Currently rereading between seasons and I can’t get enough of it. Something about them is just perfect for me. Wishing you all the best this new year
What you doingggg???!!!! (Also a very happy new year 🎊🎊🎊🎊🎊🎊 may this new year bring lots of happiness, joy and health🎆🎆🎆) - May
Would you give me spoilers of the vamp au bc it's my fav topic but it's hard find good ones 🥹
Hello, love
I just wanted to let you know how much I absolutely ADORE and LOVE your new vampire fiction! I'm so excited and intrigued, especially about how the relationship between JK and 0T6 will develop, and the whole universe the story takes place in!
Amazing work as ways
hello queen, i just wanted to say that your new vampire fic is FUCKING AMAZING LIKE I KEEP REREADING IT AND ITS SO GOODDDDD
I keep checking the tweets to see if there are any updates even when I know it won’t happen until monday, but i’m so excited to be on another fic journey with you as my guide😩
I’m so excited to see which direction you’ll go with this one, and thank you for sharing it with all of us💜
YOUR WRITING IS DAMN INCREDIBLE! anyway if i want to do a request on your running fic, is it possible? i could pay it for commission.. and how much it will be? 😀
Hii! Thank you so much!! Well, I think it would depend on the outline of the fic, but honestly, most of them have kind of loose outlines so I'm more than open to discussion lol And for a price, we could discuss how many words this particular request/storyline would take and go from there! My usual rate is $2 every 300 words! You can DM me or email me at lilocaine@gmail if you want to chat about it!
I’m so excited about the vampire fic, I’m very intrigued by the world building. I’m torn between thinking oh poor baby jk and yes! Let’s baby jk
You might not see the way my acc is locked but pixie? That one rapline alphas and omega koo was amazing! Reading it in one sit i shed tears because it was very relatable.. the feeling of being vulnerable and hopeless towards the future because you're deemed as something that isn't special. I love you. You're brilliant. You deserve lots of rest and gummies for birthing between seasons. I'll patiently wait for an update!
GUMMIES!! I love gummies and I love someone that loves gummies tooo!!!
Thank you so much! I really like how that story is developing, and writing about JK coming from such a vulnerable, uncertain place has been cathartic.
I promise from here on is mostly fluffy and fun times (with a little smut). Rapline are lovely alphas more than ready to give JK everything he wants and more (what a dream)
congratulations on finishing under your skin!!!!!!!!! such a big accomplishment and thank you for sharing an amazing rollercoaster of a story ❤️ i’ve been following the au since the beginning and have been religiously reading them every update for months and i honestly don’t know what to do now… i already miss namkook being crazy for each other BUT i look forward to more of your writing! no pressure tho i’m sure we’re all grateful for whatever you share and will wait patiently no matter what hehe
Thank you so much! I'll definitely miss this namkook a lot. They were my first big project and it was made very light because of all your intereractions. I loved veery second.
Thank you so much for being with them (and me) from the beginning. I was always a little scared of making the story boring and repetitive but the love was always there and I really appreciate it.
I'm very excited about a couple of projects that I have lined up! If you like my writing style in general, I have a few fun things coming soon, including another namkook!!❤️❤️❤️
Estaba esperando que actualizarlas hoy y luego me acordé que el namkook se acabó el LUNES!?!!!?!!
AHHH THIS UPDATE WAS SO GOOD!!! POOR JK!!! HES JUST SO UPSET AND CONFUSED!! AND STILL BEING THE SWEETEST BOY EVER!!! I can't wait to see how his meeting with YG goes 😬😬💙
Hi pixie!!!! I'm absolutely loving both of the threads you have going!!!! Hope you're doing well 🥰
hiii, pixie!! (:
“sometimes it feels like like if fighting against us instead of guiding us forward”… this is SO true :( but what's left for us is to fight back 💪💪
yeah, some people are using VPN but the judges determined a fine of around 8,900 usd if they find us using it and i don't have this money, so i won't use it, for now 🥲🥹 idk if you have something like that there, but it’s never cool to do something “”“illegal”””, right? 🥹
i have a bluesky account but it's so empty and different, it makes me anxious to think about using it, so i haven't used it yet 😔 i’m thinking about creating one account only for reading, maybe there's less “pressure” that way, idk… thank you for sharing your profile, tho… i’ll follow you there (:
yes!! Twitter notifications keep working, i had them turned off for a while but a friend said it was working and she was right!! idk why it happens but it’s almost like Twitter isn’t totally gone lol 🥹🥹🥹
as for under your skin, i think you should keep writing it until your heart tells you to ahahahah it’s a great story and i know everyone who reads it will love your characters 💜
i was in a waiting room the last time i read an update (not last night, months ago 🥹), so i wasn't this focused but it was so comforting… it was the dinner(?) at namjoons (NOW NAMKOOKS!!! 😭😭😭) home with OT7 being cute and funny… i think the baby (mina, right?) wasn't even born yet… and i remember jk was wearing(?) a plug all the time hahaha and jk was leaving?? i don't remember the details, but it was the last night of the week they spent together? it sounded to me like a calm before the storm, and things got a bit crazy irl after that so i wasn't in the right mindset to read (or do anything besides lay down in my bed in my free time 🥹), especially if the next part is indeed angsty… anyway, i’m stronger now and i’ll read it on ao3 🥺 i have so many questions, tho… i think you're not where i stopped yet, so i’ll wait to see how things will get to the point they are now… i’ll take some time to read a bit tonight!! ☺️
also… you have a new thread?? 😭😭😭😭 rapline/jk?!🔥 i feel like i missed so much!! how about the namgi story? i need to browse on your ao3 too 🥺
things will get better for us!! thank you for bringing me comfort, it’s really appreciated 💜

OMG Otter! I'm so sorry it took so long to answer! I locked myself out of Retrospring and had so many issues getting back in lmao, but here I am!
