#(And it means alot that people have been so incredibly understanding that I'm not myself at all this past month or so)

[yukikorogashi]

Anyway... thank you.

[1863-project]

so for your poll abt abelism in fandom communities - i voted yes + reblogged but i will say i dont 1000% know im doing this right.

but for my experiences its been a lot of stigmatising of cluster b personality disorders. i have BPD which is already incredibly misunderstood/stigmatised but especially in fandom spaces where its "i headcanon x character w bpd" and immediately met with "no u cant bc ppl w bpd r evil and functionally not even ppl!!! all they do is hurt ppl they care about fuck them fuck ppl w bpd!!!" which

is incredibly harmful, as you'd imagine.

as well, i have autism and suspected schizophrenia and OCD (autism diagnosed, i am working on getting evaluated for schizophrenia and/or OCD) and fandom spaces can be incredibly rude to people with autism. whether it is schizophrenia related or not, i deal with extreme bouts of paranoia. fandom spaces also have a tendency to play into this - ie "joking" threats to be in my walls to hunt me down to kill me because i have a different fandom opinion.

its. alot. and i avoid most fandom spaces because of it.

Anon, I'm so sorry this has been your experience, because it absolutely should not be. This is the entire point of doing the poll and using the data to work on an essay - this behavior needs to be addressed and acknowledged as harmful.

I'm autistic with OCD myself, and this website is definitely bad to people with OCD. The misunderstanding of intrusive thoughts and how so many people become purity police and assume those intrusive thoughts actually mean you want to do something instead of understanding that they cause OCD folks extreme distress and anxiety is really, really harmful. And don't get me started on autism - I've been out in the real world doing self-advocacy for over a decade now, and the way a lot of people in fandom spaces treat autism is abysmal - there's even a lot of internalized ableism on that front, i.e. "I can't be ableist because I'm also disabled!" We all have internalized ableism to work through because of the world we live in.

Cluster B personality disorders and psychotic disorders get it the worst, though, with people treating those with them as "inhuman" and "evil" more often than not. No one is inherently more "evil" than anyone else. A personality disorder doesn't necessarily indicate that a person is bad. A psychotic disorder doesn't, either. BPD in particular actually makes a person very vulnerable to being abused due to the nature of how it works, but people love ignoring that part.

RE: people using your paranoia to send hateful anons, be really careful about what you share about yourself online. If you give too much information about what specifically can be used to hurt you, some people will absolutely do it. I know I may sound like an overly cautious adult to many of you (I'm 34), but when I was a teenager, we didn't put any personal information online in order to keep ourselves safe. If you aren't talking to people you really trust, don't necessarily share that information, because people are often cruel when they feel they can be so without any repercussions. Don't put all your triggers in your Carrd, don't make massive DNIs with all of the things that can hurt you in them - just use the block button and protect yourselves. Not everyone is acting in bad faith, and indeed, most humans aren't, but there are always some who will, and if they know how to hurt you or get back at you, they won't hesitate to hit where it hurts.

I'm sorry you have to remove yourself from fandom spaces just to feel safe, anon. It really isn't fair and you should be allowed to have a safe experience too.

[ronkeyroo]

We've never met.

Every once in a while I send you anons to let you know how much I appreciate your posts.

I fell in love with your art and skyrim posts, but I appreciate you talking about your health, too.

I can relate.

I think what I have relates to muscle tension. The pain is almost constant and I can feel myself getting worse. Being like this feels lonely. Nobody really gets it. What's it like being in pain like this. Or the dreadful feeling of feeling your body failing.

Thank you. Really, thank you.

Wish you the best. Hope you like the crabs 🦀

I may not know you anon, and may not be able to pinpoint which of the exact tenderness you've sent my way has been yours - But regardless I feel and appreciate you for it all so dearly much.

I never...Expected to mean so much to people over Tumblr the way I did in the short while I was here. My art, my passions, all of the sillyness and good times we've shared has been and become so incredibly meaningful for me; Getting to share those joys with you all, to connect with new people, to reconnect to the wonderlust of art and community after having that part of me wounded for so long - Its the very reason why every single time I fell under and lost my ability to have all that, I hurt so badly. It feels shameful to admit, like Im some broken, fucked up record...But god how deeply I yearn for all of this to stay, how deeply I wish I never got this sick that I can barely keep such an important part of my life alive for longer.

Not many know how fast my life has changed the past years, especially under the sudden sickness I've been diagnosed with. The struggles and victories alike i've went through as well as the magnitude behind everything I feel; So many things completely derailed everything into chaos, and yet I kept doing my best to shield everyone from the ugly parts of how badly it hurt me until I couldnt any longer. I've struggled with mental health my entire life to the point that living was nothing but survival, I never realized how badly I took my body for granted until the moment it couldnt carry me anymore, until It got so sick that I can barely get out of bed to pursue living itself. I cannot describe the staggering, paralyzing fear this breeds.

Anon, im so so sorry that you too share a similar pain, im aching and cursing that we and many others have to undergo such struggles. I agree with what you say, that this is a whole new different type of helplessness that not many people can understand...I can only encourage people developing a deeper sense of sensitivity around this subject, implore them to remember how important it is to give the right space and care for both body and mind. After everything I've been through, learning how strictly this pain forces us into self compassion, boundaries and self care...I just, I don't want anyone to have to suffer any unnecessary hurt again when going through something like this.

I wish us all every bit of emotional and physical resource, care and inner drive to take care and heal out of this mess. And once again - I thank you from the bottom of my heart for finding strenght and joy in one another, be in in my posts or my art or anything else we've gotten to share together in this corner of our messy, but loveable world.

Im sorry for endiing up with a wall of text Anon, i'm just...It truly, truly all means alot to me, and i wanted to take the heart to express that. Thank you for reaching out, hang on as well, and thank you for the crabs - I love those dancing silly crustations...🦀🦀🦀

[n3v3r-trust-th3-living]

It's of ourse sad seeing beetlejuice leave broadway,but all good things must come to an end one day and it was bound to happen, of course we prolly rather it be later than sooner.

I've been mostly working and keeping to myself but keeping myself updated with the tag and the musical and watching everything close and everyone say goodbye makes me incredibly emotional but im excited for the future of the tour and different productions after as well as possible future beetlejuice media. The tour is coming to my local theater and im incredibly excited to see it with my friend/roomate and making sure to save for seats and merch.

Were of course gonna see the fandom dwindle and die down more than it has because understandably there's no new media of beetlejuice out like before the musical and unfortunately because of precious fandom drama which I deeply regret taking part in. Shifting interests is definitely normal though and even happens to me even earlier in the fandom with some other special interests and hyperfixiations I've had, but I still love beetlejuice so much the musical, movie, and cartoon and despite fandom bullshit in the past the musical has made me so happy and reignited my love for one if my favorite films and my favorite t*m burton film.

Beetlejuice and of course beetlelands means so much to me and i love the musical for also helping me discover beetlelands one if my all time favorite ships and definitely influenced my artistically and made me realize i have a type when it comes to shipping(lol) even though lately I haven't really been able to draw or write much of anything due to personal reason including working alot and to put it lightly being in a slump but beetlelands has given so many ideas for aus and stories abd made me want to write again amongst other things because of my love for all the beetlejuice stories abd how long Beetlejuice has been in my life. And even despite fandom bullshit i appreciate all those things and the good memories i do have of the fandom and making beetlejuice art and stories,etc.

With that being said I really do miss making Beetlejuice art and stories including for all my au's since its a personal favorite hyperfixiation of and special interest of mine and I never really got to do a lot of art and writing of stories i wanted to tell and since its a personal favorite I still have many ideas rattling around in my brain that i'd love to share with anyone who's interested. I've been telling myself I wanted to draw and write for beetlejuice for a while now but in general just have been in a bad me tal place and just not happy with anything I make on top of life with work and other stresses. I cant promise im gonna update this blog very soon but im definitely gonna be here updating with with beetlejuice stuff like my writing, art, etc.

Since Beetlejuice is something that makes me personally happy and has been a favorite of mine for a big part of my life. Due so personal reasons as well its been a little hard to make anything beetlejuice related in the past few months as well een though I really wanted to. Im planning to rewrite and redo some aus, i have some new au ideas abd plenty of stories to tell here in my little Beetlejuice corner so if you're interested ill always be here, maybe alot sometimes I am trying to update stuff more here an make stuff for beetlejuice and beetleands, mostly for myself because it makes me happy but I'm happy when people like my beetlejuice art, writing, au, ideas, etc. And I do really appreciate the few people coming to this blog who like what I post I promise im not ignoring you I've just been burned out emotionally in to many ways and not been the best mentally in a while and I've felt terrible talking about things i was gonna draw/write and not doing it for a long time, not even just for beetlejuice but other fandoms.

And if adults in the fandom want to talk or ask about any of my aus and Beetlejuice stories, have requests, or want to talk beetlejuice or beetlelands my ask box is open I love exchanging ideas, art,stories, roleplaying, etc. I also have my main and a few other fandom blogs here on Tumblr and other sites I'll be on as well if anyone is interested.

