Something that occurred to me as I was writing fic; Carla and Betsy's dynamic works because they are so similar, as we were helpfully reminded by the only positive scene in today's episode. And that is going to be what rescues this harrowing plot.

Betsy has already drawn some boundaries when it comes to Becky; she's growing up and it's been happening without her, regardless of wherever they go from here.

Because they understand each other, I'm placing all my Bets on the littlest Swain being the one to knock our lovebirds' heads together; she'll probably end up being the one to reassure Carla that she gets to keep this fucked up little family no matter what- there's literally nothing more messy than the mire they're in right now and she probably is charging interest on that kidney anyway-and they bond in mutual despair at how Lisa is handling all of this and the pair of them team-up to trip the wires surrounding the invisible cage of impending doom placed around Becky.

Don't underestimate this pint-sized terror with a heart of gold; she's nowhere near in the thick of things yet

yknow what's crazy annoying is I'm trynna quit tech and reinvent my life but also I definitely just secured a higher paying job just by doing their stupid hiring ctf because I fucking love CTFs. They're like ARGs but you get to break things. I love puzzles and I love breaking things. I DO NOT LOVE 9-5 CORPORATE CULTURE.

I’m trying to figure out how to draw these two in my style while also trying to make them look like themselves while also trying to make them look like a Leyendecker piece and someone I get Jayce on the first attempt but have been crashing out over Viktor who I’ve already drawn half a dozen times???

Jfc I've never had a TenRose fic do so badly, is it because it's slow burn and not pure smut? 😵‍💫 But that includes traffic, not just engagement. Sucks because I'm actually really excited by the story but it's hard to keep writing it when there's like one person I know is still reading.

With that and my Insta and Tumblr engagement both also going ghost town this week I'm starting to feel like I've gone see-through 😂😭😵

If anyone is interested, it's a mystery but reveals are coming in the next chapterrr...
