#(they make me so nostalgic 😭 and make me feel old bc they look like babies even tho i didnt think they did then but im their age so 💀)

[skitskatdacat63]

The thing about mentioning that you are disappointed because wanderer got changed to blue and anemo is so incredibly real and understandable. I literally had the same experience, so down bad and all and I was eager to get wanderer but now that I have him it just doesn't hit that hard idk. They should have kept the black and red it suited him so much. I can understand that a part of his lore and character is to heal and move on and change but why do all anemo characters have to be so blueish and stuff? Why couldn't the purple, red, black etc. stay? He looked so good with it and he still does but why can't Hoyoverse step out of that zone for once and color things different. Why can't there be a character who is anemo but can still dress more dark YK? 😭 Or even make the elements different. Like red electro or blue flames. Where is the creativity c'mon now :(

Exactlyyyyyyyyy!!! Like why hype up a character for so long, showing little glimpses, getting people excited, only to change his design :( It makes me annoyed to think about because there was soooo much speculation back in the day abt what element he'd be and so much "omg his design is so sick!! I want him so bad" only for him to be...blue. But yeah I totally agree, I usually don't mind their color coding but it sucks in this case specifically bcs his original colors were so beautiful and unique. Though speaking with color, ah at least we have Miko in red/white/pink, I'm very pleased with that! I think if they're gonna pick an element for him that's different than everyone guessed, idk why they have to make it so obvious. Like is it not more interesting for him to be so unassuming? Also I love his old name and titles sob sob, I can't get into "Wanderer" or "Hat Guy" at all.

I guess for me specifically, Unreconciled Stars holds such a special place in my heart as the first ever event. Tthe amount of mystery and hype around Scaramouche was so fascinating to me, cause he was the first of his kind, a character being teased who we wouldn't see again nor get for literal years. I remember rewatching this scene over and over again, trying to get the most I could out of a limited character y'know, it felt very special. He felt so intimindating and cool, the first Harbinger we got to see outside of the only two we knew. And back then, I was like WHEN HE COMES OUT, I'M WHALING!!!! But I wasn't really playing it around the time he appeared in Sumeru, so I was so aggrieved seeing he was finally released, but completely different! I missed the train y'know lmao, I just don't care for his current state at all, bcs as I said, I can't help but be stuck in my 2020 perception of him. It's just very nostalgic for me. Which is why I still call him Scaramouche lol. I know a lot of people like his chara development a lot and think it's interesting, but yeah, I wasn't around for it when it was the big thing so I can't get into it, because for me, it feels like getting swindled. I really love the Fatui and their designs, like one of my fav aspects of the game, so for him to not be that anymore makes me disinterested.

Also here is the only screenshot I have of him from back then LOL, if it was now, I would've taken a million

I wanna know why you're still reading JJK not because it's bad but bc I love seeing you rant about things you love

NATEjajajaaj tbh, I complain about everything I like and everything that I’ve said thus far about JJK, I still feel strongly about because I KNOW that it used to be written way better before but despite all of that, I can honestly say that I still enjoy it a ton. It’s so fun!? I can’t look away?!? I haven’t felt this way about a manga, especially a shounen of all things, in… I really don’t know (I kind of don’t like to count csm since it’s still a seinen to me…). Jjk is joining the ranks of my love for Naruto 🙈……. As absurd as that might sound, it makes me feel nostalgic despite not being that old!!!

It definitely deserves all of its praise as well and I’m not just saying this just because I’m a fan. If it didn’t, I’d definitely say otherwise. I’m glad that everyone is fucking with it! It just made the  Guinness world book of records the other day, I kind of want to throw up 😭. Knowing how Gege’s been writing the story lately, he probably doesn’t give a shit. He just wants to finish JJK as soon as possible so that he could get back to doing fuck all. Well… good for him. But, I’m genuinely glad that I got into it! The fans are annoying but that’s to be expected from a mainstream shounen unfortunately. It’s so nice ignoring them though. That’s the only way you’ll be able to enjoy something as big of a series like this tbh.

