🌎 OPERATION HOT CHIMP V2

V1 was rolled out with some criticizng remarks. Some unfortunate stuff has been said to/about myself, but Im willing to overlook it in the spirit of mcr. With that said, I have redesigned the rules and i think there fair. I took you peoples thoughts into considertion even thoug most of you were rude, but lets set that aside to focus on July 26, the.........

WORLD WIDE DANGER DAYS BLAST 💥🤯🤯

On July 26 we're going to post fics, hcs, art, cosplays, vids etc to show ppl that were back with a force 💣👏 Ive set some ground rules for OPERATION HOT CHIMP and all DD content going forward. Lets face it, DD is in shambles but this will place us at the top of the fandom:

🦍 You CAN say you wanna fuck the witch, but idk why you WOULD.

🦍 OC names should be no more than 3 words. Any more than that and your just playin yourself

🦍 OC names should be more original in general, for example mine is Ricky Bobby, its funny, reference to my fav will ferell movie etc.

🦍 No more sayin that Kobra Kid is 🇬🇧british. Im not budgin on that one bcuz it makes no sense. WHy would brits be in california. All flights are grounded, no cruise ships etc. What do you people thnk the end of the world is, its not "la dee da" land

🦍 If you write/draw stuff about the four you HAVE to include the girl. Some of you agree (thank you) so Im keepin this one.

🦍 No makin fun of me, OR ANYONE ELSE for any reason

Ok so I think this is pretty fair to everyone. Call it CODENAME GORILLA when your around non-DD ppl (normies). We're going to blow their minds with the biggest blast the MCRmy has ever seen🤯🤯 July 26, write it down 📝

No this is not a joke....someone needs to straighten things up around here....might as well be me🤌

As Ricky Bobby said shake....and BAKE🤛

Oh my god I got it again 😭

*cracks knuckles*

The one story I’ve posted on here doesn’t have the girl in it so I’ve already failed that lmfao. She’s not supposed to be in it, I like to think they all left her in safe hands in the desert while they (spoiler alert ahead) attempt to avenge Ghost in the city. Would love to see more things with the girl tho across the fandom, I agree there. She needs to be in more things

BRITS CAN BE IN CALIFORNIA 😭 brits could’ve come to the us and California before all the events in DD even happened. Personally I don’t hc Kobra to be British but it is a funny joke in the fandom and a funny hc some people have 😭

WITCHFUCKER WEDNESDAY!!!! WE LOVE IT!!!

Anyways. The thing is I just don’t agree with setting rules for ALL content regarding DD

They left the canon loose enough for all of us to run wild with our imaginations when it comes to both the canonical characters and our ocs

The charm of DD is that the canon is so loose that we are able to say what we want and create what we want! And that’s awesome!

I’m sorry that there’s been people being rude to you. But I, and I’m sure I speak for everyone else here too, just don’t agree with setting ground rules for something that was left so loose for us to run wild with our imaginations

[beartitled]

Hello there!! I was looking through some of the discord shenanigans posts and I was just wondering if you’re accepting new members?

Hi! Well first of all, glad you enjoyed the comics! It means a lot to know that you enjoyed those silly shenanigans ❤️

Sadly I’ve already left the server recently, so can’t really help much 🤷

For ppl curious my rambling, as always, will be under read more👇

As for you question:

the server’s called “TSP creators club”

yes, I believe they still accept new members, you can contact @/kelpiekidd or @/heckinrissa I think (not tagging them, to not disturb them)

They’re mods there, should help with it 🤷

This might sound weird to some ppl bc I was heavily associated with TSPcc

To be frank I wouldn’t be where I am right now, if not TSPcc: I would’ve never stuck with The Stanley Parable for as long as I did, never could’ve met so many wonderful creative people (many of whom are my friends right now)

+the server kick-started my recognition as a creator

For that I’m thankful and still look back at this part of my life with a warm smile

But nothing can last forever

(god I’m saying it like something horrible happened, which is not the case)

Basically

The reasons are mostly the same as why I left the TNP fic*: I’m not active on the server + most of my friends left from there

(*TNP - The Narrative Parable fanfic – a collaborative project involving many other creators and narrators)

