✭INFAMOUS UPDATE IS HERE ✭
238K -> 457K WORDS
Please read this post before playing! It's finally here! After five months of writing and rewriting and salvaging and crying and sweating and bleeding I finally finished sort of kind of! Firstly, I want to thank you for your patience and understanding over this duration of this rewrite. It was stressful at times but I'm happy with the end result and I hope everyone else will be too :)
This will be the last chapter I release without beta testers/other sets of eyes so expect errors. I can playtest until my fingers turn blue but I'm just one person </3 I'm bound to have missed stuff.
Please let me know of errors! I tested it a few times with no problems but we know how it goes lol
IN THIS CHAPTER THREE UPDATE:
drama
mayhem
chaos
some betrayal
some surprises
just...read it lmao
PROLOGUE - CHAPTER 2 CHANGES:
**chapter two was too large of a file to upload on dd so I had to split it last minute and I uhhhh dont know how that translates in the demo but it should work lol please let me know if its wonky!**
fixed up grammatical errors and typos
expanded some scenes and added some more choices
you can now choose that your mc has "changed" in some way (drinking, no longer drinking, partier, no longer a partier, negative, positive, attached, detached, or a general default. I was asked to add an MC who "gets around" or hookups a lot but I'm still debating on whether I'll add that since there's already quite a bit lolol)
you can choose to have changed your band's genre before/after seven
TECHNICAL CHANGES:
you will be able to explicitly state your sexuality in the beginning. this was a big ask and I apologize for not doing it earlier! I wasn't good at coding when I started and I knew I always wanted to make the genders separate from MC's sexuality but I didn't know how to do that at the start :) So you can still choose the genders of the ROs for story purposes and variety. IF YOU DO NOT SEE ROMANCE OPTIONS THAT IS NOT A BUG. You simply chose a RO gender that doesn't correlate with the sexuality you chose for your MC. Having said that, if you do see a romance option available and it's not supposed to be there please let me know! That means I may have missed it coding-wise.
the stats have been all fixed! I've added all the necessary variables and such. The stat portion of the game has been updated with the appropriate pages but they're not finished. Still, the stats should be fine.
You will now have confessionals in the stat page! The feature still isn't a thing yet because I haven't come up with the confessionals lolol but you can click on it to see what it's about. Essentially, as you progress through the story you will be able to see confessionals from the cast of Infamous throughout. They disappear and appear periodically so if you miss it, THAT'S IT! You won't get a chance to see them again until MC watches an episode where it's relevant.
There is now a: Discography page, Infamous wiki, botb cast and staff page, and other characters page for organization. Those are not finished but they're there!
I changed a few stat names but their functions remain the same.
You will be able to choose how you would like to be described (masculine, feminine, neither, both).
O is officially gender-selectable.
You can set the genders of the ROs at the start or wait till you meet them.

I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER | PART 2
AN OBX SMAU
Tumblr media
synopsis: the summer after graduating highschool was the dream. after years of tedious hours at school and of nonsensical drama, you are finally an adult, but most importantly? free. or so you thought. after a tragic incident the night of midsummers, the four of you decided to never, ever speak of it again. everything was going to be okay because only those present that night knew the truth, right?
pairing: exbf!jj x kook!reader; rafe x kook!reader
cw: guys, it’s a slasher story so gore & angst (troubled family relationships, violence, breakups, etc.) comes without saying. if you’re not comfortable with that then don’t read, i totally understand.
a/n: we're just going to pretend i posted this on may 23, ok? ok. because life update that absolutely nobody asked for at the end which is lwk a crash out (you don't have to read it lmao; it's not important lol) psa that english isn't my first language y'all so bear with me and i may or may not have proofread... i also queued this earlier so i am not posting in real time if that makes sense
anywayyyy, that's not important atm so drum rolls please!!!
PART TWOOOOOOOOOOOOO
WHO CHEERED? please bear with me, i was going THROUGH IT YALL BUT IM OK NOW (?)
I REALLY HOPE YOU ALL LIKE THIS, I LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH I CANNOT BELIEVE that even one person is reading this let alone a HUNDRED OF YOU? AND BEING ASKED TO GET TAGGED???? i feel so cool. alright, i need to calm down, i'm an adult
i'm kinda making it up as i go so i guess incoherences might be here and there lol but...
we're so back
Tumblr media
may 23, 2025
“ladies and gentlemen, this is the final boarding call for flight a1 234 with service from charleston to kildare. we are now inviting all remaining passengers to proceed to the gate for immediate boarding. please have your boarding passes and identification ready. once again, this is the final call for flight a1 234 to kildare. thank you for flying with us, and we wish you a pleasant journey.”
you took out your wired earphones with a sigh, before gathering your bags and heading towards the counter.
after waiting in line for 10 minutes and boarding the plane, you took your seat in first class. the flight attendant offered you a drink and a snack and you settled for a coke with pretzels.
the flight was supposed to take off at 9 but, of course, it was delayed, finally leaving at around 9:30. you put your earphones on again before leaning back on your seat and took a nap for the rest of the flight.
turbulence woke you up with a panic. your palms began sweating, before sitting up and glancing around with wide eyes.
an appeasing voice tore through the panicked whispers, “all passengers must remain in their seats as we land. these turbulences are normal, so please remain calm.”
easy for you to say.
cold sweat made your shirt stick to your back while you gripped the seat until you heard the pilot say that you had arrived at kildare safely.
thank god.
after wiping the sweat off your forehead, you took a deep breath before turning off the airplane mode on your phone.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
you sighed when you saw your mother’s messages, re-reading yesterday’s conversation with a frown. this summer was going to be unbearable. and you didn’t even want to get started about the whispers and rumors that were bound to seep their way into your life.
but what definitely freaked you out the most was that message you had received from ‘unknown’ because this was not pretty little liars. you didn’t know what to do because for one, what were you supposed to say?
call the police and be like, “hey, me and my friends accidentally killed someone a year ago, and we got rid of the body. now someone is harassing me and sending me news articles that could possibly be linked with what we did. please, i need protection.”
be so fucking for real.
the passengers began to evacuate the plane, so you were at the airport for another tedious 15 minutes until you called your mother.
“hello?” your mother’s stern voice came through the line.
“hey, mom. i���m out front by the taxis.”
