I'm back (as if I'm active here on Tumblr or engaging with people here) anyway, is sky cotl active here or..?

I lurk and then I disappear.. *woosh*

THIS I wanted to do it so bad, I wanted to write it down even if it was in bullet form but my mind always reminded me that 'it's not good, why even try?' or 'the plot is too common for anyone to actually get interested to it.' There will be people who will compare it to other writers' work. Sure, it has the same idea but not original. BUT THAT'S NOT THE POINT. YOU'RE HERE TO HAVE FUN EVEN IF IT'S DUMB AND CLICHE. It's impossible to write an original nowadays.. just don't plagiarize. GO WRITE, AND DO EXPERIMENTS ON HOW YOUR STORY WILL TURN OUT THEN IT WILL BE UNIQUE Please don't be like me. Years of trying and getting back up made me so tired that I don't bother to write anymore even though there are some imagined scenarios I wanted to write down. Please, have fun. Don't throw away all of your drafts, collect them.

one of the best fics i've ever read, one that had me addicted to my phone and crying, wasn't even prose. it was a huge, casual, bullet-pointed outline with every detail of an au that the author never got around to writing in full. and it was amazing.

let this be a message to all you who want to write but can't do it "normally": write it! someone out there will eat it up. whether that be poetry, tiny drabbles, or bullet pointed list: your work is always worth it. your art (yes, art!) will alway deserve to have its moment in the spotlight. why? because you made it. even if it wasn't done in a traditional matter, it came from your brain and your creativity and that is amazing.

THIS IS SO GOOD. GOD

Finally finished with this little detective conan animation!!!

The song is Under the Wool by KMODO

When your boyfriend mysteriously disappears and this creepily smart kid who looks like him shows up along with all these other shady characters who are obviously hiding some bigger conspiracy. I imagine that not knowing everything that’s going on and being left to put together clues would be pretty terrifying. It feels unfair that like literally most of the people Ran knows know about the organization while she’s left in the dark about the truth. Enjoy some Ran angst! 🥲

I’m so mad that a t4 bacteriophage actually looks like that and that it’s appearance isn’t made up

Good Traits Gone Bad

Exploring good traits gone bad in a novel can add depth and complexity to your characters. Here are a few examples of good traits that can take a negative turn:

1. Empathy turning into manipulation: A character with a strong sense of empathy may use it to manipulate others' emotions and gain an advantage.

2. Confidence becoming arrogance: Excessive confidence can lead to arrogance, where a character belittles others and dismisses their opinions.

3. Ambition turning into obsession: A character's ambition can transform into an unhealthy obsession, causing them to prioritize success at any cost, including sacrificing relationships and moral values.

4. Loyalty becoming blind devotion: Initially loyal, a character may become blindly devoted to a cause or person, disregarding their own well-being and critical thinking.

5. Courage turning into recklessness: A character's courage can morph into reckless behavior, endangering themselves and others due to an overestimation of their abilities.

6. Determination becoming stubbornness: Excessive determination can lead to stubbornness, where a character refuses to consider alternative perspectives or change their course of action, even when it's detrimental.

7. Optimism becoming naivety: Unwavering optimism can transform into naivety, causing a character to overlook dangers or be easily deceived.

8. Protectiveness turning into possessiveness: A character's protective nature can evolve into possessiveness, where they become overly controlling and jealous in relationships.

9. Altruism becoming self-neglect: A character's selflessness may lead to neglecting their own needs and well-being, to the point of self-sacrifice and burnout.

10. Honesty becoming brutal bluntness: A character's commitment to honesty can turn into brutal bluntness, hurting others with harsh and tactless remarks.

These examples demonstrate how even admirable traits can have negative consequences when taken to extremes or used improperly. By exploring the complexities of these traits, you can create compelling and multi-dimensional characters in your novel.

Happy writing!
