Also hey I wanna say too that pretty much every single headcanon ever is valid. Even if they aren’t popular, even if they go against canon, even if they change on the regular and make for a throughly transformative work.
I think fandom is supposed to be fun and honestly it just acts like a toybox of sorts? With all these malleable characters as action figures that you play with as you like. If you wanna make them bigger or smaller or change their species or what they present as or how they sound or even act - you can! You can and you should!
Have fun, because you’ll inevitably find others who like what you do too. And even if you don’t, as long as you like it, then that’s what matters.
#this is something I’m saying partially to myself too#personally I have a huge problem of wanting to ‘justify’ my headcanons#where I do my damndest to ‘prove’ that what I headcanon is possible in canon#because it personally makes me feel much better and less anxious#but it’s something I gotta move past because sometimes rule of fun is better than canon justification#I still personally prefer to keep close to canon or within the realm of canon for my works#but I think I’ll stop trying to justify every little thing and just have a little more fun with it#but yeah saying right now that even if it’s not my personal cup of tea or something I headcanon myself#I will still fight for people’s right to have fun with these toy box action figures#is there an argument to be made of ‘at some point these characters just become OCs’? yeah but…who cares?#idk this was mostly something for myself to keep in mind but in light of recent events#I think I’ll post it too#also wanna say - don’t attack others for their headcanons#if you don’t like it then block them#remember that there are real people here that you could hurt okay?#the way they connect with a character will inevitably be different than you

I agree!! *an incoherent rant incoming* Jean imo def moved on from Kevin (in a romantic way; i think he’s not moved on from the whole ‘Kevin left me’ thing ofc but I think he obviously knows and accepts that he and Kevin won’t ever happen lol). And that scene with Renee was obviously a closure/farewell and they’ve moved on to being friends now (also imo while i like their dynamic i feel like they’d never work bc of the whole victim saviour complex, that’d be really uncomfortable and hard to overcome). Jeremy seems like he’s able to handle Jean’s crazy baggage without placating him too much or pushing him too hard. He definitely needs to work on his own shit first (i feel like the way he went all in on helping Jean is kind of giving ‘I am avoiding my problems by getting too involved in others’ problems’) but I think Jean will be the perfect person to help him with that! As you said he’s super perceptive and honestly very empathetic even if he doesn’t show it in the most obvious way. Jeremy would probably really appreciate Jean’s brutally honest approach lol. They’re lowkey perfect for each other ☹️ TSC2 can’t come soon enough
hardcore agree on every single point you made!! i feel exactly the same about Jean and Renee, as much as their dynamic is sweet, i think it would be really difficult to overcome Jean feeling indebted to her (whereas Jean and Jeremy are both growing together) + ya i think Jean has very complicated feelings toward Kevin but i don’t think he’s actively yearning over Kevin anymore
and exactlyy i definitely imagine Jean quietly picking up on whatever Jeremy’s going through and expressing concern only for Jeremy to try and pull a “my problems aren’t that bad and therefore don’t matter” which i don’t see Jean accepting. especially since Jean has an ‘older brother who cares more about other people’s well-being more than his own well-being’ vibe (underneath his slightly prickly attitude lol) i think Jeremy and Jean are really good for each other, Kevin subconsciously knew what he was doing by having Jean transfer to USC 🤨
#anon i love you#that was absolutely not incoherent we’re on the same wavelength here#def craving that next book lol#feel like it’s still only the very beginning of jean’s story#would not be surprised if we got two more books to make another trilogy#side note but i’m still so obsessed w the characterization of Jean as being so perceptive and attuned to other people’s feelings#logically i know it’s bc he had to read riko’s mood to appease him and probably also his parents#since even tho he barely will talk about it he’s confirmed that at the very least his mother beat him#and i honestly just can’t imagine his father who literally sold him treated jean any better#but even tho it’s partially due to abuse i still think it says something about jean#bc riko underwent horrible abuse too and was raised by similarly horrible people too#and yet riko turned out the way he did#and jean became perceptive and caring so#… anyways sorry to pop off in the tags lmao#aftg#tsc#the sunshine court#jean moreau#i just love him so#jerejean#ask tag

