dating younger quackity? like 2018-2019
.✦°. • Dating younger Quackity ( ´∀`)
warnings: none^^
a/n: thank u so much for the request! This was super fun to write, took me back to 2019 when I started watching him :D either way hope you enjoy! (Sorry it took so long 😭 life’s been busy)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I feel like he’d be the type to fall in love with his best friend, or generally someone that he knows fairly well
Expect nights spent talking on the phone with him, laughing your asses off at memes and stupid games instead of doing homework
Or endless bike rides around the city, as if you didn’t do that one route million of times
Maybe even little lessons on the basics of boxing (he isn’t a very good teacher though, he’s too afraid to hurt you)
It comes naturally, his heartbeat starts to pick up every time he hears your voice, your laugh, you saying his name ugh
And you won’t stop leaving his mind, you’re always there, in every each one of his thoughts (might as well pay rent at this point)
Have you always sound this pretty?
Have you always been this pretty?
Before he knows it, he’s noticing all the little details that make you, well, YOU
He’s in love.
Fuck.
He wouldn’t know what to do about his feelings, either he ignores them and buries this secret deep into his heart, or, after a scary amount of convincing from his friends, he confronts you with the shyest demeanor you’ve ever seen him wear
Assuming this is one of his first experiences, if not the first, he would be very cautious in his actions, not sure yet about how to handle a relationship, especially if it gets more serious
He wouldn’t talk about being in a romantic relationship for a while, mostly cause he doesn’t like to share his personal life too much, especially when it comes to romance
But is there a teenage boy that doesn’t like to brag about being in a relationship?
Would mention it once, casually, you know, to be cool and all
Like “yeah I have a partner” a little smile to top it off, nothing big, just a bit of something to feel swag
Nobody believed him.
The loud boy who screamed about the president 24/7 having a partner? Yeah nice try kiddo, go back to play your stupid videogames
At some point in his young carrier he got tired about the running joke of you being an illusion
“This is what too much screen time does to a person KEKW” chat would say, haha how funny (if you hadn’t notice, he’s being sarcastic)
As frustrating as it was to battle against hundreds of people on whether HE was in a relationship or not, he’d never ask you to do anything you are uncomfortable in doing
So, even if showing up on stream would probably help with this little problem of his, he’d encourage you to actually think carefully if you want to make an appearance or not
“I do have a partner!” Alex says for what feels like the fiftieth time that evening. He should probably give up, after all who cares if chat doesn’t believe him. He knows the truth and that’s enough. Right?
WRONG.
His credibility, and his pride, are in the way. Plus is he even that bad of a catch for people to think he can’t pull?
His head falls onto his hand, resting there as he lets his thoughts run while the fast stream chat on his monitor lights up his face in various dull colors.
You were sitting on a little chair, not too far away from him, staring at something in your phone. He did feel bad for inviting you over just for him to stream an hour later, but you had always said that you didn’t mind watching him since you liked seeing him do something he enjoyed. As if he didn’t enjoy spending time with you, but fine.
So he put his insecurities aside, most of them being about you possibly not liking his streams, and provided you a chair to at least sit comfortably as he robbed you of your time by going live yet again.
It had been going fairly well: he was checking out some horrible games in Roblox, or rather he had been screaming his lungs out for an hour straight, and of course, when a random kid on Roblox asked him to be his girlfriend, chat got back on their “no relationship, you are a loser” (he knows it’s a long name, he couldn’t come up with anything better okay??) agenda.
Your hand waving in his peripheral vision brought him back from his mind: he hadn’t realized he had zoned out.
He looked at you briefly, almost feeling bad for the worried stare you were giving him. He usually doesn’t feel this defeated after an unserious bickering with chat, but to say that this all situation wasn’t playing with his self-doubts would be lying. He’s fine though, he just feels a little gloomy today.
You turn your head to the side and give him a thumps up, voicelessly asking whether he was fine or not. And he just nods, giving you a little, forced, smile before going back to the bright monitor. He doesn’t like the thought of you being concerned about this. While, admittedly, it does feel nice to have someone worried about him, Alex never quite liked to be a bother to anyone. He could handle this alone.
Then why is his head so heavy? And why does he feel without energy all of a sudden? He just needs to do what he does best: push the pain away and walk forward. But even something as easy as that sounds impossible right now.
Maybe he should end stream.
He’s too lost in his own thoughts to realize you had stood from your chair, steadily approaching his setup. When he realizes what’s going on, it’s too late.
“You don’t-“ before the frantic words can leave his mouth, you were already behind him. You cross your arms down his chest, whilst your head, resting on the top of his beanie, being high enough to not get seen by the webcam.
Many things were going trough Alex’s mind, a lot of them being about how nice it felt being hold by you, but only two words left his lips:
“Who’s got no game now, huh?”.
At that point it would go from chat not believing him to chat teasing him endlessly about him being a simp
You two could do nothing and he would still be accused of it, just because you were there
Is it true? Yeah, but it was nonetheless a bit annoying
He WOULD bully you on stream when the secret is out
Chat: “do you like (Name) or Thanos more? Don’t lie”
“Well…” he’d say, scratching his neck in faux uneasiness.
“Don’t think about it what the fuck!”.
His chat took your relationship quite well, after all the time he wasn’t famous enough to have fans being jealous and obsessing over him
Actually you became kind of an icon of his channel
And he did milk this for content but it’s not like you didn’t encourage him, quite the contrary, so expect videos like “playing Roblox with my partner” or “The best Habbo raid ever w/(Name)”
As sweet as this all can be, we haven’t forgot about his light teasing (borderline bullying) on stream, have we?
Don’t worry, you got back at him with the help of Aksel countless of time, he’d be your partner in crime when it came to bullying Alex
You were watching meme compilations with them on stream, occasionally sharing some little laughs and snarky comments, and, one way or another, you somehow ended up talking about shampoos. Yes, shampoos.
“Honestly, I think 2 in 1 are gross” Alex says, spinning around in his chair while still keeping an eye on the running chat. You were sitting next to him in your usual simple wooden chair that he usually stole from his kitchen. It wasn’t much, and you could feel your thighs getting painted with the hard design of your seat, but it feels very homy, heart warming in its simplicity.
Yet, as comfortable and happy as you felt, you really couldn’t help spatting out the comment that had been dancing dangerously on the tip of your tongue, begging to be freed.
“And what would you know about it you bald fuck”.
Silence filled the room.
.
.
.
You start to grow worried you stepped over the line as you shoot guilty side-glances at him, trying to evaluate whether he was or wasn’t okay with your stupid joke. His spinning was getting gradually slower, and his eyes wide and open jaw came to view.
