Also if you really don’t want to spam, you can queue your posts so they’ll appear on your blog/followers feeds spread out over the day/week/month
seeing a lot of "why would i reblog anything i don't have something to add" like
sir this is the user-circulated content site
#also like#i don't know if new blogs are aware of how many people you generally follow to build a feed#like my dash is populated with so many diff blogs/people that someone really has to do their best for me to notice a spree#and it all has to be the same subject#bc i won't notice at all if its just random things they like#i barely look at icons#after like 7 years on this site im following around 400/500 people#a lot of those are inactive#but still it gives me enough content on my blog to be able to scroll for a couple of hours every day#so like#i really won't notice if some person gets into a new niche#and worst case ill just unfollow??#who is using tumblr only for friends and mutuals anyway#99% of the people i follow won't notice if i unfollow them at all#and ive unfollowed friends before bc i wasn't into the thing they were#and we still chat/vibe in discords?#it isn't a huge deal like facebook or twitter might be#bc tumblr is for You#it isn't as much about showing and maintaining ur personal social circles#you can do that but i do really think its important to maintain that part of tumblr culture#not all social media has to be about socializing first and foremost#tumblr is more abt socializing through community rather than individual personal connections#again#there is also that#but it isn't its primary function i feel#editing to add that apparently i do know the blogs ive followed for a long time if they keep their icons#bc now i that im watching em they're all familiar#but still i don't think i ever got annoyed at someone for reblogging something outside of their original interests

proximity chat has done a lot for hermitcraft. it makes the server feel closer and chattier, that's for sure. but there's a special warmth in pre prox chat silent interactions on the server. something special in the little hello dances and block punch waves. the in game chat becomes a lifeline and it was a delight to watch during timelapses.
the vibe of pre prox chat quiet hermitcraft was very much we are apart from each other, but we are here together. the hermit you are watching is alone, but never lonely.
my favourite example of this kind of phenomenon is the interactions between Cleo and TFC during demise in season six. some context: Cleo was still working as a teacher, and TFC was living in a different timezone with shoddy internet. they could never hop into a discord call together, never be online together. and yet they played.
TFC started season six by vanishing underground to build a fallout vault (not a bunker, he was very adamant about that). He rarely surfaced, only occasionally sticking his head above ground to marvel in confusion and what the others had done (and break Sahara). When demise came around, he decided to play, donning iron armour and carrying on as usual, avoiding basic traps placed in his base.
this is where Cleo comes in. Cleo, being Cleo, has announced that demise is a game between hermit and hubris, and has promptly fled anywhere she's been known to frequent (bolt hole strategy). for a while they slip into TFC's walls, just as Joe hides in the statue of Hemitry.
Now TFC is working on a fall out bunker, and Cleo likes fall out, so she slips into the base and begins to add armour stands. With them are puzzles that match the game lore with an accuracy that delights TFC when he finds them. He solves her puzzles and they come back to continue the story in armour stand diorama.
They never speak to each other, just play when they are on, conversing in the hermitcraft love language of pranks. in this time, Cleo dies in demise (falling to the hubris of trusting Keralis and Bdubs). Dead human Cleo rises, ready to kill, and TFC is happily caught up in their game.
Cleo sets another trail in the story that the pair of them are telling with armour stands. It ends with a book on a lectern for TFC to read, writing the demise plotline into the fallout lore of his base.
The vaults were never meant to protect, after all. And TFC falls for it, plummeting into the lava below, inventory full of the things that could save him - fire resist, blocks, water bucket. And yet he sits in the lava and just laughs, tired of demise and happy to give Cleo the kill they've worked so hard for.
The interaction means so much to me. They are never on at the same time, and yet they are playing together. Not having prox chat means that the game is drawn out and it spans episodes, a compilation of hard work and friendship.
And all the while, TFC refers to Cleo as 'everyone's favourite zombie mistress of cthulu' and Cleo delights in building new offerings for her friend

Let's talk cover art!
Firstly, here is the first official look at the full jacket for my new book!
Camp Daze has had a really wandering path to publication, which I'll talk more about later, but back when I still didn't know what I wanted to do with it exactly, I got this crystal clear image of what I wanted the cover to look like. So I created that cover, just the front cover at the time, as more of a portfolio piece than anything. But even though it was meant to just be a portfolio piece, I loved it so damn much, and it stuck in my head hard. When I did finally decide to self publish the book, I knew I had to use this cover.
Usually, I go through a lot more iterations for my covers when it comes time to finally publish things, but this one has just stuck with me over the years as I tried to bring this novel out into the world. Back in 2023 some of you may remember I tested another cover featuring two of the main characters, and did some tumblr polls to see what people liked most, and the tent cover won by a LANDSLIDE each time. (That other cover, or the art from it anyway, will still be available other ways! Just not as THE cover for the book.)
