The “oh I could definitely write this fanfic in under 5000 words and it really wouldn’t take me that long” voice in your head is actually the devil speaking
Also, sorry for two in a row, but i absolutely LOVE outer wilds and i went SO HARD and i will happily talk about it forever so i really hope you enjoy it!!!
The quantum moon is my favorite thing
im having so much fun with it!! i look forward to exploring the quantum moon (since i know how to get there now), but supposedly theres something on that big ol ocean planet that i kinda wanna get a look at first
Anyway, its amazing how you write and it flows so cleanly and just aaaaaaaaaa im in lovr with it
Aw thank you so much dude!!
I've put a lot of time and effort into developing my writing style and i hope you continue to enjoy it <3
the fic may be on a short hiatus for finals season (and to prevent burnout) right now but when im back to it there are some chapters coming up that im very excited for >:3
Whether you write fanfic or original works or paint/draw, be it fan art or original work or whatever else - I have to know, because I have a feeling this is going to be very decisive:
i am thinking about if,, if chip loses himself completely,, gillion doing another oath of vengeance type thing where his grief manifests as rage
except the problem is Who does he exact revenge on? they've already killed the person who killed chip, and his loss of himself has no one to blame,, so gillion has nowhere to direct the rage, no direction, no purpose,, and the grief consumes him.
he becomes feral, inconsolable, and furious. he becomes what he thinks he should have been, what he believes would have saved chip if he hadn't been so selfish - he becomes little more than a weapon to direct. you point, his teeth and claws and blade follow.
there is not much of gillion left, just the Champion, because the Champion wouldn't have let chip die, wouldn't have let him be lost, would have gotten there faster, would have been better.
so maybe, oath of vengeance is a bit of a misnomer. maybe it would be better to say he swore an oath of atonement.
(sometimes, when the battle is over, and all is quiet, you can see gillion slip out just a little bit. if its late at night, and you listen real close, you can just make out quiet sobbing from the captains quarters)
this has been sitting in my files for so long taking up so much space, it’s unfinished but ykw I thought it was time to share it bc I’m probably never gonna finish it anyways-
JRWI enjoyers eat up- I’ll probably get obsessed again once the hiatus is over lol
As a fic writer, i need every reader to know that:
I don’t care if your comment is coherent. I know what you mean and i love you
I don’t care if you ramble. I read every word and i love you
I don’t care if you leave a comment on a fic from four years ago or leave comments/kudos on like ten of my fics in one go. This isn’t IG, pls stalk my AO3. I love you
I don’t care if you mention the same thing in your comment that four other people have already mentioned. It’s actually really useful to know what resonated with people and I love everyone who takes the time to tell me they liked a particular turn of phrase
I don’t mind if your comment is super long or just a couple of sentences, i love them all
i have falled into the black hole FOUR TIMES in ONE RUN trying to get to the FUCKING SOUTHERN OBSERVATORY im in hell im ready to kill the nomai myself (<- lie, i cried walking through the nomai schooling district)
to anyone who has been waiting for an update to the fish n chips soulmate au fic: i forgor. also, exams season has been kicking my ass (as per usual), so i havent had time to edit this chapter. i will get to it as soon as i can, but its very likely i wont be able to update again until after finals :(
(TRUST this fic is not abandoned i am still working on it i PROMISE but school, unfortunately, comes first)
First cry of my first outer wilds run! the silly space exploration game became very un-silly very quickly
(spoilers under the cut)
i found the escape pod on brittle hollow and the city built beneath it and the writing on the walls in that city? the writing on the walls? the scientist wondering where her brother is, not knowing if he was in escape pod 2 and got away or if he was in escape pod 3 and is still in the dark bramble,, the nomai wondering where their family is,, the lingering horror at having been grabbed by the dark bramble when they were just trying to get to a curious signal they found,, the dread for the fate of their friends and family in shuttle 3,,, im weeping im in tears
