either gonna remake again in the future and hand out the url privately or gonna clean out the followers list again me'thinks. so if you wanna stay mutuals and plan on writing w/ me in the future when I can actually dedicate time to doing so w/out any stressors or anxiety spikes then please, slap that heart real quick for me.

if not, it was a pleasure to write and talk for a bit and wish y'all good luck on your future endeavors 'n stuff.

#010 //: out of character. #am I trying to make it easier and less anxious on myself to write here? yes. why? too much trauma w/ discord rp servers to warrant trying #and tbh I shouldn't feel pressured or afraid to even post stuff here thinking that I'm gonna get harsh words or nasty side-eyes despite #the content not even being that bad or triggering at all compared to other things I've seen on my dash. #long story short i wanna be here but something is making me feel unwell/not be here but can't pin-point the cause so the solution is to wip #didn't I do something like this last month? yes. everyone has their coping mechanisms. mine is mhw and seeking the once a month validation #'cos it either feels like i'm just a number to most people or just the one partner they decide to write w/ 'cos their bored or something #I wanna be someone's fav. who they scream to @ 3am about muses and hcs not just another number to their follow count :( #all in all?

Wips I'm really excited about. They're coming to life!!! 💞💞💞

Bonus: Fangs 💞

#oc: august #oc: nicolas #sfm funsies #tf2 #tf2 medic #decided tumblr is best to share wips due to the tags navigation and so I don't clog up the discord I'm in lmao #I would post them on twitter but I'm not sure if the tags could be filtered well I mean what if someone comes and wants to skip the wips #I mean. I could post them on twitter too. I don't mind since I just really log in to post what I made and then log off until I make another #so it's really not a problem but I don't know if twitter is okay with wips since the tags navigation is kinda funky imo as said before #I guess I could see. I just want to share stuff tbh and this lets me air my thoughts about my next projects and talk about them freely #get all excited and giddy with people :) and show I'm alive too LMAO or else I barely do yearly works. I swear it's not on purpose #my brain just doesn't cooperate with focusing. or if it does I focus too much and my hand wrist and arm ends up hurting for days after

I do wonder whether underappreciating Adriel x Lilith is just the fandom being boring in rejecting m/f (sorry not sorry, no hate from this bi girl, but nothing will surpass the Satan and Lilith dynamic), or, is it because the ship is so underdeveloped.

We see Adriel "tempt" Lilith, I talk about it here. I'ts great, I loved it.

Then, there's the final battle. We see them be an evil villain power couple together.

We even see Lilith be soft towards Adriel for a moment.

But, that's it. She turns on him, without us even understanding why. It wasn't because he's evil and crazy, she knew he was evil and crazy. Also, I refuse to believe she woke from his spell, I refuse to believe she was under a spell at all. He offered her what the OCS couldn't (and by that, I don't mean his rod). That's why she chose him. Maybe Reya played with her head, I don't know, but that would be insulting to her arc.

There's a gaping chasm between Lilith turning to Adriel, and the final battle. What were they doing during their time together? Drinking brandy and scheming? Performing blood rituals? Going on dates? What did they talk about, how did they bond (more)? It would have been great, to see the situation from their angle, at least a bit. To find out what they're thinking. Lorena and William portrayed great chemistry, why not use it? Also, their interactions could've revealed more about the Other side to us.

Warrior Nun did a lot of things brilliantly. Adriel is a wonderful villain, he's one of my favorite characters in the world. But, his dynamic with Lilith was left barebones. They both deserved more screentime in general, it's such a shame the season was shorter. Some things seem rushed because of it. I would've loved to see Lilidriel fleshed out more.

Also, I'm still bitter the creators screwed with the Satan and Lilith pairing by having her ditch him. You don't sUbVeRt that pair. I forgive a lot in the name of an author's license, I don't forgive that. At least she went away on her own path.

#warrior nun #warrior nun fandom #wn fandom #sister lilith #lilith villaumbrosia #adriel #lilith x adriel #lilidriel #otp #diary pages #warrior nun thoughts #idk why do i feel the need to mention i'm bi #i guess because people act like being straight makes your opinion and taste not matter #which is nonsense but that argument doesn't even work on me #tbh I don't like any of the ff pairings in wn except avalil and maybe doctor superion #i guess that's what fanfiction is for but i have enough wips #i did have that idea of a short fic where lilith has adriel's son and of course names him lucifer 🤣 #pfft here she'd be with adriel and have a son named lucifer #in atsbb she's with lucifer (adriel's mom) and adriel's her stepson 🤣 #but that name just... what other one would she pick #the do make such a great villain power couple and i adore anything that's based on my favorite pairing ever... one of there's also another #lorena andrea #william miller #warrior nun gifs #my gifs #of course my grievances with the creators mean nothing the do what the will i like or not like it it's my problem #even in your favorite media there's things you don't like #in wn i have a lot because it's... so out of my genre #tbh FOR ME my favorite ff ships never measure up to my favorite mf ships it's just my preference... well there are a couple but i prefer mf #in wn my problem is not that like i said the characters just don't create the type of ship i like

