#as you know if you've followed this blog for awhile

[dreamlandiasims]

hello and life updates

hiii friends!

i am (kind of) back after my latest unplanned hiatus ahaha, nothing particularly bad happened in my personal life to cause me to leave or anything like that but i did decide that i needed to prioritize my irl friends and community for awhile because i had a big life change coming up, which was moving to a new town to start my masters program! i have since moved and started said program, which has been going well but definitely takes up like all of my time ;_;

on the future of my story:

honestly while i was away i would revisit my story from time to time in the hopes i would find motivation to come back and keep working on it, but i feel like instead i just kept finding flaws and plot holes that discouraged me more :( i still cherish frankie and co dearly and have saved all of their files on the off chance i decide to pick things back up! but for now i'm officially putting the story on hiatus. I'M SORRY i know i left it on such a cliffhanger :((

on the future of this blog:

i have actually decided to fully restart on a new blog! there's literally nothing wrong with this one i just kind of want a clean slate. if you're interested in seeing what i'm up to going forward, you can follow me at @saccharinesim (i'd love to have you!) i might even already have a story idea that i'm fleshing out ahaha. given how busy i am these days i can't promise any amount of consistency, but i've missed this community and everyone in it a whole lot and the fact that i cannot seem to stay away just goes to show how valuable it is :')

ok that's all i have to say for now! peace and love everyone <3

[ladyseidr]

gonna go take a shower way later than intended but i went full-blown elise muse out of nowhere and got numerous asks + a thread replied to so um. hi.

I’m here to:

– help you get into the void, manifest and let loa do the work without getting misinformed by tiktok (not trying to be messy but you know how it can get when you find info on tiktok..)

– remind you that you can be a total wreck and still be divine

– give zero-tolerance advice for self-hate manifestation (like no... absolutely not.)

– teach you how to own reality like it owes you rent

you want:

☐ comfort? (or maybe a bitchy voice giving you comfort?)

☐ real talk?

☐ a push into the void, manifestation, shifting or loa?

☐ to be called out gently (or violently)?

baby you’re in the right place.

✦ “Void Guide but with teeth” – no fluff, just slaps

✦ "You're powerful, bitch" - another girl talk cause why not? gotta help my girlies and gays out

✦ "Girl, you don't "fake it 'til you make it" - cause that is the OPPOSITE of persisting in the fact that everything you've always wanted is already yours..

✦ "Stop worrying about the how." - girl, all you have to do is sit back and persist in the knowing that you already have everything.

✦ "You're not doing anything wrong." - let me tell you, it's simply your assumption.

✦ "You NEVER needed to try, like at all." - like.. this is our natural state.

About me and boundaries:

30, he/they ftm, 1.5yrs on t, 5 months post top surgery, pansexual and poly, we do things seperately but are aware of eachother doing things.

This is a side blog for spicy fun times and connecting with other queer people. Main blog i like and follow from is @/ti*********ws

Approx of what i look like cause picrews are cute.

Open to random pics/light flirting, do not expect play. See below for boundaries.

Green light

Body terms: pussy, cunt, wet, hard, hole, dick, cock. Mostly anything except tits. Slowly recovering sensation from top surgery.

Degradation/praise, love giving and receiving. names i like: baby, sweetie (condescending), my *any petname*, angel, darling, kiddo, son, little one, big bro, pet, pup/py, mutt, fag/got, very little in the way of limits with degredation.

Bd/sm dynamics, bottom/sub leaning verse/switch.

Pet play, puppy boy.

Fauxcest, dad x son and older brother x younger brother. Kiddo, son, little one, big bro. Daddy tag belongs to @yetanothermutt 💜 Little bro tag belongs to @n33dy-pup 💜

Edging, denial, and orgasm control. Like getting told when I'm allowed to cum. See how much I edge, just started keeping track 💜

Pics/lewds/vids/audio, I am pansexual so I am not picky, I'm just excited to be here. I do prefer other trans people, but I'm not gonna turn my nose up at getting cis queer people in my inbox.

