Alfons Sylvatica
1st Year Birthday Story: A hollow mirror hides the truth in momentary pleasures.
So much goodness of Alfons' inner monologue. We learn more about him in a roundabout way. I just love the mix of naughty, sexy and sad. That cg is so pretty, I could have a full feature of Al and Kate making out with that backdrop. OOPS forgot to mention it's NSFW. 👀
I spent forever tinkering with some lines, and I'm still on the fence with how much of Al's formal speech I want to incorporate so here's a general comment that I might edit this and other stories.
~~~
Tumblr media
Alfons: "You said you wanted to celebrate, didn't you?"
Kate: "I've never heard of celebrating with alcohol and hookah in a place like this..."
Sitting in a corner of a small, dimly lit private room of the local 'watering hole,' Kate chastised me in a hushed voice.
Alfons: "Ha-ha! Did you really think you were going to have a wholesome birthday party in a cake shop?" 🎶
Alfons: "Now, move closer if you'd be so kind."
Kate: "..... what? Why do I have to get on your lap ......?"
Alfons: "Because it's more fun this way, of course. You're so uncouth."
Alfons: "I'm a selfless man, but... you sincerely wished to celebrate with me."
Alfons: "I'm sure I'll make you feel thoroughly entertained."
Kate: "....ugh!"
(How sweet of her not to curse at me this instant)
Until now, dear 'Robin' had to lead a truly peaceful existence in that good world of hers.
(I have no idea how she found out about my birthday or why she wanted to celebrate it)
I had no reason to refuse if she just wanted to have a good time.
(Even more so if it is a moment of entertainment to comfort her in her challenging life with the crown)
Alfons: "If you want to celebrate with me, forget all the difficulties and think only of pleasure."
I wrapped my arms around her waist and let my fingers roam her spine, making her squirm and look flustered.
Kate: "Ah... no, you can't...! Not in here."
Alfons: "Oh? But it's good because it's 'here'."
Kate: "Eh...?"
Tumblr media
Alfons: "You didn't follow me because you thought I was a gentleman who would protect your chastity, did you?"
Alfons: "Dressed so cute, you're like a cake on display."
Kate: "That's because you said we were going to a party."
Alfons: "I wasn't lying, 'Party' is the name of the venue."
Kate: "Wha.... nn!"
A strong shiver ran through her body as I moved my fingers over her bare arms.
Alfons: "Heh... I like your body. It's honest."
Kate: "Ugh, I'm going home."
Alfons: "You're so cold. Then, let's say I spend my birthday alone."
Alfons: "I declined all invitations for tonight because you said you would celebrate with me..."
Kate: "...um."
(Well, it's not true)
I wouldn't make any special arrangements with anyone just because it was my birthday.
Kate: "...will you promise me that you won't do anything indecent?"
Alfons: "I can't promise that. I'm often told that even my presence is indecent."
~~~
Later, after laughing at her choking on hookah and providing her with the most indecent step-by-step instructions, we arrived at home---
Perhaps it was the sweet and easy-drinking quality of the coctails, but their hefty alcohol content left her completely drunk.
~~~
Alfons: "Right. Here we are, Kate."
Kate: "Mhm.... thank you..."
After carrying her into her room, I slowly lowered her onto the bed.
As I gently brushed her hair away from her flushed cheeks, she narrowed her eyes in pleasure.
(Ah, so defenseless...)
(You're a bit too soft to live in the dark)
(Even if you're cautious, you'll still get hurt the moment you stick your head out)
I was sure there would be a lot of turmoil in her life from now on.
( ...... I can at least accompany you on a momentary diversion like today's)
Kate: "I'm sorry... Alfons... your birthday..."
Kate: "Happy birthday, congratula...tions."
Alfons: "Ah, you're slurring. Please, say it again cause it's awfully cute."
Kate: "Ugh... you're horrible..."
(What're you like... Since you're comfortably drunk, I should leave you alone, though...)
I sighed, looking at Kate, now dazed and shaking painfully.
I took off one of my gloves and gently touched her hot nape.
Tumblr media
Alfons: "You are not drunk. Your head is clear, and you don't feel dizzy."
Kate: "....., .....ah....."
As I twisted reality with my power to forcibly alter perception, Kate's eyes immediately became clear again.
Kate: "I'm... feeling better, thank you."
Alfons: "To be clear, you just don't have symptoms. That doesn't mean I got rid of the alcohol from your system."
Kate: "This ability... It's really amazing."
She pondered on something in silence, then looked straight at me.
Alfons: "... what is it?"
Kate: "Do you use it to make everyone... feel at ease?"
Alfons: "Yes, well. Depends on the situation."
Kate: "Won't they become... over reliant on you, when you're showing them convenient illusions in times of distress?"
Alfons: "People like that certainly exist amongst them."
Kate: "...What do you do in such situations?
Alfons: "I have a contingency plan."
Kate: "Which is..?"
Alfons: "I just walk away."
Alfons: "People are surprisingly forgetful when you distance yourself."
Alfons: "Though I'm careful not to get them to the point of dependendency. It's too much trouble."
Kate: "...Still, why are you showing illusions like these...?"
Alfons: "One needs a little bit of entertainment in life, don't you agree?"
Kate: "... This sounds strangely altruistic."
Alfons: "Indeed. I'm the epitome of altruism."
Kate: "But it's irresponsible to run away."
Alfons: "Yeah, I'm also an irresponsible arsehole."
Kate: "Seriously..."
Kate: "That's how you keep me from getting too involved."
(---ah)
(She's far too observant)
Her direct gaze made me flinch at times.
Ever since she arrived at the castle, her heart has been busy with worries and fears.
She tried to confront things far too seriously, considering that, after all, it was only for a limited time.
Despite being fragile and soft, she had the strength to face her fear of getting hurt...
I was envious and, at the same time, a little --- scared.
Kate: "I thought I'd get an idea of who you are by asking you about your birthday memories, but..."
Kate: "With alcohol and hookah... and your indecent pranks... you managed to dodge it, didn't you?"
Alfons: "I like the term 'indecent pranks'. The way it sounds..."
Kate: "... see? You're doing it again..."
