#I would like to not starve to death actually

[kaliina-catoe-blog]

No. I hate this take, and I'm sorry to be adding to someone else's post to say it because I genuinely don't want to send hate to OP. But I am so so tired of this HORRIBLE take about Tim. It's completely ridiculous to me to think that Tim Drake is in any way a child who had a normal childhood. "I went to the circus-" Fucking stop. Stop.

Tim Drake, at the ripe old age of TODDLER watched his two heroes fall to their extremely graphic and painful deaths. In front of their child, who we know for sure would have been screaming and crying if not vomiting at the scene. Their child who, earlier that same night, had been happily taking pictures with Tim and treating him so kindly.

Tim would be fucking RUINED just from that alone.

But, adding to that, he also was not giver proper adult supervision for literally almost his entire life before joining the Waynes. By proper, I mean actual real child care. Not school, not just the occasional rotation of nannies he's depicted as having had. Real, actual, care. He was starved for touch and attention and love for years, God knows he wasn't given any therapy after witnessing the death of the Graysons either. Homeboy had so much trauma and was so fucked up as a kid/teen he took to STALKING BATMAN for FUN.

I mean seriously???? Did we read the same character? Tim Drake has every reason to man to become a vigilante. And then? He figures out that Batman and Robin are his neighbors? Specifically that Dick Grayson is Robin? There was never anything that could have stopped Tim from being Robin even if Jason hadn't died.

And then he gets involved and his mom dies and his dad is severely hurt? Yeah. Why do people always insist he should be "normal" or "Okay" or some bullshit? He's a severely mentally ill teenager, and being Robin is one of few things that probably helps him not just go rogue and start fucking murdering people.

Again, do not send hate to OP. And this isn't to say OP is like. A bad fan or some shit. I'm just saying if you're going to talk about a character, you need to know them. And Tim is such an underrated and misunderstood character so it just makes my heart hurt to see people totally not get it.

Go follow OP tho and, give them love to make up for my rant here.

Especially Tim. Barbara at least had the excuse of traumatizing parental death, Tim's backstory? "I went to the circus once when I was three. Also my parents should prbly have gotten a divorce. I attended a lot of boarding schools."

I wrote my bucktommy stargazing as an astroid is set to hit fic. There's no actual death here, but the topic is discussed.

"So, how's it happen?"

"What?"

Tommy gave Evan a pointed look. "How's it happen?" he repeated.

Buck looked away from him, opting to stare up at the sky. "I don't know," he answered. "I didn't look it up."

"Really, Evan?" Tommy sat up on his elbows, the ridges from the bed of his truck digging into his skin uncomfortably. "Our last night on Earth and you're gonna lie to me?"

Buck rolled his eyes, but opened up his hand and waited. Tommy took it without hesitation, and laid back down. "Okay, obviously I looked it up."

"Obviously."

"It's not pretty."

"Didn't think it would be. Death by asteroid doesn't exactly sound like an easy way to go."

"Well," Buck scooted closer to Tommy, shivering slightly, "I don't think we'll suffer or anything. It's just, wh- when it hits, we- we'll most likely die from the shockwaves. The, uh, the winds will be strong enough to flatten the city. We're," he paused to clear his throat. "We're so close to the approximated impact site that our, um, our internal organs will probably rupture because of the pressure."

"Yikes," Tommy deadpanned. "Really not pretty."

"Yeah, really not pretty."

They kept staring up at the sky. For the moment, it was quiet. It looked just like any other night. Stars shining brightly, crickets chirping, trees swaying slightly in the light wind.

They had found a spot in the middle of nowhere, somewhere along the highway. Everyone had tried to escape. Get as far away from Los Angeles as possible. There was a chance, on the east coast. Instead of dying instantly, they might get a few more months before the food supply ran out and they starved.

Buck and Tommy had stayed behind until the LAFD gave up. 911 disconnected for good and everyone was told they were on their own.

They escaped the chaos of the city, but couldn't get too far. Too many cars, too many blocked roads, not enough gas, and not enough time.

"There's still a chance," Buck whispered in the space between them. "Karen's still working. There's a chance."

