dog coded fic ch4 is like 1/3rd done but it's a heavy one so it's taking me a bit aaa bear with me

I MADE MY FIC TAG SO SEXY i added moodboards to every single one. was this entirely self indulgent and unnecessary and an act of unintentional procrastination? yes. did it bring me joy while writing angst? also yes so

i have like 50 asks waiting for me again and I'VE READ THEM ALL OKAY and i've been losing my mind over them oh my god special mention to the anon leaving brainrot for my curtbuckbucky club au... you don't understand what you've done to me. i've almost opened a new doc so many times. i have Thoughts about what you've said and i will voice them and get back to as many other asks as i can soon!! just need an evening to lock in and sit down and reply, and there are so many fun prompt reqs to write too <3

i feel so fucking bad– i have not responded to ao3 comments or comments on my fics etc here for over a month and i reread them all so often and never want to seem like idc bc i DO they mean everything to me, literally the reason i stay motivated to write 😭💗 so i need to also sit down and go thru and reply to all of them, i just get overwhelmed by the love and sit there smiling like an idiot and then i feel the imposter syndrome and tell myself i'll reply later and the cycle repeats JDSGK <3

this week's gonna be pretty busy for me so i might still be a bit quiet, but after that i'm hoping i can get back to more regular brainrot in between writing my fic >:) me treating this like a job HSDGKJ jk i have so much fun here i rly do miss yapping all day :') anyway i think that's all, been making some edits too but i keep getting sidetracked before i finish them and i rly should be focusing on yad(iym) regardless smh! justice for pining bucky fr. but yeah if i'm ever not posting as much, just assume i'm either busy irl or focussing my energy on fic writing bc i'm so serious when i say every minute that i'm not busy irl is spent on these stupid men i'm literally plagued with thoughts of them 24/7 fml

WIP TITLES

Are Hexagon Square Dances a Thing?: Born as a LoveyWeek entry, I got stuck on the very last chapter fml

Uncovering, Unraveling (working title): Imagine Marinette had accidentally outed her Loveybug identity (as in Woven In) to Cat Walker in the (Un)Suited plotline... basically Farewell Gifts but make it smut lol

The Merits of Bagging a Hero (working title): Adrien and Marinette are invited at Alya's and Nino's place for their usual wine&dine night. Everything is going fine, Mari being flustered and Adrien being oblivious as usual - until Alya brings out the topic of hero-specific free passes and the two become inexplicably passionate about who would be the best hero lay between Ladybug and Chat Noir...

Poker Face: Loveybug AU, Cat Walker angst

Heart(s) on Her Sleeve: Companion piece for Poker Face, Loveybug's side of the angst

UPCOMING

Tbqh the biggest motivation for getting this done is getting it over with, which is probably why I've been having so much trouble tackling it lol. I'll just say that I initially intended it to end with platonic Mariwalker buuuuut there may be some smooching hehe

Turns out I'm a SUCKER for scenarios where Cat Walker learns Marinette is Loveybug lol I will have a lot of fun writing the surprise conversation (won't go too much into details bc spoilers) they'll have about his feelings... with Adrien still inside Marinette, both of them deliberately avoiding addressing the fact or doing anything at all abt it lol

This will be 200% crack and I will have SO MUCH FUN writing the most batshit stuff I can come up with. Alya, ever the shit-stirrer, figures out Adrien is Chat Noir halfway through the conversation and spends the rest of the fic basically eating popcorn and fanning that trashfire of a debate lol

Chat Noir is a necessary outlet for Adrien. When Cat Walker has to pick up Loveybug's slack, his energies and enthusiasm are slowly but surely drain until the only reason he dons his mask, the only reason he gets out of bed, is Loveybug's unrestrained and unconditional affection. This can't last - and yet, it's his duty to carry the weight and not let anything show. I'm gonna enjoy writing the pressure building >:3c

There's one phrase to describe Loveybug!Marinette: bracing for punishment. She's too raw with all the Loveybug intensity, she just CAN'T turn into Ladybug, so she just keeps pouring her heart out knowing that at some point, somehow, she will be horrifically punished for it. Just like with Kim. Just like every time she tried to confess to Adrien. But as a hero, the consequences of her mistakes could be... she doesn't want to think about it. She keeps her head low and prepares for the worst, dreading and longing the moment when she'll be forced to wear Loveybug's lovestruck smile again.

Anyone I would have thought to tag Kayla has already tagged, with the excellent exception of @asukiess, so I won't be tagging anybody else! Feel free to join in the fun and consider this a soft tag if you (yes YOU reading this rn) want to tho :3

Heyy

I just have some constructive criticism! I've read your works for a while , they're all pretty good ! But with ashes of promise I've encountered a small problem...it doesn't seem to have a base , like base emotions of characters , I feel like for a good story we need to get like a basic setup of a character so that we can resonate with it but with jk and fml, they're pretty indecisive, and I get that maybe it was your plan all along , but it felt throughout the chapter that we were simply going back and forth with no momentum whatsoever , like maybe somethings gonna change and then we're back to square one in just some paragraphs later. Also I feel like to keep readers hooked you have to give out some kind of info rather than showing us the same indecisive side of jk just as fml sees it . So I feel like if you refined the characters more and made them not around in circles , it might help make the story better!

It's just constructive criticism! Nothing else , feel free to not take it at all , love you byee!

Hi Anon! I hope you're having an amazing day. First off, thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with me! I really respect your perspective as a reader. Honestly, your message really made me pause and think. I mean, do my characters really lack a solid base? That thought has me reflecting, but at the same time, I feel like we’re still pretty early in the story. We’ve only had two chapters, and there’s still so much more to unfold. But I’m definitely not dismissing your feedback!

