"So... I suppose we Hocotatians celebrate by appreciating that we're.... mostly fine."

"♫ Fresh from zones of moisture And afterward the meat With spangles on my long-tailed suits And songs to haunt the one that’s saved Just call me Desdinova I’m sure to be the lucky one When destiny assigns wisdom Known to me the starry wisdom ♫"

"♫ I am the one you warned me of I am the one who’d never, never lie ♫"

"♫ The writing in the notebook Notation from the stars Songs by Desdinova And frost warnings from the women’s farm Whose agents could not ever see His hilly eyes and too green rings Obscured sight and fancy dreams Holy mass, those thirteen fancy dreams ♫"

"♫ I am the one you warned me of I am the one who’d never, never lie ♫"

He IS doing this right, isn't he? ... Oh, blasteroids...

fic director’s commentary ask game: more details about one of your fics focused on the preservation team?

I wanna talk about “Letters Sent (I’m Sorry)” as I was recently reminded of that again and I had a lot of fun putting that together.

Trying to capture their varied voices and concerns… and, as alluded to in the title, each letter contains the phrase “I’m (really) sorry” in some form. Some, like Ratthi’s, are genuine apology, some are apologizing for the tone of the letter, and some, like Pin-Lee’s at the end, are clearly exasperated. But every letter has an “I’m sorry” in it. None of them wanted this.

A lot of them allude to minor OCs. One kf the big things I wanted to do with this fic was make it clear that the PreservationAux members, as it stands as of ASR, are not necessarily all best friends or each other’s most important people yet—they all have people back home, too. The first one, unsigned, is from Ratthi, dashed off to a friend (it comes from his feed address—like an email to a friend, you know who it’s from, signing is unnecessary). Sasha and Diyar are friends of his from his extended social network. Arada’s letter mentions a Maja—I loooove the awkward, uncomfortable idea of Arada (and Overse, and Ratrhi, kind of naturally) having a close friend who’s not really a fieldwork scientist who Wasn’t There. Who keeps not being there. Who’s drifting apart from her friends because she wasn’t There, she doesn’t Get It. The cracks in their relationship :’) Somedayyyyyy she is going to appear in “Home Again” (“Letters Sent” is strongly tied to “Home Again”).

In this fic I’ve declared Overse an outdoorsy person who’s experienced in Wilderness First Aid. I think I use this characterization of Overse a lot: outdoorsy, big into hiking. Not a scientist herself, more experienced with mechanical repair and first aid medicine, but active and enjoys being along on survey activities.

Bharadwaj’s writing-during-fieldwork woes are very much inspired by true events lol.

Most of the fellow Steering Committee councilmembers mentioned in Mensah’s letter are names you also see in “what you believe in.” The odd one out is Councillor Xue, who I imagine has ended her term and a different councillor has been elected in her stead by the time of “what you believe in.” I was originally going to use all names from that fic till I considered that it’s likely that things would change in the multiple years and politicians switch in and out. Verisimilitude no one else cares about is ~important~.

you can tell I was running out of steam for coming up with OC names by Pin-Lee’s letter because I just went “fuck it” and had her refer to “whatshisface from the Khukri.” This does, however, allude to my fanfiction rule of thumb that corporation rim gunships are named after old earth weapons. The choice of “Khukri” for the corporate gunship in question is, naturally, a shout-out to Dracula Daily.

Hiiiii~

Actually for reals this time gonna reread 3tan (cause I said so to your face and now I have Accountability <s>at least in my head</s>)

BUT I have a question as to which way you'd prefer my feedback* :3

Commints on the chapter post

Screams in your inbox (like this)

Rb's and my rambles in the tags (May get long who knows)

On ao3? Have to disable auto-"whole work" so I'll actually comment every chapter but I can show 3tan love on ao3 as well

Secret fifth option?? (tell me)

Looking forward to rereading this masterpiece and remembering all my favourite parts 🥰💜

*I bingeread when I can so you'll likely be getting multiple activity notifs per day when I'm reading it. Spam, if you will :3

WAIT this is amazing and so cute🥺💕 thank you for even asking!! That’s incredibly kind of you. Truly, anything is amazing, any ask/comment/reblog, etc. But you really wanna know my personal ranking of coolest to get? I can list them!

