Somedays it's Hot

CW: frantic writing, repeated phrases, could be unsettling.

it's hot. heat has always been nostalgic in all the wrong ways. it's hot so I cant move. it's hot and the covers fell off me, and I cant pick them up. there was that sound again: a hit. but not just another hit. a thousand things it could be none of them "just other." it's hot, and it smells off. it smells like freshly opened journals, like ink pen, except it's too much ink, too much journaling, too many feelings. I use to like the smell of journal paper, but now it's too hot, and I dont know when I can wash this feeling away. this sticky feeling. this sweaty feeling. this feeling of exposition. eyes, but they dry out, they never stop watching, even when I close my own, i still see them. watching. feeling. i can feel them up against my bare stomach, legs, arms, I can feel myself existing in my own skin, too much, too many, too hot. I thought I was doing fine but I cant remember two days ago. sometimes I feel like a painting. one that wont dry. colors forever swirling around, mixing together, marbling on a canvas some might call pretty; but I've stopped trying to find beauty in disasters.

#this has been in my drafts for months #poetry #spilled ink #emotions #original poetry #amature writer #freeverse poem #I realize how worrying this sounds but i wrote it so long ago so don't worry LMAO #sometimes j get possessed by my own emotions and write something 10x worse than what I'm feeling

And in the Other, a Flame

bright was the day. bright was your smile. bright was the fire set to the floor as you walked. bright as the shock when electricity sparked.

like a light, like a light, like a light.

your tone layered deep, a puzzle I couldn't piece, muffling the air as it filled all I could hear. circuiting the wires from my brain to my ear.

like a light, like a light, like a light.

emotions kept guarded. oh, what I would give, to turn back the clock and be burned by your heart. to set my charcoal mind on fire till we can't be told apart.

like a light, like a light, like a light.

but your walls held strong. our worlds kept cold. sometimes you still smile my way as you shout, but your voice strikes too harsh so the wonder blows out.

like a light, like a light, like a light.

((One Hand Holds a Lilly || And in the Other, a Flame))

One Hand Holds a Lilly

morning light, love me, like the world turns round- slowly and without pause.

be gentle with me. let me hold your hand, roaming these streets without cause.

a record is your voice, eyes of a dark wood forest, and, filling up the air, your laugh's sincere.

meadow flower, love me, but at a steady pace. let me fall like moons throughout the year.

((One Hand Holds a Lilly || And in the Other, a Flame))

Tips for Writing a Difficult Scene

Every writer inevitably gets to that scene that just doesn't want to work. It doesn't flow, no matter how hard you try. Well, here are some things to try to get out of that rut:

1. Change the weather

I know this doesn't sound like it'll make much of a difference, but trust me when I say it does.

Every single time I've tried this, it worked and the scene flowed magically.

2. Change the POV

If your book has multiple POV characters, it might be a good idea to switch the scene to another character's perspective.

9/10 times, this will make the scene flow better.

3. Start the scene earlier/later

Oftentimes, a scene just doesn't work because you're not starting in the right place.

Perhaps you're starting too late and giving too little context. Perhaps some description or character introspection is needed before you dive in.

Alternatively, you may be taking too long to get to the actual point of the scene. Would it help to dive straight into the action without much ado?

4. Write only the dialogue

If your scene involves dialogue, it can help immensely to write only the spoken words the first time round.

It's even better if you highlight different characters' speech in different colors.

Then, later on, you can go back and fill in the dialogue tags, description etc.

5. Fuck it and use a placeholder

If nothing works, it's time to move on.

Rather than perpetually getting stuck on that one scene, use a placeholder. Something like: [they escape somehow] or [big emotional talk].

And then continue with the draft.

This'll help you keep momentum and, maybe, make the scene easier to write later on once you have a better grasp on the plot and characters.

Trust me, I do this all the time.

It can take some practice to get past your Type A brain screaming at you, but it's worth it.

So, those are some things to try when a scene is being difficult. I hope that these tips help :)

DSMP One Shots Because I Can

Chapter one: they're being weird

Summary: Wilbur notices his brother's acting differently after he's revived. He doesn't trust it one bit.

