ONE OF YOU THIRSTY WADDS (affectionate) just singlehandedly changed the course of my life and simultaneously ensured more anklemeatafton fics for all of you.

I set up my ko-fi almost 3 years ago now-- nobody ever donated, and in all honesty I forgot that it even existed. Until yesterday.

One of you gave me my very first ko-fi donation and a really sweet message-- it may not seem like much, but I was at a point in my life where things were pretty difficult. I haven't had time to do things I enjoy, most notably writing fics-- I missed it. I was at a turning point where I was considering just saying screw it, I want to write again-- but I was scared.

On that exact day, this person sent me that donation and that message.

It felt like some sort of sign from the universe that this was the right thing to do-- so I am. I'm writing again. I actually just finished the first chapter of a new longer fic, which is up now!

Anyway I just wanted to say thank you. Even if it was just a little thing, that message and that donation really mattered. It drastically changed my life. It was the final push I needed to start writing again. What may seem relatively inconsequential to one person could make a world of difference to someone else-- thank you :)

TL;DR: NEW ANKLEMEATAFTON FICS DROPPING REGULARLY!!!

few things more humbling than the realization that you really do write the same fic(s) over and over again

Someone mentioned on another tumblr post about how nobody complained that Agatha Christie wrote ANOTHER book about murder.

Write your story. Write it again. And again.

[sashaforthewin]

Okay but do you understand the TREASURE TROVE of reading a fic you enjoy and then looking at the author's page and discovering they have written multiple just like it?! That is the ultimate score!

[the-bar-sinister]

Nobody complained that Agatha Christie wrote ANOTHER book about murder

My editor and I have a joke where we start writing a fic on the spot and go "okay, so it's in the dead middle of night, foggy, slightly rainy, slightly colder than comfortable, full moon, William Afton is stalking you, what flavour of science-engineering-surgery-dentistry-alchemy doctorate are we in the mood for?"

Our longer works are just the same story over and over again in different AUs, such that eventually one character literally is just the same guy who keeps changing outfits and knows about all of the other timelines. It's an endless cycle of reincarnation but he keeps waiting through time to court his beloved again, and again, and again. And they always die, and they always come back, and they never remember, but he does, and he just keeps re-marrying them to keep living with them and loving them forever.

My Love is Hellfire Meiko!! (Wearing the Vocaloid x Rascal outfit, without horns or a scythe).

This was a commission-- I did the lines, and my client colored it. Posted with permission from my client.

I made little catnaf stickers! I really like him (and protoype). Give this horrifying monstrosity of unholy alchemy and mad science some pets.

Versions without prototype's hand under the cut!

More more catnafs! What a good atrocious little lad. I'm planning on doing another sticker design with him and actual naf moon being sleepytime friends soon.

[anklemeatafton]

I wanted to buy some merch with the Afton Robotics logo on it, but I couldn't find any that both matched the canon description from the books and also looked the way that I think fits William's design aesthetic-- so I made one myself! And now it's on Redbubble! Want it on a shirt? A sticker, a magnet? A tote bag, a spiral notebook? A shower curtain, apparently??? You can even get it on a wall clock for some reason! You too can join me in having the Afton Robotics logo plastered all over everything you own :) Now that I have a redbubble, I think I'm going to design a ton of stickers or other designs that I would want on everything. If there's something specific you have an idea for or want me to make so that you can buy it as merch, let me know! If you aren't satisfied with what's available, I can just make you one!

[aberrantcreature]

The secret wish is to write a fanfic that someone loves so much they make fan art of it, or to create a drawing that someone creates an entire fic based off of it.

[aberrantcreature]

This has gotten so much attention and so many reblogs of people saying how much this happening to them would completely make their days, so I want to encourage you all:

WRITE FANART FANFIC!!

Even if it’s just a one shot!

DRAW FANFIC FANART!!!

Even if it’s just a sketch!!

We need to support each other more in that way as creators! ❤️ Bring joy to one another!!

I had work all day at the hospital so I couldn't do a proper art doodle but!! With what highlighters and pens I had, happy miku day!!

If I give her this offering, she may spare my soul another day! Perhaps even bless me with a merciful full combo in any of her various rhythm games which I must play daily in place of a blood sacrifice...

oh no I have two hands

[anklemeatafton]

Man crocheting with OCD is e x h a u s t i n g

It's like oh? You're counting? You're counting stitches? You fool! You absolute spectacle of tomfoolery and generic clownery! You cannot do that many stitches in a row, that is the Bad Number. Count to 128 exclusively in multiples of 7 or 14, if it doesn't come out perfectly even then simply perish you unsymmetric serf. Your hand is cramping? The little bidybab-bitch-baby-plush-baby-lookin'-ass's hand hurts? You can't crochet 0.014 x 10^(3) stitches in one go? Break it then, you crying-child-lookin' epitome of patheticism, you won't. Do it, I dare you.

yoU LOST C O U N T ? !

WHAT IF YOU STOPPED ON A MULTIPLE OF 3, 6, 13, 15, 16, OR ONE OF THE BAD MULTIPLES OF 9???

you lost count. you lost fucking count of your stitches-- we will Assume That You Stopped On A Bad Number because we Cannot RememberTM--

You have stopped on a Bad Number. Everything is horrible and nothing will ever be okay again. DIE ABOUT IT.

Or, alternatively, undo your entire project in multiples of 14 at a time and redo it correctly after straightening and combing your curly already-crocheted-yarn for hours. You must repeat this process 14 times. This is the only way to undo the Unforgivable Atrocity That You Have Committed.

Man I'm just trying to crochet a cute little hour-long-project amigurumi cherryblossom snail for a secret santa at my hospital unit ;u; why can't I just. be normal. about these things--

[bamsara]

"youve already written that trope" yesss. i like it a lots. i will be writing it again. 1000 stories of the same trope over and over again for ten million years

i woke up from a dead sleep fever dream with this very important pre-med intrusive thought:

new tag yourself, assign you and the homies epithelial tissue (with or without cilia/microvilli)

tag yourself i'm simple squamous epithelial tissue

[I'm assigning my roommate ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelial tissue]

[anklemeatafton]

new pfp because the last one didn't come out with the right naf (i accidentally figured out color theory and the rule of thirds 2 profile pictures ago, forgot for the last one, then remembered why they were important this time)

[anklemeatafton]

I FINISHED CHAPTER 23 OF THE PRISONER FIC (IT'LL BE POSTED TOMORROW)

I'm really sorry about the extremely long unplanned haitus. This fic was supposed to be completed over a year and a half ago. Between having several surgeries and double-majoring at college, things got out of hand with how busy I was, and suddenly I realized how long it had been.

I'm making an effort to finish this fic as soon as possible while still giving you guys the highest quality of content that I can (it was also supposed to have less chapters, but. William Afton. Damn. I just kept having ideas and they were all lewd and I wanted to give them all to you). I successfully wrote 2 and a half chapters in one sitting, so not only is there guaranteed a finished chapter tomorrow, there's another one coming in a few days, too. And because the one after that is now already started, it shouldn't be far behind.

TL;DR: I'm alive and new chapters are gonna get posted! Yay~!

Update: the timelines continue to be stitched together

(Several thousand(?) years after the events of the Atrocities AU, Peanut Entity wanted to take a corporeal form, and now Master Key exists.)
