I WANT A MARVEL AU, BUT I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO DO FOR IT.

C·ECELIA HOLMES:

“Mrs Hudson would just let me in. She likes me. She thinks I’m a good influence.” Celia has always had a knack for getting parents on her side, and Mrs Hudson was as good as a mother for Sherlock ( not that she would voice that anywhere near their own mother, who would undoubtedly be mortally offended that she was replaceable ). It was something about her sweet charm and her insistence that she helped with the washing up or to make the tea. In reality she hated washing up and almost never did her own but she liked parents liking her. She liked it when mother’s took her side and father’s wished they’d had such a delightful helpful daughter. Anyone who knew Cee well however knew she was rarely so selfless. “Or I could badly break in. I’ve never got the lock pick down, I’d have to break something, it would be very unlucky. Honestly I’d suggest letting me do what I want.” She takes aim and throws a dark, which makes a small thud as it marks out a shopping receipt. “Keeps life easy.” 

“ MRS. HUDSON ALSO PUTS STOCK IN MAGAZINE HOROSCOPES and has begun collecting crystals that can be purchased at the shopping plaza; I wouldn’t consider her a good authority on judgement. ” He quipped back, even if the detective knew that the claim his landlady had about his sister wasn’t entirely false. It wasn’t wasn’t correct in the way she imagined. Cecelia was not what pushed him to behave, but rather the pulls of nepotism led him to be more careful when she was around. “ She certainly won’t continue to think that, however, if she catches you putting more holes in her walls. ”

H·ERMIONE GRANGER:

       THERE’S A GLEAM IN HER EYES that would possibly scare a lesser man. sherlock holmes doesn’t sound like the type of man that is frightened of a little … shall we, scientific curiosity from a curious bright mind. ‘ of course i do. how else will i know if it can withstand extreme heat? ’ she pauses, before looking up at him with a smirk. ‘ if i didn’t know any better, i’d say you were scared. if you find my activities too extreme, i can find another partner, mister holmes. ’

                     ›     good omens book quotes, from @deductivereason·.

HE WAS NOT SCARED, but he considered himself a tad bit more cautious out of the two of them in the moment. Oh, how the shoe was on the other foot. “ I’m not so easily dissuaded, Miss Granger. However, you may wish to consider the area in which we are studying, as well as the discharge we had not taken into consideration when we began our work. As much as I am curious to see the limits of the enchantment, I’d hate for us to blow up like a powder keg a milisecond later for it. It might be wise, perhaps, to reassess ? ”

DOCTOR WATSON:

@deductivereason asked:  ❝ we’re all human, tragically human … and we all make mistakes right up until the ends of our lives. you may understand this some day. ❞ from  this meme  !

          WORDS ARE SPOKEN  with  true  emotion.  John  knows  the  statement  all  too  well.  Has  spoken  about  it  often  to  Sherlock,  accusing  him  of  not  being  human  at  times  with  the  enormity  of  his  brain.  While  it  may  have  been  true  once  upon  a  time, Holmes  is  the  most  human  individual  John  knows.  He  regrets  his  words  and  actions.

          “I  think  I  understand  quite  well,  old  chap.”  A  sad  smile  touches  his  lips.  “A  lesson  we  have  both  learned  multiple  times  over.”

HOW MANY TIMES HAD THEY DONE EACH OTHER WRONG ?   Oh, there were countless incidents that came to mind... however, there was a near equal amount of forgiveness and acceptance. He had once dismissed the fanciful, not as much as others claimed he did --- but he had not found it a helpful contribution to his work. The one that that drove him onward and kept him off the brink of madness from the mediocre.

