Over Dessert

:: Liana and Beverly are offered dessert, and the conversation eases the tension a bit more, fortunately. Part of the Edison’s Mirror universe. ::


Back to Another Idea
To the Edison's Mirror Index
On to



Aidan lifted Beverly’s empty glass. “Would you like some more? Or perhaps a serving of the berry crumble that Vic made for dessert? I adore reheating things in the microwave, it’s almost less work for me than walking to the kitchen.”

Liana brightened. “That sounds good!” She turned a guilty glance to Beverly. “Is it okay?”

“Of course it is,” the older woman assured. “I’d like some as well. Could… Could you explain a bit more about how you would annoy Declan, basically by existing?”

Vic snickered. Loudly. “He’s trying to stake a claim on Liana, and following her around like a stalker. The fact that I’ve been seen with her--male, about her age-- Well, that makes me a massive threat to his ‘approach’. Ed’s too young, and Aidan’s too old, but hanging out with them is a legitimate reason for me to be around her, which will drive Declan up a wall if he’s a classic stalker.”

Project Title: Dancing like everyone is watching
Fandom: Doctor Who (1963)
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/73844531
Summary: The Master has a plan to take over a minor galactic empire, but of course the Doctor has to interfere. Only in this case the Master's supposed allies might actually be plotting against him, and the Doctor uses the ball as a distraction to tell the Master what he knows. Surrounded by aliens who want them for dinner, their only hope of escaping is working together.
Warnings: no archive warnings, but discussions of aliens who want to eat them
Characters: The Master (Delgado), Third Doctor
Pairings: Third Doctor/The Master
When I Started: July/2024
How I Lost My Shit: I went with another story for that event and ended up not finishing this.
How I Finished My Shit: This event was the perfect excuse, and being matched with someone who also loves classic who was great for my motivation! These are my favourite idiots, I just needed a little push.

 After what's been an entire month and a quarter, I've finally finished watching through Silent Hill f! As expected I'm a way different person than when I started and a lot of the shit I've said before has most definitely aged like soggy milk, but it's all part of the experience. I really want to get the game myself 'cause while I got the wider context with the person I was watching, it still feels like there's stuff I can find. But based on my current life schedule I feel like that would cause a lot of issues (I'll likely get it on christmas tho). I don't know if I'll ever do another media review on this again, but I definitely want to make some posts on how to 'speedrun' the game story or just a guide on how to find all the important lore 'cause I can imagine the internet is lacking that right now.

On the more fandom side of things, I'm definitely gonna be writing fanfic. The toxic yuri (and crackship yaoi) has got me hooked and with a story this complex, there's no way I'm not gonna make something from that. I already have a few fics in mind, but I need to stabilise my life a bit more before I go into creating anything. But yeah, shit's pretty good right now.

The street woke to a blaze of color, red and orange and gold, that spilled from the trees down to the sidewalks, up lampposts and mailboxes, and flooded across porches and balconies. The little spirit in charge of coloring the fall leaves preened from its perch on the highest roof peak, admiring its work and the people’s reactions both. It had gotten such a scolding from its supervisor for going outside its designated areas and for using up more than its share of materials, but it thought anything worth doing at all was worth overdoing gloriously.

dropping balls

I ended up dropping one of my classes this term. It was a social media for business class that I added just because I thought I needed to be half time, but it ended up being an enormous time-suck. Everything had to be done in groups, but my group almost immediately fell to infighting. I got left out of email chains, the professor just told me to "trust my team leader" when I expressed concern that I'd gotten a 0 grade based on what my team leader finalized, and basically life is too short to put up with that.

It was a late drop so I've got to take the W on my paperwork but I am beyond caring.

Meanwhile Bug is getting bullied at school by some of her classmates, but the administration seems to be working hard to fix it so we're just doing our best to support her and give advice and in general like... ugh, tweens. But she also has really good days at school, and doesn't have a ton of friends but has some good ones. I'll probably make a longer post about family stuff behind a lock, if I can get my head straight long enough to put words together.

I just wanted to post something because I haven't in a bit.
