#anyways hopefully this makes sense with how it’s explained in a basic kind of way

[a-f00lish-saint]

a little piece of lore about Yera is that she got ‘courier 6’ed in what would be SR4/SR’reboot, or as I’m calling it SR’Reborn-arc for my AU rn, but yeah, she gets shot in the head at some point in my canon/AU.

[raisedbythetv89]

excuse the ranting here but just had someone try and argue that a fully evil literally on the hunt for the Slayer (bc he’s stalking his PREY to fight and hopefully kill) Spike - finding Buffy attractive (according to an interview James gave where he talks about that moment and said he embodied the kinds of predatory men who literally are “on the hunt” for real life women in bars) as anywhere NEAR the same level of creepiness as a SOULFUL aka SUPPOSED TO BE GOOD angel stalking and falling in love at the sight of an innocent and crying 15 year old Buffy….

Anti spike/spuffy ppl always try and use that interview to make Spike out to be “just as creepy” as Angel which is always just so embarrassing to me that they don’t grasp the basic difference between one was the most evil and literally is a predator to her prey but buffy is also a predator to spike’s kind so there is even still a balance of power between them even then and he’s literally just explaining how he played the scene to get the attitude and body language right as a predator bc he understands that’s what Spike is to Buffy at that time (literally had zero clue he would ever be a love interest of Buffy’s). And the other who is not supposed to be a predator anymore…. hides his identity as a vampire AND hides the fact that he’s been watching her for over a year is still acting as a predator but instead of stalking an experienced slayer to attempt to fight and kill he is stalking a freshly called still weak and vulnerable slayer who he wants to sleep with aka corrupt.

Angel is supposed to be GOOD yet is still acting like a predator. Spike IS EVIL and so is simply acting as someone who has killed two slayers should 💀💀💀💀 the fact that soulless evil Spike and soulful “good” Angel’s behavior can be compared AT ALL is bad for angel and angel alone bc spike is supposed to be evil and treating buffy as someone he is hunting and as an opponent. Angel is supposed to be HELPING Buffy….

But regardless of all that the argument is James said Sarah is beautiful so of course he played up that angle as well so canonically Spike thinks a 16 year old Buffy is pretty and these people really don’t understand the difference between the two 😭😭

First of all I personally have heard Sarah call herself “not the prettiest” at least 10 times in 10 different interviews - how often do you think the people in her life heard her make jokes or comments about her appearance??? To me that always seemed like James just paying a compliment to his costar who doesn’t understand how literally fucking STUNNING she is by basically being like HAVE YOU SEEN HER OF COURSE MY CHARACTER THINKS SHE’S PRETTY LOOK AT HER!! James literally rizzed his way into a main character and love interest like of course he’s gonna be charming in real life by paying compliments to everyone he can every chance he gets. He had sex appeal and a dream AND IT WORKED 💀 and we also see him have chemistry with practically every person on the show that’s just who he is 😹😹😹

But I also just cannot emphasize how much of a difference there is between finding someone attractive or thinking they’re beautiful vs actually ACTING on it and ESPECIALLY acting on it when you call her friend of the same age “just a kid” and say over and over again how wrong it is and that she’s too young AND THEN DO IT ANYWAY. Like it’s a supernatural show with vampires who are 100 & 200+ years old if angel hadn’t constantly acted like her dad and treated Buffy like a kid and everything is season 3 didn’t happen there could be sooooooo much more leniency with angel and buffy’s age differences and I probably wouldn’t care bc applying irl rules to the supernatural doesn’t make a lot of sense but angel always treats her like a child and says over and over again how wrong it is and THAT is what makes it a problem within this supernatural show bc Spike never treats her like a child or like she isn’t his equal ever no matter what age she is

But unfortunately it makes sense people who like a character whose main personality trait is !catholic guilt! (when he’s got a soul) don’t understand the difference between thoughts and actions and how we should only be defining ourselves and other people by their actions. Because we are not every single thought we’ve ever had both good and bad. If you think to do good things but don’t that does not make you good and if you think to do bad things but don’t that does not make you bad.

So evil Spike thinking a beautiful Buffy dancing with her friends is hot at 16 is not even CLOSE to the same as a supposed to be good angel activity pursuing a relationship with her by breadcrumbing the absolute fuck out of her, manipulating her like crazy and lying to her about practically everything and flirting with her under false pretenses after falling in love at the sight of her looking like a child with her lollipop on the school steps at 15 and then watching her cry in the bathroom mirror as he watches her from the bushes with a smile on his face and hope in his eyes and if you don’t understand that there is literally nothing I can do or say to help you

Ok I'm genuinely confused here so don't be mean please. All of this is /genq /nbr

I have a dissociation disorder and I'm questioning plurality (I would be considered traumagenic if I am 1). From my understanding of systems, they're formed through trauma that happens before the age of ten. The brain puts up amnesia barriers and the child's personality doesn't form correctly, so multiple alters are formed instead.

Endos confuse me. They're systems that say they somehow did this without trauma? How do they fit into this? Like, I want to be supportive but some of the rhetoric I've seen genuinely pushed me into a panic attack once (it was a post saying basically you can just make headmates whenever if you want and for fun, you don't need trauma or anything which I think made me upset cos... Why would someone want to be a system and how could they view it as a whole as fun?? & the idea you could just manifest it out of thin air confuses me deeply)

I'm sorry if you don't want asks like this but you're a relatively big blog and I've just seen you say you support endos so I figured you'd be a good person to ask.

Explanation below cut because it got long ^^

Ah, well. Most, if not like all endogenic systems, are non-disordered or use that term.

Endogenic systems can form in many different ways -- we're traumagenic, but we're pretty sure there are some endo alters, and we usually find them by talking into the void of the brain and getting a response that isn't from somebody established-- I'm sorry, this isn't very helpful, but think about it like:

Talking to yourself in your brain, and then suddenly you realize that you do not in fact control the person/alter replying, and that is not you. That's kind of what it's like.

Think of a cave:

At first, you think the echo is yourself. And it probably is, or it could be. And then the echo doesn't say what you say anymore -- it changes it and it isn't exactly 'you' speaking. Well the brain is the cave and the echo is a headmate forming.

This is the way that WE know about when alters form. It's a bit like this. We/a member thinks that we/they're thinking to our/themselves, and then bam. somebody different. not formed from stress or trauma

I'm sure there are other ways this could happen,, but none that we know of

so instead of uhm

I've seen this diagram/things like it to describe DID + plurality, so I'll explain with this.

This is an adult brain

This is a child's brain

This is the child's brain developing

With this model, DID (from what I've seen,,) looks like this.

The circles spread out, and might combine into large circles between themselves but not a full one as the brain develops

I'm not sure how accurate this model is, but I've seen people use it to describe DID. This is a sort of simplified version that makes more sense but is probably less detailed

Anyway let's say an endogenic systems starts as a large circle -- though,, this might not always be correct and is probably not majorly correct, since brains take a while to develop (im so sorry if this diagram is confusing. The circles are supposed to resemble child's thoughts/personality traits and how they assemble into a person. Or at least i think--)

Well anyway, an endogenic systems would look like this in my brain:

A part of the person kind of drifts off into its own thing

And then it might turn out like this

Sometimes there's a piece that there's no way to know where came from. They just kind of appear. They might have dropped from the brain, who knows? It can be hard to tell.

