i’ll never get over what a funny dynamic faberry has in canon. like yes here are two girls who on the surface are narrative foils and enemies but upon closer inspection are actually incredibly similar to each other, especially when it comes to their mutual desire to escape their hometown. they hate each other’s guts and one of the girls will have the weirdest bullying habits known to man. they will preform a musical duet while longingly staring at each other the entire time. they will have a scene together on prom night that directly parallels the two other canon queer couples on the show, and during this scene one of the girls will call the other the prettiest girl she’s ever seen. one of them will protest the other’s wedding and insist that they are meant for great things in life and therefore they can’t tie themselves down by marrying someone at 18, while the bride to be refuses to go through with the marriage without the other girl there. they are both heterosexual though and are going to end up with men at the end of the show

does anyone ever notice that sasuke is always around cherry blossoms??
桜 (sakura) translates to cherry blossoms in english. this could possibly be a symbolization of sasuke and sakura’s affection for each other. we don’t see any scene where sasuke is actively thinking about or missing team 7, but i think subtle stuff like this tells us enough!!
sasuke is very emotionally closed off to say the last. he doesn’t deal with his feelings well which lead to him severing his bonds with the people he was starting to get attached to, which lead to him betraying those people. during the blank period, i think he emotionally opened up to sakura, maybe not in the best way, but still, it was good enough for sakura.
i’m pretty sure that only emotionally mature people can understand sakura and sasuke’s relationship. 😭 sasuke truly does love and care for sakura, i will die on that hill. kishimoto and the fandom hates their relationship though, so of course we don’t have any scenes of them being affections towards each other.
although, there are subtle scenes that people choose to ignore and pass off. us sasusaku lovers truly can’t blame them for ignoring those scenes though 😭, the most loving thing they’ve done towards each other on screen is a simple touch on the hand or shoulder.
even when sasuke retsuden got animated, sasusaku haters still chose to ignore it.. again, i don’t blame them. i still think it’s pretty unfair that naruhina lovers got a kiss from them and us sasusaku lovers didn’t get anything.. there were so many right moments in sasuke retsuden for them to kiss, yet it didn’t happen. tbh i’m still so confused by kishimotos writings on them, they’re one of the main couples?? and don’t get me wrong, sasuke retsuden was a good story, but it still had so much potential.
anyways sasusaku is peak yall!!
this is my first post so don’t mind the lack of creativity.. but i WILL be posting more sasusaku and try to help some of the people that understand them.

Similar idea as the other ask but what about favourite BNF scenes? I’m very curious cause I’ve reread it so many times to like study specific scenes (yes I’m a nerd and I’m on the spectrum)
oh my god i love too much of the bnf dialogue. it's gonna be fun to try and narrow it down
i know it's not exactly a subtle detail but i'm still SO in love with crowley's keysmashes being "ngk"
"don't you have a job?" (#3)
aziraphale's knee-jerk panic to decline the first time crowley calls him (#2)
it is not even SLIGHTLY underappreciated but i will never get enough of aziraphale's tenuous grasp of emojis
then when they team up for "do you have any thinking emojis?" "how about this one?" "perfect, pretend that's me for a bit" (#2)
angelofeden + serpent of eden!!!!!!! (#6)
aziraphale going from "no phones at work" to "taking long lunches to text crowley" in about 0.04 seconds (#3)
everything about crowley's voice and how feral i am aziraphale is for it
oh, here's one most people do actually miss: the fact that none of crowley's actions before "he WHAT" are intended as even vaguely romantic or simpy! yea he replies to aziraphale's messages in 10 seconds flat and wants to gift him thousands of pounds worth of art supplies, but none of that was intentional flirting. (and, tbh, it STILL isn't, even after he realises his feelings. you'll notice when it is). i just love how feral he is for their friendship 😭
lying on the bed like a couple of teenagers 🥺 (#4)
every single time newt is mentioned (#4 + #7)

“My eyes do open and I can see through them” I LOVE HER this whole conversation with marian and Agnes is so lovely and sweet “mrs Russell would be lucky to get you” and asking and giggling about the dress ☹️☹️🫶🫶🫶
i think it’s so interesting how Agnes seems much more accepting of marian and Larry than Bertha is I totally predicted it would be the other way around

THIS WEDDING IS STRESSING ME THE FUCK OUT
god Gladys looks absolutely stunning. The dress the hair the flowers the tiara the jewellery she is so beautiful. The way the decorations match her outfit!!!! this whole wedding is breathtakingly beautiful if only it wasn’t so horrible at it’s core
HE PROPOSED!!!! AND SHES MARRIED?????? Minor plot point recycled from Downton abbey 🥳
god but Gladys is so beautiful :( this wedding is so devastating
and the last scene made me feel ill
man what an episode. somehow I didn’t think that the wedding would happen so soon, or that they would actually go through with it in the end but now Gladys is off to England alone except for a man she doesn’t want to be with and her maid who will be leaving soon it’s heartbreaking

