#but the short answer is i want to finish

[throwaway-yandere]

You ever wonder how short human lives are? They have the average life span of maybe a pet to most elves, won't they? Or even less. Looking back, isn't it hard to imagine how hard it must be to move on from someone who only lives for a sliver of your own lifespan?

😋 anon

😋 if this is your attempt to making Elf!Haitham the theme of the blog I ain't doing it HAHAHAHAHAHA

#if you want MY serious answer- then of course. #I've always known how short people's lives are- and for a long time- I was unaffected when loved ones die. There was an “eeasy #step by step process for me before. I was and kind of still am welcoming of death. #and when that one person I cared for was ill- I was also quick to acknowledge that it's probably their time #throughout their last remaining days I just waited that maybe when it happens- they can stopped being tubed- #stop suffering. #When my grandfather passed away- I was more grimly reminded that life is truly short #but instead of that quiet “I told you so. I knew he would pass soon.”— what I felt was pure anguish #To pat your grandfather's head one last time- devoid of life as he laid still #That midnight remains clear as day to me. Life is short. I knew that since the beginning. #I didn't shed as much tears as I had when a friend my age had passed on— because I was comforted with the thought that #they had passed months before the pandemic began— and Covid was seemingly a more painful fate #So yes. #I know how hard it is like to move on from someone who does not share your life span. Who had lived longer than you have and will leave #faster than you— despite your neverending comments about ending it all once you've finished your tertiary education #that you spout since childhood. #So. Well. Yeah!!! I know what it's like HAHAHAH. it's S H I T.

I can’t stand people who shit on introverts.

#like being an introvert isn’t a bad thing it’s just a personality trait #the other day I had a customer criticize me bc I wasn’t being cheerful and outgoing in her words #even tho I smiled at her and her husband and was kind to them the whole time #or the other day I was in an Uber and I greeted the Uber driver and all that #and he tried to strike up a conversation #I gave him short and simple answers to let him know that I was not interested in talking #I was never rude to him however #once he finished talking I put in my earbuds at the highest god damn volume and he was STILL trying to talk to me #like bro #p sure when someone has their headphones on it means they don’t want to be bothered #at the end he was like lol I hope I didn’t talk your ears off #and I kindly told him that I was an introvert and I prefer to not talk a lot #and he goes onto imply how being an introvert is a bad thing #and how introverts let people walk all over them or some shit #being an introvert doesn’t mean that you’re a shy and meek and shriveling hermit #it just means you don’t like talking a lot god damn #I have explain this to grown ass adults like they’re elementary schoolers #some people like hot dogs and some people like hamburgers #it doesn’t make one or the other in the wrong #it’s just preferences #srry for the rant #rant #vent #vent post #tw vent #introvert #introversion

Good news! The intense drive to write All The Stories Ever has mellowed into the much less stressful desire to focus on writing one or two Good Stories That I Actually Want To Write.

(Choosing which ideas to focus on is an underrated writing skill that I continually need to practice).

#adventures in writing #(nice side effect of the writing ask game is that it satisfied the craving to write and post something creative) #(so i've stopped brainstorming ideas just to have something Easy to Write) #(and can step back to figure out which ones i actually want to spend time writing) #(and which are the most valuable to have as a finished product) #(fortunately the goose girl short is a top contender) #(thanks to the ask answer reminding me why i loved the idea)