These can be fictives, or other alters.

Anyway this is my take/diagram on how endo systems form. It's probably inaccurate, but hopefully we got it mostly right ;;

[ahschrucymous]

4, 8, 37, or 38, if you'd like to. hello!!

hiii ^_^ oh my gosh putting all my answers under a read more bc this definitely got away from me lol :') thank you!!

4. How many fic ideas are you nurturing right now? Care to share one of them?

Right now I don't have any concrete fic ideas, but I do have a lot of shows/movies/media that I'd love to explore through a Schrucy lense just bc the dynamic reminds me so much of them!

Ships like Haru x Dan Oh from Extraordinary You, and Rang Rang x Su Zai Zai from WIFTY are very reminiscent of Schroeder and Lucy to me and very inspiring <3

8. Share a snippet from one of your favorite dialogue scenes you’ve written and explain why you’re proud of it.

This is very long and not really fleshed out at all yet, but I wanted to play with the idea of Schroeder being in love with Lucy and kind of patiently 'waiting for her' if that makes sense?

Because she's not ready to commit for various reasons. Anyway here you go:

"Do you think we were together in a past life?" She asked, when the sun began to drip into the horizon, the sounds of the rest of their friends continuing the party on the old baseball field behind them.

He considered it for a moment, still sagged against her lazily. His blond curls brushing dark waves.

Their friends continued on, unaware of the conversation taking place between them, used to the sight of Schroeder and Lucy together now, where there would've been scandal in the past. In the distance, Charlie Brown shrieked loudly, and Frieda laughed wickedly.

"Probably," Schroeder replied, looking into the sky's last rays, adding quietly. "Hopefully."

He didn't look at Lucy as he said it, feeling somehow that it would hurt more to look at her directly, than to drag his eyes from the dying sun.

Feeling somehow, that she was more blinding.

"What do you think we would've been like then?" Lucy asked, past the thumping of her heart.

She'd never get used to knowing that he loved her.

Schroeder hummed softly, shifting so he could lay his head down in her lap. The movement was easy, comforting and familiar even as it rushed the blood pumping through his heart. In a way, he was already answering her question.

Like this, Luce. We would've always been like this.

"What time period are you thinking of?" He asked her instead, fighting to keep himself steady. "Medie-"

"-val. Yes, exactly." She grinned, leaning down to run her fingers through his hair, loving how comfortable they'd become with each other. "You would've been a bard."

"And you would've been a princess," he replied, his chest warmed at her touch and her perception of him.

The dark-haired girl scoffed in soft disagreement "Not a queen?"

"Not without a king." The blond boy in her lap said, his eyes soft and a little sad. He reached up to grasp at her wrist, taking her hand and holding it to his chest, over his heart.

"If you were my queen," he conceded. "I'd have to change my advocation too, become a knight or something instead."

"Why?" Lucy asked as she leaned over him, swallowing thickly at the feeling of his hard and warm chest. "So that we could be close? Always in the same court?"

"Well, yeah." Schroeder looked up, unashamed in his selfish admiration of her. "That, and I've always known."

"Known what?" She quirked a brow, pushing past her heart again. "That you're in love with me?"

He nodded, but then he closed his eyes again. "That you're above me."

37. Talk about your current wips.

My only current WIP at the moment is milkshake lessons which I'm actually almost done with! I'm working on the last chap which is basically the 'epilogue' of sorts and I can't wait to get it closed off ^_^

38. Talk about a review that made your day.

Dude your reviews always make my day omg! Seriously I love the style and it's always a lot of fun going back over the chapter I've just posted and kind of seeing it through your eyes :') I can't thank you enough genuinely <3

[dynasty889]

I make thingy about Calypso cause I wanna talk about her and some of my just general thoughts about her. THIS EPIC: THE MUSICAL CALYPSO TAKE YALLS ODYSSEY AND PJO CALYPSOs SOMEWHERE ELSE (I might reference them though)

So first off, my general vibe of the character is kind of this optimistic yet isolated goddess to the point of delusion. I’m not exactly sure how to explain it, but considering her rather upbeat music I feel like that’s the vibe Jorge was going for, kind of like Circe in Puppeteer. It’s a great sound to the music but everything else tells you that the situation isn’t good (for Odysseus). In my opinion, Calypso seems to be unaware of the way she makes Odysseus feel. Now whether she’s actively ignoring it or genuinely can’t clock the situation is a whole other thing. I also definitely think she’s manipulative. Again, whether she knows she’s being manipulative or not is something else.

But something that I do find kind of interesting is her age in EPIC. In mythology, we can assume she’s at least a few centuries old (maybe even a millennia? If we go based on the fact she was around during the overthrow of the Titans but also I don’t know much time is in between that and the Odyssey so—). But in EPIC, she says she spent one, her entire life on the island and two, has been alone for 100 years. If she’s not exaggerating to get Odysseus to feel bad, then she’s pretty young in terms of deities. Only around 100 years old. It’s just a thought I had and maybe it makes sense. Hopefully.

Also, I know technically the whole “doomed to fall in love” and “imprisoned on Ogygia” comes from PJO, but that also seems to have a similar presence in EPIC. I think she did fall in love with Odysseus on her own terms rather than being doomed to, but I do think she isn’t able to leave. Maybe it’s not for some divine reason, maybe she just doesn’t know how to get off the island. Or maybe she is. But considering she’s been there her whole life and hasn’t ever bothered to just leave, I’m gonna assume there’s some divine reason she can’t leave. It’s kind of similar with Circe, whose characterization in EPIC seems to have similar elements from Circe in Madeline Miller’s novel (which seems to be indicated in a few lyrics in Done For and There Are Other Ways. Maybe even Wouldn’t You Like since Circe seems to know Hermes personally??? 👀👀)

Hmmm hmmm hmmm, I know there are other things I want to talk about. Oh yeah! I have a theory Zeus played a hand in keeping Odysseus on Ogygia with Calypso. You know, considering his attitude in God Games and some of the lyrics. Like not only does he get pissed at Athena beating him, but he also gets angry when he makes him “feel shame” (shame that he’s had Calypso trap Odysseus on Ogygia for 7 years?)

Anyway, this isn’t to say I like Calypso or am trying to defend her, but I do think she’s a very interesting character and deserves a little more analysis than “r*pist.” Why does she keep Odysseus with her? Are these actions the result of something that happened to her? etc. (these are kind of basic questions but just examples I suppose). Also I’m doing this because gigi’s animatics make me like her more than I should 😔

Also I just wanna say again Barbara Wangui is amazing.

Hi!!

What is your opinion on servant/despair nagito?

AUGH! hello autism activating anon thank you from your ask!

Servant I think honestly is pretty well written and doesn't erase any of Nagito's character which I really love. Also he's in like the most bdsm outfit??? ever??? HUH?? it's kind of hilarious tbh.

