2025 book bingo tbr

i'm gonna be following the 2025 book bingo created by the magnanimous @batmanisagatewaydrug and i have just completed (to the extent i can today) my tbr! (this has also inspired me into making a list of 25 things i need to do 25 times throughout 2025... so if there's one thing i will be next year, it is occupied). i drew from books that i own/my roommate owns as much as possible.

Literary Fiction: Luster by Raven Leilani (which has been on my libby holds list since mackenzie last recommended it. abt 20 weeks to go).

2. Short Story Collection: Cursed Bunny by Bora Chung, translated by Anton Hur (advanced reader's copy i got for free from my college's book club)

3. A Sequel: A Day of Fallen Night by Samantha Shannon

4. Childhood Favorite: The Sword of Darrow by Alex and Hal Malchow or Heidi by Johanna Spyri or something i find when i am home for the holidays that calls my soul more than these two

5. 20th Century Speculative Fiction: The Silmarillion by J. R. R. Tolkein (because TECHNICALLY it counts)

6. Fantasy: Piranesi by Susanna Clarke (one of the few remaining Book of the Month editions i still own)

7. Published Before 1950: Spoon River Anthology by Edgar Lee Masters, published in 1915

8. Independent Publisher: I Love Information by Courtney Bush, published by Milkweed Editions (will need to either get over my fear of going to the library in person to set up my online account and put a hold on this OR purchase a copy)

9. Graphic Novel/Comic Book/Manga: Fun Home by Allison Bechdel or Saga by writer Brian K. Vaughan and artist Fiona Staples, have not decided (both owned by my roommate)

10. Animal on the Cover: Diminished Capacity by Sherwood Kiraly (he was my playwriting/fiction professor and gave me my copy of the novel)

11. Set in a Country You Have Never Visited: Euphoria by Lily King, set in New Guinea (owned by my roommate)

12. Science Fiction: Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency by Douglas Adams

13. 2025 Debut Author: Julie Chan is Dead by Liann Zhang, expected May 2025 (another physical hold or purchase situation)

14. Memoir: Reading With Patrick by Michelle Kuo (commencement speaker at my graduation!)

15. Read a Zine, Make a Zine: tbd! will probably be more than one!

16. Essay Collection: The Book of Difficult Fruit by Kate Lebo

17. 2024 Award Winner: How to Say Babylon by Safiya Sinclair, NBCC Award for Autobiography (will borrow from libby, audiobook is also available)

18. Nonfiction: Learn Something New: I was paying more attention to the nonfiction part than the learn something new part and i do need to find a new book for this because originally i was gonna go with one of Caitlin Doughty's novels which, while lovely, are not something New To Me. i know i have a biography of Anna Freud somewhere so maybe i will dig that up? otherwise it might be a scroll-through-libby adventure

19. Social Justice & Activism: The Theater of War by Bryan Doerries (read a few chapters first year of undergrad but never the whole thing so technically it counts as a new book for me)

20. Romance Novel: Once Upon a Broken Heart by Stephanie Garber

21. Read and Make a Recipe: Jane Austen's Table by Robert Tuesley Anderson, specific recipe to be determined upon reading

22. Horror: Flowers in the Attic by V. C. Andrews (owned and recommended by my roommate as a good option for me, because i do not do well with horror. respect the genre so much!! but my anxiety disorder)

23. Published in the Aughts: Throne of Jade by Naomi Novik (just got my thrift books copy a couple weeks ago. i am making myself SAVOR this series)

24. Historical Fiction: Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen

25. Bookseller or Librarian Recommendation: tbd upon getting over my fears and actually visiting my library in person! it's a five minute walk from my apartment i do not know what my problem is

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. spread the self-love ❤

I got TWO?!?! @puzzl-d sent theirs while I was still typing this one up, so cheating and just screen capping theirs and throwing out a tag (hope you don't mind)

I am going to totally shock everyone and not self rec TWoF (longfic), mainly bc I'm at a point right now where I am wanting to abandon my current progress and start on a rewrite to make things smoother and more cohesive in the earlier chapters.