All of the characters that I’ve liked or loved never got to the point where they were written horribly like, I can say that Gege has remained pretty consistent in the characterization department, which is a plus, since whenever I get into stuff, I tend to pay a lot of attention to things like this especially. Yuuji is still Yuuji, Sukuna is still that petty old bitch, Gojo remained as silly and courageous till the very end (even tho I still wished that Gege could’ve focused more on Gojo’s trauma… it would’ve been nice to see him overcome the burden of being the apex of the jujutsu society… he was so much more than an idol and he still died believing that that was all that he was. Someone who was so far removed from humanity that he continued to tell himself that this would be all that he ever was and that even if his friends and peers truly did love and respected him, they’ll never learn to “understand,” him because he’s so much more powerful than they were. Their lives would never be the same. And he could never make any of them truly happy in the end. I really HATED THAT Gege let that man go to that DAMN airport still holding onto to his loneliness like this 😭😭😭… and then when you think back to that one scene in the story where various other characters were asked about their feelings towards Gojo, and all most of them had to say was that “he’s the strongest,” I just… :(… Obviously, he’s well respected despite his personality but 😭… Gege, you will burn for this-

I do enjoy how ridiculous JJK can get as well. People can talk badly about it all they want but you can’t say that it’s predictable lmfao. This looney toons ass plot 😭!!! I’m kind of here for the shenanigans. It’s been pretty repetitive as of lately though. Mainly the whole Sukuna vs everyone thing that’s been going on starting from Kashimo (his dumbass) right after Gojo’s death… but it’s okay. Outside of my favs being slaughtered left and right 👎🏾☠️. You can tell that Gege is just rushing through the story now though :/. I kind of can’t wait for it to end but I’m still enjoying the ride until the wheels fall off! I want Yuuji and the rest of the gang to be able to enjoy the rest of their lives, man… Gege wrote JJK with a chip on his shoulder 😭.

tag games :)

Woooo thanks for tagging me @the-cloud-whisperer!! :) I’ve never done one of these before!

* Last song I listened to: Telephone Number by Junko Ohashi (classic city pop bop)

* Favorite color: Forest green - I painted my home office this color and it’s very calming (plus gives off hobbit vibes)

* Currently watching: Dungeon Meshi, didn’t expect to like it as much as I do but I look forward to every new ep and even binged the manga the other day :)

* Spicy/savory/sweet: Savory all the way, can’t handle too much spicy or sweet at a time T-T

* Relationship status: Married

* Current obsession: Strongest and longest running special interest is A:tLA since 2007, specifically Zukaang now ever since late 2021 when I had an epiphany about the ship and started writing The Avatar and the Fire Prince :)

-------------

🎶✨when u get this, list 5 songs u like to listen to, publish. then, send this ask to 10 of your favourite followers (positivity is cool)🎶✨

* Take A Chance With Me - NIKI (literally fits Zukaang so well so I listen to it a lot)

* Lovegod - Sarah Kinsley (the piano in this makes me feel so nostalgic and gives me extreme Debussy vibes)

* Naked in Manhattan - Chappell Roan (sapphic bop)

* That’s Me - Gnoss (celtic music is just 🤌🏻✨ i love it so much)

* Bewitched - Laufey (I feel like im in an old disney movie when I listen to this)

-----------------

nickname: KJ

zodiac sign : gemini, but none of the gemini traits fit with my personality so I don’t much believe in astrology lol. if I’d have been born just a day or two later I’d be a cancer and much more inclined to believe in it bc it fits me way better

height : 5'4"

last thing I googled: tripleS members (a kpop group my sister recently introduced me to lol)

amount of sleep: usually 6-7 hours, I recently got diagnosed with mild sleep apnea so I wake up literally every hour or two and i have to use a cpap 😔

dream job: hmm well I guess I’m working it right now (I’m a therapist)? when I was a kid I wanted to be on broadway (I was big into musical theater/choir)… now I honestly kinda don’t really “enjoy” working in general even though there are parts of my job that I enjoy. I honestly get the most satisfaction out of doing things I like for my own enjoyment (like writing and drawing) rather than for monetary gain.

movie/book that describes me the most: uhhhhhh I guess I’d say LotR, I very much relate to Frodo lol (which is one of the reasons he’s my pfp on my main blog). I also love its portrayal of wholesome masculinity and kindness/goodness conquering all.

favorite song: hard to choose… there’s literally so many I like lol. I really love 1of1 (both the album and the song) by SHINee (my fave kpop group)

favorite instrument: I would say the mandolin or the fiddle

favorite aesthetics: I really enjoy the vibe of whimsigoth, though my personal style does not incorporate it. I attempted it a couple years ago but felt it was too femme - nowadays I wear “fashionable” men’s clothes (layers, button-ups, men’s jeans)

favorite author: Charlotte Brontë simply because I love Jane Eyre so much. She made me feel so many emotions with that novel 😭 I related to Jane a bit too much

random fun fact: hmmmm well I was the lead in two different musicals when I was in high school which was pretty neat! I mentioned somewhere above that I wanted to be on broadway growing up so that’s the closest i’ve gotten to that lmao

