I'm not normally one to do anything more than lurk on social media. But 2 days ago I got properly introduced to omegaverse content after being to intimidated for a while, yesterday I discovered Let Me Try, and now I am tearing through LINK content like a rabid dog.
So uh
Thanks?
I still wanted to ask some questions if thats okay.
What are canon ages of the boys at the time of Close your Eyes and Lock Me In?
Do you have an idea of a time gap between those two stories? They seem to be the main points of reference of the timeline
Hello! Yayy, LINK's caught another one!! You're very welcomee heheh<3
Like all the other specifics for the stories, their ages / locations / accents etc. are a bit vague on purpose. I like to leave the room for everyone’s own imagination based on what they’re familiar with. It makes things a bit fuzzy for the timeline sometimes, but I just prefer having the blurred reality instead of basing it on real places and tracking a firm timeline.
But generally, I eyeball the gap between CYE and LMT to be maybe a couple of years.
The later on in the timeline we get with the newer published parts, I’ve been thinking that Kizzy, as the oldest of the four, are now getting closer to the mid-twenties mark and maybe over.
The age order is: Isac as the oldest (by two critical weeks🤺), then Kit, Liam’s a year younger, and then Nathan. -> Nat’s age difference to the others & the gap between the stories could technically vary +/- an extra year or so, depending on whatever length of uni you’d want to imagine.
So basically, the canon is vague and they are all twenty-ish something in CYE and LMT xx
#Sorry it's not a concrete answer :')#but maybe it answers something?#RAMBLE TAGS:#Looking back I can see that the way I write LINK#especially Kit / Iz / Liam#Skews a bit older than their ages in CYE#Based on my personal uni experience:#I think LINK would've been doing a lot more stupid shit if they were acting more “their age"#but then again#Lit has actual careers going that are demanding#And Nat's kinda just tryna survive#and Izzy is laser focused on his degree and probs has offers to join whichever publication he fancies before he's graduated#so keeping that up requires a level of maturity#yeah lets say that...#and ignore how CYE is basically just me wanting to write out all the mental health/psychology/therapy/trauma research#I've done in the past like 10 years#in story form#:')

tbh i feel like it can be a little hard to get a grasp on certain characters in this fandom because of how differently they're portrayed in the play that goes wrong vs the specials vs the shows. like there's enough there that it's obviously the same character but there's also enough differences in personality traits and their relationships to other characters that sometimes it feels a bit hard to come up with a concrete idea of who they are ykwim
#especially with how much canon adjacent material we have for most of them it starts to get a bit overwhelming#maybe that's just me though gkhlsdf. does anyone else struggle with this#idk this is part of the reason why my headcanons are so vibes based i don't think canon has a concrete answer most of the time#and tbf i don't think it needs to given the nature of the show#but i'm the kinda person who gets really insecure about my characterization so it can be hard to balance all of it#anyway. sorry. shouting into the void here lmao#the goes wrong show#marshy speaks

What did Chell do with her friendship bracelet after Wheatgalomaniac?
Ooh, entering deep lore territory, are we?
Ok, so, the bracelets work more or less like PN1's bacon, allowing Chell to telepathically summon Wheatley, maybe even to a point where she could transport his entire mental projection to her. Except, since there's two bracelets, the mental link also goes both ways. This is how she managed to attach a Psychoportal onto Wheatley, by the way:
As to what was their fate after that... Hm. That's going to depend on whether or not I'll tinker with the ending and/or Chell's general role in the story, as I have a few ideas about that; in any case, I don't imagine she is the type of person to retain any warm feelings about Aperture Paranormal and its employees, but that doesn't mean she'll necessarily get rid of her bracelet. Wheatley, however, not only keeps his, but also attaches a tiny Psitanium crystal, so he knows for certain he won't lose it.
Actually, wait, you know what? Theoretically, as long as these things are intact, there is a possibility they work suuuuper long distance, so, wherever Chell ends up after getting out of Aperture, she has a way of keeping up with Wheatley. Wouldn't that be nice.

Coke or Pepsi?
Root beer😎
But for real, I have pretty bad reactions with caffeine so I don’t really drink any cola🤷🏻♀️ if I really had to choose, tbh, I’m going Dr. Pepper. Maybe cherry coke… but like, dark soda isn’t a vibe for me bc I’ll feel like I’m dying. Root beer is great. Sprite is great. Love the cranberry ginger ale that they have around the holidays.
