Also Finished This Postcard. The Hyperfixation Is Real.

I think I forgot to post this when I finished it, so here you go.

Finally watched Guiltrip, it was a very cute episode

My main takeaways from the episode were that my support network isn't nearly as good as I thought, and I should probably look into those headaches I get all the time

I was reading an ML fic where Ladybug mentioned being scared whenever she saw butterflies in the park, and I just couldn't get this image out of my head:

These poor kids are traumatized, somebody help them

It just occurred to me that we've heard all the protagonists of Infinity Train sing:

Tulip sang for nearly half of episode four.

Jesse sang "Travel Friends" and Lake improvised on the same song mockingly.

Simon and Grace's VAs sang two lines each in "When I Look at You, I See Me".

Ryan and Min-Gi basically spent all of season four singing.

. . . I'm adding this to my looooong list of reasons to love this show.

This . . . this might be my favorite thing I've ever written. Well, of the things I've posted online, that is. I just . . . the music and the fluff and the cultural and synesthesia undertones, and the trust, and the singing . . . I'm actually really happy with how this turned out, which is a little unusual. I'm not sure if it'll be quite as heartwarming for other people, but hopefully you'll enjoy it anyway.

Everyone always compares Infinity Train to Adventure Time or Gravity Falls or Steven Universe, but to me, watching Infinity Train always feels more like watching a studio Ghibli movie: captivating, immersive, and surreal.

So maybe I'm unqualified to say this as someone who's never been in a relationship, but actually, forehead touches are much more romantic than kisses

fheskekkvrjkckec okay so the all left AU (courtesy of @sabertoothwalrus) would not leave me alone, so I wrote this fic.

I told myself that the first story I'd link to on here would be one I was confident in and proud of, but then this happened, and (as is becoming a trend in this AU) I had to get it out and share it.

It's so late where I live, I'm so tired, I have no idea how bad this is, but I wrote it and I'm sharing it and uh . . . yeah.

Edit: If you liked this, here's the "sequel"

Unpopular opinion: Vin/Elend is actually really well written.

Not because of the pining/buildup in the first book, but because of the way the established relationship was written in books two and three. It's rare to see characters together, on screen, in stories. Rarer still to see them having problems that they work through, arguments, doubts, differences, and issues that they overcome because they love each other, even if they're different people. Rarest of all to see love that lets a character sacrifice their loved one for the world as the loved one would want, instead of sacrificing the world for the loved one.
