——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

When Joshua thought of the person he was, it was because of you. You were the one who helped him pick out clothes so he found his style, you were the one who boosted his confidence he he doubted himself and pushed him to try new things, and you were the one who helped him made bad decisions sometimes in the hopes of making long-lasting memories. You were his person.

It was written by the universe that the two of you would be best friends. With your mothers being so close, there is no denying that you two will always have an important place in each other's lives.

Ever since you were younger, you two didn't go somewhere without the other. You attended the same schools, even the same college. Sure, college led you two to different friend groups, different activities, and different majors. But you always made time for each other even when life got busy. You two would study constantly and promised to have one meal together once a week. And you two never broke that promise.

Anyone who witnessed your friendship always commented there was something more. Joshua saw it too. He easily fell for you. How couldn't he? You accepted every version of himself and were the person who brought him an immense source of comfort. He couldn't imagine life without you.

Unfortunately, he had to imagine what it would be like to be with you.

"Do you think he's worth it?" You sighed.

The two of you were on FaceTime. It was a Tuesday night. While Joshua was at home, waiting for his food delivery, you were busy getting ready for a date.

Part of the reason why Joshua had to imagine what life would be like if you two were together is because you were seeing someone. For the past few months, you've been dating this guy named Ben. Now, Joshua didn't think much of Ben at first. He didn't seem like your type, so he thought he would come and go.

And he has to some extent. Ben and you had this awful habit of breaking up and getting back together. While it pained Joshua to see you with someone else, he loved the moments you confided him about your dating woes. He took mental notes of dos and donts for when you two (hopefully) get together. Ben was striking out left and right, mainly due to his poor communication. What Joshua didn't understand was why you always found yourself going back to him.

"Y/n, I don't know. You guys break up so much, I've lost count," he laughed. "It's only been 3 times," you groaned. "3 times what? This week?" "But he said he's changed this time. I mean, he even sent flowers to my apartment after our argument two nights again. That's got to mean something, right?" Joshua wanted to roll his eyes so much at your rationale. He adored you with every fiber in his being, and he didn't want to come across as dismissive, but he felt frustrated both because of you and for you. Ben was not worth it in his eyes. Nobody is worth it for you except for him. But he was your best friend. That was his role. "Maybe, angel. But there's only so much flowers can do to make up for how he treats you sometimes." Your smile had flattened by Joshua's words. And it pained him. He never wanted to be a source of sadness in your life. I guess that's why Joshua often pushed his feelings for you aside. He didn't want to be selfish and confess because that might cause a bigger mess. He loved you. He has since he was 8 years old. If you only saw him as a best friend, he would proudly take that role.

In a perfect world, you would confess to Joshua your feelings. He was ready to embrace those feelings head-on because he knew how he felt about you. What kept him back was not knowing how you felt towards him. You've always been so prominent in each other's lives. He didn't want to imagine a world without you. He was terrified that if he did ever confess, it would only push you away.

Joshua had found himself as the leading man in a tragic love story. "Just promise me something?" He requested. "Whatever you decide, follow your heart."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You had to hang up the phone call in order to get ready for your date. Joshua sighed once you face vanished from his phone. He set the phone on the coffee table before driving his fingers through his hair.

How could this happen? You were supposed to be with him, not with some random guy you met who knows where? Not with someone who doesn't see your value.

The whole situation frustrated him beyond belief. On paper, you guys were a perfect match. You two knew each other like the back of your hand. Even when you did have a disagreement, you guys would not allow it to blow up. You spoke to each other with respect, even if you were both angry because you cared about each other. In some ways, you could say you loved each other. Joshua definitely was in love with you.

He has received relentless teasing from his friends about his lack of making a move on you. His friends thought even pushing might cause him to crack. And it almost did. Yet, he was still afraid of losing you and now he might actually be.

You always saw him as a friend, or at least that's what Joshua believed. You two were best friends, nothing more and nothing less. This wasn't some love story where the childhood best friends fall for each other, no matter how many times he prayed it would happen. This was his reality. If he had to let you go to keep you in his life, he would. And he would be there to pick up the pieces each time.

Suddenly, a buzz brought Joshua out of his mind and back to the present moment. He sat up a little straighter, looking towards the door of his apartment. Did he hear that correctly? He glanced towards the clock on the wall. 8:16pm.

Ding dong. Who could that be?

Joshua pushed himself off of the couch before shuffling towards the door. It was just a short walk towards the front of the apartment. He slowly unlocked the top lock and twisted the doorknob to unlock his front door.

There you were.

"Y/n?! What happened?" "Why didn't you fight for me?"

Your voice was calm, yet your body language screamed rage. You had your hair pulled back in a clip, exposing your bare face to the world. You looked divine, but Joshua didn't have time to compliment you. He noticed how your eyebrows were slightly scrunched up while you stared into him. He thought your gaze was going to burn a hole right through them. You were wearing a zip-up hoodie and sweatpants.

"Answer me, Joshua."

Oh no, I'm in deep shit. He was at a loss for words as he stared at you. His mind racking through all the interactions you had. Did he say something over FaceTime? Did he forget to say something? Did you ask him to do something but he forgot? He was drawing a blank.

"Do you like me yes or no, Joshua? Because everyone is saying you do besides you."

His eyes grew wide at that statement. Who spilled? "Y/n, listen-" "No, Joshua, you listen. How dare you let me go on dates with people who treat me poorly. You're my best friend! We're supposed to tell each other everything." That part you whispered. "How could you not tell me?"

"What a damn minute," Joshua finally said. He had a raised eyebrow before opening the door all the way. He stepped aside to let you in, motioning for you to follow him. "I am not going to argue with you outside of my apartment. Get in." You sighed and nodded, slowly stepping in. Obviously something happened in between from the moment you guys to now. Who did you speak to? Who told you his secret? Why were you angry?

Once you were fully into his apartment, Joshua closed the door. You immediately found a spot on his couch, right beside where he was previously sitting. Your hands were locked in front of you, your one leg bouncing. Your breathing was starting to slow down a bit but you gaze was still locked on him. While not as intense, you still had your eyes trained on him.

"Can I get you a water or something before we continue this conversation?" He asked gently.

"There you go again!" You groaned. Your head leaned until it hit the pillow behind you. Your gaze is now trained on the ceiling above you two. He was surprised, completely speechless as he thought he was doing the right thing. "I'm so sick of you being nice to me."

Joshua raised an eyebrow before shuffling over to you. He took a seat on the couch beside you but kept enough distance. He wasn't sure how to process all that was transpiring, but he needed to understand where you were coming from. And apparently have some explaining to you.

"Y/n, sweet girl, you need to tell me what's going on." "You is what is going on," you confessed.

