send an ask: get to know your author
good god dirt. ok, putting this under the cut bc holy shit
1) is there a story you’re holding off on writing for some reason?
yeah, definitely. theres some longer ideas i have for batman fics that i dont wanna commit to yet, largely because im still learning how to write characters with did and im still fresh into comics, and i want to read more comics before i start writing a character im not as familiar with, yknow? like, i feel like i really need to read more stuff w the arrow fam and the bat fam especially before i go just saying things lol
3) what order do you write in? front of book to back? chronological? favorite scenes first? something else?
chronological babey. i take it one chapter at a time. sometimes if im frustrated ill skip ahead a little bit or leave it as a rough draft and fix it later while i move on, but thats not especially common for me
5) character you were most surprised to end up writing
answered!
6) something you would go back and change in your writing that it’s too late/complicated to change now
id make level 2 shorter. i wrote so much for it i dont wanna just not post the whole thing but i really dont like the second half as much. i think id also make ammfh more playful and less. personal. there wasnt as much emphasis on john being a trickster as i originally wanted and instead i spent more time like venting through the fic which feels. very exposed and strange now
10) write in silence or with background noise? with people or alone?
i usually write w music or white noise in the background depending on how much focus i have! thats why some fics have white noise generators recommended in the notes
11) what aspect of your writing do you think has most improved since you started writing?
ah jeez idk. i think i might be better at the flowery stuff and just like wording things? getting the right vibe down yknow
13) your strengths as an author
i think ive always had pretty strong dialogue. ive gotten better obviously, but its always been one of the easier parts of writing
16) are there any characters who haunt you?
answered!
20) do you write in long sit-down sessions or in little spurts?
a mix tbh. depends on how much time/focus/motivation i have yknow? like sometimes ill pump out 5k in one day and sometimes ill just write a sentence or two before bed. all depends
23) any obscure life experiences that you feel have helped your writing?
i guess rping lol idk being a fmst major i think helps me tackle more sensitive issues in my writing better maybe?
24) have you ever become an expert on something you previously knew nothing about, in order to better a scene or a story?
see. i have absolutely googled weird obscure knowledge for a story. however. the moment i finish writing it it leaves my brain again. nothing sticks. also i have a healthy appreciation for "no one gives a shit it doesnt matter" and i will just throw guns in a fantasy setting bc i dont care and cant be assed to do research. its fan fiction not brain science. pay me if you want better quality

How do you make your editing so pretty???
Hey there!! First off, kjfdgbjfdbgjhdfjh thank you so much. I know this is crazy late, I’ve been working hh. I’ve put a general tutorial(??) under the cut so it’s not too long on dash!! ♥
----
First off, what I currently use:
Photoshop CC
@intramoon ‘s Patchouli Rose (primarily)
@magicbats ‘s Happy Pills PSD set (turned to 20% on both folders)
CANVAS SIZE: 1920 x 1080 (but screen size might vary?)
Tumblr media
THE STEPS (”right-click > open image in new tab” if its too small!)
Tumblr media
^ 1) slap your image on your canvas with all the bs listed above (or whatever you use as your editing psd!)
Tumblr media
^ 2) since my current scene outside in the realm was kinda bright (for early early morning/late night of 3am in-game if i remember correctly lmfao), i had to tone down the brightness as well crank up the contrast for some Nice Touch of depth or whatever idk words. it makes a difference fam.
Tumblr media
^ 3) this is what the brightness/contrast editing did btw. now, i stayed on the picture layer and used the flood select tool and grabbed morgyn; while keeping them selected, i made a new layer with that button on the side mhm. it’s time for some light editing hahah
Tumblr media
^ 4) disregard the pun, im dumb lol. anyways, i took some peachy-orange and drew on some points where the light (from the opposite doorway in which they had exited in post 3) hits them. it’s not accurate but it is what it is. I set this layer to “overlay” and the opacity to roughly 50-40%. Make a new layer!
Tumblr media
^ 5) new layer: do the same exact thing but with finer brush lines but in white (or off-white). This is more of the highlights on the sim (or subject, whatever you’re editing). Set this layer to EITHER “overlay” or “soft light”, then play around the opacity until it looks natural. you CAN take a soft-edged eraser (set opacity to about 20%) and kinda soften up the brushing so its not too sharp and harsh. CTRL+D to deselect the subject.
