is it okay if i draw you some yumeshipping fanart??? if so, could you also include a pic of your s/i in your response? /nf

also silly little scenario for you:

Miku makes a song dedicated to you and doesn’t releases it until after she suddenly sings it during one of her concerts that you went to, then adds you in the music video!!! ^^

omg woah that would be awesome, if you want to sure!!

Hee hee :3

To be honest my longing for writing a fic like this 100% comes from my love for a fic I read a while ago that dealt with this topic!

(Pls read it's sooo good)

I remember being like,,,sooo relieved at finding another fic that perfectly showed how unfair Siffrin's situation was. It's not too often I see fic writers explore Siffrin's annihilation of his culture in a more introspective way, nor do many show Siffrin's more negative emotions/reactions to it as well.

For my fic I wanted to explore the party's dynamic with Siffrin and one another, and how their tendencies to sort of brush off/deflect their knowledge of his culture and how it inevitably reflects the way Siffrin would start to get snippy/upset until they eventually explode. I like seeing moments where Siffrin actually stands up for himself and puts boundaries with how his friends treat him sometimes, especially when it comes to their culture.

Which isn't to say that this is character bashing of any way for the party! More like,,,a deeper understanding to their characters and their tendency to not really relate to other cultures they aren't aware of.

There are so many moments in the game where we see the party brush off/laugh at Siffrin's introspection of his culture. Even going as far as to straight up accusing him of lying/trying to make a joke. It's always saddened me to see not many writers bring up how disheartening it is for him. Which is why I've planned ahead for a fic that talks about these issues.

Just in general I'd like to discuss Siffrin's tendency to be a people pleaser and start to deconstruct it for his healing journey. Learning that it's ok to express his negative emotions without the fear that his friends will react badly to it.

My only problem is wondering if I should make it a reallyyy long one shot or multi chaptered. Thought I'm leaning towards more multi chapters with each one being based off of each character and how it changes their relationship with Siffrin.

Anyways I probably over explained a bit..😵‍💫

Pink and black !!! Orrrrr pink and white ♡

I don’t know what happened with tumblr but I didn’t get a notification about being mentioned, but then I saw this ask and I checked it out and!! Dear god!! I love it so much!!

Hello love!! Always amazing to see other hijabi friends on here.

The very simple answer to this is that it depends on who you talk to.

I personally don't mind it when hair is out. I think having her hair out at home makes sense. Obviously, if someone who isn't Muslim saw her wearing it at home, they'd assume that was the ruling, which can lead to some misconceptions about Islam and hijab. I also think showing hair would be more relatable since you can show the struggles of hijab and haircare, so I've always found it more interesting personally. However, there are many others who find it odd, or uncomfortable, and for valid reasons!

The truth is that its really up to you. Take some time to reflect on the necessity of the hijab-less scenes. Do they help with characterization and plot? Could it be changed so that shes wearing hijab, or she isn't at home? If not, then go ahead with it. I do recommend, however, that she still remains in modest clothes on-page. Even though she could wear whatever she wants at home, it feels a bit disrespectful to have her in anything revealing either way.
