Merry Fairy - Journal? Writing App? - Reviewed
I have had this game on my Wishlist for a while as soon as I heard about it. I didn't realize it was going to be a writing, journaling, and scrapbooking application. I legitimately thought this was going to be a game. I'm even more excited to truly know what it is. I'm a writer by passion and hobby. I've always wrote and though less and less people are reading and prefer watching this is something I feel I have mastered and enjoy doing. I take pride in everything I write (or type for that matter) This is something I've been looking for as a writer and creative for a very long time.
For one price, it is nice to have something you only need to buy once instead of buying a subscription with lets say Penzu which is what I originally did but it started getting so expensive I had to let go. I then started using Canva Pro for it but it's just not the same to journal in something like Canva. I loved using my IPad pro at one point and GoodNotes and ProCreate but honestly I dropped that so quickly. I love regular pen and paper but I am a really slow writer. I prefer typing if possible. So this fits the bill, literally!
To learn more about the application, who it's for, how much it is, pros and cons, please continue reading below.
What is Merry Fairy?
Releasing on 7/10/25 - 2 days ago it is a cozy and relaxing journaling and scrapbooking application. I do not place it underneath a gaming category. However, you can find it on Steam right now at a discount for $8.99.
Who is The Application For?
Honestly, anyone, but if you're looking for specifics look below I made a list of who this would fit the most;
Cozy Gamers
Writers
Scrapbookers
Creatives/Artistic types
Teachers
Those who need an outlet to let out their emotions
Anyone looking for a safe space
Pros:
There are so many scrapbooking elements to discover while clicking around. All of those then get saved to your journal so you can use it.
There are great tutorial resources and learning how to use Merry Fairy. The above prompt and fox person comes up every time it teaches you something about this application.
There is a Pomodoro's timer that I didn't know about until I clicked the random stained glass window.
There is a lot to do and a lot to create, I easily spent 3 hrs starting from 12 AM - 3 AM just writing and getting the pages just the way I wanted it.
There is a music player that plays really upbeat music for the most part, there are a few that are primarily background noises but a nice selection of background music to write (type) too. I LOVE the music by the way! Very fantasy like.
You can freely move any and ALL of the elements you collect to decorate your journal pages with.
Cons:
Lacking more background sounds and music
I wish there were more fonts that could be used while in the journal.
When writing text, it's weird the cursor disappears randomly, you can't get it back unless you left click. I was so confused and accidentally deleted my elements I collected to place in the journal by accident. Yes, it's most likely user error, however, it might've been nice to have the heads up about left clicking prior while in the tutorial itself.
Wasn't sure where to place this one because it's a mixture of a pro and a con and it may bother some people so I placed it here as a potential con. You can save each entry, but, when you save it it's saved as a "html, webpage" it can only be opened by web browser. To save it by image you can right click while it's opened in the webpage to do so or take a screenshot, but this can be a little annoying. That's if you don't want to just keep it as a webpage. Honestly, I myself do not worry about this too much, but it would've been nice if it saved as a JPEG, PNG, PDF, or .doc file. Html is a little strange and I was kind of scratching my head with the option choice for this. It saves like this;
Conclusion:
For me, this was exactly what I needed and something I've been looking for at a great cost. If you are a writer like me and need a distraction free environment with background music, cozy vibes, and a beautiful little scenery to get you in the writing mood this would be the perfect application for you. It's a safe space, it can be used online and offline. All the feature are meant to be used without being online. I enjoy the illustration of every element, the ability to click around and discover new things as you write. It just feels like you're on one big journey of self discovery. There are so many quotes and prompts to help you write and explore yourself on a deeper level. At the beginning you get letters from the creator and it just feels so personal. I highly enjoy this application but feel more can be done and added.
I would give this a fair 7.5/10 - it's great for your basic writing needs and offers a lot for $8.99 but for regular price after the sale price which we don't know yet I just feel it could be a bit more perfected. If you don't mind some of the cons then this is the perfect writing/scrapbooking application for you.

