who called him UGLY? your baby Malleus is beautiful and I love him so very much. He is just a little guy! A single brain cell bounces around in his little head and when it hits a corner he has one (1) single thought!

lilia agrees he is a dapper little lad.

Diasomnia is absent from the replies because they're with Lilia trying to figure out what went wrong

"it's all in your head" correct! unfortunately I am also in there

"I love writing so much," I say as I regret every life choice that has lead me to this point.

Happy New Year! 🎊🎈

The ulterior motive is that he wants friends, but he thinks he’s a bad person for wanting to be friends sobb;;

My commissions are still open if anyone is interested! Happy new years!! Let’s all keep enjoying this game together for many more years to come! ^^

The Living Library (TWST fanmade location)

The Living Library, a massive collection of books, scrolls, magazines, and even music or movie disks located in Nightbloom City. Built in a massive circular structure around Twining Fates, its collection is continuously growing due to the librarians that work in it and donations from Nightbloom residents– though no matter how many texts it collects, it never seems to run out of space. It's rumored that it's tradition for new librarians and library assistants, student or otherwise, to obtain a copy of their favorite book and offer it to the Living Library, though no current or former librarian will confirm or deny it.

The library's outer structure may be a ring, but the inner structure changes routinely. There's a reason it's called the Living Library, and that reason is that it's, well, alive. The library has its own awareness and consciousness, and it often re-arranges its own structure. The whole thing is rather maze-like, and very little remains consistent. The only things that stay completely fixed are the location of its two main entrances, and the separation of the library into two distinct rings. The outer ring is completely accessible to the public– though due to the aforementioned maze-like tendencies, children aren't allowed inside unattended, as it's far too easy to get lost. The inner ring, however, is only accessible to students and staff of Twined Fates Academy.

Typically, this is because the inner ring houses older and more valuable texts– but it's also filled with more statue guardians, and it's even easier to get lost among the shelves. For this reason, first-year students aren't allowed in the inner ring without a librarian or library assistant.

While most things in the library change constantly, there are some consistencies.

-The children's section is always located in the outer ring. Where in the ring changes, but it's always in the outer ring

-More fragile, rarer texts remain mostly contained to the inner ring

-There are two sections for textbooks, one in the outer ring and one in the inner ring, and they're connected by a doorway

-The librarian's desk is usually near the main entrance

-The library groups things by genre, though where each section is moves around

The library has various statues scattered throughout its shelves, which it's capable of seeing through. The statue guardians are animated, and while they lie at rest most of the time, they come to life to defend against intruders or other threats. This doesn't happen often, luckily, and the more likely scenario to see one wandering around is because someone is lost.

Nearly everyone in Nightbloom City has a library card to check out books with, and students of Twining Fates have additional Keys that allow them access to the inner ring. A Librarian, Student Librarian, or Library Assistant have special keys that allow for access to certain locked rooms within the library itself.

A character summons a 200 year old dragon to deal with what essentially amounts to high school bullies.

Objectively speaking, the fanfic I’m reading is not good, but my goodness, it’s made my afternoon that much more enjoyable

"what's it like being a writer" um every night I'm tormented by dreams of a fake world with dragons and wizards. so like, I might be crazy idk.

why must a fic be "finished" is it not enough for it to be lovingly daydreamed over a period of 6 months.

— OC Presentation

Johannes Harsenherz, better known as "Lady J", is a handsome drag queen who loves stealing the spotlight with his dazzling brilliance. Many might call him arrogant —and perhaps he is — but his piercing green eyes easily divert the conversation or land a sharp retort. It’s surprising how someone so haughty manages to maintain a loyal following at a small bar...

Fun Facts:

As mentioned earlier, Johannes performs in small drag shows, though he used to work as a substitute teacher at NRC. He left his teaching career to pursue his beloved dream.

Despite quitting teaching, he still keeps in touch with some people from NRC, especially Divus and Mozus.

His drag name is a silly joke referencing Jessica Rabbit (the character he’s based on).

His unique magic also pays homage to the movie Who Framed Roger Rabbit, and perhaps there’s more to that story...

Listen I'm not saying I believe the "Crowley is Raverne/Levan" theory, I'm saying that if it is true, Lilia is going to be PISSED.

the froshies get so close they start to unlock sebek's lore

Kaz Brekker would do this, knowing full well he has someone who can get him out of the elevator on speed dial. He just wants to see what happens.

Not following fandoms but having people whom I follow occasionally falling into them, I've noticed a statistically unusually high rates of headcanoning a specific character as trans, in a "I know it's not canon but fuck you I'm having fun" sort of way. And also in horny ways.

