The End

[partnersincrimesuau]

Hey guys!!! Lil update on PIC...

yeah sorry I got back like a week ago and forgot to tell Tumblr and DeviantArt... sorry y'all TwT

I was actually going to upload the next page of PIC last Friday but I decided not to because... I'll be honest -

I'm really behind. More behind than I hoped.

Usually I like to be at least 10 pages ahead of schedule. Currently, I'm only 3 pages ahead. If I post the next page, I'll be TWO pages ahead. I'm just not making these pages fast enough... im trying to put as much love and care into the backgrounds and colouring as I can, but they're fatiguing... and as some of you know, I'm also hyperfixating on another franchise at the moment and so I'm devoting quite a bit of attention to it as well...

Does this mean that PIC will end?

Absolutely not. I do not have any plans to stop it. Even if I drift away from the Steven Universe fandom as a whole, PIC is MY story and MY comic, and I wholeheartedly plan on finishing what I started. I dont care if that means I make two pages a year, I'll still do it.

I'm going to try harder. At the minute, I've just got a lot on my plate. I've got a very expensive commission in the works, I've got friend stuff, I've got church stuff, I've got work stuff, I'm collaborating on a couple of FNAF projects (which I will be posting about soon), I'm STILL thinking about starting a youtube channel but I've also got Uni stuff, and of course...

I've got PIC. It's my little escape, and I love it so much. But unfortunately, these pages are taking a really long time to make, and I fear that if I keep uploading weekly, I'll run out and people will get confused.

So all I'm asking of is your patience. I know I'm not very good at keeping up with stuff online, but I do love what I do because it makes you guys happy. I love you all so much and I cant wait to see your reactions to future chapters.

Thank you. Thank you all so much for reading my comic. I'm working on Page 12 as we speak, and I believe I can finish it this week if I balance it with the rest of life stuff.

I think once I get through this week and finish this commission, things will get easier. Then I can FINALLY open commissions publicly like I've been planning since 2020.

Okay... i think thats all i wanted to say. Sorry i kinda went on a bit of a tangent there!!!

Anyways, i love you all so much and I'll see you soon ^^

Lots of love from Jinxy <333333

(Btw I'm online on discord just about every day so please consider the PIC discord server if you'd like to chill and hang with other readers, artists and friends!!!)

[astroreoreoreoreoreoreoreo]

𝒾𝓉 𝒾𝓈 𝓉𝒽𝒶𝓉 𝓉𝒾𝓂𝑒 𝑜𝒻 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝓌𝑒𝑒𝓀.

that time when i spiel multiple disconnected sentences at you and expect you to comprehend and respond or something (sorry man idk how to do this stuff)

new fga chaptr. spoilers because i forgot last time

this is all very tense. gyacckhhhh. im shaking with anticipation for next week … ., .,,

oreo i love love the horrid disgusting miscommunication i will kill them all. this just so . plot of them

shakes and bangs on the floor. oh. my idiots. gio and his stupid avoidance. his refusal to bestow worry and perceived burden. FFAACKK

also 🅱️ossu gio! hilarious

mysterious bird. hawk. tuah? no sorry 💔 interesting. very intriguing

gio is so nonchalant. stop it IM FRYING. AAGHGH JUST SAY *SOMETHING*!! AAHHHHH he doesnt know better does he. oh he’ll learn in time im sure. hah. yeah put suicidal ideation girl in a Situation again. yeah thatll go fine. ok

as for distruzione …. they really are a screwed up coworker ‘corporate family’. i totes see it. theyre starting to grow on me. big W (i got culto on the quiz btw. idk about that tho honestly. but i agree with knowing im a side character and hating it

boss is frying me. hes a literal caricature. bro think he tuff ✌️😭🥀 #gtfo

another one! (religious upbringing contributes to worldview)

his mistreatment of everything and everyone around him is giving projection. thats just me though. something something punching down to keep yourself up. yeah hes so closeted hes homophobic. thats literally it. april and him are evil lavender relationship

as for the question at the end….van gives me wonderfully aroacespec vibes. i am projecting but im sure it makes sense somehow <- has no justifications

oh man ! think this is . enough. i cant think of anything else… i should analyse but seriously im burnt. but banger like always. i wait for next tuesday 🫡

You are great at this stuff do not worry. I am always happy to read the sentences ^_^

how fugo and giorno feel after refusing to talk to one another or anyone else about their problems (this is clearly the best way to go about it)

gio iron deficient and pale and sick and also heartbroken and still doing his job because he's using to ignoring his own suffering #damn 😔 fugo is making me so mad rn. be nice to gio right now

DID I LEAVE THAT IN?? NOOOOO I FORGOT TO TAKE IT OUT my professional image is crumbling AAAAAAAAGH

I was like "how can I make this DIO core. Oh random ass bird that functions as a callback to Pet Shop even though that makes no sense 👍"

How giorno feels after keeping it all inside. And telling no one about The Problem (it was bad when Trish did it but when he does it it's fine ✨of course ✨)

I like to imagine Distruzione as like. This found family full of evil fucked up idiots and the impressionable minors they have dragged behind them. Therapy would have saved them but none of them would ever think to get it because in their own eyes there's nothing wrong with any of them.

Boss makes me so crazy bro he could've been a good person. He could've taken any of the many upsets he's had in his life and tried to change for the better. But NOOOOOO !! HEAVEN FORBID !! He's so lost in his image of himself that he doesn't realize people did love him and were trying to help him all his life, even if those people weren't the ones he wanted to be loved by so badly :( aaagh

It's the thought that he was a kid once too that makes me so sad. Who trained him to be this way. ough

Oh yea he's not a Bible person. Only god he listens to is himself #egotistical

That is true about him actually. He's simultaneously self obsessed and unable to look himself in the mirror. He was never good enough as a kid and now he has to make sure no one else feels good enough because he's an immature bitch that still hasn't gotten over his childhood trauma or whatever. Maybe he thinks if he can become Good Enough (that is, Better Than Everyone Else) his trauma will undo itself? Hah. Idiot.

aroace van... I see it tbh. He doesn't care about anything except for the few people he likes and the stuff he likes so I could see him being somewhere on that spectrum. Fun fact Sammy is canonically aromantic

hell yea! see you next Tuesday!!!

[caramelpenguin]

thanks @phneltwrites and @in-amor-veritas for the tag <33

1.How many works do you have on AO3?

28!

2. What’s your total AO3 word count?

121,770. It doesn't feel as much compared to other writers. I try and add stuff into my chapters (like, to my descriptions( but maybe i'm just a person of a few words🤷‍♀️

3. What fandoms do you write for?

Currently, YR. Am thinking of mayybe doing something linked to mlb&cn this summer, and i want to finish my kanthony wip (Vines of Time) hahah

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Hypothetical - MY BABY!!! I did not expect this fic to be liked. It was just a small idea that sprouted very quickly, and i don't think its my usual writing tone. i remember being surprised it was gaining kudos. i love wilmon and oranges.

words written down - my beloved drabble collection. some of these, i'd love to expand or write more for. theres something so freeing about drabbles tho. <3

What Does Love Feel Like? - i cant read this fic, its from 2021 😭 it feels like I tried too hard with it. a lot of it is Meliodas' internal thoughts, but i prefer writing fics where the characters are doing something.

