#<-- in case you want to blacklist my rambles

[bonesandbolts]

As the number of potential bots following me rises to over 500, I begin to wonder... I feel very much like that episode of TMA with the guy running from the dead and they just continue to follow him in greater and greater numbers. But he just knows if he stops moving, they will descend on him. Is that me? Do I need to keep posting to appease the Tumblr @staff gods? If I stop will the bots take over my account and erase me from this cesspool of a platform?

They have already begun to mimic me, sharing my words to rest at the top of their blogs like some parakeet repeating my misery back to the universe. When will it end?

This might be a risky hot take but

Some of you "Gregory Defenders" are starting to annoy the absolute hell out of me

And this isn't about the "whether Gregory is innocent or guilty" side of the argument you're on, but about how obnoxious and unhinged some of y'all are about it regardless of the "side" you're on.

Not everyone in the fandom is going to like Gregory, nor will everyone see him as innocent. Some may even say he's a cold and manipulative backstabber, or that he's only popular because of "male protag privilege". And you know what, that's actually all okay and valid. And you know why?

Because Gregory is not real.

"He's only like 12!!!!" he's not real.

"He's just a child!!!" he's not real.

"He's not guilty he was brainwashed!!" he's not real.

"He's only trying to protect himself he doesn't deserve hate!!!" Let people dislike/hate him if they want, it won't affect Gregory at all because he's not real.

It's not like people are bullying a real child. He's a fictional character, in case y'all ever forgot that detail.

Actually no, I am SURE y'all forgot that detail, with how you treat people who dislike him as if it was an actual moral issue and paint them as evil for not sharing your image of your perfect cinnamon roll gremlin boy.

"How DARE you say Gregory's not innocent? How can you HATE him he's just a kid!!! It's not his fault STOP punishing him!!! How evil do you have to be to blame a literal child!!!? You're disgusting!!!" HE'S NOT FUCKING REAL.

Where in the fucking hell is it okay to label a person as evil or bully them for like, liking Cassie (another fictional character in case you also forgot) over Gregory??

Yes this also goes to y'all who approach people unprompted to tell them like a lawyer why Gregory is not to blame, especially with how condescending and obnoxious you are about it, pretty much reeking the vibe of "I'm telling you how wrong you are for blaming Gregory because you're clearly stupid for not believing otherwise, here's why I'm right and why my vision of this character is the correct one."

I'm sick of "Gregory defense lawyers" coming to my inbox after my ramblings about Cassie blaming Gregory for the elevator drop all condenscendingly like "Ummm actually you can't do that because Gregory is innocent it was all the Mimic in case you missed the details blah blah-" did I fucking ask???

(Unless people seem confused or are new to the fandom and they ask, then you may be entitled to tell them... but I still suggest being unbiased and focusing on canon aspects only rather than your personal opinion about it.)

Don't even get me started on y'all's flat out hostility towards people who don't like Gregory

"If you think Gregory did anything wrong ever I'LL FUCKING FIGHT YOU" is this really all that necessary to protect a kid that doesn't even exist??? Is it worth ending friendships or snuffing out potential new friendships with other real people over??? Worth bullying and witch-hunting other real people whose only apparent crime was loving the same franchise as you? How can you be proud of that?

(Unless you mean you will fight people in that memey or shitpost way then idc keep being a silly little guy actually)

"But I adore Gregory, and he's my favorite character!! It makes me really upset when people hate him/make art/write about him being guilty or blamed, or say Cassie is better! I don't agree with it!!" ... then why are you making yourself upset by checking out content about Gregory that you don't like? Like... dude.

People are going to create stuff about Gregory (or any other fictional character really,) that won't always align with you. And they're entitled to do it, no matter how wrong you think they are! Instead of policing what other people create about your blorbo, just look away and seek content about them that you actually like. If a particular creator's vision on Gregory is too much of a deal-breaker for you, just block and blacklist and move on. Or create the content you want yourself instead of badgering other people.

Also keep in mind that Gregory being antagonized in a fic/art/etc doesn't always translate to the authors hating him, chances are they're just writting it from other characters' perspectives who may have whatever beef with him in the given setting, so don't go jumping to conclusions either. And even if the antagonism does come from the author's personal bias, that still gives you no right to harrass them anyways.

I will continue liking Cassie over Gregory and I do think she's better and I will continue rambling about Cassie hating Gregory for believing he betrayed her even if it was the Mimic, because it is an interesting scenario, and I personally think the whole GGY thing was dumb and unnecessary (he could still have been an interesting character as just an unlucky homeless boy without any sinister plot-twist.) That's it; There's no fucking need to make it about morality, ffs. If you don't like that, ignore it, or unfollow me if it's that much of a deal-breaker for you.

All y'all are doing is giving reasonable Gregory fans a bad name, and actually making people dislike him further by oversaturating him and forcing him into a source of stress and disdain rather than enjoyment for them, where people start actually getting sick of seeing him around (and I feel that myself already.)

Let people dislike Gregory for whatever reason.

By the way...

You "Gregory Haters" are annoying me as well

As entitled as you are to your opinion about this annoying manipulative liar of a brat, there are people who share a different sentiment about him. Let them.

You don't have to reblog or comment on someone's post how much they adore Gregory to tell why you hate him, or go to the spaces of Gregory fans to spew why you hate so much this little guy they like. That's just fucking mean and rude. Make your own post, or go to the spaces that share your opinion.

Quit making people feel bad for liking a character you dislike. If you don't like Gregory, why are you even bothering to check out content about him, then? Check out content about characters you LIKE. I bet that'd make you much happier than spending your time regurgitating your hate over someone's creation about a character they like but you don't and unsurprisingly start an argument about it. Look for things you like, block and blacklist stuff and people about your hated character if you gotta but leave them alone

Let people like Gregory for whatever reason, too.

