Trapped in cabinets

So we’ve arrived at March and, already, my anxiety levels have been pretty high which is... eh. Not a good sign probably, but at the same time I’m not surprised. I’ve been expecting it but still... eh

As long as I can make it till the 20th when Animal Crossing comes I’ll be ok,

I’m almost done with book 2 of uni, so of course there’s an assessment which... is also eh. Next week is assigned to do it so, hopefully I’ll be able to focus on it.

While my fandomtrumpshate thing got no bids it’s turned out that my fandomforoz one did. I checked it yesterday, expecting to see nothing and was surprised when I saw that someone had left a bid after all. So I guess we’ll see what happens from there. I’ve also had an email from fandomtrumpshate saying that the bid I made didn’t win but I’ve been offered it anyway. So I’m gonna see if I can settle on an idea before agreeing to it (other than a general Ray fic!) I’ve gotten until Sunday for my mind to settle.

Speaking of charity I ended up getting the humble bundle Doctor Who thing. I’m gonna bulk download everything when I go on my laptop next (probably next week for uni) and, hopefully, I’ll actually listen to the audios.

Speaking of Who, last night I started Doctor Who season 19 with Castrovalva. Unusually for most old Who, season 19 starts right where season 18 left off, so it’s good that I watched it two boxsets ago. At the end of season 18, the fourth Doctor fell and regenerated as a result. This takes off immediately after that and deals with the new doctor’s regeneration.

As an opening episode it’s pretty good. Everyone is given something to do and there’s a lot of character moments. Tegan flying the Tardis, and subsequently crashing it, and she gets a lot of nice moments with Tegan. The fifth Doctor is, to start with, trying to recover from his regeneration which gives him a few nice moments with him confused and impersonating past doctors. Adric is captured by the master so spends most of it restrained which is a good look for him, though he still got nice moments with the others.

Castrovalva doesn’t appear until quite late and the recursion reminded me of what happened in the recent Haunting episode. Maybe it was an inspiration?

It was a pretty good ep and after it I watched the making of. It was clearly a new one and featured the cast on some of the locations like the curse of Fenric making of so it was pretty fun. It was also presented by the guy that plays Turlough in later seasons which was nice.

Tonight I’m gonna watch the rest of the special features and snuggle.

Today has been a tad annoying. My focus was off this morning and I dozed again, but at least I did some uni reading. When I came down, though, mum had decided to do off the table so instead of walking Naryu then I had to put everything back on which... ugh I was not in the mood for and now my back is achy. Plus some bits are awol which is annoying. Then when we walked Naryu it started to rain so we came right back.

Plus Midna was just hacking. Has she got a hairball or is she being sick? I dunno cause she ran off. I hope she’s ok.

I’m gonna recharge a bit then finish my Waycest fic.

Fic for meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee (which I had a feeling you hadn't spotted, ha!). I liked the organisations more on the Australia auction if I'm honest so where I had the choice of both, I went for Australia (because koalas. Save the koalas. Also wallabies. And wombats. Australia has both the best and the worst wildlife in the world).

I’ve also had an email from fandomtrumpshate saying that the bid I made didn’t win but I’ve been offered it anyway

And fic from me. Don't feel obliged, hon. I'm a-okay if you decide against it, I just figured I had enough time to offer it, so the option is there if you want it :)

Kudos on doing uni work when you're not feeling it. That is a freaking trimph of mind over matter. Speaking on which, I'm going to stop procrastinating and go do mine!

Yess! I’ll admit when I saw I had no bids for fandomtrumpshate I got disheartened and didn’t check oz. but yeah it has such cute animals🖤

My DMs are open if you have any ideas on what you want? 🖤

You’re so sweet thank you! I just feel I need a clear idea first 💜

Aww thanks, I’ve felt drained and tired lately soo.... good luck!

[dreamersdare]

Best animals ever. And then, on the other hand, funnel web spiders *shudder*

I have many potential ideas, it really depends on how specific you want me to get :D I'll drop you a message

Entirely your choice, hon. Don't feel under pressure to come up with a prompt straight away though; if you decide you do want the fic but aren't sure what exactly, you can take as long as you like to come up with a prompt that suits, I'm in no rush :)

Got some done, should have done more but ran out of day (and brain). Oh well, tomorrow is another day of journal articles.

Yesss koalas and platypus! *tries not to think of them*

Yay! I’ll take a looksee

I kinda want a general idea in my head other than ‘Ray Toro porn’ hee. I’ll have a think some

Aww yeah I can relate but yay you did some!

[sperrywink]

I hope your anxiety lessens a bit. It sucks when it just gets out of hand.

Hopefully, Midna is okay and it is just a hairball or something.

[shadowhive]

Yeah I hope so too *pokes it*

Yeah I hope so🖤 she seems ok today

I think Castrovalva is one of the few stories from that season where it doesn't feel like the TARDIS is overcrowded. I quite like it but I always end up feeling so sad for the citizens of Castrovalva. They're all awesome and I would have loved if the Doctor could have figured out a way to make them real.

Back ache is the worst! I hope you're feeling better by now. And that Midna is also okey!

Ironically one of the special features on the disc is called them crowded Tardis’ exactly about that, which is kinda sad. It showed that having them all could work, it’s just a shame others didn’t

Yeah that did make me sad. It was obvious the doctor didn’t have the time to save them, though would they have survived if they’d simply made it out that tunnel?

It really is. Mostly, but it’s still annoying. Midna seems to be better though🖤
