jesus fucking christ growing up and finding out the people who were shitty to u are massive hypocrites is . insane
TRIGGER WARNING FOR LIKE ABUSIVE FRIENDSHIP??? this is a little bit of a ventpost about how my shitty best friend in freshman year forced his transmedicalist idea of masculinity onto me only to grow up a little bit and start dating a cis guy and fall into the trap that most of us trans guys also fall into with cis guys of “oh hes cis so i obviously need to be Girly now”
thats ur tl;dr, read on if ure interested in the juicy details below the cut
so when i was in freshman year i met a kid who was supposedly a year older than me (he wasnt) but he was also a freshman because he got held back a year (he didn’t) (he was a filthy liar)
anyways he just so happens to be a trans guy and thats not where my problem lies with this guy . i wish it was that simple .
now im also a trans guy, and i had just come out at that point when we had met, like im talking i had just freshly come out as a trans man a month before we had met. i had no idea what i was doing or how to act or dress or how to be masculine, and he was like oh let me coach u on how to be a trans man The Right Way
and his “coaching” was terrible advice that literally any trans man whos been trans for more than 5 seconds would tell u is terrible advice;
he told me to eat, sleep and shit in my binder, he told me to abandon all girly clothing and only wear HIS clothes because HIS clothes were cool and masculine and would make me pass better (they didn’t), he told me not to wear makeup unless he was the one who did it, he shamed me for not passing well enough (i was 15 and had a baby face, as well as having big ass man biddies and also being chubby) and he gave me the worlds worst first masculine haircut and dyed it an eye bleeding orange in his kitchen. he forced me to listen to his music only because my music taste was supposedly terrible and he was the one who could drive so he got to choose the playlist (spoiler alert he wasnt legally supposed to be driving without an adult over the age of 25 but that was unbeknownst to me)
basically he told me that fundamentally, i was wrong because i wasn’t him
and any ounce of femininity i dared to show and be comfortable with was also fundamentally wrong
one time while we were all hanging out at my house (him, me, my mom and her boyfriend at the time) and i was talking about how bad i wanted to get on testosterone because i just wanted to feel like a normal teenage boy.
.and get this.
he told me i was “too girly” and “not manly enough” and i “didn’t pass well enough” to go on testosterone
and he told me he thought i was faking being trans for attention and he didnt think i was actually trans because i “wasnt trying hard enough” like he was
i promise this is relevant later im not just saying this to vent
he was also a horrendously shitty person to me and everyone else at the time, and im not saying this because im still salty, no bitch i was 15 he was 15 we were both kids kids are gonna be weird and mean sometimes, but “kids being kids” is not supposed to leave u with trauma that u may never heal from . and he did that to me . but thats irrelevant
anyways, now onto the part thats kind of funny in a fucked up way
so me and his ex boyfriend are best friends now because we both survived the fucked up shit he put us both through, at the same time might i add, and we often talk about how our respective relationships with him still affect us to this day
and today we were talking about going to a concert for a band we both really like that was introduced to us by our mutual enemy, the guy this post is about
and naturally the conversation turned to what hes up to now because my bestie likes to sometimes look at his social media out of curiosity and he told me
that evil bad guy mc bad
is now in a relationship with a cis biker guy
and dresses in crop tops and mini skirts and thigh highs and wears wigs and makeup now
and good for him if he genuinely just enjoys dressing like that now, if thats all it is then im glad hes finally had some character development
but i just have a feeling thats not what this is, that hes doing this solely for the validation of his fuck ass boyfriend
and the thing is, i would feel bad if it was literally Anyone Else going through that, but he did the same thing to me, to his ex who is now my bestie, to my other friends who used to be friends with him, to anyone who’s ever known him honestly.
and i dont wish him ill anymore. i really dont, i could not care less, and this post will probably be the last time i ever think about him because i really could not care about him less at this point, but its insane to me that he used to be so like firm in his opinion that men who were feminine werent real men, and he actively enjoyed making me feel like shit for being too feminine, and now he’s doing the same thing he used to make fun of me for.
