To the World's Greatest Boss

Anyway this is a lil post about me so you know what you're getting into. Feel free to comment here if you need anything from me!

About me: Hello, my name is Rufus and I love writing. I tend to dabble in a lot of fandoms as I go through them but some will stick longer than others. I don't always post my fics here so please do follow my ao3 if you enjoy them but I will sometimes post fics here long, long before I post them to ao3, if ever, usually because I don't like them enough to go onto my ao3 until I do. These days, I write original work the most. I love writing slow burn romances. In real life, I am a practicing Muslim and a psychologist specialising in childcare, development, and education.

Important note: I have two major triggers which I ask you to respect when interacting on my journal which are suicide and self harm. Please avoid referencing these topics here. Thank you!
In addition, discussions about personal medical health like lab tests and illnesses make me deeply uncomfortable unless they are with close friends so I generally avoid these as well. This is just to let you know why I may avoid engaging with certain posts.

What you'll find on my journal: Fics, exchange letters, the occasional blog post. I am trying to make those more frequent!

My first time! I've been an avid fan of VGC for several year, but I've always just thought of myself as a spectator. Well, last year I went to the Birmingham regional championships, intending to simply watch, but my sister convinced me to join a side event. And it was fantastic. I joined another the next day, then more at EUIC. I was still largely apathetic to Scarlet/Violet but whenever I'm playing face to face against an opponent, it's exhilarating. And so I decided that with the new season, I would give competing a proper go.

Whenever I think about summer, I always think about strawberry picking. I really love strawberry picking (and fruit picking in general), which I used to think was because I love strawberries, but lately I've come to realise that, cliche as it sounds, is actually because I just love being out in the fields with my friends and family. When I was younger, the Muslim community in Ireland used to arrange a fruit picking trip for the whole community every year, so I could rely on being able to go on a trip with my friends outside of school, or to do something with them even if we didn't go to the same school.

The British Muslim community thing is camping, by the way, which is happening as usual this year but I'm not going because ... I don't really fancy camping right now lol.

Anyway, speaking of strawberries, I used to just eat them but these days I make desserts with them, so here's a recipe for a Victoria sponge with homemade jam.

I'm replaying the game and just got to Kai's level 6 bond event and it just ... gets me every time, man. Not that I fall for his prank again or anything but everything in there is ... oh it just hits. GoA is not lacking in feels when it comes to the storyline, like I really love Kanata's bond event with Sorano, and Murasame's with Appare feels significant as well, but, well, I guess that's the reason that I went with Kai. It's because his bond events just get to me.

This was kind of a hard one. I don't seem to think in terms of goals even though I have things like daily to-do lists. Here are a few things I managed to think of:
