rainduo but they’re characters in one of those god awful teen drama shows

THEY WOULD BE SO OBNOXIOUS CAN YOU IMAGINE........okay admittedly my only exposure to teen drama shows in the last like five years is heartbreak high and riverdale so maybe my tastes are too finely tuned to high cinema. but i will try

actually i tried to imagine c!rainduo in riverdale and i think they'd just be very canonish. maybe with more fighting than what actually happened between them in the end (we need the drama for #ratings). i have literally zero justification for it but i've always looked at cheryl's queen of the bees scene and got Yeah c!niki would serve this. i could see them having a very overdramatic falling out on the side of their own messy love lives and junk like as if they weren't nightmares enough on their own

oh maybe niki can even commit some arson!! i guess this is assuming wilbur isn't dead hm. i mean if we're going on riverdale rules i don't think they ever resurrected someone from the dead but i wouldn't have been surprised if they did yk. either that or he can be a bit jason blossom core dead before the story began core.......in season ONE jason blossom thank you. maybe she suspiciously knows too much about what happened to him (a la the TNT) and is resolutely pretending he got out of town, even though he was really supposed to contact her safely by now.........

or we could put them in an organ harvesting cult and they could perform heathers maybe. i think that would be fun. niki martha sweep where she sings kindergarten boyfriend (secretly about puffy or something) and then gets Very emotional about it onstage and it Is embarrassing. ik i keep saying wilbur isn't really jd coded but let me tell you. as someone who once was going thru a reality break in my high school drama class there is nothing like being cast as a villain or a character that's a little bit too spiky to make your brain start treating you in interesting and unkind ways

okay i've thrown enough darts at the wall i think i'm just rambling now. But seriously nonnie this concept is fun

[zhongrin]

tbh I'm not sure if rambling/ranting abt characters you enjoy is allowed in this blog but man I still think abt how I got Kazuha on my NA/America acc last year

Like every time I see him on my acc and fanart of him w/ the other boys I am always, ALWAYS reminded of how he decided "oh lol I'm coming home at like the second 10 pull with your primos :)"

And honestly it was during his debut so i cannot tell you the feeling I had when I see that golden light just BARRELING and the ugly yell I let out because I??? Got my ronin boy???? Against 50/50???

I swear I'm not delusional but God I want to rant sm abt him because it was also during the first archipelago event and he hasn't left my team since then ;v; I genuinely owe him a LOT for helping my now (sort of) built team and every day I just go "damn, I wouldn't be having an easier time traveling without you on my party"

I don't know man, I may sound extremely delusional ranting abt my favorite anemo boy that has so much trauma on his shoulders that he's resolved during the events + story quests but he's so precious, it makes my heart soar. I would rant more of what I want to do to him (all sfw of course, I'm too embarrassed to rant abt NSFW online ahisbsidjd), but this could take ages and I don't wanna swamp your inbox ;v;

Anyway, rant over, I just want to talk abt my first encounter with Kazu and how he decides that day of all days to come home despite me not being extremely close to pity (and hasn't left my party since)

(p.s: I really love your blog and your works!! I have so much saved and liked because I love rereading it on my off time— you were an inspo on my own writing blog that's based on a different fandom and I love your interactions w/ other people jajsbsjsb /pos /gen. I don't usually come and send an ask because I'm scared of coming across as too forward or even as too creepy ;v;

also, it's because as much as I like checking other people's works like Ansy's, yours just has a special place in my heart and I love rereading your fics when I found them. I am biased on Kazu and Xiao but the way you write others has me clutching my chest like "gods I'm going to love them and I don't like the thought of it but ough—" wwwwww

Also, as an additional note, I did migrate from Ansy's which was the Ayato one...? because I saw one of the posts w/ you and decided to hop in wwwww, anyways side tangent here over ty for reading my full confession /exag)

— 🌸🍒

it's VERY MUCH ALLOWED!!! tell me all about your faves!! tell me about your f/os if you have them!! tell me about the mundane things you and your f/o does!!! literally go ham, bc rex lapis knows i am gushing every day every second 24/7 about zhongli (and al haitham, but mostly zhongli) so ofc yall get the same privilege lol

hsldkjflsdf lucky!! i had to spend some $ on kazuha on his second rerun(?) i believe, because i was not yet into genshin when he came out! he's SO good at both combat and exploration, i totally agree. makes it SO much easier to gather the drops too!!

mr./ms./mx. cherryblossom nonnie, i would like to let you know that you're always welcome to drop a whole-ass essay (both sfw or n.sfw) on your beloved anemo boy if you want to. i might not always reply to it immediately but i promise you i will eventually. you wouldn't swamp my inbox or anything, it's fine!! i never feel pressured to answer asks and i know my followers don't expect me to do so immediately!!

ps. i'm literally gonna cry /pos that's??? so sweet??? i'm super glad you're having fun reading my silly writings and the interactions with my friends <3 definitely not creepy at all! i love receiving asks and talking with people!!

