#I'm gonna read a bit more for funzies

[elsa-fogen]

So. On the topic of Alastor headcannons. What's your opinion on these radio themed ones:

Alastor has an internal radio. Like the concept of having songs play through your head, but more literal. He can tune to stations as if he was a radio himself. And if he really wants to, he can connect himself to other radios in his immediate vicinity and play that music though them instead.

His antlers help his radio powers. So when they get damaged (in battle, sheds them, whatever reason you wanna put here) his internal radio goes bazerk. Think; flipping stations randomly, connecting to other radios when he doesn't want it to, playing loud static at random. All the chaos.

He can hear through other radios. He once had to listen to Vox playing Barbie Girl through a TV right next to a radio in Vox's studio, for a week straight. Surely enough; Barbie Girl is now banned from all radio stations in hell.

What do you think? I got more like these if you like them. Give me a generic topic and I can probably list several under that category.

OHH RADIO HEASCANONS

Yes, but he also can turn it on and off when he needs

Never thought about it, but it's funny (don't think i'm going to use it anywhere but who knows, maybe i'll make some funzies with that)

Pretty much used it in one my comic slihdsdkjfh +headcanon that Vox taught him that, he also can control when and which radio he wants to listen (or his head would be a horrible mess) ut i like headcanon that he has some songs banned on the radio lol

speaking of other radiostations, i actually made an instruction on How To get Your Own Radio Station In Hell, let me just find it real quick... i wanted to share it long ago, but couldn't find a moment

Imagine you're a normal sinner in hell, who suddenly wants to become radio host for one small station. and it's possible! and you won't even die, and get some benefits, if succeed. So, it's kinda hard, but doable

1. You need to write a letter asking for a permission to have your own station to The Radio Demon himself. a) letter should be handwritten, and your handwriting must be at least readable. Or you can use typewriter, if you find one. DO NOT write it on a computer and then print, you'll probably won't be able to get your station in following 50 years b) You should send your letter via post. DO NOT try to meet Radio Demon in person, you'll just lose time, or even if you get lucky, he won't take your letter. b*) Now you can just come to Hazbin Hotel and give your letter to Charlie Morningstar and ask her to give it to Radio Demon. Don't worry, she won't read it. b**) You should leave your contacts, that's obligatory if you want to get an answer - that means you have to have a place to live. c) Do not try to e-mail him, he doesn't even have a phone or computer to receive it. If someone gives you 100% totally real Radio Demon's e-mail - don't trust them, its fake 2. You'll get answer from the Radio Demon in 1-2 weeks, he'll send you set of papers which you have to fill out. You'll probably have to do it 3-4 times so don't worry, he's just testing your dedication. In these papers you give general info about your future radio station - the name, schedule, what activities you'll gonna have and what kinds of music wanna play. Include some jazz, especially if you mostly want to have modern music. You'll also have to tell a bit about yourself. You absolutely should not be connected to voxtech in any way. 2.b) he may simply dislike your ass and become a real bureaucratic monster. Keep trying - you can impress him with you dedication and he may like you in the end 3. When you got your application approved, you'll have to sign a contract, that gives you right to broadcast on a certain radio frequency. According to the contract - your radio station belongs to the Radio Demon, you'll just getting it in unlimited use, until the contract terminated. You DO NOT sell your soul to the Radio Demon. He can broadcast over you any time he needs and you can't do anything about it. He can also ask you to change something in your broadcast schedule, ask to replace of cancel any of your programs, ban music and so on. (Tho, he probably won't do anything of it). But since your radio station is his property, you're as well under his protection while you on your station, so if someone attacks you and you're unable to protect yourself and your station, you'll have a way to contact him and ask for help. You'll have a specific channel for it and list of morse codes for emergencies. You should not use this channel for anything else, or you'll lose your station. 4. After all paperwork is done and approved, you have to get equipment for your station. DO NOT use ANYTHING voxtech related, and you absolutely cannot have TV on your station. 5. After you got all the equipment, invite the Radio Demon to your station. He'll set everything up for you and give you list of emergency codes. Do not try to interrupt his infodumps even if you lost track of it and can't understand shit, it's better if you show enthusiasm. 6. And done! Now you are happy small radio host! The Radio Demon may show up on your station sometimes to check how everything's going, but don't worry about it, he won't be bother you too often after few weeks.

