imo they should teach classes & do exercises in grade school (and college) on human accessibility / empathy / awareness & im not joking they need to conduct this with adults, too. maybe continuing ed or something. just a personal example: I dislocated and smashed my shoulder in a biking accident last week. it has been **infinitely more difficult** to do mundane tasks with one arm, because the entire world is based off the assumption that most people have two working arms list of mundane tasks include: 1. opening pill bottles 2. cooking 3. taking out the trash 4. video games (I literally cant play anything unless it can be done w/ one hand which isnt many lol) 5. texting / using my phone 6. getting dressed 7. getting in / out of the shower 8. cutting up fruit / vegs etc 9. opening plastic packages 10. getting up from a lying down position 11. safely exercising 12. opening cans (if it doesnt have a tab for me to open it w/ im fucked bc I cant operate a can opener with one arm lol) 13. sweeping / mopping 14. doing the dishes (if I didnt have a dishwashing machine in my apartment during this shit........................ fuck me. awful) 15. opening doors 17. drying my hands with a manual roll of paper towels 18. toilet paper 19. standing on the train / bus 20. grocery shopping 21. sleeping comfortably 22. doing shots / injectable medication on myself 23. opening single use eye drop vials 24. using nail clippers and i'm probably missing a lot more bc like. i'm not kidding at all when I say literally every aspect of my life is way harder now i'm not a stranger to chronic pain / illness, but having my shoulder & arm immobile for the next few weeks really has me thinking hard about accessibility. more so than usual. and it's incredibly evident and eye opening just how fucking hostile our day-to-day is to disabled & chronically ill people. I think like. perhaps if in grade school we did something as simple as putting an extra shirt / band / whatever to keep someone's dominant arm down from being used, and then encouraged people to interact with their environments as normal throughout the day-- it would be incredibly eye opening to them as well. and perhaps we could instill more understanding & begin to shift focus to more accessible standards universally it's a simple exercise. but its an effective one. you can try it for yourself and see.

reflecting on 2023, thoughts for 2024, long personal post
How would I sum up 2023? Well, it's certainly been productive. Securing a permanent position at a university I adore is unreal, and I still subconsciously assume there's been a mistake and they'll fire me any day now. After what was essentially 7 years of precarity, having professional stability is absolutely wild. I love my job, I love my students, I love my colleagues, and it's insane to me that I seem to have actually "made it" professionally.
My second book is coming out with a Big Publisher and that's very nice too. I don't have much emotional attachment to that project, but it took a lot of work and I'm satisfied that it is reaching its appropriate conclusion. I will make, I am sure, zero money out of it, but that's academic publishing for you lol
I gave my first keynote paper at a (cute, small) conference, so that was also a milestone. I also organised a very successful conference in which like 1/4 of the speakers cited my work, which was absolutely surreal and made me want to disappear into the ground.
I made a huge amount of progress on my novel, it's pretty much finished, and my one real resolution for 2024 is to make a proper effort to get it published. I'll wait until my academic book is out to start that process, but that's the one resolution I'm setting for myself. I don't know if I'll have any luck (it's not exactly a book with mass appeal) but I want to at least give it a shot.
Healthwise, well. It's been a ride. A good ride, but a ride nonetheless. I switched medications for my chronic illness, coming off a really major one and getting onto a much milder one, as I've been basically asymptomatic. This is good news all round: I've adapted well to the new meds, and I don't have to deal with all the nasty side effects of the old meds (they fuck you up long term). The main problem I have now is that I can't drink much alcohol, but that's a small price to pay for good health.
But one side effect of the medication was weight gain. I gained around a stone after I'd been on it for a year but I figured that was just "not being in your early 20s anymore" weight gain. Turns out nope! I haven't weighed myself lately but I have visibly lost a lot of weight and it's a little disconcerting to be suddenly, well, very skinny again. I look much younger and smaller. It's not bad, it's just a stark difference to adjust to and not something I was expecting to happen in my 30s.
I've also adjusted my hormone regimen. I don't have any long term plans (i never do lol) but I've been enjoying playing more with feminine presentations. I'm just, comfortable with my body and happy with who I am. How about that!
Mental healthwise, hoo boy. Let's address my being cursed by an ancient amulet and becoming crushingly obsessed with the fictional villain of The Hunger Games. I haven't spoken about this on here but The Shivering Season is significantly informed by my own experiences with different forms of abuse and mental health problems, and I have been processing a lot while writing it. Sometimes I've had anxiety attacks while writing, which never happens to me! There was a point before Christmas I was having anxiety attacks at random everyday, just hanging out watching TV, because it seems I was bringing so much stuff to the surface. And I seem to have worked through some things, because the intrusive sexual abuse thoughts/fantasies I have experienced compulsively for, idk, 15+ years have gone. Completely gone. Really, really weird! I need to go back to therapy about this but I just don't know how to explain "I became obsessed with The Hunger Games and now I have 70% less trauma" in a normal way.
And I have been extremely manic these past 2 months. That is probably obvious from how I've been posting, but jesus christ. I wake up at 5am, I fall asleep at 11pm (and as someone who historically needs 8-9 hours every night, this is significant). I write thousands of words almost every day. I am generally inclined to periods of mania, but this is extremely intense and it has lasted since the start of November. I'm scared of crashing, both because this hyperproductivity is giving me a lot of positive brain chemicals and because I don't know what kind of person I'll be if it goes. Will the intrusive thoughts come back? I don't want them to! I've been very happy without them!!
And that's the conclusion, really: I've had a very happy year. I'm mistrustful of happiness, but I am still happy. I don't know what to expect of 2024, but I am optimistic, and content, and marvelling at in what a good place I'm in now compared to how I was.
Happy new year!