Top would be reblogs! Reblogs with comments in the body or comments in the tags. This way, I can directly reply/scram to you while getting to reblog the fic to the dash again for people that may not have seen it yet🥳

Comments also are welcome on the post! I can reply directly to y’all there, too, especially with the new tumblr update💕

Asks are always always amazing🥺 honestly my favorite part of being here is getting to talk to you all, and we can do that through asks because they can spark conversations (and you can join in even if you’re shy bc of the anon feature!) It’s a great way for the community to be involved.

The anonymous feedback form i have linked on the chapters! It’s so cool because your anon feedback goes straight to my email, so i get them right away. I’m the only one that sees them, and people even post so much feedback sometimes that they have to submit multiple answers😂 it’s fantastic, literal essays and dissertations and i get to relive the fics through commentary🥺

Wattpad and AO3 comments are cool, too! They’re other ways to build community in other spaces🥳 Just not here!

But yes, anything you decide to do helps build energy and motivation🤍 Thank you for even asking, and have lots of fun on the reread!

GETTING TO KNOW YOU.

respond to the following prompts out of character. then, tag others that you'd like to get to know a little bit better!

ROLEPLAYER NAME: Owl or Sam, I go by both.

ROLEPLAYER PRONOUNS: He/him.

MUSE NAME: Haarlep

PREFERRED COMMUNICATION: Discord if we've had a few interactions, I don't mind IM's but we all know what tumblr is like when it comes to IM's here. IM's is great for when I'm not at home tho, since I literally only use discord while I'm on my PC.

EXPERIENCE: I'm old, I've got a lot of experience, been doing it for well over a decade, from MSN times through to email and forums back in the day, or devART notes.

PREFERRED ROLEPLAY TYPE: I like making relationships and seeing those muses grow from said relationships (or not lol). I want connections, though. I don't want to feel like it's a chore to write with someone. I want to have fun. I like a good mix between dark, nitty gritty and absolutely fluffy and cute, soooo.

PET PEEVES & DEALBREAKERS:

Please for the love of god read my rules. I don't expect anyone (including myself) to remember everyone's rules, we all write with a multitude of people, but when it's blatantly obvious that you've not even glanced over my rules, it's not going to make me want to interact with you. (:

Blog policing. Seriously, if you don't like something, then don't indulge in it? It's that fucking simple. Let people write villains, let people write problematic characters that are morally grey or whatever else. Just because you don't like them doesn't mean you have the right to abuse those that do. Writing evil characters doesn't make you a bad person. Have you ever actually picked up a book and read it? This just boggles my mind... Why do you think you can do this? And sadly enough, this has legitimately pushed fantastic people and Rpers away from the hobby they once loved.

One liners. I have a really difficult time... NOT writing paras. And that's a me thing. If you write one liners and that suits you, then by all means, please continue! But it does mean we're simply not compatible. Unless it's little dash commentary shenanigans, I can't stand one liners.

PLOTS OR MEMES: Both. I think memes are a REALLY good way to break the ice, especially when if you're anything like me, a person who comes home from work and is thoroughly exhausted that my brain can't possible think of anything super heavy when it comes to plot. But in saying that, I do love getting to plot with my mutuals and chatting and building character development through this. So both are good. :)

LONG REPLIES OR SHORT REPLIES: 99% of the time long. Like I stated previously, it's HARD for me to write short responses, and I like having something I can work off. Also... the inner monologue gets away from me at times :'D I only like short if it's silly dash commentary or maybe just a simple ask meme or something that isn't intended to be plotted out into a thread.

BEST TIME TO WRITE: A day off X'D Honestly, I'm MUCH more energetic and a better writer when it's early morning. Once it hits noon, I'm like a potato sack.

ARE YOU LIKE YOUR MUSES: Haarlep? Lol, no. Not at all. He's charming and evil and swanky and sexy (and quite literally a sex addict). I'm literally a metal head nerd that likes my own solitude and just listens to music and does art and plays games. I'm also very asexual. I'm socially awkward af (: Haarlep is ALL charm. The only thing I could say is MAYBE... maybe my Libra charm, but... I'm so tired these days that that hardly shines through lol. I am just a sleepy hoot.