It couldn't be helped since the truth was nowhere to be found.
(Even the fact that today is my birthday I made it up on the day I met El)
I didn't even know my real birthday. Or where I was born. Not even my real name.
But I had no intention of seeking the truth.
(Whatever the truth is, eventually --)
Kate: "I'm... very interested in you."
Alfons: "Isn't it natural to be interested in indecent things?"
Kate: "No, it's not! That's not all...!"
Kate: "It's because sometimes your face looks empty --- just like now."
Tumblr media
(... empty face)
(Mine...?)
Kate: "Therefore...... I'm curious as to why."
(-- ah)
(As expected, she's scary)
For a moment, I felt like I was about to be exposed, so I deliberately took a step back.
Alfons: "I'm touched that you were concerned about me."
She pursed her lips in frustration, as if she sensed that I was not going to answer her question.
Kate: "...I guess I didn't get to celebrate your birthday much today."
Kate: "Before we call it a day, is there anything you would like me to do?"
That was at least something I could respond to, feeling a growing sense of danger, heightened by her strong, searching gaze.
(I want her to have a hard time)
Tumblr media
(I don't want her looking straight at me anymore)
Softly reaching my hand out, I touched the unprotected nape of her neck.
Kate: "... what---"
Alfons: "`Isn't it customary to kiss someone when celebrating their birthday?`"
Her strong gaze wavered and became dull.
Kate: "....ah,... "
Kate: "Yes, you're right... Sorry, I don't know how could I forget?"
(Yes, this is good)
(Once she wakes up from this illusion... she will have no desire to search for the truth about me)
Alfons: "It can happen to anyone... Now, come here, please."
As I lay down on her bed and invited her to join me, I could see Kate's throat go up and down.
She straddled me, lifting up her pretty, cake-like dress.
Alfons: "...passionately, please?"
Kate: "....yes....mn..."
A kiss with the sweet scent of a hookah.
When I pushed the tip of my tongue into her mouth, her shoulders shook in surprise --- followed by her enthusiastic response.
As I teased her inside, she reacted with honesty, guiding me to her pleasure spots.
Kate: "ah....ha.....?"
Her eyes wavered in confusion as I reached under her dress and stroked her thighs.
Was she already accustomed to 'indecent pranks' or had she become less vigilant?
Maybe it was because of the innocent wish to give me a passionate birthday kiss...
I was able to caress her body with little resistance.
Tumblr media
(....how far will she let me go?)
(I only made her believe it was 'okay' to kiss me)
Kate: "Mm.....nn, n....!"
(She's so adorable)
I traced over her secret area through the underwear and slid my finger into the gap where the fabric had been shifted.
The kisses became more and more intense as I teased her wet spot ---
Kate: "Nn, no...!"
The moment I slipped my finger inside her, she recoiled and pushed back my chest.
Kate: "Birthday celebrations... are supposed to be just kisses, right!?"
She said so in a loud voice --
Kate: "....huh!? T-that... I-I..."
She seemed to realize the abnormality of her statement and suddenly put her hand over her mouth.
Katie: "What am I......doing now?"
Tumblr media
Alfons: "What, you ask? Isn't it obvious...? It's a kiss to celebrate my birthday. Very passionate, I might add."
Kate: "What!? Why..."
She looked down at her body with a mixture of turmoil, pleasure and shame.
Kate: "Please remove your finger..."
Alfons: "Are you sure? Where it is right now... says not to pull it out."
Kate: "You used your ability....?"
Alfons: "Yes. I just fancied you to do my bidding."
Kate: "...!?"
Kate: "....You wanted me to kiss you?"
Her eyes twitched slightly in anticipation of the truth.
(...Please, don't look at me like that)
(You know it's going to hurt)
Tumblr media
Alfons: "--No? I only wanted to toy with you using my power."
Kate: "...."
She glared at me with eyes still moist with pleasure.
(Pathetic and cute)
(I want this terrible experience make her forget about my birthday)
(I won't let her in)
Into my past, into my future, into my heart.
If I let her, who was fragile and gentle, step in too deep ---
I'm sure I would leave her with scars that never fade.
(There's only room for momentary pleasures between us)
(It's best for me and her that this doesn't go any further)
Alfons: "You have my sincere thanks for the birthday wishes."
In a daze, she watched me leave the room.
~~~
The reflection of my lips on the windowpane showed traces of her rouge.
(She went so far as to put on beautiful makeup just because she was going to a party with me... how adorable)
Why did I make her kiss me when there were other ways to keep her from getting too close?
Kate: "....You wanted me to kiss you?"
(... not a chance)
Tumblr media
Alfons: "Impossible."
Traced with my fingertips, the red colour spread to the skin,
From the mark that would disappear by tomorrow morning --
I couldn't take my eyes off it for some reason.
~~~
The letter

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ME!
Tumblr media
Today, August 30th, is my birthday and (conveniently) also the day I posted my first fic, It Wasn't A Bad Thing (Do not read it, read the rewrite), on Ao3 and entered the Byler community as a writer and eventually artist.
It's strange to think that I've been here for 365 days now. I mean, that's a lot of days, but it's honestly been so fun to get to know some of the people here and I just love you guys. All of you. Seriously.
As a birthday gift, maybe read one of my fics and leave a fun comment (I have them all listed in my pinned past, but I recommend the superspy, pirate, and zombie Will ones)! If not that, give me a silly drawing request I'll take days to finally get around to or even just a fun little ask!!
And I love to talk about myself, but over the year, there have been some very impactful people I've met on this site, and I'd just like to thank all of them for being so wonderful (if you're not on the list, I still love you, I promise. I'd name every one of my followers if I could), so without further ado...
Rainy's Thank You List of Very Awesome People:
@foodiewithdahoodie you, my friend, are the best. One of my first ever followers, even before I was an artist. I've had your support since day 1 and I'm so grateful to call you my mutual!! You're seriously the kindest ever <333
@microwaveonwheels You're just the most fun person, my favorite kitchen appliance. You've got the best (and sometimes the most challenging) drawing requests and you never ever fail to make me laugh with your tags. Keep your energy forever and ever, my biology genius mutual :)))))
@sillylittlerock If I have one fan, it's you. If I have 100 fans, you're one of them. If I have no fans, you have left the building. SILLYLITTLEROCK you are THE ROCK and genuinely the sweetest person ever. Absolutely my favorite and I hope you have the most beautiful of days. Rock gang, rock gang.