Slowly, you sat up until you were at eye level with him once again. The room was tense. He was nervous, afraid that what you had been told was going to bring his worst fear to reality - that he might lose you. "Joshua, you've set too high of a standard for me. You're kind without asking for anything in return. You treat me like a fucking princess when I'm only your best friend. I'm angry that we aren't together but you treat me better than any guy I've been with."

Was this actually happening? Were you confessing to him? "Y/n, do you like me?" 'I have liked you since I knew what it meant to have a crush on someone," you admitted. "But."

Not the cursed 'but.' "We're best friends. I didn't eat to be presumptuous and think you like me when we've been friends for so long. But then Seungkwan told me that you had feelings for me yesterday. I didn't think it was true especially not when you pushed me to go out with someone else tonight."

Fuck. "Y/n, look, we are best friends," Joshua began. You looked at him as if you just stabbed him in the heart. "But, I fell in love with my best friend."

Very gently, he took both of your hands in his. You stared up at him with a facial expression he couldn't recognize. This was new for both of you. You were venturing into uncharted territory for the two of you. His thumbs caressed over your knuckles which both soothed your nerves but caused your heart to pound faster. "This was not the way I planned on telling you," he confessed. "I actually wanted to tell you once you were single again because I didn't want to stand in the way of being happy." This time, you reached out to him. Keeping one hand in his, your other hand reached over to run your fingers through his hair, pushing the strands back to expose his face more. You seemed to relax under your touch which made you smile for the first time that evening. "Josh, I'm my happiest when I'm with you. Have I not made that clear in all the years we've known each other?" "Y/n, you know I have too much respect for you and too much invested in this friendship to just assume someone like you could ever be into me." You squeezed his hand gently, unable to stifle the giggle leaving your lips. You moved closer to him, our lips almost right under his. "This is so silly. What are we doing? Why are we keeping ourselves from being our happiest versions of ourselves?" He smirked at your question. With his free hand, he cupped your cheek gently. His thumb caressed over your cheek affectionately as he gazed into your eyes. He always has been mesmerized by the fact that your eyes captured any light in the room. They sparkled like two disco balls. "Let's change that," he murmured.

Time stopped. He leaned in so his lips grazed against yours as if he was testing the waters. He wanted to make sure you were comfortable with what was about to happen, as there was no turning back. When you didn't pull away, he got the green light he's been chasing after. His lips fully pressed against yours.

Your head gently tilted up, leaning to the side so your lips fit against him like two missing puzzle pieces. It felt like tiny sparks were going off against your lips. It was a feeling the two of you would soon be addicted to. And it felt so comfortable, so natural. His lips slowly chased after yours for a moment.

Even though he felt the urge to continue kissing you, to never let this moment pass, he did pull back. His forehead found yours, revealing the wide grin the two of you wore. He couldn't help but chuckle before pecking your lips once more. Joshua was just over the moon. He was eager for whatever may be next for the two of you, especially now that there were no limitations. You were his best friend, but now the girl who knew how he felt.

"I kept my promise you know," you spoke softly.

Joshua raised an eyebrow but kept a warm smile. Now what were you talking about? "You had me promise to follow my heart. And I did. You've been my heart, my love all this time."

[sirenscriptures]

hey! we need to talk.

well hello again!! i hope you’re all doing well. i feel like it’s been a minute since i’ve actually spoken to anyone on here.

as some of you may or may not have noticed, i’ve been pretty absent on this blog lately. at least, more than i usually am. i haven’t posted any writing in well over a month which is a little out of character for me. i’ve had quite a few writing blogs on here and i can’t really recall a time where it’s been that long without me posting at least a drabble.

in my time away from this app and from fic writing in general, i’ve realized a couple things changing about myself + my attitude towards this place in general.

honestly, i’ve come to the conclusion that i don’t really get the same satisfaction from writing on here as i used to. it could be due to the lack of feedback from the general public on here, or really just me admitting that i don’t want to write for pre-existing characters/storylines forever. let’s settle it as a mixture of both!

and don’t get me wrong, i still enjoy fanfiction writing. i adore the community here and the people i’ve had the privilege to meet even through the littlest moments. it’s made me not only a better creative, but also just better in general.

i’ve just been doing this kind of thing for so long (really since i was in 1st grade mapping out my first warrior cats fanmade storyline and oc), and i think between that, and all of these more mature/explicit writing blogs i’ve had in the past 4-5 years, maybe i’ve just grown tired of ALWAYS resorting to fanfiction.

i’ve always wanted to create something that is truly mine, and i feel like i’ve been sort of “limiting” myself this whole time in a weird way. a part of me knows it isn’t true, since this has been pretty expansive for my creativity. and it’s an art form that, in my opinion, doesn’t get anywhere near enough credit for all of the thought that goes into it. i mean, you have to be pretty damn creative to be able to write multiple descriptions of sexual penetration in the same oneshot that actually sound good, and don’t sound like they were ripped straight out of booktok. just saying! (that was a joke please don’t kill me)

anyways, this is getting to be way too long of a post for something so unimportant LMAO.

to get to the point, i’m not going to be active on this blog much longer. i’m probably going to post my final works in these next few months (possibly a few fics for my feeble attempt at a kinktober, and maybe a few for my bday month in december).

and just to clarify, this is in no way me saying that i’m leaving tumblr for good after those few months are up. this is also not me saying i’m quitting “fanmade” creative works forever. i still love writing a good fic and making fan art from time to time!

in the hopefully better part of this news, i have been planning out my art account for when i feel this blog has run its course and i’ve made everything i need to make. i probably won’t announce it publicly, but for those who want it when that time comes, i will definitely make sure you get the url. as usual, mooties get first pickings when that time comes <3

i don’t imagine this will disappoint many people since i’m not really “leaving” but who knows. i’m not expecting many people to even read this far or even notice if i’m here or not lol. i just didn’t want to deactivate out of the blue since that wouldn’t make sense for me to do.

even though i’ll still be on this blog for a few more months, i want to thank you all for giving me a space to grow and express myself. not just as a creative, but as a person too. this sounds really stupid and corny but i mean it. sure, i’ve never made record numbers on here, i’m not the most popular, but i can say without a doubt i have a wonderful group of people around me on here. even if we never meet in person, or if we never interact again outside of this blog, all of you on here will always be somewhere in my memory and i will always be so grateful for you since you made me feel like i was good enough to be seen. even if it was for my shitty smut fics. <3

i love and appreciate every single one of you. let’s have a great last few months on here, ok?