i am so upset.
here are my real-time thoughts from tua series finale, i guess:
- is gun control not a thing in this timeline? jeez
- i don’t even know where i’d get a gun lmao
- this is giving MAGA… yikes
- i love meghan so much. national treasure. AND she can sing. EGOT, please.
- lila isn’t the only one hiding stuff from her husband 👀
- diego talking about lila with a new lease on life 🥺
- awh this is very “it’s a wonderful life”
- lila’s family is fab. the spinoff we need.
- i love how many actors get to perform as other actors performing another role on this show
- the whistle !!! call him out dr. jean !!!
- THAT WAS SO UNNECESSARY
- dr. jean deserved better !!! 😭
- i love the fast food lady (featured extra). she understood the assignment.
- “it smells so nice in here!” why are me and klaus the same person but completely different?
- call back to viktor drawing the umbrella tattoo as a kid !!!
- holy shit, ben is the fly
- body horror is so cool
- oh hey! they’re seeing each other and it’s neither a wedding nor a funeral
- klaus still eating because he deserves it - just give him all the nourishment, please
- why do they always wait to tell each other the most important thing ??? one brain cell - i stg
- “not during christmas” - oh, diego. for those of us with chaotic families, it’s always on christmas
- klaus scooping up five’s empty seat is such big family/sibling energy
- “i didn’t see that one coming!” klaus, luther, and allison look just as confused as i still am
- THIS IS SO WEIRD AND RANDOM
- LITTLE GRACE NOOOO
- time travel is wild. five was right in s1 - i am not smart enough for it.
- “do you love him?” 🥺
- cronenberg would love this. i wonder how much of the virus effect is practical vs. cgi
- klaus’s clothes make a lot more sense for the final showdown since he probably borrowed from one of lila’s relatives
- luther’s borrowed clothing is a bit too luther to be believably borrowed tho
- this is my favorite van 🚐 set piece since little miss sunshine
- allison pulling the emergency brake is the ultimate mom arm 💪
- i too, like five, always end up in the subway (as a new yorker)
- oh shit, i just realized that no one probably told klaus how ben really died - ugh
- but, you know what, allison probably didn’t want to overwhelm the poor guy with more trauma so i’ll let the lack of communication slide this time
- “i can fly now! oh it hurts”
- aim for the tanks… like jaws… the… 🦈 ?
- sigh, five and diego beef is just really not necessary - i’m annoyed
- “my hand is stuck in its ass” !!!
- FIVE AND DIEGO STOP THIS NONSENSE
- WHO CARES ??? this romance is not that important, dude. you’ve been trying to save your family for decades, my guy 😭
- oh damn - is five going to find the right subway station now?
- if they all forget everything like fucking dorothy in kansas, i’m going to be so mad
- holy shit - PET CEMETARY, but like PET SEMETERY !!! you can’t bring someone back, not really… that’s the show 😭
- netflix loves their stephen king
- this is also the lesson in 11/22/63… JFK… yeah
- i could write a thesis on this rn
- we got our coffee shop AU ?!?!
- can i be “cheesecake five”?
- oh… oh no
- THE COMMISSION! THE FOUNDER! AHHHH
- no no no
- don’t make my children not exist 😭
- THIS ISN’T WHAT I SIGNED UP FOR
- i’m sobbing… out of hurt and anger, tbh
- the children/family are on the lifeboats 💔
….
….
i’m not going to be ok for a while
klaus didn’t find out how ben died ???
wouldn’t ghost ben have been able to tell him ???
they really did borrow from stephen king because the alien reginald plot was pointless (i’m looking at you, under the dome)
all in all, i’m glad i got to spend time with these characters… we could have gotten even fewer seasons based on how netflix operates. but this ending could have been written/executed so much better.
i would have even smiled if the last scene was with everyone in the void. but no. we get the original ending of the little mermaid with the marigolds instead of sea foam 😫
there were parts of it i did like - especially the cleanse - but i feel like we all deserved better…
i dedicate this post to the memory of dave, sissy, ray, and every other beautiful character who ultimately became disposable. 💔

per usual the pamrak face touch gifsets are PERFECTION 🤌🏽
*insert finding nemo “now what?” gif*
If i keep asking for you to make gifsets will that make it seem like it isn’t over yet????😭
But seriously, did you miss me popping up in your inbox this past weekend with all of my nonsensical thoughts and opinions?
I’m not even sure what’s next on the docket, everything seems to be still filming at the moment. What gl(s) are you most looking forward to?
-🤫
i'm glad you enjoyed them, i for one, felt even more single going through all of their lovey dovey/supportive scenes again (but it was great, pamrak are so goals fr).
i'm fully planning on rewatching us in like a month or so just so i can watch my girls be lovely again but also bc i'm the type of rewatches shows i like all the time, so feel free to hit me with ideas if it pleases you.
listen, if there's something i enjoy is talking nonsense for paragraphs and then feeling self conscious about it later and it happens every time! you know that meme of the introvert having a great time chatting in a party just to get home and start panicking "why did i say that?" and and their comment was like "the weather is nice". that's me.
but you're right everything seems to be filming atm which is sad. i'm obviously looking forward to both gmm series that are planned for this year. whale store xoxo looks exactly like the type of show i'll have so much fun with bc it looks low stakes, but also a bit dramatic and has cats and bikes. june also said that they will start airing in june (haha) around the time of the blushing blossom fanfest, so i hope that's true and it doesn't get postponed like 23.5 was.
Tumblr media
girls rule, i don't even need to say it right? girls doing questionable things and playing with each other's feelings like playdoh? sign me up. i hope it'll be sexy and hot and everything jojo has done in bls tbh. i need them to be toxic and red flags and i'll have so much fun with it.
Tumblr media
i'm obviously super looking forward to clairebelle. they did their first script reading back on march 17th, and i'm not sure how far along on production they are but soon! at least it doesn't look like we'll lose this one like we did the last case and let's kick this love.
Tumblr media
queendom also looks like it'll be a lot of fun. i, for one, grew up with the greatest swapping bodies movie, if i were you (2006), and this show seems to be up my alley as well. it looks funny, silly and houng and p.amp look like they can hold themselves up very well if the pilot is anything to go by. i'm excited (also, the secondary couple has older women - they are in their early 30's, so you know what i mean, older in gl perspective - and their dynamic also looks delicious).
Tumblr media
only you because it's lingorm and even though the secret of us and i had our problems, lingorm's chemistry was very very nice to see. my one problem with only you though is that it looks very reminiscent of the dynamic they had as ladaearn (as in celebrity bubbly orm character and more of a normal job stoic ling character. i would have loved to see them switch dynamics, ngl). they are already filming this one and there are a many many tears as we expected from lingorm. i know they'll deliver.
Tumblr media
harmony secret, for lmsy. like the secret of us, i had my issues with affair, but lmsy's chemistry is so very good. i'd say that they might be second to emibonnie in terms of chemistry for me, and they do kiss very pretty. also, harmony secret will give us hot rich and powerful couple dynamics, i'll be amazing to see.
Tumblr media
last but not least, from the ones i could think from the top of my head at least, love design because i'm so looking forward to seeing jane falling in love with another woman. i don't really care about the plot much, but ✨jane✨.