Tommy nodded. "Maybe," he replied. But he knew the odds. They both did. He turned onto his side, wrapping an arm around Buck's waist. "I'm okay though," he assured Buck. "If it doesn't work out with Karen, I- I'm okay. I mean, I'd rather my organs not rupture," he added, getting a laugh out of Buck, "but everything else. Being with you. I'm okay."

Buck smiled. He curled onto his side, bringing a hand to Tommy's cheek and pressing a kiss against his lips. For the first time in his life, he felt nothing but peace. "Yeah," he agreed. "I'm okay too."

Whump Intro!

Hello there! My name is Harley (she/her), your new local whump writer, exclusively on tumblr, soon coming to ao3 :D I've liked whump since I could remember and way before I even had a name to put to it, and I have been lurking here for a while now. But the time for crawling out of the shadows and writing my own things has come!

I'm doing the Bad Things Happen Bingo and so far, I have one prompt fill up, and three more written ones sitting in my folder and waiting to be edited. Tags for it: #my writing #bad things happen bingo

I am still really new to actually interacting in this community and writing things, so I don't really know exactly how things work but hopefully this will turn out well :) --- Some tropes I love:

- Lady whump (I really, really just want some women in my fiction) - Hurt AND comfort - Fantasy / medieval whump - Nonhuman characters - Defiant whumpees - Touch-starved - Torture; whipping, beating, stress positions, etc. Tropes that are meh / I don't really like:

- BBU (occasionally I do circle back to it, but it's not really my thing) - Hurt no comfort - Medical whump - Lab whump - Carewhumper Squicks:

- Extreme gore - Eye / teeth injuries ---

Other things I'm working on:

I also have 30k of a completed series sitting in my folder though it needs a LOT of editing before I post it. Here's a quick overview of it for those interested:

A thief and assassin unable to leave her occupation and bound to the whims of a cruel and powerful earl, is captured after she is given false information. To her surprise, she is freed though the consequences for failing her mission soon prove to be almost worse than death. In the end, the person who saves her is one who she had expected would be amongst those cheering the most for her death.

If anyone would like to beta for this or knows where I could find a beta, I'd really appreciate it! I'm terrible at editing and a second perspective would be really nice.

Ok i was really expecting to be jumped for saying starscream is an abuse victim but I wasn’t (maybe because I saw other ppl on tik tok saying exactly what I was saying and getting jumped but that’s on me for assuming ppl on here would be like the average tik tok user)

So let’s like actually talk about it because I’m tired of pretending that Starscream isn’t a victim of Megatrons abuse.

Content warning for physical, verbal, and mental abuse.

I see a lot of people trying to explain Star is a victim of abuse in g1 and some other versions of the transformers but a lot of people tend to excuse Megatron or say Star isn’t a victim.

The most common argument I see against Star not being a victim is just straight up people excusing abuse because Star isn’t a trembling unresponsive victim.

“Oh but he tries to kill Megatron!”

“He’s literally being a traitor.”

“He is literally trying to take over Megatron.”

That is just straight up excusing abuse because a victim reacts.

Star is a complex character that is abused continuously by Megatron. Megatron often excuses his own behavior the same way many people do.

“He deserves it for trying to usurp Megatron.”

I think the best example of how Megatron is fine with keeping him there for his own punching bag is the spotlight comic.

Starscream is leader after Megatron is severely hurt but unfortunately the Cons are starving due to a shortage in energon. Starscream tries to stop them from cannibalism but due to the lack of respect and hungry they don’t listen. After Megatron is brought back he is horrified at the state of the Cons. Star is extremely traumatized from witnessing everything. He is also expecting to be hurt or beaten by Megatron. Megatron does hurt him but Star is begging for death. He wants to die he is suicidal. But all Megatron does is mock him, beat him and mock him more. He knows how much Star regrets everything, how much he knows he’ll be blamed and even blames himself yet Megatron still verbally and physically abuses him to teach him a lesson and to be an “example”.

Megatron can see how much Star regrets trying and still hurts him.

I find most of the “sympathetic” versions of Star is because Star just takes the abuse. But when he reacts or expresses a desire to get away from Megatron or tries killing Megatron then it’s “deserved”.

