*pounding on table* X-Files AU! X-Files AU! X-Files AU!
Have a minute and twenty-eight seconds of Shen Wei in chains.
Fanart: So young looking! (so young!) Actual Baby Shen Wei. Oh my god this take on the alien trope y'all. Knives and Beauty. That suit tho.
Briefly recreating some of what I lost in yesterday's post...
writedragon's advice on changing my state is helping. It gives me a reason to do PT exercises twice a day, too. I'd still describe my general mood as Pretty Goddamn Miserable but at least I'm just standing on the edge of the Hell Spiral instead of spinning down the middle.
I'm waiting on beta's thoughts about my revisions to The Second First Time (the Deconstruction missing scene), I've sent off my Deconstruction sequel notes to a trusted sounding board, and I'm getting ready to send 3.5k words of the Hellbent prequel with notes toglymr later today. So that all feels pretty good!
Since I don't have anything fic-related to work on at the moment, I'm gonna tackle some of my correspondence backlog. I owe so many cards! Fortunately I am well-stocked for stationery and postage.
Gotta call my bank, too, to see if there's any way to set up a regular transfer of funds to someone at a different bank (this is how my landlord prefers to receive rent payments). I know it should be possible, but my bank is very small--just a three-state regional bank, which is one of the reasons I like it. But it means a lot of standard amenities available at larger ones... well, aren't. I think Paypal starts taking a cut after a certain amount so that's not a long-term option. If anyone has alternate ideas, I'm all ears. ETA: after spending 30 minutes on the phone with my bank we might? have figured out how to do it? IDK, I sent $10 as a test but it says "expect delivery by December 14" so... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
