exciting to see you active again! have been enjoying the jokamui fics you've been posting again. best wishes for the writing~ also, a heads up: the writing blog links to earlgreybutler still, you may want to update the link
Hello!! Seeing your ask in my inbox was like seeing a friend I miss and haven't seen in a while, it made me so happy ❤️
Thank you for your kind wishes, I'll do my best!
And a little confession: I know I really should update the link, but it feels like (to me) a melancholy ghost that I don't mind haunting my bio. But. It's probably time to perform that exorcism.

hello!
i'm invested in your chicago&tokyo fic and would love to hear literally anything you have to say about it! you could give a whole director's cut, a scene you wanted to expand on, or a snippet of ur fav scene rn and i will look at you with heart eyes <33 ur fics bring incredible joy and the way you write just feels absolutely tender and whole and so visual it definitely is something i strive for in my writing as well
i hope you have a good day and thank you for sharing your work! you've worked hard~
hiya~
i have an outline of the next chapter up in my discord server eyeball emoji
Meta thoughts: - I started this fic when I was living in Chicago, in a way it's a little memoir/love(?) letter to my city. maybe ill finish it in tokyo :3 - i wish more fandom portrayals of kyojuro reached beyond his Exuberant! personality to think about his exuberance-as-defense-mechanism/traditional-slash-conservative upbringing/general eccentricity—not just as a fun character quirk, but in thinking about "how did he come to be like this" and "what are the consequences of being such a weirdo in daily life" and "why do ppl like him so much" - kny isn't necessarily a fave anime, i write fic for worlds that are interesting, but I also have to see the opportunity for a story beyond what's already there. an imperfect story often creates room for reader characters to make a difference. - the reader character is probs my most perfect character (not as in mary-sue perfect, or writerly perfection, but as in "this is probs one of the most decent, mature, and moral ppl you will ever meet in fiction or life"). This "perfection" is plot important for [MASSIVE SPOILER] reasons. A theme I'm interested in, in this fic but also in general, is strength and courage and power taking different forms than fantasy but esp anime teaches us to expect. It's not fighting. It's not rushing headfirst into battle. It's not being able to kill and destroy. Strength is planning + leading to victory. Courage is being afraid and angry and broken but making the right choice regardless. Power is building people up and healing and growing despite everything.
Fun thought: - Anyone notice Sanemi developing a crush on reader huehuehue, I'm surprised by so many ppl secondary-shipping reader with Hakuji because I see them more as a boss/employee or older/younger sib relationship
Now! What you came for! My plan for the next few chapters below the cut.
MASSIVE SPOILERS:
Hakuji becomes a hashira (on technicalities. sort of.)
Hashira training arc: Hakuji gets to yell at all the hashira (probs offscreen.) he was the only one who's been an actual teacher. also the hashira suck at teaching.
Swordsmith village arc: Tanjiro + co kill Hatengu + Kaigaku. Muichiro lives! Reader gets kidnapped by Kokushibo.
Infinite castle arc: Reader kills Kokushibo by letting Yoriichi posess her. Screws up the infinite castle with her blood. Then, Muzan captures and eats her.
This is not how the story ends, I don't write sad fics, but I do like a cliffhangers so I'll let y'all guess how reader + co finagle their way out of this ufufufufuf

Reading a Rengoku x reader fanfic and I am fist fighting my hyperfixation away but God is on their side. I can't- I don't want to add another character to my lists of characters I love so much I got to draw them- Douma's hair was bad enough but add Rengoku and his bloody good looks?! My hands will shrivel up oh my god

helpful reminder, you don't have to have a reason to dislike something! or to like it!
i think popular media culture is poisoned in the following ways:
if you like something, people will make fun of you because you have admitted to experiencing a sincere emotion. this makes people defensive about what they like.
if you don’t like something, people will take your opinion personally and attack you. this makes people feel like they have to have a very good reason to dislike something.
people reach for reasons to like vs dislike things that are serious and often politically relevant so they can defend themselves from other opinion-havers.
these positions mutually reinforce each other until it is assumed that any declaration of liking or disliking something is both personally and politically relevant by default.
i am forced to look at this every time one of my fandom posts blows up.

I’m a new follower and I was just wondering if you’re still working on your Chicago and Tokyo fic. Just wanna say it’s soo good, I absolutely love your writing style. Feel free to ignore this, I’m just curious :)
Hello there OwO
I do plan to finish the fic! Eventually. It's all outlined (in my head if not on my computer). However, updates are unlikely to post soon because of recent life changes.
Thank you for following + reaching out!

