The accomplishment of one of the kids in shul: Reading the haftarah completely in hebrew with little hesitation and in a pretty timely manner

My accomplishment (whole adult): Being able to follow along without getting lost (first time I have been able to do this)

Honestly, though, I'm not complaining. My method of acquiring knowledge was to do full immersion in my community, and I've been seeing how much I've been able to learn. In terms of Doing Judaism, I'm younger than these kids at shul 💀💪

7, 19, 24 for writer ask meme : )

7 -  your preferred writing fonts

GASP, love this question because I love fonts oh my goodness o(≧▽≦)o. And curb stomping writing block by changing fonts on a whim, my love. Anyways, I completely adore Merriweather and Georgia! 99% of all my fics are written in these beautiful, incredible fonts. Mwah. Love ‘em. But occasionally I’ll go for Lucida Sans, or Libre Baskerville or Domine!!! Some rare fics are font specific in my brain, like I can’t write it anything but this specific font. Don’t know why.

19 - the most interesting topic you’ve researched for a fic

Aw, I wish I had a classic writer answer like stages of decomposition, or the components of obscure laws, but my snippets of research are few and far between, since if it feels too much like work, I’m not doing it. But to answer, probably older British-y words for “whore”! I went with slag, by the way. 

24 - how do you recharge when you’re not feeling creative?

Read! :) one of the reasons I write so much is because I’m such a big reader! I always have been, honestly. I’m always trying to find the next book to read, through Meticulously combing through horror books recommendations (trying to determine whether or not I like the style to finally buy), or devouring fanfics at a concerning pace, or INHALING manwha’s. I read so many comics. Manga, manwha, mostly via shonen/action genre but I dip into romance on rare whim. Other than that, I’m slowly trying to play video games to expand my hobbies and allow a better cool off for my brain when I get writing fatigue. I draw as well, but reading and drawing are my mains!

thank you for the asks :))) I love these !

[troublemakergalaxy]

i wrote a fic for the first time in too long. im not uber proud of it but go gay people we love serrennedy in this household

@wisecrackingeric-2 :3 hi here's my day 1 contribution i decided to participate LOL

[a-very-fond-farewell]

I mean. I have to ask about "blownasunder" 👀

ahah you caught me P:

basically it’s a project that never saw the light beyond ch1, and that’s mostly bc your beautiful fic fed all my reading needs dear ;-; but also bc I was having troubles researching South Korean legal system and law school education curricula.

it should have been a canon divergence au where Yo Han didn’t become a judge but an Ethics Professor instead (can you imagine?? him?? ethics?? that’s an insane reach even for me), while Ga On began university later bc he did end up in jail in high school after getting (some level of) revenge for his parents. the catch should have been all focused on Ga On’s relationship with Jung Sun Ah as his benefactor funding his studies after charitably reintroducing him to society through a deal with the court. he gets a more lenient sentence and is made to apply for social work in volunteering activities (handled by the cult) before his military service. this all to be allowed to go to university and then law school in the end: so he actively mecame the posterchild for the elite’s facade of well-meaning intentions towards the commons folks and is paraded as such (causing him all sorts of self-esteem issues mixed with pride for “being picked” and for “having made it back to society”).

I thought to myself: what if Sun Ah gets to Ga On first? I wanted to explore something similar to the betrayal Ga On felt in canon towards [redacted..... for spoiler reasons in case anyone hasn’t watched the show till the end yet], but this time around in regards to an “older-sister-like figure”, so to speak. Sun Ah is very deceitful and can act the caring type well, so I wanted to see how Ga On would have grown up to be under her influence rather than anyone else’s. this would have also made him closer to the cult too and he would have been essentially groomed into being one of the many perfect little puppets they used for their schemes.

Soo Hyun would have not been in the picture close-range, since at the time she would have been in police academy, but I still wanted her to project her guilt onto Ga On for “not having managed to save him back then”, or something on those lines. my queen Jin Joo is also there, but I wasn’t sure whether to make her Ga On’s tutor or Yo Han’s teaching assistant yet.

I ditched the idea in the end, but i still think about it from time to time. I envisioned a How to get away with Murder scenario for the high-stakes ethics lectures under Yo Han’s guidance, but in this au Yo Han would have been highly suspicious of Ga On since the kid was basically taken under the 1%’s wing and is consequently indebted to them. Ga On would have been still 27-28 in this au tho.

I’m sad I wasn’t able to give justice to this plot idea, bc coming up with Yo Han’s shenanigans in class was proving to be very difficult for me at the time xD I wrote the basic plot points on my notepad and maybe the first chapter.. but then I gave up.

but in a way I’m glad I did, bc I was frustrated with myself and decided to treat me to some good food on ao3 and found your fic ;—; that way I found you T—T and we became friends T^T so all is well in the end :D

[ct-hardcase]

Was thinking about Trilla and her story, and how (very understandably, given her slowburn turn in JFO) a lot of her fandom emphasis is on the fact that she was dragged kicking and screaming into the inquisitorius and focuses on her redemption as a hinge point, with there being a fandom-wide recognition that she's a good inquisitor, but I really want to dive into the meat of the latter.

Even though Trilla was the farthest you could get from a willing inductee, she clearly got good. We don't have much hard evidence of her skill pre-JFO, but she clearly has a presence on the field given how her purge troopers act around her in Dark Temple, and is an intimidating combatant against Cal throughout. However, taking the analysis from this post (a highly-recommended read, since it shaped my thoughts on Trilla and other inquisitors' characterization), she wasn't always that way—and quite the opposite.

The inquisitorius broke Trilla down in order to turn the kind, anxious soul screaming for her master into an efficient and ruthless inquisitor. I'm sure she holds a lot of resentment, of course, but I wonder how Trilla feels about that the other side of her remaking. How, from a certain point of view, there's a commanding presence she didn't have before, how she's not shrinking in the background during a duel fight, how she leads when it's down to her and another inquisitor on a mission.

I also have to disagree that Trilla was looking for an out of the organization prior to JFO—I don't think anything other than Cere showing up and the catharsis of the final duel could have triggered that in her, honestly, since there's a line where Trilla says she intends to use the holocron as leverage to advance in the organization. That sort of determination to be noticed by Vader or Sidious feels more ambitious than Reva-esque, to me.

Trilla's attempted turn to the light is important, and I think it's what keeps so many people coming back to her as a character, but her having been a dedicated inquisitor before that is what makes her interesting idk