“We have got to find a new dinner spot” Amy whispers to Jake across the table who’s giggling.
“Aw but I like Sal’s” He whispers back, their chins nearly touching the table as they duck from view.
“Probably on us that we assumed Gina and Charles wouldn’t come here” Jake continued with a shrug of his shoulders.
“Yeah, that’s definitely on us. What do we do?” Amy asked anxiously.
“What do you mean?”
“They’re here, we’re here, they don’t know about us. What do we do?”
“Sneak out the side door and pretend we were never here?” Jake suggested with a mischievous twinkle in his eye.
“Sure, let’s do it” Amy agreed, a small smile returning to her face.
The two of them got up quickly, Jake grabbing Amy’s hand and dragging her out of the diner quickly behind him. She had her bag slung over her shoulder and was carrying her scarf, not having had a moment to put it on yet.
Once they were out the door and walking down the street the two of them laughed as Amy finally wrapped her scarf around her neck. Jake took Amy’s arm and linked it with his, holding her close as they walked down the snow lined streets.
“We’ve gotta find somewhere else to get dinner now” Jake brought up after they’d been walking for a few minutes with no real destination in mind.
“How would you feel about pizza?” Amy asked with a smile, knowing exactly how Jake would feel about pizza.
“Dumb question Ames, I know just the place”
He redirected them, crossing the street and turning a corner while Amy simply followed his lead. Once there they ordered and got their pizza, they laughed about their escape from Sal’s again and Jake filled Amy in on the ongoing Sasha drama after she overheard Gina mention it.
They finished their pizza and hung around in the shop for a little while longer, ignoring their phones and everything outside the door. As far as Jake was concerned, right now the world existed in the pizza shop, sitting across the table from him.
It was only when the owner of the shop politely told them he was going to be closing soon did they leave – leaving behind a nice tip for having stayed so long – walking arm in arm slowly back towards campus under the light of the street lamps. Amy could tell Jake was trying to delay saying goodbye to her, and if Amy was honest with herself she didn’t want to say goodbye either.
They stopped at the usual split in their path, this section of the sidewalk held so many memories and emotions that Amy couldn’t believe it had all happened in less than a year. The two of them hugged for probably too long, they were clingy for a few day-old relationship but Amy never wanted it to stop.
“Come back to my dorm with me?” Jake asked her quietly, breath brushing against Amy’s ear in a way that made her skin tingle, “If you want” he added, giving her an out.
“I want to”
It was an easy decision, and one she didn’t regret at all.

Cameron: Hahaha okay
Ferris: should we have some fun with them?
Cameron: We absolutely should
-
Jake made his way to the library happily, lighter than air and excited to see Amy again. When he walked into the library she hadn’t noticed him yet but as soon as Jake saw her he couldn’t stop the smile spreading from ear to ear.
Amy finally noticed him as he approached the table, a matching smile gracing her face, and it took everything in Jake to hold back kissing her as soon as he was sat down next to her. They kept their conversation casual and work focused, it felt like before they were together when the two of them were dancing around whatever was happening between them.
After some subtle searching of the library by taking looks around at random intervals he was able to spot Gina, Rosa, and Charles at a table nearby. They were pretending to be engrossed in one book between the three of them and doing a bad job, Rosa was clearly uninterested but there anyway.

