#I’m in MegaFan Mode

[justamegafan]

I just got into the Tsum Event…

And I’ve been doing nothing but squeal and scream over how cute and precious these Tsums are!!!!

I want there to be a Part 2 of this Event!!! And if I counted right, there are exactly SEVEN Tsums, so that means there will HAVE to be ANOTHER 7 Tsums if they’re going to have a Part 2 of this Event!

Though, I mostly just want a Malleus Tsum, but plot-twist, Malleus Tsum keeps following Yuu/Us around and refuses to leave Yuu/Us alone (And Sebek is struggling with the idea of a Tsum Malleus 😂)

But like, Tsum Malleus has the same level of strength and power as Malleus, but because of his little body, no one could even think of it (And he’s very happy when he’s around Gargoyle’s, but shows annoyance when someone mistakes a Statue for a Gargoyle) and while everyone is freaking out where Tsum Malleus is since he can cause SO much destruction if angered, he’s just been Chilling with Yuu in Ramshackle the entire time (He’s just snuggled up on Yuu’s shoulder or head looking very happy)

As for the other Tsums, I want Idia (My beloved), so Tsum Idia and Idia are just panicking (Until they find common ground with video game and technology), Deuce (‘Shy’, until proven otherwise), Ruggie (He can steal things SO easily with how small and fast he is, he can’t get caught), Azul (Azul finally meets his match), Kalim (Sunshine with Lil’ Sunshine, Jamil is just TIRED) and either Lilia or Silver (Tsum Lilia is just pranking left and right and a cooking MENACE while Tsum Silver is just napping on Silver or by himself with animals surrounding him/them)

That’s enough of my rant, I just can’t help but find how CUTE (Handsome for Epel) these Tsums are, it’s going to be a literal CRIME if a Second Part isn’t going to be made

LOOK AT THEM!!! LOOK AT THEM!!! WHY ARE THEY SO CUTE?!?!?! 😫🥹🥰💞

20.

I require a fic where Sukuna is a popular streamer playing bloody gory first person shooter games and other shit and I want Megumi to be a Stardew Valley/Animal Crossing gamer and they meet unrelated to streaming (Megumi doesn’t stream)

And they don’t know each other well (hookup) but when they attempt to start to getting to know each other Megumi’s like “I’m into video games” and Sukuna starts sweating and completely ghosts Megumi until he goes full stalker mode and realizes Megumi wouldn’t know who the hell he is online and isn’t a megafan or some shit cuz he plays Stardew Valley and wuteva but now Megumi is resistant to getting to know him because he lowkey started to get attached when Sukuna dropped him like that and so Sukuna’s like “I guess we can make an island together or something 🙄”

And now Sukuna’s discord sees Sukuna turn off his game activity like “Sukuna’s streaming Valorant but his game activity isn’t on?” (He forgot to turn it back on) and then his close friends see he’s played 40+ hours on Stardew that first week alone on Steam (he’s determined to fucking CRUSH skull cavern and bring home the loot for Megumi).

And then I want him to finally one day stream Stardew Valley and it’s the most entertaining thing his followers have ever seen (but he’s still got haters insulting him in chat and dropping his stream to go to Twitter like “man fuck this guy he’s changed what happened to valorant??? I didn’t subscribe for this gay shit.”)

But under NO CIRCUMSTANCES is Megumi allowed on stream and NO ONE can know who Megumi is until one of Sukuna’s stalkers finds out and doxs Megumi’s address and so Megumi’s forced to impromptu move in with Sukuna and now Megumi’s on stream in the background gaming on his Switch so it backfired for the evil stalker fans LMAOOO

In order: P, Y, P, F, P, P

^_^

*squints* I think I see what you're doing here.... TBH this was a little delayed just because when I think of a random AU I tend to throw it onto Tumblr immediately, so I had to wait until new ones occurred to me. XD;;

P - Invent a random AU for any fandom (we always need more ideas)

Eula and Jean, role reversal. Not their backstories or families, but their positions in the Knights--possibly this AU is kicked off by some Lawrences conspiring with Eroch and Eula catching wind of it, and so she goes to Varka about the time he’s looking for someone to assign the investigation, and he sees it as a way to demonstrate her loyalty to Mondstadt. So she successfully roots out Eroch and his supporters and becomes Master of Knights, while Jean takes the captaincy of the Reconnaissance Company when it goes empty because someone has to do it, and then Varka assigns Eula as Acting Grand Master when he leaves. And while the Eroch investigation shored up Eula’s bona fides within the Knights, she’s still facing a lot of the resistance from Mondstadt’s civilian populace--that’s what’s interesting to me about this--and so the pressure the Fatui are exerting about the Knights not handling Dvalin at the start of the game is turned up so much higher.

Y - What are your secondhand fandoms (fandoms you aren’t in personally but are tangentially familiar with because your friends/people on your dash are in them)

Right now, probably the big ones are The Locked Tomb (glad folks are having fun! this one is especially fascinating to follow from the outside, so to speak, because I was a megafan of the author's Homestuck fanfic) and various Dimension 20 games? The Witcher was another big one for a while. And there's one person on my dash who's keeping me updated on the What We Do In The Shadows TV show entirely via gifsets.

