If you're a writer take a look at your Mercury placement for inspiration 🖋️

1st House: Baby you're the inspiration! Dig deep into your identity and practice introspection for your work.

2nd House: What do you value? What will you work hard for, protect, collect? Use that for your inspiration! Maybe take inspiration from the material world or nature as well.

3rd House: Pay attention to your community and family (especially siblings, extended family, and family arguments or rivalry) for inspiration. Knowledge and research may be your best friend as a writer. Speak your mind and explore your emotions through writing, journaling, or blogging.

4th House: Family, home, your private life, or maybe your own inner world of coping, emotional sensitivity, and depth are your muse!

5th House: Having fun with your words and stories may be a good starting point! This is the house of creativity, joy, and celebration. Here creativity should stem from passion, discovery, and maybe romance. Be brave and even dramatic or ridiculous in how you write and how you get inspiration.

6th House: The house of routine, health, and work may not sound very inspiring but things like daily writing exercises or challenges may be very helpful for you. Time management and aiming to reach goals with your writing is going to be highly productive. Inspiration for you may come from ideas around altruism and what makes you feel like you're making a difference.

7th House: Take your inspiration from your relationships, fights, competition, rivalry, deals, and romance. Seek inspiration in others. Find a true muse.

8th House: The skeletons in your closet may be the best inspiration. Your fears, secrets, pain, depth, and vulnerability.

9th House: Your beliefs can be a major source for inspiration/creativity. Taking inspiration from other works, research, and knowledge may be your style too. Diving into a subject like history, sociology, psychology, religion, laws, journalism, politics, etc. can be very motivating.

10th House: Rely on your sense of purpose to give you inspiration. Reflecting on society or authority can give insight too.

11th House: Look to your friends for inspiration and friendship dynamics! Zooming out to collective trends and feelings can be a powerful tool as well for your writings. Tap into your aspirations and highest dreams too.

12th House: Using writing as a tool to explore your subconscious may be useful. Taking inspiration from your dreams, imagination, and even the darkest parts of you may be key for you as a writer.

How I thought writing would go: You're in control of your story. You are the puppet master! You control these characters, what they do, what they say, what they think. This world is yours, do as you please.

How it's going: my characters stopped listening to me, and now I'm 6485746 words into a plot that went off the rails on page 4.

do you torture the character you relate to most and recreate your own abuse in fiction to cope or were your needs and feelings acknowledged as a child

To authors who use the phrase "Neutral, like Switzerland"

By context you seem to mean neutral as in standing back from the conflict and not getting involved sort of peacefully and passively.

Switzerland didn't just stand back and not get involved in WWII. The Swiss said they wouldn't take a side and started shooting down EVERYONE. Anyone who came into their airspace, no matter which side they were on, got shot out of the sky. There was NOTHING peaceful about it.

So tldr:

Neutral like Switzerland =/= peacefully staying out of the fight

Neutral like Switzerland = Equal Opportunity Arseholes

fuck friends to lovers. hell, fuck enemies to lovers. fuck enemies to friends to lovers.

don’t get me wrong; they’re all amazing tropes and I’d read them any day of the week.

but you know what really gets me going?

cum-buddies to lovers.

fuck-buddies to lovers.

convenient mutual release to something much deeper.

like, there’s an undeniable attraction that they feel towards one another. something purely physical. they meet each other and immediately start sizing the other up in an attempt to speculate just how good they’d be in the sack. the tension simply builds the more they stare/imagine/talk/spend time together.

extra kudos if they find the other kind of intolerable/annoying, or have a myriad of pet peeves about the other.

because then they’re consistently telling themselves that the only thing that’s good about the other, the only reason they even hang around, is their body; their ability to please, and their ability to be an outlet for frustration. no matter how much the other annoys the piss out of them, or how much they can’t stand them, they’ll still seek out each others bodies because they’re the best damn lay they’ve ever had.

and it’s all just sex. just physical release —

until they find that, over time, all those annoying little things about the other seem to become just a little less annoying, bit by bit.

they find that they look for the other even when they aren’t horny or sexually pent up.