“alright, i’ll be right there.”
you hung up and put your phone away, pulling your suitcase along until you reached the curb where people were being dropped off and picked up. you suddenly saw a familiar blonde head, but before you could duck out of sight you made eye-contact with a girl you had once been as close as sisters.
sarah’s face turned shocked to overcome with uncertainty before it turned into something like regret and a bittersweet smile. she rushed over and threw her arms around you before you could process the whole situation. the scent of sunshine and salt air along with tropical fruits enveloped your senses. only sarah cameron could smell like sunshine and beaches, but there truly wasn’t another way to describe her.
you broke the hug first, only for her to set her hands on your arms with a small smile.
“it’s been so long since we last saw each other! i can’t believe it, i didn’t know you were coming back.” her warm brown eyes searched your face for answers, but you had long since learned how to not put your feelings on display. to anybody else you looked bored but inside? your mind was filled with racing thoughts and ways to escape the uncomfortable situation.
“yeah, i just finished my first year at unc.”
she let go of your arms and palmed her forehead, “of course! how was it?”
you grimaced, “not my finest moment but,” you shrugged. “at least that’s over with.”
sarah gave you a sympathetic smile before you heard her name being called out. you saw ward calling for her, the rest of her family probably already inside.
“i’ve gotta go, but it was really nice to see you. don’t be a stranger, ok?” she kissed your cheek goodbye and ran to the car before getting in.
a honk brought you out of your daze and you turned to see your mother’s red mustang making its way around the curb. with a sigh, you dragged your suitcase along and put it into the trunk before getting in the front alongside your mother.
your mother was wearing oversized sunglasses that she didn’t even bother to remove. she only gave you a tight smile and a quiet how are you?
“i’m ok, just tired from getting up early. and you?” your tone wasn’t exactly cold nor warm in an attempt to avoid an outburst from your mother.
once she was on the main road, she revved the engine until she was driving 60 miles per hour. “i am well, just worried about you, but i know that now is not the time to discuss this. which reminds me, we are going to have dinner with your grandparent’s monday night at ocean manor. we could go to pick out some clothes in the morning and grab lunch if you’d like.”
your heart squeezed at her words. you knew it was her way of extending an olive branch and if you fucked this up, this summer would be hell.
Tumblr media
you plop down on your bed with a sigh, not even bothering to take off your shoes. instead, you kicked them off before turning to your side and looking out the window. from your room you could see the beach and tiny people riding the waves like dolls with their surfboard toys. as a kid you remembered thinking how bad you wanted to be like the cool kids of figure 8 and when you met sarah, well, your dream life had come true.
you remember your first day at kildare academy and how much of a movie-like scene it had been for you, having moved from your hometown at thirteen and being absolutely wrecked at leaving your friends behind. you’d made sure to enter the classroom just when class was about to begin so you could avoid the awkward gawking of the other students when they see a new, unidentified human. the thing about kildare was this: you were either a kook or a pogue but of course there were rankings among the kooks. kook royalty. which you learned the hard way. to them, by being a newcomer you were slightly above a pogue but not enough to be a full on kook. so, when you were assigned to kiara carrera as your lab partner for the rest of the school year, you hadn't realized that your social death sentence had been signed. everyone around you had snickered (apparently they knew something you didn't), a group of the prettiest girls you’d ever seen staring at you with a mix of curiosity and malice. you could tell the blonde girl with the caramel brown eyes with a fresh manicure, perfect hair and makeup along with an iron pressed uniform was the leader, the other two girls looking very much like karen smith and gretchen wieners.
kiara on the other hand… let’s just say she was, well, different. she had a pair of dirty converses, her uniform looked clean but not like she’d tried to make it presentable, chipped blue nails along with chunky bracelets and beachy jewelry. her hair had the prettiest curls you’d ever seen, two small braids framing her face which was adorned with a smile that made you feel like she knew something you didn’t.
seriously, everyone around here was incredibly good looking. did they put something in the water? it was hardly fair.
she peered over her shoulder your gaze landing on the group of girls that had caught your attention earlier, “i see you’ve met the plastics of figure 8.”
oh so it was obvious.
you let out a snort but caught yourself when the teacher looked at you with raised eyebrows. kiara was chuckling next to you, “seriously, on wednesdays they wear pink.” you giggled and for the first time since you arrived, you felt less lonely.
“so, what’s the deal with regina george?” your voice held a mocking tone, and you saw kiara’s eyes light up at your remark. soon after you became great friends and practically inseparable. you shared a lot with her, particularly feeling out of place when you didn’t belong to either side of the island. you could be considered a kook by wealth but not by their societal standards, which also summed kiara up perfectly. with her pogue father and kook mother she faced discrimination by her peers, but more so because of who she decided to spend her free time with and call her friends.
a certain blond came to mind, your heart sinking to your stomach and you sensed a crash out near the corner. your phone buzzed, causing you to nearly jump out of your skin.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
your phone fell to the floor with a clatter when you clicked on the cursed link.
Tumblr media
body found by local fishermen. you weren't even able to read the rest of the artcile, a cold shiver running down your spine before panic began to set in.
fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck
FUCK
you ran to your bathroom, barely making it to the toilet on time, all the remnants of your previous meal purged out of your body. if only you could expel your sins the same way you wouldn’t be so repulsed every time you looked at yourself in the mirror.
you finally got up when your phone began buzzing frantically from your room. holding yourself up against the wall, the edges of your vision turned a little blurry, shallow breaths ripping through your chest until you fell to your knees near your bed. gripping the edge, you managed to turn and sit with your back against the bed before reaching out for your phone.
Tumblr media
great. now i have to see everyone at the goddamn club with their hypocritical questions filled with fake concern and kindness. i’m sure my mother has taken upon herself to uphold the image of her perfect daughter.
and to think that you were once one of them.
exactly. were. because they weren’t murderers like you.
you squeezed your eyes shut, covered your ears, and began rocking back and forth in an attempt to quiet down your racing thoughts, but they only got louder, until it felt like a thousand people were yelling at you, “murderer! murderer! murderer! murderer! murderer! murderer!”