It kinda stings to hear that the characters might seem indecisive, but I also feel like they do have emotional depth (at least I hope so). They’re just in the early stages of their journeys, and they’re still working through their struggles, which will bring out their true selves in the end. But hey, let me quickly summarize what’s happened so far:

In the prologue, the OC comes to the Lycan palace for a royal gathering and meets Jungkook, only to find that he’s not interested in her at all.

In Chapter 1, there’s a bit of a hot-and-cold dynamic with Jungkook—he sets rules and is cold, but then he’s unexpectedly sweet in the garden, only to fight with her later that night.

Chapter 2 focuses more on the OC’s internal struggle. I totally agree that I haven’t clarified her motives well enough, but I did touch on her backstory. She was wanted by her old alpha, but she chose to wait for her mate. Then tragedy struck—her luna died, and the pack members blamed her. She was left alone, with no one to turn to, and it’s a pretty human thing to blame the one who seems weak. Since they couldn’t blame the alpha, she became the scapegoat. She was young, weak, and alone, with her parents already gone.

Elizabeth’s entrance in Chapter 2 is key, too. Her arrival was HUGE because it sets up how OC might seem weak now but is actually super strong for surviving all that. But here’s the thing—OC thinks she’s trying her best to win Jungkook over, but she’s not really trying. She just thinks she is.

Jungkook’s perspective hasn’t been fully explored yet (but Chapter 3 will spill a lot, promise—his POV is coming), but I’ve dropped some hints about his backstory, especially his complicated feelings toward his mother and his fears of becoming like his father. It’s subtle for now, but it’ll make more sense as the story moves forward. And yeah, the whole back-and-forth dynamic is there because the OC has only been at the palace for a few days—like, less than a week (I hope that’s coming across). I get why that feels frustrating as a reader, but it’s meant to be a gradual push-and-pull as they both figure out their emotions. Jungkook might seem cold and strong, but deep down, he’s dealing with some serious vulnerability. He sees OC as someone who might doom him the same way his mother did his father. This fear says a LOT about him if you read between the lines.

I totally get why you’re feeling that frustration—it’s not easy to see the characters going in circles, but trust me, they’re heading somewhere big. And, as I’ve teased, you’ll get some major revelations in Chapter 3. Things are about to get a lot more intense, especially with Jimin, the Blue Moon, and the attack (you’ll see soon!).

Look, I’m still learning and growing as a writer. I’ve been writing for a long time, but this is my first time working on a full story, so I’m just figuring things out as I go. Please trust the process, and I’ll do my best to make it better! Your feedback means a lot to me, and I’m really grateful for it. I hope I didn’t sound defensive or rude, because that’s not my intention at all. These characters are like my babies, and it’s tough to hear they’re not coming across the way I envisioned, but I’ll keep working on it!

Thank you again for taking the time to share your thoughts with me. You’ve really given me something to think about, and I’ll do my best to improve. I truly respect your opinions. Luv u 2! 💕

Trying to retrieve my old tumblr account, my yahoo mail must have been deleted as well. Fml. Just want to document random musings here instead of writing comments no one reads that will eventually be thrusted into oblivion.

I have come to a point where chaos in the physical calms down for a bit and now I have time to actually spend time on building things. This time around, I am focusing on my mind. I wonder if that's even possible...taming it, giving it structure. Finally giving the attention ADHD always wanted. This is how I roll, I've been like this 10++ years ago, there's no more changing it. It's always Ni wanting to get things done--it never sleeps. Effort that no one sees, effort that never reaches the ground except maybe the Gods.

Wonder how it's gonna turn out, building consciously an interiority I never had in the first place. It has always been me working to attend to what's asked of me, whoring myself out for the world's pleasure and enjoyment. I'm a feast completely free and accessible to everyone. Not that people don't have a built-in protector against me. An invisible glass wall exists that's meant to clash. To butt heads with. The only difference is I see them, I hear them, I feel them. No matter how much I extend my hands, my heart, my loins, my entrails out, we will never touch.

That's not speculation, not a mere conjecture. It happened, it's been happening, it always happens, it will keep on happening. It's not a projection of my past. There must be a residue of it that needs cleansing so I need to do it again and again...

I just like to emphasize that I am not a drama queen nor I have ever been an arrogant edgelord. I am a thing that gives and gives and gives and that's how I like it. I am not like you and certainly not like the people you know. Do not clump me with them. The world's reasoning and motivations don't work with me. Ask me questions. That's the only way anyone can get to know me.

Last night, I was going through the Klena tag on ao3, and I found a fic by the same account called “Stay” that was very much like SWBS. I didn’t continue past the first chapter because it was literally a rehash of the beginning of SWBS, just written a lot worse. I was going to message you about it, but then I got a tumble notification of your post and the beginning of it was talking about a fic you thought stole your work, so I just assumed you had already found it yourself. I didn’t notice until a few minutes ago that this post was actually about another fic of yours they ripped off. I think you should check out “Stay” as well. I’m so sorry this had happened to you!!

Oh GEEZ!!! Thanks for letting me know!!!! To be honest I gave up reading fic for Lent this year, so while I thought the premise was kind of similar, I assumed it was just someone taking the premise and running in their own direction with it, and had planned to read the fic (and all of the other klena fics popping up!) when I get back to reading fic in a few weeks.

I’m sort of a sitting duck for this sort of thing this time of year, so if anyone believes they’ve encountered serious plagiarism of my work, please do message me!

After reading the one that plagiarizes Just a Glimpse (I had to give myself a dispensation since this was very much so not reading fic for fun), I unfortunately have no doubt that Stay is probably a direct rip off of SWBS. I guess I’ll have to check that one out too and probably submit an abuse claim for that fic too if the plagiarism is apparent there as well. Fml.

