Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Term Papers
In simple terms artificial intelligence (AI) is the science of making computer programs that can think like humans. Generative AI is a type of artificial intelligence technology that can produce various types of content, including text, imagery, audio, and synthetic data. When computer engineers create software that mimics human intelligence, problem solving, and content creation there should be…

"you taste fucking disgusting."
gojo satoru gags as he vigorously washes his mouth with listerine, the way he swishes and swashes the liquid is aggressive, and so is his method of disposing it.
"mmm, okay." absentminded, you lean on the door frame, taking a glance or two at your phone as your boyfriend leans over the sink. "i hope you realize that it wasn't meant to taste good— sunscreen. it's not a food, love. it's in the name, since it screens the sun's uv rays. you know? i'd say it's pretty self explanatory."
with a final cough and spit, satoru pants from the mint lingering on his gustatory senses, haunting his taste buds. "how was i supposed to know that?"
"what sunscreen is?"
"no, the fact that you were wearing it."
you barely manage to swallow the giggle attempting to claw out of your throat. "i hope you realize i wear it pretty much everyday when i go out."
he protests. "you should've told me."
"you shouldn't've kissed my cheek that hard then. it makes your skin all shiny and stuff too" you shrug, displaying indifference whilst fighting the urge to burst into laughter right then and there. "now we're late to lunch with shouko and the others."
"fuck lunch i need to get mint outta my mouth."
you respond with another shrug. "it is kinda your fault."
satoru narrows his eyes, petty and childish. "but you were busy calling shouko." you were gushing on a call with her, excited to see each other after so long due to the time consuming nature of college. seated at the front porch and slipping on your shoes, satoru innocently kissed you; opting to plant a long smooch on your cheek to avoid interrupting your conversation—unknowingly consuming some of your sunscreen.
the laugh you'd been holding onto for so long escapes. "dumbass."
"i had to kiss you somehow." your boyfriend pouts, a last minute resort to winning the immature quarrel (which was clearly, in your favour).
"awww, poor you. the after taste must suck." satoru grins victoriously, enjoying the prospect of being the winner of the banter, satisfied with his strategy.
it certainly didn't work.
"boo hoo, next time don't eat my sun screen." you punctuate your reply with a flick to his forehead, one he couldn't predict at all. "must've tasted horrible but that's your problem. was it really that hard to wait for shouko and i to be done?"
he replies as though it was instinctive and without thought, "yeah."
"you need to learn patience, baby."
satoru scoffs. "and you need to learn how not to be mean."
as he glowers as if he were a stubborn five year old, you kiss his pouted lips. "better?" now your phone was reminding you that a very perplexed ieiri shouko was pondering on your whereabouts. "now you've ruined lunch."
he wraps his arms around you. "we'll be fine, just tell shouko we're a bit late."
"but you already ate lunch. sunscreen with a side of my moisturizer. what's next? my face wash?"
"so mean..." he murmurs under his breath, though quick to shut up when you compensate your teasing with another kiss.

I wanna know about the DND au! (More specifically I wanna know if you've got Soap as the bard that would fuck anything that walks) But also I wanna know about everything else tooo!
lemme give you a breakdown of the party we have for this campaign
johnny is most definitely a tielfing bard (it’s been his build since secondary, and he hates change). definitely fucks the most townspeople everywhere he goes, including the members of his own party (kyle says no, simon says yes). always getting the group into some kind of trouble, mainly because he can’t keep his mouth shut. he also has the most experience out of the group, so the session consists of him getting up and down often, standing over one of the other guys and helping them with their character sheet as they go through the campaign.
price is a barbarian orc because he likes being the biggest and strongest in the party. literally goes into a rage in every single conflict they get into. meticulously plans out battle strategies and barks out orders to the boys before their turns (“aye—move a couple spaces to the left, simon. you’ll avoid that goblin’s eldritch blast over here” or “let me move in on ‘em first—i’ve got advantage, right?”) like price needs the most help but also gets the most into the campaign.
simon is a dragonborn paladin because it gives him the ability to not only attack and deal damage to enemies, but he can also heal himself and his teammates. is constantly squabbling with the team about their hit points and whether they’re close to death or not (“johnny, for fuck’s sake—d’ya need the heal or not? i can ‘lways give it to kyle—s’what i fuckin’ thought. just ask next time”). he’s actually a really quick learner when it comes to this stuff, so after a couple sessions he’s shaking johnny off of his shoulder and telling him to “go sit ‘own—don’t need your help. i know how to add fuckin’ numbers together, johnny”
kyle is a rouge elf of some kind (whether drow or high or regular—i can’t decide tbh). also enjoys fucking literally everybody he can get his hands on because a) he gets laid and b) he steals everything they have on his way out the door. however slimy and smarmy his character is, he’s always willingly sacrificing himself for his team. would definitely play a chaotic neutral character for funsies.
(will i be making actual dnd character sheets for them? yes. should i be studying for my exam that’s in 2 weeks? also yes)