[encrucijada]

good luck with your commission!!! if you don't mind me asking, which wips are asking for braintime (your wips are so cool) 👀👀

shucks jude you're so nice 💖💖 thank you for the words of encouragement! here are the wips wrestling for dominance in my brain

the walk of eurydice: woke up from its dormant stage with a Vengeance. a retelling of orpheus and eurydice where orpheus (named dylan) is a boy from the 80s who's been dead for around 23 years, and eurydice (named thea) is an early 00s girl majoring in classics and entirely dedicated to ballet. the story follows thea as she tries to find a way to bring dylan back to life. reincarnation plot with ghost romance! need i say more

evergreen lung: i should be working on u baby. more a matter of me not being able to prioritise than anything. follows ezra, a girl who died in the local forest and she returns home, alive again, to find out a considerable amount of time has passed. a huge metaphor on being aroace told through being possessed by a sentient forest. there's a radio station and qpr's galore

disasters to sleep through: i should also be working on u baby. follows marilú, a lighthouse keeper, who has to look after her niece while her sister gets a messy divorce. with elements of eldritch and spatial horror, a story of healing your inner child and loving something so much you accidentally cause it harm.

haze dogs: i finally!!! found a good opener for this!!! connor becomes the sacrificial victim of her town haunted by eldritch animals after it is revealed she doesn't die when she's killed. this starts out a battle for power in the formation of cults with her as the divine figure. a story where a girl slowly becomes a monster and is pushed over the edge to bloody consequences.

to feast just like royals: i started writing for this because Why Not and now i... wanna continue. i don't have time for this And Yet. the story of the princess in the tower guarded by a dragon, except the dragon took in the princess gladly and raised her as her own daughter. but come the princess' 15th birthday knights and princes arrive to try and win her hand in marriage, and the princess has no interest in romance at all.

anything at all with the piedad/adam verse: aka the titan generals or greek tragedy! i have to finish pointed north but this is more a case of them always being in my head and me wanting to out them on paper because brrr

hideout: i sorta decided i want to write this in its entirety and post it this year?? i doubt it'll happen but well. this is a rewrite of my first serious attempt at a book, something for my 14yo self. follows a group of kids with control over the elements locked away in an artificial forest (prison), their life turned upside down when a newcomer appears and reveals she has something they want: a way out.

you might say "wow that's a lot" and you're right 😭 it is. that's the problem

I take that back, Exharme is super cool. He gave us medicine for our dad and asked us to kill Sorsley bc he was corrupt then left. He gave us meds in exchange for killing a man I wanted dead anyway! How cool :)

Nice.

#im making huge huge changes in my life and i think the next logical step would be to cut off jamie. ive already been ghosting him but thats #just me avoiding the problem. i just like. it feels fucked to be like hey i told you i was ok with what you did but i Changed my mind #i just think like. i have next to no contact with him and i feel fucking fantastic. we talk like every couple months on the rare occurrence #he can text and then i answer in vague short sentences and ghost. and now that i finally have firm boundaries with him and havent engaged #with him sexually its like. i feel like basically all my ties are cut. and i feel like im ready to let go for the first time. like ive #always felt like i just wasnt ready but now i like i Am ready its just a matter of like. doing it. thats difficult. even though i know hell #accept it because hes matured. and like. idk. i think its fine like this #and idk i think its fine like this. being the absolute barest form of acquaintances. i cannot stress how little we interact and how little #affect he has on my life at this point outside of what happened in the past. like i am in a good place he is 99% cut off i just need to do #the last bit. but like also fuck. you know. its hard to kinda finish it off. and its also like ooh it would hurt his feelings but now i #fucking. dont care lol. after everything. with blue i realize every day just how much more respected i feel and less gross and shitty #even with being jamies friend which we never were because whenever i was single we were sexual. i just felt bad. i never wanted to fuck #either. and he would say he loved me and id be like hahaha yeahhhh and now that ive finally drawn that boundary and said he cant do that #anymore i feel so much lighter and i just feel so happy and safe with blue in a way ive never felt with jamie and its like. im almost there #i feel like i might be able to cut him off by the end of the year. and thats crazy to me. i just also have a lot of like shit to unpack #in general too also. with what he did. and i just have a lot. but i feel like im progressing

