a/n: I saw this fan art by ルチル @oberon0614 and was just an absolute goner. Just my lil' (non-explicit) ode to that iconic nose <3

“I’m down bad.”

“Excuse me?” Higuruma startles, raising a brow. 

“Stupid, we’re being so so s-stupid,” you mutter through chattering teeth, stomping your feet. “I’m quitting in summer.”

“You say that every summer,” Higuruma replies, retrieving his pack of cigarettes from the deep trenches of his coat.

“We only met two summers ago,” you retort, fumbling through your jacket, obstructed by the thick material of your mittens. 

“Presents enough of a track record,” he shrugs, tapping a cigarette out and sliding it between his lips. 

“Well, maybe sixth’s time the charm.” Higuruma huffs through his nostrils, vapours of his amusement made visible in the frigid air, as he idly observes you continue to rummage through your jacket. 

“Atta girl,” You narrow your eyes at the drawled patronising inflection. “You won’t give up giving up so easily huh?” 

“Yeah, the real reason I can’t quit are these deeply insightful 60 second conversations of ours,” you quip, starting to unbutton your jacket to check the inner lining. Higuruma intervenes, holding out his pack but you shake your head. 

“Much to be missed,” he agrees. You roll your eyes at the exaggerated mournful sigh that follows his statement. You recover your pack at last and hurriedly shove the slim white stick into your mouth, patting your pockets for your lighter. 

Higuruma flicks his on and this time you acquiesce, leaning towards the wavering flame in his steady hands. You linger with your lips hovering close above them for a minute longer than usual as the fire flutters against the winter wind. 

You savour your first drag, feeling the nicotine seep into your system, shoulders sagging back. 

It’s silent except for the sharp whistling of the chilly breeze and distant sounds of traffic far below, which is perhaps why you feel the weight of Higuruma’s steady gaze settle over you, like the snowflakes drifting over your shoulders.

You crack your eyes open just in time to see Higuruma avert his gaze, as if he’d abruptly realised he wasn’t entitled to witnessing you reveling in such relief, as if this moment of your uninhibited pleasure was too private a thing to infringe upon, let alone participate in. 

As if you hadn’t seen similar expressions on him, and a whole range of other ones, over the past couple of years taking smoke breaks together, swapping gripes, sharing snippets of your concerns, thoughts, consolations.

“Long week huh?” He murmurs, gaze drifting beyond the balcony, over skyscraper silhouettes letting their edges bleed and blend into swathes of indigo as the city seeped into twilight’s embrace.

You spill a long thin stream of smoke from your mouth, in lieu of a sigh. “Try long month.”

A low hum of empathy rumbles through Higuruma’s throat. 

“About to get longer too,” you grumble, zipping your coat back up and adjusting your ear muffs more snugly around your head. “They’re sending me out to Sapporo.”

“On your own?” 

“But at least they didn’t stinge on the accommodations this time. There’s this century old ryokan.”

“Sounds cosy?”

“You’re asking?”

“Well, they don’t seem suited for solo travelers.” 

“Higuruma-san, you travel?” 

His lips purse around his cigarette, barely conceding and concealing his smirk at your jibe. 

But you must have picked it out somehow, with the way your eyes are glimmering at him, almost daring him to defend his dearth of work-life balance. 

Instead he shrugs and says, “I don’t really know what to do on vacations.”

“There’s this rumour going around, that it’s called Relaxing.” 

“Ah, I didn’t know I was in the presence of a qualified expert.”

“That’s right. I got all my certificates up to date. I’ll give you a workshop sometime.”

“You’ll have your hands full.” 

Smoke escapes from the quirked corner of your mouth. “We gotta start somewhere.You don't always have to be a teacher's pet y'know.”

It hurts to snort, but he finds it’s inevitable around you. And if he decides to risk the short sharp inhale of frostbitten air into his dry nose and drier lungs, well, maybe that’s only because it's offset by the warm puff of your laughter, and the way your scent and strands tickle his cheek when the winter gale whistles shrilly by. 

