Soooo. My subconscious last year made Bound in Time oddly connected The Waiting Queen Series. The waiting queen draft has a few blessings in it, and Aphrodite indirectly causes one noteable tether. Now I have to revisit alllllll the blessings I wrote last year to make sure I didn't subconsciously trap myself into connecting 3 potentially 4 different book series because of multiple blessings instead of Zephyrith. 😵‍💫 Blessings might end up changing some chapters in Bound in Time when I do a 2nd revision pass. Maybe I need to rethink divine blessings altogether and nix them from all books with gods in them.

Just hit my toughest pinch without my main source of income. I suppose I'll be door dashing until for awhile. My emergency fund is gone, and all I got left is my retirement funds. Ideas guys? Because my survival mode is killing my vibes of productivity.

I went from seriously could have laid down on ny floor staring at the ceiling to writing myself into He Who Fights With Monsters because it recalibrated my brain. 🤔 That was the weirdest mental health turn around ever. Who knew testing your favorite main character would make you feel better and give you energy.
Fanfiction for mental health????
I now have 3 familiars though, Serenoty a bl**d butterfly swarm familiar, Odessa [named after a character from Requiem of the Rising Flame] to be the doom essence familiar, starts off weapon like, and then Veil, a nother shadow of the Reaper like Shade.
I need to work on it more, because I was aiming more subliminal horror with my magic and I think I missed the goal🤔

As I'm ramping up more me content instead of just music, where I talk or analyze stuff or react to books. Still working on that editting thing🤔 would people be interested of the mental side of my life just talking about my struggles, the stuff I wasn’t aware of until I was. Not just to explain how I can easily end up making thousands of songs in no time, or how I can take one episode or 36 minute and end up expanding it into a 2.5 or 3 hour video that needs mass editing. Things like that? Again still working on the editing thing, which is why right now these videos are going to be free on patreon until I figure out how I want to edit. But I do analyze my mindset alot, mainly in hindsight, but if there's people interested in me talking about myself to understand my channel or my writing more. It is an option. Considering I do explore mental health in my fantasy writing and my music.

Wish it was easier to find information I need. SEOs really suck on all playforms when you search generically because you don't know the right thing search. Example: interview tips for the accounting field especially if your last job made you more analyst, and the leader sucked 😒 no self help, helps with that and I've been feeling my way long. I'm passing more phone interviews but now... ... now I'm failing the in person interview. And I have a feeling I look too young and struggle with the more technical questions because my last job had me touching peripherally all the different fields of accounting in the private sector.
If I gave you, my community an image of what I looked like would you be able to guess my age without searching the videos in which I talk about myself? I shell shock every guest at the hotel I work when I tell them my age. 😐

Before I allow myself editing time, watch me tear apart this fictional story that claims educational and historical purposes with "credible sources". I'm not messing around. 2.5 hours nitpicking a 36 minute video. I gave myself a headache, so time to relax before I edit it down to YouTube digestible content. I seriously don't know how to make short content.

Channel Update
Disclaimer: This post discusses current events, politics, and AI narration. It is not intended to promote hate, validate anger, or argue that AI should be removed from creative or educational spaces. The focus is ethical framing, accuracy, and media literacy. And I take ethics extremely seriously.