Tumblr media
^ 6) this is the outcome :3 see the shadowing and lighting? it looks like the warm lights from the hall to Morgyn’s left is hitting them ~ Now, that things look okay, click off the brightness/contrast layer (you’ll wanna save this) and everything else EXCEPT for your picture layer and the layers you just did (lighting and such). Now you want to right-click on a visible layer and click “Merge Visible;” this merges the visible layers into one (I do this so that things dont get messy and disorganized in my layers bc i mass-open 4385873246 pictures and my post-edit psd has so many layers as it is lol) (but this is also a key thing to do for later steps~)
Tumblr media
^ 7) Now with your merged layer of the edited pic, you want to duplicate the image layer so that you have 2. On the top layer, flood-select your main focus—this can be a sim, or a few, and the front-and-center focus area of the image. Once the stuff is selected (make sure you zoom in and get all the little details ie hair, etc), you want to hit your “delete” button on the keyboard (or use the cut tool, whichever is easiest) and watch the stuff poof, as shown above.
Tumblr media
^ 8) grab your blur tool and set it to this setting. Then what i do is i just click on the (still top layer, the one with the erased focus!) layer and go HAM with the mouse. PS does this thing where the more i waggle the mouse the more it blurs. i just blur the background for 10 seconds and release. tada all blurred tf out. then, i go to the bottom (untouched!) layer and use a smaller size of the blur tool and lightly edge around the subject, just to casually blend the subject and background so that things look smooth. when done, merge visible again!!
Tumblr media
^ 9) I then go into Topaz Clean 3 and smooth out the image!! here are my settings ^-^
Tumblr media
^ 10) now my morgyn is a sunkissed-freckled bby. but topaz washes them out almost all the way :c so i take my splatter brush and zOOm in on their cute face and use an eyedropper to grab the color of one of their kinda visible fweckles. then i just splash that brush aLL over their face/skin in general. then i set that layer to multiply, then opacity like 20%?? Then i take a soft edged eraser, opacity to 20%, and kinda spam click all over to not make the “freckles” so consistent but also to blend them in a bit. 
Tumblr media
^ 11) this just shows the settings and outcome of the sunshine bby ♥
Tumblr media Tumblr media
^ 12) these are just what i have set on the Happy Pills PSD Set! I have both folders set to 20% because at 100% + my reshade, shit’s bright as fuck [swEAts] lol. so I turned them down a bit and adjusted as so ~
Tumblr media
^ 13) and finally, with all visible layers merged into one, the brightness/contrast layer turned back on, the Happy Pills PSD folders turned on, and my cinematic black bars on, we get the final image :3 here’s the pic after i finished some additional editing for my story post part 4
Tumblr media
(: !!! I hope this helps lolol ^^ ♥

ANONYMOUS ASKED:
i really like mwot and was wondering, do you wanna talk/loredump/etc about mwot during this blessed month of pride? (if not that's totally cool!!! i really like the au and am curious about it!)
REPLY:
Tumblr media
YES!!!!
umineko spoilers below and LONG POST KSDJDKSKD i really went infodumping......you got me right in an infodumping mood....
also im being very casual in this post so if something is like weird or vague its probably because i got tired of thinking about it and skipped ahead. SKJDSJD
mwot is an umi au and its very gay and very trans because i, a gay trans, decided it was TIME to INDULGE
LIKE A MOUNTAIN WIND FALLING ON OAK TREES also known as MWOT, MW/OT, Mountain Wind + Oak Trees, MW+OT, or literally any combination of its parts, is an eva/natsuhi au, set in a vague modern big city setting
https://rontra.tumblr.com/tagged/mountain-wind-oak-trees
it’s a comedy, mostly? it has elements of backstory transphobia and  stuff like that but that’s not really the story i want to tell with it, so  i don’t go too deeply into it in the main fic. it’s mostly comedy and Self Care: The  Story (once these nerds get around to acknowledging that self care is  good, anyway!!!!)  
