[asdpawprint]

I have given exactly 150 boops. I am satisfied with my april fools experience.

[lordpuzzle28]

I've only just woken up how long do I have left to boop?????

[acatpiestuff]

I'm new to tumblr so I want to ask.What is a boop? And why is everyone talking about it

The boops are tumblrs annual April Fools joke, where you can boop anyone who has opted into using the feature. Once you opt in, if you go to someone's blog there is a little round button with a cat paw on it, and you can click that to boop the blog to your hearts content!

Congratulations to all of the wonderful authors and artists who took part in the seventh annual Dean/Cas Pinefest!

This pining season, 39 teams comprised of 41 authors and 25 artists brought us a truly incredible 1,470,624 words of fic, and 141 gorgeous works of art.

If you're interested in seeing more numbers, you can find a full breakdown of this and past year's stats here!

Once again, we've been blown away by the sheer talent and creativity of this fandom, and we're so happy that people are still interested in this event two years after Supernatural wrapped up (for now!)

In case you're wondering: yes, the mods are still fully aboard this ship, and will be back to run an eighth round!

An official announcement for the 2024 Pinefest will come in July, so follow us here on Tumblr & @deancaspinefest on Twitter to make sure you don’t miss out 🌲 

Under the cut, you’ll find links to every masterpost from the 2023 round, and you can also check out the collection on Ao3. Make sure to let the authors and artists know how much you enjoyed their creations with a like, kudos, or best of all, a reblog, rec, or comment!

Guess who forgot to post the happy birthday fic for Chevalier from ao3 to tumblr on the right.

It wasn’t until Chevalier got reminded by Clavis did he remember it was his birthday. He has never cared about his birthday before. It was like any other day, except for Clavis’s futile attempt to take him down - again. It has become an annual event at this point.

“Big brother, take this, ahaha!”

Clavis’s chuckles don’t faze him. Chevalier moves swiftly to the side to dodge Clavis’s attack. Suddenly, Rio, Belle’s attendant and loyal ‘dog’ came with a letter on a platter.

“Your highness, (y/n) asked me to deliver this letter. Please read it or you’ll break her heart~!”

There he goes acting melodramatic for Belle’s sake again. Ever since becoming Belle, (y/n) and Rio has practically been glued at the hips. Chevalier takes the letter without forgetting to dodge Clavis’s continuous attacks.

“Clavis, cut it.” Chevalier orders coldly as he starts ignoring his fool of a brother and strides towards his office. Though he does not want to admit it, he feels a hint, just a small hint of excitement inside his frozen heart, about the content of the letter that he so specially received on his birthday - November 1st.

…

Swinging open the door and closing it with a little excitement, Chevalier quickly gets to his desk to cut open the letter. His eyes scan through the content, he is disappointed. What a waste of time.

“Dear your highness prince Chevalier,

Belle, a.k.a (y/n) have a request to ask of you. Can I borrow some of your romance novels? Your private library offers a much wider assortment of books. If you can, please tell me in person when you have the chance. Thank you, Prince Chevalier. I wish you a warm and sunny day.

Sincerely thanks,

(y/n).”

Chevalier frowns upon reading the letter, yet he quickly realizes the abnormalities presented to him - as a genius would. The spacing between the lines was wider than usual, and the paper smells like lemon. Moreover, the last sentence stood out like a sore thumb. “Warm and sunny” - she must have meant a source of heat. Having a candle next to him, Chevalier lit it up and held the paper over the light. The true content of the letter is finally revealed in pale brown letters written by lemon juice.

“If you can read this, Chevalier, you must have figured out the secret behind the letter, and therefore means you’re interested enough in…me. Were you to wish to find out more, please come to the gazebo in the rose garden. - Belle.”

A low chuckle can be heard coming from him. Belle has gotten quite feisty, hasn’t she? And intelligent as well - being able to pinpoint and play with the genius beast‘s feelings. He is praised to be born once in a thousand years, yet he’s toyed with by a woman no less.

Chevalier crosses his legs and thinks this over for a moment - for a genius like him, there is usually little to no hesitation in every move he makes. Yet this woman - so frail and harmless - is making him hesitant. Yes, she’s right, he’s interested in her. Yes, she’s also right that he’s interested enough to mull over the thought of entertaining her request of coming over to the gazebo. What could await him there? For the first time in his life, he allowed himself to hope: maybe it’s a birthday celebration for him? What foolish thoughts. He has never celebrated birthday and never will.