Gonna tag some of y’all if you wanna play (no pressure tho) :)

Okay so I've been lurking a lot instead of reblogging as I try to do, and this is because when I'm in the library doing work and get distracted by a good fic, it feels less like being off task if I'm just reading and not interacting, like reading is taking a study break, good for the brain, but interacting is being On Your Phone, and is off task.

Now the semester is done however, and I am free to do as I wish guilt free. One of the major things that I need to catch up on is a new fandom rabbit-hole that I fell into, which began with me accidentally stumbling on a fic while late-night scrolling, reading it, and then proceeding to completely devour almost the entire catalogue of works of several writers. I'll get around to re-reading and commenting on what I've spent the past like two weeks being absolutely lost in, but first I wanted to give a quick shout-out to the accounts because I know that sailor-aviator is having a milestone positivity event, and also they all just deserve it.

I think it started with @roosterforme and Bradley Bradshaw, and then devolved into reading almost everything that @jupitercomet, @sailor-aviator, and @goldenseresinretriever have ever published. This next part is long-winded gushing and also I think maybe turned into a marriage proposal? I'm not sure, hopefully its not creepy/weird

Seriously amazing work, like I can't truly express the amount of resistance I had to tgm before finding these accounts, but I had avoided watching the movie for the longest time bc my super shitty ex was a pilot (Air Force, and in training, but still we did tour the ship in SD when we were together) and also because he seriously looks like if you bought a hybrid of Lewis Pullman and Glen Powell from Dollar Tree and then made him scrawny, incredibly boring, and also unable to understand the word no or that it's not a crime to do a little shimmy when a good song comes on the grocery store radio

Now I feel cured of that in a way, like I don't know him, who was that? All I know are the incredible and delicious men that these guys are writing about.

You guys are out here soothing traumas unknowingly all while writing kicking-my-legs-blushing-and-giggling quality romances, like, can't thank you enough for the work and effort and time that has clearly gone into all that you guys are doing (for free!) and I hope that you all are proud of what you've been creating.

Like yeah, fanfic is just silly little stories, but these are your silly little stories that wouldn't exist without your hardwork and brains, and also they're incredible silly little stories. 🫶

Specifically I've been obsessed with sailor's Tarzan Bradley (he's so in love and also horny I love it, 🫠 ugh can't get enough), and her Bob series is so cute and seasonal I love him sm! 🥰🥰

And I didn't want to get sucked in, but sailor's merman Jake series converted me to becoming a part-time Jake girlie, of course with the help of golden's hockey au with Bugs and Lola, they're so cute and I'm living for Honey and Bradley you don't even know. I used to go to hockey games with my grandpa all the time (go Fireants lmao) so its nostalgic, but also bc of that old-guy association I don't think I ever really considered the horny potential of hockey, so thanks so much for opening my eyes to new growth opportunities for male objectification 😭

Anyways I hope this isn't like, too weird or makes you uncomfortable, I just wanted to take the chance to get out some of this built-up appreciation and share some positive thoughts ig, thanks for all your work and creativity, and also for bringing me a new fandom to hyperfixate on, its like a christmas gift, lol

[sugurugetos]

i hope fifth gen doesn't start soon because honestly it's gonna feel so fake. fourth gen feels disgenuine too but there are some artists that brought a lot of heart (skz, ateez, p1harmony, even txt despite them being hybe boys) but many of these new groups feel so artificial that enjoying them feels like i'm looking at dolls and not human people

i think that's why i like p1harmony so much- they reminded me of when idols felt like humans. p1h feel like a bunch of boys that got thrown into idol life in the best way. soul's weird keeho's funny intak's loud and they all have so much personality! but nowadays all these nugus feel like their inner selves and individuality has been trained away and it's sad

like call me nostalgic and stuck in 3rd gen bc of my fave groups but like its genuinely freaks me out when some people say 4th gen has had its time to shine, like itzy txt skz enhypen ive lesserafim etc and all the 4th gen groups have been around for four years MAX and is that all a groups prime time is worth...four years and then the carousel moves onto the next shiny perfectly prepped glossy page group of minors...like if they were debuting adults i would not be as pressed but babymonster having a 13 year old...im SICK like who is idolising who 😭

and yes!! its such a bad combo of toxic overanalysing fans and companies who need their idols to perfect that make 4th gen pale in comparison when it came to like just natural off camera behaviour of like regular humans