The worst thing about this other fic (Always Hate Me I think is what it’s called) is that it looks primed to start plagiarizing FE, based on the latest chapter and the tags (maybe not surprising, I said in the Just a Glimpse comments that it could be seen as a prequel to FE if one so desired) and the thing about FE is that I have poured my heart and soul into it for five years now. It’s taken up countless hours, most of my free time, and due to the nature of the content has really required me to face some deeply emotional and difficult things in my own personal history. The idea of it being plagiarized really makes me feel sick.

I do want to reiterate that I believe fanfic to be an inclusive sandbox for everyone to play in— I don’t own the characters, or the canon divergences I choose to write about, or even my ideas about world-building, characterization, or specific premises I come up with or invent. I am always happy for people to take my ideas and run in their own direction with it— We all know there are probably a million ways to write the same premise with each of those stories having their own unique scenes, dialogue, and plot. I even am fine with anyone who wants to write fic set in one of my fic universes posting those fics (though I would appreciate if my work were linked and to get a head’s up about it).

What I don’t like is lifting my stories literally scene for scene, with dialogue and motives and specific details and premises passed off as the plagiarist author’s own.

What have I been up to the last 6 years?

Sadly, not as much otome as I would have liked. If you must know, over the last 6 years I have graduated from college, started and resigned from a job I loved then hated, started and still work a job I don't love but am content with, moved 3 times, overcame severe depression and anxiety, and much more.

During this time away, I off and on played some new and old games while also mourning the loss of some beloved ones (Voltage really went all BAM and just stopped updating all my faves right there together, huh).

That said, I've also been through 2-3 mobile devices and unfortunately for me, somewhere during the switches I lost access to a couple of my Voltage accounts (yes, yes those are tears. Yes, I am sobbing). It was, is, and will continue to be super upsetting considering all the time and effort that was put into building those accounts up. Sigh.

I say that to say, if we were friends on a game before, it's possible we no longer are as I've had to restart a couple of them. With all that in mind, here's what I'm actively playing right now and my friend codes:

Be My Princess Party (New Account, FML) - 4992391

Court of Darkness - 4994217

My Forged Wedding Party (Old Account, HOORAY) - 2916368

Mystic Messenger - No code (they should implement a social aspect)

Samurai Love Ballad Party (New Account) - 4993678

Samurai Love Ballad Party (Old Account, HOORAY!) - 2906704

Sleepless Cinderella Party (New Account, FML) - 4993479

Please let me know if you plan to add me as a friend so I can make sure I have space and know it's not just a random add (which I am okay with too). I am currently checking into these games and playing them daily. I don't have as much free time to devote to otome games anymore, so I've been trying to focus on the ones I loved the most before and wanted to read more of.

I am also on Mr. Love: Queen's Choice, but right now I'm really lacking the motivation to be active on it like I was when it first came out. That said, I'm still more than happy to have new friends there:

Mr. Love: Queen's Choice - 10271553

My plans going forward: I don't have a clear direction where I want to take the blog at this moment. I might do some asks and AUs etc like I used to when I have some time, but mostly I'll probably just reblog a ton of stuff and continue sobbing over the loss of the lovely games. I'll be renovating everything soon to a more modern, crisp look and will be updating my gameplay page to include all of my game codes and the routes I'm playing/have played.

So, I’ve been playing through the post-game of DQ11 and just got to a significant part before facing the final boss. As I’ve been getting a clearer picture of where exactly the post-game is headed, and where it won’t be headed, something’s really been bothering me.

Putting this under the cut because it became quite long, but... does anyone else feel as though the way Jasper’s character arc was handled is MASSIVELY incongruent with the rest of the writing and themes of the game?

To get straight to the point... no matter what happens, we never see a good conclusion to his character arc regarding his feelings of jealousy towards Hendrik. His death in the first timeline was very unjust.  

Because Jasper’s situation is almost identical to Mia’s. The game does a lot to make you sympathize with him and believe that he too was just a victim of Mordegon corrupting him to use as a pawn. The game never clarifies how long he’d been under Mordegon’s influence, but if it happened soon after the destruction of Dundrasil then it's possible that Mordegon had been corrupting him for nearly 16 years.  

We get to see a flashback of what he was like when he was younger: definitely on the naughty side, but with good intentions, and he had Hendrik to keep him in check. 

Even when he’s much older, during that pivotal flashback where Hendrik is being exalted by the king, he shows no sign of jealousy or being a bad person. He's happy for Hendrik and even holds out a hand to congratulate him. It isn’t until Hendrik ignores him and walks past him that Jasper starts believing that Hendrik views him as inferior and starts building up resentment and jealousy.

That flashback symbolizes that it wasn’t until they were older that their friendship started to sour. And that it didn’t sour because either of them wanted it to; it was because of Hendrik repeatedly (and unintentionally) being a shitty friend, and because of King Carnelian repeatedly treating Hendrik better.

Then at some point after Dundrasil falls, Mordegon approaches Jasper, earning his trust and twisting his feelings towards Hendrik over the years so that he can make Jasper into his perfect pawn.

Jasper did lots of unquestionably evil and terrible things over the course of the game-- I’m not exactly trying to be all “Jasper did Nothing Wrong” with this post-- but one has to wonder, how much of his extreme behavior was simply the result of Mordegon brainwashing him into a crueler person over the years?

We see the exact same thing happen to Mia, after the destruction of Yggdrasil. She felt resentment towards Erik for leaving her behind in the cave, Mordegon took notice and took advantage of it, so forth. In Mia’s case, Erik sympathizes with her feelings despite all the bad shit she did, and tries (And succeeds! It’s not optional!) to save her from Mordegon’s influence.