@callmetheidiot I hope the ex fight was worth it, you've let me become a wattpad fiend (jkjk I haven't even touched wattpad in over a week). You are the kindest and most wonderful of people, callmetheidiot. And I would never ever call you an idiot bc you are the absolute definition of the opposite.
@th3-third-duffel-bag You're the coolest ever. And it makes me laugh when you leave angry comments on my Ao3. Much, much love <333
@cringengl I don't interact with you much, but every time you like one of my posts, I feel like you're saying it's cringe and it makes me laugh every time. Have the most amazing of days today! I love you!
@runninguplenorahills If I had to have my first pointless internet beef with anyone, I'm glad it was you. I'll admit, I was wrong about the barbie movie thing. I'm just stubborn. I think you're awesome though, even if we're worst enemies now. (jkjk we're not enemies... unless...) (no jk again) Have a wonderful day!!!!
@elsbianism You know what? I just think you're neat. Even before I started following you I was just like gee, they're pretty neat. And then I did follow you! And now we're mutuals! And you're still the neatest person here, El, so congrats on that one.
@miaisagirllover MIA I LOVE YOU! Thank you for helping me to break the barrier between dimensions. I look at your pinterest every day like ahhhh my stuff. And you've just got the best takes, I'm sorry so many people like Billy. I'll try to stop them. Have a lovely day, friend!!
@chaoticbyler Just had to give a quick shoutout to my pinterest spy on the inside. Never would have even known my art was breaking barriers without your help. Thanks, soldier. I owe you one.
@midget-is-a-simp I don't think I have one post you haven't liked. And I've had minimal interaction with you, but if my life was a TV show, you'd be the character who showed up once a season and you're somehow everyone's favorite character.
@yearninginblue you are my superspy buddy for life and I love you so so so much <3
@phaniella your comments make my day and I love you for it <3
@howtobecomeadragon IDK HOW I ALMOST FORGOT YOU OMG YOU'RE THE BEST. BEST FOR LAST, I GUESS. YOU, my friend, are the sweetest ever and I'm so happy to be your mutual. The fact that you like dragons so much is so cool. Never ever lose your passion! Dragons are awesome (and so are you)!!
Alright, sorry it's long, but I had a lot of people to be thankful for (and, trust me, so many more who I couldn't fit to the list). If you see this, just know I love you more than anything and I hope EVERYONE had the best day ever.
Bye-bye for now,
Rainy Pebble

Year of the OTP challenge 2023
Tumblr media
So I post a lot of my fanfics on here to share with everyone because well I write them when I'm inspired. That being said last year my dear friend @mischief-and-tea-by-the-sea convinced me to sign up for the @yearoftheotpevent challenge which was unlike any I'd ever taken the opportunity to participate in before where each month you were given prompts to use as guidelines and tell stories with them. I decided at the beginning to go with something that told a WinterIron story from a beginning and over the months evolved through a year's time (or I should say two timelines as the story truly begins decades earlier and is mixed with the 'present'). Throughout the year the story took a lot of twists and turns becoming it's own epic thing in it's 12 different monthly story installments telling a larger picture for these two along the way. It's a lot of story because well it took a whole year to produce and develop, but it's one that I'm particularly proud of because it was a HUGE accomplishment for me that I can proudly say I finished. With that in mind if anyone likes WinterIron and is looking for something with some length behind it to give them a read through the colder time of year, then I welcome everyone to take a look at this year long project under the cut as I had a lot of fun with it!
Thanks to everyone who has taken the time to read this one and encourage me along the way in writing. It was truly a once in a lifetime adventure challenge and so much fun! I learned a lot about myself as an author through it and I would encourage anyone up for a challenge to give it a try in the future as well!

Top 10 Screenshots of 2023
Ty @akitasimblr for tagging me as always!! 💖 Here I have my top 10 screenshots and moments from 2023, ranked, and personally selected (because all of my most popular posts of the year are Total Drama Sims related)
Tumblr media
10. The Floating Festival
By far the strangest and funniest glitch I've seen in a while. Let this screenie be a toast to all the weird glitches I've had in my game this year!
Tumblr media
9. Wyatt Appreciation
I absolutely adore Wyatt. One of my favorite sims ever, but here's a fun fact: Wyatt wasn't originally gonna be in the story. It was originally just gonna be Megyn, Eva, and Jayden, but since we met Eva first, it wouldn't make the most sense if she only had one other friend to introduce to Megyn, so Wyatt came into existence! I also wanted an openly LGBTQ+ character in my story (Wyatt is nonbinary).
Tumblr media
8. My Broken Hand
Not Sims-related, but definitely worth mentioning since it was just a strange incident that disrupted my life in the strangest way possible. On the morning of September 15 I was walking down the hallway in my room (the basement) when I suddenly tripped and fell against the wall. I tried to catch myself but my hand landed in just an awkward enough position to break my 4th metacarpal (bone underneath the ring finger). I was in a variety of casts for 6 weeks and I was forced to put my story on hiatus again. I'm happy to say I am healed and completely back to normal, though it is still ever-so-slightly sensitive.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
7. Participating in community competitions for the first time
I submitted by sims Cylene Vinca (top) and Meredith Blakely (bottom) to both of @akitasimblr's bachelor challenges and had/am having an absolute blast! It inspired me to do my own community competition. I definitely plan on submitting my sims to more community things in the future!
Tumblr media
6. Megyn (in general)
Definitely my favorite sim ever at this point. Heck, I have a whole story about her!
Tumblr media
5. One Life Challenge
I started the One Life Challenge in March and finished it in October, and I had a lot of fun with it! The One Life Challenge is a challenge I invented myself, so if you wanna give it a try for yourself here's the rules post (I need to update the rules for For Rent though)
Tumblr media
4. Megyn reuniting with Eva
After being apart from her friends for a year, Megyn faced the reality that she would never lose a friend due to moving and separation again.