Ferris: three musketeers sitting at a table near the computers Ferris: doing a terrible job at hiding
Cameron: I’m not even surprised Cameron: What did Gina expect to discover?
Ferris: probs us together
Cameron: Nosiest friends ever
Ferris: haha tell me about it
-
“This is boring, they’re clearly not together” Rosa was annoyed.
“But what if they are and they’re just playing it down?” Gina argued back.
“If they were together we’d know by now” Charles now joined in.
“God this is ridiculous” Gina threw her arms up in frustration, “I just need them to kiss or something”
“Go ask them” Rosa suggested slightly sarcastically.
Gina fixed Rosa with a look that made Charles want to shrink in on himself, feeling grateful he hadn’t crossed either of them.
“We could just wait for them to tell us?” He suggested in hopes of stopping Gina and Rosa’s staring match.
“Fine” Gina agreed begrudgingly.
Gina was the one to get up first, followed by Rosa and then once they started walking away Charles quickly followed, not wanting to be left behind.
-
Jake saw movement out of the corner of his eye, catching his attention he looked up to see Rosa, Gina and Charles all making a hasty exit from the library and he smiled knowing he and Amy had been able to bore them into leaving.
Once their friends had left the library he leaned over and gave Amy a quick peck on the cheek, startling her out of her concentration where she looked at Jake with surprised.
“What abo-“ She began before Jake cut her off.
“They just left”
Amy let out a laugh before placing a hand on the side of Jake’s face, he leaned into it with a content sigh. Jake then reached up to lightly grab Amy’s wrist, keeping her hand in place as he twisted his head to plant another kiss on her palm.
“You can’t distract me like that” Amy said quietly, trying to be teasing but sounding more breathless.
“Sorry” Jake had apologized but didn’t sound one bit sorry, returning to his work with a satisfied smirk.

Queen G: sasha is having a party on sat so im absolutely going Queen G: anyone else in??
Mr Grapes: Oh definitely! Mr Grapes: Do you know if she invited Sam or Matt?
Queen G: she invited both of them and its most of the reason i wanna go
Mr Grapes: It’s self sabotage at this point
RoRo: ill go if it means watching sashas life implode lol
Pineapples: ill be there
Four Eyes: Yeah I’ll go too
Queen G: im so proud of all of u Queen G: so like are you guys team sam, team matt, or team sasha
Charles: I’m team Anne! She’s been messed around
Queen G: so true charles
-
It was the first time they’d hung out as a whole group since Jake and Amy had gotten together and hiding their relationship was more difficult than Jake had anticipated. He wanted to hold her hand in the back of the uber and put his arm around her shoulders as they walked into the party but couldn’t do any of it.
That was until they split up after playing some small drinking games together, Jake immediately asked Amy if she wanted to dance and she couldn’t have said yes quick enough. He assumed his friends were off finding the drama, Gina and Rosa probably on the hunt for people to flirt with while Charles waited for Genevieve to arrive soon.
Once he and Amy had reached the dance floor her pulled her close, bodies pressed up against one another – he wasn’t wasting a single moment keeping her at a distance. They danced together in the way Jake wished they could’ve on New Years, and it was the most fun he’d had at a party in a while.
So much fun that he leaned down to kiss Amy hard, brain slightly foggy after the alcohol they’d had so far, but pleased when Amy leaned into it. The kiss became intense as they abandoned any illusion that they were dancing.
Finally Jake pulled away with heavy breaths, leaning down to whisper into Amy’s ear.
“Bathroom”
She nodded furiously and followed closely behind when Jake grabbed her hand and dragged her away from the dance floor.

authors note: Oh my god, I can't believe its all done and over.
This is the longest piece of writing I've done so far, what started out as a silly little text fic idea that I wanted to do just to 'not waste a concept' turned into something that I've loved writing and am beyond proud of. I'm sorry there was a bit of a wait between chapters in the middle there but I hope the speedy release of the ending made up for it! Thank you so so much to everyone who commented and left kudos, you guys kept me motivated and excited to write this fic. Shout out to my friends both irl and online (none of whom will see this lol), you guys consistently provide me wonderful content to use in my writing lol (for this chapter it was: "wouldn't you like to know, soup boy")
Thanks again for reading my lil fanfic, I hope you enjoyed it <3

Welcome to the Akatsuki! - 219 (Naruto)
5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?
As often as possible. THere are times when I'm not doing so well and feel a little jaded and then I might just "mark them as read". But usually I leave them in my inbox for a long time before I do that to find it in me to reply. I want to reply to all of themf or sure.
6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
At the end of "MIrror Image" , that I set up like a Soulmate Au, Obito is dead like he is in canon. wampwamp

Nope! I have gotten criticim very early on for a fic that I instantly delted and its been real quiet sinc then.
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
Oh yeah, a lot lately. I am not a kinky writer (I also dont really read it), so probably the... uh.. "vanilla" kind.

I wrote a Naruto x JJk crossver which blows me away at how popular it is. It was crazy fun so it doing well is a nice cherry on top.