Tips for writing those gala scenes, from someone who goes to them occasionally:
Generally you unbutton and re-button a suit coat when you sit down and stand up.
You’re supposed to hold wine or champagne glasses by the stem to avoid warming up the liquid inside. A character out of their depth might hold the glass around the sides instead.
When rich/important people forget your name and they’re drunk, they usually just tell you that they don’t remember or completely skip over any opportunity to use your name so they don’t look silly.
A good way to indicate you don’t want to shake someone’s hand at an event is to hold a drink in your right hand (and if you’re a woman, a purse in the other so you definitely can’t shift the glass to another hand and then shake)
Americans who still kiss cheeks as a welcome generally don’t press lips to cheeks, it’s more of a touch of cheek to cheek or even a hover (these days, mostly to avoid smudging a woman’s makeup)
The distinctions between dress codes (black tie, cocktail, etc) are very intricate but obvious to those who know how to look. If you wear a short skirt to a black tie event for example, people would clock that instantly even if the dress itself was very formal. Same thing goes for certain articles of men’s clothing.
Open bars / cash bars at events usually carry limited options. They’re meant to serve lots of people very quickly, so nobody is getting a cosmo or a Manhattan etc.
Members of the press generally aren’t allowed to freely circulate at nicer galas/events without a very good reason. When they do, they need to identify themselves before talking with someone.
#late night thoughts#are these helpful at all?#obv these aren’t applicable to every gala scene#galas#writing tips#writing guide#these don’t apply as much in Gotham obvs#but that’s because it’s Gotham