[burning-academia-if]

hi!! i've only discovered your IF a few days ago and oh my gosh this concept is just so right up my alley, so *chef's kiss* perfect to my taste (not to mention its a guilty pleasure of mine) but surprisingly as i recall, i haven't quite played a game with a concept like this yet which is exactly why im so excited your releases soon!! (your intros are sooooo intriguing like i cant help myself reeling with anticipation to meet these characters in the actual game. im readying myself for rook, lars, and ??? in that specific order HAHAHA)

anyways, idk if this has been asked yet but are you considering poly routes? ive been thinking abt mc x rook x lars just full of angsty drama and im willing to live for it! (⁠◕⁠ᴗ⁠◕⁠✿⁠)

Ahsjskd thank you!! It's only the prologue releasing in October so people will have a better gauge about if it's for them or not but I hope you enjoy!

As for poly routes that is a super tentative maybe. Mostly because 6ros among 4 paths means I'm technically writing 24 routes and that's a lot LOL and then you add the solo routes on top of it and that's like 28 routes in total.

That said maybe down the line I'll decide I'm already writing a behemoth anyway so what's a couple poly routes? I have a few ideas for some in certain paths but again it's a super tentative maybe and I don't want to get anyone's hopes up!

#em answers #BA: structure #kinda?? #also didn't want to make this long but another point is #I do want to finish this LOL #and trying to limit/scale back scope is super useful in doing that #I've made a couple of visual novels so far and written idk how many novels and short stories and so I know myself #and know that cutting things is more desirable then adding things in that you're not overworking yourself #idk if that's as much as a mindset in the IF side of things but coming from game deving yeah #finishing and avoiding overworking myself is key

Imagine its bring your family member/s to school day at ik's school, and she just SHOWS UP WITH THESE 8 FOOT MEN, WITH ONE OF THEM AT LEAST 9 FEET.

HAHAHAHAHHAHA

imagine being one of ik's teachers. you call her name and wait a moment as the classroom door opens. your student comes in first. ok, that's normal. then you hear a thunk and an 'ow' and ik turns around, holds out her hand, and pulls in a man that you think might be taller than two regular men stacked on top of each other

#i... posted this before i'd actually finished writing it #anyway i've edited it now to include the thing i wanted to say lol #idk how common this is anywhere else so i'll explain it real wuick #in the uk you get things called parent's evenings where your parents/guardians come in to speak to the teachers to hear how you're doing #in secondary (at least in the one where i work sometimes) the kids have like individual short little meetings for each subject teacher #well not all of them but generally at least the core subjects + whatever subject they're planning to go into in future #ik brings a different demon to each subject teacher #answering asks #sunlightocean

Huntlow?

Star/Tom/Marco?

okay I'm answering this weeks later because I wanted to hijack your ask for my soapboxing sorry <3

now, lowhunt. I'm afraid the ask will already put this in the ship search but I'll just say this backwards term instead because it's not completely positive. I started shipping lowhunt after zeno (the voice actor for hunter) accidentally kind of leaked that they may become a thing before their first interaction, and I thought the oddity of it at the time was very endearing. nobody had thought of it before beyond niche shippers, and it kind of sounded cute. hunter was also my blorbo of the time period.

I'm very neutral on the ship now and that comes from two main reasons; one is the fanbase oversaturation, which is really just exacerbated by my second reason of the show itself not doing them any actual justice.

they just aren't given any actual interactions and more importantly dialogue in the show! I suppose they do interact, but it's always mute and short - willow isn't there or even involed in hunter's main plot beats so it gives me very little to believe in in regards to their chemistry. they didn't even let her say anything to hunter after he died. the confusing bit is that I highly suspect lowhunt was added to the plot post shortening, so it's hard to excuse the writers for being time-pressed when this was seemingly a factor within their control. my definitely mean but completely honest opinion is that lowhunt is so popular because fandom has The Urge to ship the white boy for various reasons. I think there's a lot of better things in the show and it kind of saddens me to see places like twitter devoid of most discussion that isn't about them.

