I eat up everything you create, and even though I’m well fed I’m so curious if you want to share any of your ideas for future fics or if that’s something you want to keep to yourself? 👀❤️
Sure!! I have a series of one shots to write, some of them for fests, some of them I've been pushing back for months. I also want to get the VN out as soon as possible. And once I'm done with my two long fics, I'll start on S&U's sequel, and then write Heebie Jebies' conclusion! It's a lot on my plate but I'm commited!
you're absolutely amazing for finishing that one shot while also juggling so many running fics. You're a blessing to the fandom I swear
im so sorry that i am a binger but i can't wait to read all of your ongoing fics! so excited! 힘내세용~ always supporting you silently!
Don't apologize!! I'm very excited for you to experience the fics once they're completed <3 It's becoming closer and closer for both the bodyguard au and chrysalis!! I hope you'll enjoy them once it's all finalized!! <3 Thank you for your (now not so silent) support, I really appreciate it!!
You're one of the best writers in our fandom hehe
I find your fics so entertaining and makes me wanna improve my writing, you're so talented. lowkey wanna be friends with you, so I can share ideas with you and listen to yours❤️ hopefully one day
How do u get inspiration for your fics?
There's three ways! The first one is just taking a prompt during one of the fests. It immediately makes me so excited and gives me lots of ideas. The second one is through a song or a video, that I can experience again and again to find this specific spark that got me so excited in the first place! For exemple, the one shot I just finished was born out of Kill Shot by Itzy. Listened to it non-stop while writing hehe
And the third one, which I also use whenever the two other ways dry up, is just talking with my fandom friends! No one knows how to encourage my brainrot better than my beloved degener- colleagues. We all crave something in fics, and sometimes I just need them to word vomit their own ideas for me to get inspired again and get unstuck haha but they also bring me a fresh new perspective!
If everything fails, then there's nothing to do but wait, go outside, and pick it back up later.
I'm always thankful to all my friends working hard to help me fill up the holes left in my wips <3
So excited to read! Yay thank you thank you! Hope you container having a great day 🥳

SPOILER FOR THE S&U FANS TOO PLEASE 😭😭😭😭
s&u kinda reminds me of ‘two children in a motel’ by ethel cain such a good song
Do you want to share a little spoiler for the next Chrysalis chapter or the S&U Hanbin pov fic?🤏
Chrysalis spoiler go! "He was so beautiful, Hao thought. Hanbin’s skin was like burnished copper under the warm outside light, harsh shadows tracing beautiful lines on his trembling body. Hao wished he could’ve said it was a sight he had been dreaming of for years, but his brain could’ve never conjured such an amazing image."
When did you realise you have autism? What's your worst struggle being an autistic? Also I'm really happy that you are open to share your experiences 🥹
For me it wasn't really about realizing that I had it, it was more about overcoming the idea that autism is "worse" than my struggles and that I could overcome my difficulties if I tried hard enough, because that's what I'd been told all my life. It's only in my mid twenties that friends encouraged me to seek an official diagnosis, and even then I walked in feeling like kind of an impostor. If we talk in a broader sense about my feeling of alienation and knowing that something was wrong with me, that pretty much was for as long as I remembered! Maybe it took over two decades and five therapists to see that I'm autistic but the six year old girls gave their diagnosis in a split second lol. I didn't understand what didn't work socially but I knew I was doing something wrong despite trying very hard. As for all the other symptoms, I did feel them but was told to suck it up and stop crying basically, so I perceived it more as me being weak rather than me having an actual problem.
As for the worst struggle I would say it depends on my age. When I was a child and a teen, it was definitely the social aspect that affected me the most, since it lead to heavy bullying, violence and abuse in all of my personal circles. My inability to act like people around me wanted coupled with the impression that I was the one in the wrong for not meeting their expectations led me to be dangerously vulnerable and taken advantage of in ways I thought I deserved. However, now that I actually developped some social skills AND self respect, I would say that the hardest part is grappling with the fact that my disability will never let me be independant and that I do require people to help me go through my daily life because of my other symptoms. I have systems in place and I'm mostly okay but sometimes thinking about it gets hard, because I need to grieve the life I thought I would eventually be able to have.
I hope it wasn't too heavy lol I think it's important to share about those things since the stigma is so heavy against it, especially for afab people that don't meet the criteria built around autistic boys from the last century and that the ressources online only talk about children.
