I may be pretty quiet lately, but part of my brain is still working on this! Chapter 18 of my Levi and Hange cabin life fic.

[weatheringtea]

I had such a fun time hunting Hange merch on my recent JP trip!!

It's been a while since I've posted a fic update here, and I've been pleased with the developments I've worked into my Hange & Levi Cabin Life fic, so here we go!

Writing 101

Okay, where does the chapter start

Shit, no he wouldn’t say that…

Am I foreshadowing too hard

I’ve used the word ‘chair’ seventeen times in the paragraph. This is supposed to be exposition about snakes

WHAT DO YOU MEAN I’VE BEEN WRITING IN THE WRONG TENSE FOR THE LAST PAGE AND A HALF

I need a break from this story

Wait, where was I? Did I just kill her, or did she just make out with someone? 

She did both??????

Have I been misspelling his name this entire time or

If I have to resort to describing her hair as ‘golden princess curls’ one more time I think I’m just gonna have to kill her

IS THIS SYMBOLISM SUBTLE ENOUGH YET

Did I actually just write that

Have I referenced his necklace yet this chapter? Only four times? One more time, then I’m done, I swear

Shit, that’s not how that works

Can I call something a French braid in a world where France doesn’t exist?

What the shit do you mean I just spent four hours writing 500 words?

Some days you just want to sit in the clouds and think.

Everyone needs that someone in their life who'll offer funeral services for your favourite pair of undies.

I had fun writing this chapter 😂😂 Hange and Levi's cabin life struggles.

I started a new fic and universe was like "hol' up, it's May" lol.

I have a sales table at Anime North (for Nominoichi - a large anime garage sale event) where I can sell my absurd amount of plushies anime merch. A very good thing to clear out collectibles! I've been running myself in circles prepping for that. And a trip out of town for a house/pet sitting stint mixed in there for this upcoming long weekend.

No new fic stuff for a little while longer, but if you happen to be going to AN and crave a Cinnamoroll plush, feel free to drop by N216 and help me give them new homes 😂😅

Been trying on a different writing hat from my norm these last few weeks with Levihan. I wish with all my heart they'd gone 'screw this bullshit' and bowed out... alas I don't get my way. I forgot I was watching the show where everything goes wrong and stays wrong LOL.

But, that's why I write!!

Let's see where I go with two adulty adults who've stepped back and left the world to fend for itself, so they can try to live (and deal with the trauma that decision brings, ofc).

A 25 second teaser/preview thing for this Fullmetal Nutcracker idea that I come back to every holiday season. Maybe someday I'll get it finished (next year perhaps??) but I hope the opening snippet is enjoyable in the meantime haha

Aiming for Weds for some nonsense, but we'll seeeee (it'll be about 25 seconds)

On the twelfth day of Christmas my true love sent to me ♫ Twelve drummers drumming, Eleven pipers piping, Ten lords a-leaping, Nine ladies dancing, Eight maids a-milking, Seven swans a-swimming, Six geese a-laying, ♪ Five golden rings ♪, Four calling birds, Three French hens, Two turtle doves, And a partridge in a pear tree.

Another December will go by without finishing this ;A; but I might actually have a sketchy snippet to share before Christmas :>

I just want to give a shout out to your nose, because the smell of 2011 is all over this LOL. The entire series is a re-imagining of an FMA 12 Days of Christmas I posted on LiveJournal and DeviantArt for Christmas 2010 (which is close enough to 2011 haha). The OG versions were done the Christmas before I started art school, so I wondered 'what would I do with these ideas a decade of experience later?"

For this one I changed all the characters, but kept the red dress and leggings for everyone. Other days were more on the nose to the original, like Day 4.

On the ninth day of Christmas my true love sent to me Nine ladies dancing, Eight maids a-milking, Seven swans a-swimming, Six geese a-laying, ♪ Five golden rings ♪, Four calling birds, Three French hens, Two turtle doves, And a partridge in a pear tree.