Hello everyone!! Today I grow a year older :3 (and I hate it lmao) FEEL FREE TO REPLY BIRTHDAY WISHES IF YOU WANT :3

So, over the time I've come back here, I've become pretty confident and proud of my once hidden passion about sick characters, sickfics and sick comfort/whump... 🌡️

And you all have been so supportive and sweet despite my weirdness so I thank you for that. You helped me feel more confident in my otherwise weird fixation <3 So, for my birthday I thought I'd try and make up a little drawing challenge for anyone who wants to give it a try... There are soo many talented artists on this site (and in this fandom)

So... It's your turn to target your faves now. You will see how fun it is and hopefully understand why I love doing it so much. 😈🌡️

(plus it's my birthday and I require some sustenance LMAO JKJK)

But yeah anyone can join in. This is just for fun though! You don't have to if you don't want to! I think its okay to ask for some food on my birthday though...right?? X'D So if you wanna do sth for my birthday...then... 👉👈 💦

CHALLENGE BELOW~

DRAW YOUR FAVE ON A SICK DAY CHALLENGE🌡️😷🥵🤧

~~~~

(Mmmmkay, I am lying to myself when I say this isn't mostly aimed at the RainCode community... X'D Can't help myself. But anyone can join regardless of the fandom!!)

So here's the challenge and the rules!! (featuring my two main lil targets ofc :3)

Regardless of who it is, put your fave through some sickness hell >:3c I'd love to see it! Make em' as miserable as you want!

destroy them 😈 jkjk XD

If you're in the RainCode community you can target anyone, but as you know, my main targets are Yuma and Makoto. If they're also your faves and who you decide to use, that will make me extra happy!

Some tips for anyone new to drawing a sick day scenario art. A few things that make it look convincing are the following:

Pajamas or Loungewear

Messy Bed Hair

Fever flushed face w sweat or at least a red nose

Tired Eye bags

Shivery body

Ice Pack or a Compress on the head

Thermometer sticking from their mouth

LOTS OF BLANKETS

Tissues or medicine surrounding them

Tea or Soup (or both)

Those are just to name some from the top of my head. If you'd like some pointers on how to make a character look ill, check out my Fever Coloring Guide. This is for digital artists but traditional artists can try it too!

You can add injury or angst to the scene but I'd like illness to be the main focus of it.

The scene can be anything you want to, it can be fluffy and wholesome (with a caretaker) it can be angsty, or it can be silly. Its all up to you! Do it for the sake of fluff! Caretaking scenes are the best for any kind of relationship >w<

Either way, have fun with it!! I look forward to see what people make if they decide to give it a try! It doesn't even have to be a full on picture! Doodles and sketches are fine too! Just show me something >w<

(feel free to tag me and say happy b-day and mention my challenge, I am proud to be known for this and would love for many to participate :3) I wanna see you take a go at it :3 Show me your style! :D

~

~~~

(wow look at me misspelling the word writing on text when I did it fine with my own hands lol)

Now, I know not everyone can draw...

Well never fear! I accept writing as well! ✍️✍️✍️

(hi vivia lol sorry for giving you a cold, at least you have an excuse to read and do nothing now haha x3)

Sickfics are one of the biggest things I live for! Any little drabbles or full fics with more than one chapter are welcome! Again target who you want any fandom you want, but I'll def be super happy if you make a RainCode fic. And even happier if you target my faves as well, but again, anything will do! Just make a cute story about your fave being miserable and being tended to! Trust me, it's super fun!

You can add injury or angst to the scene but I'd like illness to be the main focus of it.

Feel free to post your writing here and tag me or mention my AO3!

If you need a start to your fic, look on my blog for illness prompts! Maybe it can help give you a good start or give some inspiration! (thats why I share 'em :3)

I look forward to anything you try to write!

~

That's about all!! I hope you decide to participate! ✨

Good luck, have fun, and godspeed you future whumpers! 😈

(nah jk XD)

AGAIN THIS IS FOR FUN! NO PRRSSURE IF YOU DON'T WANT TO!

Lessons from Years in the Dragon Age Fandom: How I Learned to Be Less of an Asshole.

I graduated high school in 1999. It wasn’t until my junior or senior year that we had a computer at home, and I still vividly remember skipping class to sneak into the school library and log into Yahoo! Chat rooms. Since then, I’ve been a part of countless online communities and fandoms, each shaping my experience in some way.

One community that’s had a lasting impact is the Dragon Age fandom. I’ve been involved, in one way or another, since 2010. I especially remember the lead-up to Inquisition. I was active on the BSN boards, arguing with anyone who dared to disagree with me. I participated in the drama, spoke my mind with little restraint, and fought hard to have the “winning” opinion. Looking back, I realize I was part of the problem.

Now, with years of life experience and the added perspective of parenting, my desire to argue with strangers on the internet has waned. My approach to fandom has changed—hopefully for the better. Here are a few things I’ve learned along the way:

1. Just because I believe it, doesn’t make it true.

Passionate opinions are fine, but they don’t equal fact. Fandoms thrive on different interpretations, and that’s okay.

2. EA, BioWare, and the Dragon Age team don’t owe me anything.

Not closure, not specific storylines—nothing. They’re making their game, not mine.

3. Developers are real people who deserve respect.

Behind every game is a team of people working hard. It’s easy to forget that in the heat of an online debate.

4. The developers want us to love Veilguard just as much as we do.

Nobody sets out to make a bad game. The team is putting their all into it, and they don’t want to disappoint us.

5. The block button is your friend.

It took me way too long to embrace this. If someone’s being toxic, just block them. There’s no need to engage. Block. Rinse. Repeat.

6. Nobody, except for you, cares about your Warden.

Your personal Dragon Age experience is just that—personal. You don’t need to argue with others about how their playthroughs should go.

7. Follow creators from diverse backgrounds.

Seek out voices from people of color, people with disabilities, and the LGBTQIA+ community. You’ll learn more, and the fandom will be richer for it.

8. Sending threats makes you part of the problem.

If you’re sending threats to developers, content creators, or anyone else because of a storyline or character you didn’t like, you’re hurting the very thing you claim to love.

9. Harassing marginalized groups is never okay.

This should go without saying, but if you’re harassing anyone—whether they’re a person of color, LGBTQIA+, or anyone else—you’re not just part of the problem, you are the problem.

10. Self-awareness is key.

Over the years, I’ve learned that sometimes I am the problem. Taking a step back and reflecting on my own behavior in fandom spaces has helped me grow, and it’s something I think everyone could benefit from. Recognizing when to listen and when to step back is a crucial part of being a positive member of any community.

Over the years, I’ve come to understand that fandom is about celebrating what we love—not tearing each other, or the creators, down. These lessons didn’t come overnight, but they’ve made me a better community member. And one day, I hope they’ll make me an even better community manager. I’ve long had a goal of working as a community manager for a fandom that I’m passionate about, helping to foster positive, inclusive spaces where people can share their love for the stories and worlds that bring us together.