Im mainly in a small corner here making my own beetlejuice art that makes me happy though and I do have many things id like to update here including my beetlelands songs of the day au, art, and even some fics when i can get the guts to actually write lol but I've been wanting to put my beetlejuice aus is different forms including trying my hand at writing fics again. I welcome anyone who's interested in that here but this is really mostly for my and what makes me happy and im not interested in any petty fandom drama or fighting tho I just like to mame stuff about my blorbos. Since this is also a general fandom blog for spooky Henry Selick and to a very lesser extent T*m Burton stories and I had previously planned to do a extended universe au type deal there with be other spooky fandoms here like corpse bride, nightmare before christmas, coraline, and even wendell and wild. And any other spooky things related that make me happy so if you're interested I'll be here so stay tuned, and goodbye Beetlejuice broadway! You've been a great part of my life and made me love Beetlejuice even more I look forward to the future of the actors of the musical, the musical when it tours especially when I can see it, and the future of Beetlejuice in general, and eve the possible future of the fandom like hopefully new fans discovering Beetlejuice and old fans re-descovering it or even fans of one of the Beetlejuice medias discovering the other.💜🖤💚🕷

Loved the matchups now can I have a normal one for haikyuu and demon slayer

A male one btw

I'm a straight short girl use she/her pronouns, im around 5'2 with long brown hair and eyes and a leo also a infp,im also ace as for which one im not too sure atm as i just found out not ling ago. I'm 21. I like anime,dragons,reptiles,drawing but I'm not good,tarantulas,sweets,video games, memes,dark humor. I am very kind but I care more about others than I do myself. I have bad anxiety. I tend to overthink about everything. I love to sing especially country music but I am tone deaf. I have trouble standing up for myself because I was bullied alot. I can be very blunt. I also love to swear. I can be very loud. I love a good mystery and cop shows. I love dad jokes and puns.I am terrified of bees and heights. I am very lazy but I can be good at doing stuff if motivated. , unless I know it will happen or if I touch someone. I accidentally snap at people and I find people's pain hilarious so if someone gets hurt there is a good chance I will laugh at them. I sound meaner than intended sometimes. I can have trouble showing that im thankful at times. I pick at scabs as a nervous habit. I love to add alot of lemon juice to my tea to where it's more lemon than tea. When I'm woken up early with low sleep I am very mean and grumpy. I cant tell when people are joking and take it seriously. I do have asphergers which is a form of autism. Becuase of it I am a very picky person with foods and such.

I am very kind but people take advantage of it and I don't usually fight back. I also have adhd and I can go on forever about something but I don't know when to stop and should be told to if it's getting annoying. I have self esteem issues at times as well.

I am a bit overweight it isn't shown well I have thick thighs and am just a but chubby around the stomach it isn't noticeable unless I wear somethign small I usually wear large t-shirts.I have a few weird talents. I can put my foot behind my head while standing and both while sitting down. I can burp for 14 seconds. I have been told I have resting bitch face. When someone stops talking to me my attention goes to something else so I won't be able to hear what they said if they say something again so I end up saying what alot cause I loose focus easily. I am incredibly stubborn if I want something done.

For dislikes I don't like people who don't understand that I'm different and ignore my sensitivities. I also don't like smoking it bothers me. For my love languages im not too sure probably gift giving or quality time as I love to just laze around in bed and play games.

༺❀༻ matchup ༺❀༻

haikyuu one

honestly i was going to match you with issei.

but daichi is definitely a better fit. he’s a sexy cop man that’s all I can say. but listen issei is also just as sexy and working in a funeral is sexy.

anyways daichi. he’d think your adoration for dragons and reptiles are pretty damn cool just like your drawings. because headcanon he can’t draw for shit and even if he did try it still wouldn’t look like what he’d want.

i also can’t keep thinking about how daichi low key looks like thomas crusader. if not by looks then definitely the vibes. idk that’s just my random take.

anyways your humor and his humor certainly don’t fit like puzzle pieces. but he’d try to understand dark humor which honestly he still wouldn’t find funny. though if it’s a funny meme then what the hell. he’ll give a good deep of a laughter. but he can’t resist a good dad joke and actually would be clever enough to come up with new ones when you guys are taking a stroke in some place.

he’d be weary of you about not fully putting yourself first than others, and he’ll remind you that. he’d make sure you’re taking care of yourself and even if it’s difficult he’ll be there to motivate you. after all you are talking to a former volleyball captain. it’s only natural he’s good with words and motivations of that sorts.

when you overthink he’ll hear you out but pull you back into reality. and tell you to take everything one step at a time. no matter how much you’re thinking about something, the moment you start getting ahead of yourself daichi would pull you out of the loop hole and take time to live in the moment and critically think about things one step at a time and make sure those steps aren’t just empty words but actions as well.

you’re bluntness might scare him, but honestly it’s more of the fact that he appreciates you for it. not many people who say they’re blunt are blunt. he’d also completely ignore you swearing. not that he’s got a problem he just wouldn’t care for it unless if it’s around his parents then he’ll have a word with you elsewhere. really playing that cop fantasy.

as mean as you may portray or perceive yourself daichi knows you’ve got a good heart. and even though it’ll take time for him to actually understand everything about you, just know in those times of being together he’s got insane patience and will never ignore you sensitivities. and like any decent human being will always accept you for who you are and will help you get better because you make them feel like they can also better themselves.

daichi even as great of a motivator as he is sucks at getting motivated. that’s only a joke though but if you give him something in exchange or even a simple talk in quality time he’ll forever be grateful to you. and also i will like to add quality time with you and daichi is watching action acclaimed shows and movies especially ones with cops and he’d play judge and see how well thought out and played the roles of the law are.

Oh boy! We're doin a sequel🤣 im gonna start this off with the "heavy" stuff plaguing my mind and then get into the school update. Well first and foremost i deleted that awful bird app, or as elon muskrat wants it to be called "X" its genuinly one of the most hateful and toxic things. I dont for the life of me understand how someone can be so horrid over screens as if there isnt a person on the other end, we are always taught to "treat someone how you wanna be treated" but a screen changes that? A screen makes you feel like you should hurt others? For what? Does it make them feel good? Being mean? I dont understand why just because someone is different, someone likes something you dont, why someone who loves someone of the same gender, why does any of that matter? Why do people care so much about something that physically doesnt affect them? And why do people activly try to prevent it? I know so many incredible people who are different to me in so many ways but isnt the beauty of life finding those people? You get to see their experiences, how they see the world and how theyve lived, if theyre artists you physically get to see these things, to hear those things through song or books, through drawings and paintings, photography. We are all different, we all see everything different, we all experience things different, how is that not so cool? Why in this day in age are we still so closed minded to people being different from us, if we all were the same life would be so boring and dull, its all the unique people that make this world give colour and life, why are we discouraging that? If ypu cant tell, it bothers me alot. I will always stand with the LGBTQ+ community, trans rights will always be human rights. Being true to who you are shouldnt make you any less human just because some closed minded people say so, i refuse to be part of the group moving backwards in that direction.

Anyways. School update, ive gotten to try out a bunch of new mediums! Ive done some stuff with acrylics, inks, watercolour markers, coloured pencil, pen, carving with lino and making prints with it, clay, sewing (actually learned how to sow and its so relaxing??) and fabrics so much cool stuff, ive been drawing basically daily this whole time which is so nice! After not having time or being able to i feel like im falling in love with art again and I'm finding myself wanting to draw more and more each day, i feel like im improving abit too! Which is the first time in a while🤣 im enjoying it! I know im not even close to being the best but im getting somewhere! I know comparison is the thief of joy and i need to get better at actually understanding that but we will get there!! I will leave this post here, if you someone read this entire thing, thank you for listening to my ramblings🤣 hopefully the next update wont be in another 40 days🤣

[justmeinadaze]

Hi!! I just wanted to let you know how much the Head Filled with Demons series means to me. My Dad also died a couple years back from COVID and he was a full time caretaker for my terminally ill mother, so when he died I’ve been her caretaker ever since. It was so isolating, I lost all my friends and had to leave college and work because keeping her alive took up my entire day every day. Things are getting better in the regards my Mom is in long term care at a facility because she outgrew what I could do alone, but I just resonate with the story beyond what I ever could have imagined. Every detail is like it cuts through me, not in a triggering way since I’m finally at a point where I’m starting to heal, but in a way that’s validating and kind of helps heal me because it provides a way to relive my experience if I had a support system at the end of it.

O hope this comes off as the compliment I mean it to be!! Your story really spoke to me and I would love to be added to the tag list for the series! If you ever need someone to talk to about your struggles or your parents, idk how much this means coming from a stranger but as someone who has lived the same experience I’ll always be here for you.

Our experience is incredibly unique. Everyone expects their parents to die before them, but never like this. Never before their time, slowly through illness yet still not leaving you any resources or time to prepare. It’s something no one else could ever understand unless they lived it and so if you ever need comfort in someone who understands I’ll always be here to provide that if I can.

My name is Mimi, by the way!! I hope that you have an absolutely beautiful day and I’m going to probably binge some more of your writing :)

Mimi you beautiful angel❤.

First and foremost I am genuinely sorry that you had to experience that grief. Grief in any form whether it be a death or even a disconnect from a parent thats no longer around but still alive just cuts deep. When I lost my father no one explained anything to me.