Threats and cnc messages welcome, including breeding (it is purely through a k!nk perspective, not wishing anything upon myself or anyone else in a real sense)

Intox (weed, im a lightweight though), and somno (still exploring this one).

Eh, yellow light, I'm neutral on these

Casual play: i am at cpacity with kink rn and have dedicated play partners. Do not expect casual play in my dms for the most part.

Calls/FaceTime/face pics, probably only be okay with it after getting to know someone or exchanging pics for awhile.

Force masc, but only if it's in a gender affirming way.

Cis straight folks, if you're gonna interact, figure out how to talk to trans people first. This is not an education page, I will not teach you how here.

Hard no, red light, don't try

Minors, you don't belong here. If I don't see an age in bio or pinned, instant block. If you've made it to this point, block me. NOW.

Those with age restrictions can block me if they don't want me around. I know I'm older in the community, if that weirds you out block me. I try to pay attention if a blog doesn't want XX+ interacting, but I don't always catch it. We're all adults here.

No detrans, or fake boy content

No scat/watersports, no vomit, no feeder/ed, no sh, no blood play (fine with risk aware acts, just not a fan of bleeding for those reasons).

My current tags: #funtimeanswers for asks, #funtimespeaks for og posts, #funtimesdaddy for my daddy 🥰, #funtimeslittlebro for my little bro 🕷

If I've left anything else out that you're curious about, you can always send an ask and I can update this post. BDSM test results below. Everything else is welcome to my DMs. 💜💜💜

1000 Follower Celebration

I never thought much of my work so I've waited to do celebrate until 1000. For those who've followed and anyone who liked, commented, or reblogged anything, here is an event as thanks. Please know that this blog and those in this fandom mean so much to me. I read every tag, comment, and reblog and they make my day every time.

If you've followed me for awhile you'll know my writing can be slow and fickle. As a thank you I am committing to fulfilling the requests I receive between November 23rd - November 30th. After that I'll be closing my requests until I work through them.

Now let's get to it!!

Some quick rules

Pick up to 3 prompts.

I'll take individual character requests or something like "members of the 501st/Bad Batch reacting to" requests as well.

I will be doing requests for Clones/Star Wars first and then any previous fandoms I've written for.

I will not be taking anon requests for this event

Let me know what character(s) you want.

If you have them, please state SFW/NSFW preferences

If you have them, please state what gender preference you have.

I retain the right to not write prompts that are uncomfortable/extreme for me.

Tell me as many details as you want, it really helps! You can DM me too if you'd like to discuss.

If you've submitted previous request you'd still like done, feel free to send it again. Tumblr has vanished some requests and I've never seen them again

Please be patient, I waited until life calmed down to focus on this event but writing takes time.

Prompt List

My favorite prompts are the personal ones. If you've been going through anything and you'd like comfort, distraction, or in character advice from your favs, I'm here for you. It's been helpful for me and I'd love to do that for you. Be as specific as you want <3

I'll take continuation requests for previous fics. (I am working on Two Faces pt 3 and aim to finish the Hound drabbles from the past, so if its for them don't you worry, just be patient please.)

[deejadabbles]

Hello, friends. I know it's been a while. I've been meaning to make and post this for forever. Below I'll go into a bit more detail about what's been going on, but the tldr is basically: Life has dealt me some not great hands this past year, and during that time I lost my muse for the fandom.

I wanted to let everyone who followed my works know that I will no longer be updating my fics. At least not for the foreseeable future. My brain likes to cycle through fandoms, so I might cycle back around (its happened before!), but for now at least, I probably won't be writing/posting anything.

Thank you to everyone who read my fics and continue to read them, you mean the world to me and I'll still be around if you ever want to chat 💙

There's a bit more detail about personal stuff under the cut, but you absolutely do not have to read if you don't have the spoon to <3

So, I won't go into graphic detail, but over the last year I had several life upheavals. Including losing my job, my mother falling ill, and several other deeply personal things. Thankfully, my loved ones and I are managing, and for that, I'm thankful.

