fiction four months ago). Idk just feels special.
If you’re interested, check it out on AO3!
Omg the Dwarf is so cute I just wanna snuggle them~
As usual, they are all on my red bubble, ready to be stuck onto whatever your heart desires
Finally, I drew the other half of the cast, it took a long time and a lot of effort, but here they are. I might make a third post where they're rearranged to make more sense and sell those as prints on Red Bubble. This was a lot of fun, I'm not sure if I will, but I might do expanded if this gets enough traction

And thats them all! Hope y'all enjoyed
I had such high hopes for how much I would write this week.
But then I discovered Look Outside and put like 15 hours into that instead.
And my first Rarepair week fic ballooned out of my control.
Life amirite
Is this the inverse of the Tiffany problem?
I’m watching Splash (1984) which is a romcom about a guy who falls in love with a mermaid, and when she chooses a human name she chooses Madison and guy says “that’s not a real name, but alright” which seems to imply that Madison was not a name until at least the 80’s and all girls named Madison are actually named after the mermaid. thought you should know
I did it! I finished one Rarepair Week prompt! Yay!
Here, have a teaser :)
Joja Workers Unite (Sam/Shane)
Since Shane and Sam can't unionize to get more time off they decide to do the next best thing: get married.
Of course, nothing goes to plan.
"I know our love is unconventional," Sam said, loud enough that half the store could've heard him. "But please, I want you to make an honest man out of me!"
Shane realized too late that Sam was only half looking at him. The other man's eyes scanned the aisle at Shane's back. And too late Shane realized there were footsteps coming towards them.
"Gentlemen, is there a problem here?" The sight of Morris, arms crossed and scowling, waited for Shane when he turned around.
"No issues. We're just--" Shane started, but Sam bumped him aside.
"I'm heartbroken, bossman! I know I'm being loud but my heart has literally shattered. My man doesn't want to claim me!" Sam gestured to Shane with both arms.
"And this is something you need to do at work because--?"
"Love knows no time or place," Sam said with a soft sniffle. "When the spirit of love calls, you answer. And Shane answered with a 'no'."
"Samson, I have no idea what that means and quite frankly I'm losing my patience," Morris deadpanned.
"He won't marry me, boss! My work hubs won't put a shell on it!"
"This is startling news for so many reasons," Morris said. "Not least of which is that Joja discourages employee fraternization."
"Well I have no idea what that means!" Sam was getting more worked up by the minute.
Their conversation went around in circles for a while longer and Shane couldn't be bothered to follow it. Shane started coming around somewhere in there, though, because some time off wouldn't be the worst thing. Most of his PTO had been spent nursing colds or sleeping off hangovers. He rarely used the time off for anything fun. Maybe he could take Jas on vacation? She'd been bugging him to go to the beach to collect shells, too, even though it was cold. They could do both with the time fake marrying Sam would buy him.
Shane cleared his throat. The two men stopped bickering and stared at him.
"Sam... uh... Samson? Yeah. Okay." He took a steadying breath before he faced Sam head-on. "I can see now that you're so passionate about... our love? I didn't think you were serious, but now I know... Now... yeah, I do know. So I accept your proposal."

I haven’t been on tumblr for very long, so I’m a little thrown when I see classic literature posts. Like a lot of them. About the same work.
So I’m like did a new edition come out and everyone’s super excited or have these little freaks (affectionate) been doing this the whole time?
And y’all have always been here. Keeping the lights on.
I think that’s magical.
Yay!! Shells is back!!
Elliott and Willy being pals and swapping writing tips/life advice soothed my soul in a way I didn’t know I needed ❤️
