  6. Okay I’m gonna bail.

    Dad broke three bones in his leg. Mom is having me try to buy a house. She’s trying to buy a car because the transmission in hers is busted. Thanksgiving is one week away. I don’t have time for this. I’m out.

    wordsprints/word wars might help, whenever people do 'em in the discords I run a LOT gets written and it gets intense

    Yeah, I'm decent at the discord ones-- I talk too much at the in-person write-ins :P the days I missed I'm not too chuffed about, it was stuff like "family happen" or "work-induced brain death," this last stretch is just gonna be An Experience

    swirlingflight inane analysis and story spinning is my passion

    AS A FLOWER
    chopped up moments from Undertale arranged in a collage with crayon drawings filling in the rest, add three cups of self projection and a tablespoon of therapy

    fictional memoir, horror, prob something else? idk man it's fanfic, i think in themes not genres

    Ever since I played Undertale, I've been fascinated by the character Flowey. Wondering about the path he took to being who we meet at the start of the game, wishing we could give him more help after the game. And, well, I'm starting therapy, and I got to thinking of a post-canon scenario where he got therapy too. I have the power to write a happier ending into existence, and I'm gonna give it a shot. It's a fun way for me to revisit a videogame I love, and explore a bunch of feelings around grief, depression, anger, and regret about some of my stuff, projected over into his.

    a song i associate w/ flowey, because some of the lyrics have double meanings with undertale terms
