#I’m just in a rambling mood lol

[promptsforyourwhumpfic]

Okay. Hear me out.

No I didn’t get my WT stuff completed on that day, however I have since completed it (yay!) and have been working with the other mods to finish the final event posts.

In the background I have been writing some oc-to-vember stuff that I’d like to post at some point. I understand that a lot of these things should be posted the day of, I just severely lack focus at the moment - I either ‘lock in’ or stare at an empty word doc.

I’ve also been recovering from a surgery that I had just over a week ago (top surgery), but I am feeling great aside from the expected/usual post-surgery discomfort. I tell you what: I do feel closer to my whumpees because of it, hahah!

Funny story from the experience: I met my surgeon before I went into theatre. In those few minutes, he came in, drew some lines for the incisions, asked me a couple of questions, and then left saying ‘Okay, bye bye, see you later.’ Fun fact: I did not see him later. Not even after the surgery. At this point I’m not 100% sure he exists, but he did such a good job I’ll let it slide XD

I also went through the whole ‘huh this anaesthesia doesn’t seem to be working’ thought process before suddenly waking up, and the surgery being over. The first words out of my mouth were literally “huh, that was quick.”

So yeah. Sorry for the rambling, this is just where I’m at, at the moment. I’d love to share some of my writing with you, and then get back to posting more prompts!

Much love x

I know I’m behind on my WT prompts posting, but I’ve found a really good OC-tober list that I want to do.

So I’m going to set myself a goal: if I get my WT stuff completed/queued today, then I’ll do an OC-to-vember! (OC-tober… in November XD)

Just want to try something different as well as have the excuse to flesh out my characters.

Fun and slightly depressing fact: before the UF reboot came along I was in a creative slump for most of this year and was a hot minute away from giving up on fic writing entirely bc I had just about lost passion for it. Amazing that the fic I nearly gave up on forever was the thing that dragged me back into hell huh?

Brain: Maybe if you reread Breath of the Sky that would help with inspiration for it. :)

a couple wips and pieces done over the course of this year that will never be completed but felt cute enough to post … yes i draw a lot of leaf she just never makes it outta procreate to tumblr 😭 here are my reasons for leaving them in wip hell:

1. this was half of the piece, other half had hilbert and cheren looking at the girls. hilbert looked really good but i couldn’t get the perspective of cheren to work. was meant to show the reunion of hilda and cheren after the bw -> bw2 timeskip!

2 & 6. kantrio alola trip!! orginally drew blues body for anatomy practice and because of that the pose came out looking too stiff? the 2nd half of the piece had red in it but literally couldn’t get his face to work no matter how hard i tried lol. 6 was just for fun the concept of instagram in the pokemon world makes me giggle. LOVE how i rendered leaf so RIP

3. just a fun leaf drawing!!! just hated the piece next to it! still love how leaf looks there tho! outfit was based off avril lavignes ‘he wasn’t’ mv and dialogue from blues route 22 battle in frlg!

4. my adult design of clem, my fan daughter of red! originally was going to make into a nicer piece but i accidentally merged all the sketch layers together and that demotivated me LOL this happens way too often but still want to redraw clems design bc i really love the pose & outfit!!!

5. based off a part of my very long kanto au! looks fine? just didn’t love the blue piece next to it and always get kinda shy to share my blue x leaf work.

my social battery is smashed into pieces 😞

Let’s see:

1. The curtain of light is mentioned only in a Bran chapter

2. The very first chapter of the first book is about an Other killing a brother of the Night’s Watch that looks like a Stark

3. Sam and Jon spend the entire series fighting wights and Others

4. all the mythology about the living dead is set in the North -thank you Old Nan-

