The latest chapter was so good! I have no words asdfghjkl the letters, Shadow’s strong reactions, Amy’s new family. All of it was just amazing🥲🫶
GAH, that's so kind. When I tell you that this chapter and I were beefing... Man, I fought hard for this one. Pulled it together in the minutes I had between meetings, and really had to do some puzzling out to get all the moments to work. So it makes me so thankful that you left this message and that people have loved this one! There's a lot of work I'm proud of in this chapter - Shadow and his dramatic dialogue, Amy's letter, I even LOVE the little Knux and Rouge banter, Rouge's bits of wisdom, and the Tails and Amy moments. I don't know why, but when I write Tails and Amy it just devolves into tenderness. They are such a sweet pair. Someone draw me that cheek kiss, it's just so cute!!!
For real though, thank you. To know that the hard chapters are still beloved makes the work feel so rewarding. The support is insanely touching and so, so special!!!
*flips hair* *catches dreamcatcher and falls in love with it instantly*
Let's play a game! It's called pretending that I am answering this on time.
*screeches*
If it's any comfort I am pretty close to being done with the second draft, which means final editing and then I can publish.
Also when I say close to being done I mean a gut feeling. Everything is just starting to come together. I will reach the 90k word limit by around 8 more chapters which means around 100k by the time I reach chapter 40 and most sci fi books end by that word limit.
But apart from the maths...I just feel like it's about to end (Don't trust me I have not planned anything between the current event am writing and the end of the book. Just making shit up as I go)
I'm very shy and sending ask to people is difficult, but i just wanted to say that your art gives me life everytime i see it, the art style gives me comfort, it's so cute and beautiful aaaa, I want to put all of them in a box and cherish it forever 🥺❤️
STOPPP😭🖤 ok but you telling me that considering that I really admire you art wow WOW
I'm only just recently truly appreciating just how good your Superman/batman(/sometimes wonder woman) fics are !!!
I love them so damn much
Hope life is treating you well 🥰
I...you...what...thats...so nice??? Thank you so much. Seriously. I've been feeling really indifferent about my writing lately, so this really means a lot to me. Thank you so much!!
I’m actually LOVING how Rick Riordan, and the other writers of the show, took his initial concept of a Percabeth rivalry fueled by that of their parents and kind of turned it on its head?
Now, instead of Annabeth being wary of Percy because he’s a son of Poseidon, he’s wary of her because she made a callous impression on him. They get off to a rocky start even before finding out who Percy’s father is, and when they finally do, Annabeth doesn’t care. Instead of them fighting because of who their parents are, they’re fighting over their own opposed worldviews.
Then, instead of them arguing over which of the gods is cooler and who was right in the story of Medusa, they realize that, just like Medusa, Annabeth is a victim of her mother and that, unlike Medusa, she is a far kinder and stronger person, unwilling to repeat the cycle of hurt. They realize that, like his father, Percy often acts without considering potential consequences and that, unlike his father, he is a far kinder and stronger person, willing to step up for someone he wronged and whom he cares about.
Instead of Percy and Annabeth’s rivalry being focused on that of their parents, it’s focused on who they are, themselves. But the path to friendship is still the same: a realization that they have each other’s backs, no matter what, because they’re not their parents after all.
the way that one line from the new epilogue in an astarion romance is going to HAUNT me
just. what a profoundly intense thing to confess to someone.
like, just these six months of newfound happiness with you exerts a force on his heart equal and in direct opposition to two centuries of endless torment, the gnawing hunger and exploitation. this flashbulb-bright fraction of his long life holds the same gravity to him as years upon years of darkness and suffering.
in all likelihood, he hasn’t even known his lover for as long as his worst memory lasted, that year sealed away to go mad from starvation and sensory deprivation, yet he still tells them this brief time has been so fundamentally and powerfully important that the weight of even that unimaginable hell is vanishingly small compared to this present he has now and the future ahead of them both.
god like. the funniest thing about adaine abernant to me is that she is sooooo petty. she is so deeply capable of being a mean bitch. she used to be chronically anxious but she’s medicated now and that was the only thing holding her back from being born a hater and dying a hater. she loves her friends and the supportive environment that her new family gives her but this is also the same character who at fifteen years old (deservedly) told an incel he sucked multiple times over to his face and sent her sister who sucks to elf prison
