#I hope you're also doing well anon :)

[skimmingmilk]

I was reading through comments on "Sharing is caring but we never learned how" and it was nice knowing I wasn't the only one who cried a little reading it lol.

Anyway, I just wanted to ask, have you ever gotten emotional writing scenes in your fics and does it ever surprise you when other people get emotional from your writing!

Love your writing by the way, I can't say it enough <3 Hope you're doing well

You definitely weren't alone, anon! I almost couldn't believe that so many people really resonated with that fic. I'm really happy it moved people the way it did <3 Myself included xD

I have cried while writing so many times. It's almost a guarantee with every fic. A few specific instances off the top of my head...

Definitely in "Sharing is Caring," I got really emotional when I wrote the scene with Tails waking up to Sonic sleeping on the floor by his bed with all the sick supplies <3

Cried so much in "Put Your Friends on Shuffle" (I know, I can't explain why the Sonic Shuffle fic had me in tears, but it did, lol). I wrote it in one sitting and the whole writing process was like a fever dream, just me crying in the club at 1am

In "An Unstoppable Force Between Static Stars" - at the end of Knuckles's part in chapter 3, after he's found Sonic and Tails, he just punched me right in the heart. I was legitimately sobbing as I typed up his section. I also teared up in the final scene of that same chapter, when Tails was hoping this was all a bad dream that he'd wake up from. I've cried in other parts of this fic, too, but they haven't been posted yet ;P

"Where Water Wears Away the Stone" also brought me to tears when Sonic's thinking about what he'll have to do if he never finds Tails

And "Chart a Course to Second Chances" - all three chapters ruined me on multiple occasions xD I had to write my own AU of chapter two just to cope lol

I know I've made myself cry and given myself emotional gut punches where I just need a minute while writing other fics, but those are a few of the moments that stick out the most right now. I am so not normal about these silly cartoon talking animals <3 But I know if a scene brought me to tears in the middle of writing it, then it's probably a winner xD

I often like to say, "if I'm going to make myself cry, I'm taking you all down with me" >:3

But in all seriousness, I wouldn't say it surprises me that people get emotional while reading at this point, though it did in the beginning. I already knew I tended to be an emotions-heavy writer, but I genuinely didn't think my fics were going to appeal to anyone in the Sonic fanbase aside from me, let alone affect people so deeply. The surprise more comes from how real it can feel to some readers. How certain feelings or scenarios actually apply to something someone's currently going through or that they've experienced, and that the fics validate them or comfort them in a way. Which is honestly why I want to share my writing with people <3 It makes it all worthwhile to tell a story that is meaningful to even just one person.

I really appreciate the question, thank you! <3

Tony stark x daughter!reader where reader got SA'd and is having a hard time telling her dad?

usa/english/rainn hotline 1-800-656-4673 (also european hotlines, 46 countries listed).

first of all anon I want to give you the biggest most sincere virtual hug. absolutely we can talk about what an amazing dad Tony is, especially under these circumstances. (disclaimer that I don't have much if any experience writing about SA/SA trauma, I did some reasearch and as with all topics I don't have much experience in, pls take this with a grain of salt and feel free to send feedback if you'd like <3 /p)

Tony knows something is off with you immediatley. he's had a weird feeling he can't shake, but Pepper keeps dismissing it as more anxiety. When he first sees you after what happened, his stomach drops. He knows something is wrong, he knows his baby isn't okay, and he is going to make things right no matter what happened. You normally have such an easy time talking to him, but now you can't, and he knows it's serious. He doesn't press you for details right away (after asking if you're okay and doing all the usual dad check in stuff), but he knows you need him. He pulls you into a warm, comforting hug and rubs your back. You can hear the thrum of his arc reactor syncing with his heartbeat, and the white noise is so soothing and comforting and he's such a good dad who loves you so much it all makes you cry again.

"What happened?"

He asks so seriously, you know he understands the gravity of the situation. You try to tell him, but you get all choked up again, and you just... can't. He holds you and comforts you, rubbing your back and talking to you until you start to feel better.

"Hey, hey, hey. It's okay. It's okay." He says in that dad voice that snaps you out of your spiraling thoughts. "You don't have talk about anything yet if you're not ready. Okay?"

You nod, and he wipes your tears away. His hands smell a little like metal, and you know he's been working on his suits.

