Astarion: I've caught this stupid disease because of Tav Tav: For the last time, Astarion, feelings are not an illness
When your own WIP makes you cry... 😭
(This is not what it looks like, I haven't abandoned my Astarion fics. This is just a quick detour of vomiting out a multi-chapter fix-it to mend my broken heart after s6)
Guys. YOU GUYS. Do you think Nandor and Guillermo have ever gotten surprised by the rising sun and then Nandor had to turn into a bat and like... hide inside Guillermo's sweater? 🤭🥰
When I said I'd probably update at an unhealthy speed, did I mean to drop 5 chapters and 12k words in a week?
Actually, yes. Yes, I did.
5 / 8 chapters of "When you're gone" / my WWDITS fix-it where I let them watch the documentary and pine are online 🥰
I did it! I found the secret pet sheep 🤩
I have a word document where teenie-me collected all the remarks on her animexx fanfic. This document is almost 20 years old.
I wouldn't delete it if you put a gun on my head.
(I lost the story eventually, but you can be sure I still have the comments xD)
"I didn't comment on a fic I liked because I don't think the author would care or remember my comment anyway". fanfic writer here, I still remember comments I got on my fics from seven years ago. I still think about them and they still make me smile. your kind comments are what motivates us and what helps us keep writing.
I personally know writers who take screenshot and print out comments they got from their readers.
TL;DR comments matter to us writers more than you think. if you like a fanfic, never be shy to let the author know ♡
Well, what other choice do they have? There will be only one bed 💁♀️
Making myself sad while editing Chapter 6 of my WWDITS fix it, which is basically Nandor and Guillermo watching Season 5
I mean, imagine Nandor watching how Guillermo was turned. That he was buying his turning from anyone who would offer, just getting it over with in a supermarket backroom. To see how low Guillermo had stooped for it.
It's just so sad. I need to get to the fluff soon. XD
(Also quick reminder that this is not me abandoning my Astarion longfics. This is just a detour. I will be back.)
Astarion: “No one ever cared about me >:\”
Karlach, standing 10ft away: “ME I CARE I CARE SO MUCH”
I felt like an alien pretending to be human when I was engaged. Like "here you should want to do this and you should feel joy about this thing etc".
The biggest “your experiences are not universal” thing I feel is whenever anyone talks about the universality of girls planning their weddings since childhood because. Well. Not me. God bless

Thank you so much @amoremagnificentbastard for tagging newbie-me ♥️
It's been incredibly hard to choose, but I found my favourite(s).
It's from my latest chapter of "Spawn me the details" with Gale as leader of the group talking to you/spawn/Melody ♥️
"Do believe me, Melody, when I say: I guarantee that no harm will come to you. I'll personally see to that."
It's just so wholesome and I especially cherish it because two very precious people told me about the goosebumps they had at the scene ♥️
Very absolutely non-pressure-ly tagging @obsessedwhyyes (I personally hope it's going to be a Gale sentence, but honestly, everything you write is magical ✨️)
Happy to be here 💕
