#sleepless cinderella

[daeva-agas]

Ah... yeah, so... In the game there’s a “Las Vegas season” with a whole new set of LIs. This is conveniently relevant to what I said before about how “I still have standards” even if I like the guy’s face.

Like, I think this guy's face is more of my type compared to Michele, but he first showed up being a flooze with two girls in his arms and I’m like “Yikes, okay then” *slowly backing off*

And his first words to MC is like “Hey cutie wanna play with me tonight?”

Errrr... Uh... How about no? D:

Like, Michele is just being a ridiculous flirt, which is annoying but harmless, but this guy just feels like a sleazebag D: 

So what kind of weird sob story are you gonna tell me to justify this? :/ Or will it be more like “he actually was sleazy, but he'll change, promise”.

hi!! its the anon who was about to start reading the ayakashi series (at least, the last time i sent a message; doyoung's story ruined me beautifully btw). i recently mentioned your works in a conversation with a friend, who now constantly sends me her thoughts on any fic of yours that she's read (she recently read ten's route for sleepless cinderella, truly did not expect how that story went in the middle; the whole "ten is missing" part was so good we felt so anxious reading it as well. then you healed it over pretty nicely with the ending so we didnt have to finish that fic in tears, 1000000/10 🌟). she doesnt have tumblr, refuses to make one for a reason idk, so she reads on ao3. just wanted to say we both can't wait for your upcoming works and talk about it together 🫶🏼 (as a mark stan, she's excited for baby fangs; i'm personally excited about frankenstein complex)

have a good day!! 🌷

(hope this message doesn't come off as pressuring you; we just both love the plots and how you write!)

(and i know it's been a while since you've written for ayakashi, but i wanted to say that taeyong as a nekomata and yuta as a kitsune fox were such good choices. love their dynamic in that series so much)

omg hiiii to both you and your friend!!!!! im truly so 🥹 touched both that you mentioned my works to a friend and that y'all like??? kinda buddy read them together???? like y'all have my whole heart truly 🫶🫶🫶🥹🥹🥹

this ask doesn't feel pressuring at all dw!! hearing 1) super sweet feedback abt works that i've already posted always makes my day and 2) just letting me know that you're looking forward to a wip doesn't feel pressuring! (the sorts of asks i don't care for are ones asking me when i'm going to post a specific fic if i haven't already said that i've finished it bc that makes me feel pressured to finish it faster, or just ones straight up telling me to post a fic) your ask is super sweet and encouraging 🩷🩷🩷

im excited for both frankenstein complex and baby fangs as well! frankenstein complex especially is gonna be pretty new for me, but i've been having an absolute blast working on it

and ayakashi and kitsune yuta and esp nekomata tyong have a very special place in my heart always!! i love writing their characters and their dynamics with each other in the stories too <33

Steve Harrington had resigned himself to his reality: his parents hated him so much they denied his existence, he was banned from attending any event he’s invited to, and he is a disappointment to the family name. The last thing he expected was to meet the Kingdom’s princess, let alone fall in love with her.

do you have any favorite romcoms / ones you can particularly recommend? I don't watch a ton of them myself but the other day I did want to & couldn't think of anything

oh god. i havent actually watched any in a LONG time, because, like i said, i've been trying to expand my taste. So this rec list will be years removed from any time i've watched any of these and heavily shaded by the taste of teenage me. fair warning.

One of my all time faves is Ever After, which JDQ recently disparaged in a clapcast or somewhere but dont believe them its iconic. Drew Barrymore as Cinderella but her family is minor french gentry and the prince hangs out with leonardo davinci. It's flawed, but it's so good to me. My sister walked down the aisle to its soundtrack though, lol, so that might tell you it has outsized importance to my family.

I've always loved the Tom Hanks/Meg Ryan Sleepless in Seattle and You've Got Mail combo, but its been MANY years and i cannot say if they hold up. But they're very sweet and hilarious in my memory. I also associate How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days with them, but i watched it way fewer times. I remember thinking that one was spectacular.

