April 21, 2022 | Serena's diary

  International TV series.  The color pink. The smell of freshly-brewed tea. These are things that make me happy. I like brewing new loose-leaf blends, 6 bottles at a time. I like discovering new ways to crochet. If you use 10mm hooks, you can use 2 or 3 strands of regular-sized yarn at a time and make interesting color blends, and the garment will be thicker, warmer, and more durable. If one ball runs down before the other two, you can use the closest similar color. It's like magic. With stitches so large and switching yarn so addictive, projects get finished much quicker, too. A shawl that takes weeks with a 4.5mm hook and a single strand of yarn now takes days with three yearns and a 10mm hook. Efficient and beautiful. Although, I have many pending projects that were started with a single yarn, and changing the size of the stitch will make the item less lovely. I'll worry about that later. I have my boys to spoil, after all!

Coffee. Tea. Wine. Food. Books. Shows. I have all I could want. I'm in the process of building a real life for myself.

January 7, 2023 | [ROOMMATES] – Désmoda x Harald [WIP]

  Désmoda had been living a comfortable life—well, comfortable for her. She had a rather nice roof over her head and she could  get to the market if she wanted  to ride in the carriage. But she also had a few people she could ask to do so for her… for a sufficiently-inclusive definition of “ask”. Yes, she’d released the last poor bastard she’d indentured from her cellar, but not without taking some insurance that, should she request a favor or two, they’d not feel in a position to turn her down. And now that her cellar was housing only empty wine casks at the moment, she found herself in need of someone to share her home. She’d never admit it, of course, but she did get terribly lonely from time to time. Maybe there was a more appropriate way to meet men than entrapping, torturing, and blackmailing them… but how would she know? Her mother had wanted to raise a lady and she’d wanted to spite her mother, so away she’d run when she was 16, taking some of her dowry with her b...

September 17, 2022 | Nate x Royce – First Meeting

 Nate to Royce: "Didn't know anyone else was in here."   Shit! That fucking door! He really needed to change the damn locks sometime soon because this was getting annoying. Luckily though he'd merely been checking his new hardware, that had gotten infected now twice. Dropping his shirt and tossing the bloodied gauze into the trash he shot a glare towards Nathaniel. "Yeah well.... Someone was in here. Move." He half growled to the other male who was currently in the doorway of the bathroom..   "That looks nasty. Do you need any help?" Nate asked. He wasn't exactly accustomed to helping other people, but it was considered polite to ask, regardless of how rude this guy was being.   "You a fuckin ripperdoc now to? Or a doctor even?" Royce snarked rather immediately as he glanced over his shoulder long enough to glance at Nathaniel then moved to kick a rolling stool that sat at the back of the massive garage over closed to a rather tall lo...

   I love that Sigefrid loves cuddling ♥ He's not the type to admit to it, but whenever we sit together, it's like we  have  to be touching. He's also not bothered by me doing my language lessons in his presence. In fact, he loves learning about other cultures as much as I do. So cuddling in bed with him and using Duolingo together is a pretty perfect start to our day... after the sex, of course ♥ Sometimes he automatically translates my lessons out loud, from memory, so we're brushing up on languages together. That will help with expanding our international syndicate.
