Confession time, I tried reading Gideon the Ninth a couple years ago and it made NO sense I was so confused and either hated all the characters or, more likely, couldn't keep track of who was who I was so fucking confused the entire time. What happened? Got no fucking idea. I think maybe there was character named Gideon? It might have been in space? Bones? Unclear. I hated the experience. I have never been so confused or unable to comprehend what was going on while reading. I think an advanced medical textbook in french would make more sense.
And like I see book reviewers and stuff talking about The Locked Tomb series now and I was like "I know it's a bit cerebral and confusing, but it seems like that is part of the point and people still liked it like why didn't I? I sometimes like weighty stories?? How come I hated it so viscerally?" And I looked back at the Libby history to figure out when I read it and like, guys, I read Gideon the Ninth in January of 2021 after having been in a months and months long reading slump since May that I had only broken in December with Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe; then I read the ENTIRITY of the ACOTAR series that was out at the time (4 books and according to my history i read one of them in 2 days dear lord this was before the hype and i was IN it); reread of Avalon High; and finally started January with Red, White, and Royal Blue.
And i followed my romance and middle grade easy reading experiences that were gently getting me back into reading with fucking Gideon the Ninth. No fucking shit I was confused I was not genre savvy at that moment. I was like in basic predictable trope land.
Anyway I saved myself from a reading slump because apparently I just fucking reread Demon King series and started it's sequel. Which I was slowly able to work my way back up to reading from there.
I guess I should try it again, but the memories of it are so painful. I've never felt so stupid 😅 I was like do I have comprehension skills at all? Do I even speak English? I remember feeling embarrassed listening to the audiobook alone in my car because I had no idea what the fuck was happening 😐
#gideon the ninth#i feel bad tagging it because I not being nice to the book but i mean the fans no ill will#i am simply confused#reading#thank you demon king for saving me from my slump#seven realms#will always have my heart#and i can't believe i read acotar almost 4 years ago!!#everyone is talking about it#a bunch of coworkers are reading it#and im like uhhh#yeah it helped me get back into reading but i wouldn't reread i didn't even buy it!!#library only#and i haven't read a single book thats come out since that fever read in dec 2020#the rest of the series? i dont know her

how are there more people who ship Jikka with Shugen than with Gantetsusai
like no judgment, ship and let ship (my only issue with it is that my preferred ship has zero fanworks) but like. I'm confused
#maybe I've just been spoiled for old man yaoi by the one piece fandom#also holy shit the top ship for this fandom on ao3 is yuri and the second is incest. nature is healing#hell's paradise#quoth nsd#tamiya gantetsusai#yamada asaemon jikka#putting the spoilers in the tags so if ur concerned stop reading now#again zero judgment but how is 'I want your job so I'm trying to kill you but I do not give a shit abt you' x 'we're coworkers I guess'#more popular than 'ooh hi there big guy you are so my type' x 'sHUT UP AND PUT YOUR CLOTHES BACK ON'#I AM SIMPLY CONFUSED#if nothing else I thought age gaps were unfashionable rn

can i just say. and this is probably a niche hill to die on. that i am so gobsmacked every time someone vaguely hints at the idea that jotaro doesn't care meaningfully for the other crusaders, usually particularly kakyoin and joseph, when those two actually tend to be the ones he reacts to being hurt the hardest
like he cares for his loved ones!!!! that literally plays into his character motives in every single part he shows up in!!! stop lying to me!!!!!!!
#me.txt#jjba#i'm going to ramble in tags actually. excuse me#ok. rereading sdc and so confused at the general perception of jotaro and his friends/family. he's not NEARLY as flat or as dickish#i understand that the anime (particularly the dub) tends to slander him but even then he still clearly cares for them! i'm confused#i also understand that a lot of people dig against jotaro and kakyoin as a dynamic because 'they're popular' and that generally disliking#popular things across media is a thing that i've seen consistently everywhere but the discredit to them simply as a DUO and not even as a#pairing is so..... odd..... like they're considered to be a duo that clicks for a reason. i enjoyed them even before i got into the fandom#every time i see someone say jotaro is overrated/dull i take a shot and assume they're an anime-only or only read the manga like once btw#joseph and jotaro also have a neat dynamic and they obviously both love and care for each other. like they're not going to go around loudly#or anything but literally the entirety of the lovers and the prelude to the dio fight IS jotaro being worked up over joseph getting hurt#equally i don't know if it translates to the anime as much but joseph is VERY complimentary when it comes to jotaro. like he sings his#praises so often and reminds everyone that he's his grandson so frequently (d'arby the gamer is a good example of this). either way it's so#peculiar....... there's not enough avdol and jotaro content btw (also in canon) because jotaro obviously looks up to him and avdol jokes#around with him on the occasion they interact after their intro which doesn't start very well. it's very cute#i do think an important thing to note about jotaro's character is how he acts AFTER his intro because he's so drastically different. early#jotaro and later jotaro aren't the same character and i do not mean this in a character development way. excluding the jail incident he's#completely different and probably shouldn't really be taken into account (especially considering the amount of slapstick in araki's intros)#and i think that's really???? what people center on for his character? Which sucks balls bad!#anyways. i could ramble more about this if asked i have so much to say but sigh. jotaro cares so much for his friends and family he's not a#flat fully cold asshole character regardless of whether you watch the anime or ova or read the manga. you just have poor media literacy#i wouldn't recommend watching solely the anime for his character though. the dub also changes a lot so it's... questionable#i love the anime and it's still important for him though. also adds neat stuff. i need to stop myself. i have many thoughts on the matter#jotaro kujo#joseph joestar#noriaki kakyoin#adding in case anyone sees: i am not saying that he is perfect about this. in fact he is very ass about it with jolyne and holly and that's#very important. he also is in fact an asshole sometimes. NOT as much as you guys are making him though!#please don't get me started on how much of a dick etc people make kakyoin to veer away from the 'woobified' characterizations of him#in fact i think that's bad if not worse because it CLAIMS to be in character. hes a prim asshole at times but not that angry or dishevelled

