1) this blog is exclusively for (gay) pirates, (gay) clowns, and (gay) frogs.

2) I baked 3 dozen carrot cupcakes, 3 dozen chocolate chip cookies and 3 carrot bread loaves yesterday. Will bake more today.

Why, what's it to you? Is BDM not beautiful enough? It doesn't strike enough love in your heart? Not enough fear in your bones? Not enough libido in your loins???

And who are you to say what's real and what's not? Who are you to question my truth or my pain? You have yet to walk a mile in my shoes; to see the world through my eyes; to hold life in my hands.

Of all the things you want to know in this world, this is what you choose? Have you no passion? Have you no dreams? Have you no will of your own that you follow the path of the begotten who cower behind their idols? Even if I did tell you, your mortal tongue will never be able to pronounce it; your mortal ears with ring as a thousand gongs echo through your bones. Your fingers with ache and curl as they attempt to spell it onto parchment.

No way in the impassive stretch of eons that is my existence am I imparting to you my name. I know what you are. You are the fae, trying to trick me into servitude, asking for my name. I spurn thee. You may not have my name.

However...

You may refer to me by a sublunary name... A name so pure and true, one shan't fail to keel as the waves pulse through your auricular concha. A name for myself...

Which so happens to be Reveka.

🐈 Do you have any pets? Are there any pets that you want?

Do I have any pets? Pffft

That's an understatement. Seven dogs, a multitude of ducks, chickens and turkeys. We also used to have pigs but at the beginning of the pandemic, our government made it illegal to raise swine at home.

I'd love to have some reptiles. I love snakes, turtles and bearded dragons but my dogs all have a penchant to hunt; the retrievers have gotten really good at catching rat snakes and field mice, and Belladonna (the little toasty brown dingo) loves lizards in particular. Our walls are covered in geckos; she gets them all. I fear for any tiny pets we might have.

🐓 What is a comfort movie/show for you?

Kiki's Delivery Service and South Park are the two things I put on whenever I need background noise or just something fun to watch without actually paying attention (i.e. when i'm cooking or crocheting). I think I've watched KDS eight times this year alone and I've rewatched every SP season thrice since covid started. It's gotten to the point where I can recite every episode from memory. That's not a problem, right? Rick and Morty is a close second, since they pulled SP from Netflix. I've rewatched all of R&M maybe 5 times but it's only a few seasons so it's much faster than SP's TWENTY FIVE 😳😳

🍃 What is a plant you find beautiful?

Generally speaking, I love all edible plants; rice, soy, fruit, dandelions, mushrooms (though, those aren't plants). If I can eat it, it's my favorite. Perennials are top tier. From our garden, my favorite ornamentals are False Shammrocks (Oxalis Triangularis), Persian Shields (Strobilanthes dyeriana), Plumeria/Frangipani (we call them Kalachuchi here) and the Spider Lilies are pretty dope too.

Edit:

Also. The Nauclea Orientalis (Bangkal locally) is an ornamental tree with these amazingly fragrant burrs. We had one in the park outside our old apartment. It should be in bloom right now.

💋 First kiss fics. Love em or hate em?

I love them. They're so precious~ sweet gentle first kisses, accidental first kisses, "shut up or I'll kill you" first kisses, "hey what's that over there?" surprise first kisses. I love them all. You can never go wrong with them

🙋‍♀️ Do any irl people know you write fanfic?

I have met people through fanfic. I became a beta reader for TokiCham and by coincidence we had moved to a city near her work and I got to hang out with a few times (we did a valentine's day marathon, watched The Good Dinosaur in cinemas, when to Cosplay Mania 2017 for her birthday. The last thing we did together before I moved back to my old city was go to Enchanted Kingdom. She went with her workmates and I showed up like a creepy stalker lol. Cham I know you don't use tumblr anymore but know I miss you a lot~ We still chat on FB every once in a while. Mostly just to check-in on each other when there's a holiday or an earthquake.)

The only other fanfic writer I'm close with is Cyriusli. We've been close ever since I discovered her work and we video chat constantly. Even after 8 years of friendship, I haven't been able to meet her yet, even when I do go back to the states. The closest I ever got to seeing her was when we went to Montreal for my sister's husband's birthday and it was only a 2 hour drive away from Cyriusli's city but I wasn't able to go back down nor could she have drown up across the border.

there was a whole group of us that chatted, sent videos and played games on Kik. it's all thanks to Roro-XP but sadly she was the first to disappear from the group then everyone else just slowly dwindle out. no one has been around since 2017-2018. sadness~

😈 Has there been a point in a story where you did something just to be playfully mean to your readers?

oh yes. I stopped writing. That's the meanest thing you can do. Also I promised fics and never wrote them mhmm mhmm. Very mean indeed. I also have an angst ZoSan fic with a HORRIBLE plot twist at the end. I also have one where it started super cute then instantly became heart wrenching and painful in a blink of an eye and ended with a cliff hanger.

don't get me wrong I love my fics and I want them all to be complete but........ can't they just write themselves??? I just want to lay in bed hugging my Chopper plushie daydreaming about my fics. I don't want to sit at a desk for hours and hours writing about them. I want to dreeeeeeeam~~~~

Got a new sketch book and highlighters today. I absolutely love Starry Night and am extremely happy with his. The paper is also nice and thick that ink doesn't bleed through like in my other pad. Your requests are on their way.

Also because I'm feel extra this week, I'm also opening doodle requests with the new highlighters. Send an ask with a character or ship in the palette of your choice~

I’m a few days late but here’s a cosplay makeup video I meant to post for Chopper’s birthday~
