concept art for evercold I’m gonna fucking lose it

[travelling-on-the-octopath]

So: I've been off from uni since pre-breakdown and am going back in the new year. When I left AI was still largely spurned by everyone but gang I'm not gonna lie. I'm scared by how many profs and TAs are leaning into it lol. I am NOT putting myself in debt with the government just for them to consult Hallucinogenic McGee on what my grade should be.

An addition: my younger friends use it CONSTANTLY for summarization, which they justify with the dry nature of their STEM texts. I feel like I'm constantly in a state of unreality because of how staunchly I refuse to engage with any form of generative AI while everyone else partakes, either for academics or recreation. And it is NOT going to be pretty if I have to rip a prof a new one 🧍🏻‍♀️

I chose the initial "S" because that is the first letter of the name I am currently deciding on being called.

My username, basement, was actually something that I randomly thought of one night when creating this account.

Did you know a giraffes tongue is blue or purple but on the wildlife choob packaging, their tongues are pinkish red? Also, yes I got this fact from Wildlife choobs.

You should drop the tickle siren stories that took you out 👀

This one here is by @ticklish-touch , though their current blog is @laughterlust!

Funnily enough their tickle monsters greatly comforted me as i was coming to terms with my tickle and fear kinks both, in my early 20s. Now here I am getting inspired by them yet again now that I have my own little self-indulgent blog. I'm eternally grateful to them for their ocs, and contributions to the space, I genuinely don't know if I'd be here sharing my works with you all without them ❤️

Even more recently where I've been struggling with my selfship posting for Fandoms no-one else is really into in a tickle kink sense(Life is Strange, Alien Stage, soon to be Creepypasta), they also deal with the same struggles. It was incredibly validating and made me feel a bit less alone.

Alright, sappiness aside; onto horny rambles! ❤️

Rags as always is a complete menace, but God did Spike and Drake(the Sirens), absolutely make a blushing mess out of me. 😳 I particularly adore the way Blue incorporated their merman attributes. From Drake talking in a foreign language, likely only he and Spike share to his asset being strength while Spike uses his song and disarming speed. The way Drake purrs and Spike chirps are also so endearing.

Their personalities are also very distinct, I love how articulate and observant Drake is, and Spike is energetic and seems to have a bit more of a feral energy that's really embarrassing in the best way possible.

Drake mentioning wanting to play these games with other Wanderers with Spike brought to mind all sorts of scenarios of course, particularly of me going to try to conquer my fear of the water. I'm overheard attempting to work myself up which leads to Spike appearing to tease me and rock the bridge, making me whimper and crouch low in fear of falling.

I eye him warily, having heard of their exploits.

"How do I know you won't just kill me?"

"Drake and I just got back from a fruitful hunting trip and are full, luckily for you~ Otherwise..."

"You'd already be in the water."

The new voice comes from below and I look under to see him but that's what he was hoping for as he grabs my wrist with a tentacle, extending my arm and I quickly succumb to giggles as my underarms are tickled. If I squirm, I move a little bit closer to falling off which leads to them sharing feral grins. Tickling ensues.

I'd never wanna make a full fic or anything without permission so I'll leave it there but just know the brain worms are real and I'm very excited to make my own siren type character! 🤭

If you haven't read their backrooms story and other works I can't recommend them enough! They're so fun, inventive and you can see the attention to detail in the lore clear as day if you're also a backrooms or horror enjoyer such as myself ❤️

Every chapter tackles a myriad of kinks and lers with tickling as a throughline.

Unfortunately this next one is anonymous but they're consistently releasing amazing tickle kink writing. Their incubus story singlehandedly got me, not helped by the fact I'm particularly weak to them. 😳

The siren story is the first link with the incubus one underneath.

Ok I have lots of thoughts that are in no way organised but I need to scream them out because summer skin really did a number on me. Among other things like the precise control of tension, pacing, yearning etc; the perfect capture of their stupid dudebro dynamic, the specificity to the time and place that could have only ever been written by a Canadian(??? Sorry I don’t actually know this I just assumed), all that stuff is like, wonderful and such a blessing but what really got me in this piece of writing was the heartbreaking way Will spoke about his relationship to god and faith. The idea of a feeling that is so big and joyous and true as this LOVE he feels for mack surely SURELY cannot be condemned, right? That surely if there was a god he would exist in the way we love each other, right? To love another person is to see the face of god and all that????? WOW. Truly truly sublime. I don’t think I’ve ever read anything that hit me like this. I can understand why you cried after writing it!! What a monumental piece of work!!! Ok LAST point- I thought it was very funny that Leno was lowkey the villain of the story lmao.

