Love never felt easier

Tags: Female Reader, love interest insert, no mention of Y/N

Hey Guys! So this is just me getting back into writing so sorry if it's a bit rusty. Eitherway I hope you enjoy!

_________________________________________

She loved him. Didn't she?

The constant thrum of her heartbeat that spiked when he was around had proven that. Though she played it off easily considering how playful she was around others, but surely…

Surely, this was different.

Perhaps it started with the small things, like noticing the way he would tap his pencil on the desk to fill the silence, the constant 'ticking' serving as a way for others to know that he was bored. Or how he wasn't afraid to be himself even if others thought negatively about him. The happy, over-the-top personality that somehow made it so much easier to hide the growing feelings she felt under a veil of irritation yet also made it difficult to hide the smile that almost always appeared when he was around.

When had it even started? Was it after she threatened to hit him with her bag? Or was it when she asked him over for their weekly movie night?

Maybe it had started when he had stayed over the night last month and woke to her silent sobs that she thought she could get out without waking him. When he wrapped his arms around her, teasing her in hopes her anger would overtake her sadness (no one said he was good at comforting others, but the thought counts) because he'd rather see her yelling than crying. How she had woken up that morning to his blanket being thrown over her own, him lying asleep on the other couch that somehow had been pulled closer to her own.

Or maybe, just maybe it had been because he never spoke of it again. He would tease and nag, but he'd never ask her why she was crying because he knew that she would have told him if she were comfortable with it.

Either way, the point is that she fell for him, hadn't she? Every action, every smile, every word, she had softened quite a bit recently towards him. No longer would she snap at him as much as she did before, seeming to go for more of a teasing approach just to see his smile widen as he took on the challenge.

Now that she thinks about it, she probably had been in love with him for a while and only realized it now when it was too much to ignore. People seem to think that it's easy for one to notice when their feelings change for someone, but how do you know when everything feels the same?

Same words, different font.

The point is, she's pretty sure that she fell for him. Now what should she do? No one gave detailed instructions on how to deal with the emotion, and now she was completely in the dark.

But all in all, no matter how irritating he may be and how many times she wished he had an off switch, she's glad she fell for him.

Because even though she's in the dark about what to do now, he'll be the light to pull her out of it.

He always is.

Pardon if you've already discussed this specifically! This has just weighing on my mind again because I keep seeing unjustified points in posts of fans (stans) trying to provide evidence to validate their hate 👀

I get canon vs. fanon. I know we (all) see something happen once or repeatedly and think it has more significance than what it probably does, and it's fun to fantasize. I also understand in fandoms, generally as a whole, we'll (all) be like "ehh yeah let's pretend that didn't just happen!" Like when a character dies or when trying to bleach our brains from seeing something inappropriate. You know, coping with a loss or trying to make the show watchable/toleratable still. Right? My confusion these last 5 months or so is people wanting to use "it's implied" because of personal feelings and not factual reasonings based on the episodes or "I didn't see it so it didn't happen!" to disregard one side but then will use those same points to prove they're right because they're upset about what's canon. Does that make sense? I know they don't care about the hypocrisy, but they can't be serious... personal feelings still don't make it canon 🤨

Strongest example(s) being "whether Tommy apologized" split between "it's repeatedly implied as they all hung out outside of work and had continuous contact throughout the years and they more than likely wouldn't befriend him if he didn't or still acted the same given their standards" against "we never saw him say 'sorry' so he wasn't actually forgiven since... WE didn't see it" leading us to "the 118/fam don't like Tommy because of their facial expressions and how they responded to him." As they said before, if it wasn't aired, it's not canon... unless it fits their agenda. They seem to mix and match and decide what's appropriate for canon to fit their needs. I see them choosing which particular bts, unused promo, or deleted scenes as they please because it's "good" for their ship/character, but turning around and saying the opposite, if it wasn't aired during an episode it didn't happen, if it challenges their desires...

Why is it that they'll use the HenRen/Tommy deleted scene as an "interpretation" of HK questioning or as they say "not approving" of Tommy as something canon because it "proves" whatever they're making up about anti TK/BT, but won't accept and even denied the implication Tommy's "maybe apology" because it wasn't seen? And at the same time, they also want to say Eddie only strictly "emotionally cheated because they didn't air the kiss," but Ramon canonically said "He (Christopher) said he came home and caught you kissing his dead mother" and Eddie said "it's a little true" not in regards to the kissing but to it being "Shannon" but still they'll swear up and down Kim and Eddie NEVER canonically kissed because it wasn't seen?? Like neither was the "shovel talk" so 🤦🏾‍♀️

Dumbfounded... 😅

So let me get this straight. HenRen/Tommy scene wasn't aired, but it's still canon... Kim/Eddie kiss edit version wasn't aired but verbally confirmed during airing also not canon... and Tommy's apology that was not scripted but implied, most definitely, not canon... ???

I know there's no logic, but I can't wrap my head around it no matter how hard I try to comprehend it 😂 I honestly try to not to think negativity about shippers and stans but wow I'm confused lol

so, I'm actually writing a meta right now that touches on a lot of what you're saying, so I'm gonna leave that for now, but I will talk about the deleted kiss

I've said before, I don't consider deleted scenes canon, I call them "schrodinger's canon". we can certainly treat them as canon for fandom stuff and also spec, but if the show contradicts them, it's not a ret-con. so to me, the henren tommy scene is not actually canon. it seems like it was probably just cut for time, so I have no problem with people treating it like canon, so long as they understand that it can be discarded very easily.

so in that vein, the eddiekim kiss isn't canon to me. it was cut, and probably not for time, but because they felt it didn't fit. I don't see ramon's line as contradicting that in any way. the doylist explanation is probably that they intended to have them kiss, as it was filmed, but then decided against it after having already filmed the finale

the watsonian explanation is, chris could very well be embellishing, OR it's that he's a traumatized teenager who walked in on his dad embracing a women who looks like his dead mother. in between seeing that and calling his grandparents, it's very possible his brain distorted it and he really does think they were kissing.

but emotional cheating is still cheating. I wouldn't even put a qualifier on it, it's just cheating. idc that you never kissed, the other woman was clearly under the impression you were in a relationship, however chaste of one, it's cheating. you think if kim hadn't shown up at the firehouse and buck went to talk to eddie, that it wouldn't have ended with them fucking? eddie was fantasizing about sex within a day, they would have fucked and he would have called her shannon, and it would have been gloriously messy, and much better than what we got.

also, I feel like comparing the deleted kiss to the deleted henren tommy scene is uneven. let's talk about the kiss and the potential eddie/tommy pairing. cause either deleted content matters or it doesn't. if them cutting the kiss means it didn't happen and eddie "only" emotionally cheated, then any possibility of eddie/tommy is also irrelevant. cause they got far enough to film the kiss, while eddie/tommy was only talked about, and we don't even know how briefly.

anyway, this is a little disjointed, but I'm gonna go work on that meta that'll hopefully be clearer