So um yea, this might not be enough of a reason

But I will not do a whole comic on “The history of TSP fandom” right 📓🖋️

(oh wait I might actually 😭��� you will maybe get this joke far in the future)

___________________

I also want to address

Discord Shenanigans aged, quite a lot

I do not regret making those comics, I still like them to this day

But

That content is not something I want to be known for, to me, it’s part of the past

I look back at them as archived memories

They are like an old photo album of sorts 📒

____________________

This does not mean I’m leaving TSP fandom

Want to be clear on that one

I still enjoy the game and the community it built around itself

Yes I still enjoy the fandom, despite meaningless drama in the community that ruins the fun for everyone

(It’s my first fandom I was a part of, I’m biased ok 😈)

‼️ I do not justify any messed up people who are or were in the fandom ‼️

What I’m trying to say that drama/creepy people are just part of any fandom experience honestly

I totally understand people who just don’t want to be a part of the fandom, it’s reasonable and valid. I’ve heard some really messed up stuff, I don’t know the full extent of every situation and don’t want to discuss it. I don’t believe I have the right, nor the information to even mention it. Creeps are not a fandom’s problem, creeps are just a problem.

And if people don’t want to address those situations: do not harass them with questions. If people want to address their experience or thoughts, they will. If they don’t want to start drama/don’t feel comfortable/just simply don’t want to - you should respect their decision. No person is obligated to report anything to the crowd.

On the side note (since I can’t shut up) - Barry

I kinda 👀

I kinda wanna explore him as a character and tell the story I made for him 👀✨

I will make a separate post about him later down the road

But as for now: yes the potential story revolves around tsp + Narratorverse aspects, yes I may abandon that idea bc of how complicated it is, yes I’m talking and overthinking too much - we will get there when we get there 🤚

So I’m still here, I still care about tsp creators: they do amazing stuff and they are wonderful people

As always sorry for that scroll of text 👉👉 thanks for your time, see you in the next random huge text post 👋

[jiminjeonging]

okay your blog is my comfort place so let me just get this out of my system along with everyone else so I never have to think about it ever again.

Karina is not a naive girl, which for some reason, everyone paints her out to be. She’s been in the industry long enough to know how dating rumors can negatively impact an idols career. With that being said, she 100% knew that she was being set up to be in a dating scandal with ljw. Whether she agreed to it fully or not, we will never know.

People keep pointing fingers at it being a promotional stunt to promote their upcoming album/drama, but that literally makes no sense to me because they’re both so successful in their own careers. I think there’s bigger players here that we don’t know about and the ulterior motives will remain unknown.

It’s just odd how dispatch would release the announcement that they’re dating, have absolutely no picture proofs (not even one?? 😭) and then both companies confirming the relationship shortly after. Everything sounds so forced and abrupt and unlike any other idols whose relationships got exposed.

Like when dispatch revealed that joy and crush were dating, they had picture proof of them together on dates and they both shortly went on their ig pages to confirm said relationship. Karina’s apology that she posted didn’t even address that she was in a rs or “meeting someone with good feelings” if anything, I felt like it was void of any real emotion and it was something that she was forced to post in order to diffuse the situation .

The kpop industry is and always will be a business. It’s always going to be about profiting the most and taking advantage of the pawns on the board so the higher ups can reap all the benefits. I’m sure all idols know this themselves. It’s just unfortunate to see it happening with our own very two eyes and watch the events unfold right in front of us.

i agree with you on ppl keep painting jm to be naive or downright dumb sometimes which pisses me off ngl. i think ppl took it too far with stupid cheese cat or just calling her a loser that they started to believe that its true. like ofc i call her those stuff too affectionately but because of this ppl act like jm cant be ambitious or want things for herself. ofc you can keep calling her that and i will too but ppl need to realize shes not some 2d angel character but an actual human being with dreams which she would do anything to achive.

