Posted in Do u ever miss ur old (toxic) friends? Posted 3 years ago
My last post here made me gather enough courage (along w the other brave stuff I mentioned in other threads) to reach out to some old friends. I just wished them well/hoped they were doing good. I just wanted my approach to be simplistic; for them not to feel pressured to reply to convo starter/not feel pressured by time in general, and of course, they have no obligation to reply~

I may move into the apartment w Juliette at some point in time too, as a room mate. There isn’t any particular urgency to do so w campuses as my study is completed for good. I do want to experience more independence w living on my own & it’s an exceptionally good place to hone my skills & help Juliette w travel. I’ll discuss it w my psychologist along w my other goals/issues, and we can tackle it (ex. my worries about always needing to know what the present/future brings) without any pre-conceived time constraints/deadlines.

I had another nightmare dream last night; I usually have dreams abt things I’m worried abt/regret, super weird ones, or what I’m currently obsessed with. In this case, it was the first/and the regret one. I have clinically observed my nightmares intensify when I’m under excessive stress, like when I was doing study & w melodramatic venting (ex. ‘I can’t cope w my anxiety!!). Is my study a thing I regret? Is my melodrama a thing I regret? Yes, godstars yes, to the latter. But...I also want to say a resounding no, because it led me to now, with my united self of accepting who I am as a person/all that I achieved. Regret, grief is a part of me. But the nightmare was still triggering, I find. Lighter on impact, but still. I have worked so much stuff yet on my self discovery journey, and worked out more (in which Voltra helped me w integrating again into connecting w people not just speaking into the void by myself). I want pills/therapy to simply help further let me in on the strange terrible & beautiful intricacies of my mind/body and live inside w/o it rendering me consistently deceased. And to not feel constrained by time, in feeling more embraced as an person in my entire. And also, a huge thing I want to remember to be delicate abt: My intensity of emotions actually have been causing me temporary memory loss.

Thank you, Total :)

Yeah, pills is a pretty sensitive topic, which is why I’m hesitant to say what exact ones I took here. I think I want to actually venture into pill taking again soon (not just say I may one day). I will discuss abt it w my doctors start of next month. I think I want to experiment w a much lower/smaller dose at first w all sorts of pills, as the main issue w them (other than not knowing if they work) were pills getting stuck in my throat/my stomach not breaking/digesting it properly (in which my nutrition plan should be worked on too to adapt to my body). I accepted I now live permanently w my intense emotions (have many mini breakdowns/am worried abt everything, & my grief/pain is a seared stitched part of me. What I want w pills is to be able to embrace it as a whole, instead of it crushing me.
I’m now rereading Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor again (and then Strange the Dreamer - it’s perhaps not as interesting as the predecessor at first, but it gets better, and I love Muse of Nightmares so much because of my son, Thyon Nero) - to revive/enrich my memory for continued muse small snapshot drabbles on my OC.

About upcoming books: I am so excited for Chain of Iron by Cassie Clare to come out in March!! <3
I've been interested in Norse mythology ever since I watched History Channel's Vikings (which is one of my all-time fave shows). Idk why, but I haven't really delved in reading books I bought a long time ago associated with it; Bernard Cornwell's series & Neil Gaiman's Norse Mythology - I'll get around to them someday; they're just sitting in my bookshelf atm ;) Maybe the strong pull towards the dark complex nature of Norse is an immersive visual thing for me~

UPDATE: Not open yet; I’m slowly integrating back into my married platform of tumblr for now w short snapshot drabbles sparked by meme/writing prompts unconstrained by time. But I am happy to leave this possibility open in future!

I'm tentatively stepping back in the roleplay world. I used to rp as a serious hobby for several years on tumblr, and am thinking of re-igniting my passion here. I'm not fully ready to actually rp again yet, but i just want to post this, so I don't keep chickening out. xD And to just test out the waters with plotting as they can be just as exciting as rping!

please be patient with me in plot/chat/rp reply; i am still experiencing aftershock from my mental deterioration years later (which i'm going to work out w my therapist) yet i love writing rp-wise so much still. plotting: only on forums (this search thread or alongside rp posts in our rp thread(s) or PM or our own 1 plotting/planning [OOC] thread for all our rps), but never outside messaging apps/platforms. lastly, please know there will be times i don't respond at all as i need a break from thinking about it for however long.


If you're still interested, here's my original character:

Name: Jessamine / Malachi (Ayami Nakajo fc; appearance ref in Snow Flower incl her wearing glasses)
Personality: She is typically loyal to people she trusts, before she got betrayed by her fellow seraphs. She grows more and more suspicious over time, with her emotions rising calamitously due to her recollections blurring or growing clearer throughout random spikes of memory in her mind. She loves gorgeous aesthetics like roses, but not in huge excess.
Bio: She got cast out of Eretz after being bitten by a vampire when she was fighting the vampire rarity in Eretz; this was the first time there was a vampire as an enemy out of all the weird creatures she and the other Dominion fought. She is outraged they would cast her out, instead of taking measures to remove the taint of the bite. She was an elite seraph! When she gets shoved out of the sky all the way to the ground, she hits her head pretty hard & loses a lot of her memory/has constant tension headaches. She does not recall she got betrayed, not even her name. She wanders around a bit, sees grass growing relatively bare besides some random flowers progressively dying, and she likes the yellow jessamine flower. She now goes by that name. She experiences conflict of her identity, whereas before she fell, her seraph religion was a stronghold, and progressively shows symptoms of becoming a full on hybrid.
Fandom: My original character based in the Daughter of Smoke and Bone world by Laini Taylor






Potential settings: Can be fandomless in real modern world with supernatural elements. You don't need to have read Daughter of Smoke and Bone. I am aiming for modern reincarnation; see my brief bio for how i am trying to revamp/adapt my detailed bio to this setting.
@kittyzilla: That's an interesting perspective about Ianto! I don't think he ever came off that way when I was watching, but I think I can see how that could be. Cyberwoman was such a heartbreaking episode ;-;

Thank you for the link! :)

Happy (belated) Valentine's Day!

I personally never celebrate it xD Yesterday & today, I just stayed home: watched a lot of Youtube & Netflix, did art, and wished happy birthday to my oldest sister today ^^
I may join in the next round :)
@kittyzilla: I love the completed Wobblemops! <3

That's great :) I didn't know the show had audiobooks/novels; I'll check them out sometime ^^ I love all the main team, especially Tosh. I remember I disliked Owen initially in my first watch, but I love how fleshed out he became. I'm happy you enjoyed the books, and that they held true to the show
I don't know how to use Discord xD I most likely won't attend, but I like the idea of these community discussions & I hope everyone has a good time~ ^^