Loyalty shouldn’t be expected when you bully, abuse, and hurt someone over and over. Star is a power hungry character yes. But so is Megatron. So why is it sympathetic or ok or cool for Megatron to be power hungry and hurt people but it’s “deserved” when Star does it due to his abuse?

That’s all I’m asking.

What is actually scary about Horror is how real it is. Physical damage to the skull can in fact cause brain damage though they are rare. Despite this Psychosis is not something that one can control and sometimes it can't be reasoned with or defeated with logic. Many times people with this diagnosis/symptom have expressed that their greatest fear is to be stuck in that state of mind.

Psychosis can and has increased paranoia and fear in those that have it depending on what they're dealing with.

From delusions to being in a relationship with someone despite not having any evidence of it. Delusions of being watched by a government entity. Delusions of being the next coming of Jesus Christ. Delusions comes with the territory and it's not able to be controlled.

Then there is the fact that it comes with disorganized thought and speech patterns. Along with the fact that many also hear and see hallucinations.

Add all of this to a character being starved to death and having PTSD from literally having his skull caved in by someone he had trusted and you have someone who has every right to be paranoid and mistrustful.

Psychosis is treatable but the fact that the entire civilization of Horrortale is falling apart, that is the last thing to be concerned about. How can you help someone if you're too busy worrying about whether or not you can eat today?

To give you an example, here in New Mexico there was a case of a man who had extremely bad Schizophrenia, he knew if he didn't get his medication there was a high likelihood he'd become violent.

He pleaded with his provider that he needs his medication, but they denied him repeatedly.

He warned them that something bad would happen if he didn't. They still refused.

Not long afterwards, maybe a day or so, he shot up a place and killed a few people. He is now at a psychiatric ward but now has his medication regularly. Many of the people who work there have stated he is a very nice person and seems completely harmless. Hell I'd argue he is. But to everyone even the courts still view him as a monster. A villain. A murderer.

He warned everyone that if he didn't get his medication, someone would likely get hurt. And many did. But meeting him you'll see a man who just likes good vibes and a game of chess.

Psychosis can be dangerous if not treated. Psychosis can be dangerous in certain situations. But it is mostly dangerous to the person who has it because of where the mind can go. It is all on a case by case basis. I only give you this story to show you just how real things can get.

I don't know the man personally and I don't remember if he was a veteran or someone who had a bad childhood that caused his mind to shatter to such a point or if he just did a fuck ton of shrooms and that was what permanently triggered that part of his brain. What I do know is that Horror as a character falls into that same tragedy.

He is just a man who needs some food, a stable environment, a therapist, and some medication.

As someone who has a prescription for my depression, anxiety, and PTSD I can confirm that mental health is mostly dangerous towards the person who is suffering from it and without my prescription I wouldn't be here for a variety of reasons.

The external victims are just collateral. Aliza is collateral.

So yeah. Frisk is the fucking villain of the story of Horrortale. Fuck you.

*gets booed off stage and has a chair thrown at me.*

*stands up to podium and taps mic* i don't like when people lean into the "scary" aspect of horror because they often treat him like he's just a rotting scary corpse and that his head injury makes him terrifying

*they boo me off stage and throw tomatoes* fuuuck.....

[meangreennunseen]

Was thinking about Primarchs (as usual) and how jacked they are and thus how fast their metabolism should be at burning the fat. Because let's be honest, none of them probs have time to hit a gym. That adonis build is genetic engineering at work.

And with extremely fast metabolism, Primarchs most likely had to deal with another issue, that being of how much food they actually needed to sustain themselves.

Yeah I know Astartes have ability to slow their metabolism down or something similiar and thus they can go without food for weeks and months, and I feel Primarch most likely can do that too, but the more I think about Primarchs growing up on random worlds with whole burden of being different than ordinary people and that affected them psychologically, and I just came with conclusion that many of Primarchs actually tried to eat as little as possible, starving themselves, because many of them would just feel guilty consuming food rations which could feed like 5-7 people in one sitting, even if they kinda needed that. Yes, even noble raised Primarchs would feel guilty eating so much, even if food is not an issue, but it's even painful if you think about Primarchs raised in poorer conditions, where food was a valuable commodity. You just know they starved themselves, so humans around them wouldn't have to....

