Update 12.
🕑 Added 2022-05-31 21:23:21 +0000 UTCChapter 9 is still coming along and I'm happy with it so far! On a personal note, my mental health when it comes to writing has been beyond terrible recently, but I'm still getting a lot of words written down, and the main thing is to enjoy it — which for the most part — I am despite all the insecurities.
Unfortunately (or maybe not, actually), I had to delete about 1.2k words because... well, new ideas, a bit of a plot change, major side character introduction further along in the story, so the beginning of chapter 9 I originally had planned was scrapped. Thankfully, I've put the words I've deleted into a document so I can always go back to them and see whether they'll fit in again somewhere else — but without it, there's still lots of drama going on, so it's fine. The section was also a huge bit where there weren't any choices, very plot-based, and I know that may be frustrating for some readers.
The plans I posted from the last update were to finish off the birthmark discussion scene which I have! I was sort of dreading to write it because I thought it'd be a long slog to get through, but it wasn't bad at all. I think it's pretty interesting and opens the MC to the supernatural world, and more about why they're a part of it, and the team gets to explain everything to them — so that's pretty cool.
After I finished that, I started the first RO x MC one on one scene which was also part of my plan. I've started with K's because it's the first one I came up with and is the most fresh. Overall, the one on one scenes have flirt options, friendship options, or just get to know the RO more on a personal level. I'm probably under halfway done with K's scene, there are various locations to visit, the chance to talk to some new people too so naturally there's a lot to write — but it's all happening.
I'll let you know when that scene's done.
Look out for more sneak peeks and there'll be a B drabble coming up on here too!
Cheers for your support, now especially.
Snippet:
"de la Renta, you've come for a rematch after I beat you in our last sparring session," she exclaims.
"You clearly have short-term memory because I won," K counters. "Anyway, no, I came to show $!{name} this place."

Its so wild to me that you feel so bad about your writing when it legit feels so nice to read ? It always gives me a comfy vibe of like, rain outside warm inside, a blanket and a hot cocoa. Its funny cause usually Golden and Dusk are not my scene as i personally prefer high fantasy than Modern but i deeply love the way you write and how it pulls me in. How tender and soft it feels, how even 'real and ugly' feelings hurt but feel so soft at the same time as if im being hugged through words. I hope one day you feel good about your writing and dont go to such low, I know imposter syndrome deeply sucks but' you're really, really good Mila :) it brings me joy everytime i read it, and im sincerely rooting for you ❤️ Hope you have a good week and dont be too hard on yourself !!
