"Time for your last act!" A massive stage appeared underneath the brunette, with various props made via anemo mimics and her familiar - Owliver, in his Owlman appearance, surrounded a group of Hilichurls and Mitachurl pyro axe wielder. With a snap of her fingers, Zola took off her hat with a bow when the anemo mimics began a stampede at each side.

The groans of each one signally the defeat, each the magi had a pant as she looked over at a blonde trying to catch her breath. "A-are you alright?"

@frozcnlight gets a Xmas Starter from Chu Chu ~

"...Miran". He glanced around the room one more time, before back at his wife, as though wondering if she could see the same as he was. The twins were barely crawling at the moment, Rai was simply grateful just to have a roof over his head and Strelitzia certainly wasn't expecting the entirety of Santa's Grotto to appear under the tree...yet that was what seemed to have ended up happening here. "...do you think that maybe, just maybe, we might have got a little carried away?". He couldn't put all the blame on her - he had gone a little overboard for the twins, since it was their first Christmas and all - and then there was all the new clothing for Rai since he'd barely anything to his name before Miran took him in...but still. "How are we even going to wrap all this...how have you kept all this hidden...you sure your ability isn't something like dimension storage...?"

@frozcnlight continued from [X]

Oh. This one...how he was already imagining ways in which to wipe that smug grin off his face, though none of that came across in the rather friendly expression he wore, his one hands hiding within the pockets of the jacket he wore, fingers curling around one of the blades hidden within. Best not to act on such impulses... "Hmm? Oh Miran, can't you see that we're having a conversation here? Didn't your mother teach you basic manners? Mines a little questionable herself, I'd admit to that much", he chuckled lightly, and though he was addressing Miran, his full attention was locked on Sehun, "Such a shame we've never met before now...just where have you been? You're sister's been in a world of trouble, you know? If I had such a cute sister, I wouldn't leave her alone in such a dangerous place..."

Beryl finds herself decidedly out of her element. Interacting with others has never been among her strengths. She has been a primarily solitary existence, more at home with the plants that fall under the domain of her study than she is with other people. Thus, it could be considered a strange occurrence for her to seek out a place where others gather. 

To find herself in Angel’s Share is indeed quite strange for her. It is an almost overwhelming experience. No, it’s a good thing for places such as these to be lively, isn’t it? Such thoughts are almost enough for her to forget what she even came here for to begin with. Almost. 

She’d come here with a specific goal in mind after all. Her eyes scan the area for the most approachable person in the vicinity. She decides on one particular individual almost immediately. It would not do to delay and draw further attention to herself. 

“Ah, I beg your pardon…” Despite her decisiveness just a moment before, Beryl feels uncertain now. After all, this is the reason why she’s come this far. She’s become aware of her lack of meaningful relationships with others. Thus, she’s set out to make a friend. Even if she is a bit unsure about the process.

“Be my friend! Wait, that is not quite…” That is, perhaps, a touch too aggressive. But she’s already said it and she’s never been one for standing down. “What I meant to convey is that I would sincerely like to become friends with you.”

Beryl isn’t quite aware that her methods of friend making may be a bit flawed in nature.

Ezra was having a slow day, almost hoping he'd run into someone that could use help so he'd have something to do. He hadn't slept, figuring if he didn't find something soon that he'd go home and try, but the concept didn't seem appealing. The small apartment was depressing, and it's not like he'd actually fall asleep anyways. He needed to be almost to the point of passing out to be willing to rest, it not being something that he did willingly very often.

He stopped a few feet from a girl, a natural beauty evident about her, long blonde hair flowing as he watched her for a moment. Her arms were full, almost to the point of dropping something on the ground. His legs moved before his brain caught up, grabbing stuff from her arms to help lighten her load.

"Lead the way, my arms are yours for now."

@frozcnlight sent a meme:

"Hey, could you help me?" { for the Genshin verse! c: }

"Hmm?" He turned in time to see a young woman carrying enough crates that they probably weighed more than she did. And she was tilting towards him, ready to fall and drop those crates, potentially breaking whatever was in them.

