general update
I had an appointment with my psychiatrist, and she thinks I need to eat better (true) and that I'm hypomanic right now (also true), so ... there's that. At least the appointment is over and I can go back to my brain buzzing in a million different directions without being additionally stressed about her.
I'm trying to read a biography of Thomas More by his son-in-law and it's incredibly slow-going—unsurprisingly, given where my concentration is at right now. He's in the Tower now, though, so the end is in sight.
A stranger on Tumblr said I was an international treasure for a post describing everything we know about Pemberley from the book, which was really sweet, esp on a post I didn't at all expect it on.
And I've been working on pro patria, my GW2 slight-AU fic, which has a whopping six bookmarks on AO3, but which I know some people read and which I'm deeply attached to. My version of the PC is deeply flawed and really fun (for me). RIP to the notifications of the people subscribed to my AO3 for ... idk, literally anything else, though. I do wish I had some more motivation for Darcy/Elizabeth right now, though. I'd love to get through tolerably well acquainted. Or make some progress on the Darcy/Elizabeth femslash fic that occupies part of my brain. Or anything—I'm having amorphous Darcy/Elizabeth feelings that I can't really articulate atm.
I'd like to make more progress on my Faramir/Aragorn femslash verse, too, although it's even more niche than the GW2 fix-fic. F!Aragorn/Aranor is still problematic, but also really attractive to me (which makes her funner to write), and I might like this f!Faramir (Míriel) even better than the other one, much as I love both. I didn't come up with machinations to keep Míriel in Minas Tirith during the evacuation, so she just gets one piece of astounding news after the other before she even shows up in MT, now in a very uncertain position. It'll be fun!... someday.

Good vibes for psychiatry things <333

And thanks psych-wise. Hypomania is disruptive, but definitely less than depression, so I'm trying to be more optimistic than is usually my inclination. At least I have energy!