Mostly, I really enjoy that as a Despair Nagito's beliefs aren't just erased. He's willing to do even more for hope than before, becoming despair himself, whereas before he seemed to have a limit he wouldn't cross. Which is honestly saying something since he thinks murder can be valid in the name of hope beforehand anyways.

I also like the funny detail that he's a servant with a chain on his neck at all times, but no one is really pulling the strings? Like, he's a "servant," to the warriors of hope but truly he has control over the situation. He chooses to stay there, if he truly desired to he could have left. His chain is there, he has the appearance of a servant, but no one is tugging on it, he's the one truly in control. Hopefully that makes sense lmao!!

I also thought that him seeing Komaru being a normal girl and knowing Makoto had hidden hope as a talent thinking she might have hope as well is pretty well written! It definitely makes sense why he'd think that.

Also, as weird as it is I actually really like how he looks as servant. The artwork for his sprites and the fanart I've seen is really awesome honestly!!

I used to think that he was just in Ultra Despair Girls for fan service, which probably a bit, but I do actually really enjoy how they use his role as a contributing antagonist properly. It's mostly expanding upon the idea of him as a Despair that we see in Chapter 0 of Danganronpa 2 with his love and hate obsession with Junko. He wants to be more involved than ever before and has no limit for how far he'll go, he actively will create the despair needed himself for hope to thrive. And that's so cool!!! It's basically pulling him and his beliefs their utmost extreme to explain how someone like him could become a despair, and the best part is that it makes sense! You can understand it given his character. He hates despair, so the only way he'd ever be okay with becoming despair is if it was in the name of hope, and that's exactly what they do!

I also think it's SO funny that out of all of the despairs, he's the most harmless out of them. Like, Sonia burned her own country to the GROUND, Teruteru ate his OWN MOTHER, but Nagito? He was just a servant to some weird terrorist kids, and ultimately was the main contributing factor to hope winning in the end. He brought Komaru so there could be a fair fight with Hope and Despair after all!

I think Mocaca's character after Ultra Despair Girls was kind of treated badly lmao, like, I feel like there was a lot of missed potential but they just threw her to the side because they never planned to do anything with her. However the Idea Nagito's ramblings just made her sick of the world is HILARIOUS though. Kind of Ironic that he saved her in hopes to be a successor to Junko for more hope to win in the end when his contributions led her to becoming nothing.

Also pretty Ironic that he KNEW what Izuru was going to do, and he wanted to see Junko again. But he never did, he died before he got to see what him as a Despair wanted to see. By his own hands nonetheless!!

Nagito as a Despair is really fucking weird with his outfit and all, but I actually really do love him. I really love the outfit, the approach they take to the only way he could become a despair with his beliefs, and his role in the story.

The brainwashing plot is a little clumsy, but I do enjoy that the way they treat brainwashing in the Danganronpa franchise is that the despair video manipulates your emotions. It doesn't overwrite anything, it just adds a desire to cause despair or excuses causing despair more. I think it's a little more realistic than just a whole bunch of teenagers being talked into becoming terrorists anyway.

servant you are iconic mwa <3

could i get a mintrock fankid,if possible?

Okay so I feel like I went a bit off prompt, but here you go, I finally made her, this is Mint Toothpaste Cookie

Admittedly, maybe I could have given her a more occupational name instead of Mint Toothpaste, but I can’t think of one. Maybe I could come up with one in post, and if she has a different name, you know I changed it. I do at least have her character down, so

Anyways, Mint Toothpaste here is actually a scientist working at Astronaut’s agency (I don’t remember the specific NASA pun and right now I’m too lazy to look it up), and she specifically works with the Xylitolians, trying to learn and integrate their technology with their own. She’s also a bit of a fan of their fashion sense and has altered her outfit to more resemble theirs

Okay I know this angle is completely out of nowhere for a mintrock kid, but let me explain. The idea was based on her being made of toothpaste, and wanting to incorporate that into her character. Originally my idea was to maybe go a dentist route, though it felt a bit boring to me. Then I remembered Planet Xylitol also has a dentist/teeth theme, so I decided to use that concept and say that they’re connected

Also, I couldn’t think of anything interesting/something I liked that had to do with Mint Choco or Rockstar’s music angles. All I could think of was basically just going into a different genre of music, and that felt incredibly boring, so why not go in this sci fi route? In retrospect maybe I could have found something to ground her more to normalcy, but screw it

I don’t really know how she came to the scientist conclusion in her life, but shut up, she just did, don’t ask questions. Maybe it was Pink Choco

She does however still have music in her life, it’s just more of a hobby than a lifestyle. She is in fact, an accordion enjoyer and player (though I’m realizing it doesn’t look super good in that sketch now). She also enjoys music from video games she plays, and will sometimes play some of those songs on her accordion. She’s not the biggest strings fan, which is somewhat disappointing to her parents, but at least they didn’t have to compete over whether she would like the violin or guitar more (she thinks they’re just okay)

She’s a bit of a know it all, and while she does good at her job, and the Xylitolians like her, outside of work she kind of lets her job of integrating with an alien culture, being part of intergalactic history, go to her head. She’s sort of become that person who’s annoying after coming back from a study abroad (or so I’ve heard that’s a thing, I haven’t experienced that yet. Or maybe that was me with Britain last year), except she never left to go there and isn’t planning on ending her communication with them. Hopefully she gets better

And yeah, on to the design

So I called her Mint Toothpaste because it’s mint, and I like to imagine Rockstar as being made of shaving cream, and thus I like to imagine his kids not really having the most normal flavors. I didn’t really do that previously, but I did here. I believe the original name was going to be Mint Sauce

Mint toothpaste:

One thing I will say right off the bat, I’m sad that I couldn’t make her hair look as good as it did in the sketch. I tweaked it enough so it doesn’t look horrible, but in my opinion it looks much better in the sketch

But anyways, so her design was mainly based off of the Xylitol NPCs, since she was going to be connected to them. I actually didn’t decide until late whether or not she was living with them or working remotely, but regardless it’s a way to tie them in together. Though I also put in some Mint Choco flair with the coattails so she had something to separate them

I’ll admit right now, I don’t think she looks a lot like Rockstar, at least in the outfit. I used his jacket color in the accents, and she has his eye color, but I don’t know. Or maybe I only think that way because a lot of her colors come from Mint Choco

Also the little triangle in her top part of her suit is supposed to look like Rockstar’s necklace. It was just added to make her have a bit more to do with Rockstar, but I think it looks good on her

Honestly, I actually quite like how her design turned out. Yeah it’s not the most complex, it works with what she’s trying to do, and I think I did better than last time

And yeah, that’s it for Mint Toothpaste. I hope you like her!

[winterway]

Okay, so I legitimately thought nobody would see my little Heimerdinger and Ekko post, but apparently it’s getting some traction… so I feel the need to make another one, hopefully one that explains my thoughts a little better, lol.

