I was going to post some more fic recs but the problem with that is that I end up skimming through the fics I want to rec to remember them properly again and when most of them are like 20-100k long and you are tired a lot and also probably need new glasses because eyes are... tired, that... is a thing that will happen tomorrow.

So instead I just grabbed the latest questions from fridayfive

1. Forest: Do you spend a lot of time in nature? Do you want to?
No, not enough and I would like to. This is one of the main things I miss about Finland: easy access to nature, no car required. I have access to some coastline where I live (within walking distance) but I miss forests.

2. Cereal: What do you usually eat for breakfast?
Any food eaten first thing during the day is breakfast regardless of what it is and what time you consume it. That is to say I'm pretty omnivorous for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks etc. But for convenience my most common breakfast options are porridge (oat, rye, rice, semolina) with jam, plain yoghurt with oats, nuts, seeds, and fruit, toast with something on it, fruit and cereal bar for uni days because they travel well. Coffee or tea, though neither is necessary.

3. Flu: How do you cope with getting a minor illness?
Who said I was ill? They're lying. It's just sniffles. I'm not ill. Shut up.

4. Worm: What sort of dirty/messy activities do you enjoy?
Baking and cooking. Sometimes I like to mess around with water colours. Oh, and sex. It's messy if you do it right and I enjoy it :D

5. Bang: What's the last celebration you went to?
Colleague's 60th birthday lunch.

Good evening!

I'm going to try and stay up later today in honour of it being Saturday and I want to claw back some fun online time. Venom on TV is helping. Today I went out for breakfast because I had nightmares and some brain gremlins. Whilst in the pub, Shakira's Underneath Your Clothes came on and now I have a strong urge to write Ryan's pov fic to complement Access All Areas. I bought myself a 'vampire' candle (black on the outside, red on the inside) and spent some time chanting 'bleed, my precious, bleeeeeeeeeeeeed' at it.

Anyway. There's a Kissathon for all types of kisses and all types of kissing related things happening on undeadrobins ' journal. I'm eyeing at the prompts, but mostly just dropped some of my own. I'll just copy them here for... reasons... *bats eyelashes beguilingly*

Shetland, Jimmy/Duncan, whiskey and honey
Good Omens, Aziraphale/Crowley, kiss of life
NCIS, Tony/Tim, tipping point
Firefly, Mal/Jayne, hostage
Person of Interest, Harold/John, service
Grimm, Nick/Monroe, blood
MCU, Tony/Bruce, for science
Harry Potter, Remus/Sirius, hello/goodbye
Buzzfeed Unsolved, Ryan/Shane, dare

Fandom Stocking

2018-12-25T18:49:05Z

***

So, the last two years I've really enjoyed stuffing stockings over at fandom_stocking and last year in particular I ended up writing quite a few things for it. But this year I don't know if I have time or energy for that, although I will definitely have a browse.

However, I have actually hung up a stocking of my own. You can find it here in case you feel inclined to leave a little something-something...

Dot-to-dot, the dark version

2017-08-31T20:39:28Z

***

So, you may remember me mentioning that I rather enjoy not only colouring but dot-to-dot. The ones made for adults have hundreds of dots to connect and it is so amazingly meditative and a sure fire way to calm my brain down before I sleep.

Normally, that is.

However, this one magazine I bought revealed pictures that were... somewhat unsettling. So much so that I had to take photos to share... I would like to reassure you that these pictures don't look like they do because I made mistakes. Oh no, I did them perfect. THEY ARE JUST FUCKING BIZARRE.

( Observe: )

So yes. Let this be a lesson to you all. What may seem like a harmless past time may turn out traumatizing.
