#i need a novel project

[digitalsymbiote]

Really wanna make a VN about mechs and AI copilots and plurality and dysphoria and humanity and identity and the experience of inhabiting a body that is not your own and sharing that body with someone who knows every facet of your being and you know every facet of their being and you both love each other for and despite it and you help each other break out of the shackles of a future capitalist militaristic dystopia with your shared metal and flesh body

#i wanna write thiiiisssss #but i need the spoons to actually write it #but anyway i think it would be cool and neat and a fun passion project to work on #visual novel #empty spaces #cybernetic dreams #mecha #robots #and of course itd be queer and transhumanist as fuck #cus im queer and transhumanist as fuck

i really wish v for vendetta (both the movie and the graphic novel) hadn't become associated with deeply irritating (and often reactionary) online political subcultures bc it really does slap so fucking hard

#re: the movie someone needs to write something about how two very famous and popular wachowski sister projects #(i.e. the matrix and v for vendetta) #became these loci for online far right symbolism and narratives #it's especially weird since both the matrix and v for vendetta could be read as pretty trans-coded #and are both VERY explicitly grounded in left-wing politics........... #i just don't get it tbh #anyway i'm reading the graphic novel now and really enjoying it #v for vendetta #text

Not that I needed a NEW project to work on but... Here's my Underfell take. Let's see where this goes.

#look I'm burnt out on Angel's and I need a small break from FR as I rear up for the side story game. i made the main assets for it and the #story is mostly planned out and ready to be written #i want to do some concept stuff and i only have one life to live and I'm going to do what makes me happy!!!! #underfell #undertale #also i'm being vauge to what kinda game this will be. might be just a visual novel like New Royals! Maybe its a playable game! #we'll find out someday. rn i'm just getting the core concepts down #i actually have been thinking about this for a while but something clicked in my head and now I'm determined to make this thing #so ike. backstory time. i worked on a big project with a friend but that project had history unrelated to me #that it was best for that project to be cancelled and I'm glad it did #BUT i did a lot of cool writing for that AU and I want to use those ideas #so i realized itd be cool as hell to make it a part of my underfell take

Bit of a talky one today.

(m!Bal is calling the other Ambrosius 'sir' because he can recognize a trained knight even when he's no longer active, and because calling him by name would feel weird.)

the writers on here making the miguel fics need to remember his fangs inject paralytic venom hes not a real vampire it was just a joke in the movie 😭

oh but i still want him to bite me don’t get me wrong idgaf if they have venom 🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️

#the copious amounts of smut i’ve seen with this man and the fangs is crazy #y’all need to tone it DOWN wheres the fluff omg?? #there’s like so many smut x reader fics clogging the miguel o’hara tag and people can express their creative liberties or whatever but it’s #getting CRAZY #like why is almost nobody talking about his character and writing an analysis on him #AND WHY ARE SO MANY FICS WRITING HIM TO BE SOME FERAL AND MEAN BEAST #firstly it’s feels racist to write a brown latino man that way. #second it feels fetishiz-y with how people only sexualize the fuck outta him and talk about nothing else when it comes to him #to add onto that people are drawing him with a MUZZLE on #at first all this didn’t really register in my head as bad but after seeing so much i see it 😭 #also some spanish speakers have said people are using incorrect spanish when writing dialogue for him and thats kinda funny #don’t use google translate please 💀 #miguel o’ hara #spiderman 2099 #across the spiderverse #i also saw someone say miguel would not be a good partner or something and i just know you didn’t pay attention #and i wont go into why because its spoilers but we have seen him be soft and happy with someone he cares about it’s just trauma that has #made him mean and depressed #he was obviously projecting onto miles in the movie when he acted like that let’s be fr #why am i writing a novel down here idk i just wanted to talk about it a little #i love the smut (trust me) but pleaaseee don’t start being fetishize-y

The immense satisfaction that comes from saying "wait, how old is this book?" when Amazon tries to sell me a very old-fashioned-looking work for 'just £1.99' and then finding it on Project Gutenberg for free instead.

#that history book from 1900 is going to be very out of date but sometimes there's some appealing element in there #and obvs many primary sources themselves are already old anyway #and old fiction too! mary shelley wrote a novel about perkin warbeck! (i need to get round to reading that one) #70000 free books you are bound to want at least one of them right? #has the author been dead for long enough that you think of them as a historical figure? their work is probably free by now! #tumblr faves Moby Dick and Dracula are there you know. Sherlock Holmes! Oscar Wilde and Jane Austen. Mary Shelley AND her mum! #protip: rename the files as you download them otherwise you'll never guess which is which as the filenames are just numbers #*slaps the roof of project gutenberg* you can fit so much out-of-copyright material in this thing.

one thing about me is that there will always be a very sad guy who's doomed by the narrative & there will always be the familial polycule or whatever so desperately trying to save them & the family n polycule's actions will always have world-rending consequences which either make things better or worse depending on where my mental health is at during the time of writing. this is something you must understand about every heart project i have ever worked on or become attached to since the dawn of time.

I Love My Doomed Guys. #If They Arent Doomed Enough In Their Canon I Will AU Them Into Misery My Damn Self #every novel-length project i've ever completed has unintentionally had the same formula #there are four guys. one is dying faster than the others who are also dying. #you gotta save the splintering wreck of a person. you can't save them in a way that matters. you still have to try. #the original fiction quartet. wwaitsoatl. princess luz AU. soulmate verse. trc vampire AU. bota. toag. and so on. #the princess AU is arguably an outlier bc it's two (or three counting amity) core cast members #and then the fourth guy is belos or raine or camila or somebody else depending on the installation. #everything else though.

tf kinda potent shit did they bake into this kim dokja guy. he's got some of the most compelling parent-child relationships i've ever seen in fiction. kim dokja and his mom...kim dokja and his daughter... nobody warned me. you're all in the doghouse. read orv at own risk i guess.