I flip flop around depending on hyperfixation, currently nothing makes me tingle with love as much as Fairy Tail's Jellal and Erza
15. What's a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
Started a reader insert story for Buddha from Record of Ragnarok after @kankuroplease and me endlessly talked about how hot he was, but I dont think that will ever lead anywhere lol
16. What are your writing strengths?
Hm. Set ups?
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
My dialogues is usally pretty boring. Also I cant do action well at all.
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?
Dont think Ive ever done that, though I can tell you that writing stories in German feels so hard now that I've written so much English.
19. First fandom you wrote for?
When I was 13 I was really into german boybands but if you mean fandom in the more international sense then I started writing Naruto fic in 2008.
20. Favorite fic you've written?
Giving you 3 for each of the main fandoms that matter:
Fairy Tail: Innocence dies screaming
Naruto: Hymn for the missing
JJK: The Six Eyed
Both latter two are rather old and probably could use a rewrite, but I very much love them for how they came to be.
I havee nobody to tag so ill taaaaaaaag @butter--peanut aand @akamikazae

Draft Day: Arena Valiant + LGS Frogs
After some Sealed to get familiarity with the set, it’s time for my first Bloomburrow Draft. The Arena draft is a bit different than in-person because you aren’t going to play against folks you draft with, so while you need to see lines to make a deck, you don’t need to be concerned with passing them something nice.
I’ve done a few drafts on Arena and struggled mightily for the first few. I think I was focusing too much on ‘creature types’ rather than general synergies, but then drafted a sweet Boros deck that went 7-1 with my only loss coming due to land/land/land draws down the stretch.
Hopefully that bit of practice prepared me well as I rolled into my first live draft of the set.
I opened with a Dreamdew Entrancer for my Pack 1, Pick 1 and started heading towards frogs, and to my surprise absolutely no one was looking at frogs. I got passed every frog and every piece of synergy the deck could have. I put together my pile and curve as follows, hoping to get a better showing than my prerelease where I mixed frogs and rabbits.
Match 1: L 1-2
Opponent was on Boros valiant. Game 1 was probably my best game of the day; the pieces came together so well and I drew so many cards that my opponent could only hope that I would deck myself. Game 2 on the draw and her deck came out blazing; way too fast with pump valiant triggers forcing me into chump blocking and eventually taking the loss. Game 3 I got completely flooded, drawing out 11 of my 16 lands and sitting there as she slowly chipped away for the win.
With the card draw in my deck, between matches I decided to drop down to 15 lands and bring in an Eluge, the Shoreless Seas from the sideboard.
Match 2: W 2-1
Game 1 and somehow I got land flooded again; the few pieces I was able to get out just weren’t able to play off each other and I lost to his Golgari deck. Game 2 felt much more like Match 1, Game 1. I got draws early and often from Pond Prophet and Bellowing Crier, keeping his board empty with Run Away Together, and then attacked through for the win. Game 3 was super close where he had the early and mid-game advantage, taking me down to 4 life with fliers and drains. I was able to stabilize and build up a board with stuns and Reach. The turning point was when he made an ill-advised full out attack, sensing the tide turning, when he should’ve stayed patient. He killed my Dreamdew Entrancer but at a massive cost to his board. I was able to bring in a Splash Lasher with its Offspring the next turn to stun his other creatures and get through for the match win.
Match 3: W 2-0
Needed a win to get a Play Booster. In Game 1 I went off early bouncing frogs and his creatures but he was able to even up a bit until we were both out of cards and top-decking. Luckily I drew out a few more creatures ahead of him and got the win. Game 2 he had a wide board of rabbits as well as Ygra, Eater of All. I had to chump for a turn but then was able to stun it for three turns with my Dreamdew Entrancer which gave me time to catch up. Then I drew into full blink and tap synergies with Lilysplash Mentor and Skyskipper Duo to keep Ygra, now a 20/20, locked down along with the rest of his board to win the game.
Overall: 2-1-0 (5-3-0; 5th Place out of 8)
The place made no difference in prize structure but I was a little disappointed to see I ended up in 5th considering 2nd place had the same record. That just comes down to tiebreakers, and having lost my first match set me on a course for a low Opponents’ Win %.
Reflection: Nice to bounce back (see what I did there?) after losing Match 1. Frogs can absolutely blast off, but if you get interrupted you have to find card draw to bring it back together. Otherwise you’ll just be pulled into chump blocking and won’t be able to break through. The deck seems like it can be amazing (and is for sure fun) in the Limited environment but I’m doubtful it has full legs (pun intended) for Standard. If you get passed some early frogs in your draft and Simic looks open, give the deck a try!

6. what's the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
ummm my Curses series was more one-shots without actual plot.. and as many of those were shibuya or post shibuya they were all pretty angsty beifbekdjeodk. i wouldnt say any have this kind of ending because then there would have to be a story. but i would say the saddest one ive written is 'keep running for the sink but the well is dry'
7. what's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
'light of a new morning' for sure. this one actually had some kind of development i would say. also i have bias because this is one of the only three ive written that dont totally suck. though the tsumiki wip im working on for sure will have an even happier ending

im not popular enough for that lol

there is a shokohime wip i started two or so years ago about shoko's backstory and the developing of their relationship up until the present but at some point there was a research aspect to it and i thought 'ill do it later'. and then i never did 💀 id like to continue it but i still lowk think it will sit there.. i dont have enough motivation to do research ekdbfkenfkdk
there is also a trigun one i started, it was kind of plotless, just vibes, but i wasnt able to get their dialogue right and idk. maybe when i get into a trigun phase again ill find inspiration and continue
16. what are your writing strengths?
i think im good at describing a scene and emotions. im good at making this kind of poetry
17. what are your writing weaknesses?
im soooo shit at dialogue and even when im not shit at it i keep overthinking it and ruin it anyway lol
18. thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?
i mean ive done it (but i orphaned those... lol) and im doing it now for the tsumiki wip so its fine i guess. but id only do it for languages that i know and if not, after profuse grammar checking. also ofc it has to make sense within the context of the story
19. first fandom you wrote for?