Higuruma’s mouth twitches distinctly, and he takes another pull of tobacco, one illicit delight complementing another. “All right, send me the course material when you can.”

The conversation reaches a natural lull and the pair of you smoke quietly for a while, tendrils of smoke spiraling lazily in the air while white flurries waft down around you. 

Then the wind picks up sharply and suddenly, and you wince, inadvertently taking a half step closer to Higuruma to turn your body away from it. He doesn’t move, only slightly angling his torso in front of you.

“Yer right,” he mumbles around his cig. “This was kinda stupid.”

He plunges his hands into his pockets and you copy his tactic, shivering. 

“Very,” you correct him. Higuruma looks like he’s about to start qualifying his folly, but the cigarette dangling precariously from his mouth makes him reconsider. He takes another drag, choosing his addiction over being argumentative for once. It’s a struggle for him surely, one that you happen to relish. 

And standing this close, watching the fractional crinkling around your eyes, Higuruma knows the rare, temporary incapacitation of his eloquence is something you’re determined to take advantage of.

With your gloved hands, you’re about to gloat and pluck the cigarette from your mouth, but it tumbles to the ground, the same fabric keeping you a few degrees warmer also too thick to provide a proper grasp on the slender object. 

Your eyes flick up from the embers shriveling on the concrete to Higuruma’s irises, radiating mirth unmistakably, and the cigarette now quivering violently in his mouth as he valiantly attempts to control his mouth from overtly expressing the same sentiment, visually if not verbally.

“Oh, shut up,” you grumble despite his best efforts, and the glowing crimson end of his filter shakes even more. Higuruma looks up, away from your face for a moment to regain his composure, tilting his head back to the snowy sky.  

When he glances back down, you’re sulking around a second cigarette. 

“Stop grinning,” you mutter, “with those chapped lips of yours.” 

Higuruma arches a brow, suddenly conscious of the attention you’re giving his mouth. He takes a nervous puff or two, watching your glare ebb into a more neutral sort of focus, then shift into a mysterious sentiment he doesn’t have a name for, but with an equally mysterious yearning, strives to recall. Higuruma examines the edges of your mouth, the sakura petal pink plush of your lower lip prominent now that the scowl has melted off.

You tuck your hands back in your jacket as snow continues to fall around you, and Higuruma, caught up in his careful assessment of your lips, doesn’t notice the constellation of icy particles starting to accumulate on the hooked slope of his nose, turning it scarlet.  

You do, however. 

You incline your head slightly, trying to communicate with the gesture but Higuruma seems fixated on something else. You clamp your lips around your precious substitute cigarette, not willing to risk another accident by talking.

And so, without much thought, you tiptoe a little and rub your nose against Higuruma’s. 

His eyes go wide and you feel him jerk slightly against you, suddenly going rigid. Statuesque if not for the blooming rush of poppies colouring the rest of his countenance, now matching his nose. There’s no way you wouldn’t notice, right?

You take a small step back, wiping your own nose nonchalantly with a thumb, absorbing the last few dregs of nicotine.

“We should go inside soon, they said it’ll be sub-zero tonight,” you remark, tapping the ash off your cigarette.

“Higuruma-san? Hello?” You wave a hand in front of his face. “It’s not that cold yet. Don’t tell me your mind’s gone hibernation mode.”

Higuruma blinks. “Um yeah. I mean no. I’m just- just gonna finish this one.” He sucks on the stub of his cigarette, pinched between his fingers. There can’t be more than a couple of puffs left.

With a shrug, you say, “Well, okay…Stay warm, Higuruma. See ya.” 

Higuruma waits till your footsteps have completely faded before his hands fly to his nose, patting it with a trembling index, checking if it was still there, unable to discern if the electric tingling running up and down his bridge was hot or cold, real or unreal. 