10 things i hate about you! if you like teen romances and a shakespeare retelling, its SO good.

The movie that inspired the post was Mamma Mia 2, which is a bonkers movie but also. wow! romance! but also NOT a romcom, mostly like. family and girlpower and Abba.

I hope at least some of these interest you!! And I hope you have a blast if they do ^.^

#The half of it. is sort of a romcom. but im adding it on this list because it's one of my alltime favourite movies ever #(my icon is from the half of it!) #i hope some of these interest you

[2-lines-and-a-circle]

My otome game journey

Note: So, I’ve been thinking lately about my journey from playing otome games and I just wanted to put it out there. Mainly because I was so curious if anyone has done the same thing as me.

Let’s see, I started with Midnight Cinderella, and I remember the first route I ever did was Alyn’s, which was pretty chill. The ending in a way traumatized me because if I remember correctly, he actually went off to war instead of being with you. For Alyn it made sense because he’s a knight and all that but, I didn’t know at that time that sometimes it’s not always a happy ending.

After that I ventured into the world of wizardess hearts, I actually played several routes. Yet, I don’t remember much other than really liking the MC because I thought she looked cute. Yeah, I can't exactly say much about that one…

It was then that I found my forged wedding and started playing a bunch of voltage inc games. I absolutely love my forged wedding, it’s one of the few otome games where I recommended playing everyone’s route. Seeing as I loved my forged wedding, I continued playing a bunch of other games from them all the way to Irristable mistakes.

During that time, I heavily invested several hours into several different game titles and fell in love with many of the suitors. Some shoutouts would be Star crossed myths, My last first kiss, seduced in the sleepless city and many more. Of course, I came to find another game which was not mystic messenger. I actually was not involved in that because I had a sister who was too invested in that. Let’s just say, I didn’t want to wake up late at night because of their game events.

Anyway, I came to invest my time in Mr Love: Queen's Choice, but it was very short lived. Why, because during that time I was too far down the kpop rabbit hole. Even though I was a big kpop fan since 2011, I reached an all-time peak. I still do enjoy kpop now, just not to that level of extreme. When I say extreme, I mean following several groups and watching everything that they had. Anything they appeared in I felt like I needed to watch that, but more on my kpop journey later.

By now it was late 2018 and I rekindled the flame for Mr Love: Queen's Choice but it wasn’t just that. I fell down the rabbit hole of the Chinese media! I grew to love c-dramas and their music. I kid you not I was in a whole different league of my own. So next thing I knew I repeated my kpop trash days but with everything c-pop instead.

Then, for a very brief time period in 2019 I grew to love Thai series because my mother had a liking for Thai BL. Then I went back to watching C-dramas and watched the series called the Untamed with my mother since she really liked the actors.

Finally, we arrive at the year 2020, the pandemic and such made life crazy. I also started to hear about this game called Ikemen sengoku and I was like hey how interesting. However, I was busy and never got back to the game after finishing a couple chapters. Yet, I heard about twisted wonderland, and I became more consistent with that instead. I love twisted wonderland and thought that I should find another game to give my life to.

This is when I finally decided to try ikemen vampire, I thought it was a pretty crazy idea. I was like, did someone drunk come up with this idea because I want what they were drinking. Now, we are in our present timeline.

I have finished over half of the suitors, routes and I’m very happy I did. This game made me fall in love with otome games all over again. However, every now and then I get a craving for something crazy. That’s when I play games from voltage inc. I highly recommend Ikemen vampire for those that like angst.

Aside from ikemen vampire, I tried out ikemen prince and romance MD as well as Her love in the force. Out of those three I just named, I recommend the latter two rather than the first, especially for those who want a breath of fresh air. Well, that’s all for my progress so far, but it’s not the last!

This picture gives me “old taylor can’t come to the phone right now vibes” she’s holding the phone but not actively engaging with it. She can’t - she isn’t the taylor they’re looking for

So maybe some of the sleepless nights are from her disappearance and losing herself in that process. She talks about how Midnights is all about meeting yourself, or hoping to.