maybe im just salty because i never got a real apology from him, but at this point i dont even want an apology from him because i know that it would be more akin to colleen ballinger’s “toxic gossip train” video than a real apology
well i think ive yapped on about this enough if u read all the way here thanks lol

I actually only hold angst in my heart for Journey to Mor Panhk, everything about that event is so deeply touching in a ruins you forever kinda way. Reading that story was like playing Alter Ego or a game that puts you into so much retrospective. Don't even get me started on how Kumar is character for the Eldest Daughters. The thing about it is that the antagonist of Mor Panhk is someone who could've been ANYONE. It makes me think of the Funkyfrogbait video making rounds right now where they said "how many Einsteins have spent thier lives washing dishes? How many Mozarts have bent over stoves instead of pianos?" then learning about the fact that Mozart had an elder sister who some said were better than him yet none of her works survived. Kumar wasn't born with innate talent but she had the skill and tenacity to work herself to make her arcanum strong enough to where two geniuses (one being her own student) had to learn her life's work in order to stand a chance against her. But in the end it'll never matter to her parents because they had a son with exactly what they wanted too. The only issue between them in the cold narrative is that Shamane never wanted that either, he was more livid than anything about what their parents did to her. They have the same tragedy that Theopil and Isolde have, Shamane wanted to love and be with Kumar because he saw her for the talented older sister she was, but Kumar didn't want anything to do with that. Kumar had other plans, and when the bitterness of being abandoned for the sin of being born "wrong" in her parent's eyes, she wanted nothing more than to wipe out the conditions and environment that hurt her off the map. In the end, we could've all been Kumar. I think that's one of the reasons I fixate on her the most and think of her all the time along with Isolde, they're characters who were done wrong then did wrong to others, their wrath at their original abusers overflowing to innocent people. Whether you take her as the Eldest Daughter abandoned for the idealized dream of her parents that a male child could do it better, or you identify with her as another marginalized person who was told they were made "wrong" when they were born a certain way.
Shamane’s character event is one of the best because of when it happened in the game. It showed us exactly how arcane creatures behave and adapt to the ecosystem before we got to [Farewell, Rayashki]. Where Windsong told us exactly what arcane creatures are like, and how they merge into the ecosystem alongside humans. Shamane’s job was to be apart of nature and live in harmony with it while being a person. Most notably, the event showed us how creatures like carbuncles, who are the main reoccurring enemy in the game, aren’t entirely feral like we thought. People like Jessica and New Babel can control arcane creatures like carbuncles, in Jessica’s case she can even talk to them, but they don’t necessarily make friends with them and convince them to fight by their side.

THANKSGIVING MOOTIE APPRECIATION ❤️✨❤️
Happy thanksgiving y'all! And a good time zone to all my non-US/non-Turkey day havers lovelies!
Tis the season of thanks and I'm a very thankful goober this year! I only started getting active on Tumblr about half a year ago and there's already so many people and things I'm grateful for from this site alone! I've enjoyed so much art and events, participated in yap seshes, tag games, and ultimately felt pretty welcomed and at home on this site, and it's thanks to all you! <3<3<3
Special thanks to the DCA fandom in its entirety as well! All the discussions, artists, writers, and shared reposts with all the silly notes are awesome! Y'all inspire me all the time and make me wish I was more outgoing than I am just so I can say hello to each and every one of you!!!!
The list gets long, so for the sake of those scrolling by, I have put it below! Have a lovely day everyone! <3333
@midnight-mourning Your writing is just wonderful. It's everything!!! I adore it so much and your CS boyos have wormed their way into my heart and refuses to leave. Some of my favorite songs even remind me of them! (Don't tell Moon this but I am very attached to CS Sun-)(Honestly gotta be my favorite Sun I've read fr fr) Also! Thank you for just being so supportive, thinking about me in tag games, and giving ALL the tag notes! They're a wonder to read and have me bounce off the walls! I'm always so happy we're mooties! ❤️❤️❤️ (Also, fun fact, you're my first mutual too! It's insane to me HOW DID THIS HAPPEN GUAHPHIAHDKA)
@pointyfruit You! Your art? Muah, wonderful. I don't even care if it's not dca related because it's so good. The shape language, art style, and just unique takes on just anything and everything blows my mind! Let's not forget COLORS. Oml they are so PRETTY. It's like an explosion I never want to end. 💥💥💥 Also! So goofy, so silly, and COTL enjoyer! Let's GOOOOO!!! I don't engage with the fandom much but I DO love the game and honestly I almost beat it, but still have not because I don't wanna do the final boss fight. It can't be over bros... Anyways when I see your posts I always wanna just wave like a neighbor seeing ya blow up 10 boxes of fireworks on a casual Tuesday afternoon. 👋👋👋:D