hello !! i was the one who said to lmk if you wanted an in depth review so here i am !!
first of all, i really really love your writing. this is probably the first time i’ve come across your work and i was really amazed. i’m all for toxic relationships and dubcon and i really think you captured it so well. to be honest, i don’t really have negative remarks other than the fact that it’s really obvious to the readers but not to the ‘reader��� and also the fact that i was actually imagining life sized dolls at first 😭 but mostly it’s fine. i had many many feelings during reading this 🙂‍↕️ cause i kind of understand reader where it’s obviously a toxic and kind of odd relationship but in a way where you still want to stay and you still want to be obsessed over by someone you yourself are obsessed with. it’s also kind of sad cause the reader represents being perfect and can never lessen from being perfect after finally becoming a doll and being retained as perfect. i kind of get wanting to be obsessed over to the breaking point of being fine being destroyed. she knows he wants to destroy her but she wants him to destroy her. i really loved the small details about the missing girls. honestly though, maybe this is from my perspective but i like to think that deep down, the reader knew what was going on. she knew that there was probably something fishy. and she knew that these dolls were trying to tell her something more than she could understand on the surface,, but she was mostly in denial and didn’t want to accept it at all. so her mind tried to not even consider that an option. because sunghoon is so great and so perfect, why would he ever do that? he’s just busy at work and busy making his normal dolls? reading this was really like a short film. when i read/watch horror or thriller, i always have to pause because i get scared and this story made me really scared tbh 😭,, but it was really entertaining too. i said this before to someone else, but mostly i end up finding these fics cause i’m horny and want smut 💔 but damn it was crazy… and this isn’t even about the smut parts it’s about everything else. i think the build up and background and obsession really contributed to the smut and really made me feel a certain way/pos,, im not trying to glaze you or hype you up too much, but really it was really good… ugh he’s so toxic but i love it i love obsessive men 💜 lowk i’m also reading some of your other posts and reviews and the parts and elements of your writing is nawt too much and is in fact really well written 🙂‍↕️ the tension is conveyed really well where i get scared but it keeps me on my toes waiting for what happens next,, and if reader would get caught or not or if she’ll delve in and try to explore more. i almost hoped for a good end, but even so the ending was good and made sense. sighh this was really long and not really proofread so i hope you don’t mind 💔 i will be in touch with your next works (although don’t feel pressured). actually i just scrolled up and saw how long it is,, my bad 😭it really is good though (also i loved the smut 🙂‍↕️ and would be very happy with a prequel and also i think with how insane reader is it probably makes sense too if she just saw him with such rose tinted glasses and perfection to not even think about him being odd)
omg omg don’t even worry about the length hehe i LOVE long reviews like this and hearing what everyone thought when reading!!! and i like reading everyone’s theories and everything too!! also, i’ll take all the hype and glazing i can get lmaoo😭
it being obvious to the people reading but not quite the mc was intentional!!! like you said a little farther down how you thought deep that she knew there was something off, she did!! i tried to show this in a few subtle and not so subtle ways such as: in the very first scene when she’s making the eggs and hears what the reporter says on the tv, she drops the egg shell and it cracks, this was the first hint that like those rose-tinted glasses are coming off. and when she sees the missing girls and how they look like her and the smoke alarm goes off, that’s the second clue!!! i tried to have the smoke alarm represent how like the alarms in her head are finally sounding off. then it’s the moving dolls and the dollhouse scenes and everything until she finally sees how he cut up and sewn together those missing girls to try and make a human doll of her! as she said, she had all the puzzle pieces, but she just refused to see the full picture until it was too late.
and it is really sad that even in the end she literally couldnt escape that perfectionism… i know a lot of people wanted a more happier ending, but the whole theme of the dollmaker was about perfectionism, especially towards women, and how it’s something you can rarely escape. like not to go too deep with it since it’s fanfic lmao,,, but in the circumstances the mc was in and how perfectionism is literally embedded and ingrained into every fiber of her being, there was no escape for her. especially since once she did start to feel disgusted with perfectionism, it was only tied to when sunghoon was away more and more and she contributed that to him being away instead of her breaking free of this obsession with image he instilled onto her!! and when she was finally started to see that maybe it’s his fault, she shoved that down and followed him into the darkness anyways.
eeeeeee!!! everytime tells me how well the build-up and tension was i literally get so smiley because i truly thought that i didn’t write that that well… but to hear how my writing was actually scaring people and keeping them at the edge of their seats really means a lot to me!!! ♡♡ and i’m happy that that in turn made the smut better too and that my intentions for it came across well!! at first i was worried that it was wayyy too much plot but then i was like well i can’t just throw everyone into this crazy ass smut so it had to be so plot-heavy anyways heh,, also everyone saying how well written it is and how you all love my writing??? sobbing, screaming, crying, thank you so so much ilyy ๐·°(৹˃̵﹏˂̵৹)°·๐ ♡♡♡
THANK YOU SO SO MUCH FOR READING A LEAVING SUCH A DETAILED REVIEW!!!!! my heart is literally soaring right now you don’t understand ^^ i’m so happy that you liked it especially enough to let me know all your in-depth thoughts about it! hehe i hope you do stick around for my other works, i’ll be so happy to hear your reviews again!!! so don’t hesitate or shy away from leaving more in the future if you do!! hehe i love love love when people let me know these sort of things!!! ♡♡

