Character: Squall Leonhart
Fandom: Final Fantasy VIII
Theme set: Gamma
Rating: G to Mature (various)
Warnings: Light drug use, mentions of torture or aftermath of torture, sexually implicit themes, trauma, mentions of bullying, memory loss and probably other things I forgot (I'll update this).

I currently have it solely on my Notion page right here, but I will upload it Dreamwidth and Tumblr later (I'm just so sleepy).

Ignore how I have it set up to have updated word counts, since I was running late, I don't have each and every entry the way I initially formatted it.

Signup Post: Nature Challenges in 2026

[personal profile] ysabetwordsmith posting in [community profile] goals_on_dw
There are all kinds of nature challenges and goals that people like to do. Some are individual, others are group events. Some are all year, others shorter. Some have activist themes, others are ordinary. They span a great many different formats including but not limited to art en plein air, birdwatching, environmental projects, gardening, nature writing, outdoor activities, and spending time in nature. Here are some for your inspiration. On Dreamwidth, see [community profile] birdfeeding, [community profile] common_nature, [community profile] gardening, and other Nature communities.

You can pick whichever challenge(s) you want to set as a goal in 2026 and reply with a comment. Below the list of challenges is a short form for listing which you have chosen. Make a post in your blog like "I signed up for the Nature challenge in [community profile] goals_on_dw" -- or list the specific challenge if you're doing an official one somewhere else instead of a personal one here. Then make a tag for it like "Nature Challenge" and put that on the post; it should stick that way. Check your Interests page to see if you have Birdwatching, Environment, Gardening, Nature, Outdoors, Wildlife, etc. listed there, which helps people find you. You don't have to sign up to participate, it just helps spread the word and attract more readers.

There is a Bingo Card Generator if you want to make your own using premade lists or whatever prompts you want to paste in. Various sizes and styles are available.

See also the Arts and Crafts, Community Thursdays, Fannish 50, Reading, and Writing challenges. If you want to write a naturalist's guide to an exoplanet, grow a Hobbit garden, paint the architecture of an alien arboretum, or review every nature book you read all year, go for it. You can even double-count anything that applies to two or more goals, e.g. [community profile] inkingitout and 1000 Hours Outside.

Do you know of any other nature challenges in 2026? Share a link so they can be added to the list of options.

Grand larceny was not one of the crimes it warned Pin-Lee it was planning to commit. To be fair, though, the transport really wanted to be stolen.

I'll bring some red delicious fruit soup.

Some raw broccoli, just like meme told me to with their eyebrows from across the store.

I can't believe nobody is bringing spider bread. Do holiday traditions mean nothing to you people?!

I shall be working tomorrow (Christmas Eve) and need to leave the house at about 8.30am on Christmas Day, so I don't have a lot of time for preparation... but there's always time to squeeze in a little writing with a notebook balanced on top of the saucepan while preparing sprouts and packet noodles for supper, as I have just demonstrated :-P
(Admittedly it was about a sentence and a half, but I do intend to finish that sentence tonight, honest guv...)

Does genius burn for you today, Jos and Joes?

LONELY PROMPTS WEEK::23 DECEMBER § DAY 2

[personal profile] simplyn2deep posting in [community profile] comment_fic
December 22-26 is Lonely Prompts Week and it will be a challenge week! Each day will have a different theme for you to base the prompts you fill on.

In the past, we used to have a "winner" who completed the most fills every day, and at the end of the week, we'd announce an overall winner. But this time around, we're doing things differently! There are no winners or “losers”, just prompts that have been filled. At the end of the week, we'll be sharing a round-up post of all the lonely prompts that have been filled.

Tuesday's Theme: Same List, New Choice

More Information: Fill prompts from one specific day of the week. Pick only prompts that come from Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, or so on.

If you leave a request, please make sure it follows the theme for the day and that each request is a new comment.

You are more than welcome to fill any and all lonely prompts, but only the prompts filled for the current theme will be counted for the daily totals. I will however include a list of those who filled other prompts when I do the round-up at the end of the week.

Please number your fills when leaving more than one in a comment. This helps me when I'm ready to count them up.


To find those elusive Lonely Prompts, you can go into the Calendar Archives, or for more recent prompts, you can use LJ's advanced search options to find prompts to request and/or fill.

To get things going, a few rules that I ask you all to follow.

1. You can only request five prompts to be filled. Please create a new comment for each prompt request.
2. You can request no more than three prompts from the same fandom.
3. You can, however, fill as many prompts as you'd like!
4. In the subject line, be sure to say whether this is a request or a fill!
5. You must link back to whatever the prompt is in the community logs (whether filling or requesting it be filled), and, if you're filling the prompt, please complete the fill as a response to the original prompt.
6. If you are filling an "any/any" prompt, please let us know what fandom (or, if original, say so!) you're using for the response.
7. If you filled any lonely prompts earlier this week, this is the place to share them!
8. Finally, we now have a community at AO3. If you have an AO3 account, please post your fills there. More information on how to do this is located at this link.

…I caught a new newsburst, relayed from a ship that had just come in to dock. It was a brief statement from the Preservation Alliance by Dr. Bharadwaj.
It was unexpectedly odd to see a familiar human, even if she looked really angry. All she said was that Preservation was “taking steps” to resolve the issues with GrayCris.

The Day in Spikedluv (Monday, Dec 22)

I hit Walmart and Price Chopper while I was downtown. I also had a meeting at the funeral home, and later went to the nursing home to retrieve my aunt’s personal items. (They’ve ‘lost’ her wedding ring, which irritates me. I don’t know what I can do about it; it was listed on the inventory of personal items when she arrived, but didn’t go to the funeral home with her.)

I did a load of laundry, hand-washed dishes, ran a load in the dishwasher, went for a couple walks with Pip and the dogs, cut up chicken for the dogs' meals, and scooped kitty litter. I roasted a chicken (with mashed potatoes and corn) for supper. So good!

I read fanfic and watched an ep of The Pitt. Dr. Pol was my background tv in the evening.

Temps started out at 20.8(F) and reached 32.9 (that I saw). There was some sun, which made driving in the car nice, but not walking the dogs. o_O
