Mission failed everybody. Chapter will be up tomorrow I’m speaking it into existence

Currently making a pilgrimage to go see sea slugs at the aquarium and clawing my way through my chapter on the car ride. I told my readers that I would actually have it done in 2 weeks this time and not 3 but here we are on upload day 2 weeks in and I have exactly 174 words written HELP

#any writer mutuals have tips for when you start to fall out of love with a long form project and feel like you’re slogging through #but you owe it to yourself and your readers to finish it #like what do y’all do when you start to struggle with something you love and feel like it doesn’t come easily to you like it used to

Guys I was thinking about how Akaza replaces his vest after fights and then suddenly by brain provided me with a VERY important question:

This literally has zero importance except for the fact that it is very funny to think about where the different demons would fall on this. Douma definitely bathes frequently, for example. Akaza…definitely sweaty. But, like, he can get away with it somehow. Gyokko? Rankest of rank.

Anyway. Answer from the heart, whether it’s with a specific demon in mind, or on demons in general!

Actual footage of me editing chapter 62 of my fic and being forced to reread the most butt writing I have ever seen (It’s my fault) (I wrote it)

But like. For real guys I am doing my best and appreciate your patience <3 My writing is maybe not quite what it used to be right now, but hopefully I will feel better about next chapter! :D

heelllooooo! i am currently on chapter 24 of TToF and holyyyyy this is probably one of the fastest times ive tried reading a fic. not that its working

literally has nothing to do with the plot that im on at the moment but i frekin love how you write akaza/hakuji and shinobu + hakuji’s shared disgust for douma makes me very not normal.

im gonna guess you are in hashira training arc/infinity castle arc? random shower thought but have you touched on how hakuji n giyuu have very similar guilt motives…survivor’s guilt “not being able to protect loved ones” etc etc like i just wanna know if you’ve touched on that. please and thank you i love your fics.

Hello hello!! Thank you so much for reading my fic and I am so glad you’ve been enjoying it! I am currently in one of the biggest writing slumps of my life trying to slog through infinity castle right now, so your encouragement means a lot <3

And yes you are so right!! Hakuji and Giyuu also share the special and terrible knowledge that they weren’t there when their loved ones needed them most :’( Giyuu holds a very special place in my heart as the only one who had the ability to empathize with and trust the Kamados in their most vulnerable moment. I think most of the other Hashira would not have been able to spare the two of them. He gets a bad rep for being “cold”, but he has a lot of depth to him! Add that to the list of parallels—both Giyuu and Akaza are viewed as detached and cold by their coworkers. Which would, theoretically, make Douma to Akaza what Shinobu is to Giyuu, although comparing her to Douma opens a whole other can of worms!! Oh boy. I’m supposed to be writing right now, Anon, but you’ve got me monologuing. Again. Oops! Good thing I have until Saturday to write this chapter, because I am vehemently avoiding it. Thank you for the distraction by allowing me to talk about other parts of my fic, rather than the one that is giving me such hell!

Look forward to more Giyuu in chapter 39 (Prayer)! He hadn’t been around in awhile, and I figured he deserved a little more screen time. Considering he did save Hakuji’s life.

Thank you so much for the ask!! Please feel free to bother me about TToF or Kny in general at any time <3 :D

heyyy lol it has been chaos week but guess who is finally writing chapter 62 of TToF😇 pretend it hasn’t been 3 fucking weeks since I posted I am SO SORRY

Why are fight scenes so hard to write. Why why why can Kokushibo not just fuck right off please and thank you

#Writing this chapter literally feels like pulling teeth #Why can’t Kyojuro just snap his fingers and kill Kokushibo with the power of friendship why do they have to battle #RELEASE ME #the tide of fate #fic woes #demon slayer #kimetsu no yaiba

HELLO FRIENDS UPDATE!! It has been a very, very long week (will elaborate in my next author’s note!) and I realized that I have literally never ever taken a break from uploading this fic aside from Christmas time when I wrote the other fic instead. Seeing as I have an early morning event tomorrow, I think I’m going to push this week’s upload back! I definitely do not want to rush this section because we’re setting up for some really big battles here. So I will post the new chapter as soon as it’s done, but definitely before the end of the week!! Thank you all for your patience with me <3

Guys help why is writing the infinity castle the most difficult and awful thing ever. I feel like that fucking robot that’s trying to scrape the liquid back in to keep itself going

@octoooo thank you so much for tagging me in these fun little picrew games!!! I love them!!