I think the very stark, simplistic nature of the cover fits the themes of the book really well. It's do or die and all they've got is the resources in their camp--represented by the tent, the resources of the wilderness--represented by the mountains/forest, and the looming/hovering threat of a nuclear war that they don't actually know that much about. When it came time to create the full wraparound version of the cover, I added in a little archery target on the back cover because archery plays a major roll in their survival as well.
Colors wise, everything was built around the green tents. The tents are based off of the ones at my own childhood summer camp, and they play a big roll in how the camp manages to create better shelter for themselves. I think found a purple that worked well with the green because, well, they're in Colorado and "purple mountains majesty" and all that. Then it was just filling in other areas with colors that fit within the scheme. I kept everything a little more muted mostly because I just like more muted color schemes.
For the back cover I picked a few lines from the book that, I think, capture the overall vibe of the book which is "if we try, we MIGHT die, but if we DON'T try then we WILL die, so we may as well try."
And shoutout to @gallusrostromegalus for helping me write a new author bio while I was flailing around in the discord chat having a minor identity crisis, lol. The new bio kicks ass, even in this shortened version.
Something that is very important to me is to make sure cover artists are always credited, so I do have a credit for that under my author bio even though my cover artist is also, ya know, me. Just trying to set precedent so more people will start doing things like that.
So yeah! That's how this cover came together. I think it's one of my favorite covers I've ever done.
You can back the Kickstarter here to get your own special edition copy of this book!

Chit Chat and Updates
Hey guys, how are you all doing? I hope you are keeping strong!!
I have a few things I wanna cover for today.
1. I plan to do a reading today focusing on us and what we can still do that can ultimately have an effect and support RII7E.
As many of you know, I am unable to proceed with the usual method i use due to the sensitivity of the situation and there being some boundaries in place. But I am still monitoring and trying to see what little bits I can divulge when possible. Until then, we will be focusing on us.
Similarly and not related to this, I will reiterate to new people- Please do not ask:
When will SH come back?
What are the chances SH will come back?
Will SM bring him back?
When will SM bring him back?
The answer to all of these is: it depends on how long and hard we fight for the outcome. If we give up it is 100% over. Please do not ask me these questions. Instead of wanting an easy answer lets ask HOW we can make it happen, yes? I want to support everyone but we cannot just sit around hoping the outcome we want comes naturally and use a guaranteed answer as a means for motivation...that's like only studying bc you know you will get 100%. Who does that? Not only is it impossible to guarantee something with 100% certainty, but it just incites complacency. We don't need that.
2. Recently, as yall may know, I have been on the bird app to post my readings and incite some motivation....but good god, i am reminded of why I absolutely detest that app. The hyper consumption of knowing everything going on, both good and bad- yet still being within a tiny bubble community is so so so emotionally draining and even though I understood this was the cause of a lot of your negativity and depression before, I FEEL it now. I am not depressed or anything abt the situation in my personal realm, but it's more like I am forced as an empath to feel everyone else's feelings with every new post. It is soul sucking and gut-wrenching.
I wanted to stay updated and just help people, but it's insane the amount of literal life sucking energy that app has even amongst the silly bits.
So i want to say this to yall: PLEASE GET OFF OF TWITTER SOMETIMES.
Get your news, get your general vibe, like some posts, and gtfo until you need another BRIEF checkup. The longer you scroll, the more it sucks you bone dry and the more likely you see stupid things that make you upset.
Please please please get off there sometimes and spend some time in nature outside or at least on Tumblr.
My blog, while I wanted it to be a safe and positive space, has become a little tension filled due to this vibe i have been carrying with me, and i want it to end. I will be doing what I stated above too bc gosh, I really need my safety bubble back.
I hope you all heed this advise a little. It's okay to stay updated but scrolling for hours is not necessary and is going to take a toll of you mentally and emotionally even if you are not an empath.
3. I am thinking of doing live readings.
Idk abt the logistics yet, but I'm thinking a voice call situation so people can ask things realtime (this is lowkey bc i am tired of typing lately, hehe but pls do not blame me)
Some options are a Discord or maybe even just voice notes for my tumblr readings. Idk though. Yall lmk if you would bee interested in those!
I could also do little beginner lessons for new readers on a live format since some of yall are interested in learning tarot. It could be fun! Lmk if yall have any ideas.
That's all for now, I hope yall are doing okay. Just trust and wait!