SO YOU'RE THE SAME PERSON AAAA i actually considered asking you bc i saw you on ansy's blog and i went 👀 could it be??? but i decided not to just in case bc i don't want to confuse people if it turns out my hunch was wrong lol BUT ANYWAY WELCOME!!! i hope you'll enjoy your stay here... mayhaps we can secretly fangirl over ansy's amazing works hehehehe

[inevitably-johnlocked]

Hey Steph, I am just asking a little bit but I have been writing a rather long Johnlock fic for over a year now. And it's been fun I admit but I just don't feel like I get many people interested compared to other writers. I still want to finish my work but I just am a bit scared of screwing up.

Currently, John and Sherlock in my fic are going through what would be called as a rough patch with both pining majorly for each other but John doesn't want to confess because he thinks Sherlock isn't interested and also due to other circumstances.

My fic features Sherlock screwing up a lot and I just don't know if this is in character enough.

From I have seen, Sherlock just seems like the type to screw up a lot, especially since he kinda seems emotionally constipated to me.

I have gotten some comments asking why I don't just write John forgiving Sherlock (by the way this takes place after season 2 aka Sherlock's fake place and is a canon divergence in some ways, meaning season 3 and 4 won't happen but Sherlock will still come back and John will still feel angry).

I am a bit confused because in my eyes, there are still a lot of problems to work through between the two.

Am I just writing too long or am I just a bad writer when handling Sherlock ?

Because I just think writing Sherlock screwing up and trying to repair his mistakes is an in character idea. No offense but I just think Sherlock can be a dick sometimes and has a chance of ruining his chance with John.

And I did write John after give Sherlock a good lunch after he returned, just letting Sherlock slip back in his life, but he's just more cautious now and tries to keep his temper in control because he doesn't want to physically assault anyone out of nowhere again. And apparently some think that I am writing John like a doormat.

What do you think, Steph?

I know my question is a bit too long but I am just desperate for a second opinion

Hey Nonny! *HUGS*

First off, OOOOOF I feel you on the "taking a year or more to write a fic" front, hahah. I've had a few drabbles drafted for years now and because I keep nitpicking them, they're not getting done, heh heh.

Secondly, Nonny, there is no right or wrong way to write your interpretation of the characters in your own fic! Every single one of us reads all the characters differently, and just because you see a character as X and I see them as Y, doesn't mean you're writing them "wrong", just means you have a different idea for the path you want to take these characters on! It's TOTALLY natural to be concerned about how you're projecting them, but you also have to remember that, say, a super bubbly character isn't going to work in a dark brooding setting unless you're intentionally writing a parody. Same goes for your interpretation of the character: you have a character journey planned, and you have a baseline for his character based on your interpretation of the show, and you go from there!

I know it's easy enough for me to say all that, but really, I think as long as you're "feeling" his character is believable within the universe you created for him, then I don't think there's anything to worry about! AND if you're that concerned, put a call out for a beta to check over your story when its first draft is done. A beta is essentially a second set of eyes who will correct inconsistencies that you've missed, grammar check, and ensure your plot threads are all tying up nicely!

And, here's the thing, "if you write it, they will come". If you're concerned about negative, non-constructive feedback, set the story to be locked to Ao3 and turn off Anonymous comments. Quite frankly, your story sounds super interesting and I'm totally wanting to read it now, hahah.

Don't think too much on it, Lovely, and remember that you're writing the story because it's one YOU want to see. I wrote Sonic fanfiction in my teens over 2 decades ago, and while I do cringe at them now, I do still enjoy the world I created for those characters, and always enjoy going back to that universe. And the same goes for your story. You might cringe about it years from now, but as long as YOU enjoyed it, and can look back fondly upon it, then there's no "right or wrong" way you could have done it <3

That all said, I'm SURE you have written something great, and please, when you do start posting it, let me know, I would be honoured to promote it for you :)

I hope to hear from you again soon, Nonny. Please don't second guess yourself, get a second set of eyes on that story if you're unsure, and take constructive criticism for what it is: people wanting more stories set in your universe from you, and just want to make sure you feel confident in doing so. <3

If any other authors have some suggestions for Nonny, please do!