Eva is 20, nb lesbian (though she doesnt know half of it to begin with). generally a bitchard at the beginning but also deeply craving that Validation. Invested in making the fic harder to write due to pronoun shenanigans (shoutout to the lengthy section of intimate emotional scenes that uses no pronouns at all for eva but is narrated by them in 3rd person)
Natsuhi is like 21 i guess because im a sucker for her having like an annoying 1-3 years on eva bc eva would get mad about it. Also she’s trans, gray-ace, hopeless romantic, generally full of “quickly raising your eyebrows and looking away while sipping your drink and thinking Yikes” energy. weaponizes indifference but is no stranger to harder means. she’s a smart cookie
Sayo is also 20, gender clown car living her best life. Presents differently depending on mood and whim
krauss is like 22 or whatever. for housekeeping’s sake, rosa and rudolf are too young to matter (8 and 10, or something like that). dont even worry about it
honestly the weirdest part of the au is eva and sayo being the same age
also this au is the origin point of me & my friends using akikaze as nat’s maiden name. the more you know!
-
USHIROMIYA GOLD dishes up that yellow metal like you wouldn’t believe. led by kinzo whos so fuckin good at sniffing out that sweet sweet gold people are half convinced the man has psychic powers. Any piece of land he’s got his eyes on, he WILL get his hands on, no matter who owns it right now.
the land kinzo wants At The Moment is owned by the AKIKAZE FAMILY who have been notably on the decline recently. they’re in the economic shithole so this land is basically all they’ve got right now, so when kinzo wants it and it suddenly Has Value, they’re like “oh, shit,
anyway the deal basically shakes out that like, he gets the land and all the gold that may or may not be in it. he offers his eldest son in exchange for this land, to marry their daughter: in the bonds of marriage graciously ensuring a part of the winnings will spill over on them, while keeping them under his control without money coming into the picture.
Everything’s working out great and coming up kinzo. the deal is closed and everyone’s happy (i guess). until ONE DAY, just a few narrow weeks before the akikaze girl is set to move in with the ushiromiyas,
KINZOS
OLDEST
SON
DISAPPEARS
!!!!!
Krauss dislikes being told what to do, and his father’s ideals never lined up with his own. He thinks this entire thing is sort of fucked up and can’t live under his dad’s thumb anymore. That's why, immediately following Kinzo’s agreement with the Akikaze family, Krauss disappears. He’s just kinda left for greener pastures, to unfold his own life and pursue his own interests independent of the Ushiromiya name. He leaves behind a letter explaining it & basically he forfeits both name and inheritance, and Kinzo’s incredible deal is suddenly in jeopardy.....
obviously this is kinzo though, and all of his solutions are like, 20 times more complicated than they have to be? he’s DETERMINED to have this land so he’s like “i need an eldest son. shit rudolf is only like 9. fuck. well okay i have an eldest daughter with a deeply complicated need for validation and success entirely driven by her overall neglect at my hands“ and the rest. as they say. is history (???)
Ushiromiya Eva always saw Krauss as unworthy of the inheritance, and to her, his disappearance confirms this. She grew up always being made to feel inferior to her older brother, usually being ignored in favor of him, and it's bred a complex need for validation in her. Her values and strengths are more like Kinzo’s than her brother’s, and Kinzo recognizes this in the wake of Krauss’ disappearance.
basically he concocts this really wild scheme where eva has to pretend to be his oldest son and marry this girl or whatever so he can seal this stupid gold deal and she’s like “well lol if i get to be family heir” and hes like “yes that’s what im saying” and shes like “awesome let’s do it”
all of the servants are in on it too of course. specifically kinzo enlists SAYO who works there as normal staff and isn’t otherwise tangled into this family’s mess in any way whatsoever. she’s just here to serve tea and looks. anyway he’s like “you work on this with eva--i mean evan, my son, you must have misheard--and eva you have to listen to whatever yasuda says” and eva is like “that last part will not be frustrating for me at all”.
Tumblr media
Yasuda as reigning Household Gender Presentation Expert is like “i think i just got orders from the master to bully eva?” and eva is like “i wish i could fire you but my dad just banned me from doing that” and then gradually...over the course of the project......they become....friends.........
(the au is tagged eva & sayo for a reason. they become FRIENDS!!)
mostly its just various combinations of shkanon dunking on eva and its all VERY good.
during all these shenanigans we make some startling realizations like “gender euphoria is a hell of a drug” and stuff, which is extremely harrowing for everyone (note: not for everyone. just for eva, who makes 10,000 realizations every day, and should not have been counted.)
