Is it obvious that I have no clue how to use Tumblr? It's probably pretty obvious. I go by Litotes, she/her is preferred but all pronouns work, and uhhhh currently fixated on MCYT G/T and MCYT in general. I'm trying my best, here. This is the first actual social media I've ever really had an account on, so excuse any etiquette blunders! This blog is probably just going to be a dumping ground for my dumb ideas and a place to appreciate other people. AO3: Litotes_is_Trying (where I'm most active) Askbox: If you send me an ask, I would die for you
I sort of just realized that I'd basically dropped off the face of the Earth after checking through my email and seeing that there have been people interacting with my stuff every now and again, so I figured that I owe the handful of you that'll see this a bit of an explanation!
I haven't been in a great mental state since late June of 2021, so for a little over half a year now. I couldn't write anything that I was happy with, I stopped enjoying it. Suddenly I would find myself staring at blank documents, paralyzed with an inability to write down a single sentence that I considered passable, and the amount of half-baked ideas and drafted works that I've thrown out over the past few months is a tad bit overwhelming, if I'm honest.
Recently, though, I've managed to condense that destructive urge into something a smidge more productive: editing. All of the docs that house my fics--finished works, works in progress, and rambling bullet-point style outlines--have undergone some heavy editing that's left me more satisfied with the end products.
In my opinion, this has been a huge step towards getting back into writing. This school year has been particularly harsh in terms of using up mental energy, so this process has taken much longer than I would have liked, but it seems like slow and steady wins the race yet again. I can't make any promises, but I'm hoping to have the edited chapters out soon.
As for this blog, I've decided to move to a new account. I feel that I've drastically limited myself through my intense focus on the MCYT G/T community in particular when I'd really love to be able to chatter about all of my AUs. Presumably, my Borrowing Brothers fic is what you're here for since I've never mentioned this Tumblr in my Ao3 notes, and I fear I've misled you in some way.
If you'd still like to keep up with me, my new account is @litotes-is-trying. I believe that I made it in October, and it's mostly been collecting dust, but I'd like to have it as a sort of storage space for my ideas: AUs, worldbuilding tidbits, headcanons, and early drafts of new/in-progress works. Obviously, the blog is in need of some serious housekeeping to make a tagging and navigation system (and to sort the poor thing out aesthetically), but if you're interested in seeing what I'll do or are curious about some of the inner workings of my other AUs, you know where to find me.
I'll (hopefully) see you there, but until then I hope that you're holding up alright. Feel free to drop me a line on my new account!

You really want to know why Dream hid his face? Well, that was because he was a borrower. so, what’s a borrower? Well, a borrower is basically a small human they look exactly like use just, smaller. Dream was an interesting case as he had borrowed multiple beans phones and had been able to build his own computer and get it working on human software, which honestly was a miracle. Dream had used the computer to get access to both games and the internet which he then used it to make a YouTube channel, where he had made friends with a few beans, though they could never know what he was. Dream lives in his small home under the floorboards with his parents and his younger sister Drista. The house he lived in was his best friends Georges house which once he realized that he kind of had a mental break down. Knowing that you were so close to your friend, but they had no idea you were there. Dream was a reckless borrower he would often take unnecessary risks, like jumping off tables and counters or borrowing during the daytime. He was more in shape then Drista, so, he did all the borrowing also because she was too young, and his parents were getting older, so they weren’t as agile as he was.
Dream had just gotten off a call with George and Sapnap he texted them a bit after even saying maybe they could meet up soon. His friends were ecstatic at the thought of finally meeting Dream in person.
He was now getting ready to go on a borrowing trip. Dream needed to get food, he hadn’t gone borrowing in about a week and they were getting low. He was walking through the tunnels to the kitchen he walked out onto the counter, when he saw a plate of food sitting out, he knew it was probably a trap, but He hesitantly walled toward the plate it had crackers, gapes, bits of cereal a bunch of stuff. Once he was at the edge of the plate, he looked around thinking he might be being recorded. That’s when he saw it, Georges Phone, recording him. He felt his blood go cold; George was watching him. How did he know he was going to be here? He had been so carful! Then it hit him he had taken a paperclip from George’s desk along with a battery he must have noticed. Dream was so lost in his thought he didn’t hear the door to Georges room open. he felt the vibration of footsteps as he froze knowing George was coming to the kitchen to get him. He looked the entrance to the kitchen seeing George walk in. Dream was snapped out of it as the light flicked on, George looked right at him.
