#AAAAAA it really is ironic

[the-ninja-legacy-whip]

Not a question but I just want to say, thank you for making the whole legacy verse

I really, reallyyyy love the way you write and the headcanon you come up with, especially how they fix a lot of issues of the show

What I especially like is how lloyds element works in your universe as well as the idea of the guardians

Your ocs are also really fun characters. Normally I'm not a fan of fanfic authors inserting their ocs into their fics but in this case, I do like them a lot and don't find them unnecessary. They have good personalities, add to the plot without feeling too forced in and give room for character development

I just wanted to let you know and give more positivity(⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠)

*sudden kindness?!* UWAAH NERD ANON THANK YOU SM!!!! ;w;

[from my heart to yours! ✩ // bachira meguru]

PAIRING: bf!bachira (blue lock) x afab!reader

SUMMARY: your boyfriend might need a creative outlet outside of soccer, so doing a craft night together can be a fun way to spend time together.

TYPE/GENRE: heart to heart! ya’ll are painter luvers, def sfw, fluff with comfort (?), humor cz it’s crack, and bachira being a softie YIPEE!

CW/TW: explicit words (sh!t) and like having paint in your skin.

WORD COUNT: 2.1k

A/N: wanted to cope w/ my exams last week so i made this HAHAHA enjoy aaaaaa i luv this bby sm ><

"have you ever noticed how football looks like a giant game of keep-away?"

bachira asked as he continued on mixing the two pigments on his palette. you paused on your sketching from your canvass to look at him. you couldn't help but snicker at his response. 

"i mean, it's just a bunch of grown men chasing a ball around, trying to hog it as much as possible. it's like a bunch of toddlers fighting over a toy."

you snorted as you playfully rolled your eyes at him. "how ironic, meguru." you sarcastically stated and continued on with your work, diverting your attention to the half-made composition you drew. "don't you want to read between those lines?"

you and bachira decided to have a craft night together, and bachira got really excited when you suggested painting instead of crocheting. after all, he had a reputation for being a man of action, and crocheting just seemed too 'delicate' for him. plus, the idea of being able to create something with his own hands really appealed to him. however, when he realized how much patience and focus it took to paint, he quickly regretted his decision and muttered something about how he should have stuck with crocheting.

but despite his initial frustrations, bachira actually started to enjoy painting once he got into the flow of it. he found that the creativity and self-expression he could experience through painting was a refreshing change from the rigidity and discipline of soccer training. he even started to experiment with different techniques and art styles, and you could see the excitement and fascination on his face as he worked.

bachira shrugged, a mischievous glint in his eyes. "i guess i let my inner cynic take over at times," he said, a slight blush creeping up his cheeks. "but honestly, sometimes it feels like that's all soccer is - just a bunch of dudes chasing after a ball and trying to score,"

you watch him dip his brush into the mixture of colors and then apply it to the canvas in a rapid series of strokes, creating an intricate pattern. "it's easy to forget that there's more to it than just that, and that the game can be so rewarding on so many different levels."

you smiled at his response, appreciating his willingness to share his thoughts and emotions. "i completely agree," you said, brushing paint onto the canvas. "sure, the thrill of scoring a goal is amazing, but there's so much more to the game than that. it's about teamwork, strategy, and determination. all things that can be applied to so many other aspects of life. it's what makes soccer such a universal and powerful sport, in my opinion."

you reach over to his side for a different brush from his toolkit to add a new texture or technique to his painting. you feel bachira's head nodding in agreement from your shoulder.

"exactly," he said as he looked over at your shoulder to gaze at your pretty face. "it's so much more than just a game - it's a way of life. and it's something that connects people from all over the world, regardless of race, religion, or language. it's a language that everyone can understand. a-and that's what makes it so special, in my opinion."

as the two of you sat together, surrounded by brushes, paints, and canvases, you couldn't help but notice the way bachira's eyes lit up with excitement whenever he talked about soccer or art. he took his time explaining the nuances of different strategies, and you found yourself getting lost in his passion for the game. you could tell that he was someone who loved diving deep into the details and figuring out the best way to approach a situation.

and it wasn't just his soccer stories that captivated you - bachira was an incredible artist too. you were really impressed. 'not bad for a first timer, huh?' you thought as you watched him humming a tune while painting. there was something truly captivating about watching him mix colors and apply them to a canvas, and you found yourself genuinely impressed by the beauty and depth of his creations. You could tell that he had a unique and powerful vision, and you felt honored to be a part of it.

clearing his throat, bachira decided to switch gears, "the way that painting helped me express my emotions and release stress," as he spoke, his voice became softer and his eyes more soulful, and you found yourself drawn in by his passion and eloquence. "and how every brushstroke was like a part of myself being transferred onto the canvas to be shared with the world."

as the two of you sat there, surrounded by the mess of paints, brushes, and canvases, you couldn't help but feel a sense of tranquility and calm wash over you. bachira's words, filled with passion and emotion, echoed in your ears, making you feel as though you were the only two people in the world.

it was as if time had stopped in that moment, frozen in place, allowing you to fully savor the depth of feelings between you. the silence was broken only by the occasional brushstroke, the sound of pigment on canvas almost mesmerizing in its own right.

you found yourself being drawn in by bachira once again - his cute and focused expression on his face, and the little pout on his lips. and his eyes, his eyes are as though they were a window to his soul. the tension in the air was palpable, and you could feel the electricity between you.

it was during this moment of connection that Bachira suddenly turned to you and spoke from the heart. "i love you," he said simply, but with a depth of emotion that made your heart skip a beat. the words hitting you like a bolt of lightning. it was like a shockwave that traveled through your entire being, leaving you speechless and overwhelmed with emotion.

it was as though all the pieces of your life had finally fallen into place, and you knew, in that moment, that you had found something truly special with bachira. the love between you was palpable, and you couldn't help but feel like you were the luckiest person in the world to have found someone who understood and appreciated you on such a deep level. the moment felt all too precious, and you were desperate to hold on to it forever.

feeling a surge of warmth and affection for this man who had become such an important part of your life, you whispered, "i love you too, meguru."

you wanted nothing more than to wrap your arms around him and hold him close.

and that's exactly what happened next. bachira pulled you into an embrace, his arms strong and comforting around you. you breathed in the scent of his hair and the warmth of his body, and felt a sense of contentment wash over you. for a moment, it felt like nothing else in the world could possibly matter, except for the two of you in each other's arms.

but then, suddenly, you felt the sensation of a brushstroke on your cheek. bachira chuckled and pulled away from you, holding the brush in his hand. "i couldn't resist," he said with a boyish grin. "i thought a little bit of art on my sweet baby could add to the moment."

"wh-"

you watch as he dipped the brush into a jar of red paint and drew half of a heart on your cheek, using soft and careful strokes that made you feel as though your skin were being caressed. "what do you mean?"

then, he turned to his own cheek and you see him drawing the other half of the heart, before turning back to you.

"a little art that," he pressed his right cheek to your left so that the two halves of the heart joined together to form a full symbol of love and connection. "connects the both of us together."

you feel like you were going to cry then and there. the moment was so perfect, so full of both sweetness and passion, that you knew that it would be a memory that would stay with you forever. "because the heart that you gave to me is so special to me."

"meguru…"

he hears your faint whisper and looks at you.

