love bullet au tag
If you liked any of this concept, go check out Love Bullet by inee! It's one of my favorite new mangas I read last year and this was very fun to think about :) The first comic here is based off two of it's pages. Here's the official summary:
Since the dawn of humanity, those who have never experienced love and meet an untimely end are granted a second chance at life as Cupids by the Goddess of Love. Present day Cupids have traded in their bow and arrow for modern firearms, but their mission remains the same: find suitable lovers for their targets and make them fall in love!

#shen jiu's been at this for 11 whole years and still hasn't gotten enough karma#to be honest he's shit at his job but he kept at it to become human again but as time passes he isn't sure if that's what he truly wants#in that flashback he was going to shoot yqy so he falls in love with the thief in his body so they both move on#failed his first mission to find someone for yqy loveee you qijiu#all those failed shots on binghe are also him#svsss#svsss au#svsss love bullet au#shen qingqiu#shen yuan#shen jiu#comic

it looks and sounds just like you, but,
#That. is not my grandson. who are you. Who are you. What are you. What did you do to him. What did you do. What did you do.#yugioh#yami yugi#yugi mutou#asterisk.#my art <3#eye strain#no but seriously did i just like somehow miss a whole plot point or does sugoroku literally never question wtf is up with yugi??#in his defense it would make sense seeing as yugi definitely takes after him in that regard. huge This Is Fine :) energy#maybe he just knew it would happen and was secretly laughing his ass off the whole time yugi was working on the puzzle. like Lmao Gottem#nonetheless giving yami the Thing treatment because it's what he deserves ^w^#listen. LISTEN. all yami has to work with at first is yugi's memories; yugi's emotions; yugi's thoughts and interests and habits and body#yami himself doesn't seem to realize for a while that he's Not Yugi.#so anyway! an ominous spirit possesses your kid and has the ability to inflict hallucinations and curses and what have you.#how do you know that's still him? that he's still in there? that this being hasn't outright erased him and replaced him in his entirety?#like the ship of theseus except mind body and soul?#how do you know that this Thing isn't just bending your perception of reality? to convince you that everything is fine and normal?#maybe it doesn't know any better. maybe it feels guilty but stubbornly hides it because that's what He would do and He is all it knows.#would you still love ''him''? care for it as you would your son because all you see when you look at it is your pride and joy; usurped?#idk i just think there could have been More to it. in general. if you catch my drift#stream of consciousness lookin ass tags down here. as you can see i am badly afflicted with The Character(s)

jayvik shippers PLEASE be normal about Mel & Sky challenge, part 2, difficulty rating: (impossible)
#why do so many of you seem to not understand the concept of loving more than one person at a time#I like jayvik but I hate to see so many people dismiss & deride two black female characters for the sake of their beloved white boys more#the whole 'mel is just manipulating jace!!1!' shtick was already outdated by the end of season 1 let alone now.#if you STILL think that mel is just cynically using him then it's obvious that you haven't been paying any actual attention to the show.#& when it comes to Sky it's true that Viktor's primary feeling towards her atm is guilt. & reasonably so.#but I think claiming that he had zero actual affection for her outside that guilt is a bit much & really doesn't do any favors for viktor#personally I think season 1 made it abundantly clear that the only real obstacle to jayvik was JAYCE HIMSELF.#season 2 episode 2 is basically the first time that hasn't been true so far#arcane#jayvik#mel medarda#sky young#fandom bs#shipping bs

