quality ✧ do you need to lower or raise your standards? [Love PAC]

Hello! I believe this is my first pick a card of 2024, I hope you appreciate the topic I chose. This is something that I recently had to recognize and deal with myself, so hopefully you find this reading helpful.

Pick a photo or a number one through three and continue reading to find your reading.

One

No, absolutely not. If anything, your standards are too low. You are like me, at least myself a few weeks/months ago when I did not value myself. You need to understand that you are 100% valuable and loved, and that there is nothing that can depreciate your value. You may have been overconsuming readings, questioning as to why you continue getting into toxic relationships or completely lack a relationship and it's because you have a negative sense of self. Listening to self-worth or self concept subliminals may help you. You are worthy of a healthy, happy relationship but you need to be healthy yourself first. Now keep in mind, healthy does not mean without illnesses. I know from my experience with depression, I will never be healthy, but you CAN have a healthy outlook on life and a healthy sense of self, which is what you are looking for. Especially for my mentally ill friends, no one (not here, at least) is expecting you to be 100% healthy but to be as healthy as you can be, if that makes sense.

Two

Girlie, I hate to tell you but your standards are high as fuck. But is that a bad thing? You tell me. To be clear, when I say girlie I am 100% being gender neutral, this reading is for everyone ^-^! You're giving boss bitch energy, but are you actually a boss bitch? One thing about having high standards is that you also need to meet those standards yourself and you need to ask yourself "would someone like that want to date me"? For example, if you're really aiming for a basketball player or the top CEO, are you actually in a mental and physical space where that will happen? Are you out on the courts, networking and integrating yourself into sports environments? Are you working your way up to the top, making connections with higher ups and building a good reputation? I think you may have good standards, but you aren't reaching them yourself or not putting yourself in environments where you'll meet said person. Also make sure you are actually maintaining those standards too. If you think education is important, and you're actively in education and want someone else who is too, why settle for someone who hates education or isn't looking to educate themselves? Things like that make all the difference. If you want to talk the talk, you need to walk the walk too.

Three

This pile gives me much softer vibes than the other two piles. Your standards and romantic requests may be more traditional, you may want the house and the kids and the white picket fence and that's totally fine! I think you're doing well in terms of your standards, you uphold them and you aren't putting yourself in situations where you are with people who are against that dream or against those standards. I do need to warn you, however, that there are a lot of exploitive people out there, especially when it comes to wanting a more traditional homelife. Waiting is a completely fine thing to do. Don't jump at the first person that looks nice and ticks all the boxes because they may be lying. I don't see terrible things happening for you but I feel like I needed to include a warning. Just be careful and you'll get your wishes <3.

Thats all for today my friends! Check out my masterlist for my previous readings and remember to stay safe in this crazy world! Feel free to send asks with any topics you would like to see in the future.

No, you're seeing the consequences of adults actively choosing to hit children. Every damn time someone bitches and moans about people not being "disciplined", they're quick to blame those who don’t spank for a laundry list of societal ills. Their genius idea is to hit kids even more instead of addressing the root problems. A lot of these youngsters have received a "good ol fashioned beating" once or more than that, and it still didn't do anything.

"I'm not saying you should abuse [children], but..." stop right there, that's exactly what you're suggesting. What exactly do you mean by proper discipline? Or as this person ever so wonderfully puts it "good ol slap on the wrist"? Ah, it's occasionally hitting the young when they say or do things that offends your fragile sensibilities. Adults in positions of power often get away with pulling all manner of fuckshit stunts under the guise of “discipline”. At this point, y'all sound no different from the domineering religious men who think hitting their wives will make them behave aka "Christian Domestic Discipline". Y'all didn't turn out fine at all. Just grew up to be violent bullies and/or enablers.

You hit them once, and it makes you, the adult, feel powerful. Getting that temporary feel-good rush of being in control. That's all it ever does - grant temporary compliance and relief. What will you do then if that one time with the initial amount of physical force doesn't work? Amp up the dosage (pain intensity) until you achieve that same feel-good high? If that keeps up, then these consequences will result: child goes no contact in the future, end up with a # of mental health issues, the child dies from their injuries (or removed from custody if they survive), and the caregiver gets slapped with legal repercussions. No pun intended. In extreme cases, the child will kill their parents/guardians for their own safety when there's no other alternatives.