P. S. You are NOT friends with the Radio Demon, even if he acts friendly and calls you "dear" - that's just his normal, not-threatenning behavior P. P. S. Don't be too personal, don't dump on him your problems if they aren't related to the station when he comes to you. Just make him some coffee, talk about weather and tell that everything works just fine P. P. P. S. ABSOLUTELY! DO NOT! TRY TO HUG HIM! He'll just laugh at you, and if you somehow succeed he'll make everything to make you regret every action in your life and afterlife that led you to this moment (and it doesn't necessarily means he will torture you physically, once he run into masacistic freak that got a boner when was tortured) P. P. P. P. S. If you caught feelings for him - suffer in silence and NEVER try to confess. You'll lose your station immediately and will never get it back.

All these instructions are totally written by Rosie who heared so many complaints from Alastor about how people want to become a radio host but can't do it properly

And Alastor is probably making them experience what he went through to become a radio host in life

GOD, TUMBLR WHY UR SUCH AN ASS TODAY WTF LET ME JUST POST MY SILLY TEXT

[vacantgodling]

Hi, I hate to be a bother but is chapter 1 of Paramour (hope I'm spelling that right) the only chapter you've shared or are there more posted? your writing is so good and I've fallen in love with the story after seeing your anniversary art. Also, do you post it anywhere outside of Tumblr? unfortunately, the color scheme of your blog and the size of the font makes it hard for my poor eyesight to read (No hate to you btw I just zoom in real close)

hello hello!! firstly you are not at ALL a bother <3 (also you're spelling it right lol) regarding my desktop blog, i bumped up the font size so i hope that's helped it be a bit more readable? i'm planning on changing up color schemes and the like at the end of this year, but i hope the size change makes it more bearable ;3;

secondly, hearing that people like my writing enough to want to seek more of it has me giggling and kicking my feet so THANK YOU for enjoying chapter 1 and the art so much--there's some details that may or may not get added in whenever i eventually make a third pass at writing this behemoth and i spent 6 hours slaving over that drawing LMAO SO i really appreciate you reading it AND telling me you enjoyed it im so EEEE

at this time, i'm not formally publishing / putting out paramour because its still very much a work-in-progress (essentially, i'm working on draft 2 right now bc i'm doing some major outline renovating, but tbh i'm thinking that when i DO feel like i'm at the point that i want to publish it, i'm kinda leaning towards a serial style like @/stjohnstarling's what manner of man... but those are details for several years from now, i'm just rambling at this point) BUT FEAR NOT!! its my main obsession at all times and i have posted a TON about it on my blog. but for your convenience, i've compiled all the 'main' writing bits that i've posted on this blog over the past several years into this ask so that way if you wanna just read the 'main' meat and potatoes that i've decided to release from the vault so to speak... then here they are.

but, if in general you want to peruse my main wip tag, i talk about paramour so much its Ridiculous lmao -> s: paramour and you can check out the overview powerpoint intro i made for it here, just to get a clearer picture of what the heckie is going on lol -> powerpoint intro

anyway though, the list of main writings, broken into a couple of sections. i will also preface, that chapter 1 doesn't make it too apparent--but there is a LOT of sex, kink, and romance involved in this story. so proceed at your own disgression dear anon since i'm not sure how you feel about that lol.

song recommendation: Glue Song - Beebadoobee and Clairo

- First of all, I think this man would be OBSESSED WITH YOU

- Literally the first time you guys meet, he swears it’s love at first sight.

- He finds y’all��s height difference absolutely adorable. He loves it so much. He’ll never make any short jokes to tease you or anything like that (bc he knows what that’s like) but he’ll always give you a compliment on how cute you are to him.

- he loves spoiling you and taking care of you anytime he can. Giving you the best gifts, taking you on all sorts of extravagant trips, and doing it all with a big bouquet of your favorite flowers.