[swiftfootedachilles]

where is the anon who likes my writing i need motivation to finish other kinktober stuff. also i did make edits/visuals for one of my fav fics for kinktober but i haven't gotten a reply from the author is okay with me sharing them... should i post them anyway (with credit ofc)?? i know on a03 theres a way to link works inspired by other works, should i just do that?? if i don't get a response should i not post them? this person is not really active on social media so idk exactly what to do............

#i really enjoyed making the edits despite the fact it took hours and im not even done yet #they feel more fulfilling than writing but maybe i just feel that way bc i know it'll get more attention than my writing ever will #idk im still upset my debut flopped #i simultaneously want to write more to prove im a better writer (but mostly to gain popularity tbh) & never write again out of embarrassment #a.txt #okkkkk let's take an inventory of what wips i have so far #super short wips for the promp collars. another short one for a free space. maybe another edit if i have time... #...a slightly longer spit fic. oooh i have an outline for prompt: deepthroating. lastly my super long d/s punishment fic #why am i doing this to myself. Too Much

[imwritesometimes]

I think the huge chunk in the middle of my wip notebook that is just manic notes, outlines, time lines, entire chapters complete with edits from the last (almost) year that I abandoned should idk... have the decency to tear themselves out and set themselves on fire

#nothing like sitting down last night like: you know what! I am gonna try again! fck it! I CAN write! #I know I can cause I checked! I can absolutely write it's fine I'm actually pretty good at this! #and opening the notebook and looking at the cery loose wip notes and going: ok! I can work with like 80% of this! #what else is in here?!!! #that was my mistake.... I should not have looked at what else was in there #pages and pages and pages of 3 different wips I tried to make work for one ship #a couple for another #a whole fleshed out 5+1 for a beloved ship wip that I just.... gave up on #notes from the last fic I shared nearly a year ago #that was the last time my writing flowed. I could read those notes and be like #oh this bitch is onto something. she's FEELING IT. #and then after that. poof. I tried and tried and tried and tried. #and then I got all in my head abt the one ship. and the source material. and I honest to god just. #kinda burned myself out on fic and fandom and blorbos in general tbh. like. that ship nearly killed my creativity. #for good. #but now I'm kinda like hmmmm you knkw what I'm not bad actually!!! #but then. open the notebook. and womp womp. maybe I am bad. maybe I've always been bad. maybe I SHOULDN'T try again. #closed the notebook and went to bed. idk if I wanna look at it tonight again #might just fuck off and try to make sense of the new true d ep that's apparently out tonight #(this season has been so mid so far mehhh) #erin explains it all

[cerealmonster15]

actually whats jarring isnt even being stuck on that fic for so long but rather i went from having SO SO SO MANY overflowing ideas CONSTANTLY and just going BRRRRR writing them out for funsies to just. slamming straight into a wall. COMPLETELY stopped and frozen and empty brained outta seemingly nowhere

#wahhh lol #i still had another idea in my head i never even got around to start trying to write #probs bc that one also had a few layers and tbh #would maybe work better as a short multi chapter fic #but ive never written multi chapter so idk that i want to #i could just make it one long broken up fic #but anyway. aside from that #i dunno what happened #brain when ppppffffbbbbtttt #i dunno what happened 😔 #maybe im overwhelmed lol #i do not know. but. i opened the doc of the fic i do have a wip of #maybe. i will write a line or two. hmm.

[tariah23]

Also, what if I just started to post fate doodles to this main blog of mine instead of hiding them behind the readmore or posting them to my main, would anyone care 🚶🏾‍♀️…

#I just want an excuse to draw more fate stuff it’s been forever #I lost all of my fate wips on my other laptop I swear I’ll try to get them back one day #I probably had over 100 sai files and most of them were of arturia and cu but I had done really fun Arjuna and Karna wips that I’m still sad #about #and kintoki… #rambling #I just wish I drew more #I want to make another twitter acc for just fate art tbh

[ria-starstruck]

the danger of reviewing animatic wips is sometimes there are about 4 ideas you want to work on at the moment and then you look at something old and suddenly want to finish that one instead/in addition

#not art #i have so many. so many wips #not just animatics #writing. art. comics. sewing (delusional). jewelry. i could go on #i mean i THINK that's it #if i had more hobbies. my god. i #oh right website forgot about website #urghghhghhhgh #i should pick up the hobby of going to bed tonight right now #tbh more like 3 ideas bc 1 is that one animatic which i should really have been done with by now but just kept on dragging my feet about #hmmmm i got another idea related to it that i wanted to work on...urghgh #my hollow knight wips are in dire need of being finished tho methinks #maybe i can like.....reduce the amount of motion in one of them...idk #make it more like a pmv.... (?) #man but i got really attached to it...........urgh #i should just sleep tho....

