Hiatus

( Well, it’s been a few weeks since I said I was going on break from my RP blogs, both for school and for mental health reasons.

I graduate tomorrow, so I’m finally done with college.  I’ve also been feeling a lot better mentally ever since I took my break, which has been nice.  However, this break has made me think over some things, so I’ve made a decision.  I think I’m going to be leaving the RPC for the time being.  I don’t want to say that it’s permanent, because I still like roleplaying and am poor with committing to things, but I will continue to stay away from the RPC for now.

I realized how much I dislike being in the RPC.  It makes me unhappy, and although I’ve made good friends through the RPC, for now, I believe, my time is up here.  I think it’s been up for a long time, but as one of the longest remaining members of the Mother RPC at nearly 3 years now, I had a hard time committing to leaving.  But finally taking a break from the community made me realize I’d be happier this way.

I don’t regret joining the RPC, because I have had a lot of good times here.  I met my best friend and absolute favorite person ever, Zero / antcmbra here because of the Mother RPC as well.  That alone has incredibly great value to me.  But generally, everyone here has been good.  Regardless, it does feel like time to step away.

I am moving the threads I want to keep to Discord, and if you’re interested in this, please let me know.  I didn’t really have many threads going, but if there’s stuff you liked, stuff you want to keep, I’m happy to.  I’ve been experimenting with Discord threads over the past few weeks and I’ve really warmed up to it.  Like I said, I like roleplaying, and I haven’t lost muse for my characters, especially the twins, but it was clear I had to make a change.

Please IM me if you’re interested in moving threads, or if you want my Discord if you’d like to keep in touch.

Otherwise, I might be back eventually?  I never stay gone permanently from roleplaying on Tumblr, but for now, that’s my choice.  I apologize, and I thank everyone who reads this for understanding.  See ya. )

[twinsmily]

( oh yeah, i forgot to say, but i’m going to be taking a break from the rpc for a while.  i’m about to finish up my semester (3 more weeks and then i graduate so it’s a bit of a crunch time as you may imagine-) and i just think i’d benefit from keeping off my blogs for a while for mental health reasons as well.  might be back after i graduate, maybe sooner, maybe later, i don’t know, but i’ll be gone, basically.  thanks for people’s patience during this time.

if anyone wants to add me on discord, they are free to do so.  Psy#8548.  i’m not super chatty but hey, i’m always around. )

( i have to say, i think my favorite bit from the mother hobonichi pics is just Flint’s lil smile in the bbq photo

he’s so happy.... i’m happy for him, i love seeing him smile )

the pixel art pieces the hobonichi mother project account posted on twitter today are sooo cute, i love them!  happy birthday mother 3!

[antcmbra-deactivated20211210]

@twinsmily

      Everything is silent. The most sound is out of Kumatora tapping her foot on the ground, or the bunnies cautiously leaving their place from under the bed to try to explore more of the house again. Ajax has changed his sitting position to standing– glancing out the window every so often. Flint, however, honestly hasn’t moved or looked anywhere else. He’s only sat in on spot at the side of the bed with his gaze locked onto nothing in particular on the floor.

      Since waking up, Claus has spent his time all but draining the canteen entirely of any water left. Some water feels good, but it still doesn’t feel like enough for the headache and that constant exhaustion that’s weighing him down at this rate. It doesn’t really occur to him anymore that he hasn’t eaten for a while at this point, particularly due to the fact his attention has been put elsewhere.

      The more important matter at hand is that the cataclysm seems to have ended a while after they woke up. It’s still hard to tell if it’s night or if it’s still just dark outside… Or it could be both. Regardless, he’s put on his shoes and begun to swing his legs back and forth while on the edge of the bed. His eyes are locked on the windows out of sheer curiosity– and a desperate desire to be anywhere else other than this stupid tiny shell house.

      “…I don’t hear nothin’,” Claus announces, glancing to Lucas briefly, “Is it over? Can we go look?”

[twinsmily]

Once Lucas awoke, things seemed calmer than before.  While Snowcap had been pretty stable the entire time, the rabbits seem more comfortable now than they were.  That’s a pretty good indication that things are calming down when the animals are doing better.  It’s impossible to tell the time of day at this point, and it leaves him a little confused on how long he slept or if it’s the next day or not, but they must be close to the end of the cataclysm at any rate.

He’s not sure what to do just yet, though.  Lucas still wants to get out to check on Compass, but he’d like to make sure that things are settled here first.  Claus still needs to eat, doesn’t he?  At least he’s staying hydrated considering he winds up drinking the rest of the water from the canteen.  Lucas is stuck in his thoughts up until Claus speaks up to ask if they can go out and look.  Lucas doesn’t blame him for feeling antsy.  He’s feeling it too.

“Hmm... we could,” Lucas replies.  “Maybe we should get a snack first, though.”  They have to start off with something small considering how anxious eating has made Claus recently; it’s also to avoid any repeats of Claus eating too quick and making himself sick.  But he has to eat, and maybe going out will give him the incentive to give it a try...

[twinsmily]

antcmbra​:

      Once addressed, Flint pauses and turns his head to look over both Claus and Lucas together. The man remains in deep silent thought for a long moment, honestly reconsidering his decisions before he finally stands so that he can properly lie down on the empty space in bed. It’s a little bit awkward to try to keep his space with them, so instead Flint embraces it by shifting a bit closer and carefully placing his arm over them both. It’s almost protective in a way.

