The steam library really is the gamers refrigerator. I keep checking to see if there's anything I want to play. I have games. I have plenty of games. There's nothing i want to play

“You have an accent.”

Only when he’s drunk. Belkan wasn’t a popular accent to have outside of Belka, so he’s probably more cautious about it than he needs to be. He doesn’t care that Cipher knows. In fact, he’s glad. Despite their blood and reputation, they were kind. Better than the stuck up nobles masquerading as warriors.

Kind enough to help him out of his boots when his fingers lacked the coordination. Their hands were warm when they pulled his fumbling hands away from his scarf to undo the knot themself. Were it anyone else, he’d be offended. But they knew what that old piece of fabric meant to him. They wouldn’t rip it.

They leaned in close, letting him see all the curves and lines of their face. Their eyelashes fluttered over their crystalline eyes, focused intently on his neck. He’s smiling like an idiot, but he can’t help it. Cipher barely looks up, and rolls their eyes, but the slight tug of their lips is more than worth it.

“Ich liebe dich.”

He doesn’t know if they know what it means, but the slight moment of hesitation tells him. Despite their cold exterior, Cipher could be more emotive than he was.

“You are drunk.”

Both of those statements are correct.

The Chipi and the Chapa

It's so weird talking to people who's view of "here's the way life is for everyone" is shattered as soon as they talk to someone with disabilities (physical, mental illness, any). Like you'll say you'll have a problem and instead of helping you they'll argue with you about how you're not actually facing that problem. Like,

Me: Hey, I'm really struggling to find a job and a part of it is my resume. I was depressed & psychotic during highschool so I didn't do anything to gain skills or achievements to put on my resume. I also don't have anyone to put as a reference. What can I do?

Them: You can add your skills, hobbies, clubs you're in, and different volunteer work you've done! You can also get your teacher as a reference.

Me: I already know what to put on a resume, my issue is that I don't have things that I can use. Also, I'm in my mid 20s so I don't know if I can put my highschool teacher as a reference.

Them: Well if you're a part of a church or an activity group, you could add that. Also, think of any projects you've worked on in the past.

Me: I already know you can put these things on a resume. I'm not looking for suggests of things I've already done, I'm looking for what I can do now if I haven't done anything.

Them: There's no way you didn't do anything during highschool?? What about some odd jobs you definitely did for extra money, like babysitting or mowing the lawn?

Me: I spent all of highschool either in modified classes or in bed doing nothing - not even hobbies, what about that do you not understand?

And then you talk to someone who's also disabled and they're like "Here's a bunch of jobs you can do from home that don't pay much but look good on a resume, here's some free online courses that also look good on a resume, here's how you can be making small amounts of money in the meantime, here's some things you can put besides a professional reference, and here are your rights if your future employer tries to take advantage of your disability - which you probably shouldn't tell them about unless you need accommodations."

And suddenly my will to continue trying returns!