I Am A Gentleman - kanthony pining for each other but refusing to acknowledge it xoxo

Vines of Time - ahhhhhh, this fic is really important to me. i still have my outline for it. i want to finish it 😭again, my writing feels different. i kinda miss this tone.

5. Do you respond to comments?

Yeshhh!! I'm slow and I procastinate and I squeal when I read comments and then forget to respond, but I do try. Comments are my fuel, and I get soo happy when i read any.

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

....none? Monster is currently unfinished, and i don't want to spoil the ending.... it's not going to be sad (?), but out of all of them probably the one thats the most ambiguous. (If u havent watched the film, then PLS DO I BEG. its directed by Koreeda, and his films are stunning).

oh, wait. 157 is unfinished, but that will not have a happy ending, as expected.

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

Hypothetical? love drunk and we're never sober? most of them actually?

8. Do you get hate on fics?

not on ao3. i got hate once after i wrote a drabble on tumblr for the bridgerton fandom. hmph. i scrapped the idea and wrote it for YR instead hehe.

9. Do you write smut?

I AM TRYING TO! I WANT TO!😭😭

10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?

well. depends what you count as a crossover - i've written drabbles with characters in a different universe, but not a crossover where the characters of one universe and another meet etc.

Monster might count?

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

not that im aware of!

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

nope

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

hahahah, i started one years ago (nnt x aladdin). the document is still there somewhere, but its collecting dust.

14. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

oh fuck😭maybe one of my nnt ones? I think, maybe, I could finish them if i rlly put time to it. Im just a rlly fucking slow writer :(

e.g. The Eight Blessings is SO DEAR TO ME, but it'll be hard to finish because i have such big hopes and dreams for it and i write like a snail.

15. What are your writing strengths?

idkidkidkidkidk how to answer this abkladsofcjmr.

okay- maybe this: I relate to a lot of my writing. Almost every fic (some of my drabbles) I've written, or at least my favourites, has an aspect of me buried in there somewhere (sometimes its obvious e.g. ember in the shadow + drowning on dry land. the first chapter of love drunk and we're never sober literally happened two days before i made it into a wilmon fic. you don't need a reason is me needing to project. i wrote pierced because my nose piercing hurt lmao).

writing is often my escape/ my way to process something. so idk if this counts as a strength, but maybe the fact that there's an element of truth/vulnerability somewhere? man. idk.

16. What are your writing weaknesses?

i'm bad at digging into a character's emotions through the writing. there are beautifully crafted metaphors and emotions that can be revealed to a reader when we dig into a character's mindset (cos sometimes not listening to show dont tell is hella effective), but I find it really difficult to stop the action and write about how the character is feeling.

I'm also bad at writing the moments in between. the 'mundane' moments if u will. it feels like i have too many time skips sometimes lol.

17. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?

its cool. i like it when peopple atleast try to make sure the translation is correct. depending on the fandom ur writing for, it may be more effective. also, why the characters are saying it/ who they're talking to. people switch languages in rl all the time.

18. First fandom you wrote for?

hahaha when i was small i wrote a harry potter fanfic about the marauders (like, actually physically wrote a quarter of the fic in my notebook) that i never typed and publlished. the first i PUBLISHED is not on ao3, but a different site, and i am not going to say hahaa.

19. Favorite fic you’ve written?

AFGNHAFIANASPFIO????

like i said, a lot of my fics are important in different ways. i'll pick one from the main three fandoms i've written for...

The Eight Blessings - because i have such an incredible story and message in mind, i just need to write ittttt....

Vines of Time - because it was the first time I could process stuff that had happened in real life in a fanfic, and im so glad bridgerton s2 gave me that chance. i also quite like my writing tone in it.

and from YR,....fuck um?!?! perhaps ember in the shadow. It's probably the second quickest fic ive written. theres nothing in that fic (like with Vines of Time) that hasnt happened/ been felt by either me or a friend of mine. i think two people commented how it linked to an interview(s) omar had done where he talked about the racism he endured growing up, which surprised me bcos i wasnt even thinking abt his experiences when i wrote the fic. i like the part 2 of it aswell tbh (drowning in dry land).

idk who hasnt been tagged, so i apologise if u already have been: @saynomorefic @skibasyndrome @larrylover3000 @moonlightfrogsandkisses @unfortunate17 @purplehoodiesandclementines

[fatuismooches]

FUCK I TOTALLY FORGOT TO SEND YOU AN ASK ABOUT THE FIC... i just got hit full force but like 89831 different fucking projects all at once MY BAD POOKIE BUT UGHHHHHHH oh my god.... part 2??? yes.. all of it is soooo YESS

YESS you visualized everything what you've been talking about how reader would react when they first wake up after centuries and honestly hella realistic EVEN THOUGH I JUST WANNA HOLD READER AND KISS THEIR FOREHEAD 😭😭😭

reader interacting with the segments has my HEARTTT oh my god.. especially omega.. he's SUCH A DEVIOUS MOTHERFUCKEGUJK,,, also reader naming the segments UGHHH i adore that idea so much pleaseee ,, i love how the segments who didn't give a shit suddenly changed their minds when reader said they wanna give them names... THE SWITCH UP AND THE IMMEDIATE DENIAL...

READER MEETING BABY ZANDY ,,, FUCKINGG hell got me sooo soft i wanna hold baby zandy and treat him soo nicely 🥹🥹

ALSO YESS omgg,,, this part has me sooo fucking soft like reader making friends??? with the other harbingers??? i love it... omg they'd be such good besties with columbina,, i think pantalone helps reader adjust to present time as well, especially with it comes with money or the economy (if you ever ask him about it)

but oh.... to top it all off nicely, you gotta sneak in some subtle angst!!! smh... (im so proud of you tho!! like yasss sis feed me sad shit >:333) poor scara and reader :( i think they would've gotten along if reader wasn't dottore's lover n' scara wasn't dottore's experiment ,,,

ALL IN ALL. fuck you pookie im not excited for the next two parts (im kidding I AM IM JUST... NOT READY... pleas epost it next year so i'll be ready enough thank you /jjj) NO SERIOUSLY THIS TIME,, THIS WAS SOOO GOOOD and i love it so much, really popped off honestly (evil laughs because it's dottore)... like im soo happy to see how much you've grown esp thru writing !!!

have a good day pookie, im going back to my grave where i died for the next few days 💗💗

ALSO I WAS GONNA SEND IN ANOTHER DOTTORE IDEA but i fucking forgot again. FUCKS SAKE i hate not writing shit down...

