any era tom headcannons!
hi guys! so since i don't have enough time to write full segments of stuff, ill be posting either head cannons or my fav pictures from now on… so sorry for the hiatus i went on with no notice but enjoy these!!
Tumblr media
SFW;
he loves it when you sit on his lap. everywhere you go, public eye or not, he opens his legs inviting you to sit on either his knee or on his thighs. depends if you can get home fast enough from wherever you are.
this man is obsessed with public affection. he seriously does not care about what others think when it comes to his relationship. you'll be walking in a crowd of people and his hand will be smack bang on your ass, gripping it, groping it, you get the point.
he sleeps on the left side, always. and he has these reading glasses that have broken MULTIPLE TIMES because everytime he finishes staring at his phone at 2 am, goes to switch of the bedside light, he forgets to take the glasses off and they end up on the floor. he says 'ill get them in the morning', ends up forgetting they are there and steps on them with his fat ahh feet.
his fav cuddle position is def when he can rest his head on your tits, big or small. he loves laying on your chest whilst wrapping his leg around your lower half.
he always needs to be touching something of yours. its almost a subconscious thing, but he has to have his hand or his leg near yours at all times, especially if your in a situation that could make him nervous.
if you knew him from a younger age, growing up together, he would have 100% picked on you more than anyone else around him. you were a girl, its 'funny', but now that hes older, that man will literally kiss the ground you walk on.
your in the car with him? hes driving? horrible idea. he will not only speed to see your scared reaction, but he was also drive with his knees. he does not stop at orange lights at night either, he is going STRAIGHT THROUGH IT, PUMPING THE GAS.
if you were watching a movie and he got real into it, he'd begin just...grabbing at your boobs. not in a sexual way, in a way of "they are there, might as well grip onto them."
NSFW ;
alright. morning sex. all the time. it'd be strange if you didnt have it. he is constantly up against your back, and he'd love having an s/o whos a bit exciting, so extra points to you if you purpusfully gave him one while he was asleep. but god, he would be sloppy in the morning and it would be amazing.
when he finishes, (he would want to do it inside you if you had been dating for years on end, no protection) he bites at your shoulder. doesnt matter what position, hes biting that shit hard as he finishes.
he LOVES licking. idk why, but he does. if your lying there under him, arms stretched to the side, he will take that chance to lick all the way from your belly button, to your neck, up until he reaches your mouth and then continues to shove said tongue down your throat.
he gets pretty aggressive with head i'd say. he loves you doing it, literally his favorite past time, but he would grip onto your scalp so hard and pound himself into you, (ofc, only if youre in the mood for that.)
mirrors? dont even mention them or else he'll have you infront of one and have you begging for more istg. he loves seeing both himself and your fucked out expression as he hits it from the back.
again, toms said this before, but i rlly dont think tom would like you doing the dirty talking, (ofc unless your out at a public dinner on the other side of the table, you send him a dirty msg or sum), but he prefers to hear you scream and ATTEMPT to talk then have you degrading him or sum.

I have cutely resurfaced, now, John Laurens (my beloved) and Alex Kralie with an s/o that's RICH rich, like comes from generational wealth and is very well known
I hope you've been eating or drank some water btw cause you deserve it <33
GUYS!!!! im back! exams are over, and i couldnt be happier. i am sorry to everyone whos adk has been ignored for a long time, ill be working on finishing them. send more! i love writing, epsecially for soneone i know will enjoy it!
also, if theres anyone who likes six of crows.... send that, too. ive been obsessed with them (and shadow and bone, obviously) and i would love to practice writing different characters!
i have drank and ate! thank u sm ily!!!! u deserve it too:) i hope its not a problem i made john in a modern!au:) this also might be a bit diff, idk. im very tired HAHA
please mention if u want headcannons or a oneshot!! i wouldnt want u to be unhappy with any of my works!
John Laurens
You met in college. He didn't like you very much at first- he thought you would be just a stuck-up kid, considering your family's status and wealth.
He could not be more wrong.
You got paired up with him for a project, and he knew that he was gone for the first time you smiled at him.
You quickly became friends. He introduced you to his friends (one of which you already knew; Marquis de Laffayette was quite known amongst the rich).
You started dating shortly after. A little later, you invited him to your house for the first time. He was very nervous, and not just because he would be meeting your parents. He didn't come from the wealthiest family, so this was a new territory to him. What if he said something wrong? Spilt something on himself, or worse, on something accidentally?
His worries quickly vanished when he saw your smile. That smile that could light up the room, the world. He was instantly calmer.
Well, after dating for a while, his birthday came up. Obviously, he told you not to go all out- he didn't want you to think he was with you just for money (even though you wouldn't even think of that).
But, you did go all out. You went on a picnic, went to see a movie, and then, after an eventful day of roaming the streets of New York, you came to your house.
He wasn't expecting anything else. He was wrong, though.
You bought him a turtle.
Alex Kralie
He didn't know you grew up rich. Or were rich, for that matter.
You've been already dating for some time when he started writing the script for Marble Hornets.
When he finished, the only thing that stopped him from actually filming was a crucial thing; he didn't own a camera. And he didn't have actors.
So, obviously, you bought him the best camera that you could get your hands on.
When he saw it, he bawled. And said a lot of thank yous and I love yous.
He asked you how did you get the money for that. In reply, you just told him your family has a literal crest and invited him to meet your parents.
The shock on his face when he saw your childhood house- no, mansion - was quite amusing. You would laugh if it wasn't for the nervosity of your boyfriend meeting your filthy rich parents.
Let's just say that you and your parents never stopped financing him and his ideas. They love him.

“yes, other writers who have smaller blogs would love to have more comments on their fics, but they too would feel annoyed if all the comments they were getting were 'Part 2???'”
