#So maybe I'm just worn out

[amethystina]

hey I don't want to bother you 💗 but I read the last question and your answer on WHtD, I also read it since day 1 and I read fics for more 10 years now, your fic is one the best I ever read and I real a loooot. it's so well written and good. The psychological aspect is amazing. The slow burn too. It's my comfort fic atm. So take your time, protect your mental health but don't let anyone make you doubt yourself! Take care 💗

Thank you so much for saying so 💜 I'm incredibly humbled that there are people who have stuck with the fic for so long. And I almost want to apologise for how long it has turned out because I genuinely didn't think it would be when I started.

That's not to say that I regret that it's so long, it just feels like I've done some accidental false advertising or something because I didn't adequately warn people at the beginning x'D

Thank you so much for the lovely compliments! I do put a lot of effort into the psychological aspects and the exploration of not only Ga On's development but all the other characters as well. Which I admit is a bit of a handful some days. But, again, no regrets tbh.

Especially considering how much comfort I'm apparently able to offer with my writing. And that thought is, in the end, what will probably make me overcome my current doubts. Not because of obligation or anything like that, but because it genuinely makes me so, so happy to know that I can offer people so much joy. It's a lovely feeling.

So thank you so much for taking the time to tell me this and for your continued support. It means a lot to me 💜

you say machete has to be closeted then why's he always wearing them little heels

Maybe he thinks he's a tiny bit nicer looking in them.

I love all the little details in In Stars and Time so much

(Just as a note, I am currently in (the beginning? of) act 3)

The way that after a few loops the excited "It's my allies!" turns into a less enthusiastic "It's my allies." (And I think it used to be "it's my friends!" but I'm not entirely sure)

The first time Siffrin knocks into the counter and gets embarrassed, and then another (the next?) time it's frustrated, and then playful, and then frustrated again but this time refusing to show it.

The little remarks that become "..." in later loops

I'm pretty sure the descriptions of the deaths got a little more graphic? I think when he slipped on the banana peel it said that he tripped or that he fell. In a later loop it said something about cracking their head open on a rock or something.

Their wish for victory became a wish for rest

It's just so interesting to me. For some reason, this game almost makes me feel like I'm reading a book. But also not really? I think it's because of how the details are laid out. My favorite stories to read have almost always been the ones that I can pick apart, and this game is very much like that.

hey hey hey!! it's been a while since i updated my pinned post, so i'm making a lil mains and exclusives call!

liking this post tells me that you would like to be mains, prioritizing interactions with each other and implying a level of comfortability between us -- basically, neither of us need to be nervous about sending memes, asking to ship, and other such things! not that any of my mutuals need to worry about any of this, but mains especially so. if you currently listed as a main/affiliate on my pinned, you don't need to like this post! you're stuck with me already <3

you do not have to speak to me regularly to be a main! i'm pretty sporadically here atm anyway. i only ask that we've written together before and kinda have an idea of our muses' dynamic ( doesn't need to be fully developed!! ), or we can take a moment to discuss potential dynamics if we've never written anything that stuck and go from there!

if you would like to be exclusives, pls comment for which characters! i'll play these by ear a little, but i'll pretty much write with one or two versions of a canon character per muse. there may be some cases in which i'm so attached to someone's portrayal that i may write with only their portrayal no matter the muse on my end, but i'll tell y'all if that happens.

to be clear, i'll exclusively write with partner a's t.engen against my k.aigaku, so i won't write with any other t.engen against k.aigaku. however, i'll write partner b's t.engen against hyouka.

just grumbling about the tumblr posting experience.

I've been back on tumblr for a few years now and I'm still an annoyed and flailing mess when it comes to actually using the editor and making my vid or fic posts. there's always something that goes wrong and then I either have too many notes on it to want to make a new post or I can't figure out what the fuck I can do to make it look right and spend a stupid amount of time trying to edit to make sure everything is working. nevermind I hate figuring out how to format things here. for instance: I started drafting up my Fringilla vid, dropped my Youtube embed there and discovered it had a thumbnail of Francesca. So I made my Fringilla screencap and uploaded it to YouTube. the vidpost looks fine on desktop with Fringilla showing up on the preview image. but nooo on mobile it still shows Francesca in the preview. At least it does on my mobile. is it Francesca for everyone else on the mobile app? it's just a dumb thing to be annoyed about. but annoys me enough to actually make a post it. also I can't seem to remember to make proper titles on my tumblr posts before actually hitting post. run back to edit in but now all the reblogs say 'watching streaming on ao3' lmao, whyyyy. what a dumb thing to be irritated by. pfft. and I still have no idea if YouTube embeds fail to make posts show up in the tags. but I get the impression people might be more likely to watch an embed than clicking over to AO3 or wherever. I'm not a gif-maker and I don't think gifs of my vids have the same kind of impact without the music. so I dunno what to do to make things look prettier. I LOVE finishing things, I love people getting to see my fanworks. but my god I just hate posting and crossposting so goddamn much. Sometimes I have a streamlined process for my dreamwidth/twitter feeds but the bulk of my peeps there are not witcher folks anyway so that's not a crossposting priority for my witcher goodies. anyway. I made a Fringilla vid to escape my depressive woes. I love fringilla. you can check out my fringilla vid with alllllll my feelings for her right here.

I’ve been staring at these (and a third triple line up that I literally only have the poses for) for like a few months so have some WIPs of Nik in fancy wear and my phantom rogue Lucian’s general get up (kindofsorta I’m playing with ideas still)

I keep waffling on Nik’s outfit because I want it to be thinner and more flowing, but can’t get it in that nice mid ground of feminine but not straight up a dress, ya feel?

it's a very natural thing for me to just?? make sure my muses' abilities are never overpowered bc i'm worried that it's stepping on canon's toes otherwise and hmm :/ i'm just wondering if there's really a point to giving tsugumi a cap to her cursed energy and a binding vow to work against it. the binding vow only allows her to go beyond her regular threshold for fifteen minutes, and i don't see much good in it just bc she'd have to burn a ton of cursed energy for it to be worth it. considering the nature of her cursed technique, maybe she could burn that much if she did some massive beam of energy? but honestly i feel like this whole thing was me trying to make her acceptably strong.

but maybe i want tsugumi to be a huge pool of cursed energy who people get a lil concerned about. maybe i want people to be uncomfortable bc she's got more energy today than yesterday, and she already had a lot. maybe i want people to worry about her despite her polite mask bc tbh?? maybe they should