Writing Notes: Plagiarism
Most students know it’s not okay to copy and paste someone else’s writing into a document and pass it off as their own. However, there are times when students are trying to paraphrase or are quoting a source where things are less black and white, and the concept of plagiarism can become unclear.
In most of your college writing assignments, you’ll be asked to use information from outside sources. Therefore, it is essential you know how to avoid plagiarism and why writers should properly give credit to the authors of those sources.
What is Plagiarism?
The use of someone else’s ideas as your own.
If you take someone else’s ideas and use them in your paper without giving proper credit, you are plagiarizing.
Although, most of the time, plagiarism is unintentional, it is still each student’s responsibility to learn how to properly attribute material to the original author/s.
Citing Correctly
A common mistaken belief is that citations are only needed for direct quotes, but this is not the case.
Generally, you should provide a citation for any information that is not common knowledge or your own ideas.
Example: You wouldn’t need a citation to write that the sky is blue because that is common knowledge.
However, if you write that the sky is blue because blue light is reflected by particles in the atmosphere more than other colors, your reader may expect you to provide a citation.
Can’t I Just Paraphrase?
Another possible misconception regarding plagiarism is that paraphrasing means taking a sentence from a source, changing a couple words, and providing a citation.
However, paraphrasing is more than just changing a word or two.
Rather, it is taking another person’s ideas and putting them in your own unique words.
Still, any lengthy series of words taken verbatim from a source need to be placed in quotation marks.
A rule to keep in mind is when four or more consecutive, verbatim words are used from a source, place them in quotes.
Strategies for Avoiding Plagiarism
When in Doubt, Cite
Many students worry that too many citations makes it appear that they are relying too heavily on source material and not thinking for themselves.
While some assignments will require you to use more of your own words and ideas, if you are in doubt about whether to cite something, it is wise to go ahead and cite it.
This way, you do not have to worry about being accused of plagiarism if the sentence in question reads more similarly to an idea taken from one of your sources than to your own ideas.
Because plagiarism is considered a fairly serious offense in academia, it is better to be safe than sorry.
Take Notes
When conducting research, it’s a good idea to write down the bibliographic information for your sources in addition to what you plan to use from those sources.
Make sure you have, at the very least, the author’s name and title of the work to help you cite your source material later.
In addition, be sure to place appropriate quotation marks around material taken directly from your sources so you do not confuse it with your own thoughts.
Otherwise, you might forget where you got a particular piece of information and/or whether or not it is in your own words.
It can be anxiety-inducing to be nearing a deadline but unable to find the citation details for a source.
To avoid this stress, record bibliographic information as you research.
It is also helpful to think of this notetaking as a halfway point between initial research and writing the paper.
Breaking down your source material by putting the author’s argument and main points into your own words helps you to better understand the sources with which you are working.
Moreover, active notetaking is good practice for putting the author’s ideas into your own words.

