characters who believe that they are inherently unlovable 🔥🔥🔥

there’s no variation on this trope that isn’t absolutely peak. “im unlovable but i desire that connection so ill let myself be used instead”? peak. “im unlovable so ill drive everyone away” is automatically peak however you play it. “i am an unlovable thing so i will become a new person who isn’t”? peak beyond belief!!! i love characters 🥰

It's literally always at least four main characters for me lmao.

What's the worst thing that could happen to your main character? What piece of themselves would be the hardest to lose? What belief or hope are they clinging that could be stripped away? What is it that they fear the most? What would shatter their heart? What can strip your character of the lies they tell themselves and force them to face a harsh truth?

What irreversible event could break your character so that they can never be who they once were?

And how can you make it their own fault?

That's your story's midpoint.

I just found out that my writing from WattPad where I posted my lyrics for my music project was stolen and posted on TeenFic... What can I do about this? And what does this mean about my ownership of the writing???

Novel Updates

My dad has finally started reading Chapter Four of my novel, which is the last of what I've written so far. He likes what he's read so far and says it's easy to follow along. After he's done, I'm going to ask other people close to me if they'd want to read the first four chapters, and then after that I might ask if anyone on here is interested. :)

I have some ideas for what I want to rename my novel instead of "AI-One" but for now I'm still deciding on them. I'm not on here much nowadays, but I hope all of my mutuals are doing well. ❤️

I will let you know in a separate post when and how you can read these chapters if you're interested ☺️

Love,

Stan 🥰

I'm not sure if I already talked about this here, but I have finished the first FOUR chapters of my novel, currently under the prototype name "AI-One." They've been finished for about a month, and before then, I was on a massive editing spree after I finished their first drafts.

I currently have my dad reading these finished chapters. They span 60 pages double spaced, and the word count is around 18000 words. Once I have a few more people close to me read them, I might ask if anyone here would like to read it as well.

I'm also still figuring out what to rename it, as I don't want it to be associated with AI 😅. And soon I will be back to working, so I might again have less time to write. But such is life. I've also been away from here for quite a while. 🥺

Love,

Stan 🥰

Low-key thinking of changing the title of my novel "AI-One" again because even though it got its name by accident and it sounded cool at the time, I don't want it to be confused or associated with Artificial Intelligence. Even Javi's Bio-Phone (called the AI-One 😭) is more of a glorified smartphone/nurse than an AI engine 😅

Okay so the other day, I forgot that bears existed until I saw a video of a bear in a jacuzzi, but today I realized I forgot garden hoses existed. 😭 Now I feel like I should keep track of this.

I forgot that islands existed.

I forgot that car alarms existed.

I forgot that gophers existed.

I forgot that Justin Bieber existed.

I forgot that soda existed.

I forgot that speed limits existed.

Entering 2025 still not having written several things I planned in my head, but at least I have almost THREE chapters of AI-One completed and edited like crazy lol. So I'm thankful for that. I still need to work on The Nico Chronicles because I have to complete the stories that take place in early 2023 through 2024, and I need to do so while that timeframe is still fresh in my mind.

And I have a couple of things to say:

I'm sorry that I haven't been active these last couple years since I've joined. I think I spread myself out thin thinking I could read everyone's stories and be there as an online friend, but life had other plans. I don't know if anyone expected me to be active or feels like I let them down in any way, but I'm sorry if I did. I honestly don't expect 2025 to be any different. I might only check here from time to time, sparsely, like a ghost that pops in every now and then. My heart shifted my focus to my songwriting, and it stays there for now. I'll continue to work on AI-One and The Nico Chronicles from time to time, and maybe I'll post some of them on my WattPad one day. But I still owe Tumblr a debt of gratitude for reviving my will to write.

See you all in 2025, my friends! When and for how long, I'm not so sure, but you'll see more of me. :)

Delusion proportional to my acuity.

My beloved mutual,

I wander the moors wondering when you will return from the war. The ghost in the attic misses you terribly.

Are you well? Have you intentionally rested lately? There is a hole in my dash where once your username sat.

Hello, friend :)

It's been a while since I've logged onto Tumblr. For the most part, I have been doing well lately, other than right now I actually have Covid 😭 but I have indeed been resting intentionally and being kind to my mind, body, and spirit. I haven't been writing much lately, but once I get settled into my semester again, I might return to it. I've been using Twitter mostly whenever I go on social media since it's where I usually keep up with pop culture 😆 lol. But logging on here is always nice 🥰 and it's such an escape from everyday stress and negativity. I should be on here more often 😌

good morning! (or whatever time it is where you are)

i'm trying to be more active reaching out to folks, so: hello, friendly moot. how are things going for you? are the muses (or preferred source of creativity) still treating you kindly?

if not, do you want to talk about something else? what's going on in your life? is it fun? does it suck?

also, i'm curious: i know the significance of the "one," but has the "ai" part come to mean anything more than roman numerals over the years you've been working on it?

Hello! Nice to hear from you! Lately the muses have been speaking to me, but in a different way. I've been mostly working on songs over the last year and I've made only slight progress on AI-One, but progress is progress 🥹 Lately life has been uneventful, but I return back to my research lab soon for my Master's ❤️

Funny you ask that about AI-One because I know I've been dying to find an excuse to use the prototype name as the actual name for the novel, and I found it! AI-One refers to the name of the Bio-Phone my character Jack is the sole beta tester for. AI stands for the tech company's initials, and its name is Amphro-Ileasis, hence "AI."

Thank you for your ask and for reaching out! I'm glad I got to share that with at least one person :)

Oopsies! Damn autocorrect! My character's name is Javi, not Jack 😂

One of the biggest things I've taken away from the last year or so is that negative emotions aren't bad. I've spent so much time trying to be positive and happy that sometimes I bottle up feelings that need to be experienced and processed. There's a place for every emotion. We can't control a lot of that, but we can still control how we react to or deal with our negative emotions.
