ARCANE S2 SPOILERS!!!
****
I cannot be the only one who cannot fathom how people even blame Vi for Jinx's death.
"She could've jumped onto the other ledge." My guy she did not look okay.
I do think this is something the writers could have done better, and I really wish they actually went into Vi's traumas and mental health issues, because we know she has a mental illness similar to Jinx's (I don't rlly want to put a label onto it) but the writers barely touch upon it and so the audience don't have a good understanding of how it affects her. I think that's why so many people sympathise with Jinx, but because it's not really touched upon with Vi its not something they consider like they do with her sister.
She's clearly not I the right state of mind, I don't think she had been for the whole season and whether it's something intentional or not it's glaringly obvious.
At this point she had lost Vander two times ALONE, obviously she's going to try and reach out because that's incredibly in character for her.
She literally gets a flashback, PTSD or not (which she definitely has) this should show that hmm maybe she isn't in the best state of mind rn so she might do something in a way to comfort herself (aka cling onto her father figure). Vi and JINX had just fought him too, that's going to do some damage yk.
This is the one time her trauma actually kicks in and she loses her last family members because of it. She isn't acting like this for giggles yk, and people will critique her for trying to hold onto Vander when he's gone but again, she isn't in the right state of mind.
Anyway thanks for reading if you did, really needed to get that off my chest 💀💀
#violet arcane#arcane s2#people need to stop criticising her for responses that are very easily explained#Give her a BREAK#jinx arcane#vander arcane#I'm so fed up of it#Give Vi her family back#Don't get me started on the ending as well#She's very clearly not okay guys 💀💀#arcane s2 spoilers#spoilers /

Soup solves everything.
#dungeon meshi#dungeon meshi spoilers#Senshi#izutsumi#chilchuck tims#laios touden#marcille donato#THE SOUP CHAPTER HAS BEEN ANIMATED#I have so many thoughts about senshi's backstory and how much that experience has shaped who he is.#This is such a powerful moment because it makes it clear how *stuck* senshi has been because of his trauma.#Up until now he has been a mystery! He's the chef guy! Don't worry about his apparent reclusiveness from society!#Don't worry about his intense need to make sure 'the young ones are fed'!#Senshi still has a lot of healing but this was the moment he could finally forgive himself.#This chapter is so important to me because sometimes you truly do need to face the most terrifying things to move past them.#This joke here is a bit too narrow to be funny for the masses...but mdzs fans know.#MDZS :handshake: Dungeon Meshi: Soup moment.#Laios and Jiang Yanli have a powerful magic call "Eat some soup and maybe you'll feel better'#That is also a spell you can cast upon yourself. Go eat some soup and you will feel better. Merry Soupmas everyone.#One more week of Thistle Thursdays....I'm not ready to say goodbye B*(

edit (10/23/2024) now that the poll is over: Original version, with 10 questions, from April 2023 here
And, given that the original is from April 2023, that means I can very easily say:
No, this was not an ISAT reference!
Just because I use parentheses and 2nd person pov and love the same concepts of what a time loop can do to a person doesn't mean it's ISAT
(Yes, I like ISAT, the original poll is why I was recommended the game! But if you look at the original, you can see all the origins of the options to choose from, including what spurred me on with the moss option from the replies)
If I were going to make something for ISAT, I would never be so vague, you can simply look at my ao3 for proof of that
#egg speaks#writing#polls#my writing#egg writes#my polls#poetry#time loops#listen I want to run this again#time loop poll#<- check that tag on my blog for the original 10 option version lmao#unreality#you know I didn't think I'd get fed up with people making isat jokes about this#I thought it'd be like oh hey neat same hat#we both like the same game#but people keep going “oh this is JUST an ISAT reference”#as if it's not a genuine work of creativity I did myself. it feels a bit devaluing#“op you played isat” yes but that came after the original!!!!!#I KNOW it's not meant like that but I want people to engage in my work as its own thing. you can make jokes about similar media!!!#but this is it's own thing!!!!#I want people to like it for what it is. I want people to enjoy it outside of other media. I want it to stand on its own#I'm flattered someone said it was good enough that they think it could be narration from the game and read just as well!!!!#but like. idk. all the other medias popping up (pmmm. orv. higurashi. etc) aren't people calling it a /reference/#if I wanted it to be an ISAT reference I would have tagged it originally. I would have targeted it toward ISAT fans more intentionally.#I love fanworks but this was an ode to time loops alone. I wanted people to think. to have to CHOOSE. I wanted PARTICIPATION#time loops as a narrative and as horror and as a group activity via polls on tumblr. also s/o to the person who said 40 hr work week so tru