Tumblr media
would we like to see rafe in the next one ;lkdsfakjsdflka
he was supposed to kind of pop in, but @inthelibrarybtw told me that it was shit and i was like, just say you hate me. THAT'S NOT TRUE SHE WAS A SWEETHEART ILY BABY IM JOKING <33 THANK YOU FOR HELPING ME
no but i fixed it because what i had written WAS confusing. i forget you all can't read my mind THANK GOD. i don't know why i say that like it's a bad thing LMAOOOO
but idk how i feel about the kook academy part but my mind is so random sometimes that i relive memories in the most incoherent ways so that may show up in the way i write/protray the reader. i need to learn how to be more objective lol but BEAR WITH ME. this may or may not be a self insert 🫦
also THE VOICES LMAOOOOO
i've never heard voices that i know of because if i am crazy then i wouldn't know if everyone around me is a hallucination and this is all made up in my mind and i've concocted every single piece of my life in my head. but then i also remember my life wouldn't be this fucked up if i was making it up and i also am not creative enough to create this world in my brain. jesus fucking christ somebody shut me tf up.
*accepting rafe cameron applications to fuck me stupid.
WHAT? WHO SAID THAT?
anywayyyyy
my beautiful stars: @countryclubwhore (ily <3) @onlyangel-444 (one of the prettiest usernames i've seen) @papercranesandinkstains (my soulmate i fear) @inthelibrarybtw (loml fr) @cokewithcameron (angel) @jaes-last-words (<33) @rafesbabygirlx (in awe with your mind) @ethanthequeefqueen (laughed so hard at your username btw LMAOO) @7-deadly-cats-main (im obsessed with you; am also patiently (key word) awaiting on that rafe dream scene in kms 🫦 NOT ME HARASSING YOU LMAOO IM SORRY ILY) @ewwwitsel (sweet angel) @rockkybbys (i tagged u cuz you asked for another part but lemme know if you prefer not to be <333)
if you wanna be added let me knowww <333
i am also not over the fact that people actually like this, i know i've said this multiple times and i sound incredibly obnoxious but it's still true. i love each and every single one of you and don't be shy to talk to me PLEASEE i promise im a nonchalant, chill, cool girl (...) i might take a bit to respond because i read it and i think i answered in my head or i haven't seen it or genuinely forget or know it's there but because i have no concept of time i realize weeks have passed when i go to answer💀💀 BUT I AM HERE
Tumblr media
unsolicited life update: i am ghosting all of my friends (which is really shitty i KNOW) and i'm not proud of it, i just get overwhelmed with so many texts that i procrastinate and then i end up going missing for weeks sometimes even a month soo DO NOT BE LIKE ME!!!! that is one of my biggest flaws and i really really need to do better because they don't deserve that at ALL; if it were the other way around i wouldn't put up with my ass. which i don't cuz like i would leave me if i could because it is EXHAUSTING. like omg, girl it's not that deep but wtv and lwk had a mini meltdown these past couple of days and may or may not have crashed out hehehehe
i will only say that i wish it had been for an interesting reason but no!! my brain just takes these executive decisions on its own because we're a bitch and she's the boss of me unfortunately :)
i also started this internship (?) for school credits at my local public defender's office and let's just say that i am beyond confused 95% of the time and i will complete my 1st week here tmrw. (yes i am supposed to be working as i write this, but shhh) i need to lock the fuck in.
xoxo,
gossip girl
Tumblr media
how i felt after saying that (i've never touched a cigar/cigarette in my life) that's also the love of my life because this man awakened something in me at the ripe age of 13. what? who said that?

Pinned post (updated!)
Regarding asks:
Requests are closedddd!! (I've been very busy with irl stuff so what I'm capable of drawing is my own ideas) IF THE REQUESTS ARE OPEN: - I can draw cookie run stuff, characters (please no OCs), ships romantic or platonic; - Also keep in mind that drawing takes a while and it might take time to draw/I might refuse;
Askbox is open, so it’s fine if you wanna send in an ask! - Literally ask me anything (except for nsfw topics) though it'd be cool if you asked about some stuff I'm into the most at the moment- /jk jk (unless? please do) - Please don't spam much, there are a lot of stuff in my inbox so it's a bit hard to reply to everyone. As much as I appreciate that you take your time to write me a message getting nonsensical messages a bit tiring and confusing sometimes... - Also, if you ask me something in the askbox there's a bigger chance I see it. Like any important/urgent questions -> go there. Or dms work too (though it's better if you didn't- I get very spooked) (Please do keep in mind that I'm low energy and a very anxious person so I won't reply immediately. Or sometimes not at all- It's my own issue and probably has nothing to do with you. I'm easily overwhelmed it's my biggest flaw lmao)
> Also you CAN use my art but CREDIT me please. Whether it's a translation/voice acting/etc, have fun! Just don't use AI and don't use my art for something harmful/malicious/rude. No need to ask for permission <3
Oh, and my other socials: > Twitter/X > Bluesky > AO3 > Tiktok > Strawpage (If you write there I'll answer on my twt)
Tumblr media
TAGS TO NAVIGATE: #mmelart - my art; #mmelwriting - fanfics/one shots/etc; #mmelask - asks I answered; #mmelyapping - me talking about some random stuff; ALSO IMPORTANT: #Kross Pain Sharing AU - all the post regarding that AU and fanfic <3 + masterpost (kinda) #Slumbering Truth AU - my crk AU comics, etc. + masterpost (For aldi au stuff go to - @aldiverseau - I haven't visited that page in a while and I'm terrified to do that. Rn it's just the archive of what happened during that day)
💥 Boundaries💥 (still have no idea what exactly I should write)
Basic DNI... I guess?
Please don't be rude. This blog is MY blog so if you have issues with me posting something there's a magical button called "block". If you're being jokingly mean indicate sometimes it even though most of the time I'd get that it's a joke;
Please I beg do not drag me into any dramas/discourses/whatever is going on (unless it's VERY important and dangerous). Proship/anti included, none of that. I'm just here to hang out and post my art I don't want to burden myself with more stress than I already experience daily. I'd rather go touch grass;
Do not use AI when it comes to my stuff. Come on now this should be obvious;
I don't think my blog has a lot of suggestive topics (like once in a millenia) but I suppose if you're under 15 DNI;
Speaking of suggestive if you stumbled on my nsfw twitter please don't repost anything from there as I'm uncomfortable. Also if you're a minor dni with it in any way, respect my privacy and boundaries and we're all cool okay?
For personal reasons stepping away from drawing utmv. Don't mind discussing it occasionally but rn cookie run is my main focus. Thanks for understanding;
GONNA ADD MORE SOON...