OMG YES! i love it when people comment on my fics like so so much but a lot of the times there’s at least a few ‘part 2??’ type of comments. (also a lot of the time the asking for a part 2 is the only engagement they give) while im not opposed to the idea of writing a part two, i usually don’t have any ideas for a part two because most of the things i write are meant to be 1 parters and so if i can’t think of anything sometimes ill ask them what they’d like to see in a part 2 or if they want to send in a request for it but they never respond? i hope it doesn’t seem like i want them to basically come up with the idea for me but im just kinda confused on why people ask for a part 2 on something i wrote when it doesn’t seem like they’re really that serious about wanting to see more because it’s happened at least 3 times now.
anyways, i hope your day is going good (and if it isn’t i hope that changes soon :/ <3) and that those delusional obsessive weirdos learn to fuck off and stop making shit up
okay, idk if people have noticed this, but I have started putting disclaimers on my fics. I have literally had to put disclaimers at the end of my fics saying 'this is meant to be a oneshot, so please to not comment asking for a part 2' - and comments on my oneshots have gone down so much since I started doing this. I have gotten way less comments on my oneshots because of this. (because people don't want to talk about the actual fic, they just want to ask for more.)
because I couldn't handle the mental strain of getting a notification of a comment, getting excited about it, and then opening that comment to see 'part 2?' or 'omg you need to continue this' - when the ending was very purposeful and it was a oneshot for a reason. especially smut. like just because I don't include both partners having an orgasm and pillow talk, people demand that it's incomplete. people saying 'when are you gonna finish this fic' kills me. it is finished. (kill me, please. you need to kill me.)
and like sometimes I never think that I would ever write a second part to a fic, but positive comments encourage it. my Gleggie fic Hold Me Tight Or Don't - a fic where the main character fucking dies - is a very open and shut case for a fic without a sequel. because the main character IS DEAD. but someone in the comments made a joke about being in their 'Ellie Williams era' because they wanted to mentally deny the sad ending, and it sparked a whole idea for me where the reader character is immune and lives instead. and that fic is currently in my drafts and I am excited about finishing it in the future.
that is the power that engaging comments can have - it can spawn a whole new fic from a place where there was a dead end plot with absolutely 0 potential
but yeah, thank you for this message. I hope you're having a good day - my day is mid level, and I hope to have a better day tomorrow.
and for reference, to all fic readers/commenters out there - if you really like a fic and you are really excited about the idea of a possible sequel to it, here is how you go about asking for it:
go to the writer's ask box or their DMs - open up a line of communication that is separate from the comment section of that fic
tell them that you really loved that fic, and tell them a reason why - the writer will want to know that you are supporting their work, and that you're not just asking for more fanfiction because you're bored
politely ask if they would consider writing a sequel or a continuation to that work
and maybe, in the same message, pose some possible ideas or concepts for that follow up
so, something like "hey, I really loved Hold Me Tight Or Don't. I love the way you contrast the themes of sex and death. but I couldn't help but to wonder what would happen if the reader was immune and survived. would you ever consider writing a follow up or a sequel to it? if not, that's okay."
(fyi, even on works where I have said I do not want to make a sequel, I am open to these ^^ kind of messages if you are particularly interested in one of my works having a possible sequel. the circumstances for each of my works having a sequel is different in every case)

3 4 & 9? 🎥
3. What is a film you absolutely despise and why?
ive been thinking about this and idk i do not really absolutely despise any movie i can remember right now. i am a lover at heart. however i have decided to share a somewhat controversial opinion instead which is i think brokeback mountain is really fucking boring and i dont like it. 👍
4. Is there a film that you love except for the ending? What would you change about the ending?
oh i have so many different answers for this but the one most grating to me lately has been tom at the farm. the movie carries this incredible amount of tension and violence i was really into until the last fifteen minutes which feel so bland and out of nowhere. i dont know what the original stage play was like but the movie is so afraid to carry the consequences of its fucked up premise it feels like a betrayal. i watched that movie a whole month ago and im still so upset by it! idk the two of them could have done something terrible to the girl or tom could have let the brother reach him in the final hunt or replaced his boyfriend as a son or ANYTHINGGGG someone needed to die and no one did and the guy with the scar in his face meant nothing to me because it was so fucking obvious from like the first half hour and the movie could have been so solid. but oh well we'll always have chase him through the cornfield spit in his mouth scene
(as an aside i have spent the last month watching xavier dolan films and being disappointed because im obsessed with the idea that he has to have done something really good. and he hasnt truly and some movies i so actively disliked and it upsets me. however im happy about the fact that i have found a writer/director i dislike for his scripts but enjoy for his technical displays. the ratio thing can get gimmicky but also consider: its fun.)
9. What was the last movie you watched? What did you think of it?
i just finished three bewildered people in the night it was fucking cool. i love araki he's like a mutual to me. obviously it's very amateur but so what! it feels like something someone i know could write so its nice to know he went on to do bigger things. but yeah it dragged a bit and the acting failed at times and some of alicias confessions to camera were like. steven from totally fucked up did that better. but its okay because i had fun. bisexuality really makes for an awesome narrative device. i should watch the long weekend o'despair but ive not found it very quickly ill give it another search tonight but if anyone wants to send it to me...

how fictional/famous men i obsess over would fix my current problem (i am stress-freezing in anxiety over a university paper)
(also we're obviously dating and in love and shit just lemme have this)
- jaal ama darav: i would not have this problem bc I'd be in andromeda, but he would make me tea and chocolates and offer to do the majority of the leg work
- liam kosta: would procrastinate with me and then hyperfocus on it with me and we get it finished within the deadline but its a very emotionally taxing journey
- saren arterius: would bribe the prof, and the university for my degree while hes at it
- thane krios: would not help me, but would sit down next to me as I work, see that I am of peak condition to do mental work, pray to [insert fitting drell deity] to let me pass
- zevran arainai: murder the prof
- banck trevelyan (my oc inquisitor): would write my paper for me bc we of similar (read: mediocre, but also below-average eloquence) intelligence and also bc he a bit of a pushover ngl
- dorian pavus: would hand in a paper for me that will get me either 100% or 0%, nothing in between
- jackie welles: would threaten the prof to either give me a passing grade or get beat up within an inch of their life for inconveniencing me
- johnny silverhand: would either tell me to cowgirl up and do it or fight the prof, depending on how fed up he is with either my emotional ass or sth about capitalism commercializing education and the fact that i can barely function even if i have my metnal illnes treated bc this society isn't made for anyone really
- goro takemura: would find some arasaka person to write it for me. if they hand it in with my name on it and i score less than 80% they would be run out of their job
- river ward: "like gurl if you need me to drive you to the library or run for a pizza ill do it but idk how im supposed to help"
dorn il-khan: would kill the prof violently, making it so uni knows to give me 100% if they wish to live
rasaad yn bashir: would dictate me what to write and how to format it from the top of his head. i would get 100%
data: would compile said paper within 0.0173 milliseconds, hand it in, earn me 100%, rinse and repeat with my thesis (would prob be the most thankful for this)
thranduil oropherion: "bitch you're the queen you're not writing anything ill exile the bastard who dares assign you papers. the gall."
kim nam joon: would find me the materials i need and will proof-read and fix what he thinks needs fixing, bounce ideas back and forth with me, would realistically be the most productive help in the long-term, but i would whine about it bc he wont just use his big brain to write the damn paper for me
dustin bates: "you need a topic to write about Ill give you one" (would proceed to drop the most heartwrenching track in the history of everything, on which i would hyperfixate and get nothing done and fail)

writer questions!
nobody tagged me but I love this crap and am technically a writer so lets do it.