[marcusbrutus]

I feel like I have a tumblr anon in my brain…. Like a tiny cop. But it’s an chronically online anonymous weirdo. And every thought I have, I get “anons” telling me how it’s problematic and I should kill my self LOL The other morning I saw an RFK sign and I thought doesn’t he have brain worms, someone running for president shouldn't have brain worms. maybe apply for literally any other job. and the anon was like ummm ableist much? Like WHAT. I turned off anon on tumblr a while ago, so even if I post something “risky”, someone will have to tell me what they think to my face. They can’t hide. Even posts I think are innocuous can be wildly misinterpreted, and someone will probably call me problematic. But even if no one says anything, I still hear it. In my brain. Sometimes I delete things because the thought is so strong. I’m probably not gonna make it to any heaven or enlightenment because I can’t forgive yourfaveisproblematic. In my mind, Tumblr was great before then, or at least it felt that way, and that blog sewed the seeds for cancel culture in the future. That stuff sticks to my brain, even if I don’t want it too. When you put sins like "said disabled people shouldn't be alive" on the same level as "has a tattoo in a language they don't natively speak," it is very confusing to a people-pleasing undiagnosed autistic 14 year old. I felt/feel like I can’t like anyone or anything because it’s ~problematic~ I worry it will never go away, because it affected me in my developing years, 14-19 I want to get better, but it’s hard. I wish I could run from the internet, but I can’t. It’s a part of life now. It’s how we stay connected. But it’s also like…. Idk. The internet used to be my safe space, right? Deviantart. Early tumblr. Seeing weird people like me made me feel less alone. I was a weeb surrounded by “preps” for lack of a better word, not that I didn’t have friends but NONE of them were into what I was into, you know? And no one became as obsessive about things like books and anime like I did, except online. But now it’s like, idk, corruption of the garden of Eden. But instead of me eating the fruit, the garden/internet ate the fruit. The world is too different now… I can’t keep up. And it’s not just because I’m getting older. Things happen faster now. Trends will last half a year when in the past they would have lasted a decade. I hate knowing everything all of the time. I hate that my garden is now a cesspool.

I’m just angry that people on tumblr and lefty spaces online are so blind to their own propaganda, and calling it out is “hate.” Like idk, I guess I expected better from people who are supposed to be ~intellectuals~. Well, if YouTube video essays have taught me anything, style over substance goes a LONG way. And they’re like “oh we’re so compassionate and we want a better future” but they tell everyone to kill themselves and laugh when red states get devastated by natural disasters it's not just that but it's like…. if you're not constantly aware of everything, you're ~part ofthe problem~ #wakeupamerica. silence is violence, blah blah blah. it's just hard because i grew up with a strict dad so learned to be a people pleaser. i'm extremely sensitive to guilt and shame. and all most of the internet has done since 2014 is shame everyone for everything. you're either with Us (good, pure, morally righteous) or you're with Them (problematic, evil). you don't want to be gasp problematic, do you? you don't want to have a callout post made about you and lose all your friends, right? well, keep you nose clean and reblog all the right posts so we know which side you're on an maybe, maybe we'll leave you alone. i have the stress of someone in debt to a mob boss. nah it's more like… i have the stress of everyone in the scarlet letter and im hoping everyone will keep their eyes on the Villain of the Week and leave me alone there's a decent video called "how to radicalize a normie." i say decent because it treats radicalization like a right-wing only issue and the "answer" to right wing radicalization is, of course left wing radicalization. "Even though they're on the bad, evil side, there's still hope because we can get them to our good, morally righteous side!" That kinda bs, and I say bs not in a left vs right way. According to my dad I'm a full blown communist! I'm saying it in the sense that the answer to radicalization isn't "just radicalize them to the other side." That's not at all helpful. You might as well tell an alcoholic who likes jameson to just switch to jack daniels. It's all poison, it's all harmful. ANYWAY, he talks about how most people don't set out to be radicalized, the politics comes to them. That happened to me - but on the left. And I'm sure if I left a comment on his video saying as much, he'd say it didn't happen or say it was a good thing. On tumblr, I came for anime. And for the first year, I got anime. But then I got really intense political stuff. "silence is violence." "i see you not reblogging this." "if you're not angry, you're not paying attention." I was 14-15, sheltered as fuck, I don't know anything about the world but now tumblr is convincing me that I know more about political issues than anyone. And it changed me. And it fucked me up. and I want to get unfucked. But I don't know how. I feel like an internet alcoholic. Like, even if I do stop using it, it will still be there, haunting me, forever, you know? because all my friends use it, not just you guys but irl friends. and the internet is effecting the real world. I miss the days when there was the internet, then there was reality. but now the internet is the reality. That's why I also fell so hard for the [REDACTED] stuff. Tumblr made me think everyone was [REDACTED] because like 99% of tumblr is [REDACTED], and I was worried about it because god help you if you question anything or show the slightest bit of concern. God help you if you're not full steam ahead on everything. I want to escape the matrix. I hate the hypocrisy…. And I hate even more that I’m also a hypocrite. I fall for group think and propaganda but act like I’m above it all. I hate social media but use it every day. YouTube too. I guess that’s why I get so mad when I see them act like that. It reminds me of me. People think the consequences of social media on a teenage girl are like "omg I was feeling good about myself….. but then I saw a model on Instagram… alas. I will never be her. I weep."

But it's more like: Oh my gosh, I just saw a post asking for mutual aid (aka MONEY, BABY) and I scrolled past. What if they died because they couldn’t afford food because I didn’t reblog their post? But what if I DID reblog their post, but it was a scam, and I led my followers to give money to someone who didn’t need it instead of someone who did?

I was hoping to share more examples, but I'm worried someone will misinterpret, and even though anon is off, the anon in my brain is on. always. on. i keep going back to the internet because i keep expecting it to get good again… like how it was. for some reason, i can't accept that it will no longer be my safe space. i wish i had a massive angel to keep me out, or something. like the actual garden of eden. I have to accept that it will never get better. I have not only an addiction to the internet, but to the obsessive thoughts it brings. By wishing it will get better, and continuing to use it, I am chasing a dragon. That is to say, I'm hoping for the same feelings I got from initially using the internet. No one ever catches the dragon. anyway, if you read all that... thank you so much! i'm taking a break from the internet, until mid november at least. maybe by then, it will be better. or not. we'll see.

Synopsis: (my dumb ass deleted the request on accident I'm sorry love!!😭😭😭😭 @smokeprincess24 ) original request: Can u pls do "taking a bath together" and "back scratches" with Kusakabe?

My Fall Masterlist 🍂

A/N: thank you for your patience on this and for requesting my love!!💕 All the love for the handsome wonderful criminally underrated Kusakabe 🥰

Words: 685

CW: MINORS DNI, SLIGHT SUGGESTIVE , X FEM!READER

"Are you gonna stare some more or join me, sweetheart?"