(ok sidenote did anyone else put on their first binder & go like “hmmm. i live here now” because. mood. im projecting entirely into this fic)
Gender Clown Car yasuda (currently as lion) is like “you know there’s like more than 2 genders” and eva’s like “you fucking wehat”.
i also make a REALLY INVOLVED JOKE ABOUT CASTIGLIONI GOLD, THE RIVAL COMPANY, and how BEATRICE’S KID LOOKS A LOT LIKE LION, and EVERYONE thinks this is all VERY funny
Tumblr media
(i would like to see it. also kinzo owes beatrice castiglioni $20 and she’s never let him forget it.)
now wrapped up in this stupid impostor scheme AND full of big wild nonbinary energy AND!! WITH AN INFURIATING NEW FRIEND!! IN THE STAFF!!! this one funky ushiromiya is all ready to get in on an arranged marriage or whatever. provided NO ONE EVER FINDS OUT that they’re faking it and replacing the Actual Heir, which would no doubt ruin the scheme AND bring kinzo’s wrath on everybody involved, of course.
-
AKIKAZE NATSUHI IS READY TO PUNCH HER FIANCE IN THE THROAT IF HE EVEN LOOKS AT HER but she understands what’s happening here. she knows she didn’t have a say in this from the very beginning. that the deal was sealed for her as soon as the name “ushiromiya” was said. she knows her family married her off quick in a bid to get rid of her. if she’s humiliated by this ordeal, she is far too proud to show it. she packs her bags and walks into the mansion with her head held high........and immediately has this exchange with her fiance
Tumblr media
and this one
Tumblr media
so that’s kind of the energy we’re going for with these two.
(natsuhi’s line in the second cap was going to be removed for being Way Too Intense, but everyone i talked to said it was too hot to cut, so i decided to indulge us all. blame the lesbians)
they IMMEDIATELY don’t get along but they kinda agree to like, mind their business, since neither of them are interested in playing house here. if they can get the wedding to go off without a hitch they can basically go back to never talking to each other again.
natsuhi’s entire angle here is essentially: her family was not that good, and this family likely won’t be better, BUT here she has a chance to build something new for herself. she’ll be out of her parents’ house. She needs this deal to stay for her own sake, but she has to get out ahead of her husband and set up a dynamic that favors her. when she meets evan she essentially gauges the kind of person she’s dealing with and picks her approach accordingly: this is not a soft man, and she has to be hard in turn to avoid being steamrolled.
and its VERY hot
anyway some stuff happens and it eventually they both sorta get each other’s secrets. eva is not the firstborn son and natsuhi is not the card kinzo thought he was pulling from her family’s hand and theyre both toast if word hits the public. directly after the wedding they establish a tense alliance of keeping each others’ secrets....
and then they.....fall...in l
there’s some fun tensions and realizations. eva is like “so im quickly catching on that no praise i ever received from dad was on my own merit and he’s kind of a dirtbag all around and his validation is kind of not worth it” and nat is like “word our parents are chains” & they run kinzo over with the down w cis bus. it’s fine. they get postcards from krauss sometimes. he has a motorbike now.
DID I MENTION THE PRACTICE KISSING
Tumblr media
BC THEY HAVE TO PRACTICE! FOR THE!! PUBLIC WEDDING!!!!
and thats mwot i guess. it’s my au where natsuhi’s accent color is red and some other stuff happens too. happy pride month

If someone wrote you grandthorki, what sort of things would you most want in the fic? Like got any tropes, kinks, themes, scenarios, plot bunnies you desperately wanna see written for them? What about things you definitely DONT want?
EEE, first of all, thank so much for this ask!!!! Second, holy hell, I’d be so happy to read any grandthorki fic. Literally my motto for grandthorki is “beggars can’t be choosers” XD And jeez, I’m just so excited about the fact that you’re even considering writing one, anon!! ^_^
Here’s a link to some ideas I had back before the ship was even namedd ahh!!! All of that is stuff I’d love to see in a fic. Otherwise, here’s some more:
Things I’d Want (in no particular order):
In terms of themes/scenarios/ideas/etc…
One of them deciding for the other person what’s “best.” For example, let’s say the Grandmaster threatens to punish Loki in some horrific way if Thor doesn’t fuck him. Loki actually prefers the horrific punishment (maybe Thor even knows this!!), but Thor can’t handle the thought of Loki being punished like that, so he decides to fuck him anyway. OR VICE VERSA. This is something I’ve wanted for a long time. I’d fucking scream for 4 hours straight if a fic did something like that holy shit. 