1. what’s your favourite genre to write?
Oooooo romance obviously, but more specifically I like writing fics that focus a lot on character analysis? 
2. do you pull inspiration from real-life, or do you pull things from other books/fanfic?
I write a lot of AUs, but I do get a lot of inspiration from songs. I’ll also work in headcanons I see on tumblr and stuff 
3. do you tend to write one-shots, short stories, or longer things?
I always want to write multi-chapter fics, but struggle to finish them. It’s a goal of mine to write more one shots instead of dedicating myself to 20k+ fics.
4. do you prefer description or dialogue?
DIALOGUE!!! I used to be obsessed with writing texting fics which gave me a lot of experience with dialogue, while leaving my description skills to suffer.
5. favourite fanfic/book of all time?
Bro. Impossible question, but my current favourite book is The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt. My favourite series is Six of Crows or  The Raven Cycle. 
As for fics...I’m gonna forget so many BUT I’ll give you one for each of my top ships on AO3
1. Andrew and Neil (All for the Game):  Those That Broke Us by  WriteThroughTheNight  ( https://archiveofourown.org/works/9095254:)
 This is atypical for me since it’s not romance focused, but is rather focused on Neil’s trauma from his mother and him realizing that the way she treated him was not okay. 
Also shoutout to every “andreil fake rivalry fic” it is one of the few times I read established relationship and I eat it up every time.
2: Adam and Ronan (The Raven Cycle): while we're on the subject, could we change the subject now by  shinealightonme (https://archiveofourown.org/works/12643005)
A truly adorable neighbour AU. Honestly Pynch was one of the toughest to pick a favourite for. 
3. Mickey and Ian (Shameless): I couldn’t decide between Fucked for Life by  Awritersmind (https://archiveofourown.org/works/21800806/chapters/52022443) 
An interesting twist on the coffee shop AU where Mickey and Ian fall in love as adults rather than teens. 
I read this a while ago, but I was OBSESSED it made me fall in love with the idea of Artist! Mickey and I loved how they wrote his relationship with his sister Mandy.
 and None the wiser by Loftec
 (https://archiveofourown.org/works/4856489/chapters/11128907
Again I read this a while ago, but it is a diner AU and just utterly delightful. I love reading fics where Mickey had a good relationship with his son and this is is a really good one. 
4: Remus and Sirius (Harry Potter)- My actual favourite Wolfstar fic has disappeared and is a Greatest British Bake off AU where Remus has fibromyalgia so if you know where to find it please let me know. 
BUT a close second is Text Talk by  merlywhirls (https://archiveofourown.org/works/1651109/chapters/3501239)
If I’m having a shitty day I’m re-reading Text-talk. it’s that simple. It’s a wrong number AU where they muggles in the modern day and Remus is home schooled due to his health.
5: Boris and Theo (The Goldfinch)- They Fuck (it up) by  colish3
( https://archiveofourown.org/works/33547123/chapters/83356504) 
A gorgeous fic about Theo dealing with the aftermath of the book, and maybe accepting his feelings for Boris. 
6: Ben and Devi (Never Have I ever)- all the magic we gave off by  transfiguredtoad
Bevi trying their best to not still be into each other while in other relationships. Super addicting tbh. 
6. favorite trope?
Wrong number! Enemies to Lovers! Fake Dating! There was only one bed! I’m a simple girl tbh. when writing I especially like writing about chronic illness but idk if that counts as a trope.
7. are you the kind of person to work on more than one wip?
Not successfully. If I start another fic the first one won’t be touched again til I’ve finished my new fic if ever again. 
8. how long have you been writing for?
Since I was 14 so almost 9 years, but that has definitely not been continuous. I’ve gone years without writing anything.
9. do you tend to write more during the morning, afternoon, or evening?
I get an idea and write whenever I can until it’s either done or I’ve gotten distracted rather than having a set time of the day. 
10. do you prefer to post your wip chapter by chapter, or do you prefer to wait until your wip is 100% finished before posting?
I prefer to finish everything first because I’ve found I won’t finish otherwise. Besides I like being able to go back and change stuff. 
im tagging  @furoruisa and  @siriuslynotovermarauders   🙈  feel free to ignore this if it aint your thing. I also challenge anyone else who wants to give it a try.

I JUST DIED OMG MY FRIEND. dude omg bro okay dude so like dude bro!!!
my friend has been dating this guy right, and she had their first kiss like literally yesterday (i SWEAR im going somewhere w this) but basically she asked him to whistle and yk when u whistle you pucker out your lips?? SHE STRAIGHTUP LIKE KISSED HIM.
idk if this counts as a request but i swear it isnt u dont have to reply to this if it seems like one!! 😭😭
but omg what would the bonedos reaction be. LIKE I CAN SEE JAEHYUN EITHER STUCK IN THE 😗 FACE OR HES JUST LIKE 😧.
-🍉
STOP IT YOUR FRIEND IS SO BOLD OMG can she give me tips on how to rizz up yungyu like that🤔🤔
also i love love the bonedo boys with that, i dont consider this much of a req especially if im not formatting it all aesthetically HAHA so ill give u a little smidge here ^_^
also sorry if i went overboard or its bad LMAOO its like midnight almost 1 am here💔💔
sungho :
- this man is obsessed with you and he would quite literally do anything for you.
- he definitely didnt want to rush into kissing because he believes in the art of slow burn
- and though he would never admit to it he does really want to kiss you
- "sunghoooo do you know how to whistle? i've been trying to learn all day.."
