Another post that’s, again, a bit more random stream of conscious type beat.

I’m glad I watched the Pokémon stream on Thursday. Ie pelted it to be just finishing the Kalos Pokémon league arc, which was true for the opening eps but then it shifted in such a surprising way. Pretty much as soon as the last battle finished Team Flare went into action and caused chaos. It was honestly so exciting and even after 4 eps it wasn’t resolved so I’m eager to see what’s going to happen with that. And everyone was doing their own thing, even Team Rocket got involved against them which was so cool (and Steven for some reason and Hesse is right he is dreamy).

I’ve managed to get back on Tears Of The Kingdom buy it’s not been doing anything major. It’s mostly been just exploring thoughI did stumble on some clothing and did some shrines. I warped to Kakariko to explore there when I next go on it. (I saw someone bought up on twitter that they should have added the well from OOT or the shadow temple, which would’ve been cool and spooky)

Also gaming I’ve been doing Ghost Trick but not much. I’ve only been doing one chapter at a time which isn’t too fast, but they’re so clever and can be tricky already (I just did the 4th last night). I did wonder if I have missed things by not following on some of the traces, but we’ll see.

(Though I’ve not been great at going on star rail or genshin impact because it’s felt I’ve not had the time)

I finished the UNIT audio boxset today (I might listen to the behind the scenes stuff later) and it really did turn out to be better than I expected. When I first saw it was an Auton boxset I didn’t think it’d be too great but they actually made it work really well and had such clever ideas (like I mentioned in the last post). I might listen to one of the other box sets this week. There isn’t another UNIT one alas, but there is Tales Of New Earth and a 10th Doctor one.

The weekend has been kinda tiring. I dunno if it’s because of the sudden change in weather or it’s residual stuff from being sick (or just mental stuff) but I’ve been so drained and so inside my own head which isn’t ideal.

My friend linked me to a bandom prompt memethe other day and it’s nice that there’s one going and it’s waycest friendly. None of the prompts sparked anything in me (probably thankfully) but after some pondering I did leave one.

But it also got into my head a bit because… I do miss bandom stuff, but I also don’t miss it. And it unintentionally bought back a bunch of stuff and made me feel bleh.

I think it hasn’t helped that I’ve been in my head a lot about fic in general, which I think has contributed to how bad I’ve been at ficcing. I’ll get what I think is a good idea, start working on it, then stall either because I get stuck or I talk myself out of it or… whatever. I dunno, maybe I should just… stop trying. A few days ago I had similar thoughts and it ended in me locking the season of kink post which I’ve thought about just… not even trying.

Bleh. Maybe I’ll change my mind soon but I’m not sure. We’ll see.

I had intended to watch a film last night. I’d seen that there was the latest Paranormal Activity on film4 and I was gonna catch it. I grabbed Doritos, put the digi box on the channel (so I could rewind if I missed the start) but I just went so tired and knew I wouldn’t have the focus. Which sucks but maybe it’ll be on the 4 player to watch another time. But I dunno, we’ll see if I’m in the mindset for it.

I woke this morning to a dm on discord and I won an Xbox code for something called Jelly Brawl so I might download and check it out later. Though we’ll see what my headspace/energy is like. There’s no real plans for today, other than A Year On Planet Earth tonight and maybe the proms (and maybe a Poirot in a bit)

I’m sure I had something else on my mind but it’s gone now, ah well.

This coming week there’s not many concrete plans but there are a few things. Shoto has a long birthday stream tomorrow, there’s the two Pokémon ones (though I suspect only one will be finishing the Kalos arc), mum’s friend is coming Thursday and there’s the next dungeons and dodongos. And there’s new Futurama and Hello Kitty Island Adventure, yay!

Other things I wanna try and do:
*More Zelda
*More Ghost Trick
*Watch something on Shudder
*Read the graphic novel and comics that have been sitting there for ages
*Make decisions on Xbox and who audio sale things
*Maybe do other June something

After the post last night I ended up listening to a few Eurovision 2021 songs before heading up and going to sleep. I was a bit woozy from drinking most of a bottle of Buck’s Fizz and, let’s be honest, I’m still feral over those kiss pics.

It was so fun watching the show, rambling about it on Twitter and posting in a TUA a discord about it with other people. I love this show (though Spain getting nothing from the public is still wrong)

This morning I ended up listening to Blind Channel some more and they’re so good! I need to listen to Maneskin some more too. I love that there’s so many pics/vids of them together and I hope for fics.

