i genuinely think the people who insist the life series is scripted just don’t understand the difference between something scripted and something that’s been given a basic premise and directives that everyone involved in agrees to play along with for the bit. like, no, specific moments aren’t scripted, but there’s a reason the series isn’t just “best pvper wins” and it’s because they deliberately prioritise entertainment over pure skill because the same person winning every time just wouldn’t be fun.

like, for the most part they’re a bunch of drama kids who have been given the perfect playground to act out the shakespearian tragedy of their dreams (some more so than others) (hello rendog) and they’re given the tools and situation to do so but everything else is just improv. and they’re also just having fun like i think we should all remember they’re doing this to have fun with their friends and play on a server where anything goes and they can grief all they want and sometimes they’ll just make stupid mistakes like walking off the side of a diving board and dying because they were so miffed about losing to a best tower competition they forgot where the stairs were, or blowing themselves up with their own tnt trap because they placed one block in the wrong place.

also i think people forget just how generally predictable people are in general, like after five seasons you can definitely start to guess how people will behave because they’re just like that. joel is reckless and he likes to poke the bear, martyn is good at staying alive but not good at keeping hearts (the difference between winning limlife and going out early in secret life), scott is good at the social game and a formidable opponent but also terribly self sacrificial, bdubs will betray anyone he’s allied with if offered something good, etc etc etc

‘sam and john are so similar’ well okay. sure, to an extent. both sam and john are (or at least sam starts off being) stubborn, relentlessly driven personalities. but i would argue dean has just as much capacity to be like that as sam. sometimes more. ‘sam and john clash because they’re similar’ idk, maybe, i’m sure that could be and probably is part of it to an extent, but i would put it More down to the fact that john treats his sons Awfully and sam reacts to this (as he should!) by fighting it & being angry with him. john and sam could be nothing alike and they’d still fight like hell

& anyway just because dean thinks sam and john are similar doesn’t make it true. half the reason he probably thinks they’re similar is because of his relationship w them, which is the same intense dogged devotion, though with john it’s expressed through obedience and with sam it’s expressed through possessiveness. they’re a family they’re all like each other. sam and dean are alike in a hell of a lot of ways!! yeah sam’s paralleled with john sometimes but he’s also paralleled with mary. yeah dean plays/has played the role of mary sometimes but he also 100% is always striving to fill the role of john. people are complex! sam and dean are complex characters because they’re good characters! not everything is black and white!

much thoughts about shri’iia only knowing the most basic of common (like yes/no/what/hello) when she gets dropped off in the surface so she ends up learning from the companions mostly gale bc in turn she probably teaches him common drowic and MUCH thoughts about astarion eventually being the one who teaches her bc they spend a lot of time together at night (since they don’t need sleep) and that’s soooooo tangled rapunzel to me sharing a book together and he teaches her basic phrases and how to read common. like shri’iia knowing key words in common like kill or die so he’s like ok here’s how you say kill yourself 🤭 and she parrots it back to him, kys! then he cackles bc he’s teaching her the most diabolical funny shit and she just says it back. but eventually he stops treating it like a game (like after she drew his scar for him) and he teaches her proper. at night when everyone is asleep they read a book together and he tries his best to teach her what it says —I also imagine they mind link often bc if he can’t describe it properly he can at least show her, and she’s like slowly learning how to speak common through him.

that’s also part of the accidentally falling in love 🫵 bit

Entering depressed dreamty wave era of the month, I’ll excuse myself for being moody, I randomly feel like crying on the floor.

Uhhhhhh I promise I’m cooking something up guys. Promise… I’ll even show you the plan(?)

(Directly pasted from discord but I make it more Tumblr Talk A.K.A punctuating and rephrasing my unpunctuated word vomit)

Klance post canon, but the internet is obsessed over Keith. Since the internet is the internet, they end up graphically talking about how much they want to smooch Keith and do some Stuff with him, and Lance is not very happy about this.

Some random event comes up, and overnight Lance is instantly trending on social media!! He now has a bunch of people drooling over him too!!