#my grandma used to bring cherry coke to me every time she visited#but my mom was a Pepsi kid#sorry I can’t give you a concrete answer#but I really do love rootbeer#thanks for dropping in#anon#Essie answers#coke or Pepsi#root beer

Hi! Your AUs are really cool!🤩
Can you tell us about Toon High? Who is in Mickey and Oswald's family? How did the brothers meet and how did their family become? Are there any antagonists in this AU (maybe bullies? a sly teacher?).
Oh, and one more thing. Ortensia is in this AU. Does she go to Oswald's old or new school? Do Ortensia and Oswald even know each other in Toon High?
Oh gosh, let me pull up those old braincells. Imma be real, not much was planned for this au even all those years ago. So Imma just say rough ideas/answers for these questions. So sorry.
Toon High involves each major film studio as High schools or Universities (maybe idk about Uni). The main two for this au is Walt High and Universal High, but others exist like Gremlins come from a smaller, unknown school.
Mickey and Oswald live under the Disney family. Oswald was the first adopted toon and Mickey came later. Oswald warmed up to Mickey and the two were inseparable, but something happened that changed their dyanmic drastically. Since the event, Oswald has preferred to distant himself from the family. Opting to spend nights at friends or people like Iwerks or Lantz. The two eventually work things out in the end though.
(Note: I've thought about adding some comic lore,but I don't know anything about them so y'all can do what ever ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. I.e. Mickey's toon family live alongside the Disney's idk.)
I had basic antagonist like Pete Cat, Beagle Boys, Mortimer, etc. Even some of the Lantz's villains can be a part of it though that be outside school. I don't know anything about Lantz's cartoons, but y'all can do whatever. There may be some sly teachers. I don't remember who I had or if I had any ideas for that.
Ortensia is in this au. Originally, I had this idea that most of the toons that were under Walt got migrated to Walt High as a reference to that trade for Oswald. That's changed to align with a school universe. So! She went to a private school most of her life, but she eventually convinces her father to let her go to public school. Oswald has met her before when they were younger at a fair, but never properly got to know each other until Oswald happens to pick up a small job as her family's occasional Uber. They both end up going to Walt High and are dating in secret.
#dove asks#oswald the lucky rabbit#mickey mouse#toon high au#so sorry for answering this late#answers may change or just never be concrete#this au is mainly for fun with little to no plot thought out unfortunately (;・∀・)

i'm not sure whether i should go back to this but mutuals, even just like, followers ((anyone i have even the slightest level of familiarity with)), your requests are respected for You i'll trigger tag anything. for Anonymous i will do nothing
#sorry that's just how i work atm#talk to me as a person or don't make requests‚ i think that's reasonable‚ isn't it?#also this is a personal blog anyone can unfollow at any time‚ no bad blood ofc‚ but some things i won't tag are gore and incest#but yeah as soon as there is a concrete need i will answer to it. i don't tag common triggers for the aforementioned reason (here be horror#and the list of the common ones seems. like‚ inconclusive and it doesn't add up for me. like i need principles#moral principles. not conventions. so as soon as it's a Me talking to You thing it's fine#i'm sorry this is an incest blog i already hold the belief that catering to randos or playing to acceptability is not the way to go 😔#so it's just like. baseline is you see what i'm about and if it bothers upsets disgusts you‚ you leave.. i guess.#so even with things other than incest. graphic stuff etc. it falls in the same category for me. but other things aren't integral so i'll#tag those if anyone wants#does my train of thought make sense..#kata.txt

How have you found so much engagement on social media? I’ve really struggled to get my art out there.
Your art is beautiful, but I’ve also seen other accounts with beautiful art with much more or less followers and engagement. I don’t really understand it and I was wondering if you had any insights. Thank you
Hi there!
So - very long reply incoming - I have a couple of thoughts on what has worked for me, but I also wanted to break down what engagement actually looks like and means, because I think it is very easy to look at a post with a couple hundred notes and think "wow, they must have a huge following."
I think it is also very easy to look at someone's art and go, "well, it's good, but why is it getting engagement when mine isn't." Which - well, more below - but isn't really how online engagement works.
1) What does well on tumblr? I think it's helpful to recognize what kind of my art, specifically, gets a lot of engagement. My art that gets Tumblr engagement - reblogs and likes - is almost exclusively my encouragement style art (simple art with an animal and some text), which hits 3 boxes: cute, animals, and text that is either funny or meaningful.