White Lady - I can't tell you how many times I've re-read the Bakura backstory for TWoF. The fact that it can be read stand-alone is even better.

Returned - The Gemshipping 'TKB catches a cold' fic that is another one I have re-read no less than a dozen times.

Our Scars remind Us that the Past was Real - The TKB 2nd chance fic that is still ongoing (I swear it's going to get finished, I just have to get brain to cooperate. Once I get current chapter to play nice, it won't be long before Atem comes back into the picture).

An unhealthy Obsession - The post-DSOD toxic Tendershipping fic. It's only been posted 3 months now and I've probably re-read it at least 6 or so times.

The Lion and the Mouse - This is the Malik (Yami Marik) backstory for TWoF. This one can also be read stand-alone. I do enjoy re-reading this one, but I have to re-read it directly from my docs to avoid the anxiety of seeing only 4 guest kudos when I get to the bottom. I've recently fixed a few of the tags to clarify that Malik and Safiya are in no way related in this AU (Safiya is the OC name I've given to Mrs. Ishtar).

(Friendly reminder: Please read the tags and warnings. If I forget an important one that you think should be there, please don't hesitate to reach out)

Bonus (since I got two of these):

Going to list of my 5 fave AU's that are just chilling in the Rabbit Hutch (what I call my bunny docs lol) that I find myself randomly going back and scanning over

Deathshipping AU aka. 'Running into Mister Tall, Dark, and Handsome...with a car' (unrequited angstshipping at the start)

WereKat AU (I really need to come up with names for all the weird and convoluted ships I throw Kat into lol)

NB TKB AU (this is actually the ongoing RP with @resuri-art)

YGO-WoW crossover (basically World of Warcraft with YGO characters; hinted heartshipping at the start, eventually becomes puzzle/blindshipping and gemshipping. Potential for whatever you call Yugi/Ryou/Atem/TKB polyship)

VRMMO AU (recently added to docs, but been thinking about it on and off for at least a year now; basically FFXIV meets SAO with YGO characters. Potential caste/king/darkshipping (no idea if TKB or Yami B flavor of Bakura yet))

[kheprriverse]

I have plans to add midna i just haven’t shown y’all her updated ref yet so shes hidden atm. I’ll probs also add Tefke (and Safiya if I get started on her ref).

It's been done... got convinced to join so I added some of my sillies from the loz au, monhun, and other ocs. Feel free to ask me to add other characters though :>

AR in Media

Pokemon Go

Pokemon Go uses AR when catching Pokemon by using your camera to make it look like the Pokemon is on the table, on the grass ect. Anywhere your phone is facing and the Pokemon happens to be you will be able to see it like as if it was in real life.

"Travel between the real world and the virtual world of Pokémon with Pokémon GO for iPhone and Android devices. With Pokémon GO, you'll discover Pokémon in a whole new world—your own! Pokémon GO gives you the chance to explore real locations and search far and wide for Pokémon. More and more Pokémon continue to appear around the globe, including rare and powerful Legendary Pokémon."

"As you move around the places where you live and visit, your smartphone can vibrate to let you know when you're near a Pokémon. Once you've encountered a Pokémon, take aim on your smartphone's touch screen and throw a Poké Ball to catch it—but be careful, or it might run away! Also look for PokéStops located at interesting places—such as public art installations, historical markers, and monuments—where you can collect more Poké Balls and other items."

the site:

Social Media

Social media, such as snapchat, instagram and facebook, ahave face filters, some just give you a little touch up others just add a pair of bunny ears or anything simular. I think its cool and I do like it but sometimes the filters mess with your face when they were only supposed to put some stars on your face. I think they are ok but I wouldn't really make one.