Kusakabe picks his jaw up off the floor. The steam rose quickly off the tranquil surface of the hot bath you were reclined so beautifully in, along with... something else of his.

He clears his throat and resumes peeling off his pajama pants.

"Course I am, doll..." He gives you a bashful smile before you lean forward and allow him to climb in and settle in the warm water behind you as the addicting reunion between your bare skins drew a deep sigh out of him.

His lips brush the top of your ear as he pools some water in the cup of his hand, before raising it and letting it gently trickle off your shoulder, leaving your skin silky from the floral soap. "Can't just disappear on me this morning then come in here lookin' like that n'expect me not to stare just a little..."

You turn your head, seeking out more closeness as he pulled you tighter against his chest, the peach colored water tinkling against the porcelain tub. "Sorry I did, baby. A morning bath just sounded too good to pass up. We needed this so badly..."

Kusakabe closed his eyes as his chin rested on the crown of your head, "I agree, love..."

He exhaled deeply while he focused on the lulling rhythm of the water, faint glow of candles in the window that contrasted with the forest green of the deep woods outside, and the soothing temperature that seeped into his veins from having you so close against him, skin on skin.

You stayed locked like that for a while, eventually washing each other's hair, then your fingers running softly in loving trails of gentle scratches on his back while you straddled his lap, careful not to aggravate the fresh red marks underneath, quiet smiles and sneaky glances traded between you both at the sexy memory of how they got there in the first place.

This fall getaway was like medicine for the soul. All the plans you had laid out were quickly cancelled one by one as you opted for a much more intimate kind of exploration in each other. Surely no surface of your temporary love nest was left unchristened or not tested to its limits in the time you stayed there.

"Well, we do have that fishing tour in a couple hours." You remind him quietly, thighs wound around his waist as you carefully traced his five o'clock shadow with a pruny finger. "We should probably actually leave the house for once."

"But you hate fishing." Kusakabe chuckles softly into your mouth as his nose playfully bumps against your. Lingering smell of mint you detect on his breath from when he brushed his teeth earlier.

"I don't hate it. I just find it boring." You hum. "But I'll suck it up for one day."

"Really?" He gently pinches your side. "No bitchin from you? I'm gonna need to see this for myself..."

"I promise, Kusa!" You giggle. "Knock it off, you're gonna make a mess."

"Mm, a little late for that..."

"Kusa, seriously." You shake your head. "I'm pretty much down for anything while we're on vacation but losing my satisfactory guest rating on Airbnb isn't one of them."

"Fair enough." He bestows you one of his silly grins. "I'm really excited for this fishing tour, not gonna lie. And you're letting me cook dinner tonight, right?"

Your stomach twists at your dislike of seafood. "Mmm...I dunno about that one, baby..let's take it one step at a time."

"You just haven't had proper seafood, doll." Kusakabe smiles. "I know a thing or two about preparing fish. I guarantee."

"Well... we'll see."

"Mm, that's not a no. I'll hold onto that."

"Well now that you requested something of me can I request something of you?"

"Mm, and what's that, darlin..?" He purrs while both hands cup either side of your pretty face.

"Five more minutes?" You pout your lips slightly in that adorable way that erased no from his vocabulary.

Kusakabe cracks a smile, leaning in before his soft lips tenderly collided with yours.

"I'll do you one better and make it ten."

[nightswithkookmin]

dear goldy, i think you have a cooler head than me, please tell me what's up with JK. I don't know... I feel anxious and irritable

Oh thanks I try, although I do have a nervous breakdown every fortnight.

This model of me is wack as hell. I need an upgrade.

But on to today's order of business

In today's episode of keeping up with the Bordashians, Jeon Jungkook who goes by J not Jk, J deleted his Instagram account.

Why?

Because he says he doesn't use it after going live on it

Yall didn't see that coming huh? No?

Yall thought him going live with Tae was the beginning of a new era of BTS doing Instagram lives and adding fans and other members? Yall were hopeful weren't ya?

How does it feel being a clown?

Just paint it on your face and we'll call it a day.

Yet when I say there would be consequences for him doing those spontaneous lives and IG lives I'm the crazy one

Well at least I'm not caught of guard by any of this🙂

Was expecting something to go wrong but damn- what a dramatic response 🤣

Listen, I'm always hoping for the best yet expecting the worst when it comes to these things😌

Hybe is predictable in that way

I'm gonna take a wild guess here and say someone at hybe probably called him in for one of those long meeting telling him about how he uses his account going live on whim and shit.

And JK being JK just alt del that shit cos nobody about to tell him what to do with his account.

What's the point of having IG if he can't do whatever he wants with it?

Keep messing with Jungkook find out🤣

The one thing that man hates more than anything is censorship I swear. I know he does!

And I know I have loose screws in my head but...

Dude is kinda unhinged

People have IG accounts to promote their music and content and sell to fans but noooo Jungkook just woke up one day and boom, it's gone.

All those following... gone

Not only is he now the least followed member of BTS on IG he has no followers at all😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

I refuse to believe it's because "He just isn't using his account"

Free Jungkook from hybe

Honestly I will take hybe downJK, just shoot the flare, activate the bat signal and it's done

I don't know man but I'm loving every bit of it

20 questions for fic writers

I was tagged on this by @unexpectedstormy ! I wasn't sure whether I was supposed to respond like it was a chain or make my own post, so I just went for it

1. How many works do you have on A03?

Two. There will be more coming, because Blood Drops on Roses is just arc one of this story, and there's a lot of snippets for Prologue floating around.

Blood Drops on Roses: Linked Universe

BDOR Prologue: The Yiga and The Sheikah

2. What's your total A03 word count?

51,493 words since mid-August, when I finally got an account XD I've been a lurker for YEARS ya'll.

3. What fandoms do you write for?

Linked Universe only, so far.

4. What are your top five fics by kudos?

See above XD I hope to get enough fics out there that I can sort my work like that, but for now it's just those two.

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

Yes, I respond as soon as I can, they are like crack to me. Maybe because I'm new to sharing my work or something, but I would die for each and every one of you that leaves even as much as a <3

6. What's the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

NONE OF MY FICS ARE FINISHED YET AAAAAAAAAA. Arc 1's ending is going to be pretty angsty though.

7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

Hm, I see that this questionnaire is not meant for me. There is a Prologue section "The Trap" that I'll be putting out soon through, its ending is pretty sweet I would say.

8. Do you get hate on fics?

Not yet. I am afraid that it's gonna happen, but so far everyone has been so nice, so I hope not D:

9. Do you write smut?

Nah. Don't really read it either. Just not my thing.

10. Do you write crossovers?

I mean unless you count LU as a crossover between all the Link's respective fandoms, no

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Gosh I hope not. How does one steal a fic?

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

Nope. If I ever get good enough at Spanish, I would like to take a crack at translating my own fic once its all published, but it would probably be laughably terrible. Eh, practice is practice.

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

Not yet. Hey @needfantasticstories, I think Clippy Wind and Pug Sky need to go on some adventures together, don't you?

