Just making a post here before I pass out and yes, I'm alive here too. I just don't post often as I'm not really a person who eagerly shares things about myself.
I want to improve myself by getting the initiative to post more often and meet new people. My crippling social anxiety makes it really hard for me to do so, but I really want to work on it this year.
I already mentioned it on my bluesky post but I'm currently looking for friends/mutuals who I can communicate with on here, bluesky or discord.
Here are my current interests at the moment are:
Metaphor: ReFantazio
Persona 5
Reverse:1999
Master Detective Archives: Rain Code
Honkai Star Rail
Enstars
The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy
Bungou Stray Dogs
Music Projects (such as Milgram, Hypnosis Mic and Alien Stage)
Visual Novels (such as YTTD, Danganronpa, Process of Elimination and Ace Attorney)
These are subject to change as all interests are but I hope I can improve upon my social skills and make someone's day a bit more interesting ^^.
Screaming louder for the people in the back since this seems to be a problem spreading throughout more games recently:
DON’T HIDE IMPORTANT PLOT POINTS AND CHARACTER MOTIVATIONS IN OPTIONAL INTERACTIONS/EVENTS!
People who only want to enjoy the baseline experience should not be left without crucial information that makes the story progress and develop as normal. For those that do wish to seek out extra secrets or further interact with the characters on their own time, then feel free to them those fun facts. While they add nice little details about characters or the setting previously established, they are still simply rewards for players that dedicate more time than the average person might to learning all there is to know about their favorite characters. The optional information should be relatively inconsequential, not be the entirety of the context surrounding why a character does what they do in the story. Otherwise, it is effectively punishing a grand majority of the playerbase by intentionally hiding information that should be known or revealed in the plot by certain points. Players are not at fault for missing a character’s optional dialogue or a small collectible when it is not treated with the same importance as the rest of the details provided in the main story. Knowing what and what not to reveal in the main story and when to reveal it can make or break an average player’s experience, and when it is not given proper diligence in ensuring a smooth reading for every type of player, that’s when the upset and confusion arises.
In which Makoto manages Kanai Ward's museum (formerly Ginma Dictrict's Art Gallery) during a time of festivities and old painful memories flood his mind.
I still can't believe that it's now been 2 years since this game came out and I'm still in love with the story and its characters... so I made a fic about my love for it! This Minibang has provided me the opportunity to do so, along with working with other Rain Code fic writers and artists. ^^
I won't lie, writing this piece was a little difficult as I've drawn some of Makoto's emotions from my own past experiences along with trying to brainstorm everything so that it all makes sense for a possible canon compliant story. But it all worked out in the end and I couldn't be more happier!
Special thanks to @jixuanji and Smollrawr for collabing with me and making beautiful arts for this fic and to @draconicsparkle for betareading! You guys are amazing! 💜

I never expected to get into this game and end up being obsessed with Takumi and Eito's relationship. Kodaka perfected the toxic yaoi formula and I'm eating it all up. It inspired me to write Aotsumi with the idea of an siren becoming growing an unhealthy obsession for a human where chaos and drama ensue. Nothing more and nothing less.

In which the king is privy to the extent of the traitor's gratitude.
Hoo boy, I would like to apologize for the long wait and offer this extra long chapter as a thank you for your patience.
This was a pretty interesting piece to write for several reasons. I always wanted to incorporate music into one of my works, but I never found the right opportunity to do so until now (and hopefully it stands up to par with the other chapters before it). Music has helped me a lot with whenever I struggled with my mental health or just overcoming stress in my daily life, so I ended up becoming quite attached to making sure this chapter is written the best way I could.
Is it self-indulgent? Yes. Does the existence of song I used make sense? Possibly not, but I enjoyed writing it and that's what matters most.

This Panda 🐼 returns with a new, and pretty long update! This chapter is over twice as long as the last one ^^.
Making this chapter was as time-consuming as it is to have fun while writing it (while following the planned notes this time). Can't say when the next update will come but without saying too much, it's pretty special because I haven't written or planned anything like it before I started posted fics online. Nonetheless, I hope you enjoy this new chapter of my fic!