When the only person who might understand what happened- understand. Not sympathize or empathize or comfort you but understand what happened, isn't there anymore. Or: 'A Man Made Me Do Something I Didn't Want To', for when you can't talk about it or look it in the eye [Patreon | Commissions]
#Tuvok#Kes#comix#idk how to tag this bc of the allusion#st voy#star trek voyager#bea art tag#comix page#star trek#this is not a one to one allegory nor is it meant to be - I am specifically focusing in on the loss of bodily autonomy that occurs when#Kes and Tuvok have their bodies taken over purposefully by men for various reasons which all boil to power. 'Because I could' and Because#they thought Kes or Tuvok wouldn't be able to stop them from doing so. Because they thought they had the power to do so so why wouldn't#they? But again this is not one to one - I interpret and will continue to interpret these instances in many different ways#But something that sticks with me in canon is how 'impervious' Tuvok is made - There is that scene at the end of Warlord which#shows that Kes is affected by what just happened to her - she's confused and hurt and doesn't know what to DO now that the in-the-moment#fight is over and it's time to just keep living and Tuvok comforts her but when he will go on to be taken over again and again and again#there will be no one to comfort him - no one HE can go to - and the narrative doesn't say that there should be. Even when he's#taken over by the BORG (an experience which had a lasting traumatic impact on characters like Seven or Picard - granted they were connected#for a lot longer) this is only mentioned offhandedly. One wonders why it occured at all. There's also how the other two main Vulcans#T'Pol and Spock - when they are forced to act emotionally or are in situations that affect their emotional equilibrium there is a big deal#made about it and they are hurt and ashamed and given some degree of care and comfort by those around them but when Tuvok#is forced into similar situations it is simply assumed he'll get over it - not even just by the other characters but the narrative itself#takes it for granted Ex: 'Workforce' where he forgets ALL his Vulcan training or 'Meld' where Suder's influence#unintentionally makes him lose it and try to kill him...THOUGH I think Suder hugging an unconscious Tuvok is perhaps the closest we get to#someone comforting Tuvok after he's been through that sort of ordeal. I'm not saying Tuvok would WANT others to be hugging him#and offering him emotional comfort etc (he's Vulcan) but I find it interesting that the narrative assumes that the black body (even alien)#is more 'durable' than its white counterparts. 'Stronger'. Assumes that there is no interiority which recoils and sustains the damage#when hurt. That there is nothing worth exploring because there is no impact from the impact. A crater lands and the Soil beneath it is#untouched

cannot explain but
did anyone else get super “just make sure that you’re following your heart, not christopher’s okay?” vibes
…from maddie’s “and if there is something you need to tell eddie.. you will. just, in your own time” ?????
because they hold the same amount of weight for entirely different reasons, yet they both talk about the confusion of feelings…
#evan buckley#eddie diaz#carla price#maddie han#buddie#LIKE#DO YOU GET WHAT I MEAN GUYS#carla talking about how eddie is in a relationship simply for chris’ feelings and how he is possibly confusing those two#maddie outright TOLD buck that she believes he is confused about his feelings#and deliberately brought up needing to tell eddie something..#she knows buck is confusing platonic with romantic#carla knew eddie was trying to fill a space where shannon used to belong in chris’ life#which ALSO was confirmed!!!#it is just all so insane#and i am very convinced s8 will be eddie’s gay breakdown era#whether its s8a to put it in motion#or s8b to parallel his ptsd storyline idk!#but god i am losing it#sept 26th hurry up!!#buddie speculation