that being said I appreciate the concept of hunter becoming a palisman carver and willow restoring the forests of palistrom wood so much, I wish they were given more things like that in the actual timespan of the show

#i never finished star so not answering the second one here but in short: would have been epic probably #the show has never treated willow well and will probably not ever at this point and thats going to extend to huntlow unfortunately #in my mind i enjoy it but in actuality i dont #as usual i have the complex of 'im the only one right about this and everyone else is wrong' i guess #the owl house #hunter toh #willow park #long post #im hiding this deep in the tags but honestly i think a lot of people are uhh attracted to hunter and want to imagine him in a relationship #ive seen a lot of oddly sexualized art of him and its almost always with willow - or art where he looks significantly older and manlier

Love a two-for-one deal. Some "Ata Rin"?

WIP Wednesday Game

Thanks so much for asking! I've made some progress in Ata Ryn, and here are your additional sentences from immortal witch riding hood!

For a moment, with the woman’s – with Fay’s – hands in yours, and with those bright and brilliant blue eyes focused so completely on you, and with her crouched down so that you looked down on her, instead of the other way around – for a moment, you forget your own name, forget how to even speak.  You won’t mention this to your mama later, but sometimes she’ll mention how being around Fay strikes her wordless, mumbles under her breath how it must be a spell the witch woman casts over her.

But you know better than that even now, even as young as you are; the only spell Fay casts to keep you from speaking is her complete and utter focus on you.

Fay’s encouraging, loving gaze never leaves you – not as you stand silent, not as you stumble over words, not as you finally, breathless, force your name through your young lips.  Then her smile softens, and she squeezes your hands.  “It’s a pleasure to meet you, my love.”

Your cheeks flush a bright scarlet, and even at five years old, your gaze drops away.  “Pleasure to meet you, too, Miss Fay.”

“Oh, no Miss, dear,” Fay says as she drops your hands and straightens back up.  “Just Fay.”  She brushes her fluffy tooth white hair back behind one ear and then tilts her head to one side.  “Why don’t you come inside, dear?  Let me feed you something before you head back.  Wouldn’t want any wolves to find you hungry, would we?”

At the mention of wolves, your eyes grow large, and your hand grows tight on the little stick you’ve called a sword but that now feels like nothing more than the stick it is.  “Wolves?” you echo, and you fight the urge to stare back at the woods, at the path you’ll have to walk back alone.

Fay reaches down, squeezes your shoulder.  “Don’t worry, my child,” she says.  “I’ll make sure nothing harms you.”  Then she winks at you the same way you like to wink at your mama when you want her to believe you, the way you like to wink at your mama when she never does.  Unlike your mama, though, you decide to trust Fay, and you follow her into her cottage.

#musings #h i raeth #bandit writes fic #bandit answers questions #wip wednesday writing game #wip wednesday game #witch hood fic #read as: i got the first three sentences and then felt like that was too short and wanted to have more to give you #and then just you know #finished the first chapter whoops #ta da!

[augustinewrites]

“itadori, please respect his personal space—”

“kugisaki! stop hitting him—”

“megumi, don’t you dare bring that elephant out in my classroom—”

peace and quiet is short-lived whenever the first years are around.

you manage to quiet them down with the threat of assigning an essay, allowing you a moment’s respite to massage your temples and lean back in your seat, glancing at your phone to check just how many minutes you have left with them.

a notification pops up as you do, bringing on a whole new headache.

[satoru]: send nudes?

you quickly turn your phone over so it’s screen-down, face burning as you look around to make sure no one had seen.

peace and quiet is also short-lived whenever satoru calls out sick. because the strongest sorcerer of your time…currently has a cold.

he is, predictably, very dramatic whenever he’s sick. a mild fever means he puts himself on bedrest. a sore throat means he needs to be spoon fed a very specific homemade soup.

but the worst…oh, the worst is when he has a cold.

when satoru’s sinuses are clogged, he’s an absolute menace to deal with. his sneezes shake the apartment and his whines about sinus pressure are all you hear at the dinner table.

luckily, the students have resorted to quietly bothering each other, so you slowly turn your phone back around to deal with the man child who is likely littering the living room floor with tissues.

he’s stuck at home, which means he’s got nothing to do but annoy you.