Let people see Gregory however way they see fit.

Because this bears repeating: He's not real. He's a fictional character. He's a tool. Let people use him however way they see fit to drive a story or scenario; that's his purpose, as a fictional character.

Ghosted. Again. I cannot stress this enough, FUCK real men. I’m done. I’m so sick of all the emotional stress and drama, I’m going back to self shipping full time now. I don’t really know if I’ll share much of it since I’ve had so much hate in the past but I know Bi-Han will always be there for me, I’m still on the fence whether or not to include Syzoth because his dynamic with Bi-Han is so bad so I don’t know. As always I’ll tag my posts so you can blacklist the tags solarbear, solizardbear and/or bi han x sol, bi han x syzoth x sol if you don’t want to see it but like I said I don’t think I’m inclined to share much.

I’m also pretty sure I’m done writing, I’m very sorry if you sent a request and I didn’t get a chance to write it. I’m hesitant to delete or post any of them with an apology note in case I change my mind though, maybe I’m just in a really shit mood with how badly my love life has been? Maybe after a break I’ll feel in love with writing again and go back to it? Maybe I won’t. I don’t know.

I will try and stay active and reblog Bi-Han/Lin Kuei art and smut and stuff daily and still really want to make more friends and chat with you lovelies but I think I need to make tumblr a little less of a priority. I still want to be part of the MK Kommunity though, I just need a break from the creative side. My inbox is still open and you can always send me questions I just can’t write requests anymore. If that changes though I will be sure to let you know.

I want to get back in shape or at least back under a certain number so I need to prioritize physical activity and Denny time, he’s such a good baby and deserves more of my time and attention. I’ll still always been around on Discord and still have no problems adding anyone who wants to be friends on Discord and will still try and be active in my Mortal Kombat server if you need to find me. I just need to put me and my physical and mental health first, so I might not answer immediately or even consistently please know that is not on you at all, that is all me and I occasionally can’t interact because I’m exhausted or overwhelmed. I apologize in advance. My mental health is worlds better the last two years or so after getting medications that actually work but it’s not perfect and probably won’t ever be. I have so much trauma from my Mother growing up and my heart transplant that I don’t know that I’ll ever really be “good” I just know it’s “better”.

I guess I’ll wrap this post up now that I’m kind of rambling I just had to get some stuff off my chest.

[canongf]

i’ve been on the fence abt this for a while but i think you just existing has convinced me to make a self ship side blog :3 do you have any tips or advice?

THIS MAKES ME SO !!!!!!!!!

i think making a self ship side blog is one of the best things i've ever done... it's allowed me a place to explore my thoughts and feelings, it's helped my self confidence!!! i've made some of my best friends through this blog!!! it's been a lot a lot a lot of fun!!! and the thought that you're thinking of making your own because of me makes me sooo happy!!!

and i do have some tips!!!

pace yourself!!!

there might be an urge to go all in from the beginning and that is not a bad urge!!! but sometimes it can lead to disappointment and burn out, and that's no fun!!! so pace yourself!!! new blogs don't always show up in the tags right away because there's a trial period on tumblr to make sure you're not spam & a lot of people in the community can be shy or nervous about reaching out, especially to new people. just in case you don't get a ton of interactions right away, remember that it's not you. just give it a little time and try to have fun with it while you do!!!

reach out first!!!

like i said!!! a lot of people in the community can be shy or nervous about reaching out!! but the thing about people in the community is that they're in the community because they want to be in a community. they want to talk!! so don't be afraid to reach out first!!! even if you're not ready to send a dm or an ask, i've made a bunch of mutuals and friends just by reblogging their stuff and leaving a nice tag! by being a consistent username in their notes! people usually get invested in you and your ships when you get invested in them and their ships!!

make your own rules!!!

i see a lot of people, especially when they're new to self shipping, look to other people for answers. can i self ship with an oc? can i call them my spouse if i just found them? things like that. and i completely understand!!! sometimes when you're in a new environment you're not always sure if there are unspoken rules or something you're missing. totally fine to want a little guidance but i am here to tell you that, ultimately, self shipping is for you, and you make your own rules.

if you want to self ship with your own oc, do it. if you want to call a character your spouse even though you just found them, do it. gain as many f/os as you want, drop them just as fast, use a self insert or just use yourself, draw art, write fic, make a playlist about a character you don't ship with, whatever you want. sometimes people might not like it for whatever reason they might have and they won't want to interact, and they're allowed to do that. but you're also allowed to do what you want.

make yourself the priority!!!

at the end of the day, self shipping is about you. it's so much fun to make friends and it's so much fun to get notes, and there is nothing wrong with seeking those things!!! but just remember that if you ever get to a point where you don't feel like it's about you anymore, take a step back. if you're not having fun anymore, take a step back.

there have been times where i was overwhelmed, i felt like my main priority was answering asks and making posts for the community, which i love to do!!! but i had no balance!!! i felt like i needed to do it to "earn" the right to post about my own ships. it wasn't fun and it wasn't what self shipping is about. i've taken a step back, i've remade my blog, i've cleared out my ask box and i've closed it altogether, i've set boundaries, i've unfollowed and i've blocked, i've blacklisted tags, just to find the fun again. and i found the fun again!!! and it's okay for you to do that too!!!

this got sooo long, i'm so sorry!!! i just get so excited!!! i am so happy you're here and i am so happy you're considering a blog of your own, and if you don't feel like reading all my rambling, just remember these: be brave, be patient, and have fun. i love you!!!

