hello my fav writer, im curious abt ur top 5 ryeji fics 🧐

OKAY this was both hard to answer and easy to answer bc i'm good at remember to bookmark my faves (and also reread them all LMAO). that being said!! the below list is not in order, there are honorable mentions, and there's just so much incredible ryeji fic out there that it feels wild to just say 5.

what’s in a name by snowandwolves

if you haven’t read what’s in a name and you read ryeji fic…… please read it right now? it’s not only my favorite ryeji fic, it’s one of my fave stories of all time (including published shit like this fucking fic is a tour de force). it’s simply one of the most beautiful things i’ve ever read and i could not recommend it enough. (this author’s writing is so good i started watching warrior nun just so i can one day enjoy their warrior nun fics i’m so for real right now)

all or nothing (unfortunately orphaned 😭)

all or nothing is one of my comfort fics. it’s a perfect little two shot and idk how many times i’ve read it. the characterization is just lovely. the ryeji relationship is warm and soft and slow and sweet and inevitable (which you know is just how i like it). perfect amount of getting to know each other, perfect amount of pining, a dreamy dreamy yeji it’s just elite

call it fate, call it karma by crushpdf

this fic….. read it please if you haven’t it’s criminally underrated. the fact that it has fewer than 2k hits is actually insane to me. idol yeji and producer ryu and they just fall in love and it’s low drama and perfect and another comfort fic of mine. idk what to say, it’s a 6k one shot, so honestly just read (or reread) it now and thank me later

muse by qaisal

i was considering not including a qaisal fic on this list, but that doesn’t feel right or honest, like there’s a reason they’re top of the tag!! i think muse is my personal fave (and one of the first ryeji fics i’ve ever read, which is probably true for many! if you’ve somehow read my fics and haven’t read muse i am confused, but it’s just cute as hell! i’m too old to write a high school au, so it’s very nice to have an elite one like this to read and reread when i wanna feel warm and fuzzy inside

you’re a mean one by snowddeong

this fic…. also one of the first ryeji fics i read. i don’t generally read gp, but when it’s good it’s good, and YAMO is so fucking good. idk how many times i’ve read it. snow has this unfair ability to tie like so much yearning and history and backstory and tension in these simple moments. and then they combine it with some really hot shit? elite smut fic like it’s an all time classic!!!

honorable mentions:

wheel, snipe, celly by lonewolflink

bite me by hwang_yeddeong

cartwheel heart by aprilflower

step by step (then a leap of faith) by snowandwolves

good boi by hwangdroid (also snow)

Live Brief with Playground Games

Developing Concepts #5

Interior & Colour Script

We had a team meeting about how to proceed with the concept work once Kal's storyboard was complete. Mica had been working on a blueprint for the interior but there was still a lot of design required for each shot and the placement of props, etc.. I pitched the idea of me creating the grey box block-out for the interior that would combine Mica's blue print as well as the elements required for the story board to work - such as the idea of levels, replacing the water with a garden because of the spiders, the placement of the pillars for the mural, and a platform for the Geisha to signify power imbalance, etc. This would also allow me to set up the cameras for each shot and lighting for the colour story. The 3D environment and Unreal artists could take my file and use it as a base for their 3D modelling and set dressing and use the camera settings as a guide for the focal length & field of view etc.

I created Arnold mesh lights and rendered a colour story of all of our shots using manikins from the content browser.

The colour journey was important for the narrative as it had to convey the moment when safety and familiarity became betrayal and danger. The colours were carefully balanced in the opening scene to still have a cyberpunk element, but also to appear inviting. This couldn't happen with either the absence of the greens or the reds as a monochromatic pallet would denote sickness on the green spectrum, or threat on the red, which we leaned into hard during the betrayal shots. The blue in the doorway also linked the exterior colour design to the interior. The main inspiration (supplied by Kal) the team used for the lighting was a series of stills from Cyberpunk 2077 when things took a dangerous turn after the death of a high profile character.

Stills from Cyberpunk 2077.

We assigned different shots to the concept artists to better design lighting and character acting. I worked on the 2D rendering the shots that would inform the majority of the design for the interior.

Concept art I created of the interior using my block-out renders as an underlay. The sketched characters are from Kal's storyboard.

We’re excited to join @loynosca and #IGLibraries for this month’s social media challenge: #BookBouquets! Watch for a floral book cover each Wednesday in April.

Our copy of The Bouquet (Boston, 1844) features a gorgeous gilt-stamped floral bouquet against a faded-purple cloth. We think this binding is stunning as is, and bet it was even more striking when the purple cloth was new.

Browse our database of 19th-century cloth bindings to see more!  

The Bouquet.  Boston : Oliver L. Perkins. 1844. 11 cm x 7 cm x cm.

Essential Japanese Seasonal Decorations - Spring

Seasonality: Late Spring/ April

Japanese Name: Wagashi - Hana Shidare

English Name: Traditional Japanese Confectionery - Weeping Sakura

    The significance of the cherry blossom tree, also called sakura (桜), in Japanese culture goes back hundreds of years. The cherry blossom represents the fragility and the beauty of life. It’s a reminder that life is almost overwhelmingly beautiful but that it is also tragically short. When the cherry blossom trees bloom for a short time each year in brilliant force, they serve as a visual reminder of how precious and how precarious life is. So, when Japanese people come together to view the cherry blossom trees and marvel at their beauty, they aren’t just thinking about the flowers themselves, but also about the larger meaning and deep cultural tradition the cherry blossom tree.