So either there is significant overlap between people who are attracted to trans men and people who are attracted to disabled men, and I'd never noticed that before

or there's a significant amount of trans men who'll see a male character depicted as physically frail and vulnerable but mentally unhinged and far too smart to be stopped, and go "oh shit that's me"

"Aro/Ace person gets given a love potion" story but instead of them being immune or whatever, it DOES work, and they realize IMMEDIATELY that they've been fed a love potion because this feeling is so wrong and foreign but everyone keeps laughing off the idea of it being a love potion because "they were probably just a late bloomer" or "no, you just finally found the right person!" and it's just a horror story about how no one believes them even though they know, they KNOW this isn't right and they can't stand it.

Writing Tips

Punctuating Dialogue

✧

➸ “This is a sentence.”

➸ “This is a sentence with a dialogue tag at the end,” she said.

➸ “This,” he said, “is a sentence split by a dialogue tag.”

➸ “This is a sentence,” she said. “This is a new sentence. New sentences are capitalized.”

➸ “This is a sentence followed by an action.” He stood. “They are separate sentences because he did not speak by standing.”

➸ She said, “Use a comma to introduce dialogue. The quote is capitalized when the dialogue tag is at the beginning.”

➸ “Use a comma when a dialogue tag follows a quote,” he said.

“Unless there is a question mark?” she asked.

“Or an exclamation point!” he answered. “The dialogue tag still remains uncapitalized because it’s not truly the end of the sentence.”

➸ “Periods and commas should be inside closing quotations.”

➸ “Hey!” she shouted, “Sometimes exclamation points are inside quotations.”

However, if it’s not dialogue exclamation points can also be “outside”!

➸ “Does this apply to question marks too?” he asked.

If it’s not dialogue, can question marks be “outside”? (Yes, they can.)

➸ “This applies to dashes too. Inside quotations dashes typically express—“

“Interruption” — but there are situations dashes may be outside.

➸ “You’ll notice that exclamation marks, question marks, and dashes do not have a comma after them. Ellipses don’t have a comma after them either…” she said.

➸ “My teacher said, ‘Use single quotation marks when quoting within dialogue.’”

➸ “Use paragraph breaks to indicate a new speaker,” he said.

“The readers will know it’s someone else speaking.”

➸ “If it’s the same speaker but different paragraph, keep the closing quotation off.

“This shows it’s the same character continuing to speak.”

My average writing experience:

"Alright I think I'm almost done actually-"

*Google doc grows second health bar and a choir starts singing in latin*

I wanna write this as a fic. Immediately. My notes app is actively open rn

Maybe this is completely obvious and this is just me calling the sky blue BUT!!! If it is I hardly see it talked about- the ghost camera!

Yknow, where it’s said that whatever we take a picture of, its memory and soul are trapped in it as a Memory, and those memories can move and play like videos or can pop out and take on a physical form?

It’s long been correlated that the cards we draw in the mirror are pictures Yuu takes with the camera, BUT?! When we’re scrolling through cards to use in battles, like in stories or events or gauntlets or exams… is that Yuu going through their camera roll and summoning the Memories that would be most helpful alongside them and their friends in battle??? Are they summoning the captured photo souls of their friends out to help beat the snot out of folks?

I can’t get this image out of my head, if this is true and if Yuu were even just a hair more vindictive they’d never be bullied around at NRC again 😂😭

WHY YOU SHOULD WRITE HORRIBLY:

1. You’ll never write anything if you don’t

So writers joke a lot about "drinking the tears of our readers", but I want to be so honest with you when I tell you that making you cry isn't our real goal. Making you feel is.

Kicking your feet? Giggling? Can't stop smiling? And yes, crying? Feeling anything, everything. That's our goal. That means we did The Job.

writing is hard but coming up with a cunty title and catchy summary will slay even god's strongest soldier

In a last ditch attempt to save your people, you offer your life to an ancient god of war and blood. Unfortunately, your translation of the ancient text was a bit off. You're married now.

I need you to understand that when I say "comments are appreciated!" I mean that I will reply to every one of them. I mean that an email with an ao3 notification has a higher priority than a message from my mother. I mean that I will have entire discussions in the comment section if you're up for it. Message me on tumblr and I will have the same discussions on an even more unhinged level. I will dissect entire personalities and ships and fictional political structures and worldbuilding with you. I will become your new best friend. You already ARE my new best friend. At the last battle, I would raise Anduril and say "For my ao3 readers" while a single tears rolls down my cheek, and dive into the fray. I would upload from beyond the grave if someone asked about the next chapter
