#i just need to finish chapter 7

[starkidlabs]

Playing a video game you really love is so difficult sometimes. On the one hand you want to play through it as quickly as possible because you’re so excited to see what happens next, on the other hand you know you need to play it slowly so it isn’t all over too quickly.

#I’m talking about Sherlock Holmes the Awakened #I’m just starting chapter 7 of 8 and I know I need to save it until tomorrow but I want to play it now so badly #generally love the characters and the story in this one - mostly because I enjoy seeing characters I love have a mental breakdown #(like I’m a sucker for whump and Sherlock being driven slowly insane as John does everything to protect him) #the Frogwares Sherlock Holmes series is one of my fav game series and this is definitely one of the best in the series probably my favourite #(simply because I never got to finish Chapter 1 before my bf broke up with me and I can’t finish it because it’s unavailable on switch)

the joys of writing something with a clear passage of time

#itsallmine #going through the motions fic #writers on tumblr #so fic update: Chapter 6 out of 7 is finished! #I've started the final chapter but thats going to be a ways off #i would like to start proofing chapter 3 sooner rather than later but I've been a bit busy with a family emergency #and having to travel bc of it #but chapter three will be soonish #im sorry thats the best timeline i can give atm #so just have this no spoilers line i had from my first pass of chapter six #me: oh scout drawing on his arm how many days it'll be! that's fun and cute and easy to remember #also me: WHAT DAY IS IT BOY #now if youll excuse me i need to figure out how many days have passed in fic #we stay silly gamers

[nostalgia-tblr]

i've spent several days failing to write fic, just to keep yous all updated as you obviously crave.

#i *might* have an idea of sifki week it's still cooking though and i don't have much time left D: #trying to get Chapter 7 of the AU finished but it's intimidating me and i think i may also be putting off finishing it because then what??? #which is silly because the reason i need to finish it is so i can read the whole thing! i can't just deprive myself like this! #fic related

oh also I've been playing more last window and while I think the pacing is generally much, MUCH better than it was with hotel dusk itself, the wake up -> answer the phone/the doorbell -> go to the cafe/fourth floor loop is SOOO boring. please make me do something else ‼️‼️

#im at the start of chapter 8 and chapter 7 just did not need to exist at all....no plot advancement whatsoever and only very mild- #-character advancement. what was the point #aj plays last window #junpei.txt #gonna try and finish the game tonight if i can bc i dont really want to carry this into the new year. lol

wtf is up with my brain sending me sexy Annie dreams lately? and though i would never ever complain about such a thing, i am just a little perplexed as to why i went months without one and now all of a sudden BAM 3 in one week

#me trying to write trnt 10 and being unable to write anything serious bc my hypothalamus is melting into goop #so i opened up an old otbp smut draft and fuckin. wrote 7 pages in an hour ! help #and as it gets closer and closer to becoming a fully formed drabble i'm getting that good old Done With My Project surge of confidence #literally hoping and praying on my knees that maybe finishing something will give me the confidence/inspo that i need to get over this hump #this chapter is just so difficult. i know i've said that before. i meant it every time ngl BUT #i do think that objectively 10 has the most complicated dynamic to get across bc there are so many characters involved ugh you'll see #okay okay back to talking about smut hehe i feel like the sudden influx of Annie dreams is my brain reminding my where my loyalties lie #bhabjlHBFD #one of the dreams also contained...... pieck #i was like LJSDGPEFIALKJ FJWKB;. #it was... so good. i literally cannot stop thinking about it #tsuki speaks #annie-isms #trnt annie

my shit ass gamer chair has developed a quirky lil issue where the seat won't stay up and is constantly sinking down and there's nothing i can do about it. it'll last for like 2 hours and then i just can't use it anymore. and i don't feel good asking my parents for a replacement we do not have that money rn. and i apparently don't know how to tell if a chair is going to be good before it gets here (i chose this chair. it's lasted less than a year) so i would have to ask my parents to figure it out for me and they don't have that time. so. i'm kinda just. not able to use my computer for very long. so that's awesome.