The paladins do go attend galas and interviews and all that schmooze because they are celebrities (they literally saved the world??). People eat the content that is posted up, and that’s when the first few klance shippers rise. Most people are like “??? Where did you get that from” but the klancers are confident in their ship.

Keith and Lance are put into their old “rival” dynamic��instead of combat-related issues, it’s now about who is hotter. People argue about this A LOT and honestly KL probably talks about their rivalry in at least one of the interviews,which makes the fans EVEN CRAZIER!!

The Klancers are seen as delusional for picking up the (VERY REAL) fond looks Keith gives Lance in interviews because “Keith isn’t gay!!” (*cough* Lance is openly bi)

AND THEN LANCE GETS CASTED TO STAR IN A TV SERIES??? Everyone is pumped especially because he’s one of the main characters and he’s being paired with this one pretty girl (IT COULD BE ANY POPULAR WOMAN IDK) that he’s met up with a couple of times.

Flash forward to the series debut (and maybe even the second season) and people ARE GOING FERAL! Not only because Lance and the girl in the show are depicted as a really cute couple and have a really good development of their relationship throughout the first like 2 seasons before they get together (WHAT KLANCE COULD’VE BEEN, DREAMWORKS.), but mainly because there’s a NEW leaked bts where Lance is spinning the girl around in the rain and doing romantic stuff idk and people are posting about how they want to go jump in a highway

But then someone posts a video of lance spending time with keith IN THIS LITTLE LAKE WITH A WATERFALL!!1!1!!1 AND HE’S TWIRLING KEITH AROUND JUST LIKE HE DID WITH THE GIRL??1?1!!1?

The internet explodes again.

things to note:

Keith is giggling in the video. Don’t ask why, I’m just correct.

The romance between Lance and The Girl in the series WILL BE 200% non-toxic. This is so I can make a plethora of people scream and cry over it in the fic, just like how they did with klance in 2017 (Except for the fact that. Y’know… they didn’t end up together 💀💀).

Jealousy will be a huge element in the story. Whether it’s Lance/The Girl or Keith/I don’t fucking know, there is going to be lots of yearning.

Uhhhhh I’m terrible at making stories and consistently updating so I can’t promise you a completed fic!!

If I do end up committing to The Bit and completing the story, I would aim for it to be around at least 50k(?), with like 20 chapters at most.

I am NOT finished with VLD (currently on 4x6), so as I run through the seasons there is probably going to be more and more references to the show as I update!

Thanks for reading this whole little thing!! I will say some of this was inspired by the fic Headlines by an orphan account. I highly recommend the fic!

I hope to get the first chapter of this fic out by next week (the 27th), but I am also notorious for procrastinating, so we’ll see.

Sneak peek of “Water Under the Bridge”

Practice went mostly well, aside from Jim skying the blade, Shorty catching too high, and Don frustratingly blaming Joe for rushing the slide. All these hiccups combined with Bobby’s personal life woes caused him to get short with his oarsmen. At one point, he told Don to bring up the stroke rate and when he failed, he once again blamed Joe, which led to the two bickering. Bobby couldn’t take it anymore and after calling ‘Way ‘nuff’, he shoved his megaphone up his forehead.

“Oh for the love of all good things would you two just knock it off!!” He glared at Don as his tone turned mean. “In case you forgot, Hume, you’re stroke. Joe follows you and is matching your rate; which is way freaking lower than what I asked for by the way.” he paused and inhaled before pulling the megaphone back down. “So, you gonna do what I ask now?”

Don simply frowned in response and after Bobby gave the command to row, the boys obeyed and when Bobby called to pick up the rate, Don tried something different. Bobby called him out and when Don tried to protest, Bobby lost it.

“Are you in a coxless four now?” his carotid artery bulged in his anger. “Because last I knew, we’re in an eight. And in an eight the cox gives the orders. Not the darn stroke.”

All the boys stared at Bobby, each one a little taken aback by his sudden burst of anger. Yeah, their coxswain had a big personality and was a bit of a fireplug but this kind of outburst was unusual for him.

“What’s your problem, Moch?” Chuck shouted from the two seat.