For the outro pic, here is a pic of the cutest manhwa cat i have ever seen from this manhwa i have been reading lately:
Love yall!! 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵

Welcome back to Kaleesh Week! New hub blog this year: me, Accursed :)
Posting early to give time to the try-hards & the busy! Entries will not be reblogged until the week begins. Details under the cut!
What is Kaleesh Week?
Kaleesh Week is a week dedicated to the small but thriving subset of the Star Wars fandom that loves General Grievous and his people, the Kaleesh. Similar to much more well-known fandom celebrations such as Smaugust, Mermay, or Whumptober, Kaleesh Week can pertain to any medium of choice. Taking advantage of the fact that canon doesn't look over here to do whatever we want!
What are the rules?
The rules are simple, but should be followed to ensure the happiness of all participants and make my job as archivist easier!
Tag your stuff meant for the week with #kaleeshweek24 or #kaleeshweek2024 ! Tag @accursedkaleeshi additionally if you don't want me to miss it. I will be reblogging all the goods to my blog this year! (we still love TB, F in the chat. they aren't dead)
Any type of creation is allowed, whether art, fanfiction, gifs, videos, or anything else. As long as it's Kaleesh-related, there's no problem
Remember to properly tag all triggers
It isn't strictly necessary to follow along every day, this is meant to be fun! Post whenever you like, whether that's all seven days or just one. You can also post anytime after the week if you'd like
Alternate prompts can be used to mix and match in any way you'd like with the standard prompts, so go crazy
And last but not least, have fun!
What are the prompts, and what's the deal with alternate prompts?
The two lists of prompts a day are there to give any participants more freedom with whatever they'd like to create. The days are more of a guideline, as mentioned above. Go crazy, or for those of us with busy lives, freak it sensitive style in wild space. If you post only one thing of any effort whenever you can? You're participating fam! I will be reblogging your tagged posts when the week begins & beyond. pm me with any questions!
Prompts:
Color
Tusks
Tradition
Many
Food!
Fast
Nest
Alternate Prompts:
White
Teeth
Tech
One
Food?
Slow
Trees
Bonus Wildcard Prompt to swap with: Kaleeshi Hatsune Miku lol
I'd like to join the General Grievous Discord server! Where do I sign up?
If you'd like to come hang out with us at the Kaleeaboos server, simply PM me! We have all sorts of fun stuff going on, and a pretty chill vibe. I'm one of the mods there along with some other big names in the Grievous fandom. Come hang with us!
And finally, good luck, and have fun!

In another universe, we never stopped sitting in the discord voice chat, both our mics off, listening to music together while doing our own separate things, occasionally popping into the text chat to share what we were up to or talk about a song or send a silly dancing emoji when we were really vibing with a song.
In another universe, we never stopped dreaming of all the things we'd do when we would someday meet in person.
In another universe, you never stopped dreaming of someday meeting in person.
In another universe, you never called me your boyfriend.
In another universe, we let ourselves just be whatever we were in the moment. We remembered what I said at the beginning of it all - that we never needed to let ourselves be defined, that I was happy just to be with you in whatever way we were hour by hour, day by day, week by week, month by month.
In another universe, we took that advice and stayed with it. We never let ourselves be defined. We never needed to worry about if we were doing things right or wrong because there would be no right or wrong way to be us. We never would have let social standards of what is or isn't a relationship define us. We could be as fluid as we needed to be.
In another universe, just being there for each other was enough. We never felt pressured to talk every day or be part of every aspect of each others lives. All we needed was to know we could always come back to each other, and it would always be as if nothing ever changed, because nothing ever really needed to change.
In another universe, we were comfortable in silence, the same way we were when we sat in the voice chat, mics off, listening to the same music, doing our own separate things.
In another universe, you never felt like you needed to leave.
In another universe, when you did leave, I didn't take it so hard, or, if I did, I never told you, I never said anything about it where you could see.
In another universe, you still think about me.
In another universe, I was still yours, in whatever way you wanted me to be...
And in another universe, maybe I was actually a good enough person to deserve that.

pros about joining käärijävishun - a peaceful and ethical uravishun alternative:
❤ you realise you aren't boycotting alone!
❤ you can join a small, kääryleet community at the same time as others
❤ you can still party in the comfort of your own home AND support palestinians in the process - HOW COOL 🤩💞
❤ there is still a contest vibe! käärijävishun will have a downloadable scorecard where you can rank each käärijä song from black box based on three categories (plus extra songs like umk ruoska, emma gaala ccc, and more!)
❤ there will still be an interval where we tally up points and you can get your favourite snacks and stretch ur legs!
❤ there is a live chat feature so you can type along during käärijävishun if you want! (discord)
❤ there will be a podium top 3 winner announcement to find the best käärijä song
❤ safe space where there is no mention of uravishun on the day. peace away from the madness.
