#I've actually spent years on this

It's been a long time coming, and the project is still underway, but I've reached a decent length of progress to introduce my ongoing fan project, my Cry of Fear fanfic series.
👉 We Fear the Cry of Monsters 👈 is my (admittedly shippy) continuation of the Cry of Fear good ending, mashed up with a little Afraid of Monsters! I've nurtured this concept for a few years through concept arts and now that it has a written body, it's gaining some traction on AO3 so I wanted to share it in another place where it can be seen by more fans who enjoy mystery, angst, and maybe a little conflicted romance along the way.
"In a season with record rainfall, Simon re-enters the world of therapies among indulgence to new treatments in the hopes of regaining control over his life, even in his lifetime hospital sentencing. Grey Anderson, a fellow inmate, Simon's childhood companion Sophie, and mentor Doctor Purnell all aid him in this journey. But reality gets dicy when a man from his past finds Simon's hospital room and climbs in through the window one night... It's a story of revisiting trauma, learning to trust, and holding faith in the worth of one's own life. Whatever the cost."
Please come have a look if you think you might be interested. I'm a huge fan of horror/psychological stories/symbolic macabre/beautifully dark and suspenseful material, and I draw most of my inspiration from dreams and music.
Thank you so much to everyone who has already supported my writing thus far, and to those who come to the Cry of Fear community out of a common hurt, your pain is not invalid. You are not alone. There's always good out in the world, and good in you.
Bring some tunes and have an indulgent read!

I know this is just a silly bad quality random screencap of a screencap that I found on facebook lol, BUT it's a succinct enough image to easily describe the concept in a quick/accessible way hopefully :
-
(and of course, feel free to elaborate in tags, etc.! (especially elaborating about other senses as well.. can you "hear" in your mind just as well as you can "see"? taste? etc.) It's an interesting topic to me, as someone who's like a 4.5 at MOST lol. I'm curious what option will be the most common :0c )
#tumblr polls#hrmm... a little poll perhaps.. about a subject I find interesting.. since this image came across my facebook today#still really not feeling that well. no longer shaking violently and such but I still feel weird and weak much more than usual#They did say my markers for like infection or inflammation were elevated but that they werent sure of the cause so hopefully#it's nothing too serious. they did also say a lot of different things can cause that thing to be higher than normal but didn't go into spec#fics of what. maybe some of them are relatively benign or something. I still havent felt much back to normal since#I got really sick that one time though. I feel fine on and off but then little bouts of feeling weird and sick happen. hrmmm#ANYWAY.. looking for small ways to be productive. such as little doodles on evil ipad or editing game videos#or posting polls or cat pictures or some other like not very labor intensive things#I WISH I COULD FOCUS on writing HHRGGhh... I need to finish my game.. it would be so freeing.. a project that's been looming#over my head for like 5 years even though througouht that 5yrs I've probably spent a total of 3 months working on it lo.. ANYWAY#I still partially really cannot beleive that people CAN see stuff in their heads. There's always part of me that's thinking like. well mayb#e everyone DOES see the same exact thing but we just describe/conceptualize it so differently that we think we're talking about#different things when we're really not. But I have been assured by people I've talked to about it that they can GENUINELY really see#stuff in their heads like as vivid as an actual picture in real life or something. And the other senses are neat too. Like for exmaple I#can hear in my head much better than I can see imagery. I still CANNOT hear vividly like as if I were listening to actual music out loud..#but I think it's developed more than my sight. AND interesting how this varies the creative process. a friend I was talking to on the phone#said they write by literally just watching stuff play before them like a movie. where my process is COMPLETELY different. AND that affects#the content/what details we focus on as well as our individual styles of writing have differences that can be traced back to that.. hrmm

