as someone who isnt super excited for sotm for certain reasons I am really glad that like. it's clear that since ruin theyve been setting up for carnival and sotm IS carnival. so now that carnival is finally coming out, afterwards theyll be moving on to other plotlines since the main villain stuff is sorted out

I'm just rlly happy to finally see a clear direction for how the story is gonna be playing out with like "okay these games were leading up to this so after this will be open possibilites" instead of like. absolutely no info about each upcoming game and being left guessing before it releases and just having to wait and see what's in it and if anything you're looking forward to will be in it

it feels like they have a plan and a solid direction for what they're trying to do and after carnival releases thatll be all that buildup coming to fruition. & we already know from the Scott interview that theres another release 'beyond sotm' that's 'super exciting' so maybe thatll be focusing on another big currently untouched (which is basically all of them) plotline, or even the big campaign game that dawko has been calling security breach 2

is it a crime to like the holiday my birthday falls on? 🤨 https://www.tumblr.com/askchilchuck/765528907668733953/my-bday-is-on-halloween-d?source=share

Aww, did I strike a nerve?

[irondad-defensesquad]

it always just hits me that:

tony was abused and emotionally neglected since he was a child

he was expected to "toughen up" so he was sent to boarding school, where he was bullied by the other kids (the bullying itself i don't recall being confirmed in the mcu, but i'm assuming it is)

his first real friend is probably rhodey... and they're already teenagers here, right?

i just wish i could hug tony forever

i feel so silly being anxious about my ENT appointment at 930 🥴

[altruistic-meme]

oh you KNOW i gotta ask 10

and also 11 cause maybe talking about it would help

you are one cruel, cruel fiend, milo. why would you do this to me.

10. 🤡How many Wips are you actively working on?

alexa play "oh my dear lord" by the unlikely candidates

okay. okay. so in the interest of trying to limit what we consider ACTIVELY working on, i'm going to exclude fics that i'm not really sure if i'll ever finish and fics that i haven't actually STARTED writing, but i'm still going to include fics i know i'm going to return to even if i haven't touched them in a while. so let's check the WIP list...

3 for All for the Game (why is there) joy in this poison, Figurative Ghosts, go low

2 for Young Royals Dare(d) To Do It, Not Supposed to Know*

1 for Captive Prince laurent stabs damen

9 for Bungo Stray Dogs blackhole time fuckery, will you be mine? (no sir), The Port Mafia Boss's Most Loyal Dog, me-ow, dazai's job, abo au, outsider POV of corruption, who tf is slug????, not really a college au,

so that is... 15 TOTAL, most of which are currently bsd fics bc i have been bouncing between all of the WIPs there with incredible frequency cus my brain refuses to just STAY PUT ON ONE.

*techinically i haven't actually written anything for NSTK, but because it is one half of the Parallels AU and i have written for Dare(d), which is its partner fic, i'm still counting that as having worked on it. especially since they're 2 POVs of the same story, which means some of the events in Dare(d) will be shown in NSTK as well, so the same dialogue will be used in both for scenes they share.

11. 🛠Is there a scene or anything in the WIP you are struggling with right now?

oh this is about to be so long im so sorry

i think there's something im struggling with with all of my bsd WIPs right now, which is probably part of why there are just so many that i'm actively working on bc if i get stuck on one i can just move to something else for a while ;;;;

largely, i feel like im struggling a lot with figuring out Dazai and Chuuya's characters which obviously affects all of the WIPs since they're all skk-centric!! but they're both such complex characters with a super complex relationship with each other and i really love that about them and i want to be able to get that across, even in the shorter fics!! (this was also a struggle with the torturing kunikida fic, though since it was from Kunikida's POV it was a little easier bc i could show the contrast to what he expected of skk vs. what he saw that day to help get that across)

but just. characterization is ALWAYS an issue for me, especially when i first start writing characters. and i know that it'll be fine bc it always is, i think my anxiety about it causes me to put in the effort to really make the characters work and people usually really seem to enjoy them?? it is one of the things about my writing that people mention most often (and i will never tire of that, see: lots of anxiety about it) so i know i should calm down about it but HHHHHH

on the brightside(?) i do have a WIP that's still very much in the planning stages that will allow me to look at and play with a lot of the more toxic/codependent/generally unhealthy aspects of the two of them + their relationship while also giving me some more wiggle room in their characterization, which i think will be a fun way to help curb some of that anxiety when i actually start writing it.