Until then, I’ll keep learning, keep engaging, and most importantly—keep blocking, and stay positive! Only 21 days left!!

xoxox,

Jess

Some future Percy Jackson headcanons :D

- He never grows facial hair. Yes this is partially because I don't like drawing facial hair but also I feel like Percy would just take one look at the mirror, realise that he looks like a splitting image of his dad and then shave the whole thing off

- Percy is the malewife trophy husband in this relationship. Yes I HC him with a job (I will get to that later) but it's about the vibes

Like he literally says this in Greek heroes!

He is the trophy husband to Annabeth's successful girlboss wife and he knows it! He does the cooking and cleaning!! (His mother is THE Sally Jackson so you better bet he cooks dam well too)

And I refuse to believe that he and Sally aren't like super tidy people after living with Gabe. Like ADHD disorganization real and true just like me fr but Percy would not let there be trash or bad smells /anywhere/

- Related to the above Percy does not drink

- Percy took a GAP year actually

- Like yes he does actually try and jump back into school like he does in ToA because he is tired of godly bullshit and craves normalcy. But my guy. That is a semester of content you missed along with current school AND you're still prepping for college AND you're still recovering from the war. Something something he does this as a distraction from everything but also because he genuinely wants to have normalcy but after burning out somewhere through the year he is convinced to take a damn break!!!!

- I think the road trip at the end of ToA can still happen but like, just them relaxing and exploring during the GAP year (also redesigning Olympus is Annabeth's BABY man she's putting that over school + she has worse school records than Percy because she's been year round at camp since she was 7 I don't think school convention matters that much to her actually)

- Anyway they take a well deserved break!! (And get therapy hopefully) So by the time they get to college they are in a much better place mentally <3

- With the accomodations from NRU for his learning disabilities Percy actually ends up doing really well and gets better grades than Annabeth! I am a believer of "Percy is smart it's just that he wasn't properly accommodated and also lacked interest in certain subjects" and "Annabeth is naturally gifted and never learnt to study because she coasts through school and wings her tests" (they're both just like me fr)

- Percy ends up picking Marine Biology as a major because he's not actually sure what he wants to study (he's never gotten the chance to think about what he wanted for his future because of the great prophecy) and thinks that "hey even if it's cliche it'll be easier for me"

Cuz like I understand the excitement of finally going to a school that accomodates you and having hope that you'll get an actual chance to succeed. But also school is still hard and Percy probably just wants to get through it too sjsjsjdj. So he doesn't think too hard on it and goes with the perceived most obvious and easiest option. (Also an option he's most likely to show interest in)

Okay! Rubs hands. From here I start talking about my marine rehabilitation center Percy hcs :) (this hc is heavily inspired by this post! I really looked at it a few years ago and never stopped thinking about it lmao)

- Something something Percy is canonically the kid who used to sneak out at night to help free sea creatures in fishing nets and is best friends with Grover "lord of the wild" Underwood and Rachel "activist" Dare. That boy is an environmentalist.

- He ends up finding genuine passion in ocean conservation and gets a degree in environmental conservation along with marine biology

- A while after graduating, he sets up a marine rehabilitation/conservation center of sorts

- Annabeth, who probably makes it big as an architect pretty soon (at least in the half-blood community) designed the building, Rachel helps to fund the whole thing. Grover, who goes around doing conservation work and setting up sanctuaries to help preserve the wild helps a ton with setting up too

- The center helps out both mythical and regular sea creatures. It also acts as a demigod safe house (something something Hazel + the Hecate kids help to set up wards to keep monsters out and also to shroud the mythical aspects of the place with the Mist)

- I dunno if the staff will be only consisting of people in the know or if there are mortals too but I feel like even though the wards at the center aren't as strong as those at the camps, the prospect of a safe working environment would be pretty enticing to demigods so a bunch of them end up interning there for a bit

- speaking of safe environment I feel like while Percabeth study in New Rome they wouldn't live there. Instead Annabeth ends up building something similar to it at CHB. But rather than a whole city, it's more of just apartments close to camp with various safe houses all over the country because I feel like they'd end up vibing in the mortal world more. (Much like this post!)

- The center holds educational field trips to encourage more people to care about the oceans. (I've been on a field trip to a marine rehabilitation center before, I think it'd be something like that but with a bigger, more advanced facility)

- I actually like the hc of Percy becoming an educator to help kids like him and also go full circle with the whole "why would anyone want to be a teacher for all time" thing with Chiron in TLT. But rather than become a teacher he ends up being an educator and advocator for environmental conservation. Might be invited to be a guest speaker at schools from time to time.

- Oh also he's still a teacher in that Percy teaches swordfighting and canoeing at camp send tweet

You Reap What You Sow - Chapter 3

Genshin Impact SAGAU x Iron Harvest 1920+

Safe At Last

You managed to survive another nation’s encounters. First Mondstadt, and then Liyue. Hopefully Inazuma won’t be bad.

You can’t exactly make a raft, so your best bet is to steal a rowboat from Liyue Harbor. Before that though, you’d have to wait for night. You hid in a forest near Liyue, but you got caught by a hilichurl patrolling.

To your surprise, the hilichurl didn’t attack. If beckoned you to follow it, and you did, because screw your life at this point. While accompanying it, you noticed that it also gathered other hilichurls, slimes, a select few rifthounds, and even a Geo Hypostasis, which you simply stared in awe at.

Eventually, you and the group returned to the Hilichurl camp, where you noticed two other notable figures. An Abyss Mage...

...And a very familiar blond-haired woman wearing a red-trimmed jacket, a Siberian Tiger accompanying her.

“Hello there, создатель.“

All you could do was open your mouth in shock, unsure of what to say.

“Y-You- er- uh... you’re Olga Romanova, c-correct?“

“Correct, your grace.“ She responded.

“But- but- ...how...?“ You just said, flabbergasted as Olga went on to get you some clean clothing.

“I’ll explain.“

According to the ancient scrolls you’ve read in the past one-and-a-half hours or so, apparently you were the divine creator of Teyvat. However, you were also the creator of Europe as well. You assumed that this was because you had downloaded the two games, technically making you their creator. You also found out this takes place after the events of the campaigns.

When you were chased out of Teyvat, it responded to your fear. Certain individuals from Europe were thrown into the continent with a portal being established between the two worlds.

Olga read a list of notable people who were sent in, and you noticed some very recognizable names.

Anna Kos, Lech Kos, Michal Sikorsky, Olga Romanova/Morozova, Victor Popov (which you know as Janek Kos), Lev Alekseevich Zubov, Gunter von Duisburg, Frida Ruete, Kaiser Wilhelm III, Prince Wilhelm, Sita al-Hadid, William Mason, Admiral Mason, Tsar Nicholas II, and Randolph Wells.

Seems like some people had gotten revived to Teyvat.

You also found out you had several divine powers. Firstly, you could channel abilities into weapons. You then mentioned that you shot your anti-mech cannon at Zhongli’s boulder, breaking it into pieces.