"thank you,” you said softly, your voice tinged with both affection and reverence. “it’s so beautiful and meaningful…”

at the sound of your voice, bachira's eyes soften, and he leans closer to you, his breath warm on your cheek. you can feel the beat of his heart as it races against your own, and you know that you are both caught up in the same moment. it's as though the world has melted away, leaving just the two of you in a bubble of sweet, shared emotions.

as bachira's lips brush against your ear, his voice is little more than a whisper. "y/n, you are like nothing else in this world, and the love that i feel for you is something that i will never take for granted.”

the words seem to hang in the air between you, like a precious jewel that you both want to hold onto forever. for a moment, it feels as though time has stopped, and the two of you are lost in each other's gaze. the world around you seems to have dissolved, leaving only the two of you and the love that you share.

bachira kissed your forehead ever so softly.

it's a moment that you know you'll never forget, a moment of pure and unadulterated joy and emotion that feels like it could go on forever. in that moment, you feel like you are both the luckiest people in the world, surrounded by love and understanding that will see you through whatever life may throw your way. and you know that this will be a memory that will stay with you forever, a reminder of the magic that can exist in the world when two people find each other and allow themselves to fall completely, hopelessly in love.

for a moment, the two of you were lost in silence, enjoying the warmth and comfort of each other's presence. it was a quiet moment, yet it was full of a palpable sense of connection and appreciation. you felt like you had found something truly special in bachira, something that went beyond words. and you knew that it would be a friendship that would last a lifetime.

**BONUS!**

it was a quiet night in bachira's room, the air thick with the scent of paint and the soft sound of bachira's music wafting through the air. you and bachira were both painting, the two of you lost in the world of art and creativity that you shared.

as you worked on your canvas, you looked over at bachira's artwork and couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration for his skill and talent. "that actually is pretty art, bachira," you said quietly, your voice tinged with awe.

bachira looked up at you, a small smile playing at the corners of his mouth. "well ofc it would be," he said, his tone teasing. "why, what did you think before?"

you felt a small flush of embarrassment fill your cheeks, but it was quickly replaced by a laugh. "i thought it was gonna be shit," you replied, your tone equally as teasing.

"y/n!" bachira whined, the sound making you laugh even harder.

the two of you continued to laugh, your voices filling the room with a sense of warmth and joy. it was moments like this that reminded you of just how special your relationship with bachira was, the way that you could be completely and utterly yourself around him and still be loved and appreciated for it.

it was then that bachira spoke, his voice soft and almost hesitant. "y/n," he said, his eyes meeting yours. "this actually connects us, yeah?"

your breath caught in your throat at the simple beauty of his words, and you couldn't help but feel a lump form in your throat. "of course it does," you said softly, your voice almost shaking with emotion. "it's a piece of art that represents the love that we have for each other, and that's something that will always connect us."

bachira smiled, his eyes full of a tender warmth that filled you with a sense of peace and love. it was in that moment that you knew that this was a moment that you would always remember, a moment of pure and unadulterated joy and emotion that was unlike anything else you had ever experienced.

@tsunag1, 2023 — i ws on a hiatus sorry guys! mm but now i’m back on the role 💪😼‼️woot pls like and reblog my works if you like it! it's helpful and is vv much appreciated, thank you for reading! ♡

[mayordea]

aaaaaa. i like this one now so i am going to post it

so. for about five days i've committed to getting back into attempting to Do Music and i wanted to do bad apple since it's a very repetitive song which means i can spend more energy getting silly with the inst. this marked many firsts for my musical journeys that sort of reinvigorated my motivation for making covers. first time using utau for vocals, first time actually mixing the vocals w the inst (it's not perfect but the fact i actually mixed at all makes it a significant cut better than my past covers), also using a different program for the final inst to make the instruments sound better which i think paid off. more rambles under the cut.

i originally had this big ambitious plan of making four versions, 2 in english 2 in japanese done in utau and synthv. but well my frankenstein'd english lyrics from three different sources didn't end up lining up with the original length of the japanese and also after the emotional rollercoaster that was trying to tune milk in openutau i just wanted to settle with one version.

the vocalist is milk whom i discovered recently. she has her rough spots that i'm not fully used to ironing out yet but i really fell in love with her voice (and design). i originally planned for hoshino hanami to be my main vocalist (another utau i've come to love) but she didn't have that range i needed. i would like to make a cover with her though--i've got my eye on meltdown (though that may take a while ough).

i switched vocalists midway through and had to figure out milk's different quirks on the fly--like she had a completely different phonemizer and more options to pick from for voice colors and sound variants and i was still VERY new to utau and finding help online was tough. figuring out how to use her vocal fry was really frustrating even though i didn't end up using it cuz i didn't know how to make it sound good lol..... AND i was having a crisis about how i couldn't make her sound good no matter what i did and how i felt like such a fraud before i realized mixing it really is the secret sauce to making a vsynth vocal sound good. like i know i can improve on both areas but the difference really is night and day. it is because of that that i want to go back and remake some of my other older covers with this extra processing applied and actually have them reach closer to their potential.

but despite the lows i ventured i walked out of this cover more proud of myself than past projects, and that's why i want to keep trying my hand at more song covers since the process is pretty fun!! may spring back and forth between synthv and utau vocalists, both have their perks ofc but i do get a bit of a kick out of manually tuning in utau (even tho it takes forever)

Aaaaaa i did not expect you to reply so soon! Love your perspective, especially the part about spain playing favourites and choosing the most catholic and most resource heavy 😭😭.. i feel like most people never really talk about former colonies and their colonisers... bc theres no way india would be that happy and pleasant with england😭😭.... anyways rant over im really into ur latin america hcs... especially mexico... 😇😇

anonymous asked:

Sorry if im spamming you but i also just had a thought... since mexico would be very similar to spain, would he be equally as delusional... or worse? I think he would start thinking hes in some telenova or hes a cowboy or something ( north america try not to be delusional challenge)(impossible)

i saw the ask and my brain went ding ding that is extremely rare round of applause for anon please do keep spamming i'm on a roll here

oo! i feel like spain is in an interesting position among colonisers and their former colonies; i'm pretty sure, or at least headcanon, that he found pretty much all of his former colonies as chibi's, kind of like china, so they probably don't have as many memories of their native cultures that were stripped from them. that's why they might not bare as intense hatred for spain as someone like vietnam would hold for france.

but there's definately alot of resentment. i think this is especially prominent for peru, who i have often seen characterised as quite in touch with his parent, Inca's, culture and history, and probably wonders what his life might have looked like if he had been allowed to grow up out of spain's iron grip.

i headcanon that latin america, spain's portion of it at least, try to make spain feel as excluded and alienated from what antonio perceives as his 'legacy' in the america's, it's a way to subtly let out some of their repressed resentment towards him.

and on india — you're definately right! i think england and india have a much more snarky? relationship. india is nearly as old as china and was trying to finesse his way through europe's colonial era only to get stuck with this entitled asshole with a superiority complex, that's gotta breed some strong resentment. india is alot like china in the way that he just tolerates those he dislikes for the sake of politics - he's not getting chummy with england unless there's something in it for him.

back to latin american colonisation — i've always characterised mexico as being one of the former spanish colonies that drinks the 'big brother spain' kool-aid. he's not so delusional about colonisation as he is not wanting to recognise how much of a monster spain really was. i can't imagine josé likes to hear or talk about the aztec empire's slaughter at spain's hands; it tears him apart that he lost his actual parent to the only parental figure he knows.

and this definately bleeds into his yandere psyche. mexico doesn't like to confront the reality that any love his darling has for him is manufactured; stockholm syndrome at best, entirely faked at worst. he doesn't like to think of himself as being manipulative or wrong because the implications of that truth are just too much for him to handle.

this is definately where he differs most strikingly from spain; fundamentally, spain isn't able to see the reality of his actions and how wrong they are or how much he's messed up his darling in the process of 'pursuing' them. it's all just a grand romance, his darling is the one with the issues.

josé is definately the type to play into whatever fantasy will best charm his darling, and try to glamourise the relationship "we would make good characters for a telenovela, cariño! we would have so many fans". he likes to compare his actions to others to justify them as well "spain had his own key for your room back in the day" and make intruding on their life seem so normal.

not to mention, piggybacking off my last post, latin america would be a cesspool of yandere's validating each others behaviours. they all picked it up from spain at somepoint, maybe even from each other, so no one bat's an eye when mexico goes on another obsession fueled rant; some countries he's closer to might even offer to help.

the fandom likes to hype up russia and belarus as scary but at least people recognise them as dangerous. latin america is equally as dangerous if not more, imagine being stuck between one, two, or more of them? at least in europe you can pit yandere's against each other, spain raised his colonies as siblings and despite their conflicts they are capable of mass cooperation.

