this but it's chiyo and one of her fellow spiders

[quietlyblooms]

i'm pretty sure i've mentioned before how meeting kojirou again after so much time apart ends up being stressful but good for chiyo. he's able to clear the air and essentially put to rest the idea that chiyo ruined everything. it wasn't her fault that she wasn't in love at like?? 15. it wasn't her fault that he stopped contacting her. that detail is particularly dumb -- the dude lost his phone and had to get a new one with a new number, and part of me wants to change it to kojirou feeling embarrassed and blocking her. bc y'know... he was a dumb teenager whose pride and feelings were hurt :' )

i think it would make their second meeting more interesting bc while her rejection hurt him, it didn't ruin everything. had he not moved away, maybe ko would have tried harder to mend things, but he just didn't see a point. he still cared about her and still does. if anything, his own feelings got in the way of their friendship, and i think that would make a greater impact on chiyo.

i also like the idea that chiyo meets kojirou again while switching publishers. maybe her current publisher is bought out? merges with another? something like that, but either way, they're both deep into their careers and full-fledged adults. she feels terribly silly, but her first relationship still affects her to this day; were i writing this as a full-blown story, i think ko would either be 1. the main love interest, and clearing the air takes forever as well as them getting together, or 2. the last push chiyo needs to finally pursue the person she's currently in love with, and clearing the air happens relatively quickly.

but i'm not writing it like that, so it's more like... i'd rather use him at an opportune moment if my writing partner would like me to. you see, i live for the drama B) asdfg seriously, i want to use ko as a narrative tool, letting him give the other muse insight to chiyo's experiences ( bc like hell she's speaking up about her rough childhood ) or having him tell chiyo she's being ridiculous for being so skittish about dating. that sort of thing.

keep in mind chiyo and ko, whether they talk everything out or not, become close friends after reconnecting, so regardless of his narrative function, he's present in her life. i wanna make that more apparent, and i'd love to write him as a guest muse here and there. just! i basically wanna expand more on chiyo's story!! and include my writing partners in that!! sometimes i just forget or have no idea how to bring it up bc like :' )) not everyone wants to essentially write a full-blown story with you :' ))

can i ask where from the middle east ur from? so cool to see other ME artists like me!!! ofc you dont have to answer if youre umcomfy! have a nice day asdfg

i am iranian. it's kind of sad how bad i am at being farsi, though. you can really only tell because i have a fat nose and thick black hair. it makes those dumb groucho glasses practically useless to wear. otherwise i am indistinguishable from your average white joe. i can speak farsi but terribly. don't even bother asking me to read it! ha ha.

anyways, it's really nice to see other middle eastern artists too. especially since there's barely any in the homestuck fandom. i know maybe three.

[spacerangersam]

idk if im dumb, but why do you write asdfg? is it like a very uniform keysmash?

yeah it is, it just looks weird to me if i don't do it exactly that way for some reason

[sakuraspell]

I've got the terrible, TERRIBLE idea to call one of my new OCs Mi Chi (as in "michi", how we call cats in latam asdfg, I don't know if they'll be tied to cats *at all*, and I'll probably look for an interesting meaning to the hanzi but HEY)....

I shouldn't be allowed to name OCs, I always end up naming them dumb stuff asdfg

First Xiao Miaomiao (little Meow meow)

Now Mi Chi

[fatelcved]

going insane bc i'm thinking of chiyo stubbornly denying that she wants her partner's affections despite clearly making eyes at them a second ago; chiyo failing at holding back a smile bc she knows exactly how she's affecting her partner and can't play dumb to save her life; chiyo boldly making a suggestive comment and staring straight at her partner, practically daring them to do something about it; chiyo being the biggest frikkin brat and pushing her partner's buttons bc she really does wanna see what'll happen; i'm thinking of chiyo simply being so silly and chaotic and i'm saying both sorry and you're welcome to all of my ship partners ASDFG

Yes, he was fully aware what he had said was stupid but even for him, the on-going silence with the agent was tiring. He didn’t work with others so this was a very different type of environment. Huffing, he looked at her, “are you talkin’ about Tinker Bell?” an eyebrow quirked, “I was just tryin’ to make conversation, just in case we work together again...”

Pei Ming, whenever Hualian do the spiritual power borrowing thingy, be like:

The inspiration for this is under the cut asdfg (I’m so sorry 🙈)

// if i was to, say bring this blog back with a small selection of muses that I love and miss, would that be a terrible idea? Asking for a friend..