I was told that you get two weeks to "properly grieve" and then you gotta get back out there. After those 2 weeks passed I remember constantly thinking "What's wrong with me? Why am I still so sad?" After 6 months, it just spiraled from there because I felt so alone. Everyone went back to their lives and I was just sitting here like "How can the world continue being normal when NOTHING is normal anymore?!"

After 2 years and some personal experiences I learned that what I was feeling was normal and worked to be more vulnerable when it comes to those things. I told myself I wanted to share those feelings because I never wanted someone to feel as empty and alone as I did.

It's been almost 10 years since I lost my father and I still miss him. Some days it still hurts just as bad as the day we lost him. Some days I just break and that's ok. All of that is ok.

I hope you know how amazing you are. Not just because you took care of your parents but also because of the strength you had to and still have to utilize everyday when it comes to those responsibilities as well the emotions you have to carry when it comes to everything involving your parents and a society that isnt quiet up to speed when it comes to grief.

Now please forgive me if some of that went off on a tangent or didnt make sense lol because of my PTSD sometimes I struggle to convey what I'm thinking. Writing these fics here has actually helped alot with that and having people on here validate and reiterate that I'm not alone in how I feel or think❤.

I'm always here if you need to talk as well and I appreciate you so much for reading my writings and your compliment.

Whacky Gotham, Goofy New York, and Chaotic Paris.

(Part 1) (Part 2) (Part 3) (Part 4) (Part 5) (Part 6) (Part 7)

Chapter 5: Then Let The Games Begin

•—–—–·†·–—–—•

Soooo, the Batfam is panicking, Gotham's confused as to why Iron Man is flying over Gotham like a madman, and Maria is with two of Gotham's Sirens (but only Ivy and Harley know this) having a wonderful time playing with Bud and Lou.

Let's start with the Sirens.

Harley is watching over Maria and Tikki as they sleep with Bud and Lou, Ivy walkes over to sit next to Harley, handing her a cup of tea.

"So, what's the diagnosis?" - Ivy

"She has some sort of trauma, has class issues... and handles more than she should, but still does everythin', on top of bein' a hero. She's been through some sh-t Pam." Yeah Harley may have found out Maria's a hero (if the tiny god and magic were anything to go by).

"Is she alone?" - Ivy

"No, thankfully, she has supportive parents, and friends that aren't little sh-ts. I think they're also heroes, she also has a lot, and I a mean A LOT of pent up emotions, she doesn't show anythin' negative, only positive things. She seems to shrink in on herself if she thinks she does somethin' wrong. Pam, we both know there's a limit to how much crap a person can take before they snap, and she's such a sweet kid. There has to be somethin' we can do to help her Ives." Ok she found out alot, but in Marias' defense, they have trustworthy souls, and they were the only other people (besides her friends) that she talked to about it, yes she had her Maman and Uncle to talk about hero stuff, but for the stuff her class does, she only ever vented (without being negative) to her friends.

"Her class is visiting the Botanical Gardens in three days, and it's a 2 part tour, so we can see just what's going on. If it's bad then we scare them a bit, if it's bad bad... they can handle a few slightly poisonous plants right?" - Ivy

"God I love the way ya think Ives, do ya think she can stay with us? I mean look at how cute she is with Bud and Lou... Oh my god, she's cuddlin' dem, and ya gave her a flower crown, how'd I miss that?! Where's the camera?"

Harley took a picture to remind her of this wonderful moment. As Ivy and Harley looked at the picture, they both promised to keep Maria safe, and maybe become sorta kinda-ish parents to her while she's in Gotham.

•—–·Now back to the Bat-Chaos Bat-Cave·–—•

Tim took over the chair and was now searching the possible locations with Jarvis, Damian was sitting on a different chair, trying to act cool, but he wouldn't stop looking over at Tim, to see his progress. Bruce was talking over the comms with Tony. Dick and Jason, weren't helping (they kept feeding each other worse and worse ideas of what could have happened to Maria). Then they heard Jarvis speak.

"I have found the most likely area Ms. Dupain-Cheng would be in. Her phone died about 56 blocks away from her hotel, if we don't count kidnapping, or murder, she would have thought about asking for directions, but may have decided not to considering the city she is in. So that leaves us with a possible 15-25 mile radius from her last known location. I think it best to divide into groups of two, have Oracle stay and update you if anything on security, and or traffic cameras happens. Bruce will be with Tony, Dick will go with Tim, and Jason will go with Damain to search within the area. Stephanie and Cassandra will search around a 5 mile radius near Wayne hotel." as Jarvis continued to explain the other details, the Batfam began to suit up, Batman met up with Iron Man, and they took the North area, Nightwing and Red Robin took the East area, while Red Hood and Robin searched the South. Steph and Cass were on foot in civilian clothes, searching the West area they were assigned.

They searched for the whole day, and came up with nothing. Until Oracle saw a video from a traffic cam around 9pm, 15 blocks away from where her phone died. She called it in and everyone went back to the cave. Once everyone was at the Bat-Computer, Oracle pressed play, the cameras didn't have sound, and it wasn't close enough to see if she was ok.

They watched as she went to an overgrown parking lot and sat down. She was looking down at the ground, and that's when they spotted two figures round the corner and spot her. They watched as the two figures approach Maria, and saw the startled reaction she had. They realized it was Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy that were talking to her, then they saw Maria collapse. They watched as Harley made sure she was ok, looking over to Ivy before looking back to Maria and picking her up. The last thing they saw, was Maria being carried away by two of Gothams' most dangerous rouges, but now they knew where to look next.

•—–· Back to Ivy and Harley ·–—•

Harley continued to take adorable pictures of the children.

"God, they're so f-ckin' cute!" - Harley for the 20th time

As Ivy continued to watch while caring for her plants, Catwoman walked in.

"Hey girls, got the stuff for movie night, so what are we- Holy mother of cats! He adopted another f-cking child didn't he! Where the hell does he keep finding them?! 7 was ment to be the god DAMN LIMIT!!!" - Catwoman

Maria jumped at the sudden shouting and may have accidentally summoned a yo-yo (one made useing creation magic and protection magic) before saying.

"Tikki where's the akuma?! How long was I out?! Forget it Tikki spot-" she then realized she wasn't in Paris, and seeing a new face, she also realized she just spilled her secret to another person within the same day... kinda

"Fffffffffffudge sunday that fell on the pavement!" - Maria shouted in baker profanities

"That's not how ya curse sweetheart. It should go more like-" Harley was cut off by a vine Ivy had summoned.

"Harley, cursing makes the plants sad, you know this." - Ivy said removing the vine

Harley just walked over to Maria and whipsered it in her ear.

"You're supposed to say it more like this, ' ..... .... ... .. ....... .. ... .....' ok?" - Harley ended with a big smile

"... I will never see this world in the same frickin' light ever again." - Maria

"ehh close enough." - Harley

"Can someone please tell me, WTH is going on here, on our special girls day off?!" - Catwoman

"She is a new member of the Sirens as of today, and as a member, she's unda our protection, so effective immediately." - Harley

"Cool." - Maria

"Harley." - Ivy

"Wut... first things first, if she is going to join, she needs to be very flexible, know how to fight, and be incredibly intelligent." - Catwoman

"She beat Ed's @ss with a gun pointed at her, and solved every riddle with ease, so I'm positive she'll be an amazin' addition to the team." - Harley

'God she sounds like a new mother now' "But we don't know how good her flexibility is." - Catwoman

"I know, hey Maria, ya wanna do some tricks with me, of course we need to stretch first, but do ya wanna give it a go?" - Harley

"Sure." - Maria

Ivy and Catwoman sat down on a couch a few feet away from where Maria and Harley stood in the empty part of the building. They started out with stretches, and to Catwoman's surprise (and Harley's delight) Maria copied Harleys streches perfectly.

"Ok, now that that's done, we'll start with some cartwheels, then move on to flips, then handsprings and so on." - Harley

Maria gave Harley a nod... and they were off... literally, Harley did a cartwheel into a handspring, and a few backflips, Maria executed it flawlessly. Harley did some more complicated gymnastics tricks, and Maria did it, Harley did triple backflips going into a cartwheel, into a summersault, and Maria did that perfectly as well. This went on until both Harley and Maria were slightly out of breath, both having massive smiles on their faces.

"Ives, please let her join, she's like a mini me." - Harley then hugged Maria and they somehow both tripled in cuteness as they both did puppy (or Puss In Boots style) eyes at Catwoman and Ivy.

"Sure Harley." - Ivy said walking over to give Harley a small kiss on the cheek.

"Okay... but she doesn't have a costume yet, and she still has to think of a name for herself." - Catwoman

"Is a mouse good, like a mouse themed costume, that or a Turtle themed one. What do you think Harley?" - Maria

"Mmmm, I like that with the mouse you can always toy with Cat, ya know, cat an' mouse stuff, turtle seems... weird even fawh Gotham, so personally I would pick mouse, just because of the cheesy jokes you could do." - Harley

"Very funny, ok then, give me a moment."  Maria then reached out her hand, her eyes then started to glow an icy blue, and a small portal opened in front of her, she reached in and pulled out a small pendant necklace. After she put it on a small mouce appeared and greated itself, Marias' eyes going back to normal after closing the portal.