Tbh, I never bought the realism” or “accuracy” argument. The Game of Thrones writers claimed that the explicit rape/sex scenes scenes were there for “realism” but if they were truly concerned with realism they would’ve shown women with body hair. 
In an interview, Sydney, the actress who plays Cassie, said she was supposed to have more sex scenes but turned some of them down (she was trying to assure the viewers that she doesn’t do nude scenes unless she feels it’s necessary) . That’s just crazy to me, her character is already objectified so much and the network/producers wanted there to be even more nudity. I’m not really surprised though as this is HBO and their whole thing is gratuitous nudity.
When I watch, I wonder, who the show is for, and what message they’re trying to get across. The show is about teens but it’s for ages 18+. Teens can’t even watch a show that claims to represent their experiences (though I know for a fact that many teens watch the show). So either the show runners intended to appeal to a younger audience (teens) or they wanted adults to watch a show about teens being sexualized. Either way it’s problematic.
I also find almost all of the characters on Euphoria unlikable, and have a hard time rooting for them despite their sad backstories. I know people loved Maddy back in S1 but she acted like a typical mean girl, there weren’t many layers to her character. Unlike Alexa who plays Maddy, Zendaya is a good actress, and her character seems to be the most developed, yet I still find it hard to root for Rue. Why did she even become a drug dealer? Her motivations are unclear. One of my biggest problems with the show is that relies too much on telling instead of showing. The narrations and voice overs are tiresome. This is unrelated, but how can anyone take Astray seriously? He reminds me of Carl from Shameless.
As far as Drake goes, the man has a history of dating underage girls. He texted Millie Bobby Brown, the actress from Stranger Things, “I miss you” and gave her “boy advice” when she was about 14/15 (typical grooming behavior). There is a YouTube video of him kissing and hugging an underage fabulous on stage https://youtu.be/Fp5b9dW1nrA
Again, I had this in my inbox for two years so not sure what this is responding to but I agree. Yes, it's realistic that teens have sex and take showers naked, that doesn't mean we have to see it in a very detailed graphic way. Guess what teens also go to the toilet so if these directors were so concerned with "realism" they would also show that lol. And these characters should not be teens I agree 100%. Like was it so hard to make them 19-20? Would it change the story THAT much? The only thing it would change is that it wouldn't be so shocking anymore and shock value is all this show is running on. I didn't even know the thing about Drake but that's gross omg, it makes the whole thing even ickier.
Don't insult my boy Carl 😭 at least he has a personality.

Fucking character limit didn't let me write you my bible hahaha so if you're ok with this, i wrote you something in this doc in drive (change the x's in docxgooglexcom pls): (docsxgooglexcom/document/d/16pos0YwhMHJEh7jaPZhqqyh7bsQJz_dHJdMbN84_rl4/edit?usp=sharing) Thanks for everything in IAL, Mar!!
Omg, babe, tysm for your words 😭, seriously. Don’t apologize for writing sm bc I literally love long comments; it never annoys me. I never get tired of them. To know people feel this strongly about my story literally never fails to make me feel so fulfilled - like I’m doing something right in life, somehow
I like to give lengthy replies to long comments, so I hope you don’t mind either…
- I’m happy to hear my story has motivated you to write as well. Definitely do it! I had a lot of doubts about specific areas of my writing, as you mentioned, but I’m really happy that I didn’t listen to those negative thoughts and pushed through regardless. Writing for yourself can honestly feel very healing at times.
- Love to hear that you identified with Eden and Levi in some ways. Eden definitely has certain qualities I can relate to as well - moreso her inner qualities as opposed to outward. I’m happy it helped you reflect and value situations :).
- Sorry for the tears, but I also love knowing my writing impacted people this much 🥲. I’m happy it moved you.
- I definitely made Eden suffer so much in this story 😭 maybe a bit too much, as you said. Her mother died, she had a shitty father that practically disowned her (then all of a sudden wanted to enter her life again), was raised with shitty propaganda against her kind that, as a result, allowed them to get murdered, broke the heart of the man she loved, etc. The list goes on.
- Levi and Eden’s relationship post-reveal was definitely one of the most heartbreaking aspects of the story. Levi said a lot of things he didn’t mean, and ik many readers were wondering why Eden didn’t put him in his place sooner 😂. It was very toxic at that point; they’d constantly go back and forth with Eden trying really hard to lighten the mood, but Levi would go back to square one and say something indicating he didn’t care about her anymore, even though it was a flat out lie. He probably could have handled his feelings differently… but honestly, even though he was being an asshole, I feel like some of Eden’s attempts at reaching out to him were realistic in some ways? Like, he was being toxic and a complete dick, but she was also very deeply in love with him and missed him. Love can blind you sometimes, and she still wanted a little piece of him back. But then the whole hate sex scene happened and she had enough sjsjdjdkf. That was the moment she realized she needed to stop trying because it didn’t seem like he was ever going to change his perspective of her.
- I feel like I owed everyone a happy epilogue, so I’m glad you enjoyed! Honestly, I made them suffer so much that a happy ending was necessary lol. I considered killing Eden off plenty of times, but I don’t think anyone would have forgiven me skskdfjs.
- “Loving you made me feel free” is also one of my favorite quotes. It really put into perspective how guarded and trapped Eden felt when it came to her emotions, and how falling for Levi helped her find herself, in a way.
- I feel honored that you plan to write this in your book journal! Literally such a huge compliment.
- Happy you enjoyed the playlist! I feel like I might do that for future fics too. We’ll see :).
- I am fluent in Spanish! It’s definitely not perfect, but I do speak it :). English is my stronger language, but Spanish is practically all I speak at home. I can still read, write, and speak it, so I don’t mind messages in Spanish :). I could use the practice with reading tbh bc I don’t read in Spanish often anymore 😅.
Thank you so much for your words, my love. I truly, truly appreciate it. I say it all the time, but I really do value these kinds of messages. Thank you for taking the time to write this for me :).
Take care ❤️.