Yet with Jasper... Hendrik doesn’t even try to EMPATHIZE with Jasper. At the ruins of Heliodor castle, he immediately condemns his childhood friend to death for his actions without first trying to get him to rethink his villainy and seek redemption. He never acknowledges that he was somewhat responsible for driving Jasper to that point, nor does he ever apologize.

This isn’t necessarily out of character for Hendrik, considering how willing he was to kill Jade, and how he’s been shown repeatedly to have problems with putting himself in the shoes of other characters and judging them without consideration for their perspective (he even acknowledges that he has this problem and tends to feel shameful about it afterwords).  

But what bothers me is how at no point do any of the other party members ever discuss Jasper with Hendrik to get him to consider Jasper’s point of view, and how even after seeing Erik successfully save Mia, Hendrik never considers the possibility of saving Jasper. We never find out if Jade knew Jasper well either. She calls Hendrik “Henny-Wenny”, and it’s implied that Hendrik played with her and helped watch over her, but did Jasper? Judging from the way he muted the Doge’s kid, it’s possible that he doesn’t like children and thus wouldn’t want to spend time playing with Jade. It would’ve been a good way to explain why King Carnelian would treat Hendrik better. But I digress.

The worst part is finding out how Hendrik actually feels at the very end.

Why the hell does he wait until Jasper is literally dying to tell him all that? Imagine how much could’ve been avoided if he had simply communicated with Jasper properly to begin with. In terms of writing, Jasper’s fate is largely left in Hendrik’s hands, and the writing doesn’t do a very good job of dealing with that. Everything seems so irrational and inconsistent when you look at the way Mia’s character was handled in comparison.

(^Mia wasn’t even aware of what she was doing under Mordegon’s influence!)

I had been hoping that in the post-game, after the protagonist goes back in time to defeat him at Yggdrasil, Jasper would perhaps get to live and face redemption. This was supposed to be a happier timeline after all. But instead Jasper dies MORE brutally and with less development than before. I actually didn’t mind this second death because it made perfect sense-- he was blowing Mordegon’s cover by calling him “master” and begging for his help in front of everyone; Mordegon had to save face somehow.

That is, I didn’t mind... because I had assumed something would go wrong again and we would be going back in time more than once...  

But by the time I got to the scene with Morcant/The Seer, I started realizing that it was only going to be “bittersweet original timeline” and “second timeline where literally every character, EXCEPT JASPER, gets a better conclusion”. 

We never get to see Jasper and Hendrik make up? We don’t get to see Jasper apologize or redeem himself? Potentially return to the way he was ~16 years ago, assuming that like Mia he was evil largely due to Mordegon’s corruption?  Hell-- think of Marcello of DQ8, he was unquestionably evil by choice and way less sympathetic, yet he got a better conclusion. It just seems unlike Dragon Quest to handle Jasper’s character the way that DQ11 did.

I hate how the game does so much to portray him as a victim and get you to sympathize with him, then gives him a tragic death with no proper resolution or redemption no matter what. Don’t even get me STARTED on how it’s implied multiple times that he possibly had romantic feelings for Hendrik and what that does for his character.

FML, figures that I'd get really attached and invested in the one character who gets treated this unfairly by inconsistent writing. Feel free to agree with me, disagree with me, whatever. I just think he deserved better closure. I didn’t even expect to like him this much, but he ended up becoming the character whose motives I related to the most.

In conclusion:

Finals and Kisses || Lin Yanjun

Title: Finals and Kisses Pairing: Reader x Yanjun Genre: Fluff Word Count: 1123 words Summary: It’s final exam season and you’re stressing the hell out. Good thing you have a loving boyfriend whose there to calm you down.

A/N: Wow, Yanjun stans are being fed well with all this content lmao. It’s still final exam season for me, so it’s the perfect time for me to write this. Good to luck to all you who are suffering from their studies. You can do it!

lowkey annoyed bc i accidentally posted this before it was finished fml

but that’s not important so let’s move on

ahhhh it’s everyone’s favorite time of the year

aka final exams season

welcome to hell

you might as well believe you’re in the middle of an apocalypse since everyone in your school seems to be zombies, completely dead from all of the all nighters being pulled and all of the information being crammed into their heads

you convinced yourself that you wouldn’t put things off until the last minute since you wanted to end the school year with a bang

except the only thing you want to bang is your boyfriend omg i’m crying lemme stop i am so sorry your head against the wall

unfortunately, things didn’t go according to plan

instead of taking the time to study, you were off going on multiple dates with your boyfriend yanjun

it was one of those rare times where he was free from training to spend time with you, so you figured you could sacrifice a little study time for him

except you may have sacrificed a little too much time

two finals on monday, a portfolio on wednesday and two more finals on thursday within the upcoming week

this is actually my real schedule for finals someone save me pls

when yanjun found out you weren't studying bc of him, he immediately felt guilty and scolded you for putting him first before your grades

he was still really thankful and touched but you need to graduate bub

you were reluctant to hit the books bc why study when you have a handsome af boyfriend to cuddle, you know?

so yanjun came up with a compromise to have a study date

that way you'll actually get some studying done for your finals and get to spend time with him

the two of you decided on going to a cozy café owned by this sweet old lady who adored you and yanjun due to your frequent dates at her café

it was tucked away in a slightly less populated area, so you didn't have to worry too much about yanjun being noticed

entering the café, the owner warmly greeted you and ushered you to a table in the back to give you and yanjun some privacy

and now it was time to get busy

soon, textbooks and sheets of paper were strewn haphazardly across the table. a rainbow of highlighters decorated these papers as well as a plethora of sticky notes pasted onto them to mark important parts

realizing that there was so much information you didn't remember, anxiety and nerves started bubbling in your stomach. you could also feel a headache coming on

yanjun knew this wasn’t the time to joke around since your grades were on the line so he did his best to help you with the subjects he had some knowledge with

during the subjects he wasn't too good with, he wrote you encouraging little post it notes with funny doodles on them to make you laugh and relieve some of your stress

you can do it, babe!