thinking about a kinich who is always around the corner when you need something 🙁🙁
oh someone is hitting on you?? will pull them aside (if he doesn't already confront them first) and threaten kindly remind them that you're off limits!
some hillichurls are attacking you?? he's either swooping you away or jumping in front of you, taking them out in one blow.
it doesn't matter if you have a vision or not, he'll always make some type of excuse to protect you. (if ajaw doesn't make a comment first.)
you need to reach something?? he's not that tall but he's already doing some spider-man shit to get you the item.
+++ um he definitely has done the spider-man kiss thingy at LEAST once. idc (i actually need someone to draw that i might die without it)
sigh i love kinich guys 🙁
#── ꒰ order up! ꒱ ౨ৎ .ᐟ#genshin impact#genshin#genshin x you#genshin x reader#character x reader#kinich#kinich x reader#kinich x you#kinich x y/n#drabble#ily kinich#also hi... i'm back temporarily#i've been thinking about kinich a LOT so um#hope yall are fed#💗

Soft Yandere! Veteran being pegged! (No. You're not on top.)
How long has it been since I promised a male reader pegging this old dude? Uhhhhh... 😢
How about we not think about that and like- uh- focus that it got done? I have absolutely wonderful pookies that motivated me to finish this so let's all thank my lovely alphas for this! I wanted this to be on kinktober but writer's block and all dat- 😄
This has pegging. Which is in the title. It's clearly NSFW. So like-
MINORS DNI. MINORS DNI. MINORS DNI.
Alright! Now that that's all said and done! Enjoy fucking this old man!
TWs: overstimulation, condescending behavior towards reader, cum play, nipple play, I think that's it- comment if I forgot something pls-
WORD COUNT: 1.6K
KINKTOBER DAY ONE: TEMPERATURE PLAY
Pleasure. That’s the only thing you could possibly be thinking of right now. With your dick shoved into his ass, yet he was the one in full control of this situation. It didn’t matter that it was your hands on his hips— no. Your hands were just finding a place to grab onto while he rides you like he’s trying to drain you dry of both cum and life. This had to be why he looked like a silver fox, right? Stealing the vitality of the poor youth that got caught in his seductive ways. Which, in this case, was unfortunately and fortunately you. It was so warm inside him, the slowly cooling water only accentuating just how much more warmer he was— both from the soft walls that were clenching onto your dick like a vice, and from his skin. The wrinkled, aged skin that only made him even hotter in your eyes. White mixed with black hair on his arms just like his head.
Your eyes tear up from the sheer euphoria he was giving you, tongue almost shamelessly lolling as your mouth stayed open. If it wasn’t for that familiar, irritatingly enchanting glint in the old man’s eyes— moan after loud moan would have been falling off your kiss-bitten lips by now.
Speaking of lips, the reason for your current dilemma was now sliding his thumb over your bruised lower lip. His other hand goes to caress your cheek, the warmth forcing a groan to slip from you without warning. He notices the drool that threatened to leak, using it to coat your dry lips— dry from the heavy breaths you forced yourself to take as he rode you.
“Why aren’t you saying anything? Cat got your tongue?” He chuckles out as you try to focus a glare on him, pathetically failing due to your vision blurring from the incoming tears. His hips suddenly slam down onto you; a brash, animalistic noise leaving you as you’re buried down to the hilt.
Heaven. This must be what heaven felt like.
Your hands scramble to grab onto his hips, grip almost bruising as if he was the only thing grounding you to reality right now. The almost hypnotic grinding of his groin towards yours not helping with the way your mind wanted to shut down immediately. The cool water, the heat from your combined breaths, the way his hands left trails of fire with every inch they grope your skin— there was just so much for your poor brain to handle.
It honestly felt like you were being used as a dildo with how little work you were doing for maximum pleasure. To be honest, you would happily live your days out as his dildo if that was a choice. His raging hard-on kept on rubbing against your stomach, pre-cum and bath water slick on your skin.
Water droplets dripped down from your hair as you chewed on your lower lip— eyes laser-focused on his cock. His cock that you wanted to touch and feel in your hands. Your left hand lets go of his hip just for it to tentatively stroke his neglected dick; the heat in your palm making you shiver in the water. Thumb slowly tracing circles along the slit of its head, pre-cum continuously dripping down to your wrist and into the already cloudy cold water.
You didn’t want to be the only one losing their head, determined to make him fall into this mindless pleasure you were presently in too. You wanted him to bear himself out like you were doing, to show you the raw, primal instincts that you also had. To the point where manners would be shoved aside, and the two of you would just take and take from each other.
His pace noticeably slows down at the growing pressure of your strokes— hand slowly, yet purposefully, running down his entire length. Fingers smearing the thin fluids along the veined skin, feeling it throbbing in your hands. You could hear the way his heart quickens to the same -if not faster- pace of yours, could see the lust-induced haze in the corners of his eyes.
You use this chance to buck your hips up without warning, relishing in the way his throat hitched. Hand reaching down to squeeze his aching balls that were full of cum ready to be released. Your own cock twitched inside him, not faring better than him— overstimulated, needy, desperate: those were the words that could perfectly describe your deafening thoughts at the moment.