i have chronic pain. i am neurodivergent. i understand - deeply - the allure of a "quick fix" like AI. i also just grew up in a different time. we have been warned about this.
15 entire years ago i heard about this. in my forensics class in high school, we watched a documentary about how AI-based "crime solving" software was inevitably biased against people of color.
my teacher stressed that AI is like a book: when someone writes it, some part of the author will remain within the result. the internet existed but not as loudly at that point - we didn't know that AI would be able to teach itself off already-biased Reddit threads. i googled it: yes, this bias is still happening. yes, it's just as bad if not worse.
i can't actually stop you. if you wanna use ChatGPT to slide through your classes, that's on you. it's your money and it's your time. you will spend none of it thinking, you will learn nothing, and, in college, you will piss away hundreds of thousands of dollars. you will stand at the podium having done nothing, accomplished nothing. a cold and bitter pyrrhic victory.
i'm not even sure students actually read the essays or summaries or emails they have ChatGPT pump out. i think it just flows over them and they use the first answer they get. my brother teaches engineering - he recently got fifty-three copies of almost-the-exact-same lab reports. no one had even changed the wording.
and yes: AI itself (as a concept and practice) isn't always evil. there's AI that can help detect cancer, for example. and yet: when i ask my students if they'd be okay with a doctor that learned from AI, many of them balk. it is one thing if they don't read their engineering textbook or if they don't write the critical-thinking essay. it's another when it starts to affect them. they know it's wrong for AI to broad-spectrum deny insurance claims, but they swear their use of AI is different.
there's a strange desire to sort of divorce real-world AI malpractice over "personal use". for example, is it moral to use AI to write your cover letters? cover letters are essentially only templates, and besides: AI is going to be reading your job app, so isn't it kind of fair?
i recently found out that people use AI as a romantic or sexual partner. it seems like teenagers particularly enjoy this connection, and this is one of those "sticky" moments as a teacher. honestly - you can roast me for this - but if it was an actually-safe AI, i think teenagers exploring their sexuality with a fake partner is amazing. it prevents them from making permanent mistakes, it can teach them about their bodies and their desires, and it can help their confidence. but the problem is that it's not safe. there isn't a well-educated, sensitive AI specifically to help teens explore their hormones. it's just internet-fed cycle. who knows what they're learning. who knows what misinformation they're getting.
the most common pushback i get involves therapy. none of us have access to the therapist of our dreams - it's expensive, elusive, and involves an annoying amount of insurance claims. someone once asked me: are you going to be mad when AI saves someone's life?
therapists are not just trained on the book, they're trained on patient management and helping you see things you don't see yourself. part of it will involve discomfort. i don't know that AI is ever going to be able to analyze the words you feed it and answer with a mind towards the "whole person" writing those words. but also - if it keeps/kept you alive, i'm not a purist. i've done terrible things to myself when i was at rock bottom. in an emergency, we kind of forgive the seatbelt for leaving bruises. it's just that chat shouldn't be your only form of self-care and recovery.
and i worry that the influence chat has is expanding. more and more i see people use chat for the smallest, most easily-navigated situations. and i can't like, make you worry about that in your own life. i often think about how easy it was for social media to take over all my time - how i can't have a tiktok because i spend hours on it. i don't want that to happen with chat. i want to enjoy thinking. i want to enjoy writing. i want to be here. i've already really been struggling to put the phone down. this feels like another way to get you to pick the phone up.
the other day, i was frustrated by a book i was reading. it's far in the series and is about a character i resent. i googled if i had to read it, or if it was one of those "in between" books that don't actually affect the plot (you know, one of those ".5" books). someone said something that really stuck with me - theoretically you're reading this series for enjoyment, so while you don't actually have to read it, one would assume you want to read it.
i am watching a generation of people learn they don't have to read the thing in their hand. and it is kind of a strange sort of doom that comes over me: i read because it's genuinely fun. i learn because even though it's hard, it feels good. i try because it makes me happy to try. and i'm watching a generation of people all lay down and say: but i don't want to try.
#spilled ink#i do also think this issue IS more complicated than it appears#if a teacher uses AI to grade why write the essay for example.#<- while i don't agree (the answer is bc the essay is so YOU learn) i would be RIPSHIT as a student#if i found that out.#but why not give AI your job apps? it's not like a human person SEES your applications#the world IS automating in certain ways - i do actually understand the frustration#some people feel where it's like - i'm doing work here. the work will be eaten by AI. what's the point#but the answer is that we just don't have a balance right now. it just isn't trained in a smart careful way#idk. i am pretty anti AI tho so . much like AI. i'm biased.#(by the way being able to argue the other side tells u i actually understand the situation)#(if u see me arguing "pro-chat'' it's just bc i think a good argument involves a rebuttal lol)#i do not use ai . hard stop.

'the F1 movie needed to have Brad Pitt fuck his female engineer because there needed to be sexual tension!' BORING. If they wanted sexual tension they should've made it historically accurate and true to real life and had Brad Pitt fuck his teammate

It's a rough night at Purgatory Hall. Your sobs into the familiar cotton of a black turtleneck prove as much. Warmth invades from every side as Solomon's body cocoons around yours on the bed, arms tightening ever so slightly with every hiccup that escapes you.
"Shh... You're alright," he whispers so softly. "Everything's going to be alright."
Lithe fingers trace around the shell of your ear as soft lips press to your hairline, doing anything he can to soothe you. It breaks his heart to see you so upset. With every mumbled, and barely coherent, stressor in your life, Solomon yearns to right every last wrong. To rid everything that gets in your way of a happy life. But so many of your problems are completely out of his control -- no matter how powerful he may be. He has to hope that the resilient nature he admires so much in humanity, that he admires in you, will prevail.
The only thing he can control is by remaining determined to do right by you. You came to him for his comfort, and by God he will kiss every last tear away, hold you until his eyes become bloodshot, whisper reassurances until his voice goes hoarse, and be the one constant in your life that believes in your future.
#to anyone who needs it right now 💜#tried to keep the issues vague so it's applicable to everyone but yeah i'm bothered tonight#sorry for the quality i just needed to write something comforting#so much love from me and i hope everyone's doing well#obey me#obey me solomon#obey me solomon x reader#jo writes

