Special Agent Buster - Unleashed [ch 4]

Written by @frogsmulder

The Busterverse is hard to contain in just one series so we created Buster Unleashed as a way to tell different types of stories and welcome guest authors who want to contribute. Updates may not be as consistent as the regular series but we look forward to sharing our furry tails with you.

Buster Unleashed is a collection of short stories and omitted scenes which take place inside the Busterverse. Part one of the series is Fool Moon, this collection continues on from there.

Guys we are SO BACK

[mamuscript]

okay I was talking to a myoot about this a few weeks ago. the absolute sisyphean weight that GA is carrying in this scene because. this is? three seconds of film? and she manages to convey that 1. she’s proud and excited to tell him that she has a date, 2. she wants to appear aloof while doing so, 3. she wants to see how he reacts to this knowledge, then immediately 4. she’s a little embarrassed at having felt all those things because they’re flirty and not professional, so 5. she tries immediately to get a handle on herself and return to being Professional Scully.

I want to highly recommend two tools for helping you with this very sad situation, which you must use before it happens.

The first is this wonderful script that will automatically add key information (that you choose) like author, title, summary, etc to your bookmark notes so you at least know what got deleted.

The second is this incredible bulk downloader for AO3. Input any AO3 page (such as your bookmarks page) and tell it what format you want to download in and it will just.... DOWNLOAD IT ALL!! I run it every few months so that I have all my bookmarks downloaded in my preferred EPUB format. That way I know I always have my favorites downloaded in case they ever get deleted.

With the combination of these two, I can look in my bookmarks, see what was deleted, and easily find it in my downloads. It's such a relief to have my own fic library is all my favs!

[bakedbakermom]

can someone help me out with installing the bulk downloader? i have downloaded the file and right-clicked to run with powershell, but all that happens is the window pops up for a fraction of a second, with some red text i don't have time to read, and then it closes almost immediately.

[bakedbakermom]

a friend of mine who is a genius figured it out! if the install is failing for you, search your computer for "Allow local PowerShell scripts to run without being signed". in windows 11 it's under system > advanced then scroll down to terminal and look for powershell "change execution policy to allow Powershell scripts to run without signing" and toggle ON.

janeway has a i’m so mad i’m going to murder this guy kinda look don’t ya think💀🤣

[darksideofthecoffeebean]

Doc's despaired "Here we go again. Fantastic, now she's really mad" look is just as great 😂.

Because he knows, some reckless shit is going to follow.

[aquarterpastfour]

That look when you realize there's about to be a medical emergency.

[darksideofthecoffeebean]

@aquarterpastfour Yeah, it's either her or her victim 😅

one of the hardest things to learn as a depressed former Gifted Kid™ is that half-assed is better than nothing. take the 50%, 40%, even 20% job. scrubbing your face is better than not taking a shower at all. picking up your clothes is better than never cleaning. nibbling on some bread is better than starving.

DO THINGS HALFWAY. NOW YOU’RE 100% BETTER OFF THAN YOU WERE BEFORE.

[redheadhatchet]

One of my college professors used to say “anything worth doing is worth doing poorly.”  I didn’t understand that for years because I didn’t do anything poorly, I couldn’t do anything poorly, I had to Do Everything Perfectly.

But brushing your teeth for 30 seconds is better than not brushing them at all when that 2 minutes seems exhausting.  Doing ten minutes of yoga is better than 10 minutes of sitting when 30 minutes of cardio sounds impossible.  Changing my clothes is good when a whole shower is impossible.  Standing on the porch for a few minutes is worth it after being in the house for three straight days because I don’t have the energy to go anywhere.

Anything worth doing is worth doing poorly… because doing it poorly is better than not doing it.
