I had an idea for a fan art painting based on a photograph of Billie Eilish by Kelia Anne MacCluskey. As I was painting it, I started seeing it as a Magic the Gathering token, so I mocked it up for fun. I kinda like the idea of music artist inspired tokens, so i may do a couple more and make this a fan art series.

THE SKYBORN FANDOM EXISTS???

Like, THE Skyborn? Like, the JESSICA KHOURY SKYBORN??? The BEST piece of literature of ALL TIME?

AND NOBODY TOLD ME????

HKPSJSHSBHKNFNSMSN? WHERE WERE YOU ALL?? MY COMFORT BOOKS??? HELLO???

STORY TIME AND YAP ABOUT HOW MUCH THESE BOOKS MEAN TO ME BELOW. My goodness my goodness I genuinely cannot contain my joy and whimsy right now

I genuinely read these books back in like 2021 when they first released in the Scholastic book fair that was hosted via my school. I literally told myself when entering the fair, “If I see a book with bird people or birds, I am buying it and reading it”.

I just wanted to read something self-indulgent without having to worry about what people thought. I loved birds at the time (still do! Take that stinky middleschoolers!), but I was bullied constantly for it… so, I wanted to have a personal book I could enjoy in my alone time without being judged.

And then I FOUND IT.

It was like FATE.

I saw the cover and was so scared one of the mean people who knew about my interest in birds would see me holding it. I genuinely shoved it under my arm and bought it to the checkout counter without even having to read the synopsis. It was under my reading level and I knew that. But I saw the cover and knew, this was the book.

After I read the first book in the series, I got HOOKED. Bought all the other books SOOO quickly.

After finishing the series, I thought, naively, “wow, this is going to be my niche little hyperfixation nobody will know and understand, and I will ultimately be the only person I’d ever know to have read it. It’s a shame this book Dosen’t have a community or whatever, cuz I would love to see what others thought of the book!”

BUT IT DOES EXIST.

ON THIS WONDERFUL WONDERFUL PLATFORM.

I mean, I should KNOW that Tumblr is the ultimate meeting grounds of niche fandoms but…

OH MY PEOPLE… YOU EXIST AND I AM SO HAPPY

I need to talk to you all NOWWW… oh my god I need to reread this book series don’t I. I need to again get mentally ill over bird people right now don’t I.

My favorite character is Nox by far. God he is such an amazing little weirdo. I love him so dearly. I miss him so much guys.

UGHHH. UGH I JUST LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SERIES.

I need people to understand how much this means to me that there is even, even if it’s a small amount, of fans of this book series. It’s just AGHHHHH. This book was seriously such a comfort to me, like a little guilty pleasure for a person that was constantly made fun of for her childish interests. This book series means so so so so SOOOOOO much.

I felt the love that was put into it, the passion, the WORLDBUILDING? The REAL LIFE BIRD KNOWLEDGE?? THE DRAMMMAAA???

I CANNOT EXPRESS MY JOY IN WORDS. GRAHHHHHHH

'Goldwing' Bicycle Update

Been working on fixing this bad boi up for the past few days. Changed out the tires, brake cables, derailleur cables, adjusted the brakes, cleaned + greased the shifters, replaced the chain, and gave it a good washing. Still have a bit of work to make sure everything is fully serviced and operational but I took it for a short test ride up a hill and good grief is this thing a beast-

Might have a new addiction to fixing up bicycles though....might also have spent hours researching bicycle related stuff and spent way too much money on tools and supplies.

On the flip side Goldwing is looking to be one of the best bikes I've ever had the pleasure of owning. It's just the right size for me versus Trojan (a ginormous Dutch cruiser with the nickname 'nutcracker'). Goldwing is a 70's era steel bike I bought for dirt cheap that I have fixed up with my own two hands and I am damn proud about that.

This bicycle is the first bike with drop bars I've had and already it made a difference. At first it was nerve wracking to test drive a roadie without having ever ridden one and with the derailleurs being untested but I put it in a middle gear on the lower chainring and it tanked a fairly big long hill. I'll definitely be disassembling, cleaning, and lubing the derailleurs just to be on the safe side since both are a bit stiff. Everything needs to be either cleaned & lubed or replaced on this old bike but the bones are true. I wish I knew the stories this bike has seen... Hopefully I will add dozens more. The more good bikes I can save from the dump the better. It's rather sad to think about old bikes just collecting dust and grime in storage sheds. I'll be putting miles on Goldwing for sure.

Billie Eilish x gn!reader

Synopsis: Billie and Y/N pay Finneas and Claudias new family a visit

Content: fluff. pure fluff.

Word Count: 1.1k

a/n: i hope you like it! sorry if its bad, Ive had terrible writers block and havent been writing lately.

The sun dipped below the horizon as Billie and Y/N pulled up to Finneas and Claudia's cozy house. Billie was excited to spend time with her brother and his new family, especially now that Claudia had given birth to a beautiful baby girl just a few weeks ago.

The door swung open, revealing Finneas with a warm smile. "Hey, you two! Come on in," he greeted them.

As they entered, the sound of a gentle lullaby filled the air. Claudia was in the living room, cradling their newborn daughter, Lily. Billie's eyes lit up at the sight of the tiny bundle in Claudia's arms.

"Aw, look at her! She's so tiny and cute," Billie cooed.