OBEY ME????? *hides my lucifer cardboard cut-out* MERA PLEASE TELL ME THAT YOU HAVE HEARD AND READ THE TRANSLATION OF CRAZY ABOUT YOU (aka barbatos song) i am sorry octotrio but you guys are getting out stand by my fav obey me boys (Okay maybe I can focus my attention on all of them)

-Cuchito anon

I HAVE AAAAAA,,, it's very catchy!!! Omg and the lyrics!!!! 👁 👁 he's really singing about how much househusband material he is. Barbatos, are we about to kiss right now?!?!?! If he's crazy about me, naturally I must be crazy about him as well. orz orz this must be the Jade Leech effect because 2019 Meraki was not interested in Barbatos at all, but now I'm here in 2024 and I'm on my knees for him. orz orz orz

I could put him in a tmdg plot, but instead of rivalry between brothers it would be something like: obsessed darling wants to get closer to Diavolo in hopes of winning his heart, and Barbatos offers to help (in return you advise him so he can improve his human dishes) because (aside from Lucifer) he's the closest to Lord Diavolo. <3 Barbatos gives you a rundown in something he likes to call Diavolo Trivia so that you can have better chances at charming Diavolo. Of course, in classic tmdg fashion, things don't go as planned and somehow you're getting tangled up in a situationship with Barbatos hehe. I think, ironically enough, Diavolo would be so supportive of it. T_T nothing is more gutting than having your crush go out of his way to enthusiastically support your "relationship" with the guy you have no feelings for by encouraging you to go on nice dates and whatnot. ;;;;;

But I digress! I do like the potential Barbatos has. If I'm remembering correctly, he has the power to know all future timelines? Or maybe it was something with time itself??? In any case, Barbatos knowing that there's a timeline that exists in which you eventually fall out of love with Diavolo and fall for him; so he strives to reach that timeline. >:D he would be such a terrifying yandere. It's always the too-polite, always-smiling types who will slowly and quietly ruin your life. ^^;;;;

A way too long post about the differences in Shadowhunters show and The Mortal Instruments books.

⚠️Shadowhunters universe spoiler warning⚠️

I'm rereading The Mortal Instruments and I'm just cringing and how much the Shadowhunters show mixed up the whole storyline, LIKE IS THERE ANYTHING FROM THE BOOKS YOU LEFT IN THE SHOW.

But also, I love the show so much because it's absolutely iconic and the scenes and the characters and it's really just so iconic (I'm actually just down bad for Malec scenes and also just Katherine McNamara and Emeraude Toubia and Matthew Daddario ARE SO HOT AAA, DYING. And also the bloopers on the YouTube channel. And every time Alberto Rosende sings. And also who doesn't love Harry Shum Jr. And I love Isaiah Mustafa as Luke AND MY GOD, there are so many more hot characters, basically everyone is so aaaaaa in the cast.)

I JUST WISH YOU KEPT THE STORYLINE BECAUSE SOME THINGS ARE JUST SO WTF.

LIKE WHO DECIDED TO DELETE SIMON'S WHOLE BAND, CHANGE MADAME DOROTHEA LIKE THAT, MAKE THE INSTITUTE A PLACE WITH A SHIT TON OF PEOPLE IN IT, WHO THE FUCK IS HEIDI.

OR WHO DECIDED TO COMPLETELY CHANGE THE CAMILLE STORYLINE.

OR WHO DECIDED THAT JOCELYN SHOULD DIE.

OR WHO MADE AMATIS AN IRON SISTER (actually, 10 out of 10 decision, I love you)

OR WHO DECIDED TO LINK CLARY TO JONATHAN WHEN IT WAS JACE IN THE BOOKS. LIKE THEY WERE LITERALLY LINKED BC IF A PERSON FROM THE LIGHT COMES BACK TO LIFE THEN A PERSON FROM THE DARK ALSO HAS TO BECAUSE BALANCE AND THEY WERE LINKED TOGETHER BY THE CEREMONY AND ALL THAT SHIT LIKE ARGH.

OR THE BIGGEST "WHO DECIDED THAT" IS MAKING CLARY FORGET EVERYTHING, WHEN IT WAS ACTUALLY SIMON WHO FORGOT EVERYTHING AND HE WAS UNVAMPIRED AND HE WAS TRAINING TO BE A SHADOWHUNTER AND HE BECAME CLARY'S PARABATAI.

And the whole Jonathan line was kinda meh.

I love everything about the show tho, except for the storyline.

[boxwinebaddie]

hi uncle neen! in honor of freckle kyle becoming canon, does jers have freckles? <3

yES!!!!! YES HE DOES!!!!

YES!!!! HE!!! DOOOOOOES!!!!

hooooooly shit, oh My GOD, i am so sorry for being FERAL, you guys, but when i tell you that i have been WAITING FOR THIS QUESTION!

because jerseykyle does not just 'have freckles'.

obviously, everyone's kyle is different and i think a lot of people hc kyle having a nice light smattering over his nose, some light ones on his cheeks, neck and shoulders, which, again, i think is so lovely, i love when kyle has freckles, i think that is a perfect hc, tbh.

bUT JERSEYKYLE??????

JERSEYKYLE HAS FRECKLES.

for days and weeks and months and YEARS!!!!!!

anyways, follow me under the cut if you want my yelling.

okay, so, i wasn't sure how to explain this, but if we don't know, my embarrassing uncle nina lore is that in mid-highschool i used to tumblr rpg often which required the use of faceclaims or irl actors and models so i actually have...a surprising depth and wealth of knowledge when it comes specifically to models/supermodels so...

this is cintia dicker. X / X / X

( yes she is beautiful )

JERSEYKYLE HAS CINTIA DICKER FRECKLES.

like aaaaaalll OVER his damn face. like jersey be dominating boys in the bedroom, but those freckles be DOMINATING HIS FACE, BABY! like light ones, dark ones, idk, but they are fucking everywhere, all over his face, his neck, his arms, his legs, his chest,

EVERYWHERE.

which...Whew. he is sooooo pretty. it is seriously striking like he looks like pale pink sky with a blizzard of amber sparkles on his face. it's so wonderful, like jersey kyle please model for VOGUE. he is that bitch, he is freckly as damn hell, there are HUNDREDS, possibly thousands.

i might be exaggerating...