[ghoulciifer]

Lol, aight, I'll bite. Shinsou, Bakugo and Shoto hcs for what they would do for you in animal crossing? Like, would they plant flowers for you, or help you meticulously plan your island? I kinda imagine Shoto becoming obsessed with the Stalk Market, originally to pay of all your loans but then it it becomes really fun for him... Something like that? :3c

hc: how Shinsou, Bakugou, and Todoroki play Animal Crossing with you.

tw: none

tags: fluff, animal crossing, me gushing over hitoshi and shoto

notes: hi anon, ty for taking my bait hehe i really had to think about this one and it was actually super fun to write!! idk why i’ve been in stuck on ac mode or what my obsession w thinking how hq or bnha characters would feel about it is but i’m glad you guys are feeding into that lol. as always ty for requesting, inbox is open, and ily dearly, nonnie. ❥

» out of these three i definitely think shinsou is the only one who actually owns the game and plays on his own island

» he’s a gamer boi, prove me wrong i fkn dare you

» so i think regardless if you two are hanging out with each other or not he’s always on your island or you’re always in his, switching back and forth between the two to help each other out

» i see him as an aesthetic player, he wants his island to have a certain vibe when his friends (literally just you n’ denki) come to visit or when he’s just chilling by himself, fishing with tex or smth idk

» so he’s always on the lookout for things to add, be it from nook’s cranny or design codes he stumbles upon

» he also cares about your island’s atmosphere so best believe he’s sending you shit left and right

» can’t even count how many times you’ve hopped on the game to find your mailbox full of things he sent you with a mix of cute n’ mean notes attached

» they range from “y r u so stinky >:(“

» to “i love you so fuckin much have this shaved ice maker”

» no in between

» also somehow pays off his loans WAY too fast, like where is he getting this fuckin much he spends so many bells on the two of you

» never fails to drop bags of them in front of your house before he hops off for the day

» you try to get him to take the bells back because you are an independent woman who don’t need no man jk pls love me ‘toshi

» but he just runs to the airport and shuts his switch off as soon as you start chasing him

» texts you not even 30 seconds later to say he doesn’t mind being your sugar daddy 🙄

» now I see bakugou as being someone who can’t be bothered by ac LOL

» not that he wouldn’t enjoy it bc i very much so think he would (though he’d never admit it)

» but he wouldn’t really make an effort to hop on every day, maybe doing so every once in a while to blow off some steam or kill some time

» he probably wouldn’t own his own switch either tbh so he’d be on your island as player two awe

» probably put his house way the fuck at the top of the map so no one could bother him LOL

» when you’re not on with him he’ll just do some housekeeping like picking weeds, selling overgrown flowers, watering any plants you were trying to grow, etc.

» just help out with the general upkeep of the island

» lets you do all the decorating and building because he likes your style much better than his own also can’t stick with an aesthetic to save his life

» wracks up a SHIT ton of bells from all the tree chopping, weed picking, bug catching and fishing he does (BUT DOES NOT SHARE WITH YOU)

» majority of your museums donations were from him because he just wants you to worry about making the island look nice

» he. is. a. villager. gatekeeper. WILL NOT let an ugly villager move in and if they do? he’s bonkin’ them with his net and sending them trash DAILY

» “GET THE FUCK OFF Y/N’S ISLAND YOU UGLY ASS RAT”

» you don’t mind tho because he’s uh, kinda right

» overall he’s just helping you out with the small, tedious things that come with your island. would never admit it but deep down he does it because he knows how much you enjoy putting things together to create your own cute little world

» always sends you post cards at the end of the day to tell you what he did and remind you he loves you <3

» i really had to sit and think ab this one because while i wholeheartedly agree with anon that he’d be into the stalk market, he would not understand why tf you play this game LOL

» honestly don’t even try to sit there and explain it because he’ll just stare at you like

» “?? you like being in debt to a raccoon ??”

» but i think once you convince him to give it a try he’ll KIND OF see the appeal

» especially, like anon said, the whole stalk market dynamic and how relatively easy it is to make bells

» another one who probably doesn’t own a switch so he plays on your island too, but he definitely puts his house RIGHT NEXT to yours, what a cutie

» he’s just trying to help out out the best he can. really likes putting whatever bells he makes during the day toward your loans or dropping them in your home so you can use them to relocate a building or smth

» surprisingly really into gardening ??

» when he complimented your flowers in front of resident services you told him he could have a whole lot to himself to make a garden, if he wanted to

» his face LITERALLY went 🥺 ‘n you almost cried from how sweet he looked

» so now your entire island is just covered in pretty flowers and shrubbery, a whole garden off to the side next to a waterfall and an orchard right beside it

» sometimes he’ll pick whatever flower matches your outfit the best and give it to you so you can put it on your character’s noggin’ HE IS SO CUTE

» you like to remind him how funny it is that he’s suddenly so invested in the game when he could not understand why you liked it so much

» “Well... it’s almost like I’m building another life with you, Y/N. Of course I like it now.”

» then proceeds to hold your cheeks in his hands when you become a blushing, blubbering mess from his words

[bridgeportbritt]

do you have any tips for starting a gameplay/story simblr? i wanna start but i have no idea where to begin. also, i’m a little afraid that i’ll get bored quickly (as i have with so many saves and so many blogs) and let everyone who follows me down. ty xxx

Hi nonny! I'm happy to provide some tips based on how I started and how I keep from getting bored.