14. What's your all-time favorite ship?

Tbh I don't really ship. I do think Malon/Time and Legend/Ravio are cute though. I'm just not really interested in exploring the romantic side of stories, even in published literature.

15. What's the WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

Geez I hope that I finish all of Arc 2 at this point. But I may be too early into the game to answer this.

16. What are your writing strengths?

Heck if I know. I had someone say in my comment section that they liked how I characterize people, so we'll go with that.

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

I write too much and probably in too much detail. Sometimes it would be better to say "They crossed the bridge and set up camp" but nooooooooooo lets add 7,000 words to this already bloated fic.

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?

Italics. I was about to whip out my decade of Latin for part of this fic, but I decided against it because I'm pretentious but not that pretentious. Also because I still don't understand word order at ALL.

19. First fandom you wrote for?

Now that I'm thinking about it, I think I have some fanfic from the dog series of Warrior Cats lurking somewhere that I wrote when I was like 12. Survivors, or something? I should probably go delete it, I'm sure it's trash. I'm scared to even look, it probably hasn't seen the light of day since I wrote it.

20. Favorite fic you've ever written?

Well I've only got one big fic out right now so let's go with BDOR

@needfantasticstories and @somer-writes I'm kicking this your way.

20 Questions for fic writers

I was tagged by @racerchix21 and @tizniz (retroactively lol) quite a while ago but I'm just now getting around to doing this.. This is the first time in forever I've been on a device that hasn't been my phone or ipad.

Tagging: @warpedpuppeteer @heroofshield @neverevan @daffi-990 uuhhh... and I guess anyone else who either hasn't done this or wants to do this. No pressure to the tagged people either.. just didn't know who to tag.

1-How many works do you have on ao3?

Currently.. 2.. 😅😅 I had 3 and one point but I deleted one thing that in the end I didn't like. HOWEVER I currently have about 4 or 5 WiPs that I'm hoping to maybe start posting some more stuff soonish if life stops getting in the way.

2-What’s your total ao3 word count?

7,803

3-What fandoms do you write for?

Currently: 9-1-1 (during my ff.net days I've also done some Stargate stuff as well).

4-Top 5 fics by kudos?

1-SIMPLE MISUNDERSTANDINGS 2-All is Lost Again (But I'm Not Giving In). 3-5: TBD lol

5-Do you respond to comments?

I try if I don't forget

6-What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

Haven't gotten around to one yet...

7-What is the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

It's probably gonna be one of my current WiPs lol

8-Do you get hate on your fics?

Haven't yet but I'm sure it'll happen with some of my ideas I've got planned.

9-Do you write smut?

Negative. Just don't think I can do it any kind of justice to be honest.

10-Craziest crossover?

Published or unpublished? 🤣 If we're going with PUBLISHED, then I had (guess it's still there) a Stargate Atlantis/Torchwood crossover over on ff.net. UNPUBLISHED.. well then we'll probably have to go with my Legends of Tomorrow/Power Rangers Dino Charge (It's a multiverse story that didn't feature the characters/crew in the show other than a mention here or there... that has now bled a bit into 911 territory as well) that may or may not ever see the light of day... Depends on my mood.

11-Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Don't think so. Nothing has probably ever been good enough to warrant theft haha

12-Have you ever had a fic translated?

No

13-Have you ever co-written a fic before?

Contributed some ideas but nothing more than that.

14-All time favorite ship?

Probably gonna get some hate here but... oh well.. -Chiley (Chase/Riley), Buddie (Buck/Eddie), Tevan (Buck/Tommy), Stackhouse/Markham (this was from Stargate Atlantis and let me tell you.. for two extremely minor characters, those two launched an impressive ship!! Hell they didn't even have first names!! And yes, I jumped in on that ship as well! Obviously since I'm mentioning it!)

15-What’s a wip you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?

Probably the Stargate Atlantis/Torchwood one... Or my "Silver Saber" story (Power Rangers Lost Galaxy.. My mind does drift back to that idea every so often but I doubt I'll ever redo anything with it.)

16-What are your writing strengths?

Creating the general idea/premise probably.

17-What are your writing weaknesses?

Actually putting thoughts into words that sound good.

18-Thoughts on dialogue in another language?

If it works/fits then I'm all for it I guess but... thats about it.

19-First fandom you wrote in?

Power Rangers.. I've always been the creative kid and I was writing fanfic BEFORE I even knew that was a thing.. I was just "writing stories" at that point lol

20-Favorite fic you’ve written?

Don't have one yet.. I like some of my ideas but I don't really have a favorite story YET to be honest.

Not part of the questionnaire thing but I'm thinking about starting a side blog just for writing stuff, the kinda give updates and share ideas even if I'm not able to get any actual writing or posting done... haven't decided fully yet.

[prehistoric-duo]

HELLO ROTOMBLR!!

It's your favorite MewTube Paleontologist Power-Couple, finally making an account on a social media site that isn't MewTube!

This is Taire- if you couldn't tell by my charming energetics (AKA Arnie didn't feel like making our introduction post lol).

I figure some of you don't really know who we are, if you don't find this blog from our description links, so why not talk about it real quick?

As I've said before, I'm Taire! I use he/him pronouns, and I'm 27 years old. Which, in my opinion, is actually not that old because I've worked with rocks older than uh. literally humanity? I have three Pokemon-

Rafflesia the Venusaur (She/her)

Geode the Sandslash (They/them)

Onoi the Omastar (They/them)

Here's my trainer card:

Arnie uses they/he pronouns, and is 26! He is like. My favorite person in the whole wide world and I love him so so so much and YES me gushing about him is a regular occurrence irl and in private. They also have three Pokemon-

Pablo the Torterra (They/them)

Grey the Aggron (They/Them)

Shelley the Carracosta (She/her)

Here's their trainer card:

We've been doing MewTube for about 3 years now, and married for 5! We work for an organization called The New Epoch Foundation as, you guessed it, paleontologists! The goal of the organization is to help further scientific research and runs mostly on donations! I might also end up as their head of social media because of the stuff we do on MewTube, we'll just have to see!

Of course, we can't forget about Baby Helix, we had them about a year ago and we love them so so much. We don't really post pictures of them, but maybe in the future? We aren't like. A family vlogging channel anyways (chills). We'll both sign off our posts!

Feel free to send us asks and pelipper mail! I'm hoping to be able to interact with the fans more this way :)

Hi! Mod here, just call me Vessel! ooc text from me will be red

My other blog is @canesvenatici-ribbons! But this blog is going to be more plot-based than slice of life ;)

A couple of ground rules:

1- I operate on DND and Improv rules: "yes and" and be respectful to other players.

That doesn't mean NO anon hate or whatever, it just means that if someone is playing a character in a way that makes me uncomfortable, I'm probably not going to interact with you. If the anon hate is egregious I'm going to stop responding to it, etc.

