hiii can you do web weaving about finding your true purpose in this world?

The world is so vast and beautiful and I am exactly where I'm supposed to be.

I'm terribly sorry this took so long! ;^^

A web weaving of codependency plsss

'To death do us part' in the most literal sense

... I hope you weren't wanting something more romantic, aha. 'This is not a love poem' and all that.

hello! for some reason, the thought of asking about web weaving prompts completely escaped me until now. you're the first I am asking! hello!!!

I don't see this sort of web weaving subject around, so is it possible to make one about an abandoned AI? (the fictional, sapient kind, not the ones irl lol)

like an AI, with a sapient mind, just..... alone. lost between the lines of code in cyberspace, wishing for someone like them to destroy their isolation

How can you mourn for something not living?

I hope this fills the prompt well! It was very interesting to do. I'm sorry it took so long! ;^^

Hello! If you'd like, can you please do a web weave about being scared of the pain and nostalgia that comes with a phase of your life ending and a new one beginning?

I suppose all you can really do is look forward.

Sorry for using Up the Wolves in another one of my webs. It will... probably happen again.

Ah! I've closed the askbox for now, I hope you all don't mind!

[sageandscorpiongrass]

hello <3 could you please do a webweaving on losing someone you love? thank you!

Either way, you're not coming back.

For whatever reason, I really struggled with this one. I wasn't sure if you meant loss as in dying or loss as in leaving, so I tried to make it applicable to both.

First off I wanna say I love Elsa's song and the amazing devil...

Do you think you could make a web weave of your best friend cutting you off after years? It's been a lot on me :(

What do I do with myself now? On: Friendship and endings.

I hope this is alright. It's been... a few years since someone's called me their best friend? So my implied emotion might be a tad off.

I know this is tumblr and we don't care about follower count here, but this silly blog of mine must have broken 1,000 followers without me realizing! Thank you all so much for all the lovely things you say about my web weavings and my own poetry. <333