“That is the gunner power of yours. You can channel your powers into the anti-mech cannon, allowing for a burst of twelve power shots against your adversaries.“

Secondly, you could apparently use divine communication to sense those loyal to you, no matter how far. However, you can only maintain this communication for a limited amount of time, and it would grow stronger the more you resonate with Teyvat and Europe.

After figuring everything else, Olga presented you with a gift from Saxony.

The two of you walked slightly away from the camp to walk to a large object covered by a tarp. The group of monsters followed you as well.

“Go ahead and unveil it.“ Olga said to you, a warm smile on her face. “Saxony’s greatest engineers made it just for you.“

You removed the tarp, and inside was a PKP 17 Eisenhans exoskeleton.

It bore everything from its mortar backpack to its battering ram. However, its mortar tubes, helmet, and pauldrons were gold. The body frame was a powerfully dark gray. The boots were jet black, and the lenses were a crystal blue.

“Do you want to try it on?“ Olga asked you.

“...Sure.“ You hesitantly responded back.

“Alright. Let me help you.“

Olga helped you as she opened up the chest cavity of the exoskeleton (I think that’s how you enter the suit, I don’t know) as you entered the bulky suit, moving around its arms which are assisted by pistons and joints. You closed the suit shut and moved around with it.

“How do you feel, your grace?“

“...I feel... new. Powerful. Like I can take on all of Teyvat and survive.“

The LOONA situation

Part 3 - It gets so much worse

A few hours ago, Blockberry Creative submitted the following statement:

Essentially, what they themselves are saying is that they intend to have the members that got out of their contracts blacklisted from the industry. I don't think I need to explain any further for you to get what's going on here. Blockberry have essentially stopped to the level of a toddler breaking their toys so no-one can take them away. In fact, the level is below even that because we're talking about people's livelihoods, their dreams. These girls have spent an untold number of years training in various ways before they even debuted and up to 6 years as part of LOONA after. The group would not exist if it weren't for Heejin, it wouldn't have found its appeal if it weren't for OEC, and it wouldn't have been as popular if it weren't for Chuu but now BBC are ready to forget about all of that because the girls stopped putting up with their shit.

This isn't just shady business dealings anymore, this is straight up evil. They want to take away what these girls have worked for over years and they don't care if they succeed. After all, if they don't, they'll still use it to put fear into the members who are stuck in that godforsaken company.

Still, there is hope. The evidence made public so far is surely just the tip of the iceberg if BBC are acting this recklessly. The legal case against them keeps growing and we, as a community, can help with that by signing LOONA Union's petition, linked below (just hit the "view on Twitter" button. What will not help is harassing the various Blockberry Creative social media accounts. The underpaid students running them are the ones who will receive the hate and they're not the ones responsible for what's going on. They're just trying to make a living in this late-stage capitalist nightmare world.

GWSN's recent legal victory is proof that sometimes justice really does prevail in the end. Hopefully, we will see this again with LOONA. Until then, keep up the boycott and stay strong. If orbits are strong, maybe we can pass on a bit of that strength to the members because they will need all they can get.

Went to a kink event last week and ended up meeting a cute couple. Turned out they were there for the tea and know nothing about kink! Introduced them to friends, one of which was a DM for the night. Friendly conversation ensues. They just moved here, they've been trying to make friends. We exchanged socials.

On the way home I'm scrolling through and say to my husband, "oh, they're totally monogamous. It sounded like they might be fairly vanilla too." Which isn't a problem, we can always use more friends. Not every event we go to is spicy.

Week later on Saturday night they message asking if we have plans. So we invite them to our usual tea place. On the fly I also in the poly chat we'd be there for the night. Open invite, see who shows up.

Well, the guy I've been casually dating for 3 years is in town, he showed up. A casual play partner showed up. The girl I dated a few years ago showed up. Not a big deal, we all hang out at the weekly poly meet up. But I can't say I've been in a situation where it's almost exclusively all people I've slept with. I wasn't entirely sure how the dynamic would play out.

Suddenly I realized I just kissed hello to two men, who aren't my husband, in front of this monogamous couple we were recently acquainted with! I'm not the most outgoing person in the planet, I have social anxiety. Which also means I tend to be hyper vigilant about making good impressions and wanting everyone around me to feel comfortable and be happy. Not that that's something I have much control over.

All went well, over the hours conversation flowed and eventually the ice was broken about us being polyamorous. They already knew we were kinky. After everyone left but the four of us we discovered the couple actually are interested in kink and trying to figure out how to get started.

While insisting on exclusivity in their relationship discussion about old relationship traumas came up. Fears, jealousy, a need for security. I'd like to think my husband and I were able to shine a light on the fact that poly isn't the absence of those things but often a way to embrace and work through them.

I just have to say how grateful I am for my community. It wouldn't have been easy to navigate this stuff without people to offer their experiences or guidance. That when meeting new baby Kinksters we are able to direct them to safe places to meet people, and start their journey. We know couples who hold intimacy events, and other classes. We know places that cater to kink, some involving sex some just for play. While we can answer questions and share our experiences we can also share resources and introduce them to more people.

We messaged a bit the following day and I sent them some links to events. I'll also say it's exciting to hopefully see how things may evolve. I love watching newbies grow, discover their interests, and gain confidence. I hope they have positive experiences moving forward and happy to have made new friends.

1. What is the main lesson of your story (e.g. kindness, diversity, anti-war), and why did you choose it?

To be compassionate of one another. We're all different for so many reasons but we're more alike than you might think and at the end of the day we're all people doing our best and trying to get by. It's important to remember that and to know that we're all dealing with our own things along the way.

I chose it because it truly saddens me how much we as people hold each other back due to in-fighting and othering one another. I wanted a way to examine that and hopefully communicate to anyone reading AASOAF how harmful something like that is. It's no coincidence that the art and humanities have all but come to a standstill in Oepus and that's just part of it...

In short, be kind to your fellow man, dammit.

2. What did you use as inspiration for your worldbuilding (like real-life cultures, animals, famous media, websites, etc.)?

Lizards for sure haha. But a lot of my inspiration comes from nature, human history, music, movies, and foley design! Also, I have an intense curiosity about all sorts of different things so Google deep dives are very inspiring!

3. What is your MC trying to achieve, and what are you, the writer, trying to achieve with them? Do you want to inspire others, teach forgiveness, help readers grow as a person?

My MCs are trying to find their places in the world. They all kind of get confronted with some pretty harsh truths about their respective situations and are kind of forced to decide if they're going to keep going down their current path or if they are going to do something to change it.

As far as what I'm trying to achieve, I think I really want to drive the point that familiar =/= safe or "good". It can, but not always. I also really want to demonstrate that no matter who you are or where you come from, introspection, questioning the world around you, and deriving meaning to 'life and purpose', are something we should all engage in. I sincerely hope that it gives my readers the courage to do those things for themselves and grow into the versions of themselves I know they can be!

