Do you think people like me can find eternal love?

LOVE IN THE BIG CITY (2024)

[saetiate]

sae is definitely someone who loves you more and more through every stage of your relationship. he loves you even more when you’re engaged than when you were dating, he loves being married to you and growing old with you. he loves watching you grow as a person. watching smile lines and starlight grey hair settle into your image, sees it as proof that he made you feel happy and loved. loves the thought of knowing he was there before and after it

it’s such a beautiful and honestly rare thing to have someone who’s love only grows for you with every milestone and who feels like knows everything about you by heart whilst simultaneously feeling like he’s rediscovering you over and over again.

Alien hand syndrome (AHS) or Dr. Strangelove syndrome is a category of conditions in which a person experiences their limbs acting seemingly on their own, without conscious control over the actions[...]The affected person may sometimes reach for objects and manipulate them without wanting to do so, even to the point of having to use the controllable hand to restrain the alien hand. Alien hand syndrome is best documented in cases where a person has had the two hemispheres of their brain surgically separated [...]It also occurs in some cases after brain surgery[...]Other areas of the brain that are associated with alien hand syndrome are the frontal, occipital, and parietal lobes.

experimented a bit with digital painting/lineless art for this! what if after having the metal plate installed, ford got a bout of this and was terrified that the surgery backfired and trapped a little piece of bill in him forever? :D

For the theme Seasons for @atlararepairmonth ~!

I got a request maybe a week or 2 ago from an anon; and usually I don't do requests, but...anon got me real good AHAHA.

I decided to draw something a bit mmm melodramatic? Sort of a 'please don't go!' vibe. I also wanted it to be very shoujo-y (ofc). Also, Songko really has a village girl x (ex/secret-prince) ronin vibe to it that I ADORE, why did I sleep on this for so long!?T.T

Also anon, so sorry I deleted your message by accident!!T^T So I hope you find this!!;3; Also, this isn't super great since it was just a doodle really, but I thank you for the request, as I had a lot of fun!^w^

Shen Wei senses Zhao Yunlan’s inhale before he hears his sigh, before he feels Zhao Yunlan move, and Shen Wei silently shifts his leg away as Zhao Yunlan stretches forward to pick up another case file. If Zhao Yunlan looks over at him, Shen Wei keeps his gaze trained on the file in his hands and doesn’t see it. “Cause of death records,” Zhao Yunlan says as he flips the case file open, the same way he’d said acid composition notes for the last one, and trident wound autopsies for the one before that. Shen Wei hears him tuck his lollipop into his cheek, the click of it against his teeth. “It’s from ten years ago, I’m surprised it was allowed to lapse. My old man would’ve still been in charge then.” Or: A week after Shen Wei restores Zhao Yunlan's eyesight, the SID uncovers a new lead to an old case.

my commentary under the cut :3

this fic is a remix of amedia's wonderful fic The Netwielder for the 2025 Guardian 520 Day Exchange. thank you, amedia, for letting me run wild with your fic -- it was such an enriching opportunity to work on this fic! it really led me to think through things in ways i've never done before, and i was pleasantly surprised by where i ended up.

as to where that is .... this is a fic that is mostly worldbuilding wrapped up in a mystery. i wanted to explore dixing culture, and how dark and light energy interact in the world, given what canon says about shen wei cycling his internal energy after the knife scene. it ... got a bit out of hand ahaha, but i like a lot of what came up, and it'll be interesting to dig further into in other fic.

please expect: weilan tension, chuguo softness, shen wei trying to sacrifice himself (as usual), and zhao yunlan trying to stop him (also as usual). and of course, because i'm me, a well-intentioned antagonist and plot-relevant paperwork. there's also a pretty cool timestop scene, because i can never help myself when it comes to shen wei's powers :3

A notification flashes across phone screens everywhere throughout NRC. The radio podcast, NRTea has gone live once more!

"Hello, hello, dearest listeners! And welcome to another episode of NRTea, the hottest tea party on sages island! I'm your host, Chamomile-"

"and I am Earl Grey"

"And oh boy do we have a story for you today! Take it away, Earl!"

"...alright.

As of late, there have been brambles spiralling up and encasing parts of the Ramshackle dorm. The brambles themselves seem generally harmless, as do the roses that fall from them, but if you prick yourself on the thorns, it would be quite an unpleasant sensation, so I'd suggest exercising some extra caution when visiting for now."

"Yup, yup! If you've got a friend or two living in the dorm out there, go check on em and make sure they're doing okay!"

"I know I myself must check in on my dearest companions soon..."

"Well that's it for now! We've been your hosts, Chamomile-"

"And Earl Grey,"

"And this has been NRTea. Stay thirsty, dear listeners!"

The stream continues on for a bit before cutting off, though.

"Hey... James?"

"Yes?"

"Y'know how Yuna has been locking up lately and stuff? Says she's been super sick recently."

"Mhm... It's quite concerning, if I am being honest. I haven't seen her for a while..."

"...I wonder if Yuna is alright. I hope she doesn't get hurt with all those brambles."