OH, HOW FAR THEY HAD COME.  “ I’d strongly agree, doctor. Gladly so.  I am thankful to have made such a journey with as fine a friend as you. ”

NATASHA ROMANOFF·:

CARING SENTENCE STARTERS

she didn’t want the help , but with a bandage that kept slipping out of her hand she sighed and gave up , “ fine , you do it better anyway , ” with a huff she relinquished control over the bandage around her arms the wound only pulled closed with stitching that wouldn’t last very long with how quickly natasha would return to training . “ thank you , ” @deductivereason

IT HAD BECOME A SECOND NATURE, patching oneself after a tough scrape. Just as if anyone could relate to pushing yourself back into the fray before really being ready --- it was Sherlock. “ When we’re somewhere with better supplies, we’re going to want to wash that out --- it looks as though it might be getting infected. ”

[deductivereason]

HOLMES DIDN’T MEET HIS EYE, instead his gaze remain fixed at the window. The streets of London a symbolic illustration of how he felt inside. Foggy, gloomy, a growing sense of dread as the rain softly fell upon the pavement. It was cruel, the detective thought, to have his feelings turned against him this way. He wasn’t the one who got cold feet; he certainly wasn’t the one who had decided that love wasn’t enough and went out and found a wife. 

HE WASN’T THE ONE WHO STOPPED LOVING; but he’d be the first to say goodbye. “ Whatever emotional sentiment I may or may not have is not the point. You made a choice, Watson; I did not make it for you. Yet even so, I still cannot bring myself to part fully. A selfish wretch, perhaps that is who I really am. Even so, that part of our life is over now... and I am not the one who dealt the fatal blow. So do not accuse me of not having held love; but perhaps ask yourself why it was not enough.. for that is an answer I cannot provide you. ”

J·OHN WATSON:

“  that  really  was  a  poor  choice  on  my  part,  wasn’t  it ??  “

@deductivereason·

“ A LESSON IN READING THE FINE PRINT, I just hope you stretched this morning. ”

JAMIE MORIARTY:

              “      that just makes it a game with proper stakes,  now,  doesn’t it?      ”  

“ STAKES, OR JUST MEANINGLESS DISTRACTION ? ”   he countered nonchalantly, acting as flippant about the ordeal as possible. Hoping to convince her it was really no use involving certain players.

I FEEL LIKE I SHOULD MAKE IT CLEAR THAT I DON’T REALLY BELIEVE IN THE CONCEPT OF HIGH / LOW ACTIVITY. I THINK IT CONTRIBUTES TO A PRECEDENT THAT REMOVES THE HOBBY-NESS AND FUN FROM WRITING.

I WILL NEVER UP AND ABANDON A BLOG WITHOUT WARNING; SOMETIMES I MOVE MUSES AROUND. SOMETIMES I NEED BREAKS. SOMETIMES I AM VERY BEHIND ELSEWHERE AND IT BECOMES PRIORITY. SOMETIMES I’M JUST NOT WRITING AT ALL.

While it’s always nice to know if someone is going away permanently, temporarily, for unknown time etc… I hate this sense of feeling like you can’t just hop between blogs when you feel like writing on that blog. There is an unspoken pressure about Tumblr writing vs more private places like discord. A public performance aspect, which I think contributes to Tumblr burnout / muse death.

I don’t expect a magic solution to just appear suddenly, nor do I claim to have all the answers — I can only speak for myself.

That being said: I will never intentionally up and abandon a blog on any account ( barring blogs that never launched or any kind of reason where being on that blog might be harmful ); if I have a known reason for inactivity ( eg: hiatus ), I will probably let you guys know SOMEWHERE ( I cannot guarantee every blog to be updated all at once, as the nature of some hiatuses might limit my contact ).

If we have plots and threads, I always care about them… but if I am not feeling that specific muse, I won’t force myself to be on that blog. However, you can still always talk and plot with me… and I might even be up for discord or kik things in the interim.

I don’t think discord or kik or other platforms as lesser; and I consider those connections just as valid as tumblr ones. I often count them into my canon when applicable. Just as I think things we discuss are just as important as things we actually write out.

I am here, but I believe we should be able to just be here when we want to be. Not out of obligation. Just as I believe that people are allowed to lose interest without being vilified. We all have different preferences and if we wanna reconnect later, we always can. It’s fine. Just don’t be a dick about it.

On the flip side, you can always come back to me after x amount of time. It’s all good.

The long and short of it is: all manners of writing and plotting are valid, and let people enjoy their hobbies and pick them up whenever they are up for it. Some muses might be more active at times than others. Some might be feeling one platform over another. And that’s okay. Just be cool, okay?