Yeah, fighting back is definitely our best option lol, Toongi raise no bitches! And I totally understand, is not worth the risk while there's so many other platforms to explore. I'm trying (and failing) to be a bit more active in Bluesky, I think I'll move my socmed over there and double post when I start new threads. To have a backup just in case. I like bluesky exactly because is a relatively smaller platform and how similar the layout is to twitter makes me feel at ease hehe.
OMG so much happened with Namkook since your last read! I'm glad you stopped there tho, because after that comes "the big sad" even if it last just a couple of chapters it still a little emotionally taxing (or at least I hope the angst is angsting lol). AO3 is only getting started with the smut lol, so there's still a bit to go, but once I'm done with some fest claims and a fic exchange I plan to speedy the editing of Namkook!
And yesss! The rapline/jk threas is a gift for a very dear friend and I'm having a blast, it's my first every "traditional-issh/historic" pack setting.
Namgi is stull on hiatus t.t, I'm basically re-shaping the story and changing the timeline a little (I'm writing more about Nmagi's past, not only mentoning it) And I hope to be able to start posting it to ao3 by december maybe january.
And yes! We deserve good things and we'll definitely get them! And I'm glad my writing brings you comfort because your comments sure feel like a warm hug.
💜💜💜
hi, pixie!! i hope you're doing well!! it’s the long-ass comments anon again, I’M FINALLY BACK!! 🥹
things are slowly but steadily starting to get better and i’m in the right mindset to read again… the problem is… that i’m Brazilian LOL and the owner of Twitter hates us (and now i refuse to call it X even more!!) so i can't read under your skin or any of your threadfics that i had bookmarked… do you happen to use any other social media platform? 🥹 (it took me forever to find you here without Twitter, btw, i feel like a hacker lol)
ON THE BRIGHT NOTE, i discovered today that my Twitter notifications are still working and i have yours on… so i can read your updates as you write… it's not the best way to read something, some posts are missing and i’m SO curious to know how they got to this point, but I loved this update… i was so stressed and read about this namkook again, it felt like going back home after a long while… like THEY ARE LIVING TOGETHER!! they're redecorating!! their friends are helping!! i might cry 😭😭😭😭
i saw you're posting under your skin on ao3, so i’ll gladly (re)read it there!! 💜
also, quite random, but i saw the news about your country and immediately thought about you… i hope you're safe and that things get better soon 😔🫂
be prepared to receive my long-ass comments on ao3 from now on too 💜
with love,
- 🦦 (i saw someone signing their messages on curious cat with an emoji and thought it was a good idea lol)
OMG!!!
Hi 🦦 !!! It's been so long! I truly missed your "long-ass" comments lmao, you always make me smile.
I'm glad things are coming back to normal, sometimes it feels like like if fighting against us instead of guiding us forward. Noooo! That's so annoying! I'm having a lot of issues with Twitter too (here is banned but we basically use it with vpn, but I totally understand it's a scary thing to do because, what if they find out?) I do use bluesky, not as much, but I'm trying to be a little more active over there. I won't move my existing threads but I'll start double-posting the new or shorter ones over there. I'm https://bsky.app/profile/lilocaine.bsky.social
I will keep posting Under Your Skin on ao3, at least there's that! And it's so sweet and I'm so flattered thta you took the time to find my account again! Thank you so so much, it means the world. Must admit it made me giggle a little that you read a bit of the update through the notifs. I noticed the same thing! Even if I can't open twitter the notifs keep coming??? Make it make sense. I'm curious tho, what was the last part you read? The thread is relatively close to its end (I keep saying that every two weeks but my friends keep convincing me to add more to the story but I sid this was enough!! Let's see if I stick to it, tho lmao)
And yeah, my country is a little mess right now, lol, I figure you can relate to that! I hope things keep gettig better for you and I hope I can keep bringing you comfort
your fics are genuinely so good!
I'm just wondering how pregnancy works in 'under your skin' with how much namkook go at it