"Tell you what. Why don't we get some shwarma delivered from that place a few blocks over, we'll pick out a couple movies - what was that one you said you wanted to show me? The really bad one with the birds?"

You nod, but you don't laugh. He wraps you up in his blue hoodie, and has Jarvis call to order your food. He stays close to you, sending Pepper a message to cancel everything he has to do right now, the penthouse is on lockdown until this is resolved. He stays close to you, making sure you feel safe. He wants more than anything to know what happened, who hurt you, what was said or done to upset you like this. While your food is on the way and the movie is loading, the penthouse is quiet aside from your muffled sobs. Tony holds you, rocks you gently, comforts you. After a while, he pulls back enough to wipe your tears away and look at you. He gives you that dad look, the serious heart to heart one.

"I want to make this, whatever it is, better." He states, and you know he means it. He would move heaven and earth for you without hesitation, and he has in the past, and he'll do it again.

"But you need to tell me what's going on. I can't fix the problem if I don't know what it is."

Everything about your dad is so comforting, it makes your throat tighten up and your eyes well up with tears again. You try to explain through choked out, shuddering sobs, but you just can't get the words out.

"Okay, okay," Tony comforts you, bringing up one of his holographic screens he uses for work. A translucent glowing holographic keyboard appears in front of you.

"Why don't you try writing it out?" He offers, hoping that will be easier.

By the time you're done writing out what happened, you look over at him. You're almost scared for a moment, a part of your racing anxiety worried that he won't believe you, or he'll blame you, or-

"Thank you for telling me."

he pulls you into an even tighter hug, holding you close, and his voice shakes as he speaks.

"You did the right thing by telling me, okay?" He comforts you and reassures you that it's not your fault, that you're safe, and that he is never, ever going to let that happen again. Through every battle and alien invasion, you've never seen your dad this protective, this pissed on your behalf.

He gets a little more information from you, the location, the time, if you know who it was. He hacks into anything and everything with a camera until he finds the son of a bitch who hurt you. Then he sends out the drones. He has Stark drones, armed to the teeth, follow the bastard's every move, monitoring him while Tony gets everything together. He gets you counciling and resources, he calls you out of work or school or whatever so you have some time home to recover. If you want to file a police report, believe me he will get it filed immediately. If you don't want to, Tony has other ways of getting your attacker off the streets and away from you for good. Maybe he plants classified shield information on him and gets him thrown in a maximum security prison, maybe he pays someone to blast him into another universe. You don't really know the details, and you don't really want to. All you know is that your dad comes into your room after "making a few calls", and informs you that he's never, ever going to bother you again.

He does whatever you need him to do so you feel as safe and empowered as possible. Your suit gets upgraded, security systems get maxed out, and Tony finds a way to hook Jarvis up to keep an eye on your vitals.

"I'll get a ping if your adrenaline or cortisol spike, or if anything else looks iffy." he explains, hooking up the new system. "Even if it's just a stressful day, I'll know what kind of ben and jerry's to bring you."

You thank him again, and he hugs you, pressing a kiss to the top of your head.

"I love you, kid."

4 other applicants have come in clutch for the apartment I'm hunting. If I'm still eligible I'll know tomorrow, but only to be called for a showing, if the others in the queue accept and have better conditions than me, I'll lose it. But my agent is still hopeful. Fingers crossed.

Ishida looks hilarious 🤣 does he like treats and things?

werewolf or non-werewolf, i feel like Ishida would be the type of person to eat pretty much anything that has nutritional value (the Ishimaru family did go through tough times, so it makes sense!)

what is your header from? 👀

hello, anon!!!!

my header is from the bl series 'first note of love', which is a taiwanese and thai co-production. the story follows xiao hai, a young composer known by the name 'sea' who one day is unexpectedly invited to work with his childhood idol, neil. neil used to be part of the band 'magnet' alongside his brother, matt, but after the latter's death neil withdrew from the spotlight. now, six years later, xiao hai might be the only one able to help neil save his career, and himself too

okay as you can see writing summaries is not really my forte, sorry ;;;;;;; but the two characters in my header are indeed the main ones, neil and xiao hai!!!! and forehead touch is kind of a Thing™ in the show

fair warning: some blabbering ahead ;;;;;; (but no spoilers, don't worry!!!!)