“Don’s my problem!” He gestured to his stroke. “Thinks just ‘cause he’s stroke, he can do whatever the heck he wants and call all the darn shots.”

Don leaned over his oar, a confused look on his face. “I nev–”

“I tell you to do one thing, you do the exact opposite. What do you call that?”

“An honest mistake,” Jim piped in as Shorty suffered a coughing fit in front of him.

“Stay outta this, McMillan!” He snapped before fixing his focus back on Don. “Pull any more stunts like this and I’ll tell Coach your butt needs to be moved to a different seat!”

A look of hurt flashed across Don’s face and he picked up his oar. The heck he was gonna be moved to a different seat. He glared at Bobby.

Bobby opened his mouth to speak again but as soon as he did, Ulbrickson shouted that it was time to quit through his megaphone. All eight of the boys breathed a silent sigh of relief before they paddled back to the dock.

There you have it! It’s simply a proof of life post to show I’m still writing👉🏻👈🏻😁 Which I am, obviously, I’m just slow. Wholesome content takes a while to put out, ya know? Plus I had to run this part by my coxswain friend on Instagram😁 Can’t have real rowers reading this and being all “Well, SHE doesn’t know what fye heck she’s talking about, lol at this crap!” and all that glitter and gore, ya know? It’s gotta be believable. (It was her idea to have Bobby threaten to have Don moved to a different seat/different boat)

You’ll be seeing more of them later I’m sure

Howdy! I very recently got into Supernatural and have seen you post about it a few times. I’m really enjoying the first few seasons rn (Sam is so much more of a baby than I was expecting, I love it 😆), but I also know the show goes batshit the further along you get. Is there a specific season or arc where I should start lowering my expectations??? I just wanna be emotionally prepared for when things start switching over so I can still have fun 😭

(Love your Nightwing content btw!)

Hmm… I think most people enjoy seasons 1-5 (though for me I strongly prefer 1-3 over the other two). After that, opinions will more strongly differ about which seasons or arcs are bad. I struggled with season 6 a bit because of circumstances surrounding Sam. A lot of people liked Sam more because of the circumstances. I know a lot of people didn’t like season 7, but I remember liking it. And then, personally, I always struggled with the seasons where Sam and Dean were strongly at odds with each other. Some arcs felt too drawn out to me (Metatron and Mark of Cain Dean… sorry don’t exactly remember which seasons those arcs fall under).

Honestly, I think one of the worst parts of later seasons is how weak the angels are portrayed. And they really played on the angels/demons + heaven/hell stuff for waaay longer than they should’ve. Also, Dean seems like more of a dick in certain aspects in those later seasons when a character named Jack comes into play. But that’s not until like 13/14/15…? Yeah like those very last seasons. Again, memory is bad.

Some fun characters do come in at later seasons though like Charlie and Rowena, so I’d stick around for them. Charlie… might have been as early as season 7? Yeah… I think she was involved in all that. My memory of when certain things happened is so bad. But the Sam and Rowena relationship (not romantic mind you) is one of my favs.

I still found the show fun even when parts of it were bad, and that’s because of the bond between the brothers. So I can’t say for certain when to stop because I couldn’t make myself stop lol. Once you’re in, you’re locked in for good.

watching the beginning of season 1 spn is so weird like this is such a different show than what spn would eventually become. like it’s so dark and serious and every episode is a monster of the week and dean and sam barely know each other at all and they havent done awful things or died for each other yet and theyve got no one but each other and they barely know anything about the monsters they hunt let alone angels and the devil and god and they just have no idea that their lives are about to get so much worse and that they’ll want to give up but they wont, they’ll sacrifice everything for the world and each other and i just watch these episodes and think they’ve got no idea what’s coming

[quietlyblooms]

i was thrown off my writing rhythm but dw— i’ll definitely bug more of you out of the blue later 💜 that’s something i’m gonna try to do more vs waiting for either of us to catch the other at the right time when we’re posting memes/starters/etc. if chiyo ( or any muse of mine ) makes grabby hands at someone, i’m gonna just go for it uvu

[chilfucked]