Written by: @ verified_dumbass on ao3, @ fuckimsoft on tumblr

Almost right away, Wilbur noticed Tommy acting differently. Sure, the boy was still loud, and obnoxious, and loyal to a fault, but there was something else in him now. It shined through in the still moments when the fire in Tommy's eyes dimmed down, leaving them looking empty and glossed over. Wilbur knew he had been dead for quite some time, Tommy was bound to grow up a bit without him, but it was weird seeing the boy like this. Quiet. And Cautious. And- was Tommy always this skittish when he didn't have armor on?

Wilbur tried not to think about it.

"Don't.. do that," Tommy had told him one day. The words left a sour expression on Tommy's face, like he wasn't familiar with the way they came out of him mouth. "It makes me feel uncomfortable," he added in a rehearsed manner, "so, please stop."

Furrowing his brows, Wilbur glanced down at his fist which he had just used to lightly punch the younger's shoulder, then back up at the boy. "Tommy, what?"

Tommy deflated a little, shoving his hands in his sweatshirt's pockets. "Forget it. It's just something Puffy told me to say, it's stupid-"

"Puffy? The sheep?"

"I- yeah, I've been making appointments with her. For therapy." there was a slight pause until Tommy added, "bitch."

"Oh," Wilbur gave a half-smile, looking a little lost, "why do you need therapy?"

Tommy glared at the ground before mumbling, "just forget it," and walking towards Ranboo's shack.

Like Wilbur said, he was acting weird.

-----

Techno's differences weren't as noticeable, but they were there. You see, when Techno and Wilbur were younger, Techno didn't care much. About anything. The only thing he really showed fondness for was Phil, and maybe Wilbur on a good day. Techno was still the same distant bastard Wilbur knew him to be, but he did more things that seemed fairly.. nice. (almost affectionate.) He was still limited in who he was fond of, but the range of people had definitely grown.

There was still Phil.

There was also Steve.

And Carl.

And a bunch of dogs.

And.. Ranboo.

Why was Ranboo here? Why was Ranboo so close with Techno in a way Wilbur couldn't even get? It didn't seem very trustworthy, and obviously it was effecting Techno very negatively. That morning Wilbur woke up to Techno making breakfast for Ranboo. Breakfast! For Ranboo! Because apparently he can't just eat cake forever, whatever that means.

"Techno, are you feeling okay? Tommy can probably give you a therapy referral if you want."

"Heh?"

"You're just..." Wilbur glanced down at the omelette Techno was currently putting on a plate, "I don't think you're in your right mind."

Techno didn't look amused.

"And that's fine! You've been through a lot! It's okay if you need a little help to get back to you regular self. I just think talking things out would be better then... trying to take care of a kid. Who we really don't know anything about." Wilbur put his hand on Techno's shoulder, trying to be as gentle as possible.

"Wilbur, you're only staying here because Phil's letting you. You're barely even a guest. If you even think about crossing any lines, I won't hesitate to take away every life you've been given back, so maybe you should just stay out of the way," the piglin glared murderously into Wilburs eyes.

Wil pulled his hand away, annoyed that his brother wasn't listening to him. "Fine, have it your way."

"I will," and with that Techno stalked off towards Ranboo's shack.

-----

"Phil, I have a complaint."

Philza raised on eyebrow at Wilbur, silently telling him to continue.

"It's Techno. And Tommy. They're acting weird."

"Oh? How so?"

Wilbur pursed his lips, "they just are and I don't trust it. I think Ranboo has something to do with it. He's scheming."

And then, Phil had the audacity to laugh. This was no laughing matter!

"Phil, I'm serious! He's up to something, I can feel it."

"I can assure you, Ranboo is not scheming," the bird hybrid said, laughter dying down, "he's probably the least likely person to be scheming on this entire server."

"That's what he wants you to think."

"Sure, Wilbur. Have you ever thought that maybe Techno and Tommy have just grown up a bit?"

Wilbur scoffed, rolling his eyes. Does Phil not see what's obviously happening? Ranboo's manipulating their emotions! He's going to do.. something, Wilbur's sure. Something bad. He doesn't trust him.

"I don't trust him."

"I know, mate."