- "darlings it's easy, you basically pucker your lips like this and-"
- you lean in to land a soft kiss on his lips, interrupting his train of thought
- i think bro feels like he just got hit with a heat wave bc he didn't know he could blush this much
- at first he wanted your guys first kiss to be special, but your quirky charm and tactics you used to get him right where you wanted him is what made him fall in love in the first place
- "gahh you're so cute darling, i might have to teach you to whistle more often."
riwoo :
- i don't think riwoo is the type to initiate a first kiss, not unless he was pep talked by jae or something (come on, jae is everyones wingman)
- he loves you so much, and i know as soon as that first is out of the way he will not be able to stop kissing you
- it's kinda early in the morning and today you are going with riwoo to the studio!
- birds are chirping, singing their lil song, which gives you an idea; very sudden, but an idea
- "riwoo you kinda remind me of a bird."
- "what's that supposed to mean?" he pouts.
- "nothing bad! you're just so cute whenever you are all smiley and singing its like a little bird tweeting. bet you could whistle like one too."
- "i think my singing is probably better than my whistling." he looks over at you to demonstrate, but you're already looking right back at him!
- taking him aback slightly, you plant a little kiss on his puckered lips then quickly skip ahead of him
- hes very dumbfounded, but already plotting in his head how he's going to attack you with kisses (in private, doesnt give me much of a pda guy besides holding hands ^^;)
jaehyun :
- this man has been secretly plotting against you to catch you in the most perfect first kiss ever
- unlike woonhak, he wants to kiss u with permission.. and on ur adorable lips (referencing the funnextdoor vid where he kisses woons head LMAOO)
- little does he know you're also planning to outsmart his ass
- the two of you are playing a game on the console in the living room, getting slightly competetive
- "if i win you have to sing me to sleep tonight!" you say mashing on the keys of your controller
- "babyyy you know i already do that for you."
- "guess i got you wrapped around my finger then!" you smile, passing the finish line with a big '1ST PLACE' on your screen.
- "this game is rigged!"
- "less talking more singing pretty boy" you snuggle yourself into the makeshift bed on the couch, jae on the floor with his back against the bottom part, looking up at you.
- "okay what song?"
- "the one i like with the whistling in the beginning."
- as jaehyun puckers out his lips to start, you lean in quickly to catch a kiss
- he has zero reaction, maintaining the same face you caught him in, before his jaw dropped
- you were giggling so hard as he gets up from his spot on the floor to heave himself on top of you
- "i was supposed to initiate our first kiss, babyyy!" he whines, leaning in to kiss your lips again
taesan :
- bro wants to actually kiss you so bad
- im a firm believer in down bad taesan
- and he really wants to kiss you
- but he doesnt want to make you uncomfortable, so whenever he finds himself pulling up your chin to look at him, he only smiles and pulls away
- part of you wanted him to kiss you, but you had a slightly better idea
- taesan was on the floor customizing a pair of shoes. he was whistling quietly to himself before stopping
- "hey what was that tune you were whistling? sounded pretty."
- "you're prettier, but it was just something i came up with last night." he responds fondly.
- you came and sat next to him on the floor, admiring his work.
- "can you do it again please?"
- "only for you love."
- he begins whistling, and you let him for a second because of how gorgeous the tune sounds
- but before you know it, youre pulling up his chin with the infinite rizz you have and kissing him on the lips
- BUT NO. he doesnt let you pull away
- he just smiles into the kiss, pulling you closer to him (and probably getting paint on the back of your head)
leehan :
- i think bro would be easiest to trick with this
- i feel like it might be obvious where i'm gonna go with this.. LMAO
- i am an avid supporter of the leehan fish prince agenda
- he is so in love with you, just as much as his fishies in his little aquarium
- one day you come visit him in the dorms, walking in to see him just admiring the small fish
- he sees the movement of your reflection in the glass, so when you come sit next to him he isn't very shocked
- "you're so interesting when you admire your tank."
- "am i?"
- "yup, you're starting to look like one too."
- "hey! taesan told me that yesterday."
- "give me your best fish face to really seal the deal," you giggle, "kinda like you're whistling!"
- he obliges, pursing his lips into a little kissy face, before you can lean your own lips against his!
- bros entire life played in his head he almost lost his chill guy persona
- leehan was staring at you with so much fondness as he was zoning out you almost got a little worried
- "hannie- hannie!"
- "you are so perfect, y/n." he grins, pulling you into another kiss (in front of his fish children smh)
woonhak :
- this might be a hot take but i think woonhak is similar to riwoo when it comes to first kisses. unless jae is there to hype him up he wont do it
- of course he wants to kiss you, he enjoys affection and god especially when it's with you
- nothing you could ever do would make him look away, you're just so you.
- on a fine ol day, you're sitting with him at the park hanging out!!
- both of you are kinda stuttery, but the conversation ends up flowing fast. neither of you know whether this hangout is considered as your first date as a couple, hence the nervousness
- nonetheless, you are both laughing and just enjoying each others company
- but NO!! you want something a tad bit more
- "hey this might be a weird question but erm-- can you whistle for me?"
- "oh-- yeah of course! what for?"
- "you'll see!" you squeak out
- woon is slightly skeptical, but follows through anyways, puckering his lips to start whistling, before nothing is able to leave his lips!
- a roadblock warning he didnt see: your own lips!
- the kiss is fast, but bro is stunned
- mrs rabbit has fainted
- mrs rabbit has fainted again
- he is lowkey stressed a little, but it turns into relief. smiling so wide the whole neighborhood could see <3

nine years of drawing with a digital art tablet baeby! i have some older traditional/non-tablet digital pieces as well but i dunno what year they’re from. i’ll make a more complete yearly progress chart next year.
overall, i’m pretty okay with things considering it’s just a hobby.
it’s still a bit frustrating to see that i peaked with pretty stuff in 2018, but as i said before i’ve improved a lot more in other ways and i don’t think i’d be happy with myself if i kept just drawing pretty faces with boring compositions.
before i compiled this, my feeling was that i thought i did really well in 2020. but that was just the year my posts did well on social media (did well for ME). looking back, there wasn’t really anything complete and unique that i liked a lot. and i thought i kinda flopped in 2021 ‘cause i didn’t post all that much, but i’m really happy with my output that year TBH. i want to draw more fun scenes and pictures with deep feelings!
the time i spend on a complete piece has decreased a lot because i’m more concerned with having an interesting atmosphere over making sure the rendering and anatomy is perfect. also, i’ve just gotten quicker at drawing overall. i always try to keep it under 10 hours nowadays unless it’s got lineart... that shit makes it take so much longer orz.
