In the past we've had fish out of water stories but this could be their attempt to truly explore the deeply lonely implications of being stuck alone somewhere and heavily relying on the kindness of somebody else.

Mikuru already has an entire life before Anna timeslips, while right now all Anna have is Jett Senpai and Mikuru. I don't think Anna is being jealous here, maybe partially, but more importantly She's realizing how much of a lonely position she is in. She is literally standing outside the gate- right outside the edge of the boundary of Mikuru's world.

Anna maybe our main character, but she is an intruder in Mikuru's world. She's a mystery that needs to be solved, and when that happens she will nolonger be part of Mikuru's life.

So Sueños de Libertad is a perfect show to theorize over because, with the amount of episodes, everything can change pretty quickly. When one episode you think it's going a certain way, then the next, they surprise you and suddenly it's seemingly going the complete other way.

This is why I leave most of my theorizing to a groupchat and a few friends, because it changes to fast that a throwaway theory can become real or debunked in one scene. But I felt like sharing this one, because of a few factors. (It's not very eloquent)

We know Pelayo is still around for filming current day (so T3) at least in some capacity.

We know that their smaller villains (like Pelayo, Maria, some others) are overall written in a way where, in some people's eyes, they could still be redeemed. Compared to someone like Jesús, Gabriel, which are the main villains and have done such massive wrongs to so many different people, it's impossible. (Or it should be impossible).

What if this plot with Pelayo needing to be sent away actually happens, (which I doubt, but even the threat of it might be enough) and he realizes just how horrible it is to leave everyone you care for behind (i know, what a stretch because he usually only looks out for himself), and thus this is the way he realises he fucked up with Fina. Aka: redeem Pelayo plot activated.

He recognizes it, and in some way he either confesses to Marta what he did with Fina - I doubt it - or he reaches out to Fina first and tries to make it up that way - but it would be wonderful for him to realise she's out of his reach by now, but not for us - and that is how he's somehow turned into basically what Maria is now: not the main villain in the story anymore, lying in wait possibly, redeemed in some character's (and probably viewer's) eyes but not others.

Maybe he does some 'grand gesture' and gets rid of the remaining elements he has hanging over them, in a show of good faith.

Whatever it is, even if he's not actually sent away, I feel like for Pelayo's characters to still be around in a year or longer, he'd need to gain some insight and self-reflection.

Let's also not forget that an irrelevant character in a telenovela is usually a dead one. And because Pelayo is not the main Big Bad, and we know he's still around, it's perfectly possible he'll just be in the background for a while. But without this character development, stretching the 'Fina is away' plot a lot longer is going to be very difficult to believe as a viewer.

The current plot is moving that story along too, for sure. And they could do it entirely differently and let Pelayo be an asshole and not "redeemed". But I keep thinking then: how is he going to stay in a marriage with Marta, how is he going to still be around in a few months time, if they don't use this plot to change his insights?

silver design

I like drawing them they’re my favorite character. This is just a little doodle so they’re not exactly how I draw him. I’d think in 06 theyd wear the shorts to be a bit more practical and stuff. But idk maybe theyd wear a skirt anyway. I like to give them glowy eyelashes if like to think they just subconsciously have a bit of glowy eyelashes just cuz they thinks it looks nice :).

well, hello?

yeah, it is i, the writer of frostford's mystery and miscalculated. well, back from the grave of inactivity. a decision to do a complete rewrite (everything other than main premise) both of my main IFs is in action, very slow action.

it was a decision I was so hesitant to make, in a way i wanted to just not touch them again, make a new blog and start over but those IFs meant a lot to me, even back at the time, and still to this day, and i hate having abandoned them so much.

the reason for abandoning them for quite sometime, other than having a job and a demanding major that i frankly don't even enjoy studying, is that i started writing those IFs and being in the interactive fiction community at the age of 16, and now, i'm on the way to turning 20. time truly does fly fast lmao, so somewhere in the writing i started noticing how my posts/writing of a yeah before (for example when i was 17 looking back at my demo i wrote at 16) i felt like there's a huge gap between how i think, speak and write than i did a year back (which makes sense), but now that i'm at an age where things are moving slower than the 16 to 19 growing up gap, i felt the strong urge to go back to writing, and a complete rewrite is in order, it's a 99% fresh start while maintaining the original stories i was (and am on my way) very passionate about.

another element is the drastic change in my beliefs in three years, when i started writing my IFs at 16, i was still religious (which there's absolutely nothing wrong with but i knew for a fact i was lying to myself out of fear), mostly in the closet and all in all hesitant to actually include elements that the people around me view as immoral or taboo, that was a scary thought to 16 year old me. i became an atheist and came to terms of being bi, trans and asexual and how i want those things to actually impact my writing and overall presenting.

so yeah, i'm reintroducing myself as sul, 19, he/him.

things are coming and i'm very ecstatic for them, right now rewrites, redesigns are being made and i'm deleting old blog posts that no longer encompass my IFs and mainly posts that make me cringe.

This year has been really hard on my mental health and has been full of tragedy after tragedy. Art-wise I've felt pretty stagnant, but here's to hoping that things look up from here. Cheers 🍻 now look at my old dog, Bailey 👵

My biggest fear: writing the development of a relationship

Why can't they just be in love already? You mean I have to write them falling in love? What kind of witchcraft is that?

I’m making a speculative zoology series similar to The Teeming Universe. I lost interest in the speculative evaluation thing I was working on. I thought a thing like this would be more flexible for me, and I can just draw the planets, ecosystems, and creatures and describe them below. Now let’s get to what the Ramlings are.

The Ramlings are a humanoid and ram-like alien species that are their planet’s equivalent to humanity. They live on the planet of Mithras, which has similarities to our own Earth. Their societies are mainly lead by the females of this species, while the mostly gentle males stay and raise the Rammies (or child Ramlings). They come in many different shades of red, brown, gray, blond, black, and white.

They have mouths on their abdomen, and scientists are unsure way. Heck, the Ramlings question why is humans don’t have mouths on our torso. Inside these mouths is an organic and sharp spear that is attract to the mouth like a tongue. Inside the spear is a piece of sharp metal. The semi-thick flesh of the spear prevents the metal from cutting out of it. This spear is used to climb difficult terrain, hunt for food, protect themselves and each other, and to threaten.

All of the Ramlings, regardless of age, have these inside of thier inferior mouths. Yes, even the new borns. There was one time where a researcher accidentally frightened one of the baby Rammies, and the spear jumped out and stabbed his eye.

As said before, the females are the dominant ones in this species. Female Ramlings are more feisty than their male counterparts, and they normally approach stressful situations with an intelligent but passively or actively aggressive approach. They are naturally reserved, and they could mate with one male or none during their lifetime. They can be pregnant for eight to nine months before giving birth. She helps the father take care of the newborn Rammy until the child doesn’t need her breast milk anymore, and she goes out to the outside world once more, only visiting from (at most) time to time.

The male Ramlings are more gentle than their female counterparts, but that doesn’t not mean they wouldn’t fight for their children. When they know that their child is endanger, they become more beast-like and demolish whatever is endangering their kids. Other than that, they work similarly to a traditional housewife, except that they are their families’ child support. During the early stages of puberty, they act like fun-loving and horny boys, sometimes having same-sex relations with each other. To female Rammies their age, they are annoying abd normally they push them away. Late during their puberty, their hormones settle down, and they become gentle and caring giants; though, they can possibly still engage in relations with the same sex.