She talks about keeping the lanterns burning. Related to keeping that flame alive, that whisper of magic and fire she had within herself to keep going / to keep making music

I think these songs are going to be her explaining what happened In the midst of her worst tragedy. How at Midnight we meet ourself in the shadows and in the dawn of a new day where we can decide to keep going. I feel this album is going to be really deep and coming from a darker place emotionally than maybe we’ve seen Taylor in before

And when the clock strikes 12 - Cinderella style - who will we turn in to? Someone new, someone borrowed, or someone blue? Very ready to see what Taylor has to share with us

I know that with otome games I’m like “looks>>>> everything else”, but I’m surprised just how much nonsense I’m actually able to accept if I like the guy’s face.

This guy, Michele Zola... He’s that ridiculously cheesy flirt type of guy who is like... just so over the top with how he talks. You know. Like Ikesen Shingen, basically. But like. Because I like Michele’s face better than Shingen, I’m actually pretty fine with him being like that. 

Meanwhile, sorry Shingen, but because he’s not my type I’m just :/ every time he goes on his “goddess” spiel. Like, it’s funny and stuff, when it’s not over the top in other people’s routes, but it’s :/ when it’s his route. 

I mean, I suppose cheesy flirting is harmless, it’s just kind of annoying. I know that I’ve been like “OK, this guy’s hot, but this is still creepy/abusive/whatever” so I think I still have some limit and that I’m not just “handsome dude = everything is fine”. I’m still bewildered tho, LOL.

hi, i was rereading your sleepless cinderella fics, as one does, when i noticed a weird inconsistency!!! i was on yangyang’s route, when the reader visits the lounge area for the first time in a while and is trying to remember what occupation yangyang has, when the reader says they recall meeting seven men. i think it’s supposed to be six, but idk!!! i know u have a note on the top about there potentially being errors and to let u know, so i just wanted to see if i’m crazy or not. i love your fics though!!! i go back to them all the time… u have so many classics that i adore, and reading them again brings me so much comfort. i also love tuning into all your new releases!!! ur the biggest sungchan fan i know… i feel influenced… swayed…

ahhh ur so right that should totally say six at that part thank you!!! all fixed now! sleepless cinderella truly is such a classic im still so fond n so proud of that one esp now that i made those edits.....

and honestly can i just say i feel like so many readers only browse by new and are only looking for the newest fics and read stuff once and never just sit with fics and absorb them i partially blame tiktok/booktok for that but dont get me started on the commodification of reading and fanworks etc etc and are 1) unwilling to go back to find and read older/unfinished works and 2) reread stuff they've already read,, while i think ppl tend to think they're coming from a good place when they comment asking authors for more fics, it can be draining being treated like a content farm when ur just a person sharing stuff u really like. it's just really refreshing to hear from the people who come and say "i found your blog through [insert older fic]" or "i reread x fic all the time, it's so comforting" like those r the ones that really make me feel good, because it makes the days and months that i put into these fics feel like they have more permanence to people than just the hour or two they spend reading them once and then never thinking abt them again.

i guess that was my roundabout, long way of saying thank you, really 🫶 i like knowing when people read my fics over n over, which are their favorites, which are their comfort fics (which, the idea just makes me melt every single time), which were their first, and which ones they still think abt even long after the first time they read them

and not to brag or anything......but last time i checked like idk a week ago 12% of the jung sungchan/reader tag on ao3 are my fics. there are only 33 fics in that tag, so it's 4/33, but still.....12% 😎😎😎

im so happy ur tuning into my new releases too, im so so proud of the stuff i've been putting out, they've been like my favorite stuff i've ever written both technically and from a creative standpoint in terms of worldbuilding, characters, and the relationships (romantic and platonic), and i'm so excited for what i've got planned too this kun sci-fi au will be so much longer than i first expected but if i can pull it off it's going to be. insane. possibly the starlightkun fic ever