- You are his COMPLETE MUSE! I feel like he would definitely be the type to write you endless love songs. Literally the first time you guys met he’s already got ideas for his next song. Everytime he plays music, all he can think of is you.

- He’s definitely picking you up and carrying you with those big arms of his. (imagine the after workout pics that he’d definitely be sending you 😵‍💫)

- Whenever you start to feel insecure or overthink, he’s always gonna be there with open arms for you. He’s probably the best guy to talk to about these things. He’s always gonna validate your feelings no matter what

- He’s more than happy to be the extroverted one in your guy's relationship. He does love to see you reach out and be extroverted sometimes too though! He just knows how fun you can be and loves seeing that side show.

- The first time he ever saw your drawing he was amazed. He thinks you’re so talented. Every time you draw he will sometimes sit and watch you attentively doing it. He probs keeps one of your drawings in his back pocket just for funzies.

- Same for your paper crafts! He thinks those are the neatest things EVER

- I have the sweetest image of him, whenever you guys are together alone just hanging out, he’d love to sit there and draw a heart around your birthmarks, i know it sounds a bit silly but he’d have so much fun doing it haha.

- he’s playing with your dog just about every chance he gets, he thinks they’re the cutest thing ever

- Both of you really like animals, so I could definitely see you guys going to the zoo or something fun like that for a date!

- For your birthday or valentines, maybe even for your anniversary he’s probably going to write you the most heartfelt poem ever (tears would def be shed over it knowing him)

- He would find ice skating such a CUTE idea for a date. Like you helping him visibly struggle, while you’re gliding with ease on the ice

- HE WOULD LOVE PLAYING VIDEO GAMES WITH YOU!! You and him are for sure that one couple who stays up late into the night competing against each other on a game.

- You want someone who’s patient and good at listening? Listen up then, cause this guy would really be the best for you. You guys would really have the best time together all around, and I'm sure you’d make him the happiest person in the world!

I hope you enjoyed this lovely! You deserved it! 💗💗

AO3 WRAPPED NUMBER 29 but i want u to give me ur top 3. or top 5 if u have a lot

29. Favorite line/passage you wrote this year?

MAC MY FRIEND MAC GHOSTIEZONE!!! my top fav passages i've written this year.... this is gonna take a while to answer i have so so many to choose from omg.... i'm gonna put this under a cut bc it is going 2 be Long (also i am going 2 tag u because idk if u have seen it yet and i v much want u to see the dstuck passage i'm posting it's got wilbur in it :3 @stuck-in-the-ghost-zone )

3: this one is from my ctubbo oneshot titled Harlequin that i wrote on impulse in early september. mac idk if u have read it but u should i think u would like it :3 the style of it is v experimental in a lot of places but i had SOOOOO MUCH FUN writing it and it's kinda angsty but the ending is sweet and i reread it and was like ;-; this fic was very much me projecting onto ctubbo OK HERE'S A QUICK PASSAGE :3

Tommy is your brother, you think, but not in the way he and Wilbur are brothers. They’re brothers in general, two different souls who experienced such different walks of life and stick together regardless, who follow each other to the ends of the earth no matter how wrong or bad one of them thinks the other is.

You and Tommy are more like... kindred spirits. Brothers in war, allies in politics, victims of abuse who pull each other up by your boot straps and lean on each other so you can keep going side by side.

It’s never just Tommy, or just Tubbo. It’s always Tommy and Tubbo.

Like one name.

TommyandTubbo. TubboandTommy. T+T.

Brothers in experience. Partners in life. Two sides of the same coin. Inseparable.

But that’s just the thing, isn’t it? You’re part of the same coin, but people look at you and see two heads, one on each side, no tails. Nothing at all to differentiate the two.

You could draw horns on one side and a white streak on the other, but at the end of the day they always see two copies.

When people run into you, they ask “Where’s Tommy?” “Do you know where Tommy’s been lately?” “What’s Tommy up to?”

You can’t always answer that.

For as much as you’re inseparable, sometimes you’re both alone for a bit. You always come back around like two magnets drawn to each other until something or someone yank you apart again.

You don’t like being a copy.

You don’t even know if Tommy realizes that’s what you are.