(also if you do make a blog and you wanna share it, you're always welcome to share it here in my ask box or tag me in any posts you make!!!) 🖤

So uh. Hi, I finally made a decision I probably should have made a long while ago thanks to talking a bit on Discord: for the sake of my sanity I will not be keeping up the weekly schedule after all 😔 Layton's Book Club updates WILL be posted exclusively on Saturdays at the decided time, instead of at any random time in the week, and I will likely make a few heads up when we're on a lucky week during which you'll get an update, but I will not force myself to make it happen every single week. Simply because at least right now, it is physically impossible for me to do so. (Chapter 1 Part 1 of Illusory Forest is going to be the end of me, and not just because I am still questioning if the author was under the influence of some Folsense gas while writing it.)

That being said, I believe this should actually be treated as good news, and not just good news for my personal health. Because, sure, the updates will not come out as often as I had originally planned to. But in the long run, I actually believe that since I no longer plan to force myself to only work on one thing (which has progressively been eating at my sanity on top of that because darn it this chapter is stupid and it just doesn't seem to END, + it'd be nice if I could finally get some content out that is my creation rather than somebody else's), it means that I will actually allow myself to post more diverse Layton stuff in the meantime.

Stuff like the Evan Barde post I made a few days ago, or other helpful-for-the-fandom stuff that isn't translation work, or… even maybe stuff like finally allowing myself to write SLS and draw random stuff again? Or even read other people’s fanfics and comics and AUs and stuff? (ok technically that last one would probably not lead to tumblr content but shush it means I would take time to look at YOUR content for a change)

The list of stuff I'd like to post in the future includes but is not limited to:

A tutorial on how I get my translation stuff done despite the fact that I do not actually speak Japanese. Best case scenario, this might even lead to some brave people among you to start helping me with this monumental task that is translating multiple novels and games from scratch while you're not even fluent in the language you're translating, and this would be a MASSIVE weight off my back. (spoiler alert: while I do use DeepL to check stuff and/or get inspiration, my work is NOT limited to simply copy/pasting sentences into it and then copy/pasting whatever it gives me back)

The Playthrough series! You had all forgotten about it, hadn't you? Yeah, me too.

Lore analysis stuff in general. I have a massive, absolutely insane project ongoing which is basically "Want to find some info about X? Just open that one (1) web page, enter a few tags such as a specific character's name or location, clich the Search button, and get a list of every single known fact which is related to all of your tags which is summarised down to the bare minimum fact, along with the exact source and quote directly taken from the source material."

Puzzle theory stuff. I've talked about it a lot, it'd be cool if I could finally get the stuff sorted and actually provide all the evidence supporting, refining or challenging it in one place. Above-mentioned lore analysis stuff should help with that.

More fancy shitpost such as the ones found in the #lutiasdraws tag. Let me join in on the fun pls it's good for my mental health to get some serotonin out of non-boring stuff. Heck, perhaps I might even do fanart/shitpost about some fanfics/AUs/others I find and enjoy.

That being said, I apologise to everyone who was hyped at the idea of Illusory Forest updating weekly, but I hope you'll still enjoy the stuff I'll be posting here. If not, blacklisting tags is a thing! I tag everything diligently so for example if you're tired of seeing me ramble about stuff (I do that a lot lately, sorry for that 😭), you can just block the #lutiastalks tag. Yes I finally decided to make #lutiasreplies exclusive to actually replying to asks or reblogs, and use #lutiastalks for random news stuff. yay to self-care and cleaning up my house, head, and tumblr blog.

[orifumioshi]

By know you should be used to me dissapearing from time to time xD Between wanting to avoid 02beginning spoilers, being busy, being lazy and going through some stuff I won't elaborate to respect the irl .individuals involved, haven't had the "time" to check SNS tehee.

I might still avoid SNS in general until I can watch 02beginning because even if I blacklist spoilers, I'm dumb and sometimes (very often) give in into looking stuff OTL I'm weak. You have no idea how many times I had to reload my local cinemas homepage with "Digimon 02" since... ummm... a month ago...? Well but, I kept checking everyday and it was this week when at least one finally has schedules and dates but, only dubbed in my near cinemas and I really wanted to watch it subbed first. The subs might have the same issues as Lastevo so I can trust my JPN even if the subs are not accurate but of course, I don't know if this will be the case, would be nice if not but I won't know unless some kind of miracle brings the subs near me, I don't really want to make a 3-4 hours trip when I can go in 10 mins.

Anyway, I swear I'll spend my weekend checking my messages for real this time since... I realized I have untouched chats over here!! I don't know how it happens but I have a feeling it began when I installed tumblr back into my phone but, I would get notifications about chat messages and when I checked (still on mobile) I had nothing even if I opened the chat so I assumed I didn't got it and eventually as my day keep going, I forgot to check on desktop.

It was thanks to a friend that pointed me out via whatsapp that they've been waiting to talk to me and when I opened the chat in mobile, didn't had anything but immediately opened it on desktop and I indeed had their 5 messages... from like 2 months ago OTL

I have hopes that it's my phone rather than the tumblr app but oh well, it would be nice if I'm not the only once with this problem. It will take me a while to sort out messages so please be patient with me m(_ _)m

I'm totally going to ramble about 02beginning once I can watch after Nov 30th so, be sure to black list my "02beginning" and "02beginning spoilers" tags just in case I end up screaming spoiler-ish facts.

Sorry if I worried you ;w;

[icharchivist]

was having banri thoughts lately just bc like. why not right. and then i suddenly remember u mentioning that some ppl... did not like banri at the start? which is wild to me bc in my mind ive always been ride or die for him. like i love juza so much but i feel like. that doesnt rly oppose liking banris character as well? banri is such fun character drama at the beginning of autumn and then his and itarus dynamic is fun from the start... gosh and the acting in the final bits of the autumn troupe between him and juza! suchhh fun tension. like. idk. it just started making me think like wow. digging thru a3 on my own with mostly the influence of like, just you has probably skewed my opinion of what the common perception of a3 is like. for example in my head winter is the most popular troupe which... it maybe isnt? i feel like recently i saw u mention summer might be the most popular(? this couldve been a dream) and i didnt realize itaru was super popular until like. last month. i mean if i had to pick a character i thought was the most popular i'd pick. misumi.

