tia how are you doing?
Hi! I'm doing alright. I just tested positive for Covid this morning. But my symptoms aren't too bad. I've been busy with working and just working on my life.
Aside from taking care of a lot of things in my life, I'm doing good. Hope you're doing well!

So I was just informed that starting today, I have to pay for my own food... I was given the warning when we went shopping last week... But there was no date given.. So I was under the impression I'd have food until the 16th... Now I'm so unsure what to do, and I feel helpless. :(
Life update!
So a few things have happened since I last posted.
We managed to see a vet that was not only cheaper, but was willing to work with us. We learned Tito is suffering from allergies, and that's the reason he keeps getting infections... We switched his dog food, so now it's more pricey, but it should help with his issue.. However, I'm still trying to recover from that, so it's a work in progress.
My dad went for Spinal surgery 2 weeks ago. He's back home and is moving around. Was definitely a stressful week for sure, because we didn't know when he was coming home or if the surgery would work.. Time will tell if it's actually worked or not.
I DID secure a full time job and quit my other one. However, even with the hours and stability, I haven't fully caught up because of having to owe for Tito's vet. But I'm thankful I have a proper work schedule.
It's still a bit bumpy, but I'm trying to take things day by day to not stress out AS much. Only time will tell really. But just wanted to share that with you guys!

to uk peeps
so you guys are facing down yet another global warming summer and as an american i feel entitled to barge over and give you a lot of advice about how to live your life. also i’m used to surviving 90-110 degree summers (32—43 celsius) with no ac. so here we go.
you need to drink a lot of water. on average you should be drinking about two liters. on hot days, double that.
fill plastic water bottles halfway up and stick them in your freezer. take them out once they’ve frozen and fill the rest up with water, drink the water, fill it up again, and carry it around with you until it’s time to get the next ice bottle. also you can put the icy end against your throat or over your chest for maximum refreshment.
consider making a lot of sun tea. get big glass jars or a pitcher. put a bunch of your preferred teabags in it with some sugar. if you want to be an american southerner, your tea should be green or black and your sugar amount should be enough to kill a child. if you want to be sane, put in as little sugar as you can get away with so it’s not dehydrating, and stick with herbal teas because the last thing you want during the heat of the day is a caffeine boost. leave your tea on a windowsill. after a few hours it’s steeped and you can put it in the fridge. tadaaa.
fruit juice, soda pop, beer, and a lot of sports drinks like gatorade all dehydrate you, and in really hot weather they’re dangerous because people will drink them instead of water. drink an equal amount of water as anything with sugar. see prior point about sun tea.
when you sweat you lose salt. so don’t feel bad about eating some junk food.
freeze grapes. eat the grapes. repeat.
get a hat with a brim. baseball caps are ok but wide brimmed hats are better because they shadow the back of your neck and that’s one less thing to have to worry about.
don’t wear knit caps. just… no.
you don’t get more sunburned because it’s hot, you get more sunburned because when it’s hot you wear less clothes. so don’t freak out.
if you don’t have AC you can put a bowl of ice behind a fan. this creates a swamp cooler, by pulling the air over the ice. also, put on a wet t-shirt and sit in front of it, and you’ll cool further by evaporation.
speaking of evaporation, watch out if it’s humid. you don’t cool down from sweating as much when the air’s already saturated. drink more water, have more salt, and change your shirt a lot.
heatstroke is serious shit, and kids and the elderly are prone to it. but whatever your age, if you feel nauseous, headachy, or short of breath, the heat’s getting to you. pour your water bottle over your head and go sit in the shade. keep an eye on friends and family as well.
if someone stops sweating when they’re still out in the heat, that’s serious business and get them medical treatment as soon as possible. it’s a case of dehydration and/or heatstroke.
