After I Hounded the Author for Updates, She Became My Wife

Mu Yang was a devoted reader of a yuri author who was notorious for going on hiatus. She left comments, tipped coins, and begged for updates, waiting for months and checking dozens of times every day, but still found no new chapters. In a fit of anger, she tracked down the author's address and moved in across the hall.

The kind landlady encouraged her: "Xiao Yang is easy to get along with. You two should meet!"

The door opened, revealing a familiar face. It was... Yang Qi, her high school deskmate, whom she had sternly "kept in line" as class monitor for falling asleep in class.

"Hey, deskmate. Long time no see. You're still so..." Mu Yang awkwardly searched for something to say that might save face. Before she could finish, the "easygoing Xiao Yang" slammed the door shut.

...Mu Yang felt like her chances of getting updates were doomed.

...But was she the kind of person to give up so easily? She'd give it everything she had!

When the author was in a bad mood, she comforted her like crazy; when the author's stats were poor, she promoted her stories every way she could;

when the author had no inspiration, she role-played; when the author got sick, she stayed up all night to care for her;

when the author procrastinated, she studied psychology on the spot to help cure her;

when the author wrote a bad ending, she studied communication on the spot and used both soft and hard tactics to get her to change it;

when the author couldn't make a choice, she organized the outline and had her draw lots;

when the author went to a lesbian bar to get in the mood, she accompanied her the whole time to make sure the author didn't actually fall for some woman... and let that get in the way of writing.

...And so the author's update schedule steadily improved, but her attitude toward Mu Yang remained impossible to read.

Why did she make snide remarks about Mu Yang while helping her deal with disgusting clients?

Why did she call Mu Yang an idiot while working her suggestions into the story?

Why did she say she hated taking pictures, then ask Mu Yang to split the cost of a studio photo package?

Why did she cling to Mu Yang and refuse to let go when she was terrified of ghosts, yet insist on watching supernatural movies with her in the middle of the night?

After six months of living under the same roof, the author, who had made Mu Yang's life difficult in every way, showed another side of herself after getting drunk one night.

She tugged at Mu Yang's sleeve, acting coy and clingy, looking utterly pitiful.

"Class monitor, you look so fierce. When you glare at me, I get scared, and when I'm scared, I can't write... Will you kiss me? If you kiss me, I won't be scared anymore..."

...Mu Yang's mind was in chaos, but her body obediently leaned in.

The next day, Mu Yang asked carefully, "Did you mean what you said last night?"

She didn't care so much anymore whether the author updated or not. She just wanted to know if the author's promise to be her wife still counted.

But Yang Qi's face was cold. "I said I'd update today, so I will. Also, this is my room. Please leave. Don't show up at all today. I don't want my inspiration interrupted!"

That day, she posted ten thousand words in one go, leaving Mu Yang in a daze all by herself.

What do you do when your wife seems to have a split personality?

I turned the author I kept pestering for updates into my wife, but now she ignores me whenever she posts an update. What do I do?

Looks fierce but is actually gentle, emotionally dense gong X tsundere, split-personality, flirtatious shou

The author's personal preferences: The protagonist and the main supporting cast share the author's surname, which they take from their mothers. They're kind to their own people but vicious toward trash, and they don't put up with mistreatment. I only write pure yuri, and all side couples are yuri too. Please don't tell me this isn't realistic. In real life, strong women like hanging out together, and lesbians like hanging out together too. Comments using that as a reason to raise concerns will be deleted.

[My completed work "Reverse-Trope Nonhuman Yuri Anthology" is available to read.]

[Mu Yang isn't a soft top! Gentleness and strength of character aren't mutually exclusive! And once she figures out her feelings, she's very proactive. She's not a kept woman either. She's a generous rich lady in her own right.]

[Both female leads are exclusively gay. There's no straight-to-gay plotline; they have mutual unrequited feelings, and Mu Yang is just slow to realize hers. Both are virgins, but there are melodramatic misunderstandings like "She's not my girlfriend, she's my cousin" and "He's not my partner, he's my shameless debt-collecting cousin." ]