just a little more to go

congrats on getting through this chapter, (y/n)

my baby is so smart

he would tuck these post its into certain parts of your notes and textbook so that you'll be able to read them when you got to those pages, making you smile whenever you came across one

before you knew it, almost two hours had passed

groaning, you dropped your head down. thankfully, yanjun's reflexes were super quick and he managed to slide his arm underneath your forehead before it collided with the table

"you okay there?" he chuckled

you whined against his arm, only making the male laugh at your misery

"we've been here forever and i'm still not even close to being done," you tiredly complained. "i'm definitely going to fail."

he tsked, "no, you aren't. you're psyching yourself out. i think you deserve a much needed break."

yanjun briefly left your messy table and you shoved everything aside for the time being

your boyfriend came back holding a tray with a hot cup of coffee and a slice of cake which he placed in front of you

"here. you need to eat to get your strength back up"

you sent him a grateful smile, taking a bite of the cake and welcomed the taste of vanilla dancing on your tongue

his eyes were watching you with a fond smile as you ate, making you shy from the attention

“what are you doing, yanjun?”

“exactly what you are doing. studying.”

“and what exactly are you studying?”

“you, of course. you’re my favorite subject.”

you pretended to gag from the amount of grease, making him grin and lean over to steal a bite of cake from you

when your little break was over, you found yourself slowly losing all motivation to study

“ugh i don’t want to do this anymore” you grumbled

“someone should have studied earlier” yanjun teased, easily dodging you as you moved to swat his arm in annoyance and whined that it was all his fault for being a distraction

“let’s make a deal. every time you get through a chapter, i’ll reward you with a kiss”

i’m so freaking cliche i hate myself but it’s yanjun’s kisses so i ain’t even mad

this immediately gains your interest bc kisses?? esp yanjun’s kisses??

sign me tf up

“deal”

throwing yourself back into your textbook, you finished the next chapter in record time

“done! now where’s my kiss?” you eagerly told him

yanjun laughs at your enthusiasm before raising your hand to his lips, gently kissing the top of your hand in a princely matter. while the gesture was still super sweet, you pouted at him.

“heeeeeey, that’s not what we agreed on!”

“i didn’t say where i would kiss you, now did i?” he smirked. “don’t mind me. move on to the next chapter, babe”

with each new chapter you finished, he granted you with new kisses here and there

your other hand, each of your cheeks, your nose, your forehead, etc

help imagining this is making me so freaking soft asfdehfhd

“and that’s finally the last chapter!” you declared, closing your textbook with a slam and smiling in victory

“congrats, babe. i’m proud of you” yanjun smiled as he gently moved your hair out of your eyes. “now here’s your reward”

as his lips met yours, you figured studying wasn’t so bad after all if it meant that this would happen at the end of it every time

hi hello

where can i get a yanjun to help me with my studying

i’ll even sell my kidney

ok i’ll go now

[bartsugsy]

you seem to really love rob/the whites are you going to be sad once it's over after the lachlan sl? (i'm sure rebecca will stay but it's different)

hahaha. in all honesty, i hate the whites with a passion, as a whole family. i think they all need to go (except seb

i’m just really satisfied on a very basic level by the idea that lachlan was introduced as a vaguely weird teenager and slowly over the past four years, has been developed into the soap super villain he was always destined to be. it’s just rare that you have that kind of potential built into a character and it pleases me that they’re really pushing it out to its soapy limits and rinsing as much mad drama out of him as they can - and robert’s relationship with the whites, much as i eventually want him to be free for the sake of his own character development, means that he needs to be part of lachlan’s journey, because no other character has as much rich history with lachlan/lachlan’s family as robert sugden.  

like. that shit just speaks to a part of my brain that enjoys full circle plot things.

but i’m excited for it to be eventually over, because all stories must end - and i’m excited that there’s the potential for them to go all out and have lachlan do any number of terrible things that most characters can’t do, now that he’s a real, entirely irredeemable soap villain. it’s just good to have a presence on the screen of someone that you know they don’t/won’t want to redeem (and on balance i think they’ve done a good job of keeping some humanity in there/showing his motivations, cold as they are, because it makes him more compelling) (i do think its arguably to the detriment of belle’s character, but i hope she’ll get some more good content out of it for a while to come, enough that it won’t really matter)

with rebecca... i mean, again, regardless of how i feel about the individual whites, my preference is that they all leave because none of them add enough to the general landscape of the show (although fml i’m mad that they haven’t used joe as well as they should have and that they’ve basically dropped all of his antagonism with multiple characters, including jimmy and robert and i hope they fix that at some point). i don’t know if she will leave although as always, my problem with her is that she isn’t much of a real character. lachlan and ross are her only compelling relationships and both are leaving in the coming months. idk, i just roll with the rebecca flow at this point lololol.

but honestly... i mean, as long as rob and aaron have some sort of storyline post-lachlan, which i’m sure they will, i won’t be sad. i just want them to tie everything up in a way that’s compelling and fun to watch - and the lachlan/rebecca scenes are peak insane and dark and really really great tbh, so that’s a good step towards that.

idk basically, i’m having a good time - but a chunk of that enjoyment is knowing that it’s all eventually amping up to a close and all stories need a beginning, middle and an end.