aghhhh i don’t even know where to start with this so bear with me!!! first and foremost thank you for sharing your thoughts :’) i will do my best to hit all your points here so i apologize for the flow (or lack thereof) that may follow

i think the pacing and tension was something i worked very hard on and put a lot of thought into—a thread pulled soooo tight until it snaps and recoils. so i’m so glad that’s being appreciated!!!!!

characterization is something i struggle with when i read fics so i wanted it to feel as real and true and authentic as possible (to my own interpretation, of course, but it’s something i’ve received lots of comments about and i’m so glad it’s working for other people too tehe)

re: your assumption, i am in fact canadian 😁😁

i really didn’t even intend for summer skin to be big on the catholic guilt lol… my previous two fics are very centralized on that and summer skin was intended to be more lighthearted and fun and ridiculous and yet somehow we ended up here LOL. rhe catholicism really just crept up on me in the process as it tends to do. fun summer skin fact for you—this was originally supposed to be entirely mack pov. but i am simply sooo enamored by mr william smith hockey and i couldn’t resist getting his freak brain in the mix. and then as soon as he was forced to reckon with his queerness in the narrative, even indirectly, the god of it all just… snuck in, just how it happens when i myself am in specific situations where i am forced to contend with my own queerness or potential moral failings. (obviously not saying that queerness is a moral failing—i love being queer. but growing out of how you were raised is like growing out of your own skin. god is melded to me, as he is to will.)

“surely if there was a god he would exist in the way we love each other” is soooo true and important and real and genuinely like the whole schtick i was going for once i committed to will’s religious upbringing being a central theme of the fic. to love another person IS to see the face of god and every act of love IS an act of god and sometimes the church becomes too small for us and we simply have no choice but to find god nearly everywhere else, because that’s what we were raised on, but also because it becomes a choice. i don’t know if i believe in god anymore, but if he is there—i have been finding flickers of him in my friends and sunsets and fresh fruit and the first snow of the season and constellations and the pages of a book and my sisters’ eyes and my mother’s smile and the scarlet juice staining my own fingers when i’m getting out all the pomegranate seeds for myself. but i digress. getting to explore these themes and having so much room (read: word count) to work with in this fic was very interesting and stimulating and also very cathartic for me. many tears were shed, by myself and g (whose patience and grace and invaluable contributions helped make this fic what it is—i love her so dearly and i am truly sorry for what i put her through but i will be doing it again).

anyway—god. i still have a lot of questions there i may never find answers to. at the end of the fic will is in the same boat—a weird in-between state of acceptance that is still contending with fear and awe and wonder. he loves mack—maybe the one thing in the world he does know for certain. and everything else will just… keep being there.

per your final point, i genuinely have sooo many thoughts swirling in this kaleidoscope of a brain about the bc line, most of which will never see the light of day simply due to the sheer volume of them. i liked the exploration of their dynamic i have been doing in summer skin (and pushing it down and praying) and it’s something i plan to hopefully pick at more in whatever i write in the future.

at last we have reached the end of my rambles! i hope this was worth reading to you and provided some stuff to chew on and not just like. a seemingly endless tirade of theological (?) nonsense. thank you for reading and commenting on ao3 and for sending me your thoughts here!!!!! very special to me i loveee to engage with the fic (and everyone who reads it!) this way :’)

[s-writing-s]

[owari-no-suffering]

truly i did not appreciate the fruitiness of futari wa (and max heart) when i was younger. because it's like. you and i couldn't be more different, but i want to know you anyway. loneliness was my best company before i met you. if i were a guy, you'd definitely be my type. this handmade charm you gave me may as well be jewels. i doodle you in my notebook. it's okay if you need to hold my hand too tightly sometimes. no i can't act, but these are the words of romeo to juliet and i'll say them to you like they're from my own soul. the thought of you in danger has me scared out of my mind, but the need to save you pushes me past all my limits. i know you'll come for me. please never scare me like that again--what would i do with myself if something happened to you? always we get stronger when we grow closer. no this isn't going to be easy. i can't protect you from pain but i'll go through it with you. you're my greatest strength and my one insurmountable weakness. i would rather you kill me than raise a hand to you. you're the most important person in the world to me. i love you i love you i love you.