@divinit3a SPINS YOU!!! 🐶🐕🐶 Heya silly meister! In the midst of reading your work, gotta say? Muwah, Perfecto! The sillies are putting me on a rollercoaster and I'm stuck on the ride! While my ability to yap is a coin flip every hour, you happen to bring the yappening out of me with all the fun notes and posts you do--We've already had so many fun convos! Speaking of posts, the art is peak and will STAY peak! The designs? Muwah. The colors? Muwah. You make even the creepiest of goobers hauntingly beautiful! We've may not have known each other for long, but you're someone I look forward to seeing on my dash/notifications every time I open the app! ❤️❤️❤️
@sinister-sincerely Hi!!!! I'm still sometimes in awe realizing we're mutuals! I really love your work and if I'm in the mood to read something but I don't know what, I tend to turn to Aftersome often, even though I've read both the og and the rewrite! It's like you're the master of writing angst, bitter unrequited feelings, and the strange tenseness but want of confusing relationships. It's gut wrenching and I wish I could write something so evoking! All your stories are amazing and I seriously hope you know that, they're such heavy hitters that they have marked a place in my memory. ❤️ Your art too is wonderful! They don't pop up often but when they do it's a real treat! I love that you use grey scale in a lot of your works and the style is just so pleasing to look at. Whenever I see the DCA in your style I wanna give them the biggest hugs, even if they'd pry me off seconds later! ✨✨✨
@r0b0s-robos / @r0b0-wannabe Waving at you excitedly!!! It's always a pleasure to see your reposts, you always find the good stuff! Plus, you always are trying to help out others and it's amazing to see, your efforts are able to make great impacts. :333 You're also another writer I appreciate immensely, and I'm so invested in your botanist au. The sillies and their botanist who is desperately trying not to fall in love with them!!! ADORE THEM!!! I can't wait to read more! ❤️❤️❤️ The times you post about writing ideas or silly things about the DCA has me nodding my head with a smile. Also, the little notes you leave in tags, despite usually being brief, always makes me so happy! It's like seeing the kind stoic look at you from their seat, let out a small smile, and say "I love this"- and then suddenly it's a blast of blinding white light of endearment straight to my heart. K.O.!
@chickenchirps27 Welcome back!!! I've noticed you've been much more active recently and it's always fun to see what you got goin on! Obligatory art mention, but it would be criminal to NOT mention it. ITS!!! AMAZING!!! THEY LOOK LIKE ROCK CANDY!!! Colors!!! I love it so much, the goobers look delicio- I mean they look adorable and masterfully crafted in each piece of art! And your sona, ugh, she's so gorgeous and alien in the best ways possible. I've never seen anything like her and I am in awe of how you came up with all her little details. Those mantis arms are SICK and I want them!!! (Though drawing may be a little hard if I had em-)✨✨✨
@amarynthian-fortress / @amarynthian-chronicles Hehehe! Boops you! >:D Honestly, thank you for always being the biggest sweetheart around and being so welcoming. You're one of the people that made me feel able to crack my shell more and be more active on here! Your writing is whimsical, your reposts and comments are always so kind and feel-goody, and you just always show you care and the randomest times! Catch me off guard why don't you! I love all the snippets and treats you post, and I'm saving many of your stories to read for rainy days! ❤️❤️❤️
@ping-ski My reaction to us becoming mutuals was- 💥💥💥:OOOOO💥OO💥💥 I think I've followed you right when I started getting active on here and gah, your art is wonderful. So lovely, stylized, and colored so simply yet so appealingly that I can't stop looking. Your aus make me want to read them and their designs are always top tier! Also, I cannot forget to mention you are SILLAY!!! So silly! Your comments on reposts are goofy and I love to read them whenever they come up on my dash! Not to mention your own posts- I will never forget the 3-in-1 solid block of dca encased in ice. I was in awe of seeing them encased and I suddenly wanted my own dca ice cubes to put into a drink and try not to choke on. ✨✨✨
@quilteddreamz Your writing. Oh my GOSH your writing! It's wonderful, beautiful, gah, I can't wait for your advent calender! I wish I could do something for it but I got 3 more weeks of large projects tapped to my back. I am sending much luck your way and know that I am excited to enjoy some daily dca! Don't break yourself over it too! I may adore the goobers but you're most adored first! Take care and keep being such a whimsical person! Muwah! ✨✨✨
@flowysgonemad You are also! Silly!!! You are so fun to see popping around my dash and your doodles just make me go :333 every time! I love your aus and you're a very kind/goofy person! I don't even remember how we became mutuals but garsh diggity dang it, it's awesome to see ya and anything you yap about!
