#aaahhh I’ve missed you!!

[pearl-blue-musings]

Aaaaaaa I love wine night 😭💖 (i fear i may have missed a couple in the past) but i’m here now! and with angsty alhaitham thots 🫣😈 how do you think a really bad argument would go with alhaitham and reader? like i’m just imagining so many scenario’s rn and i just wanna dissect this man. i’m just interested in a hc you have of angry alhaitham/how he would handle a fight with his s/o. ya know?

anyway i hope you’re having a wonderful night, mootie. i’ve missed you lots 💖

Z!!!!!! I have missed you so so so much!!! 💜💜💜 I’m always down for an angsty alhaitham you know how much I love him 🙈

Kaveh hates having to be in the middle of arguments, so he’s finally not going to be. At first he wasn’t sure why you would date someone like Alhaitham but he’s not one to judge. Until tonight that is. He’s so tempted to leave his room but honestly his roommate had it coming.

“That scholar was absolutely flirting with you,” you almost scream. “How could you not tell?!”

Alhaitham rolls his eyes as he sits on the couch. “And like I’ve told you, there is nothing going on between us. Your insecurities are astounding.”

How dare he? Kaveh slaps his forehead at his roommates stupidity. “My insecurities?! You have got to be kidding me! Do you hear yourself? Says the person who got mad that Cyno asked for my expertise.”

“The general has had feelings for you for a long time,” Alhaitham responds, “everyone knows that. Why do you indulge him? Is it because he says those awful jokes? You have had such a terrible weakness for those.”

Kaveh can sense that you’ve rolled your eyes and start to pace. “And so what?! Everyone with eyes can see how attractive you are. You’ve had plenty of people confess to you but you were too stupid to realize it. You don’t hear what they say about me! That you should dump me, that I’m no good for the grand sage or grand scribe or whatever!”

“And why do you listen to them?” God, Kaveh wants to strangle his roommate. If he didn’t have a commission to finish up he’d be at your defense right now. “If they flirt with me then there’s nothing I can do. I can’t control them.”

“But you can at least reject their advances! Why can’t you see that? She kissed! Your! Cheek!”

“It was merely friendly.”

“A friendly kiss on the cheek?! Alhaitham do you hear yourself?! No one who is a friend should be kissing you like that!”

Kaveh is certain Alhaitham is about to say something incredibly stupid and hurtful. And unfortunately, he’s correct.

“Then should I not be giving you the same affection? You are my partner after all. I give or receive affection as it’s due.”

Kaveh actually slapped his face that time. With his ear pressed to the door, he can already hear you crying and haphazardly grabbing your things. “Your partner? Am I,” your voice breaks, “nothing more than a means to an end for you? Is this just another partnership to you? To achieve your goals?” By this point you’re openly sobbing and Kaveh wants nothing more than to hug you and slap his friend.

Alhaitham pauses to think. “I don’t think-“

“Fucking forget it,” you breathe out with exhaustion. “I’m out of here.”

“Sure, just walk away angry instead of talking about it like you always do.”

You push him then and make your way out of the house. The door slams quickly and that’s when Kaveh makes his move. “You’re a fucking idiot,” Kaveh sighs. “You basically said they’re not special to you and that you do this with everyone.”

Kaveh had never seen his roommate run so fast in his life, presumably to catch up to you and profusely apologize.

Elle’s Wine Night!!

The next day…

The sun shone through the thin curtains of your Melbourne hotel room, a steak of light shining directly onto your face. A soft groan falls from your lips as your sleep is disrupted by the ball of fire in the sky that seemed to be insistent on waking you up. The realisation that you’ve slept in hits you like a freight train, scrambling out of bed, almost tripping over your feet as you just manage to reach the bathroom.

You’re frantically scouring your hotel room, looking for your other shoe when the door knocks. Relief washes over you as you find the shoe after endless minutes looking. Hopping over to the door, pulling your shoes on, you open it to your older brother, Logan Sargeant. He finds himself amused at the sight of you hopping back into your room to sit down and put the shoe on properly but he shrugs it off, making his way inside.

“You woke up late again?” He questions you, no longer surprised at your antics as a soft chuckle passes his lips. Before he’s aware of it, a pillow is being thrown at him, falling to the floor by his feet.

“For a formula one driver, you really should have better reflex’s Lo,” You tease as your brother as you place your foot back down on the floor, reaching for your bag as you stand up. “Ladies first.” Logan rolls his eyes at you but goes first anyway, making his way into the hotel hallway.

———————————————————————

As the car pulled up at the track, a sense of fear washed over you. What if people don’t want me back? What if it was better off without me? You’re pulled out of your own head by the feeling of a hand on your shoulder. It’s Logan.