BUT I NEED YOU TO KNOW HES FRECKLY AS FUCK.

which...he was very embarrassed about for a long time. to this day, it is a large point of insecurity for him bc he feels really weird about them and considered using foundation to cover them up because of how strange and messy he thinks they make his face look because of the way society used to treat them, like they made his face look dirty or imperfect or ugly and AAAAAA OKAY!

so throwback ( as in i want to throw that man off a cliff and run over him several times w/ the barbie jeep i don't know how to drive ) when rm cartman said jers looked like he was 'speckled with shit'. :(((

it made kyle morbidly depressed/insecure to the point where he wanted to rip the skin off his face, but then stan told him that his mom said 'freckles are places where you've been kissed by the sun' and that ky must be 'the sun's favorite' bc he's been kissed so many times and he's trying to catch up…

WHEN I TELL U HE SWOOONED.

ravenstanley marsh, ceo of simping for freckly boys.

speaking of, so one time, i think they were watching a movie and stan was, uh, not watching the movie, he was literally watching jerseykyle. and kyle was like "what are you doing, dummy? is there something on my face?" and ironically stan shook his head and said "yeah, but they're fine where they are..." then trailed off in thought, still intently staring at kyle with Extreme Laser Focus.

and normally, kyle is used to people staring at him, y'know, bc he's fine as hell and really tall, that doesn't really phase him, but ravenstan staring at him makes him SUPER nervous, awkward and flustered, so he's like -anxious laugh- "seriously, dude, what are you do—“ and stan's like "shh" ( in a not condescending, loving way )

"i'm trying to count."

jerseykyle furrows his lovely auburn brow, trying to figure out what he's talking about, realizes what's going on, but still literally in shock, laughs again, because he thinks stan must be joking and goes "oh my gahd, are tryna count my freckles? stan's literally imposs--" and stan shushes again him in a gentle manner and is like "shh, i need to focus. quit distracting me, you're gonna make me lose my place."

literally on his face, counting kyle's, i shit you not, probably over 100 freckles, which i think is soooo fucking CUTE of him because he's literally swimming against the deadly current of his adhd, forcing everything in his constantly fidgeting body to focus so that he can keep count. it's a truly beautiful thing watching r.s.' brain whir and his pretty blue eyes narrow and widen, counting softly under his breath.

ravenstan does, unfortunately, find he can't count them all because like jersey said, it is a pretty damn near impossible task...that did NOT however, stop him from trying multiple times, the last time though, he didn't actually lose count, kyle just kissed the FUCK out of him because it was literally the loveliest thing he'd ever seen.

he did possibly get laid for that, i'm sorry.

but yeah FRECKLE SUPREMACY KYLE AND SPECIFICALLY JERS. that man has so many freckles that his body looks like the night sky on a perfectly clear day, it is...beautiful. it is a work of damn ART.

anyways...i'm done now.

do we see the vision ( of loveliness )

that is jew jersey kyle matthew BROFRECKLOVSKI????

-uncle nina, feral about extremely freckly jersey

p.s. ravenstan, as a man of justice for all and fairness, basically loves all of kyle's one hundred thousand million freckles equally but there is a darker one that is just above the right curve of his lip...THAT IS HIS FAVORITE FRECKLE, I AM SO SORRY IT IS THE EQUIVALENT OF THE RAVENSTAN RIGHT UNDER EYE BEAUTY MARK BUT FOR STAN LIKE HE IS FEEEERAL ABOUT IT. he does...give it a special kiss often...very gay of him. his second favorite freckle is...

anyways!

Next Question. <3

Kudasai Rena:

Class representative

Quirk: Memory Edition, Three parts basically: she members everything, can look into the memories of others, and change other people's memories.

Tanya Alfred:

one of the few foreign exchange students of the 1st year class

Quirk: Limb Generation, she can generate additional limbs (arms, legs, fingers) on her body

Quirk: Stone Statue: can turn any inanimate object (+ eventually living things) into stone with all five fingers. All effects can be reversed.

A prideful person with an outward personality, a kinda a handful. Bros just a big goof tho

Kinzoku Ryosei:

Quirk: Can generate (via iron content in blood) + manipulate metals at a certain range. Honestly, the fact he failed the entrance exam baffles like most of the class.

He’s a little goofy guy, often rambling about absolute nonsense but also a sweetheart

Kangae Noriko: 

⅔ of the main trio

Main character moment

Quirk: Mind reader, literally the most self-explanatory one, she can read the mind of other people.

A cheerful person who likes being with other people can easily talk to anyone without any problems

Ikenoue Hakaru:

Quirk: Melt Off, by touching an inanimate object (or even people) with all five fingers, he can turn anything into a more liquified state.

Alrighttt am close to finishing Pride & Prejudice, about 60ish pages left (am a slow reader okay and I got distracted with Manacled while reading)

Some more thoughts and a lot of yapping (and spoilers? I guess?) I've had in during my recent reads:

First of all, having watched the P&P 2005 movie first and then starting to read the book, I can't help but keep going "Oh this is different!" At some parts akdksk

I love love love the small hints in the book of Mr Darcy liking Elizabeth more and more that is visible in the book. Imma have to rewatch the movie to see how (if) they did that there, but I don't remember noticing it as visibly. In the movie, it felt a bit of a "ah so that's a thing now" while in the book, I noticed some more emphasis/mention of Darcy noticing her more and more, conversing with her, wanting to talk with her and meet her.

I died at the Rosings part when she told him of her daily walk route, assuming he'd want to avoid seeing her, but my man probably went "sweet!" And just came to see her ever since (not to mention, he might've assumed her telling him of her route was a subtle way of inviting him to come see her? Idk my man was down bad he probably took that bit of info and ran with it akfkskkw)

The little things like him moving his chair closer to her- I pretty much died.

Him wondering at whether she'd mind living at a long distance from her family- my man was practically already wondering at if they were wed, meanwhile Elizabeth is confused why he's talking to her akfkskfk

It just feels much more ahh developed? Or hinted at enough to make his feelings to her not come out of nowhere lol

And of course lets talk about the confession scene!! I combusted

I admit that I loved how they did it in the movie; I LOVED the setting (that location and that weather!! Ugh!) and the energy and the tension. Loved every bit. Not to mention how much I liked the actors and how they played the characters!

And yet, I absoloutly went nuts over how Austen did it in the book!! The tension and anger and energy all there, but it just felt more raw and visceral?? Idk how to put it. I just died and came back and died again reading and rereading that scene omg

It's getting to see the narrator mention Darcy taking her silence or lack of negative reply as encouragement to continue with his confession.

It's the earlier back and forths and their witty exchanges, which resulted in him believing them to be on the same page. Hence, the conversation about living at a far distance from her family, I take it he assumed she noticed his intention and he thought he was being rather too direct, which is why his mood changed and he pulled his chair back when he caught himself.

But ironically enough, him thinking they were on the same page and that he was being transparent with her, that she was able to see through him, all just goes to show on how different of a page they were.

It's honestly brilliant.

And that just makes the confession scene work so much better, at least for me.

Getting such a clear view of how he must have feelings for her, and how clear he thought he has been about them, and how he thinks she picked up on it, makes his confession and the tension of that scene work so well, because he really thought they were on the same page. He really expected it to go one way because of those assumptions he'd had.

And then it went so differently, and so horribly at that, that I can't help but claw at my wall aaaaaa it's so good

No wonder he got pale with rage lmao

Ohoh and when Elizabeth went "You are mistaken, Mr Darcy, if you suppose that the mode of your decleration affected me in any other way, than as it spared me the concern which I might have felt in refusing you had you behaved in a more gentleman-like manner." And saw him start at this I DIED she went for the throat and honestly fuck yeah he needed that slap off the high horse

Even as am writing this I reread the scene for what could only be the tenth time already it's just so good aaaahhhh

(Also, I definitely understand that they probably changed the scene a bit in the movie for the sake of making it look more intresting, at least location wise; the outdoor setting and the spot it all takes place in is definitely a more visually intresting scenery to look at than a closed indoor room, and I think it does make the change of the scene work well in the movie! I still love the book version more but I totally see why and love the change was made in the movie adaptation)

Okay another point about the confession scene is how much I loved the irony in Darcy saying it must be because of how he worded his confession, in a way that slighted Elizabeth's pride because of how he mentioned her relations, that she's rejecting him, and yet he had framed his whole declaration on how it was against his better judgement that he came to like her, how he pointed it out the inferiority of her comings and family (and thereby, painting himself superior). That he's pointing out he must've hurt her pride when his whole talk stemmed from his own pride is such irony I love it

And bruh homeboi really expected her to go "whoa am so thankful you came to love me still!" ???? My man really thought she'd be flustered at him insulting her family and telling her he loves her in the same breath and he still had the audacity to pickachu-surprise-face at her own anger at his words akfksd

Okay enough of that scene, I still have a few kore things to talk about akfkjw

Next up is just how much Letters play a role in the story and even in the characters. Idk this is just a brainvomit of some of the notes I'd taken while reading, but the jest of it is the recurrence of characters sending letters as a narrative tool and, oftentimes, a way to paint certain aspects of the characters.

