#absence makes the heart grow fonder

[respectthepetty]

Yuan was sick and still went to help Qian.

Yuan is being shipped off yet still defends Qian.

Yuan will call only to still be silenced by Qian.

Yuan suffers but still cares for Qian.

Qian doesn't even notice all the little ways that Yuan loves him.

But he will now that Yuan is gone.

Kedreeva, have you ever burned out on fic writing - done it so much and for so long that you wake up one day, and just can't look at any fic writing at all?

I've been writing pretty much non-stop for the last 3 years, and I'm exhausted with it, to the point where thinking about it makes me physically sick. I need to take a break, but I'm scared that my writing won't ever come back, that I've 'broken' my hobby for good.

Do you or any of your followers have any advice? It's such a horrible feeling, to lose something that's been such a huge part of my life for so long. I don't know what to do with myself.

I don't really burn out on the act of writing as a whole. I can get sick of a story, or a fandom, but I have always felt a deep desire to write something. At most, I might take a few days, or up to a month (sometimes post-nano, I do get tired of the story I was writing), and just pick something else to do, some other hobby of mine. A video game or a virtual pet game or something. Clean stuff. lay in the grass if it's nice. The writing will be there when I come back.

But even so, what I can tell you is that you can't break your hobby of writing. You can leave it, you can put it down, you can decide never to do it again. You may get rusty on some of the skills, but it's a skill like any other skill, and it will come back to you when you pick up practicing again. You may need to exercise the muscle memory to get back into shape, but that's just how any skill works. Writing isn't some mystical talent you use or you lose. It's a thing you learned how to do and then practiced doing for a while. And you can do that again any time!

so... my advice would be this. Don't just Not Write. Not Writing is a symptom of writing. You don't stop writing by Not Writing. If you want to take a break, pick up something else to be doing. Get a video game you can get lost in for a while like animal crossing or stardew valley or whatever the kids are into these days. Pick up some books to read. Get into a new show or rewatch an old one you love. Pick some other skill or hobby you wanted to learn and do that badly for a bit. It doesn't really matter what, and you don't have to pick one thing and stick with it forever or anything. Just give yourself an actual break doing something else.

the writing will be there when you are ready to come back for it.

Wait. Did Michael Cole say Kevin and Sami broke up? They didn't "break up" Michael, they're taking a break. 🤭

They say, "absence makes the heart grow fonder." But they forgot to add "only for a while".

Imaginary Waltz

My Imaged perfect thought,

Where my waltz is In synch with theirs.

Where we step intune with each other,

Staring into the others eyes.

Moving together,

Moving competently,

Stepping forwards and supporting one another,

So willingly

In my sweet perfect world.

Where I am allowed to love her.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder

by SweetieR

Harry and Louis have been together forever when Louis has to take a job offer 5 hours away from Harry for a year. They try their very best to make it work, but will it be enough? Everyone says that long distance relationships suck, but you can't really know until you're stuck in one yourself.

Or - Harry and Louis love each other so so much, but can their love survive the terrible trial of distance?

Hi, thank you for working so hard for the horny people but for the NORMAL people can you do something you enjoy? A blurb or imagine of Jacaerys since you seem to know his character really well or anyone really. Anything that doesn’t make you feel weird or like it’s a chore because I just genuinely enjoy your writing style (nsfw or not<3)

I love my anons so much;; you guys are honestly the best 🫶

Thank you so much for the kind words and the support 🥹 it doesn't go unnoticed, I can promise you that!

I'm working on a sweet ff with Jace as we speak :")) to atone for all my sins and to give everyone a break from THW Aemond =))

"Absence makes the heart grow fonder" is the biggest lie I've ever been told.

Absence makes my friend's heart realize how much better it is without me.

Absence made my potential girlfriend realize she'd dodged a bullet with me.

Absence certainly taught me that I hated my family.

My father's perpetual absence didn't make me fonder of him, it just made me terrified of his proximity.

Absence allows for reflection, allows people to remember how much better off they were without you.

So I cut people off when they wander, because it's not like they're coming back.

*slowly gets closer* *holds your hand* *slowly and warmly kisses your cheek* *slowly embraces*

*slowly melting inside* *doesn't want to scare him off, so doesn't say what she is thinking*

*I'd forgotten how wonderful the warmth of your skin was, Stephen...but not the sweetness of your lips against my cheek. Sometimes, in those long lonely days while you were gone, I dreamt of your kisses. Sometimes I wished I could just keep on dreaming, until you finally returned.*

Post-HaE movie headcanon:

Soushi's social skills kinda grow along with his confidence because he hangs around Kazuki all the time and that means sorta-starting all over with the other island kids. He also becomes more talkative because now he has Kazuki whom he can mansplain to 24/7. Maya eventually gets roped into his TED talks too but that comes much later

((in case you didn't realize I'm using the term mansplaining very affectionately when talking abt Soushi. In fact, there's this yonkoma doujin where Kazuki and Soushi go on a date and a third is spent on Soushi mansplaining stuff while Kazuki nods along))
