I think layla, in general, is an extremely self-aware person. therapy is good for her because it forces her to confront what she already knows is going on with herself. for the most part, she's not making major discoveries. it's more about admitting to herself, and others, that these struggles exist. she puts a lot of effort into looking self-assured and in control (and we all know that control for her is something that she grasps at and needs at all costs), but she does have a lot of doubt as well.

her list of struggles (thank you cj) really exemplifies this, too. she blocked out her patience guilt for a long time to create her lounge, and once that was done, she had to confront all her worries and fears re: patience. these haven't gone away just because patience said they're fine. it doesn't work like that! she might (mostly) believe that patience does not hold it against her, but the guilt didn't just go away either.

three of those worries also relate to balance and figuring out how to do this. last season she also struggled with balancing work and jordan; this season, she's leaning more into that because trying to balance work and wedding planning. there is always more under the surface, but layla takes on too much and then falls apart trying to figure out how to fit everything into her schedule.

layla likes being busy because it blocks out all the noise. when layla stops being busy (or becomes too overwhelmed), she falls apart. she can't handle downtime because it means she's left alone with her thoughts and those are dangerous and bad. but if she puts all her energy into the studio or the lounge or a bunch of extracurriculars, she doesn't have time to worry about life! this, of course, does not work. she's finally learning that she can't keep doing this, can't keep bottling things up and ignoring their existence, because she'll fall apart of she keeps doing that.

back to her being self-aware to wrap this up: layla knew she was compartmentalizing, she knew she was pushing people away, she knows that she just needs to focus on this next task and just keep going. she THINKS she is in control, she THINKS she can break the cycle on her own, she THINKS everything is fine, but these are things she convinces herself of and needs other people to believe so she doesn't have to acknowledge how Not Fine she is. For the most part, she is very in tune of her actions and what they stem from. there are still surprises, of course, but she can typically figure out what happened, what was triggering her, and how she responded because of that. it's not just about learning actions that can help her manage these responses, and that's hard and scary and does not come naturally to her.

[theloveinc]

caitie!!! i am dropping by with a few things i find pretty bc april is so very pretty to me! 🍞🌻💭🌷☀️🫧✨🌱💗🍓 how are you?? i hope the month is lovely to you 🥺

i also come back with a curious sel question 🤓 a more technical writing one but, what is your anchor point to writing a character like bakugo or kiri? what part of them do you like exploring and what quality of theirs stays the same to you across any universe you put them in? 🥺

hi selly-belly !!! thank u for the ask and all the lovely things! here's some more who'd like to join🌦️☕️🐣☘️🐛🌈🍬🛁🧸 -- things are chugging along with me, wbu? i'm sure you know, but i'm always hoping the same right back for you every month🫶🏻

what an interesting question, though! i don't think i've ever thought about what i anchor my portrayals to, honestly! usually my process of writing is jump started by a scene i'd like to explore applied to a character, so as i'm writing, i already have their reaction planned? if that makes sense?

but i guess ... one thing that drives my portrayals and actually propels me to make them MINE is............. ig my characterization of the specific trait of which i think drives someone to act and deliberate and even emote. and i know for a fact i spend a lot of time considering this as i'm going.

for example, with bakugo (and i know i write quite a different bakugo from a lot of other writers on here, which does make me a lil insecure because i like their bakugos !! for the most part) ... one thing that is super important to me to include is his crippling perfectionism and the way that part of him often... affects his interactions with others and/or you. So it's something i'm always thinking about when i am deliberately thinking... "what would he say or do in this scene if he was bothered by _?"

And for kiri, it would be the way he carries his shame. Or for shinso, his insecurities. things like that!! I'm not entirely sure if that's the proper way to describe it, but yeah!!!

anyway, i hope this wasn't too complicated and lengthy for you, sel! i'd love to hear what you think about when you write characters in different universes/moments too, and especially with a speechul boy like iwa ("i love shy buff men" written on my tshirt) !!!

love u berry dearly <3 thank u again for the wonderful question 🥺🥹

Hemloooo I have some Q's for Maeve :3

💯 HUNDRED POINTS SYMBOL — share three random facts about your oc that others may not know.

🔺 RED TRIANGLE POINTED UP — does your oc know how to use any weapons?

🚫 PROHIBITED — does your oc drink/smoke? do they do it regularly, or is it more on occasion or for special events?

Love from Miz

Giving u a SMOOCH <3 @misery-lake

💯- hmmm

The silver streak in her hair glows a little when she uses magic! Doesn't matter what magic, though when she's using gifted magic from the goddess it glows a lot more.

Loves doing things with her hands and learning new things. Has an affinity for languages but she has tooons of books on different things.

Makes her own clothes! She loves sewing and embroidery and using her hands. Most of her clothes are either handmade or hand-me-downs from her older sister.

🔺- ohhhhhh yes lmao. Raised on an island where everyone has to train to fight. She went more the medic route buuuuut, swords, axe, daggers, and a crossbow. She always carries a knife/dagger on her but she leans towards a good ol two handed sword.

🚫- she drinks but she doesn't smoke. Drinks more for special occasions but she'll partake if she feels like it. She loves a good fruity cocktail though <3