Lots of fighting –> Lots of comfort. Basically I want Thor and Loki to be magnificently upset about all the dubcon/noncon to the point where they take their anger out on each other… but then later, when they’ve calmed down, they become fiercely gentle with each other. Like aftercare after an earlier fight between them, mmmm A++++++
Grandmaster fucking Thor, especially if it’s to get a rise out of Loki or punish him somehow. Idk, I just really like Thor whump, and I’m always scared to write it too much myself, and I’m just dying to read it
Anything pushing the boundaries of consent omg. So like, in Brothers of Habit, I had Thor and Loki consensually have sex at the end of their own free will because they wanted to. I personally still consider it dubcon, because those feelings arose from trauma, but pushing it into that gray area was super fun. Similarly, in Figment of Choice **spoiler** I’m gonna have Thor and Loki choose to have sex in the Grandmaster’s absence for Reasons™. Anything that can get it close to consensual while still being dubcon (or starting as dubcon) is so cool o.o
Grandmaster gets Thor and Loki discussing their feelings. Here’s a link to a fic prompt that I’d just love to see someone write!! But in general, just anything that tugs at the roots of Thor and Loki’s damaged relationship is something I think the Grandmaster would find really fascinating&fun (which would be fascinating&fun to read too XD).
Mega Angst. literally all angst is great, but if it gets to the point where one (or both) of them is suicidal, holy fuck, that’d be amazing. In some other stuff I’ve written/planned, I have them having serious discussions about whether it’d be better if they actively got themselves killed, rather than continue to be nonconned. I love me some good trauma-bonding suicidal ideationnn
In terms of kinksss/tropes…
magical drugs that make one of them or both of them super horny
dubious/nonconsensual drug use in general omg (like esp if it’s addictive)
one of them (OR BOTH OF THEM) being pimped out as a prostitute, holy fucking hottttttttt. especially if the setting is super, like… space-underworld type of vibe (ooh like in veliseraptor’s fics cast me down where the devil won’t go and bruised my needs getting down to pray). That’s exactly the vibe i’d love in a fic like this. Also here’s a link for some other ideas I had on that
watersports, DON’T JUDGE ME, IT’S MY HUGEST AND MOST SHAMEFUL KINK lol, and i wish more ppl wrote itttt bc i’m too scared to lol T__T
public humilation…. any humiliation… please humiliate one or both of them in every way possible
sensory overload, whether it be because of forced&repetitive orgasming or multiple dicks in the multiple holes or just generally lots of touching or anything else u can think of, i’ll dig it
Things I Don’t Want:
Like I said, I’m honestly fine with anything in a grandthorki fic, literally beggars CANNOT be choosers. But my biggest turnoffs would be:
if either of them had romantic and/or sexual feelings towards each other before the grandthorki experience… (it’s fine if they develop feelings afterwards though). I’d still read it and love it if you wrote them as secretly attracted to each other this whole time, but it wouldn’t count as grandthorki to me. (I know I’ve said this 500 times, but idk, it’s important enough that i always feel a need XD)
if it was fully consensual for the bros… like they can pretend like they’re into it, they can be physically aroused and into it, they can slowly come to a point where they’re even genuinely into it, but a part of them, however small, had to have not wanted this in the beginning. Soft!Frostmaster (or soft!thundermaster) just isn’t my thing
daddy kink, ageplay, etc. this is not a dealbreaker, but it’s definitely not Ideal™ lol. The word “daddy” in particular makes me nauseous in sex scenes. (not shaming though, it’s just my preference)
lots of blood. I mean if one of them is just bleeding because they were fucked too roughly, that’s cool with me and can be hot. Or if it’s just cuts that need to be tended to or something. but idk if one of them’s being tortured to the point of bleeding everywhere… or one of them has to ingest the other’s blood… or something sexual like that… I’m less into it… (will still read tho lol)
(this is extremely unlikely to come up, but just in case.. I’m triggered by animal death/harm, even if only briefly mentioned. it’s the only thing that truly triggers me.. so that would likely be a turnoff lol)
Anyway…. this post got pretty long, so I’ma leave it there.. there’s probably some other stuff I like that I forgot to mention so if I think of anything, I’ll make a post later!! :D I actually just made a tag “Grandthorki insp” for such purposes!!!

