You're Right. You're Absolutely Right. I Keep Trying To Tell Myself This, But I Keep Going Back To Feeling

You're right. You're absolutely right. I keep trying to tell myself this, but I keep going back to feeling like what I do is some kind of performance.

It's hard for me to change mindsets, and it takes a long while, but I'm determined to be a creator that loves doing what they do.

for the love of god, write all the self-indulgent scenes you want.  be utterly  shameless about including every last fantasy.  i know everyone likes to share quotes and quips about how miserably hard writing is, but please please try thinking of it as a joyful act where you get to be a messy human who makes art rather than some pain filled quest for icy perfection.

RIGHT!? TODAY WAS BRUTAL! And Sun... oh, Sun, he needs help. He needs help FAST.

I hope he doesn't try to keep up the façade anymore, acting like he's okay when the mask has been slipping.

(SaMS spoilers below)

The things with the barrels isn't just OCD; it's been Sun's coping method from all the pain he's going through. The problem is that those are the same barrels he killed Bloodmoon with. How can you use a source of your own guilt to distract yourself? You can't!

The barrels were not a joke through the past few episode, they were foreshadowing!

AND BY GOD I WISH I COULD HUG SUN RIGHT NOW.

TSAMS WHY?!??!?!

I MEAN ITS GOOD BUT AT THE SAME TIME WHY?!?!?!

MY FREAKING HEART-

If you receive this, you make somebody happy! Go on anon and send this to ten of your followers who make you happy or somebody you think needs cheering up. If you get one back, even better! <333

Well, thank you! I appreciate this, but... I'm really shy about these kinds of things - social anxiety shy. Someday, though, it will happen.

Okay, VEEERY moot point, but Monty trying to act like the reasonable one and trying to get Foxy to listen to them by repeating his name WHILE SMACKING HIM IN THE FACE (with a punch sound effect EVERY TIME!) back and forth is freaking hilarious to me. The juxtaposition is (chef's kiss) perfect.

At least Foxy didn't seem to feel it, if he did it just made him angrier. Him ripping Monty a new one was so great.

Sooo... how do you guys like my new avatar? It's not exactly dark and mystical like I'd like it to be, but then again neither was my old avatar. I honestly had no inspiration with that one and decided I just wanted something pretty. XD

Credit where credit is due, this is from a game coming out next year called "Little Kitty, Big City". The trailer for the game itself is hilariously adorable, and there's a free demo on Steam and I just... get it. Get it. Get the demo. Seriously. Go get it. Now. I SAID NOW.

Also, no I'm not sponsored by the developers or anything (do people even get sponsored on Tumbr?). I just found someone playing this game and I'm in love with the demo. I've played it about four times over the past three days, and I played all the way through each time.

I can bring up a link to the video, but I'd like to ask the creator of the video if she's okay with it before I do anything. Call me overly cautious, but... yeah, I'm overly cautious with everything. XD

That's nothing but selfish immediate gratification. Even worse is that it's an insult to the writer. Way to be grateful for the art they chose to share with you FOR FREE. They had no obligation to do that, you know. >:(

Bet this person would probably take credit for it, too! They probably think they're sooo smart. Yeah, no. Not sorry at all, this is pure laziness.

If this happens to me and my stories in the future I'd personally feel kind of violated. I want this fictional world I shaped to be the best it can be, which is something that takes TIME AND EFFORT, and then somebody comes along and shows how much they don't care about the work that went into the project by butchering it and stealing the scraps that remain.

Writing fanfic for other fanfics is OKAY so long as you ask permission and are respectful of the material. But this nonsense? NO. It should not be done. It should not be tolerated.

yeah uh... don't do this :)