Funny how it’s only the adults who care about splitting hairs over differences. A child’s brain doesn’t know, nor does it give a shit about “differences” you adults arbitrate. Their brains don’t stop to think “it’s only a smacking, so turn off your fight/flight/fawn/freeze response and halt the cortisol production”.

"Let me tell you, we only did it once." I'm not sure if you're aware of this, but your sample size of 1 anecdote does not trump decades worth of empirical evidence. Correlation doesn't imply causation. Plenty of children got that "one time deal", and they learned to repeat the same behaviors without getting caught. Last time I checked, discipline isn't something you DO to people. Just because you were raised to believe that assault is okay, doesn't mean others feel the same way. I'd recommend looking up survivorship bias and appeal to tradition fallacy.

This non-parent thanks you for coming to my Parenting Opinion Ted Talk.

Yea “I’m not okay” felt like a punch to the gut let mama suguru have his miracle baby please he has enough trauma 🙏😭😪☝🏼

I was NOT in a good headspace for that, I almost ended with Suguru getting a lobotomy. Honestly, I wouldn't mind written a small wip for the non-canon ending for "I am Not okay."

It will be okay

Warnings: male pregnancy, omegaverse, angst, family law/divorce court

A year ago today, Suguru had his breakdown.

A year ago today Suguru and Satoru had a fight, which led them where they are today. Separated but coparenting.

Suguru learned a lot in a year.

Like how it wasn't his fault for the accident, therapy helped him with that.

And it wasn't his fault that he couldn't have a baby. It was Satoru's. Four months after separating, Suguru finally found the courage to go to an OBGYN. He learned that he was fertile, so when he spoke to Satoru while at pick-up. He learned that Satoru had a vasectomy and had been lying to him for y e a r s.

Suguru filed for divorce/bond breaking, but Satoru refused to sign the papers, which led to a long court case of Satoru saying that "Suguru is mentally unwell blah blah blah". Suguru pledged to never ever forgive Satoru for the gaslighting, even if Satoru swears he never had ill intention. The damage is done. His omega literally can not stand the scent Satoru leaves on the kids.

'This is bullshit' .

Suguru was waiting for Satoru at their agreed pick-up spot; trying to keep four pups busy while they wait for their sire to come get them.

"Mom, I don't wanna go" Nanako mumbled.

Suguru had Megumi laying on his chest, scentinh the pup before he leaves, "I know sweatie, it's just for the weekend remember? Then you'll be home Monday. Why don't you go play on the playground?"

Mimiko picked at her fingers, "Dammy, why can't you come home with us?".

Suguru took a deep breath, "Because that's Daddy's home, mommas home is over here now".

Megumi whined, pushing his face deeper into Suguru’s scent gland.

"Hey pups!".

All three pups whined and groaned before latching to Suguru’s side.

"Where's Tsumiki?" Satoru asked.

"She wanted to sleepover at her friends this weekend".

Satoru hummed, "wow already breaking custody agreement-".

Suguru felt his heart dropped, "you know damn well-".

Satoru "hey hey now, not in front of the pups. Anyways, let's go everyone!".

Satoru tried to pull Megumi away from Suguru’s hold. Megumi refused to budge, holding a tight grip on Suguru.

"No!".

Suguru tried to pull Megumi away, "now megs-".

"No! No! No!". Megumi was crying, his grip was locked on Suguru.

"Megs you have to go to your sires-".

"No!".

Satoru huffed, "wow thanks Suguru, I wonder where he learned this now".

Suguru looked at Satoru with wide eyes, "Satoru stop it right now".

☆

"I feel awful".

The sound of the clock ticking and Suguru panicked mumbling was in the room.

"Do you understand why you feel awful?".

Court mandated therapist.

Suguru's lawyer said it would look good on his side to show "improvement" to his mental health and that he was "fit to raise children".

"Gosh, Uraume, you should've seen the way he looked at me when Satoru finally grabbed him. Betrayed... how can he... Jesus... he was already abandoned by his original dam and sire and for Satoru to take him away from my arms... I makes me sick".

Uraume hummed, "you do care about them".

Suguru scoffed, "why wouldn't I? I'm their mother or dam.... they're mine..".

Uraume shuffled to their desk, "I ment to grab this last session". Slipping a paper to Suguru’s chair.

"A flyer to a speed mating? Uraume I'm not-".

"I know. But there will be a lot of single parents.... a lot of them just go for a basic support group aspect, not the dating or mating part".