4. How many chapters is your story going to have?

As many as it takes.

5. Is it fanfiction or original content? Where do you plan to post it?

Original! AASOAF 3 will join AASOAF 1 & 2 on Wattpad when it's all finished! I have considered moving platforms recently but I'm not sure where yet.

6. When and why did you start writing?

My writing journey kind of comes in two parts. I started writing back when I was a teenager but only did it for about a year. I can't really remember why I stopped and I definitely don't have anything from that time, mostly because I didn't think to save it. I really wish I had though.

After that, I didn't get back into writing until late 2019 at the encouragement of my therapist that I journal my feelings. So I did that, but then somewhere along the way I remembered how much I liked stories and I started writing for fun!

7. Do you have any words of engagement for fellow writers of Writeblr? What other writers of Tumblr do you follow?

Just write, bro. Seriously. I think people get bogged down in a deluge of advice, technique, the "right" way to do things, etc, etc that they quite literally lose the plot. They forget why they started writing in the first place or build it up to be this thing they're afraid to engage with or even forget that under all of that they are just trying to tell a story. SO TELL IT. Stop putting up imaginary walls for yourself dude. WRITE. THE. DAMN. THING. You're not going to nail it on the first try, THAT'S FINE (and kind of the point, hello editing!) and you will get better over time. It's like jumping into a swimming pool and getting upset when you discover that you're not an Olympic level swimmer. Give yourself some grace and write the damn thing.

As far as other writers, I follow so many lovely peeps that this post would be longer than a CVS receipt if I listed them all LOL so instead, have some of my darling moots who have made being on this little corner of Tumblr that much sweeter 💙

Heya Baba! <3 I remember you mentioned Lark and Grant recently and I would love to know more!! So Lark/Grant for the ship bingo :)

😊🌸 Hiya Countless!!! Eheh y'know, I have this awful habit of putting off answering your asks specifically because I want to be especially thorough with them... And consequently not getting to answering them 😅😓. Like, I HAVE NOT forgotten about the music one LOL one day I will answer it I fucking swear!!!

Anyways, oooh, well rad of you to express interest in this one! I'll try my best!

(eheh also fair warning I'm a tad drunk eheheh but hopefully this will still be reasonably comprehensible? Just to say that I might be a bit extra all over the place but I'm trying my best ahaha. Also cheers lol 🍻💜)

(My second bingo I think? I'm too lazy to mark them lol)

Okay so the thing is, in my head I know exactly how I want this ship to play out and what it means to me... But putting that into words? Quite difficult actually!

I've been like, silently obsessing over these two for the past few months actually. I did this to myself? It was an accident?? I have this non-magical AU road trip fic for them that I've been rotating around for the longest time and have been *dying* to write, so I guess that's what a lot of my thoughts have centered around! That said, if I could explain the appeal more generally...

*Well*, as far as ships I feel strongly positive about go, this one is... Definitely one of the most unapologetically toxic ones tbh? Not as the end game for them! Rather, usually when these two play out in my head it sorta starts as two people with a lot of conflict between them (perhaps cause they're so similar in a lot of ways), who ultimately come to understand each other very well and grow as a result. Does that make sense? I think they make each other worse, and *then* they make each other better.

So what is it about them? Well... It's a bit hard to place actually! I would say that near its core, their relationship to me is very much defined by its physicality. Which I guess I mean from a number of angles (eheh including the sexual side sure but I'll spare you that dw I'll spare you from that LOL). For one there's... Something very physical about both of their most core traumas (the pyramid, the chimera) that to me separates these two from the rest of the other kid(dad)s? Similarly, and perhaps related to this, they certainly have a relationship with physical violence that is unlike the others as well, wherein it tends to be more of a pleasure or source of catharsis rather than purely being a necessary evil. Obviously in Grant's case this takes on a particularly dark tone, but still I think Lark's violent disposition is apparent and important enough.

I'll go back to all of that shortly but as a side tangent, they both have similar (albeit not identical) habits of shutting down and pushing people away as well? There's a lot of self-loathing, a lot of not believing oneself to be worthy of love, and so on and so forth.

SOOOOOO... I think at first they could be very cold and mean with each other! (Cue that scene in The Staircase when Lark body checks Grant to push past hm like ouch ooo my feelings but also *go on*). Verbal communication only goes so far with either of them, seeing oneself in the other and projecting that self-loathing onto them in the form of hate... It's a recipe for disaster tbh.

So... They fight! Especially like, physically, they fight. And... It's great? For both of them. It's an outlet, it's cathartic, and when it's just the two of them like this they can be shameless about it! <- That last part is important, for both of them but especially for Grant I think.

>> Now playing: "A Kiss With a Fist" by Florence and the Machine >>

And I think with time they learn to be more open with one another in other ways? As I mentioned earlier, their traumas bear a lot of similarities, among other things, so I think that once they reach this point there's this level of understanding between them that they haven't really been able to find elsewhere, and in that, probably some comfort. And trust!!!

So they're not really a couple sorta deal for me even if some of the feelings present might ultimately be romantic? It's more like, they let off some steam, they kiss a bit (or a bit more than a bit), and they love each other in a way that is deep and personal but doesn't require any sort of label, cause words were never what defined them in the first place.

Does any of this make sense??? Did I mention I'm drunk???

Not that this is exactly how it needs to be play out in every iteration of them, either. I guess there's also a lot of hurt/comfort for me with these two. A lot of that has to do with my own headcanons of Lark having PTSD and related symptoms that are quite similar to what Grant goes through, and the mutual understanding that comes with that (in short). And hey, for all the cuts and bruises from their training sessions (and/or consensual roughhousing), there's just as many carefully applied bandages and ice packs afterwards eheheh.

AHA okay this was long oh my goodness. And I still don't feel like I really got what I mean across!

🤔 Honestly, if this explanation turned you *off* from the ship more than anything, that's pretty fair tbh! They're really difficult for me to put into words haha, maybe in fanfiction it would be less off-putting!

Regardless, thank you very much for the ask :3 💜

Hej hej! Lets see here... Had this on my mind a while. SO I am writing it out.

