Make sure you don't accidentally punish people for communicating their needs and boundaries. When someone cares enough to have the uncomfortable conversation, that's a compliment and a clear sign that they are invested in the relationship. Yes of course it's uncomfortable to hear that something you've been doing has been upsetting someone you care about when that was never your intention, but people generally only bother to have these conversations with the people they want to keep around - the people they trust to care. If they just didn't like you, they'd probably just try to avoid you. So make sure you don't make it into a more punishing experience than it has to be. Try to see the care and the trust behind the criticism, even when it triggers uncomfortable emotions. It's a good sign that they're there telling you.

The Princess x K-pop demon hunters au With Damsel, Heart and Prisoner
and The Saja Voices
They are pretty much being forced into fighting generations of hunters by the Narrator, all of them are controled souls in debt that where previously human. (Quiet of the real king for them, but he has been trapped by the Narrator as leverage)
*Skeptic and Cheated are the only non-idol ones, being mannager and agent respectively

My fellow bitches under 5'5. Whatever the money, do not take a job working at a middle school. A fellow adult tried to put me in detention last month and would NOT give up until I showed her my badge proving Yes, The School Hired Me To Work Here. It's not meant for people our height.

Fanfic tiktok is wild... I see so many people saying shit like "I could never read anything below 60k!!", or "What story can you even tell in under 5k words?" or "A oneshot below 10k isn't even a story!" or "I always filter completed fics by 100k< only!"
And I'm like...
A) which fandoms are you reading fics for where you have this kind of offerings on the regular?
B) have you heard of short stories? If you truly think every story NEEDS to be longform to connect with people, I sincerely feel sorry for you.
C) Average novel length is between 50k to 100k. I'm sorry, but CONSISTENTLY demanding fic writers to push out fics of that length is insane. Just think about it: YOU DEMAND AUTHORS TO PUT OUT FICS THAT COMPARE TO COMMERCIAL NOVELS IN LENGTH (AND QUALITY) AS A BASELINE.
Yall are wilding.

I just love the colours and shading in your sketch book drawings! I have to ask, what pens do you use for the colours? I’m such a noob at drawing but your sketches are always just so inspiring to me and I’d love to start learning.
:D !
Ink pension for lineart, when using colours.
- staedtler pigment liner.
Uni pin fine liner 0.8 & uni pin fine line BRUSH.
Microsoft 01, 1, and graphic.
(For Gray shade) faver-castell B (mega recommend these, i need more)

Coloured pens:
The cheapest whatever I can get from any store. I mix up a lot.
- stabo pen 68 (colour pack)
Berol colour fine & broad.
Sōstrarna Grene colour pack (double sided, one side fine, the other side broad. Same colour each side.)

I think I just try to scout to have a wide range of colours. Some colours I wind up using a lot, like red and yellow, or blue. But i like buying cheap colour packs with unique shades, like... a small pack of various shades of pink or gray. Because then I can combine more colours.
I think it's a lot of fun to use colours to not only colour in the drawing, but rather colour the space around the drawing. I feel like I always mess up when I start colouring in the figures, or the lines get smeared.
But colouring around them has brought in colour in a fun way! It also forces me to use coloured pens like you would on a canvas, letting colour pass over and through one another - which is why having different sets and brands of pens and colours is good. Because some brands are lighter and some are heavier, and the blending effect will be different.
I also keep dry pens to get texture or to use as a blend-smudge. My orange is running out, so i used it on a dark skin colour to get rid of the stroke lines and give a glowing undertone.
But yeah!! Im a firm believer that it doesn't have to be expensive to look nice in the end. It's just about being creative and using what you got and not letting yourself be framed in on not combining your tools. Combine!! :D
