[goodoldwritings]

gaah u have no idea how excited i was 2 find sfl writers out there,,,, it was a pleasant surprise!!! but uhm anyway i was wondering if i could request the four main cultists from date to die for x a masc reader like after the events of the game where its all happy and cheery and stuff... im not sure how it would work for Buck, but i rlly wanna see more of him 😭 if u cant think of anything i would be just as happy if you did before the events of the game instead!! sorry if this is too much but thank u!!!

A lovely ask! I wondered if anyone would ask for the cultists, However I don't have Character edits for them yet.

Warnings:

Spoilers for: Sucker For Love Date To Die For

Summary:

Headcanons for Buck, Kid, Nanni and Billy getting a happily ever after with a masculine reader.

Nanni:

Hot girl summer? Nah 💅Hot girl eternity💅

Even if she is the stereotypical hot blonde girl she isn't stupid, trusting? Yes but not stupid.

Matching nails, it doesn't matter your personality nor your opinion on nail polish you at the very LEAST have your pinkies done to match hers and at the MOST have matching outfits too!

I have this feeling she would volunteer at the library with Muu and gush about the best couples in town. Occationally Rhok'zan joins in to be filled in on all the relationship gossip.

Easily apologizes for her actions in the cult without you asking her to, forgets who she's already apologized to and starts a list in her bedroom.

The only one with family to meet! (None of the other cultists Mentioned family) Nanni constantly elbows you to not mention the cult stuff in front of her parents because they forgot when the world ended and started again.

Also+ double dates with Rhok'zan and Stardust! You are good friends with the pair (How does one give hooves a manicure? Nanni probably looks up a tutorial about caring for goat and Cow hooves to take inspiration from to do it herself)

Rhok'zan loves your relationship with Nanni! You're adorable and she's expecting younglings from you asap! She would love to babysit!

Billy:

Hear me out, Billy is opening a gym, it just feels right. The Gym is based on honor and respect and keeps the utopian folks from "getting soft"

Your "romantic moments" are wrestling eachother to the ground at the gym. She probably kicks your butt no matter how good or bad of shape you are in.

Takes the longest to apologize for any of her actions in the cult, mostly she's just apologizing to Rhok'zan and Stardust.

You two probably keep the town safe by just existing, every Utopia has people who want to mess it up but- look at Billy and think "would I want to fight her and do her loved ones harm?-" No. She will go John wick.

Kid annoys Billy but you don't mind him, it's funny to watch them interact. Sometimes you take Kid with you to the gym just to mess with Billy.

Despite how rough tough and difficult Billy is, helping her braid her hair is a soft activity you two probably do. She is a tad tsundere about it but... she totally could do her hair herself, so she's letting you do it.

Rhok'zan is Concerned, she knows all relationships are different but watching Billy pin you to the floor in a chokehold (lovingly) has her perplexed.

Kid:

I had the most ideas for him first, hear me out- You write and play music together! (Or if you're not musically talented you help the best ya can!)

In Rhok'zan's almost utopian world you two are like a two person boy band working on making his dream come true without Bucks magic brainwashing.

Or you're like his manager, keeping him from doing stupid things in the heat of the moment.

But first there is the guilt, he cannot apologize to most of the people he wronged because they don't remember. He remembers and it causes him doubt about his career on bad days.

Similarly to wondering if his fans have the free will to love him, he wonders if you too are somehow brainwashed by this world. Prepare for clingy mornings and "are you sure you're not under a spell-"

"Yes, I'm sure you dummy."

Given its a masculine reader- sharing clothes and accessories, he loves to match! At the very least match bracelets at all times.

Rhok'zan thinks your relationship is adorable! You're good for eachother (and definitely wants to use her powers to get you some kids but that's intense!)

Buck:

"I can fix him I swear." I'm kidding! If I can love Nyanlathotep, you can love Buck.

It took a while for stardust to convince Buck to come see the Utopia world. That is when you met.

The first thing is his appearance, he is... messed up, but I just imagine after the equivalent of eons gazing at the stars he has this cool starry look to him. Give the man smoochy kisses to make him feel better, just smother him in affection-

Emotional support, Therapy human.

You are quickly trusted to supervise him and be his tour guide around. Buck has no access to magic nor is he really mad anymore.

You get him some nice clothes and he stays with you at your home, he is a homebody these days with his appearance and what he's done.

Eventually you set up a meeting with the others (Nanni, Kid, Billy and Stardust) for apologies but getting Him and Rhok'zan in the same room is far harder- given he tortured her and they are Exes.

