I love that the modern-day tumblr post equivalent of chain emails only requires me to reblog a relatively pleasant image instead of forward an email to a bunch of my friends and family members to quell my raging anxiety.

I got some new brushes I needed to try out so the melnem propaganda machine is back on

[fralle-chan]

this is honestly such a dumb little thing, that took waaay too long for what it is^^'

Still, this idea has been living rent-free in my head since I read the original tweet (more than a year ago, I think), so I'm glad to finally actually have it done xD

[phantomrose96]

When i turn an idea into a fic, it means that was an idea that developed far enough to have (for me) a compelling narrative through-line, and like a thesis for what this fic is about.

What this doesn’t capture is the ongoing daytime television playing in my head most days of self-indulgent scenarios that don’t have things like “cohesion” or “a narrative arc” but do an absolutely great job of filling time while like. Waiting for the bus.

[phantomrose96]

Like it’s hard to come up with an original and compelling idea and then figuring out how to best wrap and deliver that idea through a set of cohesive narrative beats.

What’s EASY is going “what if Character Who Gets Hurt A Lot gets hurt again and it’s not even THAT bad but for some reason this was the last straw and they’re crying in a bathroom stall about it while being mad at themselves and then the Character They Least Want To Find Them Like That comes and finds them like that”

[phantomrose96]

And I think what’s most important about these scenarios is they’re so interruptible. There’s no planning out a truly solid set of narrative beats that need to play out in order. It’s just a pause and play and rewindable scenario. So I can go “oh bus is here” “oh meeting started” “oh oven timer went off” and then come back to it later, whenever, at any part of the story.

And this also fundamentally makes them poorly suited to make into a real fic because there’s 8 variations and no true end. I could write it and be like “okay and that’s like, that’s like as far as I got, this doesn’t go anywhere, thanks, want to see the 7 alternate versions of that middle scene?”

honestly? abandoned/on indefinite hiatus/very slow to update fics, even and especially AUs and longfics, are often some of my absolute favorites. and people who refuse to read them are missing out!

for one, stories don’t have to be finished to be enjoyable and worth reading. but also? an unfinished fic is a whole little universe that just keeps on existing in my head! their world stays alive for me in a way that doesn’t always happen with fics I binge read and finish, and i love it. i don’t know how their story ends, so it just keeps going! and even when those stories DO update and finish years later, they’ve been in my head for so long that they stick around like old friends.

so to any author with unfinished works: thank you SO much for sharing what you had without waiting to finish it first. you’re just giving me the gift of getting to spend more time with your story and your idea. if you do update again someday, i’ll be delighted to jump back in! but if you don’t, just know a little piece of your world still lives on in a beloved tiny terrarium in my brain. i promise i’m taking good care of it :)

i don’t normally ask this, but if this resonates with you please reblog it, so it can reach the authors who need to hear it <3

Joining the war on codependence in yuri ships on the side of codependence in yuri ships. I think all yuri ships should get more unhealthily codependent. I think they should be so dependent on each other that separating them could result in the deaths of multiple people. It's always okay to make your yuri ship more reliant on each other in a way that's not good for either of them. This is my official no nuanced stance.