However - my more traditional art styles? Canvas art and watercolour? Rarely hits above 30-50 notes on Tumblr. The same goes for my fanart. It's just straight up not as popular.
And it varies between platforms. On Instagram, all of my art is typically between 25-50 notes. On twitter, it's only fanart that gets notes. It varies, and it depends on the community you've embedded yourself in.
Above all though - what gets notes on Tumblr is a bit of a crapshoot, and reflects little on the quality of the art. It depends on who reblogs it, how big their following is, etc. Sure, art quality sometimes helps - but I see fucking amazing art every day that has very minimal engagement. There is no sure-fire way to get engagement, and the shit that does the BEST for me in regards to sales has almost no notes here.
2) Engage in the community
I think something that I'm still learning is that for the most part, no matter the platform, people will encourage and engage with your art more if you're a part of the community. And that requires you to engage, too.
I am not always good at this one, because this is not my main blog - but I get a lot more followers and engagement when I also reblog other art & posts, because most Tumblr folks want to follow blogs that make their dashes richer on the regular in a variety of ways, rather than every so often with just art.
Reblog things. Like and comment on other people's posts. Make friends. Be a part of Tumblr's community, rather than expecting community to grow around you.
(Note: This is not me saying you don't engage, I don't know anything about your activity on tumblr. Just, y'know, engaging helps get engagement.)
3) Having a brand??
Honestly, I kind of hate this one, because I'm an artist who likes trying lots of new styles and fucking around with different things. BUT, in regards to social media, having a recognizable brand/style makes people more likely to follow you.
For example - my encouragement style art, with plain white background, an animal, and encouragement text, is my most recognizable style on IG, Tumblr, and in my local art community. Probably 95% of my followers on Tumblr are for/from that style of art. It is what it is.
My caveat to this is - while having a brand helps, don't let it limit what you do! Try new things, experiment, etc.
3) Recognize what "lots of engagement" does and does not do
So - it probably looks like I have a lot of engagement on Tumblr, because I have many posts with 500+ notes. But, honestly? I am pretty small fries as an artist. I really, really struggle to get engagement beyond this platform, and even what I get here is pretty minimal in comparison.
I don't have a ton of followers - I've had this blog for 2.5 years, and am currently sitting at around 525 followers. My encouragement art on Tumblr regularly gets hundreds of notes. The exact same art on IG, where I have a similar following, gets typically between 25-50 notes.
However - Tumblr, where I get a lot more "engagement," does not translate to art sales or commissions. Or at least, it very rarely does. On the other hand, Instagram, where I have much less engagement, gets me both more direct sales and commissions, because more people on there know me personally.
TBH, doing local craft style markets has been the most helpful thing in regards to actually making any money off my art. Engaging in my local community has also been the best for connecting with other artists, getting encouragement for my art, and validation.
4) Recognize that engagement means very little about the quality of your art
Y'know, I've gotten inbox mail before that is essentially "your art is shit how come it's getting notes." People see my art (especially my more minimal stuff), think about their own art, and get frustrated that they aren't getting notes.
And I mean, I get it! I think we've all had similar thoughts at certain points. Kind of the "my art is at least that good, how come they have such a big following and I don't"?
But it is really, really helpful to disengage the connection between "good" and "engagement" in your head. Because engagement means very little about the quality of something, and is more tied into "right time, right place, right audience" type of shit.
It's also really helpful to do as an artist, because otherwise it becomes really, really easy to do one of two things:
a) "well, I'm not getting any notes, therefore I'm a bad artist/I make bad art."
Or
b) "Other people getting notes is unfair to me, because my art is good, and I deserve more notes."
I've done it. You've probably done it. We've all had those thoughts/feelings. But they are unhelpful thoughts/feelings, and doing whatever you can to nix both thought patterns is helpful as fuck.
Because a) engagement means nothing about the quality of your art and b) other people getting engagement means nothing about the quality of your art.
Engagement is great! It's nice! I want every artist to have tons and tons of engagement! But an artist getting notes reflects nothing on your art.
And - it's really important to find ways to feel good about your own art that have nothing to do with engagement. If it's the external validation you seek, try and find one or two friends to send your art to who will tell you how much they love it. Start a spreadsheet of the tags/notes that people leave on your art. I dunno, get creative.
