🌟 SUNNIE 🍓 started their LIVE: cb live 💕
streamed on: weverse date: 24.02.26 languages: kor. = “normal”, “chn = bold” warnings: implied breakups, mentioned drinking
“Hi, Carats! Welcome to the comeback live for my second mini album!” Sunnie greets. “It’s been a long time, right?” She says, looking down at the comments.
💎: Unnie we missed you!!!
“I missed you guys too… I've been really busy recently, and I just got back from fashion week.”
“I also had to dye my hair purple, but it's kind of fading now.. It reminds me of the purple hair I had during Mansae era.” Sunnie laughs
“I’ll start introducing the album now since it comes out in one hour!” She says as the staff signals her to hurry up.
Sunnie leaves the frame, then returns with a physical copy of ‘Good, Bad, Ugly.’ “Here’s the album Carats!” Sunnie exclaims while showing it off. “There are three album versions, ‘Good, Bad, and Ugly,’ but I only have ‘Bad’ right now.”
💎: what is the meaning of the album name?
“The meaning of the album is to show all the sides of a relationship with others and with yourself, the positive and the negative, which is where I came up with the name.” She explained.
“I need to speed this up, so I'll start introducing the tracks now!” She laughed as she put away the album. “There are eight tracks on the album and, Woozi and Bumzu Oppa helped me make most of them.”
“I wrote all of the songs based on different experiences I've had throughout my life and want to thank everyone who participated in creating them with me!”
“Okay, the first song is ‘DIZZY’, the album intro.” “It talks about how dizzy it feels to love someone when you aren’t sure how they feel about you,” Sunnie explains.
A 20-second snippet of ‘DIZZY’ plays on the speaker while Sunnie reads the comments.
💎: wahh, how is this only an intro?? isn't it good enough to be a full song?
“Originally, it was going to be a full song but honestly I never ended up finishing the full song so…” She shrugs.
“Next is the title track ‘Find Myself’ which I originally wrote in 2018 when I was struggling a lot with my identity in and outside of Seventeen but it never got fully written, so Woozi Oppa helped me rewrite the song.”
A 10-second snippet of Find Myself plays while Sunnies dances along.
“Since it's releasing soon, I won’t make any additional comments and just move on to the next song, which would be…” She pauses, “Oh, right! The song is ‘My Love,’ I wrote it when I had a lot of love in my heart and felt emotional, so I hope Carats can feel those same feelings!”
While the snippet plays she checks the comments again.
🐻❄️: introduce late night pls 🤲
“Since Hansol is getting impatient, we can move on to ‘LATE NIGHT.’ We were out together drinking and somehow ended up writing a song just about having late night conversations, kind of inspired by our actual conversations.”
🐻❄️: best song on the album imo
“Hansolie is so..” She trails off, shaking her head.
“Anyway! Next is the song ‘Good, Bad, Ugly’ is actually about the different parts of yourself instead of a relationship. You should always love yourself no matter what!”
After a moment of reading the comments she checked the time.
“Wow.. It’s already 20 minutes until the release..” She laughed. “Alright, this next song is called ‘Star,’ Junnie wrote it with me. It's just a beautiful song, and I feel like the meaning can be up for your own interpretations.” She said while smiling.
💎: I get so happy to hear you sing in chinese!!
“It makes me really happy too! I can definitely see myself making a full Chinese album one day.”
“The next song is ‘Our Street,” which I wrote after having a bad breakup a very long time ago and I never had a chance to release it until now, it's a really sad song but definitely my favorite.”
💎: it's so strange seeing an idol openly talk about their relationships ㅋㅋㅋ
Sunnie hummed in acknowledgment, “I’m almost 26, so I feel like I can talk about it now. Also, nothing that hasn't been said about me before, so why not just make music about it.” She said, shrugging.
“Wow, the last song already? The track is called ‘In My Dreams’ and I wrote it about unrequited love and wishing that they liked you back.”
After the snippet was done playing Sunnie started waving goodbye. “The album should be out in a couple of minutes now, please give the songs a lot of support!”
“Bye Carats!”

