(Y'know, I don't think you planned for me to write a whole essay, but that's what i have to do now. I can't leave this topic alone as a single funny sentence. It means a lot to me, obviously.)

So surprisingly enough, I actually do not think that Hatsune Miku should be real. I think that being a concept makes her MORE of an important figure. Don't worry, I will explain what I mean by that.

So, in the current state that she is in, Miku is a figure that can be anything. The fact that she isn't real means that anything a person could want her to be, she could be. There is no fact to Miku. And because she can be anything, it fosters communities where they talk about what she could be. Those communities can make their own thoughts and songs about what they think she's like.

If she were a real person, she would not have the same type of outreach that she has now. Anyone can buy her program and use her in their songs. If she were real, we'd probably never know about her because she would be another Japanese popstar who we wouldn't care about. But it's because she isn't real that people can know her.

It's because she's only a digital creation that everyone can know her. People can go online and find songs with her by millions of different people. Everyone can have their own Miku, which makes her infinitely more well known than any real popstar.

Miku, in her current state, is a vessel; she's a vessel of creation. How people use that vessel shapes her into being what she is. She's an amalgamation of what people project her to be through what they use her in. She is every single song, talkloid, and alarm clock sound she is in.

Hatsune Miku is less the singer and more the community of people who use her. And that is why she needs to be digital.

ahhh pls you’re gonna make me soft too >_< eret would just be such a great s/o...

now playing: electric love by børns

i think eret would be super mature about a long distance relationship first of all

they see you’re spending time with someone else, that’s cool! if you did something fun he’d love to hear about it. they trust you of course and there’s never any jealousy....

.....although they do wish they could be the one with you so they could cuddle and kiss you :’)

likes calling you and hearing about your day

wants to know the updates on the bitch at work (will give you advice, trying not to give into his sassy side but can’t help), wants to know if you saw a cute dog, wants to know if you’re genuinely ok

eret always makes sure to remind you that they love and appreciate you

likes to send you cool, motivational shit they find on insta, or sometimes just random videos

sometimes you’ll be out shopping and find a dress or pair of shoes or literally anything and you can’t stop yourself from buying two

one for you, one for eret

you’ll send it to him without telling him and when they receive it, they’ll call you straight away on facetime whilst also going on stream

wants you to see they’re immediate reaction but also wants to show chat how cool the new platform shoes you gifted him are! “fuck gender roles”

you once found these stickers of frogs holding bi pride flags and he now has one stuck on his phone case next to a photo of you and him (i actually have them and they’re so cute)

eret knows you love hearing they’re voice so depending on the time difference, he’ll send you voice messages for you to wake up to

“good morning angel”

“i love you so much”

“you’re gonna kill it today”

they’re wholesome and hella supportive like that

calls you when your having a stressful day and if you don’t feel like talking, eret will just ramble on about something until you fall asleep just so you can hear they’re voice

also number one person to hype you up!

retweets any selfies you post or puts them on their insta story

often says that everyone is gonna be screwed when you see each other in person next because together you’re just too hot of a couple

everyone agrees on that

a real power couple

because you just have that connection, you just vibe so perfectly

you don’t get to see each other in person as much as you’d like

but eret does surprise you sometimes

will call you late in the evening, telling you to get to the roof because there’s going to be a meteorite shower any second now that you’ll both be able to see and he wants to watch it whilst on the phone with you

rushes you over the phone, making sure you’re running up the stairs of your apartment building

but when you get to roof

there he is

stood next to a picnic and cushions upon cushions

there’s lots and lots of hugs and cuddles

and also lots of photo taking

eret even brings a polaroid camera so you have photos to put on your wall and he has a newer photo of you both to put in his phone case

eret uses he/they pronouns (correct me if i’m wrong) so i tried to alternate between them :)

ah, first i hope your day gets better, i’m sending you lots of virtual hugs <3 i’m glad my george fluff was able to comfort you just a bit. pls don’t forget to drink plenty of water and have some fruit or other snacks! :)

and ofc i can recommend some blogs!

so for blogs that inspired me to start writing for mcyt, there’s @cottagecoregeorge, @dreamcatcherrs and @thesolferino . i highly recommend all three of them!

my icon is a pic of the character zhan zheng xi from the manga 19 days! i highly recommend it, even though i’m currently behind... but! if anyone reads it too, who’s your fave from the main four? i’m finally just accepting the fact that i think mine is zheng xi (i also have a soft spot for mo although i think everyone does)