Typically I try to just go "yes and" to stuff, it's more fun to me that way and adds a layer of unpredictability to my stories- BUT- please DM me if you want to do BIG plot stuff (I don't bite!)

But if something makes me uncomfortable I won't do it, feel free to ask prior though if you want confirmation! If it's like. An overly dark subject matter I probably won't do it though.

2- No Magic anons or anon hate related to their identities please!

This is my one hard-stop! everything else like sentient pokemon, pelipper mail, regular anons, anon hate, is all fine right now!

3- Feel free to remind me to respond to a post or ask if I haven't gotten to it in about two days! I'm a college student and I'm really busy. I do this mostly for fun but I do really appreciate reminders. adhd brain

4- I want to confirm this rq cause I know people will ask about it- Helix is their biological child, one of them is trans but no actual like. Pregnancy is gonna be shown or mentioned on this blog because they think it's funny to keep it up in the air on who had Helix or if Helix is adopted. Trans families (no matter what kind) and seahorse dads are just. Very important to me as I am a trans guy/trans masc who wants kids myself one day. I expect you all to be respectful and mature about this. People who make M///pr///eg jokes and/or comments will be blocked and deleted.

Literally it's only funny with people I'm close with so if I don't know you, don't do that. This is my one other hard stop

Asks about who had Helix though- and speculation on if Helix is adopted, is encouraged and very funny!

I do plan on having actual references for the family done up at some point, I just haven't had the time or resources for it quite yet. But for now, here are their picrews + short add on descriptions! (Minus Baby Helix)

Taire:

Blue, Feathery hair, Oddly sharp teeth

Red, scaley patches of skin has grown in the three years of making videos- they started out small and almost unnoticeable and now it's beginning to take up their face.

Arnie:

DO NOT let this picrew fool you. Arnie is a large fat man. They also have a full beard that is not pictured.

Hair has turned white in the past few years. Blue Patch of skin over eye and looks strangely smooth, has only appeared since last year

What's your opinion on immobility/nearly immobile and stuff like mobility issues and waddling? Do you have any works or ideas with any of those in them planned? Love your writing ❤️

I love it 😩😩 the whole spectrum honestly from mild mobility issues to full on immobility, nothing too realistic on that end but yeah I love it!

I just always worry (the joys of anxiety) about being a way bigger pervert than most and I really hate getting comments/anons calling me sick or disgusting (I always delete them but I still have to read them for that, y'know?)

so yeah I usually keep the more extreme to private chats with people who I know are into it too 😅

though I do have some posts on here that contain mobility issues, off the top of my head:

The most recent part in the Fat Camp Bucky series

An extra about Fat Camp Bucky over lockdown

And Fat Camp Bucky outgrowing a shower stall

(lots of Fat Camp Bucky apparently 😅)

Lee Bodecker gaining weight after he survives the end of the movie

A drabble about feeder Lisa and Dean Winchester

and by other people

I gotta rec this incredible fic by @mylevisdontfitanymore about pre-serum Steve being as wide as he is tall 😩😩

also this fic by @epigstolary which is such a good progression of someone losing their mobility

and finally this fic by @a-deed-without-a-name about immobile John Winchester, that's actually kinda sweet

I probably forgot some fics 😅 but those are the ones I immediately thought of after reading the ask, also I'm gonna tentatively say yes, I want to post more fics with mobility issues, but we'll see how that actually goes, it's exam season rn and I'm stressed beyond reason haha

Melodic Misconceptions 🎹

Track 19: Filler yet again but there's a little Yuren so 👁️👁️

Synopsis: Victoria Shard was a former member of the popular idol group [ Poisoner ] from NRC corporations. After discourse with her group leader, Victoria decided it was best for her to leave and pursue her solo career in a record label run by her parents.

It had been half a year since her separation from her old group, and Victoria had never been more successful. But now she has a new problem. She must return to NRC corporations in order to mentor the seven idol groups.

Ellis Clawthorne is a member of [ (Co)-connect ] the most recent group under NRC'S belt. With no experience as an idol, Ellis must persevere in order to succeed and pursue her dreams.

Will both girls be able to adapt to their current situations?

✐ ✎_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_✐ ✎

Author's note: BAM. NEW TRACK (⁠｡⁠•̀⁠ᴗ⁠-⁠)���✧

I mean, sure, it's filler. But I kinda wanted to rest easy before the rest of the plot progresses, y'know?

On the other hand, I blame the "Melodic Misconceptions 🎹" discord server for making me so obsessed with Yuren 😭 Y'all have got me in a chokehold when it comes to Yuren-

Also, woo! A small glimpse of Zen and Ellis's podcast! I'm probably gonna try and do a couple segments that feature moments like that ^^

Anyway, I'mma continue revamping the SHI staff's profiles-

But other than that, please enjoy this track! Reblogs are recommended though :') gotta help out a fellow writer-

"Saw your music video, and was unsurprisingly impressed."

Victoria let out a hum, gently smiling at Circe."Thank you… It seems you and Jiyoon share the same thought." She commented, making him smile a little more.

Circe chuckled."Can you blame us? That song's Grammy-worthy material." He sent her an encouraging smile that was enough to widen her ghostlike one.

"I see…."

"Anyway, I saw those posts Zenith made about you and… A certain actor."

She inhaled, knowing where the conversation was going. Circe put down his guitar and sat a little closer to Victoria.

"...."

"Listen, I'm not judging you based on the kind of guys you're seeing, but-"

"Eh? Whatever do you mean?"

Circe deadpanned at her."Vic, I'm not gonna be rude here, but your chemistry with Aguri Harper is a little too strong. It's almost unsettling."

She squinted her eyes."Circe, don't get the wrong idea…" she murmured in response.

"I'm trying, but it's kinda hard not to assume you're in a relationship with that guy." He bit his inner lip in irritation.

Victoria sighed softly, gently ruffling his hair."I can assure you that I don't have that kind of relationship with Aguri." She promised. Circe couldn't help but notice her smile.

It became even more ghostlike. Almost invisible.

He smiled awkwardly, looking away."Right…. We'll just disregard the fact that you're on a first-name basis-"

"Circe!"

"Pffft-"

──ㅇ─────↻ ◁ II ▷ ↺───ㅇ────

Mayuu hummed proudly, satisfied with the success of her mentor's music video. She knew she didn't need to worry since she isn't Victoria's manager, but she couldn't help but want to support her nonetheless.

Yuuta snickered, playfully leaning his head against Miren's shoulder. The latter sent him a bewildered look."Looks like Mayuu's in a good mood~" Yuuta said.

Carol didn't bat an eye, refusing to look away from her book."Can you blame her? Any type of success for our group would be able to put Mayuu in a good mood." She replied emotionlessly, continuing to read her book.

Yuuta shrugged lazily, scrolling through Twitter before he frowned."I think we gotta start deleting the hate comments…" he muttered.

Miren raised a brow and looked at the contents of Yuuta's phone. Not long after, he frowned as well. Albeit with an irritated expression.

"I agree…."