Rhok'zan is worried about you with your relationship but definitely thinks you are good for Buck. Keeps an eye on you jussst in case she thinks he mistreats you.

Hi' I think a few days/weeks ago u answered an ask abt cvtting over scars, and u mentioned that it was harder to keep heavily scarred areas clean. Do u have any advice for that, or is it just harder no matter what you do? And similarly, do u have advice for keeping areas that r cvt clean? Like I obviously don't want to b getting soap in my cvts/scabs when I'm showering but at this point I don't think I have fully/properly cleaned my thighs in like a year bcuz they've always got smth healing on them that I don't wanna get soap in, which is obviously not really good lmao.

And sorry if u don't wanna b giving advice/getting asks like this! U just seem very knowledgeable abt this stuff and searching online has only brought up "how to remove scars, nice clean smooth skin now" type shit lol. Absolutely feel free to ignore this if u want to or it makes u uncomfy /gen

hi hi!

So for cleaning highly scarred areas, you just basically have to be more diligent and careful. for my fully healed sc4rs, I lightly exfoliate and then wash with a soft, moisturizing soap after. then I moisturize the scars afterwards. I also put on a lot of sunscreen and try to keep them covered when the sun is out. highly scarred areas just pick up more dirt and grime cuz they are an uneven, oily, unpredictable surface with a bunch of dips and crevices for shit to get into. it's like one of my biggest annoyances with long term $H

for cleaning healing cvts, it gets complicated. for babies, styros, or fully scabbed beans I honestly would just wash my whole body in mild unscented soap (like dial) if you have a beans cvt that isn't fully scabbed, I would try my best to avoid getting soap in it, but it won't kill you. just be sure to rinse it well afterwards. then pat all ur cvts dry, possibly rinse with saline as well if if feel you need the extra security, and then put on some Neosporin. if it's beans and it's still open, only put on the edges of ur wound, not the inside. I would then cover them again if they're still open with nonstick bandages.

I know how annoying constantly having something healing is. if anything is deeper than beans, I honestly think you should try your best to get stitches and follow their aftercare instructions for that. I haven't healed anything deeper than beans since I started actually doing aftercare, and while I've healed things deeper than beans without medical help as a teen, I don't want to say how I did because it was irresponsible

also the products I specifically use for scar care are mostly from Lush, I use the Sticky Dates soap and the King of Skin for moisturizer. I don't have a specific scrub, I just get the cheap shit from Marshalls low-key.

for cvt aftercare I specifically use dial clear hypoallergenic, the same thing alot of ppl use with tattoo aftercare. honestly, if you don't hit deeper than styro, tattoo aftercare is pretty close to how you should take care of urself.

I hope this is helpful! Please feel free to ask any clarifying questions!

[cyber-phobia]

Heyo feel like we haven't interacted in a hot minute so I've broken into ur home to annoy you 🏠🪟🏏 (sorry ab whatever tf that last thing is I'm uncultured and there wasn't a bat emoji but I wager I could reasonably break a window with the strange similarly oblong handheld sports device pictured)

Anywaysssss wanna share your favorite genshin teams with the class? Favorite elem. reactions? What comp do you usually use for abyss runs and do all your dps characters have respectable crit ratios? Also which nation is your favorite?

Feel free to answer all, none, or some of the questions provided, I eagerly await your responding missive (or not, if you don't feel like it, no pressure bro) 🫡

oooo my Neuvilette team makes every super easy but I gotta say my Alhaitham team is the most fun! (biased bc he was my first limited 5 star)

Neuvillette is my best built character overall though lmao

I love dendro reactions, but I have so many hydro characters I feel like im almost obligated to say its my favorite element.

Mondstadt will always be my #1!! But Fontaine gave me lots of lore to chew on.

floor 12 my abhorred </3

[lamp-oil-enjoyer]

so there's this girl

literally the most beautiful person i have ever seen in my entire life

i met her at a fucking anime con of all places, we didn't talk there but i saw her and felt non-heterosexual emotions towards that pretty girl in cosplay

i later found her instagram and felt non-heterosexual emotions towards that pretty girl completely unrelated to the cosplay, in her instagram i found out she's really cool, same age as me and pansexual (WHICH IS VERY GOOD FOR ME, A GIRL)

my mentally ill brain, with negative self-esteem and confidence was like "it's impossible, you don't have a chance, don't even bother trying", unfortunately for my brain but fortunately for me i told my friends i saw a cute girl in cosplay and they encouraged me to text her, and being a highly influenceable person i did it

