Liam posted video from his run this morning, with pal Conor and a picture of… his new blond hair?! It’s TRUE, he really did it!! None of this Niall business (see below), when Liam teases a thing he goes right ahead and DOES THAT THING, love that for us. He said, “after such an incredible day with the art launch I felt the courage,” and “I was very nervous but I love it,” and “discord chat made me do it,” haha. Remembering him talking about wanting to bleach his hair in the past but being told he wasn’t allowed by management, this is a happy day! Go Liam. Fans flipped and his blond hair trended and Liam posted a shirtless blond bedtime video to say thanks for all the love.
And as for that art launch, well: continuing the ongoing theme of me being confused about Liam’s NFTs (I do like to be consistent) I guess he DID post all of it for us to see SORRY I thought those were previews or something? I DON’T KNOW I’M SORRY MY BAD. You would really think they would have made a bigger deal about that? Well; there was a lot going on. Anyway so the different ones ARE posted to his insta (or uh copies of them which is a whole thorny philosophical debate isn’t it, whether copies are or aren’t different than the versions one can own, it all depends on your view of NFTs) but ANYWAY we CAN see the Lonely Bug content and it’s poignant and very pretty honestly. The one of the bug trying and failing to rest while camera shutters and flashes click continuously in the background especially is really intense. APOLOGIES LIAM for my mistake, ugh.
Niall is making rash promises for if Our Song hits number one, only this time for Anne Marie instead of himself- he said she’d do a “live sky dive on tiktok”! Promises promises, but it was Ashe who gave the fans the content we want today; she not only posted shirtless Niall video to celebrate 1 year of their collab version of Moral of the Story, but also goofy rehearsal footage and, my personal favorite, Niall with an American accent impersonating a news anchor reporting on election returns! LOL. Anne Marie had a pretty competitive offer, saying Niall would get a TATTOO (live on tiktok) but that was simply too much to even kid about for Niall- “Ok jokes over. Just a number 1 would be nice,” he said.
And a ‘For Your Emmys Consideration’ ad uses a picture of Harry’s Grammys performance which raises all kinds of fascinating questions- would it be a special kind of EGOT if someone got the Emmy for getting a Grammy?? Way to streamline the process if that was what was going on, but sad news, the Emmy would actually go to Ben Winston for the broadcast, not to Harry: ugh. Liam, who unlike me actually likes Ben Winston, commented on the post “love this… my two guys couldn’t be more proud”, and Niall liked the post.
Next fundraising-for-nathan’s-move commission for Floria, who donated twice (!) and asked for Mabel as a paladin to the Pathfinder deity Shelyn. Based on my research Shelyn is a patron of beauty and the arts who uses rainbows in all of her decorating, so that seems like an excellent choice.
Charity commission from for Indigo, who requested Stan with a kitten on his shoulder! I decided to go with a fancy partner in crime.
The campaign to help @astriiformes out with moving is ongoing, so if you’d like to slide a few dollars or precious heirloom necklaces his way my offer for art still stands. Thank you to everyone who has helped already!
I want to make a new patchwork blanket for The Child–he has worn two to pieces in his lifetime, both of which I made years before he was born
and also both of which were made of, like, no more than 16 Very Large Patches, so making another will be more an issue of handling large amounts of fabric than intricate assembly
I asked if he wanted anything in particular?
He asked if I could do an Among Us reference–not a real amogus, and not even necessarily obvious, just…something amogus-y
And the thing is
when I had opened up the bag that had that purse project in it, the bag also had the rest of the vintage quilted fabric I used for the purse
and this fabric–which I had not looked at since summer of 2019–included this element that has a very…well…suspiciouslyfamiliar shape to it in 2022
When I showed The Child, he saw it right away, too, and grinned.
Prompt: “Arrival”, 2016, Denis Villeneuve Prompted by: The Author Author:Anonymous Word Count: 39,761 words Rating:Explicit Warnings: Time weirdness, disorientation, break up/make up (with an HEA), a bit of trauma and grief
Notes: This fic is based on the film Arrival (2016) directed by Dennis Villeneuve. It was such a pleasure to plonk my favorite boys down into the world of one of my favorite films for a while and see how they fared. I owe absolutely gargantuan thanks to: C, who inspires all the best plot points; B, who is the best cheerleader in the world, F, who is so brilliant and thoughtful, R, whose encouragement carried me through to the end, and C who wrangled all my commas into place. I love you all! But the biggest thanks are due to the fest mods, who made participating such a delight.
Summary: Draco Malfoy is an expert in Ancient Runes at Oxford University’s College of Advanced Magical Studies. When he isn’t at the head of a lecture hall, he spends his time alone in cavernous libraries with only crumbling scrolls and runic dictionaries for company. One day, a group of Ministry officials interrupts his research with the aim of recruiting him to lead an elite team of investigators in a top-secret race against time to decrypt a set of recently uncovered ancient runes that threaten the very fabric of time. Draco feels certain he can save the world, if only he didn’t keep getting distracted by his co-lead, one Chief Cursebreaker Harry Potter. If only that distraction didn’t evolve into something so much more.
Hi folks, just an update on Mementos: A Star Wars Fancomic.
Real life has intruded and forced me to take a break from working on Mementos for the past few weeks. The next part is still coming, but it may be a little slow. Thanks for your patience!
