Writing question because I honestly can't choose: Do I write in the 90s au this morning or the WNBA rpf? Decisions, decisions.

Next Charlize action movie when, I ask!

Paige Bueckers, on the left, is being pulled off the ground by their hands by Kelsey Plum, on the right. Paige is in her Unrivaled Breeze BC uniform and Kelsey is in her silver Unrivaled Phantom BC uniform. Superimposed over them is the title of the fic "Way Back When..."

While Ao3 was down, I had some time.

I do *not* mean to be an asshole, but I really don't understand why they couldn't have used the actual REM version of Nightswimming on the newest ep of Shrinking. Took me entirely out of the moment. Reader, I booed. Out loud. I even enjoyed Jason Segel's musical talents at the top of the ep. Just.

NO! Oh god. I'm so sorry.

Paige Bueckers in her Dallas Wings jersey is bent over with Kelsey Plum in her LA Sparks jersey leaning into her. Paige is smiling and Kelsey is talking animatedly. The basketball court behind them is a blur.

Well, good news. My brain is available for creative writing again. Still a little sick, but less so. Gonna write some more of my boys in the morning.

Gotta love how a sinus infection just holds your creativity captive. Like. Am I daydreaming and plotting? Yes. Can I hold it long enough to get it down?

Anyway, I've used two entire boxes of tissues and rewatched all of She-Ra and I think I'm finally ready to sit down and write again.

A follow-up:

See it in a theater. Oh my god. At least do that.

DUDE WATCHIN WITH THE BRONTES: Panel 1) Charlotte, pointing: What about that one. Panel 2) Dirty man in a stovepipe top hat: What the hell are you looking at? Panel 3) Emily: NICE. Charlotte: I know right? Anne, frowning: That guy was an asshole! Panel 4) Emily, from off side: What about that one? Charlotte: Honestly, Anne. You have no taste. Anne: I’m just telling the truth! Panel 5) A dark, brooding gentleman stands alone. Panel 6) Emily, staring: So passionate! Charlotte: So mysterious. Emily, frowning: If you like alcoholic dickbags! Panel 7) Emily: Anne, you are SO inappropriate! Charlotte: No wonder nobody buys YOUR books! Anne stands looking at her sisters with her arms crossed. Panel 8) Emily, pointing: What about that one? Charlotte: SO BROODING. Anne stands behind them, frowning.

Going to see “Wuthering Heights” with my sister and our mutual best friends tonight and all I can think about is that old Dude Watchin’ With The Brontës comic from Hark, A Vagrant by Kate Beaton.

I have reached three chapters of this silliness and realized I never did rate it. I should probably rate it. Although there’s nothing that currently warrants it to be rated.

Oh nooooo!

I know that rpf can really be something sometimes. I am trying not to be terribly disrespectful. That said, please do not take this seriously. I just went, “Ohhhhh, that would be such a good idea/plot for a fic,” so I am writing it. Sorrrrryyyyyy. 😬😬😬

Basketball player Kelsey Plum is listening to fellow baller Paige Bueckers shit talk on a basketball court. There is a hoop behind and between them. Superimposed over them is the title of the fanfiction linked in this skeet, “Way Back When…”

It is 2030 playoffs. The LA Sparks v the Minnesota Lynx. Plum is standing, dumbstruck, when she finally realizes what Paige was really saying back in Dallas all those years ago.

Do I post the new fic here or do I start another account for that pseud? That is the question. Because it absolutely does not belong on main. And it is not specifically Ted Lasso-related sports, tho it still is sports.

Taking on challenges is a lot like riding a horse isn't it? If you're comfortable while you do it, you're probably doing it wrong. / Ted Lasso S01E01 Pilot #TedLasso

This is only my second au and man, I'm having so much fun.

The world was too sad this week, so I let myself have some time to process instead of writing my misery into everything. I don’t know that any of us are past it, or will ever really be, but at least there’s the sun. And coffee. And wi-fi. So I’m writing this morning. 💛

“Hey. You ever been sittin across from someone, just trying to have a normal conversation, fighting every urge inside yourself to scream, ‘YEAH!’”

I can’t get enough of the things that dummy says to Laura Mohr.

OH MY GOD GIVE YOUR BALLS A TUG. (I loooooove Shoresy!)

Nice.