❤ käärijä redemption for last year's contest - ONLY KÄÄRIJÄ CAN WIN 😍💚❤
honestly having organised this event has lessened any sad feelings i once had. boycotting really isn't that hard, especially when there are other alternatives.
it is important to stand for change. now it is crucial more than ever.

A Calm to my Storm
Pairing: Max Verstappen x PewDiePie!sibling Summary: What if Felix had a genius brother who works as a RedBull's engineer and is also secretly dating Max Masterlist
Stream
It was a typical charity stream, where PewDiePie, Jacksepticeye, and Markiplier joined forces to raise money for a good cause. Fans were having a blast watching their favourite creators laugh, joke, and stumble through different games. The vibe was lighthearted, the donations were pouring in, and everything was going smoothly—until they started a multiplayer match with a few random players.
Suddenly, they began getting obliterated by one player in particular. No matter what they did, this guy was wiping the floor with them.
“Who the heck is this?” Felix groaned, fake annoyance dripping from his voice as he respawned for the fifth time in a row. “Are we playing against an actual professional here?” Mark added.
The fans were going wild in the chat, spamming with questions like:
User1: “WHO IS THIS GUY??”
User2: “Is this a pro gamer? He’s wrecking everyone!”
User3: “Pewds, you getting owned! 😂”
While Felix continued to grumble, Jacksepticeye burst out laughing, catching the viewers' attention. “Ohhh, damn it. Isn't that Sam's username, Felix?”
Felix paused for a second, then his eyes widened. “Wait… Sam?!”
Markiplier chimed in with a dramatic sigh. “Well, we may as well just stop trying now. It’s over. If Sam’s in the game, we’re done. We’re all dead.”
The comments exploded even more.
User1: “SAM IS HERE???”
User2: “Not Pewds’ brother killing them all!!”
User3: “Sam, the secret brother who is also an editor, is also killing three gaming youtubers in gaming?!”
User4: “Are they really just quitting? 😂”
Despite their best efforts, no one could put up a decent fight against Sam. He was completely dominating, and all Felix, Jack, and Mark could do was helplessly laugh as they got destroyed over and over again. The whole thing turned into a comedy bit, with the trio of streamers making jokes about how they should just retire from gaming now that Sam was in the picture.
As the match dragged on, out of nowhere, Sam joined their Discord call.
“Yo, you guys really gonna keep playing like that?” Sam’s voice came through, teasing them. “You’re making this too easy.”
The three of them froze for a second, stifling laughter. Sam clearly didn’t know they were live in front of thousands of fans, and the chat absolutely exploded with excitement.
User1: “OMG SAM JOINED THE CALL!!”
User2: “He has no idea 😂”
User3: “Sam is roasting them, and he doesn’t even know it!”
Mark was the first to respond, holding back laughter. “Oh, we’re trying, Sam. Believe me, we’re trying. But apparently, you’re just too good for us.”
“Maybe you should start trying for real,” Sam teased. “I thought you guys were professional gamers. This is embarrassing.”
Felix faked another sigh of frustration. “I’m trying, okay? It’s hard when someone’s playing at 200% sweat mode.”
Jack chuckled. “Yeah, Sam, give us a break, alright? This is for charity, not to shatter our delicate egos.”
Sam laughed. “Sure, sure. Excuses.”
The three of them exchanged a look, clearly holding in their laughter. Not one of them had told Sam that the stream was live, and the fans were loving every second of it.
“Anyway,” Sam continued, oblivious to the thousands of people watching, “I’ll go easy on you guys for a few rounds. Maybe you’ll actually put up a fight.”
Mark couldn’t take it anymore and cracked up. “You say that like we have a chance even if you go easy.”
Finally, Sam caught on to the laughter. “Wait… why are you guys laughing so much?”
There was a long pause, and then Jack, still laughing, said, “Sam, buddy… you’re live. With us. In front of… I dunno, how many people are watching, Felix?”
Felix checked the stream count. “Oh, just a casual 200,000 or so. No big deal.”
There was silence on Sam’s end, followed by a groan. “You didn’t tell me I was live!”
The chat exploded with laughter, hearts, and donations:
User1: “LOOOOOL Sam had no idea!”
User2: “Sam is literally roasting them live 😂”
User3: “Sam, you’re amazing! We need more of you on these streams!”
Felix grinned at the camera. “Well, now you know. And since everyone here is begging for more of you, how about you keep playing with us, huh?”
Sam groaned again, but you could hear the smile in his voice. “Fine, fine. But you’re still going down.”
