ˋ°•*⁀➷ intro!

J • she/her • early 20’s • lebanese • my ao3

Sometimes I write, sometimes I draw, but I’m forever in my naruto brainrot era.

ˋ°•*⁀➷ currently writing!

As Time Stands Still, a naruto SI/OC fic that takes place during the third shinobi war and follows a refugee who's in over her head where ninja are concerned.

You can expect cultural worldbuilding, fuinjutsu/chakra theory, general root shenanigans, and a slowburn x shisui subplot because I couldn't resist.

ˋ°•*⁀➷ tags!

my art • for fanart and oc art

atss • for anything fic related

j talks • for textposts and ramblings

ˋ°•*⁀➷ thanks for stopping by!

OC designs for my fic!

For context, these are uniforms that I imagined the girls working in the laundry department of the daimyo’s palace would wear. Their kimono have a flame motif along the hem as a nod to belonging to the Land of Fire.

(Ft. Rina, in honor of her being brought back into the story in chapter 28. She’s a civilian with implied Uzumaki heritage, who Hana meets while conducting a mission for Root.)

You can find the fic, As Time Stands Still,on ao3!

ok but now i must hear your shisui thinkpiece 🙏🙏

OMGGG I have A Lot to say about him. Mostly because I have too many points of contention with his canon backstory caused by retconning and timeline discrepancies. Like for example the age he was when he died and the events surrounding how he awakened his mangekyo.

One day I’ll organize all my notes into proper posts 🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️ one day!!

‎عيني

──

The word “ayni” in the Levantine dialect of Arabic directly translates to “my eye,” and is commonly used as a term of endearment in the same way that one would use “my love” or “my darling.” Culturally, the eye—and by extension, the gift of seeing—is rated so highly that to refer to someone as such implies a deep sense of affection, enough so as to equate the beloved person with the value of one’s own sight.

صيبة عين

──

Pronounced “say-bet ayn,” this phrase refers to the concept of the “evil eye” in the Levantine dialect of Arabic. Literally translating to the “strike of an eye” or being “hit by an eye,” it describes the superstition that a jealous or even admiring look from another individual can cause misfortune or physical ailments in the recipient.

if you ever find yourself writing fanfiction and thinking "this is too indulgent" that is the devil talking and he can go ahead and shut the fuck up

Remember to give your OC at least 1 feature that makes them impossible to make in most picrews

Pros of re-reading your own fic

a good time;

Has exactly the tropes you like and the characterization you want to read;

Gratification: yes you did finish a thing and yes you did do good;

just a very fun time all around.

Cons of re-reading your own fic:

Is that another TYpO