5. Bran the Builder built a gigantic wall and a geotermal castle to stop them

But

Platinum Barbie has dragons! She’s the solution! I have connected the dots!… 🥴

part of why it’s so annoying is exactly that - the ice part of the song centers in the north, this apocalypse that’s spiraling out of control and no one cares to fight it except a few people. meanwhile, the fire part is clearly centered around dani and…her dragons are spiraling out of control and dani more and more turns a blind eye. you have so much of the northern magic in bran’s chapters, so much rich, interesting writing and information including the stupid curtain but all of that in the end is about…dani apparently. and we ignore that bran shares a name with bran the builder. we ignore that the kings of winter were doing fine for thousands of years until the targs showed up and periodically set the continent on fire every 50 years over the iron throne. we ignore that the valyrians were slavers who fell bc of a slave uprising & are still venerated by the targs & dani. we ignore that the long night happened before and *didn’t need a dragon to stop it.* ignore the CONTINENTAL WALL and ICE ZOMBIE DEFENDED CASTLE that stopped it the first time. ignore that dragons refuse to fly north of the wall.

all for…what? WHAT??? if dani is important to the endgame, let’s see the proof! “but i love her” IS NOT PROOF. I love theon’s lil flop ass, i don’t think he’s gonna single handedly defeat the long night based off a single line in arianne martell’s chapter or something. and like, i go back and forth on jonsa bc i go back and forth on everything in the endgame bc we’re two dense ass books away from it, but i will say is that the d and j/d fans loved to shout down every other reading of the text, which didn’t lead to a lot of great theories. while since i started poking around with the jonsas, even finding i have different opinions in major characters and their trajectories, the theories are *talked about*. i love stumpy’s reread bc it breaks down every theory, even ones that aren’t likely, or she doesn’t agree with, and imo that’s how a series as dense as this should be analyzed. we’re not all going to analyze it the same way but can we not pull nonsense out of our ass at least 😭😭

good morning gay people in my phone. its november 1st which means its basically the first day of christmas for me

[si0writes]

Omg wait that therapist thing is so real. I used to bribe myself to get up so i could have time to do my dailies on genshin! I didn't know that i was doing that!

Also you have me interested in that anime. i've been sober from anime for a year now, you might make me break it TvT.

Oooh so real!!! My therapist and I were gonna choose Genshin but we decided that since it’s too hard to play Genshin and est breakfast (plus I get easily distracted from the task of only doing dailies) that it’d be a lot smarter for me to just limit myself to 1 anime episode with breakfast so I time myself from taking too long eating and so I get to get serotonin hands free so I can focus on peeling my kiwis instead of getting upset over causing my team to die from fruit juices on my screen messing up my gameplay LMAO especially since I get up at 7 and need enough time to get dressed, have breakfast, check my client schedule for the day, pack lunch (if I don’t have enough time to buy it), check I have enough ppe for the day, brush my teeth, do my hair and makeup and do my daily RAT test all before leaving the house with enough time to get to my first client of the day at 11. The life of a at home care worker 💔 I’ve considered adding morning prayer as well (I work for a Christian organisation but I’m a kemetic pagan) but it’s just too much work right now while I’m still getting used to being up early 😭 (plus if I have team meetings like today we do a prayer at the start of that anyways so I just extend it to my deities and add extra bits in honour of them to make up for the fact that most of my devotion is offering my services to my deities since it’s acts of service LOL))

Anyways all that aside, I definitely recommend oshi no ko!! I’ve only seen the first episode so I can’t comment on the series entirely but I chose it because I’ve been meaning to watch it forever and it just got s2 announced so my therapist said to start it sooner rather than later so I don’t feel overwhelmed trying to speedrun it all after S2 comes out! The artstyle is so gorgeous tho and as a singer myself, the comments it makes on the industry is so correct even from the perspective of an Australian jazz singer LOL the first episode is about 83 mins tho so if you want to start it I recommend sitting down and doing it in one sitting if possible!

I have started to accept I am a bit more (re a lot more) psychologically unstable than I thought for a long time and man…. I’m tired of it

Having a fandom post get semi popular:

I have two very angsty Elemental one shots in the works as well as a smut with no plot…where is the FLUFF lmao

In case anyone is wondering, this is what it feels like to see all of the PJO show thoughts as someone who has no interest in watching it:

[obstinaterixatrix]

god I could go for a crematorium-ish romance right now. but like not the ones I’ve already read something new. I’ve reread my bias so many times I wanna see a different guy stepping on rakes and getting kicked down flights of stairs and wailing sobbing throwing himself to the ground groveling for forgiveness. and being hit by a car

[birdietrait]

haven’t even written any of it but my current wip is making me Feel Things