He shakes his head with a sigh, trying to clear it of the bizarre conflicting sensations crackling in his mind, like a frozen lake beginning to teem with currents again, just below the surface. The tip of his nose feels like both like an icicle and a furnace where you brushed against him, but his mind is blank. 

There’s something sprouting, tickling like shoots through his ribs however, a suspicion that that momentary mental lapse, that short circuit he had just experienced would happen again and again; and an inkling that it was the type of brain freeze which would last well into the following summers.

Just placing more arts and things and requests here, don't mind em too much <:3

[xinyuehui]

Hello there! do you still have an older version of evolwallpaper? I was late to the party and I can't install it properly anymore T_T

Hi anon, unfortunately I no longer have the old .exe 😩 I checked weibo, other users in China are having problems with it as well, my conclusion to this is that it's a broken app full of bugs, probably got nothing to do with regions (ノへ￣、)

Babe because of your ask, I spent good 5 hours tonight trying to debug it, because I insist we all get the dynamic wallpapers!!!

Original guide // Deepspace PC guide

By the end of this tutorial, we should have a video like this applied to our computer wallpaper:

There's Nikki, MLQC, Deepspace and The Perceiver wallpapers.

New guide:

https://paperwall.papegames.com/

Same step as before, download this but don't install yet!

The following was actually hidden in their Q&A, you'll also need this for it to run, download the runtime version.

https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet-framework/net48

After you install the .NET Framework 4.8 go ahead and try to install the PAPERWALL .exe

→ If it works, great! We solved the problem!! 🎉 (You can skip to the section on the bottom on how to use the app)

→ If you get this error message, ugh congratulations, this is where I tried about 67 solutions for hours just so you don't have to

It's weird, because at this point, the thing have successfully installed on your local drive but it won't run.

Let's go back a step, if you open the .exe again, take note of where it's at on your computer. For me you can see that it's in the C drive, I presume it'll be the same for you.

Find the folder, open it

Open the app

→ If it works, great! We solved the problem!! 🎉 (You can skip to the section on the bottom on how to use the app)

→ If you get the same error message, read on:

If the images haven't loaded in the 1.0.1 version it will most likely going to crash when you try to do anything on it, so read on:

Let go back to the C drive

We are gonna move this somewhere else, if you have a hard drive, paste it to your hard drive, if you have another drive on your pc, you can move it to the other drive. BUT DO NOT MOVE IT TO YOUR DESKTOP!!!! Because we practice good computer hygiene 🙏

Once you've moved everything away, open it back up and try to install it again in your new file location

→ If it works, great! We solved the problem!! 🎉 (You can skip to the section on the bottom on how to use the app)

→ If you still get the same error message, I will send my portfolio to Paper Games to be a software developer in their office and write a new app

Once you get it running *fingers crossed* move the entire folder back to your C drive if you moved it to your hard drive, unless your hard drive is plugged in all the time.

If for whatever reason you get the "access to the path is denied" error message, try the right click and select the "Run as administrator" option.

For easy access:

Go onto your desktop, or wherever you want to access it from quickly and paste shortcut!! Remember it's the shortcut!!

───── ⑅ ♡ ⑅ ─────

How to use the app

The UI has changed a little since the original one, but it's easy to navigate.

Change the language to English, it should reboot the app

From here it's self explanatory

For good computer hygiene you might want to double check where the wallpapers are stored and change directory if needed.

If you're like me and have 2 monitors, this is what it'll look like with the wallpapers applied and the game opened, looks like I need a 3rd monitor for Shen Xinghui ⭐

(Desktop icons should show up, I just don't have icons on the desktop)

───── ⑅ ♡ ⑅ ─────

If you still have problems, check your PC specifications against the following that were recommended on the official site:

System: Windows10 or above

RAM: 1024MB or above

Processor: 1.66Hz Intel i5 or above

Graphics: HD Graphics 4000 or above

DirectX: 10

Secret third thing: you might be able to run it and have the lovely wallpapers but it suddenly goes glitchy or black screen... that's because of the faulty app, I've seen people mention it on weibo, it's not just you 😔

