Hi! Still working on my FF and another’s in the work hahaaa—I’ve been given mild ao3 author curse (depression, seeking therapy 🥂)—but in the meantime, here’s them 💜

Will likely post next few chapters later this month before school picks up and I’m more in the groove of things ~^_^~

I like crossovers. :V

[the-great-papyru]

i’m gonna be honest, i didn’t feel any inspiration for today (yesterday)’s 15daysofdetermination prompt, so… i’m just gonna skip it, haha. probably tomorrow (today)’s as well. have a first-person flowey pov poem about stars instead. (under the cut)

I’ve heard about stars.

They’re small—so small you could hold one in the palm of your hand, if you had a star, and you had a hand.

They’re bright—not the kind of brightness the sun gives off as you walk toward it, eyes watering, as it sinks and breathes its last. The kind of brightness that you take for granted, the kind that lingers, stays, that you can still feel after the cruel sun plunges you into another day same as the last.

They’re innumerable—grains of sand in a desert, breaths in a lifetime, hours in a day (angel knows how many you can fit in there).

I’ve read about stars, too.

They’re nothing—no more than balls of fire, of gas, of tinier specs of scientific code than you can care to count all jumbled up in a heap no more meaningful than anything.

They’re unlimited—a little variation of the same old boring design, copied and pasted all over the infinite universe with no regard for reason, or safety.

When one burns out, does anyone cry? Why would they? When they have so many more to stare at?

Any—all of those stars could be dead. All of them are dead, empty matter burning with fire cold as the embrace of eternity.

They mean nothing.

You can peer at them through frames of twisted, rotten glass. They shine there. Stagnant. Afraid of—incapable of movement. The earth turns and they fall into the same old patterns.

Constellations are no more than stars assigned a role. Soulless dancers twirling upon the sky, playing their roles until they’re not needed—and then playing them again when the choreographer calls.

And I’ve been told about stars.

How you can stare at the sky for hours and still notice something new.

How they’ll be there for you every day, congratulating your successes and trivializing your failures with a warm glow.

How you can say whatever you want to them—they’re too far up to hear, or maybe they just don’t care.

They’re stable—they aren’t going anywhere anytime soon.

They’re beautiful—through some miracle, the universe came together in the right way just to make them.

They’re out there—and someday, you can touch them if you just keep trying to climb.

Stars are nothing, of course.

But it would be nice to hold one.

Good evening, and welcome to:

Sentimental Hour

I took this screenshot of a gifset almost exactly three years ago. It’s the first thing of WinTeam I ever saw, and it’s the first image of them in my phone’s photo gallery.

I’ve been thinking about them and writing about them ever since I first watched UWMA, and part of me was a little afraid that when Between Us ended, I’d be content with what we got to the point where I wouldn’t want to write about them anymore.

That can happen when your ship is both canon and has their own series! Especially if they aren’t characters in a high-stakes situation or part of a secondary world.

WinTeam are just two university club athletes who hooked up one night and fell in love over the course of months while they helped each other sort through their respective traumatic backgrounds.

But they’re the most compelling pairing I’ve ever loved, and I still can’t fully put into words why. Look at them, though. :’(

Some pairings I love are superheroes, figure skaters, pilots of space lions, ancient warriors, a firefighter and a dude hosting a benevolent alien that gives him neon fire powers—

And yet, for some reason, I don’t even write fic for most of those pairings. I love reading fic about them, but I’ll usually just write one or two and then move on.

WinTeam, though. That’s a Forever OTP for me.

Some of it is BounPrem’s chemistry. Even when they’d just been cast, back when they didn’t know each other and barely liked each other, that chemistry was there. Even in photos, you can feel that they have a rare spark.

And it only got stronger the longer they worked together.

But it’s not just the actors, otherwise the series would have been enough for me. It’s the characters. The way they’re written in Hemp Rope and Between Us, the gentleness they show each other when no one’s around, the way they want to trust each other but they’re so afraid to, the way they reach for each other even though they don’t have a name for what they are.

I love so much about them.

I love that their deepest fears and flaws connect them. At the start of the story, Team has kept so much guilt and pain to himself for so long, he’s just adapted to struggle through it. Meanwhile Win is alone and convinced he always will be.

It may always kick me in the heart that Team’s confession builds up to a vow to take the first steps because he can see that Win is too afraid. And he can do it because Win spent months giving Team every imaginable route to comfort and security, even when it cost him sleep or time or energy that he didn’t have to spare. The beautiful thing is that because of Win’s kindness, Team is strong enough to take the lead from Win, who’s been trying so hard to steer when he’s abjectly terrified of making any mistake with Team.

They’re so balanced. In such an ordinary, quiet way. They’ll never leave each other to falter alone because they both understand how that feels. There’s no question that Team will go to the hospital with his new boyfriend to visit his boyfriend’s brother, just like there’s no question that Win will admit to Team how lost he feels.

I think I just wanted to write this all down because I’m relieved that I found them, and even more relieved that even though the series is over, they’re always going to be part of my heart.

And they’ve raised my standard for love stories forever.

There’s something intriguing lore wise about the arcanists from etrian odyssey.

It’s interesting how they’re described as casters from an unnamed land. In a game that’s all about exploring forests to eldritch horrors it leaves a lot of wiggle room to imagine their background. For me I pictured the arcanist in my party being new to the city. Wise within his practice of magic but naive towards the new setting. Thus making the guild his first and soon to be familiar faces associated with the city. A found family to tell his own back at home via letters. (Ik they debuted in 4 but I played them for the first time in nexus)

I had a dream that during ScarVi, Penny canonically kissed Nemona in one of the last scenes of the game

Wasn’t a big shipper of them but now I’m a changed lady

Do you guys remember the small monster alt au thing I brought up a while ago?

Too bad I’m thinking about it again-

Thinking of making two other characters monsters, namely Evelin and Human Adam. Like I’m thinking eve’s some sort of undead human and Adam was a werewolf before he died and never told Jonah about it

[ezekiel13]

I like brown eyes they’re pretty they make me think of my mother and horses and hazelnuts. In that order. Which is also the order of how cool they are.

Anyway big up people with brown eyes if a character has an unspecified eye colour their eyes are brown to me.