POOKS DONT EVEN WORRY!! Just make sure to take care of yourself ok?? School can really be an ass i understand-

BUT OMG GRENFRG AHHH YOU'RE MAKING ME SMILE TOO MUCH POOKIE AHHWQ I'm so happy you liked it 🥺 BUT NGL I WANNA GIVE READER THE BIGGEST HUG TOO 😭 i put them through too much don't i 😭 dw they will be getting Dottore comfort next chapter!!

Bro i love writing Omega as a devious mf so much 😭 IM SO GLAD U LIKED THAT PART BC I WAS GIGGLING TO MYSELF ABT HOW THEY DGAF ABT THINGS BUT THEN SUDDENLY THEYRE INTERESTED WHEN UR A PART OF IT

AND YESSSS READER MAKING FRIENDS RAHHHH that part was probably really long for a Dottore fic but. i feel like having friends is so important and fragile reader really deserve some niceness in their lives 🥺 AND OMG NOW THAT I THINK ABOUT IT. Fragile reader would be freaking blown away from inflation. i don't know how prices were four hundred years ago but they would probably be shocked to their core when they see how much expensive things are now?? imagine fragile reader trying to stop Dottore from buying things for them because of how expensive things are now, and they're having flashbacks to being a broke Akademiya student 😭 And Dottore is just honestly finding it amusing to see you freak out and beg him to save his money (it's okay, he's a Harbinger he's loaded) (as long as he's not spending it on experiments)

BUT YEAH MAYBE IN AN ALTERNATE UNIVERSE... reader and Scara could have been friends :( we'll never know... but yasss i will continue to feed you sad shit >:) hehe I CANT WAIT TO POST THE FINAL PART!! ngl the ending of the fic was like. the first thing i wrote for it because it hit me and i was like i CANT forget this. im telling you pookie its gonna be pretty juicy. BUT THANK YOU YOU'RE BEING SO KIND AHHH it's really sweet of you. thank you for being here for so long in my writing journey (and my descent into Dottore madness) ily 🥺

[warritb]

ok ok I'mma send you this ask simply to prompt you to infodump about your most recent hyperfixations. that's how socializing works right

you give me something i like to talk about i will talk my ass off about it. im a bomb of information who will go off at any mention of something i enjoy. i can do some summaries tho so i dont take 20 years off your life!

main hyperfixation (for like over two years now) has been dnd and ttrpgs. i love em. incredibly good creative output for me and i love making stories with my friends and watching the stories other people make. the power of games like these are immesurable and i cant picture my life nowadays without them, its actually kinda nuts lol

i havent really had much time recently to dive into new things because of end of semester university bulk, but a couple things come to mind that i wanna talk about. first is a little game called risk of rain 2 that got a new update this week! new dlcs!! and a billion bugs!!! gearbox fucked up bad but i still love the game and have been enjoying it for a couple months now. i put 100 hours into it within a month of buying it a while back. its such a crazy game and i cant recommend it enough, but maybe wait for a patch for the absolute bonkers game breaking bugs.

another thing thats been helping me keep my sanity through the end of the semester has been celeste speedrunning! celeste is my favorite game of all time, its so special, its so fun, and i absolutely adore it. i replayed it and tried playing som modded maps but im pretty bad at the game all things considered, and speedrunning was the easiest type of content i could do like on switch. had an absolute blast chipping my time down, current pb sits at a 43:55 iirc, and im happy with that. i grinded runs with a friend doing races and it was really awesome! i love celeste so much, i wanna pick up runs again when im less busy.

i guess the last thing ill mention that ive been fixated on has been heathers the musical. i watched it like 2-3 weeks ago and have not been able to get it off of my mind. ive relistened to the soundtrack more times than i can count, have rewatched the musical like twice now, and have been getting constant ideas for art about it, as well as dumping to my friends about every piece of symbolism in lyrics, music and rhythm between songs. its insane how much ive latched onto that musical

i guess thats all ill mention for now. ive been drawing, working on comic and animation projects, but havent had much free time to work on those. anyway, i spent 15 minutes writing this!

[ekwolfwood]

Happy New Year I wanted to be back and I actually had a post about the bad things AND the good things complete with photos but it fucking uuhhhhhhhhh broke? So. Yeah. I'll try again but nooo, no photos for me i guess.

but anyways HELLO WORLD, MY QUEUE IS ACTUALLY ALMOST DEAD I HAVE BEEN ACCIDENTALLY AVOIDING THIS PLACE FOR REASONS UNKNOWN EVEN TO ME.

but yeeeeah about that 2023. its been a ~real bad year~ huh, or was it just me? Thought I'd throw up a little end ofthe year wrap up, but have been putting it off because a lot of it sucked.

Between multiple deaths in the family, covid still doing its plaguebearing thing, so much fucking stress, worsening symptoms and endless doctor visits and even worse fatigue thats left me in bed most of each week, im... it seems like i got nothing done.

But it wasnt all bad! I'm trying to think on all the things i did this year (and a LOT of things i acquired this year i did... a lot of retail therapy for the first time in my life really???)

-I cant believe i got to see a Rick Riordan Q&A live, like, it seems like AGES ago but was only this year???? It was a genuine bucket list item for me

-i started drawing again??? And im kinda improving???? Id like to share some of it one day somewhere?? Scary.

-got to dip my toes back into cons again! Only the safe/outdoor ones, but it was nice seeing folks again, despite some drawbacks (like AN being 40°C and witnessing a real stupid truck crash, and Yeti being nothing but stress overall and causing some ~brand new (old) symptoms~)

-I started my new life of cosplaying my own OC's over other things. Being Virtue (my dnd pastel barbiecore nightmare child) was absolutely freeing, i cant wait to make him 7 million new outfits

-especially because i got to do a freaking location shoot at a super cool, very out of the way waterfall, with a reflecting pool. i cant wait to bring so many things there

-also did a waterfall tour of Owen Sound. soooooo many dnd/dragon age/etc shoot ideas

-im also saving up for a few dream dragon age costumes, and its gonna be like uhhhhh.... $500ish worth of scalemail? (for two seperate projects)

-speaking of dragon age, i got alex into inquisition and i've become a nightmare about it again im not sorry

-alex and i went halvsies on thigh high boots that are 100% for my Lavellan, because he's a thot and deserves them

-tell me not to spend another like $150cdn on the official shirts. theyre just. so SOFT. they are a pure sensory joy.

-i bought so many cardigans from independent artists, on preorders. and like none of them are here yet but next falls gonna be 👌👌👌

-i have a lolita problem. got to wear one of my fanciest to the cherry blossoms at the height of my pain flares back in the spring! i now have two new dresses on top of that! there's a third im eyeing right now to go with one of my new cardigans! its a real problem y'all 😂

-but by far my biggest and best decision was i saved up for two solid years and was able to buy myself A FREAKING PS5 without breaking budget at all?????? I'm genuinely proud of myself, this was the exact opposite of an impulse buy??? even got to gift a friend the CoD game that came with it, because i was never gonna touch that lol

Next year better keep up the good things, and no new fucking symptoms. Also, depending on the Yeti news, im not letting myself be that fucking stressed this time around.

