Ppl don't realize that if you want to write skk's dynamic properly, just picture a cat vs dog fiasco and run with that.
They are the definition of black cat and golden retriever energy. It's literally canon.
(Oda describes Dazai as a burnt black cat. Chuuya gets called a dog every other episode he's in. Asagiri isn't even trying to hide that fact.)
And while I think Chuuya's got more of a chihuahua energy than anything, it doesn't erase the original point of this being my go-to drive force whenever I write them.
Dazai's upset? Think of what your cat would do. Sulk and ignore, give you the silent treatment, either avoid you at all costs or confront you with bared claws and an intent to destroy, depending on the situation.
Chuuya feeling threatened? Let him growl or snarl, bare his teeth, lunge squarely at whoever's imposing the threat. Let him be possessive of who he's protecting, let him be vocal and the loudest person in the room.
What happens when a cat and a dog clash? Yeah, exactly. Disaster.
Yet at the end of the day, when their energies dissipate, you'll find them cuddling with each other, asleep with no care in the world, because they're together.
You're literally writing about a black cat and a ginger Chihuahua, skk writers!!!

I know this is random but reading your blog and seeing your art made me so motivated I made my 1st animation ever (not counting pixel art ones), after not drawing digitally in months and it looks kinda basic and it isn't colored but I made it and I'm really happy with it so I guess what I'm trying to say is thank you for motivating me to make digital art again! I hope you have a wonderful day/night :)
MKJSJWJW HI!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TELLING ME THATS GREAT!!! Animatics need time and patience so the fact you went straight for it is so cool!!!! I bet it looks lovely!
Hope you have the greatest day/night too!

(Sorry, as a crack alternative follow up to my last Destiny post)
Any of the Endless siblings: Destiny, can't you check your book about this?
Destiny: No, I can't.
Endless Siblings: Please!
Destiny, sighing: Fine.
Destiny, stands there with the book clearly closed and then looks back at them: Yep, nothing there.
Siblings: ...But, you didn't even open it.
Destiny: I'm sorry, are you the embodiment of destiny? Is this your garden? Do I come into your realm and tell you how your tools work???
Destiny, in a The Office style sidebar: There's literally nothing written in this book, and I have no idea how to work it. Honestly, I'm not even involved in the destiny of the universe. I just show up after things happen and say I knew they would happen. So far, no one's called me on it except for Delirium.

I really can't catch a break with strange events connected with the internet, huh
I blocked someone over a week ago (needed mental space to sort my already overwhelming anxiety), and later unblocked and followed back when I felt ready. But apparently this morning I found out that this person got somehow blocked by me again, when I did NOT do that...? I know Tumblr IS broken, but I never saw a glitch where it'd block random people? And why now, and why this person? I thought I'd die from how bad this piece of trash app embarrassed me with this one :/
But also long term mutuals probably remember the stories about me "sleep blogging" (like all those times where I saw something in a dream and would wake up to it being posted without any prior information to make me anticipate it, or how I'd read Discord convos in my sleep that were happening at the same time as I was sleeping). I blame such things on human brains evolving because of how often we are using tech; both tech and brain have electricity and maybe they are getting sync for more and more people. Humans are adaptable 🤔 But I did mention that tonight I was tormented by really weird dreams, and the biggest discomfort factor was losing self-control and being pulled to "pick fights" like marionette.. So what if it was that feeling during being asleep what triggered this (extremely unlikely) spontaneous blocking?
Kind of hope it will turn out that Tumblr simply found new way to be broken and it is just an unlucky timing for my paranoia 🤦♂️ But I still can't list how many weird things happen.. I should consider stopping sleeping with my phone under pillow if unexplainable coincidences continue.

I don't know, maybe it's just me, but does anyone else find it a little weird seeing people ship Walker and Leah? Or just like....any of the younger pjo TV show cast? Because like, why are people doing that? I thought they left behind after the whole debacle with Emma Waston and the guy who plays Draco. Like, please, let's not ship underage actors together just because they have chemistry on screen.

You asked for a fic rec so I’ll toss this one at ya: https://archiveofourown.org/works/46767358?view_full_work=true Stick through the formatting for the characterization, tone, and really the whole vibe of this fic. I haven’t been able to get the bathroom call between Daigo and Majima out of my head for weeks since I read it with how naturally it all flows. My own little Daigo characterization booklet to review when I feel like I need a refresher on him.
so I may have stayed up until 6am reading this (would’ve slept earlier but I couldn’t stop reading it) and hgggahaghhhhaggahshhhhhhhh that was one of the most well-characterized fics I’ve ever read what the fuck. like the differences in how each character speaks (both tone-wise and in differing levels of authenticity) and how they speak to specific others (the daigo and majima dyanmic specifically- how they actually take into account how long they’ve been working really closely- SO good), the mental anguish and chaos vs the overwhelming emptiness of being daigo dojima but no longer The 6th Chairman Daigo Dojima……….I could keep going but I think you get it.
tbh I’d been wanting to write something exploring a similar set of dynamics/situation (post-kiryu’s fake death, interactions with haruka, daigo, and/or majima specifically, reflecting on his shortcomings while acknowledging the heavy Grief left behind) but now I’m like. well I still could but this was so well written in regards to daigo and haruka that, as far as something between those two goes, I don’t feel the need to.
thanks for the recommendation! my brain is broken now (affectionate)

Hey writers
Has anyone else ever had this thing when they’ve been between projects for a while and haven’t been writing much, and they’re getting antsy for something new? And they have ideas they like, but they like. Literally just got them. Like a week ago. Or just yesterday.
And planning take a while. A lot of time and energy. You can’t really force it even though you try. So now you’re in this weird messed up grey area where you’re excited but absolutely terrified of starting something new. And you’re also being extra hard on yourself because you have to make it perfect, it has to click immediately, otherwise you feel useless simply resting and not being creative/productive. So you tend to obsess over planning to the point of anxiety, which only makes you stress out more and feeds this negative cycle. But you have passion for the ideas, you do, and you want to work on them. But you stress yourself out so easily because you’re so antsy and you haven’t had a project in a while.
Anyone else get that?
