Congrats all round 9 spn masquerade creators! The fill period is over with. We made it!!! 🙌🙌🙌 Now everybody can sit back and enjoy all the fills.
I believe creators can now post their works elsewhere now if they choose to. I’ll be posting all my fills to ao3 sooner or later. (I got to make five this round. 💪)
But in the meantime, I definitely encourage everyone reading this to go to the masquerade’s pinboard and enjoy and make a comment about your enjoyment, anon or not, on the fills that speak to you. There’s a lot of great works this round.
There’s also previous round works to look at. Unfortunately you can’t comment on previous rounds because each round only allows a limited window to get feedback (and not all creators post their work elsewhere, so you might never get a chance to tell them how you feel about a piece if you miss that window) There’s a variety of really great kinky creations that came out of the masquerade. It’s worth your time if you haven’t already checked it out (remember to kink and let kink and no judgement if you’re going in):

•Personal masquerade ramblings below the cut•
I believe my best so far for the masquerade was seven fills for a round, but tbf that round was extended due to covid iirc. That spring, round 6, (my first round) was a record setter for art fills in the masquerade. It was somewhere in the twenties? Yeah, 21 fills that round. The previous record for art was seventeen fills in a round. I was super determine to contribute towards the masquerade passing over that number that spring. I’m very proud of that number all the artists were able to achieve that round. I could have helped towards round 7 possibly breaking the record again, but I didn’t join in that year for some reason? I think I was busy, iirc? And I didn’t even entertain joining in round 8.
Round 1- 13 Round 4- 17 Round 7- 14
Round 2- 17 Round 5- 17 Round 8- 5
Round 3- 5 Round 6- 21 Round 9- 9
I was debating on whether to join round 9. I wanted to, but I was hesitating. Luckily, Mystifiedgal sent me an ask about it. After that I decided to make a commitment and pour myself into it this time. I had to push myself, cut corners, swallow my pride, and let the awkward parts in the art go to finish anything. If I arted under the normal steps I undergo to complete works, I probably would have not have completed 1, let alone 5.
I decided I wasn’t going too be hard on myself. My main priority was to try and fill as many prompts that interested me that I could do easily in the time allotted and to make the prompt ideas into a reality through the skills and resources I had. I chose not to be too precious about my process to make that happen.
I wanted to try to fill more, but some of the ideas I had were too complicated to figure out in a short time frame. Or alternatively, I wasn’t knowledgeable/skilled enough to full realize them with the constraints I had. I’m in this odd space of wishing I could do more and the event was still going on, to feeling like “There’s no way I could draw another thing for a while. Thank god, it ended.”
Some of the works I did are probably a little too spicy for tumblr, so I might not share any here. Or if I do, only the Gen ones way later on when I feel like it. Tumblr is weird in how it sometimes hides posts from everybody, even followers and mutuals, regardless of it being sfw or not. Sometimes it’ll hide responses from people that I haven’t blocked or haven’t blocked me. And I’m not in the mood right now to entertain and second guess why a post isn’t getting or getting spotty interaction on this hellsite. At least if it doesn’t get much of a response on ao3 I’ll know it’s just because what I’ve made is more of a niche interest rather than the platform working against me.
Anyways, I haven’t made the post yet but it’ll be up sometime soon. I have the same name on ao3 as here but if you need a link here: https://archiveofourown.org/users/kirathehyrulian
Anyways I think that’s it for now. I’ll go more in the actual art notes on the individual pieces on the ao3 art notes.

1 and 16 <3
Afternoon!! Thank you for sending me something :)
1 What do you and your f/o(s) do on a rainy day?
If it's not too rainy Jean and I might go out somewhere indoors, go to a movie or walk around indoor shops. But most the time we are happy to stay home and chill out. We'll get out the gaming system and play old video games together and snack. I'm not very good at the newer stuff but I try and he likes that I participate and is encouraging haha. Also there is most likely a nap sometime during the day.
16 What was your worst date like?
Okay so early on, like date 4, we went hiking. We really didn't think that through and it was a very warm day. I wanted to go though and Jean was great and helpful but it was too much and neither of us suggested turning back until I thought I was going to pass out. So, stupid. He's way more fit then I am so we should've known better. We sat down in the most shaded spot we could find and he made me drink water even though it was his cause mine was gone and wiped my face and arms cause I was so warm and he kept apologizing and during areas of flat ground made me get on his back to carry me. How this guy carried all our stuff and me and didn't complain or overheat is beyond me. Then when we got back to my house he took care to make sure I was okay. So, while the day didn't go as planned and was very unromantic, knowing he would be there for me made things a bit better. Also, we go for runs together now and it's never when it's too hot and only a couple miles around the neighborhood at most!

I’ve been thinking about it and I feel like jacks personal workout would just be moving the huge bags of flour and sugar and other components in the factory before the bakers get in once or twice a week (however often it’s ordered idk what their demand is) Like, i work in a factory irl and see how this stuff gets delivered and moved around, and this is a time before mechanical lifts, I’ve been picturing whenever stuff gets ordered he makes a point of going and moving it all alone in the night to where it needs to be. That’s like his main interaction with the production of the food lol and none of his workers really know he does that they just are like oh cool all that stuff we ordered is sorted where it needs to go.
It’s an interesting thought 🥴 lifting stuff all night

first time doing cardio in 2 years and i'm proud i remembered the breathing pattern siwan taught on run on (kdrama) 😎✨️
not out of breath, all rosie and relieved to have taken off all the energy and pressure pent up. i wanted to work out most of the week but been busy w unpacking and studying and research.
This year's goal ? Love cardio. Consistently add it to my weekly routine.
I already love walking and i've been told i walk real fast, so i feel i'd love the process.

Applying for jobs is so stressful.
Especially when you’re in middle-of-nowhere Midwest.
I’m gonna be honest, I’m very successful academically and like ~professionally~ (primary research presented at national undergrad conference, stuff published with my other internship, shit like that) and that’s all well and good but now everyone’s like “lol you’re too overqualified for this” and other jobs are like “lol you don’t have a masters degree, go fuck yourself.”
Ahhhh.

Day 1/30 productivity challenge
Question: If you are in college, what are you studying?
My current area of study is art with a minor in history.
Today I was able to get myself up at 5am. I know it’s Thanksgiving break, but I want to get myself into a good routine. I was able to get completely ready, have a quite time, and have a healthy breakfast before work at 8am. That made me feel pretty good. After work I got my workout in. I ran out of time for the running part of my workout, but I’m not too worried about it. The reason I ran out of time was because I had to go pick up the dogs from the kennel. I’m not always the best with time management however I am grateful for what I have been able to accomplish today. I rewarded myself with a hot, bubble bath and a good book (for school).