2022 kinda felt like a flop again, aw man. i kinda forgot that i spent a good part of the early year drawing a whole korekiyo dojinshi? i felt really down about it at the time since i was utterly unmotivated (it’s fucking korekiyo i don’t know how i cared enough about him to draw a whole comic about him), but now i’m like... woah... people actually enjoyed that? i sold out of all 28 copies i had printed, so now i’m considering reprinting it again. who knows...
anyway i got an ipad this year and started using procreate so i sketched a good bit more. i finished dai gyakuten saiban, got motivated by my chemical romance, and completed a bunch of stuff i was pretty proud of in a single week. unfortunately completing dai gyakuten saiban also made me fall in love with barok van zieks for some reason so i basically spent the second half of the year just drawing self-ship art and van zieks pr0n. it’s not even crap worth posting.
i feel like i didn’t complete or post that much (at least on my main account) because of that. but actually, i always forget i have more finished pieces for zines that i don’t post... idk if i should admit it but i use zines as a way to motivate myself to finish stuff honestly. i think without that i’d flop even more and not get me to draw anything... but i will stop doing that from now on because i don’t feel satisfied with my artistic output drawing for zines. bleh.
last year i was obsessed with making dojinshi and this year i got into merch stuff since i was tabling at a convention for the first time, but honestly...! it’s a pain in the ass!!! i don’t want to bother with maintaining an online store and i don’t want to create products for the sake of creating products so i’m only gonna make what i personally want from now on.
so i spent 75+ hours rendering a barok van zieks dakimakura.
I WANT TO THROW UP!!! IT’S SO SICKENING TO ME THAT THE PIECE I’VE SPENT THE MOST TIME ON EVER IS A FUCKING VAN ZIEKS DAKIMAKURA!!!! HE’S NOT EVEN IN MY TOP 5 ACE ATTORNEY CHARACTERS!!!!!!!!!! preorder link in my bio btw.
that was just 2 weeks ago basically, but i felt so fucking ill about it. luckily i finished off the year with a nice complete drawing so i’m happy and i love myself again ^_^
i want to focus on 3D art next year, draw more complete scenes, get around to my drawing idea backlog... get into some new fucking media because i am sick of that white man cursing me for the past six months. yep yep!

Yoinking an open tag from @bloodgulchblog!
I've never met a tag game that's specifically about fandom, I just had to fill it out.
Tagging @totally-not-an-awkward-okapi and @nitr09-productions and @south-sea and @ow-old-men, along with anyone else who manages to see this between all of the Sonic reblog spam.
Your name: Call me Measly!
Your current fandom(s): Anybody checking my reblog spam knows that I am neck fucking deep in the Sonic fandom right now. Which I must say, is not the lowest I've ever been- one of my prior fandoms was League of Legends, somehow.
How did you first get into fandom?: Deviantart.com baby!! A really pretty girl in 6th grade introduced me to the website, and one day I finally worked up the courage to enter my favorite show at the time (Transformers Prime) into the search bar. I discovered that I was not the only girl in the world who experience the Blorbo Emotions and that blew my mind.
How long have you been engaging in fandom spaces?: Since 6th grade, as mentioned before. However, honorary mention- my mom is actually a part of the fandom old guard. She's been reading fanfic since before I was born. Strange thought, isn't it?
How often do you read fanfics?: About every week, I say. I usually find new stuff here on tumblr, and I troll the depths of AO3 every week and a half or so. (I usually just tend to tear through every fic that's been tagged with my favorite niche character and then get sad about it.)
Top three characters from your current fandom(s):
Anybody who's even glanced at my reblog spam knows that it's all going to be Sonic characters. More specifically, my beloved Metal Sonic, is #1. Obsessed with this funky identity crisis dude. He's the one I'm writing a literal novel for right now, because you can fit so much goddamn angst, mental illness, and daddy issues into this one robot it's not even remotely funny.
In close second is Omega. This is another robot built by the same guy in universe as Metal, by the way, so he's got a similar yet different flavor of angst going on. Omega was hit with the typical "you are what you choose to be" arc that most fictional robots undergo, except his choice was "I WANT TO COMMIT MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF VIOLENCE. AND ALSO MAYBE MAKE FRIENDS BUT DON'T TELL ANYBODY THAT" and that fascinates me deeply.
Number 3 is, uh, idk? Kind of a toss-up. Probably a tie between Shadow (who's the traditional pick for a hurt/comfort character in this fandom) or Silver (optimistic time traveler dude who is just. so tragic sometimes.)
Have you ever written fic for a fandom?:
BOY HAVE I EVER-
The longest fanwork I've written so far is sitting pretty at around 44,000 words (it's an incredibly niche crossover between Babylon 5 and Knight Rider). My current WIP (the aforementioned one starring Metal Sonic), however, just broke 50k yesterday and I'm not even remotely close to finishing.
But yeah- I've been writing since 6th grade. Here's my very first ever fanfiction by the way, if you want an idea of how far I've come (or a good laugh.)
Have you ever drawn fanart for a fandom?:
I can count on one hand how many times I've tried. I can count on zero hands how many times I've succeeded.
Share a personal headcanon that you feel very strongly about:
If you follow my Sonic sideblog, you'll see all of my headcanons projectile-blasted at you daily.
Additionally, most of my headcanons are pretty fluid. I LOVE enjoying multiple interpretations of the same character, even and especially if they're contradictory. There's only been, like, two that I've ever been super crazy about.
The one that I'm weirdest about right now is Metal Sonic being some flavor of trans. This is the character that, upon gaining the ability to redesign their body however they wanted in canon, gave themselves long hair, a skirt, and a big dragon alternate mode. If that doesn't scream "transgender" for you, I don't know what will.
And finally, what does fandom mean to you?:
Fandom is a place where I get to share the joy of creation with other people! My favorite thing in the universe to do is "yes, and" people and develop ideas together. My second favorite thing in the universe to do is to encourage creators to tell me more about their fuckin' awesome ideas. My third favorite thing in the universe is seeing people react to my own work. I'm just writing the stories that make me happy, man, so to see people enjoying it brings me so much joy.

