You Can't Try Bras On In Front Of James; He'll Find It Very Confusing.

I've just finished the Silent Hill 2 remake!

'James, you can't keep doing this!' I exclaimed, as James prepared to jump down yet another seemingly bottomless pit. I paused for a moment to consider. 'Although he might be thinking the same thing about me. I always have to press the jump button twice before he actually jumps, as if he's going "are you sure it's a good idea to jump into this pit?"'


Notes on the Silent Hill 2 remake, up to the end of the game. )


The ending stats screen gave me two stats that combined alarmingly: I'd been playing for 19h4m, or 1144m. I'd checked the map 1,131 times. I can't believe I checked the map almost exactly one time per minute.

That's a lie. I can absolutely believe that. I'm frankly surprised it wasn't more; I love checking the map in Silent Hill. It makes me feel so much more secure when I know where I am and where I'm going!

I just darted into the sitting room, where Tem was hanging out, and picked up the Silent Hill 2 remake's box to bring back to my bookshelf.

Tem: Going off to be alone?
Riona: I was just thinking that it does look like that. 'James and I are going to go upstairs now.'
Tem: 'James and I are just going up to my bedroom.'

What a fantastic remake! It's so clearly built on a deep love for the original game, and that really pays off. I absolutely loved it. It's been so good to spend time with James Sunderland, one of my most longstanding and unfortunate blorbos.

Happy Holidays

Hiya, this is my first wishlist. Wishing everyone a happy holiday season from Australia!


1. I collect comic books and really enjoy comics from the 80's and 90's. I prefer DC (Superman or Superman adjacent). If you happen to have any old comics laying around just collecting dust I would love to take them off your hands. They don't have to be in mint condition. Even if they are falling apart as long as they are readable I would love them.

2. As mentioned above , I am a Superman and fan and love the Lois/Clark pairing. I would enjoy any fanfic recs, specifically if it's fluffy. My favourite Superman fandoms are My Adventures with Superman, Lois & Clark & the James Gunn Superman movie. I am not a Smallville fan (I really tried, promise). 

3. I'm looking to make more connections and friends around the world and would love some penpals/email/discord friends. I am neurodivergent and physically disabled. Some of my interests are Superman (duh), Taylor Swift, my dog & animals in general. I enjoy writing fanfic. I would love to write/chat to anyone. You can email me at 90stvfangirl @ gmail . com for my address or other details. Or DM me!

4. TV show recommendations. I like most genres, but favour horror/sci-fi. Some of my favourite shows ever are Buffy, Lois & Clark, Bones, X Files (I love to ship...), Evil. So anything with those vibes. I'm currently watching Pluribus and loving it! I also don't mind current shows like Grey's, 9-1-1, SVU.

5. Comic book recommendations. I bought myself a Kindle Color and I'm loving reading comics on it. I have a Kindle Unlimited account (free for 3 months), so any Kindle Unlimited comic recommendations would be amazing. Some comics I enjoy besides Superman are Fables, Saga, The Walking Dead. I wouldn't mind trying Batman, but where to start?

6. My very random amazon wishlist.

7. Read and comment on my fanfic! 90sfangirl79 

8. Donate to the www.heartfoundation.org.au/ or your country’s equivalent! 

Thank you everyone! <3

Fic Rec: All Summer in a Day by Luna (True Detective: Night Country, Danvers/Navarro)

Kicking off [community profile] rec_cember with a recent femslash fic (written for [community profile] rarepairexchange 2025) that blew my socks off.

Fandom: True Detective: Night Country
Fanwork type: Fic
Pairings/Characters: Liz Danvers/Evangeline Navarro
Rating and/or Content Warnings: no archive warnings apply, implied/referenced suicide
Links: All Summer in a Day by [archiveofourown.org profile] Luna
Summary:
Liz stops sleeping.

Some nights, she's busy trying to claw her way out from under an avalanche of paperwork. Some nights, she just can't keep her eyes closed. She can put on a sleep mask or bury her face in the pillows, but she's still aware of the light glowing out there, and the absence of anyone warm in the bed next to her.

(Or: six months later, a reunion.)


Reccer's Notes: Post-canon reunion (or is it?). I loved the lyrical rhythm of the writing, and beautifully vivid descriptions of the landscape. Liz's sharp, cynical narrative voice is excellent, and I loved the thoughtfulness and depth of the characterization and the focus on their spiky, intense relationship. (And hot! It's very sexy, too.)

Vid Rec: Rise Up

Fandom: Hidden Figures
Fanwork type: vid
Pairings/Characters: Mary Jackson & Katherine Johnson & Dorothy Vaughan
Rating and/or Content Warnings: no archive warnings apply
Links: Vid: Rise Up by [archiveofourown.org profile] cosmic_llin
Summary: I promise we'll take the world to its feet

Reccer's Notes: I thought this would be a good vid to kick off my 'ladies in space recs' for [community profile] rec_cember
This is one of my favorite movies vidded to one of my favorite songs. Both are full of tenacity and hope and overcoming odds and the vid is just beautiful. And it's what got us to the moon! <333

hit me, take a deep breath.

+ Lit my Christmas incense and drank some red soda today. It's pouring down outside but it still did the trick! Hopefully there's a dry morning soon so I can get some decorations out of the shed.

+ Many thanks for the lovely comments on the Holiday Love Meme, I was coming out of a bout of stomach flu combined with my period, and the tiny bumps of kindness throughout the days was highly appreciated ♥

+ [youtube.com profile] BeautifulBooks does yearly videos on their favorite illustrated books, and is already out with their Myths & Legends and Children & Young At heart collections. If you're looking for bookish gifts this year - or just want to look at some art - might be a good one to check out.

Star Wars
Song for a fifth child by [archiveofourown.org profile] Deputychairman (5978 words). A glimpse into Leia's life before and after the events of Force Awakens. Hands down my favorite Leia fic I've read so far.
Her daily life doesn’t change when Han dies.

He’d been gone for years, and she was used to that. He was there on a Comm link once a week, sometimes, and other times she wouldn’t hear from him for months, but she knew he was out there.

She feels the difference anyway. Like losing a tooth, or a bone in the ear - something from deep inside. It didn’t show, but you knew it was gone.

Tamsin's Wishes

Hi everyone,

I'm Tamsin. I am a social worker and currently training to become a therapist. I live in Austria. I've been participating in this comm for years, first on lj and then here on dw and I'm looking forward to taking part again. I already have some lists bookmarked where I hope I'm able to fulfil some wishes.


Used/self-made items are lovely and very welcome.

1. Something from my amazon wish list amazon us / amazon germany

2. Poetry books - books with poems in them, books analyzing poetry, books about writing poetry

3. Chocolate - I'm not big on liquor-filled stuff and raisins, otherwise I'm up for anything. I have a giant sweet tooth. I've gotten to try some cool stuff through this community

4. Jewelry - I'm especially fond of bracelets and necklaces

5. A care package - I love fandom, books, food, owls, sloths and surprises.

6. Tell me about your favorite book reviewers - I read in a wide range of genres, in german and english. I'm on the look out for interesting, thoughtful reviewers. For example I really like Jo Walton Reads. But honestly am open to check out anyone that you enjoy and would recommend.

For my address please PM me.


As always, thank you for looking at my list! I hope you’ll have many moments of contentment, creativity and joy this holiday season. Happy Holidays!
