    Just recently got a refsheet for the Lyudmilla, the character introduced in my short story. Looks sick, super hyped.

    I've heard some people use "special with a capital R" before. Not so sure that's better or worse.

    I see. So no novelty soda stores close enough? I could yap for hours about brands I get from them. Fentiman's, Reading Draft, Johnnie Ryan, Virgil's, etc.

    You talkin' one of the major brands or just any soda in general? As the resident Soda Jerk and someone who used to run a soda review blog, I can possibly point you towards more specialty brands that aren't so filled with sweeteners like the major brands do.

    Well dang, there goes another thing I was enjoying but have to drop. Except this time it's because the story disappeared. Guess it got deleted.

    'Plan to read' implications

    Pretty much exactly what CinnaSloth said applies for me, too. If I've put it on my "Gonna Check Out" list, it means exactly what it says on the tin. If I have the time to read and am both not distracted by other things and caught up on what stories I've already started, I'll grab one from there...

    I was maybe a couple hours in? Could be worse, but that's still 2 hours. Even if I was in the mood to start something else, it's getting late. But tomorrow's another day and I have a memory like a colander, so it should be okay if I get to sleep tonight.

    Love just happily reading something I'm enjoying and then suddenly getting hit with that "immediately drop this" scene that just tanks my mood. That's an extra special feeling.

    Recommendations Recs for a Squeamish Reader?

    I see. Yeah, that's fair. That's pretty much one of the bigger issues I have with fanfic, that they often rely on that knowledge. Good on you for doing that! With the issues I tend to have, I've learned to pay attention to every tag, warning, etc. that I can. I've got doesthedogdie.com...

    Recommendations Recs for a Squeamish Reader?

    Yeah, that might do. Definitely putting that on my list to check out soon.

    Recommendations Recs for a Squeamish Reader?

    I took a look. For the former, I guess I did forget to mention I don't really do fanfic either, especially if it's of an IP I'm not familiar with. Might at least give it a shot anyway. As for the latter, you do have it labeled as having gore, which is already concerning. I apologize if all this...

    Ah, I know this feeling quite well. "Depression & Anxiety Land" sounds like the world's worst theme park.