i dont think jm agreed willingly. you can tell by how much she wanted to distance herself from it (dead to romance cap, tagging mj to her glasses bcs ppl thought it was a couple item, singing wanegbt, saying she'll come in the morning but break news dropping instead etc) and i dont think her apology was devoid from emotion. korean speakers talked about how beautiful it was and kmys that were mad at her(hope they die) all came back saying" i love you jimin ofc i forgive you this made me cry. " high chance she was advised to post it but her emotions were real and this doesnt prove dating news really at the end of the day she caused stress for the fans and she was sorry for that no matter the reason. i wish she didnt have to feel this way but she does. she always comes to bbl too when this ungreatful fandom complains about something.

yeah kpop is all business we will never know how much the idols show us is real. at the end of the day all we can do is speculate

[soup-scope]

I def think its unfair to call ppl who dislike her or talk about her harmful actions misogynistic, I also think theres an aspect of misogyny to people who are downplaying her actions. shes cool! id love to see how her mind works and if she tries to justify what she did or knows it was a bad move

I did not say you’re misogynistic if you dislike Alexis. Where are you getting this from.

If you feel the need to hide behind anon whenever you say anything remotely negative to a creator, I think you should just. Not send an ask then. (I understand to an extent if they’re a huge creator or smth but I’m. Not. I don’t think ur at risk of harassment or smth. If anything if helps *ME* out cause then we could have this convo in the dms or smth. Instead of you putting words i haven’t said into *my* mouth. On *my* blog.)

Anyways the point of that paragraph is to say my dms are open if you ever want clarification on any of my viewpoints and that I think hiding behind anon on this blog is dumb cause only like two people pay attention to my opinions on here and even interact with my content when it isn’t art based.

Back to the point at hand.

I think I know what you’re referencing, and you’re taking it completely wrong and running off a cliff with a point I never made.

What I THINK you’re talking about. Is a comment I made saying smth along the lines of “I don’t hate Alexis as much as I could because she’s a woman.” And to explain that. That’s smth I always do with fictional women lmao.

And I also mention that the reason why I do that, is because in many fandom spaces (including redacted) many people tend to enter misogynistic zones when they hate female characters. You’re allowed to dislike female characters‼️‼️ but I’ve seen people get INCREDIBLY misogynistic with female characters they dislike. When their male counterparts have potentially done worse.

I’m very neutral about Alexis. I don’t care enough about vampires that aren’t Vincent Solaire or Alice Cullen.

You’re allowed to dislike Alexis and her actions. But if you do so while calling her a ‘bitch’ and so with even more vitriol than you’d show someone like Kody? Yeah imma look at u funny.

Every three months the redacted fandom discovers critical thinking and it’s sending me through the fucking roof.

If you have any more questions. I’ll either talk to u in my dms or on the comments of this post or smth. 😭😭

[kuntniss]

so real. yeah, 'plot twist' byler and all but i think some ppl just ignore the extent of homophobia and its effects. this doesn't only have to do with the ships. it is very much affecting real life people and actors. the homophobia noah's faced was not good, and not ever once the writers said something about it. ''but they already show their stance on the show by portraying bigots as villains.'' bestie.... i do not really know what to tell you BUT that really does not say anything in terms of making a necessary statement to stop the actors/irl people from getting hurt. and the caleb stuff has been dirty and disgusting. caleb was like... 13 years old or maybe even younger when the racism against him and lucas were very 'popular' within the fandom.

re: this

then when they do address (if you can even call it that) racism, look how the fandom treats billy? they literally do not care that he wanted to kill a young black boy or that he’s just a shitty guy in general 😭 this fandom is full of dumbasses and bitches who make excuses for every white man on the planet. troy & his friends made a racist remark in st1 too and that went over peoples heads and again, wasn’t brought up after. like they just don’t care lmao, it’s that simple. it literally is not activism or hard to do to just tell people to chill the fuck out. no one’s asking for them to join a fuckin protest, the least they can do is acknowledge the amt of shit caleb and noah and their characters get like… and i feel like half the people in this fandom would be like “oh well you shouldn’t baby bigots they know they’re shitty” and yeah they’re right in a way but a lot of them ARE ignorant and dumb as fuck and truly think they’re correct, not to mention like… a statement isn’t babying anyone. it’s to protect the actors that are dealing with this shit because of them. and the way you absolutely know they wouldn’t address it still if byler wasn’t endgame even with the amt of homophobia that would come about because of that… yeah lmao. they’re not trying to resist coddling and spoon feeding bigots. they just don’t care enough. even mentioning it in some interview or whatever the fuck would be better than just acting like we’re all best friends… idk.

