Challenge 269:
SELF-INDULGENCE

n. excessive or unrestrained gratification of one's own appetites, desires, or whims

Usually you’re a little more restrained than this. But just this once...it’s time to indulge.

What do your characters indulge in? Maybe it’s as simple as a hot bath, a long nap, and their favorite food – or maybe it’s something much more dramatic. Maybe it’s something that really shouldn’t be indulged…

Write a story about self-indulgence.

BONUS GOAL: “It’s just once!”

If your submission features this line, it will earn an extra point to be tallied in voting!

Challenge ends Monday, August 4 at 9:00PM EST.

• Post submissions as new entries using the template in the profile
• Tag this week's entries as: [#] submission, 269 – self-indulgence
• If you have questions about this challenge, please ask them here

[ SECRET SUBMISSIONS POST #971 ]

The first secret from this batch will be posted on August 2nd.

RULES:
1. One secret link per comment.
2. 750x750 px or smaller.
3. Link directly to the image.

More details on how to send a secret in!

Optional: If you would like your secret's fandom to be noted in the main post along with the secret itself, please put it in the comment along with your secret. If your secret makes the fandom obvious, there's no need to do this. If your fandom is obscure, you should probably tell me what it is.

Optional #2: If you would like WARNINGS (such as spoilers or common triggers -- list of some common ones here) to be noted in the main post before the secret itself, please put it in the comment along with your secret.

Optional #3: If you would like a transcript to be posted along with your secret, put it along with the link in the comment!

Title: Change Of Plans
Fandom: The Fantastic Journey
Rating/Warnings: PG
Bonus: Yes.
Word Count: 1000
Summary: The situation is settled and the travellers plan to continue their journey first thing in the morning, but there’s an unexpected delay. Sequel to last week’s entry, just because I loved the idea of Sil-El playing guard cat.

( Change Of Plans... )

Current Mood: tired
Current Location: my desk

Encanto gen: “Intrusive” [@ AO3]
RATING: PG-13.
SUMMARY: Bruno has a special relationship with Casita. That’s not always a good thing.
NOTES: It struck me that even before his ten years inside the walls, Bruno had probably spent more time alone with Casita than
anyone else in his family.
Thank you to

Challenge 268:
SLEEPING IN

It’s been a long week, and you are not getting up.

The world’s been saved once. It can wait until 10 AM to get saved a second time. Sure, there’s work to do, but it’ll still be there in another fifteen minutes. Maybe you promised your friends you’d meet them for lunch, but you still have plenty of time if you hit snooze just one more time…

Maybe there’s a reason your protagonist is so reluctant to get out of bed today – a particularly comfy bed, particularly good company, or a really late night. Or maybe they just feel like getting a little more sleep!

Write a story about sleeping in.

BONUS GOAL: Fluffy Kittens

If your submission features cats (of any age), it will earn an extra point to be tallied in voting!

Challenge ends Monday, July 28 at 9:00PM EST.

I'm currently working on a few Encanto WIPs, one of them at 17,500 words. The large one especially involves the large family cast of characters, which I'm enjoying writing.

For reading, I've been mostly frequenting the Murderbot (TV), Thunderbolts*, and Encanto pages at AO3. I'm not accustomed to being fed this well, fannishly, over the summer.

+++

I tried shooting at St. John's Cemetery the other day but only had great lighting for a few minutes at a time and never in the areas I wanted to take photos in so I ended up with nothing. The last time I checked Thursday, none of the Manhattan stores I frequent had new window displays that interested me.

+++

"Deku's Surprise"
A shippy, comedic fan video for the BakuDeku pairing in My Hero Academia [Boku no Hero Academia] that I enjoyed enough to watch several times. The voice actors sound a lot like the dub VAs, the camera movement on the art works very well, and the sound effects add a lot. (The sound when Deku's head meets Katsuki's chest sounds a lot like a squeaky toy!) Then there's the intrusive thought moment on Deku's part....

Current Mood: weird
Current Music: "Disagree" by Rotersand
