Magandang gabi o umaga sa iyong lahat! Susubukan kong magsulat nang Tagalog ngayong araw para sa QSMP language day!! Kahit medyo mahirap na magsalita ng Tagalog buong araw, kasi lumaki na ako sa Canada na nagsasalita ng English, susubukan ko na hinding magsalita ng English ngayon. Kahit medyo mahirap nga, masaya pa rin akong magsalita at magsulat ng Tagalog, hindi lang para sa kapwang pinoy ko sa qsmpblr, pero para din sa mga tao na gustong matuto ng Tagalog at iba pang bagay sa culturang pinoy.
Pasenya nga lang kasi hindi maganda yung sulat ko sa Tagalog kasi mahirap ang Filipino grammar at spelling para sa kin 😭
Pero sana, sapat na yung konting Tagalog na alam ko para medyo maintindihan nyo pa rin ang sinsabi ko 0_0
Para sa mga ibang Pinoy na nandito: Mabuhay kababayan!!!! ✨✨✨
FINALLY after years of silence our Philippines-set game Until Then has a demo up on Steam now!!!
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1574820
If you check the steam page out you can see our team talk about inspirations and tidbits about the game (I'm there too talking as the lead environment artist, hi mom 😭) I think its' fair to say that this is a pretty historic moment for SEAgaming and PH with gaming in general.
You can check the announcement trailer here on Playstation <3
this is like a sadgirl pathetic post but this guy i met recently at work was like, very direct and polite in being interested in me and i've been feeling him out bc i literally do not know him well enough to have an opinion but i can't like. he is so normal and nice. hes like a nice normal guy. every time i text him he doesn't say anything weird and he's extremely nice. what the hell. he's literally so nice. WHY. does he like. me???? like what's wrong with him that he specifically is interested in me????
This literally made me so inspired to actually do things quicker today tysm 😭😭‼️ and yay damien smiling :3
-Damien has green eyes, when hes using his powers n stuff his eyes turn into a dark green and like the fire eye thing
-Damien absolutely loves listening to old filipino love songs,, but he doesnt let people know that, except for one time where Damien was blasting the song on radio and Pip just walked in onto him singing along (Pip coudlnt understand what the song was saying but he just knew it sounded like a love song) and Damien hasnt recovered from it ever since
-He thinks the normal shower water is too cold, he always takes hot showers
-Damien has a squeaky voice when he speaks in english, but when he talks in filipino he sounds so different,, Pip heard him once and was completely dumbfounded at it
-Damien has a habit of blowing the candles of someone elses birthday cake just to piss them off
-He has like a huge collection of movies, like he has CDs, DVDs, Video tapes, you name it and he'll have like a whole room of them
-When Damiens bored he'll just light up anything on fire and just watch it burn into ashes.
-Damien will always put his feet up whenever he sits down, if someone tells him to sit properly he would make his posture even worse
-Damien has troubles with expressing his emotions, he doesnt usually cry, but when he does its gonna hurt real hard
-Damien gets easily flustered (like the smallest compliment makes him smile)
-If Damien has trouble sleeping, he would go outside for a midnight stroll, he likes how dark and quiet it is at night
(I think he would like this song https://youtu.be/NAdoyLFB89g totally not gonna imply dip heeheehee)
there is only one thing in this world I trust will never change and that is Celine (along with Whitney, Mariah and Beyonce) always being a hit in every Filipino household no matter the generation 😌
my biggest fear is that ppl secretly think im a koreaboo bc my online alias is nari when i actually thought of that name during my wattpad days when i put together 4 random letters from my middle and last name and i thought it was this cute nickname i came up with and then i found out it’s a korean name but now i’m too in deep to change it🙁
*gently places star in hands* 🌟 I wanna hear more of your commentary on the sirena fic 👀
*gently pats your head* Thank you and I love you 🥺🤍
In Where the Spirit Meets the Bones, Namor was originally supposed to be paranoid when he first saw the jasmine flowers on the seashore. He wanted to track down the origin of the flowers and was paranoid that someone had followed him and could compromise the secrecy of Talokan. Based on this, he was prepared to see them as a threat and take them down if they were an enemy. However, I didn't go along with this idea because it didn't fit with the tone of the scene. He was there to visit his mother. If I had gone that route, then the fic would have had more of an Enemies-to-Lovers trope, which wasn't what I wanted this fic to be. I wanted the fic to have more of a fairytale vibe.
The original song that the Sirena was supposed to sing to Namor was O'Jo Kaluguran Daka, but I ldid not like it. The song felt too karaoke/Magic Sing to me and didn't fit the tone of the fic, but it was the only Kapampangan song I could find. But one night I stayed up late writing and kept looking for Kapampangan love songs when I finally found the one, Bulan by Edward Bernabe. I was ecstatic when I found Bulan! It fit perfectly with my fic and it's definitely a love song from our Sirena to Namor.
I had a lot of fun writing the ending. Not to be an ✨Aquarius✨ in wanting to be unique and different, but I've seen a few fics where Namor uses his siren song to enchant the reader. I wanted to turn the tables a bit and have him smitten with your siren song and be captivated by you.
The last line of the fic was originally going to be: "Only the bright full moon bears witness to the reunion of the feathered serpent king and his sirena disappearing into the sea." However, i changed it to "Only the bright full moon bears witness to the reunion of the sirena and her feathered serpent king disappearing into the sea." It was inspired by one of my favorite pieces of classical literature, Jane Eyre, where she says "Reader, I married him." As the audience, we already know Namor is loyal and dedicated (and sometimes dark and a little possessive). Even tho this part of the fic was in his POV, I changed it to her feathered serpent king to indicate and foreshadow that again, while the reader is sweet, she is not as sweet as Namor thinks her to be. She is just as dark and possessive of him as he is of her, foreshadowing her backstory that will soon be revealed in part 2!
