(I did not attend in person but bought multiple things online. Now I have to decide which friends to bring to Ai-Kon tomorrow!!!)

(OTP kissing pic not pictured but very appreciated)

Not all of my public works were scraped (though I don’t know how some of the older ones evaded it!) and some of my locked works were scraped. I don’t want to lock all my works since that doesn’t completely work anyways, so I won’t be doing that at this moment. (I know which of my works weren’t scraped, though locking just them would feel too obvious)

Idk if I’ll be posting new works from now on. I have one work for a gift exchange that’ll be out when the exchange reveals (expected May) and two assignments due in May/June, and I’m working on my FTH work, but I’ve decided to not sign up for any more exchanges at the moment. (Both due to the scraping and just being busy)

I will continue my current weekly books- Unconventional Recipes (Gavv), THE Kamen Rider Microfics (Kamen Rider 1971 show), 5:55 (Faiz), Kirakilala Couplets (You and Idol Precure), and No. 1 Cinquains (Gozyuger) until they are done (Note: this means late 2026 for Kamen Rider 1971). They were all scraped (besides Gozyuger, who avoided it due to work id number) anyway. I don’t want them to be scraped *again* but I don’t want to restrict the works if I don’t have to.

I don’t *like* that so many works were scraped but I kinda expected that for the unlocked works. But I am disappointed that (some of) my locked works were included. I’m also considering locking my permanently anonymous works, though this won’t make a difference to the number of works on my profile. I was/am generally fine with those currently-unlocked works being public, because they’re not on my profile, but when I made those fics I didn’t expect they would ever be in an llm. And I guess they’re still not associated with me, but I don’t want AI to be trained on my intrusive thoughts and stuff y’know? So I’ll at least lock those.

(Can’t lock that orphaned work though. That’s fine with me, it’s just cringe.)

Basically I’m crossposting, so my works on AO3 will remain up there, any works I post in December might be posted to both at the same time but I don’t plan to post exclusively on SquidgeWorld. All my works are backdated, so the date it says they were posted reflects when it was posted on AO3 and not the fact that I archived 90 works in less than 24 hours.

I’m going to archive almost all my works on SquidgeWorld, *except* any works I’ve tagged as Abandoned - maybe I’ll archive them eventually, but they’re very low priority.

I’m going to prioritize/make sure to archive poetry, microfics, meta, and the entirety of my Collection Books series (ideally once the import feature is…better, for that series...)

If you wanna hear me ramble more about how I’m planning to archive my works on SquidgeWorld, it’s under the cut.

(Side note I have a SquidgeWorld! Same username as here and AO3.)

My phone, for some reason: *tries to autocorrect Sora to Dora and Haruto to Naruto*

Me: I can’t believe I’m really going to post this self-indulgent smut that specifically caters to me, this is so embarrassing

My brain: you know what would make it less embarrassing

Me: what?

My brain: posting another equally-self-indulgent smut fic at the same time

I’ve decided to post 3 chapters per day for almost a week, so I’m not posting it all at once because it’s relatively long, but it won’t take too long for the whole thing to be out. It’s currently Not Rated because I’m tired, but it’ll probably end up rated G. It’s definitely SFW.

Me: wow I can’t believe Mai from Abaranger and my older brother are the same age

But when I do, it’s that I’m nervous when I post something probably-NSFW on main and go "I hope I don’t lose user subscribers because of this (usually because of a pairing/kink/whatever)" and then I post it and hope for the best.

Anyways, every time I have done that and then checked my stats later, I have gained user subscribers. Maybe just by 1 or 2, but the number doesn’t decrease, and it definitely doesn’t cause everyone to suddenly unsubscribe over one fic.

So that’s pretty fun lol.