There are MANY more mooties I want to appreciate and show off, but I fear I am currently omw to go to a large thanksgiving dinner and I'm expecting to be there for the rest of the day. SO! If you weren't listed, please know that I AM thinking of you! Have a wonderful time zone, and just know that my heart is so full knowing that you're all there! I can't believe there is that many of you to begin with that I can't fit you all within the time frame! (Would you believe me if I said coming up with all the right words to say here took me 2 1/2 hours?)
So! To all my beloved writers, artists, and sillies alike! From the bottom of my heart, really, thank you! For being here, even reading this, and appreciating the things I do as much as I appreciate you! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️✨✨✨✨✨✨

What's your biggest piece of advice for baby emos??
get ready for a huge text block
1. music is THE MOST important part of the subculture. there's a lot of debate about what is or is not emo, specifically bands like mcr, ptv, fall out boy, ect are considered "poser" emo and "overrated" but I don't agree. emo or not those bands are extremely influential to the subculture. that being said other bands are also just as in need of recognition! my favorite emo bands are: alesana, silverstein, story of the year, black veil brides, a day to remember, a skylit drive, blessthefall, of mice and men, taking back sunday, and senses fail!!
2. clothes aren't what makes you emo, but it's definitely a huge part of the subculture. back in the 2000s emo kids were said to be "obsessed with how they look." band shirts are a staple, studded belts too (though they can get expensive if you shop at hot topic so I recommend hitting a thrift store or a second hand place like Facebook marketplace, making your own is also always an option!!) skinny jeans, beaten up converse or vans (bonus points if they have song lyrics on them) gloves, zip up jackets, messy eyeliner, other band merch, and spikey bracelets are all staple pieces.
3. DIY!!! emo was dead the second people thought a $25 tshirt from shein made you emo. emo is rooted in shitty sharpie tshirts and stitch work. YouTube is a wonderful place to find diy tutorials if you're just starting out
4. moral standpoints. emo is short for emotional, we're whiney little shits lolol. being open about the fact that you're sad or mentally ill and embracing it is what emo is about, we're a subculture made for losers who feel like they don't belong because we're not mentally sound. we made our own place to belong. lots of emo lyrics are about trauma and how we overcome it and giving hope to teenagers everywhere. because we're a subculture full of misfits, we welcome all types. gays, trans people, poc, poor people, ect. there's absolutely zero room for bigotry.
5. yt channels! a really great way to get involved almost immediately. some of these are modern and some from 16-17 years ago, go check out these channels! baileyheintzelman, TheLosersFromNowhere, AmberKatelynBeale, emoworldtv, The Punk Rock MBA, acidmilk, and KERRANG podcast (they have a lot of good band interviews)
6. what is NOT emo. emo has been watered down so incredibly that anyone can claim to be emo if they put on a little eyeliner and some fishnets. bands like rebzyxxx, 6arelyhuman, odetari, and other "scenecore" artists aren't emo or scene. egirls/boys aren't emo. goths and punks aren't emo. and for the love of god tiktok is not the place to learn everything about us
Jesus what a yap sesh.. (¬_¬)
I hope this helped in some capacity!! and welcome to the subculture<33

I just want to say this now, all of my dislike towards Earth is towards the character not Kat.
The fact that people are taking to hating on the voice actors actually disgusts me and I just need it to be out there that as a voice actor (in training) myself and person in the fandom I don't condone that shit. The fact that people think that's okay proves their immaturity and shows how little they respect the people making such amazing work for them to see.
If I was in the presence of someone who I praised so highly I would never think to tell them that they're a horrible person, that they should quit what they love, etc. It's horrible that people think that's a proper form of criticism, at the end of the day I look at the TSAMS fandom and see all of the mutuals I've made, all of the voice actors that work so hard, all of the thumbnail artists that get commissioned to make these astonishing works that encompass the essence of the shows and I feel so happy to be in this spot and in this fandom. However when I get reminded of all of the immature people, kids or not I'm so disappointed that we've stooped so low as a society that online we think we can hate on people and it won't hurt their feelings. Communities are notorious for bullying people off the internet and to the brink of death, we need to stop if we want to better ourselves.