You’re able to let out a silent sigh of relief as Alex’s face sinks into a, clearly exaggerated, offended pout.
“Have you heard them?? Defend me Aksel what the hell” he cries dramatically, his mindless spinning coming at a halt to stare into the soul of his screen, specifically at the man that is lightly grinning right back at him.
“I mean.. they’re kinda right man..” he mutters in his typical monotone voice, barely holding back an amused snicker.
Alex’s look of betrayal was probably the funniest shit you had seen in a while.
“Why are you two ganging up on a Mexican guy huh??”
“Awww the Mexican card? No better come back??” you laugh smugly, your face screaming “triumph” as he gawks at you.
“You truly found your match” Aksel laughs, adjusting his bucket hat as he leaned down on his office chair.
“Shut the fuck up” he mumbles before looking away from you with a huff.
Oh God does he love you.
Moving on though, these were harsh years for him, so he needs lots of love and support from his partner
I think it’d be too soon to have full on cuddling sessions, but i see him loving your touch, especially if it’s something domestic like a simple hug or a little caress down his back
Not really into PDA either, but he would find comfort in holding your hand whenever he’s tense or even just cold
It’s a reminder you are still by his side despite all of his flaws and insecurities, you chose him
(Ended up being way longer than I intended but had fun :D sorry for the long wait :( I had two very stressing weeks in the middle of writing this)

What are your thoughts on C!Wilbur now? Anything changed?
I’m asking for reference because I’m honestly having a hard time figuring out what to think. I was never really attached to ccWilbur in the first place and what he did was absolutely shit so the decision to stop supporting him wasn’t hard. But dear lord the character he played was so well-crafted(again I don’t support him at all). I just really don’t know where to draw the line between the story and the writer, if that should influence my admiration for this really well-crafted character or if me still liking c!Wilbur counts as support to the creator.
Thoughts?
(sub question: how is this gonna affect how you write the c! character in the future, if you write him at all?)
Support Shubble!🫶
Heads up, probably gonna get a bit long and ramble-y here, I haven't really gotten to think or talk about this much yet.
I'm still not entirely sure where I stand with c!Wilbur at this point in time- because on the one hand, whenever I see a drawing of Wilbur with a white streak in his hair I go "Ah, c!Wilbur" and don't feel particularly strongly about it. While the character and the streamer are unequivocally linked and I'd rather avoid writing about c!Wilbur in the future, they're still not the same person in my mind.
Yeah, I mean, I liked cc!Wilbur well enough before all of this- but my primary reason for watching him was definitely Tommy (didn't really watch many of his streams if Tommy wasn't also there kekw). I consider myself rather fortunate in that I've already gone through getting a little too dependent on a streamer for comfort who then turned out to be a really shitty person ages ago, so now I'm much more careful to keep a stronger degree of separation. No parasocial relationships here, thank you very much. Been there, done that.
I think the only person I would genuinely have some level of difficulty with dropping at this point is Tommy. Ooh, big shocker coming from the person who writes almost exclusively Tommyinnit-centric things, I know.
But yeah, back to Wilbur-- regarding c!Wilbur in fanfics, I unfortunately can't just remove the influence he's had over c!Tommy- just like I can't remove the impact c!Dream's had on c!Tommy's life. I also can't change c!Tommy's perspective of c!Wilbur, so at least regarding TomTurtles, Tommy's still going to mention Wilbur, and he's still going going to think of him his older brother and someone that he cares about.
However, as the writer, I will be far less merciful in how he's portrayed, regardless of c!Tommy's biased perspective (c!Wilbur isn't going to show up- that was never in the cards outside of a now scrapped idea for a non-canon fic in the series where c!Wilbur has actually been living in the same America as Tom and the turtles and they find each other again)
After I'm done writing the crossover series though, I don't think I'll be including him in anything else. Which is a shame only because it means I can't use c!Tommy.
Sure, most of my portrayals of Tommy will probably still draw heavily from c!Tommy but I probably won't be able to take him straight from dsmp anymore.
Upside to scrapping all of my ideas that included Wilbur- I can completely replace him with Technoblade AKA, more bedrock bros content \o/ (That being said, most of my fic ideas at this point in time are just various AUs getting Tommy to interact with the cast of rottmnt ahaha-)
All that is to say: While I ultimately view c!Wilbur and cc!WIlbur as different, the second I've finished writing this series, he will most likely never be mentioned or shown again in any of my fics after that. Might as well give any roles he might've played to someone more deserving.
And support Shubble, I'm so incredibly grateful that she decided to speak up about all this.
Thank you for the ask, I hope you have a nice rest of your night/day.

I have to say I'm deeply fascinated by the person on Hoyolab that made a post ranting about how they tried Wriothesley, Furina, Charlotte and Kazuha in the current event and mentioned as one of their first complaints how Furina's hydro application is apparently terrible. Which. Is not true at all?
So I commented telling them that, actually, I've been using Furina alongside Wriothesley since I got her and how that basically amounts to permafreeze, so in essence I can absolutely say that they're incorrect. To which they genuinely answered something along the lines of:
"Yeah, you're obviously using her skill."
Which was baffling to say the least because. Duh. And it just makes me wonder...how...did they attempt to apply hydro with her?
Of course I questioned that by saying (roughly):
"So what you're saying is that you attempted to use her ult for hydro application, which is not meant to be used like that, and then complain that her application is bad while simultanously ignoring the main component of her kit?" (it was very differently worded and longer but that's the gist of it lol)
And when I checked Hoyolab this morning they just. Straight up deleted my comment lmao.
Like listen I'm very aware that Hoyolab is a cesspool of children and people who straight up act like children, which is why I'm mostly just there for the check in and events and such, but that was new to me regardless. Their post is still up btw kekw

A more direct EN translation of some of Alhaitham’s voice lines in CN
(Note that in order to show the meaning in CN more clearly, some translations might not sound as smooth as the official EN text to stay closer to the CN.)
tl;dr: dude is in general more of a piece of shit in CN (no) LOL
i love he
Tumblr media Tumblr media
About the Vision
To be honest, a Dendro Vision isn’t of much help to my research. But I do hit people harder now that I have elemental powers, so it's still useful enough.
[Personal opinion: I really wish the translators had kept his cruder/rougher wording in CN here, instead of making him sound kinda formal with the “settling a physical dispute” “proves useful at times” and all. (There are other lines, including some during the archon quest, where I’ve noticed that the EN translators made him sound more “formal” like this.) Despite the strong “rational/logical” image that he has, in CN Alhaitham rarely uses the kind of “academic” or “smart”-sounding language that one might think he does unless the occasion calls for it, and I find that aspect of his character really charming. Like Alhaitham says himself, “Rather than lacing my words with rhetoric, I prefer speaking factually” – I love hearing his lines because this guy is so good at making sharp, concise comments using his iconic crude and down-to-earth language. The writers really did a fantastic job portraying this smart and badass and hilarious character while intentionally (imo) breaking the stereotype in the use of an “academic” tone.]