This is way longer than I anticipated so I will put it under the cut.

1. Fall in Love with Your Characters 

Hopefully, this doesn’t sound weird but you need to love and adore the sims you’re writing about. I started playing with the family I’m telling a story about years ago way before I ever posted my gameplay or story. In my head, all of my sims have unique personalities and relationships to each other. Over time, they grew near and dear to my heart. 

Even when I’m not storytelling, I enjoy playing with them and creating up scenarios in my head and how their personalities fit. It really has to be fun and enjoyable for you in order to not get bored. I love all my followers, but storytelling and sims is solely for my own enjoyment. So with or without followers or a blog, I’d still play with these sims and tell their stories.

2. Outline What You Want to Happen in Your Story

So whether it’s gameplay or storytelling, you need to have some idea of what you’re working towards and what you’re tying to accomplish. When I’m playing, I’m normally accomplishing furthering careers and finding love. When I’m storytelling, I have an outline that I create for each chapter of my story. I use Google docs and simply write out the scenes and color code them based on if I’ve taken screenshots, drafted posts, or published a post. You don’t have to do it that way but that is what works for me. 

Getting to know your characters and their situations is really important in my eyes because it helps me figure out what will happen in my story. For example, Bria is an extroverted, ambitious, character who loves fashion and also has a love for rebelling. So I put her in situations that make sense for her like having a baby in college, starting a fashion line, or getting in trouble for her wardrobe both as a teen and a Royal. For Diana, I know she’s a sheltered spare who’s reserved and loves to learn, so I put her in situations where she has to be less reserved (like being Queen lol) and having her open a museum and university. It’s all tied to the characters themselves.

3. Get a Process Going that Works for You

I’m a creature of routine and habit and my life is super scheduled because I’m super busy, so with anything I like to have a process that allows me to easily get into whatever I’m doing and focus. As of right now, I normally create my outline first, dress sets and sims, take screenshots/play, and draft the posts with dialogue and editing photos. 

You find what works for you, but I recommend something that allows you to be focused without stifling your creativity. And it’s okay if it changes or if you do things differently from time to time. 

4. Take the Pressure Off

Okay, this is getting long but I will end with this tip because I think it’s really important. It’s easy to put a ton of unneeded pressure on yourself. But, it’s always been important to me to have fun and use this as a creative outlet. Creativity is very fluid. There is no right or wrong way to be creative. Perfection does not equal creativity. It’s also really hard to be creative when you’re miserable.

So have fun with what you’re doing. Don’t make it a job or set ridiculous expectations for yourself. Don’t think your blog needs to be like anyone else’s to fit in. I think most people here can agree that they very much don’t fit in which is why they’ve turned to a space like this. You will go longer and be less bored when you have fun and not pressure yourself.

Bonus: Interact and Find Your People

For me, this one is the hardest one to do and took some time but I’ve made a lot of great friends here! It started with me following their stories and engaging with them, then I started my story and we’d engage with each other, then I headed over to discord for more interaction. And through that process I’ve found a lot of cool people who motivate me and inspire me daily! I literally said the other day that I’d create all the Bria content in the world just for them lol. Don’t be discouraged by people having their own friend groups or feeling like an outsider. All friendships take time to form but if you put the effort in and connect with people genuinely, it’s really awesome and makes storytelling even more fun!

Lastly, if you need any tools or resources, I’m happy to help. I’ve created some things for the Royal Server in the past and happy to answer additional questions. Good luck!

Feel free to ignore but I saw in some ask how others say gcu which made me think of the mcu and my train of thought just kept going. Do you have any what ifs or multiverse thoughts floating in your head? Like different pairing than the ones in the gcu (like mcstrome and tkasaitl instead of mcdrai and stromecat) or what if eric actually took cole up on his offer. I thought it would be interesting to hear your thoughts cause there are like a thousand different possible pairings and you have said before that sometimes the gcu just writes itself. Thanks in advance if you end up answering!

"FEEL FREE TO IGNORE" DARLING NONNIE YOU HAVE TO KNOW I WOULD NEVER IGNORE YOU. YOU ARE MY ONE TRUE LOVE <3 <3 <3

SO, in answer to your question yes, and at the same time, no...

(I get lengthy on this one so I'm gonna put a cut in)

I have OTHER versions of the boys in my head for OTHER fics, but I wouldn't think of them as AUs of the GC verse, because they're like, just other fics...

The GC has no AUs because, well, this question kind of implies I PLAN what is going to happen to these boys, and I have HOPES AND DREAMS FOR THEM but I do not plan for them, I sit down to write and whatever happens happens. This is literally the most chaotic fic ever for a reason.