[tyonfs]

lol is this a lil late n embarrassing buttt the road trip i was on was to houston and i visited an old friend that i reconnected with and honestly it was really refreshing. it made me and my mom really consider not moving away so 🤗im not moving! im staying in texas for the time being until i graduate then its off to grad school so two more years 🫡

that was the important news now to the bad news. my best friend recently got a boyfriend which is great good for her, i’m happy for her. but everytime she gets a bf she like.. flaunts him in front of me because she’s aware i’ve had my fair share of hookups and situationships and im ngl.. at some point i was a player! like she knows this and she’s always like bragging and it just makes me so uncomfortable. on top of that recently i’ve reconnected with a childhood friend that i didn’t know went to my school and you know it’s really great, her group of friends are amazing and they’re so sweet. because of that my best friend gets jealous of me hanging out with these girls like 😭😭 ?? it’s not high school girl..? it’s fucking college and if you want to act a certain way around me and hang out with people who talk shit about me then so be it!

recently i’ve been really bored so i did what any girl did and hopped back on hinge. tell me why some guy from HIGHSCHOOL hit me up and tried getting with me just to find out he has a gf like girl ?? 😭 get ur priorities straight speaking of men my friends are trying to set me up with this guy and make him my date to their sororities formal 😭😭. you know he is so fine and he’s my type 🙈 maybeeee

i feel like mentally im doing a lot better than i was in january, physically too like im just breezing living my life. again not that into kpop anymore lol i just haven’t listened to the music in like over 4 months i find that scary. i did read some fics last night tho, do not regret it one bit 🤗

how are you alice, any updates on that guy you said you were sorta taking to, that sounded exciting! how was your valentine’s day lovely! - 🎀

OMG YAY THATS SO NICE THAT YOU'RE NOT MOVING (i think this is a good thing right??) but shoutout to that friend you reconnected with for changing your mom's mind :') and here's to not having to pack Everything and take it to another house 🥳

oh that friend of yours..... :/ that's so icky of her ngl like yes let's be happy about the new relationship but no need to bring other ppl down bc of it !! and honestly .... i've met plenty of guys who have had plenty of hookups and situationships themselves but people only make a big deal out of it when a girl is that way :( don't think it's weird at all for a woman to know that she doesn't want to commit just yet like that's just you putting yourself first !! omg PLS her being mad about you hanging out with other friends gave me chilling high school flashbacks 😐 she does NOT get to be mad if she hangs out with people who talk shit about you like what?? (looking forward to karma coming her way cause!!)

WHYS HE ON HINGE WHEN HE HAS A GIRLFRIEND I HATEEE MEN OMG 😭 also i hope we get an update on this sorority formal guy 🤭 im glad you've been doing better now tho !! honestly i haven't been reading kpop fics (more in the hogwarts brainrot rn 😵‍💫) but it's so nostalgic sometimes even if you're not stanning groups atm

omg i self sabotaged 🏃‍♂️ focusing on myself!!! (i am terrified of commitment) but also this guy i Used to have a thing with hit me up a while ago (after literally leaving a store that we were both in after we locked eyes) and said he wants me back 💀 i was like LOL no and got back to my silly little pokemon game <3 also valentine's day was with the girls this year 🥰 it was really nice!! i also bought this cute heart-shaped top that i will be wearing exclusively for valentines >:)) how about you??

[eggydev]

looking at a ton of oldschool web layouts from early 2000s-2010s and it's so nostalgic...

it also reminds me of a lot of bad stuff tho, lmao high school was the worst 😭😭

there's a lot of stuff I want to add to my website, still. I keep struggling with whether I really want to, or if I'm doing it for anyone besides myself. ((More/vent under the cut i guess idk))

it's like that with a lot of stuff, rly. "Am I doing 'xyz' thing bc I really want to, or bc I want other ppl to look and see what I've done?"

but...there ARE things I'd like to make just for ME, you know? It's hard allowing myself to do things just for me, even if it's something like webdesign. Not that I'm GOOD at it or anything- I'm just thinking about how everything I do or post, it's often followed up by: "who the fuck cares? why even post about 'xyz'?"

and then I have to tell myself: "If I don't do 'xyz' for ME, then it'll just sit in my head and fester and make me feel...bad. I like expressing myself.