I've been struggling with my mental health during all of this, too, and I don't think I realized just how bad it was until I saw how poorly my physical health had gotten as well. I'm currently taking steps to better both my mental and physical health, so don't worry <3

In fact, taking some of those steps this week is what really made me realize that I probably won't be writing for the Star Wars fandom for awhile. It looks like my rolodex brain is choosing to fixate on comics again right now lol (BTW I do have a comic themed side blog if anyone wants to follow it)

I'll still be around on this blog, of course. SW is and always will be a huge part of my life, I just wont be interacting with fanfiction on the same level. Not to mention that I've met so many wonderful people I've come to cherish in this fandom, I'm still just a message away if you ever want to chat! I've missed you guys a lot over this last year

Thank you, if you've read this far. I won't lie and say I'm doing okay (especially with the state of america right now) but I'm at least surviving and trying to get better. If anyone else want to come chat and catch up, please feel free to. In the mean time, keep fighting and ily💙

Ofelia Montez will have to see if she can survive long enough to find out.

Tw: kind of a vent, mention of depression and anxiety.

I'm sure you've all noticed by now that I haven't been posting a whole lot as of late. To be honest, I've kind of been avoiding this blog, not because of anything my followers did, but mainly because I kind of lost the meaning of my art.

I started using Tumblr exclusively to use the messaging feature to chat with my partner four years ago, but decided to share some of my art, just for fun. I wanted to make people happy, wanted to use my art and writing to not only convey how I felt and what I was experiencing, but to help those going through something similar feel heard and seen. I feel like I have achieved that, in some cases, and it makes me feel good to know that I've made someone's day, or that my writing made them feel understood.

As time progressed though, I began to feel like I had an obligation. Art and writing began to feel more like a chore, and that combined with my resurfacing depression and anxiety made it nearly impossible to even pick up the pencil. It seemed more draining than anything, and the art I did make I didn't share because it reflected my mental state in a deep and personal way.

Tldr, I'm sorry to all the people who have been waiting for updates to my stories, or more Mario content in general, or answers to their asks. It's not that I don't want to finish them, or make more content. It's just that I've realized that my lack of motivation is coming from the fact that I'm making art that I think others want, and not art that I want.

I've been rediscovering Undertale lately, reminded of how amazing the game is and how deep the storyline is, and I want to make more content for that. I'm big into weirdcore and would like to explore it as a style. I want to revisit Dhmis and expand on their story. There's so much I wanna do, but I've been holding myself back and trying to make myself as enthusiastic about Mario as I was before. The truth is, hyperfixations come and go for me, and that's ok. Mario will probably come back here and there, but I'm gonna try to focus on the stuff that I wanna do, because that's when my art is best, and when I feel the best making it. I can't tell you how satisfying it was to draw that piece with Asriel and his parents! I was into Undertale when it first blew up, my friend and I, but left when the fandom began to get toxic. It's so sad to me how disturbed it was, but now I'm much wiser with regards to internet safety, and I know to avoid certain things.

It's very nostalgic for me to rediscover the game, the music I listened to on loop years ago, the amazing artists who had a pure and genuine love for the characters, all of it.

In short, Mario isn't gone, they're just off enjoying their happy ending for awhile before they feel like visiting again. Again, I hope you all understand, and can find content you love from my blog! From now on though, I'm gonna try to avoid forcing myself to make content I don't love. Because from the beginning my art has been an escape that made me happy. If it doesn't make me happy, what's the point lol?

I love and appreciate you all so much,and I hope you can understand this word vomit. Hope you all have a lovely day.

[codthefishgod]

Haven't thrown an essay to the other Faroff fanatics recently and the new episode had a LOT of writing material SO I'M BACK TO BE THE FANDOM RANTER ✊

I apologise for my recent absence, I'll try to get back to doing my long ass Faroff posts more frequently again LMAO

(Split below for spoilers on episode 75 of Faroff)

I see you have opted in.

AHEM.