As the match restarted, the chat was filled with love for Sam, with everyone laughing about how easily he’d destroyed three professional YouTubers. Felix, Jack, and Mark tried their best to regain control of the game, but the banter between them and Sam had turned into the main highlight of the stream. Fans were already demanding more collabs with Pewds’ brother, and it was clear that Sam had accidentally become a star in his own right.
As the stream went on, Felix shot one final grin at the camera, “Guess we’re stuck with him now, bros. Better get used to it.”

01/30/2024 OFMD Crew Recap
TLDR; RenewAsACrew Farewell; Notes on the Farewell; Cast & Crew Sightings; Rhys Darby; Kristian Nairn; Lindsay Cantrell BTS; Samba BTS; Upcoming Events; Watch Parties: #OurFlagMeansDeadloch; LubeAsACrew; StewAsACrew; #WhatWeDoInTheShadows; RelaxImFromTheFuture; Cast Appreciation Events: Damien Gerard; Samba Schutte; Articles; Videos; TV/Radio Times; Love Notes; Daily Darby/Tonight's Taika
==RenewAsACrew Farewell==
Tumblr / Twitter / IG
Alright lovelies, we're gonna have a little chat for a moment here. Please take a moment to read this part. I know a lot of you are feeling ansy and uncomfortable right now. It feels like something that we were hanging on to for a long time for support has suddenly fallen out from under us. That's a valid feeling. Feel it. It's good to feel it. We got this far with #RenewAsACrew, and it's scary to think that support isn't there anymore. I want to point out though, the most important part of that sentence, and that is "WE". #RenewAsACrew was a leadership team that steered us in a direction so that WE could hone our creativity, tenacity, love, support, and unhinged-ness towards our common goal, and you know what? We FUCKING DID IT. WE DID. ALL OF US. This campaign is not just #RenewAsACrew it really is ALL OF YOU. Every single one of you has stepped up and done something to support this campaign, stepped out of your comfort zones, supported each other, and you have accomplished SO MUCH in so little time. We can appreciate #RenewAsACrew, and all they did to help steer us, but we can and we WILL keep going. I know a lot of you have already heard and have even joined the #SaveOFMDCrew that is now stepping up as our navigator. I joined their discord last night, and I have to say, their organisation, passion, communication, problem-solving, is all top notch. They listen to us, the crew, they help provide support, and I have every confidence that they're going to keep us headed in the right direction. So please remember, this is not an end. Take some time tonight, vent your frustrations and fears, and feel them, and then come back tomorrow knowing we're all still here. I'll say it again-- we are not losing ground, we are not losing speed, or momentum, we are pivoting. We are changing course so that we can keep doing what we do best, and that is kicking ass, supporting one another, and fighting for our show and for queer and diverse representation in media. We will get our joy back in some form or another, even if that form is just this amazing found family we've all stumbled into. We got this. Now. Onto the fun stuff.
==Cast & Crew Sightings==
So I just have to say.. it could be the whole end of the social media strike thing, or just new week new stuff, but the cast and crew SURE does seem to be a lot more active today. Take that as you will, but I'm using it to fuel the "good stuffs happening" vibe many of us have been feeling. They really are watching what we're doing if Lindsey's comments are any indication
=Rhys Darby with Another Picture Trying to Murder The Internet=
Rhys decided to grace us with a lovely story on his Tiktok with a quote from Dazed & Confused, "You just gotta keep livin man, L I V I N"
=Kristian Nairn updating us on Wee John Wednesdays=
Couple pieces of news, looks like Wee John Wednesdays will now be Mondays! Still staying tuned for more information. You can follow him on his Twitter if you have that platform to keep up to date.
He also has a podcast and new track out on IG, here's a link to his podcast on mixcloud per @yronnia's request as well as Apple Podcasts
=Lindsey Cantrell with more BTS on Instagram!=
This woman is amazing. She SEES us trying and decided to give us a little treat, check out these IG Stories she posted.
= Samba Schutte also graced us with BTS! =

== Radio Times / TV Times! ==
Uk Folks, OFMD is showing up in Radio Times and TV Times!
Thanks @lamentus1 for the deets!: "While the Radio Times might seem negative it’s been pointed out a few times that just having a write up is a big deal. It’s been picked as the one new thing on that day that should have a bit more written about it. Which is a big deal. He’d have been very limited by word count to, so we should cut him some slack for consolidating what he had to say. "
==Videos==
Thank you to @fruityedge05 for their post on this video by MsMojo! "MsMojo posted a video about OFMD, and started the video by saying "Today we're looking at the most chuckle-worthy scenes in this outlandish pirate comedy that was cruelly canceled before it's time." Please check out their post and the video below!

