hi lovely humans. this is a long post. but i need to talk about this. yes, i'm ranting, but i'm genuinely tired of this and i can no longer be the "i'll just deal with it" type. i read every person i look at interacting withs' rules. it's common sense in this community and not doing it at this point is kinda disrespectful in my opinion.
TLDR: (although you should read if we interact unless it's been for a long time, i know y'all understand my rules very well) READ MY RULES!
a reminder for anyone who wants to interact with me, my rules are important and it's obvious when people haven't read them especially the "female vs male muses".
one, i have a ratio rule of 1:1 male:female (i don't have nb/genderfluid muses rn so that's the ratio rn), if you are someone who doesn't care about ratios that is fine, i am happy to give more females if you'd like but my males come with rules. i prefer playing my femmes and being used for my males has irked me to no end over my many years in the rp community. now, to help myself stay on top of this there is a time limit for if you've posted a reply to my males and not my females, i've been giving leeway with it given my own health and the holiday season BUT next year, after my bday i will be enforcing the time limit again (of two weeks). as usual, if muse level is an issue, that is more than okay, i am happy to hold onto your reply to my male until you get around to having enough muse to reply to my female but otherwise, i will drop the thread after two weeks and it'll be a strike against me interacting with you. (note: i, whether queuing or directly posting, will post my male and female replies together/one after the other, this helps me so i keep the ratio especially if someone i'm rping with also finds it important, you can always not reply to my male and wait til your muse replying to my female is musey again. hold it in your drafts, that's fine, i am happy to wait. it's far better than feeling used. i do sometimes give slack with a couple of replies but over the past year it's been harder to do that given how disheartening it is (especially with my rsd).) also, if you reply to male muses starter, reply to a females too OR reach out to interact with one, not doing so makes it awkward for me because i then have to follow up on something that should be a no-brainer given my rules, which you should've read. i've legit been told once that they figured my rules didn't kick in until we interacted a little bit, that's not how it works.
two, sadly, f/f threads are still rough, there are a few muses/people i interact with willing to do them platonic and not but they are minimal rn. so most threads are m/f rn. m/m is still open but lower muse too. i get this isn't for everyone and that's totally okay. sometimes i will reach out and ask for f/f and you can do the same but it's not guaranteed. this also connects to three...
so, three, i don't rp with all female blogs. i understand some people don't like playing males at all and that is totally okay but this is my preference, especially when i don't have much muse for f/f threads having all female blogs like my posts to interact with me is.... bothersome. like, the f/f thing is on my pinned post and my rules, so you can't miss it if you're looking at my blog. which means you've liked something or reached out without giving my blog a real look at all or you've ignored/haven't read my rules or expect me to just to m/f threads with solely my males with you. that's isn't going to happen. i'm not kidding when i say there have been at least 20 all-female blogs in the past month that have liked interaction posts or reached out to rp. sorry, but it's my preference right now and will not happen.
Officially been at Taco Bell for 2 weeks and I feel like each day I work there I get better. Everyone is nice and the jobs not too too hard. There are some days that are harder then others, like on the 28th are was a song apparently by a country dude about getting drunk and getting tacos from taco bell, so it was so busy aaaaall day. Last night was a friend and it was busy til 1:30 am bro, shit you not. I wanted to die.
Everyday before work I have a meltdown because everyday I wake up, some days drive all the way out to Pocahontas to drop Caleb off at Peco where he works, then all the way back to Paragould, work til 3am, then go back to Pocahontas to pick Caleb up, get home at around 4:30am, clean the litter box, do dishes, go to bed, wake up and do the same thing over again at 2pm. All week until the weekends. I get that that's having a job for you and this is my first time doing full time and I'm not used to it yet, I want to be so badly though, but honestly it's not the fact that I have to work so much that bothers me. It's because these past weekends were always doing something and I haven't been able to do anything myself. Like someone will have a bday party or a baby shower, or we have to get our taxes done which we still haven't done.