To all the VA's thank you so much for all of the work you do, I love watching the way you write these stories and picking it apart. I love watching you all have fun doing whatever it is, I love when you all include us in your fun and I thank you for making this fandom feel so welcoming. I'm so sorry that the group of people who can't see how much love gets put into this community are bringing you down.
I found the security breach shows when I was in a really bad place mentally, around two years back and it helped keep a smile on my face as I went through medical issues and found the people who'll stick around in my life. The shows have been a comfort to me and I find it incredible that although you came into it with no expectations of success you're out here proving that sometimes all you need to do is have fun. Thank you for making such a fun community and I wish you the best.
Okay serious things over I love y'all so much, thank you for coming to my Yap sesh, bye bro bros:3

"He Isnt exactly just Brawn anymore" He scoffed crossing his arms with annoyance
"besides.... I needed something smart! I can Easily grab another Octoling if I needed another strong soldier" He spoke brushing over the obvious topic regarding his 3.
Cuttlefish the old geezer wasnt exactly the best at choosing fit agents from his knowledge Always choosing the scrawniest and weakest. An odd choice. He thought
"Besides 3 is just temporary until I can find a proper replacement The Ink may have helped but I've still got to figure out how to make them follow directions without having to be told so as he's merely a test subject.
I have no interest in her after they've served their part." He continued stating bluntly. Choosing to ignore Denewiahs Disgust and focusing on fixing its coat in an effort to calm himself from exploding into a blind rage at the accusation he's unable to do his job
"As for the topic on humanitys Ressurection with whatever's left of the metro and the Memverse. And Greatly thanks to Acht or as DJ Dedf1sh as Mx. Mizuta prefers " He responded professionally as he spoke sounding less Immature than he truly was
"And Agent 3's humble commitment or Anya Cardnial his given and preferred Name. Has helped find the perfect way to sanitize other Inkfish competently enough to do what they are asked of.
a common issue among all of them is they struggle to understand what they are asked of or preform the task properly either due to the ink concentration messing with their formation"
He continues going on about their research "And As for the Memverse that Ida and hoyzuki may have messed with the sanitized but this is the perfect opportunity to figure out how to perfect their behaviors while keeping them docile and willing to listen to orders"
"And as for better candidates we cannot ruin them before we perfect our method for that you need disposables" He shrugged "As is the process Failure after failure until you find the right combination of substances then you can use the right amount"
Aaah You must be? Your quite tall actually
*He looked at his varient who towered above him holding out a leathery hand
The Names Commander Clownfish aah well thats my Alias but my Name is Tartar! Pleasure to meet you! *The Sanitized octoling spoke with a raspy voice quite stiff
Commander Clownfish- quite the fitting alias considering the following circumstances- ended up standing there looking like a complete and utter fool, as Denewiah refused to take the handshake and instead crossed his arms. The behemoth was looking at them as if they’d just proudly declared that Inklings were the superior species on Earth. Which is, to say, he was looking at them with great amusement and bewilderment.
“… Ha. Ha ha.��� began the mirthful rumble in its ribcage. It rapidly progressed into a full-blown bellowing gale of laughter, one produced largely with its human vocals, and it doubled over with its hands clutching at where its stomach should be.
“AHAHAHAHAHAAAH! GEHEHGK- UHAHAH!!” What the hell’s so funny? Don’t bother trying to ask him. There’s bits of ink rippling and flying from its bells, resembling tears of laughter.
Finally, he settles down, enough to straighten himself out and slip comfortably back into his mechanical vocals. “Hahhh…
You claim… to be a commander, whose name is Tartar… and yet you are an Octoling…”
It sounded more and more bizarre to him the further he laid out the details, and he pressed his claws to his temple as he shook his head with another chuckle. “Absolute nonsense. Did sanitization scramble your brain, my friend?” it asked with a touch of mockery.
Ah. So Denewiah isn’t taking him seriously. At all.
What a shame.

