Hi! Can you please answer 12 and 14 from the Fic Writer Asks? Thank you! 💖

Omg hey! 👋🏻 thank you so much for asking, and ahhh it feels like forever ago I reblogged that I had to scroll way back 💕 but am SO happy to do so 🥹🫶🏻

12. A trope you’re really into right now.

A trope I’m really into right now 🤔 hmm… that’s hard bc I feel like I have a few that sort of stay constant, yk? With that being said, I feel like reading wise it’s been ABO with a bunch of the fics I’ve been reading. But writing wise? Oof, actually it probably is unplanned pregnancy tbh 😅 like I currently have two series that those are sort of the main premise rn and a third which is, not like… currently part of the plot but will eventually probably fall into that too. So I’d probably have to say that one.

14. Where do you get your inspiration?

I feel like this is a tough one too, but more so because I feel like I don’t really know, exactly? Whether it’s hyper fixation, or I just needed an escape for my emotions, thoughts, and feelings in the guise of writing… I can’t exactly say? Though if I had to guess, it’d probably be the latter bc I’ve noticed that when I have an active rp going on with someone- I tend to write less (like currently 😅🙈) versus when I’m alone most of the time, it’s just nice to let my imagination run wild and explore different topics I either yearn for, think are funny, and or are some of sorts critical theory exploration, if that makes sense.

Anyway, I hope those made sense and thank you again for asking! I always love getting asks 💕🥹🫶🏻

What if Wenclair’s first kiss is a complete accident?

Enid leans in to kiss Wednesdays cheek, thanking her for being such an amazing friend or giving her a gift or something.

Wednesday, goes to turn her head to be like “Wtf are you doing????” But their lips touch and they’re both just standing there frozen, lips pressed together, both with wide eyes.

Enid snaps into reality and stands straight again. “I-uh…um… I gotta…” and just leaves.

Wednesday is still standing there frozen for a solid ten minutes.

re: lrb, I actually have a recent example of how copyright screws over small artists.

I (transsexual working retail) would like to sell some stickers to a small independent bookstore. I notice “Keep [CITY] Weird” merch sells very well. I design a sticker with the slogan. The store tells me that, unfortunately, the city of Austin has possibly trademarked the phrase “Keep [insert city here] Weird,” and therefore any merch sold with that text must be run by them first.

Now, the store could have an employee investigate if anyone owns the copyright to the general statement (vs. just "Keep Austin Weird," "Keep Portland Weird," etc.), contact them, send them the design and all planned uses of it, and get clearance... or they could just tell me, aforementioned transsexual, no. So what do you think happens?

Now the people who want to buy a “Keep [CITY] Weird” sticker cannot do so, the small local bookstore cannot stock and sell the stickers, and the small queer local artist does not get any money for the design they made. The design about, I cannot stress this enough, supporting weird local culture.

It’s not hard to understand how this translates to a creative bottle-stopper: how much art and literature and music has not been made, because its creator did not have the time or energy to make something unmonetizable?

It's not just about selling things; it's about what you can put on your Patreon and where you can link your Ko-Fi. It's about how you can afford to invest your time when you're already working a full-time job and doing art on the side. It's about copyright adding constraints to art under a system that is not good to them to begin with—do not take this post as an extollment of small businesses otherwise! Ultimately, it's about stopping people from making art, and no better. All copyright can do is stop people from making new art based on yours. It doesn't guarantee you get paid, just that others can't.

twists his arm behind his back, " your form keeps slipping. you can't keep leaving yourself open like that, childe. "

ㅤㅤ❛❛ HEY - fuck - ❜❜ he has to resist the urge to growl in annoyance as he feels his arm twist behind him . he knows he can't leave himself open like that , they've been training long enough for him to remember .. it's still a hard habit to break . not relying strictly on his strength .

ㅤㅤhe deflates , sighing . turning to look back at her with a pout . ❛❛ sorry , i know . i kept my guard down . should've been paying better attention . can i try again ? ❜❜

❛❛ nope , i'm visiting from , fontaine technically . all though that isn't my home . ❜❜ not a lie at least , he had been in fontaine prior to deciding where he wanted to vacation at . ❛❛ originally snezhnaya , though i haven't been back there for a time now . ❜❜

he grins , he can sense the apprehension , though it is something he's used to . he's hopeful he won't be recognized without his normal attire && delusion . hoping he can stay mostly under the radar . he doesn't want this to turn into something hectic , if he had to fight ..

well , who knows what would happen .

❛❛ i am ... sorry , if i startled you . i was just .. looking for a place to rest , before heading towards the city to book into my room for the week . ❜❜

The Captain's wisteria eye was still glued to the paths below him and occasionally looked up to gaze across the mountain to the other side; even more infrequently glanced towards the Winery and Springvale. All the while, he was sitting on the edge of the cliff, enjoying one of his fruity skewers. Might as well make the most of his time, after all!

He was in the middle of taking a slow and deep breath to truly enjoy the breeze, before he just stopped abruptly. Kaeya wasn't really able to hear the steps of someone approaching with all the grass and leaves rustling, but what he did notice was the heavy presence. A familiar one; one that stirred his chest uncomfortably and made him tense up considerably and, to him, permeated the air with a smell of ozone. The abyss.