If Ulysses has a million haters, then I'm one of them. If Ulysses has one hater, then I'm THAT ONE. If Ulysses has no haters, that means I'm dead. If the world is with Ulysses than I’m against the world.
#this is slightly joking but like also not but also like am mixed on Ulysses on many factors#infuriating because i sympathize with his pain but it’s like#he is a well written and fundamentally flawed character whose hypocrisy I found doubly in#black characters I can tell were designed by white people with a semblance of an understanding of activism and bipoc oppression#but not enough for the character to not feel like hand holding for the majority white audience#plus personal grips with the whole twisted hairs thing and reference to slave braiding patterns#Ulysses irks me as a black person on a weird personal level and I can go into debt on why him being black is a big detractor for him to me#like he continues this cycle of distancing himself from his roots before remembering over and over again through his actions#he leave so much in his wake that the courier ends up correcting or helping like in honest hearts and old world blues because he’s self#righteous in a subtle way even to himself that he believes he stand out of his one man rule when he does not play an active hand#saw a post talk about how you choose to continue moving through his story and can leave at any moment and this it is partially your fault#but what of the oath that is set before you and is forced to take that he set up#I do not have to walk it but when I do the steps are not my own but those taken for me#you have to go out of your way to change it which is not something he expects because he’s playing by a story he’s been perpetuating in his#head about you two and the effect one man has when he’s continually been that one man more so than you as many of his actions directly lead#to the one you go through also the irony in the flag he continues to bear being the real reason he has no home#like he reps it when the package is likely enclave and thus use the same symbol#also still can’t get over how anyone could have delivered the package and he tries so hard to act like it was the couriers destiny or fate#when this was the one case of chance and that once man was likely a enclave engineer and how it’s really is never one man#it the process and he’s so annoying about it like he’s a cool character but if you don’t believe in his philosophy or already went through#these ideas cause they are very common talking points in poc especially BIPOC spaces he’s just old hashings and stunted#fallout#fallout new vegas#Ulysses you upset me but I’m like I feel you could be better if you weren’t so incessant#I don’t think I ever want to make a serious post stating this about him just because I’d start yapping and it’d never get finished#ulysses fnv#fnv ulysses#lonesome road

Sorry for the long hiatus, I needed to take some time to figure myself out. As it turns out, I’m still more aro than I thought, and still just as confused.
#in a relationship#and now it feels more like i’m just enjoying the gestures of doing things#for my partner#if that makes sense#i still really like them#and i still have a crush#but im still aro#it’s weird and very confusing#i believe that i’m partially ace as well#aro problems#once you’re aro you never go back I guess#our relationship definitely defies the norms allos have as my partner is ace too#aro#aromantic#arospec

Lowkey hyperfixating now and I’ve come to the devastating conclusion that Jacob the main character of Water For Elephants… doesn’t really have a character arc
#or like#flaws#which is#bad?#like oh no that’s why every other character feels so much more 3 dimensional than him oops#so that puts a damper on my general opinion of the show#like oh no the book is missing the arc for its main character#I do wonder now if he had more of an arc in the book or the movie#but like#oh no the main character doesn’t have any character flaws#and like all the other characters are great marlena and august and fantastic#jacob is. a guy. he’s polish and he’s a vet and he’s sad. though honestly the sadness could have been more integrated into his character#like all the other characters got arcs at least a little#but jacob doesn’t really change throughout the story#which makes sense as to my thoughts yesterday that his and August’s relationship was under developed partially bc we really didn’t get#enough time seeing august actually coming to like jacob before he decides they’re besties nowbut also bc jacob is not very developed#in general#no actually he does have one flaw I can think of and that’s being Really Bad at pretending he and Marlena are not totally in love with each#other but that’s not like something he has to overcome it just kind of makes him look stupid cause the goal is not ‘get better at hiding#his feelings’ It’s ultimately ‘get away from august’ which like maybe that gets in the way of it but he doesn’t ever overcome his kinda#stupidity bc it’s not actually that plot relevant it just makes him seem annoying when he does that#I think I was too harsh in my opinion of grant gustin as jacob bc I’ve now realized it’s also the book’s fault#I’m hyperfixating and whenever I see a show I always have a lot of thoughts and now I’m hyperfixating in said show#still absolutely incredible though it’s definitely a new favorite but that part could be better#water for elephants#w4e#water for elephants musical#the heir speaks