LKFJDLKFJD god what an ask

yeah i doubt i'm exactly the "common a3 experience" but to be perfectly honest i haven’t really kept tabs on the fandom per se since hh mid-2020 when i started to dig into some tags and saw so much negativity i was just :/ and stopped doing so (the curse to liking rascals </3).

Nowadays my knowledge of the a3 fandom is mostly the people interreacting with me, which already generally means that they vibe with what i post, so it gives me a skewed vision of the fandom like, are we all like that? or are the loud voices that made me go avoid the tag still here yaknow?

More stuff under cut

For Banri, i'll admit i wasn't too hot about him when i started the game, which now i regret so bad because he's my precious little meow meow hands down. He has such a good arc!!!! I know in my case i just had a hard time because i cared for Juza right away and i was still so high on Summer's development i kept comparing Banri to Tenma and going "here's why Tenma is amazing and Banri is cringefail". But it lasted me until a bit before Banri sees the portraits, when he starts to be conflicted, after that i was all, oh wait i like that guy. And then the more content i saw of him the more i loved him and he became my fav Autumn Chara. (so if you want to ramble about him more you’re free to do so because i’m team i adore this guy. please do. you’re so right in what you say of him.)

But so i did expect people to have my experience - hard time in the beginning, then mellowing on him before the end of the Autumn Chapter. And it wasn't the case 😭😭😭😭 At least at the time, the Banri's takes were rancid. Like it was genuinely annoying at a point, you couldn't go anywhere without some Banri bashing fuckery, even after his initial arc, people just. really hated him. My most hated takes were that i saw so many people say Banri would bully Yuki or stuff implying they would have an antagonistic relationship and it's probably why i cling to Into the Night so much, like HELL you're going to twist one of my fav crosstroupe dynamic!!! I legit saw so many things reducing Banri to a menace and a bully, and if not that, talking about how much everyone in the dorm hated him, and it was really driving me insane then.

I remember once making a post about how i was so close to blacklist "Banri" because people didn't filter this bashing with tags so i was just ready to just, not see Banri anymore, but it was breaking my heart. But somehow after this post i got a few people coming back at me about how it annoyed them too and i saw some of those people make their own posts in a more. direct way. and after that i never saw Banri bashing again. My power (< absolutely not, coincidence at best i'm sure).

A lot of Banri bashing i saw back then were from "newcomers" in the sense that it was after the anime aired, and a lot of people were just coming in without knowing about the events. imo i think the events do help giving a better feel to Banri in general so the fact people were fresh from the anime might have skewed things. I remember a friend who was in that case, newcomer and all, only read the main story, didn't like Banri after reading the main story. Then, Main story act 2 came out and while they didn't read the events, they read the main story and they started liking Banri there (because he did develop so much since then)

And as a whole i'd say, by act 2 it must have died out a bit.

There's another chara who gets bashed a lot but. Act 2 stuff 😔. Unfortunately a chara i like a lot so this was my breaking point of "i'm not checking the tags anymore none of you know how to behave". I think it mellowed since then? and i know the chara is popular in the JPN fandom meanwhile.

else i've seen like, Tasuku having very little content from fans and a few people being mean to him when they talked about him, but it was a long time ago and i sure hope it died out. I don't think i'd say he's bashed, more that most folks don't have strong feelings about him and stopped just with a bitter taste over his anger toward Tsumugi in the first winter chap.

Now. About popularity, Winter is DEF NOT the most popular troupe. Pretty sure it plays between Autumn and Summer in term of popularity. That said it's not like any of the troupes are unpopular so any ramblings about each Troupe would be meet with pleased reactions from the fandom, so it is harder to gauge that but yeah.

Troupewise something i noticed is that i think Summer is the most popular in term of GROUP, while Autumn is the most popular in term of Individuals. So a lot of people liked Summer specifically for their dynamic and how each of those charas played out each other more than individually liking each of them, while for Autumn it was, they liked all of them strongly! not specifically for their dynamic, though of course it plays a part, but as individuals. I mention it because i think it was the key difference in rank up in why i think Summer plays were okay to rank up to while Autumn were a nightmare. (that said that can also be "blamed" on "fans gravitate around characters that have elements they have as well" or something which means Autumn fans were more likely to be competitive and stubborn in a way Summer were more mellow.)

Itaru is definitely the most popular character of the whole game, period. It's not even a competition at this point it's so funny. when the EN server was live, anytime Itaru had a rank up card was a bloodbath (< survivor of Kniroun ranking up at 0.2%. Didn't sleep normally for the whole duration of the event it was so much.).

By the end of the server things were dying out a bit but still in general you could get a vague idea of popularity by how wild the rankings could be. For instance the fact Tasuku's ranking was a breeze without even trying was indicative of how he's not that popular.

In general i've noticed, at the time at least, that Winter ranks up were rather easy. I've ranked up for a few of Summer and i didn't see much of a problem otherwise*. Spring was really chill unless Itaru was in rank up. Autumn was THE Bloodbath. There were Autumn Stans organziation all over, the appp SYSTEMATICALLY broke EVERYTIME Autumn was around, it was always much more challenging, so yeah man.

Misumi* is probably the one i'd consider the second most popular character of the game, pretty much.