it was the first time i ever did something like this and that not being enough she didn't know i was trans yet so i was scared, she didn't care at all, we talked for a while, i was super scared of being annoying or making her uncomfortable where she wouldn't want to talk to me anymore, at one point i even made that clear to her so she'd tell me if i did anything that made her uncomfortable

but we just kept talking, not only was i talking to her I WAS VERY CLEARLY FLIRTING WITH HER SINCE DAY ONE AND SHE WAS FINE WITH IT AND SOMETIMES RESPONDED IN A SIMILARLY INTERESTED WAY (there was this one time she posted a pretty photo and i said how she was so pretty in it, i had also posted a photo, i basically made it very clear that she's beautiful, and she said "personally, i think you're prettier than me")

my brain was flabbergasted, later on i even got her number, and it's been amazing so far, we get along well, i'm still always scared of messing up or her realizing i'm not good enough for the amazing person she is

we've been talking for about a month and with a courage i did not know i had i very nervously asked her out reassuring her multiple times it was perfectly fine if she just said no

SHE SAID YES, not exactly yes, more specifically she said "i'm free next weekend :)" it really feels too good to be true, we didn't say it was a date and it's very ambiguous if she's into me or not but it's VERY clear i am REALLY into her and i'm so excited we're going to see each other for the first time i can't even sleep but also afraid we don't get along that well irl but also VERY EXCITED to see her

so yeah i'm happy

oh and i forgot to mention, the whole seeing her at the con, messaging her on instagram thing happened literally 2 days after i got to the conclusion that i'm completely unlovable and it is numerically impossible for anyone to be romantically interested in me especially knowing that i'm trans, ace, etc (all things she knows about)

my therapist is gonna be real happy with me this week

i'm perfectly aware that nothing much will happen in my date(?) but one can only dream like i really wanna kiss her and hold hands and hug and do that type of stuff also kiss her cheek and just be affectionate in general i like that stuff

btw we're probably just going to a burger king or the shitty small town mall we have that's nearly bankrupt with a whole third of the mall being literally empty, it's pretty lame but it's the best we got where we live

please wish me good luck on my ambiguous meeting that could be a date

for the writing ask: 10, 11 & 25, please? 💛

I answered 10 in another post! Just one second ago.

11. Three tropes that are fine but overrated.

Oooh complaining, my favorite, hahahaha. Umm, I like emotional competency in my characters so tropes where they've been in love for 10 years and never fucking said anything annoys the shit out of me. Get over your fucking self. Like pine for a year max and then send them a damn text. "Hey I like being your friend for sure but feel free to kiss me if you ever wanna kiss me? I feel like we could be a couple romantically but NBD either way" If your relationship can't survive that then it's a dead end anyway, and the person you have a crush on is a garbage human who is not worthy of your precious time.

Similarly when two characters with a past don't recognize each other (this doesn't just happen with Stucky, but Steve not recognizing post WS Bucky despite seeing him every day for months because he has a mustache or whatever is a common one) also strains me. Like, get your life together, character, if you want me to care about you, and also if you seriously don't recognize this person at all after X amount of interaction, did you ever really have a solid foundation?

The prompt is three, so a third is when a very, very, very basic miscommunication leads to 9,000 chapters of suffering and angst. Again, if a clarifying text of "Did you mean you hate me, or did you actually hate the scrambled eggs at brunch" can solve the whole plot, I lose all respect for the characters because life is hard, and shitty, and there are so many barriers that can fuck your shit up when you are doing your absolute fucking best, so I get annoyed when all of a character's problems are their own fault.

In case you are wondering, I am VERY annoying to watch TV with.

Like anything, when those tropes are done well they are exquisite and perfect and the best thing I've ever read and I have to lay on the floor to recover from the beauty, because when they are perfect, they are beyond perfection.

I think any trope can be done well and delight in nothing more than when a humble 'there was only one bed' uses that platform to transcend into brilliance. With anything I "don't like" it's more of a "I'm so excited to be proven wrong."

25. Is writing the whole thing beforehand better or worse than writing it as you go?

Por que no los dos?

See this is a complicated answer because I need feedback from other humans to feel like something I wrote is finished, so if I have betas and cheer readers then I can write the whole thing without posting, but I need some kind of feedback to get out of my head. On the one hand, I am writing for myself, but on the other hand, I'm posting to a public forum because I want people to read it, and the feedback during the writing process has always been huge for me.

Typically I like to be at least a few chapters ahead of where I'm posting, to allow the fic to "breathe" before calling it done. Even if a chapter or an entire fic is "done" and I wait a week or more to post it, it always gets better with that final edit.

