Hey! I know my activity has steadily been declining for the past few years, and I am sorry about that. I don’t really know what I’m going to do with this blog to be quite honest. I have too many good memories to abandon it, and I’m not quite finished with it yet. Running this blog has become more of a chore than something I enjoy anymore.
But don’t worry! I still love the Amporas, and I still love Homestuck! I’m just more active on a different Ampora appreciation blog!
@lovethemamporas Is my other Ampora-centric Homestuck blog, and I post there much more frequently. I still do imagines and share headcanons and stuff like that, but I feel much less pressure to update there. If you still want to see things that I post and like, you are more than welcome to join me over there!
Thank you guys so much for your support over the years. I’m not done, but I don’t know when I’ll be able to enjoy posting on this blog.
Love you guys!

vantas-symphony sent: I've been following this blog for quite a while, and might I say that it's helped me tremendously through my hard times. It's nice to imagine Dualscar comforting me, thank you so much!(Of course! Dualscar and the Amporas helped me through some of my darkest times too. This blog has been a great comfort to me over the years, and I’m very glad that I’ve been able to help you and others in the past. I don’t intend on quitting writing for Dualscar or the others, I’m just moving over to another blog. Thank you so much for this kind message dear!

grimdarkpumpkin sent: Hey, I've been going through your blog, and I gotta say, its nice to see someone not butcher the Ampora trolls' personalities. You're doing an amazing job, keep it up!(Thank you so much! I do my darnedest to portray the Amporas in a fair light, it’s my biggest pet peeve when the Amporas are portrayed as weak or fragile. I’ve hated it since I first joined the fandom to be honest.
I’m glad I can make you happy! Even with my inactivity. :’) )
Imagine working in a secret government facility as a scientist. The army has brought in an unknown being and plans to learn from it. It is giant and humanoid, with deep grey skin and gigantic golden horns. Two jagged scars marr it’s face, but it doesn’t make it any less beautiful. It must live in water, or else it will suffocate. Through shenanigans, you and the unknown creature grow to get to know one another and even fall in love. When the army cannot learn anymore from keeping it alive, they plan on dissecting it. You and your friends plan an elaborate escape, and rescue the alien man from dire circumstances. You two live happily ever after on a secluded island, living a peaceful life on the beautiful sands.
(A few years ago I wrote a short little fanfic series based on an imagine someone sent in. Here’s a post with all the links to each chapter! It’s older, so it’s not my best work. There’s lots of grammatical errors, but I don’t feel like going through it and fixing it all. So here it is in all my teenage years glory!)

Imagine being a single parent using a dating app for the first time in a while. Your child is getting older and growing just a little more distant: hanging out with their parent isn’t cool anymore. Their quick submergence into puberty and early teen years is making you feel a little lonely, so you decide to get back into the dating scene.
You’ve been trying out a few apps here and there, and even had a few dates with some nice people! But none of your efforts have come to anything fruitful. You decide to give it one more try.
You see his profile and are immediately stricken with how handsome he is. He’s new to the site but you can tell he’s already popular just by the kind of photos he has. No one that handsome is going lonely. You’re a little intimidated by his dark eyes. So brown they’re almost purple. His hair is curly and black and cut into a very fashionable style. He’s always wearing suits or button-down shirts in his photos and they look like they’re worth more than your rent and all of your bills combined.
But in the pictures with his kids (two sons about your child’s age) his eyes are kind, his face open and warm. You can tell that he loves them very much. It makes your heart melt to see them like that, and over the days of your deliberation to swipe right or not, you try not to imagine the two of you on dates or your kids playing in the yard. You wonder what his voice sounds like, whether his hands are rough or smooth, if his accent is as thick as the rest of him.
It’s when you’re distracted, laying in bed and brousing the app, when you swipe right. Your heart studders and beats in your chest and you feel wide awake. You can’t help but stare at the screen, frightened and anxious. When you get the notification that you two have matched and that he super liked you of all people, you feel like fainting.
You panic, jumping up from the bed and running around your bedroom. You decide to try and calm down, setting your phone on your dresser, vigerously trying not to freak out.
Ten minutes pass and your heart has finally settled when you get a message notification. It’s only ten at night but you’re wondering at what could be messaging you right now. You try not to think about the handsome guy, instead thinking it was your sibling or an app notification.
It’s a notification from the dating app… Handsome Man has sent you a message! Your hands are shaking, your mind boggling. You open the message and it’s a simple greeting, but the words course through you like fire. You try to play it cool, giving yourself ten minutes or so to answer him. Too soon looks clingy, and too late looks uninterested. You try your best to play it cool…
To your surprise, you two develop a close correspondence over the next few weeks. You message each other every day and talk about everything. After the second week of talking, he admits to really liking you. He’d liked your profile from his first use of the app and was very nervous to come across as odd or weird or clingy. He’s sweet and unfamiliar with the dating app.
After a few months of talking like this, you two finally have the free time to go on your first real date. Phone calls once a week and sending each other silly pictures and selfies (his were at odd angles and in bad lighting at first. You loved them anyway.) didn’t count as a real date and he let you pick the time and place for your first date.
You were, understandably, so very nervous. You two had been talking for six months. Calling on the phone and sending selfies for five. His voice was deep and honey-like, thick and smoky with a Cuban accent. You knew he would be just as nervous as you, but you felt as if it were the first date you had ever gone on. Like you were a silly young teen again about to go out with the person you had a huge crush on.
You settled for a nice restaurant by the boardwalk. It was a mix of Itallian and Japanese cuisine and was your favorite place for special occasions. At the end of the boardwalk was a little carnival theme park; you had spent many a birthday there with your child. These were your favorite places to go and you hope he’d like them too.
You dress in your best outfit, fussing with your clothes and hair as you wait for him to pick you up. You’ve already made sure the house is spotless and are trying to smooth your kid’s hair for the third time that night, when you hear a knock on the door. Your heart thunders in your chest, and the butterflies move from your stomach to your throat.
You walk over to the front door and peek through the curtain and he smiles and waves at you. The blush on his handsome face reveals just how nervous he is too. The butterflies are calmed slightly and you step back to let him in.
(would you guys like a part two of this? please let me know what you think! uwu)
