hamimi_fkStill trying to get back into writing so I pulled the trigger and finished the half-completed fifth chapter to my Pokemon/Hunger Games/Cabin in the Woods fic. It read short and quick to me (and a bit incomplete), but it's somehow over a thousand words, idk how but I won't complain. It got a few hits but no new likes, which is fine. It's my pet passion project because sometimes you just have to scratch those odd ideas in your head.
With two other fics newly begun (one Pokemon - Gold/Silver fic and one Delicious in Dungeon - Marcille/Falin), I felt a bit embolden and just now decided to apply to scoop up a pinch hit for an exchange. I also decided not to stress myself too much with my ladiesbingo card and plan to aim for just 500-word stories to keep it low pressure. If I write more, cool. If not, also cool. I gradually hope to rebuild my writing ability because dammit if I don't miss it.

Speaking on fandomy things - I started watching anime more regularly. I've been slacking pretty hard on them for years for literally no reason. But I've been paying for Crunchyroll the past couple of months because my son needed to see the rest of One Piece and Netflix shit the bed with the episodes they have (he recently passed the 1000 episode mark, and holy shit, I'm proud of him - dunno if I'll jump into the series with similar gusto any time soon). I finally realized, after several months, that I'm an idiot and should be using it too since I'm paying for it, lol.
Current anime watch list:
- Chainsaw Man (episode 4)
- My Hero Academia (season 6)
- Spy X Family (season 1)
- Am I Actually the Strongest? (episode 3)
- Delicious in Dungeon (episode 20)
It's tempting to jump into more series but I'm trying to restrain myself so I actually finish a show! Like, Chainsaw Man is currently on-hold while I finish at least one of the others on the list. My Hero Academia is also a bit on hold cuz I was watching it with my son but he's extremely focused on finishing One Piece and he can only watch one anime at a time (boo). He's been working on it for almost a year, to put our hiatus in perspective.
I'm also trying to get back into mangas. I've realized nothing beats holding a manga in hand so I'm alowly building a small "newer" collection (I have some books from back in my teen years, so they're "old" now). My Hero Vigilantes is the forefront of my collection so far. I haven't read it yet - gonna wait until I get caught up with anime again. Yes, I know I don't have to, but I want some content in the same universe to consume once I get caught up to the main series.

Also, the pilot for Homestuck the Animation dropped recently and I'm pretty hyped. Some ppl were complaining it was too short and missed a lot of content but it was just a pilot, not the complete series, or even a snapshot of a season. Episodes could be longer which would help. There's also ppl complaining about the voices, but clearly they have no idea who voices the characters so their opinions can eat ass. I just hope the fandom doesn't get toxic again and fuck it up for the rest of us fans who are generally excited.
I hadn't considered it before, but I might end up writing HS fanfic again. I don't know if that's a good thing or not. O_O Probably not. But I mean... I did write a lot of it. ^-^;;