….

Despite all the rational reasons telling him why he shouldn’t cave in to Belle’s request, he finds himself strolling through the stone path to the rose garden. Excitement bubbles in his heart, as much as he doesn’t want it to. The wind lightly brushes his face, making his blond fringe move. The scent of roses…so familiar - this is where they first talked properly together.

What Chevalier witnesses there surprised him. Belle is in a golden gown, waiting for him in an armchair. Mind you that golden yellow is his favorite color. The woman widens her eyes a little.

“You really came…” she mumbles. What a turn of events. So she was correct - the cold, brutal beast of Rhodolite cared enough to check her out here.

Beside her is a table with a simple birthday cake, some candles, a pot of tea and cups with stacks of books - it’s simple, but they’re all what Chevalier would have enjoyed now.

(y/n) approaches Chevalier with a small, maybe a bit smug too, grin.

“Surprise?” She asks cutely with a victorious smirk splattered on her face. Ahh, damnit, Chevalier thought, she got him good.

“Hmph. You’re quite cunning for a simpleton such as yourself.” Chevalier replies coldly while approaching Belle. “You always know how to get what you want, huh?” He says quietly as he brushes her hair behind her ear.

“What do I want? I only want to celebrate your birthday with you, your highness~” (y/n) coos, certainly amused by how he attempts to hide his contentment. “Nonetheless, I was still surprised when you came here. I was prepared to wait here for a full day, for you can come anytime, prince Chevalier.”

“Hmph, foolish.” His words were followed by a giggle from his precious Belle.

…

Chevalier and (y/n) together did everything that normal people did for their birthday - (y/n) sang (while Chevalier just stays quiet) and blew out the candle in Chevalier’s place (since he didn’t want to do it, saying only children believe in birthday wishes) and he also accepted those books (y/n) prepared as gifts. Being an avid reader himself, he’a quite satisfied.

When Belle’s guard is down, he approaches her like a tiger coming near its prey. He gently hugs her and pulls down the zip of her gown.

“Uhm…what are you doing, prince Chevalier?” (y/n) asks in confusion, and more apparent - embarrassment. They’re outdoors!

“Isn’t it obvious? You lured me here, simpleton. I shall teach you that…a man who is alone with the woman he wants never has pure intentions…” Chevalier replies with a dry chuckle. How could such a cunning woman be so clueless?

…

Chevalier helped Belle with wearing her clothes back on, though he might have to take her panties as hostage.

“Well, well, simpleton. I bet you know where you should be now. If you want to take your lovely panties back…” Chevalier leans in and bites (y/n)’s earlobe, making her turn red, before continuing “you shall do as I say tonight~ after all, did you not want to wish me a happy birthday?”

-End?

man that was fun. anyone else think its weird that tumblr seems to put more effort into the annual April fools joke than into making their site functional or safe

[karin848]

Ok say what you will about Tumblr’s annual April Fools shenanigans.

I’m just pleasantly surprised they made it accessible to mobile users this year

[indigowallbreaker]

Nearly time for my annual "Hiatus from Social Media until April Fool's is over". Let me know what shenanigans Tumblr pulls and if you yourself have any stories ✌️

Or see the on-site navigation tutorial. Or see this blog’s FAQ, or my archive tumblog’s FAQ. Cartoons may contain unmarked spoilers. Cartoons linked from Tumblr 10:00 (Central US time) daily are the previous day’s new update and the posts are pinned to the top of this blog. Cartoons linked from Tumblr 22:00 daily are from the archive and the posts are pinned only during annual summer hiatus of new updates.

This is the one I was talking about here, about just having added a better final panel.

Thanks for reading.

Cozytober 2023 (aka, my 250 Followers Celebration!)

I'm celebrating 250 followers!! I'm so thankful to all of you who have followed me and interacted with my posts and fics, and to thank you all, I'm combining my annual Cozytober Writing Challenge with my Follower Celebration!

All info and Rules are listed below! This writing challenge is open to everyone, and there's a little something to scratch every itch.

