Your artstyle is so free and expressive! I love it!

Ah! I'm so sorry I was late to respond, I was tired and out cold for a little while— I did make a quick doodle though!

I appreciate that! I try to make it as expressive as I can be!! Your comment is exactly the ones I like!

[let-them-fight]

dear rwby fans,

[yuriyuruandyuraart]

HGHHSFFHGF WAIT you wanna see that anon?? omg!!! i haven't had anyone ask me about them since bee waaa yes I do actually!!! they're pretty old (from when I was drawing w/ a mouse xd) but here goes!

no wips of nightmare yet but i could draw them if you guys want *shrugs* I really like how her design came out :D

[sleepinglionhearts]

Seeing your drawings pop up on my dash gives me such life tbh

Thank you!! Messages like this give me so much life tbh!!!

Here, have some more drawings from my Silly Fantasy Story Idea:

Ah, but anyway, thank u for sending me a nice message! I appreciate it!

[skeletalheartattack]

i love your art style so much, it's rad as hell. how long have you been drawing? :o

you mean the goofy little sketches i do from time to time? if so, that's really kind of you to say!!! that said, i wouldn't necessarily say they're the peak of my drawing abilities though, since i just draw with a mouse.

i use to draw a lot when i was growing up, though after getting Gmod for the first time, and subsequently SFM, i moved over into those programs to make my art, and kinda stopped drawing from that point.

i don't normally draw a whole lot these days, but when it comes to how i draw the stuff above, really i just find the messiness of using a mouse to draw really goofy, that and it's kinda nice to draw stuff without it needing to be perfect. it's just silly lines.

but regardless, thank you for the kind words, im glad you like my silly stuff

Is there a particular reason why you ship Samarie and Oliva?

Anon you have no idea how long I've wanted to ramble on this crackship ❤️

Ok so it started as a joke between me and my friends where we were talking about Olivia doing blunt rotation and who from the termina cast should be invited for it, i said Samarie and one of them added like "for once her anxiety lessens" and i was like huh fun.

And i thought, hey with Samarie needing to be saved and brought back to the train on morning day 1 and Olivia (if she isn't the mc) not being able to leave the train area until day 2 that makes day 1 evening the prime time for them to meet because they're both in there and i doubt there's many others to talk with when the majority has left to explore the town. Which then made me realize that in this scenario Samarie gets to develop a real connection with someone that doesn't start with mind reading and stalking from her part but instead with a conversation, like a normal relationship.

This isn't to say that Samarie wouldn't mind read Olivia or become clingy, nah this is Samarie, she would absolutely still do that. Tho perhaps (emphasis on perhaps) to a lesser extent or at least trying to go about it differently? Since she saw how her ways of trying to show Marina that she cared seemed to have the opposite effect i like to think that when seing Olivia's toughts on her sister Samarie would try to stop herself from assuming that she hates her like how she assumed Marina hated her father and wanted him dead from using mind read on her.

There's also the fact that amongst the character interaction you can have after you've been tied up killing someone Olivia's is arguably the nicest one of them and she even seems conflicted about deeming the player character a monster or considering them beyond redemption after what they did, which in turn makes me think she could act in a similar manner to Samarie.

Is this accurate to canon? Most likely not, if i recal correctly Samarie tends to be less open to anyone who isn't Marina. But this is my beloved weirdgirl x weirdgirl ship and i like to imagine Samarie not ruining her relationship with a girl before it even starts

Sorry to correct you but. Samosa is an indian dish not Kenyan

Hello anon! LOL okay I never expected to get into Samosa Discourse on my Star Trek blog but I happen to love food and history and the history of food so here we go😂

You are correct that samosas are not native to Kenya- and yes, India is by far the country most associated with samosas in the popular imagination (for good reason, samosas are pretty much omnipresent throughout India!) But while samosas are not originally from Kenya, that doesn't mean (imo at least) that they cannot be counted as part of Kenyan cuisine. (Which I didn't even necessarily do in that post, but I understand your position so I'll elaborate on those terms!)

Kenya is a multi-ethic country made up of several African peoples and migrant communities, including Kenyan Asians. Now, the history of South Asians living in/trading with East Africa goes back centuries, but there was also this huge (and deeply colonial) boom in the Asian population during the late 1800s-early 1900s when the British sent tens of thousands of indentured Indian labourers to Kenya to build the Uganda railway. (There is a LOT more history I could get into re the British East Africa Protectorate and the complicated social dynamics between African & Asian communities at the time, but that's not really relevant to samosas so I'll spare you.)