[tojikai]

hiiii!!! very late of me to say this but maligayang kaarawan lodicakes mamser!

and i just wanna say thank you for yet another spectacular update for sundered! i almost shrieked at the mall when i saw the update lol i ended up reading it in public while we were waiting for our food.

im so amazed at how you wrote not only the plot but also the characters, it never ceases to amaze me how you write each characters' flaws. i particularly resonate with y/n's reaction to toji mentioning his late wife. i know that ppl dont mean it the bad way when they say stuff abt how this person is better at this and that but sometimes i cant help but feel a lil upset. this might just be me being a bit bias given how similar i am with y/n but i think that's what makes y/n a well-written character aside from satoru, toji and naomi (i do not condone what naomi did btw but props to you for writing a character that gave the plot so much feelings and complexity because it mirrors what real life situations are)

im quiet relieved when i saw the prev ask i almost cried 😭😂 i did said in my previous asks that i am not rlly rooting for anyone as long as y/n, yui and megumi gets their well-deserved good ending but :'D at this point i'm always switching to satoru or toji as the endgame (honestly im rooting for toji more despite satoru's redemption www he might have been harsh to y/n abt his late wife and projecting on y/n but they ended up talking about it properly in the latest chapter which made me rlly happy).

regardless of my opinion to who will end up with who, im looking forward to the end! thank you so much for writing this piece 😭❤️ there's never a day that im not waiting for updates. take care!

hiii this is beautiful, thank u so so much for the kind words and for the greetings🥺💕 i like how u pointed out yn's feelings. it really can't be helped. even if it wasn't the intention of the person, it still hurts when it enters that 'comparison' zone :(( especially with their situation. both yn and toji have their reasons and i hope i was able to explain that well </3 again, thank u so so much ~!! take care

[onlyswan]

i am SO SORRY for how long this message will be

dearest art,

please forgive me i’m literally just copying and pasting my thoughts about dreamboat part 2 from my rb tags (from my other account) so !! i just cant stop thinking about it and you deserve all the compliments in the world.

while reading i was just thinking about how the phrase in another life is one of the most cruel things to exist. everything you could’ve been, and all these versions of you exist; but you’ll probably never meet.

“in another life i would have really liked just doing laundry and taxes with you”

“in another universe we’re sitting across from each other at the kitchen table, writing a grocery list”

i also immediately thought of taylor swift’s songs cardigan & peter!! especially these lyrics and how they parallel each other:

tried to change the ending, peter losing wendy // forgive me peter, my lost fearless leader

i knew i’d curse you for the longest time, chasing shadows in the grocery line // forgive me peter, please know that i tried; to hold onto the days when you were mine

- the goddess of timing, once found us beguiling (from peter) THIS ONE RIGHT HERE!!!!

here are all the lyrics from cardigan that encapsulate the feelings i had while reading:

- i knew you’d linger like a tattoo kiss; i knew you’d haunt all of my what-ifs, the smell of smoke would hang around this long

- playing hide-and-seek, and giving me your weekends

- your heartbeat on the High Line, once in twenty lifetimes

- you drew stars around my scars, but now im bleeding

i could literally talk about the song peter and how a majority of the lyrics fit so well with the dreamboat characters:

- and sometimes it gets me, when crossing your jet stream; we both did the best we could do underneath the same moon, in different galaxies

- cause love’s never lost when perspective is earned

- promises oceans-deep, but never to keep

if the timing was right, if life didn’t cast its cruelties. nothing is more devastating than knowing you’ve found the right person, but the timing was just never right; its out of your reach now. all those what-ifs that haunt in the middle of the night. i hope whatever happens to dreamboat jungkook and oc, that its kind and they can finally, one day, be at peace.

now im just rambling and projecting but to give you the tldr: rip my heart out why don’t you lol. but in all sincerity, this was so beautifully written and such a bittersweet story that i will be thinking about for a long time. as always, tysm for sharing your gift with us all, its a privilege and honour to see <3

sending you all my love!! 🌱💌✨

my heart is bursting and i want to squeeze you in the biggest bear hug😭🫂❤️

“in another life” “in another universe” were invented by hopeless but hopeful lovers in my head </3 the way it speaks of regret and/or longing that can only be cured by imagining themselves across time and space 😭 so gutwrenching and cruel truly. the second example!!!! </3 they could’ve been that

okay so i finally listened to peter and you said were gonna grow up and you were gonna come find me + i won’t confess that i waited but i let the lamp burn 🥲 really hit me hard along with the ones you shared. except dreamboat!jk was told not to wait and well…

i hope whatever happens to dreamboat jungkook and oc, that its kind and they can finally, one day, be at peace.

crying like a baby </3 they deserve the absolute best in life and i hope life could be gentler with them truly

🥹🥹🥹 and i’m so grateful to all of you for dedicating your precious time to reading my works. it makes me so happy and so honored. love you to bits and pieces!! 💖🔐

Entry 28

07/11/2023 00:24

Well I got to talk to her yesterday.. but I dunno the dopamine doesnt last long, especially since the conversation wasnt that long and had an abrupt ending.. as usual

Is it too much to ask for a gotta go message? so at least i have some peace of mind? maybe it was urgent, i shouldnt just demand stuff out of her.

I am getting a bit scared of this pattern though, 1 day without texting, then 3 then 4.. Is she bored of me? is she just doing the same as D and feigning interest to be nice? No she wouldnt, she cares way too much to be just faking it.. but why is she texting less and less… why is the waiting period increasing more and more, im scared it grows too large, of not being able to handle too long without seeing her, i was already miserable at 4 days, whatll happen with a week, or 2, or a month… maybe itll stay like this, and ill be able to last for that long better, even if i miss her.

But i guess enough about her… I have a report for a project that I have to partially do.. which sucks as usual…… fuck i cant do this.. i cant stop thinking about her, I got a pair of pictures of her and shes so fucking pretty. I really wanna have a videocall.. not even that I really want some physical touch, I just want some confort, to be able to vent to her, well this i might be able to do when the opportunity arises, but still, i wish I could grow closer to her, but its a bit hard since we talk so little now and the 9000km distance between us. Fuck just thinking about when she texted me in class, feeling like someone cared about me, it feels like such a distant memory now even though it was 2 weeks ago, her being happy i got off earlier and telling me to go to the bathroom to do lewd stuff……shes not just using me for sexting right?.. great another thing to be anxious about….fuck but it might be true…she mentioned she could talk later yesterday but stopped talking after 2 hours and never got back.. fuck im just a fucking bootycall arent i.. fuck why did i have to think of this fuck i cant believe it nonnononononono please no i was staring to trust her pls let me be happy with her i dont want this pls dont do this to me fuck why did i have to think of this fuck i cant handle this fuck pls no

dammit this is matching fucking everthing. the big fucking pauses, not reading my bio and now this.. i cant believe it. its true isnt it… fuck me….this is what i get for procrastinating on that stupid report, another source of anxiety…..pls come back J.. i miss you

[candy8448]

So i write fics and do art and for me, its just very spontanious. Sometimes rhat does mean i struggle a lot with longer projects, but if im really passionate about it, i will usually push through, like my sksw wall scroll

For fics, it is usually just a oneshot idea that i have randomly. I usually note it down but i don't really write up any of them. It's only really when i have a clear image iin my head of where i want it to go that i will write it up, but usually i just post the fic idea cuz i dont have rhat connection to an idea rhat makes me want to write it fully.