Info:

Dates: October 1st - October 31st Masterlist Posting: November 3rd

I decided to do something a little different this year, so all of the prompts for this event are songs! I handpicked this list from my favorites; some are upbeat and fun, others are a little more somber, and many of them evoke that hazy, haunting mood of the autumn season. I encourage you to listen to them, but it's not a requirement! I will have a link to the lyrics of each song that you are free to use at your leasure.

This challenge is open to Fluff, Slice of Life, Angst, Hurt/Comfort, and Smut for all Ikemen Games, including Ikemen Prince, Ikemen Sengoku, Ikemen Vampire, Ikemen Villains, Ikemen Revolution, and Ikemen Genjiden!

Rules:

NO minors or ageless blogs are allowed to post smut for this challenge.

If you are an ageless blog and you post Smut for this challenge, you will get a single DM warning and the 48 hours following to post your age on your blog, or you will be blocked from my blog. If you are a minor and you post smut for this challenge, you will be blocked on sight. I welcome ageless blogs or minors to write Fluff, Slice of Life, Angst, or Hurt/Comfort!

Please label your fic with the suitor(s) you are using and which ikemen game they come from!

Please also label which genre your fic falls under (ie., Fluff, angst, hurt/comfort/slice of life, smut) and any appropriate content warnings

You can use as many or as few lyrics as you want from a song to use as inspiration! You can also combine songs if you're feeling fancy. Just make sure to list the titles of the song(s), as well as the lyric(s) you're using in your fic in the description.

Example:

Prompt - No. 11: "Love Like Ghosts" Lyric - "Yes I know that love is like ghosts, only few have seen it but everybody talks"

Please use the tag #Cozytober Follower Celebration on your fics so that I can find and reblog them! Please also tag my blog @randonauticrap to make it even easier for me to locate them and add them to the Masterlist! If I haven't reblogged your fic by the end date of the challenge, on October 31st 2023, it probably means I have missed it, so please DM me with a link to your fic and I will reblog. Similarly, if you do not see your fic on the Masterlist when it is posted on November 3rd, please DM me with a link to your fic and I will update the masterlist accordingly.

The last date I will add new fics to the Masterlist is November 15th, so please let me know ASAP if your fic isn't there!

𝒊𝒏𝒕𝒓𝒐𝒅𝒖𝒄𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏

hi, i'm chloe! you probably know me or found me from the boop gifs post i made during tumblr's annual april fools' joke. it went incredibly viral and i'm so glad to have been able to provide those of you who missed the event with some cute little kitty paws to keep the trend going! that is, however, not my usual content on this blog, so allow me a moment to introduce what this blog is actually used for.

𝒃𝒍𝒐𝒈 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒏𝒕

this blog is mostly dedicated to taylor swift, but i do sometimes reblog other things as well. content you are likely to find here is as follows:

taylor swift | nature | kitties | art | tumblr heritage posts | my creations | life posts

𝒐𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓 𝒊𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒆𝒔𝒕𝒔

though i won't be talking about it much on this blog (unless inquisitive minds send me asks, that is), i am a multi-faceted human and do enjoy lots of other things besides just taylor swift. a few of my main interests are video games, cartoons, plants, writing, singing, and basically just living life to the fullest. i'm also always down to make new friends, so feel free to say hi and start a conversation whenever! you can also find me on my (less active) personal blog, @chloepnw.

𝒉𝒂𝒗𝒆 𝒂 𝒍𝒐𝒗𝒆𝒍𝒚 𝒅𝒂𝒚!

[tuiccim]

I gotta ask, how do i boop people? I see ur badges and they look so fun!!

Oh! I'm so sorry to have yo tell you. It was Tumblr's annual April Fool's joke for 2024. We only had the boop button for one day.

But because you should have at least one...

Google Translate Writes: Will, the Bog Monster

Hey, look what day it is - it's April Fool's Day! We all know what that means: It's time for the fourth annual Google Translate Writes! For those who haven't read them yet, every year I take a light-hearted oneshot of mine and put it through ten layers of Google Translate, then post the results here on Tumblr (and now on ao3 too!). This year, we're doing Will, the Bog Monster, a quick lil thing I wrote nearly a year ago. Read it at the link - then look below the cut (or on ao3!) to see how this simple story survived being translated into Corsican, Shona, Basque, Hausa, Belarusian, Nepali, Afrikaans, Lao, Sindhi, and Urdu!

