i'm so confused rn, can you explain the goncharov thing?? i get off tumblr for five minutes

(Edits closed as of 28 Nov.)

Lmaoooo

Nah I getchu. So this post has been circulating for like two years:

Link to post.

But yesterday, it had inspired someone to do this:

Link to post.

Next thing I knew there were fake Letterboxed reviews.

Goncharov moodboards. Really good ones.

Link to post.

Meta analysis. So many fake meta essays. Disturbingly good ones. And of course the memes. (Edit: HAVE I SAID THIS SHIT IS DISTURBING)

As you can see, the myth just started to grow, characters and ships and tropes being added one after the other, almost bizzarely without contradiction, until there was enough of shape to the whole thing for people to start posting fanfic about it on AO3. "No beta we die like ice-pick Joe" is already a tag.

Link to post.

It was hilarious in the beginning, but the way it's developed within less than a day, kind of like it's being willed into existence, is freaking me out a bit. We're toying with powers beyond our comprehension. 😂😂😂

Link to post.

Of course, there could be an ulterior motive as well.

Link to post (tags mine).

Edit: guys, please tag these posts "unreality" so people with disassociation issues can filter them out (not this one, this is an explainer). <3

----------------------------------------------

Edit 2: Aparently the boots in the original post are actually referring to a movie called Gomorrah that came out in 2008, directed by Mateo Garrone, based on the Scampia Feud. And other people had also been making posts about the fake movie for a while before the poster took off.

found by @thepotch

Edit 3: Explainer: why did those boots have this movie on them anyway?

Edit 4: Alt text added to all images courtesy of @valentineish ❤️

Edit 5: Turns out tumblr has done this kind of thing before. Nine years in this hell place and I had to have "Squiddles" and penis smp explained in the replies.

Edit 6: This post collects the Lore so far.

Edit 7: Lynda Carter (real one)/ earns more/ Tumblr cred.

Edit 8: Holy shit y'all we have the theme music. With sheet music. And it's on Spotify!

Edit 9: THERE IS A TRAILER WITH THE THEME MUSIC

----------------------------------------------

I made this post 18 hours after the movie poster went up. Closed edits 27 hours after first posting. So all of the above happened within 45 hours of the movie poster going up.

Edit 10: Google document live-compiling all the lore so far (Day 3)

Edit 11: Masterpost of Goncharov soundtracks (Day 3)

Edit 12: Entertainment news articles covering the Gonch-posting (real) (Contd from yday)

Edit 13: The music from the masterpost all compiled into a 31-minute original score with video edits on YouTube (edit: unfortunately taken down)

Edit 14: Staff's Goncharov art showcase for Tumblr Tuesday

As of closing on Day 3 there are 371 works in the AO3 tag.

Updating with Day 3 shenanigans I missed yesterday:

Edit 15: Goncharov TV Tropes page

Edit 16: Ethics of Gonchposting

Important PSA 1 (how to reduce harm to Tumblr's neurodivergents)

Important PSA 2 (reality affirmation, anti-bullying)

Important PSA 3 (why you should stop trying to vandalise legit information sites)

Edit 17: Character lore from beezlebub whose poster they originated from

Edit 18: What we know about/ Director Matteo JWHJ0715 (#unreality)

Edit 19: Link to post with screenshotted and described NYT article (scroll down) and this golden exerpt from BuzzFeed: 💀

(alt text included)

End of Day 4 there are now 485 works in the Goncharov tag on AO3

----

Didn't get to update this on Day 5, so these are the Day 5 doings:

More trailers!

Trailer 1 (My favourite)

Trailer 2

Trailer 3

Trailer 4

I also just found out about the Goncharov Game Jam.

It appears this opened a day after after the meme took off.

Goncharov was first entered into Wikipedia between Day 4 and 5 (attempts to vandalise it with fake info don't count, incidentally – please knock that shit off) under List of Internet Phenomena. This was then expanded into its own Wikipedia page at the end of Day 5 because, according to the talk history: "the topic now meets the notability threshold for its own artice due to significant coverage in The New York Times and other sources cited." We're on Wikipedia, people!

And then we made The Guardian half a day later. So while the meme is definitely dying down to embers by now, it still stays winning.

YouTube channels with episodes on the meme:

InformOverlord (4:30)

Lessons in Meme Culture (2:43)

End of Day of 5 there were 511 works on AO3, and End of Day 6 (today) there are 556.

🚨BREAKING 🚨 from Martin Scorsese's daughter's TikTok (real actual)

tw: unreality:

We did it you guys!

Clarification: Francesca Scorcese asked her Dad about the meme and Martin played along. Please reblog this PSA to help Tumblr people with psychosis. Thanks.

Final edit: Day 8. Media reactions to Scorcese's TikTok (everyone from Forbes to Vulture). That one Tumblr user who said they'd do a screenplay if their post got notes has promised to shoot a single scene, but please don't be dicks just because you reblogged it; leave them alone until they get around to it themselves. As of end of Day 8 there are 609 works in the AO3 tag. I love all you lunatics. Peace! ❤️

[crest-of-gautier]

EVP 999 reached on bone rattle arena! this makes my third gold map badge (my other two are jammin salmon junction + gone fission hydroplant!). i'm really happy to have been able to get this badge, it took 50 jobs starting from EVP 300 to get here.

the short of my thoughts is that it's important to take lots of breaks! but i have some other things related to salmon run and my journey with it in the past year that i want to share, so i'll put that under the cut 👍

i've only really grinded salmon run "seriously" since march 2023, and i only really attempt pushes on map rotations that i find favorable (it's important to have fun and having weapons you like help a lot!). and trying to get these map badges is a lot like a marathon, meaning that it's important to pace yourself appropriately.

i could go on about salmon mechanics that are important to learn. but salmon run at it's core ultimately tests your ability to quickly assess situations and make judgment calls. and the most important judgment call, to me is knowing when you need to step away from the grind because you've hit a skill wall.

the challenges i've faced with SR have changed over time as i've accumulated more experience with the mode. but generally speaking, i find that hitting a wall is characterized by repeatedly reaching a certain hazard level/wave, but not being able to completely clear it. i know i certainly found it annoying to reach wave 3 but not meet the quota.

when i started doing these pushes in 2023, i used to throw myself back into the queue because "we were just 1-2 eggs off! we'll get them next time!" and uh. here's the general gist of how that went:

(we failed again)

(i get increasingly irritated)

(my performance starts dropping from irritation)

(i get irritated that my points are dropping because there's only so many hours in a rotation)

("i need to keep playing otherwise i'll be stuck with the not as experienced players!!!")