Trauma plays a major part in that- I know. I'm this old and I'm still learning to tell myself: "It's ok to do things just for you, not for "notes" or "follows" or "likes" or what the fuck ever."

... and I'm still coming to terms with the fact that I shouldn't be ashamed to do so. Like for instance: I want to make more pages on my website that showcase things I'm into, like specific music or specific hyperfixations of mine!! I can just DO that, you know???? and yet, some part of my mind is like "cringe...who the fuck cares about this shit. You shouldn't do it after all." and I shut up and don't do anything.

But I'm trying.

I'm trying to figure it all out, even after all this time, and after all the humiliation and shame that I was made to feel for being "myself", even when expressing the simplest things.

I want to get better. )':

it's a process, even now and it's so annoying to have this buzzing going around in my skull.

I'm trying;;;;

[sanchoyo]

aaaa

today on my lunch break I was trying to clean up my old bookmarks on my browser and started getting all nostalgic looking at how much RV stuff I had bookmarked a few years ago. Like …I don’t know if I’d realistically want to live in one at this point (or rather if I COULD even prices and cost of living allowing, given my …anxieties…to put it mildly) but having fantasies abt it got me thru a whole lot of shit in 2019-2020… its still a cute concept even given my . um. apprehensions after thinking abt it more lmao

then for funsies I looked up apartment costs and got real depressed lol. Like I know my job isn’t livable wages (part time and all) but living w parents can be hell sometimes. And the kicker is, the area I’m in is one of the cheaper ones in the country!!! Like it’s NOT a big city!! My mom complained our landlady raised the rent a few years ago and now the rent is ~almost 500$~ for a three bedroom house and I’m like. You are so out of touch (respectfully) if you saw the prices of studio apartments that are like 250 sq ft being 800-1000$ u would faint. (Granted our house sucks and has a ton of problems that are kinda Bad but…LIKE…) when our landlady kicks it I just know her son is gonna match our rent to the standard too and idk how my parentsll deal w that 😭

idk. Just made myself kinda depressed bc I do want to move out. I do wanna be independent. But with this job (that’s already kinda…not steady or dependable on hours or even just firing ppl at random lol) I def could not afford it if I consider vehicle payments and food and stuff. I just. Agh… watching cute living alone vlogs on my lunch break didn’t help either 😥 the longing is real today 💔 I’ll never be a grindset work all the time person and ik I prob can’t do too much without burning out severely, but I really do want to try to up my income thru-out the next year… (and like, ik im not in a BAD position rn, not everyone even CAN live with their parents up to this age and most ppl have to pay their own bills, etc, where im only paying part of that, so maybe I should try being grateful yk. I Try To Be)

& I know roommates are a Thing but that also makes me nervous 4 a lot of reasons too. I just. Want to live alone to see if I can!! I want to decorate my own space and listen to music and not be told when to do things or worry someone will let my cat out!! I want to be able to go places without having to ask permission to use someone’s car or explain where and have time limits!! I’m almost!! 27!! Next year!!! I shouldn’t have to do all that im Tired of it!! And Sad a lil bit. Idk. At least my job is offering overtime this week again so that’s kinda nice…(also the reason I havent been on a lot lol, trying to make Money and feeling a ll drained) I think I’ll get myself a lil treat at the end of the week to make myself feel better and as a reward for being Good and actually Working. Like. A donut or smth… 🧍🏻

[carrionsong]

8, 13 and 19!!!

thank you dk :]!!

8. Do they have any favorite activities to do together?

they love gardening! xime has a bit of a green thumb themself and finds it relaxing n rewarding, and choro likes learning about how to care for their plants, even if he gets a bit frustrated at times with them not turning out as well as theirs :] (also xime probably. smuggled in a few seeds of certain plants from the us bc they hate the idea of spending so much on imports for when they want home cooking lmao, they might as well fly to the phillipines and buy food and bring it back😭)

they also tend to get really nostalgic and look through old photos and photo albums together... xime has soo many old photos from home, they show each other embarrassing baby pictures and get so emotional and cry together bc they think the other is so cuuute jxhxksns😢💖

xime loves to watch older anime with him too hehe, he has So many opinions, and they're happy to listen to him talk about them and they share their fave characters and eps, and even playfully argue about which characters are hotter (fuck. i imagined them watching haibane renmei together and now i have to kill msyelf sorry. NXHCKHDJXGJS AUGHHHHHHH FUCK THATS TOO MUCH ALL AT ONCE XIME WILL DIE)