☆

'This is ridiculous'

Suguru standard in front of a run-down jazz club, or what remains of said structure.

"I think it would be good for you to make connections to those who have been in your shoes, family law is.... a bitch if you'd say".

Suguru rolled his eyes, recounting Uraume's "words of thought". Sighing, Suguru made the decision to walk inside.

Surprisingly, there were a lot of people, soft jazz music was playing in the background, the lights were dimmed. In the front of the door was a table with a name tags, a scent patch and an option red or green wrist bracelet.

A sign that red, 'Red for not looking for a relationship. Green for looking for a relationship'. Suguru could almost smile at the courteous display.

Suguru walked around the small club, grabbing a champagne glass before sitting at a table and watching everyone mingle.

"Do you come here often?".

Suguru's eye widen, the last person he expected to see at speeding mating night, "Nice to see you Sukuna, how's Yuuji?".

Sukuna rolled his eyes, "the little shit can not stop talking about megumi and the sleepover he had the other night".

Suguru smiled, "Well I hope he had a great time".

"You were there?" Sukuna adjusted himself in his seat and pulled out the menu from the corner of the table.

"No. Me and- well, I am trying to separate from Gojo".

Sukuna huffed, "If I knew that I wouldn't have sent Yuuji over there, kinda don't trust pups without a dam or an omega in the house." Snaping his hand a waiter, bringing attention towards the table.

"Do you want anything?"

Suguru hummed, "nothing sweet".

Sukuna smirked, "gotcha babe".

Suguru smiled, taking a sip from his champagne glass, "I would have never thought you'd be the type for a speed mating."

Sukuna smirked before lifting up his wrist, showing the red bracelet, "I come for the support group of it babe".

Suguru smiled, lifting up his wrist, "I guess we had the same idea".

"I guess we did."

The night was going smoothly. Nothing too outrageous that stood out, just two adults enjoying a night of drinking. After the event was done, Sukuna decided to walk Suguru home

Sukuna laughed, "Wow, it sounds like the girls were hard work".

"No kidding, when they first started talking, I swear their first word was 'mine'. Trying to get those two to share made it seem like mission impossible".

Sukuna hummed, "it sounds like you really love those kids".

Suguru smiled at Sukuna before letting out a relaxed sigh, "Yeah.. they are mine".

There was a good quiet pause, not awkward, but quiet, before Sukuna would interrupt the moment, "Can I ask why you and Gojo-".

Suguru rolled his eyes before taking a sip of his drink, "fucker made me believe I couldn't have kids, when in reality, he got a vasectomy without telling anyone".

Sukuna stopped his tracks, mouth agaped, "You're kidding."

"Nope, wish I was".

Now, there was an awkward pause, but instead, it was with a small tone of aggression or disbelief in a way.

"I would offer to be a sperm donor-" Sukuna joked to lighten up the mood.

Suguru laughed before shoving the male.

"But! At least I'm masculine enough to admit that I got my knot tied as soon as possible." Sukuna stopped, "I'm sorry, you didn't deserve that."

"I know, now if that fucker could sign the papers to legally break the bond I could finally feel... free.. in a way. Not in a way to say Gojo was abusive-".

Sukuna stopped the both of them before resting his hands on Suguru’s shoulders, "No, it's fine, I understand."

Suguru raised an eyebrow, "Sukuna, you may be intoxicated, but why are you... being..".

"You remind me a lot of my dam." He quickly stated.

Maybe that's all Suguru needed to hear.

When they arrived at Suguru’s place, Suguru made the decision to let a tipsy Sukuna stay over until the morning.

Sukuna watched as Suguru pulled out the mattress from the couch, grabbing a clean liner and blankets for the alpha.

"Do you have a lawyer?".

"Yeah-"

"A good one? What's the deal?"

Suguru stopped and looked at Sukuna before rubbing his forehead as a stress response, "The only way Gojo is going to break the bond, which he knows I won't understand the circumstances given, I break the bond but that means no custody of any of the pups, no contact. Intensionally, his side is trying to paint me as a "bad dam" for a miscommunication."

Sukauna thought for a moment before pulling out his phone.

"What are you doing".

"Calling my sire's family lawyer. Sounds like classic defamation. "

"Sukuna you don't have to-".

"I can, and I will."

"Why?".

