making spreadsheets about my own fanfics helps absolutely no one but now i do know that my wol is the pov character for approximately 45% of my words written, and my most written era of the game is post-endwalker with 16.15%. absolutely useless information. will not be accurate the moment i go to write again. the 2nd biggest pov is valerian with 21%. the two after that are 8.7% & 8.7%, to put all that into perspective. the total number is 199222 unless i add that one fic without any ocs that i made in a trance back in september which would make that number 199909.

to put THAT into perspective, it took me well over a year, maybe even close to 2, to reach 200k with destiny fics.

ive played ffxiv for 7 months.

#it all makes sense of course #my wol ziero is obviously the guy ive had the longest. well aside from kasumi but...#kas is doing her thing. shes. irrelevant here #valerian is 1. my dearest old man and 2. hes the one whos lived through the most #like hes what. 60 at this point? ive written shit about him starting with when he was 16.#the two after that are the guy at the head of like 2 of my aus #and my ancient oc whos at the source of multiple aus #as for post-ew its because after endwalker i had to write. approximately 18k of post-ew zenoswol.#ziero's biggest numbers are in stormblood endwalker & post-ew #valerian peaked in pre-canon #just like myron. pretty obviously. since theyre an ancient.#& i counted them & their reincarnation (miles with 5.5%) separately #i... should be reading frankenstein.#ALSO #i keep getting more unhinged with interests #like i was startled by how bad the destiny interest got at one point but. i have more hours in xiv than in destiny by now

Today I offer you all my Frankenstein character design sketches and annotations. I’m not at home this week, and don’t have my ipad with me so I can’t do digital versions just yet, but I wanted to share the pencil drawings anyway. Hopefully I’ll post digital ones next week.

#frankenstein #victor frankenstein #henry clerval #elizabeth lavenza #frankenstein’s creature #I listened to the audiobook over two days this week and had a great time #if anyone has recommendations for more gothic lit I should read/ listen to I’m down for suggestions #Paris’s box of classic lit blorbos

I just need y’all to keep in mind that the entire framing device of Frankenstein is that it’s a letter. And I need you to imagine being Walton’s sister going forward.

#just keep that in mind #I promise it will improve your reading experience 100x #poor Margaret lmao #frankenstein #frankenstein daily #I wrote an epilogue YEARS ago from her pov I should dig it up #I MIGHT have published it to fanfic but I have no clue and I don’t remember #or I just kinda imagined I did

Reading Frankenstein for the first time (tried before but yeesh Mary, you didn’t have to hammer on the framing device that fuckin hard babe my ADHD was bouncing off it like a rubber ball) but Dr. F is like, the ultimate argument for making people study the humanities yeah not exactly the hottest take but still true

#victor frankenstein #frankenstein or the modern prometheus #‘what about Gideon Spacie’#I have Our Hideous Progeny due in three days #and it occurred to me that I should probably read Frankenstein first to properly appreciate it

packing up my bindle and trudging back to the classic lit fandom 💔

#anyway i started reading dogra magra and it's. certainly something #also reading hermann hesse's the prodigy (beneath the wheel)#now THIS is dark academia. except the dark academia girlies would never accept it for how it criticises the education system.#and also because the dark academia girlies have completely warped the original concept of dark academia books </3 #i should also continue les mis. i'm such a fake fan i haven't even finished volume 1 #same with moby dick. i paused it about 1/3 of the way in. but luckily there's no plot so i can just pick it up again whenever #aough i just remembered i'm also partway through little women. and 1/3 of the way through my reread of frankenstein #i wouldn't have this problem if i didn't spend half of my time posting about bsd on tumblr </3 #NAUR THERE'S MORE. also 1/3 through vasily grossman's life and fate #and i haven't even finished my reread of crime and punishment #the state of things............ watch me forget even more books i'm so-called 'reading'#EDIT: THE SECOND HALF OF GONCHAROV'S ОБРЫВ THAT I HAVEN'T FINISHED

this is what i imagine taylor swift was thinking of when she said 1830s without the racism

#decidedly didnt include orientalist paintings but did include a book of mormon bc i thought it was funny #so not really free of racism.#jordan talks #she wants to do her whole poet thing im assigning her some poetry readings from tennysons lady of shallott #its 2 am dont mind me #i just finished a 19th century (european) art history class can u tell #sorry it should be the revised frankenstein but hey. still existed then #imagine she said 1930s instead ……… Depression core with a capital D

Ok but why does Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein” go so hard?

#I’m literally going to start part three tomorrow and I’m like #WHAT THE FUCK #every chapter #like Idk if it’s the years of English lit burned into my brain #but WHY WASN’T THIS REQUIRED READING #WHY WAS I FORCED TO READ To Kill a Mockingbird SO MANY FUCKING TIMES #FUCK #THIS SHIT GOSS HARD #frankenstein #mary shelley #authors #✨women✨#memorable women #women who should 100% be talked about more in history and lit classes but aren’t because fucking WHHITE men

yknow ive noticed i absolutely fucking adore weird failed experiment type characters. do yknow what i mean i dont know how to put it. like my favorite area in undertale is true lab (actually its one of my favorite areas in any video game PERIOD) because of the amalgams. im a huge fan of the biolizard from sa2. i have an oc of the goo clones from ok ko i think that counts. do you see the pattern

#snick snickers #im not wording this right but you see what i mean right #boys who should read the classic literature frankenstein