Okay, so essentially, Heimerdinger is immortal. And as someone who used to be a teenager obsessed with LOTR I understand all the drama that comes with that, especially the sense of loss. It feels like the older you get, the less time seems significant to you, right? You all use Tumblr; you know what I mean.

Anyway, I think Ekko is a perfect foil for Heimerdinger in that regard because he’s just so young! He’s literally the ‘Boy’ savior.

Him and the firelights are basically the definition of young people fighting against older ideals (also known as the government trying to control them). They’re also, like I said in my previous post, fast. And I’m aware how random that is, but the presence of speed being so relevant in their design feels important to note because we’re comparing them to Heimerdinger… Mr. Slow himself.

They’re about changing the world NOW, about getting what’s needed to their people as soon as they can, and obviously, our beloved Hamster doesn’t share those ideals… until he meets them.

Ekko and his group change him; they show him how quickly things can change (of course, Jayce and Hextech helped with that, lol), and how quickly they need to act to catch up. And he gets it! He learns! And he starts to help, even with the small projects (which is adorable).

I think it’s just beautiful how this ancient furball can finally see a difference being made. He’s used to the slow climb, watching time fade away, but now, suddenly, he can help. He can see things happening in real time, and that opens his eyes to what he needs to do.

And I haven’t even dived into my thoughts about this and the time travel because, come on, I have SO many thoughts on that, but I shall keep it short for your sake.

Anyway, to sum it up, Ekko gave time to him. Sure, he literally helped give time to Ekko (in the form of a machine), but Ekko gave it back to him in the form of perspective.

He gets it now; he gets that he needs to help (personally, I have the headcanon that the other universe is also so good due to Heimerdinger's involvement), and more importantly, he gets that he needs to do it quickly. Not in the rushed manner of Hextech, but in the kind way. Like helping some random kid get back to his tree.

Okay I’m done, thanks for coming to my Ted talk, and I hope this made a bit more sense than my last post. I’m on one brain cell over here guys.

(Also please ignore the quality of some of these gifs, I found half of them off google and the quality SUCKS when you copy and paste them).

I'm new to tumblr and i'm not sure how rp bandwagons work on here haha.

I know i have to reblog them, but i'm not sure what happens next or where to put the starter 'n such. so sorry if this doesn't make sense LOL.

hi there! gotta be honest here, i have no clue what bandwagons are ( i tried looking it up but all i gathered was that it's something used in twitter rp ) so i'm not exactly sure this'll be the right answer. but i hope this will be of help for you anyway and is what you're looking for. if not, feel free to send me another ask and i'll try to give a better explanation.

after you've set up your blog and gathered some followers, there are two easy ways to get interactions going. technically there are more, but these two are the ones that work the quickest and make you start doing stuff on your blog.

starter calls. make a post titled starter call in which you give people a chance to request a starter from you. they can like or reply to that post, which in turn shows you they're interested in writing with you. now you can either reach out to plot with them ( if you want to ― usually, starter calls are more of a spontaneous thing that isn't really planned out, although it can eventually evolve into something deeper ) or just make a new post / starter for them. you can keep it simple with just a line of dialogue ( remember to make open dialogue and give your partner something to work with; roleplaying is a back-and-forth that requires some kind of effort being put into it ) or write maybe a paragraph or two ― whatever you feel like doing. it's best to tag the person the starter is for somewhere in the post ( you can do that by using @ and putting the username right after the symbol ) so they'll hopefully see your post. from there on, they reblog your post with their reply, and afterward, you reblog your reply to their post, and so on and so on.

memes. another easy way to get things going is by reblogging memes / sentence starters to your blog. you can find a variety of them either by looking up rp memes ( or if you want something more specific, e.g. angst starters, try looking up that ) and all you'll have to do is to click on the reblog button and put them on your blog. now your followers can send you one or multiple of these through your inbox ( which reminds me that you have to make sure that is turned on. to check that, go to your blog settings, scroll down until you see the switch titled "let people ask questions" and make sure it's on ) for you to reply to. as for your reply, you can either directly do that by accessing your inbox ( if you're on desktop, it's the little mail symbol on top / on mobile you can access it by clicking the profile button on the far right, then going to the settings at the top right and clicking on inbox ) and clicking answer or you can make a completely new post in which you'll copy and paste the sentence starter that was sent to you, and then do basically the same thing i explained for the starter call. write your reply, tag the person who sent it to you in it, and let the reply thread begin.

anyway, it might seem a little daunting at first but once you've got the hang of it, it's really simple and quite fun.

[writeblrsvoid]

Excuse this absolute essay of an ask. I had thoughts.

I decided to add a new dynamic into my storywriting because I saw a commentary about how media always saying that the villain has to die is actually a Not Great Thing. Basically, from now on, the only time a villain is going to die in my story is if they Absolutely Cannot Change. It's actually added some really interesting solutions into my storywriting now that I'm not killing off the villains, because their motivations and their ideals significantly influence the results of the story.

Like, let me explain. In one instance, the villain believes that the stronger force in life will always prevail. She's defeated by the protagonists, which is normally when the villain would be killed in, say, a Disney or Dreamworks movie (think HTTYD, Mulan, Tangled, Shrek, etc.) Since it fits with her ideals, though, she actually surrenders once she's been defeated because, to her, she was not the stronger force.

It does have an interesting consequence in that, sometimes, an abusive side villain doesn't die, either. (Before anyone asks, I am an abuse victim.) It's not a guarantee of either thing, and isn't even a guarantee that the villain will turn good, but I approached it more with the idea of "The victim doesn't need their abuser's apology to move on, and the abuser doesn't need their victim's forgiveness to change" because both of those would put the victim in a bad situation. Again, this comes back to the villain always dying being a Not Great Thing. The villains are still facing consequences--all of them lose reputation, their positions of power, etc.--but I think it's more a valuable lesson to be learned that yes, you can be an awful person, but you still have the capacity to change. Also, I think in some cases it's more fitting for the villains to have to face the consequences of their choices in life than it is for them to die but never have to deal with the repercussions that their victims have to.

Of course, then I get back to the case of the villains who will have to die. I do have a couple villains like this, and it's mostly that they have to die simply because they won't stop until they get what they want. I'm not a huge fan of the villain having to die (because, again, it's not a lesson I want to teach my audience), but I think in some ways it's a disrespect to them as a character to not kill them in some cases. Like, say a character is incredibly determined to do this One Thing, and at the second they almost have the One Thing, they suddenly give up. One of my other villains is kind of like this--he wants to stop this One Thing from happening, and to do that he has to kill everyone who could cause this One Thing, including our protagonist. It feels like a disrespect to him for him to get defeated by our protagonist and suddenly decide that he no longer wants to stop this One Thing when he's been working for years to get it, and is willing to die to stop it.