13. What’s their opinions on PDA?

xime loves pda but knows choro is more nervous n reserved about it at first bc he has less experience. xime initiates it more than choro bc she's more confident about it, but makes sure choro doesn't feel overwhelmed or pressured into it, most of the time it's okay! every now and then, he'll reach for xime's hand first, nervous fingers intertwining w hers, and they slip right in together... he's so overcome with love and grips their hand a little too hard, his hand is clammy and sweaty but xime doesn't mind at all bc They're so happy he feels confident enough to do it ;;;💖 maybe even swing their arms up and down... allow himself to be a little mushy and showy about it 😊

19. How do they silently/subtly express their love for each other?

they both tend to get stuck in bouts of self doubt and inadequacy, so they can notice pretty quickly when one or the other is feeling down and doesn't want to bother them... when this happens, they tend to stay in bed well past morning, n when they haven't left past noon... well! time to get right back into bed with them! plans cancelled, dinner will be takeout, they take care of the other's chore for the day. nothing to do all day but stay in pjs and cuddle. if they feel like talking, great! if not, they'll tell the other things they appreciate about them, how much better their life is bc they're here..... or just stay quiet. their presence means so much more than words can convey at times. (me realizing the subtle/silent part kind of got away from me here but whateverrrr the last part makes up for it :] )

[maiverie]

NAH BC I STRUGGLED W THE RỒI XONG GÒY SOQ like i lived in the south when i was little so after i moved to my hometown (south central) my accent kinda changed 😭😭 i didn't notice it until i was teased cuz of it. also i feel like some new viet gen z slangs came from their pronunciation in some regions (like rồi xong and gòy soq)? could be just from my pov tho...

el and mike are soo 😭 there is something so lovely about love that blossoms from childhood whether or not it lasts (whatever that means) because mike and el’s foundations (imo) are built on kindness and just the earnest desire to make and keep a friend (!!!!) and thinking abt the fact that the duffers said s5 will involve a time jump, if I were to imagine what mike and el would look like as adults together like if their dynamic will hold up without the warm film of childhood … I honestly think it does/will. there’s something so wonderful about love that has settled or has been allowed to by time — and when a partnership begins from being children together? tbh it rarely works out but when it does it DOES.. idk how the season is gonna end, where everyone will end up.. but I hope sincerely that it does so so that the next one can begin with el and mike, slightly older and more settled and together underlined in bold. I think that dynamic will be so interesting to see actually play out! we got to see what a more adult conversation with them kind of looks like this season but and I loved it bc it felt authentic but that happened on shaky ground, and at 14 with their relationship a little wobbly. on a normal wednesday afternoon what do 17-18 year old mike and el talk about? what does that look like? I legit just can’t wait to see them talking lol anyways! I hope they aren’t kept apart at the end of the season again! the novelty is wearing off

Anon, it's like you reached into my head and pulled out all my words and thoughts. I love that we get to see Mike and El's relationship progress and develop over time, love that we get to grow with them. Their conversation/argument this season was so good because it was so real and so authentic, just a sign of them learning how to grow together and give each other what they need. They're not there yet - especially because they got interrupted by the police - but they'll get there. Their story arc isn't finished and we'll just have to wait until vol 2 to see it resolve.

But your point about what they'll look like in s5 (especially if there's a time jump) really made me step back and look at the overall progression we've gotten from them since the beginning.

S1: realizing they like each other/have feelings for each other

S2: deciding to stay dedicated to each other despite being separated, reuniting and then deciding to be together in a relationship

S3: figuring out what it means to be in a relationship and how to balance that with other aspects of their lives

S4: figuring out how to grow and communicate in a relationship given realistic challenges (long distance, growing up, etc).

So I feel like, by S5, their main "challenge" will be maintaining their growth, not backsliding, continuing to remember to communicate and balance their lives with each other and with their friends/family (pretty much literally what almost every couple wrestles with in real life).

So I don't see them being separated again (and not just because I hope they don't do this because it is getting very very tiresome). I can also see the Duffers wanting to have S5, dynamics wise, feel the most like S1, give the audience that nostalgic feeling as part of its swan song. So keeping Mike and El in the same storyline, have them share the majority of their scenes together, etc etc etc.