Tumblr media
3. Megyn reuniting with Sophia
Yea, it was definitely gonna happen, but when it happened I cried
Tumblr media
2. Megyn's first birthday with friends
You see that?? My girl has FRIENDS 😭
Tumblr media
Total Drama Sims
I still absolutely cannot believe how successful Total Drama Sims was when it launched. Of course it doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things, but I think it's significant how I reached triple-digit notes for the first time and got about 75 new followers within the last month.
Playing with other people's sims has been an absolute blast. Each and every sim has their own distinctive personality and it's been so fun get to know each one. I can also tell these sims were made by different people by how different they all look! From each other and from my own sims. Total Drama Sims is definitely my most successful endeavor yet, and I'm so happy all of you seem to enjoy it! So thank you 💖 I'm considering doing a season 2 down the road, because why not??

20 Questions for fic writers!
Thanks for the tags @artsyunderstudy @wellbelesbian @prettygoododds and @bookish-bogwitch! It was fun reading your answers 💜
1. How many works do you have on AO3?
22! 3 are collabs, and some of mine are quite short but I am still proud of that number.
2. What’s your total AO3 word count?
315,168. (That number is crazy) but again, some of that is collabs, including Birthday Man which is 39k and written by several people, and my part was very short. I would guess the real number is around 265k, which…damn. That’s still a lot.
3. What fandoms do you write for?
Carry On! That’s it.
4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
Plus One
Rose-Colored Glasses
Shield Me
How to Avoid a Scandal
Archery 101
5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?
Always! I love getting comments. We have such a rich comment culture in our fandom and it’s something I really enjoy participating in. I feel like I’m doing my part to keep that comment culture robust when I engage with other commenters.
6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
I was about to say I don’t do angsty endings, but then I remembered my mafia fic Button Man and, fuck. Yeah, that one’s real angsty.
7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
Most of them are happy I think. Beastly is a fairytale with a traditional happy ending, but honestly most of them are, especially the longer ones. I even left Button Man as ambiguous because I’m a wimp 😂
8. Do you get hate on fics?
Nope! This fandom is so nice, we rarely see hate and I hope we can keep it that way.
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
I do! Mostly super tender and full of emotion. Sappy porn.
10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?
Nope. A few AUs but none with any actual character crossovers.
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Not that I know of! Is that a thing? Beside AI scrapping I hadn’t ever heard of that.
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
No
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
A few! Plus One with @fatalfangirl and Archery 101 with @whatevertheweather, plus contributing to Birthday Man. Co-writing can be challenging at times but mostly it’s been good fun.
14. What’s your all time favorite ship?
Snowbaz. Always and forever
15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
I have some things languishing in my docs but the only WIP that’s published is Depth of Reason and I fully intend to finish it.
16. What are your writing strengths?
Probably emotions and inner thoughts. I like the plots and premises that drive my stories as well. I think I’ve got some creative ones in there.
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
When I read other works I can always find things i appreciate that others do well that I wish I could do better. I wish I was funnier. I wish I could write banter or witty dialogue or crack. I wish I could be more poetic. I wish my writing was sexier or more visceral. Maybe I’ll get better at these things. And maybe I’ll never write in styles I appreciate. Which is okay. We can’t do it all.
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?
Besame mucho 😘 No, idk my language skills are crap so I doubt I’d do this in a fic unless I saw a need for it in a story and I had someone’s help with it.
19. First fandom you wrote for?
Carry On is the only fandom I’ve written for. And the only creative writing I’ve done, too!
20. Favorite fic you’ve written?
Probably Depth of Reason. It isn’t finished but it’s my baby.
This was fun! No pressure tagging @fatalfangirl @whatevertheweather @cutestkilla @aristocratic-otter @facewithoutheart @hushed-chorus

This will be long and personal, so you can feel free to scroll past it.
Good things of 2023:
Grandmother’s 80th birthday; we had a celebration in a restaurant with family and her friends. Almost 50 people!
Morrie’s live stream Flesh Odyssey at his birthday (4th March)
My best friend @vinidra visited in March and I remember getting wasted and listening to Black Sabbath and Def Leppard till 3am. And watching that one 1989 Aerosmith live! Wasn’t there Dir en grey stream on GALACAA? I think we got access from a friend and watched that too.
On April 1st Morrie’s fan club Reveries opened on BitFan application – with foreign fans finally being able to join. It is a pricey affair, but the consistency and amount of content he brings every single day is so worth it. I love being a Reverie and having near direct contact with Morrie and the fans. So grateful for this community.
Right after Easter, on April 12th, we got BUCK-TICK’s new album. No one would predict it would be the last release before Sakurai passing away… It’s a solid record and ワルキューレの騎行 will forever be one of my favourite songs.
April was such a good month for me – on 18th I got the news I got promoted to a team leader. So, following a big raise for 2022 performance, I got another big raise with role change. Feeling like I’m finally getting the money I deserve for my hard work. The role is difficult and very challenging, but also satisfying and I enjoy what I do. It helped me a lot with improving my communication skills, standing up for myself and feeling confident with my decisions.
End of April was my friend Karin visiting, we went to Metallica symphonic concert in philharmonic and had amazing time overall during the long May weekend.
In May I came out to my co-workers and I was met with so much support I’m still overwhelmed. Being able to feel like I can be 100% myself at work is amazing. You don’t realise you need it until you get this freedom.
May 23rd was Boris live in Warsaw. I reconnected with an old friend and had amazing time with him during the gig. The show itself was everything I ever wanted from Boris – perfectly heavy and fast. Being front row surely contributed to that. My mission was to wait for the band after the show and talk to Atsuo and I succeeded! Got a picture with the band ant all. All possible thanks to a mutual friend of the band and mine.
May 31st – Def Leppard and Motley Crue in Krakow! Again hanging out with @vinidra and his friend. The show… let’s say Motley Crue was meh, though visual and female dancers were incredible. But Def Leppard was there to save the night, it was incredible and I had so so so much fun! Can’t wait to see them again live.