Anyways, I guess this kind of just boils down to my wanting to deal with the complexity of media and how it can affect people, while also trying to respect the decisions of my characters to the best of my ability. Hopefully it makes some sense. Oh, just to clarify, I'm not saying that "oh, every abuser can change", because that's not what happens in my works and the only reason the ones I'm thinking of got a chance was because I realized I was running into the same faults I was judging others for, and also it made for a more interesting storyline for them to change. I think it just does a disservice to the complexity of human nature to not take into account that people are, in and of themselves, very messy, and including the villains in that makes me feel like my works have more life to them. The three I mentioned all do face some pretty major consequences for their actions, but it does fit their drive--and also, at least two of them are abuse victims themselves, and I wanted to include the idea that even abuse victims who became abusers have the capacity to change. They all show shame for their actions, which is why they're allowed to in the first place.

Most of this was also inspired by Andrew Taint in that it made me want to write books featuring young, male protagonists who teenage and preteen boys could look up to as role models (these characters make mistakes, they apologize, they cry, they're messy and rough at the edges but still good people) because I saw some of the young men around me suffering from the thought process that they were evil and couldn't change, so there was no point in doing so. It's just important to me to establish how powerful the willingness to change is and using media is one way for me to do that. I totally understand how some of this could come off as really wrong, though, especially to anyone else who's an abuse victim.

Thanks for reading my rambling, though. I appreciate the time and effort you put into this blog a lot, because it makes it easier to talk to someone about my works when I can't necessarily do that in real life. Hope you have a lovely day!

First of all, it is no one's business whether or not you're an abuse victim. You are able to draw powerful life lessons from experiences you've never had if you do so respectfully, so the fact that you felt you had to share that you're an abuse victim... you don't. People need to get their heads out of their asses and stop acting like everyone else's lives are any of their business. You're allowed your privacy.

That said, this is a super complex topic and I personally feel that you're doing an amazing job at addressing it and that your thought processes on all of it are really on the right track. :) keep it up! I'm super proud of you and what you're trying to do and the lessons you're trying to portray. :) you're doing amazing work, so don't let others feeling any sort of way deter you. You will touch and reach people.

Every piece of writing on touchy topics will offend some people. It's just the nature of humanity. Just remember you're doing it for the people that you're going to help, not the ones that will yell about it. :)

Thank you for sharing.

So I've struggled a bit with differentiating morphing from physical shifting, I've mentioned it before. They both seem to lead into each other in ways where it'd seem silly to differentiate the two... and yet differentiating seems necessary, because fully morphing for us leads to something different from what fully physical shifting would entail.

I also realized that despite experiencing a transformation morph, I'm not really hyped about it in the same sense I am about the physical shifting. Transformations are okay, but the pseudoclinical nature of calling them that, and lack of supernaturality or spirituality really gets to us. Like, for some aspects, such as the muscle repositioning that might occur during one, we're aware that that can be psychological in origin, but it's still just supernatural to us. You know how some witches are aware of the science surrounding witchcraft, but still practice it anyway? Its not because they're "in denial" or whatnot, it's simply because they sense there is something supernatural there. That's how we feel about these things. A few experiences are transformations, but the rest? True supernatural experiences.

And two nights ago I finally figured out why we feel this way.

Morphing can lead into physical shifting in the same way mental shifting can (allegedly) lead to physical shifting, but morphing isn't shifting outright. You know how when Blaze's p-shifting guides were all the rage, people would say "mental shifting is the way to physical shifting", like it was a progression? That's not true, since many therians mental shift without once experiencing any physical effects, but if some do, that indicates that mental shifting helps encourage the animal side enough to come out. But we do it too, just with morphing instead of shifting. This implies that maybe the base is what is different, but the effects are still the same in select individuals.

It's kind of a tricky topic to explain, but basically my thinking is:

In individuals with a therian base, mental shifting (allegedly) leads to physical shifting in some individuals.

In individuals with a vakalomorphic base, morphing may (allegedly) lead to physical shifting in some individuals.

An altered state of mind may lead to physical shifting in some individuals or alternatively, "human" shifting.

Some of the odd transformation-type phenomena we experienced that seem to be either morphic or shifter is a result of being on the cusp of either, aka a transitional state.

We're just a vakalon and a shifter, then. I don't see our transformations as psychological or "unreal" necessarily, and there are plenty of reasons why I'd see my transformations as being real

Here's a graphic to explain what we're thinking, and hopefully not confuse you further:

The human-animal midpoint is where you are currently; in us it's the diode. In a therian, the cyan bar would be non-physical shifts such as mental shifting and phantom shifting, and as their midpoint moves towards animal or human they'd experience associated physical effects. Most will only experience human shifting -muscle cramps, tension, sensory and visual changes- but in those who could go farther they might actually start experiencing effects that seem beyond what most people would achieve, and more in line with their animal self. I theorize that the base (therianthropy, vakalon, etc.) has nothing to do with this, but simply allows for an altered state for a physical shift to happen.

I don't think you need an altered state to reach a physical shift - I've met plenty of shifters who've said they fully shifted without one- but I do think it helps "weaker" shifters. And of course, if you're the psychoanalyzing type you can speculate on the meaning of an altered state for shifters, but I'm not going to today lol.

I think this explains how we're seeing morphing and how it bleeds into shifting. (I'm kinda hoping this helps someone somewhere make sense of their own shifts lmfao)

Moon Day 26 in Cancer／Balsamic Moon

day’s V I B E – 6 of Pentacles Rx

Look at the 6 of Pentacles in reverse on this 26th moon day. All of that combined with today’s Moon being in Cancer, you might be dealing with a sense of limitation, caused by the people you surround yourself with. Family, unfortunately, is a cause of suffering and lacklustre in the lives of many. Roots, customs and traditions often are our first perceived sense of limitation.

A lot of people are often prisoners of their own perceived obstacles that have been placed around them by situations and environments. So natural was the process of creating these perceived limitations that we can’t help but think certain things are just the way they are. But that’s hardly ever true if your brain is creative enough to perceive Reality from a different angle. Therefore, it is important to have regular meditative moments for us to trace back the roots of our perceived limitations so we can then see that it’s more than possible to break those perceptions.

For this kind of process, unfortunately, I have to say, it requires a great deal of intelligence to be able to see through this type of illusion. Great IQ typically enables a person to see clearly the consequences of their choices! This is what having high IQ really means—that you are able to see and follow through some patterns. The higher the IQ, the more unique patterns you are able to perceive. Basically, it’s like that.

So, this should hopefully explain to you why some people, no matter how young or old and what their race or nationality may be, simply can’t get themselves out of their own bullshit pattern of thought, behaviour or belief. Their IQ isn’t high enough to help them see the error in the way they think!

Now, if you believe that you aren’t smart enough or don’t have high IQ, am I saying you’re doomed? Of course not. Work through that perceived limitation, babe, indeed! What can be done? Intelligence is an attribute that can be exercised, provided you try enough. Good exercise, good nutrition and plenty of calm and self-care could actually help you more than you realise. But anyway, get some magical supplements while you’re at it—

Aren’t there free reiki and subliminal tracks that work to increase intelligence and our capacity for thinking up creative solutions? Overachiever subs for getting perfect grades at school? Getting perfect marks without studying? The affirmations there can do a lot more than just getting you good grades😉

Trust in that. And if you’re committed enough, you’ll see just how quickly and magically your mind becomes freed from all of these low-vibing limitations that have absolutely nothing to do with your highest intended destiny!

