#ANYWAYS how are you ? )

6, 7 and 8

ASK GAME

6- which ship fans are the most annoying?

I don't really have ships I hate (excluding proships, they can burn in hell/srs) but i do hate how the fandom treats them. I like Jawbreaker for example, not my top Kev ship but it's cute, especially in some fanart. But multiple people treat it horribly because they look too far apart in age. Yet there isn't enough focus on the people shipping siblings or other family members while one of them is a child? (Not being specific for obvious reasons. It grosses me out as well.)

7- what character did you begin to hate not because of canon but because how how the fandom acts about them?

I used to hate Bob because of how many people sexualized him. He's such an interesting character overall and the first cannibal character I've seen in media. I thought he was so interesting but I can't find much of anything without it sexualizing him. But I have begun to ignore that and make my own things, just ignoring all that for now. (I don't mind the dating sim, that's different in the sense it isn't just fan service and is story driven. I don't know how to explain it.)

8- common fandom opinion that everyone is wrong about

I don't know how common this is but I see it often so I'll say it, so many people bash on Skid and Pump for being 'annoying brats' to put it nicely. They're eight. Get over it. That's how eight year olds act. Yes the stuff they do is morally wrong, I'm not saying that it's not, but I'm also saying they don't understand what they're doing. Same with people saying Susie is too harsh on Pump. She isn't, she acts like a normal older sister. This is coming from an older sister of an annoying younger brother, that's just how it is. If anything she tolerates him more than actual older sisters, in Deadly Smiles when Pump kept coming up with things she couldn't argue with (when she tried to get him in trouble) she ended up just leaving without causing a bigger fight. I could go in depth about how people act about Hatzgang too, but this post is long enough. If you want me to I will.

everyone thinks the hand flappy stim is so cute until it's someone's stress response and they get stuck doing it for like ten minutes straight and feel like they'll explode if they stop and it fucking hurts and anyway we should stop romanticizing neurodivergency instead of treating it and neurodivergent people with actual respect

IN THE TIME OF NEED YOU RETURN (artfight just ended literally 25 minutes ago) djdjsk how was the line for the milk? Did you get gum on your way out of the store? Godspeed on your wips, but please don't put too much pressure on yourself! I'm not patient (patience?) but I'll happily wait an extra year for your writing :>

-Lucky

AY LUCKY HOW ARE YOU? Glad to see you’re still alive, much kisses and hugs. I didn’t even mean to post my return but I felt a calling today, I could sense the bat signal in the air.

The line was horrible. I’m pretty sure the milk has spoiled in my absence so I’ll probably have to go back and get some more. I unfortunately did not get any gum but this trip I will. What kind of gum do you prefer? I grew up on juicy fruit but I’ve started to like 5 gum. Mostly because of that twitter video of someone calling it gum 5 feels (I literally had to Google the brand name because gum 5 feels is seared into my memory).

I swear to god, I’m gonna post something this month. I’ve put a gun to my head. If you give me an inch, I’m gonna take a mile and you’ll never see me in 2 years.

[burnthelios]

If there is anything that became a pain after getting the cane, it was simply walking to the other side of the city. Cars were faster, yes but he needed to stretch his legs for his chores. Off duty and -

"Sorry."

He nearly bumped into someone. how embarrassing. the streets weren't that crowded but ...

sometimes he loses his footing.

[scribefindegil]

being a writer leads to a genuinely helpful but also very stupid kind of mindfulness where you'll be having a sobbing breakdown or the worst anxiety attack of your life and think "okay, I really need to pay attention to how this feels. so I can incorporate it into my fanfiction."

"(blank) hates laios!" WRONG WRONG WRONG. SHUT THE FUCK UP

shuro is just as awkward as laios and it is made So clear he considers him a friend and likes him. he defends him when the canaries start talking shit and actively readies himself to physically fight them so they dont get to him.

namari also likes laios. she respects him as a leader and also defends him and readies to fight the canaries.

ive not actually seen anyone claim izutsumi hates laios, but a lot of ppl Are weird abt them. izutsumi and laios' relationship was rocky at the beginning. he struggled to figure out how to interact with her. but by the end, she actively seeks him out to talk with during the lead up to the feast. she hides behind him when falin wakes up. she has already realized shecan do what she wants and does not need to stick around, yet she does. she sleeps near him on the windowsill, waiting with him and marcille for falin to wake up. she has accepted him as part of her life and wants to keep him in it.

marcille does not hate laios. let me say this again.

Marcille Donato Does Not Hate Laios Touden.

marcille Loves him. in a platonic, familial sense. laios returns this just as readily. she yells at him. she whacks him. she tells him whats on her mind. she uses healing magic to ease his pain during the parasite fiasco. she reattaches his leg when he loses it. she teaches him magic. she lays her head on his corpse and cries before reviving him. she launches herself at him two times, when the canaries interrogate them and when he talks her down in the tower. he is a comforting presence to her. she trusts him, she cares about him, she worries about him, she imagines him as a big fluffy dog that loves and protects her. laios is her rock when falin is taken from them time and time again. and she tries to be his as well. she whole-heartedly, unconditionally, loves and trusts laios.

