#i am so grateful for all my commenters

[quillium]

Two kinds of comments and replies on ao3:

1.

commentor: nice fic

author replying: Hello you have done me the greatest of services. The kindest of compassions hast been received from thine good hand. May you be blessed into the coming days, for you have blessed me and mine.

2.

commentor: This tore into my ribcage and you hold my still-beating heart in your hands. I loved the thematic strength of this story--the persistent symbolism within is everything, actually. Your characterization was so on point, I adored the specific choices you made to cement not only the dynamics and show the effect on others but also the further the plot in a logical manner--

author replying: lol thx <3

#JUST ME??? JUST ME??? #ao3 #fanfic comments #I'M SO SORRY ACTUALLY. REPLYING TO COMMENTS AND TRYING TO EXPRESS HOW GRATEFUL I AM FOR THE LOVE #like there is no way to properly express it actually because the love given to us will always feel greater than that received sometimes #i'm dead and dying sorry #trying my utmost to express that i know i've been given a lot and wish to give at least a little love or thanks back but it's. not happening #esp bc school is kicking my butt and i cannot reply to all these comments fr hbfjwiogsdjlk

Hmm I apologize again for the rant !

It is not the first time I am doing it. I might forgot to put "please don't tag it as ship" under my drawing of tighnari cyno. Please, do not !

I love them as best friend, I love them as brother/found family, I don't mind the queerplatonic relationship at all

But their romantic side make me pretty uncomfortable. No hate ! It is my own taste.

Shippers are always welcomed and I am so glad you like my content 💕 but all my art concerning them (unless I tag the ship) are purely platonic. I just ask for some respect of my taste and not reblog my art with the ship tag.

I don't want to block, because I am genuinely glad you enjoy my work and as a young artist, it means a lot for me. Thank you so much 🙇 !! But as a human, I can't deny how uneasy it makes me feel.

Thank you for understanding !

#rant #I blame nobody #i am clearly not used to block ): I should tho but I know those who tag ship are not mean at all </3 #it is fine if you don't know. #but i saw people reblogging my art with shiptag even if i said “do not” #my art is like my only safe place please respect it #this ship is so popular and I clearly stop to interact with the fandom because of that #i clearly ignore when I saw one in my timeline /dashboard becausz I can't do nothinf against it except masking the account #but I beg you. not. under. my. post. #not in my DM #why i feel obligated to justify myself 😭 #but yeah !!! the ship is valid and full of greenflag !! wholesome !! #but I only enjoy them platonically !!! please respect 😭😭😭 I SWEAR I AM DESESPERATE WHY IT IS SO HARD FOR SOME TO RESPECT THAT OMG #gosh on twitter someone said me “ignore ??? what did you expect ??? it is the most popular ship” #I AM TRYING I AM LITERALLY NOT SEARCHING FOR FANART 😀 #feeding myself with my own food #that's why I am so grateful for people who support me. thank you. 😭 #and how could I ignore a comment under my post ??? interaction are so important for me I read everything #ANYWAY SORRY FOR RANTING !!! IT IS CLEARLY A /NOTMEAN POST !!! #next time I won't forgrt “do not tag it as ship” #but urgh if I do this I have to do in every post ???? 🤨 #and what if I draw tighnari cyno kaveh but I don't mind ship with kaveh ??? 🤨🤨🤨 (plz still don't) #tHERE IS PLENTY OF CYN0N4RI ACCOUNT IF YOU WISH TO SEE MORE CONTENT OF THEM !! Please support them <<3 mine are platonic ! #but clearly. imagine you are obsessive about two characters <<3 #but their popular ship is the one who make you the most uncomfy 😀 #so you decided to just stop looking at fanart and not bothering anyone 👍👍 #but it came under your post and your DM 😟 #AAA SORRY I AM SALTY I SWEAR I AM NOT USED TO FEEL LIKE THIS ):< #anyway plz take care ilove you mwah 🥺🥺🥺🥺💕💕

officially at the Big Anxiety stage of career success. wondering when this stops being as bad 😔

