i love the sbassa-verse b/c i can take the natural “why don’t they just TALK TO EACH OTHER” impulse and then show endless scenes in which people talking to each other has not made things better and in fact has made things worse

the fact that i think that the reason that i haven't been making the kind of progress that i want on my WIP might boil down to "i am now properly medicated and therefore find it difficult to write about sad trans people, which i need to do in order to get to the parts where i can write about happy trans people"

coming to the slow realization that i can't make an "x-gender" joke about hide in so beautiful and so stubbornly alive because the band x japan does not exist in this verse. i may be drafting something in the future to rectify this.

after the Absolute Hell that has been trying to wrangle the splintered silver timeline into shape i have decided that so beautiful and so stubbornly alive (the hayashi hitomiverse has a name now!) will take place unmoored in natural time. i will not waste myself worrying about years and ages other than "there is some age-related fuckery going on with the main characters" and "this work does not take place in CURRENT_YEAR"

i am Tired piglet, i am Tired. I have had to wrangle a timeline taking place over 4,000/1,000 years of Earth's history (depending on how you count) and i have dyscalculia, i deserve a Break.

having trouble with conversation in translation (the New Fic which is a pretty girl prequel) because while pretty girl had a lot of subtext and so does conversation in translation, and both of these fics have the same Point (hayashi yoshiki is a deeply closeted transgender woman), i feel like in pretty girl the subtext wasn't that Point, it was more the specific details of how exactly the interplay of internalized transmisogyny/severe physical dysphoria Works in conjunction with each other

but in conversation in translation, the entire Point of "hayashi yoshiki is a deeply closeted transgender woman" IS the subtext that plays off of the text of hide's whole Thing and the interplay of their own Issues forms the Point of the fic, except that if you don't get the point of "hayashi yoshiki is a deeply closeted transgender woman" then the whole fic just looks like yoshiki being and asshole to hide for no reason which is. not the point.

i think what i'm worried about is cis people. when i was writing pretty girl i didn't think about how cis people would perceive the fic or think about it or respond to it at all, so the fact that all of the responses on the fic that i got were from cis people was Weird because i wasn't thinking about that at all!

i guess i'm saying that what i really need to do is to try and forget about the existence of cis people.

that awkward feeling when you plot out two stories that both feature t4t gay triads and then you realize that they're basically the same relationship

you have it being a triad between two binary trans people of the same gender with at third nb member who has the same ASAB as their partners

you have person a- a gay trans person who has a very masculine gender presentation who's the most outwardly normal of the group

you have person b- a loud flamboyant m-spec genderqueer person with dyed hair who uses humor as a coping mechanism to distract from their many Issues and they also came to trans identity with much less fuss than their partners

and you have person c- a very femme blond(e) who wears their Issues on their sleeve, chief among these Issues being a deep-seated sense of self-loathing over their transness

*me, begging at the feet of the hayashi hitomiverse!sugizo* please ma'am please just give me your fucking name, it doesn't have to be fancy, it just has to be better than "sugi" because i can't keep calling you that if we're going to publish this goddamn fic

i want to crosspost pretty girl to [community profile] vkyaoi.

cons: depending on how you define "yaoi", pretty girl either contains very little yaoi or no yaoi at all.

pros: i just want people to read what i wrote and tell me nice things about it.
