First of all: congratulations on finishing your internship and your diploma!! That’s such a huge accomplishment and you should genuinely feel proud of yourself. :)

I hope the internship went well overall and now you can finally breathe a little after such a stressful period. And engineering studies are no joke either, so I’m sure you’ll absolutely show the job world what you’re capable of once things fall into place. <3

Also: buying your first game with your own money is such a special feeling!! 🥹 And I’m assuming you mean Resident Evil 3? I hope you’re having fun with it and also with finally catching up on HSR and Genshin. Having games you can properly immerse yourself in again after a stressful phase feels sooo rewarding.

As for the unemployment/job search era: I know it can feel scary and frustrating, especially when you suddenly have to step outside your comfort zone more. But I think a lot of people feel this way at first. (I can relate.) You’ve already managed difficult studies and an internship, so try not to underestimate yourself. :)

And CEO Phainon… listen. The idea of Phainon spoiling someone financially because he’s quietly obsessed with taking care of them does feel soo fitting. :D Especially because canonically he already likes money and actively thinks about earning more of it, so putting him in a business environment honestly works very naturally for a modern AU.

That said, I’m currently still working on other drafts, so I can’t promise anything specific right now unless my brain suddenly gets possessed by the idea. (Entirely possible with Phainon. We know how this goes by now. 😅)

Lovely hearing from you again and good luck with everything moving forward! <3

The document for act one contains eight tabs: cover, lore, magic styles, profile, relationships, story, world, history.

COVER is literally just an image I have that makes the document look pretty. That's it. It's the same image seen in the prologue but red.

LORE is all the lore parts for act one posted and linked on the Empyrean masterlist.

MAGIC STYLES for act one are also shared and linked on the Empyrean masterlist.

PROFILES for act one are shared and linked on the Empyrean masterlist. The only thing not shared publicly from this part are a page count I have for each character, just for me to keep track of who appears in what chapter and for how long.

RELATIONSHIPS for act one are shared and linked on the Empyrean masterlist. There's actually a good chunk I didn't share here. What I shared publicly were the opinions a character has of others before the events of the story, but I don't think I'll share the portion of the notes that goes over a character's opinions during events of the story.

STORY. These are obviously the chapters posted. The only thing not shared here is my own personal notes on page counts, summaries to post, and private summaries for each page. This is just mainly for me to keep track of scenes and plot.

WORLD. Shared and linked on the Empyrean masterlist under "map" and "trivia." Most of the information here has been shared except a small agriculture section, an architecture section, an education section, fighting styles, and a holidays section (but the answers about holidays from act one are floating around somewhere on my page since someone asked once).

HISTORY. Shared and linked on the Empyrean masterlist. The only difference is, I removed a date or two that would contain spoilers. Some of the dates also have much longer information in my notes, but I decided to only share a sentence or two on dates instead of whole paragraphs in the post.

And as for the anime: I have not heard of this one before, but I looked it up and it sounds so good? Dark fantasy, ooh! And the premise with the city in the skies and the “hell” is so intriguing. I now added it to my list, so thank you for the rec! :)

And please tell me more about the character who reminds you of Phainon. I need to know more. This makes me excited.

And the VA overlap is so funny (I don’t know Phainon’s Japanese voice actor since I play in English, but still. This is a sign!!) From what I read I’m definitely intrigued by the main character too, he and his story sound interesting. :)

And congrats on Yao Guang!! I haven’t decided whether I want to pull her or not (her design really reminds me of Phainon, but I know I’m not the first one to mention that).

My current plan is to pull Cerydra (if I manage to get her) for Phainon/Anaxa and then Ashveil in 4.1, probably. Otherwise I’m undecided since I yet have to play Planarcadia. Wasn’t too excited originally, but slowly my excitement grows. Yay. :) Feel free to share more thoughts on your progress, of course. :)

And thank you so much for your kind words (and the yap session). You’re always such a lovely presence in my inbox. And thanks for saying I’m your favorite Phainon writer (*blushes*). :)

Love you too! 🫶
