Hello all! 👋🏾 Call me Kyu (pronounced 'Q'). 🌸 I am a creative writer & novice animator in my mid 20s. My biggest dream is to bring my stories to life via animation, whether they are original or fan-made. I made this account hoping to make friends with artists & writers of many genres & formats! 🤗
And if it means anything, I'm a big fan of BTS, kdramas and too many anime series to name (The Apothecary Diaries, My Hero Academia, Demon Slayer, and Dandadan being my current faves lol). I've also studied Korean on & off for like six years, and trying to get back to it to it! 💪🏾😤
Current 2D WIPs (all to be animated & possibly made into light novels 1st):
Oh, Coffee Boy! - Akachi is just an introverted guy who lives in the country with his grandparents. In a rush out the door to his first day at his new job, he ends up at the right restaurant but the wrong location. Transferred without time to reject, Akachi is now stuck with cosplaying coworkers while being forced to make his least favorite drink. Will the poor boy survive? {romcom/SOL}
• Eyes of the Beholder - When Nakato sleeps, Kuba awakens. When Kuba sleeps, Nakato awakens. This is how it's been for the last 16 years, but things begin to fall apart when the King & Queen of the Vintage kingdom are murdered. As the two begin remembering things for once, longtime secrets are revealed, and the throne to the Vintage kingdom is in danger. In the midst of the fight to prevent another devastating war from breaking out in the world of Ethereal lies a girl who has never dreamed at all. | {medieval fantasy}
• The Guardians - A tsundere angel named Eunwoo journals about his first solo assignment as a guardian angel of a quirky girl named Kia. | {supernatural SOL}

I have nearly 30 thought-posts in my drafts and many of them are actually fire lol. Idk why I never posted them, but I may have to slowly reel them out frfr.
It's nuts how common it is to not allow children to be angry, even (especially) in households where adults are angry all the time. As a child I knew my own anger was unacceptable--not just expressing it outwardly but feeling it at all. So now as an adult my immediate reaction to my own anger is often to feel guilt instead of like. Noticing when someone is being rude or unfair or my boundaries are being violated or whatever. fucked up.
I really don't like this trend in rom anime/manga where the leads are teenage girls that absolutely look their age while their love interests look like grown men. It took some time to adjust to The Apothecary Diaries (and Jinshi honestly did look more his age in that scene after they raided Shishou's fortress).I can also appreciate the fact that he's only a year or two older than Maomao, was pretending to be a 25 year old eunuch, is super buff from training, and that petite girls actually exist. But then I watched Sugar Apple Fairy Tale (which I overall enjoyed story-wise), but it's like.... a 15 year old girl with a fairy that's over a century old.... who very clearly looks like a grown ass man in comparison. 🤡 There are SO many fairies in that series varying in size & "age". Why not make Shall appear closer to Anne's age, or just make Anne older? Idk.... It's just starting to feel like a sly way to romanticize age gaps, and have a "but not really" to fall back on....
I know I already made a post to this effect but it's so baffling to me when someone defends the fact that headphone jacks are slowly but surely getting phased out by smartphone manufacturers with some variations of "wireless headphones are more convenient anyway" bc like. If we're talking about convenience what I like about wired headphones is that they conveniently have a single plug that makes the same damn pair of headphones universally compatible with every single audio-output-capable device I own, from my phone and my computer to my fucking gameboy and my casette player, it doesn't get any more convenient than that.
seeing people say "this trope has been done to death" as if that's ever stopped anyone from eating bread. BREAD HAS BEEN DONE TO DEATH FOR LITERALLY THOUSANDS OF YEARS AND WE STILL WANT MORE BREAD. write your chosen one AU. write your coffee shop meet-cute. write your 47th iteration of "there was only one bed" because guess what??? we're still hungry.
irritating as fuck when people get mad at Black people existing in premodern historical fiction/fantasy media. like first of all, you're racist. and second of all, you are acting as though Black people didn't exist in premodern Europe which is simply false. especially when we're talking about the Mediterranean, like what the fuck do you people think is along the southern half of the Mediterranean Ocean?? everyone's on boats, there are GOING to be interactions with Black people in Northern Africa, and there are GOING to be Black people in Mediterranean Europe. stop being stupid. your imagined homogeneous white European past is not historical reality, get over it you massive losers