Priestess of Clarity

m o o n a v i g a t i o n ♥︎

‘Balsamic Moon, Balsamic Moon, while you’re on your way to the abysmal oblivion, take my fears and anxieties with you. There are things, places and people I do not want as part of my Reality anymore—take them with you and free me from all these senses of imprisonment. Balsamic Moon, Balsamic Moon, I await your assistance and I say my thanks for all the help you bestow me. Take it away. Take it all away. I do not want these limitations anymore.’

I love your fic so much! I absolutely love reading people's fics of "niche" ideas (I mean that in a good way like unique! Hopefully it doesn't come off as rude!! D: ) Because you can really see it's their child and like a labor of love!! Also thank you so much for adding to 11/Rose we're starved for centric fics😔

Take all the time you need!🧡

(also pls tell me about your writing process if possible, I'm envious of how you keep things so connected in a long format!)

It did not come off as rude and thank you so much! With Doctor Who there’s infinite room for people’s niche ideas. It’s the greatest idea for a show in the whole world; you can do whatever you want! I think the best way I can describe what you’re asking about regarding my writing process is Notes. I make a big messy document on my laptop for everything I write, long or short, called “[Insert Title Here] – Notes (or Pre-Write)”. In it, I talk myself through what the story is about, what happens, the themes, and how it ends. There are sometimes charts and color coding but mostly it’s me babbling in word form until I have it all down. Then I can go through it later and stick to what I want to do without getting off-course or distracted!

Here’s an example of one of my Notes documents, for a Stranger Things fic specifically:

Obviously, not everything I first write down in the Notes babble has to be what happens—it’s just something I can look at when I write the story to remind myself what I wanted to do, and if the story takes a different direction while I’m writing it—because of the flow or because it makes more sense—then I do that instead. Notes is just me being organized instead of winging it. I used to wing it when I was thirteen and writing Phineas and Ferb fanfiction, the old glory days –

Then, when Notes has been vomited out, I move on to a pre-write, which is not always the traditional sense of the word you learn in schools – it’s just me writing a paragraph under each chapter title to explain what happens in the chapter and whose POV it’s from, and I mark like Balto on tree bark any strand of thought or prop or character arc I want to carry over or change in the next chapter(s). For example, with Lost and Rewritten, I marked in each chapter’s pre-write (with blue letters) where I wanted to mention the Void detector, because it’s part of what Rose is noticing and what Rose is missing, and it’s basically a physical prop for why she is/isn’t seeing what’s really going on. It’s less about what the actual Void detector is telling her and more to show where Rose is at mentally after Doomsday. If that makes sense? Anyway, that’s how I connect things! Notes. I used to just do whatever felt correct without Notes, but in my old age, a little more background direction is necessary. Thanks so much for the kind words and for reading what I write!

hi !! i love your hyunjin 2022 birthday gifset ❤️❤️ how did you do the dashed lines animation? i have been trying but i can’t figure it out

hi tysm! oh gosh it's kind of hard to explain and quite complicated and made me cry when i was making it LMAO but let me see if i can explain! first, for anyone wondering, this is the set anon is talking about.

this unsurprisingly got a bit long so i'll just put it under the cut!

if you want to replicate this, the first thing you'll want to do is make sure you're in the video timeline. i started with using the line tool and just. made a bunch of lines in a dotted pattern, then selected them all and merged them into one layer once i had them laid out how i wanted them.

then, you want to put a layer mask on that, and make sure you turn the little chain in between the mask and layer itself OFF. that makes it so you can move the layer mask separately from the layer itself.

then you'll want to go to the layer on the animation timeline, look at the dropdown menu for the lines layer, and you'll be using layer mask position. now. since you want to reveal something slowly. i cannot for the life of me remember what the line that indicates where you are in the gif is called. but you'll want to make sure you have that where you want the reveal to start, then press the clock next to "layer mask position." then, you'll want to erase the layer mask so it's sort of like you erased the line layer altogether. the animation will start there. then, drag the. red line/your place in the animation to the spot in the gif/animation that you want the reveal to be finished. then, switch to move tool, make sure you have the layer mask on the line layer selected, and drag it in whatever way you want to reveal the lines. depending on the shape of the line i either dragged it from left to right or up to down.

that's how you do the basic animation! knowing how to use the layer mask position animation thing opens up a whole world of creating tbh i think just about everything cool i've ever made involves that animation askdfjaksdkjsg, like anytime you see text revealing slowly on my gifs/gfx or anything of the like, that's how i did it.

if you want to sync it up across a bunch of gifs like i did in the set, though, that's harder asdfasdgasdg you'll want to make sure the gifs are the exact same amount of frames and the exact same speed. do not change the timing in frame timeline before you convert to video timeline or ANYTHING it will make your life a nightmare. just convert everything to video timeline right away....anyway...basically, you just want to make it so that the layer mask position animations are the exact same length and start exactly where the last gif's finished. there's probably an easier way to do this than the way i did it, which involved just eyeballing it, nothing ever syncing up properly because my internet was so bad and loaded everything at different times, and me crying SDGSDGSDG but if a visual would help, this is how the line layer of the oddinary panel (the very last one) looks:

i also used the layer mask position animation for the 2023 birthday set too, with the text and signatures. i had a much easier time this year LMAO

hopefully that all makes sense 😭 and i hope this helps anyone that reads it make some cool new stuff! 🥳

ENEMIES TO LOVERS MY FAVORITE 🤩🤩🤩 anyways im excited to see how he sees things — esp bc taeyong hasn’t been super elaborated on yet? so im really interested in seeing the direction you take w jeno because the issue of him and mark is one i also really have enjoyed reading… like so far, it kinda seems to me that on one hand, you have a child that was neglected/ignored, but then on the other, you might have one that was smothered with expectations or smth like that… taeyong clearly fucked his sons up 💀💀

like jeno is obviously so kind and caring here (like when he and mc broke up), but he’s also capable of being incredibly cruel (and this also makes me wonder about what mark has got going on, because so far, he’s responded to like EVERY conflict in an extremely mature way, so is that just how he is or is he hiding something else?) — tbh he and mc made quite the pair, because jeno also is suffering from a huge amount of insecurity

also i just read the thing you said abt mc ghosting mark and him slowly giving up…? 😭😭 ill cry i need a happy ending for my poor fragile heart

also operation: true love is only really similar in a very general sense..? the main character is dating someone and he’s cheating w what’s basically her surrogate sister, she ends up kinda getting back at him by hanging around this guy who her surrogate sister wanted, but she’s also friends w this other guy who is also into her… and there’s this whole odd system about how many people like you (how many hearts you have..?), and the main character has 0/0 which can’t possibly be right, but that thing appears to have basically been lost as a plot device..? idrk i haven’t caught myself up on it in a while but the art is really cute!!