#i'm trying not to project family relationships onto found family characters but i think it's fair in the case of shin yoosung specifically #because kim dokja says at one point that he considers his sponsor-incarnation relationship with her to be parent-child #and then he becomes biyoo's father. like he hatches her and raises her and also gives her his metaphorical dna #and is given the title of 'father' #so like. i'm counting it. #orv #omniscient reader's viewpoint #my posts #kdj #sys #lsk #anyway guess who just reread like 30 chapters because i needed my shin yoosung fix 😩 #it's already gonna take you so long to read this novel you idiot stop rereading parts before you're even finished!!

#my dumb stuff #poll #polls #tumblr polls #im just curious mostly #totally won’t influence the way I write them at all #in a silly way of course #never mind the fact that these are some of my players in a high stakes sci fi ish political drama allegory that I’m writing #not the Main Two tho that are pitted against eachother these are just the main spy type cast they have at their disposal #for some good old fashioned espionage and power of information type shit #my Main Two are funny tho cus one of them is essentially a JFK stand-in and the other ones like #what if the most insufferable Wall Street bro you’ve ever seen genetically modified to be as annoying as humanly possible was also #incredibly good at giving speeches and making money #and he sucks so bad btw I hate his guts but he’s also my twisted babygirl #I love my Kennedy boy too tho what can I say #I love my writing projects #this one’s got a cool name too and I feel like if I can get the plot worked out I’d have a really cool standalone novel #I’ve got the themes and writing style and some characters worked out same with particular motifs and repeated metaphors and stuff #I just need the plot beats #and I just read John Trubys Anatomy of Genres so like I’m psyched and ready to go baby this is gonna be so fun

Man, I really need to save my money for my trip to Japan

quite frankly i am shocked & disappointed with the Phandom for the lack a werewolf AUs. where is your fucking awoo

#Fic Writer With ADHD Politely Reminds World That Werewolf AU Fic Ready To Go Whenever (If They Remember To Post It) #y'all literally have an excuse to make a whole chaptered fic about Danny being a feral wild animal & are ignoring it. smfh #literally werewolf AU is so easy you literally just make everything the same except instead of ghosts it's werewolves #& yet. i've only ever seen like 3. 4 if i include my own #& they were all just concepts & drabbles!!! please i'm begging #Danny Phantom #maybe i will finish & post Black Dog as it is. maybe i'll wake up early one day take my adhd meds & just bang the rest out #it's been sitting around since like 2017 omg. i need to post this shit asap #it's over 60k btw. this shit is a novel #i'm even writing an original series based on it like this shit is one of my biggest projects. this shit is FOtPoD level #i NEED more i can't be the only one

[jovial-gender-jester]

if there's anything i care about more than magical girls, it's magical women

#txt.mine #thinking about how much i love the niche cuz adult lifestyles have such a fun variety of moments to start a story with #and i feel like the balance of agency through life & work & purpose & desire can get skewed in suchh a good way #like. maybe some characters are unemployed or stuck in a dead-end job or unsustainable passion-project. maybe everyone's in the same career #it's just so fun to see ensembles with conflicting life-styles and watch how it goes when these people finally have a moment to talk again #or there's roommates who got scouted off the street then have to balance deeply contemporary problems and a patron who's passionate but also #needs proxies for material change [fighting monsters of the week] #anyway. im so sleepy #to the stories i am thinking of [magical girl friendship squad {youtube series}] [heaven will be mine {pc visual novel}] [life after magic #{pc visual novel. disclaimer that i havent finished lam yet; tho i started it on a whim & it's Pretty charming so far}] #i need to talk about these stories more. god i love when women are complicated & stuck in a strained community

Life is so cruel because Kino no Tabi is so good but I can’t even recommend the books to anyone because only the first volume was ever translated and it’s been out of print for presumably over a decade. Plus part of what makes it so good are untranslatable (into English) qualities of the Japanese language such as the general avoidance of gendering Kino. What other book has a motorcycle get into an argument with a dog

#apparently the theory is that the jp publishers got mad that the English publishers changed the chapter order #which tbh I understand I really do #honestly I hate it when kino’s backstory is presented first because it doesn’t allow you to form your own opinions on them beforehand #kino no Tabi #kino’s journey #taking matters into my own hands and translating it myself to put online for all to read #I mean hey that’s what happened with no. 6 right #I still can’t believe that one never got licensed in English #like it definitely had the popularity back when the anime came out #and the manga is fully translated #why not the novels #I still need to read them though that’s gonna be my summer project #kino no Tabi rewired my brain I’ve never felt so capable of reading in Japanese before #I mean sometimes it still kicks my ass but in general I’m having a reasonable time with it language wise

You guys. YOU GUYS.

(sorry, I know by Tumblr lingo girlies is the new guys, but I was born in the 80s and old habits die hard)

I uploaded the NEW AND FULLY EDITED edition of Magic Most Deadly to IngramSpark five minutes ago. Just waiting on the proofs, digital and physical, now.

I'm not sure whether to order champagne or weep a little. Probably neither, since I don't like champagne and I have too many other things to do to weep.

But still. It's SO close to being ready!

I can't quite believe it.

We might actually make that November 1 deadline after all.

#the great magic most deadly rewrite #yes I have neglected my schoolwork a tiny bit to get this done #but it will be fine #I'll just need to catch up later in the week #I needed this done NOW #not only because of my deadline #but because I'm also on an editing deadline for a client #this is done so now I can work on her project with a clear conscience #and school will work itself out somehow #it always does #but I am never releasing a novel in the middle of the semester again
