i wanted to take a moment to express my profound gratitude for @jellyfishsun incredible writing. your stories have taken me on emotional journeys that i never thought possible.

reading your work has been an experience like no other, as it has been years since i felt such genuine happiness while reading. your ability to evoke such deep emotions and bring the characters from osmosis jones is truly remarkable and only makes me so grateful to feel this way again.

your writing has only further deepened my appreciation for the osmosis jones community i've only found to be heavily interested in. it is extremely rare to find stories that resonate so deeply and leave such a lasting impact, and i guess what i'm trying to say is, i'm glad we have you in this silly- little small community of fans.

your work means more to me than words can fully convey. i haven't felt this content in years. so, thank you, thank you for making me feel great again. :)

(p.s my favorite thing you've ever written is "stuck with you". it literally made me cry)

edit:

another thing is the playlist you make for your fanfics are so good. normally i’m extremely picky with what i listen to including the genre, yet everytime i play your playlist it’s just… amazing. spectacular even. the playlist are genuinely so nice on their own that i can just listen to it without reading. that’s how good they are. 😭

AND YOUR ART?? HOLY SHIT ITS SO GOOD. whenever i have time im drawing something, a scene, an oc.

file (2)9-61-0210: sibling traits

thank you @thecomfywriter and @mysticstarlightduck for this tag! this one is a sibling questionnaire, so i'll use shepherd and juno from n3xt y3ar!

1. who looks more like their dad?

shepherd, the resemblance is nearly uncanny.

2. who looks more like their mom?

juno, although neither picked up much from her.

3. who eats the most?

neither eat as much as they should, but if you count drinks, then it’s definitely shepherd.

4. who has been in the weirdest situations?

juno, if only because he’s older.

5. who sleeps the most?

juno, but it’s a close tie.

6. most stable romantic life?

shepherd has never had a romantic relationship, so this one goes to juno. never had a bad breakup, that guy.

7. worst habit of each?

juno is a raging pessimist and always gives up before he starts, and shepherd bottles up their emotions and doesn’t talk about their problems, unconsciously judging others who are more open.

8. who’s the most dramatic?

shepherd. hands down.

9. who had the weird phase?

they both live in a constant purgatory of “weird phases,” but shepherd wouldn’t cringe as hard looking back.

10. best cook in the family?

neither can cook, sadly. they’ve lived off microwave meals for years.

11. best memory together?

shepherd’s 13th birthday!

12. worst memory together?

their dad leaving.

13. dream trip together?

anywhere with no goddamn robot censorship.

14. would you rather: not be able to shower or change clothes?

they’d both pick never changing clothes (nearly canon).

15. who’s older?

juno is 21, and shepherd is 16.

16. describe others in 3 words

(i assumed this meant each describes the other, so that’s what i went with)

shepherd: “oh, okay, let me think… juno’s kind, resourceful, and creative.” juno: “don’t bother talking me up.”

juno: “dramatic, a bit cagey, and naive. can’t say i’m wrong, can you?” shepherd: “okay jeez–”

17. role model?

there are literally no role models in this world (at least no human role models), so while juno wouldn’t have anyone, shepherd might pick their dad, or at least the version of their dad they’ve invented.

18. who usually has worst ideas?

shepherd, if only because they have ideas.

19. giant insect on wall— certified bug killer?

the bugs kill them.

open tag, but i'll consult the list!

NO MORE ANGST AND DRAMA

Headcanons where sve/sdv where are the bachelors and the bachelorettes (of your choice) just find their farmer who just lies on the grass and is like "I'm just lying here, dear, it's just that the spirits decided so today" and it's so stupid and cute, because we all need it right now ehehe

Let's write some fluff ❤️ thank you for your ask ☺️

Elliott:

The writer invited the Farmer to a picnic in the woods in early autumn, when it is still not so cold outside, but the leaves of the trees are already beginning to acquire red and gold hues. The weather today is sunny, which cannot but rejoice, because such days will soon end and give way to cold and rainy weather.

The Farmer and Elliott lay out the picnic blanket together, laid out the food and utensils. And just as Elliott began to open the bottle of the red wine, he heard a rustle behind him. This is his partner, who for some reason decided to lie down on the grass that had not yet turned yellow.

To Elliott's questioning look, the Farmer replied with a laugh that they were just feeling "funny". It didn't explain much, but Elliott let them do what they wanted. He found such behavior charming, one of the many fine qualities of his most beloved person.

The writer nevertheless took off his jacket, afraid to get it dirty in the earth and grass (which is then difficult to wash off), and lay down next to the Farmer.