anyways i’m kind of behind in one of my courses and my professor was shockingly understanding about it 😭😭 i was so scared she was going to think i was lazy and stupid because she’s soooo smart and kind of intense, but she was so so so nice to me 🥲🥲🥲 gave me advice and everything

i’m so happy you’re excited about jeno’s series!! it’s not even one that i’ve thought about massively but i can’t wait to get fully into it. i have rough ideas here and there. but you’re right, you will be seeing a lot more of taeyong in his (hopefully) as he’s the son he supposedly has a “good” relationship with. you will also be seeing more of mark and jeno, their journey, struggles and challenges they will face as brothers. i also love their dynamic, it’s so layered and so complex !! <3

and i’m glad you picked up on jeno’s dual sides!! it’s line he switches meticulously. he does have a kind heart but he can be so rude and cutthroat, he’s not good at controlling his anger or biting his tongue. he’s the type of guy who doesn’t think before he speaks and it gets him in a lot of trouble or just awkward situations.

and :(((( is all i can say

also thank you for telling me that!!! it sounds super interesting. i fucking love the ost so i might have to give that a go. thank you so much for explaining it to me, it sounds super interesting and unique.

oh :((( your teacher being understanding though is everything. honestly everything will be fine, just put extra work in and try to organise study groups and ask for clarification and help from your teacher and you will get there!! put a lot of effort in now (if you’re already putting in loads then put in even more) and you will thank yourself for it<33 all that you need is a light bulb moment.

also loving loving loving these long and lengthy asks. please make sure you send me more and join my discord please 🥺🫶

reflections n stuff

Post about me trying to explain some of the projects I got going on. Hopefully, it makes sense lol.

I guess to start, most of my writing and projects are…comedic? I just want to embody tomfoolery. Some of the projects I was creating with my coauthor, I've mentioned them before. (LOL if you saw my rant that one time), (and it wasn't just once my ass can not stop mentioning it) (yes I'm mad). They basically stopped contributing so ALL the projects were put on hiatus. Yeah :/ but I refuse to let all those years of hard work sit inside a Google doc never to see the light of day again. So here we go. 

TSO22 (Completed)

Hiii its me and my story. Titled semi-censored bcuz i uploaded it to YouTube and you can literally search it up and I'm not ready for that yet.

Anyways My second short film!!!! With real actors and a production team so exciting!! It's about a witch who seeks revenge on some children who wronged her! She casts a spell on a toy plushie and makes it come to life. She sends the toy to kill Fuzzy Lilypill, Large Plumjum, and Final Baddie (judging by their names you can tell this is extra goofy). Honestly one of the best things I've ever done, it was so much fun. Even though the film is hella cringe (kind of the point) it makes me laugh…like a lot and that's all that matters.

I need to tell everyone about the top-tier advertising like the way everyone pitched in to help was wild. We had lil signs and business cards and everything! The advertising was how I was able to book the actor who played Final Baddie!!

And ugh the bloopers in this film are so silly they were a lot of them bcuz nobody here has ever starred in a film before and it was a little awkward at first. But once everyone understood that this was just for fun and not really that serious we got some good content.

(Now I also need to do some complaining like I literally had to get down on my hands and knees and beg people to join. It was not fun. Why doesn't anyone want to create things anymore so sad) 

The Internship (Partial)

Yes yes yes all me. This was a script that I had written for another short film! It's self-explanatory.

The Killer finds out that the internship they applied for was given to one of their classmates! This can not be! Filled with rage the killer kills that bitch and the victim's friend group because of jealousy and whatnot. Since the first pick is…well dead, the killer gets a callback and now the internship is theirs! Wow what a happy ending. I’m actually living for this script :)

I did multiple rewrites and created some google form sign-up sheets for people to join the project.

created a storyboard of the film (will search for it later).

And I started creating a custom score for it as well.

Unfortunately, no one wanted to join :( so it never came to life. That being said, once I find an animation app and learn how to animate, it's over for you hoes. And I guess this goes for all my future films lmao. (unless I actually find people to star in them praying I do tbh). 

Beastly Bordello (wip)

This was a project we (me and my coauthor) started in middle school. It went through lots of rewrites like Jesus Christ. The first pass was garbage. I was crying when I reread it omg.

Anyways. How do I say this with the least amount of spoilers? There are 3 “books”, The first book draft is “complete”, we have the whole thing outlined, the first 2 chapters ready, and just need to fill out the meat of the texts a bit more.

This part of the story follows the human characters. We have the main character Debbie Smith, she is basically a bum loser 😷 and everyone hates her (it’s giving depressed!abused!timid! reader). We have Meredith Castaño who is like her cool best friend 😎 (I've drawn her with Dina. A side character who may or may not be her boo). And then we have Becky Maurice, Hanna Peters, and Lisa Blake (We call them BHL) . They are like the mean girl trio 🤬. Book 1 is meant to be a typical 2000s high school movie. Dare I say a “coming of age story” smh.

Becky is out for revenge and will stop at nothing to make Debbie's life a living hell (we are just bullying Debbie for 200+ pages).

On top of that, we discover that Debbie's homelife is not so good 😞 with her abusive parents 😭 and terminally sick sister, how will Debbie move on to the next phase of her life as she approaches high school graduation and adulthood 😱?

Omg the girls are camping! How fun! (totally not a slasher movie waiting to happen and 100% does not have a musical mid-way through).

People are dying 🪦!! Kids are going missing!?!?! Does this have anything to do with Debbie’s mysterious nightmares 🧠!? She's always had them, as she’s gotten older they’ve become more frequent, almost every day, and she even starts seeing 👀and hearing 👂 things while she's awake?

That's so scary. Oh nooooo she knows doom approaches and she is powerless to stop it :( silly silly complicit Debbie.

Like damn her life couldn't get any worse…and then BAM bitch it does!!! OMG supernatural 👹tingz and bloods🩸and crips 🔵 murder 🔪and oh shoot people are being kidnapped. Yikes.

This is book 1, Book 2 and 3 are not written yet (and honestly might not be written as I do not have my coauthor helping and it is a very ambitious project). As I said, we do have supernatural characters. The creatures. I'm pretty sure you've seen Octavia at least once? Maybe. We have our big baddies like The Lord, The Madam, The Master, The Empress, The Doctor, The Scientist, etc. Then we have our “good” creatures? They are just mf who were also kidnapped, like Alexa, Alexis, Mackenzie, Amelia etc. damn that's a lot of names that start with A.

This is reaching the spoiler zone so not sure if I should go farther. Anyway they work together to try and escape and find out where they are, why they were kidnapped and try to get home etc etc. More death and murder, staples in my work :P

This project has the most progress on it, if you go into the Beastly Bordello tag you can find some of the character designs. Not all tho because a lot of them…were meant to be drawn by the coauthor and I never got themmmmmmmm 🙄🙄.

I like really REALLY wanna continue this but gotdamn it's a lot of work and I get so discouraged easily <- lying my ass was carrying this book by myself for like 3 years.

If anything I'll design the rest of the creatures by myself. That's all I see myself doing, for now, oof. 

Beastly Bordello: The Musical (Completed)

LMAOOO THIS WAS A PROJECT I HAD TO DO FOR CLASS!!!

