the infamous 'last sighting of a barbary lion in the wild' photo taken by marcelin flandrin (1925) haunts me to my core. there's something so achingly poetic about it.

#this is so random for me but i saw this the other night and it genuinley hasnt left my brain #there's a lot of debate around this subspecies and whether they are #extinct or w/e #hence my wording BUT #this photo and that kinda ....... 'last one in the wild' fact has sTUCK with me #so small. in the space. so alone. walking away. leaving their prints behind. #it honestly nearly moves me to tears if i think about it too much #straight up put this in my drafts last night and now it makes me TOO emotional

BANG x2!

#one piece #black leg sanji #sailors log #redraw of an old piece from my main! #can’t believe the original is already almost 2 years old #thanks everybody who’s stuck around :] #the original suddenly got so many notes last night.. left this in the drafts too long I guess

Oh, I'm sure this chapter won't end up nearly as long as the last chapter, I say to myself. Surely I've learned from my experiences, I say. Totally can keep the word count under control, I tell myself, as I put on my clown nose and makeup.

#answers #Around 12k in this chapter and it's not done yet #Last one was 16k and I can FEEL this one pulling at the leash wanting to outdo it #This is just me complaining #I got stuck for a bit then realized I why I was stuck; the scene I had in mind was bad and dumb #The new scene is ALSO dumb but in a very fun way that I hope people will like #Slowly getting to the end here but it'll be a bit before I have a draft #Yes this is Cult AU again

thinking about writing an aokaga fanfic so specific to the world centered around them i've (delusionally) created in my head with your graduation - modern baseball as the leading inspiration for the piece

on top of that, rewriting knb: the last game's ending with aokaga instead of kagakuro has been haunting me for maybe six months, and this idea paired with this modern baseball song is not helping the urge to just give in and finally write another fic for them

#kuroko’s basketball #knb #aokaga #banged out 20k+ words for them in less than a months time. Maybe and never touched a draft for them ever again #the airport scene aokaga edition is legit just the worst timed confession in existence btw. And that fits in awfully well with the three #years of misery i put aomine through in one of the two fics i wrote for them the end of last year #god. I should really get on these but instead i'm STUCK! listening to global climate change podcasts for college

characters from different universes who should never meet under any circumstance lest they blow up the entire planet in two minutes: kajii bsd and jason thegoodplace

#i stuck this one in my drafts right before i fell asleep one night. you can tell because i could not remember jason's last name #anyway i was literally right for this. i want to lock them in a room together and see how fast they blow it up #hello grace here

Did Mikey ever get to look at the sky Draken kept referring to? I remember this being so heavily foreshadowed, but it sadly didn't happen. And it's such a shame we didn't get it too. We could've gotten some poignant, grief-stricken introspection from Mikey and a callback to Draken after his passing.

#tokyo revengers #tokyo revengers spoilers #ryuuguji ken #i'm sorry to all the draken stans out there for reminding you of our greatest loss in the series #i don't hate takemichi or maitake #but i am one of those people who believe that draken (as well as the others) got sidelined from the story #this was stuck in my drafts for awhile and i forgot to post this when there's so much discourse abt the last chapter #oh well

Ew, essays :[

I miss the old days of kindergarten when we attempted to color butterflies and ate erasers and glue

-🎁

I hated kindergarten

Essays may suck but at least now I'm not the weird kid in the corner wishing I had friends

However yes I absolutely despise essays with all my being... in fact!

Achievement unlocked: you somehow found a topic moshie hates enough and on a bad day to start them ranting in the tags...

August… time to get spooky.

#dadbots.txt #this has been in my draft for... almost a month. Yikes. #I’ve been dissociating hella hard these past months or something. swear I don’t remember time moving this fast. maybe it’s just me tbh. #idk what to say about July other than… boring? not much happened and I don’t really remember it if I’m honest. just. mm. shrugs. #best way to describe it LOL #been sleeping a LOT lately and I think it’s fatigue again. was it like anything before? no. not at that rate (yet) but just. #where you wanna sleep and sleep and sleep type of fatigue. you never feel rested and just gotta sleep it off kinda. #just one of those moments yknow. #it sucks. all I’m doing is letting the days pass me by and ‘missing out’ on living life when I could be enjoying it. but I lost interest - #- in doing so for months - years now due to personal health matters. And whaddya know - it came back again. after months of healing. #I'm pretty pissed as it does feel like a slap in the face. but you win some - you lose some. Gonna try and fight through it. #I wrote something at the beginning of august but that got deleted. Had a breakdown and thought huh. what a great way to start the month - #and now it's almost september. Just like that. What a month it's been. Stuck on what else to say but that really. #don't want to keep talking about depressing stuff as that's what i used to do and realized hey. maybe you should stop doing that so often #and not use it so casually in humor and/or stuff. Even though I reblog vents here n' all. but yknow. #maybe it is hypocritical. but that's not the point. Just want to reflect and see if i've changed since coming back to the web after a year. #not like it's going bad. just wished this year was a bit more optimistic. Last year was rough & i'm afraid this year will be another repeat #though I did come out to a family member this month and that was like a punch to the gut. Considering my status with them and all. #won't get into that. for now let's just say i'm not too close with them. An impulsive choice on my end but hey. it went well. #and that's what matters tbh. My younger self would've thought i was actually insane. like to even DO that? really? #shocking. I'm still not over that moment. Probably one of my biggest achievements this year. #I'll update this if anything else comes to mind. none of this make sense and that's ok. clearing my mind right now. #let's see what september has in store for me. Hopefully it'll get better as things slow down w/ winter on its way. #hope y'all enjoyed your summer. 🖤🤘🏽