Sukuna took a deep breath, "You really remind me a lot of my Dam."

A/N

04/03 fuck it we making it a series.

Probably one last part which I will continue when I get back from vacation, I have so many drafts.

I can't decide if I want this to include a reader or not, whether it be child reader! Or Suguru just ends up with reader. But also accidentally leaned on Suguru x Sukuna. Accidental, ran out of people.

Ending was kinda rushed that's my bad. Let me know what yall think.

[shouts-into-the-void]

One of my most hated fanfic trends is where that pre-Despair treatment by his classmates is depicted as totally okay and not them being unreasonable. It's especially noticeable in RP blogs or Hinanami fics. They'll often depict his behavior in the second half of Chapter 4 as his default characterization, and have him spend every waking second going after the Reserve Course students and doing nothing else.

Which not only ignores the context of him having been mindwiped, having his first impression of the Reserve Course being the discovery that they apparently destroyed Hope's Peak, and the real source of his anger and depression being the discovery that the class are all terrorists (while being left in the dark about the brainwashing). But it kind of misses the entire point of the whole "talented vs non-talented" theme to have the locally mentally ill kid be the sole cause of the conflict.

Like I'm not against the idea of going against canon, and depicting the rest of the class trying to give him a fair shake. I think there's plenty of friendship interaction potential between him and a number of the class (e.g. Sonia, Imposter, Mahiru, etc.). But to retroactively pretend like they were being completely fair to him and he just brought the ostracism on himself is bullshit.

I think a lot of people also miss the fact that the reason Nagito is so outright antagonistic to Hajime about being a Reserve Course Student is because he feels betrayed. He feels a kinship with Hajime due to their mutual love of Hopes Peak, the two were the closest before everyone turned on him, and he's canonically in love with him. So to find out that Hajime is actually not only talentless, but responsible for destroying the academy they both love and plunging the world into despair?

That's not to say all the rudeness is only because of anger, Nagito's actual personality is actually kind of just like that because he has a God Complex and is more intelligent than all of his peers. Any time he breaks character or looks down on someone, he is kind of a bitch, but more in a "I'm smarter than you, please stop arguing with me when you have no idea what you're talking about" way.

I really do wish people would lean into the potential relationships he has with the rest of the cast more. I don't think there's any way Chisa would have let them keep mistreating him, and I was annoyed that her attempt to explain his actions to the class (which actually did get through to them!) got glossed over in favor of the "Everybody hates Nagito" gag.

Some thoughts on potential relationships:

I personally hc him as besties with Sonia post-canon. Not only because she's the most forgiving, because I feel like the fandom makes her do a lot of emotional labor, but I think they would have similar tastes in novels and I think Sonia's own eccentricities would mean that she isn't as off-put by his weird behavior.

I don't think he would be close with Mahiru, because as much as she's caring and doesn't want him hurt, she's also just very judgemental and I think her tendency to verbally attack people would negatively impact his recovery. I think they would get along, but until she learns how to get past her trauma with her dad and stop letting her friends commit crimes, I think it's at a respectful distance.

While Mikan and Nagito are MLM/WLW Hostility™ I do also think they're friends. They like to bitch at each other, but if anyone dares insult the other they Will Destroy Them. I have always thought of them as working quite closely together during the tragedy for whatever reason, it just seems right in my brain?

I also feel like people miss the wild potential of Nagito just adopting Monica. Like, he raises her from like 10 years old until she's a teenager (I'm assuming she's like 14-15 in the anime?), Monica finally gets someone to actually take care of her instead of abusing and abandoning her, and I'm supposed to believe that they just never speak again? Also Nagito saving and caring for this child after spending his childhood an orphan who was put into dangerous situations a lot is a really great parallel.

I like to think he and Akane do a lot of their recovery at the same time because they're both pretty wasted away by the time they wake up, and they bond little by little. They celebrate when one of them moves up a weight class, but Akane recovers faster so by the end Nagito has to remind her not to break his ribs when she hugs him in joy.

Nekomaru is very helpful in coaching him through his physical recovery due to understanding the limitations of a severe health condition and his experience as a team manager. There's definitely a lot of encouragement on Nekomaru's end because a lot of physical therapy can be embarrassing when things that theoretically should be easy aren't. Basically: Akane, Nekomaru, and Nagito all end up as unlikely gym buddies?

Those are just some of my thoughts and headcanons, absolutely take or leave any of that.