As long as you’re respectful and kind you’re welcome here! Treat others the way you want to be treated yourself <3
(last update 21/06/2025, day first and then month lol)

Hey! Are you ok with people tagging you in fanart they do/making fanart of your rewrite? Your Crookedstar rewrite has me in SHAMBLES and I need to make fanart for it like. Right now
I'm more than ok with it! I try to collect it as I get it over here on this post, which is also linked on my pinned. You should also check out the TVTropes page that @halogenwarrior maintains, I look at it myself time to time because she updates it pretty frequently and I like learning about tropes that way lmao
You can also feel free to ping me as you please on whatever thing you're making that I inspired! That thing on my pinned post asking people to not ping me on OTHER people's posts refers to people going to the personal works of others and making comparisons, asking me questions about my au in other people's replies, etc. Stuff that wasn't considerate to the OP.
All of BB's concepts are free to use and change as you'd like! Credit's not necessary, but I do like seeing what people are up to.
I only ask that you do not steal drawn art to pass off as your own, as I have collaborators you need to be respectful of, and would also personally like to consider doing commissions or adopts at some point. I don't want any mishaps about people thinking those would be free to use.
ALSO BONUS APPLEKIN MARKING SYMBOLISM:
I stopped writing the draft where I did because I had written a lot and had wanted to share at that point, but with the new update on BB!Oakheart being BB!Crookedstar's adopted brother I've already accounted for the apple-leaf-shaped markings that are on his eyes.
("Applekin" cats come with these very subtle eye markings that aren't particularly noticed in-universe, as an artsy visual sign of them all being part of a family. They're going to show up on everyone from BB!Appledusk all the way down to BB!Frostpaw.
You can see them okish on this chibi I did of Silverstream, but unfortunately last time I drew Oakheart he was dadly weaning sunglasses so they're not visible. Here is a picture of the crabapple leaf it's supposed to look like)
They begin to develop the moment that Crookedstar betrays Mapleshade. Slowly, subtly, over the course of moons. So slowly that no one seems to notice it except Crookedstar.
At first, he thinks he's just crazy. Worrying too much, seeing things that aren't there. But his brother's previously creamy eyerims start to sharpen. At the back corner, a streak lines the lashes back. The smooth edges of the color spike, as if needle-sharp trout teeth are carefully being planted, one prickle, one week at a time.
No one else seems to notice it but him. But he gets the message. Mapleshade "gave" him this family-- and she wants him to know she's going to take it away, too.
So please, feel free to do with that as you will~

BSD Locations- Yokohama Visit 2024 - Part 4
Tumblr media
It's getting close to the end with this one! Finally I get to talk about THE station from the OVA and obviously I have a lot to say about it LOL.
Links to all the parts:
Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 5
Tumblr media Tumblr media
20. Yokohama Stadium (S1EP9)
Only a few minutes walk from Nihon Odori station. I couldn't find the part with the name of the stadium for the life of me and I was also worried about it getting dark soon so I couldn't match the anime screenshot at all hnnhhh. I tried to walk around but I obviously went in the wrong direction lmao.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
21. Port Opening Memorial Hall (S1EP9)
Also called Jack's Tower, about 5 minutes walk from the stadium. It's nice that most of the places are located quite closely. It's a really pretty red brick building!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
22. Motomachi-Chukagai Station (S2EP25/OVA)
The station where the OVA aka my favourite episode of all time is based. I think I was positively vibrating with excitement at being there, that too at a subway station ASJFKDKFJ.
I took a train from Nihon Odori station to Motomachi-Chukagai station because I wanted to land up at the platform itself lol. Otherwise the station is approximately 10 minutes walk from the Yokohama Stadium.
It seemed like the signs had been updated because they looked pretty new, but otherwise it was easily recognisable from the OVA!! I was so impressed, especially with how even that specific wallpaper was matching so closely with its anime counterpart. If I had enough time I would have spent time looking for the ~exact~ spot from the anime.
The train and the seat colors are obviously different, but in the anime Kunikida was boarding a local train to Shibuya, and coincidently, even this train was headed to the same location lol.
OHMYGOD THE ESCALATORS. I was in utter shock when I realized this platform was not one, but THREE FLOORS DOWN IN THE BASEMENT. So now we know Kunikida doesn't skip leg day because he climbed three floors in like 30 seconds with a ticking bomb on his hand. Considering how accurately every location has been depicted in the anime, I'm sure even this detail is canon in the BSD universe and I have no doubt that Kunikida is definitely physically capable of doing something like that. Everything about this man is so impressive hnahfkglsjfj.
The pink ticket gate is the same and I love that even the Daily Yamazaki store colors match the anime counterpart lol.
In the last image, Kunikida is looking in the direction of Motomachi street, the same street from S1 when Dazai was supposed to bring Atsushi to the agency for his entrance exam and run into Kunikida, as well as that time when Kunikida and Atsushi were looking for "Yamato Nadeshiko" and run into Higuchi in S3. Kunikida probably walked down this very street in the OVA when he announced he was leaving the agency and headed to this station.
So my personal theory is that the ADA office is probably located quite close to this area!
Genius Tumblr user psylunari made a remarkable post here with all the sufficient evidence regarding the same theory, so make sure to check out that post as well!! :D
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
23. France Yama (S2EP21)
Located in a park just next to the Motomachi-Chukagai station. The flight of stairs I had to climb to get here killed me (my legs were literally feeling like lead at this point and I was considering ending it all lmaooo).
There isn't really a lot of open space here, as in the anime, and it's quite difficult to match the first image because there wasn't any place where you could sit and look at the windmill.
Just below France Yama is America Yama, this Rose garden where Fukuzawa was taking a walk in S2EP21.
