4 anos de Loonamoon, e-book de aniversário e individuais
Nesta exata data, o Loonamoon está completando 4 anos de existência. Mas o que exatamente isso significa, além de claro, ser apenas mais um ano no calendário? O Loonamoon passou por diversas fases que fazia qualquer um que tenha projeto, ficar mais desmotivado do que nunca. Desde a falta de demanda, a onda de projetos morrendo e a nossa plataforma principal de postagem que pouco ajuda em questão de dinâmica.
Passamos por altos e baixos (mais altos do que baixos), mas nem isso nos abalou, continuamos aqui. Sim, depois de 4 anos, a gente ainda tá aqui. Pode até ser orgulho da nossa parte, mas a verdade é que a administração do Loonamoon ama ele demais para deixar ele ir agora, ou mais tarde, entenda-se como quiser. Então, se depender de nós, vai durar por muito tempo, enquanto houver pessoas na staff, ele irá existir. O Loonamoon só vai acabar quando ninguém mais se importar com ele.
Normalmente ficamos emocionais nesta data do ano, mas é muito fácil ficar assim dado que, tudo que nós construímos e conquistamos foi com o nosso próprio esforço. A categoria do Loona é praticamente morta, há algumas pessoas que ainda alimentam ela, mas nós estamos sempre lá desde muito antes do grupo debutar oficialmente, postando para quem quiser ler e se houver alguém para ler. E quando não tem alguém de fora lendo, de dentro tem eu, tem a Vic, tem o beta. Nenhum trabalho é desperdiçado. O Loonamoon ama cada coisa que já foi postada, nada nunca foi apagado, nada nunca foi deixado de postar, porque cada trabalho é importante, cada trabalho teve um tempo de vida gasto e nós jamais iríamos querer que seja um tempo perdido.
Levando isso em consideração, é por conta disso que nós admiramos cada um que está na staff, vocês simplesmente não precisavam estar fazendo o que fazem, mas sempre tão lá pela gente, adotando as nossas ideias e fazendo elas acontecerem. Seja na parte da escrita, de correção ou de capas, cada um desempenha o papel que foi proposto maravilhosamente bem.
Estar em um projeto ativo hoje em dia é praticamente uma conquista, não há muitos por aí atualmente, mas o Loonamoon está aqui, para mostrar que nada feito nesses quatro anos foi em vão. Não é a falta de dinâmica dentro de uma plataforma que vai acabar com ele, vai ser a falta de interesse que irá ocorrer no futuro. Enquanto isso não acontece, a nossa staff vai ser receber o nosso famoso e-bookversário, feito todos os anos, com a construção do universo do Loonamoon.
E como no ano passado, fanfics que alcançaram um mínimo de palavras também vão ganhar e-book, só que, um individual, diagramado, personalizado e com um projeto gráfico único feito pela administração do Loonamoon. Os e-books individuais irão ser postados e divulgados no sábado que vem (4). As fanfics que vão ter e-book são:
A Lei Lírica das Luas (themandragora)
A conexão inusitada de uma viagem no tempo (itscupcake)
Revolt (newfront)
Felicidade suficiente ou insuficiente (thewizarrding)
A biblioteca de Erastóstenes (shibuya)
Loira lunar (soulie)
O minuto que antecede o fim (desfleurskan)

Dois amores em um só tom (after-thought)
Adorada bruxa que nunca será minha (fixchuu)
Os segredos ficam fora do campo (after-thought)
Dona dos meus pesadelos (pinklitz)
DISCLAIMER: Lembrando que todo este trabalho é amador, nós não trabalhamos com isso, é tudo feito de graça, sem fins lucrativos e de fã para fã, apenas para agradecer por tudo que fizeram pela gente durante todo o ano.