Elizabeth and Jane, while away from each other, both exhange letters regularly, and their correspondence is neat? I think is the word; they take the time to sit down and write to each other. When they recieve a letter, they also take the time to sit down and read it. Like when Elizabeth receives Jane's letter with the news of Lydia and Wickham, just as she and her uncle and aunt were about to leave to go on a walk, it is mentioned that instead her uncle and aunt set off to let her enjoy the letter at her own time. Just the use of the word enjoy speaks volumes to me at how Elizabeth regards these correspondences; a genuine sort of happiness and joy, and hence she likes to take the proper time to read them, and also the time to write them.

So when it says that Jane's first letter got missent somewhere due to her writing the adress remarkably ill, it's hard not to feel a shift or to know something bad must've happened. Because with how much care she usually puts into her letters, something must've caused her haste in writing the adress of that letter, so badly it was sent elswhere.

This broke a formula we kinda grew used to in those correspondences between Elizabeth and Jane, and managed to set a feeling of dread by simply taking something of that status quo and changing it. I just love it so much ugh

Darcy's letter(s) I feel like fall under a similar light; he obviously put a lot of care and time and thought into them. Gave them the time and length needed, given the importance of the content. They were very thorough and expansive, and touched on the important topics and discussed them sufficiently (lmao I feel like am giving him a critique analysis).

It shows enough of his character methinks.

Mr Collins letters, much like he himself is in person, often focus on the flattery. Of others (especially Lady Catherine) and of himself (cuz ironically, by how often he breaks his back complimenting others, he always traces it back to himself, to how he thinks of it, to how grateful he is of it, to how deserving he thinks it is, to how thoughtful he is with it). In person, it was hard to miss how much he cared for the rooms and their furniture and interior, and I chugged it to it symbolising how shallow he is and how much he cares about appearances, whether in the literal sense of the word or more like the esteem and regard others have of him. In his letters, he focuses so much on appearing thoughtful and grateful and thankful and concerned where needed, in a way you feel he's simply doing it in a "but no one could dislike me! I've been nothing but nice and thoughtful etc" way, you feel? Again, by focusing so much on such pleasantries, he seems only focused on coming across positively.

Also, all in all, he's the epitome of "talks a lot but says very little."

Lydia's letters are more or less hasty and careless; it's obvious she doesn't set aside any special time to write them (like her letters to her mom while she was away at Brighton including things like "oh Mrs Froster is calling me so I must haste" or something along the lines) and, much like her own conversations and interests, seem scattered and childish (which, yeah, she is a child. But you get the idea. She comes across as silly, wild and reckless, while also being somewhat shallow)

I just think it's a very neat way to show the personalities of the characters further using the letters as a tool.

Ahhh I think that's mostly it for now!! So many thoughts cuz am loving every bit of this akfksk

[rxttenfish]

hi !!! sending this on anon because i am rather nervous all things considered <:3 (i am lying to you, i have not considered 'all things'.) one monster prom fan to another (can we be compared using such broad terminology ? i feel as if i am domesticated compared to you... [compliment, or at the very least not inherently negative]) , i wanted to thank you SO SO SO VERY MUCH for giving miranda so much love and thought and mulling her over in your mind in such a ... refreshing way

i also really really really like miri , but i can only aspire to have your level of dedication . it feels almost like we are of totally different worlds... !!!!!

thank you for bringing in real world biology too :3 i absolutely adore your design for her so much (this is most likely not proper grammar, but it is very late and i am very cold and so i will hope with all my heart you will excuse this mistake. one of many, i should assume) - though !!!! i do have a question if that is alright ?????

i cant say that a marine macropredator of a significantly vibrant pink really strikes me as advantageous colouring - does the abyssal environment that you say the merfolk live in negate the need for camouflage and such ????? i apologise for sounding passive aggressive !!!! i am merely asking a question. cocking my head to the side if you will

additionally, i would like to ask something foolish. how do they acquire food? i dont want to say 'hunt', because that might seem insulting. historically were they built for stalking, or high speed chases, or...???? please, talk 'nerdy to me' as they say !!! <- in an entirely normal way befitting two strangers of course.

you know, i would have expected to hit the ask word limit by now. but it seems i have not. yippee !!!!

with my extra space, i shall add this: I ABSOLUTELY ADORE THE WAY YOIU WRITE MIRI . GOOD LOOOOOORD IT IS AMAZING HAVIJNG SOMEOENE WHO KNOWS WHAT THEYRE DOING IWIITH HER thank yoiu for making her at least moderately intelligent. i feel blessed <- is this all too harsh sounding???? im a little new to all this letter/ask-writing thing <:3

IN ANY CASE !!!!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOIU SO VERY MUCH. AGAIN. drops this and scuttles away

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/761693443676045363/1183251697129226270/ordered3.png

also i believe you can indeed tell, but i drew that in ms paint with my finger .. sorry that it looks like poop <:3

(moving the image out of the link just in case it breaks-)

AAAAAA THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!! this looks so WONDERFUL i love the way that you've shaped her head and how you've captured how Chunky it is... i know its one of the things people have the hardest time drawing with her so its just all the more impressive how well youve managed to capture her!!!

i also love the little doodles eeeee..... please feel free to toss all ocs at miri, its enrichment for her <3 ironically gentle chewing/biting is a Play and Bonding thing for merfolk so she shall happily Bites Bites Bites back-

(also i LOVE her smile!!! you arent anthropomorphizing in the slightest for that - miri often does have very human expressions in a way that's odd for a merfolk, because she effectively got imprinted during her time spent inland... and its politically useful if you smile and match expressions with the people you're trying to work with anyways)

ill also go ahead and answer your questions because i can! very easily clarify on them!

the color: actually, being bright red and pink is actually very common for deep sea animals, due to the way light works at depth! its why i decided miranda was abyssal, because that felt like the most natural way to explain why she's pink, since it's such an uncommon color in nature.

basically, different colors of light have different lengths! red is the shortest wavelength of light, and blue is the longest. water might be clear, but there's a lot of water in the ocean, and the more water you add, the more it filters out light - which is why the bottom of a pool might be dark and shady, but if you hold a little of the water in your hands there's no shade. the ocean is a lot deeper than a pool, and so it gets darker as you go down, but because it's also clear, it doesn't filter out all that light at the same rate.

red, being the shortest wavelength of light, gets filtered out first, so red often gets quickly darker the deeper down you go, until it's completely black! camouflage is dependent on the environment, so their color and brightness has to match the background, but it also depends on the light that's hitting the animal. it's why fawns have dappled spots, or animals might have black stripes, so they can mimic the light of their environment. and when your environment has no red light, well... red's a pretty good color to be!

because of this, a lot of animals in the deep sea can't actually see red either, which is doubly the reason why you might want to be red! think of it like tigers, and how ungulates often can't see their orange, making them look just about the same color as the foliage around them when they're hunting! miranda might stick out on land, but that's just because we aren't seeing her in the environment she's made for, where she blends in with everything else around her as much as a pure black animal.

(it's also why her bioluminescence is blue - blue is the longest wavelength of light, and the one most animals can see at that depth. if she lights up, then she wants to be seen, and she can even alter her silhouette to appear larger or smaller or breaking it up into multiple shapes if she needs to. it's why her tapetum lucidum is blue when light's shone on it, because there is blue light to be seen at depth, it's just very dim!)

