no judgement, just love

(alright, let's try this again)

Right, yeah, so last year I didn't even get close to what I wanted to do, so this time I'm going to give myself a little more leeway, yay! Hopefully that'll help me feel better even if I don't write as much, haha ╰(￣ω￣ｏ)

TOTAL: 3 / 10

✧ 🚧 ✧

Things I would like to update:

As usual, let's start with the Re:Zero stuff:

1) Start, From Minus

‘Citizens of the empire, be strong’—that was the only and most important teaching in Vollachia. And Subaru was. That is, a citizen of the empire and, thus, in his own, cowardly, revolting, tenacious way, strong.

Fifth and final chapter of this thing! That I didn't update last year, sorry!!

2) I’ll find you believing I’ll be found

“I heard the big guy sent one of his generals, so that means he must be tough, right?” Subaru stared. “You mean the Emperor?” “Whatever. Mainlanders aren’t even cool.”

The second part of my Three Dark Crowns AU! My goal with this chapter is to make the people who have read the books AND the people who haven't suffer equally! (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

3) Coins in a Wishing Well

A family curse. Subaru is familiar. At least Subaru’s father had loved him in spite of it. At least Reinhard didn’t need to use his teeth. It was hard to tell who had it worse, but Subaru wasn’t the type to dwell on that.

This is another chapter I've been wanting to write for a while!! This one is also based on a book I has a lot of fun reading, so you know, you've been warned

4) the difference between starlight and moonshine (Now on AO3!)

“But Subaru, you smell sooo good,” Emilia said, head full of pure thoughts and wonder. Which Subaru loved, yes. But. “I think it’s more that this world is full of perverts, Emilia-tan,” he said, because even he wasn’t about to lie to Emilia about this.

This is crack, sorry. Yes, the whole thing (～o￣3￣)～

✧ ✏️ ✧

Other stuff from various other fandoms:

5) a constellation of blood drops [Gundam:IBO]

Now, Gaelio might be in feelings with Mikazuki, but he’d like to think he isn’t completely brain-dead. He knows Mikazuki is a deeply flawed, troubled, damaged human being. But, as his friendship with McGillis can attest to, that’s apparently kind of his type.

The last chapter of my super self-indulgent fix-it fic! Please, please let me finish this thing this this year so I can clean it up and move the nice version to AO3 (;´༎ຶД༎ຶ`)

6) The Bridegroom’s Hedgehog [LCF] (Now on AO3!)

The Duke caught his hand in a motion that reminded Cale of a bird of prey diving toward its next meal. Something cold was slipped around his finger. Cale looked down and stared, dumbfounded, at the golden circle. Cold and—and cold, like biting winter wind. The kind of cold that cut, that ached.

The second chapter of my The Seventh Bride retelling, with plenty of revelations and surprise guest appearances. Please be surprised, please please please

7) remember me (but forget my fate) [LCF]

“I need your name.” Cale deftly swallowed the ‘our wedding shall be in spring’ that almost leapt out of his mouth. He nodded obediently. “It’s yours. What else?” “You need to pretend to be a commander.” Cale did a double take. Realized that Rosé meant it. “I’ll ask father for a magic spear. Anything else?”

We begin the fourth chapter of my TCF/LCF time loop suffering fic with a change in the POV character and my attempt to cram EVERYTHING from part one in two chapters, so that's going to be fun

8) our wishes are the right lure [Pokemon]

“What the hell kind of game is this?” “It’s a stress management assistant,” Ingo says, straight-faced. “It’s a gacha game. You poke the characters and they speak,” Emmet informs you, conspiratorially. “It’s a waifu game,” you conclude.

Second chapter for the pokemon submas reader-insert I owe the Pokemon Masters Ex gods, since I got both the twins sygna suits; as you can probably tell, I’m not going tot ake this seriously, like, at all

9) Home Is Where the Smoothies Are [Ben 10]

So many dimensions, so many universes, so many Bens. So many ways in which he could fail, in which he already has failed in some other world, in some other time, in some other way. All the versions of himself that had grown rotten, corrupted, tainted. Each one weirder and crazier than the last.

… I keep forgetting this series isn’t finished; I’m literally missing the very last chapter, but I just keep f o r g e t t i n g about it! it’s been so long!!

10) second chances (derogatory) [Persona 3] (Now on AO3!)

Ichor runs down his knuckles, staining his hands, and marks his bloody path. The one he chose to traverse just to have a god, any god, grant this wish.

I still haven’t played P3 Reload, but I bought it in december so now I at least have it!! I'd like to finish at least one playthrough before going back to this but, like I said, there are a couple of chapters that are 100% finished so we'll see!

✧ 🚧 ✧

Things I would like to start:

11) (we’ve gone) to the dogs [BSD]

His life ends with a bullet between his eyes, no hope for Yosano to do anything at all. Just a bang and then darkness; a shimmering instant of relief before he opens his eyes again in a place and time that hadn’t been his for years. And that’s where it all begins (again).

The thing that I did not post last year, despite the fact that, like I said, there’s a whole snippet ready to be posted; mostly bc my favorite character is Oda and the fandom seems pretty intense (in a bad way) when it comes to him, so I am kinda avoiding it

12) The Souls of Starfishes [Normal Me and Abnormal Friends]

They’ve gotten better at not flinching whenever they hear the name, but they’ve never quite managed to stomp out the hope that inevitably rises in them whenever they do. ‘Hajime’, it echoes with the beat of their hearts, discordant as they may be.

Normal Me and Abnormal Friends is one of my favorite android visual novels ever, and I really, really want to finally upload something for it this this year; this year for sure இ௰இ

13) sing us a song to move the stones [Persona 3]

Minato didn’t want a rerun of last time, though. He wanted to do much better; he wanted to go for broke. Minato turned around in the direction of the alley behind Port Island Station. This was just another choice he’d have to take responsibility for.

My attempt at a New Game+ fic that’s still also on hold until I play Reload, sorry

✧ ⚠️ ✧

Other things I wish I could get around writing, but that have added complications:

Even the best laid plans

Arrested for Attempted Romance

we'll build a bridge

*sigh* I'm still waiting for the Rokka no Yuusa author to remember the series; the Ben 10 romance fic is here because I have exactly two (2) ideas I want to write, but they're both crack (shocking, I know), and one is at least a little bit R-rated, so I'm being a coward about it; and the pokemon one I have been working on, but the fandom got too intense for my liking back when I was updating semi-regularly and I've dropped whole fandoms for that before (*cough*yurionice*cough*), so while I would love to update, I've been avoiding it.... o(￣┰￣*)ゞ

i could have not let everything pile up, but i didn'ttt!!!

might have something to update when i'm done, though