LOONAVERSE-001
2022
ABSTRACT
The creation of LOONAVERSE is always interesting in its topic, how Jeon Heejin discovered the universe, how she manipulates time and space to unfold multiple stories and created a different personification of animals in the forms of humans (well, mostly human). In this joke of a dissertation/research paper, the author will analyze how LOONAVERSE was created from the perspective of Heejin as the "ruler" of LOONAVERSE, how the Alternate Universe presents itself from 12 perspectives of a human living a different life, how they all interact, and how it all relates to Friedrich Nietzsche's view on the creation of the universe.
Long ago, the four nations lived in peace; Goddess, Angels, Celestial Beings (if you know you know), and Humankind, also simps. These nations lived in peace, until the ruler of Valhalla, Jeon Heejin, decided to play with Humans, and created the LOONAVERSE. Heejin’s creation of the cosmos infuriated the other goddess, as she converted those angels into the embodiment of animals inside the universe she created. Heejin realized that the invention she had made could give rise to intriguing stories with several, but unconnected episodes (well, some of the chapters connected in some way), and somehow the angels found themselves living a different existence, not as deities but as humans. (Although a particular goddess found herself as an android, but turned into a human sometimes in the chapter, idk the stories and theories are WILD). These angels have no idea what has happened to them, but they feel as if something or someone has tampered with their lives, and they continue to live their new lifestyle while searching for an explanation.
Heejin, while creating the universe, becomes interested in becoming a part of it as she transforms into a different person, and she questions what will happen to her friends. In this again, joke of a dissertation, the author decided to delve into the creation of the so-called LOONAVERSE, How Jeon Heejin messes up the lives of her friends, the angels, and how it relates to Friedrich Nietzsche's concept of the universe, as well as an analysis of the traits of each goddess. With the development of this dissertation, a research issue arose: "Can each separated goddess communicate with the other?"
THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
(P.S. This is an optional chapter you can skip; this is just me being addicted to creating dissertations).
In this research, the author uses Friedrich Nietzsche’s view of the Universe. Nietzsche, although well known as a philosopher, contributed himself to other work that belongs to various degrees, such as art and physics. Nietzsche’s view of the universe correlates with Roger Boscovich, a physicist, and also philosopher, view of force, which Nietzsche wrote in this book, Beyond Good and Evil, that quotes “Boscovich taught us to renounce belief in the last bit of earth that did ‘stand still’, the belief in ‘matter’, in ‘material’…” Nietzsche also views that the universe, or world, is due to the involvement of “Force”. To the detriment of materiality, Nietzsche emphasized the concept of force (Kraft), in that the physical universe is a manifestation of forces, which, in Nietzsche's view, are interpreted as wills to power (Nietzsche, 1886). This, in turn, makes Nietzsche a firm believer that the concept of “force” is nothing but an empty word, that needs to be explained with a “supplementation”, and the said “will to power” is what Nietzsche believe to be the completion of said Force.
Nietzsche described the world as it is in his writings as a universe filled with force, with no origin, end, or definite amount, and that the world is, as Nietzsche previously said, a desire to power. This generates the impression that Nietzsche perceives the world or the cosmos as a single force that tempts us to give it greater power. According to Nietzsche, the universe, including humanity and nature, is a manifestation of force, an entity that is always in pursuit of "power," a "desire to live," and a "cause to exist.". With these arguments, the author made the argument that Jeon Heejin, one of the angels, created the LOONAVERSE in order to challenge humanity and the other angels to search for this "power" and "force" in order to make humanity and the other angels reflect on their creation and realize how their power can shape and alter the universe as a whole. (By this point, if you’re still reading this, I warned y’all that this is a joke, don’t take this seriously, please).