lengthy ask anon: omg you actually answered all of those you are amazing wow ty!! i need to reread ch5 now but also just reread the whole thing bc wow what a way to end ❤️
if you'll indulge in more asks? and again feel free to pick and choose whichever you'd like!
was diego's amy named after amy pond? also does bea and d have lengthy doctor who discussions?
does bea not have to be at the lighthouse 24/7 when suzanne's there?
the way you had so much about both bea and ava was beautiful. was it a conscious choice to balance how much we got of each of them?
sixth to the ninth was alternating perspectives but this one was purely from ava's pov (absolutely loved how you write her voice btw!) did you have that planned from the start? what was most fun about writing purely from ava's point of view?
why Norway? ("why not?" is a fair answer lol)
on the flipside, is there a scene that you'd be curious to see from bea's perspective?
oohohoh any missing scenes/scenes you had to cut?
how are you celebrating (and grieving) the end of this magnificent fic?
hi lengthy ask anon, i love this sm so imma go ahead and start answering these 😂
1. I DIDN’T THINK OF THAT ACTUALLY??? BUT OMG THAT’S PERFECT 💀 and also yes, they could probably go hours just talking about it and ava would absolutely nap to the sound of them having debates about it
2. nope! she’s a relief lighthouse keeper, so she only ever works there when suzanne needs her to. which is,,, more times than suzanne cares to admit definitely
3. yep! a conscious choice and an outright struggle lmao but when i planned for this fic to be in ava’s pov, i also planned for both of their backstories plus the scenes that’d make it possible for them to share. i—tbh, i spent an unhinged amount of time just planning this LMAO
4. also yes! i don’t normally write in just one character’s pov, but it seemed fun so i was like whatever 😂 as for what i loved about writing from her perspective, it’s definitely her love for living and the world. that was a major thing in this fic, and it’s the primary reason why i chose to write this in her pov. honorable mentions: her rambly thoughts are so much fun to write, her humor too.
5. ok so i was researching lighthouses and turns out, there aren’t a lot of them that are still manned — most are automated now. but of the places i read about, norway seemed like the one that realistically would have more lighthouses than average. that, and i was going for end of the earth kind of vibe without going all the way to like,,, the north/south pole 😂
6. so many 😭 like so, so many. the storm for one. that walk for the final tasks before they kissed was another. then also her planning to leave with ava. i could go on and on about this 😂
7. also so many 💀 there’s one where ava transfers a piece of penne onto bea’s plate because bea joked “i’ll give you a penne for your thoughts”. the dancing in the epilogue was supposed to be a whole thing. i also have enough fragments for another smut scene. and these are all just,,, in my notes and i have no idea what to do with them LMAO

Hi! I just recently discovered your blog because of the post about comments.
And it was the most precious thing I ever read.
I suffer from social anxiety, and sometimes even leaving comments on fan fics makes me sweat, but I have managed to cope with it most healthily. Besides, my English has improved a lot, so I can write comments that match better my thoughts and personality.
I recently had an experience with an author,, who even reached me through Tumblr to thank me for a comment I deleted.
The thing is, I had a bad experience with an author, where I mentioned this fan fic they wrote and I enjoyed it so much, that discovering they write for another fandom I adore made me so happy. But, this author took it in the wrong way...
So, going back to the author, that reached me... I deleted my comment because, the fan fic I read of them before, is now orphanded. And, when I commented on this new fan fic (from a totally different fandom), I told them I enjoyed their other work (I even decided not to mention the name of the fan fic, just being cautious) but, I had second guesses and decided to delete my comment.
I never thought the author would send me a DM thanking me for that comment.
It was unexpected, to say the least. But sweet.
Also, I write fan fics. They don't receive a lot of comments, but I don't mind. I'm aware there are a lot of reasons for people not writing comments, but, now I need to think about if I had ever been perceived as rude, intimidating, or scary.
I have a lot to think about.
Sorry I let this sit in my ask box for so long!!!! I felt like it deserved a thoughtful response. ❤️ It was so sweet of you to tell me this. It’s been encouraging to see how many people agree with me, and simultaneously discouraging to see how many readers have had such terrible personal experiences interacting with authors. Obviously I think most authors are kind and receptive to comments, so it’s sad to see how many people might have missed out on kind and thoughtful comments because a handful of people are mean and inflammatory.
Obviously it’s such a nuanced issue, especially when you factor in language barriers, anxiety, neurodivergence, etc. it all feels so much harder than it needs to be.
It was good that author reached out and DM’d you about your comment!!!! I probably would have done the same thing tbh. even when I get triple notifications that someone’s edited their comment a few times I read all the versions and compare, lol.
It’s kind of crazy because back in the day on ffn I got some BRUTAL comments (someone told me my dialogue made my fic unreadably bad 😭) and those people were objectively assholes saying that to someone with “13 years old” in their bio. but also….I would not be the writer I am today without the criticism I received. nowadays if I was averaging dozens of comments a chapter and then I post several chapters with only a handful I have no idea if people have stopped reading/engaging because the problem is with the pacing, they don’t like the direction it’s going, etc. or if life got in the way. if saying your true reactions was still commonplace I’d be able to have a truer gage of what’s going on behind the scenes.
I’m the one posting my work online, and I’m responsible for my own emotional health in terms of reacting to what people say to me. people are allowed to leave mean comments, the internet is public. but I’m allowed to be hurt by them. but also, if I respond rudely, other people have a right to choose not to leave comments on my work in the future.
idk where I’m going with this except to say it’s hard work, both being a reader and being a writer. there’s no solution aside from everyone working together to be more loving and understanding across the board.
my post was originally just a heads up to my followers I know read my fic who might not comment about my personal preferences, not a universal “this is objective and universal for all readers and writers” so it’s been interesting to see it taken as such. crazy how many people can take a post about taking things in good faith in such bad faith!!!! so I’m very glad to hear that it hit for you ♥️ asks like this make the 10,000 angry notes in my activity feed feel worth it 😂