[lesbiancarat]

i saw a tweet hating on big carat twt accts because “all they care about is their aesthetic and not about telling others to stream” HUUUUHHHH maybe they just don’t care about streaming at all and literally these accts don’t even have an “aesthetic” to maintain, they’re just shitposting and being a normal fan 😭😭😭 and even with member update accts you’d see streaming accts trying to guilt trip the admins by saying “you have so many followers it’s a shame you don’t call on carats to stream” ……. it’s behavior i will never understand

the irony of it all is that those big accounts that just post regular memes/updates/funny tweets probably unintentionally do more to promote svt than any of those streaming or voting accounts do anyway. like while the direct goal of streaming/voting is to get more views or awards or to win a silly little poll, in the grand scheme of things the main goal is to bring more attention to the group. but i'd argue that a funny tweet going viral is more likely to bring in more fans than an account yelling at ppl who already stan the group that they're not a good enough fan or whatever

and i've talked about this before, but while streaming might make a difference in views, it's not by orders of magnitude. like the reason dwc has 200M views is not bc carats streamed extra hard that era, it's bc it became super popular among non-carat kpop stans. like at the end of the day what matters isn't the views or awards, what matters is how many ppl know the group and what they know about them. the reasons views and awards are talked about is bc it's one way to gauge how many ppl are paying attention to the group

but like even if all the streaming/voting did make a genuine difference, so what? being a fan isn't a job. the whole point of fandom is to have fun. it's an idol's/musician's job to entertain. and like yeah as fans we want our idols to do well, but why act like it's a crime that fans are just enjoying themselves and having fun and not spending every day stressing about numbers?

honestly i understand the mentality somewhat bc i went through a streaming phase back in the day. u get so focused on the numbers and the goal and u think about all the people that could be helping but aren't and it means you "have" to work harder, etc, etc. but at the end of the day it's just putting stress on yourself for basically no reason

like let the pledis/hybe staff worry about numbers and awards. they're the ones getting paid for it. we're here to have fun, so just let ppl have fun lol

[chanstopher]

hii dreamy!! just wanted to say i love your gifs and content in general so so so much!!!! and you seem like a nice person who's also not afraid to call out people's bullshit which i appreciate because sometimes you just have to put your foot down and be like 'okay now stop being weird and an asshole in my askbox' you know 😭 anyway again i looooove your content thank you for sharing it and your love for chan with us 💓 i wish i had more courage (and time tbh) to make kpop/skz gifs, i feel so lost most of the time and like what i make isn't that good, and i know if i kept giffing kpop i'd get better but i don't feel like people care to see my gifs, i'm a pretty small blog... so i just get stuck in this 'my gifs aren't good enough and no one cares enough for me to try and get better at it' mindset :(( sorry for dumping all this on you i came here literally just to compliment and thank you rsdxjbk have a good day dreamy!!

