Today is cloudy and mild.  It rained again last night.

I fed the birds.  I've seen a few house finches and sparrows.

I put out water for the birds.

EDIT 12/26/25 -- I did a bit of work around the patio.

I hope those of you who celebrate Christmas had a nice holiday yesterday, and that those of you who don't had a good Thursday. Happy Holidays to those of you who celebrate any sort of December holiday. Things have been in varying degrees of chaos around here, and are likely to continue to be so for at least the next week.

Here's hoping that 2026 is better than 2025!

[personal profile] vriddy
Friend told me that Uncategorized Fandoms don't show up on your AO3 dashboard, and now I'm mournfully looking at my K-9-less dashboard, like poking at a scab... but also wondering if I'll have written enough for the fandom to show above the cut when it does eventually get wrangled XD


Show of trust | K-9 | Fujimaru Jin/Hizuki Ren/Kagari Yukito/Oboro Yuushirou | 1.6k words | rated T

Summary: Oboro and Fujimaru are down, while Ren and Kagari are left to face off an ever-growing mob of sin users on their own.

Read it on Dreamwidth on AO3.

HALLO EVERYONE! This is like the fourth post I've made in the past two hours so sorry for spamming your guys' reading pages BUT I really want to share these icons I just uploaded. I'm gonna actually play the game soon, so I needed at least one for that. This game has been so influencial to me anyway, so it's mandatory at this point.

But yeah MY BABIES. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH [teeny spoilers: all the women in this game are so mentally ill and then there's Shu]