It's worth saying that I really DO NOT ship MattDrai. (I will read Matt Drai fic, but only because my friends write it and I like to read what my friends write). BUT I am a stromecat shipper OVER a mcstrome shipper (Because McStrome should be the baby Strome/McLeod's shipname). Like, most of these ships STARTED OUT as my preference of ships, like Cale/Carter is my weird preference that has seeped out into the fandom (which I lowkey love. My life goal is that one day, someone who hates me, will write a cale/carter fic because they've seen someone they like writing one and they won't realise I built that ship). BUT the ships change/mutate throughout the course of the GC, so like, I fought the McMattDrai for so long because I HATE it, and I hate Connor/Matty and I don't think it works but they were fucking determined and sometimes you just have to let the characters run free. You guys remember that flashback where Connor was hooking up with someone and we find out it's Matthew? YEAH I DIDN'T KNOW WHO THAT WAS UNTIL AFTER I STARTED WRITING IT

I wish the GC had some Nate/Tys history also, that would be sweet, it doesn't. What's stopping me from writing in Nate/Tys history? WHO FUCKING KNOWS but my brain says "No, GC Nate/Tys never have." (GC EJ and Tys have though ;) ) And this is the thing, I HONESTLY feel I don't control GC most of the time so I don't spend any time thinking about it OTHER than when I am writing it or answering anons.

Other fics that I write I think up scenarios for and mull over in my head for days and weeks and months at a time depending on the sitch. But this one really does seem to write itself sometimes, and that's fun and all, but is probably going to end up with some super contradictions in the future

But honestly, you should imagine the process for GC like I have one of those adorable magic 8 balls in my hand and I'm like "MattDrai?" and it's like "Try again later" and I'm like "Cale/Carter?" and it's like "Yes" and I'm like "Jeff/Eric? PLEASE PLEASE JEFF AND ERIC" and I keep getting "No," "No," and "Try Again Later" and I KEEP SHAKING THE DAMN BALL BECAUSE I DON'T LIKE THAT ANSWER

Whewwww... I think I need a tea...

Also Nonnie, I wasn't joking up at the top there, I love you, feel free to send me asks/anons/dm's :D

[castawavy]

avery&isaac and finn&luna for 46(younger), 48, 49 and 50!!! love ur OCs <3

AWWW ty nonny ily too hehe! <3 🥺

46) would they have been friends with each other in school?

omg for babu school this is so fun isaac would definetly have made avery cry I think, avery was a super sensitive child 🧍‍♂️ and isaac just-wasn't I think they would have been friends though, like they wouldn't hate eachother or anything AAAA as for finn and luna they would have vibed but luna was super DUPER shy unless you would ask her about a topic she liked <3 and finn was a bold child until like an adult talked to him then HE would get shy, they would have been friends tho but luna would have found him a lil too boisterous and wouldve preferred hanging out with the girlies in her class 💖

putting the rest under a cut CUZ its so long im sorry nonny </3

48) do they get on well with each other’s family? Is family important to them?

ivery: alright so isaac and averys mom would clash a bit ngl, avery's mom is quite a judgmental lady and she wouldnt vibe so much with how he's an artist AHAA (I dont agree with her just to clarify) isaac however would get on super well with avery's sisters he is also an older brother like avery so ye. isaac's family love avery and think hes too good for isaac AHAHAHA </3

fluna: 👏 LUNAS parents literally think that no one is good enough for their baby girl but they need to learn to let her go so there would probably be some tension there for real!!! lunas mom would relent tho seeing her daughter happy, but finn would really have to convince her dad LMAO finn's mother would worry that luna is too posh and out of touch with reality but she would think that luna is nice... LMAO the rest of finn's family wouldnt have any issues vibing with her 💖

49) do they tease each other? What about?

ivery: isaac generally teases avery more! about him being shy, or about avery being controlling about cleaning and stuff isaac thinks its hilarious to push his buttons (in an affectionate way) meanwhile avery teases isaac for his lack of emotional availabilty AHAHA again in a self aware moment for them both!

fluna: luna is inacapable of teasing, she just isnt good at it! finn will tease her about when she gets all flustered about things because he thinks its cute LMAO

50) Is there anything that scares them about their friendship/relationship?

ooo a serious one 🧍‍♂️👀

ivery: i'll answer for their friendship as thats canonically where they are at... for now AHAHA but avery worries that he would ruin their friendship due to his feelings getting in the way, he likes just being around isaac but he wonders if thats bad for both of them </3 isaac worries that avery will get tired of him, he can be a little insecure and feel like he has to be funny all the time to keep people as his friend!!!

fluna: luna would worry that the pressure from her family would be too much for finn, there's a lot of expectations on her and she wouldnt want to lumber him with that burden, especially since hes already working so hard to prove himself to others <3 finn would worry that he's not good enough for luna 😭 since he thinks shes so amazing!! hes worried he would never be able to live up to what she would want in life <3