// dating 101:
dating in 2024 is for the bold
—- the tea for today is that men invented romance to manipulate women; not everything the glitters is gold* ✨
i wanna make this post with a few tips for my girls who find themselves in the middle of talking stages + situationships — it’s so annoying seeing some ppl make the dating scene worse for the rest of us 😭 // this post is about raising the bar*
💘 // No Sex: — if you take anything from me, take this!!
this totally depends on your “relationship�� everything has it’s nuances + exceptions but I really wanna emphasize that you don’t need to hook up with every guy you’re dating…
especially if it’s someone you want to be “serious” with - absolutely no sex!
if it’s something you need to deal with, then you do that with someone else - like a FWB - but you do NOT hook up with the guy that your trying to be “serious” with
what if he asks?! for sure he’s going to try, you should deff tell him NO obvi 🤭🙃🤷🏻‍♀️💕✨
If you are JUST “talking” or in a “situationship” - AKA not official then no, he can go somewhere else or pay for it 🤷🏻‍♀️🙃 idc, just not you*
the moment you hook up and ur not official you lost him — what do u look like giving it away for a compliment?! #dontbecheap — no official title (relationship) = no sessi time 🤷🏻‍♀️🙃
💘 // Speaking of Cheap!: — let’s say your “dating” or talking or whatever label you want to put on ur situationship — with a “high value” man
you deff don’t want to hook up BUT also no nudes! a man *will try* I’m not saying it will be easy, but you will have to redirect the convo 🤭
// idc if it’s been a whole year(s) - you make him wait* — the “higher” the value (to you) the more u make him wait* && i promise you, you’ll end up his favorite 🤭✨ ps: don’t be fooled money is not the only requisite a man needs…
💘 // Don’t Mix: — each person you “date” has their own individual category*
but what you can’t do is mix them up together if you’re looking for it to go anywhere, ur FWB is not the same person as the situationship
you should deff still keep them around until you think whatever else you having going on is “official” // who you hook up with is always separate + different then who you’re “dating”
💘 // Don’t Chase: — idc how cute you think is, idc who much you “miss him”, idc what a great catch you think he is…
👏 Don’t 👏 Chase 👏 Him*
the sad truth is *many* men today are feminized — it’s such a twisted + depressing result of modern feminism
let him look for you* — might take a few days, shouldn’t take weeks tho* but never be the one who initiates anything*
no “hello” texts, no “wyd”, nothing** you wait for him to be a *man* && reach out to you
femmes *receive* and idc if he’s “bi” — you actually won’t even have this problem with a bisexual man tbh — you’d be surprised how “conservative” gender norms are within the *real* lgbtq community, bi men are deliciously alpha*
// he’ll do all the “traditional manly” things, that kind of gotten lost in the sauce in modern dating — moral of the story tho - don’t initiate, it has to be him, always*
💘 // Some Don’ts:
- situationships don’t take “trips” together bc odds are he’s trying to hook up + idc how much potential you see, you do not hook up*
- stop asking him how his day @ work went, should be self explanatory but don’t associate yourself w that aspect of his life unless you own a business together or something but even then - no ty* // meeting @ work is also different but “work” shouldn’t be a highlight*
- FWBs + Situationships *doesn’t equal* having a posicion* , the moment this man starts parading a new toy in front of you, instead of reacting — drop him* — anytime ur not official and some guy pulls a disrespectful ass stunt, yes — you leave expeditiously**
- a man ur not committed to in any “official” capacity doesn’t *deserve* chances to get it “right” — men who are NOT my man get 3 strikes before i leave him wherever he had me fucked up @ 🙃
- men know *exactly* wtf they’re doing — weaponized incompetence is a real thing and I’d much rather you cuss me out - vs - play dumb in my face like a toddler - men will *pretend* && will play stupid if you let them
- talking stages aren’t 7yrs btw lol all of these “getting to know you” stages should be 3-6 mths tops, any longer then that and he’s just wasting ur time — the moment you reach 10+ mths, he’s deff wasting ur time
- don’t get with anyone with a sorry excuse about why their divorce is not finalized, + deff don’t believe any BS story about him wanting to leave her for you lol — most men who do this are *actors* who want their cake and eat it too - no thx - these type of men usually have a storyline already set up— should go without saying but unless he’s actually *divorced* you shouldn’t be “dating” either
💌✨ // Part Deux tbc…

Tbh I didn’t notice mihawk apologising to shanks in marine ford and god. Luffy really means EVERYTHING to shanks. He put all of his faith into that boy and the new era. At least that’s how I’m interpreting that scene. As even bigger confirmation of shanks complete believe in Luffy that he probably spoke to so many people about 😭 I want to know why, why he sees him like that? What did roger said to him, because I’m sure it’s connected
yeah, that’s absolutely how i interpret that scene, and the way shanks talks luffy up to everybody he can—that shanks met luffy, and something about that encounter hit him hard with the feeling that this kid is the one. and everything he’s done since then has been setting the stage for luffy to do his thing. (…whatever that is.)
now, i’ve gone on the record before as not wanting to speculate too much when the available information is so sparse, and that’s still true. oda’s not subtle when he withholds things from us, so we know we’re missing some pretty important information on this front.
i for one am pretty sure the ultimate answer to the question of what it is that shanks sees in luffy lies in a combination of things: the conversation roger had with shanks before he left, and luffy’s secret dream. (you know, the one that only shanks, ace, and sabo knew about, before he told the strawhats in chapter 1060?) but what exactly those things might be, i really have no idea.

I'm this close to falling asleep so bear with me even it none of the things I say now makes sense. Ok? ok. So. I finished reading on the 22nd, so when Wrio's bday came thru I was still Processing™ the whole story and oh my. The most starking thing was actually opening the game and walking around with him and having the whiplash that he, right there, dont have a cute thing at home to torture (affectionate), that I can walk into Meropide and there isn't a npc named George clutching his broken wrist and lowly cursing the Duke.
Your characterization of all the characters was so close to canon, and the build of the story is so solid, and the development of the scenes flowed so well, that it's HARD to separate from things in game. What is going on. I certainly *will* meet Little Miss running around Fontaine... right?? Fic succesfully downloded and stored, I am currently kissing your forehead as I THANK YOU TO THE MOON AND BACK for taking your time to create this fic. Is one of my favorites in this fandom for goddamn sure.
Tumblr media
Omg ✋😭 this is honestly such an amazing message to receive, I almost don’t have the words to tell you just how much I’m glad you liked my silly little fic. xmekxkzksmsisl I was actually just watching one of my friends play the Meropide quest for the first time on Friday and maaaaan that really sent me straight back into the headspace I was in while writing Flesh-Devouring. It’s kind of visceral for me too tbh, like I spent 80k words in that place with that man and I remember walking down those steel lined halls, sitting in the infirmary with Sigewinne, bending over that massive desk in his office to receive a demonstration spanking. LIKE. Ugh.
I fear that it may just be my favorite fic I’ve ever written and I am OVER the moon, squealing and kicking my feet that it’s one of your faves too. 🙏🥹 So thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with me throughout this journey, it’s been a major blast revisiting that story with you. Sending you so many virtual hugs and kisses right now, please know I appreciate and cherish you. 🩵