i always forget that eddie never really talks about buck with anyone in the show, its just such a stark contrast to how buck is always seen talking about eddie to others or bringing up eddie’s Things in front of the 118 or whatever. hopefully we will start seeing eddie talk about buck to strangers in texas (kinda like he did with marjan) :) seems like a good segue into an eventual feelings realization
right now im of the opinion (and kinda what i tried to convey in my last answer) that like. NOT showing us that is starting to have weight to it. because we have gotten so many episodes of Buck's feelings ABOUT Eddie in the last two seasons. and specifically Buck HIDING feelings from Eddie (even something as small as the way Buck's face falls--out of Eddie's line of sight--in 8x01 and 8x08). i think the last time we got similar shots from eddie was in 6b during buck's recovery arc.
and like obviously one reason is that buck and eddie are very different people. eddie keeps things, especially things that matter to him, close to the chest. buck really doesn't. another reason is that buck has an outlet or two to talk about eddie to other people (maddie is a recurring one, tommy in 704 was another, chim even was one way back in s2). Eddie...doesn't have that. who does he usually go to first with things? Buck. occasionally Bobby (sometimes only after Buck has suggested it).
but regardless of the practical reasons for it, the unevenness of this POV issue is starting to feel interesting to me. like now the possibility of getting a glimpse of how eddie thinks about/talks about Buck to other people who AREN'T buck could be revealing in a fun way.
and like to be clear what i am talking about is Eddie's PERCEPTION of his feelings. because I think the show has made Eddie's feelings about Buck pretty clear over the last 7 seasons. we just don't know if HE is like, fully aware/able to acknowledge how deep his feelings go. but the show has been very clear since at least s3 about how deep those feelings are.
#sibyl answers#anon#idk if this is making sense#it almost feels like Eddie hasn't *had* to think about his feelings for buck.#whereas buck has had to confront his feelings about Eddie like 5 times in the past 2 seasons#to eddie everything is solid. buck is his rock. he's not going to question it and he doesn't have to think about it#even now with him leaving he's so focused on christopher that he just like has to keep assuming that buck is there#solid as always.#and the really fun thing is that buck knows that. and that's why he's been fighting so hard to keep eddie from seeing how torn up he is#but like eddie has not been looking at anything other than what he needs to do#even while leaving him he's basically telling himself like#this doesnt change a thing. we're still just a phonecall away. we're gonna be as solid as ever#like he's not really letting himself go down the whole road of What Does Buck Mean To Me and the associated pain of knowing the answer#he cant really afford that right now. but there are little hints that this is not something he can think about/talk about#so it will be interesting to see if something DOES force the question of What Does Buck Mean To Me

half of the asks neil gaiman gets are like "Dear Mr. Gaiman, I have loved your work since I was a child and was wondering if you could elaborate on a particular metaphor you use in Chapter Six of Good Omens?" and the other half are like "SUP babygirl when do i get to see crowley and aziraphale explore each other's bodies xoxo" and neil gaiman responds to both. with the same level of decorum. truly, an icon.
#neil gaiman#that's a strength i don't posess#and he just does it again and again#what a king#despite all the evidence i'm still waiting for the big hoax where it actually hasn't been him this whole time#dunno why

thinking abt an au where siffrin joins the party first before mirabelle gets to jouvente...
#thinking abt how it might change their dynamic as the only two people in the party for the time being#like in canon they're arguably the least close out of the whole group. like mira saw sif as cool n mysterious so she tried to respect his#privacy (= didn't interact w him that much). but when it's just the two of them they'd have to make conversation a bit#i can kinda imagine that they'd get a little closer here n mira would realize that sif isn't that cool(tm) n they're actually very similar#and they'd get closer in that way. but at the same time mirabelle hasn't been rejected by the defenders yet so she may still think they'll#help her. thus she wouldn't think of asking sif to join her yet. and it could also go that they'd just travel together in awkward silence#without talking that much. bc sif didn't start leaning into puns yet until after isa laughed at one of them. n mira pretends like she doesnt#find puns funny so it wouldn't egg sif on quite as much -> he might not really come out of their shell w just mira around#mmmm....... idk it just sounds cool but idk if it'd actually work. oh well#isat#siffrin isat#mirabelle isat#my ramblings

starting yet Another relisten of dames and dragons presented by legendlark, my beloved.
i've just finished the first arc and i think there's something so special about the pairs who fall off the island together and how it kind of sets the scene for those relationships for the rest of the campaign, in my mind.
#like... laika and maeri. i can't say anything about them that hasn't already been said better#it's like are they in love.. maybe#(yes)#but regardless it's laika's unwavering loyalty for her throughout her whole time in the party and then even later when she comes back#like. they held each other while they fell from the sky 🥺#it makes me crazy#but it's really fran and corbin for me#idk they are so siblingly to me#like they hate each other they are so SHUT UP CORBIN but they're everything to each other#it rips me apart every time i listen to the end of the weeping god and fran disappears and he's digging through the rubble#and it's like sure. laika left. maeri also disappeared#slake is still there. not for nothing. but they're not estran#slake is trying to tell corbin but he's just. she has to be here#he can't lose fran#fran is the only person left who has been through EVERYTHING with him#they held each other while they fell from the sky 🥺#i'm just obsessed with those two relationships in particular and them falling from estra like that makes me crazy#it's like. you can't have laika without maeri. for fran and corbin. you can't have one without the other#and i don't mean to ignore slake bits just that they're not here yet#i love slake and maeri's relationship A Lot too but it is different from the estran's relationships to each other in my mind#I LOVE LEGENDLARK#PODCAST OF ALL TIME#dames and dragons#legendlark#mine

