Top 50 OTPs of All Time ☆ #44. Naomi Campbell & Emily Fitch

"I’ve loved you since the first time I saw you. I think I was twelve. It took me three years to pluck up the courage to speak to you. And I was so scared about the way I felt, you know, loving a girl, so I learned how to become a sarcastic bitch to kind of feel normal. I screwed guys to make it go away, but it didn’t work. When we got together it scared the shit out of me. Because you were the one person who could ruin my life. I pushed you away. I made you think things were your fault. But really I was just terrified of pain. I screwed that girl, Sophia, to kind of spite you for having that hold on me, and I’m a total fucking coward because I got these… these tickets to Goa for us three months ago, but I, I couldn’t stand… I didn’t want to be a slave to the way I feel about you. Can you understand? You were trying to punish me back and it’s horrible. It’s so horrible, because really, I’d die for you. I love you. I love you so much it’s killing me."

reunited - kindsummer

sequel to repressed. -- Buck knew that he smelled differently now that he was claimed because of the way that Crosby looked at him. Though Rosie hadn’t known him long before he crashed, he knew to keep their amount of touch to the handshake only, respectful of a claim staked by a man who would most likely die before the end of the war. Their reactions only served as reminders that Buck was missing half of himself, separated by an army and several borders.

twitter has poisoned this fandom i fear ... we used to be a community..

There is something that I can’t understand and will never understand about fandom “culture”

Why EVERYTHING (or a lot of things) need to be canon or acknowledged by the actors/directors/producers to be accepted by the fandom? In specific ships?

And why when a “ship” (two characters, really) have more screentime than others/other characters aren’t in the picture anymore, people take that as a victory as see their ship as more valid and “actually canon”? And mock/harass others for it?

Also there is this thing people have been doing a lot too: Thats calling everyone that doesn’t like the ship you like names (and also calling them terms that before actually meant something awful but nowadays can be said for simply tagging the incorrect ship in a fucking post)

Canon isn’t always the norm here kid. At least when it relates to ships and scenarios. (Bc if we’re talking about characterization… yes it needs to be canon in a sense or we’re writing/making ocs out of canon characters)

Most of the more popular ships will never be canon and have never been, especially the gay ones. (See Drarry, Narusasu, Frodo/Sam, Johnlock, etc, etc)

So why suddenly we care so much about what NEEDS to be canon or not?

Why people NEED to see their ships be canon so badly?

Sure, I can be seen as a hypocrite because Ive been talking about Stucky a lot in the canon and what happened in EG, but they actually did that themselves. The directors talked about gay characters, the actors talked about Stucky. So actually it isn’t something ludicrous or anything. (I’ve never thought they would actually make the ship canon -bc that would be a big problem for them “how can you make Cap America gay!” And shit- but I thought they would at least make them still be friends or friendly or acknowledge the “bromance” and they just killed the friendship in one scene with the most ooc shit ever). In fact, I’m more annoyed by that. They assassinated Steve’s character and Bucky’s progress.

Nevermind…

Why people fight so much about ships and use terms that shouldn’t be brought into stupid shit like this?

Fandoms are supposed to be fun and to have discussions (in good faith) about the canon. What we like and what we don’t like about it.

Besides, a lot of current media are about stuff that’s been remade over and over again. So they have a lot of adaptations and you can pick and choose too, if you want.

And if you don’t like the canon? Easy! Do analysis, criticize it, write fics, do fanart, do creative shit or simply ignore it! No one is forcing you to keep on watching the show or the stuff you now hate/cant stand. That’s what Im doing at least.

Sure, I criticize some people and movies a lot and get actually annoyed by the disrespect towards/assassination of some characters, but at the end of the day I can only shrug and say “it is what it is” and leave it at that. (Meaning not giving them money for the new stuff/not watching nor caring about it and only acknowledging the old things I actually care about and like)

But I don’t insult or disrespect other people in fandom because of it. And also I don’t harass the directors or actors either, ffs.

Idk, Ive always been on the sidelines of the stuff I follow, I’ve never been on the thick of fandoms so maybe thats why I don’t understand.