First off, MORE SONAN GOVERNMENT LORE!? Apparently things haven't always been this way... I sort of got that implication already from how Tobias talked about the Supreme Lord, particularly the way he said that he'd been making stupid rules "since he got chosen", but this confirms that the same thing applies to Sona as well. It was recent enough that Oskar remembers it, but still long enough ago that Fenn doesn't... Which is especially not good considering that many of the soldiers are likely around Fenn's age, so most of them also probably grew up in this time of being brainwashed to the absolute max, not knowing there was any other option. Awfully convenient for the king to have all those brainwashed soldiers though-

The fact that there used to be better, more just leaders on both sides also leads me to believe that maybe this war started after the current Sonan king and current Supreme Lord took power. They're both pieces of shit, must be made for each other, yes?

Anywho, touching on another detail during this flashback... THE PASSPORTS. THE MILLIONS OF PASSPORTS BEHIND OSKAR... I believe I smell rebel action, don't you? Not that surprising for Oskar, honestly. My friend ( @sunlikesdrawing ) suggested to me this theory, and I back it up in its entirety: Oskar may be using those passports to help people escape from Sona. Frankly, if I lived in Sona, I'd want the hell out of there too.

But this leads into another theory (again, credits to @sunlikesdrawing , I would not of thought of this on my own-), what if this is somehow connected to Fenn's eventual falling out with Oskar? What if, maybe, Oskar got caught? What if he's in prison right now? Of course Fenn would think him a traitor for defying the king...I also wonder if this happening made him even more extreme in his beliefs than he was. Time will tell, I suppose.

Alright, I believe that is all I have to point out about the flashback! Moving on to the rest of the episode.

There is one thing in particular that stood out to me. If you've been following my blog awhile and possess a strong memory, you might remember that I've done the math with all the dates + visual clues we've been provided thus far and came to the conclusion that it must be currently March of 1914. However, when the song ends, the radio states, "...their music first rising to fame after performing at a ball hosted by the Olvindar pillar family in 1914." Typically, when saying something like this, if it was still the same year, you'd say "earlier this year" or something else to that effect. Saying it happened "in 1914" implies that the year 1914 has already passed. Perhaps I need to recheck my math.

Alright, done with the serious stuff now. I love that Oskar is a constant reminder to Fenn that what he's doing with/for Tobias IS the right thing to do, no matter what the king says. It's very lovely. And the fact that Fenn remembered him saying "sometimes you need to do things that are good for your happiness" and immediately thought of Tobias... I wonder if this sentiment will at all help sway Fenn in pursuing Tobias in.... Forbidden relationships... He is good for Fenn's happiness, after all. We'll see. 👀

P.S. Fenn has the most appalling dance moves, I had to turn my phone off for a moment to process my second hand embarrassment when he started trying to dance- Tobias being super hyped to keep dancing with Fenn was ADORABLE, these fuckers are literally holding hands and dancing and it's WONDERFUL- also the sneak peeks for the next episodes!?!? I'M SO EXCITED FOR NEXT FAROFF MONDAY HOLY SHIT

[imrllytootiredforthis]

hi everyone,

i know i've been practically dead for the past while, i've been going through some things in real life (besides our favourite pretty boys<3).

my physical as well as mental state haven't been great over the course of a long time i realized and i felt like a needed a break from...everything. i'm really glad that i have some really good friends and family members that honestly kept me going throughout all of it, i'm honestly not completely sure where i would be now if they weren't there for me.

after awhile, my hand ended up healing, i'd like to think that i was pretty happy, things seemed actually really good...until they weren't

that being said i don't know when or if i will continue writing on here as i don't think i'm in the right space to or will be anytime in the near future.

. . . ⇢ ˗ˏˋ [ blog update ! ] ࿐ྂ

+ some housekeeping and info on new writing

hello my loves !! i wanted to give y'all some insight on what's been going on in my mind palace lately. there's a lot...so...cmon, take a walk w me...and maybe bring some snacks.