Right when you think that you’ve managed to win this unspoken game between the two of you, his lips curve up into a grin. His eyes held a knowing glint, as if he could read what was exactly on your mind right now— it felt like he was stripping you with his gaze despite your nudity. Crow’s feet deepened while his eyes held an obvious twinkle of mischief.
You should’ve remembered that unspoken games have unspoken rules.
He brings his roughened hands up from the water, skin ice-cold from being in the water for too long. His hands sensually slide up your body -your warm skin prickling from the cold- until they stay on your chest. He could probably feel how hard your heart was pumping right now, wrinkled palm right on top of it. Your eyes meet: calm meeting with panicked, smug meeting with wary.
Rule #1: He’ll always be in charge.
Your back arches when his weathered fingers pinch your nipples— senses confused as warmth floods inside your body, yet everything outside is cold. A gasp-like moan involuntarily leaves your lips, lips formed into an o-shape as your grip on his cock tightens reflexively. A deep groan escaping him as well from the squeeze, cool fingers still refusing to stop as he twisted your nipples almost painfully.
Another, louder, moan is forced out from your vocal cords when his head dips down— lips clamped onto one of your nipples, rough stubble grazing against your wet skin. You couldn’t help but come when his hot tongue swirls around the sensitive nub, teeth grazing against the already tortured skin. Eyes rolled back once again for what felt like the hundredth time. Your other nipple, receiving the same cruel treatment with his icy fingers. He definitely felt when you came; the water significantly more opaque as your cum dripped down his thighs and into the tub you were both in. Your cock still painfully hard in him despite coming just a few seconds ago.
Rule #2: You’re the bitch. Not him.
His eyelashes flutter when he finally releases your nipple from his soft lips, fingers already tweaking it before you could even sigh in relief. Your hand quickly lets go of his cock to grab onto his steel reinforced hips for bearing again— forehead pressed against his chest as you whine for him to stop.
“Why are you moaning, лапочка? I’m the one with your dick in my ass so why are you acting like our positions are reversed, little one?” Fuck. His dirty talk only made you want to beg him for more.
Your moans only get louder as he pulls on your nipples, drool pouring out from your lips like you were a brainless zombie— lips unable to remain closed. Shivers ran across your entire body, body trembling from both the cold and your overused cock. You were sure that you were only shooting blanks by now, every pathetic squirt easily seeping into the cloudy bathwater. You’d need to take a shower afterwards to clean all the come off you.
Rule #3: Don’t ever expect to walk after he’s done.
A choked whimper leaves you when he finally pulls himself off you agonizingly slow, your limbs feeling like jelly by now. You didn’t resist when he brought you into his arms, mind a slurry of contradicting sensations and abused instincts. Your eyelids drooping when he captures your lips in his, the kiss a slow, but careful one— everything he did had a reason and was meticulously planned out. A likely habit from his youth.
“You did so well, Солнце. Such a good boy for me. I’m so proud of you~” He croons out in a heavy voice, peppering kisses all along your face as his scarred hands snake up to your neck— his touch tender as he strokes your warming face. His own, ignored, cock still stiff and raised while he pampered you with the kisses you desperately needed right now. Your voice just whines for more of his attention, arms wrapping around his cold body to pull you closer to him.
The two of you just stay in the chilled bathwater for a moment, clinging onto each other for warmth as your labored breaths become background white noise. His lips trail down to your neck, pressing kisses onto your frigid skin— your breath hitching as his tongue slips out to run a fiery trail of saliva up to your jawline. An almost hissed out groan leaving his lips when he tastes the cold salt on your skin.
His eyes looked practically feral at this point, licking his lips clean of your taste before he crashed his lips onto yours to share what he thought was his own heaven. Swallowing down all your moans and whimpers like a starving man who finally got a feast laid out in front of him.
He reluctantly breaks from the kiss for the both of you to breathe. His hot breaths harsh on your skin as he leans his lips closer to your ear— whispering at a volume where you could only hear even if there was no one else around you two. A little secret that only you would know with him.
“As sweet as ever, Милый.”
Translation:
Солнце = sunshine
лапочка = sweetie pie / cutie
Милый = dear / darling
A/N:
Damn. I honestly didn't think this pegging would win. It was honestly included as both a joke and the consequence of staying up too late for too many consecutive nights... (Y'ALL TORTURED ME. THIS WAS SO HARD TO KEEP THIS OLD MAN'S HOLIER THAN THOU ATTITUDE WHILE BEING RAMMED!!) 😟
There. Y'all got to fuck the old dude. Happy now?? But anyways please comment anything you want me to do. (It'll take time, though. I'm not chat GTP okay?) 😩
Just no vomit, scat, and the works okay? Golden showers are a hell no too. Look. I'm not going to kink shame here, but I cannot write anything like that due to my BOUNDARIES. Non-con, baby trapping, and other dark matters are fine. I love that shit. But yeah. Maybe I'll make another OC, maybe not. It really depends on my mood. 😘