[ddarker-dreams]

dropping by to tell u that ur my favoritest yan fic writer out there and your yan genshin updates give me life MUAH

thank you so much nonnie!!!! 😘😘😘 i appreciate you!!! i’ve absolutely loved writing for genshin, so i’m glad that the community is thriving with so much content aaaa ❤️ warms my heart...

anon 2 asked: I’m not sure if this has been asked before or not, but have you read/watched Togashi’s other work Yu Yu Hakusho? If you haven’t, I think you’d definitely like Kurama.

i have heard of it but i haven’t watched it before! i looked up the design for kurama and wow... he is a very pretty boy. he has these mysterious vibes that makes me think i would like him. if i ever get around to watching it i’ll keep an eye out for this boy 👀

anon 3 asked: If you don't mind me asking, what other games do you play besides genshin?

my cycle of playing games is kind of messed up by genshin right now since that’s the main game i play whenever i get hit with Gamer Urge. however, the games ive enjoyed the most recently other than that would be divinity original sin 2, darkest dungeon, pokémon, animal crossing, and fire emblem!

anon 4 said: it's nice to see a fellow hu tao simp! i was so excited to see you make a yandere hu tao x reader,, i rarely see any x reader content of her so i just silently suffer most of the time 💔 ty for feeding us hu tao simps good food op i will be reading that story religiously everyday 🛐

we need more hu tao in this world, i fully agree. every time i see her i just can’t help but smoke... i think it’s the super cute hair. long pigtails 🥺 ANYWAYS you have god tier taste anon. i trust anyone that loves hu tao.

anon 5 said: i am going to kiss u on the forehead as gently as i can,,, that hu tao fic was absolutely delicious❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

THANK YOU NONNIE!!! i was worried at first over how much macabre hu tao typical dialogue to incorporate into a fanfic, but i ended up content with the balance. she can be soft when she wants to, after all. i’m happy that you enjoyed it!

anon 6 said: You posted the harem HCs right after I finished work and it was such a treat to read. I love them. I know you obviously didn't write them for me in mind but thank you for brightening up my day!

PHEW what good timing!! i end up working on my writing on and off throughout the day and finishing it around the time people (in american) time zones would be getting home. i’m glad that you were able to enjoy the headcanons after a day of work!!

anon 7 said: I loved the Liyue reverse harem, how can you be such a good write???Xiao being a puppy is actually cute and I love this concept

i was looking forward to including vigilant xiao watching over his crush the most 😭 it’s just an adorable sight to picture. he’s such an intimidating figure, it can’t help but melt your heart that he’s there to ensure you’re always safe. the main trick is writing the most self indulgent stuff, anon. that is what produces the best you have to offer because you’re having such a good time writing it.

anon 8 said: akfhdsh Lock why was that Zhongli fic so hot🔥?? Ahh I haven't been able to get it out of my head ALL day & 5000 words? You are superb 😍 I can't help but feel so sorry for poor darling. Having to do that with him on the very first night, man didn't even give her a break/a chance to settle down. Either way I'd love for you to throw some concepts here & there if you can 👉👈 or share your afterthoughts ^_^  the universe in this one felt especially great! I wish you the best of luck, take care <3

it’s all because of the random zhongli dream anon 😭 i couldn’t get him out of my mind until i wrote a loooong fic for him. the idea of his darling being with him since the archon war days is my favorite! i’ve always had a soft spot for it, ever since i was trying to figure out what a yandere zhongli might look like back in november. it’s just... genuinely horrifying to imagine being stuck with that for thousands of years. especially when people view rex lapis so highly in liyue, darling feels even more alone on her festering feelings. there’s no relief to be had.

i think i’ll do a big ol headcanon post because the world for yan zhongli and his god darling is so big, i’ve given it a Lot of thought. but the main gist of it is how darling deals with the inaccurate portrayal of their history together. and of course, she interacts with others, since zhongli has the reassurance from the contract that she won’t try to escape. so there’s a lot of angst there. 😭

anon 9 asked: Hey! any plans for more Hu tao content in the future? your last story was just really gooood, she's such an interesting character! I've also been hooked to Rosaria and I'm wondering if you plan to write for her aswell... hopefully no one asked this already lol

i’d love to write more for hu tao!! she is a character that i adore a lot. currently, i don’t have any ideas for her that would get me going, but once i see one or get hit with inspiration she’ll make a reappearance. i do have a few hu tao requests so hopefully those will help inspire me. AND ROSARIA... 🥺 WHAT A WOMAN. i want to learn more about her!! i’ll write for her when her stories and voice lines are all out, that way the characterization is more accurate. she captured my heart with that distant attitude and those listless eyes 🥰🥰

anon 10 said: hi hi!! i just wanted to say i discovered genshin impact bcs of you! i saw your yandere genshin posts back in november, i didn't know anything abt genshin or their world but i read it and just googled their names to know their appearances lmfao and until then i just fell into a rabbit hole of genshin. i eventually grew tired of not knowing anything abt genshin and its lore so i craved around early january and downloaded the game despite me not rlly being a gamer™ and now i'm here at ar 51, a hu tao main and no, i haven't touched grass since downloading the game 😭

ah yes, welcome anon, to what could be considered heaven or help depending. if you were able to get hu tao then i’d say you’re in the latter camp (aside from having to grind for her ascension materials, that is pure suffering). it’s a fun game to get into during this quarantine/spotty lockdown time, so i hope you’ll enjoy your time with it! i’m glad that mihoyo releases content often enough to keep us well fed.