P - Invent a random AU for any fandom (we always need more ideas)

Inspired by spoilers for Ballads and Brews: Andrius adopts Rosaria along with Razor, so she’s even more his brother. XD I’m thinking the bandits who took her from her village stumble into Wolvendom and run afoul of the wolves, and so Andrius ends up with two feral children at once. TBH given Rosaria’s existing Vision story, if the bandits run into the wolves when she’s very young she can easily just share Razor’s--the pack dies trying to save both of them from an Abyss mage, she still loses a quasi-parental figure in whichever were the parent wolves--or if they run into them much later, her bandit not-really-father dies defending her from the wolves.

F - What’s the longest you’ve ever been in a fandom

If primarily roleplaying OCs counts as being in a fandom, probably Dragonriders of Pern, which I've been RPing in since, uh... I first got Internet access in 1999, and I found the first RP forums probably a year after that.... Otherwise, if we're talking purely about reading/writing fic, probably Avatar: The Last Airbender, which I first read fic for shortly after it came out back in 2005, and last read fic for just last week.

No, wait, going by those standards, I was reading Star Trek novels as far back as 1995 at least, since I remember boxing some up for that move, and I was reading a Star Trek fic yesterday. XD Star Trek wins!

P - Invent a random AU for any fandom (we always need more ideas)

The AU, and I’m not sure if this is Ei/Sara, or Ei/Yae and Sara/Makoto, where Makoto doesn’t die. Which could go a lot of interesting ways for a lot of different characters and points of focus, but as the first sentence suggests, I am thinking about it from a Sara POV. As one of the Shogun’s foremost generals she is very aware that her Shogun seems to have two modes of being with differing behavior to fit each, and she is embarrassingly attracted to the Shogun in one of those modes, while not quite sure why the other mode does nothing for her (or why, in the other mode, she keeps getting subtle nudges encouraging her interest). Yae meanwhile is inevitably in the background laughing her ass off and sowing additional chaos.

P - Invent a random AU for any fandom (we always need more ideas)

...The one where Lisa doesn’t give up on her research and academic drive, just on the Academiya itself, and ends up acquiring a rich patron willing to provide her with a workspace, assistants, and funding, so long as these lines of research bear certain fruit. Which is to say, Lisa as Ningguang’s secret weapon, because I just persistently love the idea of those two in the same room.

[kitkatopinions]

Every ‘this was planned from the beginning’ from the RWBY writers/cast or the toxic megafans of the show just makes me doubt even more that MKEK ever had much plan.

I believe they had a concept, I believe they had a thought dump, and I believe they knew Salem and Oz were both immortal beings that had a long history together and that Ruby would have magical powers tied to her silver eyes. And that is it.

I would believe that Bumblebee was a concept that was floated, possibly by Blake or Yang’s VAs, but not taken very seriously until they realized it might be profitable to code them as gay without confirmation for years. I absolutely don’t believe that Bumblebee was always end game from the very start and was considered the plan throughout the whole of RWBY’s run time. I would believe that ‘Ironwood should be a bad guy maybe’ was floated near the start of his conception and that ‘Salem and Cinder don’t pay him much attention’ was stuck in their thought dump. I don’t believe that all throughout all their writing for Ironwood, they had a clear and well thought out plan of exactly what would happen with him or even that they intended throughout his writing that he would be bad the entire time. I would believe that they had a few things on the table for a long time, like ‘Atlas falling’ or ‘Emerald redemption possibly,’ that they considered doing at any point, but I seriously just can’t believe that these writers have had a clear, concise, well thought out plotline that they’ve kept in mind and followed throughout the whole of RWBY. I can’t believe it because things like the Maidens that are central to the plot of RWBY were late additions, because they didn’t have any clue what to do with the incredibly important to the plot Relics until they had to and fudged their way through it, because they had planned for volume eight to have Ruby actually be there in the Whale and fight Salem and then they just didn’t do that, because characters like Neo and Robyn were late additions, because there was no sign of Blake’s parents or Ilia’s existences until season four, and so on and so forth. It’s pretty freaking clear to me that these writers have been flying by the seat of their pants for a long time now.

And the funny thing is, people act like it’s some massive insult when we say that we don’t think there was a lot of planning involved in this show, but I consider it a much bigger insult to the writers to say that they’d planned everything from the start and were trying to keep it in mind the whole time while they wrote with a clear and detailed outline. I’m looking at badly painted pictures in one collection and going ‘well, they didn’t have a lot of time to make these that good, they painted them in a hurry,’ and someone is telling me ‘actually, they’ve been working on these paintings for years and every brushstroke was carefully planned.’ I think that RWBY isn’t well done. I’m not going to think it’s done any better if someone tells me that everything that I don’t like about it and everything bad about it was all something done on purpose that was planned from the very beginning. All it does is make me think the show is even worse and the writers are even worse.

On top of me not believing that the majority of RWBY was planned from the beginning, I don’t want to believe that the majority of RWBY was planned from the beginning. Because believe it or not, I’d actually like to enjoy some aspects of this show, and it’s much easier to do that if I think the writers were in ‘fly by the seat of our pants,’ ‘making this up as we go,’ ‘we don’t know how to paint but isn’t this pretty good for amateurs’  mode even if by now they should be better than that. It’s really hard to enjoy anything these writers do or any element of RWBY if I think the writers were in ‘aren’t we so great, look at our well thought out and meticulously planned finished product that went through all the extra spit and polish’ while I’m looking at a badly painted picture. Because that makes me think much less of the writers than I already do.
