i was hoping to make a post like this under happier circumstances, but here goes.
as some of you know, everything with the cancellation and renewal campaign has happened right on top of the worst part of my mom's cancer treatment (plus the show was cancelled on my actual birthday 💀). i won't go into details, but it's been tough. lots of ups and downs, mostly downs, luckily ending (for now) on as much of an up as circumstances allow. the whole thing has been weirdly tied to the cancellation for me, kind of amplifying every feeling. the grief got mixed up, and there was so much of it - mourning the loss of the kind of future i thought i'd have with my mother and the time we might not get, mourning the end of a show that means so much to me and is such a big part of my life. different types of grief, sure, and of different magnitudes, but in one big ugly swirl. i sort of had a breakdown right at the start of february, and it was because of news about my mom, but it morphed into my brain telling me everything i'd ever written was shit and wanting to delete it all. stuff like that, spilling over.
anyway. i was holding off on writing this post to see if the show got picked up by someone else. but i still want to say it. because what also spilled over was the support and community from this fandom, and being in this space (despite the rough times and high emotions) helped me through it, because of all of you here. whether we talk regularly, or you left a comforting reply or simply a like on one of my posts about having a hard time (i tried to keep them few), or wrote a nice comment on a fic, or said something funny or nice or insightful in the tags of a gifset, or was active here (or on twt) in any way, talking/sharing/creating stuff about the show - THANK YOU.
you all helped me through all the ups and downs, and i am so grateful. thank you for being here, listening, distracting, helping me feel some joy despite the horrors. i love you and i love this incredible show and all it has brought and will continue to bring and inspire, and although it should go without saying, i'm not going anywhere. just do me a favor and give yourself a big ol' hug from me, and know that you made a difference for some random guy on the internet (but in reality for many more, and for this fandom as a whole, just by being here and being you) 💕

hiiii so I hate doing this, especially since we're all probably struggling to pay bills during this time of year, but I could use some help. I just had to charge $388 to my credit card for heating oil. Luckily, it was for 100 gallons and since I only put the heat on at night, it should last me a couple of months
In exchange for monetary help, I would love to offer resume/cover letter editing services. I'm an academic and career advisor at a prestigious university in Boston, and have helped hundreds of college students with their resumes and cover letters. I even just revised my uncle's resume and when he resubmitted it to the place he was applying to, they offered him a larger salary during negotiations.
DM me on here if you'd like to take me up on my offer, and thanks in advance! Please boost if you can :)

Hi, Moss!!
First of all, congratulations on 300 followers!!
I'd like to request some soft buttered rum with a yule log to eat in for the event!
I usually lurk in the shadows, but for this milestone, I thought I'll come forth from the darkness hehe <3
You're so awesome, I love all of your stuff, ESPECIALLY the self aware fics!!!!
I hope you have a great day/night <33
~Fi 🐝✨️
here's your order for you fi, it's very nice to see you in the light like this <3
Sorry that this one is shorter than the others so far </3 (there's a little context in the tags but I'm not gonna get into everything rn) soft twi is fun though, he's just a bit of a simp and a menace ain't he? just a soft boy with too many puppy vibes for his own good! even though this one is a little shorter I can promise there's more twi coming soon.
I'm glad you like the self-aware fics too!!! they're my pride and joy to write, seeing how many ways they can be taken and how fun every link could be in the situation. I've got wild on the back burner right now but he'll be one of the first to be up after I finish the event works
[Event masterlist]
“you like the snow Wolfie?”
Twi's acting like a puppy right now, bounding around the field, occasionally stopping to shake off the snow. It’s nice to see him acting more carefree for once, seeing as he’s usually more stressed out about wild getting into trouble and such but for now he can just be more comfortable.
It’s not for too long though as he shifts back after my question, by the look on his face probably because I’ve not been as active as he would like me to be right now.
“Do you not darlin’?”
Why does he look so smug. What is he planning to d-
“LINK! Link that’s freezing come on.”
He’s not even listening, just snickering as he’s preparing another snowball. Well two can play at this game can’t they?
I’ve just got to hit him more than he can hit me, simple enough right, should be fine not like he’s a hero who probably has much more everything than me. If I just -
“You alright rancher? Got a little something on your face there.”
The way his nose scrunched up was downright adorable, even though only seconds later his own snowball was buried into my hair. The melted water running down onto my neck only fueled my desire to throw another. It was simply instinct for me to start making another…
Well start on it before he tackled me anyways.
“Whu- hey. What’s - what was that for?”
“Isn’t this more fun darlin’?”
“Twi come onnn.”
“I prefer this so much more [name]... unless you’d prefer that I go back to covering you with snow?”
“Oh so you’re playing like that then?”
If he wasn’t so stupidly strong I would so have flipped this on him already, but sadly he is stupidly strong even when he’s not putting any effort into it. Not that he’s really doing anything besides holding my wrists above my head and laughing lightly.
“Are you planning on anything then?”
“Do you want me to do anything?”
“I - I mean… why wouldn’t I?”
Something shifted in his demeanour then, as he stopped laughing, his hands slipping to my waist as he stared into my eyes entranced.
“You’d let me?”
“It’s you, twi of course I would.”
"... May I kiss you then?"

Drawing from class two weeks ago, prof was introducing us to photoshop because not everyone had used it before, so those of us that were already familiar with it were goofing off lol
Small update; I have recently been given courage to come out and say that this blog will be temporarily put on hold. I'm not falling behind in my studies per se, but they've become such a massive source of stress that I can't focus/don't have time to draw for myself lately. I can confidently say my mental health is the worst it's been since last year; guilt for not talking to people and for not being more active on here is eating me alive, so I think it's best if I take at least one of those pressures off of myself.
When I'm back I'll likely have some classwork to show off, and maybe if the stars align, some personal drawings too haha. Until then, I'll still be somewhat active on my alt (@dawntheduckrb) and might even post some doodles there, so feel free take a peeksies if you want :D (posts are all over the place there though, so don't follow if you don't want dash clutter lol)
Sorry for any worry I caused; see y'all in May :)
