I know I’m not the first person to say this but fandom’s seeming need to shove any character dynamic into some kind of familial role (siblings, father-son, mother-daughter etc) increasingly feels just as stifling and dismissive of platonic love as making every relationship romantic does.

I dunno man do you view all of your close friends as siblings cause I sure don’t. and I definitely don’t think of them as parents

Im probably missing out on so much shit for not being on Twitter but by god I refuse to go on there. I think it would kill me.

Is the owl house fandom more active on there?

[alwayscraftynight]

one day when the entire fandom is probably dead I'm gonna make a vee fursuit

Not being able to regulate my body temperature sucks. Cause it's like "I can't draw" why? Too hot. Brain don't work.

Maybe I’m biased, but I’d rather you take my opinion as someone who wants to be a “writer”. You, and the other person that spoke about their fic (oneguyjay???), write very well from just the conversation I read, and I really hope that the you continue to pursue writing because it seems like a talent for you two.

:') this is so nice dude

(This is my brother's blog say hiiiii 👋)

Even after all this time I STILL don't have a consistent way of drawing jacob. Like if you asked me to doodle him id be like "fuck" because honest to god he is so fuckig hard to draw. I think I'm gonna work on that tonight.

I was once again tempted to click the show blocked blog button and am now pissed off. Such is life

Hi finally following up on that promise to write to you. Once again I’m glad to see you’re doing well, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t a little worried when you went radio silent. I’m sorry to hear about your living situation, I don’t have anything I could say that I feel would help.

I just wanna say thank you for being so outspoken about what you’re passionate about, particularly Jacob. There were many times that I thought that Jacob was a remnant of my childish past that I needed to move on from in order to grow up but I’ve come to realize that bringing to life all the daydreams I’ve had of this fictional man through writing and pencil drawings brings me genuine happiness. 

I��ve projected my own issues of not wanting to grow up onto Jacob, connecting them to him being a conspiracy theorist where he pushes his loved ones away, where he doesn’t take care of himself physically or mentally, where he downward spirals hurting himself and those around him. Sometimes when I think I’m broken and that I’ll never be able to improve myself I think of the Jacob I envisioned for my fic, him calling his family, taking care of himself, growing as a person. And I think if he can do it, so can I. What you said about not caring whether or not your art looks good and just wanting to portray your ideas really spoke to me, it’s what’s motivated me to take up drawing and writing again even if I do it poorly. 

The fic has gone absolutely nowhere by the way. The only thing I can update about it is that I’ve changed the plot to be easier to write because constantly being in the headspace of a severely mentally unwell person in turn made me mentally unwell. The idea of the new plot is that I just skip to Jacob getting therapy and getting better but I can’t even get to that part without hitting narrative and mental roadblocks. I’m certainly no writer, I find the process of turning my ideas into words comparable to pulling teeth. I just have this idea about Jacob that I want to spread to other people, the idea of getting comments from people empathizing and rooting for Jacob makes me euphoric. 

P.S I find it funny that your hyperfixation extends to the rest of the characters in the owl house because for me personally I don’t really care about them too much. I like them to be clear, but I like them about as much as the average non fandom entrenched viewer who moved on from the series after it ended would. 

Hi, thank you for the message! I don't really know what to say but I appreciate your kind words :'] I relate to a lot of what you've said especially about projecting onto jacob and feeling like you need to move onto different things. I honestly did try to distance myself from the owl house after I burnt out but the brainworms persisted lol. The owl house is immensely important to me and so is jacob specifically, I don't think I could give it up. I'm glad to hear you're still working on your art and fic, just remember to take your time. It really sucks to not be able to put your thoughts onto paper but it's better not to push yourself. My ideas usually come to me randomly at night so it gets confusing. One thing I like to do is keep a journal and bring it with me everywhere I go, and when I come up with an idea of what I want to do I write down/draw the basic gist of it. It doesn't have to be pretty or polished, just legible enough for you to remember. And you can always scrap these ideas if they end up not being quite right. Brainstorming like this can be really fun! I'm not an expert in this kinda thing but it's really helped me. ALSO taking time to just do things you enjoy can give you a lot of inspiration. Ive come up with a lot of ideas just from like, watching different shows or hanging out with people. I actually started watching steven universe with my brother, and of course, ended up liking Ronaldo. Jacob and Ronaldo, canonically anyway, are very similar characters, and it actually gave me inspiration to develop jacob and make him different in a lot of ways (I originally had jacob be kinda weeby like Ronaldo, but honestly? I don't think it suits him. I think hes more of a western fantasy genre kind of person. Game of thrones, dnd, that kind of thing. Makes sense with his dialogue about the ren faire.)

Id really like to talk more about my headcanons for the cast of my AU (especially jacob) buuuttt I don't really wanna do it publicly until my project is out. I want people to come to the conclusions themselves lol. I don't really count my first post to you because A LOT of my headcanons have changed since then. Also I totally understand only being interested in Jacob lol. I joke that the owl house is the only thing I really care about because while I like other things that have fandoms (i play cookie run kingdom and well, i did watch su) i haven't attached to anything like I have to TOH. It's kinda frustrating because I used to have like 5 fandoms at a time but my brain says: no. Only owl house. I also have attachments to characters that only have any development in my head (I especially like the reality check camp kids bc they play a big role in mashas character in my au) it makes me sad that the fandoms kinda dying out but like I completely understand. We're probably never getting anything else. Rip.

Anyway it's 2:44 am I probably need to go to bed lol cya 👋

[alwayscraftynight]