ELINOR SOS
I am the student anon from a while ago who was concerned because my prof made an oblique comment about "knowing when people use AI on their assignments"
I often collaborate with a friend in the course on homework assignments (something that is encouraged so long as you name your collaborators when you turn in) and i found out recently that she DOES use chatgpt sometimes. we'll each work on papers separately and then compare ideas and make edits if either of us included something the other missed. i never copy her words but i'll incorporate her ideas if i feel they're useful.
this brings me to 3 questions:
1) does the prof know she uses AI, and does the prof by extension believe that i do, since i name her as a collaborator?
2) is there a way for me to kindly tell my friend i think this is ludicrous behavior and cut it the fuck out
3) is there a way for me to distance myself from my friend in the eyes of the prof without seeming like a total snitch or hardass or what have you
thanks in advance !!!!!!
prev anon:: I MISSPELLED YOUR NAME I AM SORRY elanor elanor elanor so sorry
LMAO you're fine, no worries!
Hmm, okay, so some of this is outside my wheelhouse as a lecturer the other side of the world - this is not to say I'm not going to share my opinions regardless, but just a reminder that I am not, for example, an authority on taking friends to task for using ChatGPT
Anyway the easiest (and most advisable) answer to all of this is to stop collaborating. Up until this point, you're fine, because you simply didn't know - if you get accused of anything you have plausible deniability, because you literally didn't know. It's worth pointing out, though, that you would probably already have been given a formal warning or taken to an academic misconduct board by now if you were suspected on past work - at least, that would be the case over here. We don't hang about if we have suspicions.
Whereas, from this point onwards, if you turn in a collaborated piece and she then gets accused of plagiarism, you are now in a position of having willingly collaborated with a known plagiarist, which opens you up to questions like "So you knew there was a chance that her inputs could have been Chat-generated and you used them in your own work anyway?" and that's a lot harder to defend against.
As to the rest of it, though:
No, probably not. She'd likely have been called on it by now, as would you.
Hmm. I think I personally would approach this with "I'm so sorry, my anxiety is through the roof and I just don't feel comfortable collaborating with you because you use ChatGPT. My brain is now irrationally terrified that it's somehow obvious to the professor and imploding from the pressure." And then if she wants to get into it further, you can discuss the issues with it. HOWEVER mileage can and will vary on that strategy - that's how I would phrase it to avoid her feeling judged, see, but depending on how good a friend she is and a whole bunch of other factors, you might prefer to go BITCH WHY DON'T YOU JUST MARRY THE FUCKING ROBOT IF YOU LOVE IT SO MUCH and block her number. Or, you know. Something along the scale.
Just stop collaborating. Nothing more needed.
The other thing I will say is that I think you're probably assuming more surveillance and oversight from your professor than actually exists. It IS obvious when you find a Chat-generated section, but I can't help but wonder if telling a class "We know that some of you are using it, btw. We won't say who but we can tell. So stop doing that." is actually a lie designed to scare compliance before it becomes a problem. Like. That feels like a lie to me. That feels like "Say it now and then they won't try it." Because if they actually knew, there would be formal proceedings, not oblique little warnings.
Anyway! I hope this is useful.