Lan Xichen is dead. Jin Guangyao holds his body.
for @crithir for the @xiyaogotcha4gaza !! i really hope you like it!!! :D i got a bit carried away with this one but i couldnt help it, its SUCH a good and crunchy prompt, i live for the angst <333
ID under the cut! (ive not written a video ID before so i apologise if its not great and welcome feedback!)
[video description:
frame 1: JGY holds LXC's limp body in his lap, one hand cradling LXC's head and the other clutching LXC's own hand against his bleeding abdomen. LXC has a vacant expression and JGY looks shocked and horrified, unable to process what he is seeing. There is blood coating JGY's hands, LXC's robes, and pooling out of LXC's mouth and nose. The animation style is wobbly with sketchy hatched shading.
frame 2: The perspective is angled upwards towards JGY's face from behind LXC's head, highlighting JGY's expression. JGY continues to look horrified and blinks as tears stream down his face.
frame 3: The perspective switches to look down on LXC's expression from above JGY's head. His eyes are clouded over, mouth slightly ajar. There is blood staining his forehead ribbon, trailing from his mouth and nose, and splattered on his cheek.
frame 4: The perspective returns to how it was in frame 1. JGY blinks the tears from his eyes and looks distraught, before ducking his head to hide his expression. Lines indicate he is shaking. He clenches LXC's hand tighter for a moment before letting go to grab LXC's opposite shoulder to pull him closer and more securely in his arms so that LXC's head is by his chin. The perspective zooms in as JGY raises his head to show an expression of murderous rage towards the viewer. The screen gets darker and vignettes as it zooms in. JGY's face is dark, the only facial features visible being his eyes in bright contrast. Red lines of light shoot from the corners of his eyes to indicate the power of his rage.]
#xiyao#xiyaogotcha4gaza#jin guangyao#lan xichen#cw death#cw blood#idk who killed lxc or how but they are one frame away from getting VIOLENTLY OBLITERATED by jgy. no one is allowed to hurt er-ge. LET ALONE#KILL ER-GE!!! >:(#im sorry if this looks messy especially near the end#-i messed up my layers and what was moving on what layer and ended up in such a confused mess#the animation timeline showing the frames and layers would probably make anyone who knows anything about animation cry. luckily for me i do#not know anything about animating i am simply bluffing my way through making it up as i go hjdskjds#pasc's art tag

People who view Wanderer like this fascinate me. Like how was he supposed to. Stay a villain. Completely ignoring how limiting him to being.. 'psychopathic' (not a big fan of using that word in this context) ignores the nuances of his character, how was he meant to continue being an antagonistic force??? We kinda. Crushed any hope that he had abt being able to ascend to godhood. We took the gnosis from him, then gave it to Dottore, who is part of the Fatui- the organization he BETRAYED. Dottore views Scaramouche's attempt to seize godhood as a fun little experiment, but now that he's seen that he failed, Dottore wouldn't be interested in trying again... We backed Scaramouche into a corner, man. He can't do ANYTHING. He can't go back to the Fatui and his literal only goal for the past 400ish years that he was so close to achieving was smashed in front of his face. He can't go back to that previous ambition either.
That's why I don't understand some people's pushback to him.. accepting Nahida's mercy?? And staying with her in Sumeru?? What else was he supposed to do??? And then it's like. Yeah, of course he's gonna internalize some better behavior because yEAH Nahida is a good influence. She stops him from isolating himself and pushes him into participating in things (like in the Darshan event) to allow things in this world to have meaning to him. So he stays. Because.. this undoubtedly makes him feel better. He's so much gentler to people as Wanderer, and that's because he's learning to once again be gentle with himself. Idk, I've always felt that this was a very natural progression...
#i want to go inside these people's brains bc I simply cannot understand#??? it makes me so confused#i hope i dont come off mean#i am. genuinely bewildered#how did they manage to interpret his lore so differently?#or the themes of sumeru and in turn the entirety of teyvat w divinity and such..#wanderer#scaramouche#fig rambling tag#:') i will forever be confused by some ppl's takes on Wanderer

@bigboobyhalo Your sacrifices have been accepted by the great Dapper. I'm so sorry but I don't think you'll be getting them back anytime soon. Or ever.
#nemart#qsmp#qsmp fanart#qsmp eggs#personal hc that bc the eggs are dragons they Love hoarding things#it differs with the egg#But Dappers pride-of-place in his little hoard are the plushies that Bad made him of 'their family.'#Bad's sitting in an armchair trying to crochet normally and Dapper is crouched beside him like a gargoyle watching him unblinkingly like 0-#Bad only realises the downside of how much Dapper loves them when Skeppy finally meets Dapper in person and Dapper reacts like that dog-#-who saw someone dressed up as his favourite toy and just went ballistic with happiness#-Like Dapper is Smart and he Knows that oh this is my other dad#this does not stop him from going ???? HUH ?????? PLUSHIE GOT BIG ?????? And attempting to add an increasingly confused Skeppy to the hoard#However the Real problems arise when he meets Junior who not only looks just like his plushie but is also Small and Shiny.#Skeppy can simply Walk Away when Dapper is trying furiously to get him to stay still#Junior Cannot.#Badboyhalo voice Where is my baby#Dapper (who knows perfectly well that Junior is currently going ???? is a veritable mountain of blankets) 'Oh he's missing? That's crazy.'#Anyway once again I am unable to resist writing a whole damn essay in the tags#Neon i Very much hope you like the drawing I cannot get your plushies out of my head they are so cute <3333

