Just realized The Present is a Gift's birthday is in under 2 months. And the anniversary of when the fic started being posted is pretty much 7 months away. That's like, 3 weeks in ADHD time you guys.

#there's no way it's been a year already. AND YET #august 1st... it's coming.#Twig and Kip were born on the 2nd #they grew up so fast!!! and so did their au!!!#im so honored that y'all have enjoyed my au and its antics #I'm planning a possible wrap-up for the majority of the characters' stories so that i can hypothetically move on to other projects—#—not that I'm abandoning TPiaG at all! but so that i can give Spindle and Sen and Ruby and the gang the proper resolutions they deserve.#i want these characters to have fitting endings. i owe it to them and i owe it to you guys.#thanks for sticking around and also reading this preamble to my blubbering that will take place in august <3 #the present is a gift au #pokemon mystery dungeon #pokémon mystery dungeon #pmd #sofie says stuff

sparkle on, tiberius ✨

#my art #low stakes 🦇#my old friend crimson-catalyst helped with the shoes!! basically drew the shoe sketch while i slept. please check out his art he's great #anyway not many vampires sparkle in my lore. like at all. it's a super rare trait even among the daywalkers. tiberius is a weird exception #most vampires just kinda burn. or crack. and otherwise can't deal with the sun very well #and most daywalker vampires - upon sun exposure - get these dark ashy marks on their skin instead #so most vampires don't even know sparkling like this is a thing that is possible #he sure is sparkling like a MARBLE STATUE ✨ (do they actually sparkle?? idk man it's probably just a figure of speech at this point)#happy birthday silly boy #anyway his birthday is feb 2nd and he'd be uhhh. 2144 years old today #a grecoroman idiot twink. i don't think he remembers his original name - his cause of undeath was drowning in the river of tiber though #being drunk on wine while accidentally becoming a vampire is never a good idea (major memory loss may happen)#so he's just been going by tiberius. for a while. like that's just his name now #for the record he is very gay. he doesn't call it that but he totally is #also i don't care for twilight sorry it's too romantic and mormon for my taste. but its vampire lore is funny and i'll borrow from anything #like the sparkles. maybe one vampire does sparkle. as a treat #hope you enjoyed my tag ramble. time to actually post

#crow talks #revue starlight #man. :(#made me cry for a whole episode.#there are parts that resemble some stuff from rgu but im too sad to point them out #the part when the giraffe started speaking to me was wack #karen missing hikari for nearly a year reminds me of daigo (from major 2nd) missing his “friend” hikaru for two months #(maybe wouldve been more if his dad didnt let him see him one last time)#revue starlight.... man.#i might rewatch it one day like w utena lol #gonna watch the movies next week bc i want to be free of school stress lol #if i do it now i might be sad n stuff when i come back to school lol

now that i've turned thai drama into my bachelor thesis, the only question left is: how to turn thai drama into my master's thesis

#i have about 2 years to figure this out #it's gotta be something that i can do with whatever skill level i'm at with my thai once i get there #not just the skill level but also my cultural knowledge #i'm one semester into my master's and i've already decided on a supervisor for my thesis fkfjfjf #and he even said he'd let me do this SO!!#airenyah plappert #alternatively a different idea i had was to do a translation analysis of pjo #since i have 3 different translations of the og series at home (german italian and norwegian)#i think thai would be fun tho bc i don't think the thai language is something that gets researched a lot here #we don't even have thai studies as it's own subject to study #(there's korean studies and japanese studies and chinese studies)#(there's also one major called 'south asian tibetology and buddhist studies' but they have no thai unfortunately)#(i was still thinking of doing that as a 2nd subject tho bc i'd get to learn more about buddhism which i know nothing about)#(and also they do sanskrit which could also be suuuper interesting)#(also i have so many indian mutuals and i thought it might be fun to learn about indian culture)#(and then discuss it with the mutuals and learn even more djcjjcf)#(let's see if i can manage to schedule it hfhfhc)#(bc i've also been thinking of doing theater film and media studies as a 2nd major)#(i have too many things i'm interested in send help)

[Vampire Knight] If I'm to be reborn, I'll find you (again, again, again) - PROLOGUE: 'til death due us part - [1/4]

Summary: What happens when the brightest star in a binary system ceases to exist?

It's no secret that Kuran Yuuki was the apple of Kuran Kaname's eye. But few truly realised the depths of darkness he would plunge into for her. Even fewer saw the madman behind that intricately made mask of sanity.

Note: I really wanted to explore a world where Yuuki dies (especially since I like her so much haha) before the whole parent metal furnace incident but it ended up more like a story about grief and mourning. Mostly because I was influenced by Miyashita Yuu's cover of "Condolences, and Then Life Goes On". It's a very sombre but beautiful cover. I feel like a world where Yuuki dies first would affect the vampires greatly, especially since she was so integral in many of his decisions.