“You’re gonna be fine,” A soft smile graces his lips and that’s all you need for reassurance as the car pulls to a stop. Climbing out, you take a deep breath as your feet hit the floor. There’s no more hiding now.

You manage to match the walking rhythm of your brother, your feet falling into the familiar action of one foot in front of the other. The screams from fans as you enter is almost deafening. You hadn’t heard anyone scream your name in so long and suddenly you’re hearing so many scream it all at once. It’s almost a comfort; they’re happy to see me.

You walk with your brother and take a few pictures with some of the excited faces in the crowd though you leave the bulk of fan duty with Logan and his fellow drivers. It’s their day after all.

Walking through the paddock you realise just how much you missed the days you used to spend at race tracks. You’d spent your whole life around race tracks, watching Logan and cheering him on as he worked his way up. There was no one more proud of him than you were when he got signed by Williams. Though due to your rapidly growing career, you were lucky to make it to a race at all, though you never missed one. Always watching him from wherever you were in the world, whatever the time. The familiar hustle and bustle of the paddock brought a warm smile to your face, that only growing when you spot a certain driver in papaya.

“Oscar Jack Piastri,” Your voice in sync with your steps as you walk up behind him. Oscar spins around rather fast at the sound of his name, a large smile plastering on his face at the sight of you. His arms wrap around you, pulling you into a warm hug. You hug him back before pulling away, and taking a small step back, a smile on your face.

You’d missed him. Growing up with Logan on race tracks meant growing up with Oscar as well. From the moment the two boys met they were inseparable, you very quickly catching on. The three of you became your own little trio, always causing mischief at every turn. Your little trio never ended, no matter how busy any of you were and no matter how long you went without speaking to each other, you always made your way back to each other.

This moment is the first time you’ve seen Oscar in 6 months. You’d spoken over the phone, briefly, but it had been awhile since you’d seen his face up close. As Oscar spoke, it was almost reassuring to notice most things really hadn’t changed at all.

You, Logan and Oscar. The three musketeers. Finally back together.

The joyful moment between you two is abruptly ended at the sound of Oscar’s name being shouted in your direction, a thick British accent filling your ears. Following the sound, your eyes land on a second papaya-clad man. You make him out to be Oscar’s teammate as he got closer. Lando Norris. He comes to a stop at Oscar’s side.

“We’re needed apparently,” the man says to Oscar, not registering the presence of either you nor your brother yet. You’d heard of Lando Norris before, of course you had. Oscar had spoke of him and you’d seen him whenever you watched the race on tv but you’d never seen him in person before.

“Hello to you too Lando,” Oscar says with a soft chuckle escaping his lips. Lando shakes his head, his eyes falling on Logan though still not noticing me.

“Fraternising with the enemy I see,” Lando’s voice is a very soft one, playful. You can’t help the way the corners of your lips turn upwards as he continues teasing your brother. A small giggle leaves your mouth as the teasing persists and that’s when Lando notices you’re there for the first time.

Lando’s eyes fall on you when he hears a giggle come from beside Logan. His eyebrows that are slightly furrowed with confusion relax as his eyes meet yours. The kindness, the warmth in them is unmistakable, just looking into them feels like a warm hug. His eyes scan over the rest of your face, taking in all your features. You’re beautiful. You’re…familiar but somehow he can’t seem to figure it out.

“Y/n Sargeant,” You introduce yourself to Lando, offering up a handshake. Then it clicks where he’s seen you before, besides the obvious. Of course he’s seen you on social media, on the news, he’s heard you on the radio, you’re kind of hard to miss, after all. No but where he recognises you from, with that specific smile on your face is a picture Oscar showed him last year, the picture held a still of you, Oscar and Logan laughing at something, none of you can remember what exactly, when you were 17. That’s what Lando remembers you from.

“Lando Norris,” He accepts the handshake, his maybe holding onto yours for just a moment too long. As he walked away with Oscar, he wondered when the next he’d see you would be.

All you’d said was your name but it didn’t matter. He was intrigued, he wanted to know more. Know you.

The Show

Our Story Masterlist Summary: Harry, YN and Grace go to Niall’s show in Manchester.

Based on this request.

Like Niall had surprised them at Harry’s show, YN had suggested that they do the same to him. So sneakily YN has managed to organise everything with the help of Amelia.

With Grace safely secure as she sat in her carrier on Harry’s chest, they walked hand in hand through the corridors of the arena, Anne and Darren behind, keeping them company.

“Do you think he’ll be surprised?”. Harry asked as he lead his family towards the backstage area.