(this is also why giant squid are bright red, and why the stoplight loosejaw fish is so special! the latter actually produces its own red light, and can see red light, which means that it has a secret light that won't reveal where it is but will reveal to it where its prey is!)

food: this is something that depends a lot, because there are actually multiple different species of merfolk, which is mostly my fault because i don't always feel like i communicate this the best. they're all slightly different in how they evolved to capture prey, with abyssals in particular being fuckoff huge ambush predators that attack from below, and others being shallower-water hunters or more adapted for smaller, faster prey - but they all evolved from an ancestor with a fairly consistent prey-capture method.

in short, all merfolk are ancestrally evolved to hunt whales and other large prey items, with all the extant species still holding at least a degree of this. primarily, they were ambush predators who were good at getting in close to their prey before a sudden burst of speed. they would work together in close-knit groups (one of the big pressures for their increasing socialization and larger brains, to coordinate such groups) to all mob a single prey item at once, hitting with force to cause sudden trauma, and then using their claws, double-thumbs, back feet, and mouths to hold onto their prey and refuse to be dislodged. they'd repeatedly claw and use their strong bites and massive heads to rip deeply into their prey, causing further massive trauma and shock, and if that failed, bleeding their prey to death.

think of it like the raptor prey restraint model, just further taking advantage of the fact that they were underwater, where no one else has hands that could potentially rip them off. being smaller and somewhat less-optimized for marine life compared to things like sharks and whales and large fish worked for them, because they had a novel adaptation that allowed them to take advantage of things no one else could, and the numbers to make up for it. this is, likewise, why they never lost their hands and fully developed flippers, instead making their limbs as flipper-like as possible to make up for it.

then as time went on and certain populations became separated from each other, they adapted for slightly different niches, but all remain fairly closely related to each other as a genus.

in the modern day, most merfolk don't really "hunt" for all of their meals, at least not in the same way that we might think. don't get me wrong, they still absolutely hunt and it's a larger part of their lives than it is for most humans, but they have options.

mostly, the merfolk theory for their relationship with nature is to invite it in. this is not to say they aren't controlling and pruning it, but they do live underwater, and it's far harder to keep animals out than it is on land, so merfolk accepted it and worked with it. they'll work to promote growth around their buildings and where they live, fostering the growth of sea grass and algae and coral and other sessile animals, encouraging them to set down and grow in these areas, and they'll then let more wild animals move in, further encouraged by these natural sources of food and shelter, on top of merfolk working even further to encourage them in. they serve as a functional cleanup crew for the merfolk in these settlements, being allowed to eat anything that merfolk might drop or go to waste, and even moreso might be purposefully fed at times, or have specific homes for them built. merfolk will keep encouraging them and taking care of them until they become a biorich hotspot, creating unique oasises for wildlife to live alongside merfolk.

however, this isn't just a free-for-all, persay. merfolk will also purposefully prune these populations and control how they form, often removing "problem" animals and encouraging certain behaviors which makes it easier for these populations to live alongside merfolk, not viewing them as a threat, but also not viewing them as an opportunity either. they will directly shape how these areas grow and cultivate them on a physical level, often using them as an easy shortcut to literally grow their settlements and buildings. but they will also harvest from these populations and selectively breed them, until their cities and towns act as massive public gardens full of food to be caught, picked, and eaten at any time

as there are also a lot of (very politically powerful) nomadic groups, they also do this, albeit not always so directly. they'll have specific shoals or "runs" of fish that they will follow behind and take care of, managing as they move through the ocean in accordance with the seasons. this is where the whales still factor in, because the nomadic groups will also take care of the whales, purposefully keeping an eye on their pods and taking care of them and, when the time comes, being choosy and particular in which whale they select at any given time to be hunted, harvested, and eaten.

(there's also the way in which food is distributed and managed throughout the merkingdom, since some food is indeed shipped and moved throughout the different areas, but that's a different story for another time and i've talked enough)

BUT!!!! thank you so much and thank you for enjoying all of this that ive been making with miri, and thank you for giving me an excuse to talk more about her <3

[artzychic27]

OMG one of my favorite songs is "I'm the Music Meister" and I'd love to see Jesse sing it.

Hehehehe…

Soo-Yeon: Then it sounds to me like it's time to rumble!

Genevieve: Indeed, but it is you who will take the tumble... *She slaps a hand over her mouth*

Brecken: I'm sorry, darlin���, but did you just sing that?

Genevieve: Of course I did not! Wait, yes I did!

I'm sounding shrill against my will, and cannot stop this singing!

Margo: And in my ears, I swear I hear a quite distinctive ringing!

Parker: This silly game is very lame, and someone's gonna pay!

Anthony: An unknown force, but where's the source that has us in its sway?

Candace: Who is doing this to us? And on this, we must concur;

Villain Kids: They're dastardly, despicable, disturbingly inexplicable...

Petra: And imminently kickable!

All: That dirty, rotten rat is...

*Jesse, with a dramatic flourish, appears and belts-*

Jesse: The Music Maestro~!

*The heroes and villains, stunned for a moment, face their new common enemy and unseath their weapons*

Jesse: Put down your arms, my friends, your arrows, guns, and swords.

*Against their will, they drop their weapons and stop using their powers*

Your resistance to my charm now ends, when I belt these power chords!

*The villains of the class, Ayesha, Candance, Eri, Staci, Margo, Brecken, Soo-Yeon, Parker, Eloise, and Anais, completely under Jesse’s control, follow him in a dance number as he takes Anthony into his arms and brings him down for a dip*

Good guys or bad guys, it doesn't really matter;

You are all just slaves to my hypnotic patter!

As I regale you with my story, you'll know you have no choice,

But to do my evil bidding, when you hear this booming voice!

Oh, I'm the Music Maestro!

All: He's the Maestro!

Jesse: And everyone just fawns!

All: He's the Music Maestro, and we are all his pawns!

Jesse: And so for me, it's destiny to be the maestro of villainy!

Yes I'm the Music Maestro, and I'm here to settle the score!

You see, I’ve grown quite tired of playing second fiddle and not being taken seriously as a villain just because of my power. And now that I've established who's in charge...GET TO WORK!

*Zoé, clad in her gear, surveys her fellow schoolmates performing choreography while doing Jesse’s bidding. Staci, with her eye beam, cuts holes through the windows of jewelry stores and banks. Brecken multiplies himself and starts stuffing bags full of valuables … All while dancing*

Zoé: Well… There’s something you don’t see everyday.

*Jesse’s voice turns somber as he recalls when he was younger and sang in the school choir. It was his passion, his first love… And he was made miserable for it*

Jesse: The bullies used to pick on me because I sang in choir,

But something very strange occurred when I kept singing higher!

*His voice becomes lively once more. Smirking, he remembers how he made his first set of puppets do his bidding, and he ruled over that pathetic school with an iron fist!… Then he was stopped by none other than a certain pesky blonde*

The ruffians around me quickly fell into a trance,

And it was then with wicked glee I made those puppets dance!

*She never stopped him from continuing his crime spree, though. And there’s no way she’ll be able to stop him now*

I'm the Music Maestro!

All: He's the Music Maestro!

Jesse: And everyone just fawns!

All: He's the Music Maestro, and we are all his pawns!

Jesse: I'm the Music Maestro! Crime became my path!

Anthony: He's the Music Maestro~

*Jesse suddenly finds himself captivated. He listens closely to find which one of his puppets possesses that heavenly voice, and finds him, the ebony-haired boy in the dark cloak*

Anthony: And we must beware his wrath!

Jesse: That voice!… Beautiful! Aa~aah!