omg ok first thank you so much for your sweeet words they mean so much to me. i know that sounds like the generic appropriate response but i really mean it, having ppl enjoy not just my content but me just being myself is really so important to me and it really makes me feel so happy. but about not feeling like ur content is worthy, i’m gonna tell you i struggle with that every single day bestie. if i let myself delete content i end up thinking is ugly, or if i only posted things i felt confident in this blog wouldn’t have like 90% of the content it does. and you are right that if you just practice things can get better, and i know it sounds ridiculous coming from a blog that does get notes but making content really is for yourself at the end of the day. i also think that when it comes to gif making people are both afraid to give constructive criticism to help others improve and get any kind of criticism because it’s something you put effort into already. sometimes i see content and i want to be like oh hey if you just adjust this setting your gifs wouldn’t be so grainy or like if you use this you can adjust the coloring better. but it feels mean (even though i never have those thoughts in a mean way) and also hypocritical cause i don’t like a lot of my own stuff for the same reasons xjxndn i don’t think you should give up on making content tho, i think most people would be willing to give tips or tutorials on how they do things to help make your gifs come out how you want them. also everyone starts out as a small blog, this blog is only like 2 1/2 years old and i think the only thing that truly matters if you want your following to grow is presence. i think posting consistently (not all the time just frequently enough to be in tags enough for ppl to start to remember your url) and being a vocal part of the fandom is all it takes. i personally find myself drawn to following blogs of people who talk about themselves, or express their thoughts on things more than say someone who makes content and is completely silent or just negative. i think having people learn about you is important to growing. now i’m not saying sharing your entire life, but for a silly example the number of times i see ppl in my tags being like “oh i bet dreamy giffed this for how his nose looked” because i’m so crazy about chris’ nose makes me feel nice, like someone is associating something with me specifically. i hope that makes any sense lmao, i think it just makes ME feel like the people i’m interacting with are real and i think that’s what people want out of blogs, a connection even if it’s a little one sided. sorry this is so long winded but my POINT is you shouldn’t feel intimidated or discouraged by the idea of making content just because your blog is small or you don’t think your content is “good enough” the beginning of creating and really starting to find your place in a fandom space is always the hardest, but the rewards of finding friends and learning how to get better at making content is really worth it. it’s given me a lot of my best friends outside of fandom, and it’s given me skills i’ve used outside of tumblr, so i cannot really praise it enough. ok i am shutting up now but if you ever want help or advice i’m totally here for you 🖤🤍

[dreaming-of-assclass]

So I was watching/reading AssClass again recently, and my opinions on a lot of things have changed, so here are some updated hot takes 🍵

So you all know I hate the crossdressing jokes, but for the sake of keeping it simple, let’s say Nagisa is ok with his closest friends making them. This still doesn’t make sense imo bc Karma was willing to leave him a year, get creeped out by him, and throughout canon is unwilling to properly communicate with Nagisa. But all of a sudden, he’s a close enough friend to make jokes about crossdressing and feminizing him????? No it doesn’t work that way 😭

Both teams in Civil War are equally valid, now that I think about it more deeply. That said though, I feel like more people should’ve jumped on Karma’s ass and called him out. Bc the way he was acting and his anger just went far past jealousy imo.

One thing about me is that I am a sucker for “feminine” female characters. Ok, like I get that 99% of this fandom loves Rio, Hazama, Hayami, etc. But my heart will always belong to the soft girls like Okuda n Kanzaki

Nagisa is actually such an interesting character and I love him now. But I feel like he’s popular for the worst reasons :(

Terasaka was extremely pivotal in grounding Nagisa’s humanity and morality, not just in Island arc but throughout the whole series.

I want to really like Maehara x Okano, but honestly it hurts in an irl sense 💔 Like the whole vibe of not being given the importance of being desired as an actual girlfriend, rather than a fling or friend :( I feel bad for Okano, and she deserves better than that.

Korosensei and Aguri did love each other, but I can’t label it as a typical “romantic” kind of love. I feel like it went so much deeper than that, like soul bonding or something. I think they both had immense impact on each other, and that’s what’s most significant about their bond.

I really don’t wanna sound like the judgey type, you know. To each their own. But some of the ships and relationship ideas some ppl in this fandom have, make me wonder if we watched/read the same series.

I always used to talk about how Kayano was robbed, and I’ll keep saying it. She deserved to be a more fully fleshed out female character. And this means accepting her very real flaws, not making her a “girlboss” or throwing her under the bus for the sake of ships.

Karma is one of the more selfless characters in AssClass, and I feel like in this sense, he and Nagisa are two sides of the same coin.

Sugino is Nagisa’s bestie, periodt.

Nakamura gets on my nerves at times lmao. I’m sorry, but I think it’s just her vibe. I’m not a fan of irl ppl like her

Maehara is just as bad as Okajima. In a sense, he might be even worse given that he sees dating girls and cheating in a commodified lens. Don’t forget it just bc he’s conventionally attractive lmfao 💀

The final takeover of the mountain is one of the best arcs in the whole series, no cap. It does an even better job than Civil War in granting 3-E equal attention, showcasing their skills, and displaying the found family that’s been built. And Nagisa and Karma’s high-five while Terasaka yells at them is adorable.