Tumblr media Tumblr media
About Us: Helping Each Other
You are very capable of taking care of yourself, so much so that you can even look after the companions around you. I don’t have any advice for you, and you most likely don’t need my help.
[Unlike in EN, it’s not very obvious that he is specifically referring to Paimon there in CN. It’s also a general trend that he is more curt/direct in CN, not hedging his statements as much with words like “seem” “frankly” “tend to” etc..]
Tumblr media Tumblr media
About Kaveh: Compassion
He shows too much compassion towards everyone and everything. Probably because he is too fragile, he’s always making a fuss over nothing.
[The word choice in CN is more positive. At least “关怀” is a positive word – more along the lines of “compassion/care” – while “sensitive” is a neutral word that could be understood in either way, and probably negative in the context of “overly sensitive”. While Alhaitham is arguably also using some sarcasm in CN, I still think “sensitive” is neither an intuitive nor a fitting translation for 关怀.]
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Birthday
Happy birthday. I’ve always thought that people invest an unnecessary amount of enthusiasm into celebrating the day they were born; it’d be more practical to channel that energy into getting more joy out of each day of their lives. You’re doing an alright job with this. I don’t know what kind of gift to get, so I’ll just reserve one pass for you through a special application channel.
[Funnily enough, he is less nice to you on your birthday in CN lol… I appreciate the sheer objectivity in “alright job”, bro Especially the “gift” he prepared for you, in my understanding, the special channel is only effective for once in CN and not permanent as the EN version seems to suggest, LMAO. Alhaitham, you just really don’t want to put extra effort into this huh Idk, maybe the EN translators just wanted to make him sound nicer to the players 😆 I can appreciate it either way though.]
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Opening Treasure Chest: I
Hold on to them yourself.
[Aka: I don’t need this stuff. How nice of him.]
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Opening Treasure Chest: II
Hurry, it’ll be hard to pick them up once they roll away.
[But he’s also genuinely being such a good (and fourth-wall-breaking-ly helpful) teammate kekw]
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Joining Party: II
Let’s do business the business way. / Let’s keep things straight business.
[OK, if all the other discrepancies in translation are mostly just me being nitpicky, this one, I would argue, is a significant mistranslation that almost gets the opposite meaning across. “Let’s get down to business,” in my opinion, makes it sound like Alhaitham feels the need and is potentially quite willing to join the party, while in CN, “公事公办” is an idiom that clearly conveys the meaning that Alhaitham is Not joining you because he wants to/thinks he needs to but rather he’s treating it as Business, as a Job. In JP this line is straight up translated it as “公務に私情は挟まない” – “no personal feelings involved in official business.” In fact, linguistic elegance/cultural factors aside, I feel like for Alhaitham’s voice lines at least, the JP translation in general stays much closer to the CN text compared to EN. Like I mentioned in my last CN/EN comparison post, some EN translations make Alhaitham sound like a leader, while a big part of this dude’s life is just rejecting any and all leadership responsibilities thrown his way.]
---
Some additional translations FYI
Tumblr media Tumblr media
More About Alhaitham: IV
Once order is disrupted, the consequences will spread rapidly. I don’t like this; it will get in the way of the life I have right now.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Feelings About Ascension: Conclusion
Can’t let those slackers from the Akademiya know that I’m making progress yet again, otherwise they’ll do everything in their ability to push trouble my way. Of course I won’t accept any of it, but the back-and-forth in communication is always going to waste some (of my) time.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Low HP: III
This will take up more (of my) time.

at least one point every day i feel negatively about my art because y'know. Perpetual Artist Disease no matter how happy u usually are with ur work KEKW but going thru just a single tag or seeing like. one person who liked my art every day makes it so worth it
this isnt an urging of ppl to Do More bc the support u guys give me is so much more than enough :) im just feelin appreciative bcos today im hittin my first art block since i came back but it doesnt feel Bad or like a failure it just feels like. ' oh well !!! ill get art to ppl soon, i hope they enjoy it :) itll be worth it' and i have the suspicion that rather than being a 2 week rut like i usually get its just gonna be a single sleepy day LMAO
the reception to my art has been fucking incredible. ppl participating in a dtiys more than they ever did in my years in the furry fandom? meeting so many new ppl and sharing amazing ideas with them every day?? getting so many wonderful suggestions that spark inspo into me whenever im feeling uncreative?? fukcing EDITS on tiktok being made of my art which has never happened before and made me make real life noises of joy when i was told about them?? gah DAMN just. happy moments thank u guys :)

Alright, a0 is the federation base(that's the word?) But yeah, the feathers probaly have something to do with the avians because is much of a coincidence that Jaiden and Baghera got wings very recently and Cellbit got a puzzle about feathers at the same time But yeah, to this day we still haven't get lore of that thing on Felps' arm Perhaps some sort of sleeper agent? Like, but like, unconciosly?(I don't know how to write that and I too lazy to look) or maybe it's from an experiment? Back then people were considering the chance of him turning into a cucurucho Also, I think Cellbit might not be Bagi's brother, but is funny on how people just look at them say: "yeah, sibling" But would be funny if it was the most random person in this island and everyone is like "HOW??"
And Cellbit stopped solving the enigma and now is ranking cartoons He spend way too long on that thing LOL About the gods hc, do you have any hc about them?
