These 26-hour days were not supposed to happen anymore
My job is primarily as an explainer of things.
Eg (1):
Me: Your mortgage will be paid off when you sell the property.
Client: Why can't I pay off my mortage a few months after I sell the property?
Also me: *struggles to define "mortgage" in an easy-to-understand way*
Eg (2):
Me: You're supposed to repay your loan with the money you get from the sale.
Client: But I hate handling large sums of money. Why can't you do it?
Me: Because.
Eg (3):
Client: Yes, my wife and I are buying the house. Does she need to come and sign the documents?
Me: *What do you think?* Yes.
So, work has been fun. Add some RL stuff and it's been time-consuming thing after time-consuming thing. Which is another way of saying ficcing is taking more time than I planned. Which pisses me off, because I have all these things in my head to write, and when I come to write them I'm already out of energy, gah.
Part of that could be the new obssession with The Untamed, ahahah, which comes in novel, animated and live action versions, so you're spoilt for choice. Well, it's a good problem to have.
Lan Zhan|Lan Wangji/Wei Ying|Wei Wuxian (I gotta say, I'm loving this birth name & courtesy name thing, it's so layered) fics:
It's Only Time, by etymologyplayground
Grand Pianos Crash Together, also by etymologyplayground
The Heart of a Lan, by cerbykerby
The (Several) Convenient Kidnappings of the Chief Cultivator by the Yiling Patriarch, crack, by misscam
And not forgetting the still unforgettable Trapped:
Every Spark a Conflagration, Jack/Zhao Zi, by skuldchan
Also, is anyone writing Trapped for Yuletide? Because I went to nominate it.
