almost new year, definitely new url, new pinned post. hi my name is atticus (he/him or any neopronouns) and i'm a writer (& occasionally hobbyist artist or ttrpg designer). sometimes i write erotica, and more frequently i reblog nsfw jokes/art, so here's your heads-up for that!
you can find me on itch.io, archiveofourown, neocities, and bsky, all under the url or user 'paopuleaf'. if you enjoy petsites or like pixelated cats consider shooting me a friend request over on pixel cat's end! (if this is your first time hearing of it and you register, shoot me an ask and i'll send you some goodies.)
also, you should listen to interstitial, an actual play podcast now hosted on the feed of riley hopkins & their amazing friends!! you can find seasons four & five there - infinity, which i highly recommend, and investigations, which i'm sure i'd also highly recommend if i'd listened to it yet (oops). seasons one through three can be found on this feed & include my personal favorite of the three, proximity, for fans of feeling a shrimp emotion about the winner takes it all by abba. go listen to interstitial!! nyeow!!
if you're interested in what i'm working on going into 2026, take a look beneath the cut:
as always i am nearly-constantly writing about sauce smp, oft shortened to sauces, a minecraft smp turned into a vibrant original universe with some video game flavoring. most of my works for it aren't public, but if you see me talking about declan, eli, or shepherd, they're from this project, and some of my favorite guys i've ever made up.
spillways is a sprawling canon divergence au of cookie run: kingdom that i originally made up in late 2021 & ended up rebooting in full earlier this year. i'm currently knee-deep in a rewrite of working hard at follow through, which you can still read on ao3 if you don't mind some clunkier writing (it remains very high in my heart).
life's best mine canaries is a hack of marn s.' time to drop about clones trying to escape the factory they were created in. this one is nearly done mechanically and could drop next month or next year depending on when i finally get around to writing the nice text (& tables). i'm also haunted by several half-finished fan playbooks for interstitial 2e including a gm playbook called the narrator, for folks who want to play those guys from the stanley parable or slay the princess, or any other number of freaks
WORLDBENDER (title pending) is a ttrpg in extremely early stages of development, in the spirit of erotic text-based rpgs, primarily to be played-by-post.
at some point in 2026 i'm hoping to overhaul my website and start publishing original fiction, book/media reviews, and little wiki pages for a lot of my characters there!!
a treat for anyone who read this far, a selection of my favorite videos: tribute to cubepy | october dream | shinji dumbest girl alive amv | trigun shout amv | HEREINMYGARAGE.mwv | greg house rasputin

becoming too OC pilled will ruin your fandom experience forever. i have invented The Character who is perfectly tailored to my own tastes and not beholden to any writers or showrunners. and i can even make more of them if i want. but watch out.
sometimes i have strong opinions but they're also so inane that halfway through writing a post i'll be like "yeah, this is Absolutely not worth the energy it's taking" and delete everything. but then the opinion is still in my head. and i still want to share it. so within five minutes i go "you know, i bet i can phrase it more succinctly this time" and anyway. you all see where this is going. sometimes i do this four times in a row before i give up on the specific inane opinion and instead write a vague post about the concept of opinions as if that'll satisfy the urge to post the entirety of my inner monologue online. may or may not be relevant to what you're reading right now. and now all our lives have been enriched. you're welcome
It's finally happening. SO BELOW Chapter One will begin updating by the weekend of July 4th. Pages will be posted both to this blog as well as to SO BELOW's own comicfury site! Hooray!
The optimistic schedule is weekly page releases. The realistic schedule is bi-weekly. I'm only slightly more aware of what the timeline will look like than you are, so you'll have to forgive me if it doesn't all line up immediately.
If you like women who look kind of weird and do cool stuff, dissections of the concept of found family, interpersonal solidarity, and forgiveness, or if you're just a fan of arcade bowling style black-light colors, you should give this little story a glance :--] There's plenty of supplementary art on my blog in the meantime while we await real pages.

god I'm such a slut for Chinese eggplant in garlic sauce *decides it’s inaccurate to refer to myself as a slut in light of my minimal sexual activity* if The Enemy discovered my ardor for Chinese eggplant in garlic sauce, they would gain a significant strategic advantage

Consider: it is the healthiest and most normal thing in the world to go to your close friends and loved ones with problems in your friendships and relationships. Not to gossip, not to talk shit, but I go "Hey, me and (x, not related to my current partners) are on the rocks right now, can I talk it out with you?" and then you get input, advice, you get to process your feelings through conversation, then you're probably more equipped to go back to the person and go "hey I've been thinking and processing, I feel xyz."
Two major thoughts here:
Don't let anyone convince you that this type of conversation should only exist in therapy. Your friends and loved ones are there for you. Its called a support system for a reason. Getting advice and comfort is entirely different from talking shit.
If someone gets upset with you for talking about your interpersonal problems with your friends, its worth examining that dynamic. Why are they so worried other people will find out how they're treating you? This isn't like 100% always a bad thing, but like. Consider if there's other parts of the relationship that feel controlled. Consider how listened to and respected you feel, how safe you feel, how independent and free to act you feel.
the principal aim of lying is to accomplish your goal in as few lies as possible, and with the least amount of effort necessary to keep those lies going. It follows naturally that the world’s greatest liar speaks only the truth.