Other things that freeze really well, a short list:
Orange juice! Other fruit juices too, but I tend to have best results with oj or cider. Pour some into an empty ice-cube tray, let them freeze, and the result is slightly-flaky frozen goodness. This is also an easy way to make homemade popsicles–put a sheet of aluminum foil over top of the tray and stick toothpick/popsicle sticks in so the juice freezes around them.
Grapes were mentioned. Grapes are TRUE.
NOT SODAS. Do not freeze sodas! They explode.
Strawberries! These can be hard to find cheap, especially outside of strawberry season, and I don’t know about their availability outside of my part of the US, but if you can get them they’re great frozen in your water. Freeze-dry strawberries by laying them out on a tray or sth in the freezer, and then when they’re frozen just put them in a bag to conserve space.
Other general tips:
Fruit in water is amazing when you’re someone like me who doesn’t like water’s lack of taste. Strawberries and mint leaves are fairly traditional, but basically anything you like will work. there are lots of combos online.
If you have a blender or a food processor, smoothies are a good way to eat something when you’re too hot to function. Fruit+ice+milk+yogurt is pretty traditional.
Have sunscreen. Make sure you don’t have any skin reactions to the sunscreen. If your sunscreen has fragrance, make sure you can deal with the fragrance when it’s constantly on your face in heat.
Speaking off: sunscreen is not just for arms/shoulders. Put sunscreen on your face, especially nose/cheekbones/forehead. Put sunscreen on the tops of your ears! If your hair has a tight part, try to put sunscreen there if you don’t wear a hat (scalp burns are PAINFUL). Put sunscreen on your legs, especially the backs of your calves. Put sunscreen on any visible parts of your feet.
Wear loose clothing if you can, especially if you’re wearing long sleeves. Any constrictions on your breathing feel much worse in the heat.
If you need to cool down quick, run cold water over your wrists (or put ice cubes on them maybe?). This is a trick they taught us in gymnastics class but it works just as well on hot days.
When you start getting that feeling like you’ve adapted to the heat, like it’s not bad, like you could just stay where you are for hours and hours, even get a blanket, and maybe you feel like you’re zoning out a little, it’s time to reconsider, move around, have something cool to drink.
And it can be hard to remember to eat when it’s so hot, for some reason. Cold food in small portions is generally easiest to manage. But remember to eat food with a lot of salt, a lot of potassium, a lot of vitamins. I can’t believe bananas aren’t on this post. My god, get your potassium, you’ll feel SO much better. If you’re eating something salty and it tastes unusually, amazingly good, it’s because you’re running low on salt, so keep eating it.
and seriously yeah keep an eye on people like kids and the elderly and anyone who’s under your care. ask them how they’re feeling if they’re able to tell you, and if not, try to see if they’re looking unusually unfocused, breathing too hard, haven’t had anything to drink in a while, etc.
If you bind, be even more careful about how long you bind and pay even more attention to your binder’s effects on your body.
sometimes there’s nothing else for it but to just fill a bathtub with cool water and get in. Seriously, it can be so helpful. Also, showers. Showers are good.
also take care of your dogs I don’t know anything about dogs but be careful for them! maybe look up some tips.
also could anyone who even thinks about reblogging this from me to make fun of brits, pls stop?? when it gets hot here it’s kind of awful bc A/C is rare and they’re really not used to this kind of heat. if you add any sort of teasing if u reblog this for me i will find u and push you
Seriously, air conditioning is basically not a think here. And most of our houses are designed to trap heat. Our old people’s homes are not air conditioned. Our hospitals are not air conditioned. When we have unusual heat waves people die.
If you find yourself shaking, feeling dizzy, or feeling cold in the middle of a heat wave, sit yourself down in the shade and sip water (don’t chug, you’ll make yourself throw up) until you feel normal again. These are some of the first warning signs of heat exhaustion and ignoring them is dumb. If you’re at a sports practice or being otherwise active in the heat and you recognize these or other symptoms of heat exhaustion/heat stroke, don’t let yourself be pressured into playing through it. Listen to your body and take care of it.