Tumblr media
Regrettably, I missed this spot because I figured I'll return back after visiting the next spot (because I didn't want to climb back down and up again.) But the sun was already setting and I was already losing daylight at this point, so I had to move on. :')
I think this park also further corroborates my theory about the ADA office being located near Motomachi-Chukagai station. I could see Fukuzawa coming to this park close to the office for an evening stroll after work and it would also explain how Atsushi was able to find him there! (Maybe he frequents the place and had seen cats over there before, and that's why he had cat food on him ajdlslfsjk). It's close enough to their base too, and seems good enough for a meeting with the Mafia!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Recreated the scenes from the OVA with my Kuni-mochi hahahaha ((I was so embarrassed doing this in the middle of the station lol pls ignore how the second pic is out of focus))
Only one more part of the Yokohama Pilgrimage to go!! Please look forward to it!! ✨

i am sick like you as an incredibly casual fan who has since stepped back since october but was still following active blogs for it and i was always meaner than all of them so i like to watch it all go down and make fun of them but holy fuck its not even the half of it. there's a post somewhere that's one of those updates for "season 3 being possible" where one of the pieces of evidence is an actor from the show posted a picture of a woman who had 3 pigeons in front of her. and the person who posted this was like 37. 😭 they're all so insane and the second you say anything otherwise it's ruining hope and being condescending like oh my god it's a tv show girls...
to be honest like basic decency aside this entire thing is so ridiculous at its core i've never seen fandom brainrot at this level i know that's probably not TRUE and all fandom brainrot can end up like this but sooo many of them are so unself-aware it gives me a migraine. since when has throwing a tantrum a show got cancelled entitle you to getting another season 😭 they keep repeating that they deserve it and that they're so sad for the actors i even saw someone be like "making fun of the cancellation is ultimately cruel bc it means the crew who aren't millionaires and just everyday people are now out of a job, you're all being classist"... half of the ppl who post about it don't even ACTUALLY post about it anymore it's just been "renewal efforts" for two weeks now like holy fuck can you not take a hint... they seriously think asking netflix in the suggestion forms to do a season 3 is actually going to work if they just Believe Enough in the power of being 35
ok last ask I'm publishing for now bc it's an actual exit narrative lmao.
this touches on something I keep thinking about: the bizarre misunderstanding the fandom seems to have about how TV works. they talk about the actors and crew as if this one show was supposed to be their magnum opus and now they're all just sitting at home lamenting the loss of their livelihoods, and not signing new contracts, taking new auditions, moving on to other opportunities. they have this idea that they're going to persuade another network to pick the show back up, as if an entire TV production crew, sets, costumes, props etc. are a modular unit that goes on a shelf in a shoebox when it's not in use. it's very weird and kind of fascinating.

1. Have you read Circe by Madeline Miller + Song of Achilles ~ if you have what are your thoughts
2. In the original what was your favorite male character drawn out (mine was Hermes only bc I found him hot😓)
3. How long do you think it’ll take you to ‘finish’ your story, like do you have a set date: 2026,2027, even 2030🙈🙈
4. What’s your backstory on tattooing and art, was this your initial plan
5. Fave girl character, (mine is Minthe only bc she reminds me of my younger self since I seemed to only choose realtionships where I get here)
thank youuu
ahaha so many questions! I'll answer them as concisely as I can :>
1.) Song of Achilles is on my shelf, I've been meaning to read it all but I haven't been able to make time for it, I might try and do so before the new year! I've definitely heard great things :>
2.) Hephaestus! He gives me such older brother vibes, he just seems like a really chill and snuggly guy LOL Only complaint about his character design is the fact that he's constantly using running blades (sure they look cool but they're not practical for casual wear, you're supposed to use them for, y'know... running lmao) but that's really it, I think his arc with Aphrodite in S3 was poorly written tbh especially with how rushed it was, but overall not the worst treatment out of the cast.
3.) Definitely don't want it to take until 2030 LMAO It's gonna depend on a few variables, including update schedule (I'd really like to get back to posting once a week again like I used to but I don't think it's gonna be possible for a little while u.u""") and how long the final scripts come out to be. Ideally though I'd like it to be wrapped up within another year or two. This definitely isn't one of those "work on it indefinitely" type projects, I have an end goal in mind and I don't want it to take over half a decade like my last comic project did LOL
4.) Never expected to wind up making Rekindled or in tattooing. I'm kind of a "fall into it" type person, I do what feels right in the moment even if it's not what I initially planned for (within reason, of course! I've learned to sit on new ideas and plans for a bit before pursuing them to ensure I'm actually into them before diving in lol it helps me avoid the impulsive ADHD-fueled decisions 😆). I sort of had a plan for myself back in primary and high school - I wanted to become a video game concept artist, but over time as I got into making comics and after I graduated college, it just never really happened. It's never too late, of course, but right now I'm having a lot of fun tattooing and making comics in my free time ! I think I'd still be making comics even if I ended up in game dev, it satisfies my storytelling side haha
5.) If you mean specifically LO, yeah, Minthe here too. Which is wild because I remember when I was still a huge fan of the comic and was on the "fuck Minthe!" train. Now that I've explored the comic with a more critical eye, I sympathize with her way more and I really hope she had gotten a more satisfying conclusion. Still, she got away from Hades and Persephone's nonsense so that's better than nothing LMAO but I definitely want to explore her side more in Rekindled as the story unfolds, I have some fun plans for her <3

Reading SVSSS: Chapter 16
Tumblr media
For those who don't know, I am reading SVSSS for the first time and sharing my thoughts!
If you have not read it, there will be spoilers! Consider this a warning.
Also- if you want to follow along, I am aiming to post updates daily. You can find all the posts in the tag bloopitynoot reads SVSSS. You can also check out the intro post for context on my read.
Tumblr media
Hello! Another day, another chapter!
I really don't have much to ramble about today, but I am back on my tea. This is a new one from the ren faire this year- vanilla chai with sugar and milk. The cup is from the same ren faire (but purchased last year).
let's go let's let's go- I am already impatient to get into this chapter.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Last chapter we ended on a cliffhanger with Luo Binghe totally unconscious- we start this chapter with Shen QIngqiu ready to rescue his man and escape!
