What is the "hidden color temperature" of your writing style?

(Chinese quiz - use Google translate if you have to)

my results:

寒墨透骨｜直覺的質問者

代表色溫： 3000K 孤燈深藍

—— 墨痕未乾，問題仍在 ——

心境解析：

你拒絕廉價的安慰。對你而言，文字是尋找真相的火把。你筆下的冷靜並非無情，而是一種高度的自律與誠實，能精準地剖開被包裝過的現實，露出生活最真實的骨架。

goal for end of 2025:

finish writing something so i can actually post it somewhere

even i'm tired of my half-finished projects, as much as i love writing them. doesn't even have to be a long thing, i just wanna finish something. and it's not like im short of ideas either—i have stuff floating in my head for both original and fanworks, just the lack of urgency to complete anything. in this case, i feel like i can be less chill and more on the ball.

being in a discord full of writers, including a few who do complete and finish works often (whether on itchi.o/tapas or elsewhere) has helped and made me realize that yes, it is realistic for ppl to write and finish stories within weeks or months even w/o writing fulltime LOLOL

there i said it now i'll pin this post so i don't forget

realizing today that maybe partially the reason HJYJ grips me is the same reason Mikiya/Shiki grips me

the "guy who's so so normal" vs. "superpowered inhuman guy" pairing

except so so normal isn't always normal either and shdfhsdfh

anyways i like it, when there's an obvious power dynamic that looks imbalanced at first but actually ends up being equal because *handwaves* reasons not related to how well you can kill or destroy or maim it's complicated ok