(except robron who will last forever)

07/01/2022 133.4 lbs

Slowly, ever so slowly losing that water weight that came on from that horrible binge week. But I’m definitely fighting for motivation now, day 3 or whatever. But I have to remember what I’m fighting for… I want a slimmer face, a skinny body, and I do not want to continue gaining weight every year!! That will be the biggest fight. I’m also stressed about my job. Next month is when we go back to school, and I really don’t want to. I am mostly stress free right now, I can focus on myself. Not so when work starts back up… ugh. But what other job gives you this much time off? I should be grateful for that. I need to incorporate more exercise into my days. It’s hard when I’m out in the middle of nowhere with nowhere I can safely walk. Fml. I hope I’ll have lost weight tomorrow, but I probably won’t have :/ I ate chips today. But tomorrow I can try and eat very little until we go to the movies, and then I’ll try to maybe just eat a salad when I get back? Idk. Let’s see if next week I can get down to 129?? That’s an unrealistic goal, but I could do it if I tried really hard.

[ryouverua]

Can this even be called training anymore

Clammy, has chills, lethargic -

YEAH HE DEFINITELY HAS TO GO TO THE BATHROOM

Are we all still buying this? Is this really the route we’re going???

Kaito and this whole situation will end up being the death of me fml

If anyone doubts how smooth Kaito is, never forget the moment he managed to pull this fast one over a trained assassin and a bloody detective.

So after some general mood-setting stuff where Kaito, once again, is forced to confront the fact that his two best friends are introverts - both who he practically dragged out of their respective rooms on two different occasions to get them to socialize with other people - he takes charge. Considering he enjoys having an audience for his big speeches, I guess it’s a good match - though not so much for ~ conversation ~.

“Are we really going to have our FTE now? In front of Shuichi? Isn’t that a little... inappropriate?”

“Kaito, Maki, what in the world have you been doing in your FTEs?!”

I know this is supposed to be a nod to their budding relationship but the idea of him asking what her favourite blood type is, as in Kaito thinking that this would be a natural question to ask an assassin as an icebreaker the same way you’d ask a detective about his favourite mystery novel, is absolutely hilarious.

Oh man when Sweetcheeks is calling you out for being bad at socializing, you’ve got a problem!

but I was terrified to for obvious reasons

Yeah, that’s actually a good question. What feels like 100 years ago, I made this note in reaction to Maki and what she said because what she said kinda made me react to... something, and actually sent me off on some of my original theories in the first place, about swapped, downloaded and/or fabricated talents. I mean, in the end it turned out she didn’t have that title at all but.... still. She was just so not into being a Child Caregiver, and she wasn’t exactly hiding it 8′D

Kaito where do you even get off telling someone not to be direct -

KAITO YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS

I.... I can’t believe it.

Maki.... got Kaito to stop talking.

aha no I’m just glad we’re finally hearing something from Maki that isn’t her roasting someone else 8′D

also trying and failing not to reference fukuin or wammy’s house or w/e orphanage the Kaibas were from

Makes sense. Since she was there since she was little, she was probably a fixture the others could rely on to always be there. I do find it a bit hilarious that kids love her, though? I’d say that ‘they know she’s all bark and no bite!’ but you don’t really get the title of ‘Ultimate Assassin’ without any bite!

I mean I guess if she dispatched kids the way she nearly did with Kokichi earlier, then the number of kids that like her vs not like her would becoming the overwhelming majority... >3>

I get that Kaito is trying to encourage her because being an assassin is clearly not something she likes about herself but I feel like suggesting something else that she doesn’t like doing as an option isn’t... that... great either...

Seriously, barely any of the students like their talent! It was pretty unusual in the last games for the students to disparage/abandon their talents, and it’s completely flipped around this game!

THAT IS.... SERIOUSLY SKETCHY AS HELL.....

Honestly I feel like that could have ended up even worse somehow.

A ‘willing’ sacrifice, so-to-speak. It probably work out for whoever was in charge for the ‘talent’ to be doing it from their own free will, even if they were coerced into it. I think I remember from Maki’s FTE (I think I’ve only done the one, though) - it was fashioned after a cult, right? Or at least, that was the front they were wearing.

Yikes. That’s... well, it’s super shitty. Explains the ‘no choice’ part, that’s for sure. So looking at the illustration, she can use knives and guns - but she doesn’t like katanas, if I remember correctly. How did they choose which ones she would go after? Did they need to pick up a ‘nobody kid’ for the sake of anonymity? Was she the only one from her orphanage chosen? I guess those are FTE questions...

:(

I feel like assassins come up in media a lot. Money is usually a big factor, but not so much when they’re meant to be seen sympathetically. I’m really glad they made the choice to tie being an assassin and her alias of ‘child caregiver’ here. It’s... interesting, though. Despite her declaration of not liking kids very much, she’s doing an awful lot for their sake. 

I’m guessing these were the ‘walls’ Kaito was seeing around Maki. With that said, I imagine Maki has built these walls up over years - so how in the world did Kaito clue into the fact that there was something there for Kaito to ‘save’? Was it something in the library meeting way back in chapter 1 that tipped him off? He defends her without any particular reason (that we know of) in the chapter 2 trial and after her talent reveal, goes out of his way to include her in the group he starts creating. I like that it’s going this way - it’s a bit overdone, but I’m a sucker for this sort of story - but I’m trying to pinpoint the moment something happened to send Kaito down this path, and I can’t... quite... find it.

Yeah... there is a 99% chance that you’re going to survive this. We’ve already had one ‘killer’ die, but that was only because it was part of his shocking reveal. If Kaito is going to lose to his illness, or be pushed to desperation because of it - and I’m still worried that DR is aiming to build him up just to push him off of his pedestal in order to reveal that he’s flawed and human, despite how he sees himself - Maki’s probably going to end up ‘carrying his spirit’ in the way Shuichi is carrying Kaede’s. For that matter, I guess Himiko is also carrying Tenko and Angie’s spirit forward, unless the game pulls a switch on me..