#signing off for some time#i have some things to sort through 🫡#please expect something relating to au yvverse on valentines day! (i will be back by then)#a non-snz journal entry before i leave (not expecting anyone to read this):#i think writing humor is an interesting challenge#i remember reading a book in uni where i thought the narration was very interesting and pleasing and sharp#but then reading the reviews for it half a year later and seeing people say 'i couldn't stop laughing when i was reading this' / 'people#on the train were giving me weird looks because i was laughing so hard / this is the funniest book i've read all year' etc. and i remember#feeling distinctly confused... i had not registered that the irony and the sharp commentary were supposed to be funny; they were simply#texturally interesting to me 😭 i also remember submitting a short story draft and having a professor say in workshop 'your writing is very#funny. it reminds me of [movie he liked] which i also found to be very funny'#and i was like 😃❓ (i had also not intended for the story to be funny. but i thought it was a compliment that he read it that way)#humor is so inexplicable to me#i'm working on a series which i actively want to be funny and every time i write out a joke i'm like... fretting a little internally#like do i even know what humor is 😭😭 it's like this relay race exercise where (1) i hand off a scene and (2) the audience interprets it as#playfulness... neither of us is allowed to drop the baton in order for this to work 🏃♀️ it's a little scary??!! it feels so vulnerable#i think it's an interesting problem... trying to find all of these little pockets where i can modulate the tone towards playfulness#alsooooo unrelated... these days i find myself feeling the instinctive need to apologize to everyone 😭 i thought i would be fine#but now looking at myself i'm like... girl something is broken here 😭‼️ i tried rephrasing this in like 10 different ways and#nothing seemed right. anyways for good measure: i am sorry#truthfully i still feel like just half a person sometimes#perhaps i shall reemerge from this break metamorphosed into someone more tolerable 🐛 -> 🦋

“Don‘t you know who I am?” It’s instinctive, and it comes out a little more arrogant than intended, but the man before him doesn’t even blink.
“Do you think I care?” he retorts, and there’s just as much bite. It makes anger flare inside of Thomas, hot and prickling at the sheer audacity. The man is shorter than him - only by a handful of inches, but still - he’s smaller, thinner, and obviously not as big a name, but it’s like he doesn’t seem to know that. He stares down Thomas with enough sass and fire to make it clear he considers Thomas a worthy opponent, which– wow. It’s been a long time since Thomas encountered someone this brave.
—————
Thomas has always been good at reading people, always had a knack for picking the needy ones - the desperate, starstruck boys and girls and everything in between who just want to be told they’re wanted, who invariably fall spellbound under his gaze and pliant under his hands.
The fledgling in the second row is perfect. He’s pretty, feathered black hair and pouty red lips, and his dark eyes fix on Thomas with the kind of wonder that doesn’t feel like flattery as much as it does certainty. He knows it won’t take more than a word or two – or maybe even just the right glance – to get him backstage, and then the deal is sealed.
He’s not using them, at least not any more than they’re using him. Everyone gets what they want out of the interaction, which is to say that no one gets what they want. None of the pretty young things get to keep him for more than a night, and he never gets more than a couple hours of distraction before it’s on to the next show, the next city, the next fucking night and he has to do it all over again – wind him up and watch him go.
—————
Yellow catcrow enjoyers I come bearing not one, but TWO new catcrow fics written as part of a collaboration with my incredible beloved most wonderful @anything-thats-rock-and-roll .
30/12/24 these two fics were literally just two ideas saved in separate docs with a handful of words in when we thought - why not?
It’s been a whirlwind of like. 30 hours at the very most but here suddenly they exist! Both can be read as standalones, but it’s definitely worth reading both (and not because I’m biased)!!
So for enjoyers of the modern and the weird, of actors and musicians and some good old-fashioned one night stands, I present you these :)
#dead boy detectives#catcrow#monty x cat king#monty the crow#the cat king#thomas the cat king#cat king#monty x the cat king#monty finch#dead boy detective agency#dead boy detectives fanfic#I have had so much fun writing these I am begging you check them out#to put it simply birds fic is a oneshot that is simultaneously a filmed scene in my fic it’s very confusing and I love it so much#save dead boy detectives