But find ways to validate your art that have nothing to do with other people, too. Create something that you don't share with anyone. Spend time making art that's just for you and your own enjoyement. Make something that makes you laugh or smile. Above all, set aside time to fall in love with your own art.
This got really long, but:
TLDR: Fuck, buddy, I don't know lol. What does well on tumblr varies, but people like silly, encouraging, cute shit. Build a consistent style. Engage in community. Know that engagement doesn't necessarily mean much, both in regards to art sales and in regards to the worth and value of your art.
Good luck out there!
#long post#art#in which i philosophize about art again#asks#sorry that i don't really have any concrete answers#i do find this a lil interesting because honestly? i have very little engagement outside of here#and tumblr doesn't really lead to sales for me#so *shrugs*

What happened to fionn to make him so grouchy or has he always been like that? Also
🎉congratulations Fionn your a dad now!🎉
Avfdjhvgbgf he has now acquired the Puppet DILF medal!!🎉
Because we don't know what caused the company that made Welcome Home to shut down, I can't say so for sure, but let's just say something made him very caught up in the company that he broke up with his boyfriend and then a betrayal that made him lose all passions for that beloved show made him bitter and grouchy.
#real world au#sorry I can't give a concrete answer to this#because we don't know what's happening just yet and it might make it harder to develop the AU in the future if I come up with something#I'm also very obsessed with the slice of life aspect of Fionn living with the puppets

Yaldabaoth BOTW AU? Elaborate please 🔥👁️
So I mushed TOTK and BOTW together while also making an original story… I’m still working things out but what I do have for now!
The king, who I’m thinking might be Satanael, receives a message of sorts saying he who holds the Triforce of Power will destroy the land. So he did everything he could to ensure this didn’t happen. He established the Sages, each one tasked with defending their home. The most important Sages for now are Yaldabaoth and Emma. The secret stones are in this, but the name is awful so I’ll call them something else. Before it was discovered who had the Triforce of Power, Yaldabaoth had suggested raising the land into the sky to protect their people. But the king rejected his idea, saying not everyone would be saved.
Upon finding out Yaldabaoth was the holder of the Triforce of Power, his stone was taken from him. The king was acting out of paranoia, Yaldabaoth hadn’t done anything at this point. His stone was given to his younger brother, Salmael.
Yaldabaoth is the “demon king” of this AU, he was sealed away by the king. Before this, the king tasked the head of the Sheikah tech developer, who is Emma, to create a chamber to ensure he couldn’t escape. She did this, however, Yaldabaoth is her brother, and at the time, he hadn’t even done anything to warrant him being sealed. Her loyalty was with Yaldabaoth, not with Satanael. So the “chamber” wasn’t a vessel to hold Yaldabaoth, it was a Divine Beast. She believed that her brother cared for the kingdom despite the omen they heard, thus equipping the Divine Beast with the ability to raise the land into the air.
While Emma was constructing the Divine Beast in secret, Satanael had Yaldabaoth imprisoned. Overtime, the king became more paranoid, and Yaldabaoth became more irate.
When the day came and Yaldabaoth was moved to the “chamber”, he didn’t complain. He knew what Emma had done, he knew that even if he lost his physical form, he would finally be able to prove the king wrong.
The king attempted to use his sage ability to seal him away, not expecting Yaldabaoth to kill them both. The king’s spirit was trapped, while Yaldabaoth’s possessed the Divine Beast, giving him full control of the mechanics. He rose from underground, land rising into the sky with him. In his wake, Malice spread across the land, leaving the first Calamity to wreak havoc on the land below.
Basically the omen the king receives happens because of the measures he took to try and protect his people…
For years, Yaldabaoth stayed peacefully in the sky islands, watching over the people who lived there. He dedicated his time to watching the dragon that roamed the skies with him too, offering him a place to rest during the night.
On the surface, however, he would unleash Calamities every 1,000 years.
The chasm left behind with the Divine Beast rose into the air was covered by the current Hyrule castle.
So some quick character summaries!
Yaldabaoth: Former Sage of Light and Holder of the Triforce of Power. After losing his physical form, he possessed a Divine Beast. He remains somewhat dormant in the sky islands, occasionally releasing a Calamity upon the surface.
Emma: Head Sheikah technology researcher and Sage of Spirit. After her brothers rose to the sky islands, she remained to continue her work with Sheikah technology. During the first Calamity, she worked to construct the four Divine Beasts as well as the guardians.