#vent post #negative #the seat hurts to sit on at this point too #it's just a bad chair. i knew it was bad the moment i started putting it together. #i'm glad it waited to do this until after i finished making chapter 7 of my comic so i don't technically need to use it much #but i wanted to draw today. #and now i'm gonna spend the rest of my day in bed cause i've got nothing else i can do #i also have not finished making my fucking cover letter for this stupid application so i'm gonna have to transfer that to google docs to #do it on my phone in bed #also the chair sinks down so slowly that i usually can't tell if it's actually sinking and trying to figure it out makes me nauseous #for some god damn reason #fuck. chairs are so fucking expensive. #i wanted to use the money i'm gonna get from the job i'm hopefully getting to buy fun silly stuff #but i'm probably gonna have to spend All Of It on a fucking chair #because i really cannot make my parents get me one. #so now if i don't get this job i'm just. kinda fucked #i've got money in savings i just hate having to use it. that was supposed to be my moving out fund man #this fucking. sucks #if anybody can explain why the fuck my chair is doing this so i can fix it. that'd be awesome. #update: its clearly a problem with the cushion. unfortunately i cant replace the cushion. #not without taking a knife to it. which i am super unsure if thats a good idea. #i hate knowing fucking nothing. i dont know what to do. i want to scream.

ok i finished re-editing ITNL chapter 6 & posted it. also i finished chapter 5 yesterday & forgot to say anything lskdjfslkdjf

man. chapter 6 sure is something. lots of catharsis here.

#speculation nation #itnl shit #im now on page 60 of 190 for the overall doc. so. im making progress. #stilllll only about a third of the way thru in word count I Guess. but the latter stuff will hopefully not take me as long. #i was stuck on a bit of chapter 5 for a few days. which held me back. but im through that now. #and there were some wordings and such i wanted to change in chapter 6. minor things. but still things that were bothering me. #chapter 7... nothing major that i can think of. just gonna check for general wordings probably #chapter 8 there's smth that i know i want to fix. shouldnt be too hard to do. #chapter 9 has a sentence i struggled with and was not satisfied with so im probs gonna go back and try to improve that again #but HOPEFULLY it won't take me too long to do. chapter 9 is a pretty short chapter overall. #chapter 10 & onwards is around when i started taking More Time for chapters due to life things #which means they were less rushed AND THUS will hopefully have less things i want to fix with them #aka. they will not take as long to edit. Hopefully. #i know ITNL readers are wanting that chapter 15 already and Believe Me i want it to. but im committed to this full re-edit. #i needed to reread ITNL anyways to get back into the mindstate. and i sure am reading. #editing makes it so i take slower than a simple reread. i could read 75k words in a day Easily if it was just a matter of reading. #but i care about fixing up a bunch of the little issues that have been bothering me. and so im doing a total re-edit. #im making solid progress. best case scenario i could maybe finish in like a week. im gonna try.

i am once again reminded of why Naruto brain rot hit so hard in 2020-2021

#misc #BABE WAKE UP LOVE WILL FIND YOU THIS IS A THREAT UPDATED #I SAW TH NOTIFICATION AND DID A DOUBLE TAKE #IM WORKING ON FINISHING UP 3 PRESENTATIONS FOR FINALS RN I CANT DO THIS #THATS A LIE I CAN #I JUST FINISHED READING THE CHAPTER #AND IM GOING BACK TOMORROW TO EAT EVERY SINGLE CRUMB OF THIS DELICIOUS MYSTERY OF A FIC GOD I CAN FEEL MYSELF GOING INSANE #I JUST GOT HIT WITH A HAMMER AND WHY I LOVE THE DYNAMIC BETWEEN KAKASHI AND TEAM 7 #AUGHHHHH #RAAAAAAA #ok IM DONE YELLING HERE TIME TO YELL IN THE COMMENTS #I NEED TO GO BACK IN MY BOOKMARKS AND CATCH UP #BUT I AM SO FUCKING BUSY AAAAAAAA

from silverrae (ao3)

i just read “say something” in one sitting and am completely obsessed with this fic. it’s so late and i’m so tired but it was so worth it and i love your writing style so much and thought you should know. *smooch* (pretend i’m smooching you on the head gently)

adkjbskjbfd thank you so much this was such a sweet ask to wake up to!!! so happy to hear you enjoyed the fic so much and i appreciate you letting me know!!! i hope despite staying up late to read you wake up feeling perfectly refreshed by the power of fanfiction ahaha

gently smooching you on the head right back!!

#ask response #silverrae #say something #i definitely started working on the next chapter of this one! #idk how long it will take because the draft is maybe 1/5 of the way done so far but i know what i want to say so hopefully it'll go quickly #(or rather what the characters need to say because PHEW there's a lot of dialogue in this one) #then it's just a matter of how many edits and/or rewrites my brain decides on this time kajsdfkbj #oh and also there's a oneshot i'm trying to post for ladrien june day 7 that i need to finish first 👀

Today I wrote about 900 words \o/ But only 100 of those were in the thing I wanted to add words to :( And most of them are in the wrong chapter. :( :(