[mobiused]

same anon who talked about being accepted as a global evaluator, i joined a group chat on twitter for orbits who were accepted to be global evaluators bc i saw it was a thing and. man i forgot how intense twitter orbits are lslfksklfkek i literally never use twitter other than to look for updates on loona and this is reminding me why 💀💀💀 i just wanna chill and have fun but they’re all like WE’RE DOING A TEST ZOOM CALL AT 8:30 KST MAKE SURE YOU JOIN. USE OUR VOTING STRATEGY WHEN THE TIME COMES OR THE GIRLS WILL LITERALLY DIE. exaggerating on that last one obv but like why can’t they chill it’s not that serious 😭 i’m not getting up earlier than i have to (my time zone has a 12 hour difference) just to join a test call lmao. also the general guilting on twitter about ppl not streaming enough or not making a shit ton of voting accounts is just wild to me like…..sorry some of us have jobs or just straight up don’t have the energy to devote to doing that and it doesn’t mean we love loona any less??? it’s just counterproductive i feel bc if they make people feel like they aren’t doing enough it can have the effect of making people want to do it even LESS. anyway this kinda went off topic at the end and got real long but my main point is that twitter is scary and i’d rather just come here to get loona updates from u mobi 🖤

p.s. i’m gonna do my best to record the performance somehow 🫶🏻 i should’ve looked into good screen recording software sooner and i’m way too tired to do it now so hopefully i have time to do it when i get up but if i have to hide my phone and point it at the screen and do it that way. then that’s what i gotta do 😔

LOL just do what i did and get OBS and screen record 👍

though yeah, i think for some of these people organising fandom things it's like a hobby for them, they can't force you to participate but it's just their weird way of having fun and feeling useful. though we could really do without the guilt tripping... i guess this is an issue for everyone, but orbits seem especially bad at projecting their issues about love being conditional (love isnt weighed by who streams the most =__=💢) but it's like whatever. totally get why it might feel even more demotivating to see people trying to guilt you into spending your time and energy on "making the girls happy". fandom has seriously gotten so cultish

[jayflrt]

yeah!!! my hs is like... one of the best advanced programs in the nation, i'm pretty sure? like we partner with 4 community colleges and you can graduate with associates if you get enough credits (i'll be like 12 short)

i woke up at 6 am since elementary school-10th grade but now??? gl getting me up before noon consistently LMAO

xiao my king <333 i saved for him for 5 months when i was f2p. i spend money now but... yeah... he also has like.. 160-180 er i think? like he can fully ult bot and live on his own w/o a battery, just needs a healer or the nre. i want to min max and get rid of his elemental mastery rolls on his artifacts and get him above 200 crit dmg SO bad

omg that's so fun. i started writing (fanfic, at least, i wanted to be an author when i was eight and wrote really bad original works) on quotev and i used to roleplay 🗿🗿🗿make harry potter and pjo ocs in ~exclusive~ groups you had to pass a test to get in.

that sounds so fun!!!! i wanted to make like... a discord of my moots but then i remembered only like... 3 of them know each other and i'm too introverted to link a bunch of people together HELP

taeyong fr has such a DROUGHT on this site like. where is my boy?? where is he?? can anyone find my boy and write fics for him (other than brooke (shout out to her for carrying tyongf on her back))???

i'm excited for taeil's too!! "there's a son of apollo named after the moon" where reader is a child of hecate and you exhaust yourself using the mist and he heals you and you slowly fall for him <3

there r two child of hermes (mark and hyuck 4lyfers), child of thanatos, etc. and i'm trying to make it so the reader is related to one of the members in each fic, so every y/n is like a different person that could stand on their own and interact !!!

like in taeyong's (i fall for a man who talks to plants), you're a child of ares and doyoung is your brother, and he has a crush on a child of aphrodite (who will be y/n in doie's fic)

i think the most my long fics get is like.. 100? maybe 200 if i'm lucky HELPPPP

but i enjoy writing them so. sorry to my following u're getting long fics anyways <3

omg that’s so cool !! i’m sure that’s rlly useful for when you start college too 🤧 mine was partnered with the community college in our area but i only took like 3-4 classes, though i do have friends that got their associate degrees during their senior year !! :’) i believe it was 60 credits for an associate (18 credits of major classes i think)

i don’t even remember when i woke up during elementary 😵‍💫 i don’t think i even woke up on my own until high school tho bc i didn’t have a smart phone until then and i used to be such a heavy sleeper LOL i lowkey still am but i think i’m just considerably easier to wake up than my roommate 🥲🥲