Our anniversary is on Monday, it'll be 5 years. And Greene County is making do jury duty. At least it's only in the morning at 8:30. I asked off for that day and they didn't give it to me at first and I panicked really bad but it's all good now thankfully. Today me and Caleb are buying anniversary gifts for each other. He's going to Grateful Headz rn, he tried to be secretive about it but it didn't work. When he gets back I'm going to Grateful Headz and then Special Moments to get something special, idk what yet. I'm thinking lingerie but I don't know yet. Then after that we're gonna go to Spencer's!! I'm gonna get a beanie there and a gauge kit because I've been thinking since I got my septum last year to gauge my ears and now I finally want to really do it. I've seen so many people in the drive thru having gauges of every style and I want some now. I also been wanting to get my nails done but still debating on it. If I have money left over which I doubt I will, I'll get them done with Zoey. But I doubt I'll have money since nails are like $50.
So last week lots of jiara writers were posting their wips and we never got to see yours so what are your current wips if you have any?
Yeah see I got tagged but none of mine have titles til right before I publish them so I didnt think I had anything cool to share. I'm honored u thought of me tho!!
Rn I only have four I'm *actively* working on cause I try and keep my workload ~somewhat~ manageable lol
Current title: ana's birthday fic
@rcsales sorry babe this is gonna be like... two months late now. Probly more whoopsie. Basically I promised ana club smut and then I accidentally gave it a storyline and now it's at 21.8k and I still have three more porn scenes to write AND all the respective connective tissue, so. That's where I've been focusing efforts and I know its gonna take me a while to finish yet, but it is the filthiest, most sinful thing I've ever fucking written and I'm not even done with the first smut scene yet, so prepare thyselves
Current title: 'katie's bday fic'
Ditto on the apology to @aarchiess for the tardiness of said gift. This one is much shorter and deadass half way done but I hit a block and am trying to get ana's done first so hopefully I can slam it out in like 2/3 days once I'm done with the epic currently in progress. It's literally just van sex.
Title: 'home (where your heart is set in stone)
This is my roommate fic I have like 8 anons clamoring for and I SWEAR TO GOD GUYS ITS NOT ABANDONED!! I have the entire outline finished and I am still really excited to get working on it again, but I have the previous two fics to finish first.
Title: caught between (the devil and the deep blue sea)
Another multichap that looks forsaken but is not. @aarchiess and I brainstorm for this monster daily and it lives rent free in my head. We r still outlining and chap two is started, with a ton of other scenes half-written and conceptualized, as well. I want to finish the "oneshots" first n then slam out at least two chaps of home before I fully body this fic, but Katie works on it a lot in small pieces and we r both excited to share it with y'all
Floating ideas:
Engineering school au collab with @yellowlaboratory
5/6 n 1 abt ~sinful things~ collab with @hvitstark
A band au with rockstar!JJ and reporter!Kie that will probs be my next multichap after home and caught between are done
And about a million others that float around in my brain that I keep ~meaning to get to~
Anyway, thanks SO much for asking, and hopefully this is an answer to the anons that keep asking abt the multichaps... I'm sorry for ignoring y'all I get ~anxious~ lol. I swear I'm writing!! I just also started my first Big Kid 9-5 so I dont have as much time to spend on fic, and I've been trying to do less screens for mental health reasons, so even if the writing is going at a snail's pace, I promise the idea factory is churning at all waking hours.

tonight when waiting for responses from kile regarding questions.
When was the last time you cried?
Tonight. I hard sobbed, which I thought maybeeee, maybe just maybe I was past this stage with Kile but I’m so not. He maybe?? thought or realized I was genuine about leaving, given the fact I am more and more and more withdrawn. So he asked about us talking, since that’s the big thing we could tackle instead of just harshly cutting ties. He has avoided talking about this since I found out about everything.. I think it gives him a lot of anxiety to unpack just how much hurt he’s caused. I can empathize with that. But I can’t just gloss over this huge trauma like it meant nothing. So we talked a little bit and he assumed I was judging (which is one of my absolute least favorite things he accuses me of) and then when I explained I wasnt, he said he was just being sensitive and he was sorry. for whatever reason, I just.. i feel like a balloon that’s been popped. my heart just desires him so badly but he has these barriers and now I have a million of my own barriers and I hate having barriers with him. ive worked so hard for so long to break those down and now theres more than I can count and I just.. i want to understand. I want to stop the feelings that I’m not worth the truth. Like i’ve been kept in the dark for 6+ years and now that I’m told some things, I’m still kept in the dark. I just can’t win. there’s nothing left for me and it just wrecked me. I sobbed, I couldn’t breathe. my heart hurtssssssssss. i just want him to be here and fix it and he can’t. what do you do when the one person who could stop the hurt, causes it?
