on another note, absolutely wild to me that some people will look at the buckley-diaz dynamic and say with their whole chest that buck deserves better and that he’s being taken advantage of. like, that is his fucking family. his family that he chose and who he actively keeps choosing. and equally significant, his family that chose him right back in a very big way. they are genuinely mutually insane about each other and have been for several years. like, they have been choosing each other over and over for YEARS. be for fucking real
#buddie#911#it's actually not even about platonic vs. romantic but about the family of it all#if you cannot see that i fear you are watching something else entirely#this post brought to you by wine. but also genuinely what are you talking about#911 abc

Imagine being Do Dahae a year from now. Your husband keeps appearing in different outfits to stare at you lovingly or to preemptively apologise for forgetting to do the groceries 3 hours from now. He’s a firefighter and sometimes appears after a fire that hasn’t even happened yet for a “past/future good luck kiss”, whatever that means. During an argument he says he’ll never want to relive this again and there he is hair wet from the shower, pathetic, saying “even an argument is better than hours without you”. Do Dahae, you’re in for a ride
#jadnidhdid I CAN SEE IT#the atypical family#the concept itself is so romantic😭#and they’re so fucked up in complementary ways💗#equality💞#lyde vs kdramas

i think “characters do not need to be blood-related to be family and those that see/refer to each other as family is an important aspect of their dynamic, and taking that away for the sake of romance does a disservice to their relationship” and “characters referring to each other as family does not necessarily make them ‘siblings’ or ‘parent and child’ because sometimes family can also be friendship, and saying that people shipping these characters is morally wrong/incestuous is not true at all” can and should all coexist
#nuclear family dynamics vs fandom placing the idea of romantic love above all. FIGHT!!!#anyway this is inspired by the alien.stage comic where mizi referred to ivan and till as her family#the discourse ive seen around that is so. ugh#yes people still shipping mizi.till or ivan.mizi after she referred to them as her family feels like diminishing her close relationship with#both of them and sua as well. but no it is not considered incest girl what the fuck are you sayingggg#it all boils down to the sentiment of ‘let people be friends’ tbh. anyway yayy friendship

i kind of can't believe we won that bracket, ngl
#a LITTLE sad we don't get to go up against zerxus and asmodeus though just for the sheer comedy of#'luis views this as familial but the fandom decided it's sexual' vs#'sam explicitly said there are romantic feelings but 80% of the fandom still thinks it's completely familial'#THAT would have been funny#cr tag#but the ship that DID win that poll is more deserving for sure