ੈ♡˳ first and foremost ! my work has received a lot more attention recently and i am so excited. with actual tears in my eyes, im happy to report that i surpassed 1,000 followers the other day. i am at a loss for words...just...stuck in a perma-state of disbelief.

im sending out the biggest thank you to everyone who has supported me, who's interacted with my work, to the lovely friends ive made though this account and to the heartbreakingly beautiful anime that brought me here in the first place. i am genuinely in awe...overwhelmed, even...i didn't expect any of this to happen when i started this blog and i am forever indebted to all of you for getting me here. im actively fighting off the inevitable surge of imposter syndrome as i type this out...i just love y'all so fucking much. this community means the world to me and i wanna scream at the top of my lungs in order to demonstrate my deepest appreciation for each and every one of y'all.

ੈ♡˳ secondly ! a message for my little angel babies, my day one followers; thank you for taking a chance on me. for watching me grow. for sticking around as i worked to get better at writing. im sure a lot of you started following me for my gamer!bf sukuna series...trust me, i love him and i know y'all do too. but i feel like my writing is heading in a different direction...and with a heavy heart, i'm absolutely gutted when i say that i am taking a pause on that series. i am forever grateful for the support and may return to him soon, though i cannot promise that. i owe so much of what my account is now to that series and i will never forget that.

for everyone who joined me as i delved into dark/dead dove content, thank you from the bottom of my heart for allowing me a safe space to explore different forms of story-telling. my choso fic was the first stepping stone and then i skipped every other stone on the path and jumped head first into the deep end with my dead dove gojo fic...i deeply appreciate all the positive feedback i received on both of those. after posting them, i realized that i am very into writing dark content. i know that taboo themes/dark content/dead dove subject matter isn't for everyone and i understand people's apprehension in regards to it. but with that being said, i will be moving forward with publishing darker content.

ੈ♡˳ so here's the writing update !

i did a poll asking y'all what kind of content you enjoy. a good chunk of people said long form fics (which is great, cause i do too !! mommy needs plot). so, i am migrating away from one shot writing. both because i've been thinking about it for awhile and because y'all are into longer stories, as well. but fear not, i will still write shorter stuff along with headcannons, drabbles, etc...it just won't be the main focus of my blog anymore.

ੈ♡˳ now, time for the big reveal ! perhaps it's a bit anticlimactic, but bear with me...

im so excited to announce that i have two new series coming ! it will be a dark, modern!au featuring choso (with a few other special guests) and a dead dove sukuna series.

i'm almost finished with the outlines, and have fully completed the theme layout + mood boards for both works. i hope to get the first few chapters wrapped up in the next couple weeks. if you want to be tagged in either of these (or both), just leave a comment or send me a message !

(also !! i may or may not be cooking up a dark medieval au series in collaboration with another writer on here...so be on the lookout for that hehe)

while i take breaks from writing my two series, i'll be working through my requests ! so if you've sent one in, i promise i will get to it, unless i literally cannot think of a good way to write it (im only human, im so sorry). also, im sure we already knew this, but im a slowww writer. i wish i could churn content out quick as fuck but i am too hypercritical of myself…it's both a blessing and a curse, honestly.

if you made it all the way to the end of this nightmare of a brain dump, i love you. if you've been with me for a while, i love you. if you're just now joining me, i love you. everyone who’s supported me in any way, shape, or form, i love you.

i present you with the sloppiest kiss with tongue (only if you want it, of course. i can also give you the tightest hug, the gentlest head pat, or my social security number...access to all my bank accounts? a mansion in the hills? my passport? hand in marriage? my first born child? literally whatever you want, babe).

okay !! i think that's all for the updates. feeling: very ambitious and motivated but also overwhelmed and mildly stressed but overall super excited for what's to come. im looking forward to this new adventure and i hope y'all come along with me ˚ ༘♡ ⋆｡˚

thank you again…for literally everything. yall hold a special place in my heart and always will. so, here we go !

see you on the other side, my loves.

My Prix de Lausanne Favorites!

Hey everyone, if you've followed by blog for awhile you probably know that I'm a big fan of the Prix de Lausanne! This year was another amazing competition and every year it seems like the level of talent gets higher and higher. Everyone at the Prix is so so talented but I thought I'd share some of the dancers which I personally found particularly amazing!