(*The funny thing is that Misumi got his lead play very early in the server's history, and i know i ranked up for him then and i didn't think it was too hard. In retrospect i'm sure it has more to do with the fact the game didn't have as many people playing it, than it had to do with popularity, so my word on Summer not being a problem is based on weird stats)

A while ago, for the Taiwanese server, there was a special set of cards in term of popularity on this server. Itaru got a SSR, Masumi got a SR, and Misumi got a R.

Masumi is in a weird position because i'd say he's fairly unpopular in the EN server, while he's popular in the JPN and Taiwanese server. Honestly i'm assuming he's especially popular with the teen audience.

AND THE MOST TELLING PART:

The first Cross-troupe's play was involving the most popular character of each troupe, by a poll being made by the JPN server. The leads were Itaru and Banri, then Misumi as a secondary character and Tsumugi as a more support character.

Meaning at the time, this was the order of the 4 most popular characters of the game.

When the mixed troupe event came to the English server, i remember a poll circulating on tumblr and likely twitter as well, trying to see if the EN Server had different favorites. Itaru still came on top, Misumi followed closely afterward. For Autumn, it was Juza and Taichi that were on the top of the Autumn poll, not Banri, and for Winter, i think it was still Tsumugi but Homare was very close behind.

So that was the popularity at least back then, god knows opinions now.

I've seen Homare be extremely popular on tumblr for sure. I have no doubt in Juza's popularity as well.

I saw a lot of Taichi fan going "Taichi is underappreciated" but i saw so many of them i was kinda just thinking "bro i'm pretty sure Taichi is in the popular character squad by now" But i'm also on the other hand as i've once seen a post saying Hisoka was popular and it stunned me a moment going ????? because as a huge Hisoka stan i don't see it???? There's a few devoted fans, and he has a better fanbase in JPN server, but in EN server??? (I'm comparing the last rank up for Hisoka VS the last rank up for Taichi in my mind and i genuinely don't see it for instance) so i also think it's likely i have a "fav blindspot" where i just don't think people are vibing with the charas the way i'm vibing, just. exactly like what i'm talking about with the Taichi stans so.... (that said i also once was tagged in a post that was going "i don't think i've ever seen a Hisoka or Tasuku stan" and a friend just went @ icha come here. Schrodinger Hisoka who's both popular and unpopular depending on who you're asking. And Tasuku IS MY UNDERRATED MEOW MEOW)

I think i recall Tenma being popular for a time, and Yuki is well appreciated by everyone around here. Kazunari has a loud fanbase but i'm pretty sure the seiyuu thing was a huge blow to them and a lot of them got more quiet at the time.

And for what it's worth i do think there's a sizeable portion of the fandom that really like Tsuzuru, but i think it's just, something you get to see a lot when a huge part of the fandom is creatives. And to be completely fair, Clockwork Heart is the one event i had a massive burn out at and didn't pay attention to the rankings at all, so i can't tell if people went really wild about it. And the next Tsuzuru rank up event was literally the last event of the EN server and i'm sure it's not indicative of anything since a lot of folks just didn't want to bother. So unlike the others were i'm using rank up as a gauge of popularity i can't tell how Tsuzuru's might influence his.

SO YEAH that's for what i could pick up BACK THEN, as i remind, i didn't really look deeply into the fandom itself. I'm really good in my corner so it might not actually be indicative of the fandom trends and i'm maybe completely off base.

Then about how, i, personally, don't represent the fandom, unless the fandom changed since then: When i first liveblogged a3, it was when the server was new and no one was on tumblr about it, so i was a little unfiltered from people's opinions. when i came back about a year later to comment on act 2, getting all worked up, and running then into the growing fanbase on this website, is when i started to run into fan takes and everything.

And, let's be clear, i came back because i was crying very hard over Hisoka and Azuma and the full Winter Troupe, and Chikage, so i really came here with my Big Winter Boots only talking about Winter and then Spring.

I ended up getting a feel of what people were talking about a lot at that time, and kinda ended up talking more about what i considered my Underrated Gems.

For instance, i absolutely adore Itaru. I ranked up for him, i've bleed for him, i love the dude. But he's so popular i figured i legit had nothing to say about him that a hundred people wouldn't have been able to say before. So i've mostly didn't really talk about him much despite loving him a LOT because i just didn't think i had anything to say. (now in my current reread i'm doing it so disconnected from what i know of the fandom that i indulged in talking more about how much i like him LMAO)

Meanwhile, there's characters i love that i know the fandom don't talk about much so i end up talking about them more, and it's the case of Tasuku. I wouldn't be surprised Tasuku is really low on most people's popular list. I'm just Not Most People and you're going to hear me ramble about that hunk of a man every few days or so.

I've made my niche in the Winter Troupe appreciation gang and i'm pretty sure by now a lot of other Winter people follow me as a result because i couldn't shut the fuck up, so then my perception of the fanbase gets skewed because i just think of Them ahah.

And there is the fact i adore the rookies, mainly Chikage and Guy, but don't talk about them so much mostly because they came out later in the main story and i've been rereading act 1 so many times instead,,, and didn't talk much about act 2 in case some people managed to save themselves from being spoiled (like you!!)

So my personal perception of a3 is probably not reflecting the whole a3 fanbase really much. God the amount of times i talked my friends's ears off about Winter, that they kinda just humored me without thinking much about it, until they found out one of the More Popular Chara (Itaru, Tenma and the whole Autumn Troupe mostly) and suddenly they're like *twirls hair* heeyy Icha tell us more about a3. It's genuinely so funny to me.

and again i don't know perhaps i'm full of shit, and it's not like i've kept tabs on the fandom recently either!

But that is at least a bit of what i remember in term of popularity and what i can say is that i shouldn't be taken as an example of the fanbase's views in general.

