Aaaand my laptop is fixed!!

I'm back! FINALLY! Canada Post is on strike, and my laptop got held up for a week extra due to it 😭😭 Being unable to access any of my accounts hurt a lot lol.

New chapters (to EBS and MDDBC) + responses to any questions I've gotten in the meantime coming asap!!!

one of my students shared this cool website where you can drill yourself on japanese conjugations: link

i looked at it myself and you can mess with options to choose if you want verbs, adjectives, which conjugations you want to practice, if you want furigana, etc. there's a bunch of stuff

apparently things can't go smoothly for me lol. im already a bit late in writing & posting the next chapters due to an unexpected weekend buut now i am sick :( just a flu, but enough to knock me out of work for a few days and while i can daydream and plan my writing as much as i please, actual words start to blend together when i type lol. next chapters on their way, just let me get through this!

last 会話テーブル i taught them some pet-related terms! 香箱座りする was definitely my favorite

[saltedpeppermintmocha]

somehow i've ended up at the point where both EBS and MDDBC are at KEY PIVOTAL chapters in the same week. what have i done. i'm writing/editing now but uh...oof

I imagine this is how Pili 2 looked to those closest to Mocha :0

[mochayoubi]

these websites are in japanese but if you click around you should be able to see a bunch of different examples of traditional japanese clothing throughout history:

日本服飾史

刀剣：日本の服飾史

you can also try googling these terms and see what comes up under images since these are some other common traditional japanese clothing (some are technically kimono/related to kimono but the english-speaking world doesn't quite define kimono correctly all the time...):

甚兵衛 (jinbei) 作務衣 (samue) 浴衣 (yukata) 袴 (hakama) 羽織 (haori)

also, you could try clicking through the wikipedia page for 和服 under the 種類 section. 付属品 is right underneath which lists out accessories.

hope that helps ^_^

ok. does anyone have any good refs and or websites for traditional japanese clothing BESIDES kimonos?? or at least can tell me names of other traditional japanese clothing please....

EVERYONE LOOK AT THIS ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ 

UGH my heart can't take it! You are so so talented! 🥺 You really brought this scene to life! Honestly, this conveys the emotional weight of the scene so well while also just being so incredibly well done!

I love the look in your MCs eyes, cause obviously she's crying but theres still that disbelief and shock that he's actually there, that she actually found him again after everything. And Sans, who has pretty much just broken down at seeing her again, trying to tell himself that she is actually there as well.

I just...thank you thank you thank you for blessing my eyes with this!

LAST ONE I SWEARRRRR
