welcome to the domain of tempest heaven! you can call us crescent or tempest. we use they/them pronouns, we're a lesbian, we have autism and DID, and we're 23 years old. known across the internet for writing ridiculously long stories and for getting retweeted by the director of ave mujica that one time.
our main interests are fire emblem and octopath traveler. other things we like include digimon, pokémon (especially horizons), ace attorney, professor layton, triangle strategy, bandori, and revue starlight. we can and will be extremely autistic about any and all of these things when you least expect it. watch out (i'm joking i swear)
we're an author both on ao3 and with a self-published book series. you can find our archive of our own here to read the seventeen million words we've posted there in the last eight years or so. we have a disease called fanfic writer. we also write an original action fantasy adventure series under the pen name of @crescentzephyr, and you can click there to find our tumblr or click here to check out our author website. new ao3 content comes on a weekly basis, and new chapters of our book series come out monthly on the eighth of the month.
we take writing commissions also! if you have something you would like us to write, feel free to DM us. our rate is $1 USD per 100 words written. we take payment upfront and promise a turnaround in under six weeks. we can write for any fandom we are familiar with or for original characters. our commissions are always open, so if you're interested, go on and reach out for more details.
as we mentioned before, we have DID. our system name is tempest heaven, hence our collective name of tempest. alters may or may not sign off their posts on this account, most likely with some tag like [alter] talks. we won't do this on every post though since we are extremely polyfragmented and fairly private. it'll come up when we feel like doing it. speaking of our DID, those from other parts of the internet might recognize us for making analyses about mutsumi and mortis from ave mujica when the anime was airing. if you do: yes, that was us. you found us. yay!
we're not on twitter anymore, but if you want to see our account for what we've posted before, it's here. we're most active on bluesky out of all social media. we've got a side blog here on tumblr for talking about DID/PTSD stuff under the username tempesthellhole, but followers there need to be 18+ for safety and comfort reasons.
that should cover it. welcome to our tumblr! enjoy!

having favorite fictional character feels so ridiculous sometimes because you'll see an image and go "fuck... my blorbo..." and then this is the image in question

this isn't canon by any means but one of my dearest octopath headcanons is that cyrus is afraid of blood. he handles himself very well all things considered when he finds out bodies are being drained of their blood for experimentation. but in my heart of hearts i think he would be a fainting risk every time he picked up one of those crystals. to me that is the most squeamish traveler and it is not even close. it's not real but it's real to me

