So I've just spend way too long working on a part two for one of my oneshots - I won't say which, but that's the update for next week I think. It ended up being a bit too long........over 3300 words in the end I believe.
What can I say? I miss writing supernatural Taekook. But now I'm in one of those sleepy, slightly soft moods brought on by writing and listening to some good music. So I'm just gonna ramble for a while, if I may. Just because I feel like it.
First of all, the most important thing. I was at work on Sunday and there was a 13 week old (I think Labrador) puppy. It was literally the cutest lil bean you've ever seen. Fluffy, on a lead, sniffing about like everything was fascinating. I mean, to be fair, when you're a 13 week old puppy, everything is new. So it's fair enough.
You don't know how much self control it takes to not yeet myself over the till counter thing, steal the dog, and run out of the door laughing maniacally to myself sometimes. They're just so cute, and I want one. I never actually would, theft is bad kids, and I'd lose my job. But like......it's tempting sometimes. I think you can understand that.
But we get some good doggos at work. And I'm so glad we do.
Also I bought my mum sloth cookie cutters for her birthday and I can confirm that they work. And the cookies were quite nice too, if I do say so myself. Took a while to get the actual thing to work because I was using the wrong side but let's ignore that and pretend I got it right first thing. Just for the sake of my ego. Much appreciated.
Why do you need to know this? I don't know. I just love sloths sometimes okay they're cute. Lil dumb smiles. I love it.
Though the flamingos were much easier to cut out and create, I must say, some of them ended up with broken necks. It's okay though, because they're made of cookie dough so they can just be eaten and therefore taken out of their misery.....now I sound like a complete monster. I'm talking about shortbread here! Not actual animals!
I would never mistreat an animal. Wouldn't even consider it. Things like that genuinely frustrate me. Why would someone, out of nowhere, decide to treat another living being like utter shit? The logic of that just doesn't compute in my brain. It's the same as being cruel to other people. It's just pointless and unfair.
I'm not a vegan so I guess I'm kind of a hypocrite with this, but I just feel like there is never an excuse to just be cruel to an animal, no matter the situation. Cat pooped in your shoe? Just clear out the poop and tell off the cat. Don't beat it with the fucking shoe.
I don't actually know anyone who did that but it's an example, okay? The principle counts. Not the technicalities.
I will happily admit that I'm a relatively sheltered and lucky child. I accept that totally. But I don't think that anyone, regardless of background, should be a dick to the world around them. Just because someone had a bad life doesn't mean that suddenly basic rights don't apply to anyone else. Does that make me overly judgemental? You can decide, I don't mind. I just have opinions. Which for some reason I'm sharing. I don't really know why. I feel like it.
How did we even get onto this anyway? I was talking about sloths and flamingos and puppies. All of which are awesome. Don't even argue with me on this. My English teacher last year had a sloth in a river as a background - it was the best thing ever - and her favourite video was a sloth swimming. That explains everything. Pretty much everything.
Might also have something to do with the sloth plushie I have which is the best thing for hugging in the world. There's no explaining that. It's large and rainbow and fluffy. What more do you need in life?
If you didn't know that I was an utter child, then this will come as a huge shock. But there's a toddler at the heart of my brain. And she doesn't wanna wake up any time, so she probably won't for at least a few years until I get crushingly destroyed by the harsh reality of life as terrible and traumatic and hopeless. Until then? Irritating child it is.
I mean at this point, wonders, you don't seem to mind, so I'm just gonna carry on and hope you think it's cute not weird that I'm not killing my inner child like some dumb remake of Peter Pan where he grows up and starts to adult. Nobody does that. Everyone stays child. It's very normal.
She says uncertainly, not knowing if anyone else does the same thing but hoping they do otherwise this is very awkward. And if that's the case, I'm just gonna go hide under my rock from the rest of the world and carry on being child.
Child is my identity. Which sounds more weird than I anticipated.
I think I'm sleepy enough to go to bed now.
I'm just gonna leave you with something beautiful on the top thingy banner thingy? Just because it's necessary. If it makes you laugh, tell me. Because I fucking love this vid. And I know it's old. But I do not care.
It funny. That good enough for me.