So that’s three likely survivors - which leaves two more (I don’t believe DR and them telling us there will only be two 8′/). I don’t think it’s a secret that I’m hoping Kokichi will survive because that could be wild, but if any of the others survive and have the same themes... K1-b0 and Miu could work as each others’ torch bearers, I think, so it’ll be one or the other (probably K1-b0?). And then between Kokichi, Gonta and Tsumugi... I mean, I’m seriously afraid for Gonta’s life this chapter. Tsumugi and Gonta seem to have a bond, so Tsumugi (or Kokichi, for that matter, he does seem to have a bond with Gonta) could carry on for Gonta? Or something? Or maybe someone else is carrying the torch for someone already dead and just hasn’t revealed it yet?

Shuichi: immediately goes for the heartfelt, incredibly heavy words of sympathy

Kaito: damn that sucks

It’s hilarious thought because every time it works. Every!!! Time!!! It’s like his answer to Angie’s Atua-loving hugs!

Shuichi’s face omfg I’m actually laughing -

oH GODDAMNIT in the moment I was swept away by his motivational speaking, and I guess that was the point, but now typing away here after the fact I can’t get over the irony of Kaito spouting off these lines when he’s hiding being sick from all of them!!! SOMEONE NOTICE KAITO’S SICKNESS DAMN IT!!!

God Kaito you’re such a sweetheart...

AAAAAAAAAH NEW MAKI SPRITE! AND IT’S FUCKING CUTE WHAT THE HELL

They’re all... smiling..... and it’s so precious... 

Please, please say this isn’t the last time they’ll be like this. I keep saying the Gonta and Miu death flags are waving nice and high, but this is also a pretty good setup for one of these guys to unceremoniously kick the bucket fff

good fucking luck

[immabakedpotato]

Happy New Year, 2022!!

Well hello there, hope your New Year has started off with a bang. I know mine didn’t...*side eyes husband* but you know...

Anywho, I was just writing in my journal about all the big changes we had over the year of 2021, then my thumb started hurting. Is this what it is to be old? Are my hands turning into fragile old lady hands? I was enjoying the sun and writing and everything, then my almost 29 year old ass had to have some kind of old lady hand pains. FML bro. So, as any rational human would, I just went inside and decided to sit at my computer and edit my blog. I changed everything. It is no longer a simblr, even though that was the main reason for it’s original creation back in 2013-2014. I’m old now (clearly) and cannot keep up with that kind of intensive blog. 

So, I decided....YOU KNOW WHAT! I like, have a lot of shit to say. Why not start just a simple journal blog? Very logical decision. Lol.

So here I am, in all my glory, almost 29 with old lady hands, 3 annoying ass kids and a husband who is just as annoying. I live in a subsidized apartment, have an addiction to THC and nicotine and am currently on meds to help stabilize my stupid brain. My life is definitely not where I wanted it to be, coming into 2022. But I am hoping that 2022 will be my year where things actually start changing for the better and better. I feel 2021 was stagnant, depressing, hard. Even though we had stable housing pretty much the whole time (aside from a scare here and there) living in these apartments gives me serious anxiety. I am not allowed to smoke weed/have any kind of consumption of THC, alcohol, etc. This is drug free housing. But like, the only time I truly feel good or motivated is when I hit my weed pen :( So it’s a constant struggle with myself, my housing, etc. I know that I just need to get out of here ASAP, we need to get into different housing so we can finally live in some form of true peace. I’m tired of stressing about it. I’m not supposed to have to be so stressed out all the damn time. Weed is 100% legal in OREGON GODDAMMIT. This is not how to live!!

This year I am (and have been before this new year) manifesting my new home. My new home that I am going to share with my beautiful family. I am manifesting happiness, security, safety, financial health and relaxation. I will not rest in my work towards my family home until I am sitting in my OWN HOME on the couch with my feet up and saying “this is it, we’ve made it”. That is my biggest dream, my biggest want, a place of our own. This apartment is cute and all, but goddamn it’s small. The two boys are sharing one room, even with more space than the RV we are still struggling to find time away from each other. I would be so happy and so blessed to be able to give each kid their own room, or even just have the toddlers share a room and have Maddox have his own room, either of those. 

I want a home where I can know that hitting my dab pen isn’t going to get me and my family kicked out of our housing. I want to be excited to check the mail for cool stuff instead of having anxiety over another “eviction notice” piece of fucking mail. I legit have PTSD over this shit, the housing authority does NOT fuck around and neither does Rogue Retreat, and I feel like I am constantly walking on eggshells as to not piss off the neither of them. And constantly keeping up with all the requirements of both programs...ugh. It’s all so mentally exhausting. I cannot wait to be in my own home. I might need to get a job or whatever but that’s okay too. I think that would also help me improve on my mental health, make new friends, have a purpose other than chasing poopy diapers around or cleaning dirty faces. As much as I have loved being home with them, I also want to stretch my legs a bit and get out of this “hermit” stage I’ve been in since I left my job back in March 2021. 

And when I say I’ve been in a hermit stage, I am NOT kidding. I have barely left the house. It doesn’t help that my anxiety had climbed up a whole octave after I left my job, and especially after I lost my car in August to a car accident. I felt I all the sudden had to turn around and give the reins over directly to the very man who made me feel I had to grasp for independence in the first place. I had to hand the wheel over to the most intoxicated driver in the car. That gave me so much anxiety. For two whole years I had managed our finances, kept a close eye on our money going in and out, made sure Kyle stayed home to limit his chances of relapse, and constantly felt like I was the only thing keeping the ground from shaking underneath my family. That I had SOME control over what was going to happen to my family. I had to give all of that control over to him. That was probably the scariest thing I’ve ever had to do. I am still here, in the background, monitoring and making sure all goes well. 