[satoru]: haha jk

[satoru]: unless…?

huffing, you quickly type back a response.

[you]: NOT funny. i’m at work.

[satoru]: so what you’re saying is you’ll send them during lunch right ;)

“miss!” itadori shouts, his arm raised. “can fushiguro come to the arcade with us after class?”

“of course,” you say. “but please don’t forget to finish your essays on cursed technique origins. it’s due on monday.”

yuuji’s practically bouncing in his seat as he grabs megumi’s arm. hear that, fushiguro? you hear as you pick up your phone. your mom said yes!

megumi, who usually comes home on the weekends, still looks to you for approval. you assure him with a small nod and smile.

sometimes you just want to wrap him up in your arms and never let go. he may have been another couple’s blessing, but ultimately he’s yours and gojo’s pride and joy. possibly the only one you have left, as it stands.

thought you’re a little sad that he won’t be home for dinner tonight, you remind yourself that he’s growing up. for as long as you’ve known him, he’s always been a sort of lone wolf. but a lone wolf is still a wolf, and a wolf needs a pack.

he’s finally found friends he’s comfortable with, and it’s good that he wants to spend time with them and vice versa.

your phone buzzes insistently in your hand.

[satoru]: pleeeeeaaaase?

[satoru]: i think it’ll really help with my recovery…

[satoru]: if this cold kills me the last thing i want to see is a picture of you

oh, that’s actually kind of—

[satoru]: nude, preferably

maybe it’s a good thing megumi won’t be home tonight. you don’t need any witnesses to the crime you’re about to commit.

[you]: what’ll help with your recovery is a visit to the infirmary.

there’s a short pause, then you watch the little bubble appear and disappear about six times.

[satoru]: shit

[satoru]: is this a scene?

you roll your eyes, waving at the kids as they head out to catch the train.

[you]: i hate you

he doesn’t answer, so you get up to hurry over to your office, shutting and locking the door behind you.

you wait a moment, opening the camera on your phone as you do so.

once the sound of footsteps echoing through the hall disappears, you start unbuttoning the first few buttons of your shirt—

you scream when a loud sneeze startles you, satoru suddenly appearing at your side.

he doesn’t miss a beat, plucking a tissue from your desk and blowing his nose loudly. he throws it in the general direction of the bin before slapping his palm onto your desk.

you can tell he’s attempting to be some sort of seductive, but it’s dampened bu the way he sniffles loudly, his face a little red.

“hello, doctor,” he says, a lazy grin spread across his face. “i’m here for my physical.”

“honey,” you laugh, gently cupping the sides of his face. “you need to rest.”

“but ‘m not tired,” he pouts, leaning in to nose at your neck. his skin is warm against yours, much too warm for your liking.

you tangle your fingers in his hair, scratching lightly at his scalp. “since i’m your doctor, i’m prescribing a nap.”

“a nap does sound kind of nice…”

he gets up, taking your hand and dragging you over to the couch with him. he locks you within his embrace, sighing contentedly as he presses you to his chest.

“wait, satoru i have to supervise the second years’ training—”

it’s too late. he’s already asleep, snoring loudly in your ear.

so you take out your phone and text nanami, asking if he can cover for you this afternoon.

because a sick satoru is a needy satoru, and you won’t be leaving this couch for a while.

[radiance1]

There was a boy walking towards the invading army.

There was a civilian child walking towards the invading army from the infinite realms lead by their tyrannical ruler. The Justice League tried to stop force their way through, save the boy.

