I can relate to that feeling of wanting to go back a year and a half; feeling like there was once a chance for more with someone, and now there’s not a chance just an ache. I don’t know if it helps you to know that you’re not alone; but you’re not alone.
I appreciate that Anon, and I appreciate the solidarity. But in a very real, very physical sense I am EXTREMELY alone. So alone that it hurts and rips at me every day. Empathy from internet pals will not change the core of that, even if it is still greatly appreciated. Empathy will not warm my bed, or kiss me sweetly, or sit with me on the couch and laugh together at a fun tv show. Empathy won't move in with me and pay half the rent so that we can build a life together. Empathy is a good thing, an important thing, but it is not the same as having a person to love and be loved by at my side.

favorite episode? favorite Doug Eiffel(TM) moment?
oh, tough questions! hm. i always listen to wolf 359 in order, so at this point i don't tend to think about individual episodes so much as like... i know what happens in each episode, but it's all part of the show, and i love the entire show most of all. if that makes sense. that said, memoria is very close to my heart, and had a real, material impact on my life, so that has to be one of them. it's also very impressive in what it accomplishes from a technical standpoint; mayday and the watchtower would be near the top of my list for that reason, too. but also because they're episodes that are almost entirely eiffel's voice. quiet, please is genius; intentionally limiting the audio portion of your audio drama only displays all the best things about wolf 359's clarity of sound design, and its ability to communicate visuals and a tangible sense of place. it's like gabriel urbina's response to the btvs episode hush, which i know he's said he's fond of. and bach to the future is my comfort episode for when i don't want to listen to anything else; that one always makes me feel better.
my favorite Doug Eiffel Moment... even more impossible to say. i find him enchanting. i can get fixated on the most insignificant eiffel lines and moments. my favorite eiffel moment is whatever i'm currently listening to. ... but i think one of the most eiffel moments is probably the part at the start of desperate times where he talks minkowski down and defuses the tension by "relieving her of command" - and everyone starts laughing together. it's such a perfect distillation of who he is. he thinks on his feet, he stands up to authority, he's the guy who's always got another idea, and he's quick to make himself the butt of the joke. it's funny. it's heartwarming. it's so... eiffel.

So I heard that Tumblr is slowly being abandoned (they seem to be laying off a majority of their staff and keeping a skeleton crew) and we might be nearing the end of this webbed site. I don't think it's currently worth panicking over, but I'm definitely going to start making that neocities website.
I'll make a post soon about other places where you can find me. Unfortunately, I've spent quite some time these last couple years getting rid of a majority of my social media because most platforms were bad for my mental health. I do not plan on going back to these platforms, so if tumblr goes down, I'm going to be only on non social media.
Maybe if one of the new social medias being created, actually take off (like bluesky or pillowfort or whatever else these days) I might join, but if not I might be entirely on personal websites, patreon (I will start posting regularly like a blog and make more free posts), some old websites I deleted but not because I hated them (such as ko-fi, which I deleted due to inactivity) and possibly furaffinity. I'm still on the fence about furaffinity. I might also finally start using my toyhouse but that is an oc sharing website and not much of an art sharing website.
I really do hope Tumblr doesn't go down, this is my one social media and if it does go down I am going to lose nearly all of my audience. I can make do by creating a personal blog and using whatever I have left in terms of "can post my art there and people can find me", and it won't discourage me from making my personal projects. I can make do, and I will make do, but I don't really want to make do.
Anyways, that's all I have to say right now, I'll make a post later once I set up some alternative sites to find me at, but for now I want to give the heads up that if I'm gone, you're not gonna find me on twitter, Instagram, or whatever third option there is. I'm likely going to just make do, be offline more, and likely just become active on the discord servers I'm on.

I'm curious, do you have any specific projects that you really want to work on? I'd love to hear what you want to write/what ideas you have, if you're willing to share 🫶
-Spookie
SPOOKIE! YOU'RE TO SWEET THANK YOU!!! There are a few things I've been meaning to write, among them a small fic series! These are the things on my to-write list:
TF141 with a Dragon-Prince!Reader (I actually have the prologue written already, it's completely finished, I just have no idea where to go with it! I'm gonna brainstorm a few ideas for it so I can make this my fic series! I'm really excited to continue writing on this haha!)
Singing Price a Lullaby (I'm such a sucker for putting someone's head in my lap and singing them a lullaby! I can actually sing myself sleepy whenever I sing to myself! So I like to imagine that I could make other characters feel at ease with my voice as well!)
Ghost with a Transmasc!S/O (Listen, I'm a trans man and barely any character has ever brought me as much comfort as Ghost, therefore I'm gonna write this! It was just a matter of time until I'd write this!)
Celebrating König's Birthday (My birthday is still far off, but I'm gonna write this anyway because I couldn't really celebrate my birthday last year! If I can't be happy then I will project onto König and make him happy!!)
König Teasing His S/O in His Dialect (I headcanon König to speak the same dialect as me, therefore he'll speak his dialect to his S/O if he wants to tease them! Not every German can understand my dialect either! So naturally, König would tease you about it, especially if you do know German!)
Reader Finds out Cast is Ticklish (Listen, at the risk of sounding stupid, I just wanna be an idiot with those guys and gals! Sometimes all you need is to be an idiot and goof around with your favorite characters! Plus you can get them to laugh a bit, and the Gods know someone like Ghost could need it! Plus I wanna write about getting back at Soap! Also, it has been a while since I got to write about Alex, so there's that too!)
These are the things that I've been meaning to write for a while now! I'm sure there will be more things that I'll be writing! But that's all I've written down on my list! Thank you for asking, it makes me really happy that you care :D I hope you have a lovely day! May work become a bit less draining for you and that you may take a good nap at home afterwards!!