This is also on ao3, if you prefer reading on ao3 instead.

Pairings featured: Yuuki/Kaname

-------

"Kana—me…" It's a minor miracle that she can even speak as clearly as now—the wounds she’d sustained would’ve been enough to immediately kill a lesser vampire. Even now, Yuuki struggles to breathe; each breath coming out in raspy, short intervals. She knows there is no saving for her, and Yuuki thinks that, from his slightly trembling hands to the anguish in his eyes (Those eyes which had always, always been gentle and kind to her), Kaname knows it too.

Who knew her life would be cut so short? Slowly, painfully reaching out, Kuran Yuuki cups her lover’s cheek, drawing him closer.

“I…love…you…” She whispers, putting all her energy into this one final proclamation of love.

(She hopes that he will forgive her, for leaving him so soon, when she’d finally decided to stay.

She hopes that one day, Kaname will find peace after her death.

She hopes that, if reincarnation truly exists, they’ll find each other again.)

Yuuki smiles—radiant, bright like the sun.

And shatters.

#my writing #angst #fanfiction #vampire knight #yuuki cross #yuuki kuran #cross yuuki #kuran yuuki #kuran kaname #kaname kuran #major character death #death fic #i do promise i'm not all about the angst i swear i have goofy silly rom-com style ideas for VK #it's just such an inherently tragic series that i felt like i needed to make an angst fic lmao #eternal yume #also yume makes froth at the mouth they make me go insane they make me want to bite off a piece of plaster and chew on it #Zeki's cool too though they've got that tension as well but unfortunately yume rearranged my brain chemistry as a child so zeki's 2nd place #i can't i wrote freaking vampire knight fanfiction in the year of our lord 2k23

#I love how when I’m in a relationship I don’t really care whether or not an SO gets me anything for Valentine’s Day #(my 2nd year at LSE the guy I was dating got me roses chocolates and a book on anti-semitism. which sounds insane yet is an oddly sweet/#earnest gesture trying to please a girl you mostly know from a banking and finance class who majors in history w/Russian Language and is #planning on writing her undergrad diss on the Dreyfus Affair)#but if any of my girl friends aren’t #then I’m ordering candy and gifts and pestering my mom to drop off something for my friend who still lives where I’m from #like I just woke up at 3 am this morning. realized I hadn’t gotten anything yet for my best friend from uni who now lives in NYC. and spent #$54 on chocolate (I know the shop it is worth it. turtles + soft centers + peanut butter cups for the win)#whoever takes that order and sees the note is definitely gonna think that’s my gf #oh well. taking a page from the Keith playbook #not the stones #me stuff

bro thoughts on heartbreak? what is up with that? what to do when it happens? is moving on even real or are we all forever loving every person we ever loved in the past for all eternity and just pretending we forgot about them? is the guilt ever over? how to know if im a bad person? whose to say? what can ibuprofen even do???

i dont think ive ever been heartbroken if im being honest... both romantically and platonically? which is kinda sad in its own right because sometimes i feel as though i havent gotten to experience the entire spectrum of emotions yet... its part of why i can be pretty naive sometimes lol

i think the closest thing to heartbreak ive ever felt was being sad over my youth... i just miss being carefree and only worrying about when the next pokemon game was coming out... i miss the innocence and i suppose im heartbroken over that

but i think when it comes to "person" heartbreak... i dont think its really about loving every person we've ever loved forever. i think for the most part, the people we miss from our pasts have already become different people in the present. what we miss are the memories we've shared, and people grow so quickly that we're ever-evolving into different humans. you dont have to pretend to forget them. memories are memories, and ive always tried to appreciate them like paintings. beautiful to look at, but to yearn to be a part of it? possible sometimes, but i like to keep my distance.

and does heartbreak always have to end in guilt? i think ending/losing relationships doesnt necessarily involve one person being the "bad" guy... i think relationships will eventually end one way or another. either death or time will make everything reach its end, so dont worry too much about being the bad guy.

ibuprofen is an nsaid for physical pain im afraid... but i suppose heartbreak can sometimes feel like that. maybe have a chocolate milk instead. or hug a friend/partner that you currently have. heartbreak is all about the past... all we can do now is appreciate the present for what it is

