God, I love marking you. And, yes, it’s to show that you’re mine, but it’s more satisfying to know that you’ll see them there. That you’ll think of my mouth, my hands, my touch, my eyes on you. You are so incredible, and I just can’t believe I get to touch you. I get to be with you, like this; vulnerable. I can’t believe that I’ve been given that trust. I love marking you, I don’t know how to explain it. It’s like I want to be closer, so much closer. I want to feel you. I crave you and your sounds, I crave to be something to you, with you. I crave to be remembered. It’s as much a fervent ‘I’m yours’ as it is a ‘you’re mine’.

Written for @georgeyani​‘s ER doctor Yamaguchi AU. This fic reminded me of what it means to write when I was rejected for a project I really wanted to be a part of. I wrote this while listening to a mix of songs from Maison Ikkoku, 80s Japanese music, and Daft Punk’s Something About Us lol, and what came out of it was this vaguely soap-opera-ish monster of a fic. Hope you enjoy! Please consider leaving a comment if you enjoyed it.

Allow me to also take this chance to announce that the @yamakagezine is in the works. Applications will open in June, do keep an eye out!

Have a great weekend, everyone!

Just finished the first draft of my next fic. 43K words of Yamakage will be coming...after I'm done editing and beta-reading!!!

EXCITEMENT.

So I’m staying off Tumblr for a bit (because burnout and all that), I’ll be hanging out on instagram/discord/skype, message me if you’d like to keep in touch! Ta for now.

There is value to be found in every single drawing. Sometimes it’s in technique, sometimes it’s in story, sometimes it’s in emotion… Sometimes in it’s in that one mistake that ruined everything and the things you learnt from it.

On social media, any one of those things can be recognised, or none of them can. Because art is subjective, and your audience may not measure value in the same way that you do.

On tumblr in particular, there is a huge focus on content that is relatable. People enjoy media that speaks to them and to the things that they are interested in. It’s why fandoms exist and why fanworks are so popular.

The harsh truth is that no one can be forced to consume media that they aren’t interested in. If people can’t find reason to support a creator, namely because their content doesn’t speak to them, they are completely within their right -no matter how much love the artist has poured into their work (or how great it would be if we did all support each other).

Since creator and consumer don’t owe each other anything right off the bat, it’’s important to stop relying on that relationship when it comes to making art. Of course, the creator could always adapt their content to fit their audience, but that’s an attitude that could become quite unhealthy.

So instead, you should work towards realising that what you’re creating is valuable and precious and unique -no matter how much attention it did or didn’t get. 

I don’t care if you started yesterday, if you think your art is bad, if your last post got two likes and the only reblog was from yourself  -the very act of creating is so inherently beautiful and you should be proud of yourself. You don’t need validation or permission to keep drawing. But if you really want it, then know that I’m proud of you, that your grind motivates me to work, and that you have my and everyone else’s blessing to go and create the things that only you can.

A reminder that all the best people were once beginners. If you want to become really good at something, keep practicing even when you don’t see progress immediately. You can’t see it, but you’re improving a little bit every time you practice. Keep going and one day you’ll be amazing at it.