"Ah, I've got it," he said, taking some of them. He may have been on vacation here in Mondstadt, but his instinct to help overpowered his sister's insistence that they relax.

Well, Cadenza wasn't with him right now. She didn't have to know.

"Just lead the way, I can help you get these where they need to be."

21. What helps you recharge when you feel burned out writing?

Mun Preferences

{--Its kinda hard to say that there's any one specific thing. It kind of depends on the reason for the burnout, I guess.

I think the one that's the easiest to deal with is just pure writing burnout where I know already what I want to write, but the motivation to actually write it just isn't there. That one can be as simple as just doing something else for a while like play a video game, or putting on some white noise or study music to help my brain get into the right flow. Sometimes recharging from writing burnout is as simple as give yourself permission to do something else not related to writing.

Or maybe the problem is what you're writing. Sometimes I can't write IC things or stories for jack or shit, but set me down to write about some sort of non-fiction passion of mine and I could draft you an entire encyclopedia on it in 5 minutes.

Then there's other writer's block that comes from being stuck. Kind of a "how do I respond to this?" / "how do I turn this into something of substance?" or just generally not knowing what to write.

I find for me at least, that kind of writer's block comes from not having worked out a solid idea of what my goals for the interaction / thread are. Of course you're not able to write, because there's no clear vision.

I usually take a step back from actually trying to Write The Thing and spend some time turning over different ideas in my head. What am I or the character hoping to get out of the thread? Do I want to continue things longer or keep the interaction short and sweet? Do I want/hope for a certain kind of relationship to form between the characters involved? What's the most satisfying tone for that interaction for me? Happy? Sad? Funny? Angsty?

Through this sort of self-drilling, I can start to take "nothing" and put together "something" one lego brick at a time. Its not necessarily that I'll achieve any of those particular goals, even when more heavy plotting is involved between me and another partner, but it at least gets things moving again instead of just being stuck in place.

And also, is there any specific thing holding back my ability to respond to or write something? Like for instance, a situation that really just doesn't vibe well with the particular muse, or irreconcilable barriers in the interaction between characters (think of it as, one muse wants to go left, the other wants to go right, and neither has a good reason to change course even if it means going separate ways and ending the interaction).

Chuuya in particular is one of my more stubborn muses when it comes to doing things "By The Book". Specifically, his and the Port Mafia's book. He's an Executive for a reason. Everything he does has some level of rhyme, reason, and thought to it even if he seems like a loose canon. Good luck changing his mind about certain things, so the challenge with him as a muse becomes finding the right justification to make him go along with something he wouldn't otherwise.

Sometimes that might be something like an off-screen intervention by another character (see: Mori giving orders, as an example). Or it might be throwing a new wrench into the circumstances of the thread so that a good reason to Do The Thing has been introduced.

Mind you though, trying to force it too hard and throw in total nonsense just to get from Point A to Point B doesn't really work for me or certain muses I have a lot of the time. That sort of redirection in a thread, for me at least, just makes things feel cheap and unsatisfying. So coming up with something that has genuine, honest impact is key, imo.

Also! Sometimes the problem of the writer's block is you're just not managing to scratch a particular itch. For instance, if you want more meaningful and long plotted threads, and all you're really getting is shallow asks that go nowhere, that's going to kill your writing motivation imo.

Or sometimes its something like you're doing too many long, complicated threads and your attention span is just "No" at anything longer than one paragraph.

Sometimes the solution to burnout is to scratch whatever itch you're not getting already. Obviously you can't really control what your RP partners/other people want to write or send you, so worse comes to worse, you can always write your own little drabbles or headcanons or whatever that has your interest and basically get it out of your system enough that you can then focus on whatever other things you're stuck on.

Also! As a last thing, sometimes its because you're too distracted or inundated by a bunch of other shit. Like scrolling a website, watching videos on youtube or tiktok, et cetera. Sometimes what you really need to do is just sit with yourself and let your thoughts flow. Like take a shower or lie in bed or meditate and just do nothing.

