writing patterns (tag game)
rules: list the first line of your last 10 (posted) fics and see if there's a pattern!
tagged by @gittetj - Oh boy, calling me out here, huh?
So, I barely have any fic's posted except for one that I've silently discontinued cause it's no longer a fan-fic anymore. So enjoy tidbits from other stories that are cooking in the background.
Rainy Season (Synopsis: Teruki babysits a ghost girl and shenanigans happen.)
Chapter 0/Prologue: The weatherman said it was supposed to be raining today.
Ch. 1: “Hey Kageyama-kun, how much farther?”
Ch. 2: The spring semester had reached its halfway mark, students buzzing with plans for the upcoming weekend.
Ch. 3: Mirror... Knives... Hair... Hands…. Mirror, knives, hair, hands. Mirrorkniveshairhandsmirror-
Ch. 4: Shimizu remained quiet throughout the last class period, head low and feet silently swaying off the edge of the window sill.
Abyssal Song (Synopsis: A story if Frisk was able to save everyone else but themselves, only to come back alive as a skeleton???)
Chapter 0/Prologue: You’ve lost track of how many resets it’s been.
Ch. 1: A door closes in the dark office, the quiet click of the switch brings a slow dull glow to the room.
Ch. 2: “What do you mean we aren’t going?!”
Ch. 3: The pitch void is comforting.
Dry Spell (Synopsis: A group of kids try to figure out why their buddy can't be seen by ghost and vise versa.)
Ch. 1: “MORI!” Nobu was greeted with a slap from a tree branch as he and his partner rushed onward.
If I'm going to be honest, I think I start pretty random. A good balance of straight up action and the slow start of setting up the scene. That and I present a question/statement/exclamation to another character in the scene.
As for tagging someone, I got nothing really. So if you feel like doing this just tag me! I would love to see what you guys are writing!

Tell me about 5, 25, and 27 from those weird writer questions!
AH! Hello! Hi! Howdy!~ My good friend, Gitte. :D This is going to be long read so read at your own leisure.~ For anyone that wants to try their hand at it, here is a link to the post!
5. Do you have any writing superstitions? What are they and why are they 100% true? Now, I don't know if it's really called a superstition but it's something that happens every. single. time. and you know it too. Chapter 3, there is something about trying to complete that third chapter that is the be-all-end-all of my stories. If I can't get my shit together I nearly give up. I have to take a year or more hiatus on the thing. I work on other stories that end up stopping on that fucking chapter. I can work on other chapters before or after it but god damn CHAPTER THREE. It's my bane of existence. I don't know if it's because it's the critical step after building up everything from the prologue, chapter one and chapter two, that if I can't properly make the characters move from this chapter I'm doomed.
25. What is a weird, hyper-specific detail you know about one of your characters that is completely irrelevant to the story? Oh my dear friend, you have NO IDEA how any useless details I have about my characters. It's like 80% of my day dreams is thinking of all the little things my characters do and it helps me create more realistic personalities this way. ANYWAYS! Here are a few because I just love all my children characters so much. - Mori likes to connect the dot's on Nobu's freckles, creating little constellations on his skin. He does it with washable marker so it doesn't stay for long but when he is really bored he'll start doing it without thinking about it. Nobu doesn't mind it too much as long as he isn't working on anything. Mori's favorite constellations are a little heart and lopsided dog. -Rota sticks out her tongue when she is very concentrated. She doesn't know where she picked up the habit but if she is focused hard enough she has a little "cat blep". It's not often people catch her doing it but most find it endearing such a serious girl can look so childlike.
-Alyss/Frisk is always moving some part of their hand or feet. They picked up tapping their feet from Cinnamon, making them look like a rabbit as well. Mostly can be caught shaking a pen back and forth between their fingers, even twirling it if they get really lost in thought. If they are idle for too long while standing they start to shift in place. Think early 90's to 00's Sonic animations but not as sassy, haha.
27. Who is the most stressful character you’ve ever written? Why?
I think, at this point, it has to be Sans. Sans fucking Undertale. I can do light-hearted, wholesome characters. I can do wacky silly characters. I can do super serious and stoic characters. I can do cocky rival/friend characters. And I can do your run-of-the-mill good or bad guy. But give me a character like Sans Undertale and I'm nearly at a lost. I can't do witty. I can't do clever funny. I can't do the thinly-veiled threats like he does and keep it to where only the person he is talking to understands what's going on. It comes off as too try-hard and cringe-y to me. When I try to write Sans upset and mad it's very expressive when in fact I know he'll be damn put together and still making those stupid puns. I'm to honest with how I write my characters when Sans is in fact someone that keeps a whole lot to himself. He has to be near the breaking point to even crack his façade. Anyways, Sans is hard to write as much as I enjoy his character trope so much.

Hello! I just wanted to let you know that your fic Rainy Season is one of my all time favorite MP100 fics I've ever read. Thank you so much for making it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
WELL I WAS NOT PREPARED TO RECEIVE THIS BEFORE I GO TO WORK TOMORROW.
I'm, uh, still taking a moment to recover from that, haha. Though, thank you, thank you, thank you. I'm glad you like it and I'm still stunned it's one of your top faves! That's truly a high honor and I'm so humble to receive that.
TD;DR below!
I feel like I owe an explanation for it's 5 year hiatus and I can go on and on as to why but simply put: the side characters I created for the fic stole my heart and I want to make them their own story with no ties to mp100 so they get the attention they deserve. It's a terrible habit of mine and I have 5 other projects that all have the same trend. Starts off as fan-fic and ends up having an original story born from it. (It's a curse really. )
That said, and I don't want to end this all on a bitter note, but I don't have plans on continuing it. I'm still learning to write and be a better writer between all the things that come with being an adult with a 40+ hour week job. But when I receive these comments it does help me realize that there are people out there that still enjoy it, even in it's incomplete state.
So, I'll say it again. Thank you for your comment. It really, really helps me and reminds me why I loved posting content. I struggle every year to post when my perfectionism gets the better of me but this helps.
Enough rambling! I hope you have a lovely day and take it easy!