Tommy and Tubbo.

The main character and his sidekick.

He called you the main character once, during the Disc Confrontation, and himself the sidekick, and hearing that

it

actually made you

relieved.

Even if everyone else sees you as a second quieter Tommy, he doesn’t.

That counts for something.

2: MY VASHWOOD FIC Just As Beautiful As The Day I Lost You MY BELOVED <3 ughhhh writing this was so sad i genuinely cried doing it. the moment wolfwood remembers vash is what gets me. ik you've read it already but here's that one little passage here for u just for funzies <3 NOW CRY!!!!!!

The video stops.

Vash snaps his gaze to Rosewood. He’s trembling like a wet cat, hand poised over the spacebar. His breath hitches once, twice. He turns to Vash, slowly, just as tears begin to spill down his cheeks.

“What the hell, Needle Noggin,” he whispers. “What the fuck are you doing to me?”

Uncertainty is the only thing Vash can respond with. He steps closer, hand hovering over Rosewood’s shoulder. “I... don’t...”

Rosewood pushes the chair back, wooden legs scraping across the floor, doubles over, and buries his face in his hands. Vash takes that as a signal to do something, so he rests his hand on Rosewood’s back. After the comfort Rosewood gave him last night, it’s the least he can do, really.

Rosewood chokes back a sob. “I shouldn’t know these people,” he says, voice thick with tears. “How... do I know them? How do I know you?”

Vash’s heart leaps into his throat. He kneels in front of the chair so he’s level with Rosewood. “Do... Do you...”

Rosewood looks up, an angry furrow in his brow, even he wipes tears from his eyes. The expression is so incredibly Wolfwood that Vash doesn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

“This past week has been fucking torture, Spikey. You��I saw you leave church last Sunday, and I didn’t even see any of this,” he gestures to Vash in general, the spikey hair, the glasses, the scars, “but you just—you stuck in my head and I couldn’t explain why. I... I still can’t.” He gives a wet laugh. “Humanoid Typhoon my ass. You’re more like a parasite.”

A lump forms in Vash’s throat, alongside something so bright and hopeful he feels dizzy with it. Hands shaking, unsteady like they’ve never been before, he reaches out, fingers brushing over Rosewood’s jaw. He wipes away a stray tear, stubble sharp beneath his thumb.

Rosewood sniffles, shakes his head. “Don’t look at me like that, Needle Noggin. I can’t take it when you smile like that.”

Vash swallows. As quiet as can be, barely any breath behind his voice, he says

“Wolfwood?”

A sob rips itself from the throat of the man in front of him. Vash catches him as he lunges from his chair and into Vash’s arms, heaving cries pressed into his shirt. Vash holds him tight, hands clenched in his jacket. The black poncho remains on Vash’s lap, pressed between them. A stray tear soaks into the fabric. It takes Vash a moment to realize it fell from his own face.

He's never been so uncertain in his life.

But whatever this is, whatever he’s awakened in the priest in his arms, whether it’s real or a delusion, he wants to keep it.

He tucks his face into the crook between a neck and a shoulder, and he cries.

1: i think my fav thing i've written this year would be the tntduo chapter of dstuck that i sent you a while ago BUT since u have already read that and it's wayyyy too long to put in one post i am going to choose a different dstuck thing. most of the passages i wanna put here would involve MAJOR SPOILERS but i have one chatlog between wilbur and one of the cherubs i'm putting in there to kind of sort of replace cdream (i don't like ccdrm but his character is Important so i basically split him in two as a cherub and changed his name). honestly it was kind of a hard decision to change his name bc he's such an iconic villain but i think i did ok with still capturing his Evilness and his shitty asshole vibes ANYWAY this is one of my fav parts of this chapter i love writing chatlogs <3 tw for ummm some brief suicidal ideation bc it's cwilbur that's how it goes

