one lost soul, without a fishbowl

@1lostsoul0fishbowl / 1lostsoul0fishbowl.tumblr.com

call me losty. she/her. over 40. weirdo. spoonie. cat lover. writer of happy endings and extra fluffy found-family fics about stranger things. adorer of rarepairs, especially stali & greatmage 💞

Hi! I’m Losty. 👋

My username is a play on the line “we’re just two lost souls swimming in a fishbowl, year after year” from Pink Floyd’s Wish You Were Here. Chronic illness has kept me isolated and lonely and that somehow seemed to express the feeling.

My Writing

Currently on hiatus from writing fluff for Stranger Things (two years and counting on ao3!), all my completed fics are linked below. Most works are set in a post-s4 Vecna-was-defeated universe, but there are a couple experiments with different no-upside down AUs too.

Thank youu @ameliafromafairytale for the tag!!

Mine are mostly screenshots…

Day 5!

Like I said, me and tropes have a… complicated relationship. But based on my ao3 tags, I'd have to go with fluff.

I don't like making my characters suffer! I want them to be happy and flourishing and well hydrated and enjoying their lives! I'm sorry, but it's true. So I will wrap my beloveds in cozy blankets and give them delicious tea and let them have the best time.

And none of you can stop me!

Ahem. Sorry.

I feel the same way! Everybody gets love and comfort and care and especially a happy ending in the Lostsoul Universe!

Hi everyone! Welcome to Hellcheer Anniversary Week!

This year is a little different - we’re doing a Bingo event! Complete rows, columns, or diagonals to achieve Bingo, or go for a full blackout!

We’re excited to not only read everyone’s new fics and drabbles, but also see the amazing gifs, art, and moodboards. Sign ups and more info are coming soon, as well as something new and exciting for year three - community prompting! Submit all of your old faves, as well as anything new and out of the box - we need them all.

We’ll be releasing a FAQ and a mod post shortly, so keep your eyes out for that! If you have any questions that aren’t answered in the FAQ, send us a message on Tumblr or via email - new for this year, we can be reached at hellcheeranniversaryweek@gmail.com.

As always, this event is very low pressure - contribute as much or as little as you like. We're just happy to have the community take part - whether it's write, draw, gif, chat, or brainstorm - to show that we're still here after all this time.

sometimes i like a ship not because of inherent chemistry between the characters, but because of the character development the ship implies. for X and Y to get together in a believable and meaningful way, X would have to go through this character arc and Y would have to go through that character arc. I'm interested in the narrative that'd lead up to them getting together, and so I'm interested in the ship

Eugh so much of this. Especially when either that development never gets to happen, or happens off screen in a way we only get to see glimpses of. So much potential, so much fun space to play around with and write in and explore. Le sigh 😍

Cozy drink quiz

i was tagged by @captainstressed to take this quiz and find out what cozy drink i am! thanks for the tag, this was fun!! (and long time no chat, how are you doing!)

Decided to take a page out of starry's book. This is so cute! It's cold and miserable outside so the idea of being a warm drink is super cosy.

Even though it's starting to be spring here, I always enjoy a nice cozy beverage! Thanks, @deadheaddaisy!

Accurate! 😁

Tagging @1lostsoul0fishbowl, @pajamasecrets, @indignantlemur, @shadowinthefire, @leliesbleu, and anybody else who'd like to play!

Thanks for the tag @more-better-words - hot chocolate is perfect even when the weather is warm 🥰

This is so beautiful I actually cried a little bit!

Tagging: @ladyfluff @krakoansam @chornayadrakoshig @into-the-very-fires-of-mordor and anyone else who wants to play! ☕️