In June I visited Karin in Krynica Morska. It’s a very thin piece of land with sea at one side and huge lake on the other. I loved the beach walks there and hearing the waves at night, when falling asleep.
Also in June my close friend had a major surgery. So brave of her to decide to undergo it and I’m even more happy that she’s made steady recovery, now having no regrets.
June 20th was the day Josh Kiszka of Greta Van Fleet came out! I’m always happy learning that musicians I love are just as queer as me.
And by end of June DEAD END has re-issued all four albums from 80s: DEAD LINE, Ghost Of Romance, shambara and ZERO. Got them all, in true collector spirit.
July 21st Greta Van Fleet released a new album. I wasn’t stoked about it at first but of course – the more I listened to it, the more I fell in love with it. It’s probably my favourite album of the year.
I didn’t do anything special for my birthday on August 12th, but the following week I was flying to Cologne for a week to stay with my best friend. We did a lot of furniture and home decor shopping for the new house she moved into. We went to cinema to see Metallica’s live stream, and otherwise just had good time being lazy. Oh! And I helped her pick out and buy her first guitar. Love the visit in huge 4-story music shop in Cologne.
In September I’ve volunteered to take dogs from a shelter for walks for a day. I want to do it again.
On September 27th Morrie released another solo album Solitudes I. I feel like I didn’t listen to it enough this year, but this is miles better than Ballad D to me.
October 15th was election day in Poland and this was incredible – how many people showed up. For the first time I had to stand in the queue to vote. And we won. Fascist right wing government was overthrown. I have some home things will finally get better in my country.
Fast forward to November 5th – after a lot of trouble I made it to Hamburg and met with a friend I’ve know for years, but never had a chance to see in person. Had amazing time! It’s incredible to have such dedicated Morrie fan so close and be able to talk about music for couple of hours without feeling tired.
November 6th – I also finally met my close friend, we’ve never seen each other before. She’s such a lovely human being. She introduced me to Greta Van Fleet, so it felt only right to gift her a ticket to their show. The live was amazing, the most beautiful show I’ve ever been to. I will never get over how talented those young guys are.
From Nov 7th to 11th I was staying with my friend in Bielefeld. Met her cutest Siamese cat Bibi!
And last thing worth mentioning – I got the courage to go to company winter party and I actually had fun. I don’t remember when was the last time I simply wanted to have fun and when was the last time I danced. My whole body hurt after that night, but I really loved it. Oh, and I stole the neon flamingo lamp. Worth it.

I’m gonna share my DC character headcanons because I want to and no one can stop me! (I wish I had cool art skills to ad visuals to this but I am artistically challenged 😔)
Bruce Wayne:
Birthday: October 10th, 1991 (Spooky szn, also I decided he’s not old)
Sexuality: Bisexual he’s in love with Clark 😊
Favorite Animal: Bats because I’m basic
Has Autism
Height: 6’0
Favorite Food: Lasagna, it is inexplicably the only thing he can cook.
Gender Identity: Demiboy, He/They Pronouns
Now the juicy backstory…
-In my demented brain Bruce didn’t actually have a happy childhood before his parents death and that Thomas was kind of a traditional toxic masculinity man. I think Martha tried her best but couldn’t fully protect Bruce. Alfred was a friend of Martha that moved in after their deaths to take care of Bruce and instilled a lot more positive values in him.
-Is canon, absolutely not, but it’s my brain I can do what I want. I feel like this also helps explain Bruce’s struggles with being a emotionally vulnerable with his kids and the why he makes shitty choices sometimes.
-I also believe he wants to be better and genuinely tries really hard to be a good dad. Very much that trope of ‘I want you to have a better life than I did’.
-Post Alfred moving in with Bruce his development into Batman plays out pretty much the same, but he he does start to realize he is not the straight.
-After adopting Dick he finds out that his son is definitely not straight (caught holding Wally wests hand in a not god honoring way) and has a lot of internal turmoil, he wants to support his son, but has to wrestle with his own internalized homophobia. (Thanks Tom). Lots of angst it’ll be great.
-This contributes to Dick leaving and Bruce finally confronts his issues, enter Jason.
-Jason dies and Bruce goes all the way off the deep end, almost kills the joker. I actually like the idea that Dick stops him and then returns secretly to finish the Joker off, cause he thinks Bruce wouldn’t be able to recover.
-Tim gets adopted a little earlier because jack and Janet throw him out for being trans. Trans baby Tim is the best. This helps Bruce come to terms with his own identity again.
-Steph becomes robin because slay queen mama waffle boots the house spoiler
-Jason returns and has his under the red hood arc minus Bruce basically slitting his throat with a batarang cause I hate that and it makes no sense.
-Cass is adopted and becomes the silent chaos queen we deserve. I like many people headcanon her as being selectively mute, Bruce learns sign language faster than anyone else.
-Damian shows up around the age of 5 because again time is like dick Grayson, bendable as all hell. Bruce loves his babies but extra babies Damian because he loves him and sees a lot of himself in Damian and doesn’t want him to be like him.
-Bruce reachs out to Jason because he missed his son to much and he comes back and omg it’s just the best thing to ever happen pls DC let these boys be SOFT.
-Bruce adopts Duke because another vigilante child isn’t gonna make a difference now but little does he know that his fifth son is perhaps the most chaos gremlin of all. He is flashlight and he will step on the Jokers throat for fun, because not only did the joker jokerize his bio parents but he fucked with his brothers and his dad to much so he’s gonna toaster that man’s tub.
That’s my Bruce headcanon and time line the others won’t be this long but this is for me so I don’t care what anyone thinks teehee.

congratulations on 1K! you definitely deserve it! I absolutely adore your characterization for tom, and am always so excited whenever you post!
