Sorry For Being Annoying (no Need To Answer If You Don’t Want To) But Now That Your Exams Are Over,

Behold the three paragraphs that took me forever to edit:

The editing history for this tiny section is honestly embarrassing…

if you don’t mind sharing, what are you studying?

I'm studying political science! It's very essay heavy (I've lost count of how many I've written this year alone ;-;) and there's a lot of reading theories and legal journals involved...BUT I wouldn't want to study anything else :D I find this field super interesting, even though I might lose sleep trying to get through my workload lol

Ohhhhh political science? That’s so cool! I actually thought you were a literature major lol. To be honest, I was planning to choose it too, but after seeing my sister struggle with it—she’s majoring in it as well—I changed my mind. I was like, Nah bro, I’m not doing that ദ്ദി(ㅠ﹏ㅠ) But she’s really passionate about it, so at least that’s good for her. It is a really interesting major though.

Also, I hope you don’t overwork yourself—make sure to take breaks. Take care!

⸜(｡˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝♡

Literature was my first option! But after I discovered this field, I decided to go down this path instead.

Sending positive vibes to your sister because I know the struggle lol

I'm done for now though! I'll be sure to make the best of this break :D

Take care too <3!

Want me to make it more chaotic or more soft?

HI!! You're so incredibly sweet!! Seeing this in my inbox made my day :')

Sending you all the best too and ty for being here <3!!

(YES I have a dog!! He's my angel and my companion in my writing endeavors (aka he curls up in my bed and watches me cycle through endless drafts for hours lol))

!! Since Evanescence is on the cards now, I’m going to definitely recommend “Lithium” by her from forever and a half ago!!!! 😄 it’s so strange to me that Dazai as a PIRATE refuses to drink and so clearly looks down upon opium, so I’ve got a horrible sinking feeling that there’s a horrific substance abuse history in his past 💔 in some form or the other. Still can’t tell if it’s directly related to him, or has something to do with Oda… aahhh I’m so excited to find out!! 💜

Ah we'll just have to wait and see...but you're right to think there's a linkage there.

Do you know around when the next update will be out?

Sooo I was planning to have it out by the end of this week (!!) but then I got ambushed by exams and reports that have sadly taken my free time away for the millionth time. I should have some breathing room after this week (let’s commence a prayer circle 🕯️) so maybe sometime next week? I’m aiming for a weekend update at least (not this weekend though 😔).

Sorry, I promise I’m trying to get my shit together. If anything, I might cut the chapter in half (since it’s a loooong one) and update that first!

Shamelessly stealing from OPLA (but of course, One Piece is one of THE pirate stories out there) but a song for your playlist: My Sails are Set by Aurora. Probably Chuuya pov!

Yeess! I love her songs and was actually looking into them for the playlist yet somehow I overlooked this amazing one?? Thank you!

Hi honey! Are you doing okay? You’ve been very quiet the past couple weeks! I hope you’re fine! xx

Hi! So sorry I’ve been away for a while…

Everything just came at me again (and then it just didn’t stop lol) so I couldn’t be as active on here. I’m hoping to be back soon tho!

Also, sorry for being so behind on my inbox. I appreciate all the asks and I promise I’ll get back to you guys!

<3

This is so unbelievably stunning!! I love everything about it! Thank you so much for creating this and for being one of my readers 💕

Hi again!! To be completely honest.. not so great but I hope to feel better soon! Regarding the fic, the update is in its editing stage but I want to be in the right headspace to finish it.