"Hello I'm Mullo, nice to meet you all."

"Omg omg omg, It's soooo f-ckin' CUTE!" - Harley

"Best to assume all of them are extremely cute Harls." - Ivy

"What the Hell did I miss in the week I was gone?!" - Catwoman

"Ehh, not much, oh but Iron Man did fly aroun' Gotham a few times earlier this mornin' like a madman." - Harley

"Oh sh-t." - Maria

"Maria are ya ok? That was ya first official proper curse in my presence." Harley said looking over to the girl.

"He's gonna kill me." - Maria

"Wait, what do you mean Marigold?" - Ivy

"... He's my Uncle, and I never got to text him I was ok, since my phone died before I met you." - Maria

"Hey, I'm sure he'll understand, now what are we watchin'?" - Harley

"I think we have more important matters other than movies at the moment!" - Catwoman

"Ok, Me Myself and Irene it is." - Harley

"No! You basically kidnapped Iron Mans' NIECE!!!" - Catwoman

"Technically, she fainted and us bein' the good Gothamites we are, decided to take her with us, to make sure she was a-okay." - Harley

"I'm ganna need more than just a six pack of soda to get me through this... Just put the movie on already." - Catwoman

Catwoman sat at the far left end of the couch, next to her sat Ivy, then Maria, and then Harley, Bud and Lou by their feet. All of them sharing one big blanket (Becuase if Iron Man did show up, or any of the birds, then Maria was in a protective burrito and they may not see her right away) and they started the movie.

•—–·–—•

"Oh god, the poor cow." - Maria

.........

"Hahahaha, he stuck a whole f-ckin' chicken head in that guys @ss" - Harley

"The poor chicken." - Maria

"Maria you don't want to see this part." - Ivy then lightly covered her eyes for the ehem, chicken extraction.

.........

"Anyone up for another movie?" - Harley

"That depends." - Ivy

"Any suggestions Cat?" - Harley looked across to the other end of the couch to see Catwoman already sleeping.

"She took her cat-nap already? Seriously?" - Harley

"... What about Pirates of The Caribbean?" - Maria

"I'm good with that." - Ivy

And they started the next movie, Maria was happy, it felt like when her maman and papa would sleep with her when she made a pillow fort. It was a loving atmosphere, it felt safe, and nothing could ruin it. Marias' eyes became heavy, and she leaned her head on Harleys' shoulder, falling asleep after a few minutes.

Ivy paused the move looking over to see both Harley and Maria sleeping, soon Ivy also fell asleep in the comfortable silence.

…………………………

Around an hour later Maria woke up in a panic, she had a nightmare, and kept looking around frantically for someone with tears running down her face.

"What's the matter hun?" - Harley said looking around to see if someone had gotten in. When she looked back at Maria she saw that she was crying.

"What happened?" Harley asked in a kind voice that was filled with motherly love.

"I, just *hic* had a bad dream that's *hic* all, I'm fine." - Maira said trying to wipe the tears away.

"You're ok, I promise nothin's goin' to happen to ya as long as Ivy and I are here, ok hun?" - Harley hugged Maria, and she could feel the girl let out a few more sobs, and quick breathes.

"Thanks Maman." Maria didn't even realize what she had said, it just felt natural for her to say it.

"You're welcome hun." 'Omg I'm gonna cry, she called me maman!' Harley rubbed small circles over Marias' back, and began humming until she fell asleep, she continued to hug Maria until she also fell asleep.

•—–· Back to the Chaos Bat-Cave ·–—•

"What do you mean she's with two of Gotham City's Sirens?!" - Tony

"Tony, calm down, I'll call Selina, she can talk to them and get this all sorted out." - Bruce

"Your fiancee is a Gotham Siren too?! Why didn't you tell me?!" - Tony

"Why isn't she picking up? And unlike some people, this family doesn't like outing our secret identities... on live TV." - Bruce

"Oh well excuse me for not keeping my secret identity a SECRET!" - Tony

"I'll try calling her one more time." - Bruce

"Bruce, it's 3am. Who in their right mind ever stays up this late.... aside from this family." - Tim with a giant coffee mug in hand.

"... I'll just call her one more time." Bruce then connected it to the Bat-Computer so everyone could hear.

•—–· Back to the Sirens ·–—•

Catwoman's phone is ringing like crazy, waking everyone up, including a tired, annoyed, and confused Selina.

"Wth does he want at 3 in the morning?!" - Selina

"Just answer it so we can keep sleepin'." - Harley still hugging Maria

"I'm putting it on speaker, so you lot can testify against his @ss in court, for disturbing the peace."

•—–· Over to Batsy ·–—•

"Selina I need to ask-"

"WHAT THE F-CKING HELL DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND ABOUT A GOOD NIGHTS REST!" - Selina

"Oooooh, she sounds pissed Bruce." - Jason

"I'm sorry to call you at this hour, but we need to find a girl that looks just like every single one of my other kids." - Bruce

"Bruce... I thought we agreed that 7 kids was. the. f-cking. limit." - Selina

•—–· Back to the Sirens ·–—•

Selina looked over to Maria before muting the speaker.

"Do you want them to know you're here Kitten?" - Selina

"... I'm tired, I haven't had coffee, I have no filter, so f-ck it, act like you never saw me today, and let them drown in chaos. " - Maria

"I think I like filter less Maria." - Harley

"Okay." Selina shrugged her shoulders and then un-muted her phone, putting it back on speaker mode.

"Where was she last seen?" - Selina

"She was last seen with Harley and Poison Ivy, I want you to see if she's still with them." - Bruce

Selina looked over to Maria and Harley, both of them shook their heads with mischievous grins.

"I've been with them all day, and I haven't once seen a girl that looks like your kids. Now can I go back to sleep, and forget this ever happened?" - Selina

"WHERE IS MY NIECE!!!" - Tony

"Oh, hey Tony, didn't know you were there, don't know who, or where your niece is, but good luck trying to find her. Oh and Bruce, I'm shutting my phone off so you don't keep calling till the butt crack of dawn. And congrats it's now 4am. you owe me a lunch date, uh-ba-bye." Selina then hung up her phone and turned it off.

"That went pretty well if you ask me, now I'm going back to sleep." - Selina

•—–· Back to Batsy ·–—•

The room was silent for a few minutes before Jason spoke up.

"Does that mean that Pixiepop ran away and is even more lost now?!" - Jason

"Oh god, what do we do, what if she got hurt?!" - Dick

"What if she got kidnapped?!" - Jason

"What if she's with a big time Gotham Villain?!" - Dick

"... What if she got more coffee?" - Tim

"Oh Hell No" - Jason/Dick

"... Lets all go to sleep, and when we wake up, we'll head over to their base and double check. She could've just said that because I called her at 3am." - Bruce

"But my niece is still out there!" - Tony

"You're going to sleep Tony." - Pepper then dragged Tony to his room.

•—–· Back to Maria ·–—•

Selina went to a different part of the building, where Maria assumed the bedrooms were. Ivy had gone to the greenhouse to be with the plants, and now it was just her and Harley left on the couch, and she couldn't sleep.

"... Harley?" - Maria

"Yeah hun?" - Harley

"I can't sleep." - Maria

"Well, watcha wanna do till ya get tired?" Harley asked sitting up a little straighter to get a better look at Maria.

Maria gave a sly smile, and looked Harley in the eyes "Want to go free-running on the rooftops?"

"... Alright, but lets get some coffee, and a snack in us first." - Harley gave her a side hug, before getting up to go make the coffee, and grab some snacks.

After they had their coffee, they climbed to the roof of the base. Harley was in her outfit, bat in hand and ready to do some bonding.

"So, how does ya outfit work?" - Harley

"Like so, ready Mullo?" - Maria

"Yes Maria" - Mullo

"Ok, Mullo, Get Squeaky!" A bright light flashes, and when Harley could see again, Maria was in a dark gray suit, wearing black knee high boots, with a strip of pink at the knee, and black elbow length gloves with the same pink strip at her elbow. Her mask was a slightly lighter gray on the top part, and pink on the bottom. Her hair was pulled into two buns with pink ribbons that faded to gray, and to black at the very tip. Her jump rope around her waist forming a tail going just below the back of her knees.

"Just when I think ya can't get any more adorable. So what should I call ya?" - Harley

"You can call me Multimouse." - Maria

Soon they were racing and doing tricks off different roofs, they were really enjoying themselves. From one of the roofs they heard a commotion in one of the alleys, when they looked down they saw a man holding a woman at gunpoint.

"Not good, seems like he's got issues, probably lost his lover, most likely has additions to drugs and alcohol, and seems to be a little tipsy." - Harley

"I've got a plan." - Multimouse

…………

Multimouse droped a little way behind the guy, grabbing his attention while Harley got the lady to safety.

"You know there's a help center two blocks from here that would be more than willing to help you." - Multimouse

The crook just raised his gun to her trying to keep it steady as he spoke.

"Give me all your money little girl, or else I'll hurt you."

"1. That's not how you hold a gun. 2. That is no way to treat any girl. and 3. Instead of money, I'll give you my jump rope." - Multimouse

"Why the hell would I want your jump rope, that thing looks worthless." the crook lowered his guard enough as Multimouse pretended to hand over her jump rope, only to use it in a quick motion to dismarm the man, as Harley promptly knocked him out with one swing.