I think ffxiv's dragons align most closely with what i believe dragons should be in fiction
Honestly the whole dragon thing in ffxiv becomes so much more ridiculous when you learn that dragons technically aren’t native to Etheirys, they’re straight up aliens from the literal dragon planet.
yknow when its revealed midgardsormr brought 7 eggs to the star/hydaelyn i thought "oh! they're from another dimension! the dragon dimension <3" since its alrdy established that the void is a different plane etc. and the dragonstar is probably just some magical/important constellation thing for dragons :3
but. no. he flew through space from The Dragonstar. he's an alien. dragon blood turns you into a dragonmutant. (which miiiight be corporeal aether corruption BUT ALSO MAYBE JUST A DRAGON THING?????)
and then their growth/adaptivity is so funny. ehll tou is in ishgard for idk a month half a year however long the ishgard restoration is and grows like 10 times the size and develops DRAGONTHUMBS bc she was hanging around with doh/dol types. she did more growing than a regular dragonet does in a century all because she was friends with nondragons and crafting stuff? leucrotta the azys lla s rank is a "coeurl dragon"? coeurl dragons ditched their wings and just copied coeurls to hunt better in meracydia????
god i love ffxiv dwagons

Hullo~ Wanted to reach out as you're the first writer I've seen active in both Yakuza and FFXIV. I only write reader inserts in both fandoms, but it's super cool to see someone who also likes Nishiki and FFXIV. Your ffxiv Nishiki build looks great~
aaaAAAA thank you so much!!💕💕💕 You know if you happen to be on Crystal I'd be absolutely happy to play with ya whenever! I just can't do current/synced ex and savages anymore bc my net likes to randomly drop out.
It's a lot of fun playing cross universe and to try and recreate characters in xiv. I have several builds, including several copies of y0, k1, and ishin Nishikis. I have to get monk and samurai back up to speed though, as I recently swapped/fantasiad Nishiki over from a side alt to my main. It's my equivilant to Sims tbh lmao.
I do know a few other Yakuza players in xiv but I don't think theyer active on Tumblr. It's especially fun duo monking with my irl best bud while they'er on Kiryu and we totally end up in sync with our rotation. Brotherhood included.
Them: BRO
Me: bro... 😭
I saw your writing since seeing this ask too and I love it! You write Nishiki so well and I'm always craving for more Nishiki content. The recent Haurche one got me at the throat though dang 💦💕💕💕 I look forward to seeing more of your stuff and reading through your past stuff!

This is a post, incidentally to the twenty-odd people who follow this blog.
But this is, specifically, a post for @papersong.
Hello. Thank you for being patient, and thank you for loving Jokamu so much that you reached out to me.
I make no promises but one: I will try to post more. I cannot promise frequency, consistency, quality, or even new material, for that matter, but I will post when I am able to.
@papersong, I apologise in advance, and thank you for bearing with me a little longer; these stories are for you.
And as always, everyone, thanks for coming by. Enjoy your stay.

Wanted to share this story I wrote in responses to your tags on the “You kidnapped my fucking girlfriend” post. Story set after Orlok’s tragic end but it doesn’t end tragically. Orlok does’t kill Dante, but Lili does… owo Submitted post from papersong Here is the incorrect quote I think they’re talking about
Dante: Something made you come back to us today, Orlok. Call it fate, destiny-
Orlok: I call it “You kidnapped my fucking girlfriend”.
here are my tags #pretend orloks tragic route but it doesn't end tragically#and orlok kills Dante#preferably
I read this awhile ago and absolutely loved it!! This is an amazing fic, and it makes me so happy to see Dante get what is fuckin coming to him!!!

something i love about ffxiv is how epic the stories are. give me love stories (and hate stories) that span timelines + planets + universes.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Shadowbringers is about two old men trying to out dramatic each other and failing while wearing the most frilly of robes. Grandstanding, trying to win over the heroes' heart and trying to out old man each other while everyone else is trying to fix the Post Apocalyptic Hellscape.

Upon reflecting on Kyojuro’s suppressed emotions, I wonder if part of it is because he was afraid that expressing himself would destroy him like it did his father. Children learn from their parents, and what he saw was grief overcoming his father to the point where he abandoned him and Senjuro emotionally for years. Perhaps he did not want the same to happen to himself, so he just continued to move forward without even looking at his internalised hurt.
I do think it's possible one reason he suppressed his emotions was out of fear of destroying himself like Shinjurou did or getting stuck the way he had. Especially since Shinjurou never came out of it while Kyojuro was alive and it's very likely that Kyojuro never actually grieved Ruka. He didn't know how to properly grieve, and seeing what it did to Shinjurou it would make sense for Kyojuro's brain to go "nope, we aren't doing that! SUPPRESS!" Because how does he get out? As far as Kyojuro can tell, you don't get out, you just go into the pit and you're stuck. I don't think he was worried about what would happen if he expressed his feelings because he never even let himself consider that as an option. The desire to express his feelings means he's thinking about himself and for Kyojuro that's not allowed, we think about everyone else and not ourself, ever. Not to mention you usually need a safe space to express yourself, at least a single person you feel safe confiding in and Kyojuro didn't have that either, he didn't trust anyone enough to do that because he was so intent on not burdening anybody. If he admitted to himself he was hurt he would start to think about it, and it's hard to move away from, hence him having to mentally stop himself, and I think once he realized that he decided he was going to move forward and just bury all that and keep it buried.
