DO YOU THINK I FUCK AROUND

[serosanguine]

well, for better or worse... i finished. general penacony thoughts.

setting wise? everything i dreamed and more. decopunk? optical illusions? narratives around commodifying human experiences such as dreams? surrealist dream sequences? SLOWBURN HORROR? i am a SUCKER for all of this.

character wise... this writing fell the flattest so far for me. ive played genshin and HSR since both of their respective launches and this is truly the least enthused ive ever been about a new cast as a whole. almost all of them failed to even remotely intrigue me if they didnt outright piss me off or bother me.

the exceptions to this are aven, acheron, and SAM <3. i cant wait to see more of those 3 and if i consider adding sam on here, stop me.

i hate cliffhangers that leave you needing explanations rather than conclusions so i cant say i was a fan of that.

overall i really did like it and the next patch has never felt so far away, but im really hoping the next updates sell me on the characters more. definitely more of a personal thing but i felt pretty disappointed by how bland i found most of them to be.

THAT SAID, if anyone wants to reach me easier, here's a disco drop! just lmk who you are when you add me :>

ive been dodging the dash a bit while i finally start on penacony, but after i finish i will be a big boy and post a long thinkpiece on how i write/interpret kafka, a couple aven hcs, and verse write ups for kaveh and lynette in one place. thank you

HOW DO YOU VIEW LOVE ?

isolating.

intense, silent, overwhelming. you have so much to give but it is too much to share. nobody every reciprocates the way you do. makes you feel alien, unwanted. so you keep it and and watch others, hoping one day that could be you too.

tagged by: stolen from @starspurn tagging: you!

happy fucking birthday to the most special girl in the whole wide world Lynette Snezhevna I love her more than I love myself

[serosanguine]

i keep telling myself i should pick up some more star rail muses so theres more options for that side of things, since luka and kafka are kind of limited...

and then i keep looking at more genshin ones.

[serosanguine]

alright in the next few days I'll do an inbox raid, so hit like if you want some asks thrown your way!! specify muse if you want, but if you'd like me to just pick that's fine too!

[serosanguine]

i'm okay with:

starting over - are you a little overwhelmed with where our thread is going? let me know, and i'd be happy to start a new one with you!

pausing - if you're feeling one thread more than another we have going on, that's perfectly fine! you're welcome to let me know if you'd like, but it's not a necessity.

multiples - if we have a ship that you love and you have many ideas for them, always feel welcome to throw them at me no matter what! while it may affect my reply speed due to having more, it doesn't affect my interest at all!

regrouping - maybe we initially had an idea that didn't pan out but you don't know how to say it? just shoot me a message and let me know you'd like to plot further/something else.

anything else - have we not talked and you want to? shoot me a message! send in a meme if you don't know where to start! ask for my discord! i may not initiate too often myself, but i love being able to love our threads together!

MY LONG STRUGGLE HAS FINALLY REACHED IT'S END.

Doctor Who — The Bells of Saint John  {Sentence Starters}

“Because you’re old.“

“Are you guarding me?“

“Shut up, you’re not my mum.“

“Time to find out who you are.“

“Yes, that’s true. That is very true.“

“Tell you what, do you want to drive?“

“I need to talk to you. Listen. Please.“

“If I can’t find them, you definitely can’t.“

“You mean like you, for instance? Down, boy.“

“Are you going to explain what happened to me?“

“Why are you still here? Why are you here at all?”

“Don’t shout. Now you’ve made me type it wrong.”

“Okay. It’s okay, it’s okay. You’re fine. You’re back.“

“Oh, she’s rather pretty, isn’t she? Do you like her?“

“I’ve got several pages on that. I said I’d look into it.“

“I was scared, really scared. Didn’t know where I was.“

“Why have you got a box? Is it like a snogging booth?“

“They said they wouldn’t be long. Are they coming back?“

“Seriously? He can do that? He can really actually do that?“

“Oh, dear. I’m way past strange. I think I’m probably incredible.“

“It’s a help line, isn’t it? She said it’s the best help line out there.“

“What is going on? Is this real? Please, tell me what is happening!“

“They can see you. And they can see you, they might choose you.“

“Okay. When are you going to explain to me what the hell is going on?“

“Whoever’s after us spent the whole night looking for us. Are you tired?“

“You realise you haven’t the slightest chance of saving your little friend.“

“Well then, you should go to sleep. Because you’re safe now, I promise.“

“Now I want you to take a look around. And see how impossible your situation is.”

“Please, please, if you can hear me, if you can hear me, I don’t know where I am.“

“You have no right to be in this office, and I am demanding that you leave at once.“

“You’re young. Shouldn’t you be doing, you know, young things… with young people?”

“Do you know, I never realised how much I enjoy hearing that said out loud. Thank you.“

“You’ve got a hundred and one places to see, and you haven’t been to any of them, have you?“

“Actually, he’s about to go on holiday. Kill him when he gets back. Let’s not be unreasonable.“

nights are not for thinking. they remind him of the abyss, the darkness veiling his senses with memories of then. nothing clear, it's a rare day his memory is focused and crystallized; no, it's the emotion, the buzz of danger that raises his pulse to crave action. he rarely sleeps in the dark, a primal urge to stay alert and active raised to perfection all those years ago.

so when he stalks the streets of mondstadt, and sees one of his favored pastimes making his way into the bar, childe follows with a spring in his heels. it doesn't matter what they do, diluc never leaves him bored.

" hey, firecracker! what's - "

but then he sees. the stagger in his step, the red from more than just his hair, the way he hunches over an object for balance.

childe's vision starts to blur, everything feels hazy. all emotion seems to fall aside. his voice lowers.

" ...what happened? "

vision swims as blood clings to his skin beneath the pyro's shirt, gloved hands slick with the same cloying crimson fumble at the buttons as diluc stumbles across the threshold of his tavern. can't go home, can't let anyone there know what he gets up to after dark. they'll worry too much... or they'll tell one of the knights... or... or...

hip clashes with the corner of a table and diluc stifles a curse as white hot pain splinters up his side and through the fresh gash in his gut still bleeding and staining its way through pale waistcoat that he's sure he already shrugged off a few paces back... or was that his jacket? doesn't matter. he needs to stop the bleeding. needs to get at the damned thing so he can cauterize it. still, diluc fumbles at his shirt buttons - refusing to remove his gloves even as they fill with darkening crimson as his steps become more uncoordinated and dark patches appear in his vision.

"c'mon... c'mon..." another step has diluc bumping into the bar itself as his hands start to grow cold and numb. he doesn't notice the door creak open behind him, nor does he recognise the sound of familiar boots across his floors that are now spattered with crimson slowly starting to seep into the cracks between the boards. // @serosanguine for childe hehehe