HAHAH i was f2p until childe’s banner and then i whaled a little for him 🤧 and ofc getting welkin but i don’t rlly consider that whaling. omg yeah i usually keep xiao in a second team with jean :’)) but i wanna build yanfei ganyu zhongli and keqing better before i focus on him 💗💗

PASS A TEST HAHAHH is it like facts from the books or something 😭😭 i don’t remember how old i was when i started writing but i kept my writing to myself for a long time and then started posting on wattpad when i was like 11 ?? and then i went through fandom phases LOLL

HAHAHA you still should !! tbh i don’t think everyone in my friend group knew each other well when it was first made :o i was in a group with cat, nikki, and ace initially and then we expanded by adding ppl we talked with often in our server LOL but i still knew of them bc some of them were/are pretty big on wattpad :o

AHH RIGHT 🤧🤧 brooke does write so many of the taeyong fics :oo it’s hard to find sfw taeyong ☹️ tho my friend manx wrote a taeyong fic called sic semper tyrannis a while ago which is soooo good 🤩 probably one of the best taeyong fics i’ve read !! 💗💗 and then “flowers in your hair” by @/solarune was also so cute !! 🌸

AHHH TAEIL ANOTHER MEMBER I BARELY SEE FICS FOR ☹️💗 but that’s so cute !! son of apollo definitely suits him <33 and i get what you mean !! i did smthn similar for my nct series — mc for jaemin’s installment was jaehyun’s younger sister, and that was alluded to in other installments as well + many of the members appear in each other’s fics (ex. mark being in jaehyun and johnny’s installments as well as getting his own) 🤧

100 notes is still so much !! just thinking ab it like :oo that’s 100 individuals leaving their love on your fic 🥰 it’s crazy to think about tbh 😵‍💫

[feydrautha]

Sorry to ask but whats the diego luna discourse? I havent seen anything about it

a whitepassing argentinian who thinks shes the universal voice of latinx tumblr bc she knows about oppression dynamics and colorism within the latinx comm said a few days ago that diego luna is a white latinx and we should stop saying he plays a non-white lead in r1, bc according to her his father is white and diego never said in an interview that he’s mestizo or chicano/xicano. this is the post: http://hijadepavlov.tumblr.com/post/155716944699/i-am-absolutely-guilty-of-this-but-our-collective

all of this is Lol bc 1) diego may be lightskinned but? is not even whitepassing 2) while his mother may be a white british woman, his father is clearly a brown man??? funnily enough, she would always post pictures of him where there’s a literal spotlight on him so ofc he’s gonna look much lighter 3) idk about you but if you lived in a country where a lot of the population are mestizxs, you don’t go talking about your mestizo heritage??? also nvm that he /does/ talk about being mexican and it’s always in US interviews; also xicano/chicano is used to describe mexican-americans, diego grew up in mexico so why would he call himself that???

the nasty thing about all of this is that the moment non-latinxs read abt this, they instantly believed her and i saw ppl on twitter wanting to drop diego bc “oh no he’s white 😭😭😭 diego luna: cancelled” and basically exposed themselves and how they fetishize men of color/non-white celebs in general; but this discussion - how (especially white) fandom treats characters and celebrities of color as Get Out Of Jail cards and stans them to the point where i at least often wonder “are you genuine in caring that much about this character or are you really just doing this to get a seat at the Cool Pee Oh Cee table?” - is such a broad topic that it’s really something that needs its own special focus on it

back to the actual topic, when people (the majority being mixed latinxs, a lot of them mexican) were calling bullshit on White Diego LunaTM, she started saying that the people who were arguing that diego is a moc were either white latinxs or gringxs/white americans and refuses to realize she’s wrong on the matter and only engages with people who support her opinion. most people who agree on White Diego are non-latinxs and it’s super annoying to see this because this isn’t their lane at all, stay the fuck outta this discussion