      Meanwhile Claus is almost entirely wrapped around Lucas. He quietly lies with shut eyes and is quick to start dozing off before long. The only one left awake is Flint, mostly due to the fact he finds himself far too lost in his own thoughts to fall asleep all the way. After flinching back awake in a particularly startled manner, Flint lets out a sigh and turns on his side to face the opposite direction from Claus and Lucas instead.

After a moment of hesitation, Lucas is happy to see Flint lay down by them.  It’s a bit squished with all three of them, but it’s cozy more than anything else, with Flint’s arm over both him and Claus and with Claus clinging to Lucas.  He manages to stay awake for a little while longer, enough to notice his brother’s breathing change when he falls asleep first.  He really needed the rest... hopefully he’ll feel a little better when he wakes up.

As for Lucas, he can feel himself dozing, but he can’t entirely forget all of his anxieties, and that makes it tougher when his brain won’t shut off.  Eventually, the Dragon simply puts him to sleep instead in hopes that he could sleep through a decent chunk of the cataclysm.  There was no point in going out before it was safe... if Compass was with Toffee, then he should be safe for now, right?

❤ answer some questions and I’ll give you a character arc

hero arc

well done - you did things right. this may seem like a boring answer, but i promise it isn't. you believe in goodness and you believe in doing good, and through everything, you work to keep that goodness. you have seen so much blood, and your instinct is always to stitch. you grew and fought and won, and i'm glad you did, because someone had to. i'm glad you kept believing in the world you were trying to save. you are far braver than most could ever be.

corruption arc

so. you got worse. and i'm not entirely sure i can blame you for it. maybe it was in you all along, hidden and waiting, or maybe someone planted it in you and watched it grow. either way, it's there now and you hold it in your fist like a second heart - this blood, this hunger, this thrill of having teeth and using them. perhaps you are right to. you are a mirror for the hardness of the world, and a mirror that we could all stand to look in more often. it's hard to watch the bleeding bring about more blood, but it is undeniable that you are very good at wounding.

      Claus is already starting to doze off alongside Lucas during the time it takes before Lucas decides to speak up about it. He glances up towards Lucas, then away for a moment to think. Lying down sounds good right now… There’s barely any energy left in him even argue.

      “I wanna lie down.” Claus murmurs.

      It takes a moment, but Flint eventually slips away from them both so that they can have the space to lie down and get comfortable. Though, he’s considering lying down as well… And so Flint turns his head in search of a spot he could probably find on the floor instead.

      Claus pays it no mind, and lazily kicks off his shoes before he’s crawling his way up to rest on the pillow and flop down on the spot. It’s only a little bit later that he whines and reaches out for Lucas to join him.

Claus only affirms that he definitely still wants to lie down, and Lucas doesn’t blame him.  While he’s not sure he’ll be able to sleep much himself as much as he’d like to, trying to get some rest while they wait out the cataclysm feels like the best use of his time currently.  Lucas has to keep reminding himself not to get into his own head too much.  If he isn’t careful, he could easily fall back into panicking.  Hopefully he can get some sleep, though...

Lucas removes his boots to follow Claus’s lead.  At Claus’s soft whine, Lucas chuckles softly and climbs over to him and lays down.  He glances over to Flint, still sitting.  If he had to guess, Dad is pretty tired, too; all of them could probably use some sleep right now.  There’s likely enough room on the bed for all three of them if they try.  There’s nowhere else for Flint to sleep right now anyways.

Lifting his head to get a better look at Flint, he asks, “Are you gonna lay down too, Dad?  I think we got room fer you.”

antcmbra​:

      Claus seems to relax a little more over time while he sips more of the water. It doesn’t make him immediately feel better, but his mouth isn’t so dry now at least… This is good. There’s unfortunately only so much more hurt he can take before he collapses again otherwise.

      Flint honestly seems as though he’s beginning to zone out of it by the time Lucas has decided to gesture towards him. It takes a moment, but he eventually glances over to his hand, then searches his expression for a silent explanation. It doesn’t take too long to put two and two together when he actually processes the scene that’s playing out in front of him. And so Flint shifts his body and leans close enough to pull both boys into a firm hug of his own. A slow sigh escapes him.

      At first, Claus lets out a quiet groan as though to protest the extra weight. It doesn’t take too long for him to adjust to it and slowly begin to relax into the hug, however. Drawing in a long deep breath, Claus proceeds to release an equally long sigh before his eyes flutter closed. The only fidgeting left out of him is his rush to put the cap back on the canteen to make sure no water spills out before he’s clinging tightly to Lucas in utter silence.

Lucas is relieved to see Claus drink, at least.  It’s a good start.  Hydration is as important as eating is, if not more, currently speaking.  After the brief pause of watching Flint connect the dots of what Lucas wanted, he’s happy to be held by Flint.  It’s comforting to him, soothing enough that his head manages to clear a little more as he leans against the man with a gentle sigh, followed by a yawn.

Didn’t Claus say he wanted to lie down...?  That might not be so bad right about now.  And when they wake up, he can try to get Claus to eat a little bit.  Small steps, that’s what’s important here.  Last time they tried to get him to eat, Claus only wound up making himself sicker.  Lucas doesn’t want any repeats of that.

For a moment, he almost feels himself dozing off in this hug before he tries to keep himself awake.  “Did you still wanna lay down fer a bit?” Lucas asks softly, voice a touch exhausted.  “Or are you good here?” Honestly, he’s definitely up for laying down for a bit, especially because he’s sure Claus must be exhausted-- Flint too, if he had to guess.  Everyone could probably do for some good sleep right about now.
