Sometimes I Really Wish That I Wrote Instagram Poetry Instead Because I Would Feel Much Less Ashamed

IM YELLING

Shizune and ASUMA have GOT to be another fav rarepair

Same with Tenten and Sai 😭 YOUR FICS GOT ME

Tenten and Sai are literally a woman who just wants to be heard and a man who wants to listen. I think they’d be so cute. 

Asuma and Shizune would be high-strung and laidback in compatible ways. I could see them being disappointed and disillusioned together on the road with a spiralling Tsunade in the background. I literally lay in bed listening to “Chemtrails over the Country Club” and “You’re in the wind, I’m in the water/Nobody’s son, nobody’s daughter” and “Washing my hair, doing the laundry/Late-night TV, I want you only” are so them lol.

Wow, I am so sorry for the longwinded response. I am but an amalgamation of sad girl memes, Lana Del Rey and Ethel Cain songs, and literary references. You are too kind to me! Thank you for reading my stories! 

your brain is soo wrinkly and galactic, thank you for indulging and giving these recs much thought! I've finished the tv adaptation of normal people and while i have only read lines from np, i did pick up another book of hers with satoshoko solely in mind, titled: "beautiful world, where are you". right after binge-reading your works, too, so i somehow feel validated she made it to the list. i have read ms. bby_rabbit's work and loved it! I always enjoy when fics explore the dynamics of satoshoko + the students (esp kugitafushi), and hs,dj's megumi was a delight. sadly, I'm now unfamiliar w the remainder of your list, but rest assured i am capital R - running - straight to storygraph after this.

re: weird relationship with one's own works, i get a version of that feeling too, as i am my own harshest critic. however, i want to share an anecdote with you that i hope you'll enjoy. one time i was just watching this on youtube when i, completely out of nowhere, imagined seiya probably having done it as well. i don't know how i got here lol. i was never one to think about ship babies and i'd be embarrassed about stsk popping up in my head, if it weren't for the fact that it was an added layer, which truly made the video more comedic.

it goes to show you've written characters so memorable and endearing in that they manage to sneakily occupy ppl's minds and brighten days. thanks again for answering.

p.s. did u ever watch the hidden inventory arc get animated? it was so cute

Dunno about wrinkly and galactic, but my brain is certainly in my skull. I don’t mind talking about books, reading is one of my favorite things to do. I’ve never seen the television adaptation, but I’ve read both of those books. I think Normal People is the better novel of the two. I love bby_rabbit, she’s my writer bestie, and I’ll be sure to pass your sweet words on! 

Wow, that video made my day! I loved how the little baby was very careful not to disturb their mom but fully slapped their dad across the face. It’ s so flattering to hear that you thought of little Seiya, and that you don’t cringe when my stories come back to you unexpected. Day made, self-esteem boosted! 

I have not yet seen the second season. I’m annoyed with where the manga has been going, and I don’t want to see Yuji’s torture well animated, but the clips I have seen are very cute! 

Oh... Wow... IDK why it took me so long to find your Tumblr. ANYWAY I now have the power to bother you about how your writing made me go insane with giddiness and unholy thoughts. I even pulled a friend of mine into the abyss by showing her the NanaSho works you wrote. It has consumed her and I'm not sorry about it. Well that's it, just wanted to say reading your stuff makes me froth at the mouth and want to rip pillows in half. That's all. Have a good day. Goodbye.

OMG, hey, hello, I love your SatoShoko art! You’re one of my fave artists. The GetoHime one made my day, nay, my year! It was a pleasure to reblog it and I’ll be sure to shout it out whenever I update that GetoHime story I’m working on. Thank you for the dopamine hit and inspiration. 

Not giddy and unholy thoughts! Frothing at the mouth! I am honored! 

I actually love getting to shout out other writers here. I did not write the NanaSho on my profile. For the curious, a reader named van_del wrote “tell me your heart’s on fire” as a gift, and my lovely and talented writer friend bby_rabbit wrote “why am I awake at 2:00 a.m.,” which is a rewrite of her previous story, “no panties kind of weather.” I am thrilled to hear that you and your friend have enjoyed those stories. I’ve been lucky to receive gifts on ao3, and there are lots of other stories in my bookmarks worthy of love, so it’s great to hear that people actually look at them. 

Thanks for the sweet comment and take care!

The number of stories that this painting has inspired in me is not funny lol

hi! i really love your writing and especially your “consider the shark jumped” series! do you have any plans on ever continuing it or writing any new satoshoko works? sorry if this sounds pressuring or anything, it’s really not my intention to be 😭😭🙏 i’m just a big fan or your writing!

Hi! Thank you so much for your sweet words! I actually do really like that series and I have some ideas about how to expand it. Toji as DILF Frank Gallagher is pretty funny to me, and it'd be nice to write about him more. I've thought about writing Tsumiki and Kamo, and Megumi being a hater. There's a SatoSho with their kids in this universe sort of drafted, but I have no idea when I'll deliver. I have some ideas for SatoSho, but nothing in the works currently. Life has been crazy demoralizing recently so it has been hard to be creative. I’ve got two long fics I’m focusing on, but they are in Naruto and Bleach, the two series we can blame for JJK but I understand if you aren’t interested in either.

I don’t feel like you put any pressure on me at all! I wouldn’t leave comments on or have a Tumblr with an open inbox if I didn’t want to interact with readers. Thank you so much for leaving such a nice comment!

Fingers crossed that I will be creative again! Leaving one of my favorite tweets below because it sums up my mood for the last six months!

I fixed Lilies (changed the names + corrected Ijichi’s name (lol) + the worst typos + cleaned it up so that the reading experience has much improved) and now I feel a lot better about it. It's no longer my shame lol.

Lilies - SatoSho, E. No archive warnings apply, but please mind the other tags.

I have a lot of mixed feelings about this story because I wrote it right when I got into JJK so a lot of it reflects my own misunderstandings about canon. I got some comments on it that made me feel misunderstood and hurt my feelings. Life happened to me and I feel like I became a lot more disillusioned and cynical, so it was hard to remember the person who wrote that story.

It has its faults (and some of the typos, my god), but when I went to edit it, and saw all the nice things people said about this story, and how it led to people reading my other stories, I ended up appreciating it a whole lot more. I usually feel like I'm talking into the void, but that's what being a fic writer is all about. There's a lot I could say, but I think thank you sums it all up.
