The Mountain Goats - Woke Up New

On the morning when I woke up without you for the first time

I felt free and I felt lonely and I felt scared

Holy shit you actually did it.

Hey I know I’m in self-imposed self reflection rn but I wanted to share this extremely blessed image.

some anime protagonist that has Big Thoughts on the folly of man: every day i wake up in this dirty and decrepit city. i see the thugs and criminals lining the streets. i see the innocents weeping in fear. i see myself, a coward, standing on the sidelines.

Me, who grew up in Las Vegas: you live in fucking tokyo, prep.

some anime protagonist that has Big Thoughts on the folly of man: animals, that’s all we are. violent and sexual. incapable of overcoming our most base desires. our humanity is nothing but a weak cover for our inherent desire to destroy.

Me, chugging a bottle of codeine that belongs to my mother: you have one of the lowest crime rates in the world, PREP.

Will you continue to write DirkJake fanfiction? And also, is there a way to access your old fanfiction? I really, really enjoyed your content!

I should have a big AO3 dump of my better blog works soon.

I definitely have a story in progress atm. But I’m not sure what the ultimate plan is. I’m taking it day by day.

Brockhampton - MILK (SATURATION, 2017)

can’t believe Rare took half a decade to make a 6.5/10 multiplayer pirate sim like what’s a bitch gotta do to get a new viva pinata over here

i once deleted a viva pinatastuck ficlet because it was played super straight for something with the title of viva pinatastuck but for the record: the concept of taking off your mask to reveal your face to your significant other once you’re sure they’re the one for you is such an intimate gesture and interesting worldbuilding detail and i’m deeply in love with it.

proposing to your significant other amidst the pressure of a public audience is OUT, proposing to your significant other through an artful, handcrafted puzzlebox representing the complex intersection between your woodworking and puzzlecrafting skills is IN,

it’s the little details!

Hello! I just have been searching for a walkthrough on "Jake English and the Secret of the Soul" for the past hour and I am just wondering if maybe you still have it somewhere? If you don't, it's fine! Have a nice day :)

I deleted the walkthrough but if you’ve got specific questions I will try to remember!

No-no, it's fine! I am just really anxious about making decisions, so I was searching for an easy way out ^^; I don't think you would appreciate me pestering you about every single tiny thing, haha

I’m so sorry! I looked through my computer and I couldn’t find the walkthrough.

I will give you some hints if you want!

-investigate your bag first

-there’s only two endings, and they’re only determined by a choice you make at the very end regarding a trap door so you can’t really fuck yourself for experimenting around

If you get stuck don’t worry about pestering me. Enjoy!

@ anon who sent me the (6/6) messages, thank you very much for your nice words! I am so flattered that you had so many bookmarks of my work. I’m getting ready to make an ao3 comp of my blogworks and if you have any special requests for stories that you want to make the cut for that just hmu!
(this goes for, like, everyone too.)

I love all your docs where the kids are deal with the reality of being immortal gods, especially the ones where Jake and dirk come and go in each other's life and keep coming back. Also I think there's one where they stay in a temple their people built for them? And possibly fuck? Not sure.

good news! not much sexual content in this one but I think this is the story you’re looking for, already archived! 

Edit: Oh! And the modern one where they keep finding each other is here, too. 

I really hope you repost the one where dirk admits himself to the hospital. His experience really resonated with me, and it might be the most accurate depiction of mental health hospitals I've seen? Also daves reaction to everything gives me lots of feelings.

When I was writing that I really reflected on my own mental health struggles, and the shame, confusion, and surprising amount of numb acceptance that often comes with them. (Alongside a healthy dose of internal comedy as a coping mechanism, hah.) I’m really glad it resonated with you. It can be nerve wracking, writing about such sensitive topics, but hearing that my intentions connected really gives me a boost in confidence as I grow closer to becoming a full-time writer. 

tldr: It will be in the AO3 story dump!

A while ago, you made some music about a dead session in Homestuck, and I just wanted to say that I listen to it every night because it's so calming and I love it dearly so thank you for making it

Weeps//

I’m really glad that that was saved somewhere in reblogs because that’s the one and only piece of piano I’ve ever been proud of & the one and only time I ever dipped into the music side of the homestuck fandom 

dirkar:

I’ve never been involved with the music side of the Homestuck community but when Homestuck ended I started vividly imagining an empty Sburb session, falling to pieces because its players had long departed from it. It was a feeling I couldn’t really capture in words or art so I decided to compose a quick song devoted to a now-empty session. May it rest in pieces.

So I decided to play the text adventure that other anon mentioned and I am stuck. Like, I already distracted Dirk and went up the ladder, but I have no idea what to do next. Do you remember by any chance?

