90 days isn’t enough.

These are the thoughts in my head as I watch you hunch over the table, putting together some new model kit you’d bought before you made your way here. You’d let yourself in with the key I gave you, walked right into my apartment like you did my heart so many years ago.

You glance up at me, eyes the color of sunrise meeting mine, and I inhale sharply. It’s odd because before, I’d never reacted in this way. I don’t really remember my breath stuttering nor my heart fluttering in our youth and yet everyday since you’ve been back, all I can think about is the way your breath had felt on my neck when we hugged for the first time in over a year.

You’d somehow grown taller. As if you needed to do that. And as if to prove my point, you break into a smile and stand, walking over to me and towering.

There’s a pinch in my neck as I tilt my head back to look up at you. I know you notice because I flinch just slightly and your smile twitches as if fighting to keep from widening.

“C’mon pipsqueak,” you call as you reach out. Your hand is warm around mine. Bigger. Always bigger. It’ll always be bigger because you’re older than me, you’ll remind me. For a moment I pause, glancing down at where your fingers are curled through mine.

“Pips,” you call again, a question in your tone and I smile. It feels like something blooms in my chest, a flower, my heart, affection? I’m not sure but seeing the look in your eyes has me on cloud 9. Since when had I yearned for your gaze to always be on me? Only be on me?

I see it in your face too. You feel the same things I do and you always say you’re better at pretending you don’t care but Caleb, deep down, I’ve always known of the affection you held for me. I’ve always known of my place in your heart.

“Caleb,” I call softly, watch the way affection blooms from your chest up to your face, turns your cheeks red at how gently I say your name.

“Thank you for coming home.”

is this something i should've included in my 2024 wrapped? probably. but i'm still doing it to close off the year! (´◡`)

incredibly grateful to have gotten so much love in the past three months. i'm not able to respond to everything, but trust that i see every comment— whether in the replies, reblogs, or in my inbox.

if anything, let this be a reminder to support your favorite writers/creators. in an algorithm that thrives on likes, reblogs with comments in the tags/replies/asks make a world of difference. if you liked someone's work, let them know.

here are some of your words that have stuck with me. 🫶

if i can love well, it's because i've been loved well. please let me repay all your kindness in 2025 and for however much longer that i can (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧ if you got this far: happy new year! i wish you clarity, courage, and compassion at every turn. xo

the day the earth stood still is the day i felt your presence leave it, and then every day after that.

[sir-fenris]

I yapped. Is it strange to be happy about that?

I actually managed to smile, laugh and have fun scrolling down a moot's blog without having to do breaks to close my eyes and breath in silence. I yapped in tags, and commented in tags quite a lot, and even wrote some stuff about my story as I got some new ideas.

Despite my chronic ilness acting up really badly today, mentally I was... as close to okay as I've been for a while.

Might be silly to be happy about that. But I am.

Today is…

Today didn’t even feel real

I remember being there shortly after the surprise announcement of the direct yesterday and joking about the potential for a new rhythm heaven game, saying things like “Manifesting a new rhythm heaven!!!! This is your LAST CHANCE NINTENDO >:)”

However, I have already accepted a long, long time ago that a new rhythm heaven will likely never come out. Many a time did young Elleon, at the peak of her rhythm heaven obsession, eagerly watch to see news of her favorite obscure little game series getting a new installment somehow, but equally have many directs come and gone without even a mention of it.

Although she still kept hope in her heart that one day, new content would release and she would have more to obsess over, slowly she started to be alright with it. Megamix seemed like the perfect send off to the series, being a compilation of (mostly) the best mini games. If final remix was to be seen as the final remix of the series as a whole, it would have been the perfect one, featuring the title themes of all the games that came before it (a detail that has, admittedly, made her cry before).

Though the series has relatively little to offer, the impact it made on her life is indescribable. The quirky minigames, cheerful songs, and whimsical characters were what kept her spirits up during a dark period in her life. No matter how bad things got, she always relied on watching her favorite minigames and remixes to cheer her up. It allowed her to develop her love for rhythm games and through that, she was able to meet many wonderful people. It revitalized her interest in creating things. It wasn’t a problem if the games were lacking any deep or complex characters, she was content with making up her own stories and interpretations of them. It was thrilling to take what little lore the games had and explore the implications of it. It was even more thrilling to share it with others.

All in all, to her, the four games were enough. They were enough to change her life’s trajectory and enough to sustain her obsession. This sentiment was felt even stronger as her fixation faded away and she became more of a casual fan. Not making as much content herself as before, but still enjoying the works the others have made.

And now cut to today, in the middle of a crowded table surrounded by friends. As soon as that familiar dialogue sound effect was heard, I screamed. I screamed not only because one of my favorite game series was getting a new game in over ten years, but also because it had just felt like the impossible just became possible. Would my excitement been even more powerful if this was 3 or 4 years ago? Definitely. However, even hours after the initial rush of excitement, my heart burns with such warm happiness I have not felt in a long while.

I remember a moment when little Elleon, after having finished a drawing of cosmic girl, started to smile and hug the paper tenderly to her chest. Although the drawing itself was quite amateurish and perhaps even juvenile, it was a drawing she made all by herself of a character from a game she adored so deeply. That was all that mattered to her in that moment. However, she suddenly stopped. She realized that one day, she might forget about how much she loved the series, only remembering it as a cringe memory. It may even come to a point that if a new game were to release, she wouldn’t even care in the slightest.

Little Elleon, I am happy to say that you are sorely mistaken.