It’s been awhile...
This will be quite the read, so I’ll keep it all under the cut, with a slight trigger warning. I am talking about my personal life and what I’ve been dealing with. Thank you for being understanding and taking the time to read this post. I love you all. ♡
✧・゚: *✧・゚:* *・゚✧*:・゚✧
I know none of you were probably expecting this. I mean, to be completely honest, I wasn’t expecting this either. However, after still getting many messages in my inbox and love on the content I’ve posted, even though I haven’t been around in... roughly two plus years, I wanted to make a post/announcement for everyone. This is to kind of explain what’s been going on in my life and what my plans are for this blog. Thank you all so much for the continued love and support during my absence.
So, to start off. Why have I been gone so long? Well, that’s a very, very long story that involves a lot of trauma and my personal life, so I’ll keep it as brief as possible. I dealt with a string of abusive relationships, many different jobs, moving several times (and by “several times”, I mean that I moved about 7 or 8 times within a year, including between different states), losing friends, trying to better my health, re-discover who I am, and so much more...
I’m not going to get into the details of my relationships or anything like that, but I would like to briefly talk about my health. I’ve finally gotten the chance to see doctors to get confirmed diagnoses, rather than simply wonder if I have something or not. As of right now, besides the mental illnesses I was already well aware of, I had a diagnosis that confirmed I have rheumatoid arthritis, or RA for short. For those of you that don’t know, it’s an autoimmune disease. I’ll post a link that will give you guys basic info about it so I don’t make this post even longer than it needs to be. To put it into simple terms, however, it’s a chronic autoimmune disease that mostly affects joints. RA occurs when the immune system, which normally helps protect the body from infection and disease, attacks its own tissues. The disease causes pain, swelling, stiffness, and loss of function in joints. Having a diagnosis is relieving but it’s also added a lot of stress to my life. I also have had 2 cancer scares now. The first scare (my lungs), which I got testing for, was clear. But now, on my second one (my thyroid), not so much. I have to wait a year to get retested to make sure nothing has gotten worse. It’s a lot, I know, but something I wanted to open up to you guys about.
Link: https://www.niams.nih.gov/health-topics/rheumatoid-arthritis#:~:text=Rheumatoid%20arthritis%20(RA)%20is%20a,loss%20of%20function%20in%20joints.
I also wanted to take the chance to reintroduce myself. I was still me before, but a lot of things about me were the choices of controlling ex’s, and not my own. So, hey there. My name is Stormi. I’m a 24 year old who is non-binary, born female, with no preference to pronouns. You can refer to me however you’d like, and I’ll be happy regardless. I enjoy listening to music, drawing, reading, writing, making crafts, playing video games, watching videos on YouTube, playing Dungeons & Dragons and so much more. It’s hard to encapsulate the person that I truly am over a post, but I still want to give you guys a little bit of an insight into who I truly am.
As for my plans on this blog... I’m not quite sure. I want to start writing and posting again, I do. But my health complicates that a bit. I think I will, but I won’t take it quite as seriously. What I mean by that is not that I won’t care, but I won’t be stressing myself out with it as much as I used to. I think I’m going to delete every single ask that I have in my inbox, re-work my character masterlist and a few other things and let you guys know when requests are open. When that happens, please feel free to request! Just be patient and give me some time to get to them. Also, in regards to NSFW content, I think the only thing I’m going to be accepting is probably headcanons. Don’t get me wrong, I like my smut just as much as the next person, but it’s really difficult for me to write it at times. I also worry that everything will end up being too similar.
Anyways, if you made it through this entire post, then thank you so much. It really means a lot to me. You all have been wonderful to me over the years, and I hope you all are excited about my gentle return to the world of tumblr. Even if you guys don’t have any requests, feel free to get into my inbox just to talk. As I’ve said before, my blog is a safe space for everyone. Thank you, I love you all :) ♡