It's really so upsetting that he is going back to trash (two bar) spiritually energy in this body when he was so used to his mushroom Unlimited Power p65
RIP Luo Binghe's skull LOL he is really being tossed around like a rag doll. SQQ needs to be more careful. p66
MXTX said forget the only one bed trope, I raise you -> There Was Only One Coffin p67
Fuck. This is actually so scary 10/10 I would pee myself if a little skeletal arm was worming it's way into the coffin I was temporarily occupying (really anything in this book's reality would make me die of fright. as an aside I was talking to my partner about this while watching MDZS donghua yesterday, in the world of cultivators I would be a dumpling stall owner. I could never with the sword training and literal corpses). pp67-68
I CANT 'extenuating circumstances'. SQQ definitely: I just HAD to kiss his cute little forehead to save our lives. p68
i'm crying LOL "a person's abdomen is supposed to be the softest spot on their body, but Luo Binghe's was uncomfortably hard against Shen Qingqiu's stomach. The farther down he pulled him, the more he was sure that Luo Binghe had an eight-pack. Was that a rock slab down there?" p70
this keeps getting worse LMAO
OOOOO Meng Mo is back! Is it weird that I kind of love this guy? He has such a cool power and is a bit of a dick, but in the best and worst of ways. Him and Airplane give similar energy and I am not mad about it. p72
oh gosh! LBH is either "fatally ill" or "close to death" p72
wait- adding to the above point. he could also be mentally very unwell :( poor buddy -> it's likely this option. p72
Tumblr media
so even though SQQ is processing nothing , I think SQQ admitting (not naming the feeling but admitting) that he is feeling a mess of emotions about Luo Binghe is a big step for him! p73
Meng Mo seems to have a lot of feelings about LBH. I am not sure if it's just pride or what but whatever it is he is correct here, "The way this elder sees it, he (LBH) should either kill you (SQQ) or do you!" p74
PLEASE OH NO
I AM WHEEZING
+1000 Protagonist Satisfaction Points for touching LBH's "Heavenly Pillar" p76
IM DYING OH NO
WHY IS THIS EVEN A THOUGHT IF HE THINKS HE'S STRAIGHT "He couldn't exactly help Luo Binghe jerk off under these circumstances, right?!" p76 But like if not these circumstances he is cool with doing it in other circumstances???????????
oh no! SQQ blocking the blades with his bare hand for LBH p79
Dang. the Old Palace Master has been through some shit. p80
Are we getting more of Shen jiu's story??? We have Qiu Haitang here too! p81 (just as an aside because my notes did not revisit this, we do not get more of his story just weird little hints. That I hope Shang Qinghua clears up later). p81
What a terrible combo. Old Palace master is just butthurt Luo Binghe doesn't want him as a teacher or to marry his daughter and Qiu Haitang seems to be just a vile woman with a grudge against SQQ for some reason. pp82-83
Okay but as horrible as OPM is, that cultivation he's doing with his voice is kind of cool. p85
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Wait. Did the Old Palace Master have a thing for Su Xiyan? This is so fucking weird for LBH and he's not even conscious pp86-87
reading further the above point got so much worse omg :(((((((((((( I'm so upset for Su Xiyun. p87
It got even worse with the implications of what it meant for Luo Binghe in that sect. That terrible terrible man deserved that horrifying death. Fuck that guy! pp 89-90
OMG SQQ, basically half dead carrying LBH, barely got away from the death flower room, and here we have Tianglang-jun back on his bullshit. p94
SQQ is in such a bad state :o pp94-95
Is this another dime??? Our demon blood piggy bank for SQQ is now at $0.40 p97
YAY! Luo Binghe is awake! (is he going to be okay mentally though??)p 99
Why is Luo Binghe so mad? Like this man just nearly died trying to get you the fuck out of there p100
Fucking finally okay, it got better LBH is realizing what SQQ did while he was unconscious pp102-103
I'm glad they cleared that up (even though there was the other added miscommunication about LBH thinking SQQ was crying when he was actually just in a fuck ton of pain). p104
I am actually so glad that the discussion was interrupted before LBH found out about the dick touching being real LOL p108
MORE DEMON BLOOD. -> SQQ's dime bank is at $0.50
How many times does this man get kidnapped?
We really ended with him being kidnapped again and with Luo Binghe being conned by his own dad. That was so rough. -500 dignity points (not really but it sure feels like it)

More on David Hume
Since the announcement, David Hume's works have been on my mind. I don't claim to be like a scholar or anything, but I thought I'd share some of the online resources I read (I literally looked at my local library too lmao)
DavidHume.org: https://davidhume.org/
"Afterall.net" (?): https://afterall.net/quotes/david-hume-on-submission-to-government/
THIS is what Sunrise on the Reaping is supposed to explore. And I think we will see that through Haymitch and the characters around him, how easily a 'revolution' can fail in the face of force and the sway of public opinion (through the use of media and "the narrative").
^Same quote different source.
"Thegreatthinkgers.org": https://thegreatthinkers.org/hume/
^Same quote but with an added sentence, different source:
"OLLlibertyfund.org": https://oll.libertyfund.org/quotes/david-hume-ponders-why-the-many-can-be-governed-so-easily-by-the-few-and-concludes-that-both-force-and-opinion-play-a-role-1777
"Why people obey." That is such a huge thing and I think Suzanne Collins was so right in focusing on this subject. "Why people obey." What pushes a people to put up with oppression, how far does the oppressive state get to go before there will be pushback?
Ohoho I am so interested in this, it makes my brain light up.
From "Davidhume.org," "Essay IV. Of the First Principles of Government." https://davidhume.org/texts/empl1/fp
This is the good stuff.
"Upon these three opinions, therefore, of public interest, of right to power, and of right to property, are all governments founded, and all authority of the few over the many. There are indeed other principles, which add force to these, and determine, limit, or alter their operation; such as self-interest, fear, and affection: But still we may assert, that these other principles can have no influence alone, but suppose the antecedent influence of those opinions above-mentioned. They are, therefore, to be esteemed the secondary, not the original principles of government."
I thought this paragraph was interesting especially, considering what he classifies as the original principles of government and what he considers secondary.
I also think his work on Human Nature was interesting, though I have to admit I have not read ALL of his texts. That being said, I'd recommend checking David Hume out!!!
Regardless of the connection to Sunrise on the Reaping, I think David Hume's works are worth a read.
Okay I'm updating/adding onto this before posting: As much as I'd recommend reading his actual texts (which can be found at Davidhume.org), you can also look into summaries before Sunrise on the Reaping comes out if you want to get a more palatable version.
There's wikipedia, which I think is actually probably the best place to get a general idea of some highlights. Wikipedia link to the page on David Hume: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Hume
From David Hume's page, you can click the hyperlinks on the page to go to other related topics. Seems like common internet knowledge, but you can literally just go down a David Hume rabbithole from his dedicated Wikipedia page.
