✨ROLE ANNOUNCEMENT✨ It's been a little bit since I've done one of these, but I'm Emi Inoue in YOMINOKUNI | 黄泉の国! Thanks so much to @elduator for having me! Always great to be back in the VN scene ^.^

Welp. I am one year older today. It's been a pretty breakthrough year if I'm being honest. Landed several VA agents. Trained for my first Muay Thai fight and got in better shape than I ever had. Grateful for everyone who's been a part of my journey and cheers to another year!

It's been a little while since this one's gotten published, but I'm still pleasantly surprised and grateful when people find it in the wild. 😭

and now your blood finds its way into my ruptured veins as i wonder what use is prayer if not carnal: every day we are recanting from our own loneliness from “self portrait as saint dymphna” by @mjluvoices.bsky.social, Grist Journal #poetry gristjournal.com/2025/04/self...

A bit ago, I met the creator of one of the projects I got cast on in person. When I asked them why they picked me, it came down to my voice being closest to what was in their head. Which surprised me because I always felt like I'm always never the voice in someone's head.

today's Chris Scott short really found a way to crawl inside me and not get out "If your brother really broke his arm. If your brother broke his arm falling from the ash tree in our backyard, the one along the fence. If your brother broke his arm..." https://www.havehashad.com/ivovi

Did both my demos with Scary Good and the agent I recently got repped by explicitly told me they were a solid factor of why I got in. You can't go wrong with Melissa and Randy! ^.^

Came back from my first actual Muay Thai competition. Lost, though I'm more annoyed that the ref called it way too early and I didn't even get to finish the round. But I had so much fun and two of my teammates won belts and another got so, so close on a split decision. 10/10 would do again :')

Did my first two fights at a Muay Thai scrimmage yesterday. Definitely a lot of fun, though there are things I need to fix. Like keeping my hands up so I don't tank four successive hard punches to the head. ^^; (To the concerned, I'm okay! I was wearing headgear and am not concussed.)

I loved today's Anyu Ching story from open, then the ending knocked me out. "I have my mother’s tongue. Not metaphorically. Not in a poetic, intergenerational trauma kind of way. I mean quite literally. It used to be in her mouth, and now it’s in mine." https://www.havehashad.com/28k7u

Epithalamium that Refuses to Ignore the Possibility of a Zombie Apocalypse by Matthew Olzmann

I'm now repped by DPN Talent in New York! Honestly still kinda shook, but we're here and we're going to make this count. ✨ Thanks so much to the team for taking a chance on me!

I have tariffed the penguins that are on Heard Island and which you were probably assuming did not export goods forgive me they were taking advantage of us so cunning and so cold

I finally did it! I ran three miles on the treadmill at a 9:50/mile pace! This was one of the benchmarks for the Muay Thai training I'm doing and I've been trying to whip my cardio into shape since January. My hamstrings are not happy with me, but we did it! :D

It surprises me how much more at peace I am with rejection and failure now. I'm a sensitive soul. I can't deny that that stuff still hurts. But now it's like, guess it happened. If I'm not what they wanted, it's their loss. If I need to improve, I figure out next steps. It's simpler that way.