Fear, faith, friendship: Inside F1’s most precious relationship
Tom Stallard, Daniel's race engineer at McLaren, speaks out about his collaboration with Daniel in BBC's article about the relationship between drivers and race engineers.
#'Daniel is the car ok?'#at that time that felt like the culmination of the whole mind game mclaren (or rather zak brown) had been playing with daniel#and you could see how that one moment sort of precipitated daniel's whole downfall and him totally losing confidence in the team#but i guess tom stallard hasn't been able to forget about that one moment too and#he knows how much damage that one comment did for him to still be bringing this up nearly 2 years later#so i guess i'll at least stop badmouthing him for the future 😌#also important to include the quote on how their relationship is still amiable and him attributing it to Daniel's character#because people on the internet think Daniel is the devil incarnate#daniel ricciardo#text

speaking of the scum villain fandom and top/bottom. this wasn't discourse at all just personal preference but it hurt my heart so bad that the few times i wanted to try out jiuyuan/shencest/scumcum whatever, it was almost always sj topping... when the only way i like it is the other way around :(
#sj is a stone bottom to me but also i just really like MEAN bottoms and lazy simp tops#that fic where sj is teaching sy to fuck his pussy while edging him the whole time.... delectable#i do actually think they're more 'they were both bottoms' but like. in a ship where there's only two of them and there's penetration.#someone has to take one for the team. and shen jiu is FAR more stubborn#also god that post about how sy would have cbat on his 'sex playlist' so he could time his thrusts to it while fucking sj#hasn't sj been punished enough? i ask you#svsss

my mum is a nurse who works in aged care and she has a resident with hiv and she is the only person there he likes because it sounds like she's the only person who treats him like a human fucking being.
#these are NURSES who refuse to do basic aspects of their job like wound care because their patient has a disease. bitch what???????#you can't get hiv from treating wounds. they're not even open wounds. what the fuck.#my mother is a better woman than me. i would've very loudly told that nurse that as long as she's not fucking him she'll be fine.#like don't drink his blood and you're golden.#my mother has to fucking take his used trays out and change his bedsheets which is not even remotely a part of her job#because the people whose job it actually is refuse to do it!!!!#he hasn't had a proper shower the whole time he's been there because the primary care bitches won't shower him. i'm so fucking angry.#i'm trying to convince her to complain to the aged care commission or the union or SOMETHING because this is insane

Raven Branwen
Race: Raven Human
Nationality: Between Kingdoms, Anima
Ethnicity: Mistrali
Weapon: Omen
Gender: Woman
Sexuality: Bisexual
Starting Age: 35
Aura Color: Red
Handedness: Right
Complexion: Pale white
Eye color: Red
Semblance: Kindred Link (A highly unconventional Transportation semblance that creates wormholes using the users Aura shield as a conduit. It can only create portals next to people the user has formed an unbreakable emotional bond with.)
Occupation: Branwen Bandit Chief, Spring Maiden
The older twin of the Branwen siblings, Raven was the daughter of the current chief, but this did not make her heiress. She, or her brother would have to earn that honor be becoming the strongest members of the tribe. She completed all the rituals; Be abandoned and Find Your Way Back to the Tribe; Taste the Spilled Blood of Humans just like Grimm; Steal the Breath of an Entire Village; Slay The Nevermore and Become The Nevermore. Then, the last task was given to Raven and Qrow, a new task... enter a huntsmen school to learn how to kill huntsmen. She and her brother did this, but then something completely unexpected happened. Raven fell in love. Not just with her teammates, not just with the world outside her tribe, but with her true soulmate who showed her that there was more to the world than simple strength... and then Raven "woke" up. Her life was a lie, created by a man that was not a man. She had to escape her cage, return to the wild, return to her flock. She couldn't bring her friends, they wouldn't understand. She couldn't bring her daughter, she needed to complete her trials, find her own way back to the clan. She could not bring Qrow back because he was weak and a fool. I had no choice, and I made the right decision Yang.
Take the lives of those you need...
#working overtime to flesh out the Branwen tribe#also giving Raven more Pyrrha parallels#I think Raven truly becoming better only to fall back into her old ways is what works best for her#and the reason Raven fell backwards was because of Ozpin lol#rwde#rwby fix it fic#rwby rewrite#rwby au#raven branwen#unrelated but I think making Russel a member of the Branwen tribe would be really funny#Qrow wouldn't recognize him because he hasn't been to the tribe in years#Yang was beating up someone from the tribe the whole time she was at Beacon lol#rwby 14