Me between 10 - 16: Keeps playing with ponies, gameboy, read comics, watch cartoons, draw, rp and walk in the forest with my dog. Animals rock! No interest in sexual contact but these animated characters in these movies and these books are kinda hot. Get bullied at school. Everyone else 10 - 16: Searching boy/girl friends. Learn makeup, clothes, how to smoke, drink, have sex, party hard. After a while get first panic attack practicing 'adulthood' to hard. -------

Me between 16 - 25: A nervous insecure mess, study up math I didn't finish and meet some cool like minded creative friends. Still enjoy drawing, reading, rp and watching cartoons. Went to my first nerd convention. Still don't like sexual contact but drawing/writing characters all in love are cool and hot. Everyone else 16 - 25: Still party hard. Move between apartments, and might have gotten married and had a one or a few kids. Start working part time, learn to drive, drink legally and travel countries. ------

Me between 25 - 32: Had my first panic attack. Tried working on 5 different places but never get full time employment due to my lack of experience, depression and work pace. Move into my first apartment. Have long art blocks, feel's like I must grow up and wasting my time with everything I love doing.The sentence of get a kid now or it be to late have intensified. Still don't like sexual contact but drawing/writing these character having sex are hilarious and hot. Everyone else 25 - 32: Have had at least 3 jobs, lived in another country and trying to get into Universities so they can get better pay or dream job. Had a divorce. And more kids. Gets hobbies. And a house. Those who waited the longest gets their first kid. Some have walked into a wall and gotten burnouts. ------

Me between 32 - 36: Goes to evening classes in art. Gym. Allowed myself to enjoy my creative outlets like drawing, reading, rp, cartoons and being weird. Have a good therapist. Tries not listening to anyone finding me lazy/dumb. Still don't like sexual contact but I am obviously attracted to certain characters in cartoons/books/comics. (everyone in books are animated in my head lol) Everyone else 32 - 36: People have calmed down. If they doing anything its about traveling, work or family. If your lucky they talk about hobbies too. Those who walked into a burnout are taking better care of themselves and realizes how hectic human society have become, hopefully.

SO Some paths are more accepted as normal in our world and low energy humans have an extra hard time. Often gets called lazy and they not trying hard enough. Sure we could try harder, but we will run into a wall quicker and our health will fail. So what if our environment/communities find ways to use our strength early on instead of pushing us into depression? Anyone with me. yah!! \o/ I'm sure I can find a way to be of use. Think I'm actually doing it by existing. ^^ Simply takes longer with work. I have to find my path myself while others rode the wave. So. A work place with less pressure, preferably comfy environment, good scheduled, learn while you do it work (apprentice) instead of high education or work experience? I want one job I like and do it my whole life thank you~ Am I reaching to high? whatever. I am already late. to everything! =w =-

[countlessrealities]

KNOWING YOUR PARTNER WELL CAN POTENTIALLY MAKE WRITING TOGETHER A LOT EASIER. REPOST.

name. Scotty

pronouns. they / them

preference of communication. Tumblr IMs or Discord (even if I’m selective with whom I hand my Discord to. We need to have talked at least a bit here before).

name of muse. I currently have 12 active muses (both canon and OCs), 3 test muses and 1 request muse on this blog. Mort of them are Rick and Morty muses (all versions of the two titular characters).

rp experience / how  long. I don’t remember for how long exactly I’ve been RPing. It has to be at least 8-10 years. I started on another site and then landed on Tumblr about 5-6 years ago.

best experience. I don’t have a specific episode that I consider the best ever, but in general the best experience for me is connecting with kin minded people and build a world of plots and interactions through of our characters. It’s always a lot of fun and very stimulating. I have a few people I’m especially grateful to in this sense and I hope I’ll have the chance to keep writing with them for as long as possible. And hopefully to meet more like them.

rp pet peeves / deal breakers. This calls for a quite the list xD No rules / muse(s) page. Drama / callout culture. DNI for specific characters. Cyber-bulling of any sort (and yes, this includes harrassing people for liking content that you consider “problematic”. If you do that sort of things, get away from my blog, grow the fuck up and get a life). Untagged posts / untagged NSFW, or too fancy tags that are hard to blacklist. Being a self-absorbed dick in general. People who ignore the starters / replies to ask you wrote for them. People who try to force their personal headcanons / views about my muses on me. People who use the “this is a hobby” excuse to be terrible to their writing partners and to not give back the effort people offer them.

fluff,  angst, or smut. Angst is one of my favourite things to write, so that’s definitely my pick. I still like a happy ending after navigating an ocean of feels, pain, trauma, broken spirits, crushed dreams and so on x’D But yeah, angst all the way. Fluff is good to balance more intense threads, so I don’t mind indulging in that too. As for smut, I’m extremely selective with it. I write it with trusted people only, and only when inserted in the context of a developed scenario / ship.

plots or memes. I’m definitely partial to plotting. I like creating long-term storylines, dynamics and arcs / verses. It’s really important for me to plot at least the general idea for first interactions especially, because it helps me getting an idea of what the other person is looking for.

long or short replies.  I’m a descriptive RPer, so I almost exclusively do multi-para and novella threads. Single para are for brief interactions / crack.

best time to write. I don’t really have a specific time. My inspiration comes and goes as it pleases, it could hit me at every hour of the day and of the night. I usually end up writing at night mostly because it’s when I have more free time.

are you like your muse. I share some traits with most of my muses, but I wouldn’t say that there’s a muse that is exactly like me. If something I’m a bit of a mix of some of them. I tend to be almost as cynic as Rick, I can be a bitch like Summer, and I struggled with bad anger issues in the past like Morty does and I tend to put up a facade / play a certain kind of persona for the world to see Like Blitzo. I’m not super easy to approach (even if it might not seem so), I have plenty of insecurities and I’m really socially awkward, traits that characterises a good number of my muses.

A Positive note!

AGHADBEENHERE'S UNNAMED BLOG: 6#

Heeey, everyone, sorry about last time, I think it was one of those late-time sad thoughts whenever you get tired and all, I don't think i plan on deleting it though, I think it's nice to keep it up there for everyone to see because it's just kinda.. You know, Humanizing.

I've seen a lotta things on the internet, and a lot of disregard for others, I think people really don't get that there is actual people behind the screen at times.

And it honestly surprises me with how much the internet has grown, it's sad that we've somehow de-evolutioned to a more chaotic state now that we can communicate with anybody anywhere in the world, and I honestly don't get it.

Maybe we're not responsible enough, maybe we're too dumb for this sort of power.

Maybe one day the entirety of the internet will go down, maybe it'll go down with this planet whenever we somehow fuck it up past redemption, hell if I know.

I'm not PRAYING for the downfall of the internet, nobody wants that, we have the entirety of human knowledge at our fingertips, just a few clicks away, and here we are totally disregarding it, I think that's kinda sad but it's just the way of life, and I shouldn't be SAD about what other people do or believe, you know?

But eh, whatever, back to the other point I was making.

I think seeing posts like that really can humanize people, sometimes we're feeling bad, we post those feelings out to get them out of our heads and it really brings to light the fact that we're not just the silly little guys behind the screen, we're actual people clicking on our keyboards to type these messages out, and I really like that, we shouldn't feel ashamed about venting on the internet, after all, there's enough space for everything and everyone here.