"Lets neva have ya at gunpoint again, okay hun? I'm afraid my heart can't take it." - Harley said while tying the crook to a lamppost.

"Sorry, but it was the best idea I could come up with at the moment, besides, any guy with a gun would feel like they have the upper hand if they're facing a random little girl with a jump rope, rather than Gothams' Harley Quinn with a bat." - Multimouse

"Sadly I'm just too popular with the kiddos on the street." - Harley

…………

They continued to stop a few more muggers on the way back to the base, and when they got back they peaked around the corner to see the whole Batfam plus Iron Man talking with Ivy and Selina.

"How much you want to bet we can get back out before they see us?" - Whispering Multimouse

"... Lets try hidin' in the kitchen." - Whispering Harley

As they tried to sneak by (still in their costumes) Selina just walks over and draggs them to the group.

"Here, now let me sleep!" - Selina

"Dang it Selina we wanted tah see just how long we could hide out in the kitchen!" - Harley

Selina did a double take now realizing they both went out.

"... You didn't." - Selina

"We wanted tah go free-runnin'! So what?" - Harley

"She could've gotten hurt Harls." - Ivy

"My suits magic, I am invulnerable to bullets, normal magic, swords, knifes, anything staby staby, and I can withstand any temperature in it." Multimouse said with a slight pout.

"Hold up, is she a magical girl?" - Red Hood in the background

When Selina let go both Harley and Multimouse went behind Ivy for protection.

"We can still make a run for it." - Harley whispered to Multimouse

"... Ok, I'll meet you on the roof." - Whispering Multimouse

Harley gave a nod as she slowly inched her wasy closer to the door that lead to the roof, as she saw Iron Man approach Multimouse.

"Please get out of your suit, we need to talk about why you're here-" - Iron Man

"Multitute!" - Multimouse

Harley then saw Multimouse shrink into dozens of tiny little versions of herself as her clones spread out in all directions, one of which was heading right for her.

"Wth, you never told us she could use magic!" - Red Robin

Harley picked her up, and slipped through the door without anyone noticing.

"That was great, but how do ya get back tuh normal size?" - Harley

"Simple, I just merge back with my clones." As she said this, all her clones came back, and she merged with herself, becoming normal sized again.

"Where to?" - Multimouse

………… So now The Batfam is trying to find many long gone Mini-Multimouses, and Harley seems to have disappeared with her. Harley and Multimouse are now running over the roofs, heading for Wayne Manor.

"So why are we going to Wayne Manor?" - Multimouse

"Because, Batsy will neva think of lookin' for us at his own home, at least not fawh a little while." - Harley

When they arrived at the Manor, Multimouse de-transformed as Harley knocked on the door.

"Ms. Quinn, Ms. Maria, pleasure to see you here, please come in." - Alfred

"Are any of the bat-birds here?" - Harley

"Ms. Barbara, Ms. Stephanie, and Ms. Cassandra are the only ones here at the moment." - Alfred

"Do ya think you can keep us bein' here a secret from Batsy?" - Harley

"Harley? What are you doing here with Maria?" - Barbara

"It seems that Ms. Harley and Ms. Maria are now playing hide and seek with the rest of the family." - Alfred

"Did someone say hide and seek?" - Steph

"Yes, so could we maybe try and keep this a secret from everyone else, please?" - Maria

"Sure, it was starting to get boring around here. We can all hide in the living room no one ever use. Barbara you show them the way, I'll get the food/drinks and boardgames." - Steph

"Is this alright with you Alfred?" Maria

"It's all right Ms. Maria, you can hide out in the old living room." - Alfred

"Thanks Alfie, ya the best." - Harley

"Thank you Alfred." - Maria

"Ok then, follow me." - Barbara

…………

In the old living room, Harley, Maria, Barbara, Steph, and Cass began to formulate a plan.

"Ok, so the best way for them to never find you is to have your phone off, stay away from any and all cameras, and show your face to no one." - Steph

"So, do you have anything in mind that you might want to do?" - Barbara

"Can we put them on a wild goose chase?" - Maria

Cass nodded to Marias' suggestion approvingly.

"I can hack a few traffic cams to help with that." - Barbara

"We can also throw in some useless hints, to throw dem even further off our scent." - Harley

"Good idea Harley." - Barbara

"Thanks, but how long do ya think we should make it last?" - Harley

"As long as Maria wants it to." - Barbara

"Then let the games begin." - Maria.

[ackermanshoe]

Edited lmao: warning this is kinda pointless and alot of farfetched theory and a veryyy long post please read at your own risk 🤡

Edit again: my analysis when I started it 1 month ago: 👩‍💼🖨️📇✒️🖋️✏️

My post now: 🤡🤡🤡🕯️🕯️🤡

Edit: I started writing this like ages ago but I don't see my own point with this writting and I'm editing it after reading @nini14 's Ackerman breaking the cycle analysis and I feel like both of these go hand in hand. So without further ado:

Triangles

Let's see as we all are made aware that aot significantly revolves around trios of friends such as the following :

Although these are the main trios that is noticeable, other trios can be made out by taking some characters from their original trios to make trios based on looks / character and dynamics. And this is where my argument comes in with this trio:

Their dynamic has always been mother father and son. Now let me explain, idk if anyone has heard about the drama triangle but here

These terms can be applied to MLE trio, Levi being the persecutor, Mikasa is the rescuer and the victim being Eren. In the first 3 seasons at least, Eren was being taken away and his decisions constently put him in danger, Levi being the persecutor who always gives Eren what he deserves for being a pain the ass and Mikasa being the rescuer always siding with Eren and protecting him no matter what. Do you see it?

This is Mikasa to a T.

The following is an example of the dad being the rescuer and the son "junior" being a victim, and much like Eren, could possibly refuse the hand that is helping him.

So that being said now that we have an understanding of their dynamics in the relationship, let's get back to understanding a triangle. Did you know triangles are one of the strongest shape because it has three sides that rely on each other hence shifting their energies on to each side and it makes the perfect shape for a bridge, architectures favourite. Why am I tell you this?

Because these dynamics that every trio is made up of in aot is because they have strong relationships.

Someone mentioned isayama loves putting move triangles and I couldn't help but agree, look at how many times he has placed Eren historia and an angry Mikasa? And subtly he has always ( to me at least) hinted the love triangle between Levi Mikasa and Eren, outside of their father-mother-son dynamic. Personally this makes sense to me the most, fueled by mikasa's dream. A choice was there to make and she unknowingly chose Levi.

Now this brings me to the death of all the trios Levi has been part of, from Isabel & Farlan to hanjo & Erwin to where we are now. Our situation before S4 was EMA+Levi = 4 people but we all know that a square isn't as strong as a triangle so something shifted. Eren, even with him in it Armin and him were more connected as for Levi and Mikasa as a pair it was more obvious. Especially in the conversation EMA had in that stare place as depicted on @gilly-bj 's analysis on similarities between rivamika and Mika's parents. Not only was Mikasa placed directly next to Levi although being feets apart in reality but her lines "another conversation only you two understand" it. Visually and verbally divided Mikasa from Eren and Armin and connected her to Levi. Both alone.

Yet another triangle placed by isayama intentionally or not is Armin Mikasa and Levi.

Because a triangle represents the process of recycle and reuse it also represent the cycle of life, an on going thing that doesn't stop, a history that repeats itself. And going back to Ackerman finally breaking this cycle of tragic fate, will they?

The fact that the whole manga series start at chapter 0 is very suspicious in it self. Why does it isyamaa? A 0, a circle that comes back around? A 0 which represents both the ending and the beginning? Why is the 1st chapter called "to you, 2000 years from now"? ( That's such a fucking impactful chapter name gives me chills )

Before my theory start I just wanna add that the story started from a narrative perspective makes me wanna believe in rivamika even more. Did eldians share the same fate in 2000 years? Who knows, but I know for sure Erens and mikasa's dynamic as the impulsive hotheaded doer and their protective calm but strong friend thinker will continue forever just like the never ending triangles.

I forgot all these ppls names on chaoter 0 so PLS bare with me.

The main dude who heavily resembles Mikasa even tho he is a man, has a incredible power just like the Ackerman's as a human AND he can shift into a titan???? Last time I checked weren't Ackerman's the bio product of titans? Remember is science is on a ongoing journey and forever progressing towards the impossible ;)

Hmmm

The little girl who resembles Gabi, who has the same dynamic as Eren, the girl also looks up to his inhumanly powers, a little too much alike Eren's idolisation of Levi ( and looking up to Mikasa's strength I think )?

Lastly, chapter 0 makes me believe it was set in the future. Look at the buildings, 2 story buildings I don't remember seeing buildings like this in the pre time skip era have you? I could be wrong tho.

If Isayama is as smart as we think he is then he might have related this chapter to the whole plot of aot. 🤷 Or it could mean something. And here's where my theory comes in and it may not be the most favourable for eldians. Let me start with the good part tho, the guy who looked like Mikasa is could be a descendant from the Ackerman clan, but he isn't half and half like Mikasa and Levi, he's full blooded. Which might be why he has the power to shift ( idk this kinda don't make sense since Mikasa and Levi can't buy hush )

So let's say rivamika got married had a family they always wanted and had the peaceful life and 2000 years from then this guy^ existed. Oddly familiar to great great great grammakasa 💀💀.