“I bloody hope so…I’ve planned this for months”. YN reached across to place Grace’s dummy back in.

As they rounded the corner Amelia was quick to spot them. Greeting them both with a hug, saying how nice it was to them again.

“Hello little cutie…are you going to have a little dance tonight?”. Amelia made a fuss of the smaller Styles who only gave a gummy smile back. “You are just too cute!”.

“Amelia? Babe?”. Niall’s voice called, startling them. Before they knew it the main man appeared, shock written all over his face as he noticed who Amelia was talking to.

“Surprise!”. YN shouted, impressed with how surprised Niall looked. His mouth opening and closing as he processed it.

Niall opened his arms ready to give them all a cuddle. “You sly little fucker!”. YN laughed into Niall’s shoulder as she had text him a little white lie earlier on about how she was in London.

“You should have known we would never miss your show”. YN squeezed him tight as she hadn’t seen him in a while due to his tour.

“Hello darling!”. Niall’s attention was soon taken by Grace. “Have you come to see me be silly on stage?”.

“Aaahhh!”. Grace cooed, bringing her fist up to her mouth to attempt to chew on.

“Have you got a request? Or are you just like your Mummy and anything One Direction will keep you happy?”. Niall teased.

YN playfully rolled her eyes, but secretly she hoped he hadn’t changed his setlist.

“Didn’t realise you brought the whole family Harry”. Niall noticed Anne further up the hallway. “Anne!”.

Harry glanced at his Mum behind him. “She’s on Grandma duty!”.

“Ah Niall…my love…so good to see you”. She wrapped her motherly arms around the Irish lad.

“Thank you for coming!”. Niall was taken back at his much love he was surrounded with. “They’ve got you on Granny duty have they?”.

“Wouldn’t have it any other way”. Anne smiled at her Granddaughter who was looking around at all the new faces that walked by.

“Niall…you’re on in ten”. A voice interrupted them, telling them all that they needed to move to their seats.

“Have fun out there…so proud of you man!”. Harry gave Niall a brotherly hug, both of them trying not to squish Grace in the process.

Niall quickly gave Anne a quickly hug and thanked her again for coming to the show.

But in typical YN style, she managed to hear Niall’s infectious laugh as she pulled away from his cuddle. “I’m only here for the One Direction songs”.

Niall knew YN was teasing, it was what he loved the most about her was her cheeky and mischievous personality. “Tomlinson…I’ll sing them just for you tonight”. He used her old nickname as he called back down the hallway.

---

As the Styles family settled into their seats in the box, fans were quick to notice their attendance at Niall’s show. Taking photos and videoing them wanting to share with fans around the world that Harry was supporting Niall.

Grace was cuddled into Anne’s arms as her tired eyes grew heavy and her ears covered with her defenders. The lights dimming and the sound of the Nice To Meet You began.

“I like the way you talk, I like the things you wear…I want your number tattooed on my arm in ink, I swear…'Cause when the morning comes…I know you won't be there…Every time I turn around, you disappear”.

With Grace fully asleep and in the safe hands of Anne, YN and Harry enjoyed the start if the show. Singing along and both wearing proud smiles as they watched Niall appear on stage.

“Nice to meet ya…Where ya been?…Let me treat ya…To a drink…Nice to meet ya”.

YN sang along loudly to the lyrics, feeling her inner fangirl appear.

---

YN knew Niall’s song lyrics word for word, so the minute she heard the beginning she would get excited. Harry was honest, he’d a few but each one was like hearing them for the first time.

“Tell me what you want, because you know I want it too…Let's skip all the small talk and go straight up to your room…I've been thinking what I'd do when I'm alone with you…Just say nothing, small talk only gets in the way”.

YN sang the lyrics into Harry’s ear, which only caused him to pull her closer to him, his hands now resting on her waist.

“Just remember my Mum is behind us…I know how carried away you get”. Harry spoke into her ear as the loud arena sang along.

YN only glanced up at him with a cheeky smirk. “No small talk”.

---

“Yeah, she loves when everybody's watching…She knows the way her body moves…She loves…the way they all crawl back when she says…She loves nobody else but you”.

YN danced along to Niall signing, swaying her hips as she playfully sang the lyrics to Harry, who nodded his head to the catchy beat.

---

“Hold tight, get ready for the ride”.

YN and Harry both waited for the beat to drop, something they do in the privacy of their own home.

“If everythin' was easy, nothing ever broke…If everythin' was simple, how would we know?…How to fix your tears, how to fake a show…How to paint a smile, yeah, how would we know?…How good we have it though?”.