In my fic, old friend, it just started as an idea of thinking of the sword spirits in the master sword, j also just wanted to talk about my headcanons, then it formed into a scene where Legend and Sky are talking about Fi. I didnt know what the conversation sounded like, i just liked the idea. So then i wanted to write a setup paragraph or so, but then it just spiralled into putting in all my headcanons that i have for Sky and post sksw, and now i have ideas for Wars and Wild that im gonna post in other chapters.

For fics, i just write everything in my notes app. Before ive had one folder in there for fics, but it turned into a mess of some notes with iideas and notes and some being actual fics, so then i just got another notes app purely for writiing up the propper fic. I then just copy and paste into Ao3's rich text and also maybe post it here. I do also have a real life notebook that i write my shorted fics into because i just like to have that physical copy of it. I used to have these in school because iit doesnt allow phones and i would write fics during lessons, but now i tend to just wait till i get home to write diirectly onto my phone, or i write the fic on scrap piieces of paper when i cant wait and then i stick them inti the notebook

For art, its also just ideas. Well sometimes im just doodling, then i have a doodle that looks really good, and then i want to draw it fully, like my Zelda's awakening piece which started as a doodle in my science lesson. I personally love the look of sketches so most of them tend to stay as pencil sketches. I also prefer traditional art so ii usually only draw traditional when i can. Ideas just come and then i note them down if i dont have motivatiion to deaw it now, like animatic ideas and other full piiece ideas i have. For animatics i usually just draw a small storyboard because animation is hard and i spend so long on them that just doing a storyboard is satisfactory enough now.

I sometimes have an iimage in my head, so i will either nite it down, or so a scribly sketch of it, and eventually will flesh it out, like my song of the hero piece

I draw digitally iif i know my tradiitional art skills just won't work, if i need very specific liines, since my traditional style is very sketchy. If i want vedy specific colours or lighting or effects, i tend to draw digitally, like my "i am still your zelda" piece. But i tend to opt for the traditional drawing rather than digital.

I also draw on my phone if the laptop doesnt work, or if i judt dont want to bother with unpacking the drawing tablet or i judt want to get a neat idea down or a piece that really doesnt need me to be as persice as i am on the tablet, like my alttp/albw anniversary drawing

Obviously not everything becomes a full piece, and sometimes sketches i will consider full pieces, i just draw until im happy with it, and things i intend to be a full (maybe coloured) piece end up looking so much better as just a sketch or a pencil drawing instead, like my the past returns comic

I use a mechanical pencil and well as mostly my set of like 12 colour pencils (since ive gotten pretty decendt at getting specific colours with them) and sometimes depending on the feel or just fun of it, i will use watercolour or alcohol markers.

Digitally i have a wacom drawing pad which connects to my laptop that costs £50 and i use firealpaca since it is really good and free. I use ibis paint on my phone and a pen that happened to have a rubber bit on the back that makes it act like a stylus.

My art style is constantly changing so im always trying to figuireit out. Especially my digital art, every piece is drawn in a very different way and its hard to keep track of or fiogure out or draw something the same way twice

I went on a tangent, im sorry =_=

OK, so I was inspired and now I wanna start a bigger conversation and I wanna know: fic writers, comic makers, au creators, etc. how do you do it? How do you go from plot bunny or story idea to completed chapters/story/comic update? What's your process? What programs do you use? Do you draft stuff? Outline? Storyboard? Do you chart or sketch? How do you settle on characters and characterizations? How do you plot (or do you)? I wanna know all the nitty gritty details. It's just so interesting because everyone does it so differently.

Hop🍀

It started as the cliché love story about falling in love with your very own bestfriend

Which, actually turned out great??

His Zacian/Zamazenta loves you as much as it's trainer does, and is willing to protect you from anything

Probably because it observed Hop being protective over you, and proceeding to do the same

Sure it might took a toll on him when you defeated him on the championship semi-finals, but he wanted you to be happy more than anything

He's such a sweetheart even if he doesn't show it much

The type to appreciate small little things, especially when it comes from you

"Let's camp together!!"

You camped together

He got chased by a wild steelix whilst trying to gather data for his research later

His Zamazenta/Zacian was busy playing with your own legendary

*from the distance* "GAH! HELP!"

You ran after him and calmed down the wild steelix

Then you walked to him and checked if he got any wounds or scratches, which leads you to cupping his face gently with a worried look on your face

Hop's blushing

He's freaking out inside

You didn't notice the tint of blush dusting his cheeks,which gradually reddens with each second that passes

"im okay, dont worry" he tried his best reassuring you

Even though he's blushing, he proceeded to press his forehead gently against yours, closing his eyes and smiling

oh no he's cute

You're blushing

haha blushy reader

You let him do his thing, its somewhat calming

He's warmm

His hands are calloused, different from yours; you just remembered this when he placed his hand on top of yours while you were checking for his wounds from before

This just shows how much he's been working off to reach the champion title

And yet he's completely alright with you taking the spotlight

After all, you're his shining star

And he wouldn't have it in any other way

You let him borrow your champion cape

And he lets you borrow his labcoat

It fits just right with you! And it got his scent, which calms you down whenever you're feeling anxious

When you wear his labcoat, you're 1000000000% irresistible to his eyes

"Don't be so adorableee" he said as he pulled you into a hug and burying his face in your neck

You only laughed softly at his reaction. He was blushing too,,,

You often waited for him to finish his lab work, even if it's until late hours

He's a really hard worker, no wonder he stayed until late

"Im sorry for making you wait"

He looks exhausted, but tried his best to pull a bright smile, not wanting to worry you

You only gave him a warm hug, which surprised him at first before he hugs you back and proceed to walk you to your house

💓💓💓 < your heart

Comfort time

There's usually some jerks who'd tease you for being the champion, or flirt with you in an impolite way

If Hop caught on to this, he would politely ask them to leave

If they still dont understand, his legendary comes out of his pokeball and growl at them

He'd ask them one more time to stop bothering you, but this time, with a menacing smile that says "stay here any longer and you wont get to see another daylight"

Then he'd check up on you, asking if you're alright, if they did anything to you or whatnot

Hed wrap his arms around your waist and drape his labcoat over you, because he knows his labcoat always manages to calm you down

"It's okay, you're okay, everything is alright now, c'mere"

