will we get an update before the new year

Do you ever just lie to yourself? Because I told myself I'd have the rewrite done by christmas, and then when I didn't get it finished, I thought, well maybe new years---

But nope. Not gonna happen. There's still so much to do. I was gonna post a progress update on wednesday, but I'll share now.

Chapter 45 is nearly finished, as is 33. So there's like 5 chapters to re-write? I've hit over 450k now, so the end word count is definitely going to be in the 500k region.

I won't say when I will have it finished because, as we have proved, I am clearly a lying liar. Lmao.

As someone who lived in a home where it was not safe to be queer but their first love was their same-sex best friend, I really cannot emphasize the importance of characters like Charles Rowland enough. As someone who deals with shame from years of self-hate, repression, happy-masking, and being called a "Token ally" by even my queer friends while feeling wrong wrong wrong about it, and being the kind of person who just didn't "Look queer enough" or whatever the fuck arbitrary, exclusionist rhetoric people would casually hurl about, I just really can't believe we have a character like him.

He's complex and deeply scarred and I've never cared about a character like this before. I've never felt so "Seen." I can't wait to save this show because seeing him heal will be like a balm on my heart. His character arc is completely unique and handled with such care that it brings tears to my eyes.

That's all. I am just so deeply thankful for & emotional about Charles Rowland tonight.

you ever just have a lot, a LOT of feelings all at once about a character and not even remotely enough words or brainpower to FORM the words to describe everything you're feeling. so it feels like you may explode. yeah

So it really only took 2 races for them to decide that the guy they HAD to drop daniel for with 6 races left in the season wasn't good enough, huh? They denied daniel a proper send off befitting of the career he's had, ruined their long-term relationship with one of the sports most marketable people, and lost title sponsors for their junior/sister/whateverthefuck team all for 2 races for a guy they'd already passed over twice (now thrice :) allegedly). remarkable.

"Don't draw Elain with freckles!" "Don't draw Nesta with a low-cut dress and a RBF!" "Don't draw Lucien with dark hair and locs!" "don't use that song quote for this ship, it's reserved for another ships!" blah blah blah this type of policing is why being an artist sucks so much in this fanbase. If you see art that you don't like, just take a breath, hit the block button if you need to, vent to a mutual you trust privately about it, and move on. It's okay. The character is not going to get offended if an artist draws them a certain way, other characters won't get offended, they ain't real. If an art is drawn in a way you didn't imagine, it will not hurt you or impact your opinion. In fact, you ranting about it publicly only impacts artists because so many artists will see it and feel bad about their art and feel self-concious about how they draw from now on.

Fanart is not about being canon. When you accept that, then you're going to feel a lot happier in this fanbase. So please leave artists alone.

DOS2 fandom, show me your Godwoken? Tell me about your Godwoken? (For example:) Who are they? What is their damage? What do they look like? Are there any differences between their in-game model and how you imagine them? What is their fighting style? Who do they love and why? Anything else you'd like to share about them?

Everyone who sees this post, consider yourself invited. And feel free to tag your friends if you'd like.

@flower-khajiit, @divinityiswasted

Just do it. This is a threat.

EDIT: Also, there's no time limit on this thing. I don't care if you find it years later. Always happy to see some blorbos - show me.

the father, the son, the end of the world (x)

[ID: two digital drawings of three iterations of kiryu kazuma that are intertwined in a downwards sequence. the background is a night sky with two framing clouds, and city lights, moon backlightning the three figures. the colors are tinted blue, and the image is held in a frame that is transparent on the outer part.

on top, kiryu is shown in his yakuza 3 okinawa outfit, in the middle in his yakuza 0 pinstrip suit and at the bottom, in a black shirt as he appears in infinite wealth.

y3 kiryu curls his right arm around y0 kiryu's neck, hand in a fist, his right hand comfortably lying on top of lad8 kiryu's head. his expression is a deep frown, as he stares at the audience.

y0 kiryu is turned to the left side of the image, as if running away, his left arm resting over y3's left forearm, hand slightly curled into a fist. his right arm curls forward over lad8 kiryu's shoulder protectively, palm held upwards. he is frowning at something off-frame, mouth slightly open.

lad8 kiryu has his right hand in a fist over his stomach and the left one reaching up to hold y0's left forearm. his expression is blank, as he stares at nothing, mouth slightly agape.

The second image is the same, only slightly less dark for visibility. /End ID.]

hey so actually, how many people are afraid of leaving kudos on smut fics?

like, is this something that genuinely affects more than, say, 10% of people with an ao3 profile, or is this a made up problem.
