Russ' Updates #039: Opening July







Hello, Darlings! It's nearly July! 

"It almost is. And speaking of July-"

No spoilers yet, sweetie. ;D

Anyway, it's definitely almost July and do you know what that means? Aside from a new Featured Character for this month (hint: it's still someone from the Equiverse), July means Rothie's Blogsary Celebration! They actually start today, and if you wanna check out what's going on over at Carmine, you can go over here and see it for yourselves. Please do support her for the entire month of July as she celebrates her third year of blogging~

Also, yesterday was a certain someone's birthday...and I almost forgot...

"I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU."

I'M SORRY PETERS HUHU FORGIVE ME. I'll post something to make up for it huhu 

With July around the corner, expect the start of blogsary teasers from my side~ I'm really excited for the blogsary! I'm like...60% done with the graphic challenges (since I'll be doing the writing challenges on the day itself hehe) and I'm going to start doing the countdown this week. 

Postwise, the Aesthetic series is still ongoing! Here are this week's planned posts~

Moving: An OTP Short







New York City
United States of America
June 2119


After a certain amount of time, numerous overtime shifts, and a lot of persevering, Ansel and Elena were finally able to purchase their own apartment in the less shady side of New York.

The process of choosing an apartment itself took a long time – there were many things to consider. Ansel wanted a lot of storage space, Elena didn’t want a lot of noise from the outside, Ansel wanted nice heating, and Elena wanted to be sure that the kitchen could hold Ansel’s cooking appliances and Elena’s baking ones.

Eventually, the search came to an end. It was their eighth hunt and at that point, Ansel was frustrated. Searching took so long that he wanted to ask Elena to move in with him; despite how convenient that sounded, he knew deep down that it would pose a lot of problems starting from space alone.

They had no choice – the search had to go on.

However, Mother Fate had mercy on the young couple and granted them the apartment on their eighth trip out.

“This is the eighth apartment,” Ansel groaned. Elena patted him as they walked up the stairs, soon pinching his cheek after. “If this one has shitty ventilation, I’m out and asking Marion if we can move in above her floor. It’s the closest thing to something decent.”

“That would mean hearing Marion and Kyle’s late night conversations,” Elena reminded, and Ansel paled. He swore quietly under his breath much after.

Eventually, the two met the person in charge and proceeded to let them inside. He switched on the lights. Elena waited for Ansel’s disappointed sigh. When none came, she looked up at him only to see the male furrowing his brows.

Root: A FC/UC Short

Morana refused to look away from the piercing eyes of Vito. “She asked me to do it. I was just following orders,” she answered coldly. “And it was what she wanted. Are you trying to tell me that she actually hated the idea?”

“I’m trying to tell you that it was wrong!” Vito exploded. His eyes gave a glint, “It was a stupid idea in the first place! What kind of – who would want to do that to themselves, anyway? Where’s the joy in living if you’re just…if you’re not even there at all?”

“I wouldn’t expect you to understand.” Morana lifted a hand and the doors began to close. “Please get out.” Yet Vito stood his ground and the Messenger of Death inhaled sharply at her sibling’s hardheadedness. “Vito. I’m asking you to get out,” she hissed. “You don’t know what’s happening. You don’t know what kind of danger you’re in!”

“What happened to her?!” Vito demanded. He took another step inside and Morana cursed, proceeding to mutter something under her breath while pointing at Vito. Immediately did the male stop and his golden eyes widened; the Messenger of Life attempted to move yet found himself unable to. Morana approached him with dark eyes, her hands glowing and pulsing with a dark color. “Morana, please–”

“Please get out, brother,” Morana whispered. With a wave of her hand, she sent her Twin flying out of the room. Vito sent her a shocked look and he attempted to race back inside, but the doors closed.

And only Morana would be able to open them. Vito stood by the black door dejectedly, his hand meeting the cold surface.

He didn’t understand.

Russ' Updates #038: Closing June







Hello, Darlings! <3 

(Edit: Holy shit, thank you for 16,000 views! <3)
June is soon coming to an end - I mean there's roughly a week left until June ends and July comes to take its place. Plus holy shit, the blogsary is coming up and I am incredibly excited for that. :D

"She already has a lot done when it comes to the preparations."
Speaking of July, Rothie is going to celebrate her third blogsary soon! Make sure to support her for the whole month of July as she also has a lot planned. ;) Additionally, she has officially opened her Instagram shop, where she'll be selling her books as well as an assortment of other items. Check it out here! (Note: this shop is only open to those within the Philippines.)

For this week, nothing much is happening, as usual. I'll still be posting my usual shorts and graphics, while at the same time, preparing for my blogsary this coming August. From this point on, the Aesthetic posts might be a one-per-week kind of thing, as I need to get to know the Transcendence characters a little bit more. 

Crea's time is slowly coming to and end! I'll do my best to post a graphic and a short for her to officially close June next Tuesday.