actually the more i talk about midwestern bullshit i have lived through the more ridiculous i feel. the midwest is not real. let's all go to tornado alley baybee
sometimes i think about the wacky shit that has happened in my life and it just gives me pause. like yeah my dad did take me to a gun range and make me shoot a gun when i was eight years old. it was the only way to get him to get me a DS game i wanted so i did it even though i was scared and crying the entire time. i asked on bsky if this was normal and the answer i got was "yes but only if you live in the midwest." anyway the thing that im thinking about tonight specifically is that i was already showing signs of having OCD at this point so i was crying and convinced i was going to either die or accidentally kill somebody and it still took another 13 years for my OCD to get noticed by a professional?? what a world we live in
it was Winx Club: Mission Enchantix btw. the DS game. it was a 4kids DS game iirc. it was not a good enough game for all that but it's okay because fairies make me happy
incomplete list of batshit things that happened to me or at my school
ordinary life in a midwestern public school. and by ordinary i mean everybody is horrified when i tell them about it. trigger warning for mentions of gun/bomb threats (no one got hurt dw), suicide, racism, and SA
elementary school
in kindergarten, a dog from a local neighborhood got out and wandered into the school. one of the other kindergarten classes took care of him until his owner came by to get him. i later became best friends with a member of this family lmaoooo the dog's name was rex
in first grade, i got locked out during an intruder lockdown. there was no actual intruder, it was just people being paranoid about someone walking outside the school, but i was locked out and no one let me in for like 20 minutes
when i was in the second grade, there was a massive tornado warning that forced everyone into the fetal position in the corner for three hours. i, however, was a lucky fuck who had the flu and was not there. everyone was very upset with me for this when i came back a few days later and revealed i spent the entire day petting my dogs in the basement of my house
that same year, a goose decided to make its nest on the playground. the school didn't pay for a service to relocate the goose. so there was just police caution tape around that part of the playground to keep us from fucking with the goose eggs
in the third grade, we had a really shitty substitute teacher one day who screamed at the kids. the entire class spent recess hiding in the corner of the field by the playground trying to get away from her. i think she cursed at us? our complaints got her fired
in the fifth grade, a boy had a crush on me. to impress me, he tried to look cool by jumping off the swings. i told him not to do it, he didn't listen, and he broke his arm when he hit the ground. he went to the nurse, didn't come back for a few days, and returned with a cast. i felt so guilty that i helped him to write on his assignments the entire time his arm was broken
middle school
my middle school had very strict rules around drinking water. and by that i mean "you are not allowed to have a water bottle without a signed note from a doctor to say you need to drink water"
during flu season, they would cover the water fountains with plastic bags and duct tape to keep sicknesses from spreading, so there was no water without doctor approval since they didn't sell water in the cafeteria either
we also weren't allowed to have backpacks even though both elementary and high school students were allowed to have backpacks. we instead had to put everything into a three inch zipper binder. i still have back issues from this almost a decade after graduating. nice!
cell phones were to be powered all the way off in lockers. one day, the school busted a bunch of students after an amber alert went off during school hours. the faculty went around to every locker that was buzzing, opened it, turned the phone off, and then issued disciplinary action to the students whose phones were on during the alert
kids routinely pulled the fire alarm to keep from having to present in speech and debate class. one time, this led to a kid having a seizure in the middle of an evacuation. i don't think the person who pulled the alarm ever got in trouble for it
when i was in the eighth grade, a fight broke out during lunch where a kid picked up an entire chair and threw it at another student's back
my middle school had this occasional thing called "mix it up day" where instead of being able to sit where you wanted during lunch, the administration would give you a number corresponding to one of the 32 tables in the cafeteria. you had to make conversation for the entire lunch period or they would yell at you. if you brought a book to lunch, they'd confiscate it. the staff insisted this was not a punishment, but it was enforced daily on a younger grade than mine after they started misbehaving. it was absolutely a punishment
one day, my friend was grieving losing one of her online friends to suicide. the assistant principal saw her crying and told her to get over it and get too class. i still hate that woman to this day
freshman center
my school district used to have a unique school for the freshmen since there were so many students at the high schools that they couldn't put all four grades in the high schools. so the freshmen were all crammed into an otherwise retired school building for a single year. this led to absurd rates of bullying, gun/bomb threats, and suicide. i think my year was the first in over half a decade to not have a suicide? batshit
a teacher at the freshman center was openly bullying an autistic student in one of my classes. i tried to report him and the district promoted him to be a principal of an elementary school the following year
the freshman center was so crowded. we were packed in there like sardines. you couldn't even open your locker with how crowded it was
a teacher was exposed for racism and homophobia (violently shouting slurs at students) and also for not letting disabled students get their medication, leading to one diabetic student having a medical episode. and then within a year she was found dead under unknown circumstances
kids also routinely pulled the fire alarm here and then would take off running to escape the school. including on the first day of the school year. going to school with pyrophobia was not fun
on the last day of school during lunch, a group of boys started airdropping nudes from over 15 girls in the grade to anyone who had airdrop on. i tried to report it to the teachers only to be told to sit back down. so the people who did it never got punished and the school year just ended an hour later
this wasn't my year at the freshman center, but the year after me, some kids hosted a party in the staircase. everybody asked to be excused from class, went to the stairwell, and partied. they had a disco ball and food and everything. i don't know how they did this. a teacher found them from the noise and somebody panicked and threw a cake at her head
high school
a few assholes in my grade pulled a "prank" once where they filled water balloons with ketchup and mustard. they threw these water balloons at cars, ruining the paint jobs and fucking all sorts of shit up
a few kids vaped in the choir robe closet during school hours. i will never fucking understand the boldness this takes. somehow bolder than smoking weed in the bathroom because the robes absorbed the vape smell and reeked for weeks
right before covid hit in 2020, almost every bathroom in my school was closed because a group of students was (i am not joking) shitting in the sinks and urinals. and then rubbing their shit all over the walls and writing in it. the girls' bathrooms had used pads stuck on the walls. this was all over snapchat. in the last few weeks before lockdown, there was one individual girls bathroom open and a single boys bathroom on the opposite side of the school
actually the craziest part of that previous story is that this was the second time i had an encounter with a serial shitter. but that is a tale for another post. somebody ask me about it and i'll tell the full story because it took place outside of school but was also batshit wild
one of the boys bathrooms was not closed because of the shit vandalism though. this bathroom was closed because a kid did a backflip off one of the sinks, dislodging it from the wall and flooding the bathroom. this was also on snapchat iirc
one time a goose somehow got into the electrical system under the school during construction. and it died down there, taking power out of the school for a number of hours one day. the reasoning for the power outage was so batshit that half the school thought it was bullshit but nope. that was true
i had a teacher/coach who was um. i guess you could say emotionally abusive? i was on the speech and debate team, and i wear glasses due to severe nearsightedness. however she wouldn't let me wear them during performances since the light reflecting off the lenses was distracting. so i couldn't see anything, and that would make me squint. her way of fixing this was to (i am not joking) throw markers at me when i squinted so i would stop it. i'd flinch and then pry my eyes open to keep from getting hit again. in her words, it worked. this was the last time we spoke before covid hit. her throwing markers at my face
said teacher also gaslit me on a school trip after i was SA'd. she said i imagined it, and even if i didn't imagine it, then it was my fault for not standing up to the boy who did it. she proceeded to tell me about her addiction to aldi's after victim blaming me. i have a petty grudge against aldi's to this day
speaking of the speech and debate team, we had a taxidermy goose in the classroom. it was our mascot. we called him agoosetus. we took him to major tournaments to rub him for good luck
right before i went virtual for covid, one of the history classes had an incident. a student leaked a kahoot code to his friends, and they started spamming it with racist slur nicknames. the culprits? the same kids who threw ketchup and mustard balloons at cars
if anything happened during my senior year, i don't know about it since i was a virtual student and therefore not there at all. i graduated after not seeing any of my friends for over a year and unsurprisingly i am in contact with a whole five people from public school now
there are probably other wild stories from my public school days, but i don't remember them right now. i think this is enough anyway. i'm not posting this for sympathy or pity points or anything. i just wanted to point and laugh at the batshit things that happen in public schools. i'm not sure how standard it is for public school to be crazy since a lot of the people i'm closest with either went to my district or didn't go to public school at all. i hope this was nice entertainment. oh public school... i have not fucking missed you in the slightest