I also just want to see them be a mature couple, by which I mean they're sure of what they feel for each other, the "honeymoon" phase has worn off, and they're able to balance being together with other aspects of their lives even if they prefer at times to be alone with each other. I want to see them having soft conversations and just getting to enjoy being together given everything they've learned and experienced to get to this point.

So, to sum up: JUST GIVE ME SETTLED AND SECURE MILEVEN PLS. I don't even need it to be a main focus of the story! I just want it to be a real thing while the plot is reeling chaotically around them.

i can’t remember if i read best friend’s brother when you first put it out but i PROBABLY did bc if it was in 2016 that is around the time i was very deeply into seventeen. i feel like i definitely did bc so many of the scenes felt so familiar but so distant in my memory. i just wanna say that i loved reading it. it made me feel so nostalgic, likely because if i did read it back then, i would have been 17 and now i’m 23 and looking back on my life in that time just made me feel so emotional. idk. it was just so good. the characters are so well written. i cried, and i don’t usually cry while reading au’s or fanfics or anything of the sort. honestly i just wanna thank you fhskfbdk.

I KNOW RIGHTTTTT 😭

the og version legit feels like it was ages ago! i can’t even remember writing it, but i think i had my old crusty laptop (actually i shouldn’t call it crusty—it worked rly well lol) and i just know i thought it was like… the Peak of my writing 🤢 NOW I DESPISE THE OG VERSION and i avoid it at costs bc i find my older works like… borderline unbearable.

I’M SO GLAD YOU LIKED THE 2.0 VER THO! it meant a lot to me to recreate it and share it with everyone ☺️ esp if they’ve stuck around or know the og fic! so i think that makes the newer one more bittersweet & sentimental! anywho THX SO MUCH FOR UR COMMENTS I RLY APPRECIATE IT 💗

[pinkslashersimp]

for the colours ask,

blue cherry magenta purple

, please! thank you in advance!

hello!!!

Blue: Seaside or Forest?

FOREST 10000% forest. I’m a big fan of LOTR and i would absolutely love to live in a big forest in a tiny little house just like Radagast does in the hobbit and place my altar somewhere and just live peacefully amongst the trees🙏🙏

Cherry: Whats your favourite type of art?

ok i literally do not know if this genre has a name (it probably does but i can’t look it up lol) but i love the type of art of women amongst rivers or seas or lakes looking longingly into the water or touching it with their hands

I just think it’s so neat and it makes me feel some type of way idk how to explain it 😭

Magenta: Favourite memory?

This is gonna sound so wild and random but as a kid i used to just see??? random shit??? i still do esp whenever i get rlly stressed or sad i think that’s a problem ngl...😟😟

But I remember being rlly little and playing in my schools playground and i saw this HUGE ladybird disappear behind the greenhouse we had, it must’ve been like the size of a bear-ish? I saw the same thing when I went to a petting zoo with my family but it was a blue and orange bug instead. I remember being so so weirded out and happy bc i’d just seen this HUGE bug but ofc it wasn’t real i’d just imagined it

Purple: What makes you nostalgic?

oooo boy so much, i still cannot register that 2020 was 2 years ago so much has happened so quick n ngl it’s so scary 😭 honestly any trends and songs from 2019/2020 make me feel nostalgic. I was on cosplaytok so any of the “pov” tiktoks idk how to explain

Also old songs like Locked Out Of Heaven and Bubblegum Bitch, i remember playing them in 2014 when i was 10? and now i’m 18🧍🏻

Omg hi anonnie !!! I missed u so much I thought u disappeared on me !! I’m sorry you haven’t been feeling well :( I hope u get to feel amazing soon 💗 sending u lots of luv 💗💗

I watch BTR and Victorious on soap2day.to :D I just use an Adblock from chrome so u don’t get spammed with ads !

