[mrbonsaibones]

you know I’ve seen some people musing about this recently and I would like to add my thoughts on it:

Caitlyn Kiramman is like the epitome of that meme about how girls actually play with their barbies. like, you expect her to be Normal and Not Like That and then you watch her commit crimes for six episodes.

one part of her character that means a lot to me is just how committed she is to completely ignoring any authority that she can, and it makes sense! she’s been kept on an incredibly short leash for most of her life, her parents have enough influence to control parts of her life even as an adult, and my girl is probably pretty tired of that!

and like, yes, she’s righteous and good and just and kind and whatever but I think people should remember that her goodness is not her whole character.

it is also her wonderful urge to be just a little insane. Sure, she’ll impersonate an officer, forge official documents, and break someone out of prison. she’ll trade her weapon for drugs, she’ll flirt with a girl in a brothel, she’ll tell her mom to her face that she thinks her mom isn’t doing enough with her power WHILE getting shrapnel removed from her leg.

all this to say: I enjoy watching her buck authority and I wish people in this fandom would stop pretending she’s a pure little goody two shoes just cause she wants to help people. she is also Feral. please let her be Feral.

I know it’s been talked about ad nauseam, but I think one of the things that got lost in the discourse about TTPD and the muses and whatnot is how one of, if not the core trigger points of the album is the yearning for commitment and perhaps even more poignantly, motherhood.

The reason she was so susceptible to falling for the “conman’s get love quick schemes” is because she was grieving that imagined life with the person she had long assumed would be the one to give her that. What has been beyond clear in several albums, let alone interviews etc, is that those plans for building a family were very much real and top of mind for years, and she kept holding on and shifting her world in service of making that happen. And when whatever happened happened that pulled that rug out from under her, it left her bereft not just for the relationship that had once been her world but also the imagined family she had been hoping for and sticking out the hard times for.

And that’s likely why she was swayed by and trusting of the promises of someone who knew her history and knew how unmooring that loss was to her. It may have been partially about the person himself or lust or whatever, but the core issue was the pain of giving up the dream, and sublimating that dream into this new opportunity in front of her, because she was so desperate to hold onto the last scraps of that imagined life she wanted so badly. (And I don’t mean desperate as in pathetic or negative, I mean as in fighting within the last ounce of energy and hope she had.) It wasn’t rational and it wasn’t love, it was grief, not just for a relationship but even more so for the family it represented.

So to me the core issue of TTPD isn’t just the Joe vs. Matty or whoever of it all: it’s Taylor and her yearning. She wanted a family badly and a life that was theirs and was processing losing that in all kinds of ways. It’s all over the album in overt and subtle lyrics. It may not have been grieving a literal death but I’d bet it felt pretty darn close.

And I’d also bet that’s why we’re seeing… what we’re seeing now.

(I have so many more thoughts about womanhood and motherhood on TTPD but that is another post being worked on piecemeal in my drafts… this is just a little Saturday morning post-zoomies reflection)

genuinely i love teaching so much i think this was the most confident and energetic i have ever felt starting with a new group of students

[impossibledial]

i’m so intrigued by dannyclara despite not shipping them. i think that relationship is an interesting addition to clara’s character arc and i’m still trying to to figure out it’s purpose.

asking someone to choose the “best social media corner of the WC fandom” is a bit unfair because they’re all like an entirely different internet culture of fans, WC twitter isn’t going to be the same as WC tumblr and those two are definitely not going to be the same as WC Reddit

Where’s that post about how cringing at stuff you’ve said in the past means you’ve grown? Cause… I need it for reasons

[dykedvonte]

Hello, I've recently followed you because I love your nuanced character analysis on Mouthwashing. On a post you mentioned writing a fic. Where would I be able to read it?

If it’s the one about like Curly not getting flayed in the crash and Jimmy dying then I have yet to write it. It probably won’t be a thing until after the next chapter of the current fic, Dental Hygiene. This fic has a more concrete stopping point in my head whistle the other one is gonna be way more subjective and explorative. So I’m in no rush.

If you want to read it it’s here (link). But sorry if I got ur hopes up.

[straightlightyagami]

maybe the reason people on here do not understand what terfs/gc radfems believe and often cannot even tell them apart from transphobic conservatives,or just transphobes who are not radfems in general, (like they will say stuff that is in most cases very obviously untrue about terf beliefs like “terfs want women to be feminine” and “terfs have nothing against cis men actually they only care about trans people”) is that they cannot grasp that terfs genuinely view trans men as women and trans women as men. and then they get mad when people tell them their perception of this ideology is incorrect. i think this is a pretty dangerous trend bc this is how they recruit people, someone hears all this stuff radfems supposedly believe, arguments against strawmen instead of the actual thing, and then they hear actual radfem beliefs and go “so i was lied to.” since this person doesn’t understand the basis of this sort of bigotry, they may begin to believe it if it is introduced with a different explanation.

so to say, in order to defeat your enemy you have to understand them and you clearly do not

I saw a comment on the post-trial shortonegaming video that went something like this: "everyone loves Gonta, but no one respects him," and honestly, I think that's a great way to sum it up. They all love him and care about him, but they don't really take him seriously.