The husband and wife, held eachother as they belted out the lyrics, knowing the meaning behind them.

---

“Oh, my, my, you just took me by surprise…And I can't believe my eyes…Oh, I must be seeing blind…Oh, no I, you're too good to be all mine…Now I'm looking in your eyes…Oh, I must be seeing blind”.

Harry couldn’t hide his blushed face as YN loudly sang the words to him, but fans were quick to capture him placing a kiss to her lips.

---

Black and White was definitely one of the couples favourites, and that was down the lyrics and purpose of the song. There would never be another love for either of them, and they had promised each other they would love the other for the rest of their life.

“Yeah, I see us in black and white…Crystal clear on a starlit night…In all your gorgeous colors…I promise that I'll love you for the rest of my life…See you standin' in your dress…Swear in front of all our friends…There'll never be another…I promise that I'll love you for the rest of my life”.

With Harry’s arm wrapped around YN’s shoulder and hers around his waist, they bounced along singing as loud as they could, feeling the lyrics deep.

---

“Baby, you could start a cult, you see…Anywhere you go, I'll be…You are so much more than beautiful to me”.

YN now stood in front of Harry, his arms now wrapped around her body as they swayed gently to Niall’s acoustic voice and the sound of the guitar strumming.

“Oh, I'll follow you 'til there's no tomorrow…I'll follow you 'til there's no tomorrow…I'll follow you 'til there's no tomorrow…I'll follow you”.

---

“God only knows where this could go…and even if our love starts to grow outta control…And you and me go up in flames…Heaven won't be the same”.

Joining in with the fans, YN and Harry waved their arms back and forth in rhythm before clapping along to the chorus.

---

As Niall was singing If You Leave Me, Grace began to stir and as much as she loved her Grandma Anne, cuddles with her Mummy was just what she wanted.

“If you leave me…Oh, I think that I just might lose it completely, yeah…If you leave me…Hope you know that you're sentencing me to a life on my knees…Don't know who I would be”.

Still wearing her ear defenders, Grace looked at the stage from her mother’s arms. The bright lights catching her attention as YN danced gently with Grace in her arms.

---

Grace was now watching the show from Harry’s arms, cooing and awwing at the change of lights, and smiling at her Daddy as he danced silly with her.

“Who's that shadow holding me hostage?”.

The all too familiar song began, and Harry had never seen YN’s eyes light up so much. “You woke up just in time Gracie”. Harry placed a loving kiss to her cheek. “Daddy wrote this one!”.

“I've been here for days…Who's this whisper telling me that I'm never gonna get away?…I know they'll be coming to find me soon…But I fear I'm getting used to being held by you”.

The inner 1D fan girl was rushing out of YN as she and Anne sang the lyrics proudly, dancing together.

“Oh, baby, look what you've done to me…Oh, baby, look what you've done now…Oh, baby, I'll never leave you if you keep holding me this way…Oh-oh-oh-oh”.

Harry couldn’t help but notice the full circle moment. He had gone from writing this song in a studio one day, to performing it on stage with his four brothers, to singing it on his own at his own shows, to dancing and singing it with his wife and daughter.

And in the words of Niall Horan “No, it doesn't get, doesn't get better than this!”.

Aaahhh I’m back!! My work schedule is back to normal so hopefully I can get to putting some of these thoughts out into the world! I’ve missed you guys! 🥲

Just imagine Garreth in green…those eyes 💕

~

(Garreth hanging out at the Slytherin table)

Sebastian: You know, you’re here a lot. We should make you an honorary green

Garreth: Ha, no thanks, Sallow. No offence but there is literally nothing about me that says Slytherin.

Sebastian: You frequently steal supplies…

MC: from teachers as well

Sebastian: how very cunning of you

Ominis: you’re determination with new brews is admirable…and very green

MC: You have ridiculous ambitions ranging from stupid potions to wanting to own your own potion shop slash pub

Ominis: You’re resourcefulness is unparalleled. I’ve heard you scavenge around for ingredients. Finding them on walks, around the grounds and breaking into shops.

Garreth: How do you know about that? Did you tell him?!

Ominis: No, I just have my ways.

Garreth: (opens mouth to argue before closing it, head in his hands) Oh my god…should I have been in Slytherin?

Sebastian: (banging on the table) ONE OF US! ONE OF US

Masterlist

[sxber-r]

Aaahhh!! It’s been so long since I’ve updated, I’m sorry! (I don’t know who I’m apologizing to) But I finished SoN a while ago but haven’t made anything, so here it is! If you haven’t read SoN, this is a warning!

