i’d love to see it, keep up the amazing work!

love koogiie 🍓

𝐓he bell above the door jingles, a familiar sound that barely registers anymore. it���s late, past midnight, and the fluorescent lights of the convienne store hum a lonely tune. you’re restocking the ramen shelves, humming along to the song playing from the tiny speaker behind the counter, when you see her.

she’s tall and thin, with a haunted look in her eyes that seem to absorb the harsh glow. she moves with a strange grace, like a stray cat who knows every alleyway in the city. it’s Saebyeok, and she’s a regular, though “regular” feels too casual for someone who exudes such a guarded energy. she always comes in late, grabs a pack of cigarettes, and maybe a drink, usually without a word.

your heart does a little flip, a nervous flutter you’ve come to recognize. she’s intriguing, in a way that makes your palms sweat a little. you push a stray strand of hair behind your ear, and, despite all your better judgment, you decide to be friendly.

“late night, huh?” you chirp, your voice a little too high-pitched. you flash her a wide, hopefully not creepy smile.

she doesn’t smile back. or even look at you, really. she grabs a pack of cigarettes, pays, and walks towards the door.

“have a good night!” you call after her, your voice tinged with a bit of embarrassment.

you tell yourself she didn’t hear you, but the truth is, she heard. she’s just not interested.

the next night, she’s back. same time, same kind of cigarettes. you tell yourself you’ll play it cool, be nonchalant, but the moment you see her you’re back to your usual, bubbly self.

“hey! how’s it going?” you ask, leaning on the counter as you try to look cool. you are desperately failing. “anything interesting happen today?”

she doesn’t answer. she doesn’t even make eye contact. she just grabs her things, pays, and leaves.

okay, you think. maybe she’s just not a talker. but you’re stubborn. and maybe, just a little, you’re drawn to her quiet mystery.

you make a point of learning her usual order. you start stocking her favorite brand of cigarettes by the register so they’re easier for her to grab. you’ve even started leaving out a small bag of her favorite chips, just in case she wants them. you leave it on the counter, a silent offering.

she ignores it at first. then, one night, as she’s leaving, you see her glance at the bag. for the briefest moment, you think you see a flicker of something in her eyes that isn’t cold indifference.

it’s a small victory, but it fuels you. you keep talking to her, babbling about your day, your annoying coworkers, the latest tv show you’re obsessed with. she doesn’t respond for the most part, but sometimes, just sometimes, you notice a subtle shift in her posture, a tiny twitch of her lips. she’s listening. you know it.

one rainy night, you’re both the only ones in the store as you mop the floors. Saebyeok comes in, her usually stoic face looking even more pale in the dim lighting. she’s soaking wet, her hair plastered to her forehead. you see a small scrape on her hand that you know she’s probably too proud to care for.

“oh my god, you’re drenched!” you blurt out. you quickly grab a clean towel from behind the counter. “here, you gotta dry off.” you offer it to her.

she hesitates, then slowly takes the towel. you watch her awkwardly pat her hair, her movements surprisingly delicate. for a moment, the walls you always see her putting up seem to waver.

“you should probably clean that,” you say, pointing to the graze on her hand. you reach for the first aid kit.

she raises an eyebrow, but doesn’t refuse as you dab antiseptic on the scratch, bandaging it gently. you feel your face flush as you work.

“thank you.” she murmurs, her voice barely audible, but it’s the first time you’d ever heard it.

it’s quiet, but that small thank you is enough. you beam at her. this is a progress, a breakthrough.

over time, the silence that once surrounded Saebyeok starts to feel less like a wall and more like a quiet understanding. she doesn’t talk much, but she’ll occasionally meet your gaze, a slight curve to her lips as you tell another story. you catch her watching you as you dance along to the music while restocking shelves. she starts grabbing a soda along with her cigarettes, and she sometimes even accepts the bag of chips you leave out. you start to feel a warmth settle in your chest whenever she comes in.

one night, she stays a little longer. you’re closing up, counting the till, and she leans against the counter, watching you.

