Everybody stop what you’re doing RIGHT NOW and celebrate the last Out of Touch Thursday of 2020

Welcome. Welcome to Tumblr.

You have chosen, or been chosen, to relocate to one of our finest remaining social networking websites. I thought so much of Tumblr that I elected to establish my Administration here, in the Citadel so thoughtfully provided by Our Benefactors. I have been proud to call Tumblr my home. And so, whether you are here to stay, or passing through on your way to parts unknown, welcome to Tumblr. It's safer here.

Hey with all the piracy going on, be careful

you don’t know what could have a virus, don’t blindly trust random people on tumblr/twitter offering free cartoons!

I made these as a way to compile all the geographical vocabulary that I thought was useful and interesting for writers. Some descriptors share categories, and some are simplified, but for the most part everything is in its proper place. Not all the words are as useable as others, and some might take tricky wording to pull off, but I hope these prove useful to all you writers out there!

(save the images to zoom in on the pics)

Hey hey hey hoo hoo! Guess who it iiiis with a whole ‘nother Rhythm D oc! This time, I give you Crystal Winters! A world renowned figure skater who collapsed from a heart attack during a performance in Middlesea.

There is a lot written under the cut here so do be prepared if you wanna delve in!

She was known for her excellence in remaining graceful on the ice and maintaining the appearance of floating weightlessly as she glided, as well as her immense gratitude and charity with both her fans and those less fortunate than her. Overall, she is regarded very fondly by most all that know her and, despite being a world class athlete, she very much prefers not to make too big of a fuss of herself. Even when all this happened, all she could think of was how scary it must have been for the audience to witness.

As such, Crystal's time spent in Middlesea Hospital will kind of be the inverse of Lucky's. She understands that this is a serious situation and that it will take quite a while for her to get back on her feet, but the doctors are doing everything they can to help her and, with patience, she'll be back on the ice before she knows it! No need to show anything else but a smile while she's there, right? It's not the doctors’ fault that her body just decided to fail on her.

So… why then? Why is it that she cannot help but feel so… sad? Why is it that she wants to just curl in on herself and… cry… at the prospect of not being able to perform anymore? People have sent her flowers, cards, little plushes wishing her well during her recovery period, and they're all so sweet, yet…

She doesn't wish to make it anyone's problem or be too much of a burden on the people helping her to get better, but Crystal cannot help but feel exasperated, upset and disheartened about the fact that she will be left useless for months to come. That she will have narrowly few outlets to expend her energy and clear her mind of her troubles. That the possibility of her heart not being strong enough to ever allow her back on the ice looms over her like the clouds on a snowy day.

Outwardly though, Crystal shall present herself as happily as one can, taking time to listen and understand what the doctors tell her while seeming to take it as “just one of those little things that happens in life!” before then going on to bake complex gourmet desserts for five hours so she can do something energy consuming.

A real Pollyanna to contrast from Marie being such a Primadonna!

Speaking of Marie...

… She happens to know Crystal aaaall too well. Frighteningly too well, in fact. In fact, upon being told of her arrival at the hospital, Marie adamantly refused to take her on as a patient, shoving that task onto Ian and Ada while she took over their responsibilities for the day in turn. She will do absolutely everything she can to remain scarce with anything involving Crystal, though is very much unlikely to tell anyone why this is precisely. You can expect her to use her time powers a lot for the sole purpose of avoiding her at every possible turn.

Maybe some day we'll find out why that is…

OOOH ASKS ARE OPEN ummmmm what are crystal's feelings towards marie?

oOOF-

Pfft okay let me start by saying you picked maybe the most complicated question for me to answer hehe but I shall try my best!

Alright, so, for starters, the last time Crystal saw Marie was when they were both 17, with them now both being 26. The end of their relationship... wasn't exactly a great one, Crystal cut ties thinking negatively of Marie and vice versa.

Now, with Crystal able to look back on things through an adult lense, she can see that things aren't exactly as black and white as she once thought them to be, that there are many more layers to somebody than just "Nice" and "Mean", "Good" or "Evil". Even though Marie was no longer a part of her life, she couldn't say she didn't still think about her, wonder how she was doing, hope she was doing better after all the years that passed. Even despite everything, she couldn't bring herself to hate Marie.

Once she does find out that Marie is working at the same hospital she is now a patient in, Crystal will wish to extend an olive branch, to talk, to start from the beginning with Marie and try to make things better between them both. They aren't kids anymore, what mattered back then shouldn't have to matter now, and even if it's impossible to truly go back to how things once were, she still wants to try and be her friend. Kindness is stronger than holding a nearly decade-old resentment, that's what she feels anyways.

Marie's working in the medical field now, that must mean she holds at least some desire and wish to help people get better. That means it shouldn't be too hard to get her to understand, right?... Right?

Thanks a bunch for the ask! Hopefully this answers it pretty well!