Mayuu sighed."I'll take care of that issue. In the meantime, you all rest up before our next charity concert in the next couple of weeks." She pushed up her glasses, beginning to type in her phone.

"But on the other hand…" she sent Yuuta a look of disapproval."Stop flirting with Miren on Twitter. We don't need any rumors swirling around…"

Yuuta gave her an amused smirk."Can't help it, little miss manager. He's just too cute~" he teased, giving Miren a wink.

Ignoring his words, Chizuko looked around."Huh…. Where's Ellis?" She asked, expecting no answer.

Juvia walked inside, still in her pajamas."Oh, she's hosting a podcast with Mr. Zenith…" she quickly answered, walking into the kitchen for a cup of hot cocoa.

Carol huffed."Let's hope things aren't too chaotic…"

Yuuta rolled his eyes, leaning against Miren's shoulder once more and holding him affectionately.

"We can't guarantee that, Miss Ann.."

──ㅇ─────↻ ◁ II ▷ ↺───ㅇ────

Ellis cackled from the unexpected yet utterly hilarious joke Zen cracked.

"Hahaha! True, I couldn't help but find Carol running into a wall while reading, a bit amusing too!"

"Hehe, see?"

Zen leaned against his hand, giving Ellis a playful grin and a peace sign. To which Ellis responded with a heart sign.

She liked the podcast. Very much, actually. It felt nice to have a sort of side career aside from being an idol.

Being a podcaster made her feel a little free. To express herself more widely while discussing topics that she's always wanted to talk about. Even if they were a little odd.

Hell, Ellis loved being a podcaster. She just holds back her neverending joy about being one.

As Zen ended the podcast from there, he sent Ellis a happy-go-lucky-looking grin. And she easily sent him an equally playful smile.

Zen snickered."I'm liking this podcast thing so far. I could get used to this!" He exclaimed.

Ellis nodded, equally as enthused."Mhm! It's only been a week since we first started this weekly podcast, and I already love it." She commented, taking off her headphones and preparing to leave the room.

After picking up his phone, Zen sighed almost dramatically."We gotta hurry, though… Mayuu's gonna scold us for not coming back after our usual curfew.."

Ellis snorted."True- But other than that, I can't wait for our next podcast together!!" She cheered, fighting back the urge to jump up and down in a sort of childish manner.

Zen felt a pleasant smile grace his face.

"Yeah…. Can't wait to continue working with ya, Ellis~!!"

Put the chronological timeline back

Revert the text post tool to back when it was good

Revert the dash/thread format to back when it was good

Bring back the ability to edit previous replies as a treat. not just for rp, but for the danny devito/vampire level of chaos.

Replace the store and run crowdfunding campaigns as site-wide events with fun prizes and community voted merch.

You know what yeah you can even submit merch designs and we'll pay you for licensing if you win and you get to keep the copyright to your work, which I think would be very cool and encouraging for aspiring artists and designers.

Host site-wide contests with cash or physical prizes for fun and community engagement. Sometimes community voted, sometimes guest judged by volunteer professionals to help get eyes on your work.

Sell advertising to majority independent artists and companies

Run non-invasive banner ads on the side

Let users opt-in to hosting banner ads on their blogs for a portion of the click revenue

Bring smut back for users who opt-in to be verified and over 18

Tighten the hate speech policy

Give staff a raise and some more help running this place

See what we can do about shuttering bots bc I know that's a genuinely difficult issue to solve

Make the dm system less...like that.

Bring back xkit's outbox and make it a default feature

Make the tags work again probably

Probably sweep the blogs that haven't been logged into in a certain number of years again, for storage relief.

Delete blogs that have zero posts after 30 days (RBs ok)

Delete blogs that have < 10 posts after 90 days (RBs ok)

Re-prioritize the idea of collaborative blogging

Figure out how to encrypt photo uploads so they can't be scraped for ML systems. maybe an opt-in thing? maybe for writing also?

Have users disclose if their upload is aigen and remove posts (and users) that upload without disclosure

Detect for automation...ssssomehow.

Hire people who know how to do that last thing

Let people design their blogs without a permission slip

put the followed tags thing back on the side where you can see them i have adhd man i'm not clicking a subtle little tab to see tags i forgot i followed anyway. that's me that's my preferences.

EDIT bc Ree has good ideas

Get rid of the physical merch* store

Crabs can stay

verified stickers can stay

maybe add more silly badges and stickers to buy

ONCE AGAIN WE'LL START OUR STORY ANEW DON'T BE AFRAID I WILL BE WITH YOU I'M HERE REACHING FAR ACROSS THESE NEW FRONTIERS

I'm Here gave me so much brainrot for Sonic helping Spinbot out of being subservient to Lord Robotnik. secondary personalities are usually born out of a traumatic event, and meant to protect the host from that trauma. In Spinbot's case, the personality that was born out of trauma... was the "real" Sonic, even though technically Spinbot is the "real" one. It's complicated, but they are BOTH HIM. and while Sonic has every right to be pissed at Spinbot for all the pain he's brought, it's just not Sonic's M.O. to give up on somebody who was made this way. He's gonna give him the means to fight back and be his own person. Together.

"Be his own person" well, he's always gonna be Sonic now. They're gonna share that body and they're gonna try to fix the world without running from the past. Which leads to that post-endgame design, seen above.

Spinbot will never be a "good guy". He doesn't care about the world. His personality was personally edited by Lord Robotnik to bring out the worst, most selfish aspects of Sonic, and inhibit all the compassion, love and hope. And yet.... With the inhibitors destroyed, it allowed this other Sonic, this "true" personality to be free, without erasing the other one. Two vastly different Sonics in one body. Spinbot doesn't care about the world, but... he does care about Sonic. He's always very VERY obnoxiously loved himself, and now there's a more tangible part of that. He's the more capable fighter, while Sonic is the diplomat. It's not to say that Sonic can't fight, but they need to work in tandem with each other.

It would have been too easy to erase Spinbot. To punish him for everything he did while under Eggman's control. And at first, Sonic hated him-- but he came to understand that Spinbot was just as much of a slave to Eggman as any other robot. Maybe the most. If Spinbot were born evil and full of hatred, then why would Eggman need to inhibit his compassion? He told Spinbot that his AI was made from a copy of Sonic's brain scan, but in actuality, Eggman only edited Sonic's brain. Spinbot IS Sonic.

And once the inhibitors started to show signs of wearing down, due to EMP blasts, his brain created a new personality, a ghost of his former self. That Hero was still in there. In Sonic's mind, hating Spinbot would have been a victory for Eggman. So instead... he'd take responsibility for what was done with his body. And he would take Spinbot on as well, keep him around. They don't always get along, but they do look out for each other.

Spinbot may not see much point in any of it, but he can't help but be somewhat inspired that Sonic went through all of that effort to keep him around. Spinbot may not be able to feel compassion as strongly anymore, but there is a desire to protect that light.

(and also be an annoying piece of shit the whole time probably.)