Claudia grinned, careful not to wake the peacefully sleeping Lily. "She takes after her mom, don't you think?" she teased.

Billie chuckled and leaned down to get a closer look at the baby. "Hi there, Lily," she whispered. "I'm your aunt Billie. You're gonna have so much fun with us."

Y/N couldn't help but smile at the sweet scene unfolding before them. Billie, known for her bold stage presence, seemed to transform into a soft, caring presence around the baby.

"Can I hold her?" Billie asked, her eyes wide with anticipation.

"Of course!" Claudia carefully handed Lily over to Billie, who cradled the baby in her arms with a mixture of awe and tenderness.

Y/N watched as Billie's face lit up with joy. The singer gently rocked Lily, singing a soft melody under her breath. The baby stirred, her eyes fluttering open to meet Billie's.

"Hey, beautiful. Did you miss me?" Billie whispered, earning a heartwarming coo from Lily.

Finneas couldn't help but snap a quick picture of the precious moment. "Looks like Lily has a new favorite aunt," he teased.

Billie shot him a playful glare, but her attention was quickly back on the baby. Y/N couldn't resist capturing the wholesome scene in their hearts, knowing that this would be a day they'd fondly remember.

As Y/N engaged in a heartfelt conversation with Finneas, Billie continued her enchanting interaction with Lily. The living room was filled with the soft murmurs of a lullaby as Billie cradled the baby in her arms, her eyes locked onto Lily's tiny face.

Meanwhile, Finneas couldn't resist teasing Y/N about the adorable scene unfolding before them. "You know," he said with a mischievous grin, "seeing Billie with Lily makes me think you two should join the parent club. Our kids could be best friends."

Y/N chuckled, the idea sparking a mix of excitement and nervousness. "You think so?"

Finneas nodded, his eyes glinting with playful enthusiasm. "Absolutely. Just imagine family picnics, playdates, and our kids growing up together. It would be a blast."

Y/N couldn't help but picture it – a future filled with laughter, shared moments, and the pitter-patter of little feet. Meanwhile, Billie continued to shower Lily with affection, making silly faces and eliciting delighted coos from the baby.

Finneas leaned in, lowering his voice conspiratorially. "Besides, it's about time you and Billie share the joy of parenting. I can already tell she's a natural with babies."

As Y/N and Finneas shared a laugh, Billie, sensing the conversation's direction, looked over with a playful smirk. "What's so funny over there, you two?"

Finneas winked at Y/N. "Just discussing the possibility of our kids being BFFs someday."

Billie raised an eyebrow, a glimmer of excitement crossing her eyes. "I like the sound of that. Our own little crew."

Y/N joined the banter, feeling a mix of warmth and anticipation. "Looks like we might need to start planning for the future, huh?"

Billie grinned, gently handing Lily back to Claudia. "I'm all in for whatever makes us happy. And if that includes tiny humans and playdates, count me in."

The night continued with laughter, music, and shared dreams of a future filled with love and family. As Y/N and Billie left Finneas and Claudia's house, the teasing from Finneas lingered in the air.

"Better start practicing diaper-changing skills," Finneas called out with a wink.

Y/N and Billie exchanged amused glances, knowing that their journey toward parenthood had just received a playful nudge from a brother with a knack for mischief. The idea of a shared future, where their children could grow up together, resonated in their hearts, making the prospect of starting a family even more enticing.

As Y/N observed Billie cradling Lily in her arms, a warmth spread through their heart. Billie's eyes were filled with a genuine adoration that melted away any remaining doubts or fears about the idea of starting a family. The way Billie effortlessly connected with the tiny bundle of joy ignited a spark of excitement in Y/N.

As the night unfolded, Y/N couldn't help but find themselves lost in thoughts of the future. The image of Billie, with a child of their own, played vividly in their mind. It wasn't just about the shared moments with a baby; it was about the love, the tenderness, and the undeniable joy that seemed to radiate from Billie's every interaction with Lily.

In the quiet moments of the evening, as Y/N and Billie drove home, the topic arose naturally.

"You were amazing with Lily, Billie," Y/N commented, a soft smile playing on their lips.

Billie grinned, her eyes reflecting the happiness that still lingered from the time spent with the baby. "She's such a cutie, isn't she?"

Y/N nodded, their gaze drifting toward the passing city lights. "You know, I can't help but imagine our own little family someday. I can already see you being the most incredible mom."

Billie's hand found its way to Y/N's, fingers intertwining in a reassuring grip. "Really?" she asked, a genuine curiosity in her voice.

"Absolutely," Y/N affirmed. "The way you held Lily, the love in your eyes—it made me realize how beautiful our life could be with a child of our own. I can't wait for the day when we get to experience that together."

A soft, reflective silence settled in the car as the couple continued their journey home. The air was filled with a shared anticipation, a sense of excitement for the possibilities that lay ahead. Billie stole glances at Y/N, her heart swelling with affection for the person she envisioned building a future with.

As they arrived home, Y/N couldn't help but feel a renewed sense of purpose. Billie's love for Lily had opened a door to a future they both desired. The thought of creating a family together, filled with laughter, love, and the same warmth they had witnessed that night, was a dream worth pursuing.

Wrapped in each other's arms, Y/N and Billie embraced the promise of a future that held the sweet melody of parenthood. The journey toward building their own family had just begun, and the love they had witnessed that night became the guiding star illuminating the path ahead.
