The Genesis of nagi-ddlcpolyblog, Another DDLC Poly Blog
welcome one and all to my apparent attempt at killing my writerās block.Ā
hi, Iām nagi (@miss-naginata), whom like five people total may know as naginata_gay_edition on the Archive of Our Own. simply put, polydokis has been on my mind recently. I havenāt had much energy for actual, proper writing even as the blorbos embed themselves into each ridge and crevice of my brain, and my solution appears to be this. I hope you have fun.
This polycule consists of all four girls plus a transfem MC. in here youāll be seeing little dialogue bits, maybe a ficlet or two, and some occasional lore dumps extracted fresh from my friendsā DMs after I yap at them for long enough.
There will not be any NSFW content. I might get very mildly suggestive if Iām ever ballsy enough, but please donāt count on that or demand that from me. Feel free to send asks but also please treat me like a little glass doll if you do that ty /lhĀ
anyway, onto the summary, I guess
General Stuff
This AU takes place a good few years after the Literature Club happened (with some major alterations on that). In a sense, this whole thing is basically an alternate timeline to a fic I own - Of Wounds That Mend - and which I have not yet finished at all. Does this count as spoilers? I really hope not.
Everyone is in their twenties, are working jobs (except for one) and are all living an overall pretty normal life. They all have their complexes, occasional issues, but they love each other very much mwah mwah mwah
Monika
Monika works as an analytical chemist and part time girlfriend of five. Work is something that can be stressful (nevermind the work it took to get there), but her occupation is the one which brings the most income and she finds comfort in the fact that sheās dependable. She can be emotionally stunted and is prone to overworking, which has produced a kind of āgirl who should be taken care ofā title from her lovers. She learns to accept this and becomes all too willing to dive into someoneās arms the moment she gets home. At times she feels some guilt for accepting so much love and care, and it takes much elbow grease for her to realize she does deserve this, not for being the primary breadwinner, but because sheās loved and thatās all there is to it.
Sayori
Sayori is unemployed and, thanks to her self worth issues, feels very guilty for this, often attempting to ācompensateā by doing work around the house (to Natsukiās dismay, she really wants to help with cooking). She has the issue of being somewhat of a people pleaser, which takes some time to iron out as she accepts that she, too, is deserving of things she wants and needs. Sheās treated as the oracle of love and affection in the polycule, not because everyone is bad at it in comparison, but because she has an Energy⢠that draws everyone in for cuddles and head-scritches.
Natsuki
Natsuki works in a coffee shop with one of her girlfriends. She can be blunt and sassy and has a deep-knit urge to subvert her own feelings, but sheās very intimate and loving when given space. She once possessed a passion for writing that she eventually let go of throughout the years; this was soon reignited by two of her loversā shared enjoyment of the art. She enjoys getting into teasing fights with her girlfriends and play-wrestling with some (which, more often than not, ends in a ferocious make-out).
Yuri
Yuri is a trans woman who works entirely at home. She owns a literature critique YouTube channel with a microcelebrity following, but most of her income comes from her part-time job as a writer ā every few months when a publisher wants her to work on a book. It is commonly hellish, but she, allegedly, does not regret turning her hobby into a career. Single copies of her books are in her bedroom, and they all have little notes from her lovers, ranging from āIām so proud of you, loveā to āmissing hyphen.ā She has a habit of being overly meek with her girlfriends, which is spawned from her reluctance to be forward with cisgender women due to internalized dysphoria and from the fact that she is the most recent addition to the polycule ā in fact, the only one they didnāt meet in high school. It is, to them, very fun to fluster her and attempt to crack her shell.
Mabel
Mabel is also a trans woman. As implied before, she works a job at a coffee shop with one of her girlfriends, Natsuki. Unlike Yuri, she has not made a career out of writing, but she does do it recreationally. She once was extremely afraid of affection, but after years of prodding from her lovers she has grown to be very mushy with her fellow girls. She and Sayori have a strong bond that the rest of the polycule sometimes admires, sometimes feels jealous of, spawned from the sheer amount of time theyāve known each other for (almost their entire lives), and this is not helped by Sayoriās insistence on making jokes about having dibs on Mabel ā and further not helped by Mabelās insistence on being flustered by this behaviour.
*Mabel is a character originating from one of my fics and I have secretly spent the last few months being unhinged about her.
**also, this isn't exactly a roleplay blog and asks won't be answered in character. you can like, make asks in character if you want, but I won't humor that.
***if this becomes another short lived fixation i lose interest in then i have failed