Salmael: Former Sage of Time, Draconified. Spends his time mindlessly roaming the sky islands. During the night, he will sleep near Yaldabaoth, even though he doesn’t quite remember him.
Satanael: King of Hyrule, Sage of Darkness. His spirit is locked within the Divine Beast.
I'm still planning out a lot of stuff.. But here's what I have figured out for now o(*°▽°*)o
#Ask#Persona 5 AU#BOTW AU#Thank you so much for the ask!! SOrry for the super late response..#I wanted to make sure I had something that was somewhat concrete before I answered (✿◕‿◕✿)#P5T spoilers#I wanted to do more than just replace the botw/totk characters with the gods... I think it's fun!

I was going to write this idea as a story, but my mind keeps flatlining every time I try to coherently make it. I still wanted to share the idea, so here’s a snippet that pretty much summarizes it:
TW: child abuse, neglect
•••
“Mother, is Boulders Quarry dangerous?”
“Pokémon can handle it if they’re prepared and experienced enough,” Twig hums, stirring the stir fry on the stove, “but those are with Pokémon who are trained, and it can still be dangerous even for them. It’s not a dungeon that me or your dad would let you go to for a very long time — not until you’re adult or close to it.”
She hears shattering behind her, and Twig quickly turns around. Opal’s plate, once holding in apple slices and strawberries, is in pieces. The ceramic remains decorate the floor, some stained by bruised fruits and the juices left behind. Twig’s mouth opens, ready to ask if Opal’s okay and warn her about stepping on the sharp pieces, but the words that mean to come out die as she looks at her daughter. Opal’s eyes are wide and slowly become teary. Her body trembles, evidently the cause of the broken plate rather than her potentially tripping. Her stare never leaves Twig, her mouth quivering as words try to come out but never do.
“Opal?” As soon as her name leaves Twig’s mouth, the Marshadow begins to cry. Fat tears roll down her cheeks, only getting heavier when Twig rushes to her side and brings her into an embrace. “Opal, what’s-?”
“I have a friend-” Opal chokes on her words, trying to push through an invisible blockade in her throat. “She- she says that her big sister and brother try to leave her in dungeons by herself to ‘toughen up’ and that they were going to take her to Boulders Quarry today. She doesn’t like fighting — she usually hides when they try, and I can always find her, I haven’t been able to find her- she- I don’t- I wanted to say- she said they’ll run away and take her if anyone knew, and she didn’t want to go away — but now she’s not here, but her big brother and sister are- and- and-!”
Between her blood running cold and her burning organs, Twig manages soft words that she thinks are comforting by the way Opal’s cries calm down, but the Charmeleon can’t hear them. Ark comes into the room, concerned words leaving, but Twig doesn’t hear them. She gently puts Opal into his arms and she thinks that she mentions an emergency, but it all blurs after that. Now she walks out of Boulders Quarry, a quivering, shaking child curled up in her arms. She is careful not to aggravate old wounds that couldn’t have come from the recent the recent dungeon. The familiar excuses are desperately made by the kid, but Twig knows.
“I just got lost.”
“I got this because I fell — I fall a lot.”
“I’m okay, I’m fine. Don’t tell auntie my big brother and sister. I can go by myself.”
Twig knows and, internally, she seethes.
•••
It’s not my best and everyone is probably ooc, but I hope it’s still somewhat enjoyable. Sorry if it isn’t tho!
"Not my best," they say. "I hope it's still somewhat enjoyable," they say. Meanwhile I am holding this fic in my teeth like a rabid dog and shaking it (appreciative) and biting it (adoring) and eating it (complimentary).
I don't have many words to share because I've just been reeling at how good this is ever since it was sent in, but I can't wait to see any more of your work, especially of this concept!
#Twig seeing straight through the excuses#looking at this kid and saying#“I know you're lying.”#the kid starts to panic and tries to make better excuses but Twig stops them and says it's okay and asks if a sleepover w/ Opal sounds fun#flash forward however long it takes for Twig to track down the siblings and when she does#she's a vision of rage and vengeance and fear and guilt and everything a little child who's gone through things no child should feels#those siblings are going to jail#i'm not even sure if their area has a local prison or a judicial system but they're going to ask to be locked up for their own safety#that lizard is going to kill them if they don't have some concrete walls between them and her in the next ten minutes#sorry to hijack the fic you sent in it just got me like (head in my hands head in my hands head in my hands)#the present is a gift fanart#the present is a gift au#shadow baby au#pokémon mystery dungeon#pokemon mystery dungeon#pmd explorers#pmd sky#pmd eos#pmd2#pmd#sofie answers asks

I'm terrified of going to the ob/gyn. I haven't been in more than 6yrs because of it. I'll have panic attacks so bad that I'll pass out from crying, it's so bad. and i'm sure my endometriosis has been getting worse! I just don't know how to be okay with that examination.
