Moonlitinks - Ave

reading over some of my better WIPS and thinking “damn. I sure am good at writing. if only I was good at finishing what I wrote 💀”

YEEES the best promotion i got this year LMAO

i am so, SO excited for her new album! seriously, i hope your writing streak lasts! and thank you so much! i think it's more that i'm scared to start again, but the ideas have been coming back to me hehe. and awww, thank you so much! (that seriously makes me want to write now AHHHH)

life is going well! uni ): but surviving pfft

TELL ME HOW WHERE PARADISE DIED AND LIVED is DOING bc last i remember it was still in the research works and i was so invested and then i disappeared but i missed it so HERE I AM

also let me know how you've been! and how life + writing has gone! <333

HI AVE THANK YOU FOR ASKING ABOUT WPDL YOU KNOW IT'S MY BABY

I'm still working very slowly but surely on it! It is currently at 14.5k words and I'm still waiting for the Archives to respond to my request (bureaucracy strikes again 😭) BUT a new book came out a few weeks ago that I bought right away and it more or less answered the question I was wondering about anyway, so I'm somewhat satisfied—I still want to get that response for the official documents though!

I've written quite a few of the most important scenes, which leaves all of the not-as-fun filling in to do, hence the reason for some slow down. I also got sidetracked for a hot minute in writing an essay on how "This Love" by Taylor Swift is the ultimate theme song for Sophie lmao. (Haven't finished that either yet, typical.) Literally did not touch any of my other WIPs in all of August just to focus on WPDL and was super productive; then I felt a good refresh and recharge to go back to BHE, so I've been bouncing back and forth between them in the last couple weeks.

As for myself, life is going well! I'm luxuriating in the proper arrival of fall and cooler temperatures! I'm going to a pumpkin patch this weekend! I got promoted at work! And last week I went to my best friend's wedding as her maid of honor!

Thank you for checking in my sweet friend! 🥺 <3 xxxx

i hate it when she says “no,” like her word is final. but with every goodbye i give, she offers amends. have a good night, she ends, even after every fight.

money, the taboo topic no one dares to touch on, is nonexistent. yet, she works long hours, back breaking, head aching, so that her children can eat without worries. don’t worry about the money, she insists, i’ll take care of it.

thousands of miles apart, we used to fight like cats and dogs, and i still can’t swallow down my pride in front of her, insistent on winning. except when she calls me and tells me, encourages me, not to worry, guilt eats at me.

can i rewind the last few months? change my own mind?

this is love: complicated, emotional, unconditional. the love of a mother.

Soft gestures for Lovers:

(feel free to use! 4, 5, 6, 7 esp 14, 15, and 17 is omgg UFJWJX tag me when you write any of these plss)

tracing your lovers features while they sleep

when they like to kiss the tips of your finger every morning

"You're home early?" and them shuffling shamelessly instead of telling you they just missed you

"you're staring!" "i like seeing you happy, love."

physical touches that aren't sexual but full of love >>>>

"tch, stop moving!" "why-?" "you feel amazing in my arms"

cuddles where their nose nuzzles on your nose and a slight giggle escapes their lips

"i trust you."

"should i cook today?" "i--don't trust you with my kitchen, babe."

family dinners where your lover just keeps coming to your side "how you doin love?" "oooh cooking sum delicious i see" "mom, look at the love of MY LIFEEE"

"Do you remember that day?". "Of Course I do, i was head over heels for you then, babe, you know?"

pink cheeks as they blush at your compliment !!! ( AHHH is it hot in here?)

forehead kisses and bear hugs ♡

when they're tired and want to just cling onto you : [

"you... you're my lifeline"

making flower rings for your lover >>

extending your hand for them to hold everytime they walk behind you and they wrap clasp their fingers around yours

when they're drunk and they keep mumbling i love yous and how much they want to kiss you so bad

doing dumb shit with your lover and looking back at it

"lay on my lap, please, i wanna play with your hair"

them smiling from one ear to another watching you be you

"hey, you hoodie stealer!" "shawty, you ma heart stealer!"

fumbling with their hand as you tell a story

a small kiss, a slow one, a tired one followed by a soft giggle audible to only the both of them

"shall we head to bed, love?"

Welcome to a new series I’m calling Midnights Mayhem With Me. I’m going to be using this technological advanced device to help me allow fate to decide exactly what track titles I’m going to be announcing and in what order. In this cage are 13 ping pong balls, labeled 1 through 13 each representing a track on the Midnights album. So let’s leave it up to fate. (ft. Meredith)