intro post!! 💕💕
hi!! im max! this is my new blog i made to spam about fun stuff im interested in and also because my old blog wasn't good for my mental health.
im 15, i'm ok with adults interacting with my content but id prefer if you didnt follow because it makes me uncomfortable lolz. anyone from 14-17 can interact, follow, and dm me.
i go by any pronouns! i would prefer THEY 💜 but at the end of the day i don't really mind, i express myself in all kinds of ways so gender doesn't matter to me. that being said, my account is a safe space for lgbt+ people, (would be a bit hypocritical if it wasnt 💀), everyone is welcome here!!
im multifandom, i like a LOT of things, ill post about probably most of them, ill tag all of them because im not bothered to type them all out lmao.
ana/vent blogs are safe to interact, i don't report accounts like that i think everyone is entitled to their safe space. i think the culture of reporting and getting those accounts terminated is counterproductive in the grand scheme of things and is the online equivalent of when schools ignore bullying issues and say their school is a good place.
please don't interact if youre 13 or under (how'd you even get on here 💀), 18 or over, bigoted/mean, or if you unironically call things cringe!
PLEASEE FOLLOW ME if you like the things i like, are within my age group, are looking for friends, have brainrot/💜 humour or if you just feel like it idk i cant stop you lmao.
thanks for reading my yap sesh!! 💕💕

Yappathon EP 1: “As above so Below”
Today after seeing a dumb homophobic image of a low opacity Baphomet on a rainbow, I looked into the whole “as above so below” hand motion. After looking around and as someone who loves Hermeticism and worships Hermes, I decided to yap about how this hand motion is far from demonic views or Satanism to my trusty Tumblr blog.
Disclaimer: if you’re a Satanist coming across this props to you and no hate. Additionally if anyone has any facts or wants to correct me bc I addressed something wrong lmk.
The pose and the goat:
Tumblr media
So we all know Baphomet’s iconic pose and based off things like his looks and being allegedly worshipped by the Knights Templar (which I don’t know much abt tbh), he has or represents connections to Satanism (as far as I’m aware).
However, my main focus is on his hand motion, representing the phrase “as above so below” which originated, to my knowledge, from a Hermetic text called the Emerald Tablet (more on that later). It’s known that Levi, the sculptor of the iconic Baphomet pose, was both an occultist and member of Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, a secret society for Hermeticism practices in Great Britain in the 19th century. So he obviously is aware of this phrase and its origin, meaning, and included it because it aligns with many religious views.
Actual meaning:
Now to talk about its actual meaning. It’s similar to the Christian “on earth as it is in Heaven” quote, representing this link between the spiritual and physical suggesting the Divine live in tandem with our world. The meaning can be expanded to other Hermetic principles but the rough understanding is that it simply implies a link between us and the Divine.
As I mentioned, it originates from a Hermetic text. It obviously has connections to Hermeticism and nothing about it is genetically Satanic.
Tumblr media
Looking at the Magician tarot card, yes the one with the most connections and implications to Lord Hermes, he is hitting the iconic pose. This description of the card even shows how it is simply a connection between our world and the Divine.
Modern culture:
There’s also a movie I’d love to watch called As Above so Below and has to do with the Philosophers stone, an Alchemy thing, which in part is a Hermetic thing so I think that’s great for clearing up the meaning of this phrase.
Ghost the band and even uncannon yet official Welcome Home art depict this pose and use it to imply Satanic connotations. Not to hate on those medias but in that way it is arguable that yes technically the pose is Satanic because of popular belief and if some use it to convey Satanism, that indirectly connects it although it technically as you now hopefully know, has a much different meaning and background.
Tumblr media
Thank you for reading my rant and yapping sesh, don’t expect future episodes unless I have a topic I feel like info dumping about but I thought it was fitting to share here as much as I know and I found this very interesting hope you do too!

My askbox is ALWAYS open to opinion discussion and doodle requests! In fact, even discussion asks often receive a doodle for no reason at all!
• I DO COMMISSIONS!!! If you want me to draw your OC, I draw for Discord Nitro comms! This is because I do not have a means to accept real money at the moment! DM me if ever you find yourself interested, and then we can move the discussion to discord!

About my novels:
Witch in Training
• genre: fantasy, romance(?)
• poor summary: gods said screw it, cursed a witch who's reincarnated again and again, crazy emos with magic go ballistic
• do I love it? Absolutely. It's my precious baby <3! My most developed for one (despite the fact I stripped it down recently and am currently reworking the whole ass thing)
Teacups and Card
• genre: isekai, fantasy?
• summary: Alice in Wonderland inspired isekai
• do I love it? Uhm... My least developed tbh
Angelz with Broken Wingz
• genre: uhm mafia(?), crackfic without being a fanfic
• poor summary: gay angels (and demons) on crack fight with humans in mafia wars
• do I love it? erm... definitely one of my cringiest prolonged yap seshs, but yk what? Screw it, we ball!!
