C&M - Gotcha Day
"I w-want to go hhhome..."
"I know, Danny." Marcus murmured, stroking the other man's overgrown hair as he laid his head in Marcus' lap. Fish sat purring in Danny's arms as he pet her soft fur. A pet petting a pet.
It's been a year. Ciaran hasn't shut up about it, either, happily announcing the days counting down. Marcus was surprised to learn that he'd kept track at all, but Ciaran relished in making Danny pretend to be happy about it. Thankfully, he stepped out for a while and Marcus gave Danny permission to drop the mask.
"I mmiss my mom..."
"I know, Danny."
"C-can I c-all her?" Danny looked up at him with watery eyes. The hand on his head hesitated.
"Not now. Ciaran will be back soon, but we'll have you call her soon."
"Y-yes, Sir..." He sniffed, turning his face away again.
As if on cue, the door swung open. Danny sat up quickly, wiping tears from his eyes.
"Happy 'Gotcha Day,' mouse!" Ciaran exclaimed. "I've got some fun things planned for today, but for now just open this. It's for you~"
He held out a small, wrapped box, eagerly awaiting for Danny to take it. Ciaran's excitement was... uncomfortable. Obviously it was going to be terrible, right?
Danny hesitantly opened the box to find... a picture of the sun? He looked at Ciaran with a perplexed face.
"You get to watch the sunrise!" He cheered. Danny's eyes grew wide at the thought of it. Sun. For the first time in a year, he could see the sun. He'd been begging for just a second outside and neither of the vampires had budged on their 'no's.
"R-really?" He gasped. Ciaran nodded happily. Danny looked over to Marcus to see a slight softness to his usually harsh expression. No tricks. Who cares why Ciaran's so happy, what else he's planning to make the day horrible.
"Thank you, Master!"

I'll say that I have been in some fandom with extremely impressive and dedicated artists but consistently some of my favorite artists are ones who technically make 'unimpressive' art to outright loving posting 'low effort' doodles. I love skilled work thats beautiful, but I also deeply admire a freedom from perfectionism and ambition. Sometimes those are just non-complicated but still clearly skilled works, and sometimes thats loving the wobbly simplicity of crude lines vs. rendered beauty. One of my favorite artists back when I was big into Hollow Knight was a korean artist who could absolutely make some extremely beautiful stuff, but many of the pieces I remember most and loved the most looked like this
Tumblr media
Even here I know I mentally worked harder to make this imitation than they did for the OG. I can't draw fast and loose, and I like work that is clearly faster and looser than I can do. I envy people who can do things imperfect and carefree. Sometimes thats still very obviously skilled work, sometimes its very stupid doodles that were blatantly done in 30 seconds in mspaint. I don't think its say, disrespectful to love the doodles more than the rendered stuff said artist makes- but my love for it comes from a place that a lot of people wouldn't guess. That is to say, its hard to tell who, why, or when something you make might click with people- and it doesn't take a masterwork for someone to see something in your art as inspiration.

fairest of the fair
#hi! im alive and back and etc.#six the musical#six the musical fanart#katherine howard#thinking of that post going 'i think eventually you become the person you needed most' and like maybe that's the thing with my art#this started out as a redraw and <improvement meme> i think i've finally reached the stage where i'm making the things that my younger self#aspired to create. like i can do this now! i've reached That level of technical skill! tiny me would be so proud. it's very gratifying#redraw from august this year actually. i've made a surprising amount of improvement HAHA maybe it was the adamandi stuff getting me#back into digital rendering. i think that obsession has quietly slipped away but yknow. one never truly leaves a fandom. just less intensit#also speaking of old fandoms! we're back with the six stuff haha. as of writing i'm in the midst of blog revamp- figuring out how to chill#multifandom status doesn't mean ditch all the old stuff ! but i do feel much freer and less stressed. i think hiatus has been good for me#notes on this piece particularly: redraw about cutting hair and thinking of the lyric above. also lowkey &j ref + pinterest poem excerpts#of female suffering. and maybe a dash of amanda heng let's walk inspo. this work is really just full of contradictions..#1. the mirror and cutting hair as an act of self liberation 2. the & is part of the lyric but also a nod to &j (in another iteration it was#pink but the white looked better) and like. &j is really all !!! girl power!!! etc. and i was like hmmmm. also matching pink shiny aes#3. the frame as a cage; the mirror as a self reflection idea (ie. saville's propped insp) but also as a sign of vanity. 4. sparkly costume#and pretty pose- read one too many poems about women feeling like they have to be pretty even in their suffering. something i wanted to#explore. and also in 5. the show itself... all you wanna do is. despite all the dancing and pink and sparkly the content of the song is#darker. and even though it's a story of her suffering it's still presented as a shiny fun pop song and ajshdhfhfh ok... 6. the lyrics fall#outside the frame. sort of a caught inbetween. sort of a trapped in the narrative and yet#within the frame it's all. vaguely handwavy breaking free vibes. like i said contradictions?#7. cutting off the long ponytail vs the pull my hair lyric at the end. yeah#8. the blocked off & looks a bit like scissors. positioned to cut right at the neck#anyways yeah irl remains hectic! but if i get around to more doodles they'll appear here :)

((Little bit ahead of where the blog was at, but I might as well post it now rather than any more time later, it was drawn during last year's blog anniversary.))