I would love to join the event if it's still going on! could i request the diadem (👑)? my name’s jennifer, im a slytherin, and i grew up with tom at wools orphanage. im physically affectionate, love to read and explore, and i like to joke around, lightly flirt with, and tease people. i normally keep most people at arms length though, so its rare for me to become close to anyone. when i truly care for someone though, i love to spoil them and spend time with them. i normally seem unapproachable, but im actually pretty friendly. im sure that after enough time has passed, id have fallen for tom, but i don't think he'd be interested, so im sure id bottle it up inside of me.
sorry if thats too detailed! i got carried away thinking about it! would it be possible to do tom riddle era (1930's - 1940's)?
once again, thank you for the fun event, and i hope you enjoy writing for our lord and savior tom riddle as much as we all enjoy reading your stories! 💚
👑𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐇𝐨𝐠𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐘𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬
𝓙𝓮𝓷𝓷𝓲𝓯𝓮𝓻
A/N: Thank you so much for your request! As I was writing this, I kept thinking how perfect of a pair you and Tom would make! But alas, you've asked for a diadem so I'll stick to your storyline of unrequited love.
I am sorry this took so long, and I appreciate your patience! I'm also sorry that this got rly long. I feel like it ended up being more like a fanfic rather than an HC. If you're not happy with it, or feel like this character isn't really you (especially the decision you make to forgive Tom at the end), feel free to DM and I'll redo it!

You were born the same year as Tom. With Tom's birthday being the last day of the year, you are always older than him, a fact Tom's not particularly fond of.
It took a long time for Tom to come around, but he had plenty of time to observe you and understand you as a person before approaching you for an alliance.
Needless to say, surviving an orphanage in the 1920s brought you and Tom close.
You two had to stick together in these hard times if it meant surviving your childhood. The malnutrition. Cholera. Tuberculosis. The flu. There were plenty of opportunities for either of you to die.
When the two of you were being scolded by Mrs. Cole, you two would hold hands together in solidarity.
Even with your eyes turned to the floor, you knew Tom was next to you, going through the same thing. And that was comfort enough for the two of you.
That meant if either had a chance to steal some food from the local vendors, you were sharing it.
One time, Tom managed to steal a candy bar called 'Milky Way' from America.
As malnourished children, the two of you ate that up in minutes.
It's one of your fond memories, hiding in the alleyway after school as the two lick your fingers clean.
Tom knew you were loyal, a trait he most appreciated about you. He knew that whatever he did to other orphans, you weren't going to rat on the Matron.
Tom displayed his magic first, and of course, he showed it to you and you only.
When you displayed your magic, he was disappointed at first, that he wasn't the special one.
But, as soon as he realised that his magic was superior to yours (and everyone's, the nerve of him), he grew to appreciate that he can share this with his closest friend.
--
It felt like winning the lottery when you both got the visit from Dumbledore.
The world was your oyster, free to explore and take to your content with Tom.
Visiting Diagon Alley together, and shopping for Hogwarts as you two experienced everything new, is also one of your cherished memories.
A sense of solidarity brought you two even closer, to challenge and learn about the new world together. You two were literally inseparable.
A lot of your time is spent with Tom, exploring the wizarding world, whether through books or in real life.
After spending your first night in the Slytherin dorm, you and Tom met up to discuss. You both agreed that, in order to survive this pureblood frenzied house, it would be wise not to disclose about the muggle orphanage you two grew up in.
𝐀𝐜𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐜𝐬
You are an excellent student, always learning and reading.
Professors do notice your teasing remarks in class when someone embarrasses themselves. But, some professors enjoy your comments and are more lenient than others as long as it's not too disruptive.
You're quite good at Care for Magical Creatures.
After having to take care of some creatures during class, some of these beasts really grew on you.
You spoil them by stealing some food from the kitchen or the Great Hall, giving them a taste of "real food" as you say.
In the later years, when you and Tom stopped sneaking into the kitchen, this comforted you and replicated the endearing memories of sharing food with Tom.
Being the high-achieving Slytherin that you are with the actual ability and interest in classes, you easily make it to prefect.
Dumbledore is somewhat cautious of you, suspecting that you might be enabling Tom.
𝐑𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬
You may be intimidating at first, but you end up being quite popular as people figure out that you're friendly and kind, unlike some of the Slytherins.
Your jokes and teases are funny, and everyone knows it's always a fun time when you're involved.
Others may think they know you quite well.
But, you know that they don't know the real you. You wouldn't call them your close friends.
Really, the only person that would fit that category is Tom, who's practically known you for your entire life.
With your fun, flirty nature and teases, some people turn bright red, not used to the direct advances. And they love that. They love your attention and tease.
Needless to say, you get quite a few letters from secret admirers.
(𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝) 𝐑𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐓𝐨𝐦
The first few years felt just like before with Tom, just in a different environment.
Sneaking out of the dorm at night to explore the castle.
Stealing some late-night dessert from the kitchen to eat on top of the Astronomy Tower, enjoying the sugar that is definitely a luxury back home.
Sneaking into the Forbidden Forest. Exploring Hogsmeade.
Only Tom got your special attention. You would spoil him with your time and love and gifts.
Tom was the same. He truly cared for you and you only, and he expressed his appreciation for you in a similar way.
Before you go to sleep, you'd find a small box, hidden underneath your pillow.
However Tom got into the girl's dorm will remain a mystery.
Sometimes, they're notes detailing the earnest feelings he couldn't confide to anyone else. His anxiety. His fears. His joy.
Oftentimes, they're expensive jewellery, maybe purchased, maybe stolen.
"The prettiest jewellery for the prettiest girl I know"
The note would say in a childish attempt at being suave.
But, starting 4th year, things began to feel different. He's grown tall. His intellectual eyes always looking straight ahead. His sharp cheekbones and jawlines signalling his approaching adulthood.
You began to feel a flutter in your heart every time he caught your eyes in class.
--
At the same time, you noticed a change in Tom as well. You couldn't quite place it, but it felt like he was growing out of your reach.
Like you weren't just two kids that goof around anymore.
Some would say that's only natural as children begin to recognise the changes and differences between the genders. But, you felt like there was something more than just that.
He would spend hours in the library, researching something.
It no longer seemed like having fun exploring with you was the priority for Tom, as he focused on his studies and his achievements.
His talents were unheard of, and you felt the bitterness that he was going to places you cannot follow.
He would still hang out with you, though it was no longer just you he hung out with. Abraxas Malfoy, Lestrange, Avery, and a few other Slytherins began taking up Tom's time.