#incessant meowing #personal #i understand that at a certain point it becomes inevitable to start running into people who will try to hurt your feelings #just by sheer numbers of how visibility works in an art career #but i feel so severely unequipped to process these things #i’m in therapy again getting help with this but it’s tough right now #and don’t worry 99% of people are so wonderful and lovely and i appreciate you all #and the hateful comments are still incredibly rare #i just feel really silly and over sensitive for still being affected by death wish/insult comments #somehow i feel like other people shrug those off really easily but i’m struggling #and i need to get better at dealing with this because i’m trans and i’m only getting MORE visibility #it’s such a double edged sword because on one hand this is supposed to be every artist’s dream come true #and it is! i’m so grateful for my work #but i am also extremely scared all the time #and it’s starting to take a significant toll on my health

Girls when the end of Sketchbook Week fills them with a melancholic yet unimaginable gratefulness and a contradictory nostalgia for the present moment. Girls when the feeling of community that was already there was enhanced by an event and they're emotional over people on their phone

#you guys. fucking broke me #like yeah I KNEW everyone here was awesome and kind and sweet and talented #but there's something about the organized coming together of it #it feels like the internet equivalent of everyone accepting to hang out together outside of just seeing each other in school/work #to everyone who commented/reblogged my works or just interracted in some way with me during this week #I hope you know how incredibly grateful i am. I hope you know I think of you as a friend (ESPECIALLY the mutuals) #I've never taken more comfort in the saying 'shows end. But fandoms last forever' #but I hope you know you can reach out even when you no longer think too much about hilda #I'm just. so humbled. Like this common interest brought all these amazing people together. Now we can stick by each other #even when there's no longer this common denominator #(which is going to take me a WHILE to leave behind either way don't know about you) #anyway. yeah. I'm happy to share these moments of my life with you people. you are alright [I say as I bawl my eyes out] #wife speaks #not hilda

[comfortless]

oh my gosh where did you all come from!!!!!! can we go wander around a lavender field and hold hands….

#woke up and actually teared up at all of the notifications?! #you’re all so sweet ^__.^ im grateful you’ve enjoyed my silly writing rah #sincerely all of the comments and messages mean so much to me #not doing this for interactions but #it warms my heart sm that my writing could make someone else smile a little #i am humbly offering you all 40 kisses on the cheek

[backintimeforstuff]

Not to be incredibly uncool about this or anything but !!! Twenty-Five Years and Counting is now complete!!! Here's the final chapter <3

(To all of you who think your fic isn't good enough: Don't Delete It. For the love of God. You'll regret it. I promise you you'll miss it. And you'll only end up rewriting the whole damn thing later word for word as best you remember it. Exactly like I did. Exactly like what this is.)

#To all of you who have read/kudosed/commented on/tolerated/even remotely thought about this fic I am SOOO GRATEFUL #2018 me would be SHOOK but she'd be so happy !! #TFYAC has been an idea at the back of my head for more than half a decade #and now it's finally finished #again. #but this time it exists out in the world and I love that it does!!! #txf #fanfiction #txf fanfiction #txf fanfic #xf fanfiction #xf fanfic #my writing

So👏

I'm watching Merlin for the first time and I'm absolutely floored by it and by how much I fell in love with Merthur and the Knights, so here's a couple of Modern! AU that popped in my mind.

Rugby Champion/Nerd AU

- Probably a classic, I'd be surprised if ao3 wasn't plenty of it.

- Of course Arthur is Captain of the rugby team and of course Merlin is the guy sitting in the library all day.

- Don't ask me how they meet don't ask me how they fall in love, they just do

- Arthur's father is the school's principal

- And for this reason there's some people hating on Arthur cause they believe he has privileges

- Spoiler: he doesn't (or denies any of it when his father offers some) but due to this he finds hard to trust people

- Hence he trusts only his teammates aka true friends aka the squad!

