The top of this week was taken up with preparations for travel to a different city with the family. We used to live there and my husband has family living there, so he took kiddo to visit his dad and sister while my dad and I took care of business. The business part went well, husband and kiddo had fun on their family visit, and we traveled back without incident. The upshot should be that we can worry significantly less about money starting in November, especially if I can get some work to tide us over.
I had a slight misadventure on the way when I thought I might miss the train out and had it canceled in advance, giving my apologies to Dad. Unexpectedly I ended up arriving at the station a little earlier and ran up to grab a standing ticket last minute to make the trip after all. That was a bit of a surprise for Dad when I called him from the same train he was on lol. I'm still so bad about time, a trait that has not endeared me to employers over the years who have had to deal with me.
We had scheduled the trip on Wednesday because Friday was Independence Day and there were no train tickets to be gotten on Thursday, the day before the start of the long weekend. After the trip we rested and slid into the holiday weekend, spending it at home watching the celebration events and venturing out on walks. Today the husband went out to GM a tabletop game so kiddo and I were on our own, cooking and eating Japanese-style curry befor we went out walking. We're all showered and relaxing now, and I wiped down the bedroom floor. Showers feel extra fulfilling if I get a cleaning task in beforehand! :D
With the weekend drawing to a close, next week will be more waiting and looking for work in between rest and chores. Going to be poking a couple of people on stalled publishing projects and putter around on editing and technical tasks. Maybe some creative tasks too if I can hack it. It's still sticky and unpleasant outside but there's a bit of autumn in the air, and we'll be feeling the chill before long.

As it is for yuletide originally, there are basically only two matching fandoms, but it will give you an idea on what I like. https://yuletide.dreamwidth.org/307012.html?thread=4959300#cmt4959300
IF YOU ARE NOT COOL WITH ANY CRUELTIDE TYPE OF STUFF, DON'T STRESS, I WILL LOVE FLUFF FICS JUST AS MUCH!!!
Also, if you write sex?
My favourite characters always bottom. And if you decide to write omegaverse, they are omegas.
I am not really into modern AUs and such.
Here is an analysis of Qi Rong that I absolutely love, and i would love it if you read it and wrote Qi Rong from that perspective. archiveofourown.org/works/42459345
My headcanon is that he was tortured to death, which is why he is so...well. Go as brutal as you like, or just gloss it over.
As for Shi Wudu...the thought of him being willing to do anything to save his younger sibling is my favourite part of him, and I could see him enter both of these relationships from that angle. WHile I am more able to see his relationship become more healthy with He Xuan (after A LOT OF work), with Jun WU I cant see it not be horribly toxic, unhealthy and dead-dovey because, well, Jun wu.
JIn Guangyao is my favourite. Please dont woobify him or make him this forever in control, calculating evil mastermind please! Layers please.
I am willing that his relationships with Lan Qiren and JIang Cheng are healthy and romantic, but not with Jin Guangshan (duh). Wen Ruohan can go either way, there is a good story behind both options.
I like the headcanon that he and the others were actually struggling kpop stars that Jinu picked and turned to demons, but i can totally vibe with him being decades or centuries old. I am really interested in his backstgry in that case!
What happened to him after the movie? What is his life in hell? How will he get to his partner(s)?
I will take anything with Abby!
I have just one petpeeve: JInu shouldn't be some sort of special demon, i would like for him to be just a regular demon who got lucky/unlucky. No special powers or destiny please!