The cycle never ended for eldians, the whole world could still be mad at them for Erens action and has the prejudice against them for a long time. And the fact that they can shift is never going to change even 2000 years in the future. And the guy ( omg I keep calling him the guy cause I literally can not be bothered figuring out his name ) who lives in a far more developed society with richer civilization within the wall. It could be possible that Ymir or someone erased the eldians memories ONCE AGAIN after the rumbling ended. Because Mikasa levi weren't effected they probably were excused and got to live as they pleased. This dude is also the reason why I believe isayama does not consider the Ackerman's as side characters at all. In the end the story might have actually started with them, alluding to "the ending is just the beginning" as said by kingsama himself. ( Wtf am I saying lol )

So yeah in conclusion as I said yes story is weirdly really influenced by a large amount of triangles and loops. And yes ackerman probably would break the cycle of death after all living through hell fighting hell all for what? If not recreating into a heaven, giving it new life. I do believe in rivamika living the life they are destined for with each other but eldians fate might just be too tragic for me to see them as truly free people who gets to roam around outside the walls as they please.

I guess my point is that everything that goes around will come around, that will bring good karma for the Ackerman's and maybe a repeation of the past for the rest of the world. 😩😩 I think I fully somehow believe Eren is gone for good. Unless isayama draws him waking up from a long dream on his bed then 💀👀👀 I will throw myself away.

Thank you for reading 💞 once again I'm so sorry this post isn't as good as I'd like it to be I am sleep deprived right now and it isn't worded as well as of like it to be. But hope my delulu ness was enjoyable at least. ✌️💀

[arcade-conspiracy]

Hallo ^_^!!! I hope its fine that i ask for a bnha/danganronpa match up <3 <3

I'm a bi male, my mbti is ISTP-T(?). I'm a lazy n casual person, I like making jokes and people laugh(although my humor is really nonsensical haha) ^_^! Making people laugh makes me happy lol. I have bad anger issuse I can get angry/annoyed far too easily despite being annoying myself. I have difficulty with empathy with negative emotions and I'm not the best to go to for comfort T_T. I find it easy to get along with people once getting over my shyness. I'd consider myself a pretty creative person! I never admit ignorance, despite being...Incredibly ignorant ×_×. I'm a very touchy person I like being able to wrap my arm around someone, playfully poke them, etc... But I'm not really comfortable being touched myself unless I know that person veryyy well =_=". I try to be intimidating though that whole facade fails. I'm very indecisive and work best around people who are extremely patient with me.

I really like drawing! I really enjoy showing off my art to my friends and or making drawings for friends. I also like baking things, especially when it when someone is accompanying me while baking and helping me because thats just really fun >_<!! I'm a very music orientated person(very into modern rock nd indie pop!!!) ! Im a BIG! cat person *_*<3 nd i have this weird infatuation with fire XO idk if thats important but whatever!!! LOL. I really like the grunge aesthetic nd horror. I like collecting things.. Mainly stuffed animals haha. I like playing video games, often getting pretty competitive depending on the game.

Ok! I think thats enough! Sorry of its alot! Much love, have a good day/night! Ciao!

Anon, you seem really fucking dope. Just know that I platonically love you.

I match you with,,,

Hitoshi Shinsou!

So obviously, Shinsou’s pretty introverted, all things considered

But he finds you interesting and enjoyable, so he keeps you around, if you know what I mean

You’re the one person he doesn’t exactly hate being around, if you will

He is 10/10 type to bring home any stray cat he may find, so be prepared for that

At this point, he has four or five hidden in his dorm at any given time, so he’s quite thankful you’re a cat person

He likes making conversation while you two just love on the cats,, he’d say it’s free therapy

He’s super fascinated with the way people are able to use their creative skills so please show him your art

He will adore everything you create, even if he might not voice so

Especially if it’s something you’ve drawn for him specifically. He’s so appreciative of the fact that you put in that work for him.

He’s basically gonna worship that piece of art, cause you made it for him

He’s pretty touch starved, let’s be real, so he’s super down for whatever contact you’ll give him

He rarely gets tired of it or annoyed with it, as long as it’s you

Note, though, he’ll only allow that kind of thing if you’re someone he whole heartedly trusts

Meaning you’ve managed to gain his full and absolute trust

There’s definitely been nights where the two of you just stay up, listen to music, and play video games together

He’s not too picky on music, so he’d probably be into whatever you’re into! He’d love to share new artists with you, and hear the albums you’ve been listening to

He’s not the best at video games, though he thinks the playful competition of it all can be fun. Especially with how into it you can get, it makes it far more entertaining

He stays fairly level headed in most situations, so if you ever need calming down, or someone to talk to, he’s always there for you

He’s not judgy about that kind of thing, since he knows how ridiculous his own problems can seem

He might suggest taking out your feelings on borderline arson or something, but he’s there!

In conclusion: Let them have cats in the dorms!! It’s only fair!!

Rantaro Amami!

I try not to write for anyone outside of SDR2, because its the only game I’ve played and I’m not too familiar with most of the characters in the other games, BUT I literally thought of him immediately so-

He is incredibly patient and understanding with everyone, so it’s even more natural when it comes to you

Whether you’re feeling bad, or just need extra help, he’s never annoyed by it or anything

He makes a good support person, and always seems to have the right thing to say, and the right advice

Normally, he can be fairly touchy, himself, but he doesn’t mind holding off if it makes you more comfortable!

Whatever makes you feel safest is priority with him, so of course he doesn’t mind

He’s all for your casual contact, too. It’s just a nice reminder you’re still there, and nearby

Would he love to bake with you? Yes. Is he going to absolutely go all out when he finds out you’d want to do that in the first place? Yes.

He’d put on some music, secretly gather all the supplies, and make a whole day out of it for you two

You actually end up making something really good, too, because he’s just accidentally good at baking

Who knew he could be domestic, certainly not him

He likes watching you draw, if you’ll allow him

It might seem silly but he genuinely thinks it’s absolutely wonderful to get to see the process of you creating something

He feels that way about most things you do, honestly, he likes just watching you because he can

But the drawing is his favorite, because he gets to see the effects of your efforts in the end!

He also loves watching horror movies with you

If you’re easily scared by them, he will not hesitate to tease you about it. If you’re not, though, it’ll be his personal mission to scare you at least once

In conclusion: Similar aesthetics? Maybe they share clothes?? That’s kind of lovely???

What is your opinion on art theoreticians? Do you believe that trying to quantify art through definitions and critique is the proper way art should be categorised and digested, or do you believe that such things take away from the enjoyment of art? I guess what I'm trying to say is, do you believe that theoreticians and critics with "golden opinions" only see art through dry definitions, and cannot enjoy art for how it makes you feel? Apologies for my ramblings.

Hey! No don't apologize, I totally get what you're saying!! & Sorry this took me a couple of days to get to 😅

Let me see if I can explain my views on this properly. Because on one hand, I do think that there are some parts of the art world that are.... almost objective or can be made objective? There are aspectcts of some work that we DO have a biological respose to, whether or not we realize. And the world of art isn't ENTIRELY some kind of lawless wild west. BUT, that said, Art is INCREDIBLY Subjective. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and the world of art is so incredibly diverse at this point that I don't think anyone COULD boil the entire concept of artistic vision down to just "theory". There's just too much to be considered.

For a theoritician or critic to try and quantify WHY something makes you feel the way that you do when you look at it is an interesting thought, but It's hardly scientific. I ESPECIALLY dislike putting others' art down, or considering it 'trash' because it is NOT held up to some specific objective standard. A lot of artistic standards have slowly worked their way into the mainstream MAINLY because of prominent trends throughout history. I'm rusty on my art history so I'm not going to go into it too deeply, but the popularity of those trends in styles have ALWAYS been a huge force in the world of art. (kinda like modern pop culture & in-groups, life reflects art, right? 😎)

There will always be a place for art rebels out there. In fact for the world of art to evolve I think that we NEED people who are willing to go against the grain and bring new trends into the limelight. Break the fucking rules. Show us something that we've NEVER seen before. Then It could be argued that something fresh and new has a greater impact on our tastes than the best of the best of X or Y era. And how interesting is it to see how these trends are repeatedly broken by rebels? I love it.

My counterpoint here is IF you are choosing to set objective standards for yourself as the artist, you are opening yourself up to critique, because of the limitations you are givjng to your body of work. For instance If you're choosing to work in the style of 1800s realism, you have an era, specific trends, styles, and techniques that you can, in turn, work within in. Something like that, I think, can be critiqued based on those criteria only because you are choosing to 'work inside of the box' of (insert era). And even then, the critiques that piece recieves are still subjective to the viewer, whether or not that affects someone's perception of it is ultimately up to the beholder.