Personal notes for anyone reading this far: I partially wish I had done more work and taken more notes on his stuff, though I don't regret the level of knowledge that I'm currently at. I'm looking forward to learning more, especially from others online. I won't lie, I have this aversion to looking at peoples' opinions/analysis on things until I've done "sufficient research" on my own (girl u r not a scholar). I had to take a break when it came to actually trying to read Hume's original texts, which led way for the wikipedia idea (going back to my roots)
I'm also gonna be so for real and admit that some of his stuff is way beyond my understanding at this point. Like I understand the general points, but some of it is a little freaky, melts my mind a bit.
Anyway, one last thank you to Suzanne Collins for prompting this entire journey into learning more about David Hume. I cannot wait to see how some of his concepts are explored in "Sunrise on the Reaping."
Finally posting this since we are so close to SotR being released and unfortunately I do not have much more to add!

Project Moon Discourse part 6: It's Over (It's Never Over)
My project moon tag is dedicated exclusively for details on this situation make of that what you will
Last time on Project Moon: Geonggi Youth Union and Project Moon User Association (protesting fans faction) gets a legal threat from a an actual legal firm (none of them say as much, but the contents appear to be specified to the Youth Union, so likely a copy-pasted message). PMUA were asked to not ragepost until the Youth Union finished talks with Project Moon, but THAT completely fell through, so they just post it with a translated reply. Kim Jihoon gets MAD mad and says that the Geonggi Youth Union were going after PM to promote their campaign standing! Youth Union says what the fuck are you talking about, how would we do this when it was being handled internally and the public would only see us apologizing? The crux of all this legal threatening is because Vellmori resigned, therefore it wasn't 'unlawful dismissal'.
And now some new updates:
IT union vice chairman Hwanmin Kim realizes that on September 8 the Limbus Company Twitter sent him a cease and desist. Over Twitter DMs. I'm not kidding
A user has translated Hwanmin Kim's explanation of why talks broke down with the Geonggi Youth Union in this Twitter thread. In short: unless Vellmori expresses a desire to be reinstated their hands are tied, as the laws don't adequately protect workers. It seems the "political motivations" accusation is rooted in the fact that the YU is respecting that they can't represent Vellmori's worker rights unless she asks, yet are still campaigning against PM regardless.
Tumblr media
The surrounding climate of Korean gaming companies policing women's speech and how the PM case blew up because of that climate has been recorded in a news article that tracks situations as recent as the whole PM/YU/PMUA showdown. You can read it here. They reached Monggeu (the artist for Leviathan) for comment, and Monggeu noted "they asked me not to say anything too 'PC' when I was hired". Another staff member said PM treats workers 'not as people, but as parts'.
HamHamPangPang addresses a rumour that fan gifts are being thrown out, saying the stored items were damaged. Main response has been "with no notice though?" and "how the fuck did that happen?" with some gift-givers noting they have photo evidence of their goods being stored safely. Most people are actually rather forgiving of the manager (HHPP has been totally exempt from all the blowback towards PM's mismanagement thus far) and are casting suspicion on Kim Jihoon.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Most importantly of all, Kim Jihoon posts an apology on the Limbus Company twitter, which is a hell of a thing after the Notes App Ragepost. He far more cordially explains that he says he posted a notice with 'vague wordings', despite the fact that it very explicitly stated 'she violated our rules, and thus we won't be working with her in the future' - the only vague aspect was how Vellmori left the company. I suppose this is a polite way to say 'we fucked her over in hopes the DCInsiders would feel they successfully drew blood and leave the company alone'. At no point does he specify the original DCInside harassment beyond 'the artist was free to go after them legally', just as Hwanmin Kim mentioned.
Also this:
Tumblr media
LMAO
It's actually an otherwise reasonable apology and I think it's encouraging that he will finally work with his employees when they come to him with harassment, but he at no point is clear on why on earth it required international protest for him to do so.
But he had time to interject that he wants the Geonggi Youth Union, Hwanmin Kim, and the PMUA annihalated. OK dude
Personally, I support further protest and not spending money on Project Moon titles, this time strictly over refusal to denounce anti-feminist harassment or comment on their mismanagement. Also it's all but explicit the offer PM gave was "either resign and escape by letting DCInside feel they won or stay on and sue them by yourself, we don't want to rock the boat by helping you" and I'm pissed

mus_graveyard
The cabin had a backdoor. Since i saw no other entrance or exit, and i didn't wanna go back to wandering an empty map, i decided to go through it.
Curious enough, when i went to the door, it gave me a similar flavor text to when you open Spamton's shop door after his encounter, saying how NOW it's unlocked.
I did not mention this before, but i did in fact play the game at 3am, since that was around the time the anonymous person sent me the built (basically begging for me to play the game at 3 am lmao). But i didn't think too much about until i saw the door flavor text.
Perhaps... This door could only be opened at 3am? Like So Sorry from Undertale, you know? That could make a lot of sense considering what would happen next...
The back door opened to some kind of graveyard. It was dark and foggy. Also avery big zone, it almost felt like it was endless, with nothing but dead trees and what appeared to be looted tombs.
None of the tombs gave any interesting flavor text, except for one. The one you see in the thumbnail.
Tumblr media
The name engraved on it, iirc was something along the lines of "Annette Lil'Gal". I don't entirely remember the rest of the flavor text, but i think it described her as a little girl... There were no reactions from Kris indicating that they could've potentially known her, which makes me guess that this is supposed to be a reference that THE PLAYER is meant to understand?? But i don't know...
Do you guys have any idea what this is refering to??
This is also the last theme that played right before i met... Him. I don't know if i'll be able to post in the next few days, my birthday is coming soon and i'll be very busy, but i'll try my best to keep you updated.

Tumblr media
... in which i examine my self-ships and try to determine if i have a type - while i use self-shipping to explore different areas of myself, let's see what the boys have in common (or not) with each other and with my irl type, perhaps!