A part of me really wanted to clear that post and just keep going with the whole 'chill happy guy expressing thoughts' thing I had going, but I'm not even sure if I had it going to begin with, and I don't think I could put up a persona like that.

Sometimes I want to make a new account, an account where i'm all wholesome and sweet, kind to the world and spreading positivity.

But honestly I don't think I could do that, I feel too rash, too irresponsible, erratic, all those sortsa things, and those that know me, know that i could never really shape up to be a soft and kind person.

And I'm okay with that! Be who you want to be! But at times I really do feel like being a fuzzy little spot of joy on the internet at times could be great and all.. But it'd be fake, wouldn't really be me.

Maybe I'll grow softer, kinder, warmer, who the hell knows.

Life comes at you fast with moments like that, hopefully I'll get one to define me as a person.

I kinda feel like a genderless blob of black mass, I mean it's cool at times, but I can't really identify with anyone or anything, feeling more like a drifter through the fields where everyone else has taken a shape.

Here I am, a blob of black mass, forever changing.

But hey, if that's what I am, then I'm okay with it.

As always, happy to be here.

Your silly ol' pal, ag.

[the-teezone]

blog intro + owner info!

Welcome to the Teezo Touchdown Zone aka The End Zone, which I hope can essentially become a hub of all things Teezo.

[strap in. this post is a lil’ long. just a lil’ 🤏🏾]

I created this blog because as a fan of Teezo, I felt like some of his recent history was getting a little lost in the hustle and bustle of the internet, so I’m hoping that by having a bit of an archive, it can help fans as they come down the rabbit hole and catch up!

I’m going to try to capture as much as I can, and as a fan that is always learning herself, definitely feel free to submit or suggest shoots/interviews/music/etc., especially from his CVKE SUPPLY/mixtape days! I’m not as well versed in that era, so it would be great to connect with fans in that way to exchange knowledge and really just be in community with you all!

That was also another reason I created this blog— to find other fans! The Teezo tags haven’t been as abundant or updated as I think they should be, and I see a few people showing love to him here and there, but I need us to come toogeetherrrr! (>.<)

As for the blog itself, I really want this to be more than just an “updates and news” blog because I, too, need a place to fan out and rant and rave about the man. Still figuring out what that will look like, especially since we have sooo much to catch up on (it’s been a crazy few years for Teezo so at least there’ll be a steady stream of content from an archival standpoint lol).

He’s currently on tour, so if you or anyone you know is going to show, let me know! I'm not able to go to a show and would love to not only post any pics or videos you take but also live vicariously through you lmaoo.

As this blog evolves, I just want to remind y'all that I'm just finding my footing and figuring this all out as I go — kinda like Teezo is! Trial and success! I’ve never had this type of blog before, but if y’all rockin’ wit’ me, let’s rock. And let’s roll.

Here’s some quick facts about me (omg how rude, I haven’t introduced myself yet):

I’m trin! she/her! 25! Black! 

I’ve been a fan of Teezo since early 2021. My favorite song from him— it changes all the time but it’s currently Handyman!

my main blog is @universeinherafro, so if you see any interactions coming from that page, it’s just me!

I also occasionally write on here @jarfulloftears! I may have some Teezo related fic writing in the works (it’s already underway on my Wattpad) but hopefully I won't be the only one partaking as the community grows!

Anyways!

Welcome in!! And I look forward to making this the best thing it can be and connecting with other super cool [insert Teezo Touchdown fandom name].

If you want to keep up with Teezo directly, be sure to follow all his socials! <3

It’s been so long.

Hey, it’s been so long since I’ve updated this blog.

Anyway, just droppin’ by to say I’m alive. It’s more than 3 years already since the pandemic started and I thank God that I’m still breathing. The last post I had on this blog was “Out of Shape”, that was me reflecting on how I gained weight and how it doesn’t make me happy at all. I’ve moved back to my apartment November of 2020 because of work and apartment concerns. So back to living without the fam.

So what happened for the past few years?

Weight loss journey.

Church community.

New Hobby & community.

Mental health.

Work stuff.

Wardrobe update.

Loving myself.

Weight Loss Journey

I tried to loose some weight, it was quite a successful one. I started mid November of 2020 from 139 lbs I lost a couple of pounds which I’m happy since I can already wear my clothes, zip up my pants without the feeling of squeezing it in and fast forward to now, I’m trying to maintain my weight, as long as I’m within 121 - 125 lbs., I’m already good with that. I don’t do gym anymore. I just focused on my calorie intake and been in love with yoga and just adding a bit of HIIT workout at home.

Church Community

Ever since I went back to living alone, I’ve been craving for church community but for some reason it just didn’t work out for me since most of the time connect groups were done in a physical setup and since I don’t go to church physically like pre-pandemic, I’ve been preferring online services and I don’t do church related physical meetups / get together from 2020 to 2021, maybe that’s why it didn’t workout well.

New Hobby & Community

I have been immersed in this new hobby of collecting anime figures (can be playable as well). I created a social media account for that since I started receiving invites and even messages from some folks in my personal social media about “Insurance” or them “borrowing for money”. There’s even a point where some do the ‘guilt-trippin stuff’ like “you don’t have some spare money, but you can buy toys?”. It’s seriously annoying so after that I ended up not posting any stuff related to this new hobby.

On a brighter side, since I created a separate social media account for this hobby, I started meeting people with the same hobby as I do! It was fun discussing with folks anything related to this hobby with these folks and I honestly enjoy it. It took quite a while but seriously it made me forget that it’s still pandemic. 

Mental Health

Afaik, I’m currently stable but yes, I constantly talk to a shrink because I felt like there’s just no one to talk to. I don’t have really friends who I can be vulnerable with so I just settled talking to a shrink - at least it’s being kept professionally (I hope). Tho really, there are times that I had troubles with myself, some are quite triggering and some well... self pity I guess. I’d say 2021 was the worst for my mental health and fast forward to now, I’m still in the process of trying to cope up.

Work Stuff

I actually moved to a different team mid-2021 and I’m currently in between of regretting and being grateful to it but really, I don’t see myself growing for quite some time now in my career. I want a change to that, I even discussed this with the upper management but it just looks like there’s not much of projects currently. Still, I am grateful that I do have a job which is my source of income. I just hope sooner or later we’ll have more projects to work on or even opportunities since I’m starting to feel like I’m one of those who don’t give that much value to the team which sucks really. 

Wardrobe Update

I’m slowly trying to transition my wardrobe to basic clothing, those without prints. I even prefer neutral tone colors for quite some time now. 

Loving Myself

I honestly used to be hard on myself whenever I did something wrong but fast forward to now I’m trying to slowly be understanding with myself. It takes time tho but yeah hopefully sooner or later it would be easier already for me to do so.

So that’s a quick update on myself for the past years.