i think i have not had many substantial observations about worm in my liveblogs despite being 3/4 of the way through because my main goal thus far has not been to experience worm, or even necessarily enjoy worm, but to finish worm. so i have decided there is only one way to solve this problem. once i finish worm i am going to start over and read worm all over again
#half joking (?)#for my followers who still have no idea what worm is it’s a 1.7 million word long web serial. so that’s the punchline here#i don’t know if i will actually do that because i miss reading other things#but i AM seriously considering it. a more intentional and thoughtful read#not that i’m not enjoying worn (i am! very much!) i just feel like my brain has been partially turned off lmao#i’m reading it with the mindset with which i would read. like. naruto or something.#which is probably doing the book a disservice but at this point i am committed to experiencing the rest of it in this way#to be fair i also have no fucking clue where this is going. at all.#should i start posting my stupid predictions that would be fun right#i feel like i’m always too afraid to look like an idiot when i’m liveblogging when in fact the most fun part of watching a liveblog is#seeing your friend be wildly wrong about everything judgement free#worm liveblogging#frogs.txt

SURPRISE. POST IS NOT OVER. POST IS ALIVE AND CONNYTINUING BABY.
ok so my brain doesn’t work. but sometimes i forget how much it REALLY DOES NOT WORK.
so i have pretty severe delusions right, re my last three posts slash one long tirade post. tell me why. tell me why
My brain, KNOWING IT DOES NOT WORK, will still believe the DUMBEST THINGS. like hmm, which is more reasonable and more likely to be true….everyone i love has died overnight, and i can sense it due to my secret magical abilities slash ultrapowerful intuition that is aligned exclusively to bad things, and there are also living creatures inside all of my walls, and also the moon is not real, and also there are secret invisible people looking into my window but i am just hallucinating them into being invisible, and also i am completely immortal? OR, is it more likely that my brain which has been PROVEN TO NOT WORK, is, perhaps, Not Thinking Entirely True Thought.
And i will without a SHADOW OF A DOUBT be like the first one. The first one Obviously. all my loved ones are dead and i am a secret magic death detector fairy. With secret magic powers. also eyeballs aren’t real. so. you should probably do something about the things in your face.
and i will genuinely be like YES BRAIN! YOU BEAUTIFUL GENIUS! YOU’VE UNCOVERED IT! ALL THAT WAS ONCE HIDDEN HAS BEEN REVEALED TO ME! I HOLD ALL OF THE KNOWLEDGE IN THE WORLD IN MY PALM! WOW I AM SO SMART CAN’T BELIEVE I FIGURED ALL THAT OUT. OMNISCIENCE IS A WILD THING HUH. ok now i will have a Panic Attack :) and a Pseudo-Seizure. like sane not-crazy people do!
#delusions#psychosis#I mean maybe not psychosis#i’m actually not sure why i’m like this#it’s partially the bpd but like#I feel like delusions at this depth and complexity might not be entirely caused by bpd?#Not really up to rational thought right now#as an hour ago i was still convincing myself that the moon was real#so.#yeah#mentally ill#delusions of grandeur#paranoid ideation#bpd#crazy people ily can i get a hell yeah

not feeling the new season of The Boys if im honest
#I think at least partially for me it’s that I’ll never truly love it#because I first watched it when we were at my grandparents’ house for my grandpa’s funeral in 2021#like it doesn’t bother me so much? I’m not triggered by a flood of sad memories every time I watch it or anything like that#but also it feels like an original sin for the thing#still yeah. feels like the show is going in circles and the circle is getting kind of boring