[reine-uls]

if I had a nickel for everytime someone said douma was never wronged in his life, I would actually be able to afford a car

I'm trying so hard not to fight with these tiktok kids

who knew no one there actually knows what "child abuse" or "dehumanizing" means

like you can't be a muzan defender and say douma is the true evil 💀 girl-

I can only rely on Cold Affections during these dark times 😭 I love your fic so much and the way you write douma ❤️‍🩹

take all the time you need n goodluck with your studies <33

Ok. Lemme rant for this. Well it’s not surprising the haters would say that because Douma is a literal sociopath that they assume that he was born as one.

But that’s not true it’s because of how he was raised. People would not care for Douma being abused because it appears that he isn’t, but the truth is, he was abuse and dehumanized. All because of his parents. It was never his fault that he grew up like that. It was the parents. The moment they decided for Douma to be a god figure because of his looks, that’s when you’ll know shit is about to go down. They never treated Douma as a normal human being to begin with.

Especially when the mother killed the father and then the mother kills herself in front of Douma??? Not to mention when he was a child??? Like… did she not consider the idea that a child witnessing all that would traumatized Douma? No. Never. Even though it did not affect Douma that much, but still, they never see Douma as a human since birth. Which is fucked up. And sad.

I see why people view Douma being “pure evil” because he doesn’t feel anything. But he isn’t. Defining pure evil is that you have no sense of morality and mercy. Douma has morality and mercy of a sort because he spent decades “saving” people from tragedy and cruelty of the world. Because he PITIES them, even though he doesn’t feel anything and that he views humans as stupid. He thought eating them and keep them inside of him would be the greatest form of mercy he could offer to his people or anyone he comes across. If he is pure evil, he would NOT stick to his “divine principles” of “saving” people, he wouldn’t be a cult leader to this day if he is pure evil.

Each of the demons have their own struggles and they wouldn’t be the way they are now because of several reasons. Kokushibo wouldn’t be like the way he is because of his father, Douma because of his parents, Akaza because of poverty, Hantegu because of mental illness? I’m not sure, and Daki and Gyutaro because of poverty. Enmu idk… he’s a scammer and a hoe from the train. Rui? I will DEFEND that child. That child is my son.

I can sort of understand… why Muzan is like that because of his illness but brother it’s impossible to defend him to the next track record he did. Like brother did NOT care for anyone but himself. I feel like he has some sort of mercy because he “saves” people like him (Tamayo and Rui) but Muzan is sort of pure evil. Sort of… Man is a douchebag.

The one demon who is pure evil is Gyokko. Like hello? Have you HEARD of his backstory? That’s why I don’t like him. He has this sick sense of fetish of his “art” like he is fascinated with corpse and carcasses in jars. He even killed a child because he’s curious to see his corpse in a jar.

Like… what?

I also don’t like Kaigaku he’s such an asshole… like don’t get me started with that bitch.

[fatmaclover]

12,19 or 23 for mac :-3?

12: What's a headcanon you have for this character?

unibrow mac my beloved <33 if we're talking something more serious though i think itd be that hes got. COMICALLY gay music taste. fag club music is definitely his jam but hes got to get into gaga n shit for my own mental health. this is supported by the fact that in its a very sunny christmas (sorry to bring this ep up again) he literally has TWO rainbow jimi hendrix stickers on his closet door 😭 bud.... howd it take you this long youre literally making your own allegories 😭. sorry im gonna take this one to also say i think he should be More tatted up. rob you can rid yourself of your tats all you want but i know mac gets a tattoo for every boyfriend hes able to keep for longer than a week in my heart. their name right on his skin. this is Always what makes them break up with him.

19: A relationship they have in canon that you don't like?

i feel like "like" is a pretty broad thing for me. i can fucking despise something but it can still be interesting and i still like it. UNFORTUNATELY this is the case about mac and his parents. dear God actually a wretched family dynamic that attacks literally all of my insecurities with some of my own family. something about always making noise, always making a show but never being seen or heard really gets to me. the way even now mac makes it blatantly obvious what hes needing/wanting for emotional fulfillment, but his friends treat him just like his parents did because thats easier than sitting down and dealing with his issues. hes always been ignored so whats a little more?

