by the way people actually care. I'm so tired of the "nobody gives a shit about you" motivational phrase because it's simply bs. If that's right then why people who I see on the street start talking about me when they see me? Why they comment my looks when I walk past them? The whole mindset of "Look I'm here recording myself and people don't even stare at me because they are in their own mind" is true, but only partially true. Whether people stare or not depends on a lot of factors: the place, the country you're filming in, your looks, etc.. In some places for instance they would aggressively stare at you, in others they're just too busy.

People judge you. People who you don't even know look at you, have thoughts about you, they criticise you or complement you, sometimes they forget about you after you have walked away, other times they remember you forever. They use words recklessly, as if they didn't know that those are flying knifes. Those nicknames on your insta story list are watching you and judjing you as we speak. How do I know? Because I do the same. And you know what? Let them. Let them cover you in their shit. Let them talk about you, or worse gossip about you. Let them feel superior than you. Let them hate you.

Once you let them you will actually stop caring. Who cares if everyone is judging me anyway? No matter what I do, those eyes will still be on me. I can't control it nor prevent it. I will always be hated by someone. There's always gonna be someone who'll comment on my looks and on my weird attitude. There's always gonna be someone who will try to obstacle my freedom by saying mean stuff about me, trying to stop me from expressing myself and trying to make me become like them. Trying to let me stop being cringe and wanting me to close myself to the world and waste my time judging others who have the guts to be cringe.

Y'know, I used to have an insta blog that was extremely awkward and cringe. Yeah I remember people saying mean things about me, even the friends of my friends would ask them how could they be friends with such a weirdo. Now I deleted that blog, made a private account and occasionally post stuff that is generally considered "normal". I became just like them and I lost my freedom. And all of this because I started to care. I lost my uniqueness.

not the misscommunication with miyo thinking kiyoka is putting his work over her and kiyoka solving the crisis so no one dies and miyo won't feel guilty if he puts her first

People will say all manner of things; but anything will be better than that you should go on as you have done.

Hi!!

I am absolutely in love with your hcs, and your blog in general is so amazing! Don't even get started on your fics, they make me go AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA (in a good way, obviously)

Just wanted to ask, are there any tails & shadow hcs you especially like? I love them so much but it's quite hard to find content of those two, there's not much of it.

That's it! I hope you have a great day :]

-💛

heyy!!

first off, i’m glad you enjoy my stuff so much!!

second, i do have quite a few shadow&tails hcs !! :]

shadow will use kid, fox or miles when referring to tails

shadow scruffs him a LOT. he doesn’t have time to argue abt why he’s better than sonic

their friendship actually started with shadow asking tails to repair the dark rider, because he was the only one he tolerated enough to touch his bike

before they fist proper conversation, shadow dreaded being around tails bc he thought he was gonna be a normal kid (annoying, no regard for personal space, asks dumb questions, etc.)

when he realized tails was, in fact, not like other kids, he decided he was actually fine with the kid hanging around

TAILS REMINDS SHADOW OF MARIA !!

they info dump abt their plane/motorcycle to each other

non binary&aroace buddies !! :]

they vent to each other abt the dumb shit sonic does (they love him i promise)

(you can see that as sonadow, idrc but i don’t personally ship it)

tails upgraded one of shadow’s guns and suddenly got adopted idk bro

they’re space nerdsss they vibe w/ planets n shitt :]

they both really like heavy metal&classical music, they like to just sit a listen to their favorite songs while next to each other

they’re both just cats tbh. Only like 1 or 2 people, prefer to spend time alone, shit like that

shadow actively gives feedback when tails goes on one of his tech rants

shadow taught him how to do his eyeliner (turning his lil bro emo fr)

that’s everything off the top of my head !! ^^

They don't talk, because Callum had only agreed to let her stay if they didn't, and, well, this is more than Rayla thought she'd get. She'd left him, after all. Had torn his heart out with a letter, and on his birthday, no less. She'd been so convinced that he would hate her, so to be greeted without being yelled at was a pleasant surprise, and to be given the grace to stay the night is better still.

High Mage suits him. Two years is a long time but Rayla remembers the way he'd tripped over the title Prince those early days in the castle. It didn't suit him, he'd said. Felt like a title he was given rather than one he earned—which was true, actually. Ez, at least, is King because of his birthright. Callum was only a prince because his mother married King Harrow. He's still a prince, she supposes, but High Mage is something he's earned as a result of his hard work, his talent, his ingenuity. High Mage means he can be of service to his brother beyond just being on the council by default.

The office is nice too. He'd stalled her in here, and she'd let him in a bid to find an excuse not to go through with her mission. It's full of books and scrolls and ancient dusty tomes—all the dorky stuff she'd known he loved in their youth that she's pleased to see he still loves now. And pinned above his desk are his sketches of the Moon Nexus, his mother, and—

Rayla feels her lips twitch. All this time, and he'd kept his sketches of her.

"I considered throwing them out."

Rayla's eyes snap away from them, and she turns to find that he's followed her gaze and frowning grumpily at the page above his desk.

Her heart sinks. Of course he did. He was (and is still) angry. But...

She purses her lips, daring to hope. "But you didn't."

Callum huffs. "No," he mutters. "I didn't."