- And Merlin of course

- Literally Heartstopper but make it #merthur with gay! Merlin and #bi-and-still-in-the-closet Arthur

Musicians AU

- Merlin goes to a public school and no one knows he's literally a world wide known classic musician

- Idk how don't ask

- Arthur is like the popular guy who plays guitar and all girls love him yadda yadda

- he has a band (must have the boys in every merthur fic sorry not sorry)

- Leon is the bassist, Percy the drummer, Gwaine the second guitar, Elyan is the dj and plays the keyboard, while Lancelot is the singer

- Again don't ask why don't ask how but Merlin and Arthur fight or argue and end up talking ever since

- Maybe Arthur was teasing him about knowing nothing about music

- Merlin silently snickering like *You dare to fight me with your half cheap-ass rock band when rich people spend thousands to listen me play at operas lmao you fool*

- But for some reason he can't tell him that or reveal his secret or else he'll be forced to change school (I dunooooo)

- So Arthur has no idea Merlin is a genius at music

- But.

- He notices Merlin has a perfect pitch, and something like- He can't explain it but Merlin has something with music, like a touch, so he invites him over to listen to his band

- All band members fall in love with him and side with him against Arthur when the two have their - now friendly - banters

- Bros being bros - Dudes being Dudes

- Idk what I was going for with this but IMAGINE WHEN THEY FIND OUT

- Like

- Imagine this fragile boi all cute smiles and sassy remarks and Arthur goes into protective mode cause he develops a crush-

And like, Arthur has a rock band so they look cool and they don't fear anyone in case Merlin gets bullied or something

And then they see him, for the first time-

Wearing a black/navy blue suit that costs thousand of dollars, walking in this giant golden opera with royal red drapes-

And he starts playing the piano for all these rich people and he's absolutely phenomenal

And suddenly Merlin fears Arthur won't be friends with him anymore or he'll fear he's gonna think Merlin is too "marvelous" to enjoy their little rock band

- But in reality Merlin loves them and he loves Arthur and Arthur honestly can't look at Merlin and see any other man than the guy he's been teasing and has argued with for all this time,

- aaand I don't know where I wanted to go with this as well lmao

Feel free to drop any completed fic link in the comments pls I am desperate :)

#Anyway Merthur is my new obsession thank you very much #I'm at ep1 season 4 so pls don't make spoilers in the comments #Yes I am aware of who dies I spoilered myself accidentally but good for me cause I couldn't have handled that #Let's ignore canon and embrace fanon #If I don't find any 78K slow burn enemies to friends to lovers modern au on ao3 #With all the Knights as Arthur's pals who later become Merlin's besties #The what's the point?????? #Feel free to drop any fanfic links down below I would be forever grateful if you did #Merthur #Merlin #Arthur #Gwaine #Sir Leon #Lancelot #Elyan #Percival #merlin bbc

HI LEGEND

im a lurker from ao3 and obsessed with your works and even more obsessed finding ur tumblr,,,your characterization of suguru makes the world go round ok. he’s everything to me these days, thank you for blessing us with your wonderful writing<3. Everything about suguru is so warm and fuzzy and so good to his sweet baby 🥹.

(cw: dissociation) i feel like he would be so good to his angel that struggles w dissociation and keeps her grounded. always giving squeezes, notices the signs when it happens. he’d help you through it and be so comforting :( the way i would ugly sob if it happened fucking too LSDKSK. I hope all is well and giving you a big hug!

-🗿 anon

HELLO

This ask made me so happy! Hello lurker from archive of our own,, WAHH I’m so glad you like my work that really makes my week honestly. AND SUGURU,, yeah he means so much to me IDJXODJDOKDKD IM SO GLAD YOU LIKE MY CHARACTERIZATION OF HIM to Me I think he is a very soft boy, even in canon when he defected he still did it out of love,, i love writing him honestly. I also really like writing Gojo too though. I think I like writing Suguru because it makes me Flustered but I like writing Gojo cause I feel like our sense of humor is very similar. AND THANK YOU FOR BLESSING ME BY READING! Yes yes I concur he really is so sweet to his baby. In my Heart and Soul I just know he would melt for you and do anything for you. I think his love is very. Devotion based. He would devote his life to you, and that’s so sexy of him.