Here’s a little fishbowl for my blog <3 Had to include the spider lilies to stay on theme!

Tagging my usual suspect: @the-soapiest-suds

friends. friends. make a little fishbowl for your blog.

Here’s mine! Forest-y setting to go with my usual theme, a night sky to match my current theme, a writing desk for my stories and piles of books for all the old books I love reading. I also put my cat in there, cause he loves bothering me while I write and a glass bowl would do nothing to stop him.

#Yippee!!! #tag game

Spiraling About Kimetsu Academy Hakukoyu (Again)

EVERYBODY WAKE UP THE NEW KIMETSU ACADEMY CHAPTER CONFINED THAT KOYUKI’S SICKNESS IS STILL A THING :’(((

Like she clearly seems healthy now?? Which means that this follows canon in which she got better by the time she was sixteen and Hakuji was eighteen—but considering Hakuji is still set to take over Keizou’s dojo, a lot of the tragedy in their past might still have happened.

The thing that surprises me here is that it specifically points out both of their parents, which means Hakuji’s dad has to still be alive (unconfirmed about Koyuki’s mom, who may have still been unable to cope with her daughter’s illness). However, the death of Hakuji’s father was what caused him to meet Koyuki and Keizou in the first place—so how would that have happened?

So, of course, I’ve made a theory.

The Kimetsu Academy canon states that they’re neighbors, so it wouldn’t be too far fetched to assume that they are friendly with each other. In order for Hakuji to become so close with Koyuki’s family, though, it would make sense if his father still got sick. Assuming that Hakuji’s mother is still not in the picture, Hakuji’s father would likely have a hard time keeping his family afloat (hence their sudden dip toward poverty).

Of course, Hakuji would be prone to getting into trouble around this time. He described himself as a rule breaker, which is very common among young students with trouble at home. (The pickpocketing habit is debatable—it would have been much less effective nowadays, when getting medicine is a lot more complicated.) This could be the time where his childhood persona ‘Akaza’ came around. Unlike Hakuji, Akaza wouldn’t have to worry about people he loved getting sick or going to bed still a little bit hungry, because all he had to worry about was being tough and strong. I could definitely see this as a way for Hakuji to channel his stress—because who doesn’t love beating people up as a coping mechanism? He might have been spending a little more time around the dojo at this point in an attempt to keep getting stronger, which could lead Keizou to notice the subtle signs of struggle.

Assuming that Koyuki was sick around this time as well, I can see Keizou setting up a deal with Hakuji’s father, who I imagine must have been ashamed to ask for help. His proposal: Keizou would provide free childcare by letting Hakuji stay at his place while his father worked (also would keep him out of trouble!), and in exchange, Hakuji would help out with keeping Koyuki company and doing chores around the dojo. This arrangement obviously worked out quite well, and would take a little stress off both families. As Hakuji was exposed to Koyuki’s gentle influence, he grew out of his Akaza persona (around the end of middle school, probably.) And, of course, both Koyuki and Hakuji’s father got better!! Yay!

Obviously, this is all speculation. But it would piece together all the little pieces of their backstories we have, and explain how Hakuji and Koyuki’s families became so close. The one question I still have…is Soyama Hakuji’s family name, or Koyuki and Keizou’s? (of course, thanks to my trusty translator fertheart on insta who is literally my only source of Kimetsu Academy content lmao)
