Okay, so I got really excited and have to type it down. Nyerk.

If you encounter some weird typos around, it's most likely because I wrote this digitally into notepad.


( The Aventador, the people at large believe, is a moving shadow sent down by God to punish those men cannot punish. )

Because there are so many ways I can begin this story.

This is the third version of the opening, the first being the one written in Scrivener and the second one handwritten and still have to be typed.

( There was a legend. )

Following fics have been updated and archived to AO3:

Next on the list: the rest of the Hunger series and Isle Fractions.

Don't you find it annoying when supposedly trusted people copied your resume for "format purposes" only to copy the entire thing and just change names? And then probably spread it for all to use? Bitches, you think I can't spot who leeched off from me? Go and scramble around and worry your arses off. I'll just sit here with my tea and enjoy my vacation.

Also: Malaysia+HK trip is a go and only found out about it now. Grah.

Now, have a poem inspired by recent events in the annoying world we call university.


COPY PASTE

scratch scratch
glance left
then right
check
clear

self-confidence always abundant
it never runs out, no
not for them, never
for the spineless, the stupid
the senseless, the stunted
they peek, they leech, they suck
then they disappear and play pretend
Who’s better now? Who’s smarter now?
No one, none at all
We’re all fools fooling one another
making fools out of each other
until someone finds an err
and claims ownership

“Oh, dear.”
Pattern, schmattern
be a worm, don’t squirm
just lie still, wait for the fire
Bang bang! Burn!
Oops.

Because I have been so productive the past four days, I thought I should write a poem to complete the cycle. I drew, I wrote, I plotted a new story, I composed some stuffs and made a piano arrangement of Shake It Out. I've never been this productive since I was working on Mirage two years ago.

So, have a poem.


Over and Again
How much does it take
To breathe
To think
To live?

All the choices you made
So painful
So hard
Can’t decide

Caught in the storm
In a landslide
Somewhere in between
Stuck, lost, forgotten

Where does this story end
This road goes on
And on until it stops
Unwinding and unknown

It takes so much
To breathe
To think
To live

All the choices were
So painful
So hard
Couldn’t decide

Have no shelter
Without a stand
Stranded in between
Hurt, suffer, survive

The road ends here
Just a little more
And soon all
Will be over

I can't remember tne last time I wrote a poem.

Recently, K've just opened up about my past issue regarding suicide and depression. It opened some scars, but it also brought closure for me. So. Have something.

I'm alright now though. I've recovered nicely, I think.


Stuck

A moment of silence
Relapse
Recover

Might not be much
It matters
Think again

Hurt
Pain
Wound
Scar
Permanent

What now

Some broken
Frozen

Just a soul
Wandering
Lost
Forgotten

Forever

Remember the archiving and the editing? Well, here I go again. Isle Fractions already has its backstory written and all. The only problem is that I don't know what to do afterwards.

Also, is there any Scrivener user out there? I'm currently using the trial version, and I'm very tempted to buy the full program while I still have my promo code from winning Nano.


Isle Fractions now archived at AO3.

Spoilers for future chapters of Stockholm.

Zachary Returns to Russia, featuring Zide Zachary with Seiran. This is actually a few chapters away from Chapter 5.

This was originally planned as early as October for the Stockholm Anniversary fic, but I never got to finish it, and by the time I was writing Stockholm Nano, the plotline has already changed a lot that the anniversary fic is no longer canon compliant. Hence, this.