I have so many British buddies, you guys, pay serious attention to the tips up above. For those who don’t know, I live in Australia, one of the driest and hottest places on earth, and we get those same temperatures that the first poster quoted, hotter in the centre of Australia. I didn’t know half of those tips, and I’ll likely utilise them next summer myself.
Please, take care in the heat, I’ll make sure to reblog this later on when it gets closer to you guys’ summer, but please, take this seriously. Even with us being used to the heat the way we are, we still have fatalities because people do not properly look after themselves.
also, since everyone always forgets – if you’re wearing sandals or flipflops, PUT SUNSCREEN ON YOUR TOES. Those little piggies are not used to being grilled, and sunburnt feet isn’t fun. Actually, suncreen everywhere (nape of neck, all over your ears, right down to your figures. Put your sunscreen on before getting dressed, and let it soak in, so you don’t get burn lines along the hems, and re-apply FREQUENTLY. In fact, if you don’t regularly use sunscreen, read this helpful FAQ As someone with skin cancer, let me tell you, DON’T LET YOURSELF GET BURNED! /psa
another point to cool off is behind the ears, press an ice cube there when your head feels hot
lie down on the floor to refresh, if your house is all wooden floors and carpets, the floors won’t be fresh but where there are tiles (like the bathroom) would work
and yo, if u have towels, u should soak ‘em in cold water or a tub of ice if one is accessible, and just wear it around your neck
also, the sunscreen thing is rly important even if you don’t think you need it, you can still get sunburnt and have ur skin peeling, and that’s no fun.
If you have access to multiple floors, it can be a good idea to set up an air mattress or even just pile up some blankets on the floor and to sleep on the lowest floor you can. Heat rises, and even with a/c we used to sleep on the ground floor when we were in an old farmhouse. It’s also not a bad idea to wear loose, light colored clothing that’s a little more covering, since this helps keep the sun off of you and makes it easier for sweat to evaporate, which both help keep you cool. Idk if anyone’s mentioned this, but you can tie up loose hair in a bun or braid to keep it from sticking to your neck. It’s a small but quick thing that can make you feel a bit better, just make sure to keep the back of your neck in the shade and sunscreen.
If you plan on lying on your stomach in the sun SUNSCREEN THE BOTTOMS OF YOUR FEET. Really sunscreen every 1-2 hours and make sure you apply at least 15 min before going outside.
I like sticking my top sheet and pillowcase in the freezer about 30 min or more before going to bed. And cold wet hair is a blessing for a while if you have longer hair
About clothing: If you can wear loose clothes made of 100% cotton or linen, wear them! A lot of synthetic fibers (I’m looking at you, polyester) will stick to your skin like plastic wrap.
Also, FROZEN BANANAS. Frozen bananas are excellent. And having something salty to snack on, because it will make you thirsty and remind you to drink water, as well as replacing any salt you lose by sweating. Just keep a bag of chips (er, American-style chips, I mean) or pretzels handy and munch on them.
I get super dizzy in the heat- not related to dehydration or heat stroke or dangerous things, it’s just a thing with my body. If you’ve figured out that you do the same (and aren’t suffering heat stroke) it can be a pain. Best thing I’ve found to counter that is rest my head between my knees or on a table or whatever, face down, and put something frozen on the back of my neck. A frozen towel or ice pack or whatever. Like all the other cool down points people mention are good but I’ve found that to be the best one to counteract dizziness is the back of the neck at the base of the skull.
Reblogging because this information is helpful for everyone around the world. I’m heat-sensitive so I’ll be trying some of these this summer myself.
Please also take extra care of pets and children - small bodies overheat much faster!
Hard, dark surfaces (asphalt, paving, etc) absorb heat and radiate it back - if the air up where your adult head is, is hot, then down at knee level where small children and pets walk may be 20-30 degrees F (10+ deg C) HOTTER. Black road surface can be hot enough to actually burn paws.
