The Flower Symbolism and Hanakotoba (Japanese language of flowers) in the Official Art of The Summer Hikaru Died:

(Note: While most of the flowers were easy to identify, the flowers in the cover of the novel version vol. 1 were a bit difficult.)

White Anemone: sincerity

Anemones are sometimes used in funeral arrangements in Japan. They are also associated with anticipation.

Primrose: desperate 

(Western red primrose) 

(Japanese red primrose)

White Chrysanthemum: truth, loyalty, and death

White chrysanthemums, are often used for funerals in East Asia.

The other type of chrysanthemum in the cover is the pom pom chrysanthemum.

Yellow Chrysanthemum: royalty and elegance

Yellow chrysanthemums are associated with the emperor.

White Lily: purity and chastity

White lilies are used at funerals in East Asia.

In Japan, when a students dies, white lilies are often left on the a student’s desk.

(Yes, I used the album cover of Lily by Centimillimental. If I am going to talk about doomed gay love and symbolism, I might as well be reminded of Given and cry listening to Centimillimental‘s music.

Yellow Daisy: friendship and happiness

Red Daisy: romantic love and passion

Daisies typically mean faith in Hanakotoba.

Purple Tulip: undying/immortal love

The tulips on the cover appear to be blue, but blue tulips are not naturally growing tulips. They are made through dyes and other forms of manipulation.

Bonus: Chapter 11.6 special

Sunflower: admiration

1 sunflower: love at first sight

3 sunflowers: love confession

7 sunflowers: secret love

11 sunflowers: true love

108 sunflowers: marry me

Writing has both good & bad days. It's not you. It's just how it is

Just to be clear;

Your own writing will look like shit or like gold, depending on what sort of day you're having

No matter how many times you edit your story, you'll still miss at least 55 typos

Some days writing feels like the only source of your joy and other days it feels like the bane of your existence.

Some days you can write an entire long ass one shot in a day and other times you can't write a single word for a week.

some days you'll feel like a god among writers and other days you'll wonder why you even bother if you're so bad at writing(regardless of how many kudos/hits/votes/notes/likes you get on your story).

Some days you feel warmed by the sense of writing community you have and other days you'll feel alone in your writing

Some days you'll be so grateful for 10 kudos and other days you'll sulk about getting "only a 100" kudos.

Some days seeing 45 comments on your story will make you happy because you're having a good day mentally. Other days just 4 comments will overwhelm you.

The point is that writing is no different from anything else. It has good and bad days. The secret is to go with the flow and embrace the bad days just like you do the good ones. Nothing lasts for ever. Just like good days pass, so do the bad ones. Hang in there, awesome writer 💪

You're doing a great job and you'll be alright🫂❤️

Por suerte mi partner ama el drama tanto como yo 😆

Porque donde se ponga un buen drama entre personajes, que se quiten relaciones idílicas y románticas donde todo sale bien.

ANTAGONISM — HUNTING DOWN

"Boo." "Caught you." "I have my ways." "Long time no see." "Why are you here?" "Can't hide from me." "How did you find me?!" "Resistance is futile." "You're an easy target." "I'll never let you go." "Don't look so surprised." "Stalking's an ugly word." "Hiding from me, are you?" "I brought you something." "Cute little hiding place." "It is time for a reunion." "Wasn't easy finding you…" "I told you to leave me alone!" "Wherever you go, I'll follow." "You're a hard person to find…" "Enough running! Face me, coward!" "I tracked you down for a reason." "Come here, give me a nice big hug." "I always find what I'm looking for." "You know why I'm here. Hand it over." "Is no space sacred to you? Leave me." "Thought you could run from me, did ya?" "Jumpy… why so nervous? It's just me." "I told you I don't want to see you again." "Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide. What now?" "You're predictable, of course you'd be here." "Don't give me that angry look. Can't I visit?" "You wouldn't be running if you weren't guilty." "People have a habit of talking when I ask nicely." "Do you have nothing better to do than stalking me?" "Consequences are catching up to you, just as I am." "I thought it was best to give this invitation personally." "I'm not dropping this, not until you fix the mess you made." "Doesn't matter where you go, where you hide, I'll hunt you down." "Please, you're still mad about that? Let it go and leave me alone." "There's unfinished business between us two. I'm here to remind you of that." "You can't run from responsibility. It has a habit of catching up when you least expect it." "So you found me, what now? Want to argue, want to fight? Either way you're not winning this." "Your friends get chatty with the right motivation. Asked them where you could be hiding. They were quick to break."

Reactions to... seeing their enemy

"I knew you would come. You're so predictable."

"So, it's finally time to officially meet?"

"Is this your idea of a joke? Because no one is laughing."

"Well, look who decided to show up. I was wondering when you'd finally make your move."

"I really hoped I wouldn't have to look at your face again."

"You? Here? Wouldn't have expected to see you here."

"Couldn't have known you would be here as well, could I?"

"Guess I can't avoid you forever. What's up? Another round?"

"I was starting to think you'd lost your nerve."

"Hmm. This is not good. This is really not good."

"And here you are again, playing the same old game. Pathetic."

"If that isn't my favourite enemy. My nemesis."

"What are you doing here? Did I miss the memo about our next epic fight happening at Starbucks?"

"You're here. Good. That makes it easier for me to finish what I started."

"Are you lost or just trying to get yourself killed?"

"If it's a fight you want, it's a fight you'll get."

"Wow, I didn't think you were capable of showing your face around here."

"You just won't stop, will you? After everything, you still think you've got something to prove?"

"You really can't leave me alone, can't you? Missed me so much?"

"Is this the best you can do? I thought you'd bring something worth my time."

"You're late. I can't work against an unreliable enemy. We all got other appointments after this."

"Look, if you're here to apologize, I'll let you know now, it's too late. But if you're here to fight, I'm all ears."

"I've been waiting for this. Let's see if you can still run your mouth when I'm through with you."

"Didn’t I tell you last time? You're going to regret this. Again."

"No one told me they would here as well. This is so awkward."

"You just don't know when to quit, do you?"

"I was hoping you'd show up. You always make things interesting."

"Back again? I'll admit, I'm impressed. You're either brave... or just plain stupid."

Forced Proximity Dialogue Prompts

Haven't done one of these in a while.

"Come on, this isn't funny." "I'm not joking. It's locked."

"Is that the only tent we have?"

"There's only one bed." "Well, darlin', I'm not sleeping on the floor, so I guess we'll have to share."

"I'm your bodyguard. It's in the job description to protect you at all times." "Well, could you at least 'protect' me from over there?"

"You have got to be kidding me. I have to share a room with you."

"What do you mean there's only one sleeping bag? You had one job."

"Quit following me!" "I was hired to follow you, princess, better get used to it."

"What the hell is that noise?" "Uh, yeah, slight problem. We're out of gas."

"Where are you going? We're in the middle of nowhere!" "Yeah! And whose fault is that?"

"Look around, love. In case you hadn't noticed we're snowed in. So unless you plan to freeze to death, we'll have to find a way to keep each other warm."

"I may be stuck with you, but I don't have to like it."

"Is now a bad time to tell you I'm claustrophobic?"

"Your heart's racing. Now, I know being pressed up against me is exhilerating and all, but I'm trying to concentrate on picking this lock."

"What are you? Afraid?"

"Uh. Slight problem. We're trapped."

"Well, which way, smartass?" "Uh. We might be lost."
