hi I'm bee and I write too much

yeah i didn't know intro posts were a thing really till now i'm just an ancient tumblr user who doesn't keep up with the New Trends

hi i'm bee (or bones) and this is my mcyt sideblog. my main blog (that I almost never use) is @bonesandcacti so I follow from there. age and pronouns are in my blog description so here's some other things!

where do I know you from? well, if you read mcyt fic on ao3, especially sbi stuff, you most likely know me from my superhero-verse au tommyinnit's clinic for supervillains but I write other stuff too!

if you have any questions about my boundaries regarding my fics or anything, make sure to check out my carrd! I have a list of things you can and can't do with my works, and also a qna for commonly asked questions I get, so please read this before sending me an ask!

- my analysis posts will all be tagged #dsmp analysis if you wanna look at those

- all of my personal non mcyt related posts will most likely be tagged #ramblings so if you don't wanna see that you can block it

- all writing advice asks I answer will be tagged under #bones writes, all asks related to specific fics of mine will be tagged under the title of the fic (except my fic the world forgetting by the world forgot is just tagged with #world forgetting) and you can find my mcyt ao3 here

- asks related to specific chapters of my long form fics will be tagged with the shorthand title of the fic followed by 'ch [number]'. so an example would be #glass ch 25 for an ask specifically discussing ch 25 of through a glass divine

- feel free to send me asks! it can be about character analysis stuff or memes and all that fun jazz

- if you're a fan of my fic the stars and their children and you're interested in learning how to pronounce a lot of the names for places and such I have in there, here's the link to a pronunciation guide I made!

- spam likes, reblogs, and screaming in the tags is welcome and appreciated

-disclaimer, I still write and post about the character c!wilbur sometimes. however, I do not support cc!wilbur in any way shape or form

I come here because for my Storyboarding class final project, we were assigned to do a storyboard of 60 panels. I thought it would be a great opportunity to finally lock in and do a good chunk of the storyboarding for a clinic animation I have been planning for foreveeeer and that I have attempted to make on two other occasions but gave up because I kept hitting walls. Well, now this was motivation to sit and figure out how to make things work and flow right.

Project is still very much not done and animatic still yet to be finished but considering I got a fourth of the storyboarding for the whole thing done with one all-nighter it’s looking more doable than it ever has :)

But anyways, I came to share this because today we were due to present our 60-panel final and out of a class of 15-20 people— 3 separate people came to ask me if it was clinic LMAO Mind you, the whole thing isn’t even centered on the actual story of clinic, it focuses on each villain of the Syndicate but it looks as though Phil’s goofy bucket hat was all they needed to know. Was really neat that even in a small class, there were multiple people who recognized and know clinic.

Xima hi!!! I've been doing pretty well, mostly recovering after finals and I just started my summer job today which is exciting :)

I'm honored you're still passionate enough about clinic to do your storyboarding project with it, that sounds like it's going to be absolutely incredible. I would love to see the storyboarding whenever you feel like it's ready :) (but no pressure ofc) I'm so proud 60 panels is insane!!

also wtf do you mean out of your 15-20 person class 3 people recognized it. what do you MEAN. that's insane. did not realize clinic is something that still gets recognized in the wild

saw this yesterday and immediately thought of no time confounds me <3

There probably isn’t a right answer to a lot of things, but it felt nice to be reminded that separating something or someone that brings you comfort from any negative impacts it may have is not easy. I think many spaces treat matters that have a lot of nuance to sort through as black and white when they really aren’t.

I hope you’re doing well. I have a habit of not commenting on works or art because I prefer to be a passive observer a lot of the time to avoid getting hurt. But I do want you to know that I appreciate every bit of art people like you create and share. And this fic meant enough to me that I went and read it a second time. This might actually be the third time but I can’t remember. I had a time when I really dug into any fic that resembled found family that I could probably reflect on why I did that but this isn’t the place to psychoanalyze myself. The point is this meant a lot to me and I’m not sure how to properly convey that but tumblr has recently driven home to me that I should try anyway.

yknow it's funny, one of the reasons I wanted to focus on the nuance of morality in clinic was in part because of how the fandom treated everything in such a black and white way at the time, and it really annoyed me. of course the circumstances depicted in clinic are very hyperbolic compared to most situations we encounter in our daily lives that require nuance and an understanding of the shades of grey, but the general idea can still be seen.

just felt this was really applicable lmao. also i am a bit curious ive never considered the possibility

love your work btw! i hope you've been having a wonderful day :]

this is so funny because when you first sent me this ask I'd actually already seen this post on the subreddit because I'm on r/lawschool all the time. ironically I would say being a writer (not just for fanfic but a creative writer in general) actually made my legal writing worse. I thought I'd do great at legal writing because I love writing so much, but legal writing is so incredibly different that I was at a disadvantage by already being inclined to write in such a specific way. I hate legal writing so much man I'm so scared to get my appellate brief grade back LOL

i know you probably wont see this until after your finals but good luck! were in this together! (although youre a bit ahead)

EILEENNNNN so sorry i'm so late answering this but wow tasting elderberry honey at a market in budapest sounds like an incredible experience I'm so jealous. and yes that's incredibly honey and tangerines coded. I should go relisten to the rose tinted memories playlist sometime tbh

You're a really good writer :D ☆☆
