The Lilac Journal

Alsten's personal blog, moreso for wiki updates.

Welcome to the Lilac Journal!

Oh, hello there! My name is Alsten, or Al, as far as everyone knows.


So this is a mini blog I have been meaning to set up for quite a while now. If anything the only things I would post here are updates in regards to my current wikis, the public Alsten's Personal Worldbuilding Wiki, and the private Indigo Portfolio. I named this blog the Lilac Journal to match with the IndPort, as you can see lol-


Please navigate with the links around the right to get started!


In addition, here are my social medias!

12 December 2023 - The Lilac Journal has its first page!

Oh hey there!


So I have just set up this neat little simple blog. It's quite cool innit o3o

This wouldn't be replacing any other blogging stuff I do tho. If anything I would be using this to document more on certain wiki updates, mainly with the APWW and IndPort. IndPort tho I'll have to blur certain stuff because it's a private wiki for a reason. Hush hush-


Anyways just gonna say I just really appreciate these kinds of free wiki hosting services that helps us manage our wikis the way we wanna and with NO ADS *glares at FANDOM with my red orbs grrr* /j but you get what I mean. Really big shoutout to services like Miraheze and Tiddlyhost!!! Go support them if ye can they're really coolio

Shoutout to Feather Wiki as well, this is some really neat stuff and it saves me the burden of making a whole 'nother Tiddly with all these theme adjustments here and there. Also IT'S PURPLE!!!!!!!!!!!! HELL YEAH!!!!!!!!!!




That beside the point, how have I been in general? I guess I've been feeling good. First semester's finals genuinely drained me of focusing on what I wanna do but now that I'm on break before the second semester I can do whatever the heck I wanna for the next four weeks or so lol

Also a something- There was one point in my Gacha channel I expressed how I wanna read this fic on AO3 but it was like, twenty-one chapters long, and I have shitty attention span. So of course I went onto YouTube, see if anyone has a reading of it so I can follow along, but no it was full of Gacha Club skits in relation to the fic ough;; Like it's not the Gacha videos I have a problem with, considering I am literally IN the Gacha community, it's the fact I can't find a fic reading!!!
But I did find one... Technically? It's not with a human voice, but it did help me with following the fic. It's called Toggling Firefox's Read Mode Feature And Letting A Text-To-Speech Voice Read It All For You. I'm currently on chapter eighteen out of THIRTY-SEVEN. They updated it and now i have to endure more of it ough;

That's all for now!!! owo/

18 December 2023 - A Game Concept

So, something has been going on these past few days.
I've shared this in my secondary YouTube channel, I've shared it in a Discord server I'm in, but I've been working on some silly little FNaF4-like game. Pretty much the same premise too, being you, the protagonist, fighting monsters within a bedroom, but with a little twist in the lore of it lol-
So far I coded a bit of how the gameplay interface would be like and sketched out how the title and everything would be like. There isn't much else I can say because really it's my first time doing something like this, so there's a lot of personal beta testing and coding I would still have to do.
And yes this is kinda Ocean's Faults related lol

I told my brother about me making this game and he recommended I use Godot to make it, but I told him I was already starting the code in Turbowarp lmfao-

29 December 2023 - Fic things

First thing's first, I'M FINALLY DONE READING THE ENTIRETY OF BUTTERFLY REIGN WAHOOOOO-

...yeah i'm gonna admit that was the ao3 fic i wanted to read but it was too long for me so i had to shove it into Firefox's reader view's read aloud via text to speech and all that lol-

i guess you all can see what i meant by "All I get is Gacha reactions regarding said fic frick-" when i was talking about it at one point. i'm late to the bee arr party but hush hush better late than never as they say lmfaodkhfdhsjsk-

my thoughts? i'm giving everyone therapy. i'm also gonna assassinate br!phil. i'm g-

"AL HIS WIFE IS DEAD GIVE HIM A BREAK" DOESN'T GIVE HIM AN EXCUSE TO BE A PIECE OF SHIT TO HIS KIDS

the fic is here if you wanna read it. content/trigger warning for death, neglect, self-harm, all that jazz btw. also it's a Dream SMP fic if you know what i mean so if you're not comfortable with that then feel free to not read it.


