hello! unrelated to a prior anon but would u be ok with receiving fanart for āin silenceā even though it has been a while since its release? i have a few things painted in my mind (all inspired by your beautiful proseā¦.) that i would love to draw ā they are nothing polished by any means, but a handful of fleeting moments iād like to capture from your writing! i just want to make sure it is ok and also if it is ok to tag you each time? or prefer just one big post with them all? thank you once again for this gift ā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļø i am poor with words so art is my medium to express thanks š„²
Hi! I wrote the question earlier on ao3, but could you please give me the permission for translating your fic āthe hunting gameā? Iām going to upload it on ficbook.net and on ao3, if you donāt mind ā¤ļø
Hello!!! I hope youre doing well.. Its been a few months since i first read in silence but to this day I still think about it from time to time!! It has become my favourite fic.. thank u sm for writing it.. It makes me cry every time I think about how much they care about each other... it really changed my life.. man im not great with words but its!! really good!
I also really love how you incorporated all of hannie's solos in there and I can only hear them in the context of ur fic now :') It makes me a little curious how 'don't say' and 'hold my hand' might manifest in your universe!! I sometimes day dream about it!
I'm planning on doing some fanart for in silence and ill make sure to tag you in it when i get the energy to draw again ^^ thank u again for the most beautiful love story ever...
insi my baby... i'm so happy to hear that it became something that means so much to you, because it means.. so much.. to me.... i actually discovered their discography through (in this order exactly): close, wish you back, alien !! besides the fact that the lyrics themselves lend themselves very easily to a storyline (hanpop on top. his mind.. so big), the fact that it was my own introduction to their music made the writing feel very natural ^^
when i first started workshopping insi i always thought i'd write a little companion piece from hjs's perspective as an epilogue of sorts... then it grew to be this 50k beast and i gave up because i was barely scraping by trying to meet my original writing goals... but if i were to it would have for sure included more of his songs... it may still happen one day.. very unlikely.. but never say never.....
i think hold my hand and don't say are very brave songs.. if they were to ever exist in the insi universe they would most certainly be proclamations of courage.. volcano is very sweet but i see it as more of a defiant, let-the-world-try, development of self sort of song... don't say is a bit more mature but hold my hand describes a love that has matured to me.. the selfless kind that focuses on the other person instead of inner turmoil.. ah.. i could muse abt hanpop forever..
fan ART ???? ?! ?!? !! ? u have blown my mind... the concept of it is.. mind-blowing.... i think art that inspires creation is the highest kind of honor and u have given me the gift of this knowing how u feel... thank u.... truly.. a million times over...
inferno update when? šš
it's been 99.9% done for a bit actually!!! in the wake of recent events... i've been.. hmm.... revising it a bit. things will probably make sense when it's published and i will certainly have An Author's Note To Add. there's a lot of heavy stuff being discussed and i want to make sure it is done in a respectful and nuanced way that still stays true to the point of the fic! have been having a lot of discussions w friends about what fiction is and What Is The Point ā¢ and i have gained lots of clarity.. at the expense of this ch's workshopping im afraid..... my deepest apologies.... she is on her way...
just wanted to let you know inferno is seriously one of the best pieces of writing i had ever read. like i seriously finished and had to immediate re-read it. it was so good. the fact that when your reading it you feel like everything is not how it seems, and then the feeling of unease just builds and builds before breaking right at the end. seriously so good, i am constantly in awe of it when i think back to it
et nos cedamus amori is an absolute masterpiece, as well as in silence, such beautiful stories that had me an emotional wreck in the best way possible! and iāve been incredibly excited about inferno as well, that first chapter has me on the edge of my seat! you are such a talented writer and i just wanted to let you know that youāre appreciatedš¤
Just found you from The Hunting Game, under the Consensual Non-Consent tag (my guilty pleasure) and this is the seriously the BEST ONE I READ SO FAR! The dynamic, the plot, the everything was so perfect, I LOVE YOU SO MUCH! Iām moving on to your other fics now and prolly will leave a review for those in the future(if you donāt mind)! Take care and thank you for blessing us with these masterpieces <333
I remembered when I first discovered your first fic and when I clicked to your profile to see if you had more works, I got sad cuz you only had one š„²š„²š„² I really like the way you write š«
ahh yes there was a long stretch between insi and the next fic >< this is so intriguing to hear because imo in silence is pretty different than how i'd written previously, and i tried to tackle a lot of things that i found challenging during that process... i'm glad to hear that you like it though hehe thank you!!
shdjdjdjndn the speed with which i ran when i saw you had a twt!!!! aaaahhhh i love your work so much!! iāve reread in silence over and over again and it hurts so much everytime!! /pos ššš
hi my favorite writer i hope u r having a good day today pls take lots of rest!!!!
would u say a house in nebraska by ethel cain is in silence mnho n jsng coded... because i always listen to that song to help in silence make me cry more :')) every signle time !
ooh i've never thought about it too much (im a sun bleached flies girl..) but ur right it does fit..... finding the photographs from school... the u might never come back home and i may never sleep at night... omg.. tbh i mostly listened to their songs while writing... i can guarantee u anything written to preacher's daughter would have way way more angst ...
your reasoning is fully valid!! almost everyone i know (including me)from here is taking a break too it really took a toll on us and im glad youre prioritizing yourself and your values among everything š«¶š» hope youve been having amazing days
it has definitely been an interesting time... what u believe in and what u do is who u are, and i've always known what's important to me there.. i love this community + writing for them and i don't plan on stopping that, but sometimes it will take a backseat to more important things, and this has just been one of those times! sending much love back at u anon š«¶
HI DAISIER do u know ethel cain ,,, i love u by the way
when is the next update š„¹š„²
IM SORRYY i won't lie i've been taking a weeee break bc of their recent promotions and it feels a little weird hunkering down and writing when i'm sort of avoiding everything that has to do with l/m/b to focus on More Important Real World Things. the last month was also crazy busy and i have this thing where i don't let myself interact until i'm making writing progress (which is silly. but. i'm working on conquering the mind demons..) but !!! i'm fully free for the next 2 weeks + will have tons of time being jetlagged + i promise i just need to polish ch2 and it will be yours!!! there will be no cliffhanger and u will probably like it haha ha h a ha ok i need to stop making promises i can't keep
hi!! what does outdaisier mean? i have a theory but i don't think it's right :o
it's a silly bilingual pun.. daisier is just daisy as a adjective.. and then since daisier was taken on twt.. (stick w me here)... daisy ā éč ā åŗå± ā out... haha ! as for why daisies.... they're one of my favorite flowers and i like hj's painting of them!!
+ ur gonna need to suspend some disbelief for this one.. but š¼ is very loosely a daisy... and ā³ļø is barely out (like. out golfing and u win or something. idk i don't play)