And it's noticeable in smaller things, like when almost everyone brushes off his comments about tiny bugs (and in bonus interactions he talks about it A LOT). But in the 4th trial this is even more obvious. They don't see him as a person who could kill for everyone's sake. They only see him as a victim.

Gonta is a very observant person with strong moral principles and a desire to be helpful. But mostly he's seen as a kind but very naive child. And this is a different, but really heartbreaking kind of pain💔

(Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't remember people saying much when he calls himself stupid. He does this a lot, but people often don't go out of their way to convince him that it's not true. They scold Kokichi when he says this about Gonta, but they don't say much when Gonta says so himself. Of course, I could be wrong, maybe I need to pay more attention to it next time)

Anyway, I really enjoy reading your thoughts about Gonta! I liked him before, but you made me appreciate him on a whole different level❤

I haven’t seen shortonegaming’s post trial video yet, but yeah. That’s a really accurate way to put it. Gonta has always seemed so isolated from the others, never having one close friend/ally for longer than one chapter. He was always appreciated and loved, but not respected as a person so never fully integrated into the group. Its part of why I think going from having a small group of people working with him in the student council to being completely by himself in chapter 4 (with his ideas always dismissed in this chapter, even if it was to stop him from sacrificing himself) added to everything he was feeling at the time.

And it SUCKS. Because as you said, nobody says anything when he self deprecates, only when Kokichi really pushes it in chapter 4. Even when Miu is rude to him in previous chapters a couple of times, nothing. Because they take his self loathing at face value despite the fact that he IS smart. He’s very thoughtful, observant, and brave. One thing that stuck out to me in trial 4 was Himiko defending Gonta from Kokichi’s accusations, she said something along the lines of “Gonta couldn’t have done all of that! He’s not smart-“ before getting interrupted by Kokichi with something else. Not only do a lot of them casually brush him off, but they also agree with his own judgements of himself without questioning it.

The only person who ever tried to push back against Gonta being hard on himself, if I remember correctly, was Kaito. Sometimes, when Gonta would apologize for something a bit excessively, Kaito would say “a man shouldn’t apologize so easily!” (Which isn’t exactly a good way to correct that but. Thank you Kaito for trying). The only other time I remember was that moment between them in the virtual world right before Gonta goes to kill Miu, where Kaito directly counters him calling himself stupid. But I genuinely can’t remember any other character saying anything like this. (If anyone else remembers, please let me know!!)

But yeah. It’s just so so tragic. And it’s why I think post game Gonta would be such a lonely person.

And thank you for the kind words q^q it makes me more happy than you could know to hear that me posting about Gonta has got people to appreciate him more. He’s such a special character to me and it’s so rare to find fanworks going into these parts about him

Val Is Pretty Sure She Might Be Losing Her Mind, more at 11

[franceblr]

some nsfw, half-baked sasodei hc, heavily inspired by all the smutty ff i was able to get my hands on over at ao3, and the previous post 🌶️

disclaimer: i’m assuming sasori has a jutsu that enables him to switch back to his human body when they get hot and heavy, and he switches back quite often; i also use the term teenager, because to me an 18-19 y/o is still a teen.

sasori loves riling deidara up until he’s incoherent; loves fucking into him to the point where deidara’s drooling, moaning, panting, screaming broken sentences and nonsense pleas and begging, and then cruelly relishes in asking deidara questions his brain is too far gone to comprehend and answer; adores it when he holds him down, stops him from moving on his own and forces deidara to look at him; meanly taunts deidara into trying to put a sentence together when his brain is mush and the only thing he can think about is his body’s scorching need for sasori’s touch, and sasori knowingly halts his movements, degrading and humiliating deidara with mock sympathy and insulting jabs, forcing him to beg for his pleasure until deidara wails in frustrated desperation. relishes in the way he can turn his otherwise proud and  insolent lover into an incoherent mess that’s got only sasori’s cock on his mind, is absolutely delighted by the fact that he can take all of deidara’s witty words and sharp comebacks right out of his mouth.