Heat exhaustion in pets looks like it does in people - dizziness, disorientation, unfocused eyes. Dogs may pant so hard their mouth is foamy. Especially be careful of long haired dogs and any breed with a short nose or flat face. If you can clip the coat, the dog will probably be grateful, but will also be susceptible to sunburn, so use your judgment. Sometimes it’s better to leave the hair, or clip only the belly.
Cats are pretty heat tolerant, but definitely make sure that outdoor cats have reliable shade and water. Indoor cats appreciate a fan to lay near.
If you have an overheated dog or cat: Immediately move the animal to shade, and cool them by putting cool (NOT COLD OR ICY) water on JUST THEIR PAWS. Do not douse the animal in water - thermal shock is just as bad as overheating. Keep soaking the paws in cool water until the animal recovers. Offer cool (NOT COLD OR ICY) water to drink. If you offer very cold water to an overheated dog, they will drink it, but it may make them vomit, only worsening dehydration. If the animal doesn’t want water pretty much immediately, they’re dangerously overheated - soak their paws and call the vet.
Dogs which are merely hot, not overheated, will enjoy the same things you do. Cool water at all times. Soak a rope toy in water and freeze it. Frozen peanut butter for a treat. Give the dog a frozen water bottle - they might ignore it, or they might happily lick it or lay on it.
These are good tips. My current apartment has no a/c and used to be the sunroom of an old victorian house, so I can vouch for how important all this is. Lay on the floor in your undies and put frozen water bottles in your armpits. Trust me.
In addition…. • If you can afford it, go to the movies or other places (like shopping malls) where the AC will be on HIGH. I realize this won’t get you through the whole day, but it can help. • Keep a jug of water in your fridge. Sometimes the pipes get so hot in the sun that your tap water won’t get cooler than lukewarm. • So you’re inside and you’re bored… try not to leave your big desktop computer running all day. Use a tablet, read a book, or play games on your Gameboy/smartphone. Computers with fans put out a lot of heat. • A park with grass and trees will be cooler than a park with just concrete/pavement/whatever. Not just because of the shade, but because the plants won’t bounce all the sun’s heat back at you. • Light bulbs put out heat too (more or less depending on the type) so leave them off when possible. • Hopefully it cools off at night. Open all the doors and windows (easier if you have screens; I hear some people don’t??) once it’s cooler outside than in, and overnight if it’s safe. Make sure to close up in the morning before it gets hot out again.
Another sleeping tip: put an ice pack (preferably a soft one but use whatever you have) in a pillowcase and take it to bed with you. Just lay an arm or whatever over it; in my experience, you’ll scoot closer to or farther from it during the night to adjust your temperature without waking up TOO much. Like an anti-hot water bottle for your bed.
Seconding the shower suggestion above, too. Absolute lifesaver and it can just be a quick rinse.
Current place doesn’t have screens on most of the windows (lol), so I dropped <$20 on a mosquito net canopy, which is also a literal lifesaver depending on where you live.
Additional tips from a fat person primarily geared towards other fat people:
Long sleeves and long pants, counterintuitive as this is about to sound, are your friends. Go for thinner fabric, and as someone up there said, you’re going to want to go for a natural fabric (cotton, linen, silk, very fine wool - yes, really) rather than a synthetic (polyester, rayon). But keeping the sun from directly hitting your skin goes a long way towards keeping you cool.
Someone else mentioned binders and paying attention to those. This also applies to regular old bras. Basically you want to be careful about tight-fitting garments in general in hot weather. Frankly, if I’m going to be somewhere with no A/C and it’s going to consistently be above 80F/27C, I don’t wear a bra at all.
Take the recommendations for how much water to drink everyone is giving you, and then add half again as much water. Trust me. You are going to sweat in places you weren’t aware had sweat glands, and if you’re not sufficiently hydrated, there will be extremely unpleasant consequences.
