hi guyi~ I wanted to pop in and say I miss your writing!! I still reread it for comfort even though it's been years and now I'm in uni and thinking about writing fanfic again

hello!

thank you for your message - i still get the email notifications from tumblr whenever anyone messages, replies, or mentions me and i saw this one from you (i remember you!) and wanted to log on and let you all know that i'm still so, so grateful my writing has been bringing you and many others joy even in this blog's stagnant state.

lots has changed in my life in the last four years and i couldn't be happier with where i am now. i moved cities, began a serious relationship with the love of my life, graduated from university and started grad school, and lots more in between! part of the reason why i hesitate to return to tumblr is because this part of my life now feels very dated and contained to who i was when i was still an underclassman in college -- very separate from who i am now.

that is all to say that i actually have been sitting on some fics for several years now and there are other parts of my life and love for writing that are drawing me back (most of all, bts is finally reunited lol). i guess i shouldn't have really mentioned that because i don't want to bait you all into thinking i'm returning because i really just don't have the dedicated time to spend on this blog anymore, but i am still thinking about returning to writing and posting in a very sparing way. maybe. it's hard to say. i could never go back to the amount of engagement i used to give this blog, but i never forgot about you all.

lots of love and thanks to you and anyone else who reads this and still follows this 5-year-old inactive blog.

hi! you're the only haikyuu blog I follow because you're amazing and I'm just bingereading your top 5 posts, and you talked about how Yamaguchi and Hinata hangout outside of school in the manga - where do you read your manga?

Hello petal! Thank you so much for your sweet words ♥️ 

I keep up with haikyuu -> here <- it’s the official release, free and legal for everyone! It might not be good for people who want to binge read past chapters though because it only has the newest ones. 

If you need to read past chapters, send me a DM here and I’ll show you the way ♥️

since someone has already recommended six of crows (a must read, i could talk about it for hours!), i'll recommend the astonishing colour of after. tw, depression and suicide, but the prose is beautiful and the character growth! mm! the asian representation! love it. heartstopper by alice oseman is a webcomic so you can read it on her tumblr or webtoon, and i'd also recommend the night circus, the most gorgeous fantasy novel ever

omg thank you!! the asian representation...we love to see it!!! 😌😌

hi! I went through all your tags but I can't seem to find this fic... it's a two-shot jimin fic where they're in an arranged marriage and every summer, jimin goes to her house. they hate each other and to break their marriage they introduce each other to other people - oc to jungkook. because they're not going to be married, they become friends and fall for each other. i'm pretty sure they had a water fight. sorry if any of the details are wrong, i read it a rlly long time ago :(

hi, this was found by googling:

jimin arranged marriage “water fight” bts fanfic tumblr

this sounds like dearly beloved by @btees

hi guyi 🥺 this is my third ask in a week and i hope i'm not bothering you but how do you choose/write your resolutions? if it were up to me, i'd end all my fics after the climax but no can do and this might be why i never finish them :(( hope you're staying safe!

hmm... this is gonna sound super nerdy but ever since i learned about this in 10th grade english i’ve been following the basic structure of freytag’s pyramid:

basically, every point of the pyramid is a new section of the story--i sometimes leave out the reversal and falling action (especially if my fic is getting super long) but i always make sure to include the denouement, which is a fancy word for conclusion where everything gets resolved (mostly). this is very technical but knowing each of these terms and what they mean in regards to a story is really helpful for plotting/writing!!! think of it as a checklist. hope this helps!!

hi guyi! it's been awhile. where do you find the images for your fic headers?? i've seen a few asks where you answer this but i can't seem to find them anymore...

hi!! you can find this answer in my faq, actually but it’s a little outdated! any pictures without the member i find on unsplash, but member pictures i take from official photoshoots (as i know lots of fansites have copyright over their photos, so editing them is not allowed!)

WHEN?!!! GUYI I HAD NO IDEA YOU POSTED INTO THE WILDERNESS AND OMG OMG I'LL READ IT TOMORROW BECAUSE IT'S NEARLY MIDNIGHT BUT AHH I HAVE SINNED, I'M SORRY QUEEN

i said i was going to read it tomorrow, but then i read it. and i want to cradle that fic forever because it hurt me and it healed me in a soft, sunset-tinted way. idek, i have no words, but i really, really liked 'into the wilderness'. it was amazing! i'm probably going to reread that fic whenever i feel lonely, and i want to be cocooned by beautiful words. i love the setting, the little details like the murky lemonade, and the wackiness of the side characters. thank you for another masterpiece

haha thank you so much for reading it !!!!! it definitely is one of the favorites on this blog (i know i say that abt everything but i really mean it with ITW) !! it just feels like a nice warm campfire hug tbh. i’m so happy that you enjoyed it and im sorry im getting to this ask so late ahhhhhhhhh but much love to you!!!!! 💜💜💜