Filters, lenses, and stickers

"Snaps can be personalised with various forms of visual effects and stickers. Geofilters are graphical overlays available if the user is within a certain geographical location, such as a city, event, or destination. Users can design and create their own geofilters for personal events at a fee of $10–15 USD per hour. They can also subscribe to an annual plan which ranges from $1,000 to $10,000 depending on the location, for a permanent filter. A similar feature known as Geostickers was launched in 10 major cities in 2016. Bitmoji are stickers featuring personalised cartoon avatars, which can be used in snaps and messaging. Bitmoji characters can also be used as World Lenses."

"The "Lens" feature, introduced in September 2015, allows users to add real-time effects into their snaps by using face detection technology. This is activated by long-pressing on a face within the viewfinder. In April 2017, Snapchat extended this feature into "World Lenses", which use augmented reality technology to integrate 3D rendered elements (such as objects and animated characters) into scenes; these elements are placed and anchored in 3D space."

RTFK - Nike Clothing

"Founded in 2020, by Benoit Pagotto, Chris Le and Steven Vasilev, RTFKT is a pioneering and innovative brand that redefines the boundaries of physical and digital value to serve their broad community of creators. This dedicated team leverages the latest in game engines, NFTs, blockchain authentication and augmented reality to create one of a kind virtual products and experiences."

I think this is a cool idea, the whole vibe of wearing sunglasses that read QR codes on hoodies and shirts so you can see the cool wings on someone. It makes avatar creation into a reality and I think it is pretty cool. But there can be issues with the practicality of it like how expensive it is or how most people are not doing this so someone will just be walking around with a barcode on it and i might be a waste of its potential. I watched this video a while ago of Safiya Niyagaared with digital clothing. It was only for social media though.

It was very interesting and informed me about editing clothing on people in videos. I feel like I could make a lot of really cool accessories and designs if i had the opportunity to make things like that. I think after a while it could be something people could do naturally and use normally.

AR can also be used to make filters for certain areas something called GEOAR which means you only have access to certain filers in certain areas. The stranger things one is pretty cool and I believe it is quite true to the show. But I do feel as if maybe the little mini guy looks less where it is supposed to be. It looks like a png.

I myself probably wouldn't use these filters as they aren't very interesting to me. It isn't my thing to take a photo of myself for everyone to see but I appreciate the effort put into the flower faced guy when it came to modelling and colouring it.

[mymarifae]

another melatonin-induced idea but i think giselle deserves a girlfriend. like yeah yeah okay she got her heart hurt but i think she should try love again. it would probably be sometime after her and berdly reconcile and get closer, so she like. makes sure to check up on her kid more often! texts him semi-frequently, makes sure he isn’t stressing schoolwork, aaaaand stopping by the library while he’s working to make sure he’s not overexerting himself. which is how she bumps into the librarian (who definitely hasn’t always been there. who knows she could not exist in canon but i’ve decided there’s one). the librarian looks to be around giselles age and is kinda quiet, but is incredibly kind. the only reason she even Hired berdly to work at the library is bc she noticed how much time he spent alone there anyway and wanted to give him an incentive to keep studying and creating (incentive meaning money. but she sure as shit ain’t getting that money from the budget LOL she pays berdly out of pocket).

berdly rlly likes her bc she basically served as a surrogate mom while his actual mom was working, AND she lets him play flash games on the front desk computer when it isn’t busy. and it’s not like the librarian has never Seen giselle before—she has and she is in fact quite enamored with giselle before they even rlly meet. and so when giselle starts popping in more often, the more the librarian sticks around the front desk to chat with her while berdly wraps up his shift duties. and like. don’t get me wrong. it takes giselle some time to be into her. she’s very cagey about her true feelings and that tends to let her shut them out entirely for a time. but then idk the librarian drives berdly back to his house in a snowstorm and giselle thanks her and offers for her to come inside and have a glass of wine (which she does) and then it’s alllllllllllll downhill from there lol

idk i just think it’s funny for berdly to walk in all grumpy one day and noelle asks him why and he’s like “well i think i caught my mom and THE LIBRARIAN kissing behind the librarby”. anyways i love making characters and i think the librarian would be like uh. like uhhhhhh idk rabbit is coming to mind but i also think it’d be funny if she was Also a bird monster. like an owl or something. i don’t have a name for her tho bc i’m bad at those. but i think she does poetry and crocheting in her free time. she wears cardigans (handmade) and sweaters (also handmade) with looooong pleated skirts. anyway that’s it lol