Angelina Tan, 111, Non-finalist

She's probably my favorite female dancer of this year's prix. I was so disappointed and surprised that she didn't make it to the finals but since she is still fifteen I'm hopeful that she will come back in the next year or two. And even if she doesn't, she clearly has a very bright future. I will say that watching the livestreams her variation was a bit stronger in rehearsal, so maybe she was a little nervous during Selections. Regardless, she's a beautiful dance with great lines and a very elegant style. Can't wait to see where she's headed!

Chloe Helimets, 101, Finalist

The youngest female dancer in the competition, Chloe Helimets showed a stunning level of maturity and technical prowess for her age. She also brought such a sunny and bright presence to the stage and considering how young she is, by the time she's eighteen or so and joining a company I think she'll be phenomenal. While she didn't win a scholarship, I have no doubt that she will be offered positions in ballet schools after her showing at the prix.

Hono Hamasaki, 102, 7th Place Prize Winner

Another beautiful Flora variation, it was no surprise to me at all that Hono Hamasaki was awarded a prize at the end of this year's prix. Her interpretation was both delicate and joyful and I found myself smiling the whole way through her variation!

Ryan Handa, 424, 6th Place Prize Winner

My personal favorite of the male competitors, I found both Handa's classical and contemporary variations to be really impressive, but his classical variation was especially amazing. He has such power and elegance in his movements and I was actually surprised he didn't place higher. He clearly has a very bright future!

YouJae Park, 214, 1st Place Prize Winner

The winner of the Prix de Lausanne, YouJae Park, has such technical strength and also a lot of charm and charisma on stage. He shows so much personality in his variations and seems like a professional already! He's certainly very deserving winner and I'm excited to see which scholarship he will accept!

It’s me again 💝

I’ve been in the Hotd fandom since the show first aired but got really into it once adult Aemond showed up . I’ve dabbled in a bunch of what I call creator content, fics , imagines even editing videos … I just don’t seem to find my people or I have people and they talk for awhile but then ghost . I try not to stress cause I get it we have lives and that shit comes first but it’s just idk sad when I try so hard and I’m lost in the crowd if you will. I’ve reached out to people via dm and I usually try to comment and give my opinion to get some interaction . Perhaps I’m making a bigger deal than I should . I would love to come off anon and dm but I just don’t wanna be judged and I say this even though I know people reading this will think pathetic . It is what it is

Hi 💝! Thank you for writing again! First, no negative self-talk on my blog. 😊 It's not a rule exactly, but I don't support it. Maybe you follow me, that's irrelevant, but I doubt that the demographic of my followers will think anything about this is pathetic. Outside of them, if they think that, they can block me and then we don't have to worry about their opinions, do we?

Now that's out of the way, don't worry about coming off anon. You don't have to or you can decide later. I answered another ask and said this and it bears repeating:

Feelings are valid, but they are not always truth.

Maybe it is a big deal to you at this point in your life. It has been to me at other times (not on Tumblr because I was on a near-10 year break from it). I don't like to give advice because I'm not in your shoes. I can only offer an ear to listen and my honest opinions.

Keep creating!! Whether it's in a fandom setting or not. I only write what I want to write. I only make gifs of what I want (or need for a fic). Make things when you feel inspiration or even if you don't. Drop your imagines in here if you want. Especially (but not limited to) excitement you have during the second season! There is going to be so much lovely chaos during the second season. We are all going to have thoughts!

As for your experience on your blog, follow more people, reblog with comments/discourse (if it's kind and not hurtful). And try not to compare yourself to others. I know it's difficult when notes on a post feel so damn good, but they aren't always immediate. And be yourself. I don't mean any of this as advice - it's just how I behave on here. Try not to try, just be.

I am so glad you've been in the fandom since the start! I stared my HotD experience on AO3 because I had been on there for years. Then a conversation in the comments in October 2022 got me on Tumblr for the first time since 2013/14. I'm so glad it did! There has been drama (I took a hiatus from Jan 2023 until March 2024) but there has been more joy and fun than that for me. I do that on purpose.