(the cycle continues and i get a net loss of points)

fortunately, i don't do this anymore because it's largely unhelpful. it took awhile for me to get over the idea that throwing myself into another shift would get me back my points but. i did eventually!

these days i find that it's much more effective (and healing!) to take a 15-20 minute break (and sometimes an hour or longer!) whenever i notice signs of agitation or tension... any shifts that i do afterwards are MUCH easier.

the other reason why i think breaks are so important is because time away from the game helps you ask yourself better questions on what went wrong.

generally speaking if you can pinpoint why your shifts go to shit (thank you video footage and clips), you should be able to figure out a solution for that. and isn't that what learning is about?

i think a lot about how many shifts it took for me to get from EVP 300 -> EVP 999 on gone fission (124 of them). and when i think of that experience, i'm grateful that i learned the power of breaks since it took like half the jobs for me to get to 9's on bone rattle 💪

i definitely think that it's important to remember that getting through shifts will gets easier as you accumulate more experience. this is easier said than done but i think that if you can find ways to take note of your improvement, no matter how small, it will be easier to stay motivated!

i find this most noticeable with eggstra work... while i've only scored within the top 20% and never top 5%... i have gotten closer to the scores of the top 5% (i <3 marooners bay + jammin salmon junction eggswork) than i did at the start!

scoring aside, i cringe a lot at my spawning grounds eggstra work video, these have to be some of the most abysmal gameplay decisions ever and i'm happy to say that i wouldn't make that these days 💀! so if you've ever cringed at your old gameplay do not fret... it is natural and it's a sign of improvement!

anyway that's my lizz talk. while this is about salmon run i technically think this can expand to other pursuits in life. like creative hobbies. and sports! or maybe something else i didn't think of. learning is so wonderful and cool!

as a bonus, here's a notebook spread i made about golden rotation when i needed a break from the game... (did you know i really like my notebook... it's so fun)

Shiguang dai li ren/Link Click thoughts

Spoiler season 2

I needed to take a deep breath after watching the last episode of season 2. Too many questions, too many theories: my head was and is at full speed. The whole season was hell of a ride, September 22th has to be a national holiday for Shuguang dai li ren fans 😭 (yes I’m a drama queen)

Establishing strict rules that should never be crossed otherwise terrible consequences would occur, the cliffhanger of saison 1 open the door to a large amount of questions. Thus, season 2 begins with a promise of trials and tribulations.

Through out the episodes we are the witness of massive ups and downs with a frenetic rhythm: it’s an absolute emotional roller coster for the viewers 😭. The unbearable tension reached its peak when we found out Lu guang is from the futur and he’s trying to change the past at all cost.

At the last minutes of episode 12 when we see the blood on his shirt, I don’t think it’s after being stab in S1 (he wouldn’t be so calm) it means it’s directly after Cheng Xiaoshi death in his real timeline ( bro didn’t even try to live 00.3s without CSX😭)

Despite of everything LG taught us, he broke the rules. We were aware of the rules through LG statement but now that we know he is an unreliable character maybe those rules aren’t completely true? For example the 12 hours rules (if so why would he lie to CSX?)

LG was also a time traveler: since when did he has the power?

He either had it before the new timeline - I don’t think so- or he gain it when CSX die in his arms. (Which imply futur-LG no longer has CSX power in the new time line). I think it’s the second solution.

We see LG going back to the past, is it the only time he did so? If not, how many time did he uses it?

To my mind he only used it one time. The way he feels guilty when he did it shows that it’s not something he is used to do.

What’s in the picture ?

I think he went back in time either at his first encounter with CSX or at the overseas trip : either way the LG we have known since S1 has to be LG from the futur.

We will learn more this overseas trip in s3 for sure (as well as CSX and LG past, I imagine a lot of flash back in s3)

Qiao Ling acquired Li Tianxi’s ability then how is she gonna use it ?How would she confront LG about it?

I think she would be chocked with a lot of empathy and understanding toward LG. She might combine her ability with LG in order to prevent CSX death…

Liu Xiao is clearly a new threat alongside Li Tianchen : Does he has power too? Is he kind of a time line agent or something ?😩 Will he combine his supposed power with Li Tianchen ? Now that he lost his sister and left his phone on the bench I think he has nothing to lose.

Moreover, how will CSX react to his non-death news ?

I feel like LG wouldn’t admit his act directly to CSX and CSX is going to found out through someone else. Will he be :

- Furious at LG (he prevent him from saving the village whereas CSX was deeply affected by it)

- Enraged at LG but accept his destiny

- Mad at LG but try to help LG to save himself

Whatever the answer above, I think CSX will be extremely angry at LG and his impulsivity might put him even more in danger.

LG is clearly willing to do everything and anything for CSX’s sake. However, all the event in S2 (twins etc + him being stab) is unknown to him bc it didn’t happen in his original time line. Lu Guang said something like “event seems to be changing ”

What if, at the very end, he goes back (one last time) to a past where he didn’t even meet CSX? If saving him means to never met him in the first place I think he would.

(Without LG in CSX’s life everything we saw wouldn’t happen ..?) (it’s super sad tho💀)

Whatever the end of it, LG might sacrifice himself for the life of CSX.