Kingdom of Ash
Struggling to get into this one
Awww Rowan and aelins babies
This book feels like all my sweet babies are grown up 😭
Omfg is Yrene pregnant?? Is this the book they all have babies? Idk if I’m gonna like that
Dorian is gonna learn how to shift!! Wait last fall? This all happened so fast! 8 books of drama in like two years?? Jesus
I’m 100 pages in and needing more!! The last two books ended with so much action to be had it feels like nothing is happening!
Okay Manon is looking for a way to connect with the Cochran and her great grandma literally told her ‘we got our fire cuz Brannon GALATHYNIYS gave it to our queen your great great great great great grandma’ and you’re literally allied with Aelin Galathynius….. I read that and said ‘whoop there it is’
Yay Aelin is back!! Taking her scars is FUCCKKKED
I have been slacking on note taking but I’m like 400 pages in now and Aelin and Yrene finally met!!!!! I’m so ready for Aelin to start kicking ass again!
Oh and I hope Lysandra is okay….
So many story lines finally coming together!
Queen of witches🥹
Okay I’m getting sick of Aelin not using her power!! People are DYING Aelin! Get it together miss ma’am
When is it gonna be revealed that Elide had dope powers? I know it’s gonna happen
Okay Elide your man just got cut down, now would be the time to be a powerful badass
What a stupid reason for Aelin to not be using her powers. You’re literally at war lol
Manon and Dorian always get me!!! Ugh she loves him and just wants him to stay and not sacrifice himself!! Me toooooo!!
Forget any bad thing I’ve ever said about Elide and Lorcan, they’re precious 😭😭😭
Why doesn’t Yrene use the tower to cure all the valg
Don’t ask me why I go over huge plot points and don’t feel the need to document my emotions but Lorcan gives Elide a foot rub and I’m 😯🤭📝✍️ But seriously me too girl, a man giving you a foot rub is sensual as hell iykyk lol
The way that could’ve been so hot and SJM just blue balls the shit out of the reader. It’s fine I’m fine. She just got my heart racing just to go into one of Aelin’s fucked up nightmares 👍🏻 cool cool cool
Aelin and Dorian have all 3 word keys…
No one has died yet and I don’t want anyone to!!! I’m so scared I have 250 pages left, I know what feelings are coming for me I just don’t know why yet wait did Dorian learn how to use portals from Maeve!?!? Could he transport the army. My boy is the most powerful mf in the books
Not Abraxos. Bitch I’ll throw this book out the window. PETRAH!!!!! Bitch that was So badass fuck Iskra
Wtf!!!!! The entire 13!?!? No I fucking can’t wtf!!! Seriously what the fuck
Waaaahh😭Dorian and Chaol
They’re not wasting time on a vote… really?
I’m hyperventilating reading this unfold. Please don’t kill Dorian or Aelin for this stupid gate
‘My name is Aelin Ashryver Galathynius and I will not be afraid’ WAAAAAAHH 😭
The king saving Dorian and telling Aelin her parents are proud 🥲 I’m not ok
Snow capped mountains under shining stars. Where A winged Fae male stood beside a heavily pregnant female, gazing at those very stars. 👀👀👀👀
Wow Rhys saved her
Chapter 100 wow I’m so proud of myself
So quick recap: Stones are gone no longer in play and gate is shut meaning erawan can’t ever return to his brothers of bring them to him. BUT he and maeve are still strong scary muthafuckas who have like 100k soldiers a bunch of witches and 6 spider fuckers cool 👍🏻
Oh no Murtaugh
It’s about time Lysandra and Aedion! You’ve literally lived eachother for like 4 books now
Aelin has missed her entire war. It’s literally her war on her land and she’s been absent for like all of it.. I’m glad she saved Anielle but her own home needed her weeks ago
Darrow naming Evangeline his heir got me all teary eyed and shit
Omfg Gavriel!!!! No no no why do I even read SJM books they just hurt me
All the battle scenes are so bleak, they’re getting smeared in this war!! I don’t see how they’re going to pull through tbh I’m waiting for a big Aelin scheme but idk if I can take another 100+ pages of them getting they butts whooped
Ugh ‘And she will not be afraid’ that’s gonna stick with me forever
I’m so close! They did it! Chaols reading a letter from his mom and his wife literally saved the world 😭
I’m unwell.