DISCUSSION
*(A.N.: Wow, y’all still reading this? Why?) *
*(A.N. No.2: In this part, I combined fiction and reality, AS A JOKE.) *
In this part of dissertation, the author refers to Roseade’s beautiful dissection of the LOONAVERSE (I recommend y’all read the theories, it’s awesome if y’all are into LOONAVERSE). In the theory crafted by Roseade, Heejin’s creation of LOONAVERSE is to “see more colours in the universe”, as stated in her play, ViViD. (Roseade, 2019). As a goddess, Heejin sees the world as “bland” and “colourless” that needs more brightness, as her colour represents a Bright Pink, a colour that, in research by YunJung Hong, described as “a reflecting modern society’s demands of masculinity to change into a more sophisticated and soft image” (Hong, 2020). The creation of LOONAVERSE started with the creation of said colours and implement to her angels, a shade of Yellow for Hyunjin, Green for Haseul, Orange for Yeojin, Light Pink for Vivi, Red for Kim Lip, Blue for Jinsoul (although Black also counts as her “sub-colour”), Purple for Choerry (this is also a case of double colour, as Choerry is also portrayed as White), Burgundy for Yves, Peach for Chuu, Eden Green for Go Won, and Gray (it’s debatable between Black and Gray, also White) for Olivia Hye. These colours represent the dynamics and brightness of the universe, which Heejin always visioned for her said “LOONAVERSE”.
With the implementation of colours complete, Heejin decided to throw them into the newly constructed LOONAVERSE, an Alternate Universe with parallels to our world, but with a striking contrast: no humans have been seen in any area of the globe, with the exception of the angels brought to the world. Heejin's act of casting her angels can be interpreted as Nietzsche's view of the universe, which is adding "will" and "force" to the world, thereby completing it. By sending the angels, Heejin is indicating that these angels are needed for their will to be created, and their power to complete and alter the world, as Nietzsche dictates that these are the requirements that individuals and nature require. Heejin failed to see that the requisite power is literal, since certain angels are stated to acquire the capacity to alter time and space. Three angels have the power: Kim Lip, Jinsoul, and Choerry. These three angels established what would eventually be known as the Odd Eye Circle, a term derived from the unique trait that these angels possess: a single-coloured eye that reflects the colours that Heejin bestows upon them. These angelic talents give them the motivation and capacity to alter the LOONAVERSE as a whole, as well as the ability to communicate with other angels. The will to change the world also reflects Nietzsche's interpretation of "God is dead, and we have killed him!" in his critically-acclaimed book, Thus Spoke Zarathustra, which is a book describing how we, as individuals, reject the concept of God, as a metaphor that human (and angels, in this case) can have free will, can live freely, without having its purposes gifted by God, implying that we should create our own purposes to live and dictate our own way of life (Nietzsche, 1883). Nietzsche believed that humans (as well as angels) should revolt against God, just as the angels did later in their lives. With the "death" of God (or goddess in this instance), the angels are no longer obligated to carry the duty that Heejin bestowed upon them. As a consequence, Heejin has no authority over any living creature in her reality, and with this philosophy applied, Heejin herself has no power; hence, she has joined the world she herself created. And connecting with Nietzche's argument of the creation of the universe, with the three angels gaining their own will and power, which is manipulating time and space, the three angels can connect with the rest of them, uniting as an entity that defies God(dess) and creating their world as they see fit.
CONCLUSION
*(A.N. No.3: wow you’ve made it to this part, congratulations!) *
*(A.N. No.4: No seriously, thank you for reading this joke of a dissertation). *
The development of LOONAVERSE by Heejin parallels the notion of the Universe by Friedrich Nietzsche, which claims that "Will" and "Force" are used to create the universe or world. Both are metaphors for a cause or the needs that entities must fulfil in order to complete the world. Heejin creates the LOONAVERSE so that the angels may earn their own "Will" and "Force" in order to finish their share of the world-building processes, and so that the angels can link more intimately than ever before. Heejin failed to see that the "will" and "force" that she bestows onto the angels are literal, as some of the angels got the ability to alter time and space, allowing them to combine with other angels and rebel against the Goddess. According to Nietzsche, the universe is God(dess)-less, which means that the notion of God is nothing but a thinking, a misinterpretation manufactured by people to feel that there is a purpose for an entity to exist on earth. The world that denies the existence of God(dess) rendered Heejin powerless and threw her into the world she created so she could see what entities are like if they do not believe in the notion of God(dess). With the powers that are gained by the Odd Eye Circle angels, by the means of time and space manipulation, the author argues that there is a possibility that the angels can reconnect with each other, and bring forth the required “Will” and “Force” necessary to rebel against the Goddess.