I also have a debilitating fear of the ob/gyn and I wish I had sure fire methods to help calm you, and I need them too! I totally understand and empathize. As someone with really inconvenient fears-I can’t drive because I panic so heavily I can’t think- I just want you to know that this fear isn’t embarrassing or irrational, it’s totally real and understandable.
to soothe my anxiety I like doing “prep work” before hard things. before my driving lessons I’d watch videos of driving tutorials, because other people needing help soothed the shame and made me more prepared.
so I suggest finding a small practice in your area (if your insurance allows) on Google and shooting them an email, or calling them! Tell them you’re scared and need reassurance before you make an appointment. I’m sure there’s someone willing to help in a smaller practice. ask plenty of questions during the exam, don’t be afraid to say no, and bring a support person. afterwards by a yummy treat and indulge yourself with a bath or clean sheets

My batfam gender sexuality hcs 🥰🥰🥰🥰:
Bruce: cishet he/him
Dick: cishet he/him
Jason: cishet he/him
Tim: cishet he/him
Steph: butch lesbian to ME! She/her but she’s trying out she/they and doesn’t know how to feel. Might fuck with neos but she’s not ready to take that step yet.
Cass: think early on in accepting that she’s a human being she’d psychoanalyze the fuck outta herself to see where she fits in and be super super super pressed about the entire thing to a detrimental point but as she progresses she’ll be fine. Lesbian, and she’s pretty sure she’s a girl most of the time sure 😄.
Duke: I think he knew he was not straight since he was young (moonlight opened his eyes and broke his heart) but he never really questioned his sexuality at all. The problem is that he doesn’t question it because the idea of gender roles (girls do this. Boys do that.) is so engrained in his mind that it’s not even something he thinks can be changed, if that makes sense? Anyways I don’t think he’s the type to get dysphoria he moreso experiences euphoria when exploring his gender identity. I think he would realize he has different views on his own gender when he sees other people expressing their own differently. Like genuinely he goes to school and sees another boy wearing lipstick and his brain blows up. As of this very moment he’s “exploring” but he’s actually a lil scared to genuinely confront himself about this and uses “there’s bigger problems in the world” to get out of it. End goal is non-binary but for now he’s at the veeeeeeery tail end of questioning.
Damian: I think at the moment Damian’s just not thinking about any of that but it’s in the opposite of duke; he knows he’s probably some kind of queer, both in sexuality and gender, but it’s just. Not top priority for him at the moment. I wanna bring up clothes rq bc, extra hc time, in MY mind Damian does express himself a lot through his clothing and getting to the manor made him a bit shy when it came to skirts and dresses. Seeing the way boys, and especially black and brown boys, who explore their femininity are treated, he just doesn’t mention it at all and the scenario never comes up. He gets more comfortable as time goes on though and later on gets bold enough to wear a dress to an event. He’s stonefaced but slightly regretting it till some younger kid sees him and is awe stricken, like stars in his eyes and asking if he can do that too. Damian feels better about it and resolves to wear whatever he wants more often. I don’t think he ever comes out in big big way (he’d tell the people closest to him but everyone else can just figure it out) but he genuinely doesn’t feel the need to label himself at all.