Invest in baby wipes. Keep them with you. Any time you stop to use the restroom, use a wipe or two to remove the sweat from any creases you might have (under the stomach, under the breasts, etc.) while you’re in there. Toilet paper and paper towels are too dry and will rub you raw. I try to do this every couple of hours; dirt gets trapped easily and can quickly turn into something unpleasant.
More tips from someone without AC
plastic water bottles can be frozen to be used as ice packs since the plastic is flimsy and flexible. use them to cool down. I recommend keeping half in the freezer so when they melt you can swap them out
HYDRATE. seriously your body needs water to help you cool down.
Cover the windows with bedsheets. this will cool the room down by providing shade
keep the lights off. the darker the room is the cooler the room is
if you have pets, give them ice. put it in their water, let them eat it like a treat. it also hydrates them if they aren’t particularly thirsty
Dogs can have watermelon. this is another treat to hydrate them
two other dog treats are peanut butter frozen in tiny balls, and broth frozen in ice cube trays (the latter is better given to them outside so it doesn’t melt on the floor)
if you need to go somewhere in a car, put down towels on the seats, and turn on the AC and let it cool down before you get in.
if you can, try to spend time in a mall or store with air conditioning.
if you are using a makeshift AC, close off one area/room to stay in. its easier to cool down the room if its smaller.
MAKE SURE TO OPEN THE WINDOWS AT NIGHT: this lets the air that was heated throughout the day out. and lets cooler air in.
on a similar note: DO NOT OPEN THE WINDOWS DURING THE DAY. your efforts are better spent making sure you cool the room as much as possible, heat moves from warm places to cooler places so opening a window will thwart all your efforts to cool down the place.
LEARN THE SYMPTOMS OF HEAT STROKE AND HEAT EXAUSTION
if you are living in a multistory home, try to stay on the ground floor. heat rises
don’t make food that requires an oven/microwave/etc. this will heat up the room.
wear light colored clothes. Black and dark clothes hold heat.
cool showers are your friend. they help lower internal body temperature.
CHECK IN ON FRIENDS AND NEIGHBORS, ESPECIALLY IF THEY ARE HIGH RISK. Extreme temperatures kill, checking in on each other- especially if they live alone can save lives
Limit outdoor activity especially midday when the sun is hottest
The best way to utilize fans if to put them in front of any AC vents or outputs, to spread the cool air faster
cut down on exercise during heat.
KEEP MEDICATIONS AND SENSITIVE EQUPMENT IN A COOL, DARK AREA. some medications and equipment shouldn’t be exposed to high temperatures. put them in a dark cupboard or drawer, and consider putting some ice packs with them (if you use ice packs I recommend also storing some basilica packs in the area to reduce moisture from condensation)
this is very important: DO NOT USE A FAN IN DRY HEAT. This increases the risk of heat stroke. blowing dry air that is warmer than your body temperature will raise it, not cool it down.
after going through the PNW heatwave in an area where no one has AC, I don’t want ANYONE caught unprepared.