───── ⑅ ♡ ⑅ ─────

Feel free to drop me an ask with images if you still run into problems, hope this helps, until next time~ (✿◠‿◠)

Yuusha is such a cute name omg🥺🥺😭💞💘💞💘💗 How did you come up with and find it??? THIS NAME SUITS YUUSHA VERY GOOD XDD💞💞 HAVE A NICE DAY✨

AJBDJSSJ HI HI OYA THANK YOU SO MUCH AND WHAT A SURPRISE SEEING YOU IN MY INBOX 🥺🥺💖💖💕 I HOPE YOU HAVE A NICE DAY TOO 💕💕💕

so short version answer -> i got her name from this yuusha from a visual novel game app!! i just thought the name was so pretty so i kept it in my back pocket just in case i wanted to use it for one of my ocs, so now here i am with my yuusha!! :DDD

"yuusha" is also a protagonist/MC in the game so i just thought this tidbit from the wiki really fits her!

(longer version answer below because i kind of went on a ramble before deciding to shorten it aahhhhh 😖😖😖)

aahh so i tend to make a lot of OCs so i just keep a list full of names that i find that i think are interesting so i don't have to keep looking up new ones!

when i was looking for names with "yuu" i forgot i wrote down "yuusha" as an idea in my list and i'm so happy i found it again because if i didn't, yuusha would have been yuuki/yuki instead (because i also played obey me back then hfdnsnfd)

also also!! the yuusha which i got her name from is also an isekai protagonist into a fantasy world which is SO ironic (yuusha is their default/"canon" name in the story!)

(the game is named "Lovestruck" and it was one of my favorite visual novel games because it has a diverse collection of stories and characters, but it was recently discontinued/shut down in 2022 and you can't download it anymore 😭😭)

AAHH ANYWAYS if you've read this far, thank you so much for liking her name and i'm glad to hear you think that it suits her!! 🥺💖💕💖💕

MySims Em*lation Tutorial

Are you like me and really nostalgic for the old Sims games? Then this tutorial is for you!

Note: these are for the Wii versions of the game which take a little bit more to do with configuring the wiimote. I am using my xbox one controller, but you can use a slew of other ones or just mouse and keyboard. Tutorial below the cut!!

Download the latest version of Dolphin here

Find a ROM of either or both games (I cannot link them cause my post and shit would probably be reported)

Load up Dolphin

For graphics and config, you shouldn't have to change too much unless your game is running oddly (due to a lower end pc/laptop)

Controllers: THIS PART IS SUPER IMPORTANT I recommend these settings

Click configure next to emulated Wii Remote (sorry it's dark flux was having a fit lmfao)

make sure you tick extension: nunchuck otherwise it won't work!

under motion simulation it's necessary to have something for shake (I used Rt bumper), and point. These settings are what work best for me! You'll click the little box and map it with your controller or m+k.

Under extension, this part with simulate the nunchuck so I found these settings worked best for me.

Now that everything is mapped, you should be able to load up your game and play!

You'll unzip the ROM and on Dolphin hit open and look for your downloaded game. Have any questions? My ask box is always open!!!

PLEASE NOTE: the hacking minigame in Agents is really difficult with controller, or for me it is cause I have shaky hands, so I went to my mouse and just used that for that portion.

You will go under here to just use it right quick then switch back to gamepad

And there you have it! I hope y'all find it helpful!

ALSO: you can take screenshots and they'll be in your folder like this 😁

[wildbasil]

I wasn't going to open commissions again until July or August but I'm incredibly broke right now hahaha so opening a few headshots if anyone's interested!

I have some free time this week so if you order today or tomorrow, I'll aim to get it done this week

[jumpingjoltiks]

To the people who say nice things about my fics when sending in requests, I hope you know you are the only reason I'm continuing with this stuff

[galaxiar]

here’s a vivian doodle (inspired by an older drawing shhh) & a mallow doodle!! get a load of these guys amirite..