“why?” she asks, her voice low.

“why what?” you ask, confused.

“why are you so…” she trails off, searching for the right word. “nice?”

your heart clenches at the question. “i don’t know,” you admit with a nervous laugh, “you just seem like you need a friend.”

a small, almost imperceptible smile appears on her face.

“maybe.” she whispers, her eyes meeting yours.

that night, you realize something has shifted. it’s not just a friendship that you’re forging with this quiet, guarded woman. there’s something else, a pull, a connection that leaves you breathless and a little scared. your heart skips a beat, the same little nervous flip, but this time, it’s joined by a slow, burning warmth. it’s something you can’t deny, something you desperately hope she feels too. and she does, but she won’t tell you that. you catch her gaze, and the look in her dark eyes sends a shiver down your spine. you’re not just friends anymore. and maybe, that’s exactly what you’ve both been hoping for.

(Personal talk)

Everytime a male reader coming in my inbox surprised me because "thank you, i'm glad it is up to your liking" then they'd like to request for male character baffles me more because "OH DANG, GAY MAN?"

I don't mind at all just never expected you guys to come here too. I don't explicitly write for male readers, so all readers here all feminine/neutral.

Again, all readers are welcome here, i do write more for female characters as a lot of my followers are women enjoyers, i will do male cgaracters too.

Thank you fot all the kind messages during my hiatus!

[squiddokiddo]

Lol thanks.

The only reason I asked them is because it immediately seemed fishy. They messaged me on my main when all my art is on my side blogs, they hadn't liked, reblogged or commented on my art. Usually when someone actually "loves" your work they'll rave about it and be able to tell you which ones they like the most. "Ones you posted to your profile" isn't a good answer because I don't post art directly onto my main anymore and I have over a hundred pieces of art scattered over my blogs. It was kinda obvious they had no idea what they were talking about. (;– –)

Another thing that tipped me off was the request of drawing their son with his name on it, I remember watching a YouTube video about this kind of thing a while back I remembered that this is a very common request these scammers use for some reason.

The scam itself from what I understand has nothing to do with the art, it's a PayPal scam. When they "pay" you for your commission they'll send over a large sum and ask for a refund, when you refund them they go back to PayPal and cancel their payment so they get double the sum and you lose the commission money. Either that or they'll send fake receipts claiming that they've paid and claim that you're the scammer for not giving them their art demanding a refund, this is to make you panic and send the money over to them.

When someone asks for a commission make sure to question them, reverse image search any photos they send you and look closely for AI generated images, don't let them pressure you into making shit for them or sending them money.

Stay safe.💕

⚠️ WARNING ⚠️

Just had this conversation, had alllll the red flags of a scammer. Be careful my Thunderfam.🚩🚩

type - lyney

[random writing event] | requested by anon

He wasn’t the type that cared much for rest. It was a fact everyone knew well. Even though his siblings would take time for themselves, Lyney was always on the move. If it wasn’t performing free shows in the city square, it was running different missions for Father or buying presents for the other orphans. Even the times he was home he’d be up late planning new magic tricks and things of the like.

You weren’t the pushy type. Though you were of the many children in the House, you weren’t close to him like Lynette. You didn’t know him well enough to force him to sleep. You weren’t even brave enough to enter his workroom much of the time. At the very least, you could share your concerns with Lynette. You could leave a cup of chamomile tea on his desk before he came home for the evening. You could only hope if that was enough.

Lyney wasn’t the type that relied on others. You found that out well that day you just so happened to hear him snap at Freminet. You couldn’t help but feel empathy for the young cryo user. Even you noticed Lyney was beginning to look more and more haggard. Was it due to Father’s expectations? Or worries of Fontaine’s future? 

You weren’t the motherly type. There were people you knew that were easy to open up to. When you were stressed, they would gather you into their arms and give you words of comfort. But you weren’t like that. People rarely ever came to you for help. What more could you do than to take on more missions from Father? You were a reliable skilled agent. At the very least, you could take some of the burdens off his plate.