their conversations start to grow longer and more personal; hell, sometimes they simply talk just to talk. make each other laugh. hear the other’s opinions on certain things.

opinions that, weeks ago, they wouldn’t give two shits about.

they start caring, feeling two thirds protective and a quarter possessive of the other. always watching, always scoping, always trying to identify any threats to the other (or to the relationship they have with them).

the sex slowly morphs from a simple physical need to a connection — no more quickies or hard, fast strokes, no more hittin’ it from the back in any dark place they can find with eyes unconnected, completely emotionally distant from one another.

no, now it’s slower. hands exploring the other because they genuinely want to feel them, not because it simply makes the sex better. they’ll use their palms and fingers to map out and memorize every single contour of the other’s body, because when the moments over, they still want to feel the shape of the other against their skin.

they find that it’s far more comfortable to face one another now, far more stimulating to watch the other’s face contort with the pleasure they’re feeling. they find that they enjoy it, that the sight makes them feel absolutely breathless.

makes them feel stupid.

because how the hell had they never noticed the other was so ethereal?

they know each other’s bodies, quite literally inside and out, but now… now they crave more. they want to know the other’s soul, they want to know what makes them tick, they want to know them on all intimacy levels, and not just sexual.

again, extra kudos if when the whole thing started, they vehemently refused to kiss each other. too intimate for just sex.

and now, they find that they’re really, really curious about what the other tastes like, what their tongue feels like, overcome with the thought of ‘what will I feel if our lips meet?’

and eventually, when they simply can’t hold it back, they finally kiss, and everything just suddenly makes sense.

theyre desperate now, lungs turned breathless from the insistence that they keep their lips locked, pushing back against the other and willing them to feel everything through their embrace.

all the things they can’t seem to put into words.

the things they’re scared to put into words.

it’s deep, it’s strong, it’s overwhelming, crashing through them with the strength of the ocean breaking open a dam; a dam that they thought would never, ever even crack.

and certainly not for this person.

and if one (or both) start crying from the sheer emotion they feel for the other — omfg I can’t take it.

because sex hardly ever comes with no strings attached, and the journey traveled to discover that ugly truth is one that’s bumpy, winding, and not easy to endeavor.

fuck-buddies to lovers is the one trope, in my opinion, that is filled to the brim with everything that we love in fanfiction; smut, angst, fluff, miscommunication, hurt, comfort, jealousy, tears… and so much more.

thank you for coming to my ted talk <3

“I had everything. I was everything. Position, power, money, masculinity, the stimulus for submission. My men quivered before me, my scent crazed and confined the strongest of man into devotees. My presence was powerful, my mouth spoke nothing but truth fulfilled commands—victims could only pray I was feeling merciful. My hands evinced nothing but death; my fingers grabbed and tackled, shot mercilessly and took away God’s gift of breath. My heart was too dark to ever feel remorse, to ever indorse morality; to ever feel.

It was not until she had entered my life,—she who had the lasting impact of an interjecting knife, for whom I had prayed, to the God i hated, to be my rightful wife—, she had ignored me, she had frowned and turned away, that I had found myself weaker than a pathetic kolibri. I could not avail an inch of my hand forward, afraid she’d disapprove henceforward. I couldn’t raise my voice, for one flinch from her would drive me to raise my carnage upon my own being; put an end to my corrupt destroys. After her, is when I learned what a man really is.”

— Tomie Yamazaki, “Chaos x Kindness”, 2024.

Notes

1. Stimulus: trigger, to evoke something. 2. Envinced: reveal the presence of. 3. Indorse: approve or support. 4. Interjecting: interrupt. 5. Kolibri: a very weak gun. 6. Avail: do; attempt. 7. Henceforward: from this/that time on. 8. Carnage: the killing of a large number of people.

-The Generation Of Expression-

Demonstrations, proclamations

We are the generation of expression

Our perspectives often differ

Yet we all oppose against oppression

This is the era of verbalisation

We are each entrusted with free choice

You too, desire to make a change

But are petrified of using your voice.
