I Appreciate You.
Added 2025-06-08 11:48:03 +0000 UTCI know this is a rather impromptu message, but I'd like to address this.
In the beginning, my audios were meant to fulfil certain tropes and stereotypes because that's what was popular, and it's what I believed I needed to do for engagement, almost like ticking off a list of what personality traits a character is supposed to have. However, as the years have gone by, I've been more comfortable with exploring different themes—particularly making both characters and listeners feel more human.
Of course, with a community that spans the globe with various backgrounds, beliefs, and upbringings, ideologies will vary widely. Each of you will experience my audios differently, whether that be reacting, or relating, or feeling, or challenging. Some concepts I utilise can also be divisive and delicate, and I know that some won't vibe with everyone. They never will.
Still, I want to thank you all for your comments. I read all of them. All the discussions. I think one of the most gratifying things about making stories in general is the discourse that comes out of it, and the diverse opinions that are formed from your own perspectives. It allows me to integrate that into future stories because for me, nuance is everything with characters. Their conflicting and contradictive choices is always a pleasure to dissect and see what actions or consequences come from it.
So to read all of your comments/analyses honestly makes what I do completely worth it. I know I don't respond to majority of them (mostly to not confirm or deny anything), but each of them warms my heart. It keeps the fire in me alive, because many times I've caught myself pondering on the "what ifs" after reading some comments if I chose to continue the story their way. By the end, I'm filled with so much inspiration, and I'm eager to write more stories.
Words can't express my gratitude for your engagement and support. And not only that, you all ensure to be understanding of one another despite the differing opinions and keep discussions respectful which I appreciate very much. It truly means a lot to me. Please continue to be amazing.
Thank you~ (´∀｀)♡

I'll be so real with you. I used to look at ASMR as an embarrassment. Something foolish. I thought people were moaning into a microphone to "take advantage of people who had no love in their life at the moment so they'll find something to attach to". I had no interest in it nor did I think it was entertaining. Granted before, I had seen ASMR of people eating, putting things near their microphones, or just whispering the entire time where it was either cringe, boring, or the acting was straight up bad! You changed my (& likely others) whole trajectory towards it when I found your content in 2020/2021! I thought, " Why the f### is his audios so good? It's freaking ASMR!" Then, I slowly watched it evolve from ASMR to audio role play & audio dramas because the characters were so good & then you started featuring in projects of other VAs & ASMRtists who are just as talented so I got into their content as well. Things got better when I joined Discord because it was nice to make friends with people & Crumpets who also love your work. Listening through your work experience as well as other VAs/ASMRtists made me appreciate the media more (adding onto my love of audio dramas) because now that I recently got a VA role in a project, I understand the ups & downs of what you have to work with & coming from someone who is a minority & went through some recent struggle, it's really been a great experience for me. I don't think you know how much of an impact you became to the community. Or maybe you do know & I'm just assuming, sorry about that. I appreciate all that you do & what you've done for so many people.💕💗💕

2025-06-10 18:43:51 +0000 UTCive been seeking out comfort in ASMRs for years and that included your older audios which were one of my favourites! As you introduced the new stories I was SO into it i swear the noble trials series has CHANGED me im so passionate about it, im OBSESSED with the way you write the characters and give the personalities to each listener of the story! ♥️♥️ keep up the good work, i dont think ive ever been as fascinated with someones audios as much as i am with your works!! im super glad to hear that youre enjoying it, every two weeks im more and more amazed about your creativity♥️ edit: i wanted to mention, another thing ive always loved is how most of your characters share a morality of respect and consent (not mentioning the few exceptions which ARENT supposed to fall into that criteria🤣) which has always given me so much more comfort than the usual asmrs and the feeling of being understood, YOU GET ITTTT