hi wilbur! IO: Ah fuck, what do you want? can’t i just say hi and see how you’re doing? IO: I mean, I can’t stop you, I guess. you’re getting closer and closer to entering this game. isn’t that exciting? IO: Sure. you don’t sound excited. :( IO: What do you mean? This is the picture of excitement. IO: Look at me, I’m jumping up and down with joy at the prospect. liar. IO: Fuck you. hey, now don’t be rude! we’re friends, aren’t we wilbur? IO: We were, yeah. IO: When I was like, twelve. IO: But you started bad mouthing my bro and the rebellion and being all shitty and manipulative, and I literally tried to kms whben I was fourteen because of the shit you’ve said so like IO: No I wouldn’t say we;re friends. but we’re past that! i’ve changed, wilbur. IO: Yeah yeah so you keep fucking saying. if we’re not friends, why do you keep responding? IO: Because you’ll keep fucking bothering me until I do it's just because i want to talk to you. is that really so wrong? IO: Yeah IO: I know the shit that you did to my bro and I don’t fucking much appreciate it that was ages ago! come on, wilbur. you’ll get me out of here, won’t you? IO: If I could kill you I would. man, tough crowd. i think you’ll come around eventually. and even when i do get out of here without your help, your bro is the first one i’ll go for. i’m sure you know this, because it happened in your past. and then i’ll go for the little one. your pen pal. :) he is your bro, after all, and yeah, maybe the older one will slip through my fingers, but your pen pal? he's still young. your bro will get away from me when we’re both older, but your pen pal won’t defeat me while he’s just a kid, and i’m a GOD. :)

The chatlog closes on its own.

He used to be nice, but you think it’s just because he wanted to be your friend. Or, at least, pretend to be your friend. He filled you in on a lot of information about your future and the game, about your upcoming journey as a Bard of Heart, how destructive the class is, how you’re fated to destroy everything you’ve ever held dear and harm the people you love, the nuances of your aspect, the role you’re meant to play in this game.

He called you a supernova in the making, a nuclear bomb waiting to go off, a personified Chernobyl in your own right. It sounded kind of cool at the time, but it placed this heavy weight on your shoulders, this expectation for destruction.

You’re pretty sure he lied about most of the stuff he’s told you, but you can never be sure. You’re set on relying on Phil’s foresight to tell you your role now, although he doesn’t have all the answers. Still, it’s better than running in blind with your only guidance being the ravings of a madman from the distant future. He used to be so kind, it was hard not to believe him.

He wasn’t so kind when you had a sword at your own chest.

[psychelis-new]

Since you mentioned that, I remembered something! I saw a dog at the store and he had mud in his fur. Bingo! Everything you said so far is making sense too (with the mud interpretation)

Yup, exactly! That detail could have been just this "memory" of what you saw that stood out to you and your unconscious stored it inside; then it popped up randomly in the dream either for funzies or to stress something (I think in your case was to stress soemthing but... ofc I may be wrong). You could potentially keep such a detail in your mind for few days, rarely more as per my own experience, until it's time for it to come up.

Sometimes these irl details may act as some type of triggers from which the dream's message takes over, jsyk, but it may depend on the attention you put on them. Like if you notice something "strange/uncommon" or something that you know makes you a bit "anxious" or such, but you just notice it and don't process it cause there's no big reason to (like for you, the mud on the dog's fur), it may be easier for your unconscious to store it and put it in a dream in which "it makes sense" (not talking about the dream making sense ofc but, back to your dream: falling and get mud on yourself does make sense; the dog itself may have got mud while playing/running and "falling/rolling" on wet ground/grass).

For example, I have this "fear" of wasps/bees after I got stung in my hand as a child and it occasionally happened that if I saw wasps/bees on screen or around me irl, I would have had dreams (generally bad ones, nightmares) with them being a trigger for something, not necessarily my fear for them per se. But if I see them and tell myself "Okay I saw this wasp please don't let me have dreams about it thanks/now I'm gonna have dreams about it" or act as I am consious of my fear or someone mentions it to me, I am very likely not going to have a dream about wasps/bees.

Ofc I'm not saying to go crazy and process everything you see: if you need to get a message of any type, you will anyway. Enjoy your life as usual. I told you all this so that in case you dream about something you saw/read/heard.... in the previous days, you know how to look at it (more or less, at least).

Hope this helps :)

Random thing I'm gonna do...

