"mutuals can ask for discord" mutuals can haunt me after they die. mutuals can paint my immortal youth in a cursed portrait. mutuals can build a 8ft tall creature in my college dorm. mutuals can watch me wake up as a monstrous vermin. mutuals can feed me soup after i commit murder. mutuals can help me kill uncle claudius. mutuals can go out with me and my girlfriend from across the bay. mutuals can hunt the beast with me. do better

me: i'm gonna clean up my desk so my sketchbook doesn't fall every 3 minutes while i draw today!

[3 hours later.]

me: ...i have made a miscalculation...

cleaning up my desk is proving to be a much bigger task than i thought, so here's an old comic i can't believe i haven't posted yet:

and a bonus ending:

anyways, i'll see you all soon after i clean up my desk

I would not ask you to rot for me. I would not ask you to die. You would be like blackberries, like blood. I do not dream of scrubbing those days away, the telling red and raw. But when the night comes and the crickets mumble, I hope you hear my name- throw open the window and search the dark. I hope you sleep like a blink, your dream forgotten, but somehow, the morning aches.

I hope you forgive yourself. I will haunt you forever.

If you think about, in most other sports series the evolution of a "special attack" necessitates it getting harder, better, faster, stronger.

Meanwhile, Hinata and Kageyama's freak quick actually gets slower.

Its first incarnation relies on Hinata's raw speed and Kageyama's extreme accuracy. Hinata surrenders full control of the shot by closing his eyes and relying entirely on Kageyama to get the ball where it needs to go.

This lack of control later on spurs their first major fight as Hinata insists on opening his eyes. To accommodate this Kageyama has to modify his toss to include a "delay" while in the air in order to give Hinata the chance to aim his spike. This lets the two of them attack together.

Then, during the Nekoma match, Kageyama does something entirely different. He switches from their minus tempo to a third, the complete opposite of his usual high speed attacks.

It's also, technically speaking, a simple set. Keep in mind that Kageyama's specialty as a setter is his accuracy. Whenever other setters see him play they always comment on how difficult it is. In comparison, a four set is something anyone, even those who don't play volleyball, can do.

In essence, Kageyama is the one who's surrendering control this time. All he does is get the ball in the air and he has to trust Hinata to get it through.

Additionally, this is also what Kageyama uses the very first time he tosses to Hinata back in chapter 4 "The Greatest Teammate".

And guess what chapter this part of the Nekoma match is-- it's 314 "The Greatest Teammate: Part 2".

The two of them come back to where it all began, but this time more sure of themselves and in their partnership with each other.

I wish fic writers would get the same amount of support and admiration as fan artists do. (Long rant incoming and no I'm not even going to put it under a read more because it would be skipped over if it was.)

This might sound biased, coming from someone who posts fics and does not have a lick to talent when it comes to art, but just, please, read and try to understand.

It fucking sucks to see something that two different people have spent hours working on and only one gets the attention it rightly deserves because there's no stigma of it being "creepy" or "perverted" like fanfiction does and as publicly too.

I do understand that this will likely never change and that I'll have to get used to it as a fic writer, but, the fact that I'm having to 'get over it' because that's just how it is in fandom-spaces sucks. It shouldn't be like that, it's demoralising, and frankly off-putting. It makes me, and likely others who won't publicly say it, not want to post our written works.

Like there are times where people are literally spending hours and hours planning, drafting, proofreading and then correctly tagging a fic only for it to get no recognition or more critique than adoration. Whereas a fan artist can spend maybe a couple of hours on what they'll call a doodle and get all the praise. This isn't to bash any fan artists because goddamn I know y'all love what you do (and rightly so) but it feels like a stake to heart seeing two sides of the same coin being treated with completely different levels of respect.

Like I also understand that, with how people's attention spans are lessening, that not everyone is bothered or able to read something that's 5k+ (or even 1k+) words and I get it, but also? Give it a chance? You might, now stick with me here, actually like what you read. I know. Shocker.

And, then, if you do actually read something someone has kindly put out into the world for free, don't put comments in your bookmarks or the comments section stating how you "wish it was written different" or "from another character's pov" or when you decided to drop the fic. The author does not want to know when you dropped their fic. Just move the fuck on. If you want it a certain way so much, fucking write it yourself (or if the writer has commissions open, commission them like you would an artist). It is rude to leave comments like this and so incredibly disheartening for the writer of that fic to see such comments. If you have a critique about a fic, privately talk to your friends in the same fandom as you about it or if you don't have that put it in a private discord or something. Unless the author has explictly stated that they would like critiques, which is when you would comment some critiques if you had any, you do not need to leave unwarranted critiques. It is rude and unnecessary.

I could share screenshots of people who leave unwarranted critiques to fics in their comments section or bookmark comments, but because I'm a kind individual who frankly cannot be bothered to compile several tumblr posts of solely images, I'm not. But do know that we do see every comment under our works and saying "oh I didn't think you'd see it" is not a fucking excuse. People who make fan creations often look into their comments to see people's reactions, in hopes of having spread the joy or similar emotion they had when writing or drawing their piece.

And content creators who review fan art with praise and then immediately make fun of fic writers, I despise you. Genuinely. The fact that you think it's okay to uplift one part of your creative audience while not doing such with the other is disgusting. I do understand that there are boundaries that a person will have towards both forms of media but completely writing off one form of fan creation while entertaining the other is genuinely one of the most saddening things. It creates a further divide between these two sides of fan creation and reinforces people's mean attitudes towards fanfic writers simply because how they express their love for a piece of media is not easily viewed. There are, obviously creators who do acknowledge but stay away from fanfiction and I respect that; it's about actively going into those spaces to criticise and, in some cases, bully, those writers about something they're passionate about. If you're that insistent on leaving a negative comment on something, please, for the love of everything get a fucking life.

This is a long winded way of saying respect people who make fan content because, 99% of the time, they're doing it for free and for their own entertainment.

The Poisoning of Webb Hall - WIP Intro

Title: The Poisoning of Webb Hall

Genre: Sapphic gothic historical thriller with horror elements.

Comp Titles: Rebecca x Arachnophobia

Length: ~90-100k words (novel).

Status: First draft + major revisions.

Brief Synopsis:

Desperate for stability following the Blitz, fleeing from mistakes in her past, and hearing nothing of her brother serving on the frontlines of an increasingly violent war, young newlywed Aurora Finch must find out who - or what - is killing those close to her and why spiders have come to infest all of their corpses. As paranoia mounts after being named a suspect in the murders when her husband suddenly falls ill, and fearing that she is haunted by a literal shadow of death that has followed her all her life, she is driven to find security and companionship in the company of her cold, mysterious housekeeper, a woman who has watched Aurora from the dark corners of Webb Hall ever since her arrival to the estate as a bride.