All in all, Lu guang is gay, we must protect CSX, QL is an adorable bad ass and we’re all going to suffer.

One last straw: LG keeps the date of CSX death as his phone password the same way Edouard Elric kept the date of his mother death on his watch. They both keep it as a reminder of their goal and the lost of their love ones 😃🔫

PS: I need to watch S1 again as well as S2

We had a fabulous day today, that ended with me tripping over a stool while Holly holding and falling while also slamming her head into the bathroom door 😭😭

The good stuff: she had school this morning so that’s an automatic win in her book. When I picked her up it had warmed up to like 65* and it was just a beautiful day and I was feeling caffeinated I guess! I asked her where she wanted to go. She said the park, so we went to our big downtown one. She made a little friend immediately as per usual, my sweet social girl.

At this point I had basically decided to give her a big fun day, power through without nap and go to bed promptly at 7:30. After an hour or so of the park I took her downtown for ice cream. We sat at the counter in there and enjoyed our chocolate and lemon custard scoops 😋

And thennnn, and I seriously don’t know how I was so goddamn peppy, I took her to the science museum 😂

My MIL even took her to Sam’s club this evening, like seriously this child almost did too many things today 😂

AND THEN FOR THE GRAND FINALE, right as the day is winding down, we have the whole tripping and falling and head slamming incident 😖 I always wrap her up like a baby burrito in her big hooded towel after baths, and about half the time I carry her out of the bathroom like a baby all wrapped up in my arms and we’re both laughing and being silly. Except tonight when the way I was holding her meant that 1) I couldn’t see the stool that tripped me and 2) I couldn’t throw an arm out to catch us. My hands were stuck under her and in that moment I would’ve dropped her, so we just fell 😭 she hit her little head hard against the bathroom door as we went down. She cried a lot at first but calmed down in a little bit. We called the nurse line and they said what to watch for and to keep her up for an hour. So, the napless child (minus 10 mins in the car) who I wanted to get to bed earlyish, had to stay up til 9. And probably with a headache (we did give her Tylenol). Poor baby 😭

It was just a random Thursday💀

Lil photo dump!

[mommywandas]

Okay, uh... TW warning for blood and almost death :)

I was like 10 or something, and we had just gotten off school for winter break, and my brother was going on a date with his girlfriend at the time. Though, bc my brother was 7 at the time, me and my mother accompanied him. We went to a fucking McDonald's 💀

Anyway, I somehow managed to slip on a pickle, and I *donk* -ed my head on the corner of a table. Instinctively, I covered the area with my hand. When my mum asked me what was wrong bc I was sitting on the floor half in a daze, I took my hand away.

She describes it as if the blood had poured from my head. Within moments it had basically already formed a puddle 😭

We quickly packed up and went to leave but the staff noticed and swarmed us with a contract, urging us to sign it so we couldn't sue them. It took us five minutes to get down the stairs because of this, and I was very much still bleeding everywhere.

After she finally signed it, we rushed to the hospital. Took us 20 minutes to walk here. We got in and they sat me down.

I don't remember all that much of this bit because I was in and out of consciousness, but my nan picked up my brother and his girlfriend (pretty sure I gave her trauma) and my mum called my dad to come home early because of this.

They had to glue my head together after doing some weird ass shit to my head - again, idfk what they did bc I was just trying to focus on locing atp 😭. After about 10 minutes the glue came undone and they had to glue to again, now pressing the fact that I'd have to be transferred to the bigger hospital that's typically 30 minutes away in vehicle.

They ran some minor checks on me, making sure I was still awake and shit until an ambulance arrived. I had to kind of lay down / sit up in the back with my mum just watching me.

We ended up getting there in like 15 mins bc yk, ambulance power and all that 💪🏻🐻

They ran some more checks on me, and at that point, my speech was slurred; my pupils were dilated. Just stuff like that, I guess..

My dad arrived home and grabbed some things that my mum had me request as we weren't sure what was going to happen. I got my favourite teddy at the time as it was the only thing I wanted.

A few hours after testing, and the glue had actually SETTLED, they let me go home.

The cut was behind my left ear, so it I ever somehow go bald, the scar is gonna be loud and proud :3

Idk I lowkey find it funny that 1) that made for my brothers worst and most memorable date yet 2) I almost died bc of a pickle while IN McDonald's and 3) I live across from that McDonald's. Like, I can see the exact table I almost died at from my bedroom window 😭

Idk if there's any spelling mistakes, but I'm not reading through that again 💀

That is the wildest thing I’ve ever read 😭 I also love how your brother had a date at 7 years old 😭 But overall, your poor head, I hate pickles now!!

[sp00nzontheteenagefacebook]

hi! idk if you only do headcanons or not but can you write cc!quackity angst where the reader checks up on alex multiple times through out the day when he’s in his streaming room and one day he’s just having a bad day and accidentally snaps and says something hurtful at the reader when they’re just trying to get him to eat bc he hasn’t eaten or smth like that? and when the reader leaves the room he doesnt realize how bad he hurt them so he tries to talk to them but they already left the house and stayed at a friends house for a bit, and when they come back he apologizes and it just turns into fluff?? SORRY ITS REALLY DETALIED LOLL 💀 anyways, have a good day/night!! <33

Don't Snap At Me, I'm Sensitive.

Ofc! Sorry it took what- a year to write this? Here's part one since it was too long to write all of it onto the tumblr format!

Pairing: Quackity, You

Summary: ^^^

TW: Quackity is big mean for a minute there

Under the cut <33

Alex had been streaming for 5 hours now. He was doing a Roblox stream where he played AdoptMe.

But everything that could go wrong did go wrong.

His camera broke, his game was raided by DSMP antis and weirdchamp Quackity fans, the internet in his house went out multiple times, and he had forgotten to eat anything that day.

Throughout the stream, Alex's stress started to get the best of him. But he continued.

Bills don’t pay themselves.

The internet going off again at the 5-and-a-half hour mark was when he decided he was done playing for the day.