I'm vibing in my corner, and by experience, it usually meant i ended up talking about more niche things, but since i'm disconnected from the fandom i'm pretty sure i still have opinions that are popular opinions. So who knows! not me!

So yeah that's all i can say about the popularity of the a3 fandom. Def not an indication of it by me.

and it must be funny for you since you only really have me as your fandom gateaway because well. *waves at post* yeah.

The more you know!

I keep forgetting I have this tag actually I need to add it to a bunch of posts dfsjdfhsd

#blorbocore - full of reblogs that remind me of any of my blorbos!

#sona stuff - a tag for whenever I draw my persona!

Silly tags

#obj kissing - a tag for posts I look at with huge objectum eyes... #robot tag - for posts about robots! #angel tag - for posts about angels! #space tag - for posts about space! (All of these can be applied to things not Exactly about the tag but may have the Vibes.)

#glitchdrop eclipse - I am a HUGE arcade machine Eclipse lover so I just wanted to make a tag for my wife <3 #many arms tag - for characters with at LEAST 4 arms... bc i am so gay (Centiclipse is not included under this tag because otherwise he would completely clog it up LMAO).

Common blacklisting tags

#no id - for when a post has no image description, meaning its inaccessible to people who need screen readers.

#saturated colors/#bright colors/#flashing/#eyestrain/#glitch effect - to spare anyone's eyes who want to be spared and epileptic people don't get hurt.

#angst/#whump - angst is for anything that involves generally heartbreaking posts about blorbos, whereas whump is specifically torture of a blorbo. Think mental anguish vs physical anguish.

#gore - for gore that features human or animal organs, torn skin, excessive blood, and such similar things(both written and visual. may also be paired with the #cannibalism tag.) #robot gore - for gore that features machine or robot wires, broken/melted casing, oil for blood, and similar such things. Androids that have human appearances but nonhuman insides will be included under this tag(once again, both written and visual.) #misc gore - honestly I made this tag bc I kept seeing "star gore" which is cool as FUCK but also it doesn't apply to either of the previous tags so I just made a general "other gore" tag LOL

#body horror - this will probably be more used for visual depictions, but self explanatory I think.

Those are what will be used mostly commonly but, in general, I will just tag stuff as "[thing]" or, if its a tag that may REALLY upset some people, I will add "cw [thing]" too. If you think something should be tagged or have a specific blacklist tag request, shoot an ask or DM and I'll likely tag it!

Tags for me

#fave - for posts I love! #peak fave - for posts I REALLY love! #posts to occupy the brain - for posts I've seen before and think about a lot (I usually add this tag after like, a few months or so).

#things that spark joy - for gifts and nice words!!!

#save - for posts I'll probs need for later #art inspo - styles or prompts I rlly like and will probs look at to use later in my own art!!

I ended up going to bed before the scrum was done but I did see Tony get the second question about harassment. Going to put my reaction under a cut for TW.

I thought Tony's comments about the company's policy came from such a place of privilege. It's easy for the rich, male boss of the company to say his door is always open for anyone to come to him with concerns, or they can go to anyone in the disciplinary committee. In theory, sure it works. In reality, it doesn't matter how many times you assure a young rookie they'll be listened to and taken seriously when their accusation is against someone who's a powerful veteran, friends with the owner, with the ability to blacklist them from many promotions. In way too many cases there will be enough doubt and fear for them to decide to stay silent.

As a woman(and one who has been in the unfortunate position with a coworker), nothing Tony said reassured me. Nothing about it was handled well. Have a prepared statement at the beginning to address it because you are the owner of the company and it should be addressed. It shouldn't have been up to the journalists to have to ask. The first guy shouldn't have asked during Julia's time(he has since posted he regrets his timing but thought the presser vibe was Tony wasn't going to do solo time because it was different than all the other pressers, take that what you will). The WON journalist saying the accusations have agendas is so gross. Tony repeatedly saying AEW is the safest when a few months ago he said he feared for his life, someone needs to get this man media training so he stops rambling on forever.

It's just so unfortunate that something like this overshadows their last PPV of the year, and a lot of wrestlers big moments. I do understand that they're in a weird place because the accusation hasn't come directly from Kylie Rae, she's been dragged into this, but her reaction by tweeting a heart in response to a tweet accusing Jericho can't be ignored. Tony can call them "internet rumours" all he wants, but if people who know Jericho think he's not capable of doing something like this, where's all the supportive tweets? Where's the AEW locker room bad = talent rally of positivity tweets?

Trying to pass the responsibility of having to deal with it off by saying they haven't received any complaints is also ridiculous. It shouldn't have to come directly from a terrified wrestler to be taken seriously. Most of the Speaking Out Movement accusations weren't made directly to the companies but they were still investigated and people were fired. The only reason not to at least reach out about these accusations is if Tony already knows what happened and there's NDAs, but that would also mean something did happened and they covered it up.

It's going to be 2024 here in like less than 12 hours. Can we all just fucking learn that you are not entitled to someone else's body?

[acephysicskarkat]

did you think I was going to stop ranting about sp0p’s problems just because it’s a new year? thought i was going to make a clean break? tough fucking luck babes! today’s ramble is on That Thing You Like That Is Also Toxic, a thing that, for example, @adora-deserves-better has been seeing in the old ask box this evening.

as a courtesy note, as I’ve picked up one or two non-pornbot follows from people fleeing the birdsite implosion, if you do not want to see this stuff, please take this opportunity to blacklist “#spopcrit”, which has been my tag for this ongoing narrative and thematic autopsy for at least a year now. I promise that I don’t actually discuss this very often, I think at this point I’ve mostly said what I need to say (hell, even this is kind of a rehash of points I’ve made before, I just can’t be fucked tracking down those posts), but sometimes I do feel the need to dissect another organ to further look into what went wrong.