Forward -

For anyone who follows my other account, they will know I am having a bit of a nostalgia time for some of the old shows and movies of my childhood. Why... No idea I assume it just kinda happens. But in my general Nostalgia digging I managed to track down, an original complete S1 DVD of House Of Anubis. And yes I do plan on tracking down the rest of the series as well, and as I got... maybe ten minutes into EP1 I had a thought, why not share my chaotic opinions and thoughts. So that my plan as I watch I will be making notes of the random chaos that comes into my brain and sharing it with you guys! Just for funzies really,

Context -

On me : For anyone who doesn't know... which I assume is most of you given I am not sure I've ever said it before, but I am a media and TV and film graduate. I legit have a degree in this stuff does that mean my opinion is better than anyone else's? No. But I do know the fancy usually French words for it.

I was also, A Kid when this show came out. and watched the episodes when the first aired (In the Uk), for a time House of Anubis was my favourite show (Yes if you look up the airing dates you'll be able to see how old I am which is why I'm not saying how old I was when it aired), and I legit haven't watched this show apart from a few random episodes within the last year since when it first aired, so this show is my childhood. That does mean I may be a bit more kind and nostalgic for some of the... worse bits of it cause this was my childhood and I will give it more credit because of that. Some... characters for example I may view a little more favourably, because of childhood attachment... I'll let anyone from my main account guess which character I'm talking about here.

Also as the last point mentioned, I am from the UK. So I watched the UK show version of the show and have the UK DVD. So if the US got a slightly different edit... I don't know, never saw it. And because I am from the UK I am watching this with a UK mind, stuff like language, trends of the time, and even just that the show is based in a UK school means I'm gonna have some opinions in those areas.

I actually outgrew the show around S3 ish just cause I was older and moving on to other shows and such, the hyper fixation had changed as it were. But if I even get that far it will be interesting to see what I think of some of the episodes I never saw.

Lil disclaimer,

This is my opinion, if you have a different one feel free to share but... guys this is a kid's show from 2011. None of us should be thinking this hard about it.

I will be watching them in the order they are on the S1 DVD and I will be classing one Episode Theme song to the end credits. I know this show was split up strangely with the double episode kinds of things but as it goes on the DVD, the Theme song to the End credits.

So Anyone who wants to come along with me and read my chaos welcome!

[unmeiokaemasu]

also because I will not let this go, I think I found the main reason for the Limstella gender misunderstanding:

(thank you to FE fandom wiki and pegasusknight for script sources)

so yeah the original term wasn’t gendered, it was -sama a.k.a. the most basic generic honorific to denote someone who outranks you, but I guess they decided to translate it as “lord” or “lady” and just picked one. Possibly came down on the side of “lady” since they’d already been using that for Sonia.

[doodles-by-noodles]

Heyy!! I'm someone who know you from the fanfiction "Amalgamate" ^^ you did a pixelart of this fic (Kaito and Kokichi's as Amalgamate from Undertale) i have no experience but i'm kinda interested in pixelart , so i would love to know how did you created this ? ^^

Eyyyy, I love seeing Amalgamate fans on my page!

For the people who aren't in the server or haven't read the most recent chapter (don't worry I'm not about to spoil anything! ... for that chapter) I did THIS bit of pixel art for the fic.

I decided to make something Undertale inspired, and you you get it you just get it lol.

In terms of how I made it though... I really can't recommend my methods- They're kind of messy to be honest.

I use Medibang Paint Pro to do all of my digital art and this piece is no exception. I started by making a basic sketch, then I went in and made sure that Anti Aliasing was turned off so I could get that pixelated look.

I'm gonna be honest a LOT of the process on the original sprite was trial and error.

I am gonna admit that I used a background from someone else online and here's the link to what I used :)

In terms of making it a gif I drew both frames (or more accurately I modified the first frame the way I wanted it to move-) saved both as separate .png files and popped them into Ezgif and messed around with the frame rate until I was satisfied.

I'm sorry I don't have anything more in depth, but this was honestly just a little for funzies project! There are a lot of explanations out there that are WAY more thorough than mine!