[eddiethehunted]

i want you to touch it softly (ao3)

believe it or not, this one isn't a wip, it's COMPLETE! rated: m (to be safe, tbh could probably be rated t) | cw: drug use, horny discussion, eddie has a thing for his hair getting pulled (implied) | wc: 1.6k | robin/vickie mentioned, platonic stobin, mutual pining, steve being into hair care and skincare, idiot4idiot, the usual <3 title from ariana grande 'my hair'

—————

Steve’s curled into a corner of the couch, watching the movie with glazed eyes, his knees drawn up to his chest. Robin’s feeling a little buzzed herself, laying on her side on the other end of the couch, with Eddie sat cross legged on the floor in front of her, scribbling away in a notebook.

Without really thinking much about it, she reaches forward and starts playing with Eddie’s hair. He startles at first, glancing over his shoulder, but she just smiles at him and twirls a curl around her finger and he relaxes, so she doesn’t stop.

“Okay, I have to know,” she says, because really, Eddie’s curls are beautiful, just really dry and frizzy and she’s stoned and nosy and curious. “Is this a perm? Or is it natural?”

Eddie looks offended, shooting her a reproachful look over his shoulder and saying, “It’s natural.”

She nods, twirling a piece around her finger again. She can see Steve on the other end of the couch looking over sulkily. Jealous. She thinks it’s adorable, the way Steve quickly looks away when she glances over at him.

“It’s so crunchy,” Robin says, “how much hairspray do you have in here?”

Another affronted look. “None! I just washed my hair before I came here.”

It’s still a bit damp around the roots, so she knows he’s not lying. She gets her fingers really in it, pulls his head back a little bit, and he makes this weird sound in the back of his throat. It’s something between pleased and irritated, like when you pet a cat that can’t decide if it wants to purr or claw at your hand.

Steve huffs and pretends he’s still watching the movie, but Robin bets he’s jealous as hell right now. He has expressed to Robin several times how badly he wants to be allowed to play with Eddie’s hair but he can’t because that’s weird and guy friends don’t do that and he doesn’t want to make Eddie uncomfortable.

As if Eddie doesn’t melt into a puddle of horny lovesick goo the second Steve so much as brushes against him.

It’s not really her place to tell him how many times Eddie has complained to her about his own pathetic crush, though, so she never does. Just lets them both lament and pine and complain to her about how badly they want each other, and how sad and tragic and woeful their lives are that it’ll never be requited love. Pats Eddie’s shoulder when he covers his face and whisper screams into his hands when Steve walks by wearing those stupid jock shorts and lets Steve lay his head in her lap and whine about Eddie’s arms and his hands and his mouth and—kinda just everything.

(It’s only fair, though. They’ve both heard enough of her salivating over the short skirts Vickie always wears on their dates. And that one low cut shirt she wears that shows off her cute tits. The least she can do is listen, even if it kinda makes her want to bash her head into the wall sometimes.)

Steve likes hair, she knows. Skincare too. He likes products and he understands skin types and hair textures pretty well, considering she’s sure he’s never learnt anything cosmetic-related, at least not formally. He put her on some new shampoo a few months ago and her hair’s never been so soft and healthy and wavy before.

Eddie’s hair is dry. It’s kinda fried, even. It’s brittle and tangled and not really rough to the touch, but definitely not as soft as it could be, and she knows it drives Steve insane. Like, Steve likes Eddie’s hair like it is—she’s sat through way too many sexually frustrated rants about how badly he wants to mess it up—but he knows how to help it, and he wants to, because it’s like, his love language or something.

“Damn. Your hair is dry.” Robin glances sidelong at Steve again, trying to project her thoughts into his mind. “You should use a hair mask or something.”

“Some of us are poor,” Eddie says indignantly, jerking his head away. He scoots closer to Steve’s side of the couch, out of her reach, and glowers at her as he pulls his notes to the other side of the coffee table. “My hair’s fine, thank you very fucking much.”

“I’m poor too, dumbass,” Robin points out. “I just steal Steve’s stuff.”