anon 11 asked: Lock dearest, have you ever watched Jujutsu Kaisen?

i like that super cute girl with short finger hair!! i’m planning on watching the show when it’s completed, which i think is soon? ill binge watch it. i’ve recognized a lot of my favorite voice actors from the clips i’ve seen posted, so i’m excited to give it a shot.

anon 12 asked: You watch Demon Slayer? It's really great 🤯

i’ve seen clips of the amazing animation before! it’s currently on my list of shows to watch. 👀👀

Anonymous: What are your game graphic settings?? Your screenshots are so high quality!

I play on ultra but toned down my edge smoothing and objects and thats about it!

Anonymous: Hi Vikai!! I found your amazing 80s themed Totally Rad hair and wanted to ask if it's possible for to upload a version with no barrette. The bangs work perfectly with the rest of the mesh and I tend to go for simple yet gorgeous hairs. Pretty please and thanks for reading!

I’ll see if I can, thank you!

Anonymous: hi! i love your cc so much <3 ur work is amazing!!! recently i saw a recolour for the 'cherry hair' but its not on your blog anymore... what happened to it? would u be willing to post a download link? its super cute. thank u!!!

+  Hi there, I happened to stumble upon the Valentine's Day Stuff pack and when i went to download it, it said the link couldn't be found. I'm not sure if this is an issue with computers being dumb or if you genuinely took the post down. So, if there is anyway to download I'd appreciate it greatly if you could tell me :)

It was from a pack, but since it’s old, the cc in it broke games, so I thought it was better to remove it, and I don’t like my cc pieces enough in the pack so I don’t see myself reuploading it, I’m sorry!

Anonymous: do you maybe have the time to list your best blushes, eyebrows skin details lipsticks and eyelashes (it can be just one of all)

I have a resources page that links mostly all that I have in my game!

Anonymous: hello i’ve been trying to download your totally rad hair for children but it says the link is wrong or file has been deleted, so i just wanted to know where i could download it or if it’s still available for download c: thank you

I’m working on trying to update the hair so stay tuned!

Anonymous:  Would you ever consider making a version of the marion hair with the hair untucked? Or do you know of something similar? Thank you!

It’s not something I’d want in my game so I’m afraid I won’t.

Anonymous: about your tou can we include your meshes orr?

Completely forgot to add it, no I don’t allow people to include/use my meshes. (I do combine things from packs so I think everything you’d want is already there!)

Anonymous:  What’s the name of the hair you deleted from your blog?

You’ll have to be a little more specific, nonny!

@doubled-sims:  Hey Vikai, what happened to your Achelios hair? I saw it on here asshole back but I cannot seem to find it now. Did you delete it or something?

I did delete it, some people said it has bugs and after a while I decided that I wasn’t happy with the way it looked so I took it down, it’s still up on some cc finds blogs I think.

@butterfliesimss: Wcif the glasses you used in Marion's hair I've been searching but I can't find them :(

Please take a look at my wcif tag!

Anonymous: Wcif the eyelashes you used on your marion hair post? (im not sure if you’ve answered this, im on mobile and can’t look on my computer right now) if you already answered this please don’t feel obligated to do it again i’ll look later!

It’s all in my resources page!

Anonymous: Are u okay wiht other people using your preview style? its just so neat and i love it

I’m sorry but no, a preview style makes a simblr differentiate from others, so come up with your own! Trust me it’s alot of fun!

Anonymous: HELLO LUV U

Love you too, nonny!

Anonymous:  Hey, do you take requests for running topaz clean on other people's images? Ty! I don't have much money and so I can't get topaz clean.. :(

There’s a free trial, I’m sure you can try that, other than that I don’t think I can. :(

for the fr question thingy!! tidelord, stormcatcher, snapper and coatl? :o

the ask meme in question

awh heck yeah ty for givin me the excuse to do a tiny lore dump nonny! i hope you're having an awesome day <3

Tidelord - Does the element of your dragons’ eyes matter to you in lore?

not too much, honestly! in my heart all my dragons are Arcanites of one kind or another, regardless of how they ended up here, so they all sorta get the same treatment of "you get lore based on your vibes and if they happen to match the vibes of your element that's just a happy coincidence" I will sometimes play off of different eye types, however! I don't pay too much attention to keeping it consistent, but special eye types will sometimes get some lore surrounding it. the basic rule for my lore is pretty much just. appearance doesn't matter unless I say it does <3 in which case it's usually less about element and more about eye type, and even then it tends to be treated as a Personal Lore Thing rather than a broad statement about anyone with that eye type in my lair!

