A/N: ima slightly write it off my experience of adhd but remember that everyoneās adhd experience is different! š«¶š¾
Tom Riddle
You two are a good opposite duo š«¶š¾
He loves how you rant to him about anything really. Heās listening while somehow reading the book he has
When someone tries to tell you to be quiet. Immediately the room feels a chill.
He may not be pda like you, but he shows his caring side in a different light.
Mattheo Riddle
You like shenanigans, he does shenanigans.
You two are a match made in heaven! āŗļøš honestly when you stim happily and tap your fingers around. Immediately he shows the same exact energy
He knows you canāt focus well, and shit he canāt either sometimes.
But he will always help you!
Theodore Nott
Is always interested in what you like
Could easily be distracted with you, as long as it doesnāt happen in class
He does find it creepy when you just stand there not blinking..for a long time.
Your sudden burst of energy always gives him serotonin.
Lorenzo Berkshire
Always gives you his hand when you need something to occupy yourself.
Your āout of no where mood swingsā either of your period or just the random switch confuse him. But he is supportive.
He understands how you space out a lot and just think about things. He finds it adorable.
He understands how you canāt seem to focus. So he teaches you in a way that you are able to focus and memorize other than give up on you like idiots would.
Fix (warning: substances, abuse, enslavement, self harm, suicidal ideation)
Pile up my substances
I want control
Obey my captors
The same old, same old
Countless masters I serve
Superficial reality
Rinse and repeat
Lies I tell myself to fall asleep
Cut up my willpower
And sell it to a fallacy
I want my life back
Tell me itās not too late
Donāt want to say goodbye
Sick of paying for mistakes
Hallway (warning: horror, death, blood, gore, violence)
The PA system boomed
āTheyāve made it into the school.
Lock and barricade your current room.ā
I was in the hallway.
A stampede of bodies arose,
Living turning to dead to decompose.
Frightened and running through pools,
Slipping on blood in the hallway.
Beings crammed behind doors,
Quasi train cars as hopeful shields from doom.
Fearful faces cowered from windows,
Hiding from monsters in the hallway.
The growls approached.
The claws made their presence known.
Limbs and organs covered the floor.
The monsters were hungry for more than those in the hallway.
Blood-Singed II (warning: addiction, body horror)
Burnt red wine
Slinking down to slender fingertips
As sweet blood
With bite.
Wholly tremoring
With a fragile gaze
And blurred existence.
Lovers
Velvet blood coursing through intertwining paths
Supported by ebony pillars of bone
Supporting us in dance.
Your tender flesh, your cradling warmth
Clasped around my waist
Like it was made for your hands to rest on.
My limbs hung over your shoulders, around your neck
Like a garland made to grace your collar,
Pull you closer,
Hold us together, lovers.
Night Choir
Night choir,
Songstresses of the dark,
Serenade with your warm melodies.
Soothing screech,
Piercing hum,
Smooth vibrato,
Harmonize with the lightsā
Twinkle, fade.
Pink Kitchen Table (warning: illness)
The Advent wreath is erect but cockeyed; it wasnāt lit during the recent season. The pink kitchen table is littered with masks, bottles, medical notes; doctorly linguistics beside Latin religiousness. Sundays smell like medicines instead of makko-powdered ether, rosaries in the windowsill with therapy aids. Images of Christ surround a rented bed, a vessel for healing holding a vessel, weakened.
Advent wreath lit,
Pink kitchen table littered,
Latin Sundays smell like makko.
Rosaries with images of Christ surround,
A vessel for healing.
Advent wreath lit pink
Kitchen table like Sundaysā
Vessel for healing.
18 (warning: suicidal thoughts)
Blow out the candles, darling.
You might make it to 18.
After all the nights crying
Through gritted teeth.
After the day you thought
That if you killed yourself
Their lives would be more pleasing.
Congratulations, darling.
Youāre almost 18.
A Prayer of Joy āļø
May joy come with the same ease
As your mother tongue,
Something learned so young
Itās almost intrinsic.