-Plate anon, who one day will ascend to the land of emojis
Philza also has wings!! no model but he was telling his chat yesterday that they’re behind his backpack/tucked away and the federation clipped them. he had to wear a backpack otherwise he’ll lose balance because he’s so use to the extra weight of his full wings :((
i’ve seen almost everyone be a candidate to being bagi’s brother MKAMHIVINAKMA i think it makes the most sense for it to be cellbit BUT if it was someone else entirely random like Foolish i’d still love it. id laugh very hard at it
OOOH GOD HEADCANONS YOU SAY?? >:3c
Tommyinnit is a deity that phil, wilbur and tubbo all know about (tommy has been in tubbos stream before being shown around tubbos new qsmp base + another time he was on call with philza and wilbur when they were playing qsmp)
To me he’s a silly little chaos and life deity. he’s busy a lot of the time but he does make sure to look out for his family and see what they’re up too at times :))
I really like the idea that all the gods/goddesses know each other lamknfkns
like imagine Mumza (Philza’s wife), Forever’s partner and Missa’s partner all talkign to each other about their silly partners in the server
like Kari apologizing for Forever behavior with Philza but Mumza just laughs because she thinks it’s funny and cry ally encourages it
Missa’s partner has to watch him try and water bucket clutch and utterly fail at least three times a day
OOOOH MINE!! HOW COUDL I FORGET HER!! i think she’s a goddess of creativity? i don’t remember what specifically but i know she crochets a lot
she and slime’s gf crochet together while taking about their partners who are both brothers!! they didn’t know before but now they do so they try and get along together :DD
slime’s gf actually makes her own yarn and gardens a lot so i think she’s make very special yarn and stuff for Mine :))
oh i really like Lore blessing Richas to be her cupid which is why all the ships he like usually work (biggest example being q!guapoduo kekw)

I’m allergic to anon. Some of this will be similar to a different meme that was on the previous blog, so it's time to basically have it documented on this blog. To begin with, I started following you because you found me first and I saw KHR, so that was an insta-follow on my part. I stick around because I genuinely enjoy interacting with you and I adore the way you portray your muses. I can only really speak on the behalf of the KHR muses and say that you write them all well or put a lot of thought into them to make them feel fleshed out. It makes them very fun and engaging. I technically do know of other muses from the other fandoms, but not that well for me to speak on em. All in all, I follow you because I like to read the things you write, but I mostly simply enjoy speaking with you on discord and the like. As an extra note, I've always been a fan of Gokudera, but interacting with you made me love him a lot more, which is saying something bc I really like him for personal sentimental reasons kekw, so it's impressive to get me to love a character more via portrayal.
Tumblr media
Please tell me anonymously or not why you follow me. I could use some positive messages- no longer accepting!
Tumblr media
Whiskey.exe has stopped functioning.
.Whiskey.
Joking aside. Thank you so much, Neo. As I mentioned on discord, I knew Gokudera was a fave of yours but I never realized my portrayal made you love him more. That means a lot more than you think, it shows me I'm doing at least something right with my characterization.
I have a lot of fun talking to you and throwing plot ideas around as well. OOC or IC, you're always a pleasure to have around and you and your muses are always welcome here, don't ever forget that. And it's an honor to know I have him fleshed out and make him feel realistic. Thank you again.

oc art go
this is celerity! we call her cel for short :D (its not her real name but anyone she actually cares about calls her that) im gonna write some stuff about her under the cut
she's part of a group of five teenagers that regularly find themselves in traumatising situations that the rest of the world would make them go to therapy for. specifically, her father is the owner of an organised crime ring (co-owner, the other owners kid is one of her besties kekw). she's been fighting since she was a kid, trying to learn every way to kill a man so that one day she could be number one and finally get his attention. or at least, she used to be. then she met four people who actually cared about her without all the murder killy nonsense, and she spends her time learning how to control herself.
she has lightning powers. they're spontaneous and emotional, just like she is. hard to use except in the heat of the moment. she's also exceptionally fast, both personality wise and physically. that was what gave her the nickname celerity (celerity, noun: swiftness of movement).
she dresses in a lot of bright colors, reds and pinks specifically. they're sort of byproducts of her trying to find ways to get her fathers attention, neon and impossible not to look at so that it would make people actually look at her.
her lightning powers often manifest in her eyes, and in cases where she's very emotional she can spark around them. the adrenaline helps her forget in the moment, but the aftermath is some pretty prominent scarring around her eyes.
she also has a ton of nicks from training, both by herself and with her friends.
she's a very extroverted person, and not at all afraid of confrontation. not super smart, but very well versed in body language and she knows how to push someone's buttons. in a sort of strange juxtaposition, she also is very good at calming people down. both are traits that she learnt from spending time with fighters that work for her dad (who treated her better than he ever did lowkey).
her speciality in the group is distractions and getaways. her agility and knack for making a scene makes her the perfect person to keep a large group occupied. even if she isn't quite as efficient at takedowns, she's can keep them focused on her long enough to wait for the others to arrive (and the thrill of the fight is worth the effort).
she's hyperactive. can't stop moving at any moment. part of it is the need for attention i mentioned earlier and part of it is that she's so used to movement at every turn around her that any sort of silence or quiet or stillness needs to be filled at all times. she often hums to herself in order to fill the air around her.
she's somewhere on the aro spectrum (not ace, but maybe lesbian? idk we're both still figuring that out). uses she/her pronouns but honestly dgaf.
her music taste is hyperpop. thats all you need to know.
anyways my mom is yelling at me so im going to bed hope you like her bye!

Kekw actually it's not wrong, I am technically in literature (sastra in Indonesian) specifically Japanese lit. Linguistics is what my supervisor professor wants us to focus on for thesis (we get assigned a supervisor at the start of college that'll supervise us throughout thesis process) ((My supervisor happens to focus on linguistics and basically wants the ones under them to focus on that as well, my indecisive ass just went with it))
What's not cool is that they're one of the oldest professors in the faculty and the older an educator gets, the wackier they get 💀💀 like my last ppt was deemed incoherent (like I know I half assed it but incoherent??? C'mon at least give me some constructive criticism instead of just saying "this and this are incoherent")
Oh alrighty, that makes sense and clears things up much better, huh I wonder if you can do videogame language for that thesis. I get the supervising part and the focus but an old person as a supervisor is definitely a big losing factor on that end, more so with criticism, they lack the detail and fervor to deep dive unlike the more seasoned professors *remembers having to revise my thesis ten times, shivers*
Perhaps you can look at it again and see if it would make sense without knowledge from the paper. PPTs should be able to capture the whole essence of your thesis right
(also Cilly I found a threesome fic with Su and Alhaitham)

I have a theory about the reason people(myself included) want to make Reader not entirely human or better/stronger/different than human, can be:
a)we don't like being us, humans.
b)you know those animes where the mc is the most bland, boring, average character, but turns out to be extremely powerful, or gets an extremely strong abylities(by accident, coincidence, chosen one, their loved one is gonna die, etc), gets the attention of all the powerful gorgeus people around them(more often than not because the mc has an ability they are interested in).
And we kinda internalized that being just a human can't be all. There must be something more. A human can't be just a human.
But that's just a theory, a reader theory. Goodnight.
(This got longer than I wanted it to be KEKW- But I can't help it, I talk a lot if it's something I have personal experience with.)
Oh yea no, the those reasons why peeps wanna avoid being human has been clear to me for years. There's way more reasons than that, of which most come down to personal preference. I've glanced at and avoided enough fics since at least 2017 where the Reader is some form of hybrid, god or something that isn't human or isn't unspecified. Just because my own personal preference lies more with reading about a Reader who is actually a regular human on earth, just trying to get by daily in life.