deidara’s got an oral fixation; sasori loves putting his mouths to work when he gets too bratty or impertinent. loves brutally thrusting in deidara’s throat, face-fucking him deeply, making him take his cock all the way to the base and keeping him there, chocking on his dick and struggling to mantain eye contact, all gurgling noises and tears; only lets him up for air when deidara stops struggling, and sasori bends over and spits out to deidara that this is what insolent brats like him need to get back in line. loves letting deidara nurse on the tip of his dick for hours when he’s restless and needs grounding, kitten licks and soft suckling sounds, drooling slightly as his plush lips part to accomodate sasori’s girth, and his cock rests on deidara’s palate; loves looking at the way deidara’s eye glaze over, loves how calm and placated he becomes, like all he needed was sasori’s cock in his mouth. then sasori gets nice, cards his hand gently through deidara’s soft locks, praises him quietly and tells him he’s so good, calls him his baby dei, occasionally lazily thrusting up and into his mouth. 

sasori is vigorous and athletic, but his libido is of no match against that of a teenager’s (and a taurus teen at that). that’s why sasori always makes deidara sweat for his attention in the bedroom. sasori never gives in easily, never gives deidara what he wants until the last possible minute, when deidara is right about to tip over. considered how sexy and seductive deidara can be, that’s quite the feat, but sasori’s resolve is of iron. partially because sasori values his own time greatly, and wants deidara to appreciate every minute he spends appeasing his lame human needs; partially because he derives great pleasure in seeing how deidara will jump through hoops and do the splits for his danna’s attention, for his touch; gets a sick sense of enjoyment in watching how much humiliation and patronization and belittlement deidara will endure to get what he wants. loves riling him up and wearing him down until he’s exhausted and satisfied, dried tear tracks staining his cheeks and body gone boneless in sasori’s arms. not that deidara minds having to work for it; though occasionally sasori will indulge in his pillow princess fantasies, most of the time deidara has to go the extra mile to put on a show worth of sasori’s attention and appreciation: but deidara is a huge show off and he’s got no shame, so he’s always eager to impress and seduce, always ready to follow orders and be good for sasori. luckily for deidara, his lover always makes the sex worth the effort. some days he tortures deidara with edging, keeps deidara between his thighs with a hand around his throat and forces his legs open, deidara’s back to sasori’s chest while he works him up right to the brink of countless orgasms he never gets to experience, until dei pants in his shoulder and pleads; other days he punishes deidara with overstimulation, wringing orgasm after orgasm out of deidara, until he’s wailing and twisting in agony to escape from underneath sasori’s merciless touch. sometimes, if he’s feeling generous, he’ll cede some control over to deidara, telling him he can do whatever he pleases; deidara will then either climb in his lap and give sasori a masterclass in riding, one knee bent and his hands resting on sasori’s chest or thighs for balance, grinding down his hips in fluid motions that reach oh so deep, making deidara shamelessly throw his head back in pleasure, sasori following every motion enraptured. Sometimes he surprises sasori and takes charge for real, bending him over and eating him out the way he knows will make sasori gasp and his cheeks flush, and then he’ll fuck into him gently, one handmouth wrapped around his dick as he bites into sasori’s shoulder.

both deidara and sasori enjoy somnophilia. once sasori awoke to deidara grinding against his thigh in his sleep, and touching and fucking deidara while he sleeps has since been a staple in their sex lives. the mornings when deidara wakes up with sasori moving inside of him are his favourites; to know that he’s that irresistible to sasori is very flattering, but the awareness that sasori doesn’t need deidara conscious to take what he wants from him drives him straight up crazy with need. sometimes deidara fights back just for the sake of sasori getting harsher with his thrusts, violently pinning him down, whispering threats in the dark that make deidara’s heart race and his cock wet. other mornings deidara will be woken up by sasori sucking his dick, because if there’s something sasori finds hot, it’s deidara mewling while he thrusts lightly in his mouth, half asleep and arching and so endearingly unguarded, face hidden in the crook of his elbow. 

sasori doesn’t always give into deidara’s need; when he’s feeling particularly cruel, he’ll ignore deidara’s flushed cheeks and his feverish want until he goes mad with arousal, allowing deidara to climb into his lap and grind against him chasing some form of relief, but not budging at all despite deidara heatedly mouthing at his neck, his jaw, at his lips, pleading and bargaining with sasori even if he refuses to touch him. sasori will wait patiently until deidara inevitably cracks, cause the damn brat is so spoiled that not getting his way always results in tears and tantrums: if he’s pleased with deidara, he’ll get him off, or let him hump sasori’s leg until he cums, while sasori sneaks a thumb between his lips. If his sadism gets the best of sasori, he’ll firmly tell deidara no, ignoring him even when he’s on his knees, nosing and mouthing at sasori’s erection through his pants; sasori will push him off gently, and will listen to deidara’s whining with sick pleasure, cause he knows dei knows he’s not allowed to touch himself and cum. If he denies deidara like that, next time he’ll make sure to be extra nice and giving to make up to deidara.