== Side Notes ==
I'm in the process of compiling as many resources as possible into a documentation repository I use. It'll take a couple days to catch up with them so I'll be a bit scarce while that's happening because it's a lot of information! Also, FYI: I am taking Saturday the 4th off -- it'll be my first day off in 5 years and I'm going to the hotsprings nearby with some friends, and that night we're going to drink and watch OFMD and GO! So there won't be a recap for Saturday from me at least (pending if I get sick again), you're all welcome obviously to put one up if you'd like!
== Love Notes ==
It's been a very long day lovelies. You did an amazing job. Just know whatever you did today, we are proud of you, and you could never disappoint us here on the crew. You're exceptional, and we see the ever wonderful you! Bonus: A little love note I found on IG I thought you might like:

hello tags! It's been a little while since I've been on here, but I'm ready to dive back into the writing scene and looking for some new writing partners on Discord! ♡ please only interact with me if you are 21 + only, also just a small fyi my activity can be a bit unpredictable depending on life stuff, but I’m always around to chat, plot, and create if I’m not writing!!!
I’d love to brainstorm some MUMUs (small town, big big city, holiday resort, band, reality tv show, open for the options), but also happy to keep it small with a singular plot! i just want to get into musings, making some fun pinterest boards, playlists etc! i want all the angst, fluff, pain and smut.
a few plots and tropes which I am begging for and some fcs are below, but i'm open to anything and everything!!! if you're interested, give this a like and i'll reach out or message me! ♡
yearning plot, I just watched the Industry and it gave me the need for a pair who love each other, they completely yearn for each other but they can't be together. if you want your heart to break, listen to the last goodbye by the kills. I have quite a few different thoughts for this, they meet when they're young and they yearn for each other, but life gets in the way and ultimately they don't end up together, they love each other but one of them choses the path which is right for them. We can have them go through the break up and then meet again years across the line where it’s a mix of vulnerability and guardedness as both muses confront their past, knowing that the connection they once had slipped through their fingers. There could be moments of warmth and nostalgia mixed with painful realisations about how much has changed. I just need the angst!!!!
the affair, they’re both trapped in unhappy relationships, finding solace in each other’s arms. But as the passion between them grows, so does the guilt and the looming sense that their affair will only lead to heartbreak—for everyone involved.
trapped in a marriage of convenience, they were never supposed to fall in love. Bound by a loveless marriage for political or financial reasons, one of them has secretly harboured feelings all along. Now, as tension rises and secrets unravel, those buried emotions threaten to tear them both apart.
divorced couple, they are always in each others lives, their is fighting, they can't escape, let's add kids to the mix for the coparenting
the one who got away, this is slightly different to yearning because this couple aren't the same vibe it's a different font okay. They were madly in love in their early 20s, but life and ambition pulled them in different directions. Years later, they reconnect—both scarred from past relationships. There’s undeniable chemistry, but the fear of repeating history keeps them at a distance. Can they let go of their past mistakes and take a risk on love again, or are they doomed to drift apart once more?
the cost of fame, he’s an up-and-coming actor/musician etc, skyrocketing to fame, while she’s still living an ordinary life. They were high school sweethearts, but as his career takes off, the pressure of his public image and constant media attention start to tear their relationship apart. Will their love survive the world of flashing cameras and false rumours, or will fame turn him into someone she no longer recognises??? where will the angst take us??
fighter plot, after re-watching the creed I need a boxer plot so maybe something like in creed where is fighting his way to the top, but his girl can’t handle the fear of losing him to the sport etc
a coffee shop meet-cute, or any meet-cute where it can be something like she's the regular at his coffee shop, always rushing in with a complicated order and a smile that lights up the place. He’s the barista who secretly gives her an extra shot of espresso to brighten her day. After months of shy glances and friendly small talk, a chance encounter outside of the café leads to a series of adorable, awkward dates full of laughs, misunderstandings, and the beginning of something real.
a classic holiday fake dating, one of them desperately needs a date for the family’s holiday reunion to avoid endless questions about their love life, so they convinces their co-worker (or best friend) to pretend to be their partner for the week. Cue romantic holiday moments, cute banter, and the unexpected realisation that maybe they’re not just pretending after all.
I just need anything that is enemies to lovers, anything that is friends to lovers, anything that is forbidden lovers, anything that is exes to lovers to exes again, give me the slowburn, just any of these tropes on repeat
i also do have a wanted plots tag which is here - this has not been updated in a while but i will always want these plots!
some fcs i’ve been wanting to play or have has opposites are below, i'm not limited to them and open to any other options too!!!