20 questions for fic writers, tagged by @holdmecloser-gandydancer (thanks reese!) tagging @fexalted @3hobbitsinatrenchcoat @novantinuum and anyone else who wants to!
1. How many works do you have on AO3?
86, very soon to be 87!
2. What's your total AO3 word count?
397,102. my god.
3. What fandoms do you write for?
The majority (over half) of my total fics on AO3 are Gravity Falls, but my current passion right now is obviously TAZ Balance, which is a pretty close runner-up. TOH is a lot further behind, but I have at least one WIP I want to finish up early next year!
4. What are your top five fics by kudos?
Some Sunny Day (Gravity Falls), Tulip's Return (Infinity Train), Stan and Ford Vs. The Future (GF), Fateful Detours (GF/IT crossover), Missteps and Miscommunication (GF).
5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?
Usually, and especially when they give me a chance to infodump about the writing process! I just don't necessarily respond quickly lol
6. What's the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
In recent memory, it might be but the strange lights in the sky were shining (TAZ). I write more happy/bittersweet endings than sad ones, but that one... that one has one of my absolute favorite twists :)
7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
to eat from a poisoned plate (TAZ) is one that I almost didn't write a happy ending for, but I'm so glad that I did, because I go back and reread that one a lot, admittedly.
8. Do you get hate on fics?
Usually no more than annoying but generic "please update" comments, but back in the Gravity Falls fandom, there was this one person that you've probably heard of/encountered if you wrote a lot about Bill Cipher back in the day.
They were a guest account user who'd get so mad if you killed off Bill, to the point of making threats (albeit exaggerated, not really realistic ones), and also one time they told me I should go read a particular MLP fic and take inspiration from it in my own. Which, no shade against MLP, but as someone who's never been in that fandom, that's literally the funniest entitled comment I've received in my life.
9. Do you write smut?
Nope, but I do occasionally write characters being horny. There's a huge difference between those things for me, and that probably has everything to do with where I lie on the ace spectrum lmao
10. Do you write crossovers?
A couple times, though I used to be way more into them than I am now. There was the aforementioned GF/Infinity Train one, and my gateway into writing TAZ fic was actually a very silly "what if the Pines family were the protags of TAZ Balance" fic.
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Not to my knowledge, and fingers crossed it doesn't happen 🤞
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
Yes, a few times! My buddy @yourbonesarenowmycoat translated several of my Gravity Falls fics into Spanish back in the day, for one thing!
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
Nope!
14. What's your all-time favourite ship?
This should come as no surprise but it's Blupjeans forever and ever <3
15. What's the WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
Oh, god. Probably the one that I wrote like 9 chapters (out of 10 planned ones) to cope with being chronically ill and to convince myself to go to therapy, and then abruptly stopped writing when it was almost done because I figured out how to manage my chronic illness and soon after, started going to therapy. On the one hand, it would be tragic for it to never see the light of day, but on the other hand, it kinda... served its purpose for me already?
16. What are your writing strengths?
Fic as character study! Sometimes I set out with the goal of elucidating a particular theme or character motivation, and sometimes it just happens along the way, but I am a genius with regards to character analysis and my brain is galaxy and I'm not afraid to share it.
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
Dialogue is one thing for sure, I get a lot of compliments on it but it's also such a challenge for me. Possibly because I, personally, don't talk like a remotely normal human person irl. The other thing is brevity and killing my darlings — I literally can't count the number of times one of my fics exceeded the expected word count by orders of magnitude.
The aforementioned character study thing? Yeah, that's also a weakness, because a lot of my fics (even including some very, very long ones!) exist to explore themes I couldn't figure out how to word in a simple headcanon post. In fact, I'm probably gonna post a fic of that exact variety this weekend, lmao.
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?
Definitely not fluent enough in any language to do it on any larger scale, unless I get serious about learning Spanish again.
19. First fandom you wrote for?
Not on AO3, but in general, it was definitely Pokémon! I was writing time travel stories set in Sinnoh before Legends Arceus made it cool.
20. Favourite fic you've ever written?
As previously mentioned... probably "to eat from a poisoned plate". In the vaguest possible terms, learning to love cooking again in spite of some prior bad experiences has been a struggle for me, too, and I truly think that without having written that fic, I wouldn't be succeeding.
On a related note, I'm about to spend my afternoon making a blueberry pie.

