Permanent inbox call! If you like the idea of me and Kafka sending you entirely unprompted things at absolute random, then give this post a little ♡  I don't always enjoy sticking to sending things only from reblogged meme lists, and often I get urges to send things when nothing has been reblogged at all. This little permanent inbox call touches on fixing those things, and it means that miss ma'am over here and I can just wrecking ball our way into your askbox whenever our little hearts see fit, with whatever idea we may have in the moment.
Don't worry, none of this is tied to any obligation nor expectation. If anything ever gets sent your way that you're not feeling like responding to, you can simply delete it without any ill-will or demotivation from my end whatsoever. You're also under zero obligation to return the courtesy of this gesture! It's all in good fun and community interaction.

Starter call! Yep, you saw correctly. I've been making progress in my drafts, and I realized since it was mentioned the other day that I function a little better under pressure, so, yes.
These will be a little shorter (and I'm going to be a little strict with myself on that so that I actually get them written), so expect roughly a paragraph and if it stems from an idea that we've spoken about in plotting or whatnot, then it might be a little longer. But generally, they will be shorter starters that knowing me, will become lengthier threads as the replies progress! This is also welcome to non-Genshin blogs, but then please remember that I do not have any verses outside of Yelan's game canon, and so I'll be looking at your Genshin verses!

Easter lunch at my aunt's (aka delicious food: every time I realize I should marry a chef) for a few hours and then I'll be around! <3

Little 'PSA' time. Please know that even in case you see me actively writing and posting here, and you haven't gotten a response from me in DMs yet (both in Discord and on Tumblr), that it's not disinterest, and I will get to things eventually. On top of not being able to be social everywhere all the time, life is also getting increasingly demanding on some days (my landlord has kindly given notice that she'd like to move back into this apartment she's been renting to me, so a hefty move is in my very near future), and all I want to do is drown in the world of Teyvat. Now that I've finally used my stubborn brain to lasso my motivation to write back from the war, I want to actually keep trying to indulge in it daily, because I've been having fun, and the amount of engagement I've gotten has only added to that. So bear with me a bit, while I'm not shy by any means, I'm just not always the most social of beans, on top of wanting to focus my time on writing a bit more.
Have a wonderful end of your weekend, ladies and gents!

I'm so cold, I'm going to play through some more Penacony beyond the reception area. It's time.

My apologies for the absence! I feel like a broken record saying this, but I keep entering different phases of 'settling into life' (went through a massive change in my personal life last year), and then every time I get to 'Ah, all is calm now', something else happens. But I'm finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel, as one huge weight has now finally been lifted off my shoulders. Phew. /munches on my camembert and baguette.

Me staring at test results: It makes so much sense for her, but if I don't specify or elaborate, then we end up with the fanon take. Ugh, how do I easily explain that if you look at the word 'sex' through a much more old-fashioned lens instead of the modern one, that you'll get a vastly different picture of it?

The end of coding is in sight, I'll just be live updating it a lot once I put it up. I just need this done. I just need this done, I crave to write.
On that note, I kinda wanted to ask to those currently around — even if we've yet to properly interact and the ones who I've already established it with (or am reciprocating it for). Little mains call? (Simply comment!) If we haven't interacted yet, it simply means I may prioritize your starters/asks a bit more, see how we feel/do and then see! I'm simply adding a mains page, so this would be a decent time to ask, no?

I'm unsure how many of you are awake, but for those who are... please help, I can't decide. 😭 I've been staring at these two versions in Photoshop for an age and a half. And part of me prefers the first one, but I also feel like it's too busy with the dice on the left. Am I overthinking it because I've been staring since forever? Possibly. But let's see if it's just me. Do you prefer the first or second one?

We don't look at me, we don't perceive me, we don't ask questions about why this is happening right now, we simply— accept it. But Guizhong is returning and will run on low activity, alongside Yelan who will have most of my focus still. I'll be a little picky on her (her resurrection verse will also still be around) and I will resume any threads people may still be interested in writing. So if you see a little lord of dust appear in your following list (again), know it's just little 'ole me.

My bakery that's at 2 minutes away from my apartment said it was open the last three (realistically, it's probably two) times I went to go look over the last few days, but it was closed. It again says it's open now until 8PM as it always says— question is, do I venture down to see if it actually is so that I can grab a baguette?
I know the answer should be an easy 'yes Sae, because it's so close by', let me give you context: I still have a bruised as heck foot (primarily by my little toe) and I need to go down five flights of stairs because my building has no elevator. Is it still an easy yes?

I just wanted to note that it's finally come about: tomorrow (the 28th) is my official moving day, and I'll be temporarily staying with some relatives of mine (and I'm rather excited about it, as it'll put a ton of my stress of the last months to rest). Any way, this means that despite some possible activity from me on today, I'll be relatively quiet on Tumblr until I'm properly settled in later in the day on Sunday (when I've transported and hooked up my desktop and all of that). So if there's some silence like there was yesterday, it's simply me ensuring that everything is packed and moved over properly! Once settled however, I don't anticipate a big difference in my activity-levels, since as much as I'll be a bit social around food-times, I'm very based around my PC even for work. So I think that you'll see me around as per usual!

Me finishes the new mobile banner, uploaded it and accidentally came across an old WIP theme from last year that has draggable windows so it'll work for all resolutions across the board. So guess what I'm doing.

So sometimes, I note that I'm here and then life happens and then I end up not being here for a bit (5/6 hours) longer in typical Sae fashion. Aka: business as usual, at least for a bit longer. I still want to get to the reply I teased almost 12 hours ago, and the things you guys sent in for the HC prompt. So, let me make my tea, and get cracking.