The 3AM Stream Incident
SOOOhbkabgsjf i haven't done something like this in a while, but I just go so inspired over in the discord @majimasleftasscheek with the streamer!kiryu idea that i had to write SOMETHING and i really loved this idea we came up with so here's SOMETHING!!! username cameos are all people from the server!!
if i had to put it somewhere, something post yakuza 3 pre yakuza 4. in order to make money for the orphanage, haruka and the kids introduced him to this streaming thing. he wanted to engage in their interests, and has always enjoyed gaming deep down, the money aspect also helps out a lot. he's formed a relatively decent sized community, but has yet to go viral. the streamers are pretty laid back and the children's identities are protected, but thanks to the younger audience of streaming in general, the chat has taken to calling him 'uncle kaz' like the kids do when they call for him off screen.
this is. short and silly and i didn't go too hard on it, but i hope it's fun!! kazumaji implied cause it will be with everything i write.
Kiryu doesn't stream off schedule, not often at least. Life gets in the way sometimes, but he's never done this before. It's quiet in the orphanage, he doesn't want to disturb the kids... but he also can't sleep. Not actually worth anything, at least. It's another all nighter, one that hopefully he can recover from while the kids are at school tomorrow. Today. If there's one thing he's thinking about this isn't the various people haunting him... It's Pocket Circuit LIVE. He figures that was something more productive to be doing than just laying here.
His steps are quiet as he makes his way into the small room that had been built in the rebuilding process of Morning Glory. This room was even in the process of being sound proofed, a gift from Daigo that was hard to refuse. With the door shut, he could be a bit more comfortable with his movements.
Hopefully, not too many people in the chatroom are up either. He thinks he remembers hearing talk about finals during these months. Still, it'd be worth going live, people liked him for his ''chill vibes'' and ''comforting streams''. There was always a twinge of a pride even he knew was a bit goofy, compared to the other things he was proud of. Perhaps he could help them sleep, much like a bed time story... But to the sound of Pocket Circuit LIVE dailies.
When Kiryu hits the 'go live' button, he skips through his starting soon screen, going straight to his face cam and gameplay set up. As the game boots up, a bit slower than usual from having to do it while he's live, the first few messages start to pop up
macthedragon: ayo cosmomemory: ??? tabbitha44: damn this game got you by the throat uncle kaz
"Good evening, chatroom." Kiryu smiles at the messages, the exhaustion painfully clear in his eyes he's sure. "I'm surprised other people are up at this hour. I can't sleep, and I can be quiet during this game to not wake the kids. So long as I don't pull." He adds the addendum before anyone in chat could mention that.
Through his months of doing this, he's learned that many of these 'stream chatrooms' have a sort of 'culture' to them. Each streamer has a different kind of audience they cater to, but many share a back and forth dynamic with their 'chatroom'. It was more work than he had ever realized, it was an interesting new world he had begun to discover.
The motions now are practiced and fluid. Daily missions were a walk in the park. Use a new wheel, win a race without a balance frame, win a race with a golem tiger. As the races began to blend, Kiryu quietly talks with his delayed chatroom, "I don't think I'll be streaming tomorrow, I'll announce on my social media platforms in the morning if I will or won't."
aquaortus: twitter. you can say twitter looneyzune: be nice to him, he's not wrong
Kiryu knew full well he could say 'Twitter', but people seemed to like his antiquated way of saying things as much as it grated on them. It was much like with the children in the orphanage, in that way. The chat was significantly slower, but that was nice for him. He didn't directly talked to them, more so just began saying how his day was, it had been a nice day off, he just might need another.
esutonia: take all the time you need uncle kaz cosmomemory: we all could use one i think looneyzune: you deserve the time off, uncle kaz! macthedragon: please don't say you're leaving to get milk- aquaortus: going to sleep to this stream, gnight everyone
It was nice to see the messages of comfort in the corner of his eye, even as they began to talk amidst each other other than just with him. Of course, he quietly wished the viewers going to bed good night, which ended up being a few of them when an hour had passed. Less than 50 people were watching him at that point. There's a few points where he has to quiet down, hearing something shuffling outside of the room, and he has to make sure he didn't wake one of the children. Thankfully, no such incident happens, and he continues on with the quiet stream.
Quiet for a good while, but by hour two, something goes wrong. A name that he had expected to be gone from this stream popped up, marked with a green sword and bright pink text.
gorogorogorochan: Kiryu-chan what the fuck is this shit looneyzune: uh oh esutonia: SCATTER brahkest: uncle majima moment! it's so over
"M-Majima-!" Kiryu jumped at seeing that familiar name, the chatroom having a similar reaction. He looked to the door, knowing he was a good while away in a hotel, yes, but like he could be there at any moment. "I just couldn't sleep, so... Why am I not surprised you're up at this hour too." He truly should have expected this. "I'll only go for another hour. You should get some rest."