Thing is that if you read a fanfic where the Reader has literally no other description other than "normal mortal human", then there's nothing more to it. Visuals are up to the person behind the screen, besides the fact that the character is a regular human. It's always lowkey painful for me personally seeing peeps try to for example slap wings onto themselves, and pretend like they didn't just read they're supposed to be human. While it's fine if they wanna fantasize about it and ignore any balancing or realism rules privately, the AU is already imbalanced af enough in canon when certain aspects come into play.
The "what if" questions about the Reader being anything other than a human with no magical or racial bonus abilities are immediately seen as nothing more than hypotheticals that I personally would rather like to avoid talking about. My response to them all would just be "No". Because honestly, unless I can see something as an actual possibility in my works and it's actually logcial, like the idea of a Reader being a cannibal as well as, I'd rather keep hypotheticals away and not treat them as if they were possible in canon. Which is why I just straight up am all like "No" at those instead of responding with my own headcanons.
I'm just not comfortable with people trying to force changes on pre-established parts/rule sets in the world building. That's also part of why the Judge is in control of basically the board and its rules, making sure they're being upheld and kept as much in balance as possible. Eight powerful servants is already way more than the AU was supposed to have initially.
However, I am open about the idea of different upbringings of the Reader and how they became the Master and all that, because that is literally part of the philosophy seen in the AU. The idea that all humans are different in the way they act, live, see the world, and interpret things based on their own experiences. You don't have to suddenly be turned into something you are not, but wish to be seen as by others to get along with the people around you, or even be a leader to them. In this case the champions. That's why I usually respond to people talking about either personal experiences they've made themselves, or if it's about a very much possible scenario for a person to be in, or if it's about some condition or disability.
The champions are moreso seen as an extension of such a scenario. They don't just fall heads over heels for the Reader overnight either, as they can also just remain forever platonic. The experience made to get to anything more than that relies on the Master's actions, behavior, etc. with each individual champion. Which is why my responses feel repetetive regarding the reactions of the champions. I can't go into detail on those general reactions as everyone's relationship and expeiences with them would be different.
The AU isn't based around just one Reader, but a collective. If one is non-human, everyone would need to be non-human, more specifically the same species, due to the borrowed soul being that of a human. The only thing that's the same for all the Masters is just the human soul, since that's the thing that lets them find the Reader in the AU and feel connected to them. The soul of the Reader is already powerful enough in that regard, even if it's just mainly for the connection and acting like a tracker for both the champions and the Judge. (Unless an oopsie happens and the Reader accidentally ends up turning into something like an insect the others have a harder time finding as the soul wouldn't be noticeable enough, of course. But it's a rare moment.)
The Reader's soul in my previous works in Undertale actually worked similarly, but was altered a bit in ESAU for the experiment being held in the AU.

1. My favorite fic of yours
I LOVED clinic, tied for second are 17 hours and the stars and their children!
3. The best character you've written for
it's been said before but Wilbur is your brand! also I love the way you write Techno
6. Something I remember vividly from reading one of your fics
your "quick easy breakfast" thing from the authors notes of clinic KEKW - i now have rice with egg and soy sauce regularly (which actually helps me remember to eat - undiagnosed ADHD pog?)
8. What I like the most about your writing
I love the specific voice you use, and your choice of adjectives and grammar! A lot of fics are really good but the authors don't quite have the same linguistic skill you do!
9. A fic i'm excited for you updating/posting
I'm super excited for the rest of stars! I love the political tension and the fact that this is a very new concept (space royalty pog)
11. Something I wish/hope you write
I don't know how much expertise you have in this area or if you're willing to research it but I would love a ballet au, or other dance au! I feel like there's a lot of potential in a modern setting dance studio au, whether it's just the setting for the plot or the plot is centered around dance itself :3
12. A fic of yours that i've re-read
I've read clinic like three times! I love it so much :DDD
13. If i've ever shared/talked about your fic to someone else
OH BOY HAVE I EVER! Every fic I read that I particularly love I talk about to my sibling (the one who finally caved and read 17 hours kekw) and i'll ramble for ages but never do it justice because it's my dodgy memory versus your amazing writing :)
:>
hi crow anon!!!
wow I'm surprised how many people say 17 hours is their favorite fic of mine. I loved it of course because of how cool the concept was and how wonderfully mine and roxy's writing played off of each other, but still never expected so many people to think of it as a favorite so that makes me so happy to hear!!
omg a compliment on how I write techno... tysm I literally am always so unsure in my characterization of c!techno that's why he's my least favorite to write bc I'm just always so worried if I'm doing him justice or not
LMAOOO totally forgot about that time I talked about breakfast in the notes of clinic. tbh I should start making goofy authors notes like that again. also I haven't actually eaten eggs with rice and soy sauce for breakfast in a LONG time. lately my breakfast has been lighter stuff like fruits and cheese, but I kinda miss the rice and eggs so might get back into it (also ADHD pog!!)
that means so much aaa I've worked very hard over the years to develop a specific voice in my writing so I'm really glad it shines through. I know my writing isn't super flowery which is a personal preference of mine, but I'm happy it's distinctive all the same. it takes a lot of years to develop a rhythm with the words and grammar you use when writing, so it just makes me happy to hear someone notices it :)
hehe i'm so excited to update stars. gonna finish the next chapter tomorrow hopefully so maybe it'll be out on monday??
fun fact i literally watch vlogs from ballerinas on youtube all the time (have one open in another tab rn) and I've watched a lot of documentaries on ballet dancing as well (also, I took ballet as a kid but only when I was little and not for very long). I LOVE learning about ballet, but I've always been unsure about making a ballet au solely bc I obviously write crimeboys, but the part of ballet i'm most interested in is dancing en pointe, and men don't usually dance en pointe. I'm still considering researching more into the men's side of ballet, but there's just such a limited number of women on the dsmp that it would be a bit tricky for sure
god rereading clinic 3 times?? that's so long I have so much respect
awww it makes me smile to hear that people talk about my fics to each other :D
ty for this crow anon!!!
ask game!

I could be writing next week’s build but I’m going to bitch about Monsters of the Multiverse instead
Tumblr media
(I’m using Prestige Eclipse Senna because it’s not like I’m going to use this artwork anywhere else. Artist unknown; made for Riot Games.)
https://old.reddit.com/r/dndnext/comments/ure5qd/monsters_of_the_multiverse_patch_notes_writeup/
I bought the book (mostly because I didn’t own Volo’s / Tome of Foes and I wanted the newest version of the races, also D&D Beyond content kekw) but I haven’t peeked at it properly yet. Thankfully people on Reddit have done me the favor of listing all the “patch notes” so I figure while I wait for (STUFF) to happen early in the morning I’ll just write my thoughts on what was changed in MoTM, and post ‘em whenever this thread is done.