#ibuprofen is funny to me bc 2nd year chem majors will usually synthesize it for their first organic lab #and i remember TA'ing for it and a student asked me if he can take his sample home #me: why?#him: for the memories #anyway tldr lets love and love and love and love and love an #Anonymous #answered

man i think the amon plotline is just kind of weak in terms of world building

#lok #i've seen posts discussing this with more nuance #but it's still so soon after the hundred year war #republic city is new too. only a generation old. majority of its population are either 1st or 2nd generation immigrants #or earth kingdom citizens or fire nation colonists who built what became the city during the war #and the way that bending is distributed among the population of every nation is entire random. it's an odd choice to mark it as a dividing #a dividing line. because every bender has family that are nonbenders and vice versa #and! add to that that unless you are trained just being born a bender isn't an intrinsic leverage over a nonbender. untrained benders #and benders without a lot of power exist. able to do party tricks and not much more #it likens to. people who's bodies are more naturally built to handle manual labour. it's just genetics and random luck #of course there could be interesting ways to tackle bender and nonbender dynamics especially with the religious significance of bending #and in mixed cultures how bending being passed on can be a surrfire way you are truly seen as carrying on that side of your culture #and it could be interesting seeing the culture shift as republic city is the first place to have such a wide mix of different cultures #in things like food and festivals #but a nonbender revolution (especially led by a bender like amon) is odd. like what is the goal of the revolution #bending and nonbending people can't be seperated in any meaningful way. and there are already laws and rules #prohibiting destructive bending use just as there are regular destruction #it's just. the revolution seeks to remove bending from the world. that's obviously a wild thing to say with cultures built around and with #bending as a part of them. add that to the fact that benders can be born from non-bending families and it just falls apart.

No matter how bad it gets i just gotta remember. Thank God i took Italian instead of German in middle school

#listen. i wanted to major in two languages for hashtag career possibilities #i took up Italian as my 2nd lang bc i've been studying it for 9years #bc i took it in middle school when i went to high school i chose italian bc #''why should i struggle learning german when i can chill for 2 years repeating what i alrd know?''#and now i'm here majoring in italian which is FAR MORE CHILL than german studies according to the stories i hear #so i may be getting my ass beat by english but i am very much chilling with italian. grazie a cielo #all of this to say Entschuldigung to my german mewchies i do like german and took it for a while too but♡#it is not Easy

#didnt get a part in my high schools musical. which okay. sure #im an alto so i had to audition on the guy bracket. for context #so anyway i didnt even get ensemble but this one freshman (i love him hes so fabulous in every way) got a major-ish part #and after our auditions we cried in a corner together bc i didnt do body languge for the song and just shook and he sang at twice the speed #and ended 5 measures before the accomplishment did #so anyway one of those fuck ups is a teeny bit worse than the other /s #so anyway im super happy for him i love him but now im smelling bullshit #so last play i was one of four understudies #2 of us (me and that freshman actually) were understand bc she couldnt pick between 2 kids and chose the seniors for main actors #the others were there bc they were underclassmen boys and she wanted to make sure that they stayed in theatre #because we ALWAYS need more boys #so anyway. im trans and i panickedly came out to her at the audition to explain why im on the male bracket #but i really dont pass as male and im in theatre class already #so anyway other than me there were 14 boys auditioning (she was celebrating that there were actually a lot of guys for once)#and i just checked the cast list.#there were 14 boys cast.#EVERY. SINGLE. PERSON. on the male bracket BUT ME. including people who fucked up the audition really bad.#idk im just.#almost thinking of quitting the theatre class 2nd semester so i can actually get some fucking leverage next year #every single cis guy got cast probably many to make sure wed have guys next year.#im just upset bc SO MANY FRESHMEN got cast #the role i wanted went to a freshman not in theatre #and im a junior so i have 1 goddamn shot left and shes giving roles to 12 year olds over me #literally the only reason i was an understudy last play instead of main cast was because senior overrules junior junior overrules sophomore #etc.#but fuck that principle now i guess!#also every damn person in my theatre class got cast but me so. that class is gonna suck for the rest of the year ig!#mercury mumbles #damn im just. mad.#every single guy and she wont even throw me an ensemble. damn.

i'm so sorry guys i will not be able to touch the botw astor mod again (or any type of looking into modding botw) since i am very very busy with school rn i am barely making time for my own small projects that are somewhat portfolio-able and i can't do that with a botw mod since all the copyright and stuff and since i can't say i own anything i work on in the game and what i CAN edit is still very limited and the game is too wide ranged

i know i said i would finish it someday eventually but i think i would only get busier and busier i don't think i'll ever be able to get back into it or wrap it up properly even. am so sorry

but

i DO HOPE i'll be able to work on an exile vilify animation (which would probably take place after a few years from now at least IF i'm even able to make time for such a big project) which WOULD be portfolio-able since i would need to model and stage pretty much everything from the ground up myself

#botw astor mod #last post #probably #exile vilify #astor age of calamity #the 2nd year suddenly decided to dump a hefty load of everything on top of me #me and everyone else who major electric and electronics #i knew i would be 'busier' but i had no fucking idea this is insane to me #but i guess it is the cost of a well-paying job area they say #i wish i could get big pay like they say #then i would be able to buy myself a blueberry cream cheese bread and garlic cream cheese bread every day #🤣🤣🤣#then i could give myself a small periodic happy time every day