Powering off his PC, he put his face into his hand and took a long breath to calm down. His office door opened and in walked you.

"Hey, you’re finally done," you said as you walked up to him. He sent a small glare your way, hoping that you’d take the hint to back off.

That he was in no mood to talk to you, but you didn’t.

You did, however, notice his bad mood and gently touched his shoulder, "How about we go out to eat, yeah? Get your mind off whatever's making you angry."

"I'm not angry," He mumbled as he shrugged your hand off his shoulder.

You stared at him, "Baby.. c’mon, what’s wrong?"

"Nothing. It’s nothing. "

"Alex, I can tell when something’s wrong. Just talk to me and maybe we can fix it. "

"Amor please, I don’t-"

"Alexis, please just tell-"

He slammed his hands on the table and stood up, "Maybe if you weren’t so fucking stupid, maybe you’d be able to see that I want to be left alone! God. It's like you never fucking take hints. "

Your eyes widened as you took a step back.

"What?"

"You fucking heard me. Just leave me alone, "

He spat out as he sat back in his chair and looked down, "I can’t deal with your nonsense right now."

You stare at him, your eyes burning as tears threaten to fall. Without a word, you walked out of the room.

Walking into the two of you's shared room you grabbed the suitcase from under the bed and started shoving things from your drawers and closet into it while letting out a few sobs.

You slammed the suitcase shut and zipped it shut. You sat on your bed, grabbed your phone, and called your friend.

The phone rang for a second before they picked up, "Hey bud, what's up?"

You sniffed, "Hey, Alexis n’ I— he yelled at me- I was wondering if you would mind if I crashed at your house for a few days?"

"Oh, honey… Yeah, of course. Uh- fuck. Do you need a ride?"

"No, it's fine. I’ll take the car. Thank you so much. This means a lot."

"Yeah, of course! I’ll see you when you get here."

You two said your goodbyes and hung up, grabbed your suitcase, and headed out of the house.

Looking behind you towards the office, you started second-guessing yourself.

Shaking your head, you walked out of the door, closing it behind you.

Part 2!

[lilacknights]

So idk if you know this but there's this superstition where if you point at a tree and don't bite the finger you used to bite you'll get cursed (idk by who I forgor💀)

So how about any obey me character getting cursed cause of that

Obey Me Headcanons: Filipino Superstitions

ALTERNATE TITLE: Don't fuck with Asian superstitions, it ain't sexy.

CHARACTERS: Lucifer, Mammon, Leviathan, Asmodeus, and a very tired Filipino gn!MC

WARNINGS: obligatory implied dirty joke in Asmo's but nothing too explicit.

FOREWORD: Thank you, I've been laughing at this request for days. 😂 And I think the word you're looking for is "Namatanda" or "Nanuno". I leave in the province and let me tell you, getting cursed here is not sexy at all.

And I'm really sorry that I only did four of the brothers! I've ran out of knowledge on local curses and didn't want it to be repetitive. Maybe I'll write a part 2 if anyone is interested <3

✄ ——————————————————–

MC warned them. They warned the demon brothers who tagged along with them to watch their actions when they visit the province, especially at night. They told them that they shouldn't point to the dark, because they might offend local spirits and creatures. They told them to bite their finger right after if they accidentally pointed at a random direction. They told them to say "Tabi-Tabi po" when passing through vacant lots or areas with no residents.

But did they listen? NO.

—————————–

MAMMON was (obviously) the first one to go down. The demon had come running from inside the denser forest area after sunset, pointing at the direction where they came from. He screamed about something with huge wings flying above him in the dark, ironically scared of something with bat wings. MC smacked his hand down, telling him to bite his finger before he gets cursed by a dwarf or a spirit in the woods. Offended and petty over the way he was ignored, Mammon didn't bite his finger and called the superstition "stupid and harmless".

It ain't so harmless anymore when he woke up yeeting his dinner from last night right into the toilet, quickly followed by his lunch, and then the rice cake he definitely didn't steal from Beel.

They had him checked for stomach virus something something that he might've gotten from human food, but every medical spells and check ups came back negative. MC, giving in to their worry over the demon, told Mammon to grab water and start sprinkling the land he pointed at last night???

In normal circumstances, Mammon would have called it ridiculous but he was desperate. The mofo was back to his healthy self and was rivaling Beel in the dinner table immediately a few hours later. His brothers laughed at him and how pathetic he looked like, taken down by some local superstitions... but they weren't laughing for long.

That same night, Levi was very begrudgingly knocking on MC's door. He was trying to do an overnight marathon of a new anime series with good reviews online, but his vision kept spinning and he can't focus without almost vomiting. It was a miracle he even reached their room without breaking his face. (But he did break a vase or two on the way there.)

—————————–

LEVIATHAN was next, mainly because Mammon was claiming he should be scared and Levi milked the fear by doing the exact same pointing that Mammon did. Mammon tried to stop him but eventually went 'You know what? Learn it the hard way, too.'

LUCIFER has laughed when MC told him the story on why his younger brothers had been crying on how they want to leave the human world right now and have no plans of going back. When MC told him to be careful, too, he again laughed. That one annoying, deep, sexy laugh that makes him sound like a dilf but child-less.

He was quick on following whatever weird human ritual he was told to do, all because he had a sale in Akuzon he needed to catch this morning and he will not be late.

—————————–

"MC, I am one of the most powerful demons in Devildom, did you really think a mere and most likely fake superstition can harm me?"

It can and it did.

MC wasn't exactly sure what he did to be cursed, but Lucifer finally gave in and admitted that he had been burning with a fever, something that not even his demonic immune system can fight off. It's been hindering his work and so he eventually caved and asked MC for their opinion on what to do. UHHHHH, let's just say he didn't like it one bit.

ASMODEUS also asked MC for their help but it wasn't for him. He asked if it was possible to pass down the curse to someone else?? Because he apparently passed it to a woman he knew??? The woman allegedly "hurt her lower back so bad that she can't walk straight".

