Started this as a vent/projection/headcanon thing the other day (also @secret-spirit 's headcanons are all like some kind of virus /pos). Anyways headcanon that they tend to get very "pull-y" when they're upset, especially their hair (I wanted like drawing them pulling at clothes but I didn't have the energy/space ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)
#dreams of an insomniac#alex williams#made half of this listening to ''break my mind'' on loop and the other half with pastra's vod of absolute radiance in the background#i am especially proud of that left one ahehehehe <3 putting them through distress and The Horrors™ (lovingly)#doodle’s art#my stuffs#*quiet chanting* braid alex braid alex braid alex braid alex >:D#pastraart

wow the legend of dragoon has not aged very well lmao, the gameplay is really damn good but the writing makes me go 😬😬😬 like half the time
#bought the ps5 port since i heard they fixed it#holy shit the amount of casual sexism in this game hjsgjdjgjg#and the way it affects not only the dialogue but the gameplay as well#all the women have less hp bc of their “weak frail and inferior female bodies” i guess#not only do we have an awful damsel in distress/love interest but the men are constantly like#“ahaha it's only natural because you're a Woman™. your feeble femoid body can't handle all this”#personal

the rats in my brain that hit the depression button r working overtime. we don't need to be doing this
#my nightmares are Always triggered by stress and/or depression#generally. idk. they're eerie but not distressing#that one was Distressing™#historically it's like. running from someone and there's zero gravity llamas there#the Weird Dogs Know Me dream. scary at the time but like. hysterically funny in retrospect#this one was.um.Bad.

HOW DOES ANYONE EVER FINISH A MULTI-CHAPTER FIC
#I'M LOSING MY FUCKING MIND (<-distressed. derogatory.)#mc13 writes#The Fic That's A Lot#once AGAIN wondering for the MILLIONTH FUCKING TIME if I should just hang this up and abandon it like at this point I feel like#there's not much of a point anymore#it was already a weird niche thing anyway and I'm SUFFERING trying to get through it#I think maybe I need to just straight infodump™ about it somewhere. but that's. that's not something I can just like. ask the average#person for. if it were any OTHER story then yeah sure. I'd probably do that ON THIS BLOG. but this is...jfc.

omg I just got angry (more angy than angry , if that makes sense) for the silliest reason (bpd it's 100% the bpd) and then managed to giggle about it after realizing I was being dramatic and that it's just me being . well . the grudge-holder like-or-hate being I am .
#➳ the fool speaks#like my brain is arguing w itself but it's actually in a funny way instead of heavily distressing like it usually is#my brain keeps trying to be like ''HAAAATE GRRRGRHRGRHRG HATE HATE HATE !!!!'' but logically i know#hating doesn't do anything in this situation and there isn't exactly much of a valid reason to feel so strongly fufu#but still . my brain is being silly . it's kinda like watching somebun get worked up over nothing and then laughing as uu gently reassure#them that it isn't that big of a deal .#like a kid who's sad they have to leave playtime with a friend or put a toy away and reassuring them they'll see that friend again or be#able to play with their toy a bit later#dunno . this time it just feels Different™ . nawt all Fire And Hell like it was every time I've had to argue with my brain in the last three#months of life being . life .#this time it feels a little endearing#i prefer this to the hell that was my mind in aug-sept

Dad Let Your Children Be Adults Challenge 2025
#he keeps interrogating me about my medication#and now is pressuring my brother and asking ME to pressure him about his recent ADHD diagnosis#dude#LEAVE US#he's 25 I'm 30 we are both married#just leave us#it seems to cause him genuine distress to know that his Perfect Family ™ is “falling apart” (aka not perfectly healthy)

#Vent post#Selkie speaks#Imposter syndrome#I'm having a bad time™#Made this about my art but this also majorly applies to my writing#I'm a fuckin seesaw when it comes to my own work#Switching so fast between pride and shame it's giving me whiplash#I would like to get back to enjoying the creative process rather than beating myself up for not being immediately perfect#I want to write#I want to write so badly#*distressed grumbling noises*#If you see me sitting in silence in a dark corner next to threshold Suguru#Don't rescue me#I'm with a kindred spirit and exactly where I belong

Thinking abt the second dream story featuring a third dream story I can't remember if I ever talked abt. I <3 body horror bonus points if its slow and agonizing
#rat rambles#oc posting#the more recent dream was far less defined of a story than the other two main dreams I based stories off of but it still stuck with me#mostly because it involed dragons and body horror and both of those things are sick as hell#and I decided to put it in the same world at the story with grim since that dream also technically had dragons in it#ok but actually the main reason is to fill in some worldbuilding gaps that planted grief (the working name for grims story) had#Im still working on the worldbuilding it's been a slow process since neither story has rly gotten to be my primary focus at any given time#but Im slowly getting somewhere#mainly the important thing is figuring out what the world outside of planted grief's setting looks like and how much magic is in either#for context an important element of this world is that it is a very magical world but a certain region of it is more or less blocked off#from the rest of the world and within that region magic is far less prevelant to the point that for most ppl it may as well not exist#now for what I have so far its not necessary that these ppl don't know magic exists its just that its like. kind of hard for them to#remember it does? like when they see magic they are able to recognize it's magic and as smth fairly normal if not a bit weird to see here#but when there isnt actively magical shit going on they just sort of. cant hold onto that knowledge and forget abt it#this also applies to a lot of other things relating to magic and the rest of the world outside the region#its why they're pretty well known for their region being cursed as hell and its people even more cursed#outside the region it's pretty well known that some great tragedy befell those lands at some point in the far off past that probably is the#cause of how weird and fucky things are over there and that the barriers were set up at some point to stop it from spreading#nowadays the borders aren't super strict and people are free to cross them given they go through the proper paperwork and stuff#but most ppl on either side tend to at least be heavily advised to not take the risk for many reasons#its generally not too uncommon for outsiders to move in for work reasons tho#the main concern is that the more magical one is the harder time theyll have since ppl will often just. forget they exist when not directly#interacting with them. which isnt usually too bad but it does lead to various safety concerns that have to be addressed#the good news is that generally the longer one hangs around people the easier time they'll have remembering them as they form their own#associations with them and are able to cling to the memory that way#but the bad news is that while foreigners will never be completely susceptible to the curse™ they will start to feel the effects of it the#longer they live there which tends to be very distressing to those who end up living there long term#one part of the curse™ theyll never be hit with as hard as locals is the days of grief that hit the population Hard every now and then#basically just full days where everyone is suddenly completely inconsolable or just otherwise out of it and then completely forget abt it#once the local dragons deal with the source of the issue
