hilsI'm aware I haven't posted here in a month so I just wanted to check in and let everyone know I'm still alive. Still not going out much even though I'm fully vaccinated but I'm starting to ease myself back in. Took my car into the garage last week and went into town for a couple of hours while I waited because I didn't want to take a bus home and back again. It wasn't too bad. It was a Friday so most people were at work which was probably a good way to start. I popped into the pharmacy to get some more allergy meds and there was one other person in there, and I popped into a restaurant that was doing takeout food only to get something to eat and that wasn't too busy either. Then I found a nice bench and read a book until I got the call to say my car was ready.
That's a bit weight off my mind at least. There's a few small issues with my car that I've been getting by with that are now fixed so I don't need to worry about them anymore.
The big exciting news is that I'm finally going to see my parents. They've both also been fully vaccinated and Scotland has loosened the rules where they live meaning it's okay for 2 households to mix. I'm heading up on 12th June and will be coming back on the 20th. I haven't seen them since December 2019 so it's going to be super weird. My aunt has also invited me to visit so I can pet her kitties (I haven't touch a cat or a dog since December 2019 either) and has said my cousin will cook us dinner. My cousin is a trained restaurant chef so I'm excited by that. Restaurant quality food without having to go to a restaurant!
It's also going to be the first full week I've had off work since February 2020. Don't get me wrong I've been taking days off, but it's mostly been a Friday or a Monday to have a long weekend rather than any sort of extended break. I can't wait!
Work is ticking along and I feel like I jinx it every time I announce I'm done with recruitment so let's just say I currently don't have any interviews lined up...
Fandom stuff is also ticking along. I finally finished Nirvana in Fire. It was excellent. Jacqui and I watched Word of Honor together. She loved it and has already ordered some merch. I didn't hate it or anything but it didn't grab me the way some other shows have.
Drama watching is now on hold while I play the Mass Effect: Legendary Edition. I'm almost at the end of the first game and Jacqui is enjoying watching me play it so she doesn't have to play it herself.
I have no idea what we're going to watch when I've finished all three games. I have a list, of course, but there's nothing on the 'omg must watch immediately' list. I'll see what takes my fancy when I'm ready I guess.
I've posted a couple of fics this month and my current WIP is done and in the process of being edited. My word count for the year is now at 69k (nice) which is incredible I honestly don't know how I've managed it. Writing in small bursts is clearly a method that works for me because I can't remember the last time I got this much written.
This is what I've posted since my last update on here:
Title: Go On As Three
Fandom: The Lost Tomb Reboot
Pairing: Wang Pangzi/Wu Xie/Zhang Qiling
Rating: Explicit
Summary: “Hi,” he whispers softly, so as not to wake Xiaoge. He’s also trying not to move because Xiaoge’s head is currently resting on his shoulder, but with Pangzi touching him like this it’s proving a little more difficult. “Happy month-late birthday.”
Title: Sun-soakin' Bulges in the Shade
Fandom: The Lost Tomb Reboot
Pairing: Wang Pangzi/Wu Xie/Zhang Qiling
Rating: Teen
Summary: The ingredients laid out before him now are fresh, purchased from the market just an hour ago, all carefully washed and prepared ready to make what he knows is going to be a delicious stir fry. There’s just one ingredient missing, which he’d dispatched Wu Xie to fetch in from the garden and naturally Xiaoge had followed to help. He glances down at his watch and makes a face. It’s been at least ten minutes and if they wait much longer some of the greens are going to start to wilt.
And I also worked on a fun little project withachray, elenothar, fangirlishness and teyla. It's been so long since I've done a fic collaboration and it was a blast
Title: Recast
Fandom: The Lost Tomb, The Lost Tomb 2, Ultimate Note, Tomb of the Sea, The Lost Tomb Reboot
Pairing: Wang Pangzi/Wu Xie/Zhang Qiling
Rating: Teen
Summary: Pangzi comes over and stands in front of them, surveying them both, hands clasped behind his back.
“My friends,” he declaims. “Since we’re to be parted so soon—or some of us are, anyway—and we’re going into untold danger and mystery, and facing whatever the Zhangs left to fuck with intruders, which I bet is going to be good—”
Wu Xie coughs, pointedly.
“Fine, fine,” Pangzi says. “I got us something. Got you something, I mean. Not all of us are stingy gift-givers, ah, Tianzhen?”
OR
Five times Wu Xie and Xiaoge lost their gift from Pangzi and one time they gave him something in return.

Date: 2021-06-05 06:35 pm (UTC)I am also fully vaccinated, but barely have time to go out either.
I am almost finished with "Word of Honour". It took me a little while to get into it, but am now enjoying it.