Toxic Affair
Pairing: Carlos Sainz x Reader
Warning: Smut
Last Story: Ferrari Heat
PLEASE DO NOT TAKE MY STORIES AND PLAGIARIZE THEM OR REPOST THEM! THANKS! ❤️__________________________
You are watching the Silverstone Grand Prix in the Ferrari garage as you cheer on your boyfriend, Charles Leclerc. You felt let down when they didn’t pit Charles for soft tires. You shook your head at the stupid strategy that they delt him. Ferrari has been making horrible strategy calls for the past few races and it has been making the team look like clowns.
Your ex, Carlos Sainz crosses the finish line first, winning his first Grand Prix. Even though you were pissed at Ferrari’s fuck ups, you were happy that somebody from the team has won. Even though you hate his fucking guts.
You and Carlos dated a couple of years ago, and it was all unicorns and rainbows until it wasn’t. You remember those nights turn into pure hell. Arguments would seem like the normal routine every night. Sleepless and lonely nights in your own house even though he was sleeping in the bed beside you. Some nights you slept in the guest bedroom because you couldn’t stand being in the same room as him.
Charles was the only one that was there for you when he saw that something was going on between you and Carlos. He tried to make you smile. He took you out to take your mind off the hurt that Carlos had caused. That friendship turned into something more. Now, you and Charles have been dating for almost a year.
Even though you and Charles’ relationship is great, part of your heart still belonged to Carlos and for that you hated him. You hated that he was now Charles’ teammate. You tried to avoid him as much as possible, but the Ferrari paddock is not that big. Carlos would stare at you and then you would stare back at him, rolling your eyes. You even would make-out with Charles in front of Carlos, to make him jealous. Carlos would just cross his arms and roll his eyes.
Some days you both would make sly remarks to each other. But one thing you have learned is that you are not going to let Carlos take you to a place to make you look like the crazy person in front of the people in the paddock.
But for Silverstone, you have decided to leave the past in the past and congratulate Carlos on his first win. After the paddock clears from the media press and fans, you make your way to Carlos’ room in the Ferrari motorhome. You take a deep breath before knocking on the door. Next thing you knew, you were standing in front of a shirtless Carlos in his room, his shorts riding very low on his waist, his v-line visible. You must admit, your hands were itching to touch his defined abs.
“Well look who decided to knock on my door. I’m surprised to see you standing here.” Carlos says while standing with his arms crossed in front of you.
“Don’t be an ass Carlos. I just came here to say congratulations on your win.” You said matching his stance by crossing your arms.
“I appreciate you being nice...for once. I can’t remember the last time you talked to me without venom in your voice.” Carlos says uncrossing his arms, walking over to grab his water bottle off his table, taking a sip.
“I should have never come here to congratulate you on your win. I should have remained the sour bitch that you turned me to be.”
“In my book, you have always been a bitch.” Carlos sits his water back on the table behind him. He turns back around to your hand slapping him across his face. Carlos grabbed your wrist and push you against the wall.
“Let fucking go of me! I fucking hate you! You screamed at him trying to free your wrist from his hands.
“If you hated me so much, you wouldn’t be here right now! I know you better than you know yourself!” Carlos said looking into your eyes, dropping your wrist from his hands. He took this chance of you and him being so close to lean in and kiss your lips. You wanted to push him away. It was the satisfaction of getting the drug that you have been missing.
You finally gained the strength to push him away. Carlos stands there wondering what your next move is going to be. This was the chance for you to walk out of the room. Your mind was swirling with thoughts. Your mind settled on one thing.
You push Carlos to where the back of his legs hit the end of the couch, making him sit down in front of you. Climbing on his lap, you kiss him roughly, your hands playing in his hair. You have missed the way his hair felt between your fingers. From lightly stroking it when watching television, to pulling it every night.
His hand moves up your shirt, feeling your bare skin under his touch. He takes your shirt off and kisses your stomach as you take off your bra and throw it somewhere in the room. Carlos moves his kisses up to your breast, taking a nipple in his mouth while he uses one of his hands to massage the other one. You lean your head back while stroking his hair.
You feel his cock getting hard under you. You grind against him, getting a moan erupting from his mouth.
You grab a fist full of his hair, pulling it to where he is looking up at you. You lean down to kiss him on his lips, slipping your tongue into your mouth, you both fighting for dominance. Carlos uses this time to slip his hand under your skirt to feel how wet you are. He plays with your clit, earning a moan that escaped from your mouth.
“For someone who hates me so much, you sure are wet for me babygirl. You missed me, hm? Carlos whispered in your ear. He slips two of his fingers inside you, pumping them in and out slowly. You lean your forehead against his, breathing heavy, holding on to his shoulders.
“Fuck Carlos. Your fingers feel so good inside me.” You whispered to him.
Carlos takes his fingers out of you and puts them up to his lips, licking your juices from his fingers.
“Mmm. You still taste so sweet baby. I have been missing the taste of you on my tongue.” Carlos says.
“I want to feel you inside me. Please fuck me.” You begged, grinding on him even more. You reached underneath you, pulling his cock out of his shorts. You stroke him in your hand before lifting up and sitting on his cock slowly. You both let out a breathy moan.
“Fuck babygirl. You are still so tight for me.” Carlos says between his clenched teeth. He places his hands on your hips helping you move up and down, setting the pace.
You grab onto his shoulders, digging your nails into his sweaty skin. You lean your head back with your eyes closed. The feeling of Carlos being inside you is something that you have truly missed. Yes, sex with Charles is good but sex with Carlos speaks to your soul. It feels as if everything is moving in slow motion. You never want this moment to end.
“Right there Carlos! You are going to make me cum.” You say in between moans.
“That’s right baby. Come on my cock.” Carlos says thrusting faster inside of you. He leans his head back, close to the edge.
“Fuck Carlos! I cumming” Fuuuuck!” You whispered, clenching around him. Your climax making your legs shake. The euphoria felt like pure bliss. Your world has been rocked and everything is spinning.
“Fuck baby! That’s it! Yes! I’m cumming babygirl. Carlos hugs you closer to him, taking one final deep thrust and cumming inside you. You feel him fill you up.
You both take a moment to catch your breath. You didn’t want to move or wanted this moment to end.
“Fuck I have missed you so much.” Carlos whispered in your ear. He pulls you away from him and kisses your lips. He lifts you up and sits you back on the couch to go get something to clean you up with. Once he cleans you up, he throws the towel in a basket beside his closet.
“I still hate you Carlos.” You say as you look at him and smile. You both smirked at each other.
“You wasn’t saying that when you were cumming on my di-…”Carlos says while handing you your shirt and bra.
“Yeah yeah! We will not be mentioning this to anybody. Do you understand me?” You say as you snatched your belongings from him, putting them on.
“It’s our little secret” He smiles at you.
You get up from his couch and walk over to the door of his room, sprucing yourself up. Before you leave, you wanted Carlos to know one thing.
“This is never happening again Sainz.” You say looking over your shoulder.
“Then why do I have a feeling that it will.” He says while getting off of the couch and and walking towards you, standing closely behind you.
“In you dreams hun”. You walked out of the room shutting the door behind you, knowing damn well you are not going to be able to resist the SMOOTH OPERATOR.