Kaeya whipped his head around towards the being that was approaching, and— well, he was anticipating an abyss mage, perhaps some rifthounds; or worse yet, heralds or lectors. Somehow, what stood nearby was a person. Confusion was written across his face as his eye quickly took in the other's appearance, yet this visage didn't last long at all. In fact, to most, it would appear as though confusion was never even something Kaeya expressed! Instead, it just looked...blank.

"Nor did I," he responded slowly, his tone leaving out any hostility, however there was certainly a hint of apprehension. Standing up from the cliff's edge, he took a few steps away from it while still maintaining his distance from the stranger. "... You're not from here, are you?" A simple observation, and one that the Captain clung to. He believes he heard a small accent, but has yet to pinpoint where due him being thrown off his axis so suddenly.

I know their randombred at the moment and you do breeds and catteries. But do you think you'll do a submission on the Finnish mutation? (apparently its linked to karparti. According to messybeast)

This, and Tortie and white are my two favourite cat colours. Too bad this is only really in Finland (I'm UK).

[link to messybeast article]

At the moment I don’t have any queue’d, your best bet is to follow the karpati tag because any visually similar cats are likely to end up there.

I’ve got plenty of tortie and white’s queue’d though!

ㅤㅤhe could probably do with resting a bit longer , taking a break - maybe even a vacation ... but at the same time the idea of doing that just made him anxious . he wanted to be moving around as much as he could .

//Howdy, everyone.

Here I am, after like- a good while. I’d make a witty joke like I usually try to, but I’m just gonna get straight to the point here: This blog is done posting in-character. I’d be like “oh yeah, it’s on an indefinite hiatus! There’s a chance I may come back!” But yeaaahhh no this thing is done. I know that sounds kinda sarcastic and gloomy, but I’m not really quite sure how else to phrase it? Kinda just got to rip the bandaid off.

I don’t want to make this post too long, so there’ll be an explanation for everything under the cut. Just know that nobody did anything; just to sum it up: the blog started as a passion project that was supposed to just be for fun and morphed into something that stressed me out and just wasn’t as fun as it used to be.

Don’t get me wrong; being active here was amazing. The community was great, everybody was so supportive and nice; and I genuinely thank everybody so so SO much for just being here. It’s just time for me to take a step back from this blog so I can look back at it as a positive experience instead of a stressful one.

But anyways, Thank you all so much for being here while this blog was active. I couldn’t thank you all enough.

Alright, under the cut now. Time for long explanations, yayyyy!

So… I guess I should start at the beginning of this blog?? I made it back in May, around the end of the school year (there was probably a month left of school and that was it.) I had been thinking of creating something like this for a while, but I had finally gotten around to it then. Anyways, things went well for a while, then that first hiatus was taken…that happened a few days before school was meant to end, and of course I wanted a smooth transition into the summer, but there was also something else; I wasn’t prepared for the amount of work it took to manage the blog. Of course, I could do it all, I just underestimated everything. So, that hiatus was also me buying time to catch up on asks…which basically didn’t make it a break whatsoever. That was kind of the first big example of me treating this whole thing more like something I HAD to do instead of something I was doing for fun.

Then, we got back from the hiatus. I had lots of posts queue’d, so I let myself relax a little and draw up asks at a bit of a more leisurely pace. But it turns out I was posting faster than I could finish an ask, which led me back into finishing an ask an hour or two before it was supposed to post and just being tired the rest of the day until I started the cycle over again. Eventually, in late June, I started feeling the effects of everything. Stress was really building, I had a bunch of other projects I couldn’t work on because I was focused on the blog, other personal life stuff, and of course I was starting to actually injure my arm/wrist.

Because of all of that, I decided to finally slow down the posting schedule. For a couple days after that I did something I hadn’t for a while: just rest. Of course before this there were more lazy posts that were just sketches or one frame that let me rest more than usual, but I was still always working on something. So just taking a couple days to just chill out was really great. And then as soon as I started getting to work again: the whole ��wrist injury” thing happened.

Of course, because of that, I had to go on the second hiatus to let it heal. And during that time, I looked back at my work ethic. That led me to this realization, that I wasn’t really treating this whole thing in a very healthy manner. It was the “fun thing morphed into stress thing”, all that stuff. But also during my forced break, I actually ended up getting a new fixation and I started focusing less on uty. I realized this a couple days back, and that was kind of the final straw that had me make the decision to stop posting in-character here: I wouldn’t be able to portray the character decently anymore. Of course I still love starlo and the whole uty cast dearly, it’s just that I may not be able to act in-character accurately anymore. I know I was kind of ooc before, but I still had a good grasp on the characters (I think). I could go and not have a set schedule for posting, give myself breaks whenever needed, and overall have fun with this blog again, but I wouldn’t be portraying the characters as accurately as before. I wouldn’t be doing them all justice. (pun intended)

That’s about all I’ve got— thanks for reading this whole big thing lol. Sorry if it comes off as a bit of a rant, that’s not really what it’s supposed to be; supposed to just explain why I’m leaving so it doesn’t just look like I dropped off the fact of the earth. Also, reiterating what I said above, thank you all so much for all of the support and everything; this was really fun while it lasted.