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Let’s spread the self-love 💗
Hey, hi anon!! Thanks a lot for this, I enjoy gushing as much as any fic writer :3
#1 and closests to my heart, is Fathers and Daughters
You can tell I was mentally ill about it, because I'm forever struggling to finish WIPs, the ADHD constantly going "Oooh shiny new idea? Just take a break, this will be a one shot" only to lie to me, or do it X times in a row. But not with F&D. I stayed glued on to that one.
Yeah I had a couple long hiatus, but I'm finally working on the last chapter and I can tell you I'm going to be taking myself out to dinner to congratulate lol
I passed 100k words!!! I never thought I'd manage. I don't think I'll ever manage again!
#2 Then the dreadful night shall break
A Dark!Obi-Wan fic. I had for a long time this back and forth with a friend, where we kept gifting each other more and more tortured Star Wars fics. So I originally made this a one shot focusing on the horrors of sleep deprivation (from first hand experience…) and how it might break even the kindest of Jedi.
Things snowballed and got out of hand, and it turned into what I think is my best Star Wars story. It's also titled after a line in Cradle Song by William Blake. I am weirdly obsessed with naming fics from his poems. Only him. IDK why.
#3 Never Too Late
Another SW story but on the other end of the spectrum, focusing on H/C. Set right after Episode 1, with Obi-Wan reaching out to Dooku, who hasn't turned to the dark yet. It's my second most kudoed fic ever after the 100k words one, so you know I was cooking and people liked the taste of it.
In general I love writing reluctant father figures, and Dooku - Obi - Anakin, at that time and place, are like the holy trifecta of reluctant daddies lol
#4 For Always
My Elden Ring masterpiece and foray into Monsterfucking. I was very sauced for "pubber" Maliketh the Black Blade, even before I played the game. I owe a lot to my friend Spiced for this one--without them there wouldn't be much fucking in this fic! I just like tragic hee-heem-whimper men and Maliketh is that but also with a broken mind, rags, a raspy voice, and paws large enough to make a doll out of us sooooooooooo…..
The irony is that this story has some of my most purple and stuffy prose, despite how horny I make it out to be. I really enjoyed this writing style.
Would you stay with him, henceforth? Would you cast away your humanity, sacrifice your mortality to give him companionship? Would you twine your fate to his? How you'd laughed, naive little thing, telling him that it was no sacrifice. You hadn't known better then, and he, a god, knew even less. He kissed you and licked at your throat. He felt you shiver and asked once more if you truly wanted this. You wanted him and immortality at his side seemed close enough. So you said yes, and he clamped his jaws down on your throat and killed you—one last time.
The sauce stings my eyes to this day. This is the good shit. I wish I could brainrot on characters like this at will.
#5....
This one is impossible to pin down. I have stories where I'm really proud of the writing. Stories where, like the one above, I still really taste the sauce, and the dynamic really appeals to me. Got plenty like that which would easily fit in 5th place. I could also mention the ones I still have very much on the fire, simmering even if they haven't updated in a while.
Fuck it. I'll go for Chosen.
A one shot I wrote while in Florence, often sitting out on a little balcony… It was such a nice place and such a sweet time… And I packed the story with these (bitter) sweet feelings and tried to explore what would happen with Anakin died killing Grievous, leaving Obi-Wan lost, and Ahsoka fearing nobody will chose to take her on again.
It also has some of my favourite prose ever, in the way I wrote (for the second and better time) the backstory of major blorbo Taron Malicos. Nobody ever cares about this bit but I think it's the best part of the fic LOL
Thanks again anon! I'm spreading the love now in my mooties' ask box.

I usually play videogames with no audio cuz when I have it on I get easily bored. For example last month I started pokemon sword and tbh never played it with vol on and when I did that for the first time I was like “? Why the sounds are so annoying?”. Idk probably I’m weird but I get easily overwhelmed with sounds. It’s kinda funny because when I listen to music I listen to black metal/rock in general. But when I’m busy drawing things I like to listen to true crime podcasts. Yeah I’m one of those obsessed with serial killers cases.
And yeah, fear and hunger is just straight up hard. I was surprised the first time but I’m still trying to finish it (I want to die/hj). So far I’m loving sm hades! The character designs are so pretty? Ofc I like Dionysus the most, he was and still is my favorite icon. Just to ask, who’s your fav greek mythological figure? I’m curious. Personally I’m also extremely into the myth of Hyacinth the most. Probably I read too many graphic novels about him ahah. And! Are you perhaps also into egyptian mythology? Since I was a kid I was so obsessed with mummies and the first time I saw one I was so anxious lol.
When I was in school I also had problems at school, mostly because at the time I was the only emo kid and all my classmates were… normal? I liked to dress black, enjoyed spending time writing horror stories and I was a major creepypasta lover. But I genuinely sucked at oral tests. Probably you only had some random quizzes but where I live we also have oral ones. And I fucking hated to speak in front of people. So drawing during classes was a sort of stress relief to my anxiety! So I completely get you :(
This is funny but I always was extremely talented at singing, although at some point I started to find annoying to perform in front of people. And in general the idea of studying in theater looked “uncool” in my teen years. Now I completely changed opinion and I’m a musical fan lol. My family always tried to push me into trying this world in some ways through the years and only some months ago I finally decided to open up. It’s scary tho. You shouldn’t gave up your dreams. Realistically speaking you can start studying in the future if you really want to pursuit violin! ^^
What are you doing now? I hope everything’s going well! <3 -🩹
i always play with audio on since a lot of games i play have audio cues into it, but i understand sometimes the game sounds can be annoying
god me too, to all of the music and the true crime; i mainly liten to true crime at work tho or when im playing minecraft for some strange reason
it sounds like a pain but i so get that,,
my favorite always has been aphrodite and always will be <3
i used to be kinda an egyptian myth nerd but i would have to relearn a lot tbh
sometimes we had presentations tests so i think thats as close to relating with the oral tests but the rest i totally understand
my family is kinda controlling of what i do, if they dont like that i picked up a hobby or something they let me know, like cosplaying for example i find it really difficult because my dads a little creepy and my mom refuses to acknowledge or be arpund me if she notices that i am and its to the point that it becomes a really big problem in my house so now ive got like really expensive cosplays and o barely do it anymore to keep some peace in my house ueue when i move out ill probably pick up a lot of my old hobbies like cosplay, art, streaming, and music stuff maybe ill even pick back up baking who knows!
im still playing dead space tbh,, its so fun but i just asked my brother a steam question and he closed out of dead space so i just lost a good chunk of progress sigghhhh, i hope your days been going well too though :D tell me if you do anything fun <3

Oh! I did message you in instant messages. I can't always remember who I message someone. And I know that I send long messages that not everyone likes. So there's also that reason too.