7. Favourite works of all time excluding your own?
8. What do you like most about your own work?
19. Favourite character(s) to draw?
20. What works have you drawn fanart of?
5. every day im plagued with visions i never fulfill so im just gonna unload a bunch of them onto you : finishing that clingyduo animatic, finishing the sokeefe art, maybe?? drawing roman sanders again after so long just to see??, a like proper Big dsmp tribute piece but i dont really know what, figuring out my ctechno design & drawing more c!emeraldduo and cbedrockbros, FINALLY drawing ctntduo, and a bunch of other things
ALSO specifically ANIMATIC ideas here is a list of ones that have plagued my mind for some as long as two years : burning pile (mother mother) with c!crimeboys i have had this particular one on the brain since literally early 2021 i have every frame planned out in my mind but i just cannot seem to do it, jack's lament (the nightmare before christmas) with c!wilbur THIS ONE is pretty specific but Oh it could be so cool, rasputin with c!wilbur just to have some fun, they're only human (death note the musical but specifically this version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrZolM3uCds) with c!emerald duo, money money money (ABBA) with c!beeduo this one would be very silly just antics and ctubbo being a gold digger LMAO, hang on little tomato (pink martini) with c!crimeboys OH THIS ONE LET ME TELL YOU THIS ONE HAUNTS ME IT'S SO SWEET BUT ALSO SO SAD, and finally history has its eyes on you (hamilton) with pogtopia c!crimeboys obviously because i have the illness and i never left 2020 <3
6. this is mostly mcytblr artists and some of them havent even posted since like 2021 but to name a few @/pigsteprap @/copepods @/miniaturekeytar @/wolfythewitch @/birdiebrunch @/corph1a @/somedeimi and @/winter-mornings all have really really cool art you should check out ^__^
7. my brain is fried currently so normally i would make you a list but i can only think of like. monet's nymphéas which is basic yeah but i really really like 'em. also vermeer's milkmaid . also a lot of romantic art cause its my favourite :] but im just too tired to think of examples
and also a lot of the art of the people i just listed
8. oh this is hard i dont really. mhmmm. i guess i like? my colouring? idk man
19. ill let you take a wild guess on that one
20. oh god. well obviously dsmp. otherwise sanders sides, kotlc, warrior cats, harry potter (sorryyy haven't for years though), and probably others here and there but those were the main ones
anyway keep the artist asks coming guys i really like them cause they require like proper thinking more than the other silly asks (which are also cool !! dont get me wrong)
#THIS GOT LONG IM SORRY its been sitting for over a week#alex.rambles.txt#alex.asks.txt#if you ask me to talk about my animatic ideas i will just never shut up#mcyt

10) 1st day of 4th grade (he was bullying me for years, so i punched him square in the nose. He never bullied me again)
11) no, BUT im a hopeless romantic, so by the time you are reading this, my answer might have changed.
12) constantly... my sleep schedule sucks :)
13) only 2 people. My most recent ex, and the male responsable for half of my existance >:(
14) 5 people. My 3 besties from college, dude i talk to on occasion, and my cousin (see number 2, she lives over 1000 miles away from me)

16) rn, im upset. I might go over that more in another post, if i do ill link it here.
17) no
18) YES i realize they serve a good perpous to our ecosystem, i just wish they would do it somewhere else 😭
19) yes, to stop myself from going to southern michigan in january. Nothing good has come from that decision.
20) i dont remember where it was... it was a while ago anyways.
21) the same as they have been since i had surgery. Get up and walk around every little bit. Other than that, nothing. Maybe watch some lets plays of the new FNAF game since i cant afford a copy of my own :(

23) i got my ears pierced in december, but they healed up waaay sooner than they where supposed to so now i have 0. what a waste of money >:(

64) yea, cus i would rather punch them than kiss them tbh.
65) i am gonna change the word from sex to gender in this question just because it will be easier to answer. I have 1 male friend, and idk what i would do if he said he likes me tbh...
66) yee. Same dude as 65
67) last man i talked to was my dad, other than him, the friend i mentioned in the last 2 answers.

Ok so its 2 am and ive been thinking (recipe for disaster, i know) should I message the friend that kicked me from the group chat and blocked me?
('Read more' seperator in case you don't want to read about sappy stuff or give advice)
(Im going to spout a lot, classified as a vent post but i really want advice)
I'm thinking through it to figure it out and its not working so im gonna lay out the facts
(With complimentary + or - for decision)
We've been best friends for 2 years, friends for 5, and known each other for 7, and known of each other for 14.
Around 9/17 she began texing drier and responding less, the change is slow.
On 9/19 I said "Im ngl its 4 am and im scrolling throigh our messages trying to figure out if its just anxiety or we're getting more distant" she responded with "NOOOOOO!! DONT REREAD PAST MESSAGES PAST 8 PM!! YOUR LIFE IS IN GRAVE DANGEERR!!" Which is actually a direct copy paste of a message i sent to her about a similar situation.
On 9/20 we had 3 seperate long winded text conversations, and a 30 minute call, we have not called each other since.
On 9/21 she responded "with probably not today, sorry" after i asked if she wanted to get on and do anything, she then proceeded to message me about a million times over the following 4 hours, these conversations included a message i sent asking "Why dont you respond to my tiktoks. Do you hate me." (As a joke (i can see how it did NOT come off that way), however she had actually stopped responding to the videos i sent her about 3 days before. I sent many with no responses within those 3 days)
On 9/23 I messaged one with a photo asking to do a trio pfp (i did a few trio pfps with her and her boyfriend, then i started editing myself into two of their duo pfps as a running gag. Definitely stepped a line there it seems.) She didn't respond, so I stopped messaging her and sending tiktoks to give her a bit of space.
On 9/24 I sent a few messages, "I sent you so many videos in a row" she responded "ill watch them eventually" I responded "Just block me so my sufferijg can be ended" (as a joke, i felt our friendship was much more unshakeable than it was. I passed off most of these signs as anxiety.) I sent a few messages about games we both played recently, and the last message i sent was at 6:25.
An hour after this, She blocked me on everthing, and kicked me from the gc.
Ok so thats bassically everything that happened over the 5 days up until she blocked me, its a little crazy that im searching through it like this but for a 4 year long friendship it feels warranted
In general the day up until she blocked me i tried to probe about what was wrong in a comedic way, with deadpan affirming responses, or no response at all.
Even after running through it all, it still seems super mixed.
Only reason im debating messaging her at all is because
1. We were talking just an hour before, dryly, but definitely
2. I said "Just block me so my sufferijg can be ended" 2 hours before.
Both of those make this seem a little if not very impulsive, also, this feels like a boundaries issue, which can definitely be solved with proper communication and an open mind.
I also feel like i want to at least get to 'awkward..' terms with her, that way i can rejoin the gc with minimal violence/hard feelings
I can still message her on steam, which she didn't unfriend or block me on, even after I messaged her there. I've also been playing on steam over the 8 days since the blockening, so shes seen me get on (it gives a notif to all your active friends when you play a game) and still hasn't blocked me.
The message on steam was "I can take a hint, ill stop messaging you, but I'm still here, I'm still just a call away"
VERY cringe, but i was emotional. bite me.
So it might be weird to message her now and go back on that, especially if its on the same platform.... ugh....

