Absolutely no-one: (20 yr old) Kieran in this one scene I have vaguely planned out:

Gamefreak may give some odd haircuts but I can do w o r s e

Not me in my art phase after the Drayton in a snowsuit arc earlier haha lol

No actually though how do you write (I'll get back to it tomorrow if I can but it's so... hard. aaaaaa)

me after opening my google doc to write a single sentence

Haha... sometimes the hardest part for me when drawing comics is writing the damn dialogue. You gotta be brief enough to fit the panel yet somehow tell the story you wanna say. And a lot of times I can't think the words to make go go because my brain smol. ¯\(°_o)/¯

[aka-indulgence]

My writing kryptonite… idle talk when nothing plot/romance heavy is happening o(-(

[xiincun]

;; i am so eepy all of the time.... working in retail over christmas is so much

[hopalongfairywren]

I'm allergic to writing more than like 2k words at a time and no joke that took like several hours granted it was spur of the moment.

How I feel after writing the most painfully out of character, cringe dialogue for one of my most favorite specialest characters:

[alphacrone]

very glad i decided against pursuing a career in writing

[new-berry]

No. I already have a robot for Phil! (sort of! Don’t panic!)

My thoughts got inappropriate.

Phil would defiantly have to climb on his lap. Standing their dicks don’t line up. No. Nononono.

I have a LIST it is sacred and unless it’s (apparently) Tripps I am sticking to the list!

[shyday-ao3]

I swear, I no longer know how to form well-written sentences. It's actually physically painful. I have this urge to run around my house screaming.

(what if I can't ever write again?)

[yell0wsalt]

To those who read my fics, I’m telepathically sending the storyline to you…

Have you received it?

No?

You’re suggesting I actually write it down?

…

How could you say such a thing.

outlining hard

[ragnar0c]

I HAVE BEEN WRITING SO MUCH BUT NOT AT ALL

[the-eyes-of-andyserkis]

Alright brain, what's up my dude? Why you gotta be like this?

I want to write but I feel like I've barely touched chapter 4 in weeks and I thought this was going the be the easiest chapter because I had the most already written, but it feels like pulling teeth to get the words out (why can't I just Matrix this thing out of my brain? that technology should exist by now, right??). Everything I wrote in the past was only ever a one-shot, so this chapter to chapter thing is a new beast.

And it feels like there wasn't as much feedback on chapter 3 which, I legitimately haven't been worried about one way or the other up to this point, but suddenly this morning brain is like, "But what if...you did care." Maybe because it was the first really smutty chapter and I just wanted it to be good and I don't know if it was but listen friend, we are in our 40s and I do not appreciate feeling this way can you chill, please?

At least I know at this point in life that feelings wax and wane and I'll eventually move through it and continue writing eventually, but if this was LiveJournal I might be feeling *blank* or *emo*? (Didn't that used to be an option?) Oh man, if I still used LJ I would absolutely make a custom Andy mood theme.

Anyway my tummy hurts so I'm going to have some dandelion root tea and try to chill tf out maybe. ❤️

Okay, Pale King, I know, I get it, you want to have a mental breakdown because of the revelation I put upon you, but this is only like the third worst thing you'll experience in this chapter, come on dude, we have to move the plot along, we don't have time for this!