#i know i need to finish the next AU chapter - just today i thought “they've been stuck mid-shag for ages. her legs must be sore by now” #but it's okay! fictional characters don't experience the flow of time when they're not being written! i assume! #i also thought “oh for fuck's sake stop wangsting [sic] about your illegitimate wean” oh no i am sick of the main plotline!!! #look as long as this next chapter is posted before march of next year i won't have broken my “longest time stuck between chapters” record #this is why many people don't read WIPs isn't it? #one scene requires the main characters to talk about their feelings for each other - URGH!!! #(but everyone who was worrying about how far AU!Sylvie is just in this for the sperms can relax as you will FIND OUT in chapter 5!) #(also i'm pretending it's making An Ironic Statement that i wrote fic about the woes of historical queens and she's not the PoV character) #(but actually i just didn't want to have to write lots of pregnancy stuff. this way i can lock her in a darkened room for much of that) #(oh god i'm so sorry AU!Sylvie the Confinement thing seemed like a good idea at the time... well no it always seemed fucked up. but.) #(and! chapter 6 makes things a bit clearer about what Unspecified Tasks AU!Loki has been doing off-screen. clue: it involves knives.) #(chapter 7 will be Mostly Filth but also a Shocking Cliffhanger!) #(and chapter 8 brings The Ending! gosh what a thrilling ride lies ahead when/if i actually finish writing this story! stay tuned!) #but no i'm gonna go now and see if i can at least get her legs into a more comfortable position #the sylki au that got longer and wronger #don't believe the hype #fic related

There is a book I am desperately trying to think of and I am so pissed I forgot both the name and the author because it was one of the books that I read that left a genuine impress on me as a kid

#ramblings #I’m not exactly sure if I could say what sort of impact it had on me but I do feel it was of the things that shaped #me in some way or another #both because it was a out of my ordinary anthropomorphic animal books #and in general was just one of the very few contemporary books I read because I mostly stuck to fantasy #I’m not sure if I’m ever actually going to find it again because the records of me ordering it from the library lost on me at this point #it was like at least 7 years ago so not surprising #I really wish I had the focus to fucking read anymore in general #I fucking loved reading so much as a kid but now I can barely bring myself to finish a page even though I am interested in the premise #is it just ADHD bs and even though I’m interested I’m not interested enough to give the brain enough dopamine #I really need to get medicated maybe then I could start doing at least a chapter a day and ease myself into it #like when I first started reading big chapter books as a little kid #maybe I should try reading the Reckless series again because looking back on it that series was likely aimed at adults #and little 12 year old me got a hold of it because it was in the fantasy genre #where was going with this? #⬅️ bitch who is unmedicated

I've been going thru a major creative block recently and I'm really depressed over it

#there's so much stuff I want to do but can't #I'm trying to finish some valentines adopts that I want to sell but Im struggling to finish the linearts as well as find good colors #for the characters #I've also gotta publish the next chapter of my book which is late AGAIN #but every time I open the word document to write I cannot put down anything interesting or coherent #I tried to switch to preparing some draft one shots for ockiss week but even with that I'm facing the same issues #I talked to my therapist about my creativity block and she said I just need to carve out time for myself #like. alone time where I can be creative in a way where it also doesn't feel like a chore to make things #but I don't have the ability to make that time #between work and my datemate almost constantly being around I have no way to get that #and even during the times I do get to be alone all I want to do is scroll thru tumblr and reddit or watch videos #I can't even imagine amvs to music anymore for fuck's sake! #I'm literally always fucking tired and mentally drained #I can't do the things I once loved anymore because it feels too overwhelming to put in the energy #I've tried ti meditate too to see if that would help but my brain is constantly thinking #so that doesn't help at all #and I have nobody to talk to or interest in any media to help get the creative juices flowing again #AND on top of that everyone in my life just seems set to make sure I'm as miserable as possible 24/7 #ok maybe that last part is just the depressing talking but it does still feel that way #I feel so lost man. I just want to sleep for 2 months straight #sam's rants about life

already posted one fic to ao3 today but might fuck around and post another in another fandom just to keep things spicy

#d speaks #it’s an atla fic that’s literally complete #like i struggled w the ending which is why i put it down when i wrote it in may but it was like. a fairly easy fix actually #and i think im happy with it enough to post it which is fun !!!! #idk might wait until tmw to do so because i don’t feel like tagging and all that rn but #very proud of myself it’s been a productive day in terms of writing #mayhaps tmw if the babies nap at the same time i’ll even get up another chapter of my billy eddie fic #OR finish that one one shot i have 90% done and haven’t touched in two months #i’m working 7-7 tmw i’m probably being ambitious here and really should go to sleep but idk. feelin inspired n shit #also when i post this i will have fics for THREE different fandoms on ao3 which is just so fun!!!! i love that for me!!!!!! #can u believe i didn’t even take my adderall today either?!?!?!?!???????? #insane truly #anyways. i need to go to sleep it’s 11p and i need to be up at 5 but idk i’m just. very excited rn!!!