#also i saw ur message when i woke up this morning but i couldnt answer till i got home from work sorry!!!! #answered #anonymous #talk #text #mine #fb #s: sleepless cinderella #writing tag

Midnights – Taylor Swift

Side A: The Dark Side of The Moon

1. New Moons: the first track, starting with a slow rhythm and then building up. theme – being afraid of the new changes in life, like going to a new school and the fear that keeps you awake at night. here, new moons, refer to youngsters facing life changes. this will be the other pov of nothing new. (‘the kind of radiance you only have at 17’ but it'll show the struggle of being 17 here)

2. Saudade: it means nostalgic or melancholic longing. this can be about wishing to go back to a certain time of life when you believed you were the happiest or had someone precious but they aren't around anymore. it can be about sleepless nights thinking about that moment of life.

3. The Tale Of October: this can be a narrative style of song, following the story of a memorable october – how that month symbolises something meaningful to the narrator. it can also include myths associated with this month (it's known as the month of gods in japanese folklore).

4. Cinderella's Shoe: a long-story short kind of song – but it focuses mainly on the negative/darker side of it. inspired by the saying “if cinderella's shoe fit her, why did it fall?” and the enchantment that wears off by midnight.

5. Insomnia: for all the night owls. for those nights where sleep is a distant place, an escape from reality, but it's hard to reach it. it'll include wild thoughts, anxiety and/or imaginations we may conjure while trying to sleep. this will be the saddest song, of course.

6. Werewolves: a song about transformation (every full moon, so contrasting the first track). halloween vibes that will first show werewolves (humans) as monsters but slowly show the misunderstood side of them. it will have reputation vibes and be the song connecting side a with side b.

☄️☄️☄️☄️☄️☄️☄️☄️☄️

Side B: Midnight Paradise

7. Meet Me At Midnight: the first single of the album. it will be a beautiful, romantic song but with hints of fear of losing it, just like delicate or peace. it'll also follow a timeline, like the first verse will be about 10 pm, the second verse will be about 11 pm and in the bridge, at midnight, the two lovers will finally meet.

8. Aquila: it's a midnight constellation, in the shape of an eagle. it'll be about the random bursts of creativity or ideas we may get when we are about to sleep. it can symbolise independence (like owning your own music) or about the growth that occurs in solitude, which no one appreciates us for.

9. Stargazing: another love song, but this one goes like a fairytale. like love story or invisible string. it can be about staying up late at night with someone special, spending your midnights with them after a long day.

10. Temporary Deaths: thinking about lost friendships or relationships and finally understanding how to let them go. it's a slow song about goodbyes, how they tear us apart, how we wish to avoid them, but they still happen. “temporary death” refers to how a part of us dies when someone we cherished disappears from our life.

11. Cerulean: it's about love that keeps you awake at night. it can either take a happy or a sad turn, depending on the listener, so the writing will just super creative.

12. Lanterns: inspired by the emily dickinson quote “i'm out with lanterns looking for myself”. taylor also mentioned ‘lanterns’ in the announcement post. it's about self-discovery or self-reflection. finding your mistakes, forgiving yourself and being free from the guilt, and working on being a better person. it's about accepting our true nature and being at peace with it.

13. The Witching Hour: technically, the witching hour is 3 a.m. so this song takes place after midnight. a story about witches (inspired by a poetry series i once wrote), how the public humiliates them but they stay up all night for a good cause instead. a song with i did something bad and mad woman vibes but it will have less angry tone, and more like “i turned the stones you threw at me into jewels” vibes.

so, this is something i've always wanted to do but never got the chance to do it. i'm not so sure about how much it makes sense or if it matches the theme of the album enough but this album allowed my imaginations to run wild and i knew i had to do something about it! let me know if you liked my ideas! and if possible, i'll try to write some of the songs or just turn them into poems. until next time, keep burning the midnight oil! *winks*
