We're only on day 2 and I've already tried to visit ao3 more times than I can count on two hands. Send help

Didn't wanna retype alla this from my Tumblr so have a screenshot with alt text about why you should comment directly on a fic if you want the fic writer to know you like their fic!
AO3 is down, Ellipsus is not and while they're not the same thing you can absolutely share your work via Ellipsus, leave/receive comments that way, and get/give props (kudos). It's not ideal but it is a solid alternative until AO3 is back imo! 💜 We can get through this! 😭🫂
I always underestimate how exhausting the simplest social acts such as "hi" can be when I'm in the bad, no good, bed only, I'm not here bye-phase
help I've caught the dress-making bug #dressmaker
Fuck: Zenos Marry: Elidibus Kill: Teledji there's something hilarious about those first and second pulls considering the AU I'm writing 😂 #wolqotd
#wolqotd using the same wheel, you should roll 3 character and do a fuck, marry, kill OR befriend, hug, push over for your wol/oc 🤭 spinwheelmaker.com/wheel/79488
Actually I'm good, this is fine, I don't care if the flight never ends ok bye (tho for some reason I feel like Zenos would drive Lahabrea nuts so that'll be interesting) #wolqotd
#wolqotd / #wolquestion spin this wheel twice. these are the two characters you're seated in between on a long flight (think 12+ hours). how are we doing? spinwheelmaker.com/wheel/79488
as a SWTOR/KOTOR & Dragon Age, and Mass Effect fan this breaks my god damned heart. I think SWTOR's safe with Broadsword?? But the others... fuck EA. Some of those games really informed so much of my life, gaming and fandom experience
on AO3 and to this day I'm the sole writer for: - Lahabrea/Thaliak (Lahabrea/Thaliak/WoL too) - Athena/Igeyorhm and one of two people for: - Lahabrea/Estinien All three of these are ships I actively have and am currently working with in various writing and hc/main story. #wolqotd #rarepairs
(Ok #WoLQotD #WoLQuestion for my shippers out there: Tell me about your rarest of pair. Your loneliest of ship, one that's more like a one person kayak than even a 40' sailboat. Mine is WoL/Mide Hotgo. As far as I am aware, I'm the ONLY person that ships it. Sadge. If not wife, why wife shape!?🥰)
this is probably one of my favorite characters in World of Warcraft like he'd go onto my hear-me-out cake for those voice lines alone www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hut...

I'm reading fanfics I wrote in my teens and istg this shit reads like fucking satire at this point I can't stop laughing and facepalming
the 'Fannish Next of Kin' system on AO3 is pretty good in theory but I'm using email addresses that I check maybe once or twice per year and "if you don't respond within 10 days to confirm you're alive" is what loses me access to my account then whelp, I'd be screwed
She's very short for her race/gender and my headcanon surrounding it is she grew up an orphan in the city, far removed from her family and any clan Lahabrea's height for comparison, his is unchanged and I do love their size difference 💖 #wolqotd #aliaralore #wolship
#wolqotd #wolquestion Is your wol short, average, or tall for their race/gender? Do they have any particular thoughts on their height?
I've always hated parents who use their own children as tools in a divorce/custody situation or only showing their kids love and care as part of winning them over so they can hurt the other party with it rather than actually caring about the kid
Only 2'ish days left on this btw!! I'm so excited for mine 💖

idk about favorite but most *impactful* was the moment Aliara & most of the Scions flew from Castrum Cenri and Lahabrea lowers his hood to reveal himself as Thancred. Basically became the deciding factor in my headcanon and main story while solidifying my WoL/Lahabrea ship #aliaralore #wolqotd
#wolqotd #ffxivqotd Let's go back to our roots here. What was a favorite moment from A Realm Reborn for you? A moment that still sticks with you, even though it may have been years since you did ARR?
There's an alternative Aliara, she's still featured in my Elpis fic under the name Aeliana. It's the Miqo'te appearance she had for a while because I really wanted her to have hats, but since Viera can wear those now she's back to her true OG self
anyway good morning to my fellow creatives let's get a new project going
Had a good talk with some friends last night and it's helped me realize that a lot of my current struggle stems from: - learning that a lot of childhood trauma + lack of love, care, support from caregivers is not only very real but also wrong and I didn't deserve the neglect - realizing that
husband and my girl found their way into dragon's dogma 2 💜
Aliara will do everything in her power to avoid accumulating any at all whether financial or being indebted to someone in other ways. And if for some reason she does end up owing a debt, she'll make sure it's paid off in full and with "tax" asap. #wolqotd #aliaralore
#NewShiftNewQuestion | #wolqotd | #wolquestion Debt. How does your OC pay it off?
A lot of the time, I enjoy this fandom. I enjoy meeting likeminded folks, people who enjoy the same NPCs, ships, story beats etc. People who enjoy sharing art, writing, and other content in the fandom. But sometimes this fandom is kinda shit. I have rarely found spaces where *adults* are so keen--
The way I haven't even logged in the game yet but I already know everything that happens in that event and everyone that shows up in it because y'all are too trigger happy with the screenshot button for shit that hasn't been live for even 10 hours yet
Welcome to Hermes Week, a creative event from 12/7 to 12/13: - All media is welcome & all solo or platonic/romantic works are welcome. (Can include WoLs or non-WoL OCs alike) - NSFW is welcome, just please label & tag any NSFW content or major content warnings fully. #HermesWeek | #HermesWeek2026
✅- It's Complicated To start, she steals his thunder when he first makes his presence known to the Scions because she *does* have some knowledge of Garlean history which, combined with what Gaius and Varis have told her separately, lead to the obvious conclusion. So she greets him by his title of--
How does your WoL/OC feel about Emet Selch? Love? Hate? Or are they just indifferent? #wolqotd
aliara and lahabrea have been isekai'd ?? into dragon's dogma 2 i've also set the sound clip of "and from the deepest pit of the seven hells to the very pinnacle of the heavens, the world shall tremble, unleash ultima" as my notification sound for taking my hormone meds

Aliara started on her journey because she wanted to find her purpose, something worthwhile, but got spooked after Carteneau. If Y'shtola hadn't come upon her years later and convinced her to meet with the Scions, she probably would've remained living a simple, quiet life in Limsa. #aliaralore
#wolqotd In recent patches there’s been talk of the WoL and ambition. Is your WoL/OC the ambitious sort? Do they have a goal that involves just themselves and maybe a couple of others? Are they simply trying to survive?
