This reads like a drunk post but I am not at all drunk. Except on feels.

[st_aurafina]

In my Yuletide fic, Laurent was the one with the tiny pinhole where the feels come from. (Per my drunk post.)

I was just cruising through tumblr, and hugging myself, and telling lilacsigil (for the millionth time) that winter soldier!Bucky looks like he has no feels, but is in fact all full of feels. (This I do with my head inside my stripey jumper so I can pretend I am Natasha in her stripey hoodie.)

She said "But no tiny pinhole where the feels come from."

THIS IS EVERYTHING I WANT IN WINTER SOLDIER FIC. Omg she is so smart!

(And she is also my knight in shining armour, for reasons I can't tell, but just know that she is.)



I have only managed one fic for fandom_stocking, and this makes me sad. I'm just so tired and depleted after the visitors (and my mum managed to freak me out, even though I'm shunned, even though we did not talk at all over Christmas. It seems unfair.) It's taking so long to recover. But I will recover. There is cuddling and cats and leftover icecream concoction that we made for the wee nephews. It's plain vanilla, with chopped up chocolate bars in it. It was a massive hit with pre-teen boys! And tired fangirls.



I go to bed now, because tomorrow is another day. And I will feel better.

Hey? Guess what.

We love you. Even if you don't feel like writing or much else while you cope.

You're wonderful. And we'll be here when you're feeling up to it.

*smishes you* *but gently*

[jenna_thorn]

Hugs!

And one story for fandom_stocking is exactly what I've written, too, so I'm going to be bossy and all and say that's okay, and you're okay with us.

But mostly hugs.

[st_aurafina]

*hugs back*

I got some more fandom_stocking done, but I still agree - what you can do is what you can do, and that's okay.

Gah, your Mom. No wonder you're exhausted. :( *hugs*

I have done a LOT of stuff for F_S, but only because I volunteered to pinch hit. A few days past, and I was thinking, Ho hum, nothing will come of that, when suddenly there was a large request in my inbox! I'm a little antsy that people won't like what I did now, especially because some of it was at the last minute.

Yay for ice cream concoctions, though. I hope there is more relaxing stuff like that in your future! :D

[st_aurafina]

I love the pinch hitting part! I always write something I wouldn't have - new fandom or pairing or something like that.

Argh, family, can't live with em, can't shoot em. One story is GREAT. GO YOU.

[st_aurafina]

I wish I could shoot them. But I don't like the idea of me and a gun. I am not nimble or dextrous.

I got more stories done in the end, which is nice.

[likeadeuce]

Good luck getting your energy back! That ice cream concoction sounds perfect.

[st_aurafina]

The ice-cream was such a cop-out option, but it was by far the most popular thing we served the visitors. Even the adults wanted more.

*smishes* I hate rollercoaster times like this. Every year, ugh.

[teigh_corvus]

I know, right? And then into the weirdness that are the first months of the new year. :P Some year I'll actually *remember* to put a warning on the calendar.

I hope things are a bit shinier for you now, my dear. *hugs some more*

Give yourself time to recover.