As I've said before, there were about 9 million viewers for the season 1 finale. That's a lot of people. More than I can imagine. So, if I were to offer advice it would be this: this time around for me I have been looking at the tags I follow more often than I used to. I look at posts that are like-minded: kind posts, funny posts that don't make fun of any part of the fandom, and posts about niche characters/elements. Then I look at that blog further, check out older posts to see if they have my same values (or close), and if so, I give them a follow. People don't always follow back, that's okay. But I get to see their positivity or inclusivity and that enriches my experience. The Nettles community is one of the best out here and I am so glad I get to be a part of it. We don't always agree but it's so fun to find a part of another aspect of the fandom. I throw my net wide because there are so many of us.

Lastly, like I said in a recent answer: what do you do to make others feel heard? Do you comment on posts when people express that they are lonely in a fandom? Do you give them a hug emoji or a "hey, I see you" kind of reaction? I do these things when I see those posts because what we put out comes back to us. Treat others how you want to be treated. That's not to say you haven't been doing this but if you haven't, maybe think about why - are you shy, judgmental, unsure how it will be received, or other motivations to keep scrolling?

I want everyone to have a great time in this or any fandom. This fandom in particular needs more positivity and inclusivity. I didn't get the nickname auntie for nothing. 💕 But it's never forced or fake. Come back to my inbox any time and as often as you like. We don't have to keep discussing this unless you want to! Is Aemond your favorite? Which episode do you dislike the most? Are you excited about something in particular for season 2? But there is no expectation or obligation.

[loupy-mongoose]

Do you think there's room on Tumblr for blogs that exist primarily to tell stories, be they fanfic or otherwise, outside of the medium of comics? Obviously comic posts (and art in general) will always have more of an audience than writing, but I'm curious about your perspective since you've got a very long-term story that you've been telling (and telling quite well, if I might add)

That last sentence depends on your definition of "very" long-term. X3

I'd say so, sure! I quite enjoy writing parts on Tumblr--It feels good to use, utilizing the colored text and knowing some of the little shortcuts.

(Accidental infodump ahead, lol)

The following only applies to PC users, as far as I'm aware, but I just took a look at this thing that I've known about for awhile (it appears to not be present on custom blogs);

If you click it, it shows you some of the keyboard shortcuts available on Tumblr.

Here's the list specifically for writing in a post. (Use Command instead of Control on Mac keyboards)

I just learned how to make tiny text aaaaaaaaa :3

Some of these I knew about beforehand, like the Italic, Bold, and Colored Text shortcuts. But some are new to me, like the tiny text above.

Some unlisted shortcuts that I abuse the heck out of:

Ctrl + X = Cut Ctrl + C = Copy Ctrl + V = Paste

And using these, you can bypass the "Inline Link" one above. If you copy a link, then highlight text in the post and Ctrl-V, it automatically creates a link for you on the highlighted word!

Well, I didn't mean for this to turn into another advice post, but here y'all go. I learned, and hopefully some of you all did to! ^w^

[pokemon-ash-aus]

I sent an anon ask because I don’t want your little brainwashed followers looking at my 18+ blog- I’m not sure why you tried to have a little “Aha gotcha!” moment. I’ve been following you for a while, and noticed a lot of your characters lack good writing and depth. I really wasn’t trying to be condescending, I was honestly trying to offer help. I apologize if it came off that way. Reading tone through text isn’t easy.

And again with the backhanded compliments, you're kind of an asshole arent you?

You've been following me awhile and yet my stories lack depth? Why are you even here then? Clearly, you don't care lmao.

And, uh? Aha? Gotcha! You literally sound like someone whose just mad that a character is a dick to be a dick. You know, it happens quiet a lot in fiction, hell even in real life lol.

Get off anon, stop being an asshole with these backhanded compliments, if you don't want to be bombarded, shoot me a DM instead. I dont ever post call outs cause its a shitty thing to do lmao.

And no, this isnt offering 'help'. Saying my writing is shit and equates to that of a middle schooler isn't "help" it's a superiority complex. Clearly you relate too much to Prismarine and that makez you uncomfortable.

Goodbye~
