Being Nonbinary But Not In A Gender Neutral Way Is So Hard. People Assume Nonbinary = Neutral Gender

whumpee running a fever and struggling to focus, feeling really weak and unable to do their daily tasks but stubbornly continuing to try, when caretaker pulls them aside to quietly ask if they're alright. when whumpee nods their head, caretaker softly says, "i don't think you are, sweetheart"

cue whumpee dissolving into tears and caretaker bringing them home to soothe and care for them through their fever

I was sick today so I spent the time drawing silly little block men

The World Splits

There once was a world, similar to our own, but that world split, leaving multiple worlds that connected together, one of them being empty but the biggest.

So some higher powers decided to make the big empty world a hub of some sorts, a place that people can go and use to travel between these worlds.

now the smaller worlds are called servers, and everyone travels in-between them all the time.

im just gonna leave this here

no i will not be giving any context

How to write a satisfying ending

By Writerthreads on Instagram

I found that writing endings is one of the hardest parts of writing. There has to be some emotion behind it, but how much? And do you make it happy, or sad? Satisfying, or suspenseful? All of these are hard questions that you have to ask yourself even before you start. Here are some tips to help you with your story's ending.

Know what you want

When you're planning your story, have a rough idea of how the book or series will end, or at the very least, what will happen to your main character(s). This way, you can revolve your plot around the character and move things around while the final few scenes remain unchanged.

Try different endings

Experiment with different endings for your story. Will there be a final battle or a grand event? Or is there a surprise ending? You could build the story towards an ending that the readers can predict then change course last minute to spice things up.

Mimic the beginning

Does your story start with a phrase or at a special location? Use it again in the grand finale. If the story starts at a New York City penthouse, you could end it there again in a full circle. If it starts with a sentence that a character says, let them, or someone else of significance, say it again. (This works especially well if the original character says it dies.)

Invoke emotions

In my opinion, the best endings are bittersweet and satisfying. Make sure that the readers feel something, so they will continue to think about the book long after they're finished with it. Some of these books include The Fault in our Stars, The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, The Midnight Library, and The Song of Achilles, to name a few.

Allow room for expansion

If you don't feel quite satisfied by the ending and think that you can go further with another undeveloped storyline in your book, or you want to expand the world you've built, you can always write a spinoff series! This was done beautifully in Chloe Gong's Foul Lady Fortune, that continues a few years after Our Violent Ends.

Make it satisfying

Whatever you write, make sure the story feels concluded. Every major plot point should be purposeful, and they should all lead to the ending that feels closed. Make sure that all plot holes are fixed, and anything left ambiguous can be inferred to be left like that on purpose.

This is a bit hard to explain, so it's better to ask beta readers this question when you send the final draft off to them. We have a post called "Questions for beta readers" for more information!

Whatever you decide to do with your story's ending, treat it well and write lots of versions of it until you get the perfect one! Good luck and happy writing!

being self aware suuuucks like yeah this thought pattern/behavior is stupid and pointless and a symptom. i know this. [does it anyways

Scott's and Jimmy's interaction made me think a lot (other than flower husbands for once)

Because like, canonically he's never fucking met Jimmy before. Mans just saw a cute boy and went "Gonna tie me up cowboy?" why is he like this /pos

But also if he's like that with every cute boy he meets, how many times did he come across a pretty boy while out adventuring, flirt the fuck out of them and then bring them back to his tent to erm,,,,,,, cuddle with them?

I think Scott accidentally made himself a whore in canon I love that for him

Death and Life

Totems of undying have been around since the world split, they have been giving a second chance to players since one world turned into multiple servers, maybe even before that.

Maybe that's why their magic effects those who don't have one yet, they allow those who have died to wake up in their bed with only memories and scars. They rebuild the body they once had and give them another chance to live, over and over again.

But when their magic stops working on them it lets them move on to be reborn or to leave the world of the living and go to an afterlife.

Nothing can reach to far though. When the split happened Totems didn't manage to reach some worlds, in those worlds you only have one life and no second chances to live it.

Some worlds they do exist but don't give their magic to those who haven't got one. Their magic is weakened in those world, they can't help the players that are so far away. The players call these hardcore worlds.

There are some world where they can still reach the players, but are weaker and can only save them for a certain amount of times.