"...Me too, Lewis. Me too."

(✨YUNA OVERBLOT STUFF YAHOO!!!

-✨mod, @night-raven-miscellany. Technically James and Lewis, too, but I haven't been adding them fhdjfj)

Kiyuu stared down at her phone with a frown as the podcast ended. She didn't say anything, prompting Aros to speak up from behind her.

"...Lucky you haven't been over there for a while, isn't it?"

He spoke, giving Kiyuu a faint smile, leaning in just a little closer while dabbing a makeup brush into the eyeshadow pallette in his hand, before applying it, making slightly quicker movements than previously, already being able to tell what Kiyuu was thinking.

They both knew the signs by now from even just a glance. With the context the podcast had accidentlly given... Something bad was about to happen. That much they could tell.

His expression morphed back into a frown as he watched how Kiyuu's face seemed to go through a cycle of conflicting emotions, confirming what he'd thought.

"...Yuuto's close by, though. And he definitely won't hesitate to head straight for Ramshackle once he suspects something's happening..."

There was more silence, only disturbed by the quiet sounds of rummaging through makeup and supplies from Aros. They'd been in the middle of testing out some makeup samples Aros had been sent for a promotion when they'd decided to tune into NRTea's podcast in the background.

"...Would you like me to quickly finish applying your makeup before we go?"

Aros offered, picking up an eyelash curler, and tilting Kiyuu's head up gently with his pointer finger.

"But-"

"Ah- Let me finish now. If you're worried about time, I'll change up our plan, do something quick, yet effective, instead. Don't stress out more than you need to. It won't do you any good."

"Mmh... Okay then. I'd- really like that. Thank you..."

Kiyuu conceeded softly, a silent exchange of gratitude from Kiyuu between them, Aros nodding in response, expression neutral as he continued.

"...Heh. I bet he's real excited right now. I worry a lot for him when he does this sort of thing, y'know. Just doing whatever he wants with no consideration to anyone else's feelings..."

Kiyuu mumbled, an underlying bitterness that she never quite felt wholeheartedly in her voice.

"That's just how he is. The only thing for us to do now is help them both out, hm?"

"Ah- right..! Yuna, I heard their name was, I think... I hope they're alright..."

"As do I."

Aro's commented as he stood, reaching instinctively for his hand mirror, handing it to Kiyuu as he hastily, yet still neatly, tidied up his supplies.

"Satisfactory?"

He asked, turning his head around to gauge Kiyuu's opinion.

"Yeah! More than, for sure."

Kiyuu agreed, handing back the mirror. She felt a little better now, the familiar feeling of her makeup calming her nerves ever so slightly.

After a few short moments she stood, hastily reaching to fix up her hair into a more practical fashion.

"Okay! Okay. Let's go! We shouldn't waste anymore time."

She announced, projecting bounds more confidence than she actually felt.

"Yes, let's. Perhaps we'll even arrive before anything too disastrous occurs on either party's end..."

Aros responded. Though somehow, they both doubted that much of a miricle would happen for them today...

My commissions are open!!

I really hate pulling out the labels card for help; but if you could help at least spread this so two transwomen and a disabled transmasc (me) can afford rent, food, gas, and to pay off whatever extra nonsense a few ER visits this past 1-2months has stacked up because one of our insurances is acting dumb. One is between jobs, another is trying to find a better paying one that will give her more hours, and I'm too disabled to work. We're doing all we can, but we need a bit of help.

So let me do art for you about it! You can find all my information on my carrd and here on my tumblr . You can find all my art and more examples on my blog or on my instagram . If you have any questions, please feel free to email me and I'll get back to you asap.

Thank you so much <3!!

pov you're on sae's line messages with me

p.s. i might srb this but please don't reblog!! i am open to replies but i'm feeling a little shy about this ahaha <3 thank you for your kind understanding!

[uhohbestie]

Can I just say yall both are so freaking talented with writing storytelling and art what yall do is actually crazy this was the longest fic/story that I have ever read and it’s honestly the best one to I want to put it on my shelf and hold it because the fact yall came up with this whole story honestly breaks whatever’s left of my brain not once while reading TAMN did I get bored or uninterested in the plot sure for the first half of the book I wanted to deck Grian in the face probably because I understand how he feels more than I like AND I could picture everything they weren’t just floating in white space talking I will literally read anything yall write because I understand the story perfectly (that’s desert duo ofc)

and your art skills are amazing like the backgrounds are so freaking good and shaped like I don’t know how you do it I have literally never seen anyone draw backgrounds that good other than Bob Ross the cabin is literally my wallpaper since it’s so nice to look at

anyway keep being awesome <333

AWW, this is so kind of you to say! <3 <3 We're so glad you enjoyed our fic! It's especially nice to hear that it felt like the characters were actually in places, and not just a void. That's something we both put a lot of effort and time into, so we're glad it paid off!!

Also SO glad you like the art as well! Drawing TAMN banners was a great way to force me into draw backgrounds, and I'm so glad it paid off!!

Thank you for this kind message! We really appreciate it! <3 <3 -🔒