You know how people always talk about having "shower thoughts"? Its because its one of the few places where most people these days having nothing else to do except be with themselves and think. Sometimes the problem is that you really just need to shut down everything else going on to clear your head and find the answer.--}

@frozcnlight said: "Do you ever wish you were still asleep?" { for Subaru c: } / prompt.

Subaru wanted to say something witty. Something to smile and ease any worries she could be having. But he couldn't. Instead he just stared for a moment. There were so many things it could mean.

Subaru had a hard time falling asleep. Even before he got here, his mind would replay all of his worst failures. But now, those thoughts and dreams had memories that no one should or could ever have swirling in his mind. He would close his eyes and see it. Death. Pain. Loss. Even when there was peace, he could always feel it nipping at his heels. Ready to strike.

"What brought that on?" There were times when he would dream of peace. Times in which he could enjoy his time with Emilia and Beako and the others. Even Rem.... Did he actually want to wake up? Did he wish he was still asleep? It was also true, sometimes, that he simply wanted to feel and experience nothing.

And other times when reality was horrific enough that he wanted it to just be a nightmare....

"Sometimes, I guess. What about you?"

[dearestagonya]

She crosses her arms, letting out a sigh of annoyance. This girl has no idea what she's gotten herself into. "Let's make our escape!" If they stuck around here, the ghost would probably come back. "I'll explain what's going on later." Addison takes the woman by the hand, leading the way out of the old library. The atmosphere around them is tense and every sudden noise Addison hears has her on edge. This is going to be a long day, she can tell.

@frozcnlight liked for a starter! :: and got one with Addison! // song :: Higher by Creed.

@frozcnlight Xmas Starter ~ Reverse Verse ~

"I can't...I can't believe you guys are...so...so stupid!" Shirase ran a hand through his hair rather harshly, as though the pressure was going to help to calm down the storm that raged currently within, his gaze narrowing as Chuuya wrapped an arm around Miran and tugged her closer to his side, as though she needed some type of protection. "Oh? You think I'm going to lash out!? I'm not the one with...uncontrollable urges here!" "Of course not", Chuuya sighed lightly. They'd known that breaking this news to Shirase wasn't going to be easiest in the world, but although some type of a reaction was more than expected, this had still shocked him a little, though if he paused to think over things logically, it did make sense that Shirase was as worried as he was...but still. He could at least pretend to be happy...

"...so how is this even going to work? How are we supposed to make sure that Miran gets the help needed and remain hidden? Why...how... GOD - you two couldn't just keep it in your pants!?". He ran his hand once more through his hair, Chuuya sighing lightly. Yip...this was going to be a fun Christmas...for a whole heap of reasons.

@frozcnlight asked for a Xmas Starter [X]

"When it got all dark and cold like this, we'd often make offerings to the Golden Witch, praying for warmth and shelter before the winter settled in", Rai explained as he sat on the ground helping Strelitzia untangle some of the fairy lights, at the same time as helping Miran to make sure the twins weren't getting into too much trouble while she overlooked the hotel's decorations - though so far, the most to happen was Eiji trying to eat some of the tinsel. "Did she listen?", Strelitzia asked, frowning as she struggled with one of the more stubborn sections, "I've never really heard you talk about it before now." "Hmm, the lights just reminded me of the candles we used to light...I had a friend who'd go around the entire temple, making sure everyone had their own light...I wonder how he is now". Sighing lightly, he climbed to his feet, picking up the untangled lights he'd been working on, carefully handing them up to Miran, "This place is always so warm and cosy though - so I guess such traditions aren't needed here".

@frozcnlight gifts Regulus frozen butter.

Regulus looked down at the butter, then back up at Miran, then back down at the butter again. What??? Why was she giving him frozen butter?

"Um... Miran, I don't think I can make a cake with this. Unless you want to wait until the butter thaws out."
