One Of My Favorite Things About Reading Fanfics Is When They Include Playlists Of Inspiration Or Like

One of my favorite things about reading fanfics is when they include playlists of inspiration or like what the characters are listening to or whatever. I have gotten to listen to so much enjoyable and interesting music because of the MDZS/CQL fan fiction I have read.

Me discovering that it is my fave cinnamon roll's birthday, looking at the clock after just finishing a big piece... I have time... I can do an art of Wen Ning, the Ghost General, the best boi..... So.... Bye! I am going to see if I can make anything good before midnight.

show, don't tell:

anticipation - bouncing legs - darting eyes - breathing deeply - useless / mindless tasks - eyes on the clock - checking and re-checking

frustration - grumbling - heavy footsteps - hot flush - narrowed eyes - pointing fingers - pacing / stomping

sadness - eyes filling up with tears - blinking quickly - hiccuped breaths - face turned away - red / burning cheeks - short sentences with gulps

happiness - smiling / cheeks hurting - animated - chest hurts from laughing - rapid movements - eye contact - quick speaking

boredom - complaining - sighing - grumbling - pacing - leg bouncing - picking at nails

fear - quick heartbeat - shaking / clammy hands - pinching self - tuck away - closing eyes - clenched hands

disappointment - no eye contact - hard swallow - clenched hands - tears, occasionally - mhm-hmm

tiredness - spacing out - eyes closing - nodding head absently - long sighs - no eye contact - grim smile

confidence - prolonged eye contact - appreciates instead of apologizing - active listening - shoulders back - micro reactions

If we’re bringing back caturday we need to bring back another classic style of post….

For every 5k notes I will buy Radar a new squishmallow to sit on

That feeling when you write a HUGE post and then just... click save as draft because you aren't sure you want to enter the discourse. But boy oh boy maybe I shouldn't have started following that tag...
