Fun family story: when my aunt was marrying her wife everyone was really excited but also dreading it because my aunt is known for her insanely long speeches so everyone knew her vows would be like 9 hours long so when it came time for her to say her vows she had a shit ton of cue cards in her hands and even her wife started groaning and my aunt took a deep inhale and then unravelled all the cue cards which were taped together and they all just read ‘HOT DAMN’ in giant letters and those were my aunts vows.

every time i listen to “you’re a mean one mr. grinch” i can’t help but sit there and think “what did the grinch do to hurt you?” because dude just stands there for 2 minutes and 58 seconds and drags the grinch into the dirt

I know this is a long shot, but would you ever consider writing ikkayumi again? You're a big inspiration for my own ikkayumi fic and easily my favorite ikkayumi writer in the fandom, so I'd love to see you play with the characters again. I understand if the answer is no, however, people's interests change over time and I totally get that : ) I know your writing will be amazing no matter what fandoms you're in! And thanks for all the amazing fics you've provided our little fandom 🥰🥰🥰
I consider it a huge compliment that people still read and like my old ikkayumi art and fics after this many years of inactivity, so to be your favorite author, holy shit, wow, thank you very much, I’m so glad you got enjoyment from those works and it’s really touching to know you got inspiration for your own fic. I wish you the best of luck.
As for writing any more ikkayumi fics... To be brutally honest, and I know this is super childish and petty, I’m still bitterly upset about the way bleach ended, and that bitterness has sort of soured and tainted the immense enjoyment I used to get out of the fandom. Listen, I was hyperfixated on this damn anime for literal years. Renichi and Ikkayumi were my shit. I put literally all my creative energy into these ships, and now it’s just fucking gone. It’s hard to explain, but it just doesn’t feel the same anymore, if that makes sense. It’s like I can’t even think about the show without feeling that irritation and almost betrayal? over what I perceive to be a dissatisfactory ending to the series. Which I know is unreasonable and illogical, but I can’t seem to squash it. Hopefully that will go away with time, but it’s already been a few years since Bleach ended and I’m still being a salty bitch, so who knows.
Ikkayumi is definitely an old fave, and I won’t say there’s no chance I’ll ever write something again, but if I did, it’s unlikely it would be anything longer than a oneshot or maybe a doodle here or there. I put a huge amount of effort and time into making fics, and I’m not sure I’d ever feel the same emotional investment in the ship again to go to that much trouble.
I’m really glad to hear you’re writing a fic though. It’s nice to know that tiny, tiny-ass ship is still kicking and that it wasn’t for nothing to write those fics for a small audience. If you got enjoyment out of my fics and it inspired you, it was all worth it. Carry on the torch my bud.
#this was a nice message to receive#thank you very much#you seem really nice and i wish you luck with your fic#curious which works of mine you read and got inspired by#like were they the older shittier ones or the comparatively newer stuff#or some obscure shit no one read like the ikkayumi fantasy aus i wrote#fuck this is taking me back#ask#sephiroths-tradwife

First Line Game Tag
I was tagged by @theshinsun.
Rules: List the first lines of your last 20 stories (if you have less than 20, just list them all!). See if there are any patterns. Choose your favorite opening line. Then tag 10 of your favorite authors!
1. Flowers Come Out Of My Grave [wip] - In the garden of Olympus, under a pink tree, Aomine lays in the shade, shining a golden apple on his tunic.
2. She's So Nice [wip] - “Apologize to me.”
3. Fuck Boys in America [wip] - Kagami went and did something stupid.
4. Neighborhood Outreach - Garou’s gone again.
5. That Which You Know - If you’d told Aomine a year ago all the things that would go down over the course of this summer, he would’ve told you to go pound sand.
6. Once... - Once upon a time, there was a golden city.
7. What You Leave Behind - Kagami can remember the exact moment he first met Aomine.
8. The Boy in the Cage - Kagami’s had his hands tied for the last three days.
9. The Thing You Can't Replace - So, he and Kagami have actually gotten to be pretty good friends.
10. Eyes in the Woods - It’s school break, and that means Badd and Zenko have plans.
I don’t see much of a pattern other than I seem to like using opening lines that are either short or sarcastic.
Tagging: I think everyone I know has already been tagged.

you have a problem with minor making boundaries on who they want to interact with? like seriously the purpose of carrds is to establish boundaries, like cranky that you couldnt interact with someone?
i have a problem with minors willingly placing so much incredibly personal information in a single place on the internet where literally anyone can see it and especially with the culture that has normalized this to the point where it is expected and anyone who doesn’t want to share that information is automatically viewed as suspicious.
you have 13/14-year-old kids listing all sorts of information that makes them vulnerable to predators (including the fact that they are 13/14!!! that makes them vulnerable!!) and that can make it easier to narrow down their real life identity. that specific tweet didn’t talk about location but i have seen children list their location and what school they go to, and that genuinely terrifies me. i’ve seen lgbt teenagers making public tweets about how they’ve been kicked out by their homophobic parents and need a place to stay in a specific city—you are literally broadcasting the fact that you are young and vulnerable and your family isn’t looking for you!! ANYONE can see that! that’s fucking dangerous!!!
and the idea that you should list your triggers all in one place is also incredibly dangerous, like i know the point is to let people know what to avoid but what you’re actually doing is giving potential bullies or predators a ready-made list of things they can use to hurt and harrass you. all of the things that that person listed as “basic info” is stuff that can be used to target you. it lets other people know you’re part of an in-group, yes, but it also puts a target on your back. i’ve gotten racist hate messages, homophobic hate messages, rape and death threats, and i’m fine because i’m an adult and i’m not online that much, but it still takes its toll and i cannot IMAGINE being 13 and opening yourself up to those things online because everyone is now expected to list their race and sexuality and fucking trauma and medical diagnoses for everyone to see as soon as they click their profile.
the problem with saying “xyz people dni” is that only the polite and respectful people will actually listen and not interact with you. the people who you should actually be worried about, the people who actually actively want to hurt you, will use the information that you have willingly provided them to target you. do you think putting “terfs and fascists dni” on your carrd is actually going to stop terfs and fascists from interacting with you? if they want to hurt you they will hurt you, expecting them to respect boundaries just because you have publicly stated them is leaving yourself extremely vulnerable.
make boundaries by using the block button liberally, or like i don’t know setting your fucking profile to private. protect yourself by valuing your own privacy and not actively providing people who might harm you with the exact tools and ammunition they can use to do so.
the idea that i could only be upset by this trend because i ??? want to disrespect people’s boundaries???? is so fucking bizarre. i made that post because i am legitimately terrified for these children’s safety. not to be all kids these days, but LITERALLY kids these days are sharing their face, their identities, their entire lives, with the entire internet on a public platform without a second thought, and expecting their peers to do that as well, and it has real repercussions.