SoN made me think. Seeing Percy so confused about who he was constantly had me on edge, especially because the reader (if having read the previous books) knew what he had gone through. I was just waiting to see his reaction when he finally got it back, and it was worth it. When he first turned down praetorship because he was loyal to Annabeth I was giggling and kicking my feet. The entire time, he just wanted to see his girlfriend again. When that one Amazonian warrior (I forgot her name, it was Kaylie or Kaize or something) asked him out and said he’d look good in an orange jumpsuit and a COLLAR I had to put the book down. Like, girl. WHAT? I was appalled, to say the least. Seeing Tyson and Mrs. O’Leary made me smile, I missed those big guys. The dream scene with Grover made me sad :( Percy thought he was a faun asking for change. 

Percy wasn’t the only character that had me on the edge of my seat. Frank was such an interesting character to read. He was a shy, big guy who was ridiculed for being a probatio. His reaction to Percy calling the cannibals Canadians made me giggle. Frank had struggled to accept being a son of Mars, which was hard for someone who thought it was horrible, especially because of his mom’s death. The scene with his grandmother in the house? SOBBING. When he gave Hazel the stick I was screaming. In all, his character development wasn’t rushed and it was gradual, creating an interesting character to read. He and Hazel’s relationship felt slightly rushed, but I think it’s just because I was so accustomed to the five-book slow burn that was Percabeth. The age gap did make me question it, but I wasn’t too weirded out. 13 and 16 aren’t too bad in my opinion, especially because She was dead for a few decades and they kinda match maturity levels(?). That is probably a risky opinion so please educate me if I sound like a creepy person.

Hazel was also a very well-written character. Learning about how she had come back from the dead was very interesting as well. I had already know, due to spoilers, but it was interesting to hear the full story on her death. It was heartbreaking to hear about her mother, and Gaea, and just everything that happened in Alaska. Her powers are interesting as well, and I like how the powers a demigod gets depends on if they were roman or Greek. How Nico can summond skeletons because Hades is the god of the Underworld, but Hazel has earth and jewel powers, contributing to the wealth side of Pluto. It reminds me of how poetic the planet Pluto is. Pluto, the god, wasn't considered an Olympian despite being one of the big three, just like how Pluto wasn't considered a planet. Overall, I love Hazel. Her character is amazing, and I love that Nico got a sister back, especially with the scene on the roof where he accidentally calls her Bianca.

Beautiful book, amazing writing, 10/10. I need to start reading Mark of Athena, which I do have, but i need to do it quick because the book was due the Sixth! Since school has started up I have to do thirty minutes of reading per night and would love to update you guys every time about the chapters. Love you guys, have a good night!

The Wayhaven Chronicles—Update 02/Dec/2022

Edit, edits, rewrites, and testing! It's been a full week :D

But when I did my first playthrough, I suddenly realised just how much is in Book Three! I was choosing options and realising what scenes I would miss this time around and how much left there will be to see, and that was only doing one love interest! 

Like, I was a bit overwhelmed and freaked out about how we're gonna test it all, but I was also so immensely proud of myself. This is exactly the type of game I've always wanted to make! And I did it! It has been seriously hard work and so draining, but just playing through what I achieved is...aaahhh! I just so hope you guys will love it as much as I do! There's some scenes I am so eager to see how people react too!! :D

I'm calmer about the testing now though too after speaking with Nai (she's always good at calming me down!). It's just a question of organisation, and we have that in place, so it's all gonna be good. She's going to start testing through for me too, so can't wait to get her opinion on the game!

Yet, even during all of the intensity with editing and testing...I did come up with what I think will be the opening line for Book Four, hehe! (I promised myself I wouldn't go anywhere near Book Four until truly after my long break...but I couldn't help myself!)

Next week, the beta testing starts, and it'll be social media days! I'm actually really looking forward to that! I've got the Christmas/Winter Patreon Specials to write as well as something super special for Christmas day! 

Oh guys, it's an exciting time ahead! A culmination of years worth of work and love!! 

Hope you all have the most fantastic weekend! We'll be offline as usual, so I'll update you all again next Friday! <3

WIP Wednesday

It's Wednesday, my dudes! AAAHHH!

Thank you so much for all the tags over the last couple of weeks. I have been writing, but not sharing. Brain has been a little bit of a weird space to be in recently, feeling a little overwhelmed, a little bit fizzy (that makes no sense but it's the best way I have to describe it), and just feel like I'm edging towards burnout. I'm trying to avoid that, as I still have so much of Trails to edit, but we'll see how October/November goes.

NaNoWriMo is right around the corner, and with that my focus will be shifting back to my original novel 'A Survivor's Revenge', so I'm hoping to get all of November's Trails chapters edited before the month starts.