Anthony: Aaa~aaah!

*Jesse and Anthony exchange pitches, belting the notes louder as Jesse leads Anthony in a waltz*

Jesse: Aaaa~aaaaah!

Anthony: Aaaaa~aaaaaahh!

Jesse/Anthony: Aaaaaa~aaaaaaahhhh!

Zoé: The bastard! His voice can hit a pitch that hypnotically controls anyone who hears it! *After putting in a pair of ear plugs, she leaps down from the rooftops and confronts Jesse* This concerto of crime is over!

Jesse: Ah, the Blonde Wonder herself! I'm sorry, but my work's not quite done yet! *With his other arm wrapped around Anthony, he aims and shoots energy blasts from his conductor’s baton at Zoé, who expertly dodges each time*

You better tow the line you see, because your wills belong to me.

*In sort of a Grease fashion, the heroes and villains rhythmically snap their fingers and stalk toward Zoé*

And now my friends, you have the chance... To show Robin how well you dance!

*The villains and heroes engage in some sort of dance fighting. Zoé is able to fend off against most of them since their punches and kicks aren’t as effective when under Jesse’s influence, but Eri, Mona, and Anthony’s powers catch her off guard for a moment, and she finds herself entangled in one of Anais’ gadgets. Jesse, meanwhile, watches all of this from the rooftops. Seeing that Brecken’s clones have gathered all of the valuables, and he smirks*

Jesse: And now that Robin’s been delayed, your usefulness has passed!

A distraction is what I need, so kick into that blast! *Vocalizes*

Oh, I'm the Music Maestro! I cannot help but boast!

All: He's the Music Maestro, under his spell we're toast!

Jesse: I'm the Music Maestro, I've won the day, now I must fly!

I'm the Music Maestro, and I'm here to settle the score!

*With Anthony still hypnotized, he takes his hand and kisses it*

Jesse: Until next time, my dear.

*With the same theatrics as when he arrived, he disappears into the night, and so do the jewels and cash he had stolen. The villains and heroes soon find themselves no longer under his control. Anthony, startled by his sudden change of location, loses his balance and falls right into Candace’s arms

Parker: … What the hell was that?!

Stuff I Watched This Past Week Or So

Completed- 

FLCL: This show rules, love the characters, plot was interesting and didn't explain much but also, you never needed to explain every last detail when its arguably more fun to speculate on that stuff. 9/10

Karas: The Prophecy- Watch for the action, npt the plot. Characters are meh and the plot goes no where, hints of one but I couldn't really find any overall themes or really interesting things it did. Expected more gore tbh. I heard this was released as two movies in the states and the other one has a better plot, but just watch the fights online, there is barely any story to be told here lol. 5.5/10

Anyone But You: "The Straights Are At It Again: The Movie" . Had some funny bits I guess but really stunk overall, kinda hated it by the end despite thinking the set up had a fun concept behind it. 4/10

Kamen Rider W: One of the best tokusatsu's I have seen, one of the best shows I have seen period. Its themes of memory, vengeance, death and loss are covered perfectly. It has amazing music, fight scenes, characters, it has everything. If you like tokusatsu, detective shows, crime shows, whatever it is, GIVE IT A WATCH! 10/10

The Iron Claw:  A powerful tragedy that was depressing as fuck to watch at points but so interesting to see. A bit goofy acting at points and WOW those wigs, plus it isn't that historically accurate, but I dont think it entirely brings the film down, especially with wrestling being more or less a backdrop to, you know, the tragedy at hand and how shitty Fritz Von Erich is. 7.5/10

Godzilla Minus One- GOSEEITGOSEEITGOSEEIT AAAAAA. Seriously, its amazing and best if you go in blind, take my word for it please. 10/10

Continued-

Futurama (Current Season/Episode S4EP4): Love this show! Where was it when I was in high school! Why did I watch south Park over this??

Ultraman Tiga (Current Episode 39):watching this as I type it, every episode is pretty fun, either being really visually and aesthetically cool or giving us what, to me at least, is interesting to see for a Ultra show (mainly talking about episodes 37 and 38 here, 37 is really trippy and beautiful, while 38's plot is "hey lets create mass panic for research purposes and also just lie to the people we have to protect, because we are the good guys!" and thankfully its not presented as a good thing lol)

Started

Gundam Seed- Watched the first two episodes and, eh, its ok so far. but im interested to see where it goes. its my first time watching a gundum show so hopefully its good

Kamen Rider Faiz- Creepy fantasy sci fi with fun tech modeled after the peak of society, the early 2000s.

[toulouse21]

Things I do since I turned a teenager, that I thought were normal, until I realized I'm probably asexual

(who still feels ROMANTIC attraction)

- I always liked shipping fictional characthers and participating in fandoms, but every time somebody talked about their headcanons to how the characthers behaved on bed I felt really disappointed for some reason

- Whenever I search for a fanfiction to read, I giggle and freak out when the characthers have love dovey moments, but when the cute scenes become hot scenes my reaction is always "OMG I LOVE THEM SOME AAAAAA, wait... Oh. Ugh, it was too good to be true", and when it has too much hot scenes, sometimes I drop the fic and don't regret it

- actually I separate in my head "good fanfics and bad fanfics", and my favourite ones are the ones wich don't mention/don't give details on hot scenes

- whenever Im watching a romance movie/show, I have the time of my life when the couple I like hold hands, hug, kiss, say how much they are in love and all, but when they start to take off clothes, my smile disappears. Every time.

- (ok this one maybe it's because Im stupid), I thought the terms "top" and "bottom" were more about PERSONALITY... Let me explain. In my head, the "top" of the relationship was the more flirty one, the one who first confesses their feelings, who initiates the kisses most of the times, the one who is more confident about their feelings faster, basically. And the "bottom" would be the one who blushes more, the most oblivious, and all that. Seriously, when I found out you guys were talking ONLY about sexual poses, I was SO SO DISAPPOINTED

- I love doing sex jokes with my friends, and when they found out I might be asexual they were like "???? But you talk about it all the time!", but that's the point, I make JOKES about it, because I don't take it seriously

- It still surprises me that people actually WANT and do sex, because for me it's just a big funny joke, and an inconvenient thing you have to do if you want to have a baby

- I HATE when Im just watching a movie (that is not even of romance most of times), and then Im jumpscared with a sex scene, like, why???? Why do you have to do this with me???

- Whenever these jumpscares happen, I always have to fight the urge of throwing up when it's too explicit

- I thought the thing of "oh teenagers watch porn in secret all the time, it's natural" was a meme, because watching porn for me it's equal to torture

- My friend told me one time "maybe you just feel like you would throw up because you're watching straight sex", but I found out lesbians lick each others vagina sometimes and Im traumatized since then.

- Seriously, we PEE in that area, why would I want someone to lick it??? Why??? I know it's different holes and all, BUT MY PISS STILL PASSES THERE WHEN I PASS TOILET PAPER, YOU KNOW THAT RIGHT??

- I also thought masturbation was a big meme.

- One time somebody said to me "you really look like a puritan, but I know what you dream with at night". Wich is ironic, because the only experiences I had with """"""""""erotical dreams"""""" were non consent situations, so they were my worst nightmares

- In general, I just think it's such a disgusting thing lol, a lot of people thought Im weird for not wanting to do it, but I think you guys are weird for wanting it. But at the end, none of us is weird, we're just different, and that's okay

☁️✨️🦩 for the summer qs

☁️ wip you want to write but haven’t started yet

I've been hooked on my adventures with superman so every time I see a new episode, I keep imagining an oc throughout the series. And I always loved the plot of the world killers (that was literally my fave villain in the cw supergirl series) so I drafted a few scenes. Her name's Ginevra (Jimmy would call her 'Ginny' to annoy her lmao) and she was part of a group experimental hybrid world killers left to fend for herself as a youngster on Earth by her own crew of (older) world killers who deemed her too Kyrptonian and not enough 'word killer'. As she grows on Earth, she doesn't have too many memories of her time in the labs but she still knows that she's most definitely not human. It's still a mess but that's the main premise so far.