“Dream?” was all George said then Dream bolted. He ran toward the wall at lightning speed, blood pumping in his ear so loud that he could not hear what George was saying. He didn’t want to look behind himself he didn’t want to see the giant hand coming toward him, but he did and regretted it instantly as he saw George’s hand reaching for him. He panicked as the hand got closer and closer, he quickly pulled his needle out of his cloths and stabbed George’s hand. George shrieked with pain pulling his hand away. Dream took the moment to sprint for the hole in the wall he was so close to safety. Then he heard George yell
“Dream, wait!” it shook him to his core, as the voice was so loud, he had to cover his ears. He was only a few inches from the hole in the wall ‘so close’ was all he could think as he then went to run again, seeing safety inches from him, he ran faster than he thought possible. He lunged for the hole in the wall hiding in the tunnel that led back home he saw one of Georges fingers squeeze through the hole right next to him. He slowly scooted away from it as he felt his chest heave with fear. Then George spoke up.
“Dream please, I won’t hurt you I promise.” George seemed desperate. Dream thought on it for a moment, before saying something.
“leave, please, don’t hurt me” George then retracted his hand, Dream sighed in relief. he knew he couldn’t leave without the food; his family would know he had been caught if he came back with nothing. He waited and listened as George’s footsteps left the room. He then peaked out to check If George had actually left the room. He had, so Dream took a step out of the wall again, seeing that Georges phone was gone. He walked back over to the plate of food quickly climbing on it and shoving as much food in his bag as possible. He slung the bag over his shoulder, looking to the hallway feeling a little bad for George, I mean how you feel if the first time you meet you friend, they ran from you? Dream ignored his guilt for the time being. He walked back into the wall and toward home. Once home he helped his parents put the food away though he didn’t really say anything to them. Once done he quickly went to his room seeing that he had a missed call from George. His heart sank as he listened to the message he had been sent.
“Dream, I’m sorry, please come back, I didn’t mean to scare you. I didn’t know you were the one taking my stuff.” Dream was about to cry he knew what would happen now that George knew, he’d have to leave. He just hoped George wouldn’t tell anyone. His family didn’t know that he’d been caught but they’d find out eventually. He turned his computer off and laid in bed crying until he fell asleep.

Warning: The story below contains swearing. If you don't like, don't read. :D
Tommy was startled awake by knocking on his door. He sat up, yawning, "Who is it?" A feminine voice spoke up from behind the door.
"You're breakfast is ready, Master Theseus." Tommy internally groaned. He had forgotten. His parents always made the servants call him by his first name. He already knew there was no point in getting them to at least call him Tommy. They would never budge, so Tommy just had to accept it. "Please, get dressed and make your way to the dining hall." Tommy heard the clacks of heels fade. He stood up, stretching enough to hear the bones pop. He made his way to his closet. A walk-in closet lined shelf to shelf with 18th to 19th century clothing. His parents always did have the flair for dramatics.
Tommy groaned as he remembered from when he was a young child, his parents held huge parties and Tommy would have to dress in pretentious suits. He was forced to wear whatever his parents out him in. But now he had free range of that except his parents still bought the clothes. Therefore, he had to dress in the "proper" attire.
Whilst on their trip, they wore normal clothing like everyone else. However, Tommy was sure that his parents had those burnt as soon as these clothes had arrived.
Tommy chose a white poet blouse and black trousers. He slipped on a pair of black leather, heeled boots. Afterwards he slipped on a thin red tailcoat jacket. He walked towards the mirror and sighed. He walked towards the small closet next to it. Inside it was kind with jewelry and all sorts of accessories.
Tommy would never admit it, but he liked wearing the jewelry. Everything here was bought by his mother, either by herself or when they went shopping together. It was one of the few things that made it feel like he was connected to her.
He tapped a chin on his finger as he looked over the jewels, wondering what he should wear today.
"I like this kid. He has taste." Tommy easily recognized the voice as Techno's.
"Only because it matches yours, fucking prick." That one was Wilbur's.
"I think they look rather lovely." Phil. He heard Wilbur groan.
"Only because you have a weird desire for shiny things." It took everything Tommy had to not laugh as he heard Phil's offended squawk. He watched as Tubbo and Ranboo flew in front of him, staring at the large amount of precious jewels and metals. The two dead teens flew around, taking a gander at all the pretty objects. Tommy decided to focus back on the task on hand.
"Oh, oh, Theseus! What about this one?!" Tommy froze. At the edge of his peripherals he could see Tubbo pointing at a golden ring. But what caught him most off guard was that the tiny ghost was looking up at him as if expecting an answer.