I hope this was helpful regardless!

Previously on My Updates

I am supposed to do these daily. At most I have fallen behind like a couple months. This previously on post is for 5/27/2021-1/19/2022. That's 237 days... that's almost two thirds of the year. AHHHHH.

Anywho, I'm just gonna give y'all the spark notes.

I wasn't updating because I wasn't writing. I did complete three works, but there was absolutely no consistency. The works were: Untether, Guardian, and For Them which are all posted here. I was busy with work and also had a shitty job that sucked so I didn't really have time to write plus Untether just took everything out of me. I was writing until the last possible second, and I haven't read it since I posted it. Probably needs some work. There are parts I love, scenes I love, but I haven't touched it in so long.

Guardian was just a short I wanted to post because it was the last Ekphrastic Writing Contest being held and that contest has done a lot for me so I wanted to write something, but December was really busy and I just didn't think about it until the last second. I do think my story is cute though. Most of the pieces I want to write are back catalogs for Contests I missed.

For Them is still a story I wrote close to the wire, but I gave myself a lot more room to breathe. It was very fun. It was for the Candlenights Exchange. I had a hard time coming up with a specific story but I figured it out.

I wanna get back into writing. I want to have fun with it again. That's like my main goal for 2022 is to write more consistently and I especially want to enjoy it.

I'm gonna do my Weekly Update on this too, just for funzies. I missed weeks 176 -this week 210. I have no goals for them as it's been months.

I don't think I've done a monthly post in a bit.

My Quarterly Goals also don't really mean anything right now. Again I missed 237 day which is seven almost eight months but also the last quarter I updated was Jan - Mar of 2021...

Yearly Goals are the only ones I can actually update.

~ clean more I feel like I was cleaning all the time. But probably not.

~ exercise more Yes. I walked to work a lot.

~ less soda Absolutely not. I've been depressed and caffeine and high fructose corn syrup are stimulating.

Okay so new Goals below

AHHH Thank you for all these thoughtful answers!!!

1: Oooh, Princess Mononoke is an excellent choice, there's a lot of beautiful mysticism to that movie that's really tasty, but there's also a real lovely inspection of human nature there that I think is fun to watch AND read about. Personally, I'm obsessed with heightened beauty stuff, so my go tos for when I really wanna like, get a 'texture' so to speak? of what I'd like my writing to look like in ones mind, I lean into things like Devdas and The House of Flying Daggers, bollywood films and heightened beauty eastern films also have that like... fantastical, otherworldly loveliness while still having characters who are relatable. Plus both of those specifically are as beautiful as they are GUT WRENCHING lmao highly recommend if you haven't watched/heard of either.

2: I definitely feel you on this, I have a roleplay going right now that allows me to do this kind of, sensation surrealism in droves cuz we've got a kind of SCP, weird area phenomena, people with strange sensation based powers thing going. My character Beaux experiences places and people in all the normal sensory ways, but also with extra-sensory experiences of them through taste and touch, which is LOADS of fun to get into, and challenges me to look for unique things to reference, because it's easy to say people all taste like food and touches are all 'caresses' and 'scratching' and so on. Really gotta flex my imagination about feeling in that way, let alone all the weird spooky stuff that happens when he and his partner Niko go poking around in phenomena!

3: Oooh, those are excellent choices! I haven't read Lies of Locke Lamora by Scott Lynch, what's that about? I don't have a lot of books from my childhood I've reread... I've picked up the Count of Monte Cristo a couple times since I was a kid, but I never really get around to finishing that absolute door stopper lmao. Right now I'm rereading The Persian Boy by Mary Renault, and it's one of my favorite books ever lol. I've read The Song of Achilles a dozen times, and I think I might reread Harrow and Gideon the Ninth just for funzies. I tend to only reread books if they have some excellent world building and an interesting romantic aspect to them (I barely read anything that doesn't have romance in it, I get bored if no one's gonna kiss lol), but I'm kinda picky and DNF tons of books that at first catch my eye because they sound like they'll be fun lol. I reread roleplays all the time, which might seem a little egotistical lol but it's just because my polycule is all really fun writers, and writing with them is as fun as rereading the wild stuff we come up with.