Steve snorts, letting his head loll back against the back of the couch, his eyelids heavy. He’s been quiet all night—he gets that way sometime when he’s high, just stops talking and sits there, quietly listening to whatever’s going on around him—but he speaks up for the first time in over an hour to mumble, “Not stealing if I’m givin’ it to you.”

“Whatever,” Robin says, waving a hand. “Touch Eddie‘s hair, dude. It’s crispy.”

Eddie shoots a desperate, betrayed look at her, then says to Steve, “I will bite your hand off, Steve.”

“Mhm, bet you will,” Steve says, ignoring the warning, because Eddie is all cozy in his plaid PJ pants and Steve’s old hoodie and therefore about as threatening as a small gerbil, “lemme see.”

He reaches out to touch with only the faintest flush on his cheeks. It could easily be blamed on his high, but Robin knows him as well as she knows the back of her own hand. Steve is absolutely losing his shit right now. He’s just really good at hiding it.

“Dry,” he confirms. His hand lingers in Eddie’s hair and Robin notices that Eddie doesn’t bristle nearly as much when Steve’s the one with his hand all wrapped up in it.

Rude. But understandable.

“What the hell,” Eddie complains, but he sounds decidedly less irritated and a whole lot more flustered now. He’s nowhere near as good at hiding it as Steve.

Robin hides a smile when she notices how he’s not doodling in the margins of his paper anymore, but instead twisting a ring around his finger and staring hard at the wall.

Okay, she's more than aware of the fact that she started this, but she’s starting to think that maybe she should, like, go. Give them some privacy or whatever. Save herself of having to experience this.

“Th’s’not a bad thing,” Steve murmurs in his soupy, slow, stoned voice. Robin might not be into guys at all—especially not Steve, he’s like, Steve—but she’s not an idiot, she can tell in a purely observational way how the gravely sound of it could be sexy. She’s not completely oblivious.

Neither is Eddie, apparently, because there’s a strange glazed look in his eyes that Robin is sure has nothing to do with the weed in his system. His adam’s apple bobs as Steve runs his fingers through his hair, tugging a bit near the roots to pull Eddie’s head closer.

Eddie goes willingly. Quietly. Steve looks delighted, a big stupid smile on his face.

She is seriously such a genius. Steve owes her, seriously.

“Not a bad thing,” Eddie echoes.

“No, s’nice like this anyway.” Steve gathers it all into one hand, like a ponytail, before letting it fall slowly, playing with it like that over and over as goosebumps break out over Eddie’s neck.

“How do I—” Eddie sounds like he’s choking, the back of his ears and neck bright red. “Uh—make it better?”

“A hair mask might help,” Steve says, rolling onto his side so he can get both hands in Eddie’s hair. He’s too out of it to notice the violent shudder that tears through Eddie’s body. “You should do a porosity test.”

“Uh huh,” Eddie says blankly. Robin nearly cackles. Eddie has no fucking clue what’s going on. He checked out the second Steve got his hands in his hair.

“That’s the one where you see if your hair floats?” she prompts, when it’s clear Eddie isn’t going to say anything else, too dumbfounded to process anything that Steve’s saying to him.

“Mmmhm.” Steve gives a little smile, pleased that she remembers, and of course she does.

Eddie’s eyes shut and he presses his lips into a firm line at the sound of Steve’s agreement, like he’s fighting some kind of demons inside. Steve’s still got his hands buried in Eddie’s hair, eyes glassy as he watches the frizzy strands run through his fingers.

“Maybe high porosity. Feels rough.” He tugs a little, maybe on accident, or maybe he’s too stoned to think better of it. “Wanna try a hair mask?”

“Uh,” Eddie says.

Robin kicks him, not at all subtly, and he coughs, straightening up a little bit.

“Uh, yeah,” he chokes out. “Um… if you think it’ll help, I guess. Why not.”

God, Eddie owes her too. She’s such a good friend.

Steve’s hands fall from Eddie’s hair as he pushes himself up to a sitting position, somewhat clumsily. He catches Robin’s eye, biting his lip in an excited smile, and she grins back, giving him a thumbs up.

“If the pizza shows up there’s cash in my wallet,” Steve tells her, getting to his feet and offering his hand to an absolutely flustered-looking Eddie. “C’mon, gonna show you how to take care of those pretty curls.”

Eddie’s mouth falls open, gaping like a fish out of water. Robin can’t help but snicker, grinning wider when he shoots her a bewildered, panicked look over his shoulder as Steve tugs him towards the stairs.

She curls into her corner of the couch, pulling the blanket closer to her chin and putting her focus back onto the movie as she waits for the doorbell to ring. Grease is always a classic, and, well, whatever happens between her two favourite idiots next is really none of her business.

She does turns up the volume, though. Just in case.
