My name is Valerie, like the Steve Winwood song. Please consider taking the time to read this post before interacting or following.

Note: Real life has been kicking my ass lately, so this blog and my writing sideblog, The Open Door, are both on semi-hiatus/queue.

🔷39 years old 🔷She/Her 🔷Black 🔷Multi-fandom writer

Selfship Art

This art of Grimmjow and me was done by the lovely and talented annypuff (please go check out her other art!).

This art of Suguru and me was done by the lovely and talented @starrnai - please go check out the other selfship art Nai has done!

My goal is to keep my tumblr experience as enjoyable and anxiety-free as possible. To that end, I have found that it is sometimes better for me personally to follow tags instead of specific blogs - so, if you decide to follow and find that I have not followed back, please don't take it personally!

Frequently Used Tags (will be added to accordingly; please feel free to block/filter as you see fit):

🔷tinywoodenrobot fics - my fics 🔷how do people art? - art I like 🔷filed under: blue - me screaming about Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez 🔷filed under: asterisk - Bleach-related things 🔷filed under: my tiny tea man - me screaming about Levi Ackerman 🔷filed under: utsukushiki zankokuna sekai - AOT-related things 🔷filed under: one trek mind - Star Trek-related things 🔷filed under: Akari - JJK-related things 🔷filed under: a galaxy far far away - Star Wars-related things 🔷filed under: val watches k-drama - k-drama-related things 🔷filed under: val writes things - non-fic writing 🔷filed under: flying strawberry - Ichigo being Ichigo 🔷filed under: plus ultra - BNHA/MHA-related things 🔷my queuepid's bow - queued posts 🔷filed under: water for the soul - music I like 🔷fic rec: other peoples' writing that I love

Current work in progress: Magnolia (a JJK Vampire AU - Geto Suguru x Geto Satoru x Original Female Character)

I write for a few different fandoms, including Bleach, Attack on Titan, and the Cybird Ikemen games (though I am largely moving away from writing for otome). My works will always be posted to my AO3, even if they are not posted in full to Tumblr.

My writing sideblog is called The Open Door, and there is where you can find some of my recent fics, both completed and in-progress. Fics will be added to the catalogue there as I organize.

I tend to write long fics with multiple chapters. I also tend to write my fics with Black MCs/OCs. Many of the things I write for my OCs are based on my personal experience. I also write both canon and non-canon pairings and focus mainly on AU writings. Some of my work is NSFW, and it will always be clearly marked as such. If you're a minor, I ask that you not interact - it keeps you safe and me comfortable.

My KoFi

🔷Shingeki no Kyojin | Attack on Titan 🔷Bleach 🔷Ikemen Vampire 🔷Ikemen Prince 🔷Ikemen Sengoku 🔷Ikemen Revolution 🔷Ouran High School Host Club 🔷Haikyuu! 🔷Shinya Shokudo | Midnight Diner 🔷Tonari no Kaibutsu-Kun 🔷Pacific Rim

Negativity and hate of any kind are not welcome here; if you decide to interact, please be kind. 😌 Thank you for stopping by!

Last song: Bon Jovi - (You Want to) Make a Memory. Been binging this song a lot lately because I’m trying to channel a particular brand of angst for something ashgkahsg

Last movie: Puteri Gunung Ledang (The Mount Ledang Princess). Please watch it if they’re available on your Netflix uwu  ❤ While not necessarily accurate about our (Malaysia’s) 15th century folktale/legend, it’s still a pretty movie and my sappy, angst-loving self love it very much! 

(Once you know who Hang Tuah is, then I can push my agenda on the real tragic love story of him and his Best Bro, Hang Jebat!)

Currently watching: Shinya Shokudo (Midnight Diner) because I’m feeling guilty that I haven’t been practicing/studying my Japanese since I stopped my class back in September :’x so just want to watch something light and slice of life-y so I can catch up

Currently reading: Does fic count because I honestly can’t remember when was the last time I touched a physical book. Oh wait, I reread Prisoner of Azkaban back in April so does that count then?

Currently craving: Achievable: Japanese food (damn you Shinya Shokudo); Unachievable: a trip to the beach because my beach bum self is wilting
