not the sheep

About Me:

You can call me Day! Or daytaker, or taker, or pretty much anything else. I'm an adult (over 25) from North America, and I use she/her pronouns. English is my first (and functionally only) language. I'm a major history nerd, especially when it comes to Ancient Greece and Rome, but also like... literally anywhere, any time. History is just so cool.

Fandoms:

Primary: Obey Me!, Genshin Impact (I will create and reblog content for this fandom!) Others: Arcana Twilight, Cult of the Lamb, Twisted Wonderland, Hazbin Hotel lately, plenty of others... (I will rarely create or reblog content for these fandoms, but I will like related posts!)

Requests:

Headcanons: FULL Drabbles: INACTIVE, but feel free to submit! Fanart: INACTIVE, but feel free to submit! Anything NSFW: Please inquire at my sideblog, @dayfinisher!

Ask/Request Guidelines

Important to remember with requests: there are no guarantees I'll actually get to them.

Commissions:

Fanfics and Fan Art: DM me! I've never done writing commissions before but knowing me I'll probably make 'em pretty cheap. You're free to ask about commissions at any time, even when requests are closed.

Let's All Be Shadows - Honestly, I made this blog purely because I was so excited about writing this thing, I wanted to share it more. So I'm gonna put a link to its AO3 page on my pinned post. Satan-centric, endgame Satan x MC (kinda?), set in the Nightbringer timeline. I think it's pretty good. Lots of stuff happening. Hijinks and invented lore and all that.

Trust me, I'm as surprised as anybody.

[context: radio broadcast] “This new strange illness, colloquially known as 'Dagonitis' after the first prominent victim of the condition, was first reported on social media on May 16th. Cthulhu the Unknowable, a close friend of the affected demon, took to Devilgram to post an image of Dagon in a catatonic state, which he captioned #SaveDagon. In the intervening time, thousands of concerned demons have taken to social media to express their concerns for Dagon and others displaying similar symptoms using the hashtag #SaveDagon in their posts. Official reports suggest this condition is now affecting almost 1% of the population, but our latest data suggests that number may have risen as high as 3% in recent days. That’s almost one in thirty, Marbas.” “Shocking stuff, Abriel. Officials have so far failed to comment on the situation outside of noting that it’s ‘unfortunate’. When asked about the apparent epidemic by journalists on his way from the street to his castle, Lord Diavolo, acting as spokesman for his father, said he had a team looking into the issue, and that there is no need to panic.”

Ah, a brilliant idea, Me. To go on long hiatuses as soon as the plot starts heating up just so this stuff feels as uncanny as possible because of the complete lack of momentum going into it.

Well forgive me for falling in love with strongest-jujutsu-sorcerer-of-modern-times Satoru Gojo and forgetting Obey Me! existed...again.

(No, I haven't actually been involved in the JJK fandom, I'm just silently pining all on my lonesome. The older I get, the scarier fandom becomes.)

Anyway, if anybody is still interested, I'm working on Chapter 21, where the actual cataclysm I've been promising in the story blurb since the release of the first chapter is fully introduced. Hooray.

Yeah. 😔

JK, I was on an unannounced hiatus because that's the only kind of hiatus I actually maintain, because if I'm saying "I'm on hiatus", then I have to be on the platform to do that, and if I'm on the platform, the hiatus is a joke. And I know the idea is to say you're on hiatus and then log off but my brain doesn't work properly so it's never quite that simple.

Not sure how active I'm going to be here now but I plan to at least work on my fic. My goal is to actually finish a creative project I started. I haven't finished any long-form writing project since I was in seventh grade and wrote my hundred page "novel". It's time for me to chase the high of completion that had my thirteen year old self dancing on the bed again.

“In alchemy, all sorts of substances with various properties might be used, both magical and chemical. Some of them can influence the alchemist’s mood or behavior. But that being said, if your main concern is Satan’s recent disposition and wellbeing, I imagine the explanation you’re seeking is a bit less…esoteric.”

Existing Sucks So Let's All Be Shadows!

Ship: Nothing to speak of, really. Chapter Word Count: 3.4k Hosted on AO3.

Wow, after over seven months of silence, I've finally released another chapter of my godforsaken nightmare creation that haunted me every day I was away, whispering in my ear, telling me of all the narrative foibles I would inevitably make as the story approaches its climax, but even though you're paralyzed by fear of failure, you can't just sit there and watch Jujutsu Kaisen because I'm going to make you feel guilty about it Satan-centric Obey Me!: Nightbringer fanfic!