The demon is just watching her, silently admiring how she looks when she's focused on drawing. He had promised to stay out of her but he can't help it. "Hey Chiyo." She's only given those words, enough to catch her attention and gaze, but that's it. He moves quickly, leaning down to place a soft kiss upon her lips. It's quick, barely lasting a couple of seconds before he breaks it. Yet he's slow to pull away, only blinking at her as he processes what he's actually just done. "Sorry. You just... You looked really pretty."

unprompted | @cursedblessed kisses chiyo!

she doesn't usually have anyone over when she's working. it's just too easy to be distracted, to procrastinate. and she'd like to say that having james beside her is different, that she's completely focused and not at all bothered by the gaze she feels upon her face. she'd like to say that she isn't embarrassingly aware of the warmth just a few inches away from her and that she hasn't thought about scooting closer. she'd like to say that she's comfortable as can be, but it just isn't true ( she thinks too much, puts too much effort into pushing the thoughts down and out of sight ).

she responds to her name much too quickly, she thinks -- or, rather, she would have thought so if not for the lips that gently press against her own. it's chaste, fleeting, but her heart jumps all the same. she stops breathing all the same. she stares up at james all the same, brow furrowed and lips slightly parted.

sorry. you just... you looked really pretty.

anxiety flares to life in chiyo's chest even as butterflies flutter inside her stomach ( or is that anxiety, too? ). she breaks eye contact, gaze falling to james' mouth and then finding a spot off the the side to focus on instead. " you could've just said so, " chiyo utters, and she wants it to sound much more casual than it does. the way she says it makes it sound like she's asking a question. why did you kiss me? what does this mean?

she should ask him plainly. she shouldn't hope james will understand what she isn't saying, but the closest chiyo can get is, " you don't normally kiss your friends to compliment them. "

The wrong way to go about it:

Yeah i feel like youve drawn yourself in a vest? Im not sure that could have been something else you drew

I didnt even think of how they are made different I was so swept up at the inaccuracy of it

And thank you! I do like those socks, they sold them during pride month in one shop (not very common in our conservative ass country) and when we got them this year again bc they were really good and my mum legit said "Ive been looking for them every time we came here ever since we got them and they never had them till now, idk why!" and I was like mummy. you- you really-? dont? know? shes not even conservative just totally clueless XD

I also thought that cardy was so nice and she just looked good? idk w/ these people

(sorry for the very late reply, went on holiday and couldn't get wifi on my laptop)

i definitely drew one of my ocs, moth, in a vest/outfit i owed so it was probably that

understandable, that was all i thought when i first saw it

asdfg, that's kinda cute. my mum also got mine funnily enough for my birthday, and told me she specifically asked the cashier if they were pride merch before buying them so all i can imagine is her going up to the till to ask if they are indeed gay socks asdfg

yeah like, i understand having your own specific taste in clothes, but like, that doesn't mean you have to hate what other people are wearing? like, i don't ever plan to wear a dress ever again but I'm not about to go online and act like all dresses are awful. i know you have to make a living somehow, but idk. it's still dumb to me

I had been SO down and anxious about a certain thing regarding my friendships for a while now. It was such a dumb little thing but it hit me SOOO dang hard and it made me super sick for most of October (and slightly less sick for November and December, but still not well) just by remembering it. It made me hate something that I really loved and resent my friends a lot too, and that hurt extra hard because I don't want to resent them not for such a trivial thing! but it hurt me! and made me feel awful with myself when I already have a flimsy self-esteem. One of my friends did reach out to give me comfort and that helped me a lot to not be worse than I was but maaan it had persisted and still hurt every time I thought about it.

Anyway, today another friend came to me to talk about it with ideas so we could do things together. I don't know how to explain it without giving away what my dumb friendship hurt is asdfg BUT! they made me feel extremely included and loved, and that fixed so much of what was going on with me regarding this whole thing ;w; I'm even excited about the thing that was giving me so much anxiety! we are together! we have our lil secret plans! our shenanigans! Now I have something to look forward to!

I'm legit about to cry. I was feeling so abandoned? I didn't think anyone would care to go so far to make me feel included as they did :'). Their plan may not go as well in the end, but we'll still stick together and try to make it work. And even if it doesn't... at least now I know I have someone I can count on for this and that we will certainly keep being a team no matter what ;w;

Power of friendship saved me etc.etc

i mentioned this in the tags of a post before, but ciaran is definitely the kind of person who acts dumber/more ignorant than he really is. i mean he is?? young and kinda dumb sometimes asdf but he notices and understands more than he lets on when it comes to dynamics between people, how people portray themselves vs. how they really are, etc. he's just learned to pretend that he doesn't from his time at social events held at the manor. it's typically better that people don't know that you know... what you know asdfg

he tries to play the dumb card on kaiya and cyrillo sometimes and it never works :' ) they know good and well that he knows that the duchess is having an affair with the lord of some obscure land and that he just nearly exposed her to make her squirm for saying something catty to kaiya. he's in trouble ( but not that much bc cyrillo approves actually )!!