When they announced that Pokémon and Splatoon were going to collabrate on a splatfest, my hands moved on their own.

Gosh, it’s seriously been three years since I last publicly posted my artwork. Goodness me. Well, I’m certainly going to be getting better about it... hopefully. I think what I’ll do is post batches of artwork here while in-progress stuff with be frequently added to my twitter. 
  Anyways, I’ve been getting into Submas and Splatoon lately. Honestly not the best at shooters alone but maybe after some practice I’ll be. I just love the art style so much and the possibilities this creates. *Chiefs kiss*
TL;DR below if y’all are interested in learning more!~
This Submas x Splatoon is a fun side project to my main project involving Pokémon; Legends Arceus, PLA. And to clarify I'm not combining PLA with Splatoon. It’s not going to have inklings, octolings, and all that other good stuff with PLA. However interesting that might be.  The main project a massive 20-30 chapter story with my player character/OC, Rota! Which is why they are included here. 
Rota Species: Octoling Pronouns: She/They Unique traits/features: Blind in right eye (the white eye for clarification) Relations: Ingo (adoptive father), Emmet (adoptive uncle)
Rota is a very serious but considerate character. She suffers the same problems like Ingo with having a very unexpressive face that appears to be mostly neutral and/or disinterested. However as she grows more comfortable or at worse overwhelmed, those emotions actually come out. In the Splatoon universe she serves as the middle grounds between Ingo and Emmet, her opinion on matters will determine what the other two decide on. It’s a very serious job which fits her just right. Even though she has a tendency to favor Ingo’s side being her adopted father and all. Though she still has a lot to learn as a to-be conductor, don’t let it fool you of how skilled she it in battle. In fact, she can take on both Ingo and Emmet if need be and hold her own just fine. Sometimes when none of them can agree on anything, they usually battle it out. And that is a sight to behold.
I’ve actually have a mix-shift story in my head of how Splatoon Ingo, Emmet, and Rota all met up together but I’m already working on 5 different projects at once. Bare with me please. OTL Perhaps I’ll try making mini comic series or picture with mini chapter with it. I dunno. If people find this interesting, it’ll definitely encourage me to post more. If not then I’ll just enjoy this all to myself. ^v^

I don’t post for months and the first thing I get motivated to finish is from a game I’m super fond of but never completed. (._.;)

These pictures have been gathering dust in my folders, it’s about time I posted something. 
I haven’t given up on Rainy Season, I swear. Chapter 5 is just full of small corrections. It’s that I’ve been hitting more road blocks than I’ve ever anticipated.
And it doesn’t help that writing isn’t my forte.

I can’t be the first one to do this and yet I’ve never seen it done before.
(Backgrounds taken from the show. There’s no way I have time to draw all that.)

MP100 Psychic Puzzle: Tome as the Dormouse
I was disappointed in the lack of other characters so I thought I would fix that and put my own take on it.

The future of this blog in the wake of this mess
First and for most, regardless of what happens, this blog will stay up and running until further notice.
Now for those that solely follow me for my art, I will still post here unless tumblr decides its had enough of this little blogger.
If you plan on moving to another platform and still want to follow me. I’m on:
-Twitter
-Instagram
-Twitch
-DeviantArt
My user name is: ArtificeBlade
I suggest following twitter for updates if I start posting artwork on the sites you most frequent to. Hell give me suggestions of where to go and I’ll see what I can do.
Honestly, I’m tired.
Things are getting rough on my end and the last thing I need to see is people abandoning ship the moment they hear bad news and just don’t want to wait to see how it plays out.
Expect this post to be reblogged for the days to come. You can blacklist the post with the tag #tumblrmove
Take it easy everyone.

When @gittetj told me her idea of what Shou’s hamster could be like, so many wonderful ideas popped in my head at once I didn’t know where to start. In the end I settled on what made me laugh the most.
How can you not to love this cute little lady that’s ready to tear off anyone’s hand that isn’t Shou’s?

Rainy Season: Chapter Four
Downpour
“Shimizu remained quiet throughout the last class period, head low and feet silently swaying off the edge of the window sill. Her pencil laid untouched on Teru’s desk. A puddle had formed beneath their feet. Yukio’s presence in front of Teru was festering and dark like the brewing clouds outside. The AC kicked in at the worst time, leaving Teru wishing he had a new set of clothes. The icy water was trailing down his back.
The bell couldn’t have rung any sooner. Yukio quickly shot up from his desk and shoved his way out the door with his bag in hand. Teru made no effort to follow, taking his time to pack his things and urge Shimizu to get up. She briefly looked up at him before lowering her head in a nod, the curtain of her black hair hiding most of her face.”
This chapter is long overdue but it’s finally here! I can’t guarantee the next one will be coming out any time soon  but I’m going to try my darnest to get somewhere with it.

It’s a little rushed but I’m pleased with how it came out! Plus I’ve been meaning to draw more buff girls so I hope you don’t mind that I’ve experimented a little with her. (^◇^;)