(I do feel bad for Greatest Hits coming out now, during the middle of the Eurovision hype and now the post Eurovision wanting to check out other bands [I have three in my Spotify] but I’ll listen to it more soon)

Today’s plan then, is to mostly rest and I saw that Frozen is on BBC 1 so I’ll watch that. However, before that I’m making a post.

So over two years ago (the fuck?) I made This post about if you wanted to ever write me a fic. As such it’s a little out of date I meant to update it to add some guys (mostly Maxx) but I decided (and I blame skinwalker for this), to not just copy/paste it, but to also redo it and add pics.

So be warned that under the cut is a lot of pics of pretty boys, some in states of undress and they’re mostly band boys (Welshmen, British boys, Americans, Finns, Italians). I will warn you now though I’m am 80% sure that I have forgotten some glaringly obvious people. I may edit them in at some point.

Also I was originally gonna put this in some form of order (namely alphabetical) but nope. It’s just the chaos of whatever order I uploaded them to dreamwidth.

So enjoy!

So there it is! Phew! I’m sure I’ve missed something but… ah well. Enjoy and lemme know thoughts and if you have questions or such!

Edit to add an additional boy

Streamer version of this is here

So this part of the sunshine challenge is all about fulfilling someone’s fandom related wish. I’m not sure what I’ll do for it yet (to be honest I haven’t been up for long) so this post is more about the sort of things I’d like in case anyone feels like doing me something.

First off, I did do a fandom wish list of sorts awhile back here and here is a pic post of most of the guys mentioned in the post.

So first I’m gonna add thing some other general things not covered by posts.

Recs

I’ve not been very good at keeping up with ao3 lately (due to my uni assignment then my exam) so I’ve not kept up with certain tags (or looked into them). I have a huge bunch of fic tabs (or doom) I need to read and I’m hoping to read them in the mornings now it’s the summer vacation. So! First off I’m gonna request some fic recs.

First is The Umbrella Academy (tv). I was pretty good at monitoring it but I lost track of it sadly about two months ago and I’ve only kept up with the multi part fics I’ve subscribed to. I’ll read pretty much anything with Klaus, Diego or Ben that’s slashy (Though I’m eh about Dave, he’s kinda blank to me).

Second is Lucifer. I’ve not gone through the tag at all, in large part because I’m working my way through it and don’t want to run into spoilers (I’m midway through season 3). Anything slashy with Lucifer would’ve awesome,

Third is The Flash, like Lucifer my main issue is because I’ve only watched the first three seasons, so I don’t wanna run into spoilers (which I did the last timeI looked). Cisco related slashy goodness would be awesome (I have a soft spot for a Reverb too, he died too soon damnit).

Music recs

If anyone has any music they want to rec, please do! My music taste is all over the place, from Kylie to Motionless In White, to My Chemical Romance.

Icons

I’m in the process of sorting my icons out (read as, I need to boot my laptop up to make/switch them round which I’m putting off). If anyone has any Lucifer pics I could use for them, that’d be great.

Fic

My fandom wish list post mentions some of the fic I’d like to see but I’ll give my main wants here for reference.

As you might tell if you looked at the pic post linked above, I have a thing for guys with curly hair. Alas there is not much fic of guys with them. Claudio Sanchez, Austin Diaz, Ilan Rubin and Ray Toro all are underrated. Ray is the only one that has content, but even most of that is him as a side character. Anyone that does slash fic with them is a+

General bands that need more love fic wise (look at the tags there’s not much) The Used, Motionless In White, Good Charlotte, Madina Lake, Blue and Bullet For My Valentine. Look at the tags for them and there’s not much for any of them which is a shame so any slashy goodness would be great. (if Bullet Id prefer if it included Jay of course since I’ve not read anything with him in ages and he’s vanished into the ether.) honestly I don’t get why some bands lack content, some are just so slashy (Blue did a naked photo shoot not once but twice, The Used frequently kiss etc) Also the Palaye Royale boys don’t get much love with each other which is a shame and for MCR there’s not much new content for Ray or Waycest. I suspect tumblr’s purity people are putting people off which sucks.

Cisco, Lucifer or The Umbrella Academy content would be awesome too.

Anything for these would be awesome, even if it’s something short (I tend to read smutty slashy stuff mostly, but I’ll read anything if it’s good especially if it’s for the smaller fandoms or people.

New people

I’ve got some old Who boxsets on the way so I’m thinking of posting my thoughts as I watch them. It’d be awesome if you’d be interested in reading them to give me a follow. I’m always looking for more people to befriend to ramble about such things with. Also if anyone is into Star Wars that’s be great too.