I think there is something so... paralyzing about questions of existence in regards to the specific scenario of being in a simulation. Especially if you take the reader insert archetype or, just romantic feelings itself into consideration. Once it's revealed to you that everything that you've known to be true, everything you've fought for and everything you've treasured do not exist and moreover, you are simply pawns in a game you want nothing to do with — would you not wonder, were everything that you felt and thought throughout it all, also programmed by someone else?
Love is a special emotion. It's adhesive, messy, sickly sweet and hard to emulate artificially. Some might even say it's something that transcends the word ‘emotion’. I'm not exactly a romantic though so, I'll stick to my previous definition. You can nurture love but, the direction of its growth will always be unpredictable. If left unchecked, love can become a cage, or a puppeteer. Fundamentally, it is one of the factors of life that make us question how much control we actually have over ourselves, even without the notion of a simulated world at play.
The more intense love is, the more agony it brings. People that've reached this far are prone to questioning every facet of their predicament to begin with. Throw in the fact that they are, actually not real? So then, was all of this orchestrated too? And for what, to satisfy the boredom of an apathetic audience seeking refuge from reality, the reality that is far, far out of their reach? Are they not even capable of feeling love?
Not everyone is Anaxa, expecting the unexpected and being able to absorb the weight of such a news calmly. In his case, even if the questions do pass by, he could resolutely say that even if Amphoreus is an extrapolation, it has already passed the stage from wherein the characters surpassed the original programming long ago.
But then again, not everyone is Anaxa. So, think about it, think about how harrowing it must feel to have the entire basis of your existence questioned, judged and torn apart from within. To have to wonder if the person you'd previously believed to be the centerpiece of your system, all just another hand's whimsy? To have to confront the nauseating questions of whether you truly have autonomy over anything.
#since the cat's out of the bag now i can finally discuss this#it's been simmering in my mind ever since i saw the theories back in the start of Amphoreus#this concept is applicable to all chrysos heirs but i'll be tagging the ones that i write for#phainon#hsr#hsr phainon#mydei#anaxa#hsr mydei#hsr anaxa#mydeimos#phainon x reader#anaxa x reader#mydei x reader#yandere phainon#yandere mydei#yandere anaxa#yandere phainon x reader#yandere mydei x reader#yandere anaxa x reader#hsr spoilers#hsr x reader#yandere hsr x reader#amphoreus#honkai star rail

thinking about tackling and squeezing the living daylights out of lycaon or wriothesley ughh; running up to them, headbutting them on the chest, pressing your ear to where their heart is nestled, crushing their ribs and plant a clawing grip on their back. you can try all you might but they won't topple beyond a slight jostle or a small step back. their arms will find a secure place on your shoulder; a beat of a startled breath before it's replaced by an incredulous chuff. the same arms follow suit and return the gesture, pressed gently on your lower back. they smell like tea and something clean and nice and warm. it's half part of pleasant and ridiculous, how they let you, inexorable and arbitrary, indulge in their presence like this. when you giggle from the charming absurdity and your breath tickles the skin of their neck, you can feel the vibration of their hum, their throat against your nuzzling cheek.
you both stay like that for a while; life is good.
GHHHHSOBSSSS GENTLEMEN ONE CHANCE

no sleep, no coffee🌛
Just like the night before I slept less than 4 hours tonight, yay…Our coffee machine didn’t feel like doing its job at 6.30am (me too, my dear, me too), so the only thing that made me feel somewhat alive was todays sunset. Since the term is almost over we’re not doing too much in classes anymore. Gladly that means I can more or less relax until February. Except for homework and teachers getting on my nerves (my tutor huh). Who didn’t get on my nerves though was a friend of mine! They asked if I could give them feedback on their writing samples for their uni applications and I really enjoyed reading and reviewing it! It was a mix of short stories, text excerpts and poems; their last poem was my personal favourite :)
Now: watching soccer match, hoping to sleep >4h