ALY & AJ - TEN YEARS (DELUXE) & SANCTUARY 

THE FOLLOWING ARE SENTENCE STARTERS BASED ON SONGS FROM ALY & AJ’S NEWER EP’s TEN YEARS AND SANCTUARY. Some lyrics were altered to fit more conversationally, feel free to adjust nouns and pronouns to your needs.

TAKE ME

I’ve got better things to 

I don’t wait long

I’m spending my attention on you

When are you going to take me out?

Show me something

I swear that’s all you ever do

I know that you’d want it

First you gotta ask me out

I know that you would want it, if I could sink my teeth into you

I KNOW

You haven’t left your bed in days

Who’s going to take you home?

Who is going to pick you up?

We’ve all seen better days

I know you know

Who’s really gonna care about tomorrow?

It’s gonna be fine

You’re gonna be fine

We’re all gonna be fine

It’s a state of mind

That’s bringing you down

PROMISES

I saw a car that’s sure not mine

Must be someone here

It’s my worst fear

All this is, is another mistake

Guess I’ll go back

Guess I’ll go home now

All this is, is another big break of promises

There’s nothing here for me now

THE DISTANCE

Sanity kind of got away from me

I feel empty inside

It was hot as hell

Calling should have come more easily

Time keeps on making me hate this

As good as it was, I just couldn’t take the distance

This heart never grew fonder

I’m never going to wait again

There’s so much that I can’t see

GOOD LOVE

Good love is hard to find

Tell me to stay

Look into my eyes

You were on my mind

I woke up naked, laughing by the door

I wanna love somebody

I wanna touch somebody

I keep waiting

Sometimes touch just isn’t enough

Give me good love

WITH YOU

Right now, I just wanna be with you

I always need to be closer

We’re kinda drunk

I found a good way to waste time

CHURCH

I do bad things for the sake of good times

I don’t regret

I’m just selfish

Call me what you will

I’m just in it for the thrill

I need redemption for sins I can’t mention

I need a little church

Cause it’s been too many nights and there’s no end

There’s been too many nights I justified all my casualties of love

I get caught in every lie

I can’t even stop to take care of my own self, let alone somebody else

DON’T GO CHANGING

Here you go again, acting like a stranger

I’m not used to your lips pulling away

I’m always pulling for you

Don’t go changing on me, babe

Whoever told you you’re not good enough?

Why don’t we dance away your fear of love?

You were just what I wanted

Hurts me to watch you fading

I knew you were too good to be true

STAR MAPS

Don’t You/I look so nice?

I’ve been waiting all my life for this moment to arrive

I sold my Sunday best just to slip into this dress

I’ll do whatever it takes

I’ll die for it

I’m on fire

I wanna burn this house to the ground

Have you seen their face?

Can you feel the heat?

The flames are chasing me

NOT READY TO WAKE UP

Oxygen is so overrated

I’m not ready to wake up

I’ve got no doubt

Lay by me

There’s no need to try

Never close your eyes

I’ve got all that I need and it’s right here with me

Your arms feel like freedom

I don’t need no medication

You’re my salvation

When you pull me close, I know

I can’t explain it

SANCTUARY

You’re my north star

Take me home

Be my shelter from the storm

You deserve all my love

You deserve all my admiration 

Thank you

You always bring me to my knees

No one does it better

I’ve come a long, long way for this

I just want to thank you

MINI HIATUS NOTICE

AUGUST 1ST - AUGUST 6TH

I’ll be flying to Connecticut next week to play my role as maid of honour in my best friend, @caresomuch‘s wedding --- which means during this time, I will be offline minus the occasional popping in during downtime / at the airports. I return on the fifth, but I’ll be home late because of travel and the following day, I’m opening at work after a long weekend. So I won’t really be around until later on the sixth. As with on the first, I’ll be sleeping most of the day to combat the fact that I am getting up at two a.m. to get there --- so I won’t be very talkative that day either.  I’ll set my queue up as much as possible before then, time is fleeting as we have a lot to do before then --- but I’ll likely be faster on discord, kik and IMS.