And when I say "Work inside the box" I don't mean this in a negative light. I throughly believe that serious learning can come by giving yourself restrictions, or specific guidelines for your work. For instance, the first time I had EVER Painted in Oils (My fav Medium) My teacher chose to teach us Realism and Observation Excluseively. And here I was, painting some jank little abstracts in Acryllic from time to time. It changed everything that I understood about painting, and it COMPLETELY changed my style and preferences. It gave me a deeper understanding of how this specific era and type of work is made and what they attempt to reflect. Does that Mean that I, or any other theoritician/critic Knows everything about a body of work, Objectively? No, of course not. But it allows us to critique within the same bounds that a body of work was created, in a sense?

I do want to bring up some snippets on Color Theory & Our ability to heavily empathize with artwork. Because that, I believe, holds some truth to how we see artwork and how it Actually affects us, somewhat Objectively. Without getting too long with this (it's already long as fuck I know) Humans have a biological response to color, this is a known fact. It's not so simple as X color makes you feel X, but... it's close. There's alot we still don't understand, but we know enough that we can theorize. For instance, humans react VERY strongly to the Color Red, and it evokes a variety of emotional responses. We have a huge reaction to simple contrast, because, fun fact, Our Eyes detect Value & Contrast MUCH more strongly than they detect color. Simple Black/White/Red Artwork is going to evoke a strong response in many people, whether or not we realize that fact. Humans very naturally Empathize with Facial Expressions and body languange! Hence whh we can pick up emotional responses from human or human-like faces or impressions in artwork. This can obviously be a huge factor, and I think that this contributes to the "feel" of a piece, and is recognized as some kind of Objective standard. Is it ACTUALLY an objective standard? Not necessarily. It's just another commonality that is shared between the masses, and can be communicated as such. If a sad clown looks sad , it's obvious. It's just another contributing factor.

...Also I'm not a scientist or anything. This is all just based on my personal understanding & research SO if I'm wrong on any of this or am spewing actual pseudoscience please let me know !!

Really, int the end, the only standard that your art needs to stand up to is your own. If you're choosing to make "Your own work" Or your own style? You're allowed to set your own boundaries & make your own box.

& Oops This has kinda gone off the rails so I'm ending this ask here 😅 I hope I've actually answered your question !! I probably have plenty more to say on the subject...? (or need to correct myself b/c I can be a lil bit scattered) So maybe I'll tack on some edits 🤔

...Soo Here's my term paper. I hope I got an A 🥺

The real brunt of depression and anxiety began to set in, and so was taught messages of self hatred coming from all around. It was around here that I also had some really hard realizations about my situation: I'm a neurodivergent afab child in a poor and abusive single foreign parent home, most adults let me down and their words are unreliable, my sibling is sick, everyone my age hates me, and there is literally nothing I can do about this and this is how my life is probably going to look for many years to come.

I am, somehow by a stroke of miracle, doing better than I was around that time (though ive gained some ptsd from events- but still). I love myself and think I'm lovely even though I'm still hard on myself sometimes, this is super incredibly huge compared to being 12. And my mental health while I still feel it's symptoms is being managed and medicated. I'm many strides ahead of my fellow afab sisters/siblings in terms of not letting mysogyny hurt me, and hope to be a good example for them. My sis grew out of alot of health issues and can even eat peanuts now! My parent while she still sucks she's too old to beat me now, and I'm the only one in the house who can drive and manage our bank accounts so she knows she needs me and should keep the peace. I'm no longer bullied, save for like 3 people in college who had a brick up their ass or something but they're nowhere near me now, and I have a circle of friends who understand me alongside a huge fb friend list full of queer colorful emotionally mature people. My cat is still alive and well!!! And has been for a while despite my worrying, albeit grumpy but I've come to learn she does love me she's just like this. I have $ which means I can buy all the lisa frank shit I want (well.. almost). I have my own room now, and puberty while it was rough the end result is pretty good! (outside of the wishing to have a dick sometimes thing.. that was an odd unexpected side affect LMAO).

Anyways the whole turning 12 thing really hella fucking sucked, and almost 12 years later I survived and even have thrived sometimes, and came out of all the series of unfortunate events afterward stronger and wiser than ever before, and with friends, talents, and assets to show for it. I experience a wide range between negative and positive emotions, and sometimes mixed or both or in-between- and I beleive it's healthier for everyone to be aware that that is a part of life- and that's okay! Without ups and downs life isn't vibrant

I may not be a clueless kid anymore, but I'm more free than I was. The world is huge and scary, but also beautiful and there are good things here, and I'm brave as fuck

[scrumptiousdonutangel]

I just... I fucking hate myself. I want to cut but I don't want to break my clean streak and my new years resolution, let everybody down and talk back into that horrible habit... I want to die but I don't. I'm stuck in this horrible fucking limbo between hating myself but not wanting to hate myself and wanting to live, y'know? I fucking hate it

I know exactly what you mean, having been to the same horrific limbo myself. It’s absolutely horrible, but you’ve got to push through it. And I know it seems like death would be so much easier then having to fight down urges everyday, but it isn’t. It’s so much worse, not just for you but for everyone you love. That being said, you shouldn’t feel guilty about the urges because just like any kind of addiction or self harm, it is incredibly hard to stop at times. Don’t give in to them, but you shouldn’t expect yourself to suddenly have no thoughts like that right away. Now I’m going to list some stuff that has helped me and friends with things like suicidal thoughts and self harm, try some out and see if any of them help. Recovery isn’t easy or fast but these might help a little

1. Medication. Now I know that it doesn’t work for everyone, but in my personal experience it has helped drastically. You can always try it out and if it doesn’t seem to be helping or makes things worse just get off it. I understand that some people can’t afford it or don’t want to bring it up to their parents, but if you can it is definitely worth checking out.

2. Go get some good all vitamin D. Go outside, you don’t have to be doing anything energetic, just lay in the sun for a while. If it’s cold or not sunny in your area, sometimes a tanning booth can help too.

3. Exercise. This is my least favorite one, but I admit that it helps. I’m not talking go to the gym and workout for 3 hours, but instead just try some simple exercises before your shower, a simple walk, or even just some stretches in the morning if you don’t have the time or energy. This not only helps with depression, but can make you feel alot better  if you struggle with some self confidence issues.

4. The good old ice cube. A girl I knew once told me that she struggled with self harm very severely and didn’t know how to fight the urges, so I told her to try out the ice cube trick. When you feel the urge to hurt yourself, just push an ice cube down on the area you want to hurt and it helps relieve the urge a little without actually damaging yourself. I haven’t tried this one, but she did and she said it worked very well.

5. Hot Showers. This is probably the weirdest one, but it really works for me. Whenever I feel the urge to hurt myself, I take a shower and make it hot (not dangerously hot though, the point of this is to not hurt your skin) and increase the temperature when if the urges don’t go away. I don’t know why but it works for me, so try it out and see if it helps at all. (not too hot though)

6. Get creative. Anywhere that you want to hurt, draw. I usually use a pencil just cause it doesn’t leave a mark for too long and feels better, but feel free to use any skin safe utensil. it doesn’t have to be anything incredible, just doodle. It’s amazing what little swirls and spirals can do for you.

7. therapy. Again, I know this one isn’t for everyone. Some people can’t afford it, it doesn’t work for them, or their parents just won’t let them. I get that. My own parent wouldn’t let me go to therapy until I had a very noticeable meltdown. If you can go to a therapist though, I highly advise you to go. Different therapists work in different ways so search around and find one that clicks with you, and make appointments as often as necessary (my own are scheduled for once every two weeks). The myth that you are simply paying a therapist to pretend to care for you is bull crap. They genuinely care for you as a fellow human being and will try their best to help you. They can offer you advice and things to help with your problems, and they know how to handle everything. Talking to friends about your problems may be helping, but I guarantee that a therapist can give you much better advice. If you have issues with your parents (such as your parent doesn’t want you on medication, your parent doesn’t think that your mental issues are real, or your parents think you’re overreacting) I find that a therapist can change their mind pretty easily, seeing as how they’re professionals and deal with that sort of thing a lot. I’m not sure if it’s just in my state, but here if you are over 14 you can attend therapy alone, meaning your parent doesn’t get to be there in the room if you don’t want them to be. Your therapist is legally obligated not to tell your parents something if you ask them not to tell them (unless it is harmful to you or to others). So if you can make it to one I very highly suggest it.

8. If you are feeling suicidal or self harmful, I know your first instinct is to talk to a friend, but a hotline works far better. They are always available and can handle the problem much much better. It may feel weird contacting them, but they are trained for this and want to help you.

that’s all I can think of for now, but I really hope these help, and if you need to talk to anyone or want to know more about any of this just message me, I’d really like to make sure you’re okay. Keep going anon, you are so strong!!!

[asagi-s-garden]

I was not expecting all that when I asked that question and I'm super glad I did. I...feel very much the same when it came to ichiruki. I really thought they would end on some cop out platonic thing, which would have been fine because they really were great friends, but dude. That arc, way back when rukia is about to be sentenced to death, that was my jam. He goes through so much and then he fucking stops that attack like nothing. I'm sorry. No. They're something.