This might be silly but I've been trying to find this one person who said in a tag I saw something about a McLennon Enchanted AU because I have a lot of thoughts about it 👀
#namely I'm contemplating the animated fairytale world paul and presumably princess linda would be from#and to what extent he would be cartoon paul vs real paul before being banished to london#i imagine something that's kind of a riff on yellow submarine#where the blue meanie goes after paul because him marrying linda somehow threatens his plans to take over pepperland#but maybe paul also still lives with jim and mike and their whole quirky family and they come to rescue him#and being in the real world brings out all the hard complexities in their relationships that they have to face for the first time#also I'm thinking this takes place while john is divorcing cynthia and hasn't yet married yoko and he's got george and ringo and everyone#and paul encourages him to repair his relationship with julian and yoko has the cute ending with linda because why not#then i could also start on another tangent about what the band history might've been like without paul but let's not get carried away#(lennison drama anyone?)#the beatles#mclennon#enchanted

Okay so Fitz is my favorite character, but I actually don't have strong opinions about The Devil Complex
#leo fitz#agents of shield#aos#maybe it's cuz i didn't watch it when the show was on...i only saw it for the first time like a month ago#but apparently this episode was a hugely divisive fandom-splitting event#which is hilarious to me because that would imply the fandom was somehow unified before#and the aos fandom hasn't been unified on anything since like season one lmao#anyway fitz is still my favorite character but i also feel bad for what daisy went through in 5x14 but i also can't fully blame fitz#because it's unclear exactly how much he was in control of his actions#it's nuanced is the point#and also the whole thing became moot after the end of season five#because sixth season fitz was from a split timeline where he never did any of that stuff#it would have been nice to see him and daisy talk about it at some point in season six though#i guess that's what fanfiction is for

sometimes stories present a character and want you to think they're a good guy with asshole tendencies when really they're an asshole with good guy tendencies
go ahead and ignore the tags they don't say anything important
#this is mainly about hercule/mr satan from dragon ball z#the guy who takes credit for beating cell and befriends buu despite trying to kill him the whole time#and he does help save the world from kid buu but he does so under false pretenses#he may be strong among normal people but he's also a liar and a con. i don't hate him for being weak and overconfident-#i hate him for being a liar and a coward#this also somewhat applies to bulma (at least in dbzk (i don't remember her being like this in the manga))#because she scolds gohan like he's an adult when he's like 5#wonders if she should have gotten with goku when she met him when he was like 11 (she did this in the manga too though)#and attempts to abandon piccolo on namek when he'd been on their side since raditz landed#i also just don't like her as a character because she and chi-chi are misogynistic caricatures#the only decent female character that comes to mind is videl and she hasn't shown up yet in the anime (i've only read the manga)#android 18 doesn't count because she barely has a personality in the manga other than she's fashion conscious and likes krillin#fire.txt

Honestly, if I thought it might actually be possible to just... exorcise the Amy brainrot from my head and move on with my life, fic ideas unwritten, fics unread and Worm unfinished, I'm tempted to.
Not because of the brainrot itself, but because of how fucking annoyed thinking about Ward and all the Ward-era WoG shit Wildbow pulled gets me.
#Grumping#Anti-Wildbow#I just-#This guy writes this character and then proceeds with Ward and all the Ward WoG to undo literally everything that makes her interesting or#even like a narratively meaningful part of Worm#If that really was his intent the whole time than HOLY SHIT even just going off Interludes 2 and 3 he failed so fucking hard at it given hi#WoGs about Interlude 3#and like if he's that fucking bad of a writer than wtf?#or he genuinely did change his mind or overcompensate because people 'weren't getting it' and that's just even#more bullshit#and like - getting pissy at Creators for this sort of shit is common in fandom and hardly new for me but it's all still so burningly active#and I don't need this sort of negativity in my life#but I do actually enjoy a lot of the worm fics I'm reading and the fics I'm dreaming up and most days I don't really think about this shit#that much and writing fics and people reading fics I write does in fact spark joy and will give me the sort of outlet to get past all this#crap#speaking from experience#but I have to actually get there#and then the smug assholes of the fandom who get really fucking snotty about 'canon' and 'fanon' and hang off Wildbow's every word like he'#a fucking prophet as if he hasn't been wrong and inconsistent in his own WoG before#and like the worst part is he is a good writer and a compelling writer but he's quite clearly a shitty person as far as I can tell like#maybe person to person he's fine but sweet fucking jesus#I need to stop letting him and stupid asshole BNFs live rent free in my head#Kylia Writes a Novel In the Tags#A fucking trilogy even#fml