Anyway, modern day Kenya still has a considerable South Asian population, and as such (again not getting into the more complicated social dynamics here), Kenyan cuisine has a lot of Indian (and Arab) influences. But beyond that- Swahili culture(s) and cuisine(s) evolved over centuries of interaction between the various (predominantly Bantu) peoples of East Africa and traders from West, Central & South Asia (who brought in- among other things- their own spices), so cultural intermingling has always been a staple of the East African coast (which is geographically SO close to Asia!) If you were to walk around some of the bigger, more Asian diaspora-heavy cities of Kenya, like Mombasa or Nairobi, you'd find plenty of chicken/fish-based coconut curries & stews that strongly resemble Indian ones- as well as rice-based dishes like pilau & biriyani, rotis, chapatis, bhajias (called 'bajjis' in certain parts of India), kheemas, kebabs- and yes, samosas. Or sambusas, as they're often called in Kenya.

And what's more- the samosa (originally 'samsa' iirc) likely originated in Central Asia in the first place! It still goes by other names in West Asia and North Africa too; as do several other dishes-in-common. In fact, kuku paka (a dish I mentioned in the post that prompted this ask) is a Kenyan chicken curry with distinct Indian & Arabic influences. So if samosas can qualify as Indian cuisine (which, they undoubtedly do), imo they can qualify as a part of Kenyan cuisine too! Anyway I'm truly sorry I let this ask get SO far away from me lmao, I guess I've always felt a bit alienated by this growing tendency in Asian & African communities to sort of rigidly and unquestioningly (even proudly) uphold colonial divides when our cultures are actually so sprawling and ancient? Like sure, we are not monoliths, and it is important that people learn that- but also, so many political borders across both continents didn't even exist as they are today even a hundred years ago. It's so cool how much there is in common! Food, like so many other aspects of culture, is often migratory and full of varied influences, and that's just so deeply human and beautiful and fascinating to me

I think you are totally capable of writing extremely dark fics, and I think a lot of people would like it as long as you put the proper warnings in it, which you already do. I’d love to see what your brain can conjure up haha! 😈

Hehe maybe one day I'll finish and post one! I always try to make sure I tag appropriately as well as give more detailed content warnings in the author's note at the beginning of the fic - but alas, after my last experience with darker material I still worry that I am inadvertently going to offend someone.

Thank you so much for your support and faith in me! I hope that one day I can deliver 😈

❤️Ally

gurrrrl

it’s my first time writing youuu

because i didnt have an acc on this site for so long

anywaysss

your writing is impeccable

i love reading books, and if you sold these stories as books i would buy them (even if they were free on tumblr)

Also in one of your arabic retellings was a quote “iftah ya simsim”, which I edited to my phone’s wallpaper

so everytime i look at my phone, i will be reminded of your beautiful writing 💪

Have a nice day ✊ and take your time

also the Jeongin story makes me rethink to reading that again and again and again (bc it’s SO GOOD)

hello, hello! welcome to tumblr, anon! 👀✨

thank you so much for this lovely ask! I’m honestly truly so touched to know you enjoy my writing 🩷🩷 also having iftah ya simsim on your background is so cute and clever cus it’s like opening the phone = entering the cave of treasures GSDHFJSD

What do you mean when you refer to some of your characters as prequel?

HI OK SO my story (that still has no name, sorry, I know that kinda makes it confusing when I talk about it) is split up into 2 distinctive parts: the Main Story and the Prequel. The main story follows a trio of kids (renée, deliah, and matiás) as they travel across the continent and make allies and over throw the government and defeat the big evil yadda yadda it's a k-12 teen fantasy story yknow the drill lmao. The Prequel, however, follows mainly leon and kana, two mentor figures to the trio, and how they came to act the way they do and know the things they do, it's main function is to provide exposition and further background that the trio really have no business ever knowing. Another major element is that the 2 parts have very different tones. The underlying theme of the main story will always be Hope. To have hope and search for love and friendship and keep going when things seem utterly bleak. But for the prequel, it's a tragedy. There is no happy ending, and you know that from the start. You meet characters that feel important, but you have never seen before, characters that you know but can't recognize anymore. The main story starts with the world completely broken, and the prequel shows you how it got to that point