i personally LOVE this show, and if it doesn't somehow mess up on the last episode it's definitely gonna be one of my favorites of the year, but i know most people wouldn't agree with me, which i understand. this isn't an overly romantic show, in the sense that the romance, while obviously there, is only a part of the story, and when it happens they do not wallow in it for long, they don't spell things out step by step, which can be both boring and frustrating considering the short run-time of the episodes

however there are just SO MANY great things about it: it's a BL about music that actually puts the music front and center (the soundtrack is AMAZING), the characters are all memorable and incredibly likeable, the multilingualism is very realistic, there’s no unnecessary drama, and above all the show is just so..tender. i really can't find another word to describe the way it deals with grief and love, it just feels like a warm and comforting hug assuring you that everything is gonna be alright

ANYWAY. if my blabbering didn’t scare you off, the show is actually ending on monday and the episodes are only 25/30 minutes long, so it would be the perfect time to do a binge watch JUST SAYING

[chiscribbs]

Gentle reminder that you are a wonderful human being and you could do the stupidest thing ever and people would still like you and I don't know if or what you're struggling with but I hope you know you are loved and I hope you get through it if something is. If not, that's awesome! Still applies to you. Take care of yourself. Have a wonderful day/night <3

Aww... Thank you, Anon. This is such a sweet message ❤

I'm doing alright personally, aside from catching a very minor cold, lol. Mostly, it's just that there's a lot going on in my life right now, all at once. My family and I got a bit of a bombshell dropped on us some months back and I just haven't had the time, or the energy, to work on the things I want to work on lately. I'm praying that things get sorted out soon and I can get back to doing what I love, finally, without having to worry so much about timing.

But, que será, será. And who can add one second to their life by worrying?

If Ricky and Tom got into a fight who would win

Ricky most DEFINITELY. I don't even have an explanation for this just one look at them and I already knew /J

[merakiui]

Hiiiii Mera! I've reappeared in your inbox to ask-

HAVE YOU SEEN DR. RATIO YET (HSR)?? His character just officially dropped on the hsr insta and and- look at him! I can sense the smug possessiveness all over his arrogant face >:D

Also idk if you're still doing hsr asks, if not then I apologize! ;-;

I hope you're having a lovely day Mera~!

- ☄️

HIIIIIII ☄️!!!!!! >w< omg,,, I have indeed seen him. He's so !!!!!!!!! I can't get over the name Dr. Ratio LOL. All I can think of is the L + ratio meme hehe. Aaaaaa but I love his design!!!! AND HIS EXPRESSION....... >:) I love when a man is smug and arrogant. It's truly so *chef's kiss*!!!! AND HIS ARMS?!?!?!??!?! (⊙_⊙) THE WAY I CAN SEE HIS SIDES IN HIS CLOTHING. FOR FREE, DR.

I am always happy to receive and chat about more hsr asks!!! Admittedly, I need to continue where I left off in the story because I stopped playing for a long minute after I pulled Imbibitor Lunae (my beloved <3) and then I became absorbed in Genshin, twst, and (most recently) Reverse: 1999. AAAAA SO MANY FUN GAMES, YET SO LITTLE TIME...... T^T

[ginnyluna]

I’m really proud of you for overcoming your art block, I hope you’re doing well

Thank you so much for this 💜💜💜 i'm trying, but this helps so much, more than you know

[astradyke]

I swear every dnp fan feels the equivalent of massive catholic guilt over being a fan of them . Like its a phenomenon I haven’t seen to this extent in any other fandom I can think of . Phatholic guilt if you will

Phatholic guilt is crazy anon 😭

yeah, that is definitely a phenomena. mm, i have a lot of thoughts about it, but i guess all i'll say is like... my perspective is, we're having a fun time, and dan and phil are having a fun time, yeah? and while fan culture definitely impacted them back in their roughest years, of course it did they weren't exactly insulated from it, there was so so so much more they've described going on in the 2012-2013 years alone. so while i understand a lot of guilt folks feel about like... Past Phandom Crimes, like, dan and phil can just tell us if our jokes about sister daniel's thighs or about them fucking nasty are crossing a line. so that's kind of my own thing on the guilt front just being like, well. they're happy now, things are really good. and trying to cross-examine 12 year old mare for reading wattpad fanfiction or whatever is kind of pointless, given that i am no longer 12, and 12 year old mare most certainly had bigger issues in her life than dan and phil RPF discourse. like geometry homework. and other such things

which is why i kinda think like, yeah, they'll bully us as TIT. they'll joke about us and our oh they're touching jokes, right. but i don't think they're out to punish us. i genuinely think they find all of this beautiful, us and them and our dynamic, and i think TIT is so much more of a celebratory reclamation than a "fuck you for what you've done to us" reclamation.

