5 Things That Make Me Happy!!

Thank you very much for tagging me @pickle-scribbles​ <3 And what a cute challenge!!!!

So, things that make me happy, silly and important, recent or not!!

1) My dog's silly sleeping positions! That dog just fails to sleep like a normal one. No clue why!! But that always brings an idiotic smile to my face :)

We love our silly doggie!! He’s responsible for at least half the smiles in our household every day lol

2) Everytime I interact with someone in the fandom. I'm a normally a shy person and quite hesitant to approach others. So whenever I get to talk to any of you incredible people or hear that my comment on a story or art has made the creator happy, I really feel overjoyed!! I love you all <3

3) I'm from Greece and everytime I see works inspired or related to greek language or mythology I feel like I'm on cloud nine! Also the one time someone asked me advice related to that I was beyond myself with happiness!!

4) Kojuro from SLBP!! The existence of this man alone is enough to make me happy!!! I love how he treats MC during his route! I love how much he cares about Masamune and Shigezane (even though he scolds the latter too much)! I'm dying every time he apologetically calls MC "miss"! And there's this golden moment from an event which brings a smile on my face EVERY SINGLE TIME!!

5) The fact that in recent months I'm getting closer with my brother. We started living in the same house again last year since we go to universities in the same city and it was very bumpy and difficult at first!! But now it's a lot better and it makes me very happy when he approaches me to talk to me or to do something fun together and he is also offering help when asked!!

And one honorable mention, since I recently rewatched it with my brother: Gon and Killua in suits! Pleasy let me adopt them both!!

This was so fun! If anyone who sees this post wants to give it a go please feel free to! I think we could all use a little positivity these days!! I would like to tag @frywen-babbles​, @thegreenfairy25​ and @tentori21​! Of course no pressure :)

HI EVERYONE.

i miss you all. i miss writing. life has not been kind to me these last few months lol but im trying to get back into writing. not sure when i'll be able to flesh anything out enough to post, but i am trying!

just hard bc for some reason i feel like i need to write out all this plot (or unnecessary info, rlly) before getting to the point of my pieces but honestly that gets tiring...AH!

just dropping by to let yall know im thinking of yall and will be back soon :D

[ginkgo-phyta]

writing this dom!spencer fic* is proving more difficult than anticipated...it's feeling quite ooc but imma continue to push through for y'all!! however...been mulling over a quick sorta-sub!spencer piece i think i want to write out quickly :P so keep your eyes peeled if you're into that

(*also sorry for not having it out yet, i keep coming home from work absolutely exhausted hahahaha)

Regarding you asking our thoughts on your last piece which I believe is a blurb (I'm trying to understand the technicalities and differences between blurbs and full on pieces tbh BUT) I enjoyed reading it, it put the setting in my head and I was able to imagine it in my head with all your descriptors and as a non native speaker I actually learned some new words which I'm really fond off! One thing though, I'd appreciate it if u break up the paragraphs with a space, cus reading one whole text intact is very difficult, I'm not sure if it's an individual thing or an actual writing thing, but that would be a bonus. I feel like it pushes away readers from reading your writing, which is what would've happened to me but I'm a fan of your writing and stalk ur page religiously whenever u post so blurb wise we good. Writing wise like on your answered requests, you're really good, your stylistic choices are very nice and go well together, and your attention to detail is immaculate, especially when setting scenes before dialogue which is really top notch. The fact that you're still attempting to improve your writing is already a writer green flag and a good quality for a writer to have, so keep up honey and I'll eat up everything you give us. Muah!!

stoppp im literally about to cry. first of all thank you so much for the feedback!!! yeah i dont think i even do blurbs right in the first place, they're supposed to be short but usually i end up typing a bunch anyway bahaha from my understanding both blurbs and drabbles are super informal...it actually was really hard for my to write without capitalizing or breaking up the paragraphs it just feels so wrong, but i've seen others do it...BUT NOW IMMA BREAK EM UP W YOUR ENCOURAGEMENT SO THANK YOU HAHAHA

secondly ilysm thank you for your kind words about my writing, it's been difficult getting pieces out lately but i try my best! i hope i can continue feeding you teehee

y'all i am in the business of developing my writing skills: please PLEASE let me know your thoughts on my pieces, i'd really appreciate it! thru comments, reblog tags, or anon messages- constructive criticism is eagerly welcomed!! yes i am begging. and what about it.

((tried a new voice with my last piece, i'm actually quite happy w it but it's not performing as well as my other stuff. is it cuz the format, or length, or just the writing? spare sum thoughts? oh, how i wish i could read peoples minds))