despite regularly denying deidara, sasori finds deidara so attractive. to him, it doesn’t matter if deidara’s trashing underneath him so wildly sasori has to hold him still, making feral animal sounds as he tries to fight sasori off using half of his strenght, like he doesn’t want it, like sasori doesn’t know that being brutally taken with a knife against his throat isn’t all he dreams of, that being subdued and broken isn’t his what he secretly wants and craves and needs; it doesn’t matter if deidara’s coquettishly looking at him from underneath his lashes, wearing a blush silk robe with his hair down and fanned behind him, body angled and oozing sex, playing up his innocence and naivety so sasori cannot help himself but want to jump him and ruin him for good. and when he spreads his legs invitingly, and lets sasori make love to him like he was a girl, moans high pitched and back arched and looking every bit like a sex kitten whose only purpose is to corrupt and tantalize, sasori really loses it. othertimes sasori gets hard at the mere sight of a deidara who’s just woken up, wearing a shirt that’s too big on him and rubbing his eyes; other times it’s a barefoot deidara who just came back from outside, dirty soles and messy hair and flushed cheeks, scratching idly at his newest slew of mosquito bites. it’s like deidara’s cracked the code: he knows that whichever side of him the displays to sasori, whether it’s his animalistic and violent side that begs to be tamed and hurt, whether it’s unsubtly playing into his flirtatious minx fantasies and allowing deidara’s youthful feminine charm to extract exactly what he wants from sasori, or a softly boyish dei who’s unaware of the way his nonchalance and naivety makes sasori throb in his pants, deidara has sasori wrapped around his little finger.

unpopular opinion for a rarepair again (not sorry) but I’m kinda sad more people don’t explore how wrong Jim’s is when it comes to Edward.

Jim Gordon wasn’t Edward’s friend. Never once did he ever show anything more than the niceness you’d carry for your acquaintances or coworkers to Ed. Never once does he try to stop bullock’s (who is bullying Edward for ableist reasons and is Jim Gordon’s closest friend mind you) bullying of Ed, let alone anyone’s else bullying of Ed. Like guys the ableism it’s right there and he didn’t do shit please please please…. To Jim, ed is just a guy pre finding out he’s genuinely insane. He’s just a guy who helps him and is kinda a bit too weird for him to want to hang out with for long, but still just a guy. A guy to just use a bit of and then leave behind because the cons of hanging around him for too long for too much. He’s doesn’t have strong feelings for Ed ever really and gets confused by Ed being attached to him for basic human kindness. It’s so one sided it makes me wanna pull my teeth out.

Its one sided nature makes him now suddenly switching gears and claiming he and Ed were friends IS what makes it so tragic to me!!!! They were not friends!!! This is just a lie Jim is telling himself in order to avoid responsibility. He’s twisting what really happened between their brief interactions in order to avoid any slight accountability for Ed becoming like this. Even despite Ed being basically in a psychotic break when he was point that gun at Jim, he was ultimately right about their dynamic. And Jim can’t accept that.

Also we both know season one Ed wasn’t the soft meek angel Jim paints him as now due to guilt. No the fact he wasn’t Jim fell for the facade. Ed has always been his narcissistic snooty insecure self he just had to hide it from everyone in season one in order to be safe. We literally see his ego leak out and show itself multiple times(Kristen interactions, the fucking hands in the locker incident, him smirking when it came to bullock having his shift before Jim’s, you get the point). While it is important to acknowledge season one Ed is very much insecure which Jim gets right, he never truly understood Ed.

like guys why can’t we just ship two egoistical men together that’s so fun. They weren’t friends before this entire dynamic happened because Jim got curious. Sure Ed could have a one sided crush on Jim in season one that makes sense but idk it feels exteremly important narratively for Jim to NOT CARE for Ed back then and let his bullying completely slide. Like please guys see the vision

NYGMAGORDON IS SO FUN WHEN BOTH OF THEM UNDERMINE THE OTHER BTW….ED PAINTING JIM AS A FOOLISH IDIOT WHO KNOWS NOTHING WHILE JIM PAINTS ED AS A WEIRD LUNATIC WHO USED TO BE SO PURE AND INNOCENT BEFORE HE JUST SNAPPED FOR NO REASON JUST LIKE HOW HE PAINTS BARBARA IN THE SHOW!!!! PLEASE!!!! IT BEING ONESIDED FOR MOST OF IT AND JIM ONLY FOOLING AROUND WITH ED LATER OUT OF CURIOSITY AND GUILT WOULD BE SO INTERESTING PLEASE HEAR ME OUTTTT
