There's one thing all of Steve's partners should probably be aware of and that is that his top priorities are a bunch of children who aren't related to him and a girl who never stops talking and gets a little too close to him for comfort but they both swear up and down that they're completly platonic and the idea of them being any kind of romantic together is gross.

It makes dating difficult because he'll have to radomly cancel on plans sometimes and there are only so many times someone will understand 'Max fell of her skateboard again I have to take her to the ER' or 'I'm so sorry but I promised Lucas I'd help him practice his shot tonight' or 'Robin went and left her keys in my car again and now she's locked out, do you mind if I'm just a little late?'. It always stops being sweet eventually, but Steve doesn't mind because if someone can't get on board with his family committments then they're not the right person for him.

Robin insists it's because he dates all these really uptight people who see him as a status symbol. And he needs to find someone more laid back chaotic to compliment the chaos in his life. After his latest date falls through because one of his friend decided to 1 v 1 Lucas in basket ball and dislocated his little finger (Mike, goaded into it by Max), he tells Robin he gives up and allows her to set him up with her friend.

He's surprised at first when Eddie "the freak" Munson steps into the diner, mostly because he didn't know Robin knew the guy. Once they settle into it though, Steve realises he's having fun, more fun than he usually has on dates. And it definitely helps that Eddie is just Steve's type with his wavy brown hair and big doe eyes.

The banter between them is flowing well when Steve catches sight of the date in the corner of the screen of a TV on the wall.

"Oh shit," He says, his heart sinking because he actually likes Eddie.

Eddie notices Steve's expression falling and touches his arm gently. "What's wrong?"

Steve lets out a loud sigh. "I just remembered I promised Dustin I'd go to his debate team thing tonight. He's been practicing for ages, I'm going to have to go."

Eddie gives him a small smile. "Ah yes, the single mom duties Buckley warned me about."

"Yeah," Steve sighs. "There's always something, but I love them. They're like family, you know?"

Eddie nods. "Yeah, I know."

Steve prepares for rejection. "I can drive you home on the way?"

"Drive me home?" Eddie questions, confused. "And miss Steve Harrington doing his best impression of a single mom? No chance, I'm coming with you."

While Steve is reeling over that, he adds. "Besides, I gotta meet the future step children and embarrass them publically at some point. It's an important right of passage."

Steve is ready to propose right there, luckily Eddie breaks him out of it by handing him their food to go.

A few hours later they're almost thrown out of the event for yelling things like, "Yeah, tell him Henderson!" Every time he catches his opponent off guard.

While Dustin rolls his eyes at them fondly, Steve looks over at Eddie, sees the delight and mischief in his eyes and thinks, 'Yeah, this one's here to stay.'

Wolfstar Pirate AU fic update!

Chapter 39/42 of The Subtle Art of Sinking Ships :)

Fic Summary:

At five-years old, Remus Lupin is kidnapped by Pirate Captain Fenrir Greyback and thrown aboard a ship full of thieves and murderers. Over the years, Remus earns his reputation as a formidable navigator - never speaking in public, and always keeping his face covered by a mask. One thing is certain: there is no one who hates Remus more than wealthy aristocrat, Sirius Black. When Remus flees Greyback's ship and tries to forge a new life for himself, it's just his luck that Sirius finds him there too. But Sirius has never seen Remus' face. He doesn't know of Remus' true identity - that 'Moony' is the same pirate he considers his enemy. To survive, Remus must hide who he really is, even if it means suffering the company of a man he'd rather kill.

I have a lot going on next week so I might not write the next chapter by Sunday but I'll try my best!

Finally finished 😭 Timelapse at the bottom! I had an idea for my Wings of Pages series, where instead of text, it's a book full of botanical illustrations. The majority of the time was spent on the individual flowers for each feather/page of the wings. I really love the look of old botanical books with the water color paintings and the scientific names written in cursive. So I spent way too many hours painting out 20 of these flower pages, and even then, it wasn't enough for the wings so I did have to duplicate some.

Here are the 20 flowers! The HD image of Atlas Botanicus, and all 20 HD flower studies without watermark will be DMed on Patreon.com/Yuumei on May 5th, along with the hours long video recording of how I painted everything.

Not to go "if you have ADHD just go for a run" or anything, but I am so serious if you have ADHD you should regularly go outside, no headphones no phone no nothing and just stand and observe for a while until you've had enough. Not until you get bored, until you've had enough. Drink your coffee without watching tiktok. Have a bath without music. Turn down the volume in your headphones. I cannot overstate how much learning to be bored is cruicial with ADHD. Life is not just about pleasure, no matter what your dysregulated dopamine system thinks, and when you teach your brain to be okay with being bored, then boring tasks stop feeling like torture. By letting yourself be bored you are yoinking your system out of the high/low binary and allow for the highs to feel like actual highs and not just anything that isn't low. I am so serious go literally touch grass. Listen to the sounds in your flat. Stimulate your body the way it was designed. It lowers anxiety and makes you feel like you're real and best of all it's completely free

I really wish more ADHD mental health care told you WHY things like this matter to our quality of life.

The Hyperactivity in Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is NOT about being physically hyperactive, it's about having a "hyperactive central nervous system" because it's a form of inheritable dysautonomia. The problem with disautonomia, especially the ADHD kind, is that it makes boredom flag to your nervous system as a THREAT, triggering hyperactive and maladaptive central nervous system processes like fight or flight.

But dysautonomia kills you that way. Literally, part of the reason our average life spand increase on stimulents is that it helps manage risk-taking impulsivity that can get us killed by accident, but the other part is that stimulents can regulate a hyperactive CNS such that it is functionally (while impacted by the stimulent) NOT dysregulated anymore. And PHYSIOLOGICALLY that is essential because the physical outcomes of dysautonomia can reduce your life span by YEARS if not decades through self-perpetuating hypervigelence, endocrine disruption, and adrenal fatigue.

So when the ADHD brain goes stimulation-seeking and a doctor tells you to practice mindfulness, it feels like being told "hey go stand in a functioning boiler until you can stop thinking" rather than WHAT IT IS which is the process of re-teaching your body what is and isn't safe.

Standing outside making mindful, non-interpretive/moralized observation of the world helps your brain and body re-acclimate to the idea that absence of that frantic "busy" feeling isn't a threat or a risk to your safety, and gradually reduces the level of distress that just hanging out somewhere triggers for you.

Learning WHY this stuff was being suggested and understanding what it was actually supposed to do went a long way towards changing my relationship with my ADHD. I am FAR more functional now, far less prone to shame spirals and rejection sensitivity, hell, I can **sit physically still for near on an hour at a time** now without feeling like I'm going to crawl out of my skin.

So yeah. Go outside. Let the world narrow around you and take deep breaths until it stops feeling claustrophobic or like you need to climb walls. Learn how to let little sensations become big ones like the way the heat of the sun on your skin starts as a gentle warming and be omes a unique collection of sensory moments depending on how it lands on you. Listen for sounds under sounds and let them fade in and out as you move your focus from one sound to the next. Enjoy. Move on. Rinse and repeat.

When you no longer feel like the world is actively killing you, it's a lot easier to navigate it.

An aquarium in Japan was closed for renovations, and their resident sunfish got depressed not seeing visitors. So the staff put some uniforms with printed faces against the tank, and it immediately recovered.

Ive never really met anyone that thought of ribs as interesting… that’s such a shame. Ribs and the things they do are fascinating…. I think about them everyday.
