“But what if Eri had one stalking him? Would he even last a day?”

rereading some of my older fics is so interesting

there's a lot i realize now that i can improve upon and hold back in other aspects, some parts i cringe a little while others im sitting here like "damn i did that? wow"

i wanna get back into writing and touch up on some drafts once i'm back from vacation!

please enjoy this famous buddha from Nazoin temple, Fukuoka, Japan in the meantime

when it comes to creating, writing is not my most favorite form of art, truth be told, simply bc i still feel like my skills are not up to par but i do quite enjoy it, albeit at my own pace

it's not a hobby i don't think i can completely drop, maybe just taking long breaks instead

How would Fakey react to meeting someone who was similar to a Peppino clone, but not actually a Peppino clone? Someone who has the same strange, squishy, tall body structure as him, but is not actually a Peppino clone like him.

hmmmmm..... strange, squishy, and tall you say? well not to worry, i've found a fellow over here who fits that description just perfectly! let's see how they get along.

... that's strange though.... i wonder why Fake seems a bit... agitated?

It's 2024 and Winx fans (who still actively keep up with the show) are still complaining that fairy forms have gone beyond Enchantix. This has been going on for 15 years where have you been

Posting it on main too, but here's my contribution to the @hoshinokaabi-secretsanta with a gift for @mastercrowned!! All of the given prompts were So Delightful, but in the end I had to go with drawing Morpho ordering a Kirby Burgie (or maybe 10) asdlkgjn

This whole event was a Delight to participate in! Had I more time and energy I would have Defo scribbled out more, but for Now pls enjoy my Favorite part of the image that Unfortunately got masked by the completed piece which is.

Honestly, big fat mood.

Tuvok & Janeway both strike me as people who insist they aren't rich* but then they bring up a summer house or something in casual conversation *note: I'm aware that Star Trek humans live in a post-scarcity world with no money but still. I can't help but see the truth and the truth is that Janeway's fridge had an ice dispenser.

A3! Usui Masumi - Translation [SR] Reminiscence of Blooming (1/2)

*Please read disclaimer on blog; default name set as Izumi

---

Masumi: (The bakery should still be open at this hour, so I’ll buy some curry bread for Director…)

Izumi: *Huff, huff*…

Masumi: —! …Director. Hand those bags to me.

Izumi: Woah, Masumi-kun! Are you on your way home from university? Welcome back.

Masumi: I’m back. I’m glad we got to meet each other before we reached the dorm… but for now, hand me your bags. They look heavy, so I’ll carry them.

Izumi: Thanks. Can I ask you to take this one and this one then?

Masumi: You can give them all to me.

Izumi: The rest are fine. You’ve helped me lots already. I’m glad I bumped into you, Masumi-kun.

Masumi: …Call me at moments like this. I’ll come dashing over right away.

Izumi: Got it. I’ll ask you for a favour when I can.

Masumi: Great.

Izumi: By the way, have you chosen a location to film for your video yet?

Masumi: Ah. The video for the introduction of Veludo Town, right… I haven’t decided yet, but I’m going to think it over soon.

Izumi: I see. I’m looking forward to which place you’re going to introduce.

Masumi: (Director’s looking forward to it… Let’s put some thought into it so I can make her happy.)

-pause-

Masumi: (…I came up with several places to introduce after that, but in the end, I haven’t settled on anything.) … (An arcade, huh… Itaru introduced one earlier on the MANKAI Channel, plus it’s not the kind of place I’d choose anyways—)

Itaru: Masumi?

Masumi: …God no.

Itaru: We just happened to bump into each other and I’m getting dragged. I see you’re looking at the arcade. Are you planning to go in or something?

Masumi: I didn’t mean to stare at it or anything.

Itaru: I see. But hey, seeing as we’re here, come join me for a bit. I’m gonna play some fighting games.

Masumi: Why me…

Itaru: It’s fine, it’s fine. Come on, hurry now.

Masumi: Don’t pull me.

-pause-

Game announcement: YOU WIN!

Itaru: Hell yeah! I feel super satisfied pulling off such a sick combo.

Masumi: Ugh…

Itaru: Ooh, someone looks mad. Wanna go again? I’ll take you on.

Masumi: …You’re on.

Itaru: That’s what I’m talking about.

Masumi: What a pain…

Itaru: I can’t heeear you.

Masumi: …

Itaru: By the way, you’re pretty into this fighting game too, huh?

Masumi: …I’m not into it. Don’t lump us together.

-pause-

Masumi: *Sigh*…

Izumi: Masumi-kun? What’s wrong? It looks like you got home a little late today.

Masumi: …I happened to run to Itaru on my way home from school and he made me go to the arcade with him. I’m drained. But I’m fine now. When I saw your face, all my fatigue blew away.

Izumi: Ahaha. I’m glad if you say so. In any case, I noticed you’ve started going to the arcade more often than before. Do you actually kind of like them?

Masumi: (…Director cares and notices the little things about me… I’m so happy.) I wouldn’t say I like them… but I think they’re good places to kill time. Winning in fighting games is surprisingly stress-relieving.

Izumi: Fufu, I see. It’s important to have places like that though, don’t you think? The fact that you can go there to kill time might make it a little more special than you think.

Masumi: That’s true… (…I wasn’t even considering it before. But maybe it wouldn’t be a bad place to introduce in my video.)

[is-the-fish-tank-big-enough]

The Fish Tank from Grey's Anatomy is Big Enough

we have a single big eye squirrelfish which need anywhere from 60-100g depending on your source, a couple of blue damsels which need about 30g at least, a yellow tang or two which need 90g, and a kole yellow eye tang - 60g. The stocking does tend to get changed up slightly (or maybe we're just seeing more fish? Who's to say) between episodes or seasons, including having a variety of different surgeon fish, a bird wrasse, etc. Using the filing boxes as a reference that puts the tank at minimum 60g however with how comfortable the fish look inside the tank, and certain up close shots lead me to believe it's actually much bigger--at least 100g. Ultimately this is an accurate representation of what fish truly need--space, filtration, hiding spots.

❣ | Hello! I love you! |

And I've missed you! I've been ill / in and out of care over the last week or so. But! I lived! And I've got a few more things to finish here so I'm going to try and do that between calls this week.

Very glad to see all of you again, much love ♡
