It's time to wrap up the Grand Edition special booklet with the second short story (๑•̀ㅂ•́)ง✧

In this one, Yui and the Mukamis spend three nights investigating the rumor going around Ryōtei Academy about a ghost haunting its premises. Using the tried and true "Let's Split Up, Gang!" method of investigation, a reluctant Yui is paired with a different brother each night as they attempt to get to the bottom of the mystery.

Enjoy (ﾉ*^∇^)ﾉ♡

here's what i'm gonna do because peace of mind is not easy to maintain:

I'm gonna delete every single hateful ask I've gotten and can find because neither I nor you guys deserve that much negativity.

I'm not gonna reply to any type of hate ever again, I don't care if I make a change.

I'm gonna go off tumblr for a while because it has gotten too much for me.

of preferences and headcanons.

Hi! I know I haven't posted real content in over a year, but since I've been on Tumblr the past week, I can't help but notice a discourse happening on Helsa tag.

I believe as a community, we should all respect other people's takes and opinions, especially in a fandom, where everyone may perceive things differently. Everyone has their own preferences that not everyone could get or understand, and that is okay. For example, and also to address the elephant in the room, if you prefer a ship (in this case, Helsa) to not be canon, it's totally fine. And if you would love for it to be canon, then that is fine too. It's not okay when you try to tell people how they must feel towards a certain media (in this case, Frozen) and tell fellow shippers they're not a true shipper just because they don't share the same preferences as you do. Stating an opinion of your preference is not the same as telling others to change that preference to suit the one that you like.

"I would prefer to not have them to be canon."

"If you're a true fan, you would have done THIS instead!"

See how different those two sentences are? The first one is neutral, while the other one is more demanding.

Honestly, I want to respect both, but I believe respect is earned and not given, and if the person is being disrespectful then I will return the disrespect back to their faces. Treat people the way you want be treated, remember?

I've been in between fandoms for over a decade, so I've come across discourses over headcanons and preferences plenty of time. Here's a reminder: Be respectful! It's not hard if you recognise that everyone perceive things differently and that the world doesn't revolve around you and your opinions only. You can always agree to disagree.

Being respectful also means being respectful to fanartists and fanwriters. Have some decency and refrain from using someone else's works without their permission (it's not hard to ask!). Just because you found it on Google does not mean it's public domain. As for appreciating fanwriters, you can start by reading what you want to read. You can start by filtering keywords and tropes or genres that you don't like. AO3 has a tagging system for a reason. If you don't pay attention to the tags, don't blame the writer for writing what they want to write and not how you want it. They create contents for free and you are not the boss of them. If you want something that specifically suits your taste buds, you can commission them.

Learn how to differentiate between what's canon and what's your own headcanon and interpretations, what's canon and what's a mere concept. Maybe you're reading too much into it, maybe it's in your head. Headcanons are fun, being delulu is literally my middle name, but not everything that you perceive is canon. You can disregard canon (like I do, most of the time) but you have to be clear about it, and draw a hard line to separate them, label them with 'canon divergence' or 'canon compliance' (you can look up each definition). A concept that did not make into the final product can hardly be considered canon.

This fandom community is supposed to be a safe space for everyone regardless their reason in shipping Helsa (be it because of their appealing aesthetics or others) as long as they're being respectful to each other. I didn't think I would be here writing all these to address the bad apples. Sure, the bad apples are always there in every community, but when these bad apples are the loud majority, I feel like I have to say something to clear up some misconceptions about this fandom. Helsa fandom isn't exactly popular, even back in the day, and it's mostly because shippers of other ships and fandom purists have already assumed the worst when they interacted with the ship before they did the shipper, which once again is out of the shippers' control.

From my experience, name-calling fellow shippers over these niche stuff will drive people away and discourage some creators from creating content (I already am on this stage). So, in my opinion, let's just agree to disagree. It's probably just me, but it's not like we have the power to make the writers write what we want anyway (Frozen 2 is already a proof that they would write what they want to write).

Fuck It Friday ☔️

I was tagged by @daffi-990 @jamespearce9-1-1 @eddiebabygirldiaz @wikiangela and @jeeyuns thank youuu 💛

Aside from some editing, my Christmas fics are all done and now I can slowly return to my main wips, so I thought I'll post a snippet from Eddie's pov in the mudslide fic (most of that part is just too spoilery and I rarely share from it, but this bit was waiting to come out for a while now, so here 🫶).

He mostly thought about Christopher; imagined him waking up in the morning, pestering Buck for breakfast and news he couldn't give, going to school and coming home, sitting at the dining table, doing his homework… Just normal things.

He would’ve given anything to be with them right now. To walk out of his room in the morning and see Buck’s sleep-rumpled face, his curls flat on top of his head, his smile lazy and crooked and his bare feet on Eddie’s living room carpet.

To watch the tattoos shift on Buck’s naked shoulders as he stretched and to hear his hoarse voice as he mumbled out a quiet “morning” on his way to the bathroom. To smell the scent of his overnight sweat still lingering on his skin while making their coffees side by side, waiting for Christopher to finally shuffle out of his room for breakfast.

To hear the sleepy mumble stifled in his own ribs as Chris gave him his good morning hug and see the toothy grin tugging at his lips as Buck entertained him throughout breakfast, making him giggle with his silly facts and jokes.

To yell “come on, we're gonna be late” at the front door as Chris ran back inside for a book he forgot and then to yell again after Chris was back but Buck just realised he had left his phone on the kitchen counter.

To sit in the car and talk about after-school plans and listen to the radio on a low volume before dropping Chris off with a hug each and then to bundle back into the truck and head to work together, barely just having enough time to stop for one of those creamy coffee monstrosities Buck liked so much — that somehow Eddie learned to like too, only if to indulge in the fantasy of what Buck’s lips would taste like on his own.

I'm not a sydcarmy shipper but why do you think they should be together? I'm a sydluca shipper rn.

is it okay if i dm you some of my old meta when i have the time? 😭 this season/carmy in particular among other things was intensely maddening to me but i really do think that syd and carmy have significant feelings for each other and in their most harmonious moments have electric chemistry (thank you JAW and Ayo) despite their respective mental and emotional (carmy especially, hoo boy! whew chile, the ghetto!) hangups - and that they can build a loving, stable, and fulfilling relationship together someday IF given the opportunities by the writers to have the healing and character development that is needed for them to do so in a convincing and realistic way

also as sweet as their interactions were, and as much as i want syd to be with someone calm and respectful who is not verbally abusive and is polite - imo - i still think lucus (marcus and luca's ship name) had better chemistry to me, sorry. sydluca is cute but the chemistry is not firing on all cylinders to me considering i've only seen their interactions in one episode thus far. maybe i'll jump ship to sydluca someday if I see more of their interactions in the future, but I highly doubt it. 😭

p.s. here's three of my old Sydcarmy edits from post s2 in the interim until I wrangle my old Sydcarmy meta text posts (I first started to do fan edits / gifs / fanfic because of sydcarmy - at its best their dynamic is THAT compelling to me - I hyperfixated on them so bad that I did almost 30 fanvid edits for them up on my channel within a six month period after season 2 dropped - will be waiting until I see what the writers do in season 4 to decide if i want to do fan edits for them ever again though) ❤️