Although the grass tickles the skin and pricks the face, Elliott found this situation very cute and funny, he especially remembered his partner's sincere and beautiful laughter when they giggled at Elliott's facial expression at the tingling of the grass.

He's definitely going to write this cute moment into his autobiography somehow.

Leah:

Leah was working on her new sculpture in the small courtyard of her house, when her partner came to visit. The artist smiled at her guest, but asked me to wait a couple of minutes so that she could finish her work on the sculpture. The Farmer nodded their heads, but instead of sitting on the stump nearby, they lay down on the green grass.

"A handy stump isn't good enough for you?" joked Leah.

"I feel how the spirits favor me to approach nature as close as possible."

"Oh really?" Leah looked down to where their beloved Farmer lay with a smile. When she finished with the sculpture, she walked up to the Farmer, looking down.

"Hey, anyone on the line?"

"Yeap," the Farmer laughs and looks tenderly at Leah. She looked at them with the same tenderness, and decided to sit next to them.

"You are so silly" in her words there was not a drop of causticity, only love.

"What can I say, the spirits favor today."

Lance:

It happened one summer evening when Lance was at the farm today, preparing dinner for himself and the Farmer while his hard-working spouse took care of the crops.

He noticed that the time was approaching 9 pm, and the Farmer still did not appear at home. He need to check what they are doing.

The gallant adventurer didn't have to go far, as he saw his beloved next to the porch of their house. The Farmer lay on the grass with their eyes closed.

Lance approached them, worried that they had passed out from overwork.

"My love?"

The Farmer immediately opened their eyes, letting Lance know that they were all right.

"The stars are beautiful," the Farmer beamed at Lance. “But it seems to me that I found the view even more beautiful,” and look directly into the eyes of the adventurer in the blue cloak.

Lance laughed softly. Sweet talker.

"Shall we go inside? Dinner is ready."

"With pleasure. Just... Lie with me dear, for a couple of minutes."

Lance complied with the request of his loved one. He lay down on the cool grass next to the Farmer, listening to the crickets chirping and looking at the stars in the sky.

"A beautiful view, indeed."

They both held hands, enjoying such peaceful moments together.

I LOVE RKS. The first song I ever heard by them was First Class, and it made me cry. Hooked.

How would you fare if you ended up in n3xt y34r's world? Specifically, if you woke up one day in Shepherd's shoes?

(I have more asks but I also want you to sleep >:))

Bonus question: Is the story's main purpose to be warning about the dangers of letting AI take over creativity, or was there another theme you also had in mind?

firstly, i will never sleep, so ask away >:)

but as for the question... holy that's interesting. because you see, when i write a dystopia, i write it infused with ideals very close to my heart (take TITANSPINE and discrimination against the working class, for example). but n3xt y3ar, oh boy, that one is a very serious issue to me. for those who don't know, n3xt y3ar is a dystopia about generative ai and the terrible effects is has on all creative communities (that's part of the reason the title is what it is - this stuff is happening now, and it will happen tomorrow, next month, next year, perhaps?).

so! if i lived in the world of n3xt y3ar, independent of the story (by that i mean shepherd) i would be so fucking angry. generative ai sickens me as is, but to live in a world like that, where murals are torn off walls and buskers are beat to death by robots? that's just awful. mentally i would do terribly, to say so much with so few words. i put a lot of myself into shepherd, from their emotional inarticulation to affinity for bass guitar, so honestly i would probably behave the same way they do. hopeless in action, but wishing for more.

to answer the bonus question: i'm not gonna go too deep since i already wanna make a post about the purpose of all my writing, and how i decide on big themes, but you're pretty much correct. the thing is, it isn't really a cautionary tale like you've described. i'm not trying to say "oooh guys don't use ai it's scary and hurts creatives" because we all know that. it's too late to try and dissuade people with shitty metaphors. no, n3xt y3ar is about hope for the real creatives. writers, artists, musicians, photographers, actors, everyone! let n3xt y3ar show you that even in the depths of inarticulate robotic drivel trying to overtake our significance in this world, human art will prevail, because we - the artists - are the truest, most empathetic, most resilient force in this world.

@littlemoon285 hey, hey Moon >:)

Genuinely wild that Brennan has arranged his NPCs such that Buddy, Bucky, and Bud Cubby could all plausibly be at the Applebees house simultaneously. Absolute DM nightmare fuel, and it seems to be entirely self-inflicted.

My players in my current multi-year campaign picked 2 names that start with the same letter and I STILL mix them up constantly.