and outside of that, looking at a specific WIP for an issue im facing currently: Loyal Dog is giving me SO MUCH TROUBLE bc i know what needs to happen and i know overall how the story is going to go and what the main points in it are. but actually figuring out how to write what i need to get down is. a struggle.

like it's just. i know the main plot and the main points and some of what needs to be done to get there. but the finer details are tripping me up. this time i think the outsider POV is working against me here, but also having it from an outsider POV is necessary to the story as i want it told!! idk. it's a LOT stupid little details that i need to plan and decide on while trying to make it plausible that's stressing me out more and hhhhhhhhhh

the brotherhood of mutants ARE an activist group dont get me wrong they accomplish their goals and all. but 90% of the time its toad and avalanche watching mystique & magneto argue about the politics of calling it the brotherhood of mutants

sometimes i feel so petty i want to make a big post about all the times Will and El weren't that great towards Mike just to ..you know.. balance it out a bit

You don't want to be more ill or more visibly ill. You want it to be easier

[speedydestinydream]

Tmf isnt very accurate in many ways but I like to think that one of the main accurate things rosy nailed was the fact that the jomies have been bullies for years and still haven't been (onscreen) punished and not even stopped. You'd think that after middle school to junior year of highschool the school would notice and stop them for good, but guess what! Nope!

how do you think Alicent, Otto and Criston would react to the mess that is helaegond? imo, Otto would support it, Criston would internally cringe but otherwise pretend it doesn’t exist and Alicent would be kept in the dark bc Criston would pull every string to hide it from her. I have this theory that Alicent is actually against incest despite her insistence on marrying her daughter to her son. She did it because strategically speaking, it was the best option (to keep Helaena safe and keep the dragons within the family) but it disgusted her in a moral sense. Criston knows this so, as her most devout protector, he shields her from this knowledge the best he can.

I feel like if Helaegond would be happening in the show with the character's acting as close to canon as possible, nobody would support it.

I think both Criston and Alicent would see it as morally wrong because not only is it Incest (which they may overlook because Targaryens are Targaryens and what kinda hypocrisy would it be to tell one brother to love his sister but the other that it's wrong) but it would also make Helaena a cheater and as we all know, a man may be allowed to sleep out of wedlock but a woman? Not a chance.

Like, even if it was crystal clear that Aegon is in the know and encourages the relationship between Aemond and Helaena/is a participant, it would still somehow be read as a moral failing on Helaena's part.

Also all her children would be seen as potential bastards and unlike Rhaenyra, she doesn't have a father who would care about her well-being and who would cover for her.

Additionally, Aemond and Aegon having a relationship? In Grrm's world? Where gay people cannot exist? Since they can't produce heirs, they can't marry, if they aren't married, it's still infidelity, even worse because it's queer.

Like, even if you put a woman inbetween, I don't think queer relationships are that well perceived within Westeros. Probably not even within the Targaryen dynasty and they do the nasty with their siblings.

If Aegon were King, maybe he could bend the law to take Aemond as a second wife but even then, Aemond and Helaena would both still have to be dutiful to their husband, so no sex between the two of them.

So in my opinion, the three of them would be playing a very dangerous game and nobody could ever know (so of course somebody like Larys knows and goats it over the Queen's head simply because he can, while Alicent tries her best not to see what's right in front of her).

I don't know what Otto would think of it personally, but it's a good way to ensure Aemond does everything necessary to keep his family safe - especially if some of Helaegon's kids are his.

The Billions Showrunners Go To See Bway Bmc like lgw "the problem has always been me" and they look at each other approvingly and nod like now he's getting it :) and then the squip's deactivated and everyone's embracing the realities of being a person and rejecting the idea there can be, should be, and is a set of standards to meet to get everything you want and preclude yourself from being mistreated and they're like nooo what a powerful tragedy :(

[yuridovewing]

I should make a list of wc super editions that i straight up don’t consider canon. like “no this did not happen to those characters growing up, stop lying”. Mostly Yellowfang’s Secret. Everything about Yellowfang’s Secret. I think we should all collectively look at Yellowfang’s Secret and go “None of that happened, not the family tree stuff, none of it.” and walk away

Honestly idk how can you find funny passive aggressive posts that imply that fanfic readers need therapy or to get laid which is the tumble version of calling u mental or the r word or freak and girl u need to fuck you're hysterical.