You let him hug you as you feel safe around him, and you two stayed in that position until you feel alright again

💕💕

———☆️

Bede🍰

He's not the best at showing affection but at least he tries

You help him come out with quizzes for his gym challenge

And sometimes joke about the poses he makes when practicing

Sometimes, he gets reminded that you're the champion of Galar and he's way out of your trainer level

Which actually motivates him to become the strongest gym leader there is by pushing past his limits

"I'll show you how strong fairy types can be"

He said to himself as he was thinking about you

People kept misunderstanding fairy types after all, and thats a big mistake

You appreciate his efforts in maxing out his strength, and you show it by coming to his fairy stadium whenever he battles a challenger

You texted him "good luck, I'll be cheering 4 u!❤️❤️👍" before his matches start

And you looked at his direction after sending the message

He has just gotten your message, and opened it

Which leads to him blushing furiously as he covers his face with one of his hands

He took a deep breath and tried to regain his composure, only to fail miserably when he saw you looking at his direction with pure ambition and determined eyes as you grinned happily

All that i could say is, he's red as a beet

He wont lose this match, not when you're watching him.

He puts extra effort when you're watching his match, and made sure not to slip up. It'd be embarrassing if he did.

Opal notices this and only smiled seeing her successor acting out of his place whenever you're around

Opal knows something that you dont, and that's Bede's feelings for you

After his match ended, his Hatterene walked towards your direction, pulling you into a tight hug

You were surprised, but apparently Hatterene has grown to like you ever since she first met you

And when you look at Bede's direction, he was looking away with his arms crossed infront of his chest, visibly drowning in embarassment

,,,you wondered, is Bede projecting on his Hatterene or what,

Yes, yes he is

So you asked him if he also wants a hug, which of course he answered with "Why would i want a hug from someone like you? That'd be an insult to me"

You let go of Hatterene and hugged him anyways

He flinched when you hugged him, not knowing where to put his hands and just let them stay still in a defensive pose

Hatterene watched with a smile from behind you, seeing her master in such a flustered state was truly something new for the Pokemon

Not long after, Bede finally let his arms wrap around your waist, giving in to his subconscious and just hug you

he wanted to hug you anyways so thats a win win situation

You were actually surprised when he hugged you back

He smells nice!! Like perfume?? Cologne?? Floral scent

His Hatterene decided to join in and wrapped her arm around you both, making you all hug even more tightly

Bede cant handle this well.

No, not at all.

His face was really red and its hot— in all honesty, its cute, but he was burning

"Why do you have to embarrass me like this?"

You buried your face in his neck, which startled him as he couldn't think at all

"Y-you!!"

He feels nice and soft, so you're not planning to let go any sooner, likewise with Hatterene.

Bede's mind: ASDFGHJKL????—GODDAMMI—

OKAY NOW COMFORT TIME

His true nature would come out when you're not feeling yourself or when people would makw you feel like shit

"Hey.."

His face shows concern, but it still his usual look of coldness— however, his actions are warm despite his cold features

He'd let you wear his coat as he battles anyone who dared to hurt you

"Are you alright now..?"

He cupped your face and made you look at his face, swiping off the tears that stained your face with his thumbs delicately

He hated seeing you cry, and he'll try better next time to make sure you didn't cry

———☆️

Leon🌟

He's kind at all but sometimes he's just... "???????"

Training!! Dates!!

More like battle tower dates because he really admires your strength as a champion

Occasionally, he'd visit your house and check up on you, wondering if you're free for the day for "quality time"

At first, he was surprised to see one of the legendaries answering the door for you

And he couldn't resist to ruffle it's hair

your legendary on the other hand was kind of irritated by it

So it let out a displeased howl

Which leads you to come down stairs and see who is it

"L—leon?"

He looked up and greet you with a goofy grin as your legendary returned to your side, walking with you

He treats you like a gentleman, and sometimes is very strict with your training regimen

In which you usually whine about because you're the current champion and you have no business listening to him

But he'd swoon you with lovely words

And you would easily fall for it

you hate this

You hate him

No you dont

You love him, you could never hate a goofball like him anyways

Hey did i ever mention Leon's sense of direction is shitty

You went on a date in Wyndon a couple of times and he still gets lost everytime

"Ah!! Hey—....."

"Im lost again aren't i?"

He tried to find his way back to you but got surrounded by paparazzis

Even if he's not the current champion

You saved his butt since he couldn't say no to the people and his fans

He said thank you and hugged you, lifting you up to the air before pulling you close to him

This only made you laugh softly as you hugged him back, letting your fingers comb his thick lavender like hair

His body is warm and comforting, you really like his cuddles and hugs

He came into your house one time when you didn't answer his calls or messages, only to find you drown in your anxiety and self loathing

He pulled you in his arms and let you cry on his shoulder until you're all done and alright again

He'd draw circles over your back and tell you reassuring words— tell you that you're more than enough and he's grateful to have you here, alive and well

Your Zacian/Zamazenta got out of it's pokeball and helped you in calming you down too by giving you small licks on your knee

It'd whine whenever you're sad and climb onto your bed, nudging your arm afterwards as if it's asking what's wrong

You're lucky to have them both whenever you need them the most, and they're lucky to have you

Raihan 🐲

It's finally the Character y'all been waitin for, dragon boi coming through

Okay serious talk here— Raihan is TALL

His hoodies makes you look smaller than you already are

You tried copying his "Gaooo~" pose a couple of times while wearing his hoodie

Its cutest thing he has ever seen his entire life

It makes him melt everytime

Okay aside from that, he's gentle and laid back, even if his personality is quite the opposite when he's on battle

He's cLINGY ASF

Don't forget his fangs, never forget his fangs

You're actually curious about his fangs since the first day you saw him

And he lets you touch it whenever you like

Youre still curious, because what the hell, its so cool

The first day you saw him after defeating him in a match and gain your gym badge, he immediately took an interest in you and your strength

"Hey Challenger!"

He called you before you tried to take your leave, gaining your attention

He then asked you if you want to practice with him next time, and have a rematch when you've become the champion

You agreed and exchanged numbers

What can i say, he spams you like?????? A lot

And casually sends you pictures of him and his duraludon

You love his dragons, especially flygon

Flygon loves you too, and one time it wanted to come with you

Raihan lets you keep his Flygon and you send him pictures of you with it

He sends emotes of duraludon crying, wanting to join you and your fun trip with Flygon to grab the Champion title

After you took the Champion title, Raihan greeted you with a big hug

And you hug him back with no hesitation

"Congratulations, may i have a selfie with the new Champion?"

He asked in a teasing manner, letting you down on your feet as you nodded

You took a selfie selfwith him numerous times before he posted it to his social media

He captioned 'First person to get a selfie with the new Champion'

He took pride in that, and some of his fans were jealous that you managed to get a selfie with him

From that day onwards, he'd have casual selfies with you, sometimes hilarious one and sometimes its just for showing off

You didn't mind it really, he's a celebrity anyways, so you understand why he does that

"Hey.. do stars have feelings"

It was three am what the fuck Raihan

You squinted at your screen seeing his message

"Why in the Galar would you be awake, dear Dragon tamer?"