Tagged by: Stole it. Tagging: Yooouuuu

[fantastickkay]

A bit of commentary on the state of the music industry today:

I have noticed in the past few years, they are trying to make CD singles a thing again which would be great (!) if they had extra songs or remixes on them.

If they had just one extra track, I would be all over them! A marketing email just came through that extended mixes and instrumentals are available for Ariana's new song, so I dashed over to see if the physical versions had them... nope just the one song which is truly pointless. Even in the CD single heyday, they always had an extra track to entice a purchase!

It's just one of those things that are too bad, obviously nothing worth truly complaining about but this is my platform to talk about my music collection and this is part of that!

[littleapocalypsekitten]

If you like someone's art, fiction or commentary, you don't absolutely have to make commentary on it in a reblog if you do not know what to say. You can just reblog dry, to get the art seen. It's a way of saying "Hey, I like this!" that is seen on your dash by your followers and spreads the original poster's art around, get s the eyeballs on it. (Spoken as an artist and writer). Much of this applies to my sideblogs, You can own alternate blogs on here, which I do to keep my fandoms organised. My dash would be all over the place with people in my fandoms seeing politics reblogs that they might find unpleasant or random junk and/or fandom stuff for fandoms they are uninterested in, while my regular followers would be "Wow, she's so into Trigun right now when I followed her for the Zelda fanart she used to do, this is kind of obnoxious!" - Hence my creation of side-blogs to be Yeah, this is my Zelda-space, this is my She-Ra space, this is my Trigun-space. You don't even need to have different emails (you can only like from your main), but you can have a full blog to post on and reblog to that's a sideblog if you go into your settings and create one if say, you want to have a single-fandom specific space, or a space for your short story writing or just a spam-folder if you want to post random weird shower thoughts that you don't want all over your main. I don't think you can do side-accounts on any other social media like this. Including this one, I have 6 blogs. (This one, one for original art, one for writing and three different fandom-specific blogs). It's a nice way to do things. It's a pretty common feature here.

so i have a mildly popular “reblog and put in in the tags” post going around and its. very clear how many people don’t know how to interact with a tumblr post

so, first of all, tumblr’s culture has changed a lot in the past couple years. there’s a genuine community effort to not start any drama, and ironically a lot of the current hostility is an effort to keep things calm. there’s also a change in how people interact with posts, so if you haven’t been here in a while please skip down to the tags/replies/reblog with text section.

for newcomers: you should be reblogging posts about as liberally as you would like something on twitter. if you only like stuff, people will think you are rude/a bot. you’ve probably heard people talk about “cultivating your dash,” and thats because this platform is 100% centered around your dashboard. trending matters less, unfollowing and blocking in order to shape your dash into it’s best form is widely accepted, the majority of the content you’ll find and interact with will be because of your dash, and the only way to put things on your dash is to reblog them. tumblr users are deeply distrustful of algorithms and have largely turned off the “see posts your friends have liked” function (i recommend you also turn of the various algorithms in settings → general settings → dashboard preferences).

so, once you’ve reblogged a post, there’s three ways to add content to it. the tags, replies, and reblogging with text. all of them have different connotations

the tags: an inside voice. originally they were meant for organizing your blog (and they’re still used for this), but they’ve also morphed into a way to share thoughts that aren’t funny/insightful enough for non-followers to be interested in. when in doubt, put your comment in the tags

replies: basically talking to your friends in class. your followers have no way of finding your replies (they don’t pop up on the dash, nobody gets notified except for the original poster) so chances are, only the person who made the post is gonna see your comment. it’s for quick one-offs that you’re okay with other people overhearing, but really is only made for one person. they’re like a public dm

reblog with text: an outside voice. you’re getting up on a stage in town square and entertaining people. make sure it’s funny or insightful— bottom line, add something new to the conversation. you should use this the least

general rules of thumb: 

when in doubt, reblog. people will judge you if your blog is only personal posts and you only interact with other content by liking it.  

the only things people will judge you for reblogging are personal vent posts. leave a like to give a little virtual hug

if a post is asking about your personality/opinions (i.e: tell me what’s the last tv show you watched, that kind of thing) put it in the tags 

also if you see a nice edit, gifset, or art, reblog and say something nice in the tags! it’s that nice sweet spot of common enough that no one will notice but uncommon enough to make the artist’s day