He looks at his quest list. Dailies are done, but weeklies are nearing completion. He could go ahead and knock those out now if he's going to take a break soon. Kiryu gets to it, settling back into the rhythm of the game he found so addicting.
gorogorogorochan: Are ya fuckin' kiddin' me gorogorogorochan: TEN MINUTES mrbeefgnaw: oh rip uncle kaz tabbitha44: h u h cosmomemory: it's so over looneyzune: ...has he noticed looneyzune: uncle kaz are you with us
With chat going so slow due to so few people, now less than 20, Kiryu didn't notice it. Pocket Circuit LIVE was too temping. He keeps good on his promise to not pull, but ten minutes have gone by without him really saying a word. He was both too tired and too engrossed in the menial yet fun activities of his favorite pass time.
brahkest: TIME IS UP: UNLEASE THE HOUNDS tabbitha44: what did he Mean by this macthedragon: he never realized omg.....
The questions as to what he had meant didn't go unanswered for long. Kiryu looked over at the chatroom, finally seeing the sudden activity, "Chatroom, did something-" And is cut off by the door to his room swinging open. It just barely is held back from slamming by a tired, haggard, and ticked off looking Majima. He blinks in surprise at his sudden appearance, standing up and taking the same headphones the man had gifted him off his head, "Majima? What are you-"
The next moment, Majima is charging him.
Kiryu barely manages to understand whats happening in the mere second he's given before Majima's long legs get him across the room. He's still taken to the ground in the next second, but he knows not to start fighting back by then. All the camera sees in a yellow and black blur, and then Kiryu going out of frame.
brahkest: UNCLE MAJIMA MOMENT!!!! mrbeefgnaw: oh rip lol looneyzune: UFBKSD cosmomemory: JHDFKSDG macthedragon: HJDKFJDFHLD tabbitha44: LMAOOOO estunia: JHFKDSFKESJB
The last thing the stream sees is a gloved hand slapping around on the table to find the keyboard, and when it's found, the stream is shut off.

Announcements 📣
So there it is my little devils. 76 chapters and 7 months later, we have finished!
I have some unique shoutouts but stick around because there’s more info at the bottom!
@feral-fox-crypt / @wendigonamecaller - for being my first author friend! I know I’m not active on the discord but I’m still glad we made it together!
@jgabriel1920 - for your amazing villain OCs. Blackwater was by far my favorite villain I’ve ever written and creating lore for Judah/John was fun! Thanks for our plot development chats too :)
@soggyfern - for kickstarting the creative juices and brainstorming my next story with me!
@liz776 and @flamingoblubber - for your constant reblogs of my work. You’ve helped spread the word about my story!
@martinys-world, @papas-ghoulette, and @vvollerie - for your wonderful, steadfast comments!
@mcntsee @blubugg13 @serenity-songbird @az--zy @direbatattack and among the others who've already been @'d in this post - for your OCs who helped flesh out the story. I enjoyed the challenge of writing a character I didn't come up with!
Of course, can’t forget my anonymous 🥩 who was there to submit in depth thoughts about my work early on, giving me the courage and inspiration to keep going. Hope you enjoyed your meal :P
And most importantly, to the ~65 individuals who liked each of my posts. And especially to the ~16 who watched and waited for the climax parts to come out in real time. Without your likes, I would feel alone. Thank you for the support!
****and if I missed you, please message me! But I'm pretty sure I got everyone
———————————-
Now, sappy stuff aside.
I’m not done writing delicious Alastor works, BUT I do plan on making them significantly shorter than Demi Demon. I love novels but man, that was tough. I’m trying to focus more on longer chapters in fewer amounts. I’ve got work, my masters, friends, a side project, and my own WIP I’m trying to finish too!
At some point this week, you will get another announcement revealing the title, vibe, and summary of my next story. It’s currently being hammered and plotted so I’m going to wait to finalize everything before I let you know. My only hint: take a look at the results of all my polls
———————————
Lastly, I’m going to put this in a different post so people can always access it:
I. Want. Your. Opinion.
Specifically on Demi Demon.
I want to become a published author and I believe fanfiction is a way to play around and develop experience/skill for writing and storytelling. So I’m asking all of you to return the favor and submit an anonymous form where you’ll tell me your thoughts (good and bad) on Demi Demon.
When the post is up you can access it HERE
Also, keep checking my pinned post. I make small little changes every now and then :P
—————————-
Again, I’m so SO grateful for all of you. Your support, no matter how big or small, has truly helped me finish this novel. I was going through a lot these past months and your support helped me through some dark times. So thank you!!
Enjoy the peace as we transition stories because I’ll be back to make you love and cry all over again!
~ Sparrow