Anyway, onto the post! Thank you for the recent tags @artsyunderstudy @larkral @shrekgogurt @orange-peony @aroace-genderfluid-sheep @martsonmars @cutestkilla @you-remind-me-of-the-babe @rimeswithpurple @nightimedreamersworld @ileadacharmedlife

For this week's snippet, here's something from a later chapter, Agatha POV.

“It’s Goats business,” Niamh grumbles, as though she doesn’t want to be discussing this with me. Like I’m a total outsider.  While I may not be an actual member of Simon and Penny’s gang, I happen to know more than I probably should. “Go on then,” I sigh, getting my grooming kit out to brush down my horse. I’ve just started running a thick bristled brush down his back when Niamh says, “They’re missing. Simon, Penny, Baz. We don’t know where they are.” I stop with my brush halfway down the horse’s back and stare at the stable wall. Missing? “How the hell do you lose Simon Snow?” I ask incredulously, turning to face her. “That’s like losing an alarm clock that won’t stop going off. It’s impossible.” “Well, sorry to disappoint, but your boyfriend is currently missing, and none of us know where he could be.” “He’s not my—” “Sorry, your fiancé,” she corrects herself. “He’s not my—” I stop myself from shouting the rest of my sentence and replace the brush in my grooming kit. I’ll come back and brush my horse down once I’ve dealt with Niamh.

Hey, how are you doing? I hope you’re alright. 💕 I’ve been reading your status updates on Constellations and the Epilogue, and I just wanted to let you know that I think you’re amazing. Your writing is incredible and I love it. Your stories are so well thought out and the characters are ✨on point✨, and the plot is complex and detailed and aaahhh! It has me hooked! 🤩

And I understand how it hurts when you put so much effort and love into a story, only to post it and not see others be anywhere near as excited or invested as you are. I know how discouraging it can be. And it may be a little silly, but I do want to apologize for not commenting lately—life took some difficult turns for me healthwise around the end of last year and I haven’t been able to catch up! I’m still on Chapter 4 of Constellations! 😭 BUT Chapter 5 is open on my phone, and I am READY to read it as soon as I have the time (and mental energy, but that’s a whole ‘nother issue 😩). Don’t worry that your writing isn’t enough, or be discouraged if some readers don’t catch hints while others are figuring it all out seemingly too easily. Everybody reads and comprehends stuff differently, and it’s not a sign that your writing is bad if they don’t catch it! Honestly, I’m pretty bad at catching hints the first time I read a story unless they’re pretty darn obvious. I don’t usually notice subtle hints until the second, or third, or even seventh read-through, haha! (on the bright side, rereading stories and rewatching TV shows is always fun!) 😅

I guess what I really wanted to say is… don’t give up hope. Don’t lose your love and enthusiasm for your works, or feel like they aren’t worth writing because others don’t seem interested in them. At the heart of it all… at the end of the day… write because you love to. Because it makes you happy. And know that it doesn’t have to be “perfect”—the main goal should be that you enjoy it. That’s something I’m trying to teach myself, too. 💕

Thank you for taking the time to write this message and send it. I appreciate you're very kind words 💕I'm doing okay, I just had to take a step back for a bit from socials and stuff. I'm gonna keep that up for a while.

Please don't apologize for not commenting or taking your time reading. Your health always comes first, and I'm sorry if I came off as childish or needy, that wasn't my intention. Two things just happened that set me off and the timing of it was incredibly poor 😓

Please take your time reading; none of it is going anywhere, and don't feel obligated to leave comments either. i'm realizing that, even if chapters are short or long, finding the time to finish things is difficult, and everyone lives different lives. And I'm sorry about all the spoilers on this blog, I'll tag that better from now on.

But I really do think I got confused or disjointed in my perceptions; everyone here knows so much because i've been asked questions and given answers and people have interacted, so people following me here have more context than the average ao3 user. But I've kinda been expecting everyone to be on the same page, which will never be true.

I'm also the same way where it takes me a while to pick up on hints. I actually changed my writing style to prevent this. I got tired of reading books in college where you had to dive into every little thing. the hints and clues weren't obvious to me. I decided then that, when I wrote, I wanted things to be bold, obvious, but beautiful. I didn't want to make readers feel like they're missing something. I wanted them to trust that every answer, every clue would be answered in time. I made that promise to myself a decade ago, and being reminded of how different people interpret things just...made me remember.

I take writing really seriously, probably too seriously, but I've been doing it for so long and I love doing it. I want to be good at it. When it feels like I've gone back on that promise to myself, I get frustrated. I think of ways I could've fixed things. But I also remember that those books and those writing styles just weren't for me. I wasn't the target audience.

