have you ever thought about how many people think about you? it’s so bizarre. imagine someone, out of the blue, thinking of your face. something happens; they remember you. your favorite song, how you dress, the way you talk, the look in your eyes when you are happy. they remember that about you, even if you haven’t seen each other in years. everything in life is a reminder of a person, a place, a moment. you may think you’ve forgotten, but you haven’t.

“What is it that the child has to teach?

The child naively believes that everything should be fair and everyone should be honest, that only good should prevail, that everybody should have what they want and there should be no pain or sadness. The child believes the world should be perfect and is outraged to discover it is not.

And the child is right.”

— Rabbi Tzvi Freeman

reblog just bc i rlly need a job rn

This is the Lucky Ace. Reblog to recieve a wad of cash that is oddly specific to your current needs.

3 times Iruma courts Alice the way humans do with Alice not understanding anything – and 1 time he actually does.

OKAY. so. flashback to a post i made back in may where i asked for iruazz fic ideas...this fic was based from there except it’s months late lol. this was so interesting to write bc 1. i have no romantic bone in my body and 2. i dont have any firsthand experience on courting somebody so this was...idk. 

one thing i notice that’s becoming a pattern on my iruazz fics is that alice is always on the receiving end. and yk what i think thats interesting and fresh and all that. anyway this has been rly fun and i hope u enjoy it as much as i did writing it :D

[jae-scape]

so I got into grad school today with my shitty 2.8 gpa and the moral of the story is reblog those good luck posts for the love of god

[jae-scape]

Summary:

In which Atsushi is Akutagawa’s new neighbor, and Akutagawa loses hours of sleep from talking to Atsushi across their kitchen windows at ungodly hours of night — and falls in love in the process.

i dont rlly know what to say much about this one except one day i saw an au prompt abt two people talking to each other across their kitchen windows and i just rolled with it. i think it’s very domestic n seeing sskk outside of stories and scenarios where the premise is mainly them on their workplace n stuff is rly nice :D also aku struggles wit feelings but That Is Ok !

If you’re trying to decide whether or not to write that self-indulgent fic that only you will like?

If you’re trying to decide whether you should read that favourite fic for the 17,000th time even though you have the whole thing memorized?

If you’ve never read/written fanfic before, but you think you want to try it?

op: let ppl ship what they want, it’s fictional!

au prompt where two complete strangers go to a relationship therapist just to see how long itll take until the therapist figures out theyre not actually married and just, in fact, strangers but the therapist never does because the two of them actually look like theyve fallen inlove with each other

[jae-scape]

“Akutagawa—a tattoo artist—always goes to the flower shop across the street to practice drawing flowers. There he meets the pretty owner, Atsushi, and falls in love with him in the process.”

there’s a certain something about it: a certain subtleness, certain simplicity, on stories that tell you how two people fall in love with each other. love is a process—i believe—there’s a realization that happens in between. this story is one of them.

[jae-scape]

When Akutagawa and Atsushi meet at a library one day, something sparks more than just a discussion of novels and poetry.
—
hi! after a lil over a month, i finally published a new story! this was quickly written—less than a day—and is extremely self-indulgent. two weeks ago, i had to write a reaction paper for romeo and juliet—ive only written negative stuff about it. since then, i may (or may not) have accidentally read a story about theatre actors playing R&J and also am playing Helena in MND for class. which is weird. now ive grown to love and appreciate it—R&J—that is—and somehow wanted to incorporate it to shin soukoku.
