what is this?? gurt attempting to write a fanfic that's lived in her mind for like 3 years?? the night after inventory at her store wrapped up when all she REALLY wants to go is sleep for a whole week????
#anyway I'm attempting to write a thing. maybe to use for one of my YearoftheOTP fics? or maybe not#it is such a mess so far. it starts and then promptly restarts and also switches POV at least once dfksjhsdkfjh#BUT I am WRITING!! and it is not agony to do so!! hurrah!!#I will confide in tumblr that the secret I have learned for my writing to come easily and without agony and much grief in every sentence#is to be terrifically tired first#because then my perfectionism and imposter syndrome and obsessive inner editor are all too tired to care#and the writing gremlin is free to wreak havoc all over a shiny new word document#unfortunately it's not a very sustainable technique and I cannot use it regularly#and it produces writing that#while written quickly and freely and without much trouble#has to be HEAVILY edited before it makes ANY kind of sense#but that's actually ok bc the first draft needs only to exist and that is all#so I've got probably about 1/2-3/4 of this random pointless oneshot written up tonight and mayyybe I'll be able to finish it and edit it#and then share it with the 2 of y'all who will actually care enough and have the fandom context to read it X'D#gurt says stuff#writing woes#without the woes this time!

The Quest Continues...
(part 1- part 2)
#Fourfold Soul#<- That's the title of the project I've been working on!#I am very excited to finally show off the cowboy (gender redacted) I've been cooking in a slow boil!!! Yeehaw!#Yes this is the game project. YES I am commited to the bit of having the main character go through a long running pronoun-quest.#This character does not have a name so I cannot formally tag them...#(Okay. Technically they have an internal name for coding/scripting reasons...and I have a nickname for them.#But the important part of making a video game character you get to eventually name is that the name must come from *you*!)#The girl here is a npc so she has a temporary name. So I also cannot tag her. Hmm...#I have several FFS comics thumbnailed out. This one got made first because it's the funniest without context. Lore wise it's weak.#I would love to post the sexy clown but you have to wait just a few more comics.#Fun artist woes moment to share: This is the first time I've had to colour these characters traditionally. *That* was NOT fun.#Going from a specific digital colour palette to being at the whims of my limited colour choices in markers? Hell! On! Earth!#I might also be extra frustrated because this sure is 3x the length of what I usually do for comics! I spent a Whole Day on this.#Past me thought it was soooo funny and needed all the extra panels for pacing. I hate past me. That guy needs to be exploded.

#because I didn’t really like the pov of the first one but I don’t know where the second one should go so if you just. put em together#boom problem solved#poll#poll time#tumblr polls#my polls#polls#writing#writing poll#writing ideas#writing woes#writing stuff#please help#idk if I should. I might but Should I#I made a whole backstory for this character and then added a second backstory and I like that one way better so maybe I should just#get rid of the first one#like it wasn’t bad I guess but not what I’m looking for here#vanilla extract#please actually answer though I do genuinely want feedback#I mean I guess it’d be hard without context. uhh#originally 1 was a vr thing where the mc played games n stuff that surrounded her villain vr character#2 is just the vague idea of ‘hey what if someone died and was reincarnated as a system?’ but nothing more#the combo I’m thinking of will kinda be somewhere along the lines of Mc being the new system and the story surrounds the hero/villain stuff#with like gods and stuff being annoying assholes but at least having cool ideas sometimes#that’s all you’re getting for now though 😤 /lh

I want to get more involved with local orgs because frankly feeling powerless and watching the news is really making me physically ill so I want to do something but i really want a job or to volunteer where i can just put fliers up or package food/supplies because if i expend myself too much after work I might have another mental break and I really don’t want that .
#I’m just at a loss I want to not be a powerless bystander but at the same time just going to work and feeding and clothing myself is a#struggle to the point where I can’t do anything outside of working and going home and making sure my space is clean#even going out with friends is hard I can’t even watch shows or do things that make my life worth living .#gwon#I want a job with meaning and purpose that also pays my bills#and I don’t want this to come off as ‘woe is me’ type of shit but I’m just so tired of politicians I’m so tired of nothing changing I want#to change I want to help but I don’t know how to without significant detriment to myself at the moment

three days in the house of atreus ; act two
ORESTES: I was born here and can remember nothing of it. PYLADES: Did you expect to remember something? ORESTES: Someone’s face. The room I was meant to live in. The voice of my mother—the voice of my father. PYLADES: Let us find his tomb before we go deeper into this lair. ORESTES: I fear to see it. In my dreams, he is just behind a door. In my dreams, I see him still. PYLADES: What does his face look like? ORESTES: (Beat). Like mine.
finally writing tumblr's favorite cousin fuckers
#the oresteia#house of atreus#greek mythology#writeblr#scriptwriting#three days in the house of atreus#NO judgement about the cousin fucking fandom#just hilarious having spent so much time looking at family trees for this project#still trying to figure out how to convey the rotten work quote in act three without directly plagarizing anne carson lol#thinking about getting more self referential like in her antigonick#but also dont wanna be too much of an anne carson clone#ah the woes