Instead of that, however, they were blocked by multiple ghosts, all hellbent on not leaving them alone. Superman tried to get close to the kid? Piles upon piles of ghosts knocked him back. Wonder Woman? The same thing happened.

The thing was, that wasn't even the ground army who did it. But the ones in the sky.

So the kid was walking towards an entire army by himself. One hellbent on taking over Earth and have no qualms about ending the short life of a human boy.

Instead of watching a child die, a life they failed to save. Something else happened.

The army parted for him.

Just as Moses parted the Red Sea, the same happened with the ghosts. They made a clear-cut line for him to walk straight towards their king with no obstacle, even clearing the way of anything that could pose as one.

Again, the Justice League tried to go down to drag the boy away, only to again be denied by the ghosts flying through the sky. Only to stop chasing as soon as they retreated a certain distance.

The ghosts stood still, and only moved as they got close, unlike their previous acts of causing havoc and mayhem. So, the Justice League, as much as they didn't want too, stood still and watched.

The boy stood at a stop before the king, painfully tiny in comparison to the massive ghostly tyrant standing before him with his arms crossed.

"Yo, dad." The boy said, and the Justice League froze in shock.

===

"Yo, dad." Danny lifted a hand up in greeting, before dropping that hand to rub at his neck. "Funny seeing you here, I guess."

"Phantom..." Pariah Dark's voice was soft yet booming and seemed to echo throughout the battlefield. "We meet once again on the field of battle, come to challenge me again, little one? Without your armor, no less?" Pariah tilted his head to the side slightly, questioning.

"Oh that? Yea that got destroyed ages ago," Danny shrugged, as if not having it didn't bother him at all. "Parents couldn't exactly, you know, finish it. Plus, they had other things to work on, so they just decided to scrap the thing altogether." He put his hands in his pockets and shrugged again. "So, yea..."

Pariah looked the boy over, his eyes hardening and he clicked his tongue at what he saw.

"You come here, not with armor," Pariah began, strength in his voice and a fire (literally) in his eyes. "Nor a weapon, or a shield, and no allies of any kind-"

"Well those guys are there" Danny pointed behind him, straight at the Justice League.

"-Walk up to a hostile force with no gauge of their strength." But Pariah just barreled on as if the Justice League were an afterthought. "And face their leader and do not expect to come to harm!?" The Ghost King scowled, and the Justice League tensed.

But just tilted his head slightly. "Well, are you going to harm me?" He asked.

Pariah Dark blinked, then whispered. "I could, child. I could kill you." He put a strong emphasis on the word kill.

"You could," Danny nodded. "But are you going to hurt me?"

The Ghost King remained silent, but his gaze intensified.

Danny shrugged, this time with a smile. "See? You wouldn't hurt me so it's fine. Ya big softie."

Pariah's scowl intensified. "I am not soft, child."

"Oh really?" Danny leaned forward and his smile took on a more playful edge. "Then what's you're reason for visiting Earth, hmmmm?"

"To wage war and fight against this world's mightiest heroes." The Ghost King answered quickly.

"Annnnnnnd?"

The king remained silent for a moment and Danny stepped forwards before he face planted onto concrete. "C'mon, dad. Tell me the other reason you came here." Danny crossed his arms, mimicking the Ghost King's pose.

They stared each other in the eyes for a moment, before Pariah looked off the side with green dusting his cheeks. "You have not visited in 50 years, son..." He whispered, but everyone heard it.

"Hah! Knew you missed me!" Danny said shamelessly with a satisfied and smug smile.

"And your father forced me out of the realms because I upset him." Small embers started igniting themselves on the tips of the king's hair.

Silence echoed over the battlefield, before Danny burst out laughing. Pariah Dark's hair fully exploded into green fire as he reached a hand to cover his face. "Of course, alongside the shameless and cheekiness, you get Clockwork's sense of humor as well..."

The Ghost King, at least this very moment, seemed more and more like a tired dad than some fearsome, tyrannical Ghost King.
