#I’m still going strong with these asks

[hyperfixated-maybe]

oooh tlg ask time!!! :D

what do you think the outlanders would be like in a human au? i'm leaving this really broad so you can talk about anything ya want - what they look like, what they do, anything! :3

Hello Spinny!! Spins! The Spinniest Spinner!!!

woah I typed ‘spin’ so many times it doesn't even look like a real word anymore, lol. Anyway, about the outlanders!! I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about what would cause their conflicts with the Guard, and because I think of the Guard’s “protecting the circle of life” job to be almost like park rangers, so in this au the Outlanders are mostly…

…poachers!.

I mean if we think about it, most of the “bad guys” in this show only had crimes revolving around hunting. (and Scar, but we're ignoring him for now.)

All of the Tree of Life villains, (except Mama but shes also got drugs soooo yeah), Mpishi, Makucha in the Imaginary Okapi… and most of the Outlanders!

Kiburi and his float commit violations of fishing laws, taking in more fish than the legal limit, keeping undersized fish, or fishing restricted areas. As for what they look like, all of the crocs are Latino. I’m still deciding which Central American country their ancestors hail from. How they ended up in Africa is beyond me, lol. (Some are Afro-Latino perhaps? Idk.)

Janja and the hyenas are Black, and, obviously, take more than their fair share. (what they’ve got the tags for.) (This is all based off of the Massachusetts hunting system btw. Just writing what I know.) Again, they take prey that isn't legal, like young calves. There are also certain seasons for certain prey, which they disregard entirely.

J: “I'm hungry for zebra. C’mon fellas, lets go get some lunch.”

C (either one): “But Janja, zebra doesn’t open for another two weeks!”

J: “I know that already you furbrain, I just don’t care!”

The Jackals? Same thing as the hyenas, just less intense and also toss thievery into the mix.

The vultures? I don't think they actually committed any crimes… other than arson, LOL. Def white/British tho.

So, as protectors of the land and the wildlife on it, the Guard butts heads with the Outlanders quite a bit in this au.

Pretty much all of the Outlander dynamics are similar to what they were in the show. The Outlands itself is the poorest part of the general area, as well as having the highest crime rates. It’s hard for someone born in the Outlands to get out, and hard for Pridelanders to understand why anyone would want to stay there.

Being from the Outlands would come with a bad reputation, one that takes a lot to push past in order to make friends with a Pridelander, like we see in Never Judge a Hyena by its Spots. I think that prejudice would be a fun thing to explore.

Speaking of Jasiri and her clan, they're probably doing the best out of the Outland’s groups. I don't have a design for her yet, but I'm working on it.

its so hard to watch time pass when things like careers and assignments exist. what do you mean im supposed to take that seriously

[eebie]

i drew this for you

[kowwpow]

I’m gonna be out most of the day bc I’ll be helping my dad with a big shopping trip plus being out after, so I’m going to be super duper exhausted

I don’t do well in crowded or loud places in the slightest, I get woozy and tired and I feel miserable or like I’m gonna pass out, and if the shopping isn’t gonna make me wanna cry, the outing after will bc it’s gonna be packed with lots of noise and people

I don’t say this because I want to complain, I just wanna give a super quick warning that I might not be active tomorrow as well as today bc when I get exhausted, my mental health tends to decline as well ;-;

so- a bit of a warning that I may poof a bit (sorry! 😣)

vent in tags sorry

see I am very disjointed from a lot of nine/ten fandom discourse because I genuinely believe that in a different world where space boy was not to be seen, had an older Rose gone to the hospital and bumped into a certain Doctor Jones by a vending machine or as she was taking Rose’s vitals, she would have instantly hit it off with Martha. and probably flirted with her a little on accident and then on purpose when Martha flirted back

[edge-oftheworld]

when I was in high school there was a tendency whenever there was an attractive boy to simply fan over him. in a way that talked over everything he might say for himself and created a narrative that completely ignored, the fact in some cases, that he was really struggling—or if he was struggling, to pin all the blame on the girl he’s dating and completely ignore the thousands of other factors (no it can’t be mental illness or unaccommodated disability or systemic abuse or exploitation and if he is in an abusive relationship we won’t ever consider the factors that put him at risk for that)

and I’m not saying this fandom is like that. I get the need for privacy around some things and how in public conversations sometimes it’s a lot more respectful to stick to the positives (everyone who does that, I admire you) or even the struggles that are talked about publicly, show respect by not reading too far into them. there’s a time and place for that. but sometimes I feel like our only options are shitty and ableist gossip or totally ignoring the systemic and structural issues we know exist in something like the music industry until someone dies and then we’re looking for someone to blame. friends, there is a point where the respectful thing is to listen to what someone says and come together to make things better. and you can learn how to have that conversation respectfully. please do

guys. guys !!!!

[ladytauria]

my assumptions about you: i feel like you either are or were in the past into those zodiac posts that would go something like "the signs as x".

more of a long shot, but for some reason i think that you may have read sarah dessen books in the past. fantasy seems to be more your thing (relatable) so i don't have an explanation for this.

finally, i think you like the movie anastasia. it just feels very fitting for you.

lol you’re right, i do love those kind of posts. i don’t believe in astrology, really, but i think all that kind of personality sorting stuff is fun xD

i actually had to look up her bibliography xD sarah dessen’s books are not the kind of thing that would appeal to me now, but i could see myself having picked them up as a middle schooler. (also, spot on, fantasy is my main love, followed by sci-fi & other speculative fiction). none of the titles or covers are sticking out to me, tho. doesn’t mean i didn’t read them—but i def don’t remember doing so. i’ll give you this one tho bc i read similar if not her specifically

i have never actually seen anastasia!! that was one of the very few pieces of media my mom didn’t let us watch! that does remind me that i need to watch it one day tho bc everything abt it does seem up my alley xD

[llumimoon]

glenn and/or scary for the character bingo ? >:]

For Scary:

This one has SO MANY ALMOST BINGOS…. I kept debating whether or not to do ‘LEAVE THEM ALONE!!’ bc it’s like YES she has done shitty things but also she’s my little girl but also it’s justified to criticize her actions but also it’s important to keep in mind she’s being manipulated… etc.

For Glenn:

I think for me a lot of these boxes r like. Affectionate I want to hold and protect you. I don’t want to protect Glenn I think he can do that perfectly fine himself. I DO think he’s the funniest himbo alive who has suffered more than Jesus though

more stories should have the guts to kill their main character
