The Schoolgirl Detective and Eccentric Author (Pt.2)

Teniwoha’s novel for his Schoolgirl Detective Series, “The Schoolgirl Detective and Eccentric Author – Night Before The Murder Case at the Mansion of Antiquarian Books,” acts as a prequel to the first song in the series, “Murder Case at the Mansion of Antiquarian Books,” and follows the events between the schoolgirl detective who loves mystery novels, Hanamoto Hibari, and the extremely sadistic mystery novel writer, Kudou Renma.

The second part in this three-part novel is called: Detective Time-Killing Game.

Under strange circumstances, Hibari becomes involved in a game with Kudou. After being given three clues by Kudou, she is to select the correct book from the huge collection he has in his home….

Kinda weird story, but I liked the mysteries. Thank you for translating this- I wish someone translates more books of this series

[sailorenna]

@amazemystery​ Hi! Just saw this, but thanks so much for reading my translation of this novel! It’s one of my favorite authors and series, though not that popular or well-known, maybe because of its quirkiness.

If you liked weird but engrossing myseteries like this one, I recommend the Edogawa Ranpo’s work! Teniwoha (who’s twitter handle is edogawa_sampo as a reference to this horror-mystery novelist) seems to really draw a lot of inspiration from Ranpo’s works, so you might find some similarities in themes and subject matter if you enjoyed Teniwoha’s stories.

He’s released 3 other books in this series, and I’m still only midway through reading the second one, but maybe one day when I find the time, I’ll try to translate the rest...

Again, thanks again for reading, reblogging, and leaving a comment! :) Translating this series was mainly out of indulgence as a pet project, so I’m happy whenever someone picks it up and gives it a read!

It’s been a while since I posted an update on Tumblr, but I am on Patreon making themed stickers, wallpapers, and other fun stuff every month! This month’s theme is Matcha & Mushrooms, featuring TWO (2) vinyl sticker sheets and 2 sets of mobile wallpapers, one for patrons and one a free set for everyone to use.

I’m also working on a 4x6″ print for the $20 tier, that I’ll hopefully be able to reveal in the upcoming week!

UPDATE: the sticker sheets have arrived! along with pixel stickers of my critters done by kael.pxl (on IG and Twitter) that she’s allowed me to use for my own Patreon rewards!

[rennatelier-archive]

This month on Patreon, I’m mailing out a polaroid photo-styled mini print! Still plenty of slots open, so you can get yours today by signing up before the end of the month!

Also, I’ve opened some slots for simple food commissions! (yes I spelled it wrong in the image) More details on my Kofi, but they’re just simple, cute foodie doodles for cheap!

I’m also trying to kickstart my small business and raise some money to help with production fees by soft opening my store on Ko-fi! I’m selling some handcut memo paper that I’ve designed, and stickers!

Please take a look if you’d like to support me in my journey and receive a cute package in the mail!

I’m making wallpapers and other digital content on gumroad! (and patreon!)

The kagepro wallpapers, and my patreon welcome wallpapers are free, and the summer stamps wallpapers are as little as $2, with part of the sales proceeds going towards buying stamps to try and keep the USPS from going under.

My patreon is still very baby, but I’d like to use it for releasing exclusive wallpapers, stickers, behind-the-scenes content and other things!

Today marks the first day of Pride 2020.

It also marks the seventh day of protests held in honor of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery. It’s been 634 days since Botham Jean was murdered by a police officer, 233 days since Atatiana Jefferson was fatally shot by a police officer, 2,123 days since Michael Brown was fatally shot by a police officer, and 2,146 days since Eric Garner was choked to death by a police officer. 

It has been five days since Tony McDade, a Black trans man from Florida, was shot and killed by a police officer.  

At the time of this post, it has been almost 19 hours since David McAtee was shot and killed by the authorities. 

This week has served as a stark reminder that those who have power in this country wield it recklessly and violently against Black people, non-Black POC, and trans people. For some, the power is found in their badge. In others, it’s their skin tone, their socio-economic status, their cisgender privileges, or any other number of privileges one can have. In 2018, with at least 26 trans people who were murdered, all but one was a trans woman, and all but one was a person of color. According to data collected by Human Rights Campaign, this pattern is all too common. It should also be noted that the number of trans people who are murdered is grossly underreported, with many families and newspapers often misgendering those who can no longer speak up for themselves. 

On June 28, 1969, the Stonewall riots began as a response to the constant police raids of nightlife establishments frequented by the LGBTQIA+ community. That night sparked a revolution, with many eye-witnesses crediting Black and Latinx trans women for being brave enough to ignite what would become one of the most pivotal nights in LGBTQIA+ history. Without Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera, there would have been no uprising. Without them, there would be no Pride. 

At this moment, it would be tone-deaf and insensitive to commemorate Pride in the same celebratory fashion we usually do. Instead, we’re asking you to make the commitment to better the lives of the oppressed. Do the work to become actively anti-racist if you are not Black. Spread the word that Black lives matter. Spread the word that trans people deserve to feel safe wherever they go. Reblog this post, make your own, or find someone in your life who doesn’t understand and do your best to make them understand. Donate if you can. 

The first Pride was a riot. We stand with you.

We insist on thinking of @staff as a monolithic entity, but I’m 99.99% certain it’s a small group of underpaid employees who have no power whatsoever over what Tumblr as a company does.  Whoever posted this was trying to be ethical and sensitive and did some research.  Don’t go off on them like a Karen at the grocery store yelling at the manager on duty because corporate policy is unfair. 

(seriously. I don’t know anyone on staff or anything about them, but I’ve worked in a similar position and know what it’s like.  And we’ve seen them stamp out several waves of pornbot assaults, they’re not just sitting on their hands over there.)

When you wake up on the first day of summer, there’s a box by your bed labeled “Everything You Couldn’t Get.” It’s locked, and whatever tools you use on it, you can’t even put a dent in it. You search for the key all summer. Naturally, you never find anything. Before long, summer ends, and the box disappears. And when summer comes again, the box by your bed is a little heavier.