It seemed like they were meeting late at night without you. When you inquired Tom about it, he merely chuckled,
He'd lift your chin up with his fingers with a smirk
"Wouldn't want to join some vulgar conversation of teenage boys, do you?"
You'd freeze under his teasing gaze. Who wouldn't?
Taking your silence as a cue for agreement, Tom would run his thumb over your cheeks.
"Now, smile - for me."
Countless times you've thought about telling him, writing to him about how you felt about him.
But, you'd see his large shoulders, hunched over the table as he focused on assignments or creating new spells
And every time, you'd end up swallowing the words, knowing Tom had his mind set on things greater than romance.
--
It's in the late 5th year when you begin to worry about Tom's mental health.
One night, he comes bursting into your room. Agitated, he is pacing back and forth in front of you.
He knows your loyalty, so he knew he could only come to you to open up about the murder he's just committed.
It finally dawns on you what had been distancing you from Tom this whole time.
It was his hidden obsession with his family line, the Dark Arts, his rage and vengeance: all of the things Tom had kept from you this whole time.
You place a comforting hand on his trembling cheeks as he looks up to you with teary eyes, almost pleading silently, as if begging for your forgiveness. Your acceptance.
As you look into his eyes, his face line still retaining a bit of that youthful innocence, you'd wonder 'where it all went wrong.'
Where did your Tom go? That endearing boy who would steal candy bars for you. That kind, protective boy who would gift you jewellery, calling you his 'one and only.'
You seriously pondered, whether you recognised the Tom in front of you. Whether you were ready to forgive him.
But still, you couldn't get the image of his kind smile out of your mind. The way he used to smile before it all went to shit.
His soft lips curved in a similar way, still. His eyes still shimmered innocently, still.
In the end, you made him promise not to delve into Dark Arts again. It ends here.
And that he'll come to you whenever his rage and vengeance overtook him.
Tom flashed the most beautiful smile up at you. A tear pouring out in relief.
He took your hands and hastily pressed his lips to it, causing you to feel a clenching pang in your heart.
"I promise, Jennifer," he said with a smile. "I won't let you down."
We all know that Tom wouldn't keep his promise.

The Color of the Costume, Conan,,
Evening
I've told you that I had a lot of fun at USJ,

I really, a bit before the Conan limited series started, Where would I go, to USJ?? is what it was like lol
But also always wanted to go to Mario too🫶🏻
Probably, it would be difficult for, Mario and Conan in 1 day, Since its good! To concentrate on one thing at a time!
Lets go again~~~
its Friday Road Show for Conan,
On YouTube, They're streaming the Kid anime, I also watched that,
I gave up after 12 episodes of Magic Kaito (2010), but now I saw there is a Magic Kaito (2014)~
And since I've also watched Conan VS Kaitou Kid on Netflix before,
I've seen the Clock Tower story, many many many times😂🫶🏻 Also the airwalking as well😂🫶🏻
Its interesting to see both points of view! Amazing (This is probably a sentiment that has been said many times)
For the movies as well, Sunflowers of Inferno, Dimensional Sniper, Private Eye's Requiem, Crimson Love Letter, Halloween Bride, since I've looked back on those so far, the timeline is jumbling around in my head
Really recently, its been that kind of brain←

source
Tumblr media
Name: Arurandeisu Company: Holostars (1st generation) Streaming platform: YouTube SNS: X (Twitter) Hashtags: Live #アランストリーム / Fanart #アランの画廊 / Clips #切り抜きナンディス Character/Model designer: lack Debut Date: September 8th, 2019 Birthday Date: November 11th Height: 184cm Introduction: He is a detective, phantom thief, teacher, samurai, sniper, and demon hunter. A mysterious Italian who has traveled wide and far through different worlds. He currently devotes his days to this world after being entrusted with the dream of becoming an idol. While he claims to be the man of brains, he often relies on his brawn in the end. He likes pizza, meat, and cola.
10 QUESTIONS FOR VTUBERS
Q01. Tell us your main (streaming) content! Game and planned project streams, I also do DJ stream sessions playing Holopro songs, and I pretty much dabble in various genres!
Q02. What was the cue that kickstarted your streaming activity? Because I'd like to experience lots of things, I only got one life after all!
Q03. Please recommend us your “newcomer’s friendly” videos or stream archive! First, the quadratic equation-solving stream with Hiodoshi Ao-kun! To be honest I actually own a teaching license in science course, so I was able to make something like this. Of course, there's Ao-kun effort to solve the problems, and it shows in her remarkable growth in this stream alone! Link to the stream
Secondly, Since I have a pretty sturdy physics and all, I tried doing an experiment on myself. Now that I recall, each of these "world-level" tastes is pretty strong on its own. Once I had mixed it all in, turned out there was one flavor that stood out… Which you can check on the stream itself! Link to the stream
The third is a quick and entertaining one! I'd like to do something like this again but with more people. Link to the stream
Q04. Tell us things that you like or something you’re good at! I'm good at playing Rubik's Cube! I can solve one in under 40 seconds. And I like to stream, do muscle training, and DJ-ing!
Q05. Tell us a hobby or content that has piqued your interest lately! I've been really into fighting games recently!! In my day off I'd like to practice in the training mode quite religiously too. I also like reading manga and I have a wide preference in terms of genre. Among the ones I started reading recentlyー Chi. (Orb), Sousou no Frieren and Yofukashi no Uta are among the ones I really like!
Q06. Is there any VTuber around that has caught your attention? Let us know! Hanasaki Miyabi. The pioneer of our group, quite an interesting guy.
Q07. What are other things you’re paying attention to other than VTubers? Eiko Kano-san. I really like watching streams that could make me laugh a lot.
Q08. Is there a recent thing that left a deep impression on you, and is there anything else you’d like to try out? Since I like to do a lot of muscle training, I'd like to be involved in work with a protein supplement brand!!!!
Q09. What sort of content you’d like to challenge yourself for now? I'd like to come up with stream ideas, like holding game tournaments and such. It would be nice if I could make a fun project that gets people excited and happy!
Q10. Tell us your message to the readers! Thank you for reading this article until the end!! If you're interested feel free to check out my channel! It would be nice if you could watch my stream and comment on it tooー!!