"Tubbo! You ruined it!" Wilbur groaned loudly. Tommy watched as the other three moved to float in front of him. Tubbo was apologizing loudly.
"Sorry, sorry! I forgot!" Wilbur groaned again. He chose to suddenly get in front of Tommy's face.
"Hey, gremlin. We know you can see us! We heard your parents talking to the new people about your powers and shit. So you can drop the act." Tommy's mind was going a mile a minute as he tried to process everything.
Of course they knew about his powers. It only made sense that the ghosts would have overheard his parents talking to the new servants. He didn't... He wanted to continue playing. And that's just what he would do.
He ignored them as he reached out to grab a gothic red brooch choker. "Hmm, this one looks good." He walked over to the mirror and clipped it on accordingly. He turned his head from side to side slowly as he looked at his reflection. This piece actually looked nice with his current outfit. He hummed as he walked back to the closet.
The looks on the ghosts' faces almost made him lose his shit. They look downright offended. He simply pushed past them and moved towards the sections of rings. He traced his hands over them slowly before picking up a metal band ring infused with red and black diamonds. He slipped it on and closed the jewelry closet door. He moved back the desk, grabbing a hairbrush and styling his hair back with some gel. He set the brush down before opening the cupboards in the desk, pulling out a small makeup box. It was his only one on hand. He was sure that his parents would have the rest of them here at the house soon, perhaps along with a few new products as well.
He hummed softly as he applied a thin layer of makeup to his face. He watched in his peripherals as the ghosts came and sat on his desk, watching him. Wilbur's voice picked up again.
"So you just gonna ignore us?" Tommy simply ignored them once again, applying a light shade of red eyeshadow. "So is this how we're going to play it?" Tommy finished up his makeup session with a light finish of lip balm, tucking his makeup box away after finishing up. He looked at himself once more in the mirror before strutting off towards the door, ready for his breakfast. He smirked softly as he closed the door behind him, hearing a loud shout. "This means war!" He walked off down the long hallway. He wonders what's for breakfast.

Am bored and want to talk about Minicraft. So have a few little facts about the AU!
Wilbur found Tommy while exploring a new house. Tommy was abandoned by his parents and didn't know how to properly borrow, but Wilbur instantly fell in love with his chaos and adopted him as a brother
Dream likes wearing his handmade cardboard mask and his poncho because it's gotten him out of bad situations. Humans didn't know what he was and were too scared as he ran into the walls
George and Sapnap knew about Dream after living in the house for a week. George knew he was forgetful, but something was up with things going missing
Tubbo actually has a lot of medical expertise and knows how to deal with quite a few different injuries
Mr. Squeegee died about a month before Skeppy and Bad met, one of the reasons Bad became so attached to Skeppy so quickly
One of the borrowers has gotten a leg stuck in a snap mouse trap :)
This au will be based in an aquarium with Dream being the owner and head manager of the establishment. The aquarium has both normal fish and a unique show of diverse Mer.
The Mer are trained like dolphins and have very limited English (they can say one or two words, not full sentences) and each enclosure will have a designated trainer/handler.
Here is who is what in this au! And for reference, the mer are all the size of the species that are based on. And for the sake of fun and science, all species of mer can survive both salt and freshwater.
Dream: Human, aquarium owner, and head manager.
George: Earless seal mer (mascot and main attraction)
Tommy: Human, handler in training
Ranboo: Black-banded sea Krait mer/naga
Tubbo: Mudskipper mer
Techno: Human, Handler/security guard
Philza: Flying fish mer
Wilbur: Yellow flapjack octopus
Jack: Human, handler
Niki: Nurse shark mer (or maybe human vet, not sure yet)
Sam: Human, head of security
Sapnap: Red fire eel mer
Karl: Mandarinfish mer
Quackity: Human, handler
Foolish: Human, maintenance
Puffy: Human, vet, and medic
Ponk: Lionfish mer
Badboyhalo: Human, handler, and supply manager
Skeppy: Teal crown tail Betta mer
Fundy: Dolphin mer
Jshlatt: Arowana mer
Eret: Blue and purple giant Betta mer
Antfrost: Serubi catfish mer
Charlie: Blobfish mer
If you guys have better ideas for species or who should be mer/human, feel free to send an ask with your ideas! These were just off the top of my head.
I wanted some of them to be bigger species for g/t purposes but I could find many that weren't squid or sharks.

Would y'all be interested in a Mer au series that takes place in an aquarium and Dream is the owner? (Imma make him a nice guy because quite frankly, villainous Dream scares me)
A majority of the smp members will be mer but Few of them will be animal handlers or workers at the aquarium.
