Not sure if you ever answered this (if yes, I'm very sorry) but would the effects of the nysm au significantly impact the skip button ending? 👀👀👀

I think it would, a little. Not the end result, but definitely on an emotional level, especially from Stanley’s perspective. Since The Narrator’s appearance is tied directly to his emotional & mental state, Stanley has a front row seat to Narry’s gradual deterioration. And it isn’t pretty. 😬 Plus it double-sucks to have him loose his sense of self right when being visible finally made him start to feel Real.

I’ve always wanted to a NYSM ‘timelapse’ sequence, showing how he changes with every button press. I have a very specific…interpretation of this ending. Hopefully I’ll get to it sometime. :3

💌👁👁

Sam! I'm endlessly touched by your kindness to me and to others. You're someone I always feel comfortable with, and I never feel judged in your presence. I have a lot of fun talking to you, and your thoughts on narratives and characters keep me fed for days. I'm so glad we met <3

[focsle]

In the time thst I didn't follow you but knew your general presence I thought your knowledge of whaling and also art of Jonah Magnus was very swaggy. That opinion still remains.

There are times when I’m compelled to delete all my tma stuff just cos I don’t go there anymore at all, but I keep it around cos other people seem to enjoy it. But thank u for stickin around now that I’ve returned back to my True Obsession!

Dae. Daw. What if Elias. What if Elias in that suit from that one Reigen Arataka official art. You know what I mean.

Oh, god... He really should look professor-adjacent. I was thinking of a subtle lattice or plaid pattern on his waistcoat or coat. Yes. Yes.

Thank you for the rose! Have a time loop!

"You tried to answer them, to say that you didn’t know what they were talking about, or to say that you did. You didn’t know how you wanted to reply to this. They felt so familiar, and yet so distant. 

One of the teacups shattered. 

Three knocks on the door disturbed your mid evening cup of tea. This was the third time today that this has happened. You regret having been an extrovert in your youth."

Business man Elias is the most accurate Elias ‼️‼️ (jk go w whatever design speaks to you but he's a business man at heart)

He IS a businessman but I also want to make him y'know look a little bit unique I guess haha. Though it's kind of hard to achieve an uncanny feeling through a single design

6, 17, and 39 for the fic ask meme!

6. What's the last line you wrote?

the anticlimactic answer is that it was a random line of the most recent chapter of a matter of perspective which is already posted, and i don't remember which. so i'll just give you the most recent couple lines i've written that aren't already posted:

Nureyev had seemed in good spirits as well; he’d even allowed himself to get slightly tipsy, a sight that was completely new to Juno. The only tangible effect it’d had on the thief was to add a slight rosiness to his cheeks and some clumsy gesticulations alongside his words, but it had been cute to see him like that. The perfect master thief, ever so slightly unraveled, genuinely enjoying himself for once.

(wow... out of context you'd have no idea that this is from one of the saddest fic concepts i've ever come up with!)

17. Do you have a writing routine?

nah, i just write whenever i have the time and energy for it. recently i have been doing a lot of sprints, though (aka using a discord bot to time me to write for a short period of time without stopping and record how many words i write in that time). because my brain's been so dead that it's the only way to force myself to do it.

39. What's your most self-indulgent WIP?

of my posted wips, probably my slipetya fic enduring moral core. i have a lot of habits and neuroses that make it difficult for me to write stuff that is purely self indulgent, but with that fic i've tried to let go of a lot of things that i usually get caught up in and just write what i enjoy writing. aka, not getting hung up on why/how slip is alive and allowing myself to time jump between chapters and change povs to get to whatever i find most interesting to explore.

of my unposted.... idk. probably the one with the snippet i posted above. but i can't even state the concept behind that one without spoiling the whole thing, and i've only written like two paragraphs of it so far.

Hi! Random question but how is Warren with touch? From humans or in General? Does he recieve a lot of it? 👀

He’s certainly not used to it, but he does enjoy it! Enamoured with it even. Every hug or hand-hold makes him “:O !” Inside

As much as he’d like to ask for more of it, he’s still deciding how to go about that. 🤔

[runefells]

Also, thank you so much to everyone else who participated! I'll be contacting the winners in the coming days to figure out where the journals are going.

Shaima and Mohammad's campaign is not yet finished, and they are still desperately in need of donations - for anyone interested, there is now a raffle for a handmade magikarp plush being held for the family! You can find and enter it here.

21, 26, and 15 for the WIP asks

21. What’s a common writing tip that you mostly ignore?

I’m completely blanking on every writing tip I’ve ever potentially heard in my life. Since this is a comic, I will say a common (and valuable) practice I straight up just…don’t do…is I don’t keep a sketchbook and I never do studies. Everything I draw, I draw with the intention of completing it (as far as whatever ‘complete’ means to me). I use reference for GTW, but I also just like…draw everything cold. I’m stubborn and feel the crushing weight of time upon me and I don’t want to spend any of it on drawing the ship’s figurehead over and over studying it when I could be finishing a page. My Toxic Trait or w/e.

26. What is the worst writing advice in your opinion?

As I said above, I’m blanking on advice. I don’t trust anything that speaks in absolutes though. Every story deserves a custom approach for whatever that story is trying to do, and advice that starts with things like ‘never do this’ or ‘avoid this’ isn’t advice worth being heard, if u ask me.

15. Post a line from a WIP that you’re working on. Here's a bit of dialogue from pg 108 of the captain talking about a whale in the distance that they're rowing to:

"What is he to you, boys? All the drink and women you can ask for? A plot of land to settle down and never touch the sea again? Whatever you see in him, it’s waiting for you, calling to you, it’s all yours if you just straighten your backs, long now, and--"