Hello, it's me, Biggie (or Snivy)! In the past, I've worked with many lovely people to create the Neon Downpour fanthology zine (which is completely free to download, btw, if you haven't seen it yet!) and also ran last year's Rain Code Ship Week. Both were amazing, so I'm thinking of running another fandom event this coming spring or summer. With that in mind...
What sort of event would you like me to run next? (please see readmore for explanations)
Minibang
Character Collage Collab
Prompt Week (shipping and/or gen)
DTIYS
Other
I am not interested in a fandom event
Voting ended onFeb 20, 2025
NOTE: I will not be running another fanthology zine. As fun as it was, it's a lot of work and requires a lot of time I simply don't have.
Read below for more info:
Rain Code Minibang
A minibang is a fandom collab where fic writers and artists work together on a piece. The fic writer anonymously submits their summary of their idea, and the artists may either choose which summary they'd like to draw for. Or, if enough people are okay with it, I'll randomly assign partners. Once chosen, the artist and writer work together to make a oneshot fic + an accompanying illustration.
Character Collage Collab
This is something a little unique. It's inspired by a collaboration ran by milaza_dgs on twitter. It would be a collaborative project where every participant draws one character in the Rain Code cast each. Together, we'll end up having an art piece for every character, which I will arrange together in a pretty collage that links credits to every artist. I'll either be using carrd or brush up on my own CSS skills for the final product.
Prompt Week
Just as it sounds, a prompt week is when the host(s) give out a prompt for each day of the week, and everyone who wishes to participate can create whatever they want to match that prompt. I'll then reblog/retweet it to the main account hosting this prompt week. As for shipping or gen, you can specify in the tags which you would prefer, or if you'd rather it just be both.
DTIYS
DTIYS stands for "Draw This In Your Style." The host shares a base image and anyone who wants to participate can redraw the piece in their own art style. It could be a contest, or it could simply be for fun.
If you have any other suggestions, I would love to hear them! Also, if anyone is interested in co-running one of these events, please let me know!
In which the traitor's awakening brings grave repercussions.
Panda 🐼 here! Back with a new update!
Oh boy, my draft ran away with me on this one. I pretty much ignored the planning notes in my drafts but the finished chapter somehow ended up better I expected! The power of brainrot truly conquers all. Hope you enjoy the latest chapter of my fic!

An Archive of Our Own, a project of the

In which the traitor is forced to face his new reality.
Hello, Panda 🐼 here!
I know I said I'll be posting fic updates here more often but real life and other responsibilities had me pretty busy. I also got pretty obsessed over Metaphor: ReFantazio when it first came out so I decided to make a fic about it! I personally loved how Louis was handled as the main villain and his relationship to Will, and the fic idea stayed in my head for a while before I decided to finally put it into text. I'm not sure when the next updates for my fics would come considering my busy schedule, but I hope who see this would enjoy it nonetheless ^^.

An attempt at compiling assorted memorandum info & in-game dialogue to create a somewhat comprehensive timeline for the game. Feel free to use/add to the source as needed!
Please note: this is a collaborative project!!
If adding or seeking to change info, please mark the source & refrain from deleting other’s work.
This document is also still very much a WIP; I will clean it up and make it more organized as time goes on. Right now, I'm focusing on compiling information!
If you have, like me, also been compiling way too much information from random voicelines and flavor text, this document is absolutely open for your use and organization as well.
Let me know if you have any issues accessing the document, and I hope this project is of use to you!
Please Note: I swear to god I WILL make this pretty and organized at some point. I will likely end up separating the information according t

i love harrassing gimmick blogs. nc, this is payback for bullying me that one time
This looks like fun! @draconicsparkle @keliharuza @greenninjaren @pandalynx789 @geodraws04 If you guys want to try it out (if you don’t like being pinged, I apologize and will never do it again to you).
Can confidently say I had never expected to use picrew, but ain’t life full of surprises? Anyhoo, I be sneaking around in the woods. Doing what? Fun things.
Thanks for tagging me Elina! And here are a few people to tag.
