Honestly had to be reminded of this today. This was one of the main reasons why I kept all of my works to myself, 'cuz I knew I'd reach a point where I'd need reassurance from my audience, but I didn't want to be perceived as "needy" or "dramatic". So I'm gonna do my best to put myself out there and ask for reassurance when I need it.
it’s ok to want positive feedback and compliments on your writing.
it doesn’t make you a bad person. everyone needs a little reassurance sometimes.
“Your art isn’t valued by the number of notes you get” okay but. If you spent 6 hours baking a cake for a party, but no one at the party eats your cake, it’s still disappointing.
“One of the most solid pieces of writing advice I know is in fact intended for dancers – you can find it in the choreographer Martha Graham’s biography. But it relaxes me in front of my laptop the same way I imagine it might induce a young dancer to breathe deeply and wiggle their fingers and toes. Graham writes: ‘There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all of time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and it will be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is nor how valuable nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open.’”

This sentiment ALSO applies this blog.
Just thought to mention it before posting for real; think of it as an extension/reiteration of my navigation post.
rb if your blog is not at all a safe space for these red flags
(image: dreamsexual, zoophilia, p3d0philia/maps, alt map)
FYI the red-yellow flag is AAM aka adult-attracted minors. Same effects as a MAP.
Okay, now I have to clarify bullshit.
YES, I am aware Dreamsexual COULD be a troll, although some people in the Dream community took it into serious matters
And no, this isn't fucking reblog bait. Shut the fuck up. I was just trying to be appreciative considering this is my post with the most attention.
Had to put it in bold considering all you fucks will NOT shut the fuck up.
I'm so fucking pissed at some people, and all I'm saying is any of the identities/flags shown above should NOT be seen on this blog.
Calm the fuck down, each of you. I'm close to having an outburst of rage once more, and taking this post down.
Okay, so, on the topic of Blake and Bestie's relationship—I stumbled across a song that reminded me of your interpretation of their dynamic!
At first, I didn't get it, but after listening to Florence's "Rabbit Heart," my brain totally flipped out—like:
"LEAVE ME ALONE!!"
"AUGGGHH!!" ((( ;゚Д゚)))
Oh he’s so hot and so, so fucking doomed
He finally has his own post after dropping cameo appearances for so long. All that’s left is Brachium 👀
Now I also wanna add a headcanon I touched on briefly about Bestie in another post, but a lil more in depth—
I believe Bestie is fully aware of the kind of person Blake really is. They’ve always been observant unbeknownst to most, especially Blake (Ironic for a seer lol). He believes them to be thoughtful, but not as keen as they really are due to how easily they agree to things. They became even more skeptical and analytical of his actions/behavior when he came back into their life. I mean who wouldn’t be with the way he did..
Blake thinks he knows them like the back of his hand, and to an extent he does, but in reality it’s the other way around. They’re not gullible, now so easily manipulated as others think they are, they simply just play along because well they still care deeply about him and whatever relationship they still have.. Bestie is the deceiver. (Because I love plot twists within plot twists)
And why I think they decided to ask him how he felt about them that night— They still choose to be with Blake despite him laying out all his red flags because they know what’s inevitably gonna happen, they already know their fate, so they give him what he wants against their better judgment..
Sometimes, the universe blesses you with the return of one of your favs. Other times, it reminds you how gay you are by throwing a pretty lady your way, as a treat---a good night kiss of sorts.
I fully consider this time, at 6:10 pm on a random Monday in May, one of the few times the universe has fucked me in the most loving way possible.
(Honestly, I should say, "It's about damn time.", but I'm afraid I'll get the most ass-tearing beating of my life for not being grateful.)
Thank you, universe, thank you, sm
( ̄ー ̄)b
Honestly, I might write a blurb just around her. Bc GOOD GOOGLY MOOGLY
Thank you, sm Cheese, for everything you do!!

do u have any Yandere Paku thoughts to spare ^_^
i feel she’s very tame and nice as a yan and would only take you away if she felt you were in danger somehow, or maybe if you found out her true identity and reacted badly to it.
she’s sweet, if a little stern at times. she particularly enjoys spending her money on or stealing jewellery and expensive clothes that she wants to see you in. she’ll insist on dressing you up for candlelit dinners in the lavish apartment she keeps you in.
if she’s had a stressful day she’ll come back to you on the couch and put an arm over your shoulder, gently tugging you to rest you head on her shoulder while her other hand slowly massages your waist or thigh. she won’t push you into anything if you aren’t interested, at least not past a kiss or some general closeness.
sometimes she has nightmares of her childhood, but she never manages to wake you up during them. you being beside her when she snaps out of it really does make her feel a lot better, and in those moments she’ll softly sigh and gently pull you in closer to her.
her possessive side might show a little if you happen to meet other members of the phantom troupe. she has to refrain from telling uvogin to keep his paws to himself and feitan to stop staring at you like that.
she’s probably the best yandere to have in the phantom troupe, and the difference between how she’d treat a darling and say, feitan would, is astronomical.

Can someone please tell me the general summary of Starlight x Avior's story??? Im making an illustration and too sick from Gerodi's latest vid to rub two synapses together.
My mind has been tenderized by organic chemistry. So uh...
Something something [quippy vampire joke] something something doomed yuri...something something immortal x mortal.