Here is a list of heat related illnesses, their symptoms and what to do if you or someone you know is experiencing them (from the CDC):
Text version:
HEAT STROKE
WHAT TO LOOK FOR:
High body temperature (103°F [39.44°C] or higher)
Hot, red, dry, or damp skin
Fast, strong pulse
headache
dizziness
nausea
confusion
Losing consciousness (passing out)
WHAT TO DO
Call your region’s emergency telephone number (911/122/etc.) right away. Heat stroke is a medical emergency
move the person to a cooler place
help lower the person’s body temperature with cool cloths or a cool bath
Do not give the person anything to drink
HEAT EXAUSTION
WHAT TO LOOK FOR
heavy sweating
cold, pale, and clammy skin
fast, weak pulse
Nausea or vomiting
muscle cramps
tiredness or weakness
dizziness
headache
fainting (passing out)
WHAT TO DO
Move to a cool place
loosen your clothes
put cool, wet cloths on your body or take a cool bath
Sip water
Get medical help right away if:
you are throwing up
your symptoms get worse
your symptoms last more tham 1 hour
HEAT CRAMPS
WHAT TO LOOK FOR
Heavy sweating during intense exercise
muscle pain or spasms
WHAT TO DO
Stop physical activity and move to a cool place
drink water or a sports drink
wait for cramps to go away before you do any more physical activity
Get medical help right away if:
Cramps last longer than 1 hour
you’re on a low sodium diet
you have heart problems
SUNBURN
WHAT TO LOOK FOR
Painful, red, and warm skin
blisters on the skin
WHAT TO DO
Stay out of the sun until your sunburn heals
put cool cloths on sunburned areas or take a cool bath
put moisturizing lotion on sunburned areas
do not break blisters
HEAT RASH
WHAT TO LOOK FOR
Red clusters of small blisters that look like pimples on the skin (usually on the neck, chest, groin, or in elbow creases)
WHAT TO DO
Stay in a cool, dry place
keep the rash dry
use powder (like baby powder) to soothe the rash
frozen fruits work just as well as fresh. and heat or no heat, it’s a great way to add flavor to your water, as my dad says. and then when you’re done with your water, you’ve got some slightly defrosted fruit as a snack. idk about in the uk, but here in the states, they can be less expensive than the fresh stuff.
frozen or cold/wet bandanas are another good option if you don’t want to soak all of your towels. just remember to change them out once they’re dry and warm on top of your head. keep a rotation going, but don’t forget about them if you’ve popped a few in the freezer. they don’t last as long as heavier towels do, but they’re lightweight options and easy to keep in a portable cooler if you have one.
and since we all seem to be going into some sort of dangerous heat temperatures this week, this is fantastic advice in general. there are a lot of apartments here in the states that don’t provide a/c units and not everyone can afford to buy one. will never forget my first apartment and my first truly hot summer with no a/c. and it’s good advice to have no matter your experience level with extreme heat. i suggest printing out or writing down the symptoms of heatstroke. send it in a text to friends and family, make sure they know what to look for in the people around them as well. please watch out for those around you, often times you will be the first to notice the signs, especially if confusion is a symptom involved. check in on your loved ones if and when you can, especially the elderly as they’re more likely to be at risk and the ones with memory issues don’t always remember to drink water when they’re supposed to. stay safe, friends <33
Can I request the prompt "you're snoring, it's cute" with akashi? I just feel like he's the type to think he doesn't snore and it would be soo funny to tease him about it
He feels the stare as he slowly regain consciousness.. A soft frown curls on his lips as his eye-lids lift, revealing beautiful red hues. He's greeted with a playful grin, and he finds himself alert.
"What's so funny, ____-chan?"
Biting your bottom lip, you shake your head, running a hand playfully through his disheveled hair.
"You're snoring... it's cute!"
Almost immediately, his cheeks flare up, and he jumps up, nearly hitting you in the face as he half glares at you.
"I do NOT snore."
You roll your eyes, a full-blown laugh erupting from your throat as he immediately gets defensive, and he finds himself captivated..
"Everyone snores, Sei-chan... I just happen to find yours cute."
Scowling, he gets out from under the covers, shaking his head and stretches his muscles. He can FEEL your stare, trying not to hide the tiny smirk creep on his lips.
"When I get back, you're going to pay for that."
"Doesn't change the fact you snore, Sei-chan..."
"I do not snore!"

Prompt: “ i’m cold. “ “ c'mere. “
Character: Aomine Daiki
Pairing: Aomine Daiki x Reader
Relationship: prefer romantic, but platonic will also do
Length: Kinda long (drabble is also fine)
Message: Hi sweetie! Here is my reauest. Hope I'm not bothering you with this. Please feel free to keep this aside if you are feeling overwhelmed or something. I love your writing and I hope you continue!!