an assortment of my temeraireverse fic-dragons!
[cygnet and honoré are from fifteenth-century britain and france, aquilillus, flavia magna, and bán are from second-century britain, and cipachcoatzin is from sixteenth-century mesoamerica]
#em draws stuff#em is posting about temeraire#temeraire#temeraire worldbuilding collection#the eagle of the ninth#slightly belated summer of sutcliff#henry v 1989#our scene must to the battle fly#<- so many organizational tags on these. and something in the neighborhood of ten hours of drawing too (ouch my whole body)#real tags be upon you. on account of I've spent one million years on this.#another dispatch from the Em Refuses To Do Lineart Today collection. I was not spending Any more time on these.#actual notes of relevance: bán's relationship to people is Heavily borrowed from luzula's fic 'the flight of dragons' on ao3#(go read it go read it go read it it inspired a lot of what I try to do with the temverse worldbuilding / historical stuff)#aquilillus' name subject to change as I cannot seem to spell it the same twice [neon sign floats over me that says Sucks At Latin]#also. I'm holding cipacton in my arms like a ferret and saying He Is Not Incan over and over. because he isn't. By the way.#last point: an immense thanks to bestie jon's dad's Cheese playlist which I have been looping for this entire drawing time.#The Creation Of This Image was Sponsored By A Concerning Amount of Kenny Loggins and Other Such Silly Sounds.

Why is 13's regen abt a white dude and why is 15's regen abt a white dude when do we get rid of that white man that just Cannot let other people have their own moments I swear this is so old, like really, it's a tale as old as time where white dudes are the center of the narrative and universe and everyone caters to them, and I'm so bored of it being celebrated. It's not innovative, it's not new, it's not brave.
#dw shit#dw negativity#im literally actually bored#We've been Knowing the same shit was done to whittaker and gatwa outside the show#and got treated like we're just bitter bc of very real criticism about the optics and treatment of them botj#*both#and worried that the same thing would happen in the show#and uh...#like really? idc abt wacky plot points but I've just spent Years dealing with ppl#digging under the sea to think of reasons to be pissed at anything that happened in or bts in 13's era#and this foul treatment is front and center and it's not an issue?#gatwa deserves the spotlight in the most important moments#he has been denied them both in and out of the show and i have yet to be given a good reason#as to why that's acceptable.#can somebody Please let dt know this shit bc he's a clueless as fuck privileged white dude but by all accounts seems nice enough#and i think he'd Probably care if he had a clue

By the way, about the female custodes drama - since I just answered anon this came to my mind-, the other day I saw something absolutely "funny".
Apparently most lore yt channels are fine with female custodes, especially those who are known to be lore human libraries.
People's reaction to them: ewww tourists >:c
Then:
Random person who clearly has only read the wiki once: *explain why they are against female custodes*
The same exact people: real man, you know so much omg 🥰
It was.. weird.
#this is not even about the f custodes#its about these clowns#and mind you i know who im talking about for I've chatted with them a few times#i know what im saying#its just mind-blowing that people accuse and harass actual fans but then praise people who haven't opened a book or a codex in 20 years#its like if ill accuse my uni professors of being uncultured about the subject they are teaching me#they have spent years studying that shit and now i arrive and say “lol youre stupid

I never realized how batshit insane it is that in order to get the Epsilon fragment, The Director tells Alpha that Wash died.......AND THEN THEY GO STICK EPSILON IN WASH'S HEAD
#I feel like this is an obvious conclusion to make#but i've always been more focused on epsilon showing wash memories of allison as he self destructs#and in my defense this past week was the first time i've watched s9-10 since like 2015#just took me 9 years and 7500 detours to connect those dots#imagine that your last moment (right before you forcibly jettison all your memories to protect yourself while being tortured)--#--is spent learning that 2 agents died because of your 'mistakes'#and then that personification of memories you created gets plopped down into one of the aforementioned dead agents#who is APPARENTLY NOT ACTUALLY DEAD#rvb#abchats#agent washington#project freelancer

