At last, here we go. My season is about to start --

For values of 'about' meaning that yes, it's marginally cooler now but the actual proper turn of the season in the swampland is a good two or three weeks away. But it's better. Marginally.

I'm clinging to the goodness of autumn, because oh my God I have been battered by friends' bad news the past couple of weeks. I don't know about you, but there's something destabilizing about wave after wave of bad news. Even if there's a day or two where everything seems fine, I'm hypervigilant. Anxious as damnit.

Oh well.

Otherwise, I have a list of, like, fifteen shows to watch on my streaming services, but I have not been able to bring myself to watch anything -- other than Hit Man, the Richard Linklater movie starring and co-written by Glen Powell. It's well done, Powell's great, and I've been thinking about the movie's lightly drawn take on identity and role-playing. It was fun.

But because I have been anxious as damnit, I've finished the Twisters series I've been writing, and for the sake of completion, I'll link the last two fics:
*"Best Moves," wherein everyone conspires against Tyler for his own good and also, there's a dog;
*"Best Days (Slight Return)," which is the end of the story. (A happy end, and the characters will go on to have great lives. Because I'm anxious and I want them to be fine.)

Anyway! We persevere! Hugs to all, and a good beginning to your autumn.

Hypervigilance is just exhausting. <3

I am battered by friends' issues, too. Wish I could detach, but I feel what they feel. Empathy can be a real burden.

Hope your autumn just gets better and better.