Sorry to go off on a tangent, but I wanted to explain why I got upset. I still love Constellations and I'm posting it on ao3 out of convenience, really. It's easier to reference and search there in one "Entire Work" than to have 5 documents open. The fact that others can see and read and have fun is a bonus. But I'm committed to telling this story, and I'm gonna finish with a bang.

Thank you, I won't forget why I'm doing this and that my thoughts/feelings come first! 😤I hope your health concerns are taken care of soon. Take it easy, and thanks again! 💕

i’m ngl this is also what i thought until i started taking low dose T earlier this year. i never really had any identifiable physical things i couldn’t appreciate at least sometimes it was just viscerally uncomfortable to be perceived by others and think about how they saw me (in terms of gender). when i tried to picture my ideal future self (physically or personality wise) there was just a blank space because i couldn’t conceive of continuing to live like i had been. it was just kind of a …. banal dissociative torture that i was used to. i’ve been on like the lowest dose possible for 6 months and there haven’t even been that many physical changes but i already feel like i have a future in this body, something ive been missing for my entire life. i’m really really sorry if this is like weird or pushy or tmi, but ive been following you for a while and i feel like there are a lot of things you talk about that remind me of myself and others i know pre realization. one of the big things that cracked my egg was a friend sitting me down and being like “you talk about fucking these gay boys so much you know you can ….. be the gay boy right. it kind of seems like you want to be the gay boy” and i was like woah …. yeah i kind of want to be the gay boy. again im so so so sorry if this comes across poorly and this may just be me projecting parasocially onto my idea of you and things might be kind of hectic in your life rn and a lot of people aren’t able to do basic healthcare much less hrt but. you can be the gay boy. if you really want to. i believe in you. and also you have a future and i believe in you regardless. ok sorry tumblr user eviligo i just appreciate your presence on this site and wanted to reach out and say my transgender gospel.

ok sorry for taking SO long to get to this i wanted to give you a proper response to such a thoughtful message!!

you’re not being pushy at all :) i definitely resonate with a lot of feelings you had prior to going on t, especially the thing about picturing your ideal self and seeing a blank space although for me it’s kind of like… a blurry vague silhouette. i will say that growing up in bandom i often went between “do i want to fuck this band guy, or do i want to look like him” which is probably the closest to dysmorphia i’ve ever felt, at least in the sense that i could identify and put words to it. it took me a really long time to become comfortable with my femininity because i was definitely a “tomboy” and a lot of my interests were male-dominated. then when i got older i had the revelation that femininity =/= womanhood and i don’t need to be traditionally feminine to be a woman which like, duh, but it was still really freeing! and then i got even older and started seeing all these amazing ways people express themselves and i’m like. aaahhh i wish i had the confidence and the body and the money to do that. and “you can be the gay boy” definitely strikes a chord too in a way i’ve never really thought about honestly.

all of this is to say that as i am right now i have no intention of going on t but i do have a lot to think about! and i have time to think about it, which i need to remember. it’s not out of the realm of possibility. and you are so so so sweet and kind and thank you for that last part oh my god ;_; i’m just a bizarre woman (woman adjacent?) making my way in the world i don’t deserve such nice thingsssss

20 Questions for Fic Writers

I was tagged by @samioli ! Thank you!

1. How many works do you have on A03?

29

2. What's your total A03 word count?

82,735

3. What fandoms do you write for?

Ace Attorney babeeyyy

4. What are your top five fics by kudos?

The Sum of Two Halves

Looking Out for You

Just Like You Always Don’t

Persuade Me

Lined in Lace

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

Absolutely!! Most of the reason I write is because I have a concept/scene/theme I want to discuss with people, and fics are often a more efficacious means of expressing those ideas than traditional essays. I miss a few here and there but for any comment that’s more than a “thank you” I try my best to give a good response :’)

6. What's the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

blood runs cold — Phoenix rejects any meaning his friendship with Edgeworth could have had after his death. I’m not much for angst usually, but I do love writing ghost stories and horror, so I really enjoyed writing Edgeworth’s emotional presence as a ghost.

