The Sam nation will kill me for saying this but it must be said!!! Dean looked hot in Faith 1x12!!! He looked hot dying from heart failure! If I can find Sam at his most beautiful when he’s wretched and dying and sickly and barely on his feet I should be allowed to find Dean dying from heart failure to be just as hot!!!!! I will not be silenced!!!!!!!!!!

i am always saying this

Excuse me, miss Demon Princess, how does one become a loader and/or artillery maid?

Poise, diligence, and manual dexterity.

Helloo! I greatly admire all the work you've been doing for Senyuu and huge huge huge thanks as someone who adores this series so much 🥺 I was wondering, is there a contination to Main Quest? If I'm not wrong the last released chapter was MQ Part 2's ch. 40 of volume 4, how far the MQ manga goes if it does? Did Haruhara ever made/planned to make a Part 3? And if so, is there any plans to translate it?

Hi anon! Main Quest is fully complete at six volumes, and covers all of season 2 of Senyuu. It's just not fully scanlated because I'm lazy 🙈 (I apologize.)

If anyone else wants to pick it up, please feel free. I'd also be happy to be a translator alone... it's just the typesetting part that's the main pain point...

I'm an artist working on a comic of supernatural characters, and I've been finding myself designing or creating characters in a way to improve what Viv did badly in. For example, Adam. One complaint I've heard is that an angel has horns. I don't mind an angel having, but Adam looks more like an angelic redesign of Blitz. I get he's supposed to be a horrible person, but it seems too on the nose. I actually have a character with horns leader of the Powers in my story whis not fully a good angel. Hes been existing before Adam was leaked, but seeing how Viv has written Adam, I've been wanting to make his character for subtle about how horrible he is to thr public

Viv's work and the Fandom has actually gave me alot of inspiration for my story and art. I just hate how it turned out everything turned out. But I guess i can always just improve what she failed. Thanks for the reading. Maybe I'll post again if people want to learn more about my story

Lot of stories being created through a Vivzie-inspired lens of "what not to do" right now. It's pretty magical.

Which Phase is your favourite and least favourite, in terms of design, characterization and interactions, story/lore, music, etc?

This is a tough question because there are so many phases now, and because I like certain things from different phases. I've answered questions similar to this one before, too. I'll start with my unpopular opinion first (shouldn't be a surprise to long time followers).

Least favorite: Plastic Beach. If you want me to expand on this, I can, but I've talked about this before. I don't really understand the hype this phase gets, but also know a lot is subjective. I wasn't a big fan of the music either, but like it slightly better that TNN's music.

Favorite: Honestly, there are elements I liked from all the other phases. I love the music from P1 and P2, as well as the content (ROTO in particular - so long and thorough). I really enjoyed P4 as well! The music was good, though wasn't my favorite, but the aesthetic (haunted house in the city, apocalyptic dance party) was one of my favorites. I didn't miss having an ongoing story line in the end, thought at the time I expected it (I was a new fan filled with hope lmao). I've said this before, too, but I honestly like looking at the evolution of Murdoc's character over each phase. Somehow, they've managed to keep him fresh while the other characters kind of pale in comparison. TNN and SM were both amazing for 2Doc. CI was just okay, 2Doc wasn't as strong or authentic, but I didn't completely hate it.

Worse tumblr vampire and how would you kill them

idk about the worst, i haven't got to know them all yet

tho that guy who was arguing that its okay to have ghouls and treat them like shit was a real piece of work. i'd like to take him down to the seaside and watch the sunrise~♡

there was also that creep arguing about how it's soooo cool to abuse hospital patients. think i'd poison them, watch them freak out for a bit, then a quick mercy shotgun to the head

i'm real sweet, see (>ᴗ•)

hi lovey! i just came across your a03 page with your gilmore girls fic and can i just applause you for the talent. i also was wondering if you could give any advice on writing rory x jess! i’m quite new to the fandom and have a rather cool idea but i guess im a little nervous to write etc.

is there anything advice? like anything i should look out for? what really pops etc?

sorry this message is really annoying </33333

this is not annoying at all omg!! I'm actually really flattered that you like my writing enough to ask me for advice ajsjfj I don't know how much help I can be but I can try!! if you have more specific questions I think I can be more helpful, though. also, a lot of fic writing comes down to individual tastes and style, I think, and what works for me may not work for others. that being said, I'll share some broader tips!!

first: outlines!! it's been very trial and error and I often deviate from it at least a little, but trying to map out your story beforehand helps you keep a consistent direction and can just be really useful. it doesn't work for everyone, but I always need to know where I'm going. however — and I've learned this from experience — don't try to map out scenes from start to finish. it can take away the fun of writing and most of the time you'll deviate from that anyway. if you have an idea for how you want the scene to end or lines you want to use do write that down, but an outline isn't binding. it's a living document and is more of a guide rather than a plan set in stone.

for jess and rory, it's really important to me as both a writer and a reader that they are both in character. I immediately stop reading or trash a scene if it doesn't seem like something that would happen. often literati writers like to vent their frustrations against rory by having jess yell at her for cheating with him and "tell her off" or some shit, which... he just wouldn't do. like, he's expressed his frustrations before, both times, but a lot of writers don't make it so much about his feelings rather than their own. make sure that their reactions to the other are how THEY would react, and not your own opinions on the characters.

in a similar vein, I also think that stories are more interesting to read when the narration isn't so much a diatribe on the reader's opinions and analyses rather than how the characters are feeling. like I have rory's insecurities really clear in my writing, but that's not because I think she isn't good enough. she is, but I also don't write that, because that isn't what she's thinking!! this might not make much sense but I don't like writing my fics as meta analyses (although I did do that a lot at first) — that's what tumblr is for!

also: parallels are really fun, and I am obsessed with them, but don’t overdo it. fics are fun because they’re original stories, and a handful of callbacks are really fun, but fics are more run to write and read when the scenes feel new. if we got more episodes, I’d want to have new scenes with them, not repeats of their past. so while parallels are great, and I love bringing back locations such as the bridge, make sure you’re not leaning on their old scenes too much. I’ve used it as a crutch a lot before and I feel like it hindered my creativity and originality. 

all this being said, remember that your first fic is not going to be your magnum opus. I can’t even look at my first one because I hate it so much — it has a lot of the things I just said I don’t like to do. but don’t let that fear of bad writing scare you away! I don’t love my writing personally, I have a lot of insecurities about it, but my new writing is so much better than what I was doing two years ago. and I wouldn’t have been able to reach this point if I hadn’t written my first one. chances are, even if you look back in a while and cringe, there are going to be people who love it anyway. it’s totally normal to be nervous to write and want to do it perfectly — I’m still like that, honestly — but it is really, really fun and enjoyable. don’t put too much pressure on yourself to write the best literati fic of all time. I try not to compare myself to other writers too much, but being inspired by others is also completely fine! it’s hard not to hate your own writing when there are others who are so incredibly talented, but don’t let that stop you. good luck with writing!! you can do it!! and feel free to ask any other questions you may have and I’ll do my best to help :)
