Betting that if little Kazuha could read all the Ayato & Vigil!MC asks sent to you, he'd either be fighting everyone physically or sulking in a corner.
Or both. In that order JAHSHSJAAJMA

lowk i was not expecting u to come back this year omg 😭😭 MISSED U FR THOOOI
OMG LUNAAAAAAAAAAFHRJKFHJHDSJKGHAKGH HOWVE YOU BEEN - actually I wasn't even expecting it myself 💀💀 but here i am.
There's tons of adjustments and I won't be as active in writing anymore, but I'm back and I'm still cooking those fics up in the background... slowly 💀 they're simmerin'.
I'm genuinely curious, do you swallow a dictionary whole whenever you write? AJSBSNSM /j
But seriously, is it okay to ask you for tips on how to expand one's vocabulary? Cuz I'd eat your writing style three times a day. 🧎♀️🧎♀️
HELPASDHSADHSAJK i eat dictionaries for dessert /j /LH
(imsoveryflatteredthoughomg🥺)
Okay but for tips, well, I advise to have a dictionary/thesaurus nearby! When you begin to describe things, just pause for a brief moment and try to think of substitute words.
Say for example:
It's hard to see in the night. Other than its dark setting, sometimes, very few stars shine at all.
This is your sentence! Nothing bad, but it can be better. You don't need to use very intricate adjectives each time, mix it up a notch. What is something that can be a better substitute for 'dark' and 'shine'?
It's hard to see in the night. Other than its crepuscular setting, sometimes, very few stars scintillate at all.
Mm, sounds a bit fancier now 🥴✨
Look up synonyms in the thesaurus and remember the one you used, then make sure to apply it next time it's needed. Take 'crepuscular', and use it when you're about to describe something dark later on.
This is mainly how I endeavor to broaden the scope of my vocabulary; get a word (any kind! verbs/nouns/adjectives/yadayada!), take note of its meaning, and make sure to use it. Sometimes when I see a word that I particularly like for no reason I try to incorporate it in the narrative just to build a sentence around it.
That way, I'll get a better understanding of how the word itself works, and it'll be easier to slot it in my writing.
Don't just use them once, too!
The brain remembers things you do a lot.
As they say, old habits die hard- and that's because your mind is used to doing it. The same goes for using words and expanding your vocab!
One thing I often do when I read and see a word that's beyond my comprehension, is to I write it down in a notepad. I'll get a whole list of unknown words afterwards lmao. Try it!
Then, after identifying what they mean, keep the list and apply the words in your own writing until it's basically second nature to use it. This way, you can get a broader sense of it all.
I also have a tendency to classify words into 'basic and fancy' lmao, which is subjective, but for me, this method works alright, so it may be of help to others too- adhasjdsah
Take the word 'worsen', you see it a lot and it's pretty basic. It is self-explanatory, it makes things twice as awful and severe. What is a fancier word for 'worsen'? Mm, exacerbate.
Worsen - Exacerbate
I will then write both of this in a piece, not just one! Think of fancier stuff for basic words and use them both.
Heavenly - Utopian
Annoying - Pestiferous
Suggest - Propound
Guilt - Penitence
Masterpiece - Magnum Opus
Etc, etc! Really, dictionary/thesaurus is your friend, and don't be afraid of asking Google 'what's' too!
Believe me, I've asked stuff like: "What is a word for 'to become a hopeless ball on the floor'" SAJDSHADA of course, there's no exact word for it- but you will be given stuff that will help construct a sentence in its likeness.
"Sinking to the floor, curling his knees and holding himself close" works just fine, right? 😆
NNGNHNGNHGNHNG THAT SCARA SHORT FIC WAS SO GOOD? LIKE DESPITE BEING A FUCKING SOFTY, IT DIDN'T COMPLETELY OVERCAME THE FACT THAT HE'S STILL A LIL BITCH AND I FUCKING LOVE THAT UUGUHUHUHGGHH
SJSJJSS AW THANKS :>>
Let's say MC managed to smack sense into him to the point that he can simmer down from being internally angy 24/7 lmao.
I love the idea of him being a healer, too, and a lowkey worrywart for mc—I MEAN I MEAN IMAGINE if they're in a party with another group-
Ally: [injured, looking at Scara]
Scaramouche: Oh, you want heals? Well too fUC*ING BAD—
[Name]: Heal me, darn it, I'm dying!
Scaramouche: Dumb woman always running into messes like a piece o— [heals anyway]
[Name] flew out from nowhere, still the color of a kindled flame, resounding nonstop jingles as though she's panicking. It's an amusing thing to see; a seelie chasing away another seelie.
BABY'S JEALOUS UEUEUTHEU THAT'S SO FUCKING ADORABLE I'M GONNA CRY 😭😭 I CAN JUST IMAGINE THIS RANDOM SEELIE FREAKING OUT BECAUSE MC'S CHASING THEM AWAY LMAOABDJAH
i have a feeling that whoever they're looking for is alice or gold hmmmm 🤔
BB'S DEFINITELY JEALOUS. Panicking, too, just imagine her jingling in her hiding spot as Albedo passes by- because success she wasn't found!
But then wait- he's talking to this warming seelie- okay, nothing wrong- wait, the seelie's flying away. Nothing wrong with that either, NO WAIT- AND ALbEDO'S FOLLOWING?? HE'S NOT LOOKING BACK??