7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

probably The Sum of Two Halves — though it’s a bit open-ended wrt narumitsu, I do think Edgeworth being able to reconcile his personal and professional lives in a way that makes him comfortable is the happiest possible resolution for the story I wanted to tell there

8. Do you get hate on fics?

nothing that sticks in my mind from this fandom thankfully

9. Do you write smut?

it seems to be all I can write lately

10. Do you write crossovers?

I’ve never written an explicit crossover, but I have been stewing for a while on a fic where AA characters are essentially thrown into the plot of Community

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

not to my knowledge

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

nope

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

I have! in another fandom, as a birthday present for my now-roommate

14. What's your all-time favourite ship?

[suppresses the part of me that wants to say johnlock] narumitsu :)

15. What's the WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

either my aforementioned Community AU or a very sweet fic about narumitsu getting it on at the magshoe wedding

16. What are your writing strengths?

I’d say I do really well with poetic, ornamental language. anything flowery and figurative!

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

when I read things over, I think I tend to skimp out on dialogue… conversations tend to be short and to the point, rather than meandering around the end goal in a more realistic way

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?

I could! I have strong enough Spanish and German skills to get away with it, so perhaps

19. First fandom you wrote for?

………………dan and phil

20. Favourite fic you've ever written?

aaahhh this is hard! I really love the Blooming series, but I also am very obsessed with my current WIP ones and zeroes :’) both are very personal to me

by far MY ABSOLUTE FAV oneshot ive ever written, and it is all thanks to my love @cloverdaisies for requesting this 🥹🥹🥹 immediately when you sent in the prompts i knew, i had to deliver a criminal juyeon fic for you and im so so glad this was well-received too 😭🫶🏻 fear not folks, i will eventually write a pt2 for this 👀

Hii corynn!! <3

How are you these days? I'm finally almost finished with this semester, so now i can come back and read all the stuff i missed :')

ALSO! GREAT NEWS! Ateez is finally coming to my city 🥹🥹🥹 i never ever thought this was going to happen aaahhh!!! But since nct 127 came in january (and i saw them thank god 🙏) and aespa is coming too, it feels like the companies are finally starting to see the potential here hahshahdha

But yeah!! Pray for me so i can get tickets omg :') i already missed the aespa ones but im kinda glad i did since now i hope i can afford the ateez ones lmao 😭

hiii ash <33

congrats on almost being done for the semester!! i know how amazing that feels, and i hope the last little bit goes well. you got this!

i’ve been doing pretty well myself. my summer job is keeping me a lot more busy than i’d originally planned for the summer, so i haven’t been around here as much either. but i’ve been doing my best. although, life’s been pretty good lately to be honest, so i’m not upset about it :)

but OMG yay to ateez coming to your city?? that’s so exciting! i totally get the frustration of groups never coming anywhere near you. i’m from western canada, and it is just barren over here lmao. i had to fly across the country to see ateez in hamilton, which may not sound bad, but canada’s pretty big so it was still almost a five hour flight lmao. so worth it tho.

sorry you’ll have to miss aespa though! but who knows, maybe you’ll be able to find some cheap seats the day of! i’ve been super into them lately so i was fully prepared to buy tickets for hamilton again or even north-west states…but they’re not coming anywhere even remotely close lmao. i’m not prepared to drop a grand on flights, so i’ll have to miss it. oh well, i catch them next time hopefully :,)

but i’ll keep my fingers crossed for you with the ateez tickets🤞luv u and miss u 🫶🫶

helloooooo, leaving some boyfriends copying each other's style in your askbox 🥺💕💘💖💘💕💖

I don't recall seeing Olli wear something like that ever, maybe he was missing his crush so badly that he copied the cap-under-hoodie look??? 🥺

have a lovely week 💘💖💘💗💘💖

aaahhh!!! 🥰 they really do have the exact same style nowadays, it’s making me so soft 🥺💞

I’m not sure if you meant we haven’t seen Allu wear that because I’ve always associated that cap-under-hoodie style with Olli 🤧 but it doesn’t matter because they really are copying each other’s style anyway aaaaa!!! 💕💗

hope you have a lovely week as well 💖

[euphoricfilter]

Girlie be exploring the horrors and the depths of humanity like Shakespeare 😭😭😭

AAAHHH I'M SO EXCITED!!! THIS PROLOGUE WAS AMAZING 😭 Tae really is such a cutie and I'm so curious about Jungkook?! I was not around to read the original version so I know nothing 😩 but I am so in love 😩

OH thank you 🫂💕 i’m glad i made a prologue for the reboot. i think i’d considers it the first time round but just decided to make a fat old first chapter instead which probably wasn’t digestible at all

tae is literally the best throughout the series, seriously the mvp. i think jungkook starts of relatively tame… maybe

oh you didn’t miss much. the actual idea for the series is something i will forever love but my writing never did it justice, so i’m determined to give it all the love it deserves now that i’ve got a bigger brain and probably nicer writing 🕺 i also like giggle and kick my legs whenever i think about it, especially the ending so i’m determined to share it with everyone