sometimes i remember mutsumi and mortis exist and i feel like im going to start crying because they're so important to me... what am i going to do... my little green things who i adore from the bottom of my heart... waaaaaaaah
Your guy's inbox being open is so exciting!!! We just wanted to give you all a personal thanks for your analysis on mutsumortis, and for your fanfics about the two. We've struggled with major imposter syndrome pretty much our whole life, and reading your work helped us overcome it and officially get our DID diagnosis. On top of that, your "goodnight, my beloved" fic has been our favorite for such a long time, it's so good that I can't even describe it. We plan on buying your book soon!
omg thank you so much for the kind message!! we're so glad to hear you enjoy our stuff!! and we hope you enjoy our book when you pick it up!!
same question we asked celeste: for those comfortable with answering, what's their favorite pokemon?
this will not be every alter in our system by any means since we are too polyfragmented for that. a lot of us honestly hadn't thought about it before this post and quite a few alters are still indecisive about it, so we might come back to edit this later on with more? i'm not sure. but for now, here are the ones who are confident about their favorites and willing to share. putting this under a read more because it's probably going to get long
yep! i talked about it a little bit here, but tldr: i am working on a magical girl series about someone with DID! a seemingly normal young woman finds out that she has alters and not only that but her main alter is actually a magical girl who has been saving the city from an unknown danger. so the story is about them developing their relationship with one another and then working together to save the world and each other. it's still a work in progress, but i have been working on it on the down low for a while. current title for the series is "Help! My Alter is a Magical Girl!" and i'm hoping to release the first part of the trilogy in the back half of 2027 (though this is subject to change, and i am still working on it obviously). when it does come out, it'll be over on my page for my self-published author stuff @crescentzephyr, and i'll also obviously announce it here. so yeah! details pending, but hopefully that'll be a thing before the end of next year!

Ok, this is just a silly question but if you were to write a magical girl with D.I.D how would you do it, would the powers be tied to the body or each alter, since your gf told me you are working on a relevant story?
i am in fact working on a relevant story! i'm a self-published author, and i'm currently planning out and developing a trilogy about this exact concept. current working title is "Help! My Alter is a Magical Girl!" and i'm hoping to release the first book at some point in the back half of 2027, though this is of course subject to change. you're never going to believe this, but it is about... well, someone with a magical girl alter. the way it works in this specific universe is that every magical girl has a "theme" for their powers. so for example, let's say someone had gemstone theming. all of her abilities would be focused around jewels, and all of her alters would be named after various gemstones (ruby, sapphire, emerald, etc). and while they might all have various individual abilities, they're all presented through the overall theme of these jewels. one alter might be able to create fire, another can another make plants grow, or another could another cast strong winds, and so on, but it all comes back to various gems they have or can summon as part of their magical girl abilities. i hope this makes sense? the alters have individual abilities but are united by a common theme and a common way these abilities present. more information about this series is coming as i develop it more, and when i finally publish it, i will be posting about it. so keep your eyes out for that within the next year and a half or so if that sounds interesting to you!
since my girlfriend was also doing this, i am saying fuck it and inviting people to leave me asks about DID stuff. or anything else. follow your heart. ill answer stuff later because i am so sleepy right now but fire away