COULD IT BE THAT HE MISTOOK THAT FOR HER??
[cue Seeker!MC going off like an alarm clock speeding away from her hiding place adasjdhjsakd]
ATTAAAAAAAACK!
Poor other seelie, just wanted to go back to its court smh-/laughing my absolute bum off

Since everyone is saying Mercy reminds them of Two Birds, I'm raising you The Story of Us by Taylor Swift. Especially these lyrics:
"Why are we pretending this is nothing? I tell you I miss you but I don't know how."
"So many things that I wish you knew. So many walls up, I can't break through. / So many things that you wish I knew, but the story of us might be ending soon."
"I'm dying to know, is it killing you like it's killing me?"
"But you held your pride like you should've held me."
Afafshsnssk the whole song overall fits them imho. But what about you, Rei? Which song(s) do you think fits them most? (・ω・)
OH WOW Countess 😩 These parts do fit, and oddly enough it works for both Xiao and Mercy!MC uuuu 🥺 Such tragedY.
'Why are we pretending this is nothing?' THIS 〒▽〒 the fact that they know that their relationship is basically nonexistent and it seems that it's only MC who cares about ameliorating it.
Oh dear these siblings. Sigh.
And AHH as for me? Mm, I don't really have a song song in mind, but more of a theme song? Listening to them as I write angsts is just splendid T-T
Hero Memories does the trick for me, the moment the violin starts its little solo? MY HEART! I envision that as the time MC remembered Xiao's sacrifice. Give it a listen, dear, it hits the heart :')
your tyranny kazuha art where he says "your majesty" AAAAUUHHHGHJGJGJGYGHTHG
the first one got me so giddy and smiley he looks so fucking precious
BUT YOU CANNOT IM SURE YOU CAN BTW UNDERSTAND HOW I FUCKING WHEEZED UNTIL MY LUNGS FELT LIKE COLLAPSING BECAUSE I CANNOT SCREAM AT 12 AM, I HAD TO BURY MY FACE ON MY PILLOW AND PUNCH MY BED WHILE KICKING MY FEET OH MY GOD KAZUHA HAS ME ON CHOKE HOLD AND I WOULDN'T COMPLAIN AT ALL
RAWRAHDAJSHDASDADJASD GLAD THE ART DELIVERED SUCH A REACTION CAUSE I HAVE BEEN clawing my hair out TRYNA PERFECT HIS EXPRESSION GUHFADHASDTHANKSHANNIEDEAR
AND- CHOKE?? 😳😳 myohmyohmyymymymmyy
(ps i swear whenever i see you pop up in my dashboard/inbox i take an ungodly amount of time staring at that- THAT-
Hello, how are you doing tonight/day? (≧▽≦) I hope you are doing well as you are reading this. I'm glad your surgery went well!
I had this idea where your AUs are fiction stories to other AUs. How would the MCs react upon reading them?
For instance, I can imagine Tyranny!MC reading Vigil and empathizing with Kazuha (we're gonna pretend that Vigil! Kazuha and Tyranny! Kazuha are two different people ehe) because she, too, knows the pain of losing (a) sibling(s).
Or Absconder!MC reading the stories of Astrolabe!MC and pondering over whether or not she'll eventually be forgotten as well. With her ruined kingdom, the few people who knows she's still alive, the immortality curse and all. It's not farfetched, isn't it? *sobs*
The last one I can think of is more light-hearted. 4NEMO/Fleur! MC reading stories of Geisha! MC and gushing while self-inserting herself as the MC of that AU. Like come on, who wouldn't be gushing over handsome men visiting you 7 days a week? XDD *insert concerned looks from the four wind boys*
I AM SUFFERING COUNTESS LOVELY, I- am in physics class reading this in a reckless endeavor to escape maths and sciences-
But that aside, thank you! It was frightening D:
NOW THIS THIS THIS IDEA. I love converging universes (and ficlets and fanfictions) like so much.
Rancor/Ilmestys is a universe of its own and though it's only two fanfictions (FOR NOW) there are other works that key in the same universe.
Miniseries wise, Tyranny!MC reading Vigil is just a sheer ride of angst lol. Books exist to be read by other MCs with all too relatable conflicts of interest.
Absconder!MC is :((
She's a sad character, warped up in the idea of bringing back her people because she feels that she failed them. But she knows that the path to accomplishing her mission is a precarious one, the ramifications are too great that she may be forgotten.
Or worse, she'll cease. But it's a risk she's taking.
in her tunnel-vision, she will fail to agree with Dainsleif's views even if she sees and understands it. A guilty conscience seeking to amend mistakes in their way is difficult to sway.
Being aware of Astrolabe!MC's tale shakes her to the core because there are deities that have been forgotten in time's lapses. She, a human (well.. 'was'?) will be forgotten much, much easier.
On a lighter note, YES AEEEE FLEUR!MC CROSSING WITH VIOLET!MC AH THAT'S LOVELY.
Just Fleur!MC reading the book and giggling like shuck, much to a certain group's staring lolol
Maybe it's happening at dance practice or something and they can't properly focus because WHY IS FLEUR!MC TOO SMILEY? Is it really just because of a book?
Then she'll stop and just- "wait, I get to see 4 handsome men on a daily basis, should i be complaining??"