@maireep replied to your post “@operationkuro replied to your post “:( i wanna blab about fics” so...”
I HAVE SO MANY AUS TOO..... LIKE I FEEL U!!! PLS TELL ME ABOUT....... ALL OF THESE
i will bUT U HAVE TO TELL ME ABOUT URS TOO !!!! P L S
all the aus i mentioned are under the cut be warned it’s very long
1. klance au aka jasmine
aka the au i’ve been recently in love with?? i dont want to talk Too Much about it (well, i do i wanna spill evERYTHING) but it’s like, story stuff so. anyway i have a lot of feelings about post-war and post-breakup klance. 
it’s just such a deep and poignant and heartbreaking relationship bc my klance just doesn’t work as a couple but they really do truly love each other and they don’t want to lose each other (this is especially apparent and relevant in this Upcoming Scene and i cant wait to write it) and they want the best for each other. and they’re healing together from themselves and each other and a war
also its a v v v personal story (accidental self projection) and i alwAYS want to talk about that [in relation to this au] but it goes back to that first point of i dont want to say too much and also. no one wants to hear my sad sob story or whatever u wanna call it
2. phone swap au
this is one of my quality shitpost aus. see i either do hardcore, most likely angst aus and then i do shitposts. no in between. 
here’s how it goes. keith + lance have the same kind of phone. lance + hunk like the besties they are casually trade phones. 
so hunk is casually carrying around lance’s phone and then he runs into keith on a train. they accidentally swap phones. now keith has lance’s phone, hunk has keith’s phone, and lance has hunk’s phone.
lance happens to go out of town for fun. so now keith is panicking bc he doesn’t understand what’s happening why is this guy texting him where the what the fuck. shiro also happens to go out of town. lance + shiro meet up and they chill. 
keith decides he’s going to track down his phone. he goes to pidge for help. hunk attempts to track down lance’s phone but can’t find keith. circles, man. it’s hilarious, and meanwhile lance and shiro are just like, on some beach enjoying their mini vacay.
3. 5+1 platonic klance
ok this is real simple. 5 times keith cradles lance in his arms + 1 time lance cradles keith. 
4. rift au
this is an upcoming Big Project and it’s a hot meSS. it’s rlly long and complicated but here we go
set during og paladins’ time. 
so in a different verse, empress allura has just begun her reign and is spreading peace throughout the universe. the former prince lotor has just lost his father and leads a rebel group called the guns of gamara alongside his generals. 
when the original voltron fly into the rift, instead of what happens in canon, they enter the alternate universe. it becomes a 3-way war—empress allura, voltron and the guns of gamara, and (still) zombies zarkon + honerva. 
oops.
5. kerberos hunk au
literally just made this yesterday and today. dont wanna share too much, but hunk goes to kerberos w shiro, matt, and commander holt. when the galra take him, they don’t notice hunk, who is left behind in space. 
6. hunk whump 
no explanation needed. im sorry sunshine
7. laser tag au
here we go w the shitposts. the garrison trio is a competitive laser tag team who just lost a member. keith, shiro, and matt were a rival team. except matt disappeared and shiro broke his fucking arm (good job, shiro), so grudgingly keith joins the garrison trio and they face off a galra squad. 
pew pew.
