ppl say morning voices are hot but like ... who wakes up in the morning and think 'ah, i wanna talk'???11
if you're struggling to connect paragraphs, or if something doesn't feel right, or there is something that is bothering you about the way the story doesn't seem to be aligning - READ IT OUT LOUD!!!
read the entire paragraph. over and over. hell, read the whole draft, from the first page to the page you're stuck at. until you figure out what you want to happen in the paragraph, how you want it to happen, and how to word it. honest to god, it has been such a helpful little thing for me.
it also is extremely useful if the narrator has an accent or an eccentric way of speaking.
how am i supposed to interview an airborne disease that is invisble to the naked eye and cant talk whatsoever!!!?
The fact that ethnic features can even be considered “trendy” is like a direct result of racism / exoticism, like.........woc are dehumanized for their “exotic” features but white women spend $$$ on cosmetics procedures to emulate what we are naturally born with and receive all the praise from the same people that dehumanize us...
i have found another relationship to appreciate
these two big bros
i love love love to imagine how these two started to interact cuz theyre the older brothers in their family and toman. draken, chifuyu, baji, and kazutora all have the "only child syndrome", mikey is the middle child mess, we dont know anything about mucho's life and i think practically everyone ignores him and sanzu. so among the mess they found themselves in, these two created a tight bond no one ever expected.
their contrasting nature works: mitsuya with his polite way of talking, respects everyone unless they give him a reason not to, and generally is a friendly nice guy while smiley has a rough way with his language, disregards anyone who is not worth his time and once you peel back the layers is just as amiable as his twin. yet they share that responsibility of being the big brother, of taking care of their younger sibling/s. they get each other.
i imagine the day the kawata twins were introduced, nahoya and mitsuya locked eyes and nodded cuz they have that "older sibling" vibe to them that only the other one gets. they just went "i feel u, bro" and left mikey and draken to wonder wtf is going on.
they can also telepathically communicate!!! whenever one of them is having a rough time, the other acknowledges it and tries to destress them. nahoya catches mitsuya struggling to be strong and offers him a handkerchief, tells him its okay to cry it out. one day, mitsuya happens to stumble upon one of the kawata twins arguments and gently intervenes, explaining to souya that his brother just wants him to be safe and telling nahoya that he doesnt have to raise his voice and could also explain things in a soft voice because souya is not a three year old anymore.
i also would like to imagine these two eat together and just talk about the hilarious stuff their siblings have done or advice each other on how to get them to sleep quicker or what to give them for their birthdays.
"luna tricked mana into letting her cut her hair yesterday."
"seriously? man, shes got bal-"
"nahoya."
"confidence. shes got the confidence that every girl should have."
mitsuya sighs. "gods know what mom wouldve done to me if she saw half of mana's hair gone."
they just get along with each other and its a mystery to others. their bond became so close that they swore to take care of each others siblings in case something happens to them.
naturally, them being close also meant souya and luna and mana see each other very often. they get together every once in a while and although souya is older than luna and mana, the three of them are a pact and already have inside jokes. oh and hakkai's there too.
you ever think something like this happened in aot
person A: *dies by slipping on a banana peel*
person B: damn, didnt even get eaten by a titan. weakass.
the only time i wanna read the words 'you gave birth' is in fanfics
yall are rlly gonna make me cry with these dad!gojo and little megumi fanarts
okay, the whole “silly writers, siblings aren’t supposed to actually like each other” thing was always annoying, but it has now morphed into actual real-life people telling me and my actual real-life sibling that our relationship is weird and creepy because we enjoy spending time together and aren’t constantly at each other’s throats, so if we could all collectively stop pretending that siblings are only capable of being cruel to each other, and that any depiction otherwise is unrealistic, that would be great, thanks
idk what this acc is for anymore. student/part-time ponderer/part-time singer. 19.