theres a lot i could go into with this one. how being ronnie the rat was the only time mac would get seen, so of course he was incentivized to keep being a total snitch. how it seems that even joyce ended up adopting those methods against mac, being plenty apathetic towards things that were important to him (not even saying that her blowing him off is undeserved. its very much deserved even if its still a total dick move and heartbreaking that joyce would actively see the environment mac grew up in, and then decide to keep that cycle going for him). the way macs immediate family has interacted with him has affected. so much of his life that its insane. sorry that i wrote a lot about this one its just been on the mind.

oh i suppose i could also say him and carmen. i love you carmen i wish mac was normal you two would be unstoppable as a tgirl and her pet doberman fag duo. im glad youre happy just raising a kid with ur husband tho pls never come back and enjoy your life away from these freaks

23: Favorite picture of this character?

here are the jokey contenders oh my fucking god im sorry. theyre the like basic bitch mac images but theyre so fucking funny to me i think about them 24/7. literally whenever i bring up if im soying over something i want you to picture the second image thats what im doing

for a more serious answer, genuinely i adore nearly every scene fat mac is in. though i suppose the penultimate image of fat mac WOULD be the how mac got fat one

sorry hes like an angel to me here. in the grimy fuckin confessional n all.

i think this one is like. very easily first more than that other one but my shame makes it tied for first instead

sorry. ill stop. dont give me power by letting me post mac images i will empty my whole camera roll going "and isnt he so cute here? and here? and look at his smile here. and look how cute he and joyce are here" until literally every frame of fat mac or mac and joyce in frame together is posted.

[grievedifferent]

What relationships do your characters have with death, in so far as to be what do they think happens, do they fear it, is it often on their mind or do they think it’ll probably be a relief? For specifically characters like Josh or Miles, who don’t really have a “good” ending.

josh was raised in what i keep as a somewhat ambiguously religious home, whereas miles i think was probably raised heavily christian.

bordering into a headcanon here ... for miles, his relationship with religion is complicated, so his views on death are equally so. honestly, i've been going over the relationships miles might have with his siblings and parents, which i think he's honestly sort of "the black sheep" of the family, seen primarily as bullheaded and borderline disrespectful. he doesn't give me "close to my family" vibes ... whereas this contrasts josh extremely so, who is very close to his family and is very family-oriented. miles is on his own, he doesn't "need" anyone, but josh needs people, so much so that the loss of people (an almost medicine for him, or at least his most copiously used coping skill) completely deteriorates him. miles might bitch and moan, but he'll move on usually, he accepts "shit happens", whereas josh has to literally make it right.

josh has always had a connection to death through fantasy, and i mean this by saying he was raised hollywood. his dad is primarily into filming horror (we assume that's basically his entire catalogue, maybe a stray drama here or there), thus josh is sort of "desensitized" to "death" in a very "hollywood" way. gore doesn't scare him (i choose snakes over anything else), the guts and blood don't bother him, i don't think he's very scared of bugs or rodents tbh (going around in that hotel beneath the lodge? yeah, there's bugs and rats for sure down there ... and he just gives me "put bugs on hannah as kid to scare her" vibes if he's melting army dudes with chris), i think that josh needs certain triggers to be "scared". he's also raised in such a weird age of the internet that we have to also consider. miles is also older than josh canonically speaking, so he has more life experience.

here's the thing: josh has seen a lot of fake deaths pre-hannah and beth, whereas miles was reporting on wars. to josh, his sisters just "went away and never came back, assumed rightly dead". before UD, he doesn't "see death" in the way miles might have.

now, we don't know how involved miles is as a journalist, he could be totally at home, but he gives me "out in the field" vibes, which we can safely assume since he literally does this in-game. that's why he's there. we could also say he "gets more out in the field" by himself independently, but i don't know, i can see him traveling for work even if hired by another company. he's got the perfect life for it being single, not close to his family, etc. he's got endless time for that sort of thing. but again, that's debatable, but miles is ultimately dealing with "real world tragedy and death", whereas josh is much more sheltered. josh is also mentally ill in ways miles is not. they sort of compare and contrast immensely well tbh.

because of this, i think miles has less of a "fear of death" and more of a fear of "running out of time" with the exterior of "death is coming". he's just like that. he accepts death by the end of outlast in a way humans that have truly "only been through it" really can. he is exhausted in all ways, but makes it to the end knowing he will not leave. that says something, i think.

whereas josh? he fears death. fully. he does not want to die. he doesn't want anyone to die. ever. ever. yet ... josh is always thinking about death, either his own, his sisters, or fake death (via the movies).