Second, I have been writing the first chapter of Ocean's Faults, the "rain cloud emoji story" as I have been calling it. I haven't mentioned this before, but I have been separating the story into acts coded by Greek letters as there was so much to categorize and write lol- The act I summarized in the APWW and the one I'm currently writing is act Gamma, the third act of the overall story, as that is what I'm most comfortable sharing about right now and it does tease at the previous Alpha and Beta acts lol

It's titled "The Ever-Watching Prismatic Pattern," as the whole story's theme relies a lot on events repeating and colours and not the ocean lmao- The other acts will have their own titles when I get to them.

So anyways, while the first chapter is still being worked on, here's a teaser paragraph!!


The old ghost town of Sapir looked very sad when Brooke came to visit it. Towns of bright colour lined the greyish-brown streets, shops and whatnot she knew, at one point, used to be bustling with people, now sit there as their paint slowly gets peeled off and bleached by the sun after no attendance to them for several years. She walked in, just with intentions of paying it a visit, obviously not to move there as that would be a foolish decision. Who would want to move there after years of abandonment wore everything down, and considering the very incident that happened that lead to everyone leaving?

An incident she researched a bit too much on, Brooke would think to herself as she walked past cracked buildings. An incident that shook this small circle of towns, as such was unheard of. The national news articles and true crime podcasts only covered it to such surface level information.


Third, Small Spark's prologue was just released!! You can read it over here!

The other chapters are still in a work in progress state, and have been for a while. I still haven't planned a lot for LuR, neither its side story collection A Bee Sea, mainly because I have no idea what will happen, but I could continue to work on them when I feel like it! But for now I'm a little focused on OcF-G/TEWPP.


Fourth, I have debated on whether I continue publishing my stories onto Wattpad or straight up move to other fic sharing sites like AO3. There are original, non-fanfic works in AO3 last time I checked, they're just not that prominent. Or alternatively I could add a separate section here dedicated to my writing works. But for now I'm relying on Wattpad for my lore sharing.


That's all! o3o/

14 January 2024 - Ocean's Organization

Eyo, first blog post of 2024!!
So here are the plans as of now, I am going to give the Featherverse-related pages in the APWW the same kind of organization they have in the IndPort. Speaking of, I have also yet to update the whole thing so now it fits along with the new plot point I have. Mainly with the Alpha act guys oh boy-
Also just wanna say lately I have been returning to Lernu.net as my prominent source of learning Esperanto instead of Duolingo. Maybe it's the lack of pressure to keep up a streak, maybe its how its so casual and lets me redo my mistakes. Idk it just feels a lot better imo-
And that's all for now! Have this meme I did in one of my private Discord test servers that I pretty much turned into an OC lore notebook-

27 January 2024 - More organization is at hand

So in terms of wiki updates, Miraheze is undergoing some data migration process and as such I can't access my wiki because of it. So for obvious reasons, the Alsten's Personal Worldbuilding Wiki will not be updated in a while, since they said migration will take around 2-4 weeks at most.

As for the Indigo Portfolio, I'm planning on restarting it since right now its in a disorganized mess and I haven't adapted it with my new iterations and lore for the Featherverse as a whole. So progress on that would be on pause until I get things more sorted out.

That's all ;3; Here's another doodle I did months ago. Some concept Capri and... Another person.

16 March 2024 - Many Updates

1) I'm one or two Microsoft bullshit(s) away from switching to Linux (broken heart emoji but purple). My brother has been recommending it to me ever since he switched to it, and now with Microsoft dragging its Windows 11 bullshit to Windows 10, I might as well consider it.

2) I just go by they/them, he/him, and xe/xem nowadays!! No any/all pronouns now woops- I've been experimenting for a few days with this set of pronouns to see if it's right for me and apparently it is lol-

3) The Indigo Portfolio is getting a whole overhaul because of the new lore, new names, and a lot of deviation from what I initially wrote it to be. Also, the Featherverse is now called the Cloudverse because it feels more fitting considering the many cloud icons I keep associating it with. The IndPort is also called the Confetti Portfolio now, in reference to an accidental theme I gave it looking like confetti/funfetti cake.

4) I... actually should make a full story on what happened in this community post considering I made people concerned for my wellbeing (i mean it's fair they're concerned I WAS THREATENED TO BE DOXXED) so I guess I can give a full story on it one day.

22 December 2024 - A lot happened while I was gone

So a lot happened while this was away. I got a Strawpage that better organises my info, the Cloudverse now has its own dedicated wiki, and it has a lot of info going on with it! Also a lot of secrets to decode and references to get, that's one thing. It's the most condensed way I can give away what the hell's been happening.

Why was this blog not listed in the socials anymore? Because I pretty much abandoned this place lmao-
