Oops


Three guesses whose greener pastures turned out to be made of lies and the same issues every single online community has?

Long story short, same story as my previous bulletin, except this time, I have accepted and faced that for the past 12 months, I was completely and utterly burnt out on college and in a pretty bad place mentally. Very unhealthy, truly tragic, worst god damned year of my life. It led to me abandoning most of my other hobbies and hyperfocusing on SnK when I should've seen from the start that it was a sinking ship with a trash fandom. The good news is that last week I got really into Promare, left the toxic SnK fandom after the personal drama got too tiresome, and relieved a lot of tension from my IRL, and that has helped me tremendously with getting back into a healthy rhythm. 

It also means I've been thinking about my OCs a lot again, and wow, do I have lots and lots of thoughts about them! As of now, consider all of their profiles outdated and in need of revision. Hopefully, I can get back into the flow and pick up this hobby again. I'm writing this at 4:20 am so I can't think of much to show for… but! I believe my worldbuilding and character crafting have both tremendously improved and it may reflect not only in the way I write my characters, but also in my choices on which information to showcase and which to keep to myself.

Speaking of creativity. Some of you may remember that I once wanted to be a writer, and in a funny turn of events, I did! I started writing SnK fanfic to cope with canon being terrible and wrote about 150k words in the past year. I've got a very long way to go and all of my writings are both a way to express things that are deeply personal and self-indulgent and a way to slowly learn how to write, but if you're curious about how my writing style looks after I kept promising to one day write something and post it here, you can always check out my main fic. It ain't no original story but it certainly was fun.

I think that's all? I need sleep


Also, I will be looking at communications the next few days, if we have outstanding PMs, I'll get to you soon.

So… How's everything been around here?

Hello,

I just wanted to say that I'm on here a tiny bit more now and brought a friend along as well. :)
And Ulf the monster man I got a long time ago says "Hi" as well and has got some things going on for him but has no page yet.
SnK = What fandom?

Thanks so much, Ni! I'm slowly easing back into it (as you can see from the time it takes me to reply) but hopefully, I'll be back in full swing soon! ❤️