Choosing top 5 comebacks IS hard !! They’re all so good 😭 svt NEVER disappoints 😼 My top 5 would be: Home;Run , Manse , Adore U , Ready To Love , and Fear 👩‍🍳👩‍🍳

FOR THE SAME REASON JUST DIF SONG home;run was the comeback I got to experience while stanning so it has a special place in my heart :’)

I remember when manse came out, I was a very casual listener and I was so obsessed with it like I think I bought it on iTunes 👩‍🦲

Adore U is a debut song that never gets old and I just enjoy hearing Seokmin’s “baby you are my- ANGEL” so much ugh I luv him

READY TO LOVE IS ONE OF MY FAVS TOO BCS ITS SO ROMANTIC AND FUN LIKE MAKES ME FEEL LIKE I HAVE A CRUSH OR SMTH

and obviously fear 🧍‍♀️they looked so good on stage and that era brought so much attention to them and I literally beg they do more concepts like that 👩‍🦲

[jayflrt]

haha im going to my friend's prom! she went to mine and im going to hers. ngl her's was kinda more fun bc of venue 😭 IT WAS SO MUCH BETTER THAN MINE it rly gave that royalty au vibes i got so many pictures 😁 and also finally met her friends so it was fun!

my last week of school was nice and chill i was mostly scrambling to finish my chem final and just getting people to sign my yearbook! i got this set of colourful pens i got on my birthday that i never got to use and i finally used them so my yearbook is very colourful which i like bc there's so many msgs and having the different colours rly helps with reading them 😭

i unfortunately got covid so i had to miss my graduation 😭 i completely recovered now but i was rly bummed out for a couple of days, esp on the day of. i retraced my days and figured out by timelines that i contracted it on my last day of school and thats so 💀 one of my friends said the school left me a parting gift 👹 apparently some people with covid went to grad anyways but i didnt want to be one of those people even though i rly rly wanted to go anyways

my clubbed performed a dance! i also had a short solo towards the end and it was jusy rly fun so at least there's that good memory left from my school ig ansjdffkv hehe thank you for the virtual flowers 💓

and i did listen to bts' comeback! i was an army for a while previously so seeing them always flickers an old flame in me even though i dnt "stan" them anymore. all the new songs are great! i love the vibes of run bts but searching it on google is a hassle bc theres their show and also their song from hyyh era 😭

also this 😭😭 not the livetweeting while getting eaten by a titan. also imagining that era having technology would be so. funny. and weird 💀 imagine the subtweeting between the outside and the inside of the walls 😭 absolute chaos.

anyways i hope you've been well! i can rest properlt now bc im covid free now and my symptoms werent horrible but it was still so annoying going through it 💀😭 stay safe and healthy !

- 🌻

omg i’m so glad you had fun !! 🥰💖 also royal vibes??? i’m so jealous omg 🤩🤩 i’ve been seeing these tiktok’s of recreations of the queen’s ball from bridgerton and it looks like an absolute dream 🤧

AHHH THE COLORFUL PENS 😌 NO SHAME I BOUGHT A WHOLE SET FOR MY YEARBOOK TOO but everyone only used purple or blue >:(( but yesyes it’s so much easier to read that way !!! when everything in the same blue/black ballpoint pen it gets confusing and you just have to distinguish by handwriting :’)

OMG NOOOOOO IM SO SORRY 😭😭😭😭 I HOPE THEY MADE UP FOR IT AT LEAST <//3 if it makes you feel any better i heard a lot of schools have been fucking up graduation this year (ig bc it’s the first year of being back in person??) but i met with my friend and she was telling me our high school’s graduation ceremony was super messy this year and they were unorganized and didn’t account for students in the heat bc ppl were passing out :( i’m rlly glad you’ve recovered tho !! 💖 a happy graduation from me tho !! congrats on making it so far and here’s to the rest of your future <33 not your parting gift being covid 💀💀 at least it’s a memory to remember !! 🥳

WAIT THATS SO COOL IM SURE U SLAYED 🥰🥰 what club is it ?? :o if you don’t mind sharing HAHAH but that’s so awesome that you got a solo :o i’m glad you got to do it before covid tho ! and you said it was your first in person event right?

omg same here :’))) i don’t stan as much as i used to but i still feel nostalgic looking at content ,, plus i’m getting back into them (even tho they’re on a break LOLL) but jeon jungkook and jung hoseok…… 🧎‍♀️ HAHAH YEAH OMG but they better use that for their next run bts season openings

TBH IDK WHY THAT IDEA EVEN CAME TO MIND LOLLL i wasn’t even rewatching aot or anything 😭😭 ig i was just thinking of how much more convenient phones would be instead of eren screaming ab killing the titans and everyone running after him 🧍‍♂️

i feel u omg :(( my symptoms were rlly annoying too even tho i’ve had colds worse than it 🤧 i’m glad you’re better now tho and i hope you’ve been staying well and healthy !! do you have any plans for your break now? :oo