20 questions for writers
I was tagged by my other half @wingsofescape for this and it sounds fun! (thank you babe, you made my shitty day a little better)
1. How many works do you have on AO3?
28 (I had to open my ao3 and check because, oh boy, since when I write that much?
2. What's your total AO3 word count?
274,269 (just found out there is a thing call "Statistics" so I don't have to count them one by one, ao3 is awesome)
3. What fandoms do you write for?
Mainly FMA! Very much Ed and Winry in different worlds but also, some cannon because FMA lives in my heart and mind, rent free, since I first watched fifteen years ago. I also wrote 2 fica for Arcane and 1 fic for The Witcher (but this one was a birthday gift)
4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
resting on a knife, you heavy souls - 793 kudos (Arcane)
it's called home - 312 kudos (FMA)
5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?
I used to! I used to answer all of them and I love love comments and discuss about fics, but since last year I am emotionally unable to reply to the amazing comments I get! Maybe someday I'll return replying comments, but right now, I am loving to write the stories and just enjoy this bit.
6. What's the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
I think it's mercy, my love, or I'll crumble (FMA) because it's the only time I wrote a bittersweet/angst with no happy ending story.
7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
Happiest ending? Pretty much all my fics, but if I'd to choose one, I'd say it's you drew stars around my scars because it ends with one of the best kissing scenes I ever wrote and:
Edward smirks, the light reaching his eyes. 
"I think that’s okay," He links their fingers and stares at her, his eyes shining, like the young man he has always been. "My heart has always been yours, anyway." 
or maybe war tangles the strings that binds us because there's is ANGST in there but in the end, they kind of end up together:
"You said prophecies always come to life. And the prophecy said Ed — the heir of the sun — would conquer the moon." 
Pianko hums and looks ahead. He follows her eyesight again and sees, like a secret spectator, the palpable love in front of them. 
Old Granny smiles again when Edward holds her granddaughter's hand, his fingers traveling against her cheek while Winry smiles the happiest smile Pinako has ever seen.
Pinako smiles wisely. "I think he already has." 
OR it's my canon au where Ed is a stay at home dad who ends up (unnoticed) adopting a young girl to teach her alchemy in keep your little heart warm:
"I saw you talking before, you are an alchemist, right?" The man says, pointing at Edward. "And a teacher?" 
Edward frowns for a moment, before staring at Amelia. She just raises her brows, challenging him to answer for real this time – he never does, he jests, dodges the question, leaves them talking about, but never an answer – but he just smiles, fondly at her. 
Edward takes a step closer, rubbing Amelia's head in the same fatherly way he does since she was ten. "Nah, I'm just a stay at home dad." 
So, yeah. Maybe all of them?
8. Do you get hate on fics?
Hmmm, sometimes. I deleted all the comments but I did receive like two or three angry comments but it was very clear they were sexist and just stupid, so I ignore them.
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
Oh, boy. Oh, BOY. DO I WRITE SMUT? so so, hear me out: it wasn't my plan to write that MUCH SMUT in my life, but as it turns out, here we are. I do very much write smut. A lot of it. Almost filthy smut, some may say.
10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?
Nope, never did and don't think I will.
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Ah... I don't think so?
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
No, but I translate my all the time because English is not my first language lol
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
Mentally? All the time. @woahpip and @wingsofescape are the greatest writers in this place and they always help my write stuff.
14. What's your all-time favourite ship?
Oh, boy. Definitely Edward and Winry, but I do have some others that I will never write about.
15. What's a WIP you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?
The bodyguard au prequel! I wrote ten pages of that already, I'd love to finish but I don't think I will.
16. What are your writing strengths?
None? ASDABSBJHJH kidding, okay. Maybe write from the heart? I try to make my characters, in any universe, as human as possible. More than once I find myself rethinking dialogues because "no no, that person wouldn't answer like that, that's too fast". And perhaps the ability to write smut in a tender way? I focus more on what the characters are feeling than on the act itself.
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
No matter how much I try, I'll never portray exactly what I want in my stories because language is a huge barrier. I understand English and I can write but I don't feel English, it's different. And grammar mistakes? Only writing when my brain wants to? Idk, there's a bunch.
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?
LMAAAAAO, read the other answers, sometimes it's very easy! Sometimes it sucks because I don't feel the other language like I can feel mine (Babel Tower, I fucking hate you)
19. First fandom you wrote for?
FMA <3
20. Favourite fic you've ever written?
Oh, boy. Canon FMA Brotherhood, I'd say you drew stars around my scars. Alternative Universe? Right now, the bodyguard au, welcome to my cage, little lover
this was so FUN! <3 I'm tagging here @woahpip, @emmagency and anyone who wants to!

Jadeeeeeee !!!
I’d like to know about 1, 11 and 13! 👁️👄👁️
And again, happy birthday king, thank you for ruining my life and making me more insane, i love youuuu ! 🎈❤️
Tumblr media
(^that’s me and you, you can chose who you are)
MEGGIEEEEEEEEE COMING IN HOT WITH HOCHI AND HO RANGI 😭 thank u for letting me ruin your life. it was surprisingly easy??? and i enjoyed every minute of it 😌 ily!!
as for the ask game
(1) favorite fic i wrote this year
it's a tie between aphelion and force quit, although the latter hasn't been finished yet. both were/are super challenging for very different reasons, and i think they've forced a lot of growth and introspection out of me.
(11) fandom you enjoyed writing for the most this year
see, this is really hard because i had a ton of fun characterizing svt in the few fics i have, but i think i'm enjoying writing force quit the most from a plot/world-building standpoint, which is stray kids, so ??
(13) favorite writing song/artist/album of this year
FRICK. i got a ton of mileage out of boygenius' "the record" as far as direct inspo. (see here and here and even here), but hozier's "unreal unearth" was my favorite thing i've ever heard has inspired me super generally to dig deeper into the concepts i write about. that, and i listen to it on a constant basis, so "son of nyx" was unofficially the soundtrack of everything i've written since august (because it's instrumental and my ADHD can't handle vocals when i'm concentrating elsewhere).
🪩 send me an end of the year ask
