I hate when my draft decides to post instead of saving as a draft.
Groans
I just wanted to edit it a tad and save but no Tumbler said post it instead and I had undo that.
It's a bit of a hassle but at least it's better than actually losing the whole document and having to start again from scratch.

As you might've seen or notice. I have finally finished the waking up at NRC prologue part for my children of laughter twst Au! :D
Which I have recently posted a few minutes ago under this post.
I honestly dunno how active I'll be on this blog in the near future, in terms of posting any more content here that is.
I'm just posting here whenever I finish writing anything I want to post like fanfics.
However writing fanfics will require inspiration or motivation to strike me first during my free/spare time.
I swear to Gawd
This is the third time and second time this morning.
Sighs
Let me repeatedly save my works in drafts as many times as I want without accidentally posting my wip before I'm ready.
The easiest way to find Sebek is to walk around the Night Raven campus, going "where's my Sebek?"
It elicits odd stares and plenty of snickers from the other students, but it gets the job done. You'll know when he's nearby. After repeating this phrase enough times and in multiple places around campus, you'll hear a familiar thundering cry.
"I am not your Sebek!"
The shout is eventually followed by the man himself. You can tell what direction he's in by the heavy stomps, thudding against the ground almost as loud as his voice. His frown is as sharp as his furrowed brows. The slight tinge of embarrassment colors his face.
"Human! How dare you..."
The familiar face makes you smile with joy. "There you are! There's my Sebek."
He falters. It's clear he has so much to say, but can't find the right words to get out first. They pile up in his mouth while he stammers. You fear you may have traumatized him until the verbal barrage bursts out like a dam.
"How dare you! You know I serve none other than the great heir to Briar Valley. To even imply that I am yours? A mere human's? Inconceivable! Your absurdity knows no bounds!"
He sounds as energetic as ever. You decide to interrupt the angry monologue before he really gets going.
"Sebek, I wanted to know if we're still having lunch together."
"To insult the very essence of my being! As if you..."
It takes a hot second for your inquiry to reach his ears, but when he catches it, the rambling drifts off. He grows oddly quiet. He balls his hands into fists and unclenches them several times in quick succession, testing the limits of his uniform gloves. This would already have delved into a physical fight if you were any other student.
Despite your inane actions, you're practically harmless. Any great guard should easily be able to ignore petty taunts. It's best to consider this a test. Sebek clears his throat.
"Of course we are. You didn't have to come find me just for that. I always keep my word." The redness of his ear tips peeking out from under his hair remind you of a Christmas tree.
"Great! Can't wait."
You stick out your hand for a parting high five. Sebek subverts expectations by grabbing your palm. His gloves are warm and a little sweaty after rushing to find you, and his grip is anything but soft in a boyish display of dominance.
"Do not do this again," he says. He's stern, but after that warning his voice drops to a normal level and he sounds almost gentle. "Just... text me, like a normal person. You have my number."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yumi gives tough girl vibes. Is very persistent and stubborn. She is determined to reach her goal of returning back to the magic less world and reunite with her family there. This causes tension and drama between Crewel and Yumi. Since Crewel is against her leaving Twisted Wonderland again. He just got her back after all.
Yumi contemplates spending Christmas without the family she grew fond of back in the magic less world.
Tis was late at night, a few days before Christmas.
The hearth of Ramshackle longue was alight with a warm glow.
Not small bugs or critters scurried about Ramshackles halls.
Grim was snoring up a storm in the prefect's bed.
Yumi the perfect herself was downstairs nursing a cup of hot coco while sitting on one of the couches in Ramshackle's longue near the furnace.
She sighed heavily.
She looks towards her phone in a grimace.
So many texts and Christmas invitations she had refused littered her text history.
Yumi looks away from her phone and sighs again.
'I wonder how mom and dad are doing, not to mention my siblings back at home'
Home...
What a funny word.
So many tried to help Yumi find a 'home' in twisted wonderland, but none satisfied her.
Yumi misses her home back at the magic less world she grew up more than any of her friends could offer her. Nothing could replace her family and strong feelings of belonging that she possessed back there.
Yumi looked back at her phone and flipped thru her messages and sighed once more.
Whether she liked it or not someone was too stubborn and persistent that she ended up giving in and promising to join them for Christmas.
It was Professor Crewel. Apparently, she was related to him by blood. Yumi was not looking forward to it, perhaps she should've given in to Aria's invitation. At least then she could've avoided her blood related family for Christmas. Worried that they are trying to tie her down into this world, one she is determined to leave for her family and friends back in the magic less world whom she missed so much.
Then again, perhaps it's a good reason to spend Christmas with Professor Crewel's family. For this Christmas may be the only one they will get to enjoy with her if Yumi's plans succeed.
It wasn't like Crewel and his family were unkind or bad people. So, it wouldn't be a terrible Christmas if she spent it with them this year.
Yumi sighed.
'I should stop thinking negatively about this and just enjoy Christmas with them regardless of whether I'm staying or leaving twisted wonderland later'
Yumi got up from the couch and went to put out the furnace fire before placing her empty cup in the sink and heading upstairs.
'I wonder how different Christmas will be for me the rest of the year it's already been a wild ride of a winter break:
Yumi smiled.
It wasn't the most pleasant pass few weeks with the whole ordeal at Scrabia that occurred. However, the party afterwards at Scrabia followed by the one held at Ramshackle was delightful.
It was sweet having her friends that came to her rescue from Scrabia stay by her side for a bit longer even after confirming the danger was already dealt with.
Yumi wasn't expecting to have a party at Ramshackle with so many ppl some who were supposed to be away all winter break.
Ace, Deuce, and Aria.
Aria's mother was also there, and they managed to convince Lilia to stay for a while after he gave Yumi a Christmas letter. Oh, and how could she forget Silver. Lilia invited him to join in the Ramshackle party. Those two apparently decided to stay at Diasomnia during the winter break.
Apparently, the ghosts had decorated the dorm a tad for the holidays while Yumi was at Scrabia. Along with tending to NRCs fire fairies. Ramshackle also got a feast, one that Grim demanded from Crowley before the winter break had started.
It was a wonderful winter break so far and it's not over yet with Professor Crewel coming over tomorrow morning to pick Yumi up. Winter break and celebrating Christmas was yet to end for her. Yumi started to look forward to it once more.
She also hoped and wished all her friends in both worlds along with her family back in the magic less world a very merry and wonderful Christmas.
Yumi made it to her room and patted the head of the snoring Grim among her pillows with a soft smile.
She was not leaving him behind for Christmas. She managed to convince the professor to let Grim tag along for the trip.
Yumi yawns and stretches before heading back to bed.
Yes, this Christmas was gonna be different for her, but it was gonna be a wonderful time and a memory to cherish forevermore regardless of her apprehension prior to tonight.
People have written a lot of touchy-feely pieces on this subject but I thought I’d get right to the heart of the matter
