#I am a Good Girl... (musings)

Had to fight god to go to sleep at a time that will allow me enough sleep for this possibly-a-date rather than manic cleaning the kitchen or smth

I love the rhyming on ttpd. can only think of two examples currently but I know there’s more.

If "Lonely is the Muse" fits your OC, they may be entitled to beat your ass! 😀

mmm... victoria taking after her father and wanting to grow up into a gentleman rather than a lady versus the expectation that she becomes the woman of the house after her mother dies..... something in that i think

Guess who's getting ✨comfortable✨ with their artstyle agaaaain

So, all usual concerns and subject matter aside, I think there is one very important aspect of Eöl's character that I rarely ever see touched upon, and that is the fact that he is, objectively, a horse girl.

Like -- my good sir, you live in the middle of what is, by all accounts, a dense, dark, magical forest with all sorts of winding paths and the tallest trees in Beleriand; it sounds like an absolute nightmare for any kind of hoofed quadruped to navigate (except perhaps deer and goats, but they are insane and therefore outliers, so they don't count). What do you need all these horses for??

He never really leaves home, other than occasionally to visit the dwarves; I can understand having maybe two or three horses, for travel and as backups. And yet, he has enough of them that -- with Maeglin on one, Aredhel on another, and himself on a third -- he can not only change his out for a fresh horse, but also have his pick of "the swiftest that he had," implying that, even with those three absences, there is still a sizeable group remaining at home in Nan Elmoth.

Clearly, there is but one answer here and, personally? As a horse girl myself? It explains so much about him.

Honestly im still thinking about that little pwrfectionism doodle bc im realizing i avoid writing (specifically fanfics) through excuses. I mean, i do this with art too but with writing it's more glaringly obvious. Either "oh i need to replay this entire game franchise in order to get the characters properly" or "oh the base concept for this fic is too similar to this diff fic i should ask the author before beginning (wont ask bc that'd be cringe)" or "oh i cant play this game by myself and i'd miss details here and there better wait 285929 years until i can experience it properly". Like i said this happens to me with visual arts too (and with reading and... tbh with pretty much anything i need to do) but seeing it happen in front of you is an experience

To my fellow authors,

You know when you're in first draft writing, and you're basically just word vomiting it all out, and it sucks SO BAD, and you can't find your usual groove, but you keep persisting and going back but NOTHING is coming to you in editing to make it better?

I'm there, friends. I have all the ingredients, I know where I'm going with it, but yeah. In my mind, my WIP looks like this -

HAHAHAHA!

I'm not even in a rush to share either, but yeah. It's making me twitchy that there appears to be something missing, and I can't for the life of me figure out what it is. Le sigh.

Rio is supposed to be a good muse, but he's just sitting up in the creative space in my brain shrugging and looking at me like, "Bitch, you gotta write it. I'm just here 'cuz I'm here."

THE AUDACITY.

[gu6chan]

99% just my autism speaking here but something ive been noticing lately that im sorta kinda 😶 about is when ppl are like "I think you'll like this" but not bc they ACTUALLY think you'll like it, rather they just got into it and want you to also get into it so "I think you'll like this" is a nice personal hook. i love chill stuff as much as any other person ofc but given i don't divulge that EVER, what makes you think my berserk reading, made in abyss watching, drakengard playing ass would like YURU CAMP????

@yukikorogashi || liked for a starter! [Blood // Water – grandson]

“Look me in my eyes,” he demanded, what could've been something soft and concerned from most anyone else coming out like the crackle of ice in too warm of water. Kaz dipped the crow's beak of his cane beneath the girl's chin, steering her wide and youthful gaze up to his. He surveyed her face in a breath of silence: the indomitable spirit she exuded, the convincing front. His head tilted, next words lower and quieter than before: “Tell me everything's not fine.”

Oh hello extreme insecurity, unwelcome back

❄️ @ta1is Continued from Here! 💕 ❄️

THE POOR BRO really did seem like a FISH OUT OF WATER, as he tried to navigate his way through the UNDERCITY. And of course, making it this obvious that he wasn't from around here hardly made his situation any better. Especially when there were just so many folks that would take advantage of one such as him.

Not all of them, mind you. But even one was certainly more than enough to make one wary.

And so, after noticing him passing through these streets for the umpteenth time, and just barely dodging the attention of one too many pushy vendors, Itsuki had decided to step in. Offering up to him some much needed aid, so that he may finally get to where he had wanted to be hours ago.

And well, count yourself lucky, bro. That she had come along before any of the other kids did.

Though, even she had to remind herself after awhile that he could not traverse through this area as easily as she herself did. For besides her own familiarity to this place when compared to this visitor from up above, there were just some shortcuts that were just too low or narrow for him to follow through after her. And so, when he had begun to voice his doubts and uncertainty about all of this, Itsuki would simply offer an apologetic little grin and a rub to the back of her neck.

"Aww don't worry, bro! We're almost there!" She would assure in a loud whisper, with a single hand rather pointlessly lifted to the side of her face then. "There's a faster way, but ah think stayin' on the streets' safer, bro. 'Specially if ya ain't one fer jumpin' across roofs~"