ill have these questions answered as if danplan characters are answering them!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. What’s your favorite tickle tool? (added: to use against)

2. Favorite Ler? (Tag them if you dare~)
Annabelle: i don't know, its hard to choose...hmm ill say daniel, he can be a load of fun!
3. Favorite Lee? (Tag them to call them out~)
Stephen: keep this in between us, although its obvious, but its always gonna be hosuh
4. Opinion on blindfolds/restraints? Why or why not?
Jay: not into them, too much for me to handle
5. A spot that gets you squealing?
Hosuh: .... 0///0 umm, m-my neck....
6. How long do you estimate you could last before calling mercy?
jay: a short while probably, it doesn't take a lot, but if i was nervous before hand, then id call it before anything would even happen..*timid giggling*
7. Ever have tickle fantasies?
Stephen: ....no comment..
8. Why did you make your tickle blog?
ME: because i want to share my special interest combined with my favorite youtuber of all time, danplan! and hope that people will find it just as entertaining as me and a friend does! also because i wanna see danplan in a new light such as a wholesome topic, such as the TK community on tumbler, originally i was gonna have it happen in wattpad but found tumbler more interesting instead and had finally found my place here! im happy about it whole heartedly <3
9. Does anyone irl know of your interests?
ME: no, im way too uneasy about sharing it :(
10. Can you say the t-word?
Daniel, Stephen and Jay: yes.
Hosuh and Annabelle: no.
11. Verbal teases, yes or no and why?
Daniel: yes..no......maybe...
12. Upper body tickles or lower body tickles?
Hosuh, Daniel and stephen: upper body.
Jay and Annebelle: lower body.
13. Neck or ear tickles?
Jay: ears
14. Pinned on your back, or your stomach?
Stephen: its easier to shoot glares of hatred into the person who's torturing you on your back, back for sure.
15. What do you love about the lees you know?
Daniel: stephen and jay, they get annoyed with me everytime, i love their hatred haha
16. What do you love about the lers you know?
Hosuh: stephen told me to keep this a secret between us but im gonna break a promise just answer, he pampers me afterwards and gives most of the affectionate playful attention to me.
Annebelle: jay is very gentle with me when he knows that the moment calls for it and on the other hand we end up get in a game of cat and mouse, our fav part when were in a good mood, sometimes its a game of hide and seek <3
17. Feathers or Paint Brushes?
Daniel, stephen, jay and annabelle: feathers.
Hosuh: paint brushes, for art reasons.
18. How long have you known about your interests in the community?
ME: not too sure, probably over a year since i have been here for that long pretty much? thats my guess.
19. What’s your favorite way to be tickled? (As in provoked, teased into asking, etc.)
Annabelle, Stephen and Jay: provoked.
Hosuh and Daniel: teased through body language and facial expressions, its more tense that way.
20. Are you/Do you like Polite Lees or Bratty Lees? (Asking for tickles vs Pissing someone off for tickles)
Stephen: im obviously bratty, idiot *eye roll* but i do love to irritate hosuh every now and then *cocky smirk*
Hosuh: polite lees, even though stephen is cleary fun to tease when hes upset :)
Jay: bratty, too fun to pursue such as ann, sometimes i pursue her even when shes having a little bit of a bad day, just to lighten her mood.
(i did my best on this T-T)
