“Aren’t you forgetting something? You never even said hello,” Dina called Abby out, giving her a quick look up and down and extending her cheek towards her, giving it a gentle tap with her finger.

for every "🌹" received in my inbox i'll post one random sentence of a random WIP i'm currently writing

🕊️ What's a piece of art that is meaningful or left a lasting impression on you?

D: insane to make me choose just one btw

The Beginners Guide which is an interactive storytelling game where you explore a curation of video games developed by a guy named Coda, while his friend Davey narrates and tries to dive into coda’s artistic and mental process while making the games.

No spoilers, it’s only like 2 hours long, I just watched a gameplay years ago, but it’s one of the most bizarre, brilliant, chilling, simple pieces of media that has left me so sad and yet so thoughtful about art and our relationship with art and our relationship with other people’s art etc etc

🪡 What's a skill you have that you're really proud of?

I am a fairly good specialty barista :)

💫 Choose one of the following objects to have: Mini bubble wand, sparkly d20 with a flower inside, small ceramic sleeping kitty, tiny jar of pastel paper stars, pull-back racecar toy, clicky frog-themed glitter pen, starry connected collar pins.

Sparkly d20 with a flower inside. I don’t play dnd but I’ve always wanted to!

Thank you for the ask my friend!!!

37. hazy by chloe x halle

so this is actually on a couple of ship playlists- tessjoel, sally/poseidon, ghoulcy, and hayffie! i got OBESSED with chloe x halle's ungodly hour album earlier this year (as everyone should, imo) and this song was easily my favorite. it fits these ships in particular (for me) because of the lyric 'come love me like you hate me' and these ships are rather...toxic, lmao. just how i like 'em.

✍️ What’s your ideal writing setup?

I was writing today sitting on my bed with some fairylights on and there was a thunderstorm happening so that was pretty god tier tbh. I like putting on some tunes that fit the vibe but I LOVE writing when it's raining. And in the evening, I've a bad habit of staying up too late.

💥 What is one canon thing that you wish you could change?

I dunno, I feel I'm not too bothered about getting worked up about canon because that's what fic is for. Even things like character deaths etc happen for the good of that particular story, then we can play with what ifs in fandom which I love. We can have it all!

(But Joel pulling that broken baseball bat that he was stabbed with out was stupid. That is bad practice for dealing with stab wounds. If you're stabbed you should keep the object in place and apply pressure around it. Pulling out the object happens so often in movies that one of my niche fears is that one day I'll be stabbed and bleed out cause someone thought it would be better to remove the object)

💭 What inspires you and your writing?

I love taking one thing and changing it up. I write a lot of AUs and magical realism so I love to play with canon and see what happens when I add something different into mix. I'm inspired by nature and queerness so those themes feature a lot. I'm inspired by how amazing this world is!

Fanfic ask game

31, 33 & 40 for the ask game! :)

(Questions here.)

31. What was the most difficult fic for you to write (but in the end you made it)?

Of my TLOU fic, probably love and laughter? It was my first show-verse fic and it took me a bit to figure out the voices and the changes.

33. Give your writing a compliment.

Oh, god, I'm terrible at this.

I think my TLOU fic is pretty good?

I am not succint enough for 40 I'm sorry XD