Yeah. The High&Low franchise came out eight years ago. So you wish there was more people who still created content for the H&L fandom.
Which is bizarre to me? Because High&Low was a popular franchise when it came out, but now there seems to be nothing for the fandom. Especially because there are similarities between High&Low, Worst and Tokyo Revengers. Pretty boys who are delinquents. [I've only ever seen the Worst crossover movie with High&Low, not even the original series. So I can't comment much on Worst.]
Chimknj also wrote another High&Low story. Well.. There story would be a one shot, a one chapter story. Not that you have to read it. But it is a smutty story between Rocky and his girlfriend (original character) - during the events of the first movie.
And, I think, there is a person who's under the name FireOfJudgment on here. They have H&L stories, and AIB stories too. But I don't know what characters or ships they write for though. In case you may want to search their work. They might be an option for you.
It's best for me to write notes for ideas to stories, and characters, and who knows what else while being involved in the fandom. Because if I try writing when I'm not in any fandom, then my thoughts and ideas... I became fickle and scattered on what I want to write. It's a problem.
Being in a fandom makes me more focused to write for that fandom. If that makes any sense.
I mean.. The color coordination to my characters was accidental for me. Because I tend to go for a specific appearance for my characters, I was very adamant about using those people for my face claims but I wasn't sure for what fandom - and I probably will use them for a lot of other fandoms too. Most likely. But not sure which other fandoms yet though. Anyway. Anyway.. But one person's favorite color is blue, one is orange, and another is red which eventually became their signature colors. So I unconsciously connected them to their respective gangs, which is kinda funny because their personalities actually seem fitting for those gangs too. And since the High&Low cast of characters have been predominantly men, I wanted more female characters involved in the story. But there have been a few things I've been stick on lately.
i am just hella awful at answering my private messages. i’ll be like ‘ill reply to that in a bit’ and then completely forget.
it’s just weird. like fandoms used to stick around for longer and h&l is still relatively recent. like 2016 wasn’t even a decade ago yet! everybody go watch h&l and feel emotions you didn’t expect about a pretty boy gang show. the song ‘break into the dark’ literally got me F*cked Up, everybody go watch the unofficial music video.
i will absolutely go read a smutty fic, that’s half of what i’ve been reading lately anyway. love me an explicit fic. and rocky has grown on me, do really like that dude.
i used to be really good at writing short original stories, but now i find it a bit harder. need that high school inspired brain back. fanfics do come a bit easier for me, but i also second guess myself a lot and some stuff i don’t end up posting or even finishing. which is a shame bc it’s supposed to be a fun hobby. i definitely need a fandom to obsess over or i just go totally blank in the brain.
im so bad at colour coordinating my ocs, i can rarely ever decide on what colour suits them best. idk if anyone’s noticed how many light blue or pink characters i have ahsjdl. my own h&l oc kinda started as an oya oc and then developed into something more and got switched around a bit, i think i’m mostly happy with where she’s at rn tho. im having a lot of fun with her.
h&l is definitely lacking in the female character department. like even the strawberry milk girls don’t get a whole lot of screen time like i thought they would, which is a shame bc i think they’re cool and i love pink. i think naomi got the most screen time out of all the girls and even that wasnt a whole lot. n-e-way yamato’s mum and the bartender lady are, like, definitely gfs tho, that’s my hc.

consciousness streaming !! (this is is my thing now im claiming it, just imagine i wrote this in one of those medieval times scrolls with ink-y calligraphy all pretty)
but to the point!! i have finally finished accomplice, i did like a few hours ago but it was 3 am when i did so i fell asleep as soon as the last words crossed my eyes 💀
i do know that i wanted to tell u that i LOVE the way u write bed sharing, its so special and cute and important and ah! giddy feelings
its rare the times i see the characters talking so much when they r "forced" to share a bed, normally its just "oh just dont sleep in the couch and sleep here with a whole pillow mural in the middle and not talk abt it in the morning" and that's it
so this was v nice, refreshing or something like that
also couldn't help to keep thinking of the parallels between accomplice and inffqth, its like two different universes but still two different families? just, it would be funny to see both clash, imagine nancy and kate in the same room, i feel like they would get along really well, they would just make fun of dnf and their "life altering sex" (that is getting stuck in my head forever btw)
i saw that u mentioned that u would maybe one day write an epilogue, idk if that idea is still in ur mind but if if u do choose to do it one day ill be the first click, 99.8% sure cus i dont trust my internet to be fast enough
but point is i loved accomplice and anything related to the au will be good ik it
but yes, i have finished all scoops's dnf content, i am fic-less now this is a tragedy, and during my medieval times letter too this is just unacceptable /j
ill finish writing now dw, no more talking, i talk a lot
subscribed to u so if u ever write something else ill be reading and who knows maybe i send another anonymous ask or just write my long-ass paragraphs on the comments (ill try im just shy)
thanks again for sharing such nice stories with us!! stay safe :]
My super sweet and endearing anon! Hi hello! I’m glad you liked accomplice :) so you can see now I’m obsessed with family drama/trauma lol. I loved imagining Nancy and Chloe from accomplice at falling!georges surprise birthday party for Dream and watch the chaos that ensues. I think they’d all get along. Nancy and Kate would immediately bond and make Dream and George suspicious.
Thank you for sending your thoughts, I have been treasuring them. I’ve got a one shot coming soon if I can find the inspiration to finish it. I hope you’ll see that soon on your subscriptions (so flattering, thank you!!!)