Hi sweetie! Thank you for this! (No you're not a bother at all!) I miss writing for this guy ;; Your wish is granted! (I'll try to write this romantic, but it may be a mix of both? So if anything early stages of the relationship!)
xxxx
Shivers ran down your spine as you attempt to get warm. A tiny part admits it's due to nerves as you've never slept over at another guy's house.
As their girlfriend.
Though Aomine didn't specifically say the two of you were together, you know by his actions it was the case. (He's admitted to liking you, and to always wanting you at his side. It was enough for you to be assured about the nature of your relationship.)
The blanket was warm, but it wasn't enough, and it was hard for you to get comfortable, knowing he was sleeping a few inches away.
"Mmm.."
You nearly jump when you feel him shuffle, and you inwardly curse at your lack of ability to STOP. SHAKING.
He was beautiful.
"_-____?" he mumbles sleepily, and the blush deepens at the rough tone.
"S...Sorry..." you stutter, trying to bury your face in the pillow. "D...Did I wake you?"
He shakes his head, a frown on his lips as his eyes adjust to the dark. He rubs an eye, letting out a yawn, as he stretches his legs.
"No.." he states, turning his full attention to your shaking body. "What's wrong?"
You let out a soft breath, wracking your brain for a response. You were nervous to share the same bed as him? He would probably laugh.. Instead, you bite your lip as you whisper,
"I...I'm cold.."
If he notices you blushing, Aomine doesn't say anything.
"C'mere." He whispers, as he tugs at your hands to bring you against his chest. He clicks his tongue at the coldness of your hands, rubbing them between his hands and presses a soft kiss to each knuckle.
"You should've woken me up, ____." he whispers, gently rubbing your back.
You shake your head, trying to calm the heat on your cheeks as you sink into his embrace. The beating of his heart soothed your nerves, and you push yourself into his warmth, feeling secure in his arms.
"I.... I didn't want to disturb you..."
You know he rolls his eyes, as a soft chuckle leaves his throat. "I'd rather you wake me up than freeze to death."
Your response dies in your throat as he buries his face in your hair, pressing a soft kiss to your temple. You look up at him carefully, grateful the dark can hide most of the redness on your cheeks. But you can clearly see the blue of his eyes, and you're rendered speechless. Instead, you smile at him softly, pressing a soft kiss to his cheek, wrapping your arms around his back.
"Thank you Dai-chan."
Your smile grows bigger as his heart beats faster, lulling you to sleep in his arms. And if you'd stayed awake a little longer, you would've seen him smiling at you like a little child.
"Good night, _____."

Update; Ask box is now open~!
Hey everyone! So I'm re-opening my ask box. HOWEVER, there's two things.
1. All current requests will be deleted and I'll be starting fresh with new asks. Reason being is I've been in a rut lately, and I can't seem to pick up and write, even if I happen to really love the idea.
2. You will only be able to ask for ONE character and I'll be posting a list of prompts you can use with said character. I feel this will help me get back into writing, and hopefully be able to open me back up to writing multiple characters at once.
Things have still be chaotic, and I've been taking time off social media to deal with both pets and my father. (I won't be making a separate post unless people ask because I'm tired of writing out everything for barely anyone to read. Or that's how it's been feeling lately.)
That said, I hope you guys understand and I look forward to the requests :)

can’t decide between first person or third, any tips to help? I usually write in third for fanfics but I’m now writing my own story and am so torn
First Person vs. Third Person POV
Both point of views have different abilities to narrate a story. I'm not going to use pros and cons for this, because I believe that it depends on the way you want to tell a story, if these aspects are helpful for you or not.
First Person POV
The narrator is a direct part of the story and narrates what they see and feel with using "I" (or "we").
