Place your bets!

MERIDA!!!

I do this thing when I just call out a random time to intimidate my younger sibling, bonus points if it's super specific and it's in the night. Like if they annoy me, I'll just say '9:36!' and leave the room.

Silly Game Time: In honor of Pride Month ... Pick a crime! You have full legal immunity to commit that crime once for every time someone in your presence says, "Be gay, do crime!"

Which crime are you choosing? Keep in mind, people can still try to physically prevent you succeeding; they just can't seek legal action against you for it.

Shop-lifting 😈!

Writing is honestly so chaotic. I'm either lazy as hell and don't write for weeks or I'm suddenly spiked with adrenaline and write like a machine fueled with noodles and coke.

Silly Game Time: Would rather have to spend a solid 24 hours responsible for 100 duck-sized elephants ... or for 1 elephant-sized duck?

1 elephant size duck. I could you it as a bed. Why need 100 beds?

Whenever I receive negative (but completely valid) criticism:

Yes, thank you for your wrong opinion

Silly Game Time: Who are the protagonists of two stories you really enjoy (of any medium--novel, comic, movie, show, podcast, game, etc. including OCs if you like)? AND which of them would do better in an archery contest?

Hawkeye from the titular series and Kamala Khan from Ms. Marvel.

...I think I cheated with this one.

hi, I'm really loving your fics, I just wanted to know (if you at alright with sharing it) your writing routine. Like how do you balance school, how does your outline for fics look like, are you a pen and paper girl or do you use google docs (or notes app).

omg thank you!

As for my writing routine, let me tell you this: I VALUE WEEKENDS WITH MY LIFE. and holidays. And literally anytime that I'm free. They are only times where I'm free from school to research, outline (rarely) and write so yeah.

I'm a digital girl all the way when it comes to writing but when inspiration strikes --especially at school-- I either write it down on the back of my school notes or jotter. I hate this SO MUCH because a) my brain moves faster than my hands so the idea very often disappears before I can write it down and b) I already hand write all my notes FOR SCHOOL and now your telling me I have to do that NOT FOR SCHOOL????

And lastly, I use Google docs. There was a time where everyone was telling me to change it because Google was working with AI or something. I did try ellipsus but it just didn't feel right so I thought with good ol' docs.

Silly Game Time: The more obscure creatures from mythology and/or folklore deserve some love. Plus, the world could use more giant statues (I'm talking 300 ft or 91.5 meters in height kinda giant!). Time to solve two problems at once; you get to pick where one statue will go AND which creature it'll represent.

No limitations on location, and the only creature restriction being that it's lesser known (for example, *not* dragons, phoenixes, unicorns, Bigfoot, or the Mothman because they're already well-known and well-loved).

We need more unicorns where their horns touch the sides of buildings. The world needs more magic!

I want to write a book!

I had stopped a while ago because of the mental toll but my mind is itching to work on a long term publish-able project alongside my ao3 works.

It's going to based on my own experiences so the genre is going to be realistic fiction. The story is written in the perspective of Zara, a Nigerian teenage girl who feels 'too western' for her country. She's the odd one out in her religious family and class because she is not on social media like her classmates.

The vibe is like ghostcore meets high school. It will have like modern elements like a fandom, apps, blog spots and parodies of pop references, and will explore themes like mental health and social isolation.

I'm so excited!

Silly Game Time: Bringing back a crowd favorite!

We're going to ruin a title (whether for a book, movie, show, game, comic, or whatever) by adding just one word to it. For example: Star Wars => Starfish Wars

Spider-Man => Spider-Manchild

First time drawing (properly)!

For my first page of my sketchbook I decided to have these mini drawings in comic-like panels. I love them so far but I do wish I drew the woman on a full page.

These were the references:

I got a huge sketchbook the other day and practically searched the whole of pinterest before finally finally picking what I wanted to the draw first.

Ghosts!

Guys, I'm crying-

[thescifiwitch]

Things that scream slice-of-life

Messy bedrooms

Half-empty coffee cups

Kid's drawings on the fridge

Worn-out sneakers

A cat that sits on the same wall everyday

Skater boards and roller skates

Inside jokes

grocery bags and shopping carts

foggy windows

biking on the empty road

arts-and-crafts with little siblings

Long phone calls with a long-distant parent/relative/friend

Potted plants

Untucked school uniforms

conversations at the bus stop

Long walks through the neighborhood

Mismatched socks

Overflowing laundry baskets

Silly Game Time: Who are some Old Person(TM) characters you like, and why? They can be of any species, and even just be spiritually old--a character who is literally not that old, yet they act and/or feel "old". They can be from any media (movies, shows, books, comics, games, etc.) (OCs count, too, if you like). All that matters is that they're an Old Person(TM) and you like them!

Scrooge McDuck!

I aspire to be him