You are always welcome here, on anon, off anon, in my comments, very happy to have you reading :)

whats ur writing schedule/process like! not in a “write faster” way, but i think once you mentioned writing in script form? and i like the way you wrote ur most recent fic! just curious bc ur works are just really good :)
this is a great question!!
if its not slippery slopes, ill usually get an idea for something and periodically jot down notes when they come to me until I feel like i have enough information to start writing (or if im just motivated), that's what i did for my horror challenge rewrite. and for stuff that's like... rewrites of an episode that aren't as character-focused as slippery slopes, i usually read the episode transcripts and try to replicate that total drama style with my own writing
for shorter oneshots, i usually just get a vague idea and run with it until i find a good ending spot, then i go back and clean it up a bit so the structure works
slippery slopes is an... interesting cycle. chapters are getting long enough that i cant just write them in one sitting any more (i think ch5 was the last chapter i did that for) and instead ill agonize over the beginning (always the hardest part to write for me) but once i get going with that i usually finish the chapter within a few days. then i reread the previous chapter to make sure it flows ok (and there aren't any contradictions) and then ill give myself a break where i dont do anything total drama related before coming back to edit and post. though before I do all that I type up notes and rough dialogue bits
and then once i post it it's like... a weight off my chest? like ive been purged or something?? idk its a weird sensation but im just like i Physically Cannot Write Anything For This Right Now and i don't start on the next chapter until that goes away. and then i either start the beginning and do nothing for a week before going back and finishing the chapter or i go into a manic state and write nonstop for a few days. right now i haven't reached a point where im ready to begin writing chapter 10 but i have a lot of notes for it.
(also as soon as i finish posting a chapter i try not to go on my laptop for like 12 hours so i don't obsessively refresh my email for comments. i love reading comments so much holy shit. please comment guys it makes fic authors feel so happy we will love you for it)
as for scripts: i am working on being a writer professionally, but specifically a playwright. writing in a script format comes more naturally to me than writing prose. funnily enough, i started posting fanfic just to practice my prose (and fix stuff in cobra kai that i didnt like) but things sort of... ended up here? idk man but im enjoying it.
right, so because writing in a script format is easier when im really struggling with a section in a fic ill usually scrap whatever i had and write it like a script, then translate that into prose. i was very excited to write the family videos for chapter 9 of slippery slopes, but i was Having Issues, so i redid it as a script and then rewrote that as prose. ill put the script version under the cut if you're interested in that.
but thank you so much for the question!! i do think my writing process is a bit unconventional but hey i think things are turning out well! if you have any more questions feel free to send them in!!
ok here is the last scene of ch 9 of slippery slopes in script format:
[SIERRA]
MOM: Hi honey! Omigosh this is so exciting! I bet you’re having such a great time! Especially since Chris is there! Is Chris watching this? Hi Chris! You know, I loooved you on that ice skating show. Your hair was fantastic! Well, it always is, haha. Do you really make your own hair gel? I’ve been trying to perfect the recipe but you’re just so hard to track down! Oh, you’re such a funny guy! I laughed sooo hard when you made all those jokes about marrying Chef.
Chef: hey!
Chris: ok just for the record, I wasn’t joking, we are married, Sierra tell your mom we’re married
Sierra: …can we just turn it off please
[COURTNEY]
DAD: Courtney, sayang, I know you’ve been going through a lot right now—
MOM: So you’d BETTER make it count. You’ve made it this far before, I want to see you getting all the way to the finale this time. And winning it. Enough moping about those hideous, good-for-nothing slackers! That’s what you get for hanging around freaks like them. You’re doing this for the million, now get the million. Is that clear?
ZARINA: And kick ass!
DAD: Zarina!
Video cuts out.
Alejandro: courtney you good?
Courtney: no, she’s right. Mama didn’t raise no quitter
Alejandro: [knows she’s still upset about duncan and gwen]
[ALEJANDRO]
MOM: Hola, Alejandro. We hope you are doing well, especially in such unsavory conditions. I’m glad to see you’ve made it to the final four— we expected nothing less, of course.
DAD: You have been utilizing your skills quite well. Though I wish you hadn’t been so… blatant about it. You’ll have to work twice as hard once this is over to convince people you’re trustworthy. But surely you were aware of that going into this… odd endeavor. That’s just politics. Reputation is everything.
JOSE: [snorts] Oh, and what a reputation you have, Al. I could easily compile hours of footage of your failures, but I, unlike you, do not waste my time on the frivolities of reality television. Though you always have been lacking in taste. Especially with that bratty girlfriend of yours— oh, my mistake, aren’t you dating the whiny weakling? It’s so hard to keep track! [laughs]
Alejandro: callate!
MOM: I’m sure Alejandro is just working an angle on them.
DAD: Whatever the case is, do not disappoint us.
[NOAH]
MOM: Hi Noah, I’m sorry, I don’t have time to record a full video, but I’m proud of you! Here are your sisters!
ISWARI: A million dollars? A million [bleep] dollars? Win it, Noah! Win it!
RUTH: Dude!! This is crazy! I know you can do this— good luck! Ark misses you! [holds up Ark who barks]
MARA: Are you insane? Why aren’t you dating Alejandro already?
Noah: shut up, mara, just because you can’t keep a boyfriend—
ANYA: Don’t let ‘em trick you! No mercy! Crush their skulls if you have to— no, wait, you’re not strong enough for that. We’ll get there!
LIYA: I say this as your sister, someone who loves you but is constantly annoyed by you— for someone who is quite literally a genius, you sure can be an idiot sometimes.
BALLARI: Okay, I literally have no idea how you’ve made it this far without an athletic bone in your body— are we sure you aren’t adopted? I’m kidding
ABS: You’re stubborn as hell when it comes to me, so you better be stubborn as hell when it comes to winning! And when you do win, get me a frozen yogurt machine, will you? I promise I won’t make you rock climb again!
JAEL: If you lose this, I’ll kill you with this racket. And then use your guts to make myself a new racket. So don’t fuck it up. Again.
Noah: [frozen, ashamed]
Sierra: well that was a mess
Courtney: ok show of hands, who felt better after hearing that? [no one raises hands]
Chris: yeah I was expecting this to be a lot more heartwarming…
Chef: chris just look at them. If they had stable home lives they wouldn’t be doing reality tv
Alejandro: can we please stop talking about this. Also aren’t you supposed to be flying the plane
Chef: oh fuck
Chris: yeah sure. I think im gonna call my mom
Everyone: …
Noah: ok so that was really shitty. Why dont we all go to first class and try and ignore our problems
Everyone: yeah ok sounds good
***
Courtney: so that sucked
Alejandro: at least your dad seems ok
Courtney: true. What are your guys dads like
Noah and Sierra: bold of you to assume I know my dad. Jinx
***
Alejandro: that last girl… you mentioned a sister who does tennis and hates you
Noah: yep
Alejandro: why?
Noah: none of your business. but… it is pretty justified