Day 12 - Grass + Viral Rest
In the hours that follow you can finally relax
The grass was cold. It eased the burns and cuts all over Dark’s body.
Grass……
His hands ran across the plant life. It was sharper than he expected, but it bent and softened to his touch. Wet as well, little droplets kissing his skin.
Droplets….
Drop
Drop
It was raining. Little water droplets came down from the murky clouds to dance across his and Chosen’s form.
Chosen.
His Friend Rival Enemy He was laying on his back too. Hand clasping his chest as it heaved with each breath. Dark feared something was wrong. Or did he Want something to be wrong? He choked it up to the explosion scrambling his brain. “…..chosen one?” His voice croaked, huffing as he pushed himself up onto his side “hey-“ Chosen turned towards Dark, bleary eyes glancing up at his ally.
“….heh…..” An odd sound bubbled up from Chosen’s chest. Laughter. It started small with strangled chuckles. Then his chest heaved once more as loud thunderous laughter came from the beaten stick. It’s infectious. Dark can’t help laughing along even as something flares up in pain, flopping onto his back as he keeps laughing. Both sounding nearly manic in their glee. Chosen’s laughs died first, turning into wheezy breaths as if he fought again to get air back in them.
“…..we….did it…..” he breathed
“Damn right we did!” Dark croaked “…..it’s nice out here…..darker than I thought..….”
“It’s night…..gonna be darker…….”
“….night….”
Chosen’s hand had slipped into Dark’s at some point. Dark gave it a gentle squeeze.
The stars twinkled in the darkness, Dark Lord watching transfixed for a moment.
“......what are those?”
“.....stars……”
“......they’re nice……”
“Mmm…”
The next squeeze from Chosen was smaller and weaker. Making Dark perk up and turn to the other. Chosen’s eyes were hazy and heavy, breath slowly evening out as he sagged.
“Chosen One……Chosen…?”
“....g’ve……..me five……….m’nutes…….”
“..........ok…….”
Dark squeezed the other’s hand again. Chosen didn’t squeeze back this time, going limp as……something happened. Another odd sound came from the stick, snoring. He’d learn later it was called snoring….and it was loud.
...
Chosen’s mind felt fuzzy and jumbled. A headache faintly forming already demanding attention. He braced for the cursor to grab him, yanking him to attention and pointing at another ad for essay writers or cookie clicker to destroy. But that didn’t happen… Instead he woke up to the feeling of grass and feeling a little wet. Groaning, he stretched slightly. Something scratchy pressed against his back, something softer was leaning against his shoulder.
Right…..there was someone else now.
Chosen glanced towards The Dark Lord as he was called, honestly that user, next to him. His eyes lidded as he seemingly stared off into nothing. Chosen half wondered if he was dead. “Hey……hey-”
Chosen gently pushed Dark. The crimson stick jumped, head whipping around for the source of the touch.
“Bwuh-”
“Good. You’re not dead- ?!”
Chosen was thrown at Dark’s expression and the sudden grip on his shoulders. His face betrayed almost incredulous joy. “....you’re……back…..” Dark’s voice sounded strained Not from pain or sadness Exhaustion dripped from each vowel, like it took a conscious effort to work out each word.
“......have you slept?”
“Slept?”
“....ah.”
“.....are…..you upset.” “No……how long was i asleep for?”
Chosen could see the gears working in Dark’s head for a moment. Eventually he pointed towards a spot in the sky. A tremor in his hands.
“....that was there…….” he followed an arc across the sky “now its there.”
“.....so a while.” “I think.”
“........you should sleep……you sound tired.” “Is…..that what it is? What you……you……you did?”
Chosen nodded.
“Here….” With a gentleness that Chosen didn’t know still lingered he brought Dark into his arms. The stick stiffened as Chosen led him to his lap, Chosen then laying over the stick like a makeshift blanket. He curled his arms underneath himself as a makeshift pillow on Dark’s side. The stick watched him with curious weary eyes.
“......will i……wake…….wake up…..?”
“Yes.”
“......is it…….scary?”
“It can be. But there’s nothing to be scared of now. We’re ok now.”
“.......have you ever….slept on…….” Dark didn’t have the word right now, weakly grabbing a fist full of the plant life under him
“.....grass?”
“Yes…..”
“No. But we’ll give it a try, ok?”
“......’k………st’y?”
“I’m not leaving.”
Dark smiled at that. Sagging as he’d watch Chosen do he let his eyes slip shut. Fading into sleep.
Chosen watched for a few more moments. Heaving a yawn before sleep claimed him as well.

C-Dramas/K-Dramas/J-Dramas are asian-flavored telenovelas and idk why people get so mad when I mention it.
#I'm a big fan of both if u ask me#but yeah#romantic implausible story#the protagonist is usually a human mat#the villain is over-the-top almost cartoonishly evil#there's the plucky best friend#the joke character that skirts the line between cliché and problematic#the impossibly hot impossibly rich love interest#key scenes repeated multiple times from multiple angles#the DRAMATIC CLOSE UPS#the earworm main theme#the emphasis on family and tradition vs freedom to be yourself#and they both must include at least one person hit by a car#in the most over-acted way possible

I still wanna write the impulsive S1 Stoncy three-way that’s predicated by Joyce going missing instead. There’s no UD and she’s fine; she just got accidentally locked in a weird closet at work or something. Both because I don’t want to deal with too much sci-fi or tragedy, and because I think it’s very funny for the rumor mill at Hawkins High to abruptly switch from “the weird kid’s crazy mom went missing (probably because she’s crazy)” to “the weird kid, the most popular guy in junior year, and some cute but dorky sophomore all had a threesome.”
#the Joyce situation is still grim though#she covers for a coworker Sunday night without her manager’s knowledge#and the coworker doesn’t want anyone to know that they didn’t work that night#so they’re like yeah I totally saw Joyce leave the store#meanwhile jonathan and will figure she’s just working until Monday night#once Jonathan figures out something’s wrong he’s also conflicted#about the consequences of calling vs not calling the police#honestly he might go to see lonnie before giving up and going to the police station#idk man no matter how lighthearted a story is#it’s hard to ignore the plight of the byers family#Nancy (in Karen from Mean Girls voice): do you want to do something fun?!? do you want to go to a party?!?#(the funniest part of this idea I think)#(is that Steve immediately reacts to Nancy bringing Jonathan to the party)#(by taking him WAY too seriously as a romantic rival)#(like oh this is the kind of guy Nancy likes? FUCK)#(ugh he’s so brooding and mysterious and probably really sophisticated)#(I bet he thinks I’m SO boring. I’ll show them both. by proposing a threesome)