Every time my brain comes up with a story idea that doesn't involve me doing some serious mental gymnastics to get it to work I have no motivation to bother.

#personal #anyway i came up with a sixth? stranger things fic idea #it's going to be more hopper centric in a surprise! you have another kid kind of thing #and i love hopper i feel like his banter would be as easy as it is with writing eddie's #but the dang idea is too canon compliant so to speak #but also this character would be filling roles that several of the cast already does and thus seems kind of redundant #i mean hopper already has a found family/reluctant father sort of thing with eleven #but also the character was going to be the bard of the group which #we have eddie for that #but also have some connection to mkultra as their mother was one of those involved #but that's just eleven #also they'd get stuck as a baby sitter a lot but steve exists #idk i might draft up a scene to see how they get along with hopper and see what happens #the last time this happened it was a fallout 4 thing where the main was literally the Nuka Girl model who won a spot in a vault #and they pop up trying to use this newly healing world to get away from that old identity of themself #it was going to be a hancock/oc story #but my brain was like This makes too much sense #and ran with the isakai instead

For the fanfic ask, I’ll do 1 and 12 at the same time, and it’s “A Hundred Mini Dreams and a Healing Scar”. It’s like a comfort fic for me that I go back to often, because the expression of the theme of “I want to be kinder to myself to be kinder for you” in the way Caleb has made his own space more comfortable for himself and Essek takes me out every time. It’s so integral to why I like the ship in the first place…. And I’m very weak for the scene of Essek comforting Caleb through a nightmare at the end.

My favorite fic of yours + 12. A fic of yours that i’ve re-read

Ohhh 🥺🥺🥺 Honestly, I don't often reread this one all the way through due to the length and sheer amount of 'if i look at this too long I will either combust or cry', but it's Definitely one I revisit, especially with regards to Caleb's whole 'I will be an example of silly intimacy so that we can be silly together'.

That theme of mutuality and self-directed kindness is one of The top things I hope to express between Caleb and Essek in TS, so I'm really glad that aspect stands out to you! They're foils turned mirrors turned friends!! To be kind to oneself is to share in the kindness of others!! 'Try to be kind... to yourself'!!

And Caleb and his nightmare 🥺 Not all dreams will be sweet, but Essek's got the capacity and willingness to comfort even if it takes a little practice, and they've got plenty of time to be patient with one another as they both learn what to do 🥺

(A Hundred Mini Dreams and a Healing Scar)

Thank you! :3

fanfic asks for the askers

#extra behind the scenes rambling for ya since apparently i cannot contain myself xD #this fic laid the groundwork for 2.5 year angst #both in terms of the inciting incident and its resolution 🥺 #also surprising no one i have a wip where essek thinks directly about the whole 'being kind to myself is being kind to you' thing #during the honeymoon era #haven't quite pinned down what's going on around it though so i've gotten stuck on it but so it goes xD #also have a wip where we get to see caleb's bedchamber changing over time but that thing's like seven chapters and i have uhhh. two xD #the first and last #not sure what's going on in the middle quite yet #there's more i could probably list if i poke my drafts some xD chronic 'i have a thing' syndrome truly xD #batwayneman #chanswers

Anyone ever just think of random fucking dialogue and jokes and random shit between characters?? The amount of goofy ass otp banters and shit I have drafted is embarrassing. What am I going to do with that?? Make them comics or fics??? Bitch. 

#rimble ramble #so many k2 draft friends i am not kidding #tons of tons of stuff I never post and no one #gets to learn how I really characterize them beyond the facade #of art I do get to complete :'D #you've been here for fucking yEARS amber you're running out of time #for anyone to see anything!!!! #otp #I finally write the chaptered fic and then it's all over and everyones gone already lmao #also bc no one would care about this and i just want to get it out #i think i can finally admit i have a favorite band and they came out with a new album #and I fucking love it!!!!!! so much!! its been stuck in my head so fucking much #i just love songs that have big emotional climaxes #and then imagine mysterion faceing his lovecraftian demons literally #but you dont know about all that yet ;) one day soon totally :') #pls listen to Wax Wings by periphery to understand me deeply. at least the last half