i just loved that the writers were like mark of cain dean slowly becomes more and more barbaric and inhuman as he can’t control this primordial, gaping wound in the form of an already healed over scar that has been borne by the devil himself and is in fact what made him the devil and therefore will make dean long and lust after maiming and ultimately murdering people with an urge stronger than any love or passion or resolution he’s ever experienced in his life And Also He’s A Huge Misogynist
well. TO BE FAIR. you have just kind of described dean when he is normal also.
#this is dean winchester we are talking about. on the ‘we hate women’ show.#god I feel like I’m gonna get to the Mark in my rewatch and the hype will have built it up too much#the mark in my head is so cool you guys have no idea because I never talk about it but trust me it is#I think I like. barely scraped a mention of it in that one Lucifer/Raphael fic and another time in a 3 sentence fic#murder death kill drive is fine but I think the mark should fuck up ur thinking even more. hallucifer 2 this time with God’s evil sister#slowly trying to eat your soul from the inside. amplifying anger for anyone sure but playing to the worst parts of someone mostly#Dean is angry but why enhance his anger when you can enhance his paranoia. his abandonment issues. his need for control. and make those the#reasons for him to lash out and kill people. I mean the show never fucking settled on if the mark actually corrupted someone into something#that they aren’t or just revealed what was already there. I felt it wanted to have both. to say to Lucifer ‘you were always sick’ and to#Dean ‘well we can fix you’ but no fuck that let’s lean hard into the revealing what’s there already aspect#I think partially I’m also still just mad about the demon origins retcon but shhhh whatever whatever#anyway. sorry for rambling anon. you are very funny. I chuckled.#ask#spn#dean winchester

Personally I think the little phenomenon w/ Johnny Whitney writing a just genuinely sort of devastating song once per every record or so (or twice! take, well, Take Me to the Sea 4 example. actually three times maybe. talking about specifically georgia + my organ sounds like… here and also bonetrees and a broken heart a little. also also As Brass And Satin just feels utterly melancholic in its near entirety) is that he just wakes up face down covered in blood in the studio, his own or someone else’s he can’t tell, shaking and grasping some shoddily scrawled out lyrics on a rlly very old piece of paper. The rest of the band might be like “johnny what the fuck happened” and he just springs 2 his feet like “oh haha nothing :> im fine don’t worry. nothing happened!!!!!!! anyways i have this cool new idea 4 a song wanna hear” and any time anyone tries 2 ask about it he immediately dodges the question and moves on2 a diff topic. He can explain what it’s about, but any time someone asks about the inspiration he gets nervous and is like “ohhh ummm. I 4got! Any other song though lol” and doesn’t wait 4 an answer. that’s just a theory though a Seattle theory
#evil neighing compilation#only exceptions I can think of r like… March on electric children and the rlly early bbs stuff. not vade though that stuffs filled w/#inexplicable sadness#I can’t say much regarding hologram jams or soiled life since I haven’t lsitened 2 them in full#‘r you 4 real saying that this adultery has a devastating song on there’ yes I am in fact! im singling out time for tenderness here. what#the hell happened 2 them when they were like 17-19 (that’s my guess 4 the age range anywho) 2 write that. is it just me who feels like that#about time for tenderness or#crimes. doesn’t make me feel sad per se. but the title track and beautiful horses I just. understand So Much it gets 2 me rlly bad#bpib should be obvious. the shame. but also every breath is a bomb once you know the context of who it was partially written about#especially Jordan’s part :-(#young machetes… actually not giant swan or street wars/exotic foxholes 4 me though I suppose I get the sense that I’m supposed 2 feel sad#about them#it’s camouflage camouflage 4 me!#what else what else. oh yeah Johnnys solo stuff. that entire little acoustic mixtape thingy is very sad feeling 2 me in some way#but esepcially at the end of the road there’s a sapphire pit. genuinely made me bawl my eyes out the other night. jfc it’s gr8 but it makes#me feel a little sick 2 my stomach sad#OH MY GOD I 4GOT. NEON BLONDE LOL#that’s also a p obvious choice. chandeliers and vines#it’s a sort of sarcastic song one could suppose. that’s true 4 a lot of Whitney’s work (especially in tbb though Tbf)#still sort of gets 2 me#ya know#done tags rambling my bad