General Changes
I like the change to innate spellcasting and that’s about all I can comment on. I was never the biggest fan of innate casting because it felt kinda bad to have one-time use spells, but getting them added to your spell list makes certain race / class combinations more interesting.
Aarakocra
Gust of Wind isn’t that impressive but it isn’t terrible. I like that it gives the Aarakocra more flavor though, and it has some interesting implications for the general adventuring day.
RIP 50 foot flying speed but that shit was broken as hell. RIP the “Aarakocra” language but it’s not like you ever got to use it lol. Overall a nice improvement that fixes balance problems and gives the race some new abilities to compensate. Still a rather boring flying race overall though in my humble opinion, and I think WoTC shouldn’t be so scared to make flying races interesting.
Aasimar
Smol Aasimar pog.
Healing Hands being buffed is nice. Being able to choose your transformation (instead of it being tied to subrace) is nice, although Necrotic Shroud is still based on Charisma because fuck you I guess no good pseudo-magical abilities for Martials.
The extra damage from your transformation being your Proficiency Bonus (as opposed to level) is a HUGE nerf. Even with the transformation being a Bonus Action (a nice buff overall) the loss in damage isn’t worth it. I thought the transformation was going to be usable Prof Bonus times per Long Rest? Being able to add Prof Bonus to your attacks and essentially cast a 3rd level spell (Fear / Fly / Spirit Shroud) absolutely isn’t worth it. Way to gut Aasimar, WoTC. :^) I’m going to be homebrewing the transformations to be Prof. Bonus uses per Long Rest, thanks.
Bugbear
Why was long limb race buffed? It was good enough smh. Legit just flat buffs for the sake of flat buffs on a race that was already rather strong because fuck balance.
Centaur
Basically nothing was changed (except for the fact that the hooves are a d6 now) which is rather ironic given reasons that will be apparent soon.
Changeling
Changelings being Fey is actually kinda interesting. The biggest change however is that Shapechanger now allows you to be Small, which is actually a pretty big buff to the race. This does actually make Changelings better than “just cast Disguise Self” which is a nice boon overall, but idk if Changelings really needed the buff.
Deep Gnome
Wow free Disguise Self and Nondetection? I mean one is way stronger than the other but it’s still a nice buff! Stone Camouflage also being pocket advantage is very useful for a variety of characters; most notably Rogues obviously but there aren’t many characters who wouldn’t appreciate free advantage for the few odd times they roll Stealth.
Duergar
I find the advantage against Stunned (as opposed to Paralyzed) odd. Is Stunned more common? Less? I dunno. I think this might just be a shadowbuff to Hold Person, which causes Paralyzed. At least Duergar are good against Monks?
You can actually cast Reduce on yourself, which is nice. and you can cast outside of sunlight. RIP Stone Cunning for Duergar lmao.
Elves
Because that’s how the document I’m reading is based on.
Trance getting 2 weapons / tools is actually rather crazy. It suddenly makes Elf Eladrin / Sea Elf / Shadar-kai Wizards, Sorcerers, and the likes capable of using rapiers if they don’t want Shocking Grasp. Rogues and Monks in particular can get whips and scimitars without multiclassing.
Eladrin
So Fey Step can be based off INT or WIS but Scourge Aasimar can’t? Fuck you WoTC.
Sea Elf
Cold resistance. N e a t. This actually makes a Sea Elf Monk a decently good build: Cold resistance, swimming speed, Elven Accuracy feat, and whip proficiency. Might make a Sea Elf Monk at some point.
Shadar-kai
Flat buff to their teleport. Kk. More of an Eladrin reskin than before (in terms of racial abilities.)
Fairy
lol
Firbolg
They kept the old Firbolg artwork? Fucking seriously?
Anyways Hidden Step being Prof Bonus uses per Long Rest is way better than before tbh. It makes it way easier to use when you need it. Other than that nothing much was changed but the problem with Firbolg was always their lore and ugly-ass appearance, not their racial traits. WoTC plz bring back 3.5e Firbolgs or make Mercer’s cowbolgs canon I beg of you.
Genasi
Darkvision is nice. Size stuff is nice. That’s all I really have to say.
Air
Biiiiiiig buffs! 35 foot movement speed, resistance to a damage type (no matter how uncommon it is it’s still nice), and two free spells, one of them being Shocking Grasp which is universally good! There’s a reason I made Zeri an Air Genasi when I built her: I think Air Genasi arguably became one of my favorite races!
Earth
Still a boring race and I don’t know what use Blade Ward as a Bonus Action has.
Fire
Flame Blade is a bad spell. They couldn’t think of anything else to give the Fire Genasi? Eh I guess they’re still fine as is, but I’d play a Tiefling instead any day.
Water
Removing Shape Water was weird but hey: Acid Splash and Water Walk are alright as spells. Water Walk in particular can be cast as a Ritual if you get a class which can Ritual Cast. Overall still kinda a boring race that’s basically only defined by a swimming speed.
-
Genasi still kinda suck with the exception of Air Genasi, which are now super cool ngl. I’m sad that Air got so many cool abilities when it was already the coolest Genasi, meanwhile Water got nothing more than a combat cantrip and Earth / Fire arguably got nerfed.
Githyanki
Astral Knowledge is pretty crazy for a Monk / Rogue for reasons I listed before with the elves. Other than that it’s basically the same, although you can’t pick the race for Medium armor proficiency.
Githzerai
Basically the same lol.
Goblin
Net neutral imo. Being able to use Fury of the Small more often is nice if you want to nova I guess.
Goliath
My DM mentioned that “Little Giant” technically stacks with Bear Totem Barbarian and other sources of the “Powerful Build” trait because of WoTC wording. Other than that Stone’s Endurance buff(?) is nice since more accessible uses of the ability helps overall.
Harengon
lol
Hobgoblin
So this is where the Feywild Hobgoblins went! I don’t like that Saving Face / Fortune of the Many still needs allies around you but nerfing it to a flat +3 is fine overall. +5 was too strong and I think +3 when you have an ally within 30 feet is a good compromise, but the need to have 3 allies close to you still sucks.
Kenku
Kenku basically got a flat buff, hm? I mean, I guess you can’t stack Expertise on Deception but everything else is a flat buff. Kenku Training in particular is absolutely fucking nutty: it’s free Advantage on two chosen skills for basically no cost. Setting this on any important skill like Perception, Insight, Stealth, or Athletics makes your character just... good for the sake of being good? Kenku arguably got overbuffed and I really don’t understand why.