Okay, so you’re up the ladder. That’s impressive! Did you investigate everything up there + get that sheet of (puzzle) paper?

Once you have that you can go back down the ladder and start futzing around with the fireplace. Protip: make sure you’ve entered all your “==>”! I’ve had people get stuck simply bc they missed one and weren’t taken to the next “page.”

Wtf the fuck. This sounds like slander. This sounds like they have committed serious libel.

quick jade in my ootd

i decided to post a fic ive had half done for quite a while

it’s set in a post-alternian colonization of Earth where Dirk and Jake work on the same Troll-dominated estate and fall in love

Damn, that new fic is amazing so far. I've always adored your writing and this is no different; I can't wait for more. I really hope you feel better and that your situation looks up as soon as possible, I just went through/am going through some 'oh boy' stuff too right now (definitely helped by reading a certain author's writing), so yeah.

Oh hey all the love and solidarity to ya. It’s my fault shit hit the fan, really, but sometimes you just gotta make your statement and move on/rebuild. We can do it!!

Hi! I have been reading your works on ao3 on and off for a week now and I have to say I really like your writing style! And Jake and Dirk's characters are so on the nose! I also really liked your fanfic where Dirk contacts Alpha!Dave and I was just crying while reading the whole thing.

Oh wow you went old school! Glad you liked it :)!

the dream dictionary I use is British so whenever I can’t find a word I have to wrack my brain to make sure something didn’t get lost in translation.

horreurscopes:

hey you guys, thank you so much for all the help so far. i’m looking at places today and tomorrow – hopefully one of them will be safe and available. my move was very sudden and unexpected and i’m still coping with it, so i’d still appreciate any help i could get to cover the costs; my paypal is gyeolsims@gmail.com. thank you! ✌🏽

commission for caitlindacookiemonster!!  thanks you so much!

Not to take it back to 2010 but the johndave fic where Dave’s a deep space astronaut who keeps taking missions because he feels like he’s waiting for something, wherein every 3 years he spends in space is like 10+ on Earth, and where he ultimately ends up hooking up with (& marrying? I think? I don’t actually remember a lot of this) Rose’s adoptive son John who was born and grew up while Dave was in space—is such an interesting & clever story conceit and one that I still think about.

Hey y'all pacific rim 2 was pretty good (don’t Out me y'all should have known I got a thing for big robots) but I’m just gonna say it once and then not again: Raleigh Becket drinks his respect women juice and would never have competed for an (unnamed?) woman as a prize.

Hey if you own Stardew Valley on Switch: 1) is combat difficult/necessary, 2) who’s best girl/boy to romance and 3) can you play it with one joycon? My + button is fucked up and I’m too lazy to yell @ Nintendo about it

combat isnt difficult, it's largely 'hit the button until its dead and watch ur own health'

…i think i can handle that

also oh shit since i just tested using the single joycon for stardew i think i like?? playing it better this way?? teeny lil candy controller is cute and good

anon said:  personally ive always found the stardew combat to be sorta dinky like even on comp but it’s not too awkward for me on the switch single joycon also works

this is good news!!!

my research has informed me i can’t view the quest log on single-joycon. how important is that? it sounds important D:

huhmm i mean ittt’s ? useful and kinda important? but tbh nnot entirely constantly necessary like it points you in the right direction but i’ve never been checking it on a daily basis i guess if you wanted some instruction or needed to be reminded about quest requirements you could just snap the other joycon in for a minute tho? i mean it really isn’t all that hard to switch from havin em both snapped into the switch to going to just the one - when you’re not using it as a console at least

oh yeah good point

my plus button doesnt work but when both are installed I think the minus (-) becomes the journal/quest thing?? so that will work!!

yeah i mean you dont need the plus if you’re using the single joycon bc the b button does the same thing ( or i guess it’s actually the a button but it’s where the b button would be normally - FMKDNDKD IN ANY CASE THE BOTTOM ONE —) so that works! and yep, the - is the quest, so it sounds like you’d be a-okay!!

oh fuck! this is even better news!!

fast ff

The best romance option is whoever you love

this is deep, anon. this transcends stardew valley.

this is the first time i ever sign something i’ve done. a fresh start my cat pals.

“Everyone is bisexual and no one cares what fantasy species you are, go hogwild” vs. “romancable NPCs having sexual preferences is more realistic and lifelike” is such an interesting iteration of Player Freedom vs. Narrative Control that has no discernible solution. Because I could go on and on and on about how “writers reserve the right to craft their NPCs how they wish,” and “often the limited sexual preferences of those NPCs genuinely does tie into their larger character and makes them feel less like a trophy offered up for your choosing,” but even after all that talk catch me .57 seconds into Inquisition gettin thirsty for Cassandra