When I'm on the verge of tears over a palette knife I think it's probably time to go to bed
#it's actually not about a palette knife. it's about not being able to find the palette knife#and the fact that my mum has probably either given or thrown it away#even though it's not hers. without asking me. because she doesn't respect me#like. idk how else to interpret that rn when it's a conversation we've had so many times#if it's gone i will buy a new one and she will pay for it and i will find thr#the most expensive one i can#woes of emily#i don't want to be so angry and upset over this it's stupid. but i am

me rn
#pom ponders#work woes#thinking about how my ex bestie is coming back to the store next week and i already want to cry#i know working with her is going to stress me out and it's going to affect my mood at work and at home#I'm going to have to put my guard up around people and be cold to them and i don't want to#but i can't trust anyone to not fall into her charms and i don’t have the energy to fight it#so i just have to accept that being at work is going to be hell and I'm going to be upset all the time#and i can't go anywhere else right now and i can't quir because i need the money to pay my bills and feed my cats#my mental health is gonna go down the toilet but who cares right#and I'm here screaming into the void because i can't rant to anyone else without sounding like a broken record#oh well i guess

☹️ kikis gonna get all her teeth yanked at the end of the month & dodgers got cavities…
#personal#pet tag#her mouth is too narrow for us to brush them & bc she was never trained for it she wont let us do it without biting us (she was a stray)#but my biggest shock aside from that was she has like 20 left in there ???#me & my siblings were under the impression she had like 6 or 7 left not like half her mouth 😭#we cant brush dodgers either since he was a stray & wouldnt allow us to even try to trian him for it 🗿#esp since he bite me p bad a few years back when we tried so 👎#the joys & woes of having two old dogs in the house loll#at least my parents are paying for it this time so i dont have to worry 🗿

Okay, I lied all those other times, but I am for real starting season 2 now
#the time is not perfect but it never will be#woes of emily#err hmm#i will tag everything#ofmeb#because i don't necessarily want things to show up in the main tag#i think i might have to tag as of/md s2 as well if it's anything overly spoilery incase some of y'all are still waiting#<- but without the slash in it#or maybe all as one word?

#okay small rant in the tags LOL#I have noticed an increasing number of people critique my first drafts in my videos#without me asking#and it’s gotten me thinking about critique etiquette & also#why writers feel the need to critique every piece of writing they see#especially when establishing themselves#which is relatable because I used to do that ALL the time#I was such a little shit!!! like insufferable!#and while the critiques in these comments don’t bother me because … I don’t care#what does bother me is this ideology that we are allowed to critique an unpublished work just because#someone has been vulnerable enough to share it#I made the decision to share my first drafts on my channel in December#because I think more writers need to see that writers who’ve been#writing for a long time like me#(10 years)#also make all the mistakes they do too#and that if they just keep practicing#one day they’ll also be writing for 10 years#anyway it’s hard to be a creator online sometimes lmao#not trying to be all woe is me about it but#I asked my audience if they like seeing first drafts#and everyone said yes I believe#so it’s important to me that people continue to see those drafts#but I would like to throw a can of tomato soup in the air#every time someone critiques those drafts when I haven’t asked#like i make actual videos where I ask people to weigh in#I’m not adverse to critique LMAO I love it! it’s fun!#but I am very VERY against critique that wasn’t consented to#writing is a very intimate thing#& it’s a skill to know when it’s your place to critique it or not…… I have more thoughts but anyway

if there is one thing i will never recover from with crestoria's crossover being gone for good, it's that we'll never ever know the story behind transgressor yuri.
if there are two things i will never recover from with crestoria's crossover being gone for good, it's that leon and aegis' loyal friendship will never ever return.
#GTF Crestoria Things#it is rare for leon to be on that kind of respect level with someone let alone risk his own reputation as a traitor to let someone escape#by which i mean in destiny he only ever rly did that for stahn bc stahn was the ONLY person screaming over leon's suffering#and BEGGING him to talk to him and not take on everything alone#so i'd be hard pressed to say he truly made that last second decision for any other reason#other than stahn getting through to him bc if stahn hadn't said anything nobody else was all that worried abt doing so#for him to do that for aegis even in a setting where he wasn't going to be in mortal peril#still risked him becoming a transgressor if anyone had had time to record that#i.e. local dude helps local sinned traitor escape and is by association also a sinner#and that may have affected the ease of his search in restoring stahn to human form#which stahn prob would not have minded but it would still increase the difficulty for leon's search all the same#with yuri forget it im going to be permanently S T R E S S E D that we will never know that story#and i don't think they'd play into the possessed-not-really-yuri thing again after doing it in asteria#and in rays it was only a cameo thing. i fully believe that was actual yuri bc it would fit into his canon-mixed-with-crestoria#so unless the devs for some reason decide to tell us what their plans were for yuri we will never know#and it's been too long now since cresty went down like do i have to write this shit myself#they robbed me of transgressor yuri meeting vicious too woe is me cresty team#im still so desperate for them to turn crestoria back on like pls it's not just my crops anymore it's me too im also dead#i know they won't turn it back on and heck all the data for it is probably long since byebye BUT#even if i enjoy the manga it's not the same without the crossover#i would kill for them to give us that game back it was my fave gacha ever ;;#i say that with the full bias of the fact that i obliterated everything with default leon and completely maxed him in every aspect#but also just the fact that i want cresty's crossover back s o f u c k i n g b a d

Why is apologizing and explaining urself n ur feelings without sounding like a sad, pathetic wet rat so difficult
#i hate hate hate that everything i say comes out like woe is me.... youre ever so kind for even looking in my direction.....#i love them. i dont want to be a drag to them. i dont want them to have to /put up/ with me#i dont want my presence in their thoughts be only a source of worry. or worse. annoyance at everything being the same all the time#it's already so so so hard putting up with everything while being at the center of all this fiasco#it can't be easy to have to stand at the sidelines and just watch#but how can i even began to explain it without sounding so fucking pitiful? so pathetic? without the knot in my throat eating me alive?#i feel like the worst kind of anchor#vent#personal