"I'm sorry... Did you just say you'll heal me with saliva?" "Yeah, I need to rub it on your stomach—" "Get the hell out of my room."

—————————–

MC immediately got suspicious so they brought the woman and Asmodeus to a local shaman, an Albularyo. The shaman did a little ritual, using a block of ice and putting it in a small basin filled with water. They did their prayer, held hands with the supposed "cursed" people there and waited for the ice to melt and form a different shape. The shape of the ice was supposed to tell them what exactly harmed the woman in question.

...MC walked right out the room when the ice turned into a PHALLIC shape.

The shaman looked at Asmo, and sighed. "Son, your friend wasn't cursed. She were fuc—"

——————————————————– ✄

FUN FACT: Asmodeus' scenario was based on a real life event that happened in our neighborhood. 👁️👄👁️ 🌷

Part Fourteen

➼A/N: ⚠️There’s a written portion in today’s part, don’t miss it! It’s under the keep reading button⚠️ Honestly I had such a fun time writing this part so I hope you guys like it!

Previous | Next | Masterlist

You put your phone in your pocket as you opened up the door to Ran’s car. “You guys are filthy rich, you don’t need me treating you to lunch” you said as you sat down onto the car's backseat while slamming the door close. "It's not about money, but more about the kind gesture🥺" the older Haitani states. The younger Haitani chimed in "We would feel so special if you treat us 👉👈" You sigh, "if it means you guys get off my ass about how I spoiled Sanzu then sure I guess" you said while rolling your eyes. You engage with small talk with them until Ran finally pulled up to where you guys were eating at. "Make sure to get all you want since our kind bestie is treating us" Ran grinned brightly while batting his eyelashes at you. You swear you wanted to punch him for that. "Oh for sure I will" Rindou said with a smirk. You'll have to plan your revenge against the brothers some time later for this. These two did not hold back and ordered a mountain of dishes. You had to refrain from straight up punching them. You ate silently while watching the annoying duo eat happily. A small smile appeared on your face, at least they're happy.

After eating and paying for the bill (RIP money) you guys were headed to karaoke. You guys were booked for 2 hours of singing. You were genuinely surprised to hear that Ran had a beautiful singing voice. Mans was hitting them high notes. Rindou on the other hand💀"Please tell me you're singing face off ironically." You were proven wrong when Rindou screamed into the microphone, "IT'S ABOUT DRIVE 😤IT'S ABOUT POWER 🔥WE STAY HUNGRY😈WE DEVOUR 👹PUT IN THE WORK 💪PUT IN THE HOURS ⌚️AND TAKE WHATS OURS 🥶" After a bunch of chaos of you three singing you needed to use the bathroom so you excused yourself.

As soon as you left Ran stopped singing and turned to his little brother. “Yo Rin, we should snap a pic and rub it in Sanzu’s face that we’re hanging out with Y/N” “Normally I would disagree with your petty actions that involves me but this time I’m fully on board, how dare he try to steal my best friend” “How many times do I have to repeat myself till you’ll get it into that stupid brain of yours, they’re my best friend” “Yeah yeah just snap the pic already”

Ran’s POV

Sanzu let out a gasp “this bitch😤” Sanzu quietly plans on what he’ll do next. He was never really close to you, after all you guys were just coworkers who only talked when needed. But he came to realize just who you are as a person and how nice you are, especially how good of a friend you are. He feels a little jealous that you’re currently with the Haitanis and not with him, even though he hung out with you the previous day. He made up his mind that he’ll snatch you from the Haitanis and get himself to be your new best friend.

You returned back into the karaoke room after using the bathroom just to see the brothers staring at Ran’s phone. “Huh? Why’d you guys stop singing?” You see Ran typing something and then shutting his phone off and shoving his phone into his pocket. “Oh we just wanted a little break” After that you guys sang for the remaining time you had left and then went over to your place.

Now tell me your favorite ships in tog in order :)

Mer.

Bestie, this is so difficult, I-

No shit, I have been thinking and re-thinking my order for the last 2 hours. I knew which ship was at my top spot, but the rest had me in such a dilemma. Anyway, I have ultimately come up with this ordering, but just know that aside from no. 1, the order might change everyday lol.

Manorian. Hi, these two own my heart, soul, body, life, assets and anything else I might have. Enemies to Enemies with Benefits to Reluctant Allies to Friends with Benefits to Lovers. I screamed every time they interact, or even mention each other. Hell, I already have ideas for a few fics. I am obsessed, your honour.

Elorcan. Where do I start? They had enemies-to-lovers, they had fake dating and fake marriage, height difference (the most stark I've ever seen lmao) and hates-everyone-but-their-love. Oh, and a shit ton of angst. Chef's kiss. (Still pissed about "So Lorcan did" fade-to-balck, though. 😤)

Chaorene. I kept switching up number 3 and 4 for a long time, but settled with them on this spot. I honestly adore their dynamic so, so much. From the moment they meet, it's so snarky and bright. They take no shit from anyone, not even each other, and the healing journey they go on together is so lovely to witness. I also think they are the most realistic couple in the series. They love each other so much, and are extremely protective, but they also know when to let the protective instincts take a backseat to do what needs to be done. I love that so much.

Rowaelin. Their undying, unconditional devotion to each other is so beautiful. The reason I put them here and not above is just that they were together by the 5th book, and I was really happy (if you had asked me to rank the ships after QoS, they would definitely been 2nd, I was such a sucker for them). And personally, I like the build-up to getting together more than when ships are already together. But aside from that, I really love them.

Lysaedion. I really love them, and I wish we got more of them being happy together. But I was so happy to read they are getting married AAAAAAAH.

Nestaq. He loved her before he ever saw her, need I say more? Please, they are so precious! I wish we got more of them too, but they're happy and so am I.