was trying to figure out why I feel so Wrong rn and I think it's because I didn't follow my usual daily routine like At All and now my brain is freaking out. woke up at a vastly different time, had entirely different tasks throughout the day, took a nap at a weird time (to make up for the fact I had about 3 hours of sleep last night), zero human contact for the past 15 hours, and ate different food from usual (various leftovers from social events/thanksgiving, instead of cooking for myself like normal). and before I really realized that these were all things that were Bad For My Brain I was just wandering around my house like "why do I feel like garbage?? I've literally been outside so much today my brain should be happy"
ANYWAY here's to me not remembering I have issues with unstructured living because my days have been so similar for the past 4ish years that I straight up Forgot that things being too different too fast makes me crazy ✌️
#rye.txt#I'll be fine lol#the sudden shift in my daily schedule and my generally unhealthy eating today were the big things that made me feel Bad#so now that I am actually cognizant of this I can take steps to mitigate it tomorrow#god. what the hell did I even eat#leftover soup. that was breakfast (very out of my ordinary). uhh. a lot of pie (grandma made a ton for thanksgiving).#a tangerine that miiight have been on the edge of going bad#(thought I should eat a fruit. fruit did not improve status)#reheated popcorn chicken? that was not a good decision I felt so gross after eating that#hrm. ok my issue is that I feel like I Need To Eat These Leftovers So They Don't Go Bad#otherwise i'll be Wasting Perfectly Good Food#BUT. I don't want to eat it and eating it makes me feel generally unfulfilled and kinda blehg#ough. why can't I be normallllll#I'm also not dealing with the whole 'zero human contact' very well tbh. which is weird because I'm a deeply introverted person#and usually spend my days avoiding people like the plague#but idk. it's been literal years since I've spent and extended period of time completely alone#I don't knowwww i don't know#I'm gonna invite some friends over tomorrow and get them to help me eat these dang pies#ALSO. ITS BEEN REALLY COLD TODAY. AND I HAD TO BREAK INTO MY NEIGHBORS' HOUSE#(was not breaking in; I was trying to take care of their dogs since they're out of town)#(but their door code AND their garage door code weren't working#and I didn't have a physical key to use#so I had to push my way in through a back door that'd been blocked by a pile of boxes taller than my head#and squirm into their garage in order to get inside and take care of the dogs)#(was a very stressful way to spend my early waking hours)#i ALSO had to drive to the AIRPORT this morning which SUCKED. had to drop off family#which like I'm happy to help but also airports suck so much ass I hate them#anyway. today was sort of shitty#but mostly I only have myself to blame#did not structure my day well enough

I've seen so many interesting and fun greek myth ships over the years both divine and mortal supported by text and just for fun, and yet I fear tonight, I will be throwing my hat into the ring as a propagator of niche greek myth ships because like, no seriously how is Aristaeus/Dionysus not already thing.
#ginger rambles#pursuing daybreak posting#my toxic trait is DEFINITELY the hoops I went through to justify this ship in my work LMFAO#“Oh Dionysus has a wealth of established lovers you could've used why give him Aristaeus” Buddy Friend Amigo Pal Pardner#have any of those lovers spent a considerable time teaching Dionysus the art of brewing only to lose to him#and have your long held position as the heavens' drinks guy be uprooted because Dionysus made balling wine using the techniques#you painstakingly taught him? Yeah I didn't think so#In general I think more people should think about Aristaeus because he is SUCH an interesting god#also he and Dionysus have the whole contentious birth and godhood thing going on which is nice#also despite both being rustics they occupy pretty different spaces meaning they can co-exist without it being a strict syncratic thing#I mean Aristaeus was identified with Dionysus and Apollo but like his identity apart from them is also pretty clear and defined#which is really really fun#these tags were supposed to be about Aristaeus/Dionysus but really I just want to spread Aristaeus propaganda#god he's SO COOL I wish more people talked about him#yeah I can talk about him but I've been thinking about and researching him for years I wanna hear other people's rad ass opinions!!#also in case it's not clear the ship is not a mythological thing - mythologically Aristaeus is Dionysus' uncle and sometimes#his foster father/one of his instructors in the rustic arts or the other way around in terms of teaching it varies#people: Aristaeus is the bee guy what else is there to say#me breathing heavily: well aCTUALLY --

So I just found out that Jason Aaron (aka the worst Namor writer in the long 80+ years history of the character) is writing Namor.
I'm doing fine (lying).
#namor#WHY ME.#WHY MUST THAT TRASH WRITER BE INFLICTED UPON ME#its an understatement to say that he's the worst writer bc if there was something worse to call him then thats what i would be saying#like in 80 + years namor's had some bad writing but never a writer like aaron who purposefully shits all over the character#lmao#lmao.#he didnt even know the MOST basic lore#he cant even open wiki for 5 seconds#he couldnt write a complicated character to save his life#spent years watching him tear down namor in stupid fucking avengers#but now he gets CREATIVE CONTROL OVER NAMOR AND ATLANTIS#marvel hates namor and this is proof#I've seen creators state online how they tried to get a pitch in for years#ive seen them say they would love to write namor#writers who actually KNOW the character#but nooooooo#we get#jason. fucking. aaron.#first marvel doesnt even give namor any spotlight after he was massively popular in BPWF and now they are putting him in the hands of a hac#I will be complaining#loudly#for a long time about this#jason aaron hate train