Etho looking up is what gave the game away.
He had that look in his eyes. Cautious and alert and just the right amount of paranoid. He opened his mouth to call a warning—
Tango was moving before he even processed anything else and the explosion that would have killed him instead just launched him forward, where he hit the grass and rolled up onto one knee, reaching for a sword he didn’t have.
Bdubs shouted something. Cub groaned.
Those damned red names couldn’t give him a moment’s peace—
Tango blinked. Red names? This was Hermitcraft. It had been months since the last life game.
But he looked up to the top of his now-ruined cliff and there was Cub, another TNT minecart in hand and Tango swore he saw a flash of red.
It was gone as quickly as it appeared. Bdubs negotiated a fishing tournament, Cub ran off and reappeared in brightly dyed leather armor and a fish mask (that obscured his eyes, Tango noted). Scar joined them and there was peace and fishing for a while.
He sat on the grass next to Etho, his tail flicking lazily through the air as he watched his bobber. Etho had his feet in the water and looked to the casual observer like the picture of serene.
Tango wasn’t the casual observer.
He’d seen Etho sit just like this on the edge of a fortress of snow, dark oak tree at his back, watching the world around him. Later, he’d joined Etho on a narrow bridge a hundred blocks in the sky, watching the ants below plant wheat on a dumb bridge. And most recently, they’d sat by a river and listened to Bdubs chatter in the distance, and waited for the chaos to resume.
“Your fishing rod is smoking.” Etho said softly.
Tango dropped it and… yep. There were clear marks from his claws burned into the handle.
Etho splashed a bit of water onto it and the smoke was whisked away on the wind.
“Whoops,” Tango tried to laugh it off and reached into a pocket for his fireproof gloves. “You know, fishing is intense and all that.”
Etho looked at him for a long, soul-exposing minute. Then he turned back to his bobber and said, “This isn’t the life games, ya know.”
“I know—“
“But whatever is going on, it’s not that different.” Etho finished, his voice at a volume for only the two of them to hear. “And if Cub’s already breaking out TNT minecarts around people’s builds…”
“We’ve been thrown right into the end game.” Tango agreed. “What can we even do about it, though?”
“The exact same thing you do on the life series. Survive. Keep on your toes. Distract and deflect when you can, run when you can’t. Have back up plans and alliances and know that at the end of the day, the only person you can trust is yourself.”
“That’s…” Tango let out a breath. His attention had long since left fishing. “How have you not won yet?”
“I don’t know. I certainly deserve it,” Etho laughed.
“Humble today, aren’t you?”
The two of them fell into silence. Bdubs and Scar were bickering somewhere behind them, something about horses. Scar laughed loudly and Tango wasn’t sure if it was his imagination, or if the laugh was a little more maniacal than usual.
He glanced over his shoulder to where Cub was standing, fishing rod in hand, and posture stiff. With the mask, it was impossible to tell where his attention was focused.
A fish tugged on his line and Tango started to reel it in, feeling it fight against the pull. He let out a low breath, settling his fire. “I think I need to start carrying a sword.”
Etho just hummed in agreement.
#inspired by tango's stream today#hermitcraft#hermitfic#life series#glitch writes#glitch talks#so uhhh.... cubs really losing it huh#people in tango's chat were joking that this was his application to join the life series#and i got struck by the vibes#tango absolutely knew what he was doing when he did his angry huff at cub blowing up his terrain too#tangotek#ethoslab#cubfan135

i know i'm not saying anything new but, sometimes ppl just don't think about things like transmisogyny as being systems. like, they'll just see it as hatred, descrimination, disgust, etc., and i think this allows for people to think things like "well, i don't hate trans women. i even have friends who are trans women. i'm not a trans misogynist! i want them to have equal rights and be treated fairly!" and then they'll continue to hold very trans misogynistic beliefs, openly express them and have those beliefs go unexamined so easily bc trans misogyny is largely considered the norm, unfortunately.