4: Enemies to Lovers got me banging my credit card on my desk I STGGGGGG, I wish there were more books I could think of that do that well! Iron Widow I recently read and that was pretty fun, though the enemy element of it was more circumstantial than personal, but still, a good time! And I love a slow burn too even though I wanna throw a book through a window sometimes about it. Even in some of the stuff I'm writing right now I will literally be frustrating myself lmao out here like "KISS ALREADY FOR FUCK'S SAKE" only to of course, not have them kiss lmao. Oooh Opposite personalities is fun too, especially when they don't initially compliment each other but learn to? I think that's very sweet lol, where at the start, they're just in opposition, but they learn to compliment one another and protect each other's flaws. THAT'S THE SHIT I DO LIKEEEE lmao.

5: Oh my gosh 👀 Peony WHAT HAPPENED??? I love that name-- there's so many lovely little bits in this, well done! I really like 'efficiently practiced and dulled by routine.' and '. A desperate reach toward grief earned a vacant echo.' Correct me if I'm wrooooong but it sounds like someone needs therapyyyyyy lmao. Lemme go get you something fun from New Faith. The context of this moment, is that Vincente has contacted his old colleagues in the Vatican about a series of strange possession events, even though he and Mercutio have agreed to stop doing exorcisms. He's gone behind Mercutio's back about it AND they both know they've been trying not to talk about it, so Mercutio is pissed, and Vincente is trying to reason with him about getting involved, that it's the right thing to do.

TW: Drug use mention

“We-We are a team, still. I... wanted to find out what the problem was, before, before I brought it to you. I know you don’t want to deal with this, but people are dying and I’ve already said- if anyone can figure this out, it’s us. It’s us, Mercutio. Any other practitioner would end up like the priest in Alaska. There are other practitioners who already have.” 

In this moment Mercutio wishes Vincente had the sense to use what he knows he can, to close the space between them, grasp and kiss and land himself between Mercutio’s knees, to beg and use his own love against him. They both know he could, but Vincente is firmly planted in the recliner even as he’s leaned forward, trying to use logic and morality to get Mercutio to give up what little peace he’s known in his whole fucking life. He imagines Vincente’s hands around his face, lips against his own, asking over and over for him to do this for him, that they are a team, they always will be, that he needs Mercutio for this. But instead, Vincente’s eyes are the only thing pleading and it is as good as kisses and touches and Mercutio quietly but sincerely hates him for that. 

“When the tape comes in, we’ll listen to it together. I swear to God,” He says this just to be offensive, “If you listen to it before then, without me, you can do this whole thing on your own, whatever it is. I don’t fucking care what it is-- if you find out the whole world’s gonna end you can deal with it yourself if you do anything else without telling me.” Vincente’s back straightens like he’s been struck with an epiphany. 

“Of course. I’m sorry.” He says it so simply, as easy as breathing, as though that’s enough to fix this enormous betrayal. It will be, but it isn’t right now. 

“I’m gonna get high. Go home.” Mercutio tells him, setting the coffee mug down. Vincente is about to protest and Mercutio stands up before he can, throwing his front door open to let in the quiet cricket chirping and far off tv buzz of their street. “Get out.” Mercutio tells him, like he wanted to when this began. Vincente rises, stares, makes his way through the threshold trying to maintain his dignity but looking like nothing less than a dog kicked out for being bad, tail tucked and ears back, scrambling towards the commanded place in hopes for forgiveness. There’s no forgiveness tonight. Mercutio slams the door right as he sees Vincente turning to say something more.

I don’t really talk to anybody on here, which is really a tragedy so I got a few questions to start us talking so I can get to know y'all better.

1: What’s a movie that feels how you want to write?

2: What’s your favorite thing to describe that isn’t like…a person? Like, a thing or a landscape or even a feeling?

3: What’s a book you read over and over?

4: What’s your favorite romance trope?

5: What’s a line from your WIP that makes you go ‘awww yeah boi, that’s the good shit, I am FUCKIN EXCELLENT’? Like- a total mic drop for you, with context if you feel like it!