chilchuck does not hate laios. laios pays him his rates, no questions asked. laios trusts and respects chilchuck's job as a lockpick. laios does not see him as a child (at least, i cant think of an instance where he does so). chilchuck states, outright, he sees him as a friend and doesnt want to see him hurt. he actively worries about him as the falin situation gets worse. chilchuck respects laios. he shows almost 0 hesitation in helping get falin back, nor eating her by the end. he does not think of leaving him once, until he realizes he could lose him. chilchuck is cowardly with emotions and prefers to bottle things, so his first instinct was to bolt. he was angry because he was scared of watching someone he cares about destroy himself. laios is his Friend.

and holy shit. holy Fucking shit. kabru DOES NOT hate laios. kabru has the rockiest start known to man with him, and he Still helps him by occupying the canaries. he warns him about them. he hides the black magic from them just as shuro does. his whole Thing is trusting laios despite himself. kabru has his own baggage regarding other people, just like laios, yet he tries so hard to believe and trust this man. he Wants to. kabru is not very hopeful, but laios makes him Want to be. he states like 3 times he wants to be close to him and sees him as a friend. he stays through the entire feast!! the man who hates monsters, whose biggest trigger is monsters, actively, consciously, Willingly stayed through the entire monster meat feast. all to help his friend get his sister back. he could've left!! the feast was like an entire week!! yet he was there for every single day. he was one of the closest people to the door when falin awoke!! after reuniting with her brother, her friends, the people who knew her the most (plus senshi and izutsumi), the first person she greets is kabru!! he wants to be close to laios, he likes laios, laios is his friend and he cares for him, he wants to meet his sister!!! kabru fucking stays on the island with him as one of his closest, most trusted advisors when he becomes king!!!!! he wants to help him succeed!!!! he wants him to be happy!!!! laios is his friend!!!!!!!!

im just. people like laios!! laios is a nice guy! he is friendly and cares about people! he is weird, he doesn't understand most social cues, he oversteps boundaries, but they stay beside him, because they like him and he is their friend. he is their friend!!!!! friendship is not all sunshine and rainbows, relationships in general are not sunshine and rainbows. you will upset people, people will upset you, you will get into arguments, things will happen, but at the end of the day, the people close to you like you! they love you! they care for you! they want to work it out and get through it because they love you, but they will feel those emotions first! human relationships are complex and messy and life is complicated. even shows for toddlers know this.

if you truly believe any of these characters hate laios you are worse than a toddler. watch some fucking oobi or something. god. fuck.

take this

thanks

(✿◕‿◕) die (ꈍ ꒳ ꈍ✿)

[faggotisaacfloofs]

the person who helped today when I fell out of my wheelchair actually did a really great job, so I want to share in case other people wonder what to do. [Note: this is not universal, this is merely a suggestion from one person, every wheelchair user's needs are different! I am a person who uses a manual chair usually pushed by someone else who is also disabled.]

Scenario: you see someone in a wheelchair fall out of their chair, and you have the ability to help.

1. Approach and ask "are you okay?"*

2. Next question if they say no, are vague, or open to continuing conversation** is, "is there anything I can do to help?" Or "what can I do?"

If they say no to help, then that's the end, just leave and go do whatever you were doing!

If they ask for help or say they are mildly injured, ask "what would you like me to do?" And wait for an answer before doing anything! If they seem dazed or confused, they might have hit their head or had another medical event*, or they might just be like that due to regular disability. Be patient.

Do not touch the person unless they say to, or they are like, unconcious in the middle of the road, ya know?? Wheelchair users usually have conditions that mean being handled improperly can severely injure us, you could cause much more damage than the fall.

Some things they might need you to do:

Bring their wheelchair closer (mine went about 5 feet away after it dumped me)

engage the brakes of the wheelchair

hold wheelchair steady if it's an unsteady surface (mud, hill, ramp, wet, etc)

offer an arm for them to hold onto to get up (them grabbing you, not you grabbing them) or move another solid item closer for them to use (i.e. a chair) [only do this if you physically have the ability to!]

If the terrain is rough (i.e. a parking lot), they *might* ask you to push their chair to a more stable area once they are back in their chair

nothing

Something else

Do what they ask, NOT what you think would be helpful. If for some reason you have to do something (i.e. you can't stop oncoming traffic and need to get them out) ASAP, tell them what you plan to do

Keep in mind they might also be D/deaf, have a communication disability, be stunned after the fall, have a head injury, not trust other people, etc. Be patient and treat them as a person with autonomy and agency! They might need to just sit on the ground for a few minutes to recover before trying to get back in their chair. They might want everyone to leave them alone. They might ask you to call someone specific. Their chair might have broken and that can be extremely distressing. All of this is like if your legs spontaneously stop working when you're out and about!

A lot of wheelchair users (NOT ALL) have ways to get into their chair on their own once the chair is close enough and brakes engaged (but it's hard from the ground!). Here's what brakes look like on a lot of manual wheelchairs, in case they ask you to lock the brakes. They're levers on each side and pushing the lever pushes a bar against the wheel to hold it still.

ID: A manual wheelchair with the brake levels circled in red and labeled "user brake levers"

*There is also the possibility of course that a person fell out of their chair due to a seizure or other medical event, so that is why it is important to ask if they are okay. If you saw them hit their head, tell them so. If they had a medical event, follow protocol for that, I'm not gonna get into it here (thought I could).

**sometimes a person will be clear after the first question i.e. "I'm all good thanks" clearly means they do not need you to ask another question, you can just leave them alone. Keep walking and don't stare. A lot of the time people will be a bit banged up but be totally fine and able to manage on their own.

TLDR: Ask the wheelchair user if they're okay, then what they need, and then do exactly that, including leaving them alone. Thanks!