Features of first-person pov:
it offers a direct link to the story
the story can feel more real and believable
the narrator is part of the situation, but you as the author can still decide if they are an active participant or if they are watching from the sidelines
the whole story is them talking about their experiences
therefore, the story is always subjective and full of what the narrator thinks, feels and believes to be true
if they are also not telling the story in the moment, but rather recounting it, they can also recount some things differently than how they actually happened
a first person pov is the easiest way to create an unreliable narrator
Third Person POV
The narrator is the author, who is detached from the story and narrates the lives of characters without being one of them. The narrator calls the characters by their name or their pronouns.
You have three different options:
Third-person omniscient:
This narrator is all-knowing and can tell the whole story as it is, from every perspective, but not limited to a single character. They know what every character is thinking and feeling and what their motivations are.
Third-person limited:
This narrator is limited to the inner feelings of a limited amount of characters, often just the protagonist.
Third-person objective:
This narrator tells the story completely objective, just telling what can be seen without commenting on it and not going into the thoughts and motivations of specific characters.
Features of third-person pov:
it allows the reader to emerge themselves into the thoughts and motivations of one or more characters, therefore making it almost feel like first-person pov
it can also be objective, with just the characters' dialogues and actions telling the reader about them
it allows the author to jump between scenes and times more easily
the author can tell multiple storylines at the same time (also possible with multiple first-person povs, but the jump between different times is easier for the reader in third-person)
by using third-person pov the author can decide completely on how much they want to tell the reader at any given point

Hi there! I guess I should've clarified this in the previous post. (My mind isn't here today.)
Kuroko no Basuke & Bleach are the two I'm open for right now :)

“ it’s just a room with a bed. “
“ can’t wait to spend the night with you. “
“ don’t hog the blanket. “
“ there’s only one pillow… “
“ you sure you’re okay with this? “
“ you take the pillow. “
“ you can always sleep on the couch. “

UPDATE: It's Not Cancer!
I got the results of Cookie's Biopsy back. It turns out it's not Cancer. However, she does have another condition, and it's possible she may have it for life.
That being said, I still need any help possible because it costed a LOT to take her in, and now she may be on medication permanently.. It's going to get expensive...
I know the first question being asked is, "Why not get pet insurance?" Well, how it works here is they'll only cover costs AFTER you're approved and do tests . Not for pre-existing conditions.. Even my vet said it's stupid and a waste of time, because it's more stressful to get things done, just for them to be like "Sorry, we can't cover that."
Not to mention, there still is a chance I may need to get teeth removed, but at this stage, that's been put on hold. The plan now is to fight the infection/inflammation in her mouth. Which means I have to take her to the vet every two weeks for the antibiotic shot. (It's the safer option as even when I keep her from the other pets, they still steal her food. and if she doesn't finish it, they'll be eating food with medication in it.)
Her new anti-inflammatory medication will be about $150. I'm not sure how often I need to refill it, hence why I'm asking for any and all help.
On top of it, Tito suffers from ear infections like crazy, and I have to take him back to the vet today because it got extremely bad this time... They possibly need to do surgery on his ear because there's a small lump of blood growing there from the infection. So they'll have to cut it open to drain it.
I'm doing what I can on my end, but the costs are adding up, and that's starting to cause me extreme stress. (My animals have never costed this much before.)
Please continue to reblog my previous post for awareness. Any and all help is appreciated. I'm trying to figure out a way to set up Ko-fi as a monthly thing, (I read a little about it?) If anyone uses it, please let me know how it works? Maybe that'll be easier than having to always make a post about this? Idk..
I haven't been online much because I've been trying to deal with this chaotic mess. and trying not to let it be too damaging on my mental health.. (Though it had because i was worried I'd have to put her down...)
Thanks for reading everyone!
UPDATE: I REALLY NEED THE HELP.
Tito had to get surgery today. That's costing me $1000. Guys I've spent $1700 in the last WEEK I can't afford on both my pets for them to have surgeries. I really could use any and all help. I'm struggling so hard, and it's hit me mentally.
I don't know what else to do. I didn't expect them both to get hit with things at the same time, and it's really draining me. I'm so tired.