Anyway.

So the thing about fiction is that sometimes fictional romances are toxic. This is not, in itself, a problem; what matters is the handling of the toxicity.

As a case study, let’s look at the distinguished connoisseur’s enemies-to-lovers arc set in a science fantasy setting with a religious space empire and starring a lesbian with a big sword and a mysterious past, the Locked Tomb. Gideon and Harrow’s relationship is an unhinged mess of cosmic proportions. Harrow literally invented an entirely new way of having an unhealthy relationship just for this romance, and it involved brain surgery, which she performed on herself, at seventeen.

However.

The bit where this holds together is that the messiness and toxicity and general fuckery of the relationship is not an error on Tamsyn Muir’s part. It is a part of the narrative that Muir talks about in interviews. Exploring the mess and how it unfolds is a noticeable part of the plot.

It is, essentially, supposed to be kinda fucked.

This is where SP0P runs into its final season problems, because the framing and narrative treatment is not that this relationship is kinda fucked; it’s supposed to be Big and Heartwarming and they will beat you to death with scenes of them in Elysian-esque fields under golden light to make sure you know that...but that meshes poorly with the prior parts of the story, because as of S2-S3, this relationship was absolutely kinda fucked, there are entire episodes about how and why it’s kinda fucked, and, no matter what S5 thinks, it takes more than one apology to fix that.

The romance doesn’t work as narrative or thematic payoff because the show was previously making a big deal about themes that the romance actively harms, and the transition between the two stages is not smooth and does not feel natural. “The point of C*tra’s story is to explore what happens when you’re the toxic friend” meshes poorly with a final season that is all about everyone hastily forgiving C*tra for being the toxic friend and the people she hurt being stripped of agency to avoid any discomfort for the writers. “Abuse is bad” is absolutely a smart thing to say, but you lose a lot of points when you throw in “but also, the things my favourite character does that are totally indistinguishable from abuse are fine and romantic, actually.” They put in an actually really good episode about how C*tra’s obsession with Adora is wildly unhealthy and harmful to them both, and that she should just move on and let go, and then paid off absolutely none of that foreshadowing because it might make the shippers sad. Hell, Stevenson put “Learn to Let Go” on a C*tra playlist and then wrote an endgame about rewarding C*tra for not learning to let go!

The reason why C*tradora grinds my gears where, say, Griddlehark doesn’t is that Griddlehark is about taking a toxic mess, acknowledging that it’s a toxic mess and exploring how that toxic mess develops, and C*tradora is about taking a toxic mess, rushing through a kinda bad redemption arc that doesn’t meaningfully address the toxicity of the mess, and then just declaring it to be Officially Fine Now so that the showrunner’s favourite character can have a happy ending to a tremendously disappointing character arc.

(Also the pacing is bad and it ends up killing all the foreshadowing for actual interesting things the show had been doing in order to focus on C*tra whining about not being forgiven fast enough and how everything is still Adora’s fault, a thing that is vastly less sympathetic than the writers seem to think it is, but as ever, one crisis at a time!)

intro post at last

hey i'm river! this is my comics sideblog, and you can also find my main @cirth-ithil, my star trek sideblog @transjadziadax, and on ao3 as moonrunes. my pronouns are they/them if you please, i'm an adult, i'm japanese-american, i'm a writer, and i've been reading comics for Far Too Long. ***edit to add: I am more or less on hiatus. please do not expect consistent posting or current comics.***

i mostly post about x men, with a side of other marvel stuff and a very small amount of dc. most characters are going to be tagged with [name]/[codename], tho sometimes that doesn't work very well (especially with magneto, or monica rambeau, etc) so that tagging system is not to be trusted (especially since tumblr keeps deleting my tags?). if you need me to tag something for a trigger lmk

i have many favorite Guys (gender neutral) but i have a particular soft spot for the new mutants and the champions. i do have an actual list of favorite characters but it's a little long for an intro post

sometimes i make original posts. the catch-all tag for original posts is #river rambles

sometimes i write things. that'll be at #river writes (i'll make a masterpost in a second)

sometimes i will reblog things that don't fall under the comic book umbrella. those will be tagged #not comics in case you'd like to blacklist it.

idk what else to put. i'm fucking tired of krakoa tho. also charles xavier is a cunt. Fuck that guy.

as long as you're gonna be civil about it, my askbox is open. i do enjoy talking about comics, despite the copious amounts of bitching and moaning i do about them. I do also want to add that I'm pretty free with the block button, my best friend the block button

ah! don't bother interacting if you're transphobic, homophobic, zionist, islamophobic, racist, anti-Semitic, or if you oppose BLM, landback movements, and/or the overthrowing of colonialist structures. Also, as my petty dni: i fucking hate the new mutants movie, so pretty much everything i write for the new mutants comes with the warning "new mutants movie likers fuck off this is not for you." it's a shit movie, both as an adaptation of the original comics, as an example of some really racist "writing," and also just generally not very well realized (source: i was a film major)

the queue should usually spit out five posts in a day, but i do have a full time job so sometimes it runs out. i'm still here tho, just tired

yeah that's it. hope you survive the experience

[oekaki-chan]

hi there!! i bought your DSG doujin last year, and i just wanted to say i very patiently waited to finish the game before i read it LMAO. it was a really nice post-game treat ;v;!!! also i'm a big. BIG!!!! gregson fan so i just wanted to thank u for the meal.. it was such a delight to see him get some luv T_T i hope you're having a nice day!! take care~

AAAAAA Thank you so much for purchasing, and I'm VERY happy you enjoyed the comic 😭😭💖!!! That doujinshi is actually free of major spoilers but I think it'll give you a different perspective if you already finished the game, it's like the beauty of DGS where you encounter foreshadowings ever since the first time you interact with the characters.