Me, yesterday, 5:30 PM: wow I’m honestly doing so great at my adult tasks; I’ve gotten some homework done, I went grocery shopping, my laundry is almost dry. I spent so many spoons and I barely feel tired! Maybe I’m finally fully recovering from burnout!
Me, yesterday, 6:00 PM: oh.
#turns out that I was not drawing from an unlimited spoon supply when I spent spoons so fast#and instead was overdrawing#because at 5:59 I thought ‘oh you know I’m a bit tired I should lay down’#and then spent almost six hours in Nap Hell as I laid down too tired to get up and take my sleep meds#but also not really sleeping consistently. like dozing except I didn’t want to.#woke up ~11:50 and apparently sent some very misspelled messages to my friends#took sleep meds. and then passed out until morning.#so… I’ve learned something here. such as ‘even if you feel fine. you know you’re spending too many spoons. slow down.’#I’m gonna try to go to bed early tonight too#and just. rest. bc I know Thursday is going to be a lot for me bc of my ASL class.#just gotta get these labs done first#the exhaustion is partially also my fault bc instead of going to bed after getting home from the airport#I did in fact go straight to DND and played until midnight because DND is Monday nights now.#but in my defense. I had napped on the plane. so I didn’t feel v tired.#but yeah I shouldn’t have done that bc that meant I was operating on a Significant Sleep Deficit yesterday and still had a lot of tasks#that absolutely could not wait. I needed food bc I didn’t have any in the house and needed laundry bc all my wearable clothes were dirty.#and I’d been in class since 9:30AM and went straight to the store from my last class and then straight to laundry after putting away grifos#and STILL FORGOT TO GET GAS#it’s fine I’ll get some today after chemistry or smth on the way home

I used to love to dance and I lowkey still do, but I feel like I’m somehow even more in my head now than I used to be because I also find it so cringe and it doesn’t make sense. Like? What do you mean I have to do this in front of other people when I go out??? Or when I’m at home and see some good choreo online, thinking about actually starting and stopping the video to learn the moves and putting in the effort to practice them alone is so 🤢😬😖🫣
#why am I like this#idk#I don’t feel this way when I see other people dance#I actually went out with some friends a couple of weeks ago and really enjoyed seeing everybody else have a good time#esp bc the music was good#and I had a good time too#I did dance a bit but I still felt a little insecure#maybe it’s partially due to changes in my appearance and how negative I feel about them#but I don’t think that’s the only thing#I think I’ve always been a bit more reserved or even shy when it comes to things like this#but again I don’t really understand it because I do wanna have a good time and I do enjoy dancing#whatever idek why I’m writing all this#I’ll probably cringe about this later too and end up deleting it lmao#maybe I should get a diary 💀

You know sometimes I feel like I’m just not good at drawing Cookie Run OCs, and maybe I should stop
Like there’s just some quality I’m missing, and I can’t quite attain that quality to make them proper good. I think it’s that I don’t tie the designs back into the ingredient as well as I can, though there might be another aspect I’m missing, particularly in the outfit department
Like I enjoy making them, but I see other good OC designs, and they have that quality to them, something that makes them interesting and like they’d properly fit in as a proper Cookie Run design, that I feel like I just don’t have
#I don’t know#I’ve been playing Stardew on my TV for a couple hours and it’s hurting my eyes/brain somewhat#so maybe it’s the mild headache#but it’s still something I feel#I don’t know how to explain that missing quality I feel#other than maybe like “the sauce”#this also partially came about bc I’m designing that Oatmeal character#and I’m not sure I like how she’s turning out#cookie run#cookie run oc#art struggles

comfy and relaxed in bed…. holy shit
#marzi speaks#aside from the morning breakdown today has actually been an easier steroids day#partially bc i told myself it was time to give myself a break over it#but rn i’m in bed and i’m sleepy and i’m comfortable. i’m still a little restless#but my body doesn’t feel like it’s buzzing. i’m like physically relaxing a little#the world can be so beautiful
