23. What’s a story you’d love to write but haven’t even started yet? This is an arc and not a story, but everything to do with pjo!Fyroah. There is nothing more I can write about him without majorly spoiling half the PJO au, and I'm not ready to do that yet. Insane. Cruel. Evil. I want to write about Fyroah.

30. Have you noticed your style change over time? A little! I like to think I've gotten better at cutting the fat from my prose, especially in the past year. There's also a phenomenon that used to happen a lot more, where I'd get so excited about a concept I would cram it in without regard for how well it actually fit in the work. I still do that when I draft, but I'm much better about killing my darlings now.

You know what, I feel like being mean today. Can we stop whitewashing Hax?

I've been seeing a startling amount of it come up in artworks in the recent months, and honestly, that isn't cool at all. That guy is Asian. He is from Hong Kong. It is whitewashing to depict him with a skin tone as pale as or paler than your designs for white runners. It is whitewashing if you choose to depict him with pale eyes. It is especially whitewashing to draw him like that without any other ethnically accurate traits.

Learn to draw people of color. I'm begging you. Or at least don't draw an openly Asian man with a skintone three shades off pure white.

💚 oh little galaxies, what do you dream of? 💙