kinda frustrating how we've spent the last few months acknowledging how a lot of well intentioned but guilt trippy social justice posts are like specifically designed to worm into ocd ppls brains and then now every single post abt palestine is "i dont care how bad your mental health is, i dont care how bad looking at all this makes you feel, if you don't read every single post you see on this topic in full you are a horrible person and directly contributing to their deaths. 'waaaah my mental health' well at least youre not being bombed, did you think about that??" and its like. i absolutely get where youre coming from but you dont get to complain that guilt tripping is bad then turn around and use it anyways because you think the cause youre using it for is worthwhile. like. everyone thinks the cause theyre using it for is worthwhile, thats why theyre using it. but its still a shit way to do it

[abyssembraced]

so for that meme. ghost reaching the abyss for the first time.

Send me a quote/scene from my muse’s canon, and I'll explain what went through their head during it! (Accepting!)

The door before them crumbled into particles of light. With the mark of King seared into them, no secrets could remain sealed.

A platform ahead, ending in open air. They stepped onto it. Cold metal, unlike the fossils and stone that preceded it. They looked down.

Dark. Their pale shell the only illumination offered. Deep. Couldn't see the bottom.

A calling, below.

They descended.

Platform to platform. Into the depths. Pits of spikes. Broken shells of fallen bugs. Shadow Creepers crawling about (harmless. Source of SOUL if necessary). Corpses increasing in number.

...Familiar.

They've been here before. But when? They didn't know. Yet the calling in their core persisted. They continued on.

Misjudged distance. Missed the next platform. Desperate flutter of wings. Reaching out with claw. Missed. Falling. Familiar.

Impact with ground. Floor of shells. Rise. Careful not to stumble. Familiar.

A shadow emerged from the depths. Living darkness took shape into a creature.

Familiar. Familiar.

So, so familiar. They knew this being, this darkness. Why this was, they did not know (could not recall?), yet it was an undeniable fact, the truth of which they felt with utmost certainty. This being and them, they were... Alike.

There was a word to be used. They did not know it.

They had felt like this once before, had they not? That broken, Infected vessel of Lightseeds had evoked a similar sensation of Alikeness. Albeit lesser, far lesser, than what they felt toward the shadow before them now. Obscured by the Infection back then, perhaps, or for some other reason.

They stood still, watching, as the other, in turn, took proper notice of them. As it floated toward them, drawing ever closer.

PAIN.

An explosion upon their shell, their insides, their mind. Emotions transferred to them from the Alike. Feelings of... Bad. They did not know the words.

Enemy. Danger. Fight back.

The fighting stopped. The being's form split apart by their blade, curling into an orb of shadow once more. Returning to the earth.

Silence.

...

Their nail is returned to their back.

A calling, below. Deeper. Yet there was no distance left to fall. Perhaps, if they pressed onward, some tunnels would lead them further down.

They continued on.

Cannot stand these freshly turned vamplings pretending like it doesn't matter if you're drinking virgin blood or not. As if unpure blood doesn't literally weaken vampiric powers 🙄

🦇 baby-batz follow

Wait omg is this true??? Is this why I've been having so much trouble staying in bat form??

🧛‍♂️ dr.acula follow

If you can't control wolves with your mind or turn into ominous mist it's literally because nonvirgin blood is basically poison. Like yeah you can drink it if you're starving but why would you do that to yourself intentionally?

🦷 fang-fag follow

op doesn't know what they're talking about. The virgin blood thing was made up by a bunch of victorian prudes who only hated sex more than they hated women. the fact that op (who had already been a vampire for decades when the myth was started, if you believe their bio) should be Very telling.

People will try and tell you that there's something wrong with you if you vampiric powers don't come naturally to you, but it's literally fine. You have all the time in the world to figure yourself out. Literally. You'll get there I promise

But what about the blood types thing? Couldn't this be like the blood types thing?

🦷 fang-fag follow

For the last time, feeling better after drinking blood of the same type (or compatable with the type) you had in life is a well documented scientific fact with actual evidence behind it. We know blood types are real and affect blood. Virginity is a made up social construct, which has absolutely no impact on blood at all. Red blood cells can't tell if you've fucked or not