May the sun and rain both
Remind you of our true home,
Shining and pelting down from
Where some earlier folks referred to as Heaven.
May God bless you
For all of your days. Amen.
Trying to write decent erotica is crazy, like my notes for editing better not fall into the wrong hands. And itās funny because when people see me handwriting notes while looking my laptop they always think Iām studying. I need to go back to sci fi.
Have I written every day since I made my schedule?
Yes.
Did on work on any of my wips?
No.
Did I start a new story and get way too invested?
Hell yeah!
I just made an actual schedule for what writing projects I should focus on each day for the next week. So that way I can hopefully make progress on my fic and on revising poems for my slam team at the same time. Weāll see if the adhd cooperates.
In my main wip, I donāt think thereās even a moment where Everyone is happy. Like if Iām in a good mood I might actually add a happy ending, or at least a nice little epilogue.
My characters are so happy right now :) Should I... ruin... everything?

And you know what, weāre just not gonna talk about how many wips Iāve started lately. Weāre just not gonna do it. And Iām definitely not coming up with world building for another one based on a tiktok.
I feel called out and I donāt like it
Hey, stop scrolling and start writing. The book ain't gonna write itself.
So my health, both mentally and physically, is a hot mess. But at least Iāve been writing
With me itās always raising an eyebrow and/or nodding. Which results in my characters looking like smug bobble heads in every conversation
me while writing: ah yes, this character should do this, it feels so natural with what they're saying
me while editing: why the FUCK does he lean on the doorway SEVENTEEN TIMES IN THIS CHAPTER
And, unfortunately, yet again Iām convincing myself a dozen long writing projects is manageable
People who tell you not to write in bed are liars. They also should try writing on their phone.
No seriously, writing āIā and āmeā is so gross! Like do I switch to third person so I donāt fight nausea every sentence?
So I always write from third person, largely because I tend to write multiple POVs. Only, for my new wip, Iām trying to use first person. I donāt switch POVs. I also want the story to feel like the character is telling it to the reader. But I keep switching to second person. And a part of me is like, fuck it, just write in second person, but I know a lot of people hate it. Anyways, this draft is about to be me switching back and forth constantly.
Ok this book idea Iāve started drafting, I have no idea whatās gonna happen. Like I have vibes, a bit of world building, backstory, and three characters I barely know. Iām just gonna let the plot find me I guess
So right now I have 9 wips (well, and 2 other ideas that Iāll come back to eventually).
4 of the wips are fanfiction. Because I donāt always finish things, I havenāt posted them yet, but one is close to posting level, probably in the next few weeks if I have time.
3 of the other wips are all different books in the same series that I know for sure I want to publish one day. (Iām just taking my time with it because I need to sort my life out before Iām able to dedicate time, money, and energy into publication)
1 wip I barely ever touch. It will be a series as well and Iāll get to it after the other series.
The last wip is one Iāve had mixed feelings about since I had the idea.
But today I had another idea, that would involve getting rid of the last wip to use the world building and one of the characters.
My life is still a mess, so publishing wonāt happen any time soon, but thereās a part of me that wants to abandon my fanfics and just write original stories. Iāll just have to be okay knowing nobody will read them anytime soon.
I opened my asks so if you want to bounce writing thoughts off another person, you can.
But just so you know, my policy in life is that if I don't know what to say, I don't say anything, so I won't have a response for everything. I'm just a guy
Nothing like spending the night somewhere because of the snow, only I canāt sleep and my laptopās at home so now Iām writing on my phone while my friends cat claws my shoulder
Being a writer is wild, because Iām really sitting here, contemplating how much I should break this man, with a smile.
The worst is when you want to write, know what to work on, have time to write, and are too depressed to move. Thatās the hell Iām burning in.
I love the notes I gave myself during my first draft. I think one of my favorites is: we need to standardize pet names.
When youāre ablaze with inspiration and canāt pick a creative hobby to focus on.
I hate to break it to you, but they were right. You really do just have to finish that first draft. It can be a hot mess, but you canāt clean up a room that doesnāt exist