#the way y’all do Duke and Damián in these hc posts….#Steph I wanted more for you truly but sorry ur unfortunately white#u get more than the boys but today ain’t about you 💔#I WILL say buzzcut steph true#and she’s black in MY mind so in MY mind stud steph true#Cass I have a lot of thoughts about#like for me early on in her lil suicidal era I think she’d find the whole labelling thing complicated and stupid#but surface level deep inside she likes that idea of community but she doesn’t think she deserves it and it burns her#post trying to kill herself with Bruce’s full support#she throws herself into the idea of this community but she kinda like. wants a good grade in being queer as opposed to truly exploring-#-herself. comes to head when she just breaks like crying screaming throwing up and Steph is like ‘why do you even wanna do ts anyways’#and cass doesn’t have an answer#she starts looking inwards and kinda. sets it up as a yes/no question tree for herself and lands with knowing she’s a lesbian but nothing#really concrete about her gender and she’s actually ok with that#imo she ends up with mirror pronouns#as in whatever you call yourself you can call her#I want it to be that earlier she was suffocating herself for others approval but now she’s allowing for vulnerability in a way that serves#her and her alone. this is in the tags and not the post bc y’all are actually pretty ok when it comes to cass in them hcs.#and I wanted the main focus to be on the black and brown boys since y’all always do them dirty 🙃#and just to be mean#Bruce wayne#tim Drake#dick Grayson#Jason Todd#Duke Thomas#damian wayne#cassandra cain#Stephanie brown#btw bringing back my Joey soft adopting damian agenda: damian absolutely made sure Damian knew he could do whatever he wants. Damian’s not-#-used to feeling hesitant about this kinda thing but he’s double embarrassed and joey says he’ll wear the damn thing with him. he does

hi friend, you still have the potential to be sued here in the US, even if you’re not using images. That’s a big part of why authors likes Anna Todd, scrubbed After (with all references to Harry’s name) from the internet when she started charging for it and before any publication would take an interest. (Before anyone comes for me, I’m sure the original has been saved by some third part somewhere. This is the internet after all. But the point remains if she were to be sued, she is able to claim that she did her due diligence by removing any and all content with any reference to Harry Styles from the internet BEFORE she received any payment.) The US is currently starting to crack down on copyright and intellectual property infringement. In large part due to the fact that so many people have received huge payouts over the last ten years. Unfortunately they’re not choosing to go after the ones that have actually gotten rich from the issue. And while the drivers might not care. Their management most certainly will. If you’re choosing to charge for your fiction it might be best to at the very least change names so you might have some form of deniability.
this was an interesting ask, thanks for the heads up again!
I'm not trying to go against your word, but rather wondering about the topic myself because it seems to me it's a huge gray area, so feel free to reach me on my private messages or on anon again if you want. But speaking about Anna Todd, technically she could still be sued even after scrubbing Harry's name from the story because there was still proof on the internet that it was a story about him, if we're talking about defamation it doesn't need to involve the monetization aspect, it's still defamation without it. This would mean that ANY RPF fanfiction is illegal and could be sued (which is not necessarly the case because theres the whole fair use thing).
We're talking about huge payouts, but I'm getting less than fifty dollars a month with Patreon lol would their team really come for me (a poor grad student) on behalf of a billionaire for getting less than fifty dollars a month to help pay school and medical bills? this would need a huge pr work too to make them seem good after doing something so crazy like this.
Talking about defamation, let's say I change names, but this Tumblr would still be up and everything else would easily show that it's about pilot X, this could still be considered illegal because you can tell who it is about. The reason why nobody comes for rpf is because 1) the money people are talking about is just a few bucks most of the time, and 2) it's exactly this real people's FICTION, there's not much to talk about defamation of a worldwide artist when the content you're sharing is for a nich of less than one hundred people, it's not reasonable. I haven't found a past decision about something similar in the US court, if there is, please send it in, but other than that it's a huge speculation thing in my head, which only a judge could clarify.
Patreon and monetizing fanfiction is quite common in fandoms like Chris Evans', for example, and I haven't seen anything legal come from it yet. again because it's unreasonable for those artists to go after their own fans for taking less than a hundred dollars in content that clearly sets a fictional character that just happens to look and have the same name as them because more often than not it's set in an alternative universe.
#this is probably all over the place Im sorry but Im just tired (as in I haven't had a good night of sleep)#also again this is not me trying to go against whatever you said but rather sharing my bits to how I see it if there's something concrete +#pls sned it in#or if there's a fault in what I said feel free to point it#but just letting you know that I might take a few to answer or just not answer because this subject is taking a toll on me#I've seen a few writers doing it on f1blr but people had to point it out because I did it like lol chill#anyways#thanks for adding this btw you sounded more mindful than mean (which i don't think you were trying to sound so all good <3)#millies inbox#anon#f1 fandom#fanfic patreon#it is easier to see those legal problems coming from fanfics that involve the Copyright aspect#anna todd is very specific case in my head#but yeah#it would only make sense if the work were talking about was a seeies#series*#Im not on the hs fandom and I have seen quite a few patreons for him so…#yeah#its a gray area in my head

I just reread svsss and I just have to wonder how good of a life Shen Yuan had when he was in modern day because from the glimpse of what we get, it wasn't that great ? He calls his past self a worthless pretty boy, say he never had hugs before Binghe, he seems like he was an affectionate person (he mentions wanting headpats someone before Binghe) but never actually did it.
