Honest Advice On Relationships And Life In...
Honest Advice On Relationships And Life In General By This Balloon Artist"I try to make commentary about, or poke fun at, social media. The balloons were a social media trope often used in bridal showers and gender reveals, so they were a natural progression of that idea. I love the contrast of profound, funny, or challenging quotes spelled in silly balloons. And since another common cliche is endless selfies, I tend to put myself in most of the photos. They often make people cringe, but the cringe is the point,“ Michael told Bored Panda.
I love these so much. Needed to hear more than one of them.

Ahh! So sorry to do another of these posts so soon, but the timing just worked out that way!! If you’re newer to following my tumblr, every time a story reaches 10,000 hits or another 10,000 hit milestone after that, I just make a post to say thank you! So here we are, another story just attained its first 10,000 hits, which is so cool!! Set in Stone is the sequel to, honestly, one of my favourite stories of my own, Bridging the Ravine. Many people have said that BtR has been one of the few post-series 4 stories they can stomach at all. It’s also my first (of two, so far!) fake-couple-for-a-case stories: Sherlock and John are sent to a fancy retreat/therapy centre for same-sex male couples to investigate some mysterious goings-on, and while they’re pretending to get therapy, they end up actually getting some. These two stories boast by far the most original characters I’ve ever written into a single fic - over twenty named OCs, but the main ones are the other couples in their group therapy group and the counselling staff. There’s a LOT of good food in both stories, plus it’s set in the Malvern Hills and there’s a spa and yeah. I had a great time writing these two some much-needed therapy after series 4!!! The sequel, this story, sees them return to Ravine Valley for some more therapy, and also follows up with several of the other characters from their group. Thank you to all of you who have read either one of these!! Set in Stone is the 59th of my current 87 stories to get to 10,000 hits - thank you for every last one of them!!

Hey hey, look at this!! My silly story In Plain Sight just reached 40,000 hits today! This is only the 8th of my current 87 fics to have been read (or at least clicked on!) this many times, so this is very exciting! :))) This is a light-hearted 5+1 set-up, the premise of which is “five times Sherlock and John have sex and don’t talk about it and one time when they do”, essentially. Except, like, they almost all happen in highly public places, hence the title. This story has a sequel called Inappropriate, which involves even more risky scenarios and someone once chewed me out for how inappropriate it was. I was just like… um… *points at the title*. Anyway, thanks for reading this one so much!!
