"Do you understand? When I am done telling you these stories, when you're done listening to these stories, I am no longer I, and you are no longer you. In this afternoon we briefly merged into one. After this, you will always carry a bit of me, and I will always carry a bit of you, even if we both forget this conversation."
– Hao Jingfang, "Invisible Planets," in Invisible Planets: Contemporary Chinese Science Fiction in Translation, tr. & ed. Ken Liu

"My love is the evenin' breeze touchin' your skin
The gentle, sweet singin' of leaves in the wind
The whisper that calls after you in the night
And kisses your ear in the early moonlight
And you don't need to wonder, you're doing fine
My love, the pleasure's mine"

Aeterna Amantes 2/?
This blood on my teeth it is far beyond dry, and I've captured you once, but I wasn't quite right.
So I'm telling you that you'll be safe with me.
Why is this song not on Spotify anymore I’m so sad 😭 I used to listen to it over and over again when I was like 12..

My girl, Maru~
This is a redraw of a Maru from 2 years ago (I’m sure some of you remember it). I’ve been meaning to redraw it forever ago, but I got preoccupied with life stuff ;)
Keep reading to see the original drawing!
The link to the original post is here~
Even though my drawing skills and art quality improved a lot in 2 years,, I can’t deny that there is a charm in my older works that I definitely miss and can’t quite encapsulate again.

The day before yesterday I was looking at statistics about reading habits in different countries (average book count per year, age, most read genre, etc) and then yesterday i came across a poll here asking how many books youve read so far this year and now im wondering:
The highest I saw (not just in that poll's tags but on other socials as well) was 365! With the person in question being a lil under 300 rn.
The lowest (and no shame here! I myself have picked up reading again after a long time and it's quite the challenge) was 1! But I also saw lots of people aim for 5.
The average seems to be anywhere around 30 to 60!
And the second most common bracket (interesting that it's also the one made up of mostly late teens and early 20yos) is 10-30!
Idk if anyone will read this but if u do, id love to know more about your thought process in the tags!
(Just pls be kind to each other and no fucked up elitism lol)
