Listened to the full length version of 'Under The Tree' by SIM, and it made me think of Wisteria sob

This is already enough

We'll figure out the rest

Let me shoulder your sins together

With you!

People will not call it love

And we won't be blessed

Let me shoulder your sins together

For you!

If I lose it all

I'll be waiting, waiting for you

Let me hold you under the tree

Under the tree-ee-ee, ee-ee-ee

Ee-ee-ee-ee

I'll protect...

Burn!

When Lila falls under the effects of the elixir, she loses herself to one of her strongest and yet, suspectable traits. Self-sacrifice. She will do anything and everything to keep Unknown safe. He saw her when nobody else did. Even if he was misguided and wrong when he took her, she had nothing and felt like she was just nothing. His goals became her goals. Wisteria knew her path, and that path was his to make for them. If all they could have was paradise...

Well, they'll have paradise but it will only be for them and them alone. She'll stand there for him underneath the wisteria tree as thick vines creep out and catch anyone who thinks I'll of them. Think what you will. She'll stand a world away from everybody else to be with him. Survive the pain no matter the cost and be together.

Yay, an ask game!! >:3 Learning about everyone's writing process is always so interesting to me 👀

Ok, I'm really curious about your answers to 3, 20 and 56 ✧

3. Describe the creative process of writing a chapter/fic

Crying. There is a lot of crying involved as I sit down and try to figure out the best way to cultivate a chapter. I need to have some kind of music playing when I'm working. I don't just make those character playlists because they're fun to make, I make them because they help me create a story. I will listen to a song on repeat until it gets me the juice I need for the scene I'm writing.

Music is what motivates me to get into the rhythm of writing, and it helps me set the environmental tone.

Depending on what I'm listening to, it can really shape the story experience and sometimes it can help me deviate from the initial path I created. I do create outlines before I write a story and a chapter by chapter assessment, but sometimes things can change on the spot if I get a good idea thanks to a song.

Also, there are days when I will use voice to text features to help me write. I really like to get into the theatrics of a story so sometimes I'll just be narrating it out loud as it types itself out.

20. Have you noticed any patterns in your fics? Words/expressions that appear a lot, themes, common settings, etc?

That's an interesting question but I do know more than anything that grammarly likes to scream at me about using too many complex sentences and using the word "that" way too much.

I have a tendency to use very specific tropes. I will always follow a path of hurt comfort no matter what I'm writing. There will be hurt, there will be comfort, we will learn something about ourselves along the way, and we will cry until the happy ending. How many times have I used a kidnapping plot? How many times have I made a character beat around the bush with their emotions?

How many times have I made Zen the best friend to the reader insert character? Will I ever cut Jihyun Kim some slack? I know I have a lot of little nitpicky things but I haven't really thought about what that appears to be for people that read a lot of my stories. I would be curious to know what people notice that is similar.

56. What’s something about your writing that you pride yourself on?

I think if there's anything I pride myself on it's the ability to capture what I want to express out loud but can't ever seem to do in person. If that makes any sense. I'm able to cultivate a story very easily that is filled with winding and complex emotions. It's easier for me to express myself that way than it is for me to do it outside of the story. It's strange.

But, I have grown a lot by learning how I can express myself through my writing.