Stormcatcher - What catches your eye in other people’s lore?

this is a hard one, I won't lie :p there's a lot of different things! I think what catches my eye the most consistently though is when I see someone who's so clearly just having fun with it! Even if it's inconsistent, objectively Silly, wildly outside the realm of possibility in fr canon, etc etc, if they're having fun with it that's the most eye-catching thing to me personally!

more specifically on themes nd whatnot though... I usually tend to gravitate towards lore that doesn't take itself too seriously? like no. super heavy social commentary or anythin I mean, something that I can just read on a whim and go like "oh heck yeah that's such a cool premise" sorta thing instead of having to be in the right headspace to read the content in the first place, yknow? which to be clear, this is just personal preference of what I like to read, so it doesn't mean I think that kind of lore is bad!! it's just not something I can read all the time if that makes sense :oc

I also really love lore where people have written out lil stories in their dragon bios or forum post or smthn ^^ I really enjoy reading them over listed notes, so they tend to catch my eye quicker! the amount of times I have gotten excited only to be teased with a lorem ipsum is too many :p

Snapper - Is there a breed you like the hatchlings better than the adults, and if so what breed?

nocturnes! I've never been a huge fan of either adult pose of nocs, since the genes I like most tend to get all.. scrungly? on them? for lack of a better descriptor? but the hatchlings,,, peak shapes, love those lil guys and it delights me to no end when ppl share their permababy nocs!!

Coatl - Which dragon breed has your favorite lore, regardless of how much you like/dislike how they look?

take this with a grain of salt bc I don't remember 90% of site lore and if I happen to follow it it's probably a coincidence but the lore for pearlcatchers has always vaguely stuck with me as cool! I love the social dynamics surrounding their pearls™ nd I feel like what I remember vibes s o well with how the female pearlie pose reads to me! they're just... mmgh vibes, feel like a mildly problematic dnd character I would make or smthn idk I just think they're Neat

Hey, this isn’t meant to be an attack, it’s just uhh... I don’t know I guess it was a little aggressive what you said about geminis? Like ok astrology is mainly dumb but it’s fun and like anon said “we’re annoying little two faced shits” I know it’s meant in like sarcastic dumb humor cause I’ve said things like that myself and it’s always meant to be a joke. But I think you might have generalized to us all about something that someone shouldn’t be doing to you because it’s shitty, and I understand how that would upset you and like, fuck those people, but as I said before, maybe it’s a little more aggressive than it should be, specially because we are so many and maybe I’m not the only one that got hurt by that. Maybe it’s dumb to be hurt by a post about geminis, but nonetheless it gives me some anxiety and I thought I should try to talk about it.

Maybe that’s my problem and I should deal with that myself, and, i don’t know, avoid that but I just thought maybe it made sense.

Again, I’m not trying to attack you I’m just letting you know about it, I’m sorry if I’m crossing a line here

hi anon, i originally wasn’t going to answer this because i really just don’t have the energy today but you were super polite about it all so i thought you kind of deserved an explanation.

to make things perfectly clear, i don’t genuinely believe in astrology. i think it’s fun, it’s cool to read about and participate in, but i personally think it holds no genuine weight regarding someone’s personality. that being said, i totally respect those who do think it is true or real. the original post where this started was someone asking me what i had against geminis, to which i responded saying “with the exception of one or two geminis i know, the majority of them i have met are childish, don’t own up to their mistakes and push the blame on others.”

to highlight another thing you said, astrology is literally a generalization of everyone born in a certain time frame. how do you think astrology stereotypes were created? through generalizations. my point is that yes, i have generalized the geminis i’ve met because that’s the behaviour that has been displayed in the majority of them. that being said, i’m fully aware that just because geminis i’ve been have acted like that doesn’t mean that every other gemini is the same way. i’m completely aware of it.

without highlighting other asks that don’t pertain to this particular one, i deleted them because it was just a lot of negativity on my blog that i didn’t really want there. it was anon hate and it wasn’t important.

but to get to the root of this ask i guess, i do honestly wanna apologize if the post made you upset. just because i feel indifferent to something doesn’t mean everyone else will feel the same way so i’m sorry that it made you anxious. if you felt anxious about that, you’re emotions are totally valid and it’s not dumb at all. it wasn’t my intent to make anyone feel that way, but i did want to clear up a few things with this ask. ty for bringing this to my attention nonny <3
