A reminder to all my lovely fellow writers: progress is progress, even when it isn't. Writing four thousand words in a session is progress. Writing a hundred words in a session is progress. Removing an entire scene because it doesn't flow well is progress. Rethinking your plan for the plot in order to get unstuck is progress. Development looks different for every writer and every story.

too many books written by people who don't read books and only read fanfic. to counteract this there should be more fanfic made by people who don't read fanfic and only read books

hc thinking about Chuuya being that nonchalant friend who never really talks about if he's having a hard time or if he just went through some rough shit so whenever Shirase calls to catch up he's just baffled as hell
Shirase: so i ordered a large fried rice and the delivery guy brought me a MEDIUM
Chuuya: that's unacceptable
Shirase: i know right? btw bro ur eye bags are looking a lil dark
Chuuya: yeah busy day yesterday. a dragon attacked the city so i had to handle that
Shirase:
Shirase: excuse me?
Chuuya: so did they refund u the difference for the rice
Shirase: no no no. PAUSE go back wdym DRAGON?
Chuuya: there was a dragon. i got called in and i also owed the guy so i just handled it. it's fine i just need some sleep. btw u should stop eating so much takeout and just learn to cook
Shirase: what goes on
Shirase: kinda annoyed today like the bus was 20min late. i should really get a car
Chuuya: do u even have ur license
Shirase : that's not important rn. do u have any recs since ur car's nice
Chuuya: i guess it was nice
Shirase: wdym "was"? did u upgrade
Chuuya: no it blew up
Shirase: what
Chuuya: it's gone
Shirase: HOW did BLOW UP????
Chuuya: no idea. but seriously u should look into getting a license before driving around bc what are u gonna do if u get caught
Shirase: lemme tell u the craziest thing happened yesterday. bumped into this girl at a cafe and we got to talking and guess what? she knows yuan!
Chuuya: really?
Shirase: yeah i wanted to tell u yesterday but u didn't call me back
Chuuya: sorry i got trapped in some guy's book
Shirase:
Shirase: huh
Chuuya: it was some mystery novel with a bunch of killers. i just fought everybody to get out so it's chill
Shirase: what are u talking about
Chuuya: enough about me tho. so how's yuan doing
basically it’s always Shirase just asking why Chuuya didn’t tell him about these crazy events and Chuuya’s just like “I don’t like making a big deal out of things. I don’t think it’s that serious” and Shirase is like YES IT IS???

so many of y’all are too busy trying to define lesbianism as explicitly inclusive of men and making sure we’re nice and palatable to straight people and making people feel secure in the fact that anyone can still like men, even the dykes! that you straight up ignore or erase the very prominent part of lesbophobia that comes from us not liking men, and you talk over and ignore us whenever we talk about how isolating it is to not like men when everyone else around you does because it doesn’t fit your narrative that queer labels and identities are one-size-fits-all and the mere idea of lesbians existing shatters your ideal world where everyone has wiggle room in their sexuality. reinventing the “lesbians aren’t exclusive, there’s a man for everyone! they just need to find Mr Right” isn’t progressive just because you throw in a couple buzzwords that sound good and give people warm and fuzzies

with every god awful take about james potter on the internet an angel loses its wings.
what do you mean he didn’t care about the dark arts and death eaters until it affected him personally. what. you mean the famously blood traitor potter family? you mean one of the only actual canon things we have about james being that he hated the dark arts? you mean the james that yelled at snape for calling lily a mudblood?? you mean the james that went on the front lines of a war he had the privilege to not fight in????
please anti blood supremacy is literally ingrained in his core beliefs can we just keep this ONE THING about him 😭