You answered him

And immediately he answered "oh? The Champion is awake?"

You guys didn't sleep afterwards and was sending streaks of blurry selfies

It was fun and helped you cheer up

You got some of his blurry pics that he captioned "party rock in the house" when clearly its just him and his pokemons

What a goofball pt.2

You love him anyways shut up

Haha smol reader pt.2

Embers

Isuka x Portgas D. Ace

Summary:

A familiar face visits Ace a few hours prior his execution

Abandon all your hope, ye who enter here is scribbled on the dusty brick walls that surrounded a certain flame commander. Goosebumps raises in response to the cold air that swiftly caresses skin, a touch from the reaper himself, meaning to guide him into river Styx to what could be the heaven or the underworld. He had already forgotten the concept of time, the absence of sunlight making the difference of day and night blurry to those who are unfortunate enough to end up in impel down. The shackles made of sea stone continued to suffocate his wrist, cutting away the demon blood that circulated his weakened body.

He has no regrets, that's for sure.

Even though that shadows of death is near, he will wholeheartedly welcome it with open arms. As long as luffy is safe. As long as pops is safe. That is all that matters.

The sounds of footsteps nearing his cell snapped the freckled man from his thoughts. A warden he barely know hits the metal bars to alert him that a visitor has arrived to see him. He wasn't expecting one in all honesty, but if this visitor is able to reach impel down in such a short notice, perhaps the unknown guest is someone who has name and power in regards to the government.

And he was right.

There, in front of his cell is a woman with fiery hair he was too familiar with. Her once short locks has now reached her hips, gloved hand hiding the burnt scars that he used to kiss. Her eyes glowed sienna against the harsh lighting, and on her shoulders was the coat of justice that the navies wore with pride. She was not a mere ensign anymore by the way those medals hung against her crisp uniform but still, he knows, that she remained that kind and loving woman he met years ago.

"Isuka" he breathes, parched throat rasping her name instead.

"Its nice to see you again, Firefist" the redhead greets, arms crossing indignantly. "I never thought the day would come that I won't be happy to see you locked up in a cell"

"Fiesty as ever" he chuckled "Did you just visit me so that you could tell that joke?"

"No, not really" she stepped closer, eyes adjusting to meet the the prisoner's lonely gaze "I'm here to visit an old friend"

"We're not just friends, Isu" Ace cleared, the corner of his lips stretching to form a bitter smile.

"Call me Captain Isuka now, that nickname doesnt matter anymore" she answered, voice firm.

"You used to love it when I called you that"

"Damn it Ace, just stop!" the navy exclaimed, lone boot stomping against the ground. "All of that is in the past now. We made our choices! We took different paths that are polar opposites and there's nothing we can do to change it!" Tears began to form on the corner of her eyes, the naval biting her lips to prevent the waterworks from falling "This is not the time and place... I don't even know if there will be one. For once in your life, can you please let me say goodbye in peace?"

"I won't die Isu" Ace assured lovingly, "As long as my brothers can remember me, as long as you hold me in your memory I wont"

"But I don't want you to be a memory" Isuka broke "I want you alive. I want to see your bounty raise, I want to see the changes of your smiles in your damn wanted posters. I want you to live!"

"But it's too late now is it?" he retorted, brown irises gleaming sadly "I made my choice Isu. This is the life I wanted. The best thing you could do is keep pops and luffy safe"

"But what about me?! Did you even took the time to think what I wanted?! Why are you always so stubborn, Ace!" she snapped, gloved hands gripping the metal bars that separated her and her beloved "Your ears were always closed. You never listen to anybody! Now look at you! I can't even hold you. I cant even touch you let alone kiss you goodbye!"

Slowly, her knees fell to the ground, pained sobs echoing against the cold brick walls.

"You should've listened to me and became a warlord. That way, at least we have the slightest chance to be together"

"I... can't. I won't" the pirate answered, head held down guiltily "Even if you ask me now, my answer will be the same. That position is not for me, you know that more than anyone"

"And I respect that but still..." she inhales deeply, harvesting enough courage to quell the fire on her chest "I suppose I just have to suck it up and accept that this is not our time" she began, watery eyes meeting his "Maybe in another world we were meant to be happy. But not here. Not in this one. We were meant to meet each other but we are not fated to be together. And it hurts Ace! Its ripping me apart"

"I know" he answered, the flood on his cheeks starting "And it hurts me to see you suffer. This is my fault. Just forget about me and move on. You deserve to be happy"

"Don't ask me to move on as if that's an easy feat!" she yelled back, snot dripping from her nose "Do you think I have moved on already when we left each other years ago? For fuck's sake Ace, I never did! I won't be standing in front of you right now if I've already forgotten you. You are hard to forget! The happiness we shared before is tattooed in my mind and it surfaces no matter how much i suppress it!"

Footsteps echoed abruptly, indicating that the guard from before has returned to fetch the visitor. The redhead raises her hand, asking for a few more minutes in which the warden grumbled "two" before standing prostate on the side. Isuka darts back at the guilt ridden prisoner, memorizing the face that will soon depart the living world.

"I will not be in marineford Ace" she admitted, taking a step back from his cell "I'm not going to stand there and watch you die. Im not going to fight the people you hold on your heart dearly. I'll be home waiting until this nightmare ends"

She turned on her heels, preparing to leave.

"I am thankful to have met you. I am thankful that you loved me. I am thankful of the fond memories that you have given me. I know I shouldn't be saying this but... I do hope that your father will be able to save you. Goodbye, Firefist"

"Isu, wait!" he calls, making the navy captain stop on her tracks "Do you... Do you still love me?" he asked exasperatedly.

She gives him a gentle smile, eyes filled with a lonely light as she spoke.

"I never stopped loving you, Ace. And I will continue to love you no matter where you are"

There are eight more hours until Portgas D. Ace's execution. And right now, he realizes that he has one regret.

Okay before reading this, just in case, wait till 10 or like a decent time. ———— Good? Okay so like the NXX crew, with Animal Crossing (yall were talking about the 2020 hot games so) and like this is the future will it be like VR animal crossing? - Book

hi, Book!!! some things before i get started: 1) i saw this ask at 5am and misread it, 2) bc i saw it at 5am i cant stop myself from answering it at 8am, 3) ive never played New Horizons so this is gonna be VERY off in many places unintentionally and also intentionally, and lastly 4) how did i misread it?

i thought you said "NXX crew as Animal Crossing villagers"

and well, my brain already thought SO MUCH ABOUT THAT so imma go in that direction even if i understand what u really said, SORRY KJBJSDKF

MC is a a rabbit, artem is a bear, vyn is a deer, marius is a cat, and luke is a wolf. they, along with other villagers (celestine the ostrich, kiki the mouse, darius the lion, I COULD GO ON FOREVER), live on STELLIS ISLAND!!! away from the pressures of city life, everybody now has the time to focus on basically everything theyve been putting off, which, for the nxx boys, is basically their METRIC FUCKTON of pining for MC.

