…Well. I may have gone chaos mode again 
Being busy has left me pretty mentally exhausted for 錆喰いビスコ lately, so today I decided to take a break (lmao) and check out 風が強く吹いている again, see how it felt. And… wow. Like seriously, it feels SO much more readable than the last time I messed with it, and definitely more than 錆喰いビスコ has, even as I’ve gotten a bit more comfortable with it. Don’t get me wrong, I’m still looking up a bunch of stuff, but like… so much less. It’s honestly wild. 風つよ always felt like some far-off thing; a 600-something page novel?? Terrifying So for it to be comparatively “easy”… wild.
So I read like 18 pages That’s farther than I’ve ever gotten in the past (which is also really crazy to realize, I spent ages on it then haha) and I definitely felt much more comfortable with it than I ever had before. I thought I understood what was going on when I read it before… not so lmao. It’s really just a huge wake-up call; I remember thinking that the sentences in 風つよ were all so long, but now 錆喰いビスコ has ruined me and they mostly feel short. Perspective is everything huh?
Anyway today’s reading was a really cool experience, and now I have more options for prose! Mushroom boys and running boys, what more could I need
Fun words
渦巻く - to whirl, to jumble together
耳を澄ます - to strain one’s ears
駆けずり回る - to run around, to busy oneself
重力 - gravity
Ooh okay, I’ll have to keep an eye out