hello may i have some dvd commentary for this delicious little scene here from Still the pine-woods scent the moon (it’s 300 or so words so i figured a screenshot was easier than copying your own words into here sorry)
honestly anything you’d like to share about this fic i will happily gobble up thank you very much 🤲 thank you, love you, bye!!!!!!
ahaha YES you absolutely can!!!!
(spoilers (ig?) for Still the pine woods scent the moon and E-rated talk ahead!)
1) so by the time i got to writing this scene (which is, what? 3k in out of 15k?), the fic had already been reworked twice-ish
firstly, it was originally a sirius/harry fic – i have 250 words of a bit slightly earlier the fic (the bit where harry admits he wanted to get fucked) that was the original idea the entire fic was built around, except it was harry admitting it to sirius and sirius was having conflicted horny godfather thoughts.
secondly, once i'd rewritten the whole beginning with remus, i wrote up to the "who's right? me or draco?" line without knowing where the fic was going. i say this every time i write a 15k fic, but i really did want this to be a quick PWP – for a while i was considering having remus snap right there and they go straight into mindless feral fucking, because i did not WANT to write another 10k. i never want to write a single word if i can help it. here's a boring screenshot of me talking it through in poor @bronwenackeley's DMs.
2) the last couple of paragraphs in this screenshot were placeholder text. they feel kind of clumsy to me? a bit tell-y? a bit cringe? eventually i decided i didn't have the skill to improve them and just deleted the square brackets and left them as-is lol.
3) i tried to include wolfy words to describe remus when he's losing control around harry. this is probably really obvious and doesn't need me pointing it out, but whenever he's struggling, there's usually a growl or a snarl or a mention of claws or teeth or something. i do think i overdid it with this a bit tbh but i enjoyed having that as a lil goal for myself.
4) finally, and this is not relevant to your screenshot at all but it's my other fav behind-the-scenes fact about this fic, but also in the trash heap doc for this one is 500 words of harry and charlie having sex – bc in one draft, remus DID sneak upstairs and listen at the door when he came home to them doing the do. i was a little sad at having to cut it bc there's a fair chunk of banter-y dialogue (ofc), but it's pretty much all covered by the exchange later in the fic where harry says it was hard to lose himself with charlie, so i just made remus go downstairs and get horny drunk on his own lmao.
i didn't want to make this answer any longer by including the bits i cut/changed, but i do have the harry/sirius and harry/charlie scenes if u wanna see them!! lmk!! ❤️

Heyy 👋
I haven’t officially made this announcement on any other platforms yet so you guys are the first to hear this—
Soo I am going into full time freelancing again! 👀 I finally quit my day job and I’ll be staying with my boyfriend for a bit, so I can just focus on better growing a brand for myself I suppose? Idk we’re working together and we’re gonna see how this goes 🙏 I’m in the process of making some merch to open a little online shop somewhere, aaand I have plans to open a patreon soon! c: I’m still putting things together, some of it is a lot and happening on top of each other all at once, so for the time being it’s all on a TBA status
I do need to update my commission prices for those who are interested in that 🤔 I’ll have more options this time around and I’ll be trying to keep them scheduled, so let me know if you’re interested and stay tuned for updates on that!
As for the shop, I’m not certain of where I’ll go thru — I’ve been thinking Etsy because it’s pretty easy and widely known, and beginner friendly from my understanding at least, but I’m open to better suggestions if anyone knows any other sites! I already have a small amount of designs being processed right now for stickers and keychains, some original and some fanart type ones ✨ if things go well in this first wave and I get good interest in more designs I’ll definitely let you guys know so you can help me pick out ideas and franchises you’d maybe like to purchase!
Also for patreon, I wanted your guys’ input on things that would be good to keep exclusive there 🤔🤔 like I’ve been told early access and like process or tutorial videos would be good, but I want you guys to tell me what you would want in something like that from me 🤲 i will be starting it simple and small when I get there, but I still want it to be worth checking out so let me know!
I’ll stop here for now, I’ll be updating my commission prices once I settle in with my boyfriend, and as soon as I get mock ups for previews on the merch I’ll drop them here 💃✨

🎢, 🍦,💖,🤗,😬, 💔, 🤲?
🎢 Which of your fics would you call your wildest ride?
oh, definitely career goals: tyrant - it's unhinged from chapter 1 and only gets more so
🍦 What’s the sweetest fic you’ve created so far?
i was torn so i picked 2 afslghjksdf - the first one is sun and shadow, aka the pjo au, and the second is the point of creation, which is a check please fic with lardo/ransom in which lardo is a composer and ransom is a poet and they make art for each other and it's very soft
💖 What made you start writing?
hmm i don't think there was ever a set Moment - i've always been coming up with stories, and i'm p sure my parents have some picture books/graphic novels/comics/idk what to call them drawn by yours truly at age <5. i started actually like, typing stories in a word processor in about 4th grade because my best friend was writing a story and i wanted to copy her
🤗 What advice would you give to new fanfic writers that are just getting started?
3 things: first of all, try not to jump straight into posting your stuff somewhere like ao3. get a feel for what you like writing and what makes you happy before you start introducing things like 'how many people kudosed my fic today' - there is SO MUCH fic out there, and it can be very hard to build an audience/find your people, especially when you're just starting out. there's no reason to demoralize yourself right away. build up your sense of what YOU like before you start worrying about whether other people like it. (sharing your writing with your friends is different - they're your friends, not faceless internet people ashfkjhsf)
second of all, it's important to make sure that you're actually enjoying the process. writing fanfic should be fun - if it feels like a chore or an obligation, it might be time to step back and see if you've accidentally turned it into a job instead of something you do solely because you enjoy it
third of all, writing a complete fic beginning to end is a skill in and of itself. don't expect yourself to just sit down and bang out a multichap fic with flawless pacing and an amazing ending. that's something that requires practice. the best way to practice is to finish what you start. you don't have to finish absolutely everything - as i said, this should be fun - but just be aware that if you want to complete your fics in a satisfying way, you need to practice writing complete stories. one-shots are a great way to start!
😬 Which of your fics would you be most horrified for friends, family, or coworkers to stumble upon?
ohhhh man
honestly, the entire concept makes me wince, but tbh probably lachrimae. i feel like that's the one most likely to inspire the 'why aren't you writing original stories, you should be writing original stories' reaction
💔 Is there a fic of yours that broke your heart?
i have a few, all regulus angst - we've got implode--, survived by, and happy birthday, which i wrote when i was ~15 and, if i do say so myself, KILLED IT.
implode-- is about sirius rescuing a mostly-dead regulus from the cave, survived by is about sirius finding death eater regulus after evan's death (there's a theme LMAO - that's a fic i wouldn't be able to write these days, i'm too attached to evan now), and happy birthday is canon-compliant snapshots of regulus's life from age 11 to age 18
🤲 Would you please share a snippet of a wip?
ABSOLUTELY. HERE'S LACHRIMAE
-
Voldemort says, "Do you consider yourself a fighter, Regulus?"
It could pass for conversational—silk floating on water. He hisses the tiniest bit on Regulus, a tiny whistle of air after precisely pronounced syllables like an ice cube against the back of Regulus's neck. Regulus's mask gleams at his side, awkward and useless in his hand—he can't put it on, but he can't put it away, and so there it stays, a glimmering ghost in the sun.
What sort of answer does Voldemort want? He doesn't want Regulus to fight, he wants to keep his Seer safe, but there has to be a reason he's asking, a reason he called Regulus in the first place.
Regulus doesn't consider himself a fighter. He's... flexible. He bends, goes around instead of through. Fire and brimstone have always been more Bellatrix's thing, and Voldemort must know that.
"You," Voldemort says, "have a habit of responding to my questions with silence."
Great.

I think your newest episode is your most iconic episode yet and I really appreciate the number of times you all said you were going to cut stuff and then didn't. Don't silence yourselves, speak your truths!! We have nothing to lose but our chains!! Question, if you run the pajama boy poll in your gc, can you please release the results to us 🤲 I am desperate to know conclusively if Eddie Kingston is a pajama boy but I don't think I know enough about Crooked Media to make that assessment by myself.
So happy to hear you say that--we DID have to cut some uhhhhhh over the line things from that ep. Also a FULLY fifteen minute long digression where we were just READING the original pajama boy article outloud and reminiscing about how simple life was when this was the discourse.
anyway, your question came at a perfect time, because we had just been discussing whether we wanted to breeze through the (annoying) events of the week and play a game. and SO because of your ask, we ended up sorting people into babygirl, fuckable old man, pajama boy, and Regular Guy. STAY TUNED FOR TOMORROW.
ALSO, I DON'T KNOW IF PEOPLE WERE ACTUALLY INTERESTED, but the game i made my GC was based on this meme by twitter user qbist, which is for kpoppers but i immediately repurposed it. i cut out wrestlers and left their pics along the side, and instructed them to drag their choices onto each area.
here's an example of what a finished one looks like!
if you want to play my gc's babygirl sorting game, download this file, and then upload it to pixlr.com. you SHOULD be able to drag everyone around. yes i did do this during business hours and no i do not think you should tell my boss.
xoxo

For the writer ask game: 🌻🍭💎🤲🏻
Ohhh now these are some heavy hitting questions 😂 Let’s see how long these answers might get LOL
🌻 what makes you want to give up on writing? what makes you keep going? Oh this question is just going to punch me in the face right off the bat, huh? 😂😂😂
Currently going through a bit of a hiatus writing wise and a lot of times I just. Think about permanently giving up a lot lol It’s coming up 2-2.5 years now but writing has not only been hard but I have barely published anything and scrounging up enough to write even 100 words can be so much. I have lots of thoughts and ideas but even just thinking about them to try to put it to pen and paper is just…a lot.
It’s not the first time I’ve had a writing hiatus, I had a 10 year one before (which sounds like a lot but I literally started writing back in elementary school, for some context lol) and while a lot happened during that time, I never thought I would get back to writing again. Something did eventually and I got back but I’ve been having periodic moments on and off since 2016, but never as long as this. (Usually only for a few months)
There is a lot that makes me wanna give up, but I try to give myself the room just NOT to actually do it. To do any writing or thinking on it or whatever. What keeps the idea going is that one day I’ll want to get back to it and I won’t have all this pain and fear and other negative stuff attached to it when I do, even if it really does take years to come back. It’s never really permanent no matter how my brain likes to fool me lol
🍭 why did you start writing? Originally it was an assignment a teacher gave me back in second? grade lol but eventually I just had too much fun getting the words out. (There’s some notebook out there with past me’s 100 chapter story lmao granted this was back in 2nd-3rd grade so who knows how good it is or how long those chapters are 😂)
And because I also had a lot of thinky thoughts back then, I also thought writing down my thoughts, feelings, and things like that were important and why I’ve basically journaled like 90% of my life handwritten. Haven’t really stopped, and when I got into writing fic it was just like “oh I can imagine scenarios with characters I like???”
Simple motives but it never really leaves you lol
💎 why is writing important to you? At this point, I’ve done writing practically my entire life, and it’s an important part of who I am. But also being able to journal and write down thoughts and feelings has been good and therapeutic to me but also this tangible thing to be like, I’m here, I existed, that was important enough. Being able to express myself and get all these feelings out and connect through word is indescribable how much it’s worth is to me.
🤲 what do YOU get out of writing? I guess this is a bit tied to the other questions but I get a lot. Like yeah, a snapshot of how I feel, or able to process emotions I was feeling, but also being able to have a voice — especially when I’m feeling like I don’t have one or I’m being silenced (however temporarily). But with with writing poetry or songs or stories, there’s something there at the end of it and it’s like I did that, that’s me! And maybe I got enjoyment or whatever in the process. But it’s fun seeing how people react and connect to the thing I did.

i absolutely love unique tags, and i am desperate to know more about yours 😵💫🤲 you mentioned having multiple tags for sam and now for dean. how did you choose them, where did they come from (poems, books, movies, quotes), do you keep a running list to remember them, and which ones are your favorites?
i too adore fancy/unique tags!!! ahhh i apologize if i don't make any sense at all. i don't do meta 😭 i am just. here.
i choose tags based on how its meaning is close to the character. honestly idk what i'm doing, i just venture through poems and songs and even other people's samcore / deancore tags until i go insane. so!
#armed to the teeth but can't make me go to war
from family happiness by the mountain goats (albeit tweaked a little). i stopped using it as much, but it's one of my favorites <3 it's really the most samcoded lyric out of the whole thing, so i ran with it! found it while i was making my sam playlist, which i'm thinking about remaking
#give wings to a stone
from no shade in the shadow of a cross by sufjan stevens! two lyrics from that song are tragically sam coded. </3 this tag is starting to become my general sam tag, but idk. i might need something else. my most favorite :")
#a dark prediction
i don't remember where i got it from ;; maybe i made it up? but it's about how sam feels this overwhelming sense of uncleanness and not feeling pure. the inevitability of something Awful that's going to happen. something like that. <3
#at the altar of god
i made this one up i think? but it's about sam and his faith. idk, it's just very striking. best sam + faith/sainthood tag i could think of. religious trauma and sainthood for this boy forever ^_^
#sacrificial lamb for slaughter
from memory. 🥴 pretty self-explained! second tag related to sam's faith. the jesus parallels...he's the lamb of god!!!!
#only the shadow of a cross
also from no shade in the shadow of the cross by sufjan stevens! THIRD tag related to sam's faith ffs. sam is crucified? oh that's just a normal sunday let's carry on. fav tag as well
#body of proof
i'm not sure where's this originally from, but i took it from the title of THE sam & autonomy fic by askance (doomscountry). if you haven't read it, then do so now!!! altered my psyche. but please, obv, mind the tags. it touches on highly sensitive topics. the body of proof ... the proof of various violations and the lack of autonomy. God.
#bloody and bloodstained
i got it from a post but i LOST IT FFS. basically demon blood addict!sam. i don't really like it jgjfjvjfv it's my favorite arc of him and he deserves something Better
#nothing scares me anymore
direct quote from the show! this tag is about soulless!sam. something about this line struck me so hard. and the way he says it ... idk, it's my most favorite soulless!sam scenes ever.
#they're purifying me
direct quote from the show. obv trials era!sam. i'm thinking about finding another tag for him but argehrghfh. it makes it easier for me to find contents i reblogged of trials!sam.
#he just has strange vibes sometimes
direct quote from the show. psychic!sam!!! thinking about dropping this tag though </3 but he do be having weird vibes
now, off to dean (two tags...sad.)
#god bore you hungry
from belovéd by yves olade. it also applies to sam, actually, but my boy has nothing so </3
#your inside is on your outside
from covet by basement! PLEASE LISTEN TO THAT SONG. it's so samdean coded!!!! but yeah, this lyric is CRITICALLY early seasons dean. love my vulnerable boy who bares his beating heart out to everybody <3 haven't used it yet, but it's my most favorite tag of his so far.
as for me keeping a list, no, i absolutely do not! if i forgot about them or lost them then i'm fucked! i make up new ones! this is a matter of survival! (jk i do lolol)
also, i myself absolutely adore your own tags, so seeing your ask shocked me vjrjfnjejdf
thank you so much for the ask 🍯 ilysm <333 i'm sorry that it took this long ;__; hope this was satisfactory!

For the writing asks!!
🎙️which one of your fics would you like someone to make a pod-fic of?
🤲what do YOU get out of writing?
💌share something with us about an up-and-coming work (WIP) that has you excited!
🎙️- okay this is genuinely really hard, because I don’t tend to think of my fics being read out loud?? like, I try to read stuff out loud to myself when I'm editing sometimes, and I just go “no??? put that back in the head pls” but, I think my statement fic Statement of Love might be fun, because I did write it trying envision how it would sound
🤲 - sometimes, a soul-deep catharsis. sometimes, my blorbo gets a nap and a hug lol
💌 - OKAY IM SO EXCITED GENUINELY FOR THIS, because this song (check it out in a cappella too, which I'm currently obsessed with) has been stuck in my head for weeks and the only way I can seem to get songs out of my head is if I write fics for them. And this one is turning out to be more soul-wrenching than I’d intended, but I’m really enjoying the process
Martin's struggling.
He has been since they arrived…wherever they are now. They arrived alone, Jon barely alive from the knife Martin had shoved into his chest, with no direction or help or support.
While Jon was healing and Martin was scraping together their lives through lies and obfuscation, he could pretend he was fine, ignore the aching hollow in his chest, drag his eyes open every morning when he'd rather sleep through it all.
Their lives are stable now, and Martin is falling into an emptiness unlike anything he'd ever experienced.
In their original world, he'd fought bouts of overwhelming sadness and the literal manifestation of loneliness. Here, where no signs of the Fears have been found, he's only fighting himself.
Feel free to look at the list and send me an ask!!

Character Name Meanings
i was tagged by the lovely @natesofrellis! ty💕
i love how everyone has like fancy real meanings behind the names of their ocs like word meaning and stuff and im here like heheh yeehaw heheheh girl is boy? heheheh name sound pretty, good enough
alright i so let’s start, this is gonna be long lmfao cuz i can’t resist but do all of them TwT
The name Veronique is girl's name of French, Greek origin meaning "true image". The name Ronnie is both a boy's name and a girl's name meaning "she who brings victory; true image".
I always loved gender neutral names and the idea of “opposite gendre” names for a lack of better terms. Like for example naming a boy Adelaide (Ada for short) or Eloise (El for short) or for a girl, Luca or Elliot. And seeing as any character I create, the world is literally my oyster, I can do whatever I want hahaha. This kind of ends up being a theme for a few of my ocs. They’ll probably have say a feminine name (being a girl) but their nickname will be more androgynous or gender neutral. Ronnie for example, short for Véronique. I went with Véronique because seeing how Ronnie was quite the self insert when I was making her, literally everything about her is inspired and based off me. Her looks, her ethnicity and race, personality. But I didn’t want to give her my name cuz well I don’t care much for my name lol. So I went with the next best thing, the name that I would’ve been given if I wasn’t named what I was, the second choice if you will: Véronique.
I also knew damn well that Véronique is a long name and I can’t possibly be saying her full name all the time lol. Plus it’s french, I have much too many years of experience with people have difficulty saying or reading my name properly and well I didn’t want that for her even if she is fictional lol. And personally I always wanted nicknames, my name’s three syllables yet I’ve never been given a nickname by anyone really, I’m always just the same 1 name always which bores me considering no one besides my parents and myself say it correctly ahaha. So I knew I wanted to give her a nickname, cuz if she’s basically me, I’d think she’d have the same views about her name. How many non french speakers can pronounce a french r and not be intimidated by an accent😅. Now taking the whole gender neutral thing into account, I didn’t want to go Véro, which is the typical nickname for her name cuz well it’s still difficult, so I experimented and found myself really liking the name Ronnie. Sure enough Ronnie worked for the her so I settled with it, and I still love it lol. (I also took inspiration of the name “Ronnie” from Ronnie Radke from Falling In Reverse lol I like their music)
Kana is inspired by me giving her a half asian background, I guess this last name makes her Japanese haha. Like I said I she’s very much me, half French, half Asian. Thinking about her last name, I always loved the Japanese culture, I’m an anime indulger, I love Japanese names. And at the time I was stuck between whether to name her first name Véronique (Ronnie) or Kana, and for a time her name would switch from Ronnie to Kana a lot. But I could never think of a last name. So it dawned on me that I can give her both the names I wanted to, my slow small brain just didn’t catch on very fast the Ronnie still needed a last name hahaha. Kana is also inspired by one of my favourite anime’s Fruit’s Basket (specifically the 2001 version, I am biased towards that version for nostalgic reasons🥲🤲💕), and my favourite character in the show Hatori. And Kana was the name of his wife and well me being a Hatori simp I was like “um I wanna be his wife??🤨🤨🤚🤚” lmfao
Combination of Anna and Belle or French form of Amabel. The name Annabelle is girl's name of French origin meaning "loving".
1000% stole the inspiration of her name from the pirate Anne Bonny because I’m obsessed with Uncharted (especially uncharted 4, for reasons…*looks at sam and rafe*…….reasons..) I was also visiting family in Calgary at the time of Stampede and well yeehaw cowtown lead to me rewatching Yellowstone for the spirit and I fucking love that show so much. Fell back in love with the wrangler Ryan from that show HAHAHA and decided fuck it I’m making another cowboy oc who will double as an RDR oc. But she goes by Annabelle Jones for RDR, nickname Elle. Idk why I just thought Elle was a cute and pretty name and also I had too many cowboy name ideas for Annie’s last name that I had left over. Deciding I’d change her last name to Jones and also change the nickname. My godmother and I were looking at cowgirl names after we went to stampede the first night to watch barrel racers being like “ok we gotta give ourself cowgirl names now” and so we thought about it. I settled on Lucky Annabelle Bonnie (as i said inspired by anne bonny but then it was also encouraged after I saw a “what’s your cowgirl name” generator thing that had both the names bonnie and annabelle on it and I was like well perfect, imma do that). And then proceeded to make an oc and though hey, in spirit of yeehaw, why don’t I go ahead and make my long awaited RDR and Yellowstone oc lol
The name Persephone is girl's name of Greek origin “Bringer of Death”
I always loved Persephone, her character, her story, her power and everything about her. And I also loved her name, I think it’s one of the prettiest names out there. When choosing Seph’s name I just kinda went into my mind’s collections of names that I love to pick out which name I could give her lol. Landed on Persephone because I always wanted a character named Persephone and then of course I had to give her a nickname. I love odd names, unique ones, ones you don’t really go for if you were to be picking nicknames yenno? Honestly now that I think about it I feel like Seph is probably the go to nickname for Persephone but I’d never heard it be used before so I thought it was cute, and not well known. But it was easy enough to pronounce, not long like if I were to have gone with Sephone which was one more syllable, have I mentioned I’m lazy? Seph just sounded cute and I hadn’t heard it before so I was like bingo that’s the one. Wilde comes from the idea of uncharted as a whole lol, they’re always out in the wild yenno? Adventuring, treasure hunting in unknown places. Jungles, forests, mountains, oceans. So I thought the name Wilde would be cute, and considering it is in fact a name, it worked out lol. I also wanted a name that sounded good with Sam Drake’s but that’s besides the point👀
The name Persimmon is girl's name meaning "a dry fruit".
Redraven I found on some dnd name generator that I thought fit her perfectly considering she’s a bright dark red ginger lol and sounded pretty with her first name. Persimmon I chose cuz I knew I didn’t want anything basic or boring lol I wanted a name that wasn’t usually found to be a name. A word that if not introduced as someone’s name, you’d think it’s not supposed to be a name. And well a persimmon is the colour orange, and she’s a ginger, so two and two together lol. And I love persimmons, they’re sweet and taste good so I was like lemme give this sweet name to a woman who has a secret sweet and soft side. And again the whole “androgynous/gender neutral name/giving a girl a boys name” ordeal with her nickname. I thought about going with Monnie, but it felt too feminine lol and I wanted something less so. Also Monnie sounds like Ronnie and I was like well I’m not creative am I AHAHAHA. So I went to the other half of the name and settled for Persi. I loved the way it sounded, I felt it fit her perfectly. And well it definitely fit the “you hear this name and think it’s a boy? HAH WRONG this character is actually a woman, who woulda thunk” motif.
that was a lot lol oops ^^ i tag anyone who wants to share the story of their oc!

💞 🕯️ 💎
Hello! Thank you for the ask!
💞 is answered here!
🕯️was there a fic that was really hard on you to write, or took you to a place you didn't think it would take you?
Some of the darker fics are/were difficult to post. Like, should I have pulled back (yes), what was I doing to poor Law, what did it say about me? etc. But with support of some far more experienced fanfic writer friends, I managed to assess that a little less subjectively and came to make my piece, but it's still nerve-wracking when those fics are newly published.
Yeah, with long fics, I think the characters will let you meander and take them into all kinds of terrain and scenarios, and things can slot together really well, and I'm a vague outliner once I've got about 8 chapters into a long fic, and I often have the end chapter done, so yeah, anything can happen along the journey. Maybe the unexpected place was Dark Marco sleeping with Doflamingo in one of those dark fics! (not the main focus of the fic, btw).