✨ newest wip

I've been (re)working on a new The Originals OC. I've changed her a couple times but I think this time she's finally got a solid foundation lmao. Her name's Aura, and she's a witch from a secluded coven outside the U.S. Aura and her brother get caught in Marcel's dictatorship while he has Klaus prisoner. Aura possesses special abilities that Marcel uses to get into Klaus' head but ends up prisoner herself. Sometimes later, she helps Klaus escape (with those special abilities of hers) and stays prisoner herself in order to save her brother. Grateful, when Klaus returns to the Quarter with his family the first thing he does is free Aura from her imprisonment. Although Aura is free to go with her brother, the concept of the Hollow and the fact that it's going after little Hope Mikaelson troubles her and so she agrees to stay in the Quarter to help where she can. At the end of the day, the time gap happens again and ironically, Klaus goes in search of Aura again to ask beg for her help to save Hope (now a teenager). Only now, Aura is at the lowest place in her life than she ever was and Klaus has to snap her out of it (help her heal) before time runs out for Hope.

For some reason, I really want this fic to end in tragedy though so I don't know how exactly I want to end it except that I know it'll be season 5 (the show's finale). Either Aura might die, or Klaus, or her brother - I'm not sure yet. The thing I really want to focus in this fic and the two seasons is the theme of grief and healing. I've never done a short series, and much less about the two aforementioned concepts so it's like a new challenge for me and I like it! sorry for rambling with this one

🦩 wip you hate working on but are too far gone to turn back

I wouldn't say that I hate it, but it is trickier to write than I originally planned and it's made me set it back for a while now. It's my doctor who oc Grier. I'm thinking of changing her face claim (her first incarnation) too so there's that?? It's her second fic that's got me in trouble because my dumbass decided to make it one of those "they're time travelling in opposite directions" for a while (like season 5 to the first half of season 7). I like the challenge but it's working out the nitty-gritty stuff that's got me aaaaaa. I love Grier, and I really want to make this fic one of those morally gray 'is he/she wrong for how they reacted" things so that's one thing that keeps me going. I plan on making both the Doctor and Grier royally fuck up and that's a first. I've always tried making my ocs do bad things but for good reasons. In here, the Doctor screws up first and then Grier takes it REALLY to heart and starts screwing with him in painful ways as well. It's chaos after chaos but here I am <3

Send over some summertime writers' asks if you'd like!

MOTHIEEE MOTHHIEEEE MOOOOOTHIEEEEE💃💃💃💃💃I finally have time to write you something for designer dress 👹👹. But now that I’ve Caught up with the reading and my emotions have finally calmed down🥹 I get to show you ALL MY LOVE AND APPRECIATION. I’ve said it one and imma say it again your writing literally is rejuvenating. It’s always fun and intense to read and my god the suspense 👁️👅👁️ yummy yum yum. I’m so happy for canary finally able to get her life back and heal properly.

But what I love the most is canary finally getting HER color. Not something that was given to her, regardless if it was from someone that did/does care about her. And I love the way price also respected that too, the green tie was such a sweet touch! That whole green and blue thing was ironic for me because I’m working on a poem and the concept/ title is ‘when green meets blue’. Pretty funny how that came about here but I know it was meant to be 🥹. For whatever future writings that you will create I will be so excited to read them ! I hope you have a good rest of your day mothie :D

AAAAAA HIIIIIIIII AND THANK YOU SO MUCHHHHH💜

tbh i'm so happy we got to the happy ending because all the angst and suspense was killing me and the little fluff demon in my heart was begging to write something sweet LOL

there was a brief while where i was debating having canary's new color come from her mother as a way to have her feel connected to her mom now that graves and her father are gone and she's allowed to grieve and remember her. but ultimately, i decided that it needed to be something canary chose for herself, something that isn't tied to anyone else in her life, something that is entirely hers. it's a way for her to move forward with a confidence and trust in herself that she's never had before.

i really like the green tie moment because it's such a small thing but it's such a big statement to canary. up until then, she's still unsure about her trust in him and if he really does intend to stay by her side no matter what, but then she sees the tie where he's replaced his signature - a gesture of giving her power over him which is something that would be such a big show of weakness for a man in his position. it means a lot to her, to them both, but it really cements to canary just how serious he is about her.

your poem and the concept sounds absolutely lovely and i'm sure it's going to be amazing!!!!

i hope you have a fantastic weekend and even better week!!! 💜

(for this ask meme)

🍓 ⇢ how did you get into writing fanfiction?

I think it's something I've been doing for a long time, maybe before I fully understood what it was, but my first proper exposure to fanfiction on the internet was via elementary-school me searching the internet for crossovers between different things I liked (mostly ending up on Fanfiction.net and dedicated single-fandom archives.)

My first experiences actually writing fic, from what I remember, involved posting through my friend's account while over at their house because I didn't have an email and couldn't make one myself, haha. (Of course, that account is long deleted now…)

🥤 ⇢ recommend an author or fanfic you love

Aaaaaa oh man I have to think there are so many--

I basically have a big reclist for longer completed works on AO3 here: rainy day longfic &lt;3, so I'll go for a couple of authors off the top of my head:

Seebright (@/lackadrastical): beautiful Hollow Knight fic! I have both of their longfics in my longfic reclist, but they've got some lovely oneshots as well. I love their Ghost and general sibling trio characterization so much. <333

CourierNew: wrote another really good HK longfic, but also I love love love their Deltarune oneshots! Their prose is so good and sharp and eerie and there's a perfect sort of tone to it I don't know quite how to describe…

tls1314 (@/tls332): beautiful Rain World fic!! A time travel fixit that's ongoing, and some quieter oneshots. Also a Hollow Knight oneshot which is probably the only (or one of the only) fics I've ever seen to pull off first person POV with Hornet.

NoelleHolidayStanAccount (TerminalMiraculosis): as the name suggests, really good Noelle-centric Deltarune fic, but also the formatting?? The CSS?? It's so fucking cool and creative to see, and I wish more authors really leaned into the ability to make AO3 do fun stuff like that.

🔪 ⇢ what's the weirdest topic you researched for a writing project?

I can't quite decide, so I'm just gonna leave a list of highlights. Ironically, most of this pertains to fics that have never actually been posted.

half an hour of staff training videos on hospital de-escalation techniques

multiple Youtube searches for "breath of the wild meat pie man" (unsuccessful)

how to harvest spider silk

symptoms of acute radiation poisoning (this is a lie i just like to read this page for fun. don't look at me)

a bunch of stuff about reproductive behaviors of various invertebrates (for, and i cannot stress this enough, worldbuilding purposes)

how big can a slug get (answer: the size of a very drippy football, apparently)

Large Animal Immobilon, some very weird back of the napkin math, and the discovery that 500mL syringes do exist and will haunt my nightmares forevermore (same fic as #1)

☁️ ⇢ what made you choose your username?

My original username, Firedjinn, came from me being really, really into Golden Sun at the time I signed up for an FFN account, haha. I think I originally had some other GS-djinni-themed names in an old word doc somewhere? But this is apparently what stuck, and I've kept it around for continuity.

(Also funny story: the reason this account is called 'firedjinni' is because someone has had the URL firedjinn since 2013 where they have posted one (1) cosplay photo and nothing else since. I assume it's an active user since the name has never expired? Anyway uh yeah.)

(Rubber Chicken with a Keyboard I picked because it just sounded funny, though.)