AND. You have no idea how I reacted to the second half of your ask, well I mean all of it but like. You are in my Head. I’ve actually thought about that at length with all my blorbos, but he takes up the biggest residence for that idea. I actually have one or two WIPs with poly satosugu where they care for you during a mental health episode, I don’t think any of them are dissociation but. I’ve never posted them just because it almost feels Too vulnerable,, but I struggle with dissociation. Like. Very badly. KDJKFDKKDKDJDJ I think the thing with Suguru is he would be so good for you during bad mental health episodes, cause he knows what it feels like. He’d be able to notice all the small details. But yes dissociation is a very interesting topic for him. I think Suguru as a whole is a very Grounded character, and I mean we kinda see that in the show how he keeps Gojo’s feet on the ground. You’re so right though he would absolutely try to keep you Here. And he wouldn’t make you feel weird about it. I feel like when I’m dissociating I feel. Crazy KNDKDKDKDK but I think he would be very in tune and calm and treat you Normally, except he always has a hand on you and helps you do grounding exercises. Maybe stands in front of you so you can See him while he holds your face :(( he also would step up. I think he’s dominant generally speaking but I think if he noticed you dissociating he would automatically do all the talking if other people were around and guide you places.

I HOPE ALL IS WELL WITH YOU TOO I AM SENDING YOU A BIG HUG WITH CHOCOLATE AND MAYBE A TEDDY BEAR

#asks #🗿 #did you know you are my first emoji anon #it’s true #this ask really made me so happy you have no idea #I am so grateful to have people like you read my work #I think sometimes as a writer you can get into the habit of writing something and posting it then Thats it #but then you get comments from people and it’s like Oh. People are actually reading my work #and have thoughts about it #I am so glad we agree on the characterization of suguru #and the dissociation thought is so good I think I will be thinking about that for the next month #I also would sob hysterically if suguru took care of me #I think he takes care of you all the time but even more so during those times #he is so important to me #so is Gojo but we aren’t talking about him #I love thinking about characters taking care of you during times you’re having an episode #I find it very soothing #thank you for this ask #I can’t wait to write more for you and to see what you think #tw dissociation #tw mental illness

[burned-lariat]

It's times like these, where TJ has incredibly stupid and one-sided onscreen beef with Kristina, and the surrogacy story not hitting a single beat, that I am so, so glad that: (1) I decided to write "how to keep house while drowning" and (2) that it has as much engagement as it does.

#general hospital #i am so so grateful for the views and all the comments!! #it means so much to me for it to get the attention that it does #and fuck this terrible show for not even attempting to try!! get on my level!! 😤

writing update :)

-i know i said painter au chapter 9 was nearly finished but then i … decided to essentially rewrite it lol (i’m much happier with it now it’ll be worth the extra wait) it’s still not finished but i’m back in the groove and making good progress now

-i wrote a oneshot that people seem to really be enjoying! you know i love a little wilmon confronting trauma moment

-lake house .. so sorry to my lake house stans but editing it is tedious and i really don’t want to update until i’ve edited the past chapters, plus i think chapter 10 may need some rewrites so i’m not sure when she’ll be out but i promise it’s not abandoned! bear with me 😫

-lastly: i don’t want to get anyone’s hopes up but twitter got ahold of my maddierosh fic and really loved it so there’s been some … ideas for a follow up bouncing around in my little brain … it’s not my priority but sometimes i like to churn out a oneshot if i’m struggling with my longer pieces so who knows

thank you for your patience; and if you want faster updates i swear almost every comment i receive genuinely spurs me to open my google docs app and keep going in that very moment so do not underestimate the effectiveness of dropping a short lil comment on an old piece if you’re feeling impatient <3

#i know it’s hard to follow fics when there’s not consistent updates so it truly means so much to me #that people are invested even though im not able to work on such a tight schedule #was just journaling about the difference between working from a place of trying to create content #versus making art #because there is such a difference when i treat my writing updates as social media updates that should be churned out quickly #vs actually making sure that the things im making are deeply aligned with the things i am aiming to examine #i would rather work closely and intentionally and deeply even if that is a slower process #because i know that is the way to create things that truly move people and stick with them which is really important to me #if people are going to spend their time reading my work i want to honor that by giving the most that i can in return #because it really does blow my mind and make my heart feel like it might explode knowing that people are reading my stories #like these things that live in my brain? are in the world? someone commented they were eating breakfast through tears #and i felt so horribly tender towards that person i will never know it just. #is so moving to me #and i’m very very grateful #and all the waiting will be worth it i promise

[killuaisaprincess]