Borte and Yeran: Yes, I am going to unclude secondary ships too. God, I was dying to see more of them. Acting like you hate in public, but actually are in love and Shor show it behind closed doors? Beautiful. Lovely. I want to know more about them.

Asterin and her Hunter. Call me strange, but their tragic love story had such an impact. The sheer heartbreak of it all, the fact that he sat out of the cabin every night waiting for Asterin until he died, and Asterin wanting to be laid to rest in that house so she could be near him in death at least. Yeah. 🤧🤧🤧

Gavin and Elena. I know we only had their story from people talking about them and a few times from the two themselves, but listen, I have a thing for epic love stories that begin in the doomed times of battle, but surviving against all odds, are remembered for ages.

Gavriel and Aedion's mother. I told you I have a thing for tragic, doomed love stories. 🤡

Now, for an honorable mention: Listen, this isn't a ship at all. But guys. I'm just saying...Manon and Aelin with Elide as their adopted ward. I am a complete hoe for Manorian and Rowaelin, but the power couple Maelin (?) would be is just out of the world lol. Hell, even Dorian agrees.

Maybe she (Aelin) should. Maybe this world deserved it. Maybe Manon Blackbeak would help her do it. Maybe they’d rule over the ruins together.

Oh, and in my head, Sorscha and Sam are together in the Afterworld. No, I will not be taking any criticism about this. 🤡

Anyway, there you go. I went through about a hundred different internal debates and crises, but here we are at last. 💀

[gangrenados]

Finally people who also find Rachel kind of obnoxious 💀😭 I went on like an hour tangent to my S/O the other day about it and my best friend was like whyyyyyyy she’s ravennnnn like noooooo they did her characterization so dirty

Lmao yess I don't really like Rachel, I find her annoying and even kind of bratty sometimes

I mean, s1 Rachel was nice and likeable.

hen s2 came and she treated Jason pretty damn bad, i guess she expected him to give her some kind of special treatment like the rest of the Titans. I think that since her beef with him started after Jason called her a freak AFTER SHE ALMOST STABBED HIM TO DEATH what? You can't expect people to like you after you try to kill them

she even accused him of things Jason didn't even do, in fact, she was the one who started the witch hunt towards Jason.

-I also find annoying that she gets all the attention and the other younger members are put into the shadow. She's the favorite child and you can't deny me that cuz

1. When she went to look out for her mom in that asylum, Dick and Kory went to her rescue right away

2. But when Gar was being brainwashed alongside Conner, causing chaos all over the city and getting hurt by that evil company. Who goes to their rescue? Donna and Dawn who didn't even knew them cuz Kory and Rachel decided to bail Dick out of jail (which was fucking useless cuz by the time they get them, Dick had already escaped)

Mind you, during the Trigon incident Gar was killed by the hand of the Titans. All. Of them.

Did they apologized properly? No. Yeah, I still hold a grudge for that one.

-Also the scene where the amazons or whatever, were teaching Rachel how to use her powers? Girl I wanted to slap her so bad.

She was so disrespectful towards them, acting like she knows it all and being and being a brat.

I mean, they're a powerful group taking time to teach your dumb ass how to use your stupid powers! Show some goddamn respect for once!

-I just don't like her attitude pass s1, I'm sorry. She annoys me.

Stand Gar and Conner's simp ass

[sappyscarfy]

I just saw Doctor Strange 2 it was epic! Sorry im gonna have to yell about it

Spoilers below!

[Ok first im a normie mcu movie-only fan but i do frequent comic discussions so i know some things]

DS2 has been my most anticipated phase 4 marvel movie. I went into it 100% for doctor strange cause he's my fav character. Im not that huge about wanda sorry so i wont have much opinion on her,,, I won't lie i was quite worried for this movie with all the delays and reshoots, not to mention early reviews/reactions seems rather "mixed" so my expectations are kept in check Things i wanted to see before going into the movie: -Better magic fight. Frankly the magic in DS1 was rather meh. But they have been powering him up for the past couple movies so i had high hopes -Strange not getting overshadowed by Wanda and cameos -Better magic. Seriously i just want to see some cool magic. See that cool Strange vs Thanos battle in Infinity war? I just want an entire movie of that 💀 And they delivered! The magic was much more creative and varied! No more boring fistfight (except for that one scene where they literally cant use magic lol) A huge huge upgrade over the first movie. The music battle with darkhold strange (idk what to call him) was incredible! And when zombie strange turning the spirits into a cape. Metal af!! (Im gonna have to draw that someday). The magic in this movie is absolutely eye candy! Also holy fuck this movie is brutal i can't believe its PG-13. Black bolt head just fucking pop and Reed Richard is just shredded like spaghetti and its clearly see on screen. Rip all the parents bringing their kids into this movie I know many people are disappointed that the Illuminati were taken out so quick but im not a comic book reader so i wasn't obsessed over these cameos. Tho Professor X in that yellow chair was so funny i cant get the mental image of him rolling around in it during the battle with thanos out of my head So for the characters. Strange did get huge character development and i think he was really well written. I love the whole thing of him being able to accept that he doesnt always have to be the one wielding the knife. Christine role was very good too and im so glad she didnt give Strange a goodbye kiss at the end. Really like that last scene where Strange repaired the watch to show that he was finally able to move on too. Im very very glad that they didnt get back together at the end -The new character America Chavez i love her! I've only known her for 2 hours but if anything happened to her, I would kill everyone in this room and then myself. She punch star portals. Coolest thing ever! Needs more development in the future tho -Wanda. Im not wanda stan so i dont mind whatever role she's playing in this movie. I think she was a good villain. Tho im actually glad that it was the darkhold that corrupts her because going from wandavision to murdering a bunch of people is way too steep of a character turn -Wong my beloved! I was so scared they're gonna kill him off to make Strange the sorcerer supreme but im glad they didnt. He was really funny in this movie and i love the banter with strange as usual. There's that scene in Kamar Taj where he yells "FORTIFY YOUR MIIIIIND!!!!!" was so hilarious to me -Mordo (838) he doesnt really do anything. But im glad they didnt kill off og mordo like some leaks said -Who is that green minotaur i want to know moreee