He wasn’t the type that allowed himself to be weak. You heard what happened in the Fortress of Meropide. You saw the panic in his eyes during that tragedy at Poisson. No matter what happened, he kept shouldering everything. He refused to ask for help. And whenever he came back to the House, there was that smile on his face. There was that light air he did his best to exude. 

You weren’t the type to take initiative. Even when you saw people breaking their backs, there was never anything you could do. You would rather avert your eyes than force your way through to help. You were weak like that. Pathetic. The last thing you wanted was to be yelled at. However, during the times when things became too hard, you were there to help people and steer them away from Lyney’s door. Hopefully during those moments of quiet, he could let himself be weak.

While he was the center of the House of the Hearth, you were nobody important. While he stood out, you remained in the shadows. But sometimes, during those rare moments of quiet that he would pass you by, he’d break out in a small smile, one meant only for you. 

“Thank you.”

[literaryvein-reblogs]

let me just say that your blogs are a lifesaver. i appreciate every single post you make, and it's helped me so much in how to guide my writing, expanding my vocabulary, and double-checking everything makes sense. thank you.

This is so lovely to know <3 Thank you for taking the time to tell me. I learn a lot from these references as well!

[devilart2199-aibi]

One of these days I gotta run through my inbox and clean it out. I really have messages from when I first appeared in the MCYT space (T_T)

[awakenthebeing]

If you’re up for it, how about doodling Keppino, Piepoe, & his family hanging out in a field of dandelions?

This idea was so kind to me that I needed to doodle it!!!

Though when they all returned I'm sure they were covered in small bug bites, pollen, grass and smelled of dirt, and had to deal with stuffy noses and headaches. ^^

[skeletoninthemelonland]

spark - xiao

[random writing event] | requested by anonymous

“Do you want to try it?” You asked with a smile. “A day like this is a cause for celebration, don’t you think?”

He kept quiet as his gaze trailed to the thin stick within your hand. Though he never used one before, they weren’t unfamiliar to him. In times past, the more studious of the adepti found interest in those Inazuman delights. The lights would often draw his eyes from across a crowd, but he never bothered to investigate up close. While bright and beautiful, they died quickly as transient things often did.

“I’m alright. There’s no need to waste such human trivialities on me.”

As usual, his refusal didn’t color your expression with hurt. Instead, you shrugged and turned your attention back to the Mingxiao Lanterns floating in the sky.

“It wouldn’t be a waste to me. Not for you.”

He held back his urge to sigh. There you went again saying such things. Though you were assigned to his care, you didn’t need to visit him so often. You didn’t need to shower him with gifts. You didn’t need to stay by his side. He knew he wasn’t easy to be around. He knew he often made people feel nervous. But you didn’t mind. You weren’t scared away.

In the back of his mind, he wondered why Rex Lapis gave you to him. Xiao had been a loyal servant for years. Never once had he failed his duty. So he didn’t understand. What was he supposed to do with you? What was the purpose of keeping you by his side?

He broke away from his thoughts when a soft humming filled the air. Turning his attention to you, there you stood by the torchlight with that stick from earlier in hand. After lighting the tip, you held your arm out as the stick began to erupt in a burst of lights and stars. You laughed, waving it around, enjoying the streaks it made across the evening sky.

The sight was captivating.

But just as quickly as it began, it soon came to an end. With a sigh, you placed the sparkler to the side. Almost as if reading his mind, you turned to him with a bashful smile.

“They don’t last long, but they are beautiful, aren’t they? It may be a bit frivolous, but what’s the point in being alive if we don’t allow ourselves to enjoy it?”

Perhaps it was due to it being Lantern Rite that he suddenly found himself caught in a bout of honesty.

“I’m… not sure I understand.”

It was the most truthful answer he could give. And how shocking it was you did not judge him for it. Instead, you walked over to the box of sparklers and picked out a stick. With a smile, you then held it out to him.

“Why not try?”