Yes, Demon Lord

After five years, Hill thought he would learn about parenting. He left Will in the ward for the long missions, traveled to Will and stayed with the people on the short missions. In a few years from Wensley, when she's more confident, maybe start dating him. Will was now loud and reckless, preferring to play rather than be quiet, and Halt saw no harm in being quiet for a while.

Love is a good thing, all things considered. It is very social, social and social. He was slightly intimidated by Helt and sometimes tried to mimic Helt's expressions, but his quick smile disappeared after a few minutes.

Now the wand is ready for reception. He put Will's things on one seat and his on the other, but that meant he didn't have to pay a lot for two seats. He finishes packing Will's things and tries to figure out how to get Will's horse in—Will has trouble sleeping without him.

He got up and sat on the table. "Father?

"Huh?" He stopped without looking. He tried to be a horse.

- what do you study?

He stopped and looked. - What do I know?

"Children are doctors. I was a child," said Mrs. Cherry from the ward.

A smile tugged at the corner of Halt's mouth. "He said you are alive, don't wake up."

Thinking this, Halt tried to mount the horse. He gave up and decided to wear some clothes though he left the rest.

But he had to remember that Will had repeatedly asked follow-up questions, and then Will had asked him what he was afraid of. - Where did you find me?

Several possible answers flashed through Hilt's mind in a split second. For some unknown reason the solution is "I went into the ground, dug a hole, and found you on the ground."

- Did I go in the water?

He stopped and took off the rest of his shirt. After a while he thought he could get away with it, he couldn't go back now. "Yeah, it took weeks for the stomach odour to go away."

He will have a smile on his face. "I know I have feathers in my hair!"

And trees also came out of the mine. Get Abelard out of his bed, go,” said Halt, lowering the chair.

*

Stop forgetting all about the second day of the conference. He collected a large log, occasionally listening to and watching other first-timers.

Crowley walked down the hall, still looking at them. - Is he waiting?

"Huh?"

"Do you know why Willy spends all day looking at people like this monster?"

"I don't know," Halt said with a knowing look on his face. If Crowley had known the truth, Holt would never have heard the end of it.

Crowley raised an eyebrow. 'Are you sure? No one understands us.'

"Sure," said Holt. He put the figs in the pot and stood up. "Now stop asking awkward questions and help them prepare."

[etes-secrecy-post]

Title: My "Baggy Cloth-Ober" Day 5: 🥜

Hello, October! 🎃🦇 My daily "Baggy Cloth-Ober" continues with our next daily Inktober! 🧢👕🧤👖🧦👟😊

If you haven't seen my previous related post, then please click these: ↓

• Day 1: Maxwell 🐰🖌️ • Day 2: May 🐰👊💥 • Day 3: Sam 🦊⚽ • Day 4: Mikey 🐱🎧

DAY 5: Brown's A/W Clothes 🥜

• Brown the squirrel was an interesting OC, in my opinion. Not only he's shy or timid, and lonely personality (I'm with you, bud), but also he's pure solid "Cartoon Network" fan. He might also fan on other cartoon channels (say Nickelodeon or Disney), but his obsession with "Cartoon Network" was become his recognizable hobby (thanks with his checkered shorts & sweater vest, and his Jake theme winter gloves) ⬛⬜📺😊 Now, what about his clothing? 🤔 You know, as much as I loved to pick his normal clothing (because of his wonderful April Fools prank comic → [CLICK ME!]), his A/W clothing 😊🧢👕🧤👖🧦👟🤗 is the way I picked because he covers everything that he need for the annual cold season, without gifting any wearable(s) or additional stuff from friends/families. And you know what, its a good thing. 🙂👍 Speaking of friends, did I mentioned that Brown had already gifted one of his spare clothes to the Speedster Twins (Spot 🐶🏎️ & Riya🐰🏎️), back in December of 2021 🎄🎁→ [CLICK ME!]? And so far, they're the only ones who owned that spare from Brown, and soon probably someone will. 🙂

Well, that's all for now. More daily "Baggy Cloth-Ober" artworks to come, until the end (of October)! 😊