SCREAMING AND WAILING AND SOBBING AND CRYING AND-

AND WAILING AND FLAILING AROUND AND SCREAMING AND THROWING THINGS AND-

no because this concept is perfect. how do you keep doing it. like i don't even have anything to add other than some wip doodles because you just knocked it out the fucking ballpark with this one i'm so happy.. 🥺 it's what she deserves. a chance to fall in love the RIGHT way

an owl is an extremely adorable idea btw but i've wanted to design a pretty bunny lady for months now but i had no reason to so i never did BUT NOW I GET TO. names i have written on tiny slips of paper that i threw into a bucket to be chosen from at random: blaire, lottie (possibly short for charlotte or maybe it's just lottie), anastasia, safiya, orrr imogen (do you want to pick?you should pick this all came from you :) )

Current Projects

It’s been a little while, and I’ve released several projects this year, so I thought I ought to write a post about the new projects I’m currently working on!

1) My Dear Prince

My Dear Prince is a cute and light-hearted yuri VN set in modern-day Japan, on a small island largely populated by bunnies.

The main character, Momoka, is a cheerful teenage girl who works at a seaside café owned by a family friend.

During the summer vacation, a girl called Aoi comes to stay with Momoka and her family for a couple of weeks. Aoi is from Toyko and Momoka, who has never been far beyond her small island, fears Aoi will tease her for being sheltered.

Momoka and Aoi get off to an awkward beginning, but as Momoka shows Aoi around her island and introduces her to her friends at the café, her feelings towards her gradually shift.

Perhaps they can be friends after all... or even something more?

My Dear Prince is an all-ages story largely devoid of fanservice, with a focus on comedy and developing romance. It’s a kinetic story with no choices and only one ending. It’s the closest of these projects to being finished, and might be released at the end of this year, or early next.

2) Salome’s Kiss

Salome’s Kiss is a dark yuri VN set in the Victorian era. The main character, Letitia, is a young governess tormented by her mounting feelings for her young student, the sixteen-year-old Clara. Convinced that she has fallen in love, and fearful of her secret being discovered, Letitia quits her job to take a new position in the secluded manor house of Hatton. Hatton is a desolate house surrounded by sprawling moors. The house itself is draped in ivy, and it’s run by the fierce and unnerving housekeeper, Miss Wry. In Hatton, Letitia meets her newest pupil: a young woman called Genevieve. Already eighteen, Genevieve is much older than Letitia expected, and her flirtatious, over-familiar demeanour soon drives Letitia to distraction. Trapped in an old, eerie house on the moors, and disturbed by her feelings for Genevieve, Letitia’s nerves begin to fracture - a matter that is made all the worse by the disturbing rumours circulating among Hatton’s maids about their elusive employer and Genevieve’s father, Arthur. Salome’s Kiss is an 18+ story with explicit sexual scenes, and includes themes some may find disturbing, such as murder and sexual violence (mentioned, but not depicted). It would not be suitable for all audiences. It’s a kinetic story with no choices/branches. It was inspired by various gothic horror novels such as Collins’s The Woman in White and Waters’s Affinity.

3) Embraced by Autumn

Embraced by Autumn is a sweet BxG slice of life VN set in France during the late 1890s.

The main character, Marcel, is the son of an infamous actor. Routinely mocked at school because of his feminine appearance and quiet demeanour, Marcel finds it hard to fit in.

Marcel’s situation grows all the more precarious when his father gets embroiled in a scandalous affair with a young man.

Fearful that her son will be subject to further harassment, Marcel’s mother sends him to an all-girls’ boarding school in the countryside run by her older sister, Albertine.

Marcel, now Marcelle, develops friendships with his classmates, helps them with their problems, and falls in love.