How do I avoid plagiarism during writing an literature review during research work?
Avoiding plagiarism in a literature review is essential to maintain academic integrity and to show respect for the original authors' ideas.
Here are some strategies to ensure your writing is original and properly sourced:
Understand the Source Material
Paraphrase Effectively
Use Quotations When Necessary
Cite Every Source of Information
Use a Citation Tool
Keep Track of Your Sources
Run a Plagiarism Check
Engage with the Content
Understand the Source Material:
Before writing, make sure you deeply understand the arguments, concepts, and findings in each source. This will make it easier to summarize and analyze in your own words, rather than copying verbatim.
Paraphrase Effectively:
Paraphrasing means expressing the author’s ideas in your own words. Change both the structure and language while preserving the meaning. Avoid relying too heavily on the original phrasing, as minor tweaks can still lead to accidental plagiarism.
Use Quotations When Necessary:
For key phrases, definitions, or unique expressions that are challenging to paraphrase, use direct quotes with quotation marks, followed by a proper citation. However, use quotes sparingly, as too many can disrupt the flow of your review.
Cite Every Source of Information:
Cite all the sources you reference, whether you’re directly quoting, paraphrasing, or summarizing. Consistently attribute ideas to their original authors, even if they are rephrased.
Use a Citation Tool:
Reference management tools like Zotero, Mendeley, or EndNote can help manage citations accurately. These tools also make it easy to format citations according to specific academic style guides (APA, MLA, etc.).
Keep Track of Your Sources:
When taking notes, include citation information with every piece of information. This helps avoid confusion about what is your own thought and what came from a source.
Run a Plagiarism Check:
After drafting, use a plagiarism detection tool to check for unintentional similarities. Tools like Turnitin, Grammarly, or even free options can identify areas that might need rephrasing or additional citation.
Engage with the Content:
Focus on synthesizing the material by identifying patterns, contrasts, and key themes across multiple sources. This higher-level analysis adds originality, as it demonstrates your interpretation of the research rather than simple descriptions.

Plagiarism checkers can verify the originality of cited content and help ensure compliance with ethical and legal standards. 3. Educate Content Creators: Train content creators on originality and proper use of plagiarism checkers for authentic content creation. Encourage them to prioritize original content creation and use plagiarism checkers as a proactive measure to maintain quality and integrity. 4. Stay Informed About Updates: Keep abreast of changes and updates in search engine algorithms. And guidelines related to duplicate content and plagiarism. Adjust your content creation and optimization strategies accordingly to remain compliant and competitive in the ever-evolving digital landscape.
Conclusion
In the digital age, where content is abundant and competition is fierce, maintaining originality is essential for SEO success. Plagiarism checkers play a crucial role in ensuring the uniqueness.

By incorporating plagiarism checks into their content creation processes and adhering to best practices.

PSA: Archive Of Our Own
For those that don’t know, I post fanfics on Archive Of Our Own (aka Ao3), and I’ve been crosposting fanfics between Ao3 and Fanfiction.net since 2018.
Recently, I discovered that not only is Archive of Our Own allowing AI-generated fics on the site, but Ao3′s own head of the legal department was in support of AI being trained on fanfics published on Archive of Our Own.
I also was not aware until recently that AI has already been used to skim the site back in December 2022, either. Even though Ao3 has stated that they’ll be trying to put measures in place to prevent AI scraping of our own fanfics on the site, I am not comfortable with them also allowing AI-generated fics on the site to begin with. That AI could’ve used anyone’s words or writing style to generate their own fiction, which is essentially plagiarism.
Effective immediately, I will be restricting all access to fanfics published on Archive Of Our Own to registered users only.
I really hate to do this, but this is the only way I can think of at least somewhat protecting the fics outside of taking down my fics on Archive Of Our Own closing down my Archive Of Our Own account to avoid data scraping. Any fics that were exclusively posted on Archive Of Our Own will be crossposted to Fanfiction.net during the next one and a half to two months. (Thankfully, those fics posted exclusively on Archive Of Our Own are mainly just the Escape The Night fanfics I posted years ago - all the rest are already crossposted to Fanfiction.net.)
Given that I’m still finishing up posting chapters my Super Smash Bros/The Last Story crossover fanfic at this time, I will still post the last two chapters on the site for the sake of finishing the fic. However, after that, I will no longer post any new fanfics on Archive Of Our Own starting in June 2023. All fanfics from June 2023 onwards will be exclusively posted on Fanfiction.net until further notice.
Of course, if a similar situation happens with Fanfiction.net, I will search for alternate platforms or strategies to share the fanfics - or, in the worst-case scenario, I’ll have to stop posting fanfics entirely.
Thank you for your patience surrounding this situation! I appreciate your support.
In the meantime, if you’d like to follow more news about my original works (fiction and poetry), and if you’ve enjoyed reading my writing (especially since I’m self-publishing a new book during Summer 2023), feel free to check out my newsletter and also my main site for more info. Thanks!

How to Maximize Organic Traffic for Business Websites?
In today's fiercely competitive online marketplace, securing online deals and driving traffic to your website is essential for business success. While some may suggest that organic traffic is easily attainable, the reality is quite different, especially in the intensely competitive digital landscape. As a business owner, one of the toughest challenges you'll face is attracting organic traffic to your website. However, investing time and effort into generating organic traffic is one of the most rewarding investments you can make.
While paid strategies like Google AdWords (PPC) and Twitter sponsored posts can provide immediate traffic boosts, they are not sustainable in the long run. In contrast, organic traffic offers a smarter and more sustainable way to drive traffic to your website, especially when coupled with efforts to acquire quality backlinks. Although it requires time and effort, the rewards of organic traffic far outweigh the investment.
The Importance of Organic Traffic
For business websites, driving traffic is crucial for maintaining competitiveness and visibility. Achieving top rankings in relevant search results is essential for attracting organic traffic. However, acquiring external links from related websites is challenging but essential for boosting your website's authority and search engine rankings.
Harnessing Smart Strategies for Organic Traffic Boost
Create High-Quality Content: Focus on producing top-notch content that provides genuine value to your audience. Quality content not only improves your SEO but also enhances your reputation and attracts loyal customers.
Target Long-Tail Keywords: Instead of competing for highly competitive short-tail keywords, target long-tail keywords that are specific to your business. These less competitive keywords can yield significant traffic gains.
Avoid Google Penalties: Stay away from black-hat SEO tactics that can result in Google penalties. Buying cheap links, using excessive anchor text, and publishing plagiarized or low-quality content can harm your SEO efforts.

The Fortune Teller:
The fortune teller (he has no name) appeared around halfway through Forbidden Scrollery, and never again, for a good reason.
He was once a human fortune teller living in the village. However, he began to realize that all the human villagers were nothing but cattle for the youkai of Gensokyo to leach the fear off of. He decided to become a youkai himself, and surpass his humanity. He accomplished this by writing all his fortune telling techniques in a book, without signing his name on it. He then killed himself. As a ghost, he bided his time to see if someone would try to take credit for his work so he could resurrect himself out of sheer rage. However, he also carefully controlled his emotions to avoid becoming a vengeful spirit. After all, manipulating people's emotions is an essential part of fortune telling!
As to how someone stealing his credit would allow him to resurrect: there was a belief in the Edo period that a little bit of the author's spirit is in every book they write, and when you read a book, their spirit reads you. And yes, if you plagiarize from a book, the author's ghost will come to haunt you.
Eventually, Kosuzu Motoori took the bait after she found this book in her store, and became a popular fortune teller using his strategies.
When she heard about Kosuzu's new business and the fortune teller's mysterious suicide, Reimu immediately rushed to Suzunan out of instinct, just in time to see the fortune teller appear in the flesh.
His resurrection as a youkai scared Kosuzu so much she fainted out of shock, and he ran away into the woods. Reimu took pursuit, and eventually caught up with him. He revealed his grand evil scheme... to live peacefully in the woods as a youkai. He expected Reimu to allow this, seeing as how she's allowed so many youkai to stay at her shrine, that "youkai shrine maiden" that she is. Reimu responds... by cutting him in half with her gohei! Lengthwise! She reveals that this is the fate of any human villager who turns into a youkai. The worst crime there is in Gensokyo, and the only one with no forgiveness. She then had the book burned to make sure he could never come back to life again.
For a guy who only appears in a single two-part arc before being killed off permanently, he's incredibly popular. Though actually dying in a series where nobody dies is probably a major part of that. He showcases Reimu's moral ambiguity very well, as well as adding some eerie potential as to what might happen if Kosuzu's reading of youma books one day turned her into a youkai. The other part being his unique, Nosferatu-esque design and being one of the few male characters with a notable role in the story.
May he rest in peace.

Week 12 (Connect CTS to your learning and professional journey)
Critical thinking has helped me by having the right discernment in decision making before executing tasks. I would like to collaborate with other artists and promote art and mental wellness as a whole. (Rainey) It would be an interesting experience to see something unique come into fruition.
I will self-validate so that I can move forward without feeling burnout. (Smith and Reid) I will manage my emotions so that I would have head-space to manage other people’s emotions. Empathy helps in managing myself and others at work, as I look from others’ point of view. As conflicts would be inevitable, I try to encourage mutual respect and to view situations objectively, while trying to sound confident by my choices. I will provide a common ground so as to get everyone to feel comfortable on the same page. (Mba)
I constantly try to improve myself holistically and the only way is to keep learning, embracing failures and welcome critique as I know I will grow exponentially that way. (Robinson) One great way to exercise a growth mindset is to go for piano masterclasses and design workshops/competitions on top of the school curriculum.
As I source for information, citations are necessary to avoid plagiarism. I will learn the proper way to cite others in my sources, cross-reference from various sources to check for authenticity and credibility. (Library Guides: FAQ) Documenting my work helps me in my learning and the need to backtrack whenever things don’t pan out. I communicate with others on my ideas clearly through my documentations.

4 Essential Strategies to Avoid Plagiarism in Your Writing
Plagiarism is a critical issue in academic and professional writing. Its consequences can be very severe, from damaged reputations to legal issues. Knowledge of how to avoid plagiarism is a basic aspect of creating original, credible work with respect for intellectual property. Here are four practical strategies to help you maintain integrity in your writing.
1. Cite Sources Properly
The most straightforward way to avoid plagiarism is to give credit where credit is due. As soon as you use ideas, quotes, or data from other sources, you will have to cite them correctly. This means both direct quotes and paraphrased content. Various citation styles have specific rules, such as APA, MLA, and Chicago. So be sure to use the right guidelines for your field or assignment.
2. Paraphrase and Summarize Carefully
You need to paraphrase or use a summary when you require to use material from a source, but direct quotation is inappropriate. Do this by retelling it in your own words yet maintaining the author's sense. This is not always a word-by-word change as it is a try for full understanding and presentation in your voice. Source reference is always done in quotation marks, including a paraphrased one.
3. Use Quotations Correctly
Sometimes, you want to let the author of the material say it for you. When you quote directly, place the words in quotation marks and provide a citation. This serves the purpose of giving credit to the original author and informs your readers that these are not your words. You should use direct quotes very rarely and only when the exact wording is important.
4. Develop Your Own Analysis and Voice
Originality goes beyond plagiarism; it would be to add your angle. The more you add, the more you are likely to be creating work that says your voice and viewpoint. Using this will not only eliminate plagiarism for you but also make your argument stronger for your writing.
Intention and care aside, proper citation of the sources, careful paraphrasing, correct use of quotation marks, and the development of your voice will build original, credible work; it is not plagiarism preventing these issues but the techniques themselves that will enhance quality.