Kobold
undefined
youtube
I don’t have much to say other than “removing Pack Tactics in favor of ‘durr you get a skill proficiency’ is lame as fuck.” Was Pack Tactics overpowered? Yes. Do I prefer these boring as hell kobolds? God no. Pack Tactics explained it way better than I ever could.
undefined
youtube
undefined
youtube
Eh well I may as well copy-paste my comment on that video too:
Tumblr media
Lizardfolk
Tumblr media
First of all: if you saw a problem with fictional lizard people making weapons out of bones then you’re the racist one for projecting real-world racial stereotypes on fictional lizard people. :^)
Other than that it’s effectively a net neutral on Lizardfolk, but I have no idea why Cunning Artisan was removed. It feels like they took out abilities that made the race unique purely because “fuck you that’s why.”
Minotaur
Okay so they removed Cunning Artisan from Lizardfolk but then added Labyrinthine Recall to Minotaur? So are we removing stereotypes or not? I guess when it comes to fictional cow people it’s fine to make stereotypes about Greek Mythology, but stereotypes about fictional lizard people isn’t fine?
Orc
First of all the artwork is fucking cool. I’m not posting it (something something go buy the book.)
But like... Orcs are just objectively better than Half-Orcs now, right? Because the one trait that made Half-Orcs worth playing (Relentless Endurance) are available to full Orcs, and crit fishing builds are fucking bad which makes the only other trait of Half-Orcs fucking bad. Bonus Action Dash + Temp HP is better for every class except Monks and Rogues, and you were never going to play a Half-Orc Monk. (Half-Orc Rogue maybe I guess.)
I like this change because it removes the racist lore of Orcs and makes them sooooo much better as a race, but holy shit fucking lmao RIP people who liked Half-Orcs get fucking cucked.
Satyr
Weird language change that’s seemingly only done because of the new monster statblocks that WoTC has been pushing out.
Shifter
I am the resident furry and probably the only person who knows what Shifters do (like I am consistently surprised that no one knows what they do) so I can give a fairly in-depth review on the changes.
Bestial Instincts: It’s nice because you can now go for Longtooth and take a skill proficiency that isn’t fucking Intimidation. You can also choose between Athletics or Acrobatics depending on if you’re focusing on DEX or STR, with Survival being there as a nice backup. (Acrobatics and Athletics are universally good to have though to avoid grapples though.)
Languages: +1 language pog! I know I usually brush off languages but hey: a buff’s a buff!
Shifting Temp HP: It’s pretty obvious that level + CON will almost always be higher than x2 Prof bonus. That being said x2 Prof bonus is “good enough” in most cases. To illustrate my point here’s a line graph showing the relative difference in Temp HP between a character with +0 CON mod and the current Shifter Temp HP.
Tumblr media
The difference between the two of them doesn’t become that big until around level 13 or so. Even by level 20 there’s only an 8 Temp HP difference, which yes is still noticeable but by level 20 it’s basically the equivalent of a 1st level Healing Word.
Shifting No. Uses: This is the other big thing. Being able to shift Prof. Bonus times is basically a net buff. Having your Shifting be more easily accessible isn’t just a buff for ease-of-use, but it’s also a big buff to the subraces (no more subraces lmao) that get more situational boosts from their Shifting: Longtooth can now reliably use their Bonus Action attack in most fights, and Wildhunt can use their Shifting out-of-combat without feeling like trash.
Shifting overall: Unless you’re getting Short Rests equal to your proficiency bonus this is a big net buff, and honestly if you get that many Short Rests then chances are you didn’t need your race to be stronger lol. Overall the Longtooth probably got the biggest buff (arguably being the strongest Strength-based melee combat race now although I’d still prefer to play a Minotaur ngl) with Wildhunt also being made better. Beasthide can grab skills other than Athletics now which is nice for character diversity (DEX tanks are easier to make.) Longstride is basically the only one that hasn’t gotten buffed that heavily, but even then you can take a skill other than Acrobatics if you want more movement speed on your PAM + Sentinel character or something.
Tabaxi
Smol cats pog.
Tortle
Why did they lose Survival proficiency...?
Triton
Weird buff but a buff none-the-less. You can talk to water elementals now lol, which presents some interesting thematic builds. Honestly the bigger buff is that your innate spells get added to your spell list, since you can get Fog Cloud, Gust of Wind, and Water Walk...
Hey wait a second Wall of Water got replaced with Water Walk! That’s kinda shitty. I guess technically Wall of Water wasn’t in the PHB so they can’t say that you get that spell. WoW is a better spell than WW but neither spell is too ground-shattering overall, so I guess Water Walk isn’t that bad overall.
Yuan-Ti
Smol sneks lol.
They nerfed Poison Immunity but this race is still overpowered bullshit overall. You now get Suggestion (and Animal Friendship?) added to your spell list for free, so they made a dumb race simultaneously more and less dumb at the same time.
---------------------------
Overall
These changes confuse me. Buffs to strong races, nerfs to weak ones, and complete removal of some abilities for no other reason than “memes lmao” seemingly. There are some good changes here but a whole lotta bad ones. Actually ya know what we may as well list all the ones I think are good and bad:
Good Changes
Changeling
Deep Gnome
Duergar
Eladrin
Firbolg
Air Genasi
Water Genasi
Githyanki
Hobgoblin
Kenku (very crazy buffs for no reason lmao)
Minotaur
Orc
Sea Elf
Shadar-kai
Shifter
Tabaxi (smol cats pog)
Net Neutral
Aarakocra
Centaur
Fairy
Earth Genasi
Githzerai
Goblin
Goliath
Harengon
Satyr
Bad Changes
Aasimar
Bugbear
Fire Genasi
Kobold (RIP in piss Pack Tactics)
Lizardfolk (Very strange nerf overall)
Tortle (Very strange nerf overall)
Triton (I liked Wall of Water more but not a huge nerf)
Yuan-ti (Poison Immunity being nerfed to Poison Resistance doesn't make up for the fact that playing a Yuan-ti gives you the Suggestion spell for free on your spell list)
Any race that’s bolded I feel very strongly about. The ones with notes in brackets usually imply that the change is very small but small enough for me to consider it noteworthy, although sometimes I just want to comment with my final thoughts.
Also when I say good / bad change I don’t mean buff / nerf, but rather if the change makes the race more balanced overall.
I guess as a whole this book is mostly harmless (with the exception of the absolute gutting of kobolds.) I’m happy to have purchased this as someone who didn’t own Volo’s Guide or Tome of Foes. But I feel like this book as a whole was a waste of printing time just to errata some stuff that didn’t need to be errata’d. Or rather, I wish that they had actually written some damn errata instead of releasing an entirely new book just to fix things.