Embraced by Autumn is an all-ages story devoid of fanservice. It has four unique routes for four female characters. It was inspired by Colette’s Claudine at School and VNs such as Otokoboku.

4) All Ashes and Illusions

All Ashes and Illusions is a dark BxG VN set in an Arabian-inspired world.

The main character, Yuel, is the only son and heir of the king. His father is a tyrant and a bully, his mother beautiful but aloof, and Yuel grows up largely neglected. On Yuel’s sixth birthday, his mother is put to death by her jealous husband for adultery. Yuel is forced to watch her execution: an event that haunts him. Instructed by his father that all women are snakes and liars, Yuel finds it impossible to trust any woman after his mother’s death save his kind nursemaid, Safiya. Yuel’s relationship with Safiya does not last, however. He grows older, and soon Safiya’s services are no longer needed. She steps down as Yuel’s nursemaid, marries, and starts a family of her own.Yuel tries to put Safiya from his mind, but cannot. Safiya was the only person to comfort him after his mother’s death, and she promised she would not leave him. How could she abandon him, after all the faith he placed in her? Yuel’s feelings for Safiya continue to grow, even in her absence. When his father dies and Yuel assumes the throne at the age of twenty, he vows to get Safiya back, no matter the cost - and no matter who it hurts. All Ashes and Illusions is an 18+ story featuring an uncomfortable relationship with a large age gap and a significant power imbalance. The sexual scenes are all of dubious consent, and the story includes depictions of murder and violence, alongside a lot of casual misogyny. It would not be suitable for all audiences. It’s a kinetic story with no choices/branches. The story was largely inspired by Henry VIII and his famously poor treatment of his wives.

Summary

These are all the stories I’m working on!

My Dear Prince is the most far along in development and should be released in early 2021. The others will be released at a later date.

There’s a couple of pretty unpleasant stories in here, so I understand wholly if you want to give them a wide berth haha ;;

OK HEAR ME OUT 

If the Sims were going to collaborate with a makeup brand they could have REALLY gone off if: they collaborated with Colourpop. Yes Colourpop does ALL the collaborations and it’s a bit out of hand but you wanna know why??? BECAUSE THEY ARE DAMN GOOD AT IT.

1. Had Colourpop been in charge of the in game sims things I’m pretty sure we would have gotten actual makeup trends, because.... like damn sometimes they are making them. 

These are all reposts from ~influencers~ on their instagram, but wOW FUN. And look... no sperm liner. RN fun funky eyeliner is SURE doing colourful liner, bUT it’s also all about negative space. 

2. Colourpop would have released a makeup set inspired by the Sims and if you look at the artwork they do for their collabs just IMAGINE what we could have gotten?????? And it it’s colourpop releasing makeup it would have been idk affordable. Also they are CF and mac isn’t so fuck you mac anyway. Although they “claim” they are changing yeah ok call me when you are leaping bunny certified. I need to remember to dl the mod that hides those stupid makeup items.

ANYWAY look at some of their collaborations and then tell me that you don’t think they would GO ABSOLUTELY OFF with the sims as a starting point for design.

I personally own the Safiya collab (which was just lipsticks! because sometimes that’s all you need!!!! and that’s also Saf’s fave makeup item!!! wOW) and the design in that is :chefkiss: but simple.

and now for the point that i want to harp on the most.

Colourpop is technically a drugstore brand. Mac is high end. This is Mosquito all over again. TS4 is so desperate to advertise to a younger crowd and what do you think they’d be more likely to buy???? This could have been a BIG splash of a collab, and both companies could have made money (idk if maybe covid stopped mac from releasing any makeup along with this but tbh i don’t care) But no, it was a patch note.

This is all very all over the place but here’s a TL;DR Colourpop does amazing collabs these days, are more affordable for TS4 intended audience, and wouldn’t have made sperm eyeliner.

and I’m personally salty that there isn’t a nice 9 Pan Sims palette that colourpop could have/ would have made. I’m sure there other brands could have done a great job too, but this was the first thought i had :shrug:
