🎤°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°☁️°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°🎤

You let out a sigh as you got into your car. It had been a long day in the studio, recording new songs for your latest album. Your throat hurt, but you were happy with the progress you had made today. Starting the car, you made your way home to the apartment you shared with your boyfriend, Jason.

It was his birthday soon, and you'd planned a little surprise, not only for him but for your fans as well. You had written him a song, one that would be on your newest record. You smiled only thinking about it, you couldn't wait to pull off this surprise.

The show you were performing tomorrow in Gotham was no ordinary one. You'd called it the "Jazz on Special", which was just a a play on Jason. Your lovely, yet sometimes a little daft lover had not gotten the hint. Good.

He always attended your concerts, watching from backstage, giving his support. The moment you stepped off stage, he was immediately one you, showering you in compliments and kisses, telling you how proud he was of you.

So you figured this was the least you could do to show your appreciation for him. You wanted the whole world to know how much he actually meant to you, scream it into the crowds. So that's excatly what you were going to do.

Unlocking your apartment door, you stepped in, dropping your keys in the little dish right by the entrance. You could hear footsteps the minute the door closed. Jason came towards you, with a big smile and open arms. "How was your session today, Baby?" He asked, wrapping you in his strong and comforting arms. You snaked your arms around his waist and hid your face against his chest. "Was really good. My throat is sore though, I need some tea." You mumbled, letting a content sigh to be in his arms. He placed a kiss to the top of your head.

"I'll make you some, got get comfy, okay?" He said softly, stroking your hair. "Thanks, Jay," you replied, slipping from his embrace with smile. You went to put on a change of clothes. You did wear comfortable clothes to your recording sessions, but you had to dress it up at least little bit with some jewelry. It probably wouldn't be the best look to show up to work in your kitty PJs.

After having changed into said kitty PJs, you plopped down on the couch next to Jason and your cat, Nyx. She was a black stray with a white streak on her forehead. You'd picked her up from a local animal shelter, you just couldn't resist her cute little white paws that made her look like she wore socks and the fact that she matched Jason. It was supposed to be his Christmas gift one year, but you just couldn't keep her to yourself.

Although you got her for Jason, he insisted you name her, his reasoning being that she got her looks from dad so her name should be from mom. And yes, you do treat her like your child. You named her Nyx, after the greek goddess. She was the first, daughter of Chaos, night incarnate. You thought that it fit, with Jason being the protector of Gothams street at night. And in a way, you were grateful to her, to Mother Night, for holding Jason safely in her dark yet loving embrace.

"Nyxieeee!! There you are my sweet girl! I missed you SO much, yes I did," you beamed in a high pitched baby voice, scratching her face. You stole her off Jason's lap, making him huff. Taking her into your arms, you placed overly dramatic kisses on her tiny head. She didn't seem to mind, though, rubbing her cheeks against your hand and purring. Jason's face softened at the sight.

You looked so precious like this, the cat curled up in your arms as you cooed at her. You'd be a little embarrassed about your habit of talking to animals in a baby voice if Jason too, wasn't guilty of it as well. He put an arm around your shoulder, pulling you close to him. "You know, technically that's my cat," he said with a smirk on his face. You shot him a glare.

"Technically, you wouldn't have her without me and you asked me to be her mom. She's my child too, Jason!" You responded playfully. He threw his head back, laughing. "I guess she is, huh. Thank you for being the mother of my furrbaby." He sighed, pressing a kiss to the top of your head. "It's my absolute pleasure, baby."

You were getting sleepy, your eyes unvoluntarily fluttering shut ever so often. Nyx was curled up on your lap, peacefully snoozing away while Jason was intently watching whatever was playing on the TV. You took a sip of the tea Jason had so lovingly prepared for you. Setting the mug back down on the coffee table, your gaze shortly fell on Nyx and- wait

You had to do a double take. She had one of her small paws reached out towards Jason who was gently holding it and without paying much mind, softly stroking his thumb over it. Your heart was about to explode. Your lips were slightly parted and your eyes were wide, looking at Jason completely bewildered. He noticed your stare, turning his head towards you with furrowed brows.

"What's wrong, sweetheart?" He asked, the question slightly muffled by the hand that was supporting his head. "That's the cutest fucking thing I've ever seen," you mumbled, the shock pretty evident in your voice as you gestured to his huge hand that was ever so softly caressing Nyx's comparably tiny paw. His eyes softened.

"It is, isn't it? The first time she did it I was practically shaking from excitement," he laughed, the sound rumbling through his chest. Your brows shot together. "What do you mean 'the first time'?! Has she done this before? AND YOU NEVER TOLD ME?!" You yelled in disbelief. How dare he keep something so precious from you.

"Sorry, Baby."

"Unbelievable."

Today was the day. The day you would pour your heart out in front of Gotham. To say you were nervous would be an understatement. The blood in your veins was at boiling point and you were seconds away from a panic attack. Fiddling with the two colorful paper rings you had made for today, you took a deep breath, trying to calm your nerves. This was fine. You were fine. You've literally done this hundreds of times. But would Jason like it? God, you hoped he would.

Before you could overthink more, you heard your cue through your earpiece and it was showtime.

The 'normal' part of the concert went well, you performed some of your best songs, the crowd was amazing and it was overall an incredible night. You'd talked to your fans a little on stage between songs, receiving some nice little gifts here and there. Flowers, plushies as well as a bra was thrown on stage. Well that was a first. Not that you complained, you were rather flattered, actually.

It was nice to know that you had the ladies on your side. Jason, who was watching from backstage, almost keeled over with laughter when he saw you pick up the under garment, completely bewildered. He would never let you live this down.

"Alright, Gotham," you said breathlessly, "before our lovely night comes to an unfortunate end, I have prepared a little something. Not only for you, but also for my special someone, who might or might not be here today," cheering could be heard from the audience as you fixed your earpiece and chuckled breathlessly into the microphone.

Singing and jumping around stage sure was a work out.

"This is a song I've not shared publicly, as it is from my new album, but I thought I'd make a little exception for all of you and at the same time be the best girlfriend and make the coolest birthday present ever!" You laughed. The moment you mentioned that it was a new song the crowd absolutely lost their shit. You don't think any of your concerts have ever been this loud. Your eardrums nearly burst at the sheer volume of teenage girls screaming their souls out.

"Here's Paper rings. This is for you, Jason." You said with a smile on your face. The music started playing and it's like all your worries faded away. You'd been waiting for this moment for weeks, to finally share this song and your love for Jason. As you sang the lyrics, a compilation of cute and silly pictures of you and Jason ran over the huge screen behind you. Some were of you and Jason in a face mask, others were of Jason cuddling with Nyx. You occasionally glanced over to Jason who was doing his best to hold back his tears with the biggest smile on his face. Your heart swelled at the sight.

With the last bit of music fading out, you finished the song and bowed. The picture remaining on the screen was of you and Jason kissing with a sunset in the background. A heart was drawn around it. The minute the last words left your lips, Jason was storming on stage, showering you in kisses. He held you tightly against him, peppering kisses all over your face. His actions made you giggle into the microphone and the crowd went wild. The security guards were really struggling by this point.

You grabbed Jason's hand and slipped one of the two paper rings on his finger, pulling him in for a sweet kiss. The dam broke. There were happy tears rolling down his cheeks as he continued kissing you. Managing to pull away, you addressed your fans one last time. "Thank you, and Good Night, Gotham!"

You squealed when Jason unexpectedly picked you up bridal style and whisked you off stage, your head thrown back in laughter. It was safe to say you were on the front page of the Gotham Gazette the next day.

Jason was talking his heart out on the way home, talking about how much he loved it and how much he loved you. You were listening patiently, holding his hand while a big smile was plastered on your cheeks.

Now, you found yourself in the familiar spot on the couch, Jason's arms wrapped around you with little Nyx making biscuits on your thigh. "I have one question for you, though," you said, turning your head to Jason. "What is it?" He replied softly.

"How the fuck did you not get the play on your own name?"

"Oh, shut up." He pouted, burying his face in the crook of your neck. You let out a soft laugh.

"I love you too, Baby."

Hii Ana! I hope you're doing well! ♡♡

I'm that lying anon lol (you can call me "Sara"). As you adviced me I am fulfilling myself in my imagination and I could feel my habits changing + also my manifestations "skills" are like 📈📈 I mean I could just assume something and it happens. I'm so shocked. But today I had a dream, where I got my exam results and found out that I "failed" I affirmed in my dream "that's not true I got full marks" then I checked my scores (in my dream) it said I got full marks lol but then I doubted and told myself that I was being delusional it can't be true, even though I saw my desired marks 💀 also in my dream I was feeling guilty of not getting good grades and not able to make my parents proud, I was being so dramatic in my dream lmao but was keept telling myself that "it shall pass too"

Probably I still subconsciously or unconsciously think that I don't deserve it and in the end I'll "fail" even though I AM capable of winning. Also I think the guilt that I have carried for so long is "holding be back".

How do I get over the guilt and trust myself? It physically hurts you know, feeling that I am undeserving.

How the fuck do I get over the guilt and trust myself when manifesting?

Hey Sara,

I totally get where you're coming from. Dreams can sometimes mess with our heads, right? So, you had this dream where you saw your exam results and initially affirmed that you got full marks. That's awesome! But then doubt kicked in, and you started questioning yourself, thinking you were being delusional. And to top it off, you felt guilty about not getting good grades and making your parents proud. It's a lot to deal with, I know.

Here's the thing, Sara. Guilt is a heavy weight to carry, and it's time to let it go. You are absolutely capable of achieving success, and you deserve all the good things that come your way. Trust in yourself, trust in your abilities, and trust that you are worthy of the success you desire.

When those doubts or guilty feelings arise, take a moment to pause and remember your desired outcome. Focus on the vision of achieving full marks and making yourself proud. Let go of any past mistakes or perceived failures. They don't define you. Instead, embrace a mindset of learning and growth.

Don't assign too much meaning to every little thing in the 3D reality. Sometimes, things happen that may seem contradictory or confusing. Instead, shift your attention to the wish fulfilled. Imagine yourself celebrating your success, feeling proud, and making your parents proud too or other way that makes you feel full filled.

Also, we all make mistakes, but that doesn't make us unworthy of success. Be kind to yourself and let go of any judgments or negative self-talk. Replace those thoughts with positive affirmations and beliefs that support your deservingness.

Remember, you have the power to shape your reality. Focus on the outcome you desire and trust that it's already on its way. Release the guilt, trust yourself, and keep persisting in the assumption that you are capable of winning. Trust me, you've got what it takes!

So, let go of the guilt, my friend. It's time to believe in yourself, trust yourself, and embrace the deserving, capable person that you are. Keep your focus on the wish fulfilled, and watch as your reality starts aligning with your positive beliefs and assumptions. You've got this!

NCT 127's group dynamic (tarot reading)

DISCLAIMER: This tarot reading is for entertainment purposes only.

how's their dynamic together?

the empress + 8 of wands (r) + ace of cups (r) + the chariot + judgment

oracle cards: ego / listen + fear / transcendence

their dynamic is very nice! the boys are very fond of each other and take great care of each other as well. I'm visualizing the older ones taking care of the younger members. however, in the workplace, despite having a lot of energy and willingness to work, there are many obstacles here. I think the guys are feeling like they're not working as hard as they used to lately. they feel like they have to wait a long time for the next cb and this prevents them from putting out more music. none of them like to rest too much, as they think they are not doing anything productive. I think the company is so focused on putting out hits that they don't give the members opportunities to put out the kind of music they really want to make. I just heard “I can do better”, so I feel like they don't get a chance to show off all the talent they have and they feel restricted. maybe some of them are a bit tired of the music they make and they don't feel so motivated when it's time to work on a new cb. these guys work really hard and have incredible willpower. they know what they want and seem to understand each other very well when working together. they learned a lot over the years and they continue to learn a lot. some of them may be considering leaving the group and/or starting a solo career.

to improve their relationship a little more, they have to learn to listen to each other and know when it's time to express their ideas. they also have to embrace difficult situations and bravely go through them.

what do they think of each other?

judgment + strength + justice (r) + the empress + 8 of wands

oracle cards: insecurity / confidence + longing / present + repetition / learning

taeil ⇢ he feels that he learned a lot throughout these years, especially during his time as a trainee, and he values that very much. being part of nct fills him with courage and he feels confident with his members. there's a lot of compassion here; he appreciates the members very much. it seems like something happened in the group that made taeil felt that was unfair... I heard "favouritism", so he may find it unfair that some members get more chances than others. he acknowledges that they are all very passionate about their work and have great willpower. taeil thinks they understand each other so well that's easy to make decisions together.

he has to learn that we are all equal and no one is superior or inferior. he should trust his abilities and detach himself from his past. taeil should learn new possibilities and learn from his mistakes.

the star + 2 of wands + the temperance

oracle cards: doubt / certainty + dissatisfaction / purpose + self-repression / discipline

johnny ⇢ he feels that there's a good dynamic in the group. there's balance, peace and a lot of enthusiasm. johnny's always working hard to promote the group at any occasion. he feels that nct still has a great future ahead and is proud to be part of the group. I also feel that his self-esteem is through the roof, especially when it comes to his appearance lmao.

johnny should reinforce his own certainties, his inner voice, his confidence and his wisdom. he should recognize his purposes, decrease self-criticism and flow. he has to learn not to be so disciplined.

the chariot (r) + 9 of swords + 2 of swords

oracle cards: lie / honesty + fear / freedom + hopelessness / integration

taeyong ⇢ he feels that he's losing control in the group and feels threatened by those who want to take his place. there's anxiety and despair here, as he feels that the group is not moving forward. taeyong feels stuck and scared to make hard decisions… I think he's too dependent on the group that he's scared to start his solo career.

he should be honest both with others and with himself. he should stop pretending and connect more with his emotions. taeyong should face his fears with courage and learn to spread his wings. as sad as he feels right now, there is still hope. he has to have faith in himself.

the hierophant + 7 of pentacles (r) + 8 of swords + 10 of wands + 5 of cups

oracle cards: doubt / certainty + submission / service

yuta ⇢ I feel that what I have to say next is not directed specifically at the members, but at the management of the company. yuta feels that his work is not being recognized and I have the feeling that he's not being paid what he deserves. even though he accomplished a lot with nct, yuta may feel like a burden to the group or he may feel frustrated that he's not getting the approval from the company. he already knew this would happen, but he ignored it and now he feels very disappointed and hurt. yuta feels that he doesn't have many opportunities to grow as an artist in SM and he may be thinking of leaving the group or having an hiatus before making a final decision.

yuta has to learn to listen more to his inner voice and trust his wisdom. he also has to put limits on his connections, otherwise he may fall into dependency.

the temperance (r) + 5 of swords (r) + the high priestess (r)

oracle cards: depletion / renewal + reverie / presence

doyoung ⇢ this guy feels there's a lack of balance in the group, as well as a stubborn resentment that arose from the competition and he's tired of dealing with it. even though we know that he's a very mature and straightforward person, I feel that there are times when doyoung represses what he feels. he already knew that certain things were going to happen, but he began to ignore his intuitions.

doyoung has to learn to put effort aside. he did what he could, now he has to use his energy for something else.

the star + 7 of wands (r) + ace of swords + page of pentacles

oracle cards: depletion / renewal

jaehyun ⇢ this made me laugh a little, ngl GHSBFJS this guy feels grateful for all the popularity he has now thanks to the group... especially when it comes to his beauty! there's a great pride here about his appearance lol. however, his confidence gets destroyed when he spends time with the members. he may be considering leaving the group or having an hiatus and start doing other things on his own. jaehyun may feel threatened in some way as there's a constant battle to defend himself. his level of intelligence is such that he can use it both to improve his group's reputation or to worsen it 💀 I feel like jaehyun knows what he wants and one way or another he always comes out on top. he has many dreams that he wants to fulfill and it seems that he's working on something new that fills him with joy and will bring him a lot of money.

jaehyun has to stop trying to be someone else and put his energy into something else.

5 of swords (r) + the sun + 3 of swords

oracle cards: intolerance/ agreement + depletion / renewal + lack of control / measure

jungwoo ⇢ there's a kind of resentment in this spread. there may have been some kind of competition between him and other members or one in particular, but now jungwoo wants to overcome all that. he feels happy to belong to nct, since he achieved many things. this guy is always positive, even when things aren't working out in his favor. I have the feeling that jungwoo tries to ignore the problems and that accumulation makes him feel a bit disturbed. he may feel very lonely sometimes... even rejected :( there's an intense suffering here, but I feel it's more internal than external. what do I mean by this? that everything jungwoo feels is not what is really happening. he interprets things in one way, when what really happens is not that way. there's also a kind of betrayal here... especially with one of the members could it be jaehyun? if you read my jaehyun and jungwoo dynamic/compatibility reading you'll understand

jungwoo has to learn to practice tolerance both with himself and with others. he should open his heart and allow himself to be surprised by others, but he also has to learn to set some limits in his relationships. he has to work on his anger more and shouldn't be afraid of expressing what he really feels.

queen of wands + 6 of wands + king of wands + 10 of swords (r)

oracle cards: resignation / participation + self-repression / discipline + suggestion / protection

mark ⇢ he's very happy with the group. this little man always works hard and has an admirable determination. he's a natural leader and his courage is highly admired by the members. mark achieved many things thanks to the group and feels that the public recognition he has is due to the hard work of all the members. I think that the members are very inspired by his brave and passionate spirit. even in the hardest of challenges, this guy always keeps going and doesn't let anything or anyone stop him. it seems that there was a kind of betrayal in the group that was inevitable to happen, but mark is recovering from that... what's more, I think he even saw it coming.

mark has to stop being so self-critical and let things flow. he has to understand that even though discipline works, he doesn't have to use it all the time. he has to adapt to changes and not pay so much attention to what others say about him.

the hermit (r) + strength + knight of wands + 5 of swords (r) + 2 of wands

oracle cards: self-repression / discipline + longing / present + fear / transcendence

haechan ⇢ at first, hyuck felt lonely and lost in the group, and it may have been hard for him to connect with the members... but it seems that he had to resolve internal issues first in order to connect with others. haechan feels confident when he spends time with the boys; he feels brave and powerful. there's an enormous affection here that seems mutual. I feel a very good energy, I have a great feeling of companionship and genuine concern for each other. hyuck loves experiencing new adventures with the boys and he considers everyone to be very ambitious, including himself. however, it seems that he in particular can become unrealistic and impulsive. it seems that there was/is something like a conflict or a battle of egos between him and other members, where even though they all trained hard to debut, there's still fierce competition. haechan is exhausted from that situation, btw. thanks to this sub unit, this boy was able to discover what kind of artist he wants to be and he believes that with 127 he can fulfill all his dreams.

to improve the relationship he has with the members, haechan has to embrace difficult situations to face them with courage, be more disciplined and find a way to make his ideas more flexible, reduce self-criticism and flow. he also has to say goodbye to the past and undertake new things with joy.

Last Lines Tag

Thank you to the wonderful @argisthebulwark for the tag! I'm also in-between about 4 WIPs at the moment so I'm going to pluck the best suited quotes from a variety of them. Most fic writers I know on here have already been tagged, so I'm going to leave this as an open invitation - hop on this tag if you haven't had a chance yet!

A line from your fic that made you laugh (from Death and Glory) Somehow Florentius made it to the dining table and collapsed onto a bench, folding his arms on the softly worn wood and dropping his aching head to their embrace. “You look like shit.” “You know, I always thought there must be some reason Breton hospitality was so famed across Tamriel.” Florentius lifted his head and tried and failed miserably to scowl at his greeter. Across the table Celann smiled, wry and exasperated and fond all at once.

A line from your fic that made you sad (from A New Home) “You were only a child.” Ysolda couldn’t help it; looking at her sweet, kind, and bewildered wife all she could see was the stories she’d already heard of a young elf taught in everything from the way she’d been named, what she’d been permitted to eat, the restriction of her education and now to where she slept that she would never truly be valued as much as the children by blood. Ysolda hadn’t even realised that tears were pricking at her eyes until Daefi was suddenly before her, looking more distressed than ever as she cupped her wife’s face in her gentle, scarred hands.

A line from your fic you're proud of (from Dear Revyn. The line where I felt I'd finally nailed Ryesandeii's voice and eventual motivation) And so I am preparing myself to face this World-Eater. If all goes well he shall never return. Whether I shall is unclear to me. But I have run from my past and my fears for too long, and if there is even the slightest of chance that I may prevent the world from meeting a terrible end then even my meagre effort must suffice.

A line from your fic you think could've been better (from Dear Revyn - I think I actually cut this line from the published version. I wanted to show Ryesandeii not wanting Revyn to hold onto him if it was obvious he'd died, but it just ended up feeling too clunky) I can do little more but apologise for my persistent cowardice, if no longer in an apparent heroic destiny than in relationships, that I never could summon these word whilst with you. (...) In all irony however if this declaration pleases you I beg you again to forget it, in the event it becomes evident I have lost my life, as no thing as petty as my ghost should make an obstacle to your wonderful life.

A line from your fic that makes you want to punch a character (from Dear Ryesandeii. There's a reason I've installed a mod to make this fucker unessential.) “What d’you think you’re doing, grey-skin?” Rolff Stone-Fist spat in his face, one fist grabbing the front of Revyn’s shirt while the other came down hard. White-hot pain exploded on Revyn’s cheekbone and stars popped in his vision. Like some sickly, twisted, drunken wolf Stone-Fist was snarling. “Ought to teach you a lesson you won’t forget…”

A line from your fic that makes you go 'aww' (from Death and Glory. This bit is actually a flashback, Isran doesn't realise he's been pining for years lmao) The two sat in silence for a few more seconds before Florentius lowered his hands where they had been risen in prayer and smiled at Isran again, the sight taking his breath away more than the sunset ever could. “And besides, isn’t it beautiful?” Isran wasn’t looking at the sky. “Yes.”

A line from your fic that's full of symbolism (from Dear Ryesandeii) It had been weeks since Revyn received the letter, and yet he still turned it over in his hands. The yellowing page was curling at the edges now and the ink softly smudging, wearing down with each press of the Dunmer’s fingers whenever it wasn’t kept in the inner pocket of his jacket, close to his heart. He opened it several times a day if not more, tracing his narrow fingers over the halting, spider-like lettering as if doing so could summon its author.

A line from your fic that contains an easter egg (from Death and Glory) "Yes of course, and you are...?" Florentius trailed off, ensuring the smile stayed resolutely on his face as his gaze fell to the weapons at their sides. They were unlike any he'd seen before in Skyrim or Cyrodill, gleaming with a shimmer far more precious than steel or iron could achieve. "The Silver Hand!" The soldier on the left declared. Beneath the helm he wore his face was still chubby with youth and his heavily-accented voice fierce with adrenaline. "We just attacked Jorvas-" "We have just dealt a serious blow to the werewolf scourge in this land." The leader interrupted, cutting a stare like daggers towards his younger companion before looking back to Florentius. "And we intended to continue doing so. Did you see where that beast went?"

A line from your fic that's shocking (from Death and Glory.) But you don’t care enough, do you?” His voice had fallen from uncontrolled fury to a horribly hollow edge Isran recognised with the numb realisation that he had gone too far. Again. “You just want everyone to be as paranoid, as scared, as isolated as you are, and you drive everyone who’s ever cared about you away. If you keep up this way you will die as alone and as friendless as you’re determined to live, and I certainly won’t come back to bury you.” (Isran how much have you fucked up to the point a priest of Arkay refuses to bury you)

A line from your fic you want to talk about more (from Death and Glory) "It all happened before I knew you." Florentius sighed. "It was... a long time ago, and it would be easy to blame it on that, say I was young, say I was scared. Whatever it was, I… I ran away. I shoved my connection to Arkay deep down in my mind, snuck out from the priory at night, stole a horse from my grandfather’s stables and I ran.” Isran leant back, his mind reeling. "Why were you scared?" he ventured. Florentius chuckled, the sound bitter and somewhat hollow but it was better than nothing. “Let’s see. I was thirteen years old with the god of death talking in my head, Isran, you take a guess. I suppose I was beginning to realise what it, what…all of this,” he gestured loosely around his head, “would mean for the rest of my life. For a life being close to death itself, being exposed to people at their most vulnerable and hurtful, being a target for those who see Arkay's realm as a challenge. For a life of being called a madman, amongst other things." (ugh I could talk for hours at how fascinating Florentius is, and how it must have been for him to live with this connection to Arkay from a young age, knowing as he grew up that whatever gifts it brought him it would also create an irreversible distance from others.)

Hi! Going to ask 7, 29, 36.

(btw finished Along Each Garden Wall recently and I'm still thinking about it, it was so good.)

hi!! ahh thank you; i'm so happy you enjoyed it!

okay i may have wound up accidentally napping anyway lmao so i'm excited to answer these now!!

7. Your favourite ao3 tag

lmao god okay, the disclaimer here is that i genuinely hate tagging and find it very stressful/am bad at it. that being said: i love Getting Back Together. such a good tag, always hits, love to write it or even just elements of it.

29. What's the hardest thing about writing?

hmmm having time/energy for it? i have a job that requires a lot of social energy, even working from home. it's like 70% meetings, which is demanding even as an extrovert, on top of hanging out with friends outside of work. writing is then sort of a solitary activity by contrast (even though i honestly prefer it to be more social/love to talk about writing, obvs) and i sometimes feel like i barely have energy left for it!

36. How do you come up with fic titles? What's the one you're most proud of?

90% of the time there's a song or poem that's gone heavily into my inspo process, and i will usually borrow a line or the title of the piece for the fic! 10% of the time it's just something made up that fits. for drarry, i really do like how Close Behind fits for a few different reasons! overall, though, Contrapositive was imo my best hockey fic and the title was made up and worked super well, so that one too. i think i just like fic titles that could also be good novel titles tbh, as much as i embrace titles that are very fanfic too.

ask me writing asks!!!

be that as it May

hellooo, friends foes and strangers alike! using this title for a tumblr post for second time running and i'm actually early by one day (it's May 30th, so yep) genuinely proud of myself :) hahahaha

well, this post i think it's gonna be a monthly-journal-and-a-serious-note one... a word vomit guaranteed, so apologies in advance and bear with me. May was yet another rollercoaster but in another context i can't disclose yet (and not sure when i can let the secret out in the open or confirm/deny the rumors lol but for 2nd time: it’s not me getting engaged ok 🤣 i don’t even have anyone in mind) but yeah the highlight: not getting coldplay Jakarta ticket.

i'm so damn livid at so many things like 😭😭😭😭😭 first of all the scalpers deliberately buying the tickets just so they can resell it in exorbitant prices, the FOMO crowd for taking my spot as an actual coldplay fan (though i'm not nearly as mad as i am at the scalpers because well, they just want to see the band that i also happen to love), and the coldplay management team for planning a stupid Asia/Oceania leg tour route that doesn't make sense (who the hell decided to go for only a day at Jakarta then straight to Perth which is miles away and then back to Malaysia?)

anyways i'm counting on people suddenly having other events or important business to attend to so there will be tickets i can buy secondhand. not going to appease scalpers by panic buying i want to see them suffer a huge loss and will be rendered to resort selling it half price on d-day or something. i feel like i deserve the tickets so bad the concert day is literally eleven days before my birthday in November 😭 i know i can make it happen i WILL see my band like i did last time!!! 😤

the remainder of May is just me working on the project, preparing stuffs and literally running all over Jakarta to get things done, me overthinking, nothing new (read: clowning as always) not trying to be cryptic but just like coldplay said in Speed of Sound: "every chance that you get is the chance you seize." wish me luck, pals!

my Brisbane based cousin who's going to get married in August sent us the fabric needed to make the outfit for the special day and i'm getting even more hyped up!!! it's not me who's going to say my vows and tie my life to the other half of my soul but i'm super happy. can't wait for Bandung trip 2.0 yippeee

okay here we're entering the serious note territory... for once, for so long, i'm letting myself to just let go of the words. kinda sure some of you have probably caught on, or thought i'm a daft dimbo for this but yes: it's about him. on May 25th, two years ago i spoke to him for the very last time. full reassurance from my part to say that no, it's not about me not being able to move on or blah blah blah, it's quite the opposite actually.

writing this down, on here, feels like some sort of purge. it's not in a bad way either, i am glad i can finally talk about it openly, with no sense of remorse or regret or hatred or resentment. right now, after two years of as much space and time given to think and process it through, remembering him and the days that build the very core of memories i still keep in my mind feels like rereading my favorite book.

it's like me and him are just some other characters that i cheer and cherish for, i long and support and yearn for, and the story ends with a nice closure chapter. a complete book. to me personally, it's like reading Harry Potter. such a huge part of my life, yet i'm no longer there.

i no longer stutter or taken aback or get the chills whenever something in the present pulls me back into a particular memory of him. i embrace it with open arms and with a smile on my face. i reread my last letter to him and actually edited it (my editor self is just, you know, being an editor) i'm as unabashed and unbothered to open my old chats with him (i kinda cheated oops sorry if you read this lmao i just never feel the need to delete the chats because let's be fr i don't need to reread it, i still can recall what we talked about just from memory. that's me and my insanely biased brain, ha!) and actually laugh and cringe (mostly on my part, because it was so clear i tried to catch his attention by doing literally everything omg i was so embarrasing 🤣😭😂) (also for disclaimer, i never opened our chatrooms, not until this month, so i also kinda kept my part of the agreement) but it's fun nonetheless. nothing that happened between us will ever tarnish or alter the fact that i was genuinely happy and the joy filled memories will always be there.

it's a bit hilarious how my 'strategy' is to avoid him like a plague. left zero gap for any chance to even get a glimpse of him or his life. basically two years of absolutely nothing of him (except for some weird twist like how his mum and my mum are still members of the same whatsapp group, though they don't interact much) in a glance it does seem like i'm trying to run away from reality, but i swear it's just my way of dealing with problem at hand, since i suppose fourteen years worth of feelings can't be extinguished in a lazy attempt with feeble manner. yet that doesn't mean i'm gonna play pretend and fake an amnesia, i still think about him sometimes. i guess it's just part of being human, with weaknesses and all.

you've probably wondered, yes: i still do love him with all my heart. just in a different way, and for sure, from far away. see what i'm talking about? he's just like an endearing fictional character you have grown to love and will always be with you (yes i'm a huge Potterhead lol) it's platonic, sometimes familial love, just constantly running in the background. i always do that to the people i regard highly in my life, so again, nothing new.

i still count him as one of my selected few best friends though imprudent and tactless he can be because he sometimes is also the voice of reason to my farfetched always anxious self (also because he knows too much of my secrets thanks to me being biased and a pathological overshare-r) if God ever made destiny to make another funny turn, i would've liked us to be an actual, functional, supportive friends. long live the friends!

Nietzsche is right about without forgetting it's quite impossible to live at all, but i digress. if you’ve watched Eternal Sunshine of Spotless Mind, you’ll know what i’m talking about; i guess at some point things just don't have any explanation (yet) of why it happens ever so, you just carry on with it. archiving it somewhere in a vault.

so. even though i know he will never read this... hey you, i just want to say i'm so grateful to have you as friend, though things don't always go smoothly. honored to have been graced by your presence in my life, though just for a limited time as it is. i hope you're always happy, healthy, and loved!

phew, i got super emotional. maybe because it's been two years, i can't believe i managed to stand for what is right this long! (and will continue to do so) i am here from all the things i've gone through :) yet another coldplay quote because i just love this band so much, and i think this song is my song. please read the lyrics as you listen to it, best feeling ever.

it's cathartic, a form of healing, alleviating, to put these, all my feelings, out in the open. this is what i live with and it is my life. i'm content with how everything is going and i think it's all settled now, all good. now full throttle focusing on the project, if things go my way, i'll tell you guys all about it on my July post. see you then! 💙

#alhamdulillah #bismillahirrahmanirrahim #good things are coming our way #:)

hmm yk that might work, i'll prep for that and some comfy pillows + naps lol lia??????? i think the simp gods has descended upon you JUST ACCEPT AND EMBRACE IT /j

i’ll be waiting <3 <3 hhhhh pls i’m so soft for him too i’d give everything to this man jsldsljdlsjdls hehehehe it’s ok sis we can simp together shamelessly there will be no judgemental looks under the roof of our house - we simp and we’re proud of it <3

i think you’d usually call big sisters jiejie??? probably?? at least i call my biological big sister with that (well, a variation of that) hskdjskd i’ve never been called big sister before pls that’s adorable aaaa ///

yes!!! exactly!!!! manifesting ayato for you whenever his next banner comes out 🤞🏻🪷🧋💧

LOL actually never thought of doing that, might try it out once i got hubby on the team 👀

hmmmm i suppose he is quite prince-like. the way he moves in the trailer and throughout the story just looks… elegant. with the arm on the back while he attacks with his sword and all…. lmao i see there are still some traces of simping going on here hehehe /lh

i emailed the support email but they just replied back with ‘sorry we don't accept inbound emails from here pls create support ticket instead thx’. and today they triggered an auto reply on one of the open ticket (which i had from a previous enquiry, not the shadowban issue) saying that they’re swamped with tickets so it will take them a while to get to it…. sigh.

also the name caelin sounds adorable and i wanna squish his cheeks!!! i can’t read his backstory for now cause i haven’t finished enkanomiya lore but he looks adorable and sad(?) and i would pat his head <3

my sincerest apologies, i tend to channel 110% of my simp side when it comes to sir kamisato ayato *cough* (/lh) we have come so far, rin jie... remember when you used to be in denial when it comes to a man with pretty amber eyes and a velvety voice jfjwkdkka

ACTUALLY, I MIGHT AS WELL GIVE YOU ONE RN. >:) so, let us think about... zhongli who notices the way the corners of your eyes droop, as if trying to catch for the slightest wink of sleep — and who is he if not a gentleman? he offers you his shoulder to rest on. his voice tickles your ears and you can almost feel the rumbles of his chest as he talks. at this point, you aren't sure if you're even sleepier or just purely distracted but either way, you're not here to deny his act of thoughtfulness. oh, to lean on zhongli's shoulder sob sob <3

yes, may ayato come home !! <3 speaking of pulls, how did your pulls go??? is your hubby finally home??? 👀 i'm at 40+ pity rn but if zhongli doesn't come home, then alhaitham will <3 i also feel a temptation to pull for tighnari because he's so sassy fkwkkskd (but i won't since he'll be a standard five-star in 3.1) !! if hubby is home, send me an in-game selfie of him, i wanna see 👀

albedo set the path to my heart so ayato and heizou could strut in (/j) he's definitely one of the most complex characters! his design is vv breathtaking but when i write about him sometimes, i have to put in a bit more effort than usual but i like that challenge >:) all of a sudden, i really want to make a tier list for us genshin writers to sort characters into 'hardest to easiest to write' sections fjekfkkseksk

NOOOOO, not the traffic :( it seems we have to resort to another new blog, rin jie <//3 but i'll still be there to support you 🫂 go achieve your well-deserved writing space !! AND I JUST SAW YOUR NEW BLOG AND THE URL IS SO YOU??? (/pos) zhongrin for life <3

aww, ty! the meaning behind his name is actually 'warrior, protector' in irish and you're not wrong !! he just has that sleepy and rueful smile fjejkdksek and dw, take your time to catch up on the lore~ it lowkey took me a while to explore enkanomiya too HELFPPSKD but one fact unrelated to enkanomiya's lore about him is that he was makoto's (the original electro archon / ei's twin) lover. they came to know each other through diplomatic means but legends in inazuma noted how the two grew closer afterwards — her death in the cataclysm is partially the reason why he left for fontaine and grew hateful towards celestia. the former goddess of thunder and her loyal water nymph, but only one of them is left <//3

indeed, we normalize giving headpats to thousands-year-old men (looking at xiao and zhongli). how tall are you, rin jie??? 😭 lin is 165 cm btw !! i would absolutely cackle if he's shorter than you fjwkfkwlkf as eloquent and rich he might be, caelin gets super bashful when people call him handsome or just give him praises, he's vv pat-able <//3

p/s: ALSO !! i saw this tiktok and it reminded of you sm i started laughing HELDPWKKDKS

#also how are you enjoying sumeru so far??? 👀#i still haven't unlocked all the teleport waypoints yet fjkekdks but the lands are super vast with the mountains and all !!#ask box! 📬#visitor: dearest rin! 💠#amicus maris ; caelin! 🌊

I'd like to get a male MysMe and a HQ matchup please ty! I'm a 4'11" female. I'm very loud and cheerful and I'm not ashamed of embracing the things I enjoy! Due to how passionate I am regarding certain subjects, I get angry and passive aggressive very easily. I'm very hard working, and I dislike it when people excuse skills that I worked hard to hone as natural talent. Despite this, I'm told that I'm a fun person to be around. I get good grades, but I struggle with applying that knowledge irl.

hey there, thanks for your request m8!!! you really remind me of someone i know,,, ;o

for Haikyuu, I match you with ;

【 Oikawa Tooru 】

(pLEASE SDJSJKSJS i luv oikawa so much i wanna bash his skull with a calculator he radiates big uwu bastard energy i really need an oikawa give me a fucking oikawa.)

Not even gonna lie there, the both of you share extremely similar traits. Just like you, Oikawa is not one bit ashamed about pursuing what he enjoys the most and holds an immense passion for, which is volleyball. He is also very hardworking and is resentful to those who possess natural talent like Kageyama and are bound to surpass him regardless of how passionate he is at the sport or how hard he works. He could definitely see himself in you, and he greatly admires the the large amount of fighting spirit you hold in that small body you possess. He was attracted to your determination and was very inspired by the amount of effort you put into anything. Seeing you in action surely motivates him to better himself and reach past his limits! You are his muse, and because of your impact he believes he can achieve anything that he could set his mind to.

✦headcanons✧

+ One of the things Oikawa surely loves about you is your chirpiness. He is also a very jovial person by nature, and he indeed finds it very refreshing that you both share that similarity in personality traits. He loves how loud and obnoxious he could be with you as you both annoy the balls out of his fellow third-wheeling teammate Iwaizumi.

+ Canonically, Oikawa is one of the most intelligent characters in the franchise. Similarly, you may be very academically intelligent as you tend to earn stellar grades. Yet together, the two of you probably share exactly one functional braincell combined.

+ Oikawa is very playful and would often tease you and call you very cutesy pet names, as he wants you to know just how adorable you are to him. He loves the way your face would scrunch up in anger, a pout formed in your lips, and your arms crossed in passive aggression. Most of the pictures he has of you saved in his album feature that very same expression he so adores. However, during the times you do get back at him and whip out your handy dandy uno reverse draw +25 card… (Spoiler alert: he’s also a passive aggressive little shit)

+ Oikawa loves the fact that he’s literally over a foot taller than you in height, and he would tease you about it endearingly. If it is however an insecurity of yours, then he would constantly remind you that he loves you just the way you are, no matter what height you stand. The trashy Simp King would always try to help you promote thoughts of self love, we stan!!! He loves it when you would ask him for help with reaching high objects, he’d expect a kiss on the cheek after though. Head pats are very frequent. Oikawa loves to give you piggyback rides as well, and on days you both are high, you’d rush out of the house with him carrying you up above him as you yeet into the streets.

+ Since you both are normally very hard at work and exert so much effort into honing more skills when it comes to your guys’ passions, there may be times you both will overwork yourself. And just like that, you both will tell each other off for it rather hypocritically lmao. There may be frequent gaps in your relationship as you both are rather immersed into your passions, which may be the cause of some distance within it. Even though you both may have other priorities and each other as side hoes, putting at least some effort too in a relationship would make it last worthwhile and there will never dull moment.

and for Mystic Messenger, I match you with…

【 Zen / Hyun Ryu 】

You definitely strike me as what I would believe to be Zen’s ideal type of woman; hardworking, definitely passionate in pursuing your interests, and a go-getter. Zen is notably very good-looking, no, absolutely stunning. However, his killer visuals are not the only thing he wants to be recognized for as much as he likes to flaunt about them. He’s a very talented and hardworking musical actor who developed a passion for singing and acting at a young age, getting injured frequently on stage back in his rookie days due to overexertion. In this case, you were one of the few people who acknowledged Zen for how hard he had worked to hone his skills and recognized him for his talent and not his looks alone.

✦headcanons✧

+ He initially found himself attracted to your loud and exuberant personality. Zen was rather fond of the attention you would give him, and overall he found you very fun to be around! Your wavelengths match together very well! Y’all do be vibing doe. He had always had quite a great time when the two of you would gang up on Jumin in the chatroom and bullying him for his existence alone, and that he’s kind of a boomer with a stick deep up his ass.

(okay but let’s be real, Zen is the actual boomer here,, king said i never knew technology whom tf is she???)

+ Both of you act as pillars of encouragement for each other. With the absence of an emotionally supportive figure throughout Zen’s life, (besides his older brother, who later on sided with his parents) Zen would really appreciate someone he could open up to, and will willingly offer a listening ear as he confides about his past with his family and the hardships he had faced encountering the real world. And as with you, Zen could empathize on the fact that he also dislikes his talent being dismissed by others. He knows exactly what it’s like to work rigorously hard just to hone such skills. Nonetheless, Zen would always encourage you to keep your chin up and continue fighting. He’s very proud of you.

+ Don’t worry too much about your lack of street smarts that you couldn’t quite conjure up with a 4.0 GPA. Zen is pretty down to earth and is more knowledgeable when it comes to it, considering how he was exposed to the outside world very early. He would balance you out pretty well in this area.

+ Although Zen has been made by V to refrain from riding his motorcycle anymore, especially at night when it’s dangerous due to having once been involved in a near death accident, he once took you out on his motorcycle during your 1st anniversary to visit his safe place away from the city where you two could stargaze in the clear night sky and immerse yourselves into the peaceful silence of each others’ presence.

Hi cat, what advice do you have to keep a writer's inspiration/motivation up and going? Your masterlist has me in awe of how many fics you've written (they're all written very well btw 👌🏽) I've barely written anything all this year, I've finally started something, and it's really messy but I'm excited and yet kinda scared because I've never written something this long 😅😭 Thank youuuuuuu *hugs and kisses* 💓💓

Hello there, sweetpea! 🌸 First of all, thank you for reading my fics!! The thought of people actually wanting to read my writing still seems surreal to me even now haha 😅 And secondly and more importantly, congratulations on starting your first writing piece of the year! 🎉🎉 I’m so proud of you! that’s a huge accomplishment in itself already because the first step (in this case: starting to write) is always the hardest to take, in my opinion.

Pertaining to having constant writing inspiration and motivation, I’ll divide my advice up for the two separate topics. Personally, I constantly have ideas roaming my mind, but I simply lack motivation to write them all. But here are some things I learned about inspiration and motivation.

My advice for inspiration:

Use your personal experiences. I frequently formulate storylines about the things that have happened to me, and in my point in life right now, I’m in college where I have gotten a bunch of crazy experiences. That’s why my recent fics are mostly college au. Sobriquet was written almost identically to my own experience, whereas Caprice stemmed from me seeing a guy in my chem class regularly playing pokemon go instead of paying attention to class and grew in my mind into a fic idea. You can embellish and fluff up your life experience if you don’t think it’s interesting enough, thus whipping it up into great fic inspiration.

Use your dreams. Not everyone remembers their dreams when they wake up, but I remember a lot of the ones I have, and I use them as inspiration for writing. The majority of the dreams I wrote about in The Universe of Us are ones I actually had and then altered them slightly to fit into the storyline. I also have a lot of bizarre dreams that can actually turn into some very interesting fics lmao

Embrace the fangirl life and use it in your stories. Do you like Disney stories? Harry Potter? Anime? Find inspiration within other fandoms you enjoy. Write a hogwarts au, write a hunger games au, write a fic based on The Little Mermaid, etc.

Listen to music. Music is a huge source of inspiration, and you can think up fic ideas based on lyrics for example. Taylor Swift songs always help me when I’m trying to write a angsty scene, like a break up.

Check out prompt blogs. There are many blogs (ex: @/dailyau or this post that compiled a lot of au’s) out there that have writing prompts, which is super handy, if you lack inspiration. You can read through some of the prompts and see if any of them catch your attention.

Read. A lot. Writers get inspired by other writers. A wonderful way to fuel your imagination and inspiration and make them widen their horizons is by learning from other writers.

Be observant. Observe your surroundings, and you might just spot some inspiration. See the two baristas at your local coffee shop always bickering? Or perhaps, notice the boy who made a very creative promposal? Pass by someone and overhear them say something very interesting? You can turn those observations into fic ideas.

Be open to requests or suggestions. Your readers may have interesting ideas, and if you lack inspiration, you can open requests. You are by no means obligated to write them all, but they can spark up some inspiration. You can hold a drabble game, such as having them send in a song to write a song-inspired fic or picking a one-liner prompt. There are a lot of prompt lists out there that you can use for drabble games (ex: here, here, and here)

Daydream. Honestly, just relax somewhere with no distractions that makes you feel calm and stress-free. And let your mind wander. I get inspired as I daydream during car rides or whenever I’m simply sprawled out on my bed, doing nothing except making up ridiculous scenarios in my head.

My advice for motivation:

Be excited about writing. You certainly aren’t going to get any motivation if you’re not excited at all about writing. And, you said you’re excited and a little scared about your writing? That’s great! You should definitely feel excited about what you’re writing. You’re eager and happy to write then. And feeling a little nervous and scared is also good because that adrenaline rush and the feeling of butterflies in your stomach also adds a bit to the excitement, right?

You have to love the idea you’re writing. If you don’t like the prompt you’re writing, you aren’t going to feel very satisfied with your writing. You might even start to dread writing it and lose motivation. So, make sure that you actually genuinely enjoy the idea you’re writing.

Set the mood for writing. Is there a certain time you write best? Is there a certain place that you enjoy writing in? Do you write better when you listen to music? You will feel more motivated to write if the setting is ideal for you.

Write your short fics all in one sitting. This is just something that works for me personally. I have a super short attention span, which leads me to losing motivation quickly. This is why the majority of my fics are 1k to 4k oneshots because I write the entire fic at once. If I get an idea for a short fic, I write it immediately whether it be on my phone or my laptop because I know I won’t be motivated to write it in the future.

When you think of an idea for a long fic or series, wait a day before you write it. This is another thing that personally works well for me, but might not work for others. With long fic or series ideas, I want to know that I will finish it. I know I won’t be writing it all in one sitting since it’s going to be a long af fic, but I don’t want to write like 10k and then suddenly be like “I’m throwing this out. I don’t like this idea anymore.” I’m a very lazy person, and I don’t want to trash 10k of writing that I had spent hours on. So when I want to make a series or simply a long fic, I think of the idea and mull over it for a bit for a day or even weeks. And then, the next day or week, I ask myself, “Am I still interested in this idea?” If it’s a yes, then I begin to write it.

Make an outline of your fic before writing it. I only use this for long fic ideas that I have, but it works with any fic idea. Having an outline is sort of like seeing a schedule or a to-do list, which is quite motivating because of the sense of accomplishment and pride in yourself that comes when you check off something on the list (or checking off a scene you just completed writing from your outline). And studies show that people are more motivated to do something if they have it written down somewhere and see it daily.

Share and talk about your fic ideas with a friend. I never realized this until now, but having a friend hype up your ideas really boosts up your motivation to write them out. I tell all my fic ideas to fae and she’s always super supportive of them. I sometimes ask if I should do this or that, and she gives suggestions (oh, look at that, more inspiration courtesy of friends!!). I also give her various excerpts of the fic I’m working on, and she yells at me about them, so it’s like constant motivation throughout the writing period. So thanks, pablo, even though you show your support by screeching at me in all caps @zephyoongist

It’s okay to take a break from writing. If you are feeling unmotivated for a certain idea, don’t force yourself to write. Take a break. Go write a different scenario or make a snack or hang out with friends. When you come back, you will feel refreshed and ready to write. You can reread your writing with fresh eyes and may have new ideas or inspiration on how to continue the fic.

Just write. Let out all your emotions and everything you want to say or convey. Don’t be afraid that it won’t make sense. It’s okay for your fic to be messy during the writing process. You can always go back, cross things out, move sentences around, revise it, and fix it up until you think it’s perfect.

I hope these tips are helpful to you! It’s like 3 am for me now, so I should go to bed, but this is also my prime time for writing, so I’m a little conflicted lmao but anyway, once again, CONGRATULATIONS ON STARTING YOUR FIRST WRITING MASTERPIECE!!! ☺️❣️Best wishes for your writing journey, and I know your story will turn out amazing! And I hope you send me a link to your writing if you do publish it because I’d love to read it 💞💞 And, here are lots of hugs and kisses being sent your way from me to you as well 💌