8. dating by graduation
its like “married by 30″ but “dating by graduation” ft hance
i have a lot of other aus but i think this is :)) long enough :)) LOL

a long fucking post (sorry)
bc my browser quit so i just copied it into notepad and kept going and didn’t break it up bc frankly i couldn’t be bothered lol i’ve #struggled today anyway:
i...i dont have any stuff to make spicy food with?? oh my god..........
where do i even...find
lol i could go back to the plateau but i’d probably be Sad.
i guess i have no choice :/
wow i miss the old man
pfft i can see farosh from here but it’s so close i’d never make it in time
SOMEDAY /shakes fist
seeking out shelter from a lightning storm inside the ruined temple of time makes me Very Sad
man. man. there’s nothing i wouldn’t do to set this right
except the main story, i guess, hahaha
OMG A RAINBOW
just for a short moment i didn’t even have time for a picture...wow wow wow
all right i’ve got enough peppers and i’ve had MORE than enough of the plateau im outta here
i fast traveled back to that one shrine i couldnt figure out before
i realize now i was probably supposed to use my paraglider hahaha but i just didnt think of it
theres a chest in here that i cannot. get. oh my god
[death montage]
GOT IT
lol and all that for a little sword
BACK TO THE MOUNTAINS thank god i have a fast travel point now
and that’s all done! time for more of The Story
normally i’d cut this off here but it’s p short so far so w/e
except.......idk where to go next. i know i want to find the zoras, but
which...direction are they. like, i even googled it
i’ll ask my brother and attempt the naked island again while i wait. i read somewhere you can drop your stuff before you properly set foot on there and it helps a bit. plus it’ll be something he hasn’t done, haha
well, so far so good - i managed to drop a few of my best items and a  small amount of food - apples and raw fish - before i stepped on, but i forgot to drink the defense up elixir. i DID remember to eat the extra hearts food, though, and a good thing, bc i came on during a fucking storm in the middle of the night and nearly got killed by some weird yellow octorok popping up out of the ground. fine now tho, all out of extra hearts but other than that good - found some shrooms, a sword, and an axe
oh my god i hit a barrel and DIED bc there was an electric chuchu in it!!!
okay trying again...in the storm again...forgot to drink my defense bonus again...Greay
one orb down!!
lol and i died AGAIN bc i underestimated a bokoblin...i can't take out camps from afar with no arrows!! maybe i can try bombs next time, sigh
i hate getting out to this island
i hate everything ABOUT this island. it is deisnged to kill you. endless skeletons and fire chuchus are great if you need materials and weapons but the chuchus set everything on fire. and there are octoroks ringing the whole island AND on the actual island - there's no safe ground ANYWHERE!!
remembered to drink my elixir but nearly left the stuff i dropped floating in the ocean lol
one orb down AGAIN. 
gotta be a smarter way to do this bokblin camp on the hill. i can't take them all on at once and i can't detonate any of the explosive from afar with arrows, and bombs get me noticed. i can't take that swarm of enemies with no armor. no way.
YES camp down lmao i blew up the barrels with my own bombs since the fucking chuchus noticed me anyway
now i can COOK THINGS thank you thank you
YES now i have hearts up and attack elixirs!!!!
time to fight the blue hinox (:
HAHAHA WOW MY HEARTRATE IS SO JACKED RN
he has so much defense even with my elixir ;_; im too afraid to get close enough for an attack
i wish i had a defense booster!!
NO oh god a lightning storm now of all times!!! no!!!!!!
I CANT EVEN CLIMB THE CLIFFS TO ESCAPE HIM IN THE RAIN
oh my god can he follow me into the water...?
wow it's lightning for the next three hours what the fuck?
aaah the music stopped..he's laying back down...i hope his fucking health doesnt refill
i tried using chuchu jelly to make explosions but they didnt hurt him, only my weapons did bc of my elixir...but im sooo afraid to get close to him, if he kills me i have to do ALL this again
i wanna wait the storm out before i fight him again but i get the feeling the storm was triggered by him waking up bc it's nonstop lightning on the little forecast thingy
god there's not even anywhere to take shelter i just have to pray i dont get struck
yeah it changed back to normal rain as soon as he started snoring...he BETTER not have his health back
NOPE HE DOESNT BUT I GOT UP CLOSE TO HIM TO HIT HIM AND I'M SO SCARED LMAO MY HEART IS POUNDING SO HARD IM SO STRESSED
at least it isnt storming
nooo i hid in the water again and he slept and some of his health came back )))): i am never gonna get him, this is gonna take hours!
as if that wasnt bad enough there's another bokoblin camp with a MOBLIN on top of this big ledge
maybe i can get some arrows at least :/
good news: managed to cheese the bokoblin camp up top. have in my possesion 13 arrows. bad news: hinox is definitely back at full health rn
ok. so im up here where hinox can't actually go (i hope...) and i have my bombs and 13 arrows, plus all these extra bows and weapons and even a pot to cook some more stuff in. i can do this. i can do this.