Visual-wise this movie looks way better than most mcu movies. Lots of more interesting shots and better color grading. Tho some of the transition scenes are really goofy like that one going from Wanda's apple field and fading to Wong face lmao. And Raimi really loves eye closeup huh

Hm hm what else? Yeah the post credit. Im sorry I know many comic fans are very excited for Clea but that scene has strong "it's me blorko" energy skskskks. Anyways idk anything about her but she seems very cool and im excited to see her in the future I think the pacing in this movie is a bit too cramped. Def needs some extra minutes in some place like the beginning to kamar taj fight

Side note, this movie has a B+ Cinemascore (which is a rating system used in box office community to represent the casual general audience opinion). The only other B range mcu movies are Thor 1 (B+) and Eternals (B). Im honestly baffled that people like thor 2 (A-) and black widow (A-) more than this 💀 Overall good movie, better than NWH for me!

[taegularities]

Miss Rid, hi I hope you’re well it’s me, dreamgirl. New BTS related dream just dropped and it’s an entire movie I swear. I woke up like an hour ago so some details might be missing but I’m going to tell you the gist of it💭

So I’m attending this school right. For like super powered gifted kids??? And anyway my classmate is Kim Taehyung. Gorgeous black permed Kim Taehyung and his best pals, 2/5 of the Wooga Squad- SeoJoon and Wooshik.

Anyway we cut to a pool scene??? But this pool is like packed??? Like people can’t swim they’re just floating??? (Damn our super power school can’t afford a couple extra pools?) and apparently Seo Joon and Wooshik devised this plan to corner Taehyung and I because apparently we’re giving off idiots to lovers vibes?? Listen I REMEMBER SEOJOON BACKING ME UP AGAINST A WALL (platonically) IN THIS DREAM AND HE WAS BEAUTIFUL?!?!!?

So anyway the idiots finally become cute high school lovers and the school is like this super power meets Star Wars type vibes again?

And I get to hold my cute boyfriend’s hand and walk down hallways and stuff and in this time I find out I’m like this anomaly??? Like my parents aren’t regular supers? They’re like two different ones so I’m this hybrid who has too much power for her own good or just too much to control?

I can stop time, manipulate anatomy and I have crazy ass strength and can fly and shit. And supers only have one power??? And anyway this school is like weary of me? Like not with ulterior motives, they’re just concerned and want me to control my powers? (At least that’s what they say, you know…)

But anyway back to the loml Kim Taehyung. So my guy cheats on me suddenly hey? Like all of a sudden???? (Like baby??? We were good? I was the Nala to your Simba??? The Anjali to your Rahul?!??)

And I lose my shit?? Like I’m rage stomping the school grounds and destroying things and people are trying to stop me but hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, you know. Like in this dream I remember using that anatomy manipulation bit to cause someone internal pain for trying to attack me??

And then suddenly I can see the future. Like I have visions of me and my husband, Taehyung, buying this old chicken shop with like face brick interior and turning it into our home (chicken shop???) and we’re decorating this house and I vaguely see an art project happening on the floor (body paints and stuff🙊)

So I stop trying to fight everyone whose trying to apprehend me. And I sink to my knees (you know, villain redemption arc style). And Taehyung is standing there with his pals and they’re voicing their opinions on his cheating actions. They’re mad. Big time. (I mean, they worked hard to get us together ig and SeoJoon could’ve done other things when he backed me up at that pool smh🙄)

And I’m like all defeated and shit like heartbroken and I’m like “she probably kissed him better than I did☹️☹️☹️” and he says no.

And I don’t wanna hear why he cheated ig so I start walking away and he runs after me but my alarm went off because I had to get up earlier to make Father’s Day breakfast 😞 so we don’t know whether or not multiverse me and Taehyung patch things up so the future vision can come true sigh.

Anyway I hope this was a fun read because my dreams are whack as heck these days, I guess it’s like post exam stress relief?? And I hope you’re doing well and living well and being healthy and coping with chapter 2 aka Tiddies and Tats era (we luv 2 c it)

🫰🏼

DREAMGIRL I AM SO BAFFLED LIKE 😭 first of all, seojoon backing u up against a wall is so .... got me drooling, bcos has ur dream seojoon ever heard of polyamory... just asking 🙄 BUT ALSO U DATED KIM TAEHYUNG. i am jealous, girl, i wanna be the nala to his simba, anjali to his rahul (pls that comparison got me 💀)

and i seriously lost it at the chicken shop bit, bcos what the heck is that even lmaoooo 😭 he deserves the scolding tho, cos how dare he hurt u.... idc if it’s tae or whoever, he better sleep with an eye open 🔪

also U CANNOT LEAVE ME LIKE THIS. i was so invested and then boom cliffhanger. but i believe that ur vision came true and things settled, cos... optimism 😔 it was a hilarious read as always pls, i love ur asks !! and congrats on slaying ur exams 😎 i’m doing well but am totally not ok with chapter 2 and the tiddies pls 😐 hope u’ve been well !!! <3 also irritated that tumblr won’t show me the emojis u put at the end of the message smh

[luvdsc]

thanks for giving me some advice, miss cat <3

i have been crushing on him for about 4 years at this point which is kind of embarrassing but ... last semester when i started texting him, i slid into his dms w a pretty lame question about apush bc i heard from a friend that he had the same apush teacher as me 😭

i'm still unsure if it's a good idea for me to kinda go after him yk?? like for one, my dad said that i have to get straight A's this semester (and all of my classes are hard ;-;). and idk if i should just drop the boy and work solely on my studies? bc my parents are strict (typical tiger mom + same goes for my dad), they become control freaks when they're upset ;A;

also, idk if it's bc he's shy or smth bc he'll never text me first :(( does that count as a red flag ??

