Saw A Post About Battling Dysfunction By Pretending To Be An Alien, And I Suddenly Remembered How I Broke

Saw a post about battling dysfunction by pretending to be an alien, and I suddenly remembered how I broke myself of the “there’s something watching me” anxiety in middle school.

I pretended that there WAS something watching me, but instead of wanting to like eat me or something, they were my own little guardian creature that just wanted me safe. I pretended they were a giant invisible lizard creature who just hung on the wall and liked seeing what I was working on, no matter how embarrassed I was about it. Art that looks weird because I messed up the arm? They were glad I was finally finishing it. Fanfic that’ll be buried until the day I die? Well at least I’m improving my writing skills.

So... yeah. It worked!

On literally ANY OTHER DAY, you’d be just FINE with being whisked away on a magical adventure. Happy- elated even! To find a far off fantasy land that can only be saved by two people with hidden magical powers. Not when your partner is your Ex.

Writing prompt

In a world full of superheroes and supervillians, you have the ability to see into the future. It’s very limited however because you can only see 24 hours into the future, thus you never really bothered telling anyone and only used it for party tricks. Now however, it is a sunny Saturday morning, and you have just received a doomsday vision.

Was looking for some inspiration to practice “conversations” between two of my characters so I could work on emphasis and intonation, and @majorpepperidge kindly offered up a practice script for me to tackle!

Revali deals with some…concerns.

My hobbies include-

- Randomly skipping back and forth across the living room because I felt like it

- Combining two completely unrelated fandoms in my head and wondering how it would pan out for hours on end

- Consuming hard boiled eggs with the shell (crunch crunch)

- Staring. Sometimes accidentally at a living person

- Waiting specifically till after the sun has gone down to write out an idea I had because writing while the sun is up is strictly forbbiden in my head

- and finally

- Reading reader x character prompts on tumblr but replacing the reader with another character (all the Revali x Reader prompts are now Revalink)

After playing through the entirety of age of calamity, I can officially say my enemy was the map the entire time.
