He was deep into the work, so he didn’t notice the door of his workshop opening, nor he heard measured steps that came closer. But, he felt the presence of another person at the moment any noise has stopped. Engineer looked up at the clock. It was 1:24 am. It's not an unusual time for him to be awake and the person behind him also knows it. That’s probably why he still doesn’t hear anything against it, Engie only feels it, this dislike for his schedule. Quietly Hardhat mumbled about hypocrisy. Usually, he would have been convinced to let go of work already, but the urgency of the things is insane - they both know it.
- You know I need to finish this, doc
The silence has been enough of an answer. Engineer has already prepared himself for a possible argument. But it still wasn't there. He continued working, seeking for any sign of malfunction — he spent hours on this and still ended up empty-handed. Soon after, Medic took another chair from nearby and sat on it, their knees touching. Then there was a sign, the first thing he actually heard this night from a man. Engineer felt crippling tiredness in that voice.
- Well, at least I can help.
Medic actually couldn’t, another thing they both knew perfectly. But Engineer ignored it and let him stay anyway. Even if he knew that was probably not a good thing for doc to stay awake. Medic was stubborn, when wanted. And after all, just a quiet presence of this man was enough to feel lighter. Though, he knew this calm silence would not last long and soon Medic would start rambling about everything he’d done today and Engineer would be calm enough to listen just like he always does. Soon Dell would get more relaxed and start telling what he was doing, and then listen Ludwig giving honest opinion on it. But it will happen later. Right now, all that is important is a calm night, respawn upgrade that needs to be done by the morning and quiet existing of the man, whose presence was as chaotic, as calming when needed.
I hate it when people try to make small talk with me by asking what shows I'm watching because I really don't watch any shows. I'm just like "I actually spend hours watching 2+ hour long video essays on Youtube."
Idk how to explain to people that my dumb ADHD brain hisses at the prospect of investing in new series but loves Youtube videos I can easily zone out to or stop and start.
You know this feeling when you were planning to make some simple fanfic for ~500-700 words that's built on a one damn metaphor and now you have a monstrosity with 1300+ words, that still haven't finished? Yeah, that's my usual writing style
Hello
Welcome to my page ^^
• My name is Arin, you can also call me Witold (Wi or Told, whatever) but some people just call me a strange void creature from the abyss and I absolutely don't mind this one
• My pronounces are they/them, xe/xem or ae/aer on English. If it's not English — any pronounces with gender-neutral meaning will do nicely
• I'm an angled aroace demiplatonic and also a genderfluid mess. So no queerphobes are allowed there, I don't like you.
— amatonormativity sucks btw
— also voidpunk rules 'cause "Why do you need to be human?"
• In QRP with two amazing people — @adventurous-phoenix (he's also an author of a banner) and @strangecoffeefreak
• I'm a full-time ADHD gremlin and really committed to it. Bear with it. I also have mental health problems, so no ableism here, I'm too tired to deal with your shit.
• Multifandom, but generally jump from hyperfixation to hyperfixation. I also write fanfiction, but it's more like "Burst scribbling", than writing
— right now my hyperfixations are a crazy combo of TF2 and Mo Dao Zu Shi
— BTW, I'm a science party enjoyer. Also, I'm a 3zun enjoyer. If it's not your cup of tea, you better move out
• Besides TF2, I also play Genshin Impact and Honkai Impact. So if you want to scream about another sexualised woman character with me — you're welcome.
• BTW, don't hesitate to interact in any way! You can also ask absolutely random questions, I just like to talk and share my opinion on things.
• I may use a lot of passive aggression, sarcasm and sometimes dark humour. I usually mark them, so no one would get confused, but all in all, it's the way I'm used to communicate with world and I mostly use it as a coping mechanism.
• The only real TW I have is transphobia and dogs. I have a really bad case of cynophobia here and even if I don't get terrified of photos of dogs, it's still uncomfortable
My DNI criterias are basic, besides aforementioned ones, I also will not stand any racism, imperialism, misogyny and other hate views here. If you're a such person, well, sucks to be you.
Btw, even though I don't usually block people, I still have a right to do it without explanation. And you either move on from it, or... Do anything else, I don't care
— TERFs and right wingers are getting a special invitation to go fuck themselves
That's probably all, but I'll definitely add some things in a future
See ya
reblog if you write fanfic and you would die of happiness and then become instant best friends with anyone who crashed into your DMs to talk about your fics
I feel some heavy pressure here... Welp, I guess that was the point ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
YOUUUUUUUU—
Hehe (つ✧ω✧)つ✨
Your idea about Medic getting bridal carried by Engineer is super cute tbh
Obsessed with this photo. How the fuck did he end up everywhere except ithaca
Engie having an existential crisis - another little illustration related to the fic I wrote recently bc I can see it very vividly in mind's eye
Arin •|• They/them •|• aroace voidpunk enjoyer •|• Learn too many languages to be alive •|• Eng/ru/fr/pl/fin btw •|• Have a strange kinship with insane characters