Garbage Man Interview

First off, for the people, in your own words, who are you, what do you play, where are you from, and what is the name of your band?

Hi there, I'm Nick Duude and I play guitar and do vocals for Garbage Man from Wisconsin and, more recently, Iowa. 

You guys are a noise rock band, I think it’s safe to say- when I first saw you play Billings maybe 10 (jesus christ) years ago, you were much less abrasive, yet somehow more…. Annoying. In the best way possible. how did the evolution in the sound start? Was the iteration of the band now always the vision, 10 (jesus fucking christ) years ago?

It was! The long reigning problem is booking tours, and having last minute cancellations. Our (then) current drummer couldn't get out of some work obligations, so we said "fuck it" and busted out some trash cans. That was for one tour only, but ended up working out well for us in a pinch.

Are you still doing Bob's Angry Pins? If so, any specials you got going on, that you wanna plug? Or any other side hustles you wanna plug?

You betcha, all for bands all day! Working on getting some new sizes, as well as styles in. Our newest one is going to be reflective iridescent buttons with custom designs underneath. They look pretty neat!

If you're bothering to use your internal voice to read my word, I'll give you 10% off an order! Just mention this interview or Julia Louis Dreyfest from now until the end of August 2022.

I’m trying to remember, last time we played Sheboygan with you, there was like a famous punk guy from the 80s at the show… as you may recall I had a hard time recollecting much of anything from that night for various reasons… am I remembering this correctly?

There was! They are a long-time supporter of local music and have become a good friend of ours, whether it be drinking whiskey on the patio or playing their banjo before/between/after shows. They prefer to roll in the background, so I don't want to out them and their story, but I miss them and our good friend Teek, the WC owner/operator, very much post-moving to Iowa. Viva La WC; the true cultural germ ground whether folks will/did recognize or not.

I don’t think i’ve ever asked you- do you have any opinions on Making a Murderer? As someone who lived not far from Manitowoc I am assuming you are an expert in the subject.

I'm from about an hour away from where this happened, but I prefer to focus and read on other less televised terrible things that have happened in the state of WI. Some recommended highlights to experience this include:

Wisconsin Death Trip

Ed Gein

The Phoenix Ship Tragedy

Scott Walker doing anything to the state of WI 

Killdozer (the band, not the Ed)

Modern-day property segregation in Milwaukee

Over/Under - yes, we all hate pitchfork, and yes, this is like… “their thing” but dammit! It’s too much fun not to play! I will give you a word/thing/idea, and you just have to say if you think it is underrated or overrated, and feel free to expound on your reasoning as much as you’d like, or not at all!

Culvers -

Under; if Craig was even more of a Republican he would have taken over the Midwest fast food game already

Halloween (the general holiday) -

Over, but I feel this is due to me being naturally old/scary-looking. Boo.

Madison, Wisconsin -

Over, but go get some super sexy fries from Mickey's Tavern while you're there.

Tennis (the sport) -

Over, I've heard it just makes peoples' elbows feel funny

Tennis (the band) -

Over, never listened to them before in my life but I can ignorantly and confidently say I feel this way about them

The EPA -

Over, I know just the right amount of emissions my car needs to be emitting, not them.

Stranger Things -

Under, I've never watched it but they appearedly have the ability to get people into music 40+ years old. Cue the Kate Bush metalcore covers please.

Aaron Rodgers, but purely based on his performance as celebrity host of Jeopardy! -

I didn't watch, but I'd hope it ends similarly to "Wheel.......Of Money!"

Cucumbers -

Under as a utility, over as a food item

The Green Bay Packer Cheese Hat -

Under, pop that fucker on + a beer and a bendy straw; you're ready for Sunday mass and noon kickoff.

Marvin Heemeyer/Killdozer -

Over, he had plenty of chances to dump his shitty land for a profit and nestle himself somewhere else before they pushed him out. He almost got the under due to targeted destruction, which is all anyone can ask for in the end.

Super Smash Brothers -

Under, the 3DS port got the short end. I went to the midnight release with a friend and we were the only ones who showed; show some respect!

Hamms -

Under, don't let the label fool you, it tastes exactly like PBR but it's -$10/30 rack cheaper.

Anime -

Under, watch Akira sometime

Rollerblades -

Over, split the wheels up and build a skateboard

Pissed Jeans -

The feeling? Under. The band? Over, but that song Scrapbooking is a shining star

You can catch Garbage Man during this year's fest at Craft Local on August 5th at 9:30pm!

SEE YOU IN THE PIT!