Warning for spoilers!
thoughts for in space with markiplier and a little bit about the illusion of choice. in this essay I will-
I remember distinctly feeling a sense of dread once I hit an ending where the universe ended. There had to be a path where the universe was saved, right?
My first ending of part 1 act 1 was fixing it from the outside from the outside 3 times because I decided that I was going to stick by it even though fixing it from the outside was way different from what I thought it was going to be.
(Not me realizing that every time I fixed it from the outside, I doomed my ship since the reactor was going to blow anyways.
“The multiverse is littered with the corpses of your failures!” Shouted the Lady multiple times.
Dorene questioning me if I was making the best possible choices.
Me: oh. … well, fuck.)
(Oh no, some videos are being reused and I got to the point where every time i saw the warp core hallway, I knew that the universe was gonna fucking end. D: )
My first ending of part 1 act 2 was calling for backup without knowing that wug would drive into my spaceship.
Needless to say, I wanted to find out if there was a way to save my crew members because I was the captain of the ship. There was a voice (which I now know as Dorene) telling me to not give up.
And so, there I went going through all of the branches and making a mind map. (Just in case of codes or if I missed anything.)
The only ending where the universe did not collapse was the frozen ending because we did not do anything stupid to blow up the ship!!!
Ouch.
Imagine my relief once I met Wilford and he said our meeting is in part 2. Mark changing the video title to part 1. Naturally, I was thankful. I prayed that there was an answer to the despair part 1 brought me.
I couldn’t help but feel slightly responsible. After all, the crew were a compelling bunch and I went through so many choices trying my best to save them. Not going to give up on them just yet.
(Sorry CC, i did a pop er in reverse coz I felt bad for Burt. Thankfully I wasn’t punished toooo heavily and had a chance to call for a distress signal right after.)
Moving on to Part 2, I accidentally pushed old mark’s advice out of my head and so… once we got to the warp core hallway after the empty diner, my first thought after Mark said who throws sand? Was “wasn’t it you?”
And then it clicked that I had to hold on. Because if I let go, Mark would become Old Mark. (Sand. Fake hand. Target date not guaranteed.)
(oh.)
(Mark: I’m tired.
Me: me too, buddy. *sniff* Me too.)
(Random fact: the don’t scene was too short for me to process as anything but Mark being antagonistic and I gotta save the crew!! Stop this dude!! + I did not realize the porn stars were there in the romance route because I was just like oh lol multiverse mixing together until lifeguard mark said his line that I got any inkling but then the scene changed and so I promptly forgot about all that. Until I looked at social media and realised what happened. Kekw)
Anyways, I did not trust the real ending at first. (What with fixing it from the outside making me terribly afraid.)
And then, finally. Mark says thank you for not giving up on me. And I finally say PHEW! (Did I just get the best ending from the get go???) (Also omg darkiplier is in the POST CREDIT SCENE omg HEIST CONNECTION!!!)
(I’m a romance and then go Right Person. Uhhh don’t open the door, cut the red(?) wire because I was scared I didn’t have time to explain and then telling mark to not go back at the campsite. Yea.)
So there I was making my mind maps again. And I was like oh. What. There’s only 1 canonical ending-ish. But soooo many different way to reach it.
(In a way the choices you make matter because of the way they affect your experience but also it kind of didn’t matter because there were only a handful that really mattered, for the ending at least.) (Tbf, your choices don’t matter cause this is a YT series and that there are only have a number of choices that Can be given to you but that’s whole other topic hahaha)
(Edit shower thoughts lol: hold up, to get the good ending there’s really just one choice. Which uh. Ouch. I guess it really do be the illusion of choices???
Ohhh wait no, that last choice is just the only choice that really mattered. So it kind of is a choice?)
And I thought it was beautiful. The way they connected. The scenes we were thrown into. The little Easter eggs you find hidden in different places. How everyone was doing their best to save the universe in the way that they thought best. How pretty all of the VFX shots were. How everyone was so good at acting and the amount of footage that was edited to put this all together.
(Source: trust me. I’m an as-of-right-now someone who is near the completion of an Animation diploma. Visual effects and animation are Not Easy.)
The comedy is so good and it’s so dumb and I give an amused breath through my nose as I remember some of the funny shots. I loop the last goodbye, space was so cool and I don’t wanna be free on Spotify. I buy what is probably my first expensive merch because of shipping fee and currency. o7 to my money. I’m advertising and going through the choices with my family and friends.
If anything this series has done, it’ll be that it has done a big impact and a big inspiration. I want to make something as beautiful as this. I want to make something that’ll give people an unforgettable experience.
(It is also a harsh thought that I’m so lucky of my choices. Because I was at an all time low at a point in my life in the period between heist and space. I think “wow if I had said goodbye to this world. I would not have seen space. And it would be such a big shame.”)
TLDR; projects done by Markiplier are very cool and only a few choices really matter. I want to let you know that life is worth living, you handsome and/or beautiful person that made it to the bottom of this post. Thanks for reading.

14: What's your all-time favorite ship?
ouuuuu ive got a lot of pairings I really really cherish. Jercy my beloved, uhhh Valgrace is so silly, I like to consider myself one of The Kamuegi writers ever, and Pumpkinduo kind of holds an insanely special place in my heart
15: What's the WIP you hope to finish but doubt you ever will?
(Un)Lifetime Achievement Award as sad as it sounds. I love it so much and I'm so insanely proud of it and I love the story but there's soooo much planned and the person I was planning it with hasn't spoken to me in a while. I have hope that I'll finish it someday! Or at least get another two chapters out!
16: What are your writing strengths?
Uhhhhhhh,,,,I don't. actually know! I do a lot of flowery sentences ig? and I think I'm pretty good at angst and similar things
17: What are your writing weaknesses?
Making (and completing) multichap fics, getting ideas to write, finding the motivation to write, and I am definitely bad at planning things out in advance
18: Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?
I've done it pretty sparingly in the past, because I want to incorporate other languages and loooove language, but don't know any of them very well aside from English. But I try to do a lot of research before I add something in, and am 100% open and insistent that someone correct me if I messed up, or if there's another way to go about saying what I'm trying to say, or just to tell me more!
19: First fandom you wrote for?
Never published because I was a kid and it was. So Bad but !!! It was actually for the Minecraft Roleplay series Mary and Dad's Minecraft Adventure (MADMA) back around 2011-2013. I've been in mcrp hell for. a LONG time jesus christ
20: Favorite fic you've ever written?
ohhhh good question. Fullbury Records is very special to me and I'm ALWAYS thinking of what to add to that series, and (Un)Lifetime Achievement Award ofc is also very special to me. I think Heart to Heart is going places once I get back to writing the next chapter, too But I'm also veeeerrry proud of Famous Last Words, and it's very special to me as a projection piece LMAO