💎why is writing important to you?
It allows me to express myself in ways I maybe couldn't when younger. For me, I think it's like someone who is good at soccer often works to become a better soccer player, and that might be their talent, and they enjoy learning about it, honing it, and strengthening it.
I think if you have a talent that doesn't destroy you (and I think a a lot of the arts can only because I think a lot of people are initially very good at their craft or attached to it because it allowed them to communicate thoughts and feelings that they maybe didn't have voice for when younger, and there is often no overt awareness of this), but if you have that talent and it doesn't cause you unhealthy pain, use it (if you want to. Don't if you don't want to).
However, regarding the communication aspect, it's a good idea to learn other ways of communicating when older, because the art cannot always speak for the person. Yeah, so maybe it was intrinsic to my growth and personality when younger. Regarding fanfiction, it doesn't have as much pressure as other writing forms, so I can still really enjoy writing, and get some insta-feedback, that you don't usually get in the original field, and yeah, still write when I'm not writing in other fields, and totally indulge myself. Maybe fanfiction writing has become too important and too all-consuming. Arghhh...
I’ve answered ✨ 💫 📡 , 🤲 , 🌈 , ☯️ , 🎈💥 🎀 🌻💌 💝 🌿🤍💞 🪄 🕯️ 💎 The ask is here if anyone else wants to ask! Although I think that means only 8 icons are left, and I'm just as happy to leave it here. Thank you so much for the ask(s)!!!

for the writer asks: ✨🌈🌿🎉🪄🤲💌?
✨ What's a fic you've posted you wish you could breathe life into again and have people talking about it? (or simply a fic you wish got more credit)
Honestly I've never really had 'popular' fic (the closest I got was just that I was one of the first Third Life Scarian smut writers out there, and because I am not fourteen, my smut isn't Actually Horrible) so this is less a 'let's circle back' and more 'give me More Attention On These' and that's obviously Turnabout NaNoWriMo. Obviously. I want everyone to read it.
🌈 is there a fic that you worked *really fucking hard on* that no one would ever know? maybe a scene/theme you struggled with?
Do you want to see the spreadsheet work for Soov/ Saint Seiya: Sing Upon the Midnight Hour? No, of course not, but just because I didn't even get 8k into it doesn't mean I haven't suffered. One of these days I'm gonna go back and write the entire fucking thing, and it will be at least 250k, and I'll be proud of myself.
🌿 how does creating make you feel?
Satisfied! I like having a finished product I can brag about and reread, and now is no longer in my brain taking up space. Also accomplished, on a personal level - I write for me, my fiance, my dick, my friends, and the rest of the world in that order. So I'm proud of myself.
🎉 how often do you celebrate completing & posting a work? how often do you give yourself the credit/validation that you seek from others when you post? (if you don't, you should!)
I go back and reread my own completed, finished works when I want to. When I'm done answering this, I'm gonna go back and reread Streets of Gold. That's enough for me, because I'm still satisfied with my own ability to express and tell the stories correctly.
🪄 what is your post-writing/sharing aftercare? How do you take care of yourself or celebrate yourself when you've finished a fic?
[comic originally from here, by @/kitten-kin]
And then I go to bed. :p
🤲 what do YOU get out of writing?
Another thimble of water from this fucking ocean that is Sagiverse, moved from my head to the world. I also usually discover more about the world by the time I'm done writing, and I have offloaded it onto the page and now I can do more writing. I love it.
💌 share something with us about an up-and-coming work (WIP) that has you excited!
Camp's coming up in less than a week. Theoretically, the plan was Mangoes / Turnabout Metamorphosis, but Edgeworth Sr Week is definitely going to be week 1 of Camp. So honestly, I'm excited for Camp, and I have no idea what's going to happen.
Ideally, I just wanna get some of the wips out of my spreadsheet. I want them Done, goddamnit. Also ideally, I want to do one whole casefic. I know I can do it, I just gotta sit down and work it out somehow. We'll see how things go!
[ask game here!]
