#take care of yourself!!

[meownotgood]

Hii mags! How are you?

You probably don't remember it, but around june-july last year I sent an ask talking about how I had started a hair transition back to my natural curly hair (I don't know if "hair transition" is actually how you call it in english but I'll go with that).

I said something about how it looked weird because of the transition, specially since I had cut it short (like a channel cut) and I asked for some thoughts of aki supporting me through this change.

Back then it was a big blow on my already low self steem because the lady didn't cut it as short as I would like it, and that made the different textures in my hair very apparent, wich made it very hard to style for me since I had been straigthening my hair since I was 13 and had no idea how to properly care for or style curly hair.

I wanted to thank you for those aki thoughts you wrote back then. It might seem silly, but whenever I felt like giving up on my curls and just straightening it again I thought about aki suporting me through all of those months.

In december I finally gathered enough courage to try to get a haircut again. I went to a barber this time and showed him some reference pics of how I wanted it cut and he didn't even question it. I was so happy to not hear him say things like "that's too short for a lady" or "it'll make you look more masculine" like that lady that gave me the channel cut said.

I was kinda scared of cutting my hair so short because I have a chubby face, so I thought it wouldn't flatter me, but it was the best decision I could have done. This lenght brings out my curls way more than a long one and it's easier to style.

Anyway, all that yapping from me was just to thank you for the aki thoughts. I still think back to them every now and then.

Sorry for writing a bible in your inbox, I was just gonna thank you and ask for more thoughts on aki reacting to his s/o finally showing up with the new curly haircut, but I got carried away 🥲

You don't need to write them if you don't want to, I'll be happy if you just read this essay I wrote. I love your writing and your blog is one of the few that I have turned the notifications on because I genuinely like to read all your posts.

Have a lovely day/night 💕💕

awe of course I remember!! I'm glad to hear you are doing okay and that my aki thoughts could help you 🥹 I'm sure you look amazing and it's so great that you're loving your new haircut too :D

aki would compliment you so much... I think he gets so shy when you get a haircut because it's different but so adorable on you... he's just all blushy and glancing away whenever you're around. he tries to come up with a nonchalant way to tell you he thinks you look good, but he ends up all flustered anyways...

thank you so much for enjoying my blog, I feel fortunate that it could mean something to you in that way, I am sending you love 🫂❤️

happy easter, or if you don’t celebrate, enjoy the long weekend! and in case you haven’t heard this in a while, you’re so strong, even if you don’t need to be. i love you, my dog loves you, and you’re doing so amazingly, and i’m so proud of you.

remember to take breaks when you need them, and if you haven’t eaten in a while, go get a snack, or go get some water if you haven’t had a drink recently! take care of yourself!

okay mwah!!

Can you talk about ur sona a lil with us:3?

Yeah sure!!

They are based on a species in a book I'm writing! I mostly have them small (3ft?) but they can get a little bigger (at most 4'9ft because I'm that height) Their chest has a big hole(?) in it (i drew it but its too small so I'm gonna change it) where a crystal (Chrystal?) is placed. With thin lines that connect to the back of the hole(?) and to the crystal. It plays at being a heart but if it cracks the skin and mental and emotional stability also crack. The species can look like humans but they need artificial skin and a small drop of blood from a human/mortal that can help.

My sona is actually a broken off piece from another. My sona is nicknamed Love and its other half has no name. My sona took the emotions and the other half has the abilities/strength basically

I think thats it for now? Im not sure but I can remember them all I'll add them later!

Thank you for this, really helped my day<3

HELLO MY NEW FAVORITE WRITER💘 so I have to work tomorrow and my job is sooo stressful, (I’m a pharmacist. It is harder than it looks). I need something to read during lunch to provide just a bit of escapism. Which of your fics did you enjoy writing most, or which has stuck with you the longest?

AHHH hello darling (thank you so much that is a big honour) I sound like a broken record to regulars here but I’d say that the fics that stayed with me are both antecedent (touya/reader) and life is the tillage (kita/reader). I return to those when I’m feeling a little low!! if you’re looking for a pick-me-up then I think my hq fics are a little more suited to that than my bnha or jjk ones <3 whatever you pick, I hope tomorrow is kind to you — you’re doing good work !!!

So Arthur actually did the thing, you know. That oh so romantic thing described in all fantasy romantic books, where the main character rips a piece of their clothing to bandage their not so lover’s wound.

So like, Arthur ripped his tunic to bandage Merlin’s bicep. And made a silly joke about it, even? “First battle wound :D.” He was so excited, and Merlin was worried about Arthur’s clothes too.

But they’re not canon, apparently, yeah, okay, fine. Believe what you want. *rolls eyes*

Wait you had autism and still got along with the other kids and knew what was going on with them?? I was never able to do that! I still chose to do my own thing but would have been unable to answer those questions.

I mean I didn't really WANNA make friends for a super long time so it didn't really matter? And if anyone was outright mean I don't think I noticed till like 6th grade.

After 6th a few other kids liked to throw or kick things at my face or steal my art supplies or give me mean nicknames- I remember almost all the boys in my class one year started a thing where if I got within 4 feet of them they'd yell "[tea] GERMS!" and make a dramatic mad-dash escape, and that was kinda hurtful, but IDK how long that was a thing??

Anyhow I started asking them if they had a crush on me or if they were just stupid, and when they asked what I meant I'd just be like "well there's two reasons boys act stupid around girls. Either you have a crush on me, or you're just always this stupid"

And that invariably led to them yelling "I'm stupid, I'm stupid!" or telling me, "I'd rather say I'm stupid than say I like you!"

Which might have been hurtful if I wasn't growing into a mild superiority complex that assured me I was smarter than them, and nicer than them, and there was really no need to desire the approval of stupid, mean people.

(This was, of course, backed up by the fact that my father was one of those mean, stupid sorts of people, and I fully beleived if I could handle him, I could handle anyone my size, and so what if you dont like me? My own dad doesnt like me, am i supposed to value your opinion?)

Then by highschool I got hot, and if one of them started chatting me up I'd just be like "You wrote in my yearbook in 2002 that I was a huge loser. Why would I want to hang out with you"

And by THEN I'd met enough genuinely fun, interesting people who actually liked me that I was never around anyone who openly disliked me anyways.

Not until I started to realize I wasn't 100% a girl and cut my hair off- Then I started hearing other girls whispering to each other that I looked like a lesbian- gasp- which, again, was actually pretty funny, 'cause then I'd just tell them not to get their hopes up 'cause I wasn't available.

Then I graduated, and moved, and it turns out I'm actually kind of hot funny smart and successful, and whenever I fall into the deep deep pit of dumb ugly stupid imposter-syndrome, I remember that as mean as other kids were sometimes, their parents thought I was the best.

So anyways get fucked Gabe from ninth grade, your mom used to give me candy and bail me out of detention. I had the biggest fucking crush on your mom dude
