current image upload status
- using tumblr as a host -> tumblr has a photo upload limit??? a bust.
- imgur: image uploads continuously failing
- catbox: good and simple but unfortunately not ideal since certain regions are banned from viewing images hosted here

TUMBLR DOESN'T LET YOU UPLOAD MORE THAN 30 IMAGES PER POST?????????????????????? good god... i have no idea where to upload now. maybe i will just drop the google docs link 😭 i guess i could upload the writeup on ao3 but it seems lame putting a non-fic on there
i think it’s nice that even though iris referred selene to huanyu in a “well i already left and don’t intend to go back anyways” manner, she does come back as a means of starting over—both her career and with her girlfriend [the end i think that’s all i got]
given that iris put her family first when she turned down the grad program to enter the workforce ASAP, her quitting to work at huanyu might have been the first time she put herself first. so even though iris’ intentions were iffy, selene technically did save her
(just gushing now) i also like how much they impacted each other’s lives. if it weren’t for iris’ huanyu referral, selene might have left the country to study overseas. and if they hadn’t dated (and broken up) iris wouldn’t have quit the company she hated and returned to huanyu
also iris’ entire story has the unexpected theme of becoming equals…not just iris letting go of her perfect xuejie image, but also iris working her way up from nothing to live a more stable life and selene making sure they’re both financially and emotionally secure
iris feeling burnt out/under-appreciated as a caretaker = selene becoming even more adept at reading iris + showering her with praise and affection + making sure she’s fed (lol)
selene wanting iris to be communicative and vulnerable = the epilogue is about iris working on that 😂
thinking about the conflict between iris and selene in the base route (how they treated each other vs what they actually needed from each other) and how they both took that feedback and actually worked on it by the epilogue