hey guys! so. i really really really hate to do this, but i've been thinking it over for the past few weeks and i've decided that i'm going to take a short hiatus from tyt. and by SHORT i mean that i will 100% no doubt be returning to this on the first sunday of january (jan 5), and will only be taking november and december off!!
reasons for this are quite a lot, both for the benefit of the dear reader verse and my personal life! just to briefly summarize:
college app's. i really need to prioritize these, and though i'll definitely be finished by early november, it will be taking up a lot of my time
arcane. this seems like a silly reason, but i'm an editor as well as a fic writer, and i just know that the arcane s2 release will consume my brain. i want to allow myself to fully enjoy the season release and not stress about also writing a fic so that i can edit to my heart's content :)
both of those are happening in november, but in december i will be having finals and will leave for a trip for two weeks!! as we all know (*cough* my summer vacation) i am not the best at balancing both writing and vacation, and again, i don't want to stress myself out too much on what is meant to be a vacation
other fics! i still have two unfinished fics, and i'd like to finally get those done instead of having them lingering over my head for another five months lmao
but the main reason is for the overall quality of dear reader and its upcoming one-shots!!! a whole lot of stuff is about to go down in the upcoming chapters, including several one-shots that detail other parts of the universe. according to my outline, in the next five chapters of tgol, i will also be posting 4-5 one-shots in the dear reader series (yes, two of those include the pollen lore!). i want to be able to do those stories justice, and the one-shots do tend to take a longer time to write than the tgol chapters just because i'm usually writing from new pov's and outlining a whole lot of extra plot (especially in those pollen one-shots - they're going into a completely different time period and i want to be able to confidently say i've put enough time and effort into them to be proud of them! i've been hyping the pollen lore up for quite a while now and i want to do them justice!!)
so yes. that's quite a lengthy explanation lmao but i'm justifying it to myself as well because of how much i adore tgol and don't ever want to accidentally abandon it <3 rest assured that i will be using the two months to hopefully get ahead of my outline and ensure a concrete posting schedule when i return! but for now, i will obvi still be active on here (as well as insta and tiktok, if you guys are interested in arcane content) to answer asks and ramble about tyt!!!

What We Could Of Had...
(excuse the quality, I made this in Samsung Notes.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ya see, when I first heard that Vc Hoshina liked Mont Blanc, I thought they meant the pen. And I was all like-
"Okay yeah, that makes sense. He's a sword fighter. In ancient Japan, they made sword fighters practice calligraphy because it taught them precision hand control. I could see him being a snob over expensive pens."
Only to find out that Mont Blanc also meant a dessert? Imma be honest with ya kitten, it still kinda pisses Daddy off a little bit.
Like, we could have had Stationary Snob Hoshina! He could have been sending in delicately crafted Mission Reports with rubber stamps and seasonal stickers! He could have been sending letters to Narumi with glittery ink that sheds sparkles all over his desk! Learning calligraphy could have been something he was forced to do as a child because he was dedicated to being a swordsman! Only to rekindle the once hated passion after someone gifts him a really nice fountain pen! We could have had him going on little trips/dates to the stationary stores for little treats!!!!
I HAD A WHOLE @SS CHAPTER PLANED ABOUT SOMEONE (I'm not saying who *coughka*) DOING THOSE LAST TWO SENTENCES SPECIFICALLY!!!!!!!!!
WHY COULDN'T I HAVE MY PETTY FROOT-LOOP HOSHINA?!?!?!??!!?!?
Also, @iceclew , Tagging you in this because I feel like it 🫶

Mom come pick me up the voices are loud again (the image of the poster children of Creepypasta in. Slender's Mansion again. All as one big fuck ass family. Fucked up one with issues abroad. But also one of mutual understanding and what if I want them to heal and grow as people. Forever changed by the events or even what they are fundamentally but still being able to live in this world as who they are now with a support group of beings similar yet so distant from themselves. They can never go back or completely change who they are without damaging themselves or there's nothing else to go back to anymore, so all they can do is move forward. And kill people, that's always a bonus)

just a little update !!
been kind of on and off this past week because things have been busy (and i've just been too tired bfjshf 🥲). i'm not sure how this week will look but i'm hoping to get some reading done and a bit of writing too!! (currently working on: gym toji for my start of the year event).
i've been feeling a bit meh with my writing lately, but i'm trying to write through it 🥹 in the meantime, i finally got my custom theme working again!! it gives a more complete search when you look through tags, so if you're interested in some fic recs, you can look through my tags page for reference hehe.
that is all!! i hope everyone has a lovely week ahead 🥹

god the announcement of hnk (houseki no kuni/land of the lustrous) has got me in shambles,,, i haven't read the chapters after the 10 000 years hiatus so i gotta catch up (actually I'll probably re-read the whole thing)
‼️rambling incoming‼️
imo, hnk is one of the best series for deep psychological analysis,,, it had such a deep impact on me when i first read it (like 3 years ago) and still remains in my top best/favorites series 🥹🥹 i could ramble abt it for so long,,, the process of one losing bit by bit the parts of themselves and replacing it with something else (both physically and metaphorically) in an endless need to help others, but also as an own selfish wish to become better than who they used to be. Then looking back, and realizing things were so much simpler back then, and mourning that past self. (The fact that all of this revolves around their self-hatred and the belief that they're worthless is just. It's so heartbreaking to me. They've become so desperate for affirmation and yet still keeps getting hurt, by others and by themself too.)
i have too many feelings about the manga 😭😭 im losing myself to the brainrot, help-