[ okay to reblog, don't delete caption, don't repost ]

[erigold13261]

700 ASKS????? … at this point I think you should just start deleting everything that doesn’t interest you. /hj

I'm gonna be 100% honest with you... yea... I might just start doing that... Which I hate!

Like I really want to answer all of these asks, but I have this need to either answer with a drawing or to answer in a full, in-depth and deep response, which I can't do for every one.

So I just end up collecting them all and hope one day I will actually answer them but in the end I just can't make myself do it.

I have plenty I want to answer, but I feel like if I give short answers then I'm being cheap or not invested enough in other people's headcanons, ideas, or whatever else.

It's this stupid perfectionism and people pleaser in me that makes this happen (and probably some anxiety and executive dysfunction or whatever it's called). I don't know.

I'll go through the earlier asks and maybe some newer ones and just answer them hopefully soon. Maybe Thursday since that's another day off (I have tomorrow off but I NEED to not do anything and just relax. I want to draw but I might just watch movies to decompress or something, idk).

We'll see what I do or don't do.

[applctini]

RULES &&. GUIDES

GENERAL

i am a pretty flexible partner, but i can also be equally as slow when it comes to replying. i work anywhere from 32-42+ hours a week, this is a hobby not my life. as much as i respect your time in replying, please respect mine. never assume i've forgotten about a thread, because i promise you i haven't - i'm just a slow sloth.

i do not mind slight godmodding, as the characters of the hazbin/helluva verse are immortal, deities, creatures, etc. of supernatural origins. powers, strength, magic, voodoo, religion, all of it is bound to come into play one way or another. lucifer himself is an insanely strong being - he just doesn't use his power very often. the only thing that bugs me is others assuming what goes on in lucifer's head. the old cuck doesn't even know what's going in his brain except monkey banging cymbals.

no anon hate, i think that?? goes without saying lmao. it'll be deleted immediately. you can bully lucifer as much as you want, but i'm not tolerating that nonsense thank you.

YES !! those starter calls are for you baby! i want to interact with you. YES !! those memes i reblog everyday are for you !! i want you to pester me, lucifer, i adore having a full inbox because memes and asks are the BEST way to get my attention. you thinking you're not sure if it's for you? send in your own asks !! unprompted shit is my FAVORITE thing to see pop up on my phone as a notification. do it, bug me!! i'm not that scary, i am probably the biggest baby you'd ever meet tbh.

my icons are edited for me and me only, please do not take them, but i am more willing to share where i got the bases from so you can have your own !!

FOLLOWING

tbh i don't always look at my followers, i've been on this website since i was a kid. however that doesn't mean i'm not gonna follow you back. i mentioned i was slow, right? yeah, that - at most it takes me 2-5 days to follow back unless for some odd reason i really didn't see your follow. tumblr loves not notifying me anyways, so just keep that in mind !!

this is a roleplay blog. i will not interact with personals and i hope you respect that to not interact/reblog my posts. i won't block you so long as you respect this one thing i ask of. you're welcome to follow, read my things, but do not reblog anything from me that comes from me.

i don't do the whole follow-for-follow. that always annoyed me, it still does. i don't get it... just, no lmao. if i follow you, i wanna follow you. i wanna interact with you, not to just be a number.

OC's should NEVER feel discouraged with me !! my main multi is mostly oc's, i live off of oc's. i love them. i only ask that there's a base page where i can receive some sort of information on them - it doesn't have to be elaborate, but i wanna know them !!

TRIGGERS &&. NSFW

this blog will be heavy with mental health topics. it'll contain depression, panic disorders, anxiety, ptsd, thoughts of self harm, acts of self harm, martyr complex, and much more. if you are sensitive to these topics or anything you think might lead to these topics, please turn around and do not follow me. i tag everything, but this will be a big chunk of my blog regarding headcanons, certain threads, etc.

i adore writing smut, any forms of it, but i don't write it with strangers. it often comes with just shipping with me, which we'll talk about below. however, if we share a ship (or more !!) i don't mind writing it with you, any form, or at any time. i love the intimacy (or even lack there of oops-) when it comes to sharing a body with someone.

MULTISHIP YAY OR NAY?

YAY!! I am multiship*, i will gladly toss this clown around to anyone like the switch he is lmao.

i love ships, but i also ship with chemistry. i don't like forcing myself to fall for a ship that doesn't hit me and i wouldn't want to do that to a partner either !! it's easy to be a people pleaser on this site, but don't be afraid to tell me if something isn't working for you, i don't take any offense to it. we're all adults here, we can talk like them with our big words.

*i will mention more about my shipping in this post.

WRITING

i write typically from para to novella, occasional crackhead behavior here and there with one-liners. my asks usually wind up on the longer side falling into drabble territory because i love setting a scene, describing such little details that it's probably annoying lmao. you don't have to match me word-for-word, but i would appreciate if length was kept to similar status.

WHAT ABOUT YOU?

me? i'm star, i'm 24 turning 25 currently. i work in retail, like i said i can be very busy during my workdays and may not always be available here. if you have my discord, don't feel discouraged to message me there, or even here if you don't. i will always try to make time between watching my department to reply to you. i'm often closing on my shifts, so usually by the end of the night i'm more eager to reply and like a chirping bird most nights. i'm under EDT currently (UTC -4H) so you can gauge my days.

[troglobite]

well i finally completed every single nook miles achievement in acnh

posted a video for proof on twitter

hopefully that hyperlink works bc i hate how tweets embed

anyway my last achievement was attending 100 K.K. concerts. for the final concert, i dressed up in the same outfit that katt was wearing (she's my original sisterly, she's been on the island since i started it back in march 2020, and i love her dearly) and i asked K.K. to play K.K. Disco, bc that's katt's favorite song ☺️

got a little video of it in recognition

and it was nice bc i also had a campsite visitor on the day, and it was bea! i didn't take her bc i have her on my other island/switch, but it was v sweet!

also my switch's memory is full up 😬 lol gonna need another memory card if i keep going at this rate--but i probably won't now that i've completed all of the achievements.

basically i was playing through a couple days each week to get to the K.K. concert for the week

along the way i let ione and sasha move out and get replaced w kiki and shep (kiki is a little meh, though i LOVE how i redesigned her house, but shep is v sweet, so idk if i'll let kiki leave if she asks to in the future? maybe not? but if i get a perfect villager in the campsite i'll take em) and then i played every single day to give them gifts so i could get their photos--and THEN i played every single day to give them their new wardrobe. lol

officially, in-game, i'm on june 17th

so i'll play a few days each week and then will set to figuring out what i wanna do w the island design-wise. i tore down what i'd built for sasha after he moved out. what i have for maddie is super crowded. katt's farm takes up a LOT of space and i wanna redo the orchard. the entrance is meh. i tried reworking in front of the plaza but i haven't decorated it. i did move my shakespeare in the park theater but it's hard to access now. i did finally make the beach fish market (feels incomplete, though) and the sushi restaurant. i gotta move (or delete?) my second account's house bc i don't like where it is. gotta move kiki's and shep's houses. lots of terraforming to do and futz around with. i like the ideas i had for builds, but they just got crowded & didn't fit & the terraforming is rough. i might just keep it simple and symmetrical. though i did try that once and it just looked weird. so. idk. i'll figure it out.

