she comes to me when I dream.
So, I caved and actually asked for a bingo table at hc_bingo. Because clearly I've lost my sanity. I'm not even huge on the genre as a whole, but I wanted to see which prompts I'd receive and if it'd work for me at all, because sometimes I don't mind H/C. (I asked for them to leave off sexual trauma and abuse, so if you're going to get a table and you're not comfortable with those prompts, please make sure to tell them that. Because a lot of them involve child abuse, for some reason.)
coma
werewolves: fresh bite / first transformation
mutation
wings (sudden onset)
seizures
homelessness
nightmares
ghosts and hauntings
slaves (regular)
ritual sacrifice
sore muscles
panic attacks
WILD CARD
agoraphobia
werewolves: accidental mating for life w/ inappropriate person
cursed
stalkers / serial killers
build-up of job-related trauma
earth blowing up, escaping to space
social phobia
undercover: discovered and hurt
body hatred
heat stroke
scars
burns
...I don't even know what to make of most of these prompts. They're not particularly offensive, since most of them are very tame; some of them are just silly, like 'slaves' and 'wings'. (Seriously. wtf, wings? What is that even about?) And what's with the werewolves and what do they have to do with the H/C genre?
Some of these, I can work with, though! So this isn't a total bust. I don't think I'll be able to complete the entire table, but I can get close to it.
I came back from a barbecue at my older sister's place. I ducked out early because my head was bothering me and I felt like I was getting sick again. One of the lowest highlights of my night involved Jason's thirty-year-old sister apologizing for making a crude gesture in front of me about dicks and assuming I was a really young teenager. Yes, believe it or not, I am twenty-two years old, damn it. D:
I attempted to watch this lame anime last night, and...I forgot the name of it. I discovered it when I was looking at this list of Anime Love Scenes on YouTube and I thought I'd give it a try. But I ended up hatewatching episodes three and four before I finally gathered my senses and dropped it like a bad habit. It was basically a girl reluctantly loving a boy who treats her like shit but the boy is set up as this secretly wonderful and soft-hearted guy on the inside SO IT'S OKAY, EVENTUALLY HE STOPS BEING A JERK and ugh. I hated it and it was only four episodes, so I'll get back with you with the name of it if anyone's curious.
Oh and in less than happier news, I lost my debit card at Target. They destroyed it by the time I reported it missing. But gee, it would've been nice if they notified me any of this OVER THE PHONE when I called and asked if I left it there. 8| So. I guess I'm going to have to report it missing and asked for another one.
And because I forgot to mention it, Scruffy's improving very quickly. He's walking normally, his appetite is slowly coming back, and he's interacting with us again instead of sitting around and staring off into space. I think what helped was that my parents stopped giving him his painkillers, which were making him too loopy to do anything. His head is still tilting, but he's much better off than he was when we first brought him home.
