Okay, so I still ended up on Tumblr. Sh. Being productive is hard for me (finding the motivation is 90% of my problem, thank you depression, you fucking fuck), so I’m celebrating what I’ve already done today.

cleaned off and made my bed

sorted my laundry and started the first load washing

picked up all my kitten’s toys

hauled out two bags of trash and put bags back

scooped Leo’s litter box and hauled it out

started decluttering one of my invisible areas (AKA “this spot is full of junk I never touch, but it’s out of the way so I rarely notice it, but when I DO notice it, it bugs me because useless never-touched junk”)

I had a thought last night (and I'm a writer, not an artist, so sadly it's a thought not a picture) of what Avengers-themed tacky Christmas sweaters would look like. So here are my conclusions:

Black Widow: black background, columns of tiny, fat green Christmas trees in pairs aligned tip-to-tip. (Yes, they're making an hourglass shape with Christmas trees.) Tinsel embroidered on the trees with red yarn, and a red bobble where each pair of trees meets for the star.

Bruce Banner/Hulk: dark purple background, with columns of embroidered silver Erlenmeyer flasks (the conical ones in every stereotypical lab video ever). Inside the flasks, bright green fizzy liquid that bubbles up golden over the top, like a radioactive Christmas tree and star.

Captain America: slanted red and white stripes (like a candy cane) with big dark blue snowflakes embroidered all over.

Falcon: navy blue background, little white doves in flight all over

Hawkeye: lavender background, with columns of circular dark purple ornaments (think archery targets). Each ornament has an embroidered black arrow embedded in the center, and the arrows alternate which direction the fletching points from - left or right.

Iron Man: one big picture on a navy blue background - the Iron Man suit in a big red-and-gold sleigh, pulled by Dummy, You, and Butterfingers

Thor: red background, with lots of tiny golden Mjolnirs arranged in sixes like snowflakes, with the handles to the center. Lots of little hammer snowflakes.

Oh fuck, I last translated a year ago (this is what graduating does to you, kids, it ROTS YOUR BRAIN).

But thank you for the sweet words!

You're welcome. I really wish that attraction, gender, and relationships were talked about a lot more - and a lot more USEFULLY - in high school than they are. Unfortunately, a lot of that stuff I only learned in college, through my university's Lambda (LGBTQ) program. If your high school has a Gay-Straight Alliance, you might check them out - they should be doing the same things.

If you want to know more about asexuality, though, I can recommend a few blogs: spacesforaces has some info, asexual-people-problems and asexualproblems2 post common problems aces experience, and demigray is a resource for demisexual/greyasexual/questioning people. AVEN has some good info, and this Facebook group is by aces, for aces. If you ever need a laugh, go read a few pages of asexualfactoftheday.

In high school and college, I RPed with a group of friends on the internet and made one of my best friends, winpiestiel, that way. He and I eventually wandered off into our own group (there was drama, and not the fun character kind), which only started tapering off when...

...he talked me into joining Tumblr and the RP group he was on here. It was a Supernatural group that started in the hiatus between seasons 7 and 8, and saying that it got retconned HARD is an understatement. (The boys found Gabriel in Purgatory. Lucifer and Michael got over their shit and became poly with Adam. There was time travel, witches, friendly demons, and shapeshifting. My character was the illegitimate child of Gabriel and a Greek goddess...who was four. And could shapeshift. And became Lucifer's favorite in about .2 seconds. She was AWESOME.)

Now I'm sometimes-writing with swimmingfrug and betaing for kryptaria and zooeyscigar, which is great and awesome and...I just want to write more. With more people. All the time.

(Andy first met me as ANJ on livejournal) It’ll pass this week, and there’s already official training planned for St. Mungo’s staff.

Yup, of course Terry went through the right channels :D AND IT WORKED ON THE PORTRAIT THAT IS AWESOME Though it has one side effect: you can’t place a sticking charm on either object afterward. Well, that’s useful if a child keeps being moronic :P That really was a great glimpse into a possible future :)

----------------------------

Thanks for the review! More headcanons (because I love them): After taking Terry to show his mom (and yes, that was side-along apparition in Mike's exuberance -- he's REALLY FUCKING HAPPY about that charm) Mike dragged Terry to the Leaky Cauldron, where he made Terry show Hannah and Neville the new charm. They both got slightly tipsy (amusing Hannah and Neville to no end, because Hannah knows their relationship is just a matter of time and she told Neville), so eventually Mike dragged a (Latin parsing) Terry home and tucked him into bed. And then he was tired, so he tucked himself into bed right beside him.

Because cuddles.

Also, the training for the hospital staff was both wonderful and terrible. Wonderful, because now everyone is super excited about not having to scrape several layers of skin off people every time someone comes in with a Permanent Sticking Charm (along with some rather unpleasant incantations). Terrible, because now that nurse at the check-in desk won't stop sending cookies to "your cute flatmate, tell him hi for me!"

Basically, I don't like non-family being in the house before I'm dressed and fore-warned of company.
