ArimaMary's Yearly Wrap-Up (2025 Edition)
Haven't done this is so many years! This is a summary of all of my creations of the year. Well, the big picture. Doesn't include stuff like intro posts which I put a substantial amount and thought to.
There's also some TBA things that I just didn't want to work on before posting this. The Dreamwidth links with those initials lead to placeholders.
Web Dev
- ArimaMary's Main Website & ArimaMary's NSFW Website (June 2025)
- Made these in a week for Pride Month. Started as merely a fic archive that I look forward to expanding :3.
- ArimaMary's Linkfree (Aug. 2025)
- A one-page site with links to all my social media presence. Original template by Ade Mir.
- (NSFW; 18+ ONLY) Kirishima Keima's OC Profile (Dec. 2025)
- My first one page profile of one of my OCs! Made with HTML and CSS! I hope to make more at least one next year. His partner needs a matching one! But that's all the way in October. Hm, maybe for Valentine's Day instead?
Writing
Fics
- Of Flowers and Mirrors (Aug. 2025; WIP)
- links: AO3, Dreamwidth (TBA)
- Posted a couple of chapters after deciding to return to the fandom. I had this story in mind since I finished Eyes and Lies (the prequel) in 2019 and I felt a strong urge to start writing it. It's not something I'm actively working at the moment. It's kind of a... thing I can tinker with when I'm bored. Mostly focused on developing the main character.
- Together, We're Invincible (Sept. 2025; WIP)
- links: AO3, Dreamwidth (TBA)
- I returned to the IE because I wanted to write SomeFubu and this is my attempt at it.
- (NSFW; 18+ ONLY) Keima's New Kink (Sept. 2025)
- links: AO3, DW archive
- A silly fic I wrote in an afternoon.
- (NSFW; 18+ ONLY) Couple Intimacy 101 (Oct. 2025)
- links: AO3, DW archive
- One of the fics that I dusted off some old drafts back in 2020. It's a solid 15k words long and now the first fic of my College AU series.

Rec_cember
- Ina11Recs: December 2025 Edition (Nov. - Dec. 2025)
- links: Tumblr sideblog, Dreamwidth community
- After immersing myself in Dreamwidth and learning that recommending works was a big part of the culture, I wanted to take part in it. Because I read so many IE fics and many which I grew attached to, I decided to create a side blog on Tumblr and personal community on Dreamwidth to recommend my favorites.
- It's called "December 2025 Edition" because there was a reccing event that month that I took part in.
- I certainly have gone all out in this endeavor. Gonna need a loooonnggg break from reccing.
Misc.
Accounts
- ArimaMary's Mastodon (June 2025)
- I moved to the Fediverse this year! I had been considering it for a while and finally decided to take the plunge. It's been great! I'm having a lot of fun blabbering about stuff I care about. I don't really think about what other people might think.
- My account is locked and Mastodon has different visibility options for posts. I enjoy sharing links to stuff I find online as surfing on the web is one of my favorite pastimes.
- I'm also having fun making and maintaining threads. It's mostly me talking to myself and every so often and interacting with some mutual about our fannish interests (mostly danmei). I like it!
- I keep my account well-organized. It's really satisfying! The filters feature is probably my favorite thing about the software. Can't recommend it enough! Decentralized social media!
- ArimaMary's status.cafe (June 2025)
- Created this on a whim before getting a Mastodon account. It will be linked to my website some day.
- ArimaMary's Dreamwidth (July 2025)
- I had been eyeing Dreamwidth for a while before deciding to create an account. I wanted a blogging platform in line to indie web/small web values of freedom to expression and backed by users.
- It started as an archive for my different Tumblr posts before I decided to buckle down and learn it's peculiarities.
- After overcoming the initial barrier, it's been a smooth ride using it! I've loved my time the site that I have trouble not comparing it more positively with Tumblr. I want everyone to know of this amazing place!
- ArimaMary's Dreamwidth Fic Archive (Nov. 2025)
- I saw other folks in DW maintain fic archive and couldn't help the urge to make one. I'm regretting it a bit because it's one more archive to maintain but I know that's also a net positive in the long run.
- ArimaMary's pronouns.cc (Dec. 2025)
- Another account I made on a whim. It seemed necessary. At least just to have it. I don't really have much hard ideas about my gender apart from non-binary with they them pronounds but I have been called ArimaMary instead of Mary that just bothers me for some reason lol. It was a good exercise about my preferences. Will probably add more stuff if I keep thinking about it.
- ArimaMary's Now Page (Dec. 2025)
- My brain was getting overwhelmed with everything I was doing across my accounts so I decided to use Rentry to create a /Now page with my current priorities. Would have made a page for my website but I really needed something that's quick to edit and update.
- ArimaMary's Pillowfort (Dec. 2025)
- This thing sneak upon me when I was testing Bridgy Fed and then created a Bsky account. Realized I despised the thought of having a presence there so I closed down both accounts and signed up to Pillowfort.
- I'm planning for it to replace Tumblr as a place to crosspost my meta from Dreamwidth and Mastodon.
Other
- ArimaMary's Wiki (June 2025)
- I created a wiki for all my creative writing stuff (verses, fics, characters, etc), gathering all the information spread across all my drives. Took three weeks. It was hell and it's not even completely done.
- I took inspiration from NomnomNami's blog post on her Notion set up for her stories.
- The Ultimate KDFD Masterlist Revamp (Sept. 2025; WIP)
- link: Tumblr sideblog
- I "started" this project couple of days after returning to Tumblr. I have found myself not as passionate about the ship as before, so this project is on-hold until further notice.
- Transformative Works Blanket Statement (Dec. 2025)
- Nothing too big but still relevant. For now, there's a copy on my Dreamwidth fic archive which my AO3 archive links to. Need to upload a copy to my hand-coded archives in the future.
Cheers to a new year! I'm proud to have single-handedly built this online identity in spaces that align with my new values. It's been a life-changing experience and I wouldn't go back for the world. Community has definitely been this year's theme. I hope next year I can continue building on what I started on 2025 :3.