dandadan fills the well-written-female-characters shaped hole in my heart.
#*head scratch* well#i mean i had to say it#you can't blame me you know where i came from#but i mean even with all the other shows i casually tune into. dandadan stands out a lot 😭#this also helps the (equally well-written) dynamics between female characters!#it's so surprisingly refreshing considering it's an action shounen#but ahhhhh i'm not even close to catching up with the latest manga release and man...even with acro-silky and turbo granny's backstory aside#it's so lovely to see how well the female characters are written outside of major plot-progression events#i'm so excited to keep reading you have no idea like.#AND THE ROMANCE????? THE ROMANCE!!!!!! oh my god.#i've heard about the intensive research that went into writing it and IT WAS WORTH IT WOW#DORKS IN LOVE#dandadan#i feel like a starved dog fed well for the first time in a long while.

yanqing to yunli: you see how i wield my sword in a fight? very demure. very mindful. i don't fight like a brute with no finesse. i'm very mindful while i'm at a sword fight. see how i calculate my movements? a lot of you come to the training ground swinging like a berserker and then enter the battle flailing like an amateur. not demure. i'm very disciplined, i'm very mindful. you see my stance? balanced, ready, not overextending. be mindful of why you were trained.
#hsr#honkai star rail#yanqing#yunli#i'm sorry i am also fed up with the word demure it's just that in my brain this sounds funny so i need to post this#t

One thing that really pisses me off is the people who ONLY bring up collective action of any kind to try to shut down anyone suggesting that people do literally anything to try to improve a systemic problem. (Except maybe voting. A lot of these types love to talk about how voting is the only thing you can really do.)
Like over half of the times I've seen this "well actually, individual actions don't make much difference" phenomenon, it's been in response to calls FOR collective action, calls TO organize, or to join and support existing mass movements.
(I've literally seen people call it "Americanized individualism" for an existing activist movement to ask people in general to take part in an organized boycott!)
The whole point of collective action is that a lot of individuals pulling in the same direction, and encouraging others to join in and help out, can make a big difference.
The whole point is to direct your efforts to areas where you can get a whole lot of other people pulling the same direction as you!!
It's not "well I'm not literally 20000 people so I guess I can't do anything at all!!
(and if you try to do anything (or worse, ask me to do anything), you must just not understand about collective action 😌)"
#sorry i'm pretty sick and fed up so this may not be super coherent but ykwim??? i'm sure u've seen them#drives me batty#thatdiabolicalfeminist