When Kyle is not at work, he is absolutely just a potato on the couch. I feel some days I am raising these kids by myself, especially after how many times he has been sick over the past couple months. Always something wrong. Always my job to take care of the kids. Now, I’m not saying that is how it ALWAYS is, but usually it’s not without some sort of complaint. And I get it, he works a hard and taxing job. But so do I. It’s not on the same level at all I know, and I am also a LAZY parent like him. So we take turns over who is next to attend to the kids when there is a problem. I kinda like our system, though I do feel I do a bit more work than him but that’s okay. He does more work than me in other situations. And I understand the need to just veg out on the couch and pretend you don’t exist for a while to heal over how hard working is. I get it. I don’t even know what I was complaining about in the first place here, but yeah.

I just want a home for my damn family goddammit give me one

give me a million dollars universe

make me riiiiiiiiich

I have that problem all the time -- Tumblr will decide to just not show peoples’ posts on my dash. Which is why I rummage around in the Archives a lot. Sometimes Tumblr just can’t be trusted. >_>

8 Question Tag

I don’t feel like doing much so

Thanks @nctimagery for the tag!

Rules: answer the eight questions given, then write another eight for the people you tag to answer!

@nctimagery‘s questions:

1.) If you could go overseas with a kpop idol, who would it be and to where?

I’d go with an English speaking idol, probably Ten or Johnny or both what because Ten’s my bias and Johnny just seems like he’d be hella fun to have around! Maybe Winwin because I can speak some Chinese :D But I’d want to go on a tour of Europe! Europe is so full of culture and history and it’s really my dream to go there. I’d want to see Paris, Vienna, London, Athens, Prague, *lists every other city in Europe*

2.) 2 favourite songs from each of your bias group(s)!

Just two? Are you kidding me?! Fine...

EXO- Promise, Love Me Right

NCT 127 (is this cheating)- Fire Truck, Paradise

NCT Dream (this is probably cheating)- My Page, Walk You Home (dude their last album was great)

BTS- Young Forever, Spring Day, Not Today (fuck the two song rule okay all three have a nice spot in my cold heart)

VIXX- Eternity, Beautiful Liar (that counts you can fight me here and now)

SEVENTEEN- Don’t Wanna Cry, Adore U

Monsta X- Stuck, Steal Your Heart, Fighter (again fucking fight me)

3.) A trait of an idol that you wish you could have.

Their motivation and hard work! I know it says a trait but I think the two really go hand in hand. I have motivation, it’s just it’s not always... available? I work hard at most things too, it’s just I’d love their undying passion towards their work.

4.) How has stanning your bias groups changed your life, if in any way?

Oh lordy. Well, for one thing I’m more expressive when I play music. Before, when I practiced piano, I’d be kinda emotionless while playing, but now I find it much easier to express myself! I don’t know why, maybe it’s because I’m now better at expressing my fangirling emotions, but hey it helps, whatever it is. 

Stanning groups has also inspired me to work harder (see the last question my dudes) at school and music and to try a few new things (like fanfiction!). Without K-pop, I probably wouldn’t’ve made a hobby of writing and idk if I’d even be writing stories with @tanzderwhat. Oh god. That’d be a nightmare.

5.) Describe your country and what you love about it!

Well... I live in America. I guess I really like the diversity, especially where I live, because I can get to know more cultures and also pick up a few words of various languages (especially Spanish lmao). Uh... what else... there’s lots of good universities here too? I can’t think of much right now fml with that orange cheeto in the White House.

6.) Your favourite food that you would love to share with any tumblr blog/ idol

ANYTHING WITH POTATOES. I love potatoes to the moon and back (unless they’re rotten/raw ofc) and as long as it isn’t too spicy or has too much stuff I dislike I’ll eat like. Any potato dish in front of me. 

7.) 5 qualities that you think are very important to have in this world.

Well, let’s see...

Motivation/Hard Work- You can’t get anywhere without these qualities. These are what make you stand out in the crowd. If you work hard, you can do almost anything you set your mind to (unless you like wanna turn yourself into a bug. though idk why you’d wanna do that)

Realism- I don’t know if this is like a trait but you’ve gotta be real. I’m not saying be pessimistic about everything but you can’t always live off of blind optimism. Sometimes you need to know when to take a break or when to just stop for a while. You aren’t a robot. You can’t do everything right then and there.

Curiosity- You’ve gotta be curious! You have to always want to learn more about things you encounter. It’s okay to not be as interested in some things as others but! In the things you like, especially, always do your best to learn more! Fill up that brain of yours with knowledge!

Responsibility- Right, so I joke about procrastination a lot but I really rarely do so. Make a plan and stick to that plan and you’ll find that you’re getting a lot of stuff done! Even if it’s just a relative plan like okay, spend a couple hours on world history homework and then practice piano for an hour, then eat dinner and read for some time, that’s better than nothing.

Creativity- We’ve gotten this far because some individuals thought of better, more creative solutions to problems at hand. Be creative in solving problems, in writing, in your homework, in any aspect of your life. You can be creative in solving math problems or doing chemistry homework- creativity isn’t limited to the arts. And creativity isn’t bad- your method/solution/etc might seem crazy at first, but you never know- it might work!

8.) Your dream job and why

Well, I really don’t know what job I want right now... just something in the STEM field. I’m thinking maybe a chemical engineer or software engineer, mainly because I think coding is really interesting (I’m taking a coding class this year!) and I absolutely LOVE chemistry. Those jobs are tentative though, I don’t have a fixed path yet.

My questions:

1. What are your top three favorite books (not fanfiction pls)?

2. What subject do you like most at school?

3. Do you play any instruments? If yes, which ones, and do you enjoy it?

4. Top ten fandoms!

5. What’s your guilty pleasure?

6. Top eight favorite songs!

7. What do you like the most about writing?

8. Where do you get inspiration from writing?