_PART 1_+700 words
'KBS World : Hot couple Wooseok and Jinsoul seen exiting filming site with weighty expressions, could that be that there's trouble brewing..??
(...)
And if suspicion of inconvenience arising in paradise hadn't already gotten their fans thinking, what you will read next might be enough to convince you :
Not 1 but 2 cars were seen leaving the restricted parking lot a little before noon, husband and wife both taking opposite directions, a reporter says.
Is their marriage running as smoothly as they assure ?'
/***/
Jinsoul's heart jumps in her chest as the magazine slams against the desk in front of her like a clap of thunder, her stare shifts from the humiliating cover to her fuming manager "HAVE YOU GONE MAD ???
If she is intimidated, or shameful, she doesn't let anything show, "It's nothing Jackson, they are literally looking for anything."
She keeps her statuesque posture, even when a rushed knock draws his glare away and towards the door.
Dickhead finally deigns to show up. Jinsol wishes she could let the cutting remark slide off her tongue. Instead, she keeps her eyes onto the desk, unwavering, as her husband takes a seat in the chair next to hers.
"I don't think we should get worked up for this." Wooseok starts in a composed tone, not only is he handsome and a talented actor, he is also tactful. How bad Jinsol cannot stand the sight of him. She cannot stand his conduct, his crafted indulgence, his lack of humanity. This man is less of a human being than a mannequin and she cannot muster enough strength to think of one reason that could justify her agreeing to this arrangement.
If she knew this fabricated union would become such an emblem for so many people, if she knew that as many compromises would be at stake, she would have thought twice before getting married with a man she would have never imagined living a romance with, not in a million years.
She is not even sure of her self-worth as an actress before this whole thing was launched, but their manager is here to remind her.
"See..." He plops down into his office chair, the leather squeaking in shock, and rummages through some drawer. A pile of paper lands atop the magazine and the girl's blond locks sway behind her back with the gust of air.
"Just looking at those." He sits back into his chair and intertwines his fingers over his knee. Jinsol is about to reach for the pile but stays rooted in her seat when Wooseok goes for it first.
The way she learned how to, unseen, Jinsol skims over dozens of articles, Daum posts, about Wooseok and Jinsoul, about Jinsoul and Wooseok, nothing about Jinsoul, her life as an independent actress, about the dozens of movies she starred in way before changing company.
It sends a pang of regret into her heart, and Jackson's words sure don't help, "You got it, you guys are nothing without each other, what makes your popularity is how strong and flawless your couple is."
She wants to throw up. She wants to jump off the window and drown.
"Your fans are rooting for you two together." He emphasizes. Jinsol fights to keep her composure, the more he speaks, the more she wants to bash his head in.
Wooseok shifts uncomfortably in his seat, "They're not rooting for Wooseok, or Jinsoul, they're rooting for Wooseok and Jinsoul."
If it wasn't obvious already. Jinsol can only blow off some steam inside her mind.
He sends his chair into the large window behind him as he springs to his feet and points a finger towards the article that could cost Jinsol her career, "This. It's bad. And I know what I'm talking about."
He focuses on his phone for a few seconds, thumb scrolling down his screen in a rush, "Here, you guys are already in the top search. The article came out yesterday." He shows the phone to the couple as if they could read from this far away.
"You both will get back in your right minds right away and show the world you're in love." He decides, and as if he could see Jinsol's displeased face, he adds, "And I don't give a fuck if it's not the case, you can pretend, right?"