✨ meet the cast
SO! a lot of updates since i last posted anything self-shippy here... let's just take you through who i'm including! i'll be listing my main self-ships below per series, with any secondary ships in brackets. these are sometimes within the same au / universe i imagine (like the occasional kuroo / atsumu love triangle i brew up) whereas others are different (osamu would be his own, not in the same one as atsumu). i'll explain those at a different time.
haikyuu: miya atsumu (kuroo testurou, miya osamu)
diamond no ace: miyuki kazuya (takigawa chris yuu)
one piece: trafalgar law
attack on titan: jean kirstein
blue lock: yukimiya kenyuu
✨ mbti & personality
Tumblr media
mbti: this one is so funny to me bc irl i don't think i could have an extrovert bf. i'd bring up one of those mbti compatibility wheels with my own, but in short, they say that ENFP with any sensor type isn't great, any intuitive type is good, with INFJ and INTJ being considered the top matches (which i can see with law). i won't get into functional stacks and deep analysis for now, but i can see these relationships being pretty combative with the exceptions of yukki and law. i don't normally get along w too many estj irl, so it fits w enemies to lovers i guess. i do have quite a few estp friends and we vibe well but not much deeper. entj is always a wild card for me... the reason i used to not self-ship w kazuya is bc chris is an infj who i thought fit w me more, but i always felt myself gradually coming back to kazuya (refer to my username LOLL) so i'm like... ok it's a damn self-ship just do it haha
Tumblr media
enneagram: ok so i haven't delved too deep into enneagram & compatibility, so these i've pulled from pdb (which i know is controversial at times lmao but the best source i had). i can see kazuya and tsumu being the same time as i think having that type would really work for a pro athlete. laughing at jean's epithet of "the buddy" as well. it's interesting to me that yukki and i have the same enneagram but that i don't really have anyone too close - a lot of seeming opposites here but again, not too into enneagram (yet)
Tumblr media
astrology: ... i don't do astrology stuff whatsoever LOL so if someone could tell me anything that you see from this chart that'd be great :') i know people use like... detailed ones but this is all i know, so enjoy! i'm a pisces while jean is an aries (april 7), yukki is a taurus (april 28) tsumu & law are libras (oct 5 & 6!), and kazuya is a scorpio (nov 17) - funny enough, same bday as former ship kuroo!
✨ appearance & features
Tumblr media
facial appearance: not too much to gather from here besides the fact that none of my self-ships have blond hair or alternative hair colours for some reason (unless tsumu counts, which he does since his blond is so signature lol). other characters that i like do, though - just not my self-ships apparently! dark-haired boys are a weakness, i suppose.
Tumblr media
height & build: i like taller men, sue me hahahaha (to be fair i think a lot of anime / manga just make their guys tall so it is what it is). i do think the guys here tend to be mostly what is described to be "lanky" in build (or maybe just law and jean tbh) and keep in mind kazuya and yukki's heights are before any timeskips here soooo canonically i feel like they'd grow even taller lmao since ofc i age em all up.
✨ observations
honestly? not much to gather here except for personality. irl (for long-term relationships at least) i almost exclusively go for introverts. whereas in fic i really love cocky men that i'm at odds with (typical enemies to lovers fan ig). but i like it that way - it lets me imagine that type of relationship because in practice, it's not a pleasant experience for me lmao. like, it's fun to tease but deep down, i crave comfort and security which is what i have in my relationship rn. 🩷 regardless, love all my f/os and self-shipping makes me happy, so there !!
in the future, i'm looking to do this but on a ship level - so what dynamics each self-ship f/o would have with me, the type of au they're in, how i'd imagine things like their love language and such... let's see if i ever get around to that.
if you feel like doing smth similar, go ahead ofc - i made a lot in canva but here are the links for: height chart, mbti chart, astrology chart, enneagram chart
if you're still here, thanks for sticking around and i love ya lots 💖

👁👄👁 just a quick update to say that yes i am still alive. i didnt realized i hadnt posted anything since july of LAST YEAR. aughhh
here's what i'm actively writing on:
modern au hashira/reader + a bug in the house (like cockroaches, wasps, spiders)
Sanemi/Reader my "was supposed to be a collab but I got writer's block for a year so now I can turn it into my own thing" loosely based on the song "Constant Repeat" by Charli XCX
breath of the wild yandere link au (🙏🏾 forgive me lmao) i was just reading too much yandere fics at the time of conception and wanted to write my own. hence
stardew valley alex/farmer story.
stuff that i'm desperately trying to drag out of development hell and am actively pondering
ffxv au, oc fic (it's hard to put this in any sort of succinct way but here i go) OC is a devout from the ffiii era (which is basically like expert white mage) who gets a prophetic dream about darkness eclipsing the world, so she goes on a pilgrimage to all the crystals of her world (earth, wind, fire, water) to pray and try to get some clarity on that prophecy. she meets a disaster during her journey and as she's dying, she wishes she could have been more help to her people/the world. so instead of dying, she ends up crystallized (a la zelda from ss) and wakes up in ffxv times with no memories except her name and some of her magic. so her goal is to get her memories back, help the boys on their journey, and figure out the prophetic dream she had and what she can do to help. this story has been in development since 2017 and was a completely different story at its conception.... now it's changed quite a lot and actually merged with one of my other "development hell" stories. i've been having many daydreams about it but it's been so long since i've played ffxv that it's holding me back.
january 7th: sanemi fic set after the end of demon slayer where he's trying to cope with a certain person's death
if you're curious to know more about any of this, feel free to drop an ask! i love talking lol

Life update and vent post in bullets:
My department has been in chaos for weeks now
Our chair left for another country since last month for a combination of personal stuff
The chair did this at the height of enrollment period
There was no clear and formal turnover of responsibilities, admin offices are in conflict of who gets to be in charge of our dept
The chair, though saying that they'd still work remotely, dumps 90% of work on us
My colleague, just one year into the profession, has been thrust into admin duties unofficially, unprepared. The chair did not leave any concrete instructions for us
I help my colleague when I can, but we both have different things to do as well -- me with research projects and them with campus broadcast responsibilities. This is on top of teaching work
Everybody in our dept -- not just the faculty but also our students -- are left frustrated and angry with the chair for what it seemed like running away from work. The chair, who was supposed to supervise a class, left them without their grades and they had to beg for it so they can enroll this semester
The chair had the gall to post a photo of them relaxing -- in our official work group chat!
The chair had the gall to pass their work to us when said work doesn't have anything to do with the department
We are really really angry with them
Nobody wants the chair to return anymore lmao
And then the chair compromised our professional friendship with someone who's been very collaborative with us. Without us knowing
The chair has fucked up a lot and is still fucking up a lot -- even a thousand miles away
At one point my blood pressure shot down from stress and exhaustion
There are other things that involve money and funding, which are still keeping me stressed and sad
I'm presenting my research project proposal next week before a panel of uni officials, and I'm genuinely worried that some of them would reject my proposal due to 'differences in values' (i work in a catholic uni). I'm hoping it won't happen though
The stress and exhaustion won't stop