I had to make a jukebox musical thing and I chose the wonderful Emilie Autumn. The script is short, just around 36 pages and it’s like a transition between book 2 and book 3.

It follows The Madam and she is processing the new shipment of humans she just got in.

Which would be our lovely main characters (Debbie, Meredith, BHL, etc) and we are given a little tour of the brothel (is not actually a brothel we just call it that, think of it more as a farm, a meat farm).

We meet the other characters like The Master and those lil goat mfs (main characters in the original original beastly bordello). We also get a brief introduction to our main creatures (monsters) like Mackenzie, Jia, Isla, Amelia etc (you’ve seen them before).

They then get tagged by The Doctor and The Scientist (I love those gay niggas)

And then everyone gets split up and Debbie finally meets Octavia.

What do people say? OOC? I think that means out of character? Because we have to make everything fit the song, so they just be saying stuff at one point. But shhhhhhhhhhh it's okay.

Anyway, It's just more foolishness and camp and because it's a musical it gets stupid. But I love it either way. That's what I aim for yessir, like wow something beastly bordello related that I actually completed. Wild. 

Adventure to Find Jelly (wip)

 Hiii another middle school project, I was working on this with my coauthor. Okok let's see how do i explain this with no spoilers. This is apart of our “sentient object” universe.

It takes place in an apartment and the family has gone away to visit relatives so now every object can come to life and do what they want.

The story follows Peanut Butter (PB) 🥜, a quiet and kind jar of peanut butter who is tired 🥱 of living the simple life. And decides to sneak out of the cabinet to go to the club (inside a closet) and that day he meets Jelly🪼(she a jar of jelly but they ain’t have the right emojis)

She is the new girl in town (the family got her from the grocery store before they left). They instantly fall in love😍 and Omg this would be like his first girlfriend, PB finally got bitches 😤.

They spend a lot of time doing couple stuff 😘 bcuz PB never got to do any of that before. Jelly is very sweet and loving 🧐 but…something is off about her…just a little 😨.

PB doesn't seem to notice nor care. But his cooler 🍆 asshole brother (who is super overprotective) tells him not to trust Jelly and leave her🙅🏿.

PB’s parents are angry 😡 and disgusted 🤮 that PB would disobey them and go to the club🕺🏿. And spend a lot of his time outside the cabinet instead of staying at home and being a good son 🤓.

PB is tired of people thinking he aint that guy 🥲 and he decided to run away 🏃🏿 to live a life with jelly.

But in a twist of events 👃, when PB arrives at Jelly’s cabinet he discovers it trashed 🗑️💢!!! And jelly is missing 😱😱😱😱😱!!

He tries to tell the police 🚔but they don't believe him, they’ve never heard of anyone called jelly 🪼 before.

PB is confused but figures out he has to do this on his own 🦸🏿‼️, he has to go on an adventure to find jelly.

It's very cheesy but like my other stories it involved murder and drama. So it's not uneventful . Hmmm we outlined 10 chapters. And started outlining the sequel book. But we never actually started writing any of it.

I’m pretty sure some of you have seen jelly before. And possibly PB because I was just given his design a couple days ago. I'm definitely going to continue making art of them, and hopefully, we’ll get Sunbutter soon. But I'm not sure about writing out the rest of the story. It's a lil problematic.

Being A Fruit (wip)

Middle school project strikes again and yes you guessed it my coauthor was involved as well. Another story taking place in our “Sentient Object” universe.

From the title you can tell this series was going to involve all the fruit characters. Bananas, strawberries, apples, etc and I think I designed a good portion of the characters too. But y'all when I say drama. I mean DRAMA. Like “how to get away with murder” type drama. This story is batshit. And it's 10x more stupid because it involves lil fruits.

I'm going to quote this for you: our strawberry character Rosette is traumatized because she “watched entire family get chopped into a fruit salad”. And then we have our villain who “loves to abduct baby fruits”.

Besides character bg we don't have any chapters drafted. But to be fair we were going to make this into a mock podcast. Like the character fruits were going to call in and tell their stories, and the radio host would have to piece together what happened. And if someone stopped calling in then they got killed oop.

Because this is like a one-off, if anything has a chance to make a comeback it's this one. Idk if anyone would want this tho besides me. Because I will go crazy in the google doc and write this myself. This story is wild. 

When Two Erasers Touch

Damn did I peak at middle school? Another coauthor and me classic. This was I think the first book in our “Sentient Object” universe.

It is about lesbian erasers. Our first love story! They find each other bcuz their humans bring them to school and they chill inside a desk or something. I think we only wrote 2 chapters for this. We love a trendsetter though.

I don't think our two erasers Jika and Marei will make a comeback. But omg I am just rereading the chapters and is soo melodramatic!!! These lil erasers are going through it. Ok, I won't make any promises but…maybe we might do like a throwback chapter. Just once. Maybe. I'm not really a fan of Romance but It's so dramatic I can't even describe it. 

The Hecatomb Trilogy (wip)

Finally! Something recent and does not involve my coauthor. This is one of the stories that came to me in a dream. It's hard to recall because my dumb ass didn't type or write down all the information.

I drafted the introduction and the dialogue 10/10. It's a horror movie (I say movie but it's a book bcuz everything is a movie to me). Slasher movie, of course, just a lot of carnage and ridiculous stuff. I don't have much but I have a note on the side of the google doc, that says “3 survivors bond throughout the story, connecting over their trauma and become a polycule.”

So… I have priorities lol. The first movie takes place in the neighborhood and just follows everyday people, dying you know. The second movie is meant to take place in a hospital following the survivors. And the third and final film is meant to reveal who the killer is and their backstory.

From what I have written it just says the killer is dressed in all-black leather and is super strong ;P Damn now I kinda wanna pick this back up again and put some thought into it. I see the potential ngl. We'll see. Who knows. 

Adherence (wip)

All me this time. Another story that came to me in a dream. And I think everyone needs to write a gay vampire story once in their life. This one is mine. I guess it classifies as a slice of life? It's just a cute lil story about the “last” vampire adjusting to the modern world and falling in love with his would-be victim.

They do things like go to the corner store <3 and get robbed afterwards LMAOOO. The MC has to chase a naked vampire around the apartment bcuz that nigga is scared of the shower at his big age... The Vamp fucking loves modern tech and is thoroughly entertained by it. His favourite is those little toy bears that you find at like CVS and u press a button and they start dancing. The vamp meets his neighbor and she does his nails.

Just a lot of shenanigans and also of course killing. I know I keep talking about the dialogue but my god it's working my pussy out.

Damn…is this my humor? Idk why I'm surprised. Hmmmm I would want to complete some of my other projects before I start working on this. But who knows. 

(SU pearl and pink diamond fanfic) wip

I don't wanna claim this. I wrote a pearl and pink diamond fanfic on wattpad back in the day. And I actually got one of my SU friends to read it. It was great. I don't remember the name tho but I wrote like 8 chapters of it and I'm proud I made it that far. Scared to actually read my old writing so I will not be searching for it. Just know it is out there.
