How to make a romance story:
Braid it.
Each of your characters should have their own lives, wants, desires, etc going on that intersect often. They each have a different plotline of their own going on. THEN you have the romance plotline weaving between their two lives.

let me cook. picture me this.
we're about 12-14 months into hermitcraft season X and people's seasons are starting to wind down. finishing touches on megabuilds, games are being played and episodes are mostly spent with the hermits just screwing around for fun, (snails, gigacorp, cleos story for their base, etc. are all wrapping up)
however, one thing that has been prevalent throughout the entire season, so much more so than seasons' past, was the fact it seemed it was always raining. not just little in-game showers that lasted maybe 20 minutes no, i'm talking rain that would last hours, days even! and this has been very notable with multiple hermits addressing it in their videos and not being able to get around filming during the times when the sun was out, because it never lasted too long.
anyways, this doesn't matter that much, and many hermits learn to enjoy the rain! gem's trident shop ends up selling out quick as people realize riptide 3 tridents are much more efficient for elytra travel compared to rockets, and with the right shader packs many are able to make their videos more atmospheric and ✨aesthetic✨. so overall, the rain isn't a huge issue, just a minor inconvenience.
until the river starts flooding.
it's inconspicuous at first. very few hermits have builds that are right at sea-level so even fewer even notice any huge change. plus, the water only rose by one block so who cares. days pass by, then a couple weeks, no change, no worries. then it rises again. again, only by a block, but now the waves are starting to lap at the foundation of some houses, shorelines and property-lines becoming closer to being one and the same. now, while not too fussed, some hermits are starting to become slightly paranoid about the water.
the next water rise comes quickly, mere days after the last. still one block but now the hermits are taking quick notice. the race to high ground is swift, many building new bases on nearby mountains, other more dedicated hermits moving their entire bases up onto stilts to avoid their beautiful builds being drowned by the ever-expanding ocean deep. and the water keeps rising.
redstone farms are destroyed, the shopping district has become a capitalistic lost city of atlantis, grian and gem are unsurprisingly thriving in their new aquatic environment. the only safe dry areas are the nether and the end, because how would you flood the void.
we've reached the near end of the season, the sea expanding out for thousands of miles, as far as the eye can see, with the tops of mountains having become islands, sanctuaries from the deep unknown blue of the ocean. grian, gem, impulse, skizz, scar, joel and mumbo all sit on what used to be magic mountain, now just a few blocks above sea-level, looking out across the endless ocean skyline through the near eternal rainstorm.
"grian," mumbo begins. "yes?" grian sighs, tired and weather-beaten from the endless downpour.
"is the ocean big?"

Just Overblot!Yuu Thoughts
While I’m all for the angst potential of Yuu/MC overblotting due to the stress and resentment brought on by Crowley and the students putting their own trauma and bs onto this poor, magisless human stuck in another land.
I still can’t get the image of an all-powerful Yuu, dripping with blot and eyes filled with fire and rage just staring down the whole of NRC, rivaling even Malleus’ own blot, while everyone can only stare on in shock and concern because their magic appears useless against the now ink-stained Yuu/MC.
And Yuu/MC just smirks, knowing they can now have their own tantrum moment to let it all out, and screeches with satisfied glee:
“MY TURN ASSHOLES!!!”

ive been having mothman shigaraki brainrot for the longest time. i reread the asylum and the brood DAILY. would you ever consider making a part 3 where shig and the reader raise their kids but shig is like it’s not enough and wants to give her more kids?
Oh wow, thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed those two so much. Not gonna lie, Mothman Shigaraki remains one of my favorite things I’ve done. Honestly though, I don’t really have any plans for a part 3. If an idea ever strikes me that isn’t a retread of the first two parts, then maybe…but for right now that’ll stay a two parter.

TWO BIG DISCLAIMERS HERE:
1! Ofc you can draw him, but please do research on Tourette's before attempting to depict his Tourette's!
This is in order to avoid stereotypes and misconceptions.
2! Please don't ship him with other Sanses!
Sorry, this is just a personal comfort thing. You can ship that stuff in your head or in private spaces with friends, just not in public please, and don't let me know about it. ^^; (Plz it would make me very uncomfortable.)
Now that that's out of the way, look! It's him! :D I'm so exited to share this. I love him sm already. ;v; I've wanted to post this so bad the last couple of days, but I had to finish it first lol.
For anyone who doesn't know, I have Tourette's. Most of the tics I give him are ones I have or have had before. (Any others are one's I've heard of/seen from other ppl.) :> Btw, he's Tourette's Awareness color coded, and the ribbon embroidered on his jacket is the Tourette Syndrome ribbon. :D (Never realized before that my theme colors that I use everywhere are so close to the Tourette's Awareness color and that makes me very happy.)
I hope ppl like my silly lil neurospicy Sans. (Especially anyone else who might also have Tourette's.) ;v;