No because the character design >>>> I also LOVE KIJA SHSHSJSHS man I miss yotd….
Also OMG CHERRY TREE PT 2 commentary after I finish replying
OOOOH omg a long series for bllk…(we all chant KARASU TABITO in the background…) but omg yeah I can only imagine the amount of research needed for hollyhock’s setting shsgshsb
Omg waittt zantetsu switch up?? Ok but I mean if you still want to write for Karasu…I’m always ready for a brainstorming thought dump session….only if you want though LOL
HOLELDHDS SHIT THE BAROU ONE??? Ok im ngl the chokehold that edits to that song have on me….idk why something about the beat and “melody” ushsjshsj also LMAOO THE WOMANIZER ONE classic Otoya edit…ok but the nagi ones are fire and I can also see why you were converted by that rin one…
Ok but if you have any especially fire Karasu ones don’t be shy…I almost never see edits of him it’s so sad
LMAOOO if you ever write that you NEED to add that line in there it’s so perfect (Karasu and Yukimiya trying to protect the girl at first is so real and so cute I can only imagine the rollercoaster ride of mishaps that would happen in this story LMAO)
LMAOOO BAROUISM SO REAL THOUGH?? Yes fortunately he’s basically locked in for the rest of the series!! Excited to see him again soon after the PxG match!! Also curious by what role he’ll play in the current epinagi match too! But omg wait nagi Barou and Karasu all together epinagi said welcome to the miraverse
Ok COMMENTARY: RAGAHHDH THAT WAS SO GOOD lowk you do a really good job of like developing stories and plots that when I read it I didn’t even feel like it was “short” or shorter than fwtkac…like just perfectly paced *chefs kiss*
Also 1) SEABIRD Y/N MENTION LMAOOOOOOO 2) omg stalker Rin was lowk so funny he really said “yeah idk what to say so I’ll just follow you silently like a creep” DHHSSHSH I also love how the roles kinda flip and Rin now has to wait for y/n…also the trees THE TREES >>>>> tree imagery and hidden messages my fav I also love awk but mature Rin like it’s still clumsy soccer nerd Rin but the development is there!!!
Another Mira banger excited for whatever’s next!!
- Karasu anon
i wouldn’t say kija is a top fav (shinah and hak are my beloveds) but i’ve seen some GORG fanart of him so i def see the vision there ☝🏻
cherry tree part two 🥹 i wanted it to be a surprise because i never mentioned working on it but LMAOO it was so funny i saw that rin edit WHILE WRITING WILLOW TREE so it was like a double whammy dose of itoshi broism that made it even worse 😭
tbh as much as there’s so many characters i want to write a long fic for it’s only the ones i DON’T like as much that i get ideas for 😭 like i got the idea for hollyhock while trying to come up with something for NAGI so we’ll see what happens and who ends up inspiring me but it’ll definitely be a surprise…honestly i think i need to pick the au first and THEN decide which character feels natural in it instead of vice versa if that makes sense
LMAO i will hold off for now but if that changes i will let you know!! i’m sure i’ll come up w something because i lowkey have no zantetsu ideas sooo…dumb characters as much as i love them are not my favs to write as love interests because i would simply never fall for a dumb guy irl so it breaks my immersion while writing somehow 😭
THE BAROU ONEEEEE it fits him so well too somehow!! hehe nagi edits are always so good because he has so many scenes in season one plus soooo many fire manga panels that editors have a LOT of material to work with!! and otoya LMAOAO he’s so goofy i love him (surprisingly not aiku though…idk why i can get behind eita but not aiku even though both are cheaters?? like looks aside ofc 😭 maybe it’s because we actively see aiku being weird in the manga whereas it’s only referenced in the egoist bible for otoya so it doesn’t feel as in your face)
OKAYYY tbh there’s not a lot of variety in karasu/otoya edits because they don’t really have any anime scenes yet but here are some i have saved!! fair warning you might’ve already seen these because like you said there’s not much out there for them…
karasu + otoya
karasu
karasu + barou 🤩🤤
you didn’t ask for him but YUKIMIYA
otoya edit using his 0.02 seconds of anime screentime
EASILY the most famous barou edit it has over one million likes and almost twelve million views so you’ve almost definitely seen it but i’m including it anyways because barou…lowkey flash warning though LOL
NO BECAUSE IT’S SO GOOD like the worst man she’s met (oliver aiku) taking her under his wing and teaching her how to be a player meanwhile karasu and yukimiya are yelling at otoya to leave this poor innocent girl alone and otoya is just like “wow…y/n has beautiful eyes…” too chaotic fr
BAROUISM FOR LIFE i’ve liked him since i first watched the show but he was typically overshadowed by me loving nagi and then later karasu so it’s only fair he gets his chance in the spotlight 🤩 omg but also the way nagi is the only hair gel free man in the miraverse top three LMAOAOA he’s holding down the fort fr 😩🙏🏻 needs to impart some wisdom to karasu and barou af
OMG YAYYY I WAS WORRIED IT WOULD BE TOO SHORT although tbh i don’t worry too much abt word count with sequels because like the main story is long enough…okay lowkey secret fact i hope i don’t keep getting a ton of pt2 requests because i love leaving stories open ended and doing a pt2 takes away from that 😩 like that’s why i don’t want to write a pt2 for white butterfly even though multiple people have hinted at wanting one LMAOAAO i just think it ended in a place where expanding it would feel like i was mansplaining to my readers almost 😭 i def think that’s a personal preference too a bit because i personally love reading open endings like they’re so good at making you think and leaving the story on your mind…tbh the impact of an open ending is UNMATCHED it doesn’t have the same vibe when the ending is like fully written out idk if that makes sense ANYWAYS rant over back to commentary!!
LMAOOOO SEABIRD Y/N MENTION FR sae finally put a ring on it ‼️ yk that was the most chaotic proposal ever too 😭 i just thought it would be funny to connect the two stories since there’s nothing rlly saying they CAN’T be connected plus since bllk did kinda vaguely and probably exist in cherry tree (y/n doesn’t go to japan until her freshman year of college so like 18 years old?? and rin would’ve just turned 19 because september birthday so it’s three years after bllk began which is why he isn’t on lockdown) it’s hilarious to imagine like rin being all emo and needing to destroy sae or he’ll die and giving these long ass dramatic monologues abt how sae is his ultimate goal meanwhile sae is just eating sandwiches on the beach with his gf
STALKER RIN MY KING i wanted to show that no matter how much more mature he is it’s still the same awkward fumbling soccer loser rin we all know and many love 😭 like bro has no clue what he’s doing he left his country with a university name, nagi’s sweatshirts, and a dream 😩🙏🏻 and somehow it worked out for him but like imagine y/n transferred or graduated early or smth HAHAA he would’ve been cooked 😰
i’m glad you liked it 😄 hehe i had fun writing it this was def one where i didn’t mind the part two it was very cutesy and enjoyable to do 😫 i have nine requests on my list that i need to finish up so it’ll be something from there ig!! not sure which req i’m going to do first 🤔 there’s a couple that are the same vibe as the isagi ones where i could def finish them in 1-2k words so i might try to get those out of the way first just so they’re out there and i feel productive!!