//cue animal crossing opening music

i like to imagine the nxx ac au as an idyllic kind of romantic comedy scenario also everybody is animals. theres no player character human but somebody is mayor/museum curator/tom nook/etc. (another chara from tot, not the ingame ac npcs bc im not strong enough to do crossovers omg).

actually kjsbfgjskJBJ WAIT marius still vaguely owns pax here and this whole island is basically a pax development thing and marius very often goes over to mc's house going "isnt this island great? arent i your favooooorite? do you wanna go to the beach because i got great desserts from the city----" and then luke comes over flailing a net around and "accidentally" herding a bunch of wasps towards marius

luke: oops, sorry marius!

marius: //animal crossing language screaming

luke: well, i guess he's busy then. mc, wanna go fruit picking :D

marius: //animal crossing language screaming but PISSED OFF NOW

mc does not want to go fruit picking while marius is running for his life, so mc and luke do save him together and then all three of them go to the beach and then go fruit picking together. all three of them have a great time, but marius and luke wont admit it to the other that they had fun in the other's presence (well, they wont admit it for now, theyll admit it eventually, every au of mine will end in found family whether they LIKE IT OR NOT)

vyn is very often at the island's museum, the nature parts, and whenever mc wants a little bit of a quieter time, all she has to do is go there and theyll both sit down on a bench in the butterfly exhibit and if she has any questions, all she has to do is ask to hear vyn explain in a gentle voice, his fluffy ears twitching (flustered) whenever mc nods or goes "oooh".

if mc wants a more cheeky museum experience, she can go ask marius to come with her and he'll go full art guide mode the entire time. she'll roll her eyes at marius' smugness but also feel her own kind of affectionate smugness when she sees marius' tail sway from side to side, happy and satisfied.

artem is most often found fishing by the rivers and the beach and mc is Very Bad at fishing and cant make much sense of the intricacies of fishing rods or reeling techniques, but artem always assures her that he enjoys being with her nonetheless. his normally stoic, intimidating face always softens whenever she sits down next to him on the shores, his bear nose adorably twitching in restrained happiness.

and luke always seems to be working on something. he and mc hang out a lot, but when they arent, she sees luke going around the island, tail wagging as he collects resources, terraforms land chunks, etc. mc knows that when luke is keeping a secret, he'll almost never tell her, so she starts investigating

mc: do you know what luke is doing?

artem: n....no....i do...not....

mc: youre a terrible liar skjdfsjd. vyn! what's luke doing?

vyn: a passion project of sorts :)

mc: that is an answer that tells me nothing, actually. MARIUS! what is luke up to?

marius: miss :(((( wouldnt you like to ask me what im up to :(((

mc: oh my god you guys

eventually what luke is working on does reach completion, and mc, led by the rest of the boys, is shown to a little secret picnic area in the island, big enough not just for two animals, but five. luke explains that he originally made this place as a gift for her but then //grumbling, luke realized that mc is happiest when theyre all together, so luke made some changes and luke doesnt get to explain past that because mc tackle hugs him in a rabbit hop of gratitude.

mc is so so so happy and the little picnic area becomes a wonderful little area for all of them to go to whenever they want to. there, under the clear skies, mc figures that maybe what they all want can be found in a place like this.

What is your favourite among your AUs?

very much citrus, ive been working on it ever since the end of january this year, it is such a passion project of mine. Ive never followed through with any sort of comic ive made in the past, so its a pretty big thing for me because i REALLY love working on it and i cant wait to get to some really exciting parts, and it makes me happy that other people like it and are excited as well, it keeps me going. i have been writing down a lot of ideas that i want to expand on and aaaaa im just so excited !!!!

but damn it if i havent already come up with another au i want to work on (my species swap au), i literally came up with the entire plot in one day and i wanna work on it SO BAD, but im probably just going to make some character art and write little blurbs of lore and stuff bc citrus is my main project and i cant work on two projects at once (<- im lying when i say that; i can, i just dont think i should) but yeah :)

[awsugar]

Hey I’m gonna give my two cents to the conversation if it’s okay.

A month or two ago I wouldn’t said NO WAY FRANK IS ALWAYS GONNA PUT OUT ANOTHER ALBUM UNTIL HES 80!!! But recently I have thought a lot about how the reunion tour has been pushed back for so long and he hasn’t put anything new out (except bloodnun of course but I’m talking about frank iero and the… stuff) OR put anything old back into focus, like he could’ve done some sort of live stream or whatever playing the songs from heaven is a place. I DO think that he’s always gonna make music and some of it will show up on our radar in the form of some project here or there (like bloodnun) but most will be under the radar (like producing or writing for/with other musicians). I also think that the MCR tour will be very very difficult for him. Because of the still on going restrictions and because of his injuries and it being just a LONG ass tour with lots of people and big venues and like… not what he has been doing in recent years at all. And then the tour is gonna end and he’ll need to like chill for a bit and I honestly sadly think that he’ll be done with touring for a good while after. He’s been good not touring for well over two years now and making music hidden in his basement and he seems to be good with that so…. Obviously I don’t want that to happen I want a new frank album so bad! But I really think it’s a possibility that the MCR tour will be the last of Frank Iero touring musician :/ it makes me feel truly sad and scared

There’s of course always hope that one day he’ll just have another stomachaches moment and he has all those songs he just wants to put out for people to hear! Or maybe he’ll be so pumped up after the MCR tour that he can’t wait to go back on the road himself! Or maybe Danzig asks him to be in the misfits. Or maybe Gerard pisses him off enough to drop an entire album 3 weeks after the MCR tour … who knows

Sorry this was long and rambling but I’m seriously scared about no more frank music but it might just be the reality

ahhh no i agree like those are my fears as well :( i agree with basically everything you said

of course like you also mentioned, i mean the mcr tour hasn't happened yet. and that experience has numerous potential outcomes wrt frank's future in music. like the truth is we really have no idea how the mcr tour is going to effect his like thoughts and desires as far as solo (non-mcr) projects. but i do think that at present, his plan might be to sort of retire post-mcr. BUT OBVIOUSLY THAT COULD CHANGE. like i hope i'm wrong but if i'm not wrong i hope that maybe the mcr tour changes his outlook idk.

but yea same im just really sad and scared about it :( i mean ive gone over 2 and a half years now since my last frank show. but the thought of never going to another one again??? devastating. i know i should want whats best for him and wish for him to do what makes him happy, and i DO. like if retiring and living out his life with his family is what he wants and is going to make him happiest then thats awesome and i do want that for him. (although i kind of doubt that he could go the rest of his life without going on tour and not feel extremely restless). but yea at the same time like. we will miss him sm....and i cant pretend i wouldn't be like horribly upset about it