I’m putting some of my creative projects—like Escaping Responsibly—on a brief hold.
I’m a writer. I write fantasy. I deliberately use psychology and philosophy as tools, and I actively study both. I know exactly what narrative framing sounds like when it’s done intentionally—and that’s why what I’ve been seeing lately is bothering me enough to address it publicly.
I’ve come across a growing number of AI-narrated “current events” videos—especially around ICE—that are edited and narrated in a way that mirrors fiction storytelling. Repetition, looping timelines, dramatic phrasing. These are techniques I let slide in fantasy narration. They do not belong in real-world events involving real people.
Most viewers aren’t going to rewind, pause, or fact-check. They’re going to listen passively. And when current events are framed like storytime, anger festers instead of understanding. The news media already does enough of that.
I don’t want to give channels like this my time by dismantling their narratives—but ethically, it matters. Free speech doesn’t absolve creators of responsibility. If something claims to be educational, it needs to actually educate, not provoke or sensationalize.
Disclaimers also belong in the video, not buried in descriptions most people never read—especially if the events are real and unfolding.
This isn’t about being anti-AI. I’m fine with AI narration when it’s paired with footage, analysis, and human editorial care. What I’m pushing back against is low-effort narration uploaded without proper editing or accountability.
I’m ADHD. I’m transparent about the fact that I hate editing—and that’s exactly why I’m careful about what I publish. Transparency matters. Editing matters. How you frame reality matters.
I don’t know when this series will start. Before I dismantle anything, I’ll be fact-checking every story that set off my writer’s instincts. To break down and educate responsibly, I first have to confirm what’s true—and then deliberately script how to explain where the narration, structure, or framing goes wrong.
This isn’t about giving these channels more views. It’s about accountability. Because when good writers—people who understand narrative mechanics—find content like this, it’s only a matter of time before it gets questioned.
I never imagined I’d be triggered by current events sounding like fantasy disguised as education. But here we are.
Real life isn’t fiction. We shouldn’t treat it like it is.

While starting Curse of Time’s Perception, I realized Bound in Time needed revisions—and those revisions have already begun.

Draft 1 of Bound in Time is free on my Patreon, and I’m currently working through revisions with the goal of keeping the heart of the original intact. This will be the first book I fully publish, and I need outside eyes to help catch what I can’t see on my own.

If you want to read the original draft and later compare it to the revised version, now is the ideal time to jump in. Drafts will remain free; revisions will have a small paywall.

I appreciate anyone who wants to be part of the process and help shape the final form of this book.

Sooooo… Danny Motta just got my analysis brain hijacked and dragged into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and I blame him entirely. 😵‍💫

For context: this is directly responding to Danny’s short, where he asks why we don’t see Christian panic or religious-level wars in the MCU when Thor, Loki, and other mythological “gods” openly exist.

I genuinely had not questioned this until Danny made a compelling argument.

I’ve only seen the movies. I’ve never read the comics (and honestly forgot they existed for a minute). So yes—Seraphina Stardust, who usually talks One Piece, anime, and mental health, is suddenly thinking about MCU theology. Unexpected detour unlocked.

Here’s what snapped my brain into theory mode:

In most movies, when aliens or overwhelmingly powerful beings show up, humanity’s response is predictable:
• panic
• militarization
• containment
• experimentation
• escalation
• “how do we copy their power or kill them before they kill us?”

That’s the standard sci-fi playbook.

And yet in the MCU, we don’t see that as the dominant response.

Despite literal gods, sorcerers, super-soldiers, and reality-warpers:
• we don’t see mass Christian meltdowns
• we don’t see religious wars
• we don’t see society defaulting to “false gods, destroy them”
• governments attempt control, but mostly through faux or surface-level measures

Which is… not how humans usually behave.

Then Danny introduced me to a comics concept I didn’t know about: The One Above All.

That’s where my nascent working theory kicked in.

My theory:
Earth has a kind of glamour over it. Not mind control. Not obedience. More like a perceptual dampener.

Something that subtly reduces humanity’s worst first-response—panic, aggression, holy war—when beings far beyond Earth technology inevitably appear.

Not to erase religion.
Not to override free will.
Not to make humans compliant.

Just enough to buy processing time.

Long enough for humanity to shift from “they’re here to take over” to “they’re also stopping things we cannot.”

This would explain why MCU humanity defaults to political negotiation and survival logic instead of immediate theological collapse or total war—especially when these beings cannot be contained by Earth tech, but can protect Earth from threats we cannot stop ourselves.

Tony Stark, arguably, is the exception—and he learns the hard way that brute-force escalation doesn’t work in this universe.

This glamour would have to be ancient. Pre-historic. Long before the first comic ever existed.

And Marvel will never confirm this. Why?
Because the moment you do, you’re forced to interrogate free will and agency across the multiverse… and that’s a philosophical bear trap for a cinematic franchise.

So this remains my 0.000000000001% prequel that will never be written or acknowledged.

Danny—this is your fault. 😈
And yes… I may have just unlocked accidental MCU theory content.
