Hey pumpkin! I love writing burns that are A BIT slow and making fictional characters suffer | D:BH, Outlast, End Roll | My D:BH fics masterlist | I've got a secondary "creative" blog too!

Since I get comments on Good morning, Lieutenant of readers who tell me they've decided that they consider my work discontinued, given that I haven't updated in at least a year, I think it would be good to write a small explanation on where I'm at and what I'm planning. It's December 2021 as I'm writing this post, so if you read this as late as 2026, assume that it's still valid.
TL;DR - Yes I'm still around writing fanfic, yes I still intend to continue GM,L one day, no I can't say when but you can expect a few more years to go by before I find enough free time. More details below!
1) I have not stopped writing for the Detroit: Become Human fandom. While I am a lot less active than before on social media, I'm still a fan, and I still love the characters. If you check my AO3, you'll see that I continue updating some of my fics, even thought my schedule is more stretched out than it used to be and can get really sporadic at times.
2) I still intend to continue GM,L one day. I have a lot of stuff planned for the second installment and I don't want to go in half-cocked, at the risk of burning myself out and stopping midway, and then truly never finishing it.
3) I have a full-time job now, which I didn't have when I was writing the 600k of GM,L's first volume. This means that I have less time and energy to indulge in fanfic, especially given that I don't get anything tangible from writing it (read: no money, which is kind of a big deal in the real world), except for when I do commissions, which I only got a demand for once. No bills get paid that way.
This job also means that I have more responsabilities. All of this puts the brakes on my productivity/creativity.
4) I have been considering the possibility of publishing my own stories one day. It used to be just some fantasy, but then I met the writeblr side of Tumblr, and since then I've given it more serious thought. Consequently, nowadays I'm divided between writing fanfic (which I still very much enjoy, especially considering that I have readers who like what I do) and writing my own content (which I also enjoy because they're my own characters, and imagine if I do publish one day! How glorious). So, less time for fanfic.
5) The way I envision my future (and I realllly hope it will unfold that way) is this: in the following years I'd like to write the "lighter" fanfics like my alternate universes for example (because they generally contain less subplots and less convoluted storytelling than GM,L), and focus on my original content. Once I get a stable job, I'd like to find work which would allow me a more easy-going rythm and more free time for hobbies, and there I'd find the time to write GM,L's second volume and my stories in general.
But all this is hypothetical, so who knows when I'll get back to GM,L. It could be later or it could be earlier than planned. At any rate, never doubt that I would 100% warn you if anything changed with the GM,L situation.
Thank you for your patience and understanding. I'm still open to asks and comments despite my less obvious online presence. Interaction with you all is always welcome, even if I may be less reactive than before. Thanks for reading, pumpkin <3
(I didn't expect so many people to like my villain AU but hello!!! Idk how long this hyperfixation will last, but for the time being, welcome to my cardboard box!! Feel free to pick it up and shake it with me in it!!!)
And if you have any questions or prompts for Pulse(Villain Robert) i welcome them because my brain is tiny and filled with woodland creatures.
i keep laughing at the way that eridian culture in the movie and eridian culture in the book are not contradictory at all, if you accept that movie rocky is just a total FREAK
grace: boy i sure can't wait to meet other eridians haha!
rocky, putting on a shirt for the first time in four years: rocky has something to tell grace but does grace promise not to be mad, question?
* New student, very small. Grace said it was pebble. Pebble is small Earth rock. Pebble likes name.
* He found out Eridians have no gender rules.
* Students brought him mineral sample. After he stopped crying he said he loves show-and-tell game. Human naming conventions oddly literal.
* I told him Earthsun grew bright.
* I took him up atop atmosphere bypass elevator to look at stars.
* He woke up from nap and found me still with him. I did not wait on his chest; he says I am heavy like âelephantâ and he âcouldnât breathe.â I laid my arm over him instead, kept him close, feeling safe. He said âcuddleâ was warm.
* Before class he heard younglings singing.
* He has plants in house from sprouts on ship. Plant grew âbud.â
* Engineers got seawater temperature right. He took off shoes and stood in water, sighing. He didnât care about pants getting damp. Cried until shirt was also damp. Humans very endlessly wet.
* He missed âDoritos.â
* Adrian helped food scientists make taumoeba dried paste. Made it crunchy after heating. We fused it into triangle form. Told him it was Tauritos. That made him laugh-cry. Laugh-cry is rare and precious.
* He remembered Eridians have no gender rules.
* We made him celebration outfit. Used metals he calls pretty. He can see frequencies named âcolorfulâ and âshiny.â These make humans happiest.
* I gave him hug when he wasnât expecting it. Easier to hug close now with exosuit. Hug when Grace sitting down so he does not fall over.
* Told him to think long time, stay with me as long as he can.
You should be able to say âdonât touch meâ to anyone ever in any context and not have it be considered in the realm of surprising or insulting imho if we ever needed to normalize something itâs this