And I was wondering what you thought about it ?
Did he say all this? All I remember him saying about his first life is that he had a family that he loved and who loved him, and that’s it. I could be wrong since it’s been a minute since I read the novel, but I’ve always thought that the story never gave us enough on Shen Yuan’s background to give is a concrete understanding of anything in his first life. Hell, people are still unsure about how old he is because his age is given in one (1) random throwaway line!
#svsss asks#anon#sorry I couldn’t give a more concrete answer#if you can find the passages then i could think on it more

You open the door, and are greeted to the sight on a little boy.
You head pulses with intense pain and you feel a wave of vertigo crash onto you. Your thoughts morph, from a simple question of "Who" to 'Naib.'
You have memories of this person but you haven't met them before, or so you thought? In his hands is an item. The little boy hands the item to you and you inspect it. It's a missing book from the notorious author, Detective Bon QueQue Du Bois. Specifically, William Ellis autobiography, how did this this little boy get ahold of this?
*New Item acquired*
The boy speaks, interrupting your thoughts as if he had heard them.
"Don't be afraid, we must leave quickly, the world is corrupting, he' will be arriving soon. We must leave at once." Naib's words seemingly put all your fears at ease. The boy has decided to entertain the idea of the pronoun game. In spite of his insistence on urgency.
"I've traveled far to warn you, I left as soon as I could." You just now notice the happy meal behind him. Had he stopped at Mc Donald before coming to your house? So many questions linger.
A door seemingly erect itself from the floorboard in front of your door. Naib Urges you to enter it. Without warning, a hand emerges reaching Naib! You attempt to warn him but you're too late, the hand grabs ahold of Naib.
"My Happy Meal!" he screams as he's pulled into the orange material on the other side of the door.
Another hand returns quickly to pick up the Happy Meal which had been moved slightly to the left. (Your right) in the scuffle.
The raven and Puppy which had stood by his side remain.
*New Familiars acquired*
A Puppy dressed in early Spanish Cowboy attire.
It's a Raven.
The door remains open,, you're still unsure if you're willing to enter the door but something urges you into it despite what your better instincts.
*You enter the door*
On the other side of the door you're greeted with a display of massive furniture, and floating objects on a suspended platform -Not a platform... a Convergence.
A voice echoes out to fill your thoughts, seemingly able to hear them.
"It's impolite to barge into someone's living quarters so abruptly." The voice continues, looking about you see someone, or something, sat atop a small cushioned chair, which itself sat atop another cushioned chair.
"Thing?" The voice repeated in a contumelious response to your thought. "You yourself are a thing to me," you don't respond as these aren't of your own accord, they are a voice in your head which had appeared this night. "Fine." The voice scoffed, hopping down from it's chair.
"Those creatures have done irreversible damage while passing through my realm. They were holding a lad, he looked like a Naib, as well as what looked like Happy meal from Mc Donald."
Those creatures must have done a number here, no wonder it's so ravaged. --Excuse me?!-- This person seems to know Naib? You ask them were they've taken him.
"Ceibermaunt, that way' just past the thousand foot drop, and horizon line into another realm." You ask the being for their name.
"Let's keep our interactions formal, Vox." Turning to hand light a third candle. The sky lit, "Continuing as we were, I may take you to the closest destination to were Naib was taken." Naib pointed to a curved iron staircase leading to another Convergence.
Reaching the top of the rickety staircase, was a bed which lay atop a pile of various other furniture and items. To the right, a wooden table woven from tree roots used as a makeshift bridge to a.. fireplace?
"Here is the door to your Naib, Go ahead, go on' git." You really don't have a choice.
[Have Sylvia interact with Vox] ?
Vox waits patiently for your response*
Crawl into the fireplace?
[Yes] or [No] ?
NAIB NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!😭😭😭
[Yes] i’ll save him😔😔
#concrete hooves my beloved i love you#i feel stupid to answer this with so few words considering you’re sending me all those paragraphs im sorry im tired😔#i love those asks