[eastofedean]

real sorry if its weird or something but just read your recents posts and do you like wanna talk to someone maybe? i dont have a whole story obv but i relate to a couple of tjings u said and idk, no pressure BUT if you DO feel like talking to someone then i could maybe write you a private message idk

hello anon, this is an incredibly kind offer, but I don't want to be a burden to other people. it wouldn't be fair of me to do that.

[nedseii]

i just wanted to say i love your art sm! i’ve been following you (as an erehisu enjoyer) for a while and now seeing you in the asoiaf fandom drawing sansa and jonsa and nedsei and jaimecat and nedcat woah 🫶🏻 ilysm! thank you!

LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! 😭😭🎉🎉💖💖

I LOVE YOU TOO TYSM!!!!!!!! And no need to thank me Anon :')

Has Dunk learned to act a little bit?🫤 He used to be terrible at acting

I MEAN. did he get better compared to star in my mind and hidden agenda? definitely. i think we would do him a disservice not to recognize that he did somewhat improve in these past couple of years. but would i say he has become a decent actor?

i always try my best to be honest about my opinions, and in this case while i can definitely acknowledge his improvements, i also have to admit that there are some moments where i still find him very painful to watch ;;;;;;;;

that being said, im actually enjoying dunk tremendously in the heart killers, style is such a different character compared to what he’s been used to play, and i think this kind of loud and brash and flirty and over the top personality fits dunk so much better than the quieter and shyer type: it gives him a sort of charm that is pretty much irresistible. the other thing is….i can actually overlook not so good acting skills if the on-screen chemistry between the pair is nice, which probably makes me sound a bit shallow maybe, but i do think that it helps balancing things out a little since bad acting tends to take you out of the story, while great chemistry is able to pull you in and keep you engaged. AND BY GOD DO JOONGDUNK HAVE SOME CRAZY UNREAL SIZZLING ELECTRIFYING MAGNETIC LEVELS OF CHEMISTRY

they also FINALLY have a very interesting and compelling plot to support it, so even if i don't think dunk will ever be the best actor, i do enjoy watching him and joong as a pair!!!!!

Have you or do you want to play any other game from Rockstar

Yes actually!! The few games I played from rockstar were gta san andreas, gta 5, and red dead redemption (1, 2, and undead nightmare. Absolutely ADORE rdr,,)

I always wanted to get into manhunt because I keep seeing one of the characters from there drawn with Jimmy - it looks super interesting,, and i also wanted to fully learn the lore of gta - i never really paid attention to the story when I was younger and still had the games. One day when I get the time again,,

[inkykeiji]

im fully convinced flawless tomura gets the WORST mancolds

he’s always whining that he’s not gonna make it or that he wants to be put out of his misery despite only having a minor cold or flu and demands to have ice cream and sweets despite reader insisting they won’t help him get better (but he gets his way anyway because he’s our beloved crunchy gamer daddy <3)

- 🌿

OOOOH HEHEHE i wrote a lil piece about him being sick right here but i can totally see what you’re saying, yes!!! because the man absolutely does not take good or proper care of himself, and he often snaps and is extraordinarily uncooperative with anyone who does try to take care of him <3 AND YET, despite his reluctance and vehement resistance/aversion to taking proper care of himself + allowing others to take proper care of him, he has the damn audacity to whine when his lifestyle and behaviours catch up with him and leave him bedridden for a week! his rampant drug binges def do not help the situation, and he becomes infinitely more bratty and entitled whenever he’s ill. it makes denying him his (extremely, outrageously high) daily dose of sugar and convincing him to take medication or drink something other than soda and energy drinks that much more difficult >.> god bless kurogiri’s soul.

he insists you stay with him, baby him, and give him whatever he asks for, the very instant he asks for it. his clinginess is turned up to eleven, and all he wants you to do is pet his hair and coo at how sick he is.