I'm glad I didn't get on your nerves Anon, I know I have a tendency to ramble

I always thought it had the potential to go one of two ways only: Cop-out platonic, but with a wink-nudge to them staying together like seeing eachother at work or alluding to the fact that they were living together at the Kuchiki mansion or something (because I've never seen Ichigo as someone who could live on his own, and in SS especially I see him as pulling the "Why bother paying for my own place when I can live with you guys? YOU MOOCHED OFF OF ME FOR MONTHS RUKIA I CAN LIVE HERE IF I WANT TO!" nonsense to save face) OR they'd go the Inuyasha route and end up married with three kids and have ZERO in between (atleast I was right about one thing) since that seems to be how shounen manga works

I always thought the last pannel would be Ichigo and Rukia together, romantically or not, because they ARE Bleach

I agree, the SS arc is what started me on Bleach, it remains the high point of the series, there was so much excellence there!!

What kills me most though actually isn't that Ichigo and Rukia didn't end up together- it's that Ichigo ended up doing the one thing he spent the entire series basically saying he was NOT going to do: Living a normal human life

Excuse me, no? I mean that was the entire- and only- purpose of the Fullbringer arc, to show that Ichigo could be human, but couldn't have a LIFE as one, Ichigo spent the entire series not just trying to protect people, but trying to keep his powers and keep them growing, there's not a single MOMENT of the series that showed Ichigo as being someone who wanted to live or was capable of living life as a normal human without powers, and Ichigo is like Stiles in this way, he says the opposite of what he means 95% of the time and the 5% of the time he means what he says you know he means it

I could understand shipper goggles blinding me with IchiRuki *snort-laugh* but I CAN'T understand where there was ever a moment when Ichigo living life without his powers became a possibility, and hell, even most of the IchiHime fans agreed that that was weird, atleast from what little I've seen and heard of it, I've tried to distance myself from all of that but from what little I've seen, I've noticed that even they find it odd that he gave up the life he loved

And not seeing Rukia for a DECADE when he always busted his rump to see her? Her not seeing HIM after being the SINGLE driving force in getting his powers back? None of this makes sense

I hold to my beleif that Kubo wrote that ending as a big middle finger to Shounen Jump for not giving him sixty years to finish his arc because he knew it would shoot the final sales of Bleach badly, let's remember that Kubo's target audience is JAPANESE, and the Japanese fans are MASS-MAJORITY IchiRuki shippers, IchiHime is TINY in Japan and largely seen as more of a crack pairing (in fact, Rukia pairings in general seem to be more popular in Japan than Ichigo pairings, but I digress) Kubo making IchiHime canon- from Japan's perspective- would probably be alot like Jeff Davis making Stiam canon here, wich isn't a slam again Stiam fans at all, by the way, nothin' wrong with Stiam, but it's just a TINY pairing that's largely veiwed as having no potential in canon in comparison to a show full of BEHEAMOTH pairings like Sterek, Stydia, and even Stalia in comparison (the Ichigo pairings, if I remember correctly, ranked something along the lines of: IchiRuki, GrimmIchi, IchiIshi, and then you got into the smaller ones, and the Rukia pairings actually went IchiRuki, RenRuki, and I want to say that RukiHime is third but I could be mistaken, point is, wile RenRuki appealed to a decent audience, IchiHime didn't)

Kubo quite honestly could have ended with almost any Ichigo pairing and in *JAPAN* it still would have been more popular than IchiHime (ironic huh?) in fact, IchiHime shippers are largely western in general, our perception of romance and beauty are much different than it is in Japan

Kubo is also someone who's made no secret about struggling to be on good terms with the SJ people not liking the fact that they were rushing his final arc, it doesn't take much digging to find quotes from him that indicate that his relationship with Shounen Jump was tense at best and the second to last chapter has that memorable quote from Kyoraku about people rushing him

It's petty- incredibly petty- but it's actually pretty possible, there's a saying amongst writers that there's no better fuel than revenge and bitterness, and I know from experience that spite-writing is a very, very real thing, and I've been tempted to write things that are not necessarily *good* just to get back at someone or because someone has pissed me off, I usually end up restraining myself out of the love of my charectors but that isn't always the case

Plus, just look at how Shounen Jump handled all of this, everything they've done since that ending has been INTENSELY IchiRuki, because IchiRuki sells, there's never been ONE peice of IchiHime merch this entire time and the only RenRuki merch out there is the light novel Kubo is writing- wich is again, Kubo, not  SJ- and also again, RenRuki- unlike IchiHime- actually has a fanbase in Japan

Anyway, I rambled again, but just... IchiRuki is the true love that never came to fruition, and Bleach historically carries the worst ending of all time (yes Penny Dreadful, you're off the hook this time)

I feel like we've missed an opportunity with Claudia just being a Tulpa. BUT I'm holding out hope that that confirms that the Stilinski family is Something. It can't be any ordinary human that can do that, right?

To be fair though, we don’t actually know for sure that she’s a Tulpa, that was still just Lydia’s guess and there are a billion questions every season that go unanswered- how Danny knew about werewolves, for example, what he meant by “Dude it’s Beacon Hills”, is a prime example, so just because Lydia guessed it, it doesn’t mean she was, after all, she does behave much differently than Lenore’s son, and since Lenore never gave up her illusion, we have no idea if he would have vanished in the same way Claudia did once she had

But with that being said, I certainly think it does point to them being Something yes, the thing about Tulpas is this: They need a TON of power

It goes back to the original scrapped story for the first Tinkerbell movie, wich involved the fairies dieing (yeah honestly there’s a clip on YouTube and everything) and Tinkerbell making everyone believe again to bring them all back, one or two people believing is enough to keep Tink breathing but that’s pretty much it, it isn’t until you get ~all of the children to believe~ that full power is restored and the other faeries come back

Tulpas are alot like that, if we take the example of Bigfoot again, if you have one person who believes really, really strongly in Bigfoot, then that person MIGHT be able to manifest a Tulpa strongly enough to see it themselves- or rather, to BELIEVE they see it- but we’re talking like “A glimpse out of the corner of your eye” kind of thing, for a Tulpa to form in a way that everyone and their dog can see it… that takes a *hefty* amount of psychic power*, remember that even Bigfoot isn’t seen by *everyone* and think of the MILLIONS- probably BILLIONS- of people who believe in him

Banshees are like the reigning lords of psychic energy/power, and yet Caleb wasn’t NEARLY as well formed as Claudia, remember also that the sheriff is the only person who has any reason to believe in Claudia, unlike Bigfoot who has alot of believers by proxy (IE: I, myself, have never personally met Bigfoot, but I do believe in him) Claudia really only had two people who would have cared enough to really pay her much mind: Sheriff and Stiles, and Stiles is gone so that just leaves the sheriff, the only other people who would have needed to see her are the pack (after all, Claudia was solely there for her husband’s benefit, it isn’t like she needed to go get groceries or anything, she only needed to be present/materialized when someone *specifically needed her* such as the sheriff or Lydia who went looking for the sheriff) And who in the pack as any connection to Claudia ///at all//// besides the Stilinski men? No one, no one except Melissa who’s connection is so small that she’s only ever brought up Claudia as a passing mention in direct relation to Stiles, and she’s never exactly emotional about it either, so any idea that maybe Melissa was BFFs with her and would have helped conjure her are just not true

The other members of the pack didn’t even know Claudia, with the exception of Scott who probably knew her in a “Hi Mrs. Stilinski can Stiles come out in play?” sort of context, not nearly enough to believe in her without seeing her sudden reappearance in front of him

That means that Sheriff Stilinski conjured her alone

The beleif from the others was very circumstantial- and Lydia’s had already started to waver- basically the sheriff was responsible for baking this cake and the others only added some sprinkles, so when the cake is taken away… well, the cake is taken away and no amount of sprinkles is going to remake a cake

So to put in perspective: Lenore, a banshee powerfull enough to take on Lydia to atleast *some* degree, and who was *entirely alone* in the town, summoned a Tulpa of her dead son for thirty years and he was HEAVILY glitchy

The sheriff, ~a normal human~ who, yes, had lost his son, but who was still SURROUNDED by freinds, co-workers, and… you know… people… summoned a Tulpa (wich, for arguement’s sake, we’re saying Claudia is) without /ANY/ glitches at all- that means she continued to speak, walk, and all around ACT like a normal human being who never faded/phased out of existance and never acted stiff, robotic, or strange in any way at all unless her existance was DIRECTLY threatened- even then she didn’t really glitch, she just fought harder than normal to argue against Stiles’ existance, she didn’t started to fade or really glitch out until the sheriff had started letting go of his beleif

That is IMMENSELY powerfull, so how does your average human outdo a banshee?

I think there’s more to the Stilinski family than even the fandom has given credit for, we all have assumed- understandably so- that any power has come from Claudia, and again this is really understandable, considering Stiles has always shown magic potential and the sheriff has always been not only quite human- but deeply desperate to not allow anything non-human to cross his path, wich is actually a very normal human reaction, Mason, who rolled with this and kept rolling, is the exception to the rule of normal human behavior, whereas the sheriff is that rule personified, but man wouldn’t it be incredible if the Stilinski family is Something from the paternal side?

I’d like to say that the sheriff is the only one capable of conjuring a new rift because of his connection with Stiles- either by the power of family love or by the power of two magic people coming into sync- but it doesn’t look that way from the trailer, unfortunately

*Remember that “psychic energy” is just a catch-all term, we all have psychic energy to some degree even if we ourselves are no more psychic than a peice of Wonderbread, psychic energy, spiritual energy, etc etc, it’s all basically the same thing