but he never texts first. i really don't know if i'm just picky ?? bc i have this issue with a lot of my friends,,, and usually i don't mind but sometimes i get self conscious and think maybe they never text first bc i'm annoying knsdhks :((

he's interested in landscape photography !! i'm one of his 24 followers so idk if that's a good thing but,,, i'll take it as one :)) i'm very loud with people i'm close with, but i'm very quiet and awkward with people i don't know too well, so i'm kinda scared talking to him in person at all HAHAHA

it would be a power move to just confess and see what he says LOL but idk if i'm bold enough to do that... but then again i was bold enough to cold call the teacher i fear the most today LMFAO

so i'm just thinking to myself, is it worth it? will i be happy? does he even like me at all? i'd love to hang out with him if i weren't so scared

summary of last sem: late august, i slid into his dms, texted him frequently until sept, when i stopped bc on 3 separate days, i texted him & he responded and left kinda? maybe he was busy. in november, i texted him again & it turned into a ~2 hour convo. over winter break, i texted him more. rn everything seems to be going well but i haven't texted him in abt 2 weeks bc i'm just... confused.

what does he mean? my friends think that he opened up to me more (kinda?) bc i left for 2 months, maybe he thought i was cool ?? but he's also not texting back anymore?? but also we never talk irl bc i'm scared but idk why he doesn't, bc he's mentioned that he knows i'm in his class :/

from, 🦊 anon :) omg sorry for the long ass ask

hello :) it's 🦊 anon here

idk if my last ask went through, so i'm asking again ;-; sorry if you have already seen it, i'm just not sure :(

i'm thinking about taking your advice about just going for it, but i'm scared bc i'm expected to get a 4.0 gpa this semester 😭 my parents are extremely strict too ://

but also i've liked this boy for almost 4 years, and i like him sm idk what to do :(( it's embarrassing how much i think about him 💀💀

and i really don't know if his lack of interaction id bc of him being shy or being uninterested,,, my best bet is probably talking to him irl but i'm scared and HSNDHSA i'm a coward. as much as i want to forget him and move on, i feel like i'll regret it 😭😭

last year in august-december i texted him but stopped halfway bc he seemed uninterested bc he didn't continue convos?? but then i texted him again and he was fine again :/ i'm very confused. did he miss me? was he busy? i waste so much headspace over him but i can't let him to ;A; i like him too much

from, 🦊 anon (this ask is stupidly long... i apologize 😔😔

✿ ✿ ✿

hey, sweetpea !!! omg i'm so sorry for the late reply, i got your first message, but it's hard for me to answer longer asks on mobile, so i finally had some time to go on my laptop tonight to answer !! 💓 how have you been? how's life been treating you, lovebug? 💛

omg four years :o it's not embarrassing at all, honey bee! romance is just one of the many things that make up life, and it doesn't have to take the front seat all the time. you can get to it at your own pace, and that's perfectly okay !! 💕 omg you made the first move heck yes honey bee, i'm proud of you for doing that !!!

ah i definitely feel that, i also had strict parents and a tiger mom 🤧i think while it's good to focus on your studies because education is important, perhaps there's a way to also enjoy your high school years while doing so? when you look back during these times, i hope you'll have more memories than just studying :') that's something i regret a little bit - i was very focused on my studies and extracurriculars too, but sometimes, i wish i did more fun things and spent more time with friends back then. maybe, in order to find some sort of middle ground between school and your crush, you can ask if he wants to study with you one day for the class you have in common? like prepare for a test together !!

you could never be annoying, lovebug !!!! ):< take that back !!!!! does he respond with one worded answers and try to cut off the convo as fast as possible? that might mean he's not interested, but if he's giving you long replies and seems geniunely excited to talk to you about things, like photography, then i'd say he might be a little shy :')

oooo omg landscape photography is so cool !!! maybe you can ask him if he's taking photos of anything new lately or if there's anything he wants to photograph next! 💖 one of 24 followers omg i'd say you're special, and that he at least sees you as a friend if he trusts you with that 🌸 aaa it can definitely be nerve wracking to talk to someone face to face, like you can't spend time thinking up a witty answer, but it's also a good way to see how he reacts to you in person and if he is equally as happy and excited to talk to you because uh.... boys can be the driest texters sometimes 😬

if you feel like you'll regret it, honey bee, then i personally say you should go for it 🤍 live without any regrets. would you rather find out what would happen if you confessed or continue to think of him as a what-if in your life? the worst thing that can happen is that he doesn't feel the same way. and it'll sting, but you'll get over it, and you can move on knowing that you did what you could, and you're now ready for the next step in your life, rather than sitting around in the past wondering what could have happened if you had just talked to him.

omg you cold called the teacher aldksjfhlaksjd that takes GUTS !!!! and it would definitely be a power move if you asked him out :') why not ask him to prom, sweetpea? or maybe ask him out on valentine's day aksdhfasd

ngl sometimes when boys disappear from convos, it's because they're playing video games or something alksdhflkasjd it happens to my friends and their bfs or i'm hanging out with my guy friends and they completely neglect any texts they get for the next 12374289 hours 💀💀 also, based on my own experiences, boys have a harder time of opening up to other people like girls can become instant bffs in the bathroom of a club, but i think guys are not as open to expressing themselves due to societal pressure and all that, and that leads to some roadblocks in convos at times. have you texted him again lately?

but wait did he just stop replying to your texts ?? or did he stop because you haven't texted him for the past two weeks? he knows you're in his class, so my suggestion would be to text him and ask if the two of you can study together sometime :') i think that gives an excuse for you to see and talk to him in person, but also have a safety net to fall back on because it's also for school purposes !! and from there, you can really see how he feels if he agrees to meet up for a study session! 💘

i'm so so sorry for the late response, honey bee, but i hope this is helpful for you!! and omg you don't have to be sorry, thank you for trusting me enough to send this in 💛 i wish you all the best of luck with school and the boy, and please keep me updated !!! 🌷🌷