every time someone tries to equate dnap/gnap relationship to a familial dynamic i turn to fauxcest out of spite. like yeah, sure, dream is sapnap's older brother and they have sex! george is sapnap's dad who goads him into misbehaving so he can punish his son and fuck him so hard he cries!
now what.
#and then acting like dnf “flirting the whole stream” somehow makes them the superior dynamic#dnf arent somehow better just bc You interpret their interactions as romantic vs dnap/gnap being familial#i hate you#discourse#limitless yaps

i have to remember what website i'm on because i should not have been so caught off guard to see multiple people seeming to forget that families exist and ascribing a man saying he loves his cousin to being some kind of canon yaoi moment
#starting to see what drives some people to constantly say 'romantic love is not better than other kinds of love' like a prayer#they're trying to ward off this kind of thing i guess#especially considering the performers are actually family i thought i might be safe from shippingbrain in this moment. alas#like outside of the obvious i really am surprised that i didn't really see people enjoying this for what it actually is#working with family is very complicated i think the new bloodline drama is an interesting story#and its not like there wasn't gay shit happening on smackdown. did those guys in their 40s trying to out-queen each other mean nothing?#did you see naomi vs chelsea green? it's like their ass and face were magnetized to each other#wwe

having a lot of thoughts about aromanticism and how that interacts with my idea of friendship vs romance
#the line between the two is so thin that it barely exists for me#i am (for lack of a better term) 'in love' with all of my friends#the traditional idea of dating is generally uncomfortable for me for reasons i cant coherently explain#but the feeling i get around my friends is similar to that of what i assume people get when theyre around their partner or crush#and i feel that way without the drive to pursue a 'deeper relationship' with them#because why would i? i already have that. we're already friends#it gets a little complicated once you introduce sex into the mix because i am by no means asexual#but to keep it concise - the answer would probably be yes lmao#talk#aromanticism#aromantic#thoughts after posting: i wonder if i would call this hyper-romanticism as opposed to aromanticism?#idk if that term already has a meaning im just talking out of my ass here lol#but there IS a difference between the platonic relationships i have with my friends vs my family#with my friendships being considerably more romantic than my familial relationships (at risk of stating the obvious lol)#so i feel strange using the term platonic to describe both since there are completely different feelings associated with both of them#so idk. maybe that means i Do have feelings of romance#but id still consider it aromantic bc its outside of the traditional definition of romance.#because as stated before: all of my friends are my 'partners' in some way#maybe thats weird to say though lol

Something got me thinking about OC siblings and f/os, and I suddenly came to a conclusion that Cornelius (older brother of my Arcana s/i) and Liang are kinda similar. At the very least in a way that they both possess such an ambivalent temperament.
Like, at first they seem like very calm and serious people, but then something goes wrong, you push the wrong button, and now they are trying to throw a table at you (well, Cornelius is trying. Liang is succeeding).
#I happen to find this type of character very entertaining#But then there's a huge difference in their relationships with my s/is and I'm not talking about familial ties vs friendship/romantic ties#Also it's interesting how I gave my s/is older brothers TWICE only to make their relationship a complete disaster#In reality I am the older sister of two little imbeciles. I don't have any older siblings or even cousins.#f/o: the martial artist

whenever ppl talk about the lestat and gabrielle stuff i see a lot of ppl act like it was one-sided and sudden on lestat's part but i think that ignores that their first interaction in the book includes gabrielle going into lestat's bedroom and telling him about one of her sexual fantasies
#i personally would consider that her encouraging (or at least not discouraging) a particular dynamic between them#i'm just seeing a lot more of this pop up after the s3 announcement and i'm like i get that a lot of it is jokes but still#i feel very strongly about this particular thing bc even if he did 100% initiate a sexual/romantic relationship w his mother it's her job-#as the parent to shut that down and hold to those boundaries between familial and romantic but she doesn't and that's the problem#and on the one hand i get that it's different in the books vs the show bc lestat was 20 in the books and in his 30s in the show but still#i also understand that there are a lot of complicated layers to this but i feel that this is a layer that shouldn't be discarded#vampterview

the adelaide angst has been stuck in my brain for a while
#not at the forefront of my brain it just kind of lingers at the back of all my ideas#i think about it often. ow#my boy needs to cry in the rain. or get a hug or something#he deserves Something at least. bc he's not getting his family back that's for sure#the thing that kind of stuck was the idea of him saying “(yes you love me) but not the way i love you”. that line is usually used in#romantic vs platonic settings but it is so much more complex here. maybe him comparing the gravity of how much they cared. or maybe the#specificity of what they cared about. they liked each other well enough sure. they can be friends. they can be siblings. but they never#needed to be a family as a unit. not like how he needed it#and now he looks selfish. or like an idiot. or both. he's going to take this so hard lmao i think i actually broke him 😭 like genuinely#ari.stuffs#s/i: adelaide