Ok I might as well just say it but I'm making a compilation of vaguely Christmas themed Off Book songs! Anyways I don't think the song making fun of libertarians is making it in the cut, but if anyone knows any Christmas songs/episodes that aren't the the PFT/Nicole Parker or Hanukkah that they want to send my way I would appreciate it!
#this is somehow the hardest comp i've ever made#sticking to a theme sucks especially when there are so few episodes to choose from#like ngl for some of these its hard to pick an actually holiday themed song that fits as a stand alone song#but i've already spent my weekend listening through these so i'm committed#maybe i should have just done something with the 12 days of christmas songs...#ah well maybe next year#off book podcast

VVV Music Live live reaction that I'm calling a recap | Day 2 | Part 2
Last part, let's wrap it up!
I wish I knew what they were all saying
Okay now this is what I’m talking about
Also this is the power I’ve been missing from Ritsu’s voice. I guess I haven’t been keeping up
Dramatic!!
NO WAAAAAAAAAYYYYY!!!! NO WAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYY!!!!!!!
UNREEEEEEAAAALLLLLL!!!!
She’s so happy to perform it
I’m loving her expressions, is this what it’s like when you can understand the lyrics
They matched the drama!!
"RIP" is right!!
"Synthesizer V"? "Vocaloid"?
I really like the shape her ponytails give her with this outfit
Oh boy
Wow
Rivaling IA
RIVALING IA
Omg???
He’s going wild!!
He can put his hand in his pocket? He threw his hat off a second ago!
Yeah, you Are “Frimomen”
Wow they put everything into that
He’s playing the crowd
They should let him be in Guilty Gear
*Head in my hands* every Vocaloid man has some competition
Oh my god
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I knew he was coming
Well that was the highlight
NOOOOOOO I KNEW THEY WERE GONNA DO THIS
YOU CAN’T MAKE MY MAN GO ON AFTER THAAAAAATT
My poor guy. I believe in him
They better have a performance together now
Gakupo you have to serve
It’s so funny how casually they talk after their songs
Let’s go sword (I saw this beforehand)
VVV didn’t let Gakupo and Frimomen perform together because they knew they’d be too powerful
I like how they pushed his model’s expressions
Vocalooooiiiid
Her V6 ?
Her choreo on this one feels appropriately silly and happy for Gumi
Cute
Let’s go Unaaaa
This is who we had before Zundamon
They’re going to perform all of Kinoshita’s songs with all these concerts Una’s in
The void of space white noise……
Who is talking
And that’s day two!
VVV music live is always very long and packed with performances. I was looking forward to the choreography this year based on last year's and they didn't disappoint. I hope they can keep doing shows, they're always a lot of fun! That's all, thanks for reading!
#at this point there's like a day left in japan that the concert'll still be available to buy a ticket for/stream (as of dec 7th. 8pm EST)#it's called vvv music live 2024 and you can buy/watch by googling it and going to zan-live.com#it's like 5-6 hours so keep that in mind#they Did restream vvv music live 2023 this year so if you missed it and you see this late that is a possibility#aah I just hate when ppl miss stuff they wanted to see. but since I've been busy I had to stream it like the second to last day#I spent yesterday watching it and today documenting lol. I mean what would I rather take a hit to this or finals? finals will be okay.#I have dented the size of the screenshots folder#I looked back and it turns out I was making a post with several pics for each singer for 2023 so maybe I'll do that actually. later#thoughts#vocaloid#utau#synthesizer v#otomachi una#megpoid gumi#kamui gakupo#namine ritsu#tsuina-chan#frimomen

it's so ironic that chronically ill people are stereotyped as lazy, because absolutely no one out there wants to do things more than those of us who've spent years languishing in bed. i've been feeling a little better the past few months and the only damn thing i want to do is cook and clean and be productive. being productive feels like a fucking drug, no matter how exhausted and sore it leaves me. even when i have to rest, i'm lying in bed dreaming of what i can accomplish next. fuck but i am desperate to do things.
#personal#chronic illness#i've performed tasks three days in a row this week and it feels like cocaine#like what a rush i've actually DONE THINGS#small things compared to a healthy person but oh my god#i've been seriously ill for 15+ years and spent multiple of those years stuck in bed 23 hours a day#baking some muffins and running the dishwasher feels like winning a marathon#anyway. no one wants to work more than chronically fatigued people