ok he can't get up here he can't even hit me with projectiles but IMMEDIATELY the lightning started up again so lmao (:
luckily i have found the perfect position from which to roll bombs down at him lol
so this is only gonna take all year ASSUMING i dont get sturck by lightning.
no no no no no NO NO NO
the blood moon!!! why now!!! oh my god!!!!!! can ANYTHING go right oh my god!!!!!!!!!!
at least im far enough down on the ledge the camp up there cant see me
but i'll have to clear out the other one again if i ever manage to kill the hinox and get his orb
:| he keeps trying to go to sleep lol which. no bitch no more health for you jesus fuck
he can't get any of his rocks to land on me and only about every third bomb lands on him lol
his health is sooo low im so tempted to go down and take a swing w/ my weapon, but if i die now and lose all this progress i won't be able to deal so im gonna stay patient and cheese it til the bitter, bitter end
HAHAHAHAHA FINALLY
FUCKING EAT ME YOUR GARBAGE MONSTER GET W R E K T
I PERSEVERED!!!!!! STAYED DETERMINED okay now if not for the blood moon that'd be the end of it but no i gotta clean out that one camp AGAIN without dying
i can do this i can do this i can do this
i......i did it
all thats left is to drop my items and put in the last orb
oh my god!!!!
oh NO if you drop too many they start vanishing ok....choose carefully then
lol ALL THAT FOR A SHRINE TO SOLVE this better be one of those no-puzzle chest only deals
LMFAO i have to reclear the big camp to get in the shrine...oh my god...oh my god
ah well maybe i'll get some more shields i accidentally glitched all mine away
should be easy with all my stuff back
aaaand im stuck down here at the camp i cleared out bc its storming. at least the blue moblin got struck by lightning in a stroke of what i can only assume is divine justice
ok the storm has FINALLY passed
i am FINALLY inside the shrine and have a fast travel point
i got 300 rupees, which is garbage, and i got to watch that stupid monk turn to dust.
ooh whoa there's a rito out here!!!! hi!!!!!
lol a training course for flying...20 rupees a pop. now i know what the fucking chest was for. god.
ah i can't do the course and im so tired of failing at things...i guess i'll leave them for now altho i bet you get a SICK upgrade
no wait i looked it up and its just rupees LMAO no thanks
im never coming back to this fucking island ever again
also: forgot that i did not actually explore the sunken ruins earlier bc of Weather, am going to do that quickly before quitting
oh god oh no i landed right here and there's some fucking masked walking beast getting ready to attack me Why God
IT'S A CENTAUR I THOUGHT IT WAS SOMEONE WITH A HORSE IT'S CALLED LYNEL WHY WHY WHY
god okay we're doing this i guess jesus fuck
if that wasn't bad enough farosh is flying above us LMAO and i still can't shoot him
I! KILLED HIM! bc i had a DEFENSE elixir
i wish i had snapped a better pic than his dying body tho :/
o h w e l l
oh!! i found a memory while exploring!!!!!
HAHAH HOOOOOLY SHIT
oh my god...oh my god...
so it was the four pilots of the original jaegers and two are dudes and two are ladies!!! so there was an even mix in the scene #nice
the voice acting was good and still so unexpected
and the MUSIC oh i love the music when he's remembering something
it felt like a scene from any zelda game, but one near the end—except i'm still at the start
it's so similar to how everyone like, rallied behind link at the end of tp to help him beat ganon, but...this time we already know link failed
god!!!!! this is so good!!!!
every time i find myself thinking "this is an amazing game but it just doesn't feel much like zelda" it comes back and gets me
aaaaaah
and i found a shrine here!!! #nice
altho i'd really like to be done for the night lol
it was super easy thank goodness
omg no the dragon flying earlier must have been naydra bc there naydra is :'))) hey bud
ah and i ran into kass the accordian playing rito again ;w;
anyway now that im FINALLY done with this pronvince tomorrow i can go find the zoras!! yay!!!!
fun fact my very first username was "[not my name, some random one, not telling what it was] of the zoras" bc i love them so much