anyway. i did it. my original island has completed all possible achievements. as you can see in the video, i have over 520k nook miles. i still have my two starter villagers (katt and roald--i'm considering letting roald move, but i worry that no one would want him and i DO NOT want to void him, i'd be devastated, so we'll see)

i have ~35 million bells

i also completed HHP

and the museum (which you have to do to earn all of the nook miles achievement stamps)

my catalog is huge, but my storage is FULL (almost) so redecorating and ordering things would be a big undertaking

i think i might build more vacation homes for my darlings

the sad thing is i built a vacation home for aurora, and then i let her move off of the island and now on HHP she doesn't remember me :(

anyway.

i feel accomplished in a v silly way.

i "completed" the game. now i get to just vibe and design my island and hang out w my cute villagers.

the current populace is (in order of when they moved to the island): katt, roald, vivian, goldie, maple, poppy, maddie, dobie, kiki, and shep.

i'd love to take punchy or purrl if they showed up

previous denizens of illyria include: rhonda, benedict, flora, claudia, tammy, agnes, joey (we don't talk about joey), huck (we DO NOT TALK ABOUT HIM), audie, pinky, blanche, aurora, rosie, lopez, wolfgang, whitney, shino, sasha, and ione.

katt, roald, rhonda, benedict, and flora were my original 5. then huck [hisses] and then vivian & claudia. gets hazy after that who arrived in order. all i remember is that i got goldie to replace huck in 27 tickets, and idr who moved out for me to move maple in, but i found her in 6 tickets.

the ONLY amiibo card villager in there is ione. i found literally everyone else on a NMT island (including shino and sasha), in the campsite, from someone off nookazon, or they were an autofill [stares angrily at joey]. oh no wait, poppy was from a friend of mine. they found poppy on an island & took her purely bc they knew i was looking for her. and before they deleted their island save to start over, they got her to ask to move out so i could take her.

blanche (my birthday twin!), rosie, lopez, and kiki were, i think, all campsite villagers i moved in. and everyone else i found on an island OR on nookazon. but i think....yeah i'm pretty sure the only nookazon villager on illyria was aurora? and it was fitting bc then i traded her on nookazon to someone else who was THRILLED to have her, so i was happy she went to a nice home. ☺️ full circle, y'know.

my OTHER island is populated almost entirely by nookazon villagers. lol villager hunting went very poorly over there. i only found bones and sally on my own--everyone else came from nookazon trades. or--no, wait, i think i found bea on my own, as well.

anyway

i just scrolled through all my saved pictures on my switch and jfc what a trip down memory lane

i do remember having to sacrifice a LOT of pictures bc i kept running out of memory :( but a lot of good ones are still there, so at least there's that.

but it looks like i deleted everything of pinky bc i completely forgot abt her until i was "done" w the list of previous villagers. lol

so yeah. acnh. 3 years and change worth of investment and fun and sweet memories. i'm really glad for this game. i love katt so much, she's just the absolute fucking best. she deserved to have my final of the 100 K.K. concerts be her favorite song ☺️

[enchantechante]

Hey Tae and hey last anon! This gonna be long :

Anon...THOSE ARE NOT YOUR PEOPLE!!!PERIODT!!!

Sis,when I was reading your message,I saw soooo much of my OLD self in it(years 2012-2021 to be exact).I WAS that woman who was ALWAYS there for EVERYONE no matter how I was treated in return.I would ALWAYS come up with excuses when it came to the treatment of being treated as if I WASN'T important in other people's lives. I would be like...oh,well MAYBE they are busy and have a lot going on? Because that's life and all of us go through shit even if it's not mentioned. But man,listen! I was really playing BOO BOO THE FOOL! Two of my EX bestfriends got away with soooo much because I knew they really were going through so I let things slide then they started skating on a bih! Lol. I heard the same excuses... I got a lot going on,I forgot to call you back man you know my memory bad,I thought you probably didn't want to talk,I know you hate talking on the phone,I was depressed,you could've called me,I lost your number etc.

Like,say what? I was there for both of them when I barely had and was struggling to get on my feet!Even when one of them was locked up(he was the most ungrateful and in the end thought he was better than me, picture that,lol) and the others mom passed/he was jobless and without a home,I WAS THERE TEN TOES DOWN because that's what real friends do!

I provided money,years worth of time, support and inspiring them daily to not lose their shit!I tried to get my guys to eat better etc.

While I was working two sometimes three jobs six days a week,mom battling cancer,uncle ill, catching cabs to and from because my car broke down, depressed for real, struggling with being bipolar,hair coming out ,skin breaking out etc.

Meanwhile,they would NEVER text or call me to check and see how I was,my mom,NOT NOTHING!

I felt worthless and was considering suicide!I had no one to turn to other than talking to God and my sweet mama.

I woke up one morning and said fuck it!Fuck my so called friends and fuck my mindset!I told myself it was time to make a change in EVERY part of my life and I did!

I deleted their numbers and blocked them on social media including a couple others.I focused on myself for seven months.I lost weight(85 lbs),got my money up, credit right,fell in love with ME and met amazing people.I even got started with real estate.When I think about that I laugh.WHY?Because one of my EX friends is the one who made it seem like I wouldn't make it in real estate because he knew more than me and at the time,had more connections than I did.GUESS WE'LL NEVER KNOW BECAUSE I'M JUST GETTING STARTED AND ABOUT TO PURCHASE LAND! 😩🤭😂

It's crazy how life will turn around in a positive way once you release what's not meant for you and also FOCUS ON YOU!

What's also even more crazy is more than likely you will cross paths with those SAME people who treated you like shit and took you for granted once you really get your life together!

And when that happens,still SAY FUCK EM!Ain't no spinning the block on a REAL good person who IS genuine and did EVERYTHING out of love and NEVER counted them favors!You'll see what I mean baby girl!Release everyone who makes it seem as if you're too hard to love or show up for!Nothing is wrong with you!I wish you the best with EVERYTHING!and once again,FUCK ANYBODY WHO DON'T POUR INTO YOU LIKE YOU DO THEM. Leave them where they had you fucked up at boo! PERIDOT!!! 😉

me, cackling through the mssg 😂:

yall are hilarious!

And thank you for this thoughtful response.

Youve caught on to something really empowering & often hard to see at times like this.

Our love and care are powerful.

Pouring out for ppl who only take (regardless of the reason) will drain you. Not just during those interactions, but draining you of energy that could make a real difference in your own life.

Creating boundaries w ppl, like blocking them on social media, closes that drain.

We decide how long we suffer w bad friends. We need our own friendship deeply, before anyone else.

i love yall sm