[ Spoiler alert for those who haven't finished the game and can't blacklist the tag ] 👇

ALSO YES! I love Gregson so much and tbh I think his death is my #1 devastating ace attorney moment before Mia's death because through the whole game you start to grow fond of the character, and his antagonism towards 221b gang is redeemed in 2-3 when he takes care of Gina as his apprentice and work together with them to chase Drebber down, whereas with Mia your only interaction with her is only on the first case and even after her death you can still summon her through Maya. Not gonna lie I kept being in denial when I know he's killed in such a way in 2-4, and to think that Gina loses her parental figure right after she found one, it stings right in the heart fr 😭

Anyway sorry for the rambles, I just like Gregson a lot and I wish people appreciate him as much as I do!

[lostjudgmnt]

you absolutely don't have to tag or censor your own labels my friend just live your life if people don't want to see the word "queer" they can quite literally blocklist it and they wont see those posts simple as

thank you i appreciate the reassurance! i just think that it’s totally reasonable for people NOT to want to see that word considering that it is a word that’s been weaponized against a lot of people and while that doesn’t mean i’m not allowed to identify with it, i just want to be mindful towards the people that have very justifiable reasons to want to avoid it. normally i would just let people’s filters catch the word when i use it because i do tend to use that word in regards to myself relatively often but in the case of an informative post about me / my blog / my own blacklist, i want things to be accessible for people who don’t wanna see the word, you know?

im sort of used to censoring/warning for things that are a regular part of who i am / my daily life anyway so i really don’t mind warning people that i identify as that word, i just was getting unnecessarily anxious about it earlier lol. like for example needles/injections are a common fear or trigger for a lot of people but they’re really ingrained in my daily life because they literally keep me alive, right? but because i understand why a person might be afraid/triggered by needles im conscious about when and where i use them and who i need to warn before i do so, even if it’s a mandatory part of my life. i’m sort of treating my gender the same way, if that makes sense.

anyway sorry for rambling my point is i appreciate your input and the reassurance but i do think at least in terms of my pinned post / about pages i am going to warn for it just to give people a heads up that that’s how i label my gender 👍🏻

Every time I see a "Wei Wuxian isn't morally gray!" post I kinda want to interpret it as "He's morally black!" Because the alternative is to believe that so fucking many of you read "Wei Wuxian forced Wen Chao to self-cannibalize his legs" and went "this is a morally white action because I like Wei Wuxian and I don't like Wen Chao and also Wen Chao was mean first" and like literally drive me to despair that I share a fandom with so many people who think that's completely okay because Wen Chao was a bad guy so any level of harm to him is justifiable.

Hi, I'm unforth, and I also love danmei and fanart, and I wanted to just make a huge gorgeous pile of art and roll around in it so I've made and run for years eight, yes eight, side blogs of danmei art, all with the kind of organization and searchability that twitter can only dream of.

So, if you want to flood your dash with fanart (or if you're an artist and want a little assist getting more eyes on your work now that you're posting here - you can DM me or @/me), why not consider giving a follow to...

I tag extensively - you can check the pinned post on each blog for currently used trigger warnings (they're consistent across all the blogs) and many of the other tags I use for characters, ships, etc., and I strongly encourage you to use the tags to find That Rare Thing You Love, and also to blacklist anything that's not your thing. Antis kindly fuck off challenge.

Saw a pic that reminded me of my favorite head-canon-i-forget-isnt-canon for TGCF.

Hua Cheng chose the San Lang form because that's how he wishes he looked when he first met Xie Lian. Like, Xie Lian is 17, a prince, an amazing martial artist, dressed in the finest robes in the kingdom of Xianle which specifically esteems luxe stuff. And fucking Hua Cheng has to meet him as a ratty little bandaged boy who just fell off a building. Way to fuck up the meet cute huh?

So when he gets a second third fourth look ive lost count okay chance to meet his idol he's had 800 years to imagine how he wishes it could have gone. And he ends up having two competing fantasies:

Fantasy 1: the suave mysterious stranger who sweeps Xie Lian off his feet and leaves him wanting more.

Fantasy 2: the sweet good-looking boy next door, about the same age, knowledgeable enough to impress this prince who's strengths are physical and social.

And Hua Cheng, being the extra ghost king he is, decides - ¿porque no los dos? - and enacts BOTH those fantasies.

(Something something not all eggs in one basket?)

And that's why San Lang Looks Like That.

My #1 post of 2022

Sometimes I think this is the darkest timeline and then I see the New York Times literally sharing Goncharov fanart

(art is credited to Elena Asofsky, no idea what their Tumblr name is, sorry. Article is here.)

...and I realize that the timeline can always get darker. (but it will never be as dark as the end of Goncharov, wtf was up with that?)

#op manga, #chapter xxxx for manga panels

#op sbs for the extra data Oda gives us with each volume

🔸 About derivative works

✔️ You liked an idea I had and want to expand on it? You didn't like the way I ended a story and want to fix it? Go wild, have fun! Fanart, translations and podfics are happily welcomed too! Just tell me beforehand so I know about your work and I can link it into mine, and I'll also ask that you credit my work for inspiration too.

Caveat : I'd prefer all derivative works to be posted on AO3 (their "Related Works" system is great, let's use it), but I may give permission to post them on another platform too.

TL;DR : I'm pretty chill, so reach out to me before you do anything with my fics, please, and thank you.

❌ That being said, I do not, ever, consent to my works being reposted on Wattpad or FanFiction.net! I have accounts on both sites, and I will report if need be. (That includes translations and podfics, I'm familiar with DMCA takedown requests and I will fill new ones if necessary.)

💀 Don't feed anything I ever write or post into an AI. Period.
