curry under the night sky

[Toilet Bound Hanako-kun]

"Hanako-san, Hanako-san, are you in there?"

A few minutes passed, and there was no sign of any supernatural happenings occurring. Emma sighed, turning to look at Yashiro, who was hiding behind her back in fear and uncertainty. "Nene-chan, I don't think the rumor's real. It could just be a prank or fake news for all we know," she told her afraid best friend, her eyebrows furrowed.

"Who're you calling fake news, hm?" A whisper of a boy's voice breathed into Emma's ear, causing her to squeak in surprise and quickly turn around.

There stood-rather, floated-a boy wearing a gakuran and matching hat, as well as a mischievous smirk. His amber eyes practically stared into her soul.

"Holy shit. A ghost."

"Hey now, pretty girls shouldn't swear!"

"Holy shit. A sexist ghost."

Minami Shimada and Her Boyfriend Akihisa Yoshii

[Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu]

A collection of one-shots and drabbles of the lovely couple, Minami and Akihisa. Sometimes they're in another universe, sometimes the roles could be reversed.

♡ Operation: Obtain Shino-kun's Heart! ♡

[Kiss Him Not Me]

You've always liked Shinomiya.

Ever since you saw him trip over his own feet during your trip to the high school for applications.

You honestly swooned.

What a hunk!

After that encounter, you worked hard in trying to match up your schedule with his, searching for his name and trying to convince the board to land you in the same section he was in. You worked hard for the student council, even if you were just a first year student, just to see him during meetings. You worked hard to be part of the health committee, also just to see him.

Despite this, you also worked hard for your own life goals and interests, which aren't being with Shinomiya. You were (L/n) (Y/n), always the hardworker.

In love and in life.

You were determined to steal Shinomiya's heart, using only your charm, wit, personality and your own heart.

You did not expect him falling for someone else.

Hello!

This blog will be used for the fics I write and fandom stuff in general. Might become something more, but for now, it’s for updates on fics and just fic-related stuff. I might end up taking requests for different fandoms, so I might type up a request list soon.

If you’ve stumbled upon this blog, hooray! Thank you for taking the time to look at this currently empty blog! :) (No sarcasm fr) I hope you have a pleasant day today!

isn’t this just Extraordinary You?

You swear like half of your class seems to be characters in a below average, cliche plagued, high school romance novel and watching it from the perspective of a normal person just trying to get through school is much more painful than reading it from the outside in a book

2cm apart

"And here's another thing—" she cut herself off, her eyes widening, as she realized she and Hanako were just two centimeters away from each other, close enough to feel their breaths if Hanako was still alive that is. Her cheeks grew a very dark red, and her lips parted, as she stared into the deep pools of amber that were Hanako's eyes. She could never get over how beautiful and entrancing they were. She could just stare at them for days upon end.

Some reader, lightly commenting on my fic: hey i liked this.

me, me eyes enormous: you COMMENT me? you comment on my fic, like the story? oh! oh! love for reader! love for reader for One Thousand Years!!!!

On Writing for Yourself and Not for Notes

AKA How to Enjoy Writing for the Sake of it

Get off social media! I know it’s tempting to blabber on about a WIP to get those hella cool notes, but doing so only reinforces that writing’s only fun if it gets you attention. We all need that boost now and again, but too much of it will whittle away your self-reliance. Close your laptop, leave your phone in a different room, and sit down with a notebook if possible and if you need to. You’ll get to know what enthralls you personally about your story.

Don’t write for an audience for now. Tumblr likes to do this thing where it says “blah blah blah X is problematic in media” and while it’s well-intentioned, internalizing too much of this can make you feel like you’re trying to write through a maze and constantly failing at it. Forget about your audience–you can flag and catch problematic stuff in edits after tossing it to the betas.

Remember what made thirteen-year-old you lose their mind? Yeah, write that. Once you’ve let go of writing for an audience, you won’t worry about being “cringey” anymore, and that’s when things start to get real good and real fun. You don’t have to show your writing to anyone, or even tell them you wrote it, so just go buckwild! Trust me, it’s so liberating.

Your inner critic is useful–but not now. Shut that bitch up! Your job when drafting is to make something. If you did that, you win, so your critic’s opinion is worth squat here. However, if you try to fight her {I always envision mine as some bitchy middle-aged woman lol} she’s just gonna get louder. So tell yourself you can be as critical of your writing as you want during edits. You’re not working for perfect, or even good right now. You’re working for existing.

Remember that this is a process. Companies like tumblr are investing a BUNCH of cash into getting you to stay glued to their platforms, and if you’re a creator this might manifest in your feeling like you need to live your creative life online. You don’t. But retraining your brain isn’t easy. Remember that divorcing yourself from the validation of online noise takes work and time and a lot of discomfort and redirecting, especially for folks like me who thrive on routine. And don’t discipline. Redirect. Negativity has no right to be in your creative space ♥️