And I’ve also not seen so many crazy shit (the most crazy stuff Ive seen is people calling others racists for tagging a ship incorrectly and also others inflating the tag of a ship in ao3 so their ship would be “the most popular” with most fics, in that fandom) because I actually curate what I see. I don’t like a ship? I mute, if I can’t stand a person or a ship? I block em. Simple and easy.

I’ve always drawn stuff for myself, read fics and made headcanons. Only recently I’ve been sharing stuff more openly, so maybe it’s that.

Idk.

I’m just tired of seeing discourse and people fighting over this stuff.

[hiorintruther]

Has anyone else here ever had a ship where for the longest time you were like “why the fuck would anyone ship that? It makes no sense!” only for the pieces to all fall into place suddenly and you’re left like “oh… oh… OH…”

I saw the sonic bisexual weed post and immediately thought of them

Junior: are you sure you didn’t bring the trans weed?

Axel: lmao what trans weed doesn’t exist what are you talking about

Later

Axel: wtf am I

Junior: I think I’m a boy lol

[lunaticpsyker08]

draws that fit the moment...HEH this Belial just wants to gib smooches-

lucilius is finally playable in gbfvr. When lucilius touches his own neck tho. wow. amazing. note: I feel like belial licking lucilius's neck would defiantly fall under mature- gonna censor it, never used tumblr's censorship before.

How do i navigate your tags? How to you categorize them? I feel like im missing lots of your posts bc tumblr doesn’t let you see them all! Tysm i will be reading every post you every made for motogp eventually, but it might take me years lol

haha. oh god. this is one of those tagging systems that really only exists for one person, to serve the dual purpose of a) not having things show up in search tags and b) letting me quickly find posts. which means it's become an organisational system that is probably barely comprehensible to anyone else but. well. if you really want to know

#// - original posts

#batsplat responds - ... guess

#brr brr - anything related to motogp

#current tag - anything related to current motogp (liberally defined as anything post 2019) or current riders (... kind of, for marc and marc alone it's only the more recent stuff)

#curse tag - anything related to sete and his rivalry with valentino

#idol tag - most of the stuff related to the marc/valentino rivalry

#wall tag - anything related to the jorge/valentino rivalry

#morale tag - functionally a jorge/dovi rivalry tag that will probably be used for anything dovi-related + 2006-07 250cc

#heretic tag - anything related to casey and his rivalry with valentino

#clown tag - stuff related to valentino, usually from the earlier years, that doesn't quite fit into the other categories (hasn't been completely back-tagged)

#alien tag - a catch-all tag for stuff not adequately covered by the other alien-related tags, plus stuff that's about all of them

#race rec tag - what it says on the tin. probably the most functional tag since it IS actually supposed to be useful

#spec tag - anything more speculative, left field

#comp tag - any post that's just providing a bunch of sources together. web weaving without the aesthetic sensibility

#2746 text posts - enough of those saved up that I'll continue posting them on a weekly basis

so. yeah. also, all of this is just for original posts - for reblogs, it's generally initials and numbers. at some point I might also make a stats specific tag and some kind of misc tag. I should probably also have a tennis tag. it's all less designed for scrolling purposes and more 'letting me find something quickly using the blog archive function'. probably the best scrolling experience is the casey tag, which is also what my browser autocompletes when I start typing in the word 'archive' lol. obviously I'm also rather partial to the sete tag since that's probably been my biggest #impact (read: getting three people invested) on this community

shipping characters is so insane to me like. yes Sometimes there are potential rly interesting romantic relationships and there's romance that explores them further and adds to the story but. 90% of the time when romance is added everything else just kind of Disappears. no thought abt character flaws or growth or the absolutely FASCINATING dynamics so many of them hold with absolutely no romance necessary it all just poofs out of existence in favor of focusing on the romance. even in stories where romance is implied or outright stated and the characters are incredible and have this amazing dynamic with each other ppl will tunnel vision on the Romance Specifically and leave everything else behind it's insane 😭😭😭