i think not knowing what happens after is truly terrifying for josh, more after hannah and beth because ... where are they? yet he's also suicidal, so there's that. but suicidal doesn't often mean lack of a fear of death, which we also have to keep josh's mental states in mind. such as his manic states, his mood swings, his lack of being able to see reality, his presumed hallucinations that are very much validated by the game (thus we can assume were a symptom before the game, only agitated by the situations he is presented with ... why else would he assume hannah's creature form isn't real? he knows he sees things that are not there, he's even (imo) trained himself to ignore these things in his daily life). i think in a way, josh can romanticize the idea of death via music, writing, etc ... but actual death? out of his control especially? it's too much.

interesting enough, you didn't quite ask, but yagami fears death extremely. we see this in the manga more than the anime where he begs ryuk to let him live, crying even.

🌍 and 🔍 obviously for Armand

Fuck yes tysm anon looooove this animal!!!! "Obviously for Armand" is killing me like yes so true he is my brand

🔎: something about the modern era not referenced in the books that you think [insert character] would find upsetting or confusing + why?

This almost feels too obvious but the invasion of Ukraine I imagine would be pretty triggering and upsetting for Armand. For pretty self explanatory grew up in Kiev under invasion slash power of Ghengis Khan subsequent kidnapping and selling trauma.

On a less serious note I think Armand would find combat video games rlly confusing lmao. Ik this is probably a hot take but I have reasoning ! In devil's minion Armand describes to Daniel how he doesn't understand war or violence between men cuz violence to him isn't something he would ever choose, it's not exciting to him and it doesnt like call to him the way he imagines it does to other ppl, he is only so violent because he was born into violence raised to become used to pain and as a vampire violence is inherent + necessary.

So like I imagine if he found out about first person shooters killing games etc he wouldn't understand why they exist 😭 I think he'd really enjoy the technological and mechanic aspects that go into a game and find them really appealing for that reason (I could def see Armand having a gamer phase) but conceptually killing games would confuse him. I imagine while crushing Daniel in call of duty Armand's questioning him the whole time over why it is so overwhelmingly common for mortals to design experiences were they can fantsize about taking life while Daniel is just like oh my god Armand its not that deep ur distracting me 😭

🌍: if [insert character] were human and so was everyone else, what would their life be like? for example: what would their career be? where would they live? what about their relationship to [insert character]?

Oooo don't u dare activate human au brain (excitement). I love human aus cuz it strips away any supernatural justification for the characters being so fucked up and instantly reduces them to guys who r just like that it's so funny.

I could see Armand as an interior designer, smth sort of formulaic but still artistic. Interior design calls to me for him cuz of his passion for designing his loved ones elaborately lavish living spaces as a form of love language (trinity gate, night island). Obvs I have a human au and my Armand live's in New York, so I'm gonna go with that. Interior designer living in New York Lmao whose in the worst ever pseudo polycule with his old friend (derogatory) Lestat, Lestat's husband Armands ex husband (non literal) slash current boyfriend Louis and his bitch he keeps on a leash and does kink with in non consenting public spaces Daniel.

It feels so silly saying this cuz my fic is literally a social media au but I think that in a general human au Armand would not use social media like he'd have accounts and use the Internet but I can not see him blogging tweeting tiktoking etc. having a social media presence requires a certain level of gratification and enjoyment with sharing urself with others and being a public figure that army doesnt have lmao he hates to be perceived + consumed and thats what being online is all about ❤️

Anyways relationship wise I think Daniel is the most interesting to talk about in a human au cuz there relationship is so centrally vampiric like the whole conflict and crazy devotion comes from that, and in my heart and soul a human devil's minion has the same insanity that is justified by Daniel just being very mentally ill and Armand just being very into bdsm and blood play role play shit, love wins. Kidding they r both very mentally ill, I imagine the vampire conflict would translate into daniel being crazy obsessed with Armand and desperately longing for a deeper emotional intimacy and commitment, maybe even marriage, and armand keeps pushing him away cuz for trauma reasons he likes to keep ppl at arms length, so they r just doing bdsm shit but they r in love and army doesn't know what to do with that cuz the vulnerability of being emotionally intimate is scarier then physical esp when u have the power in the sexual dynamic. also Daniel alcoholism plus Armand every disorder and trauma is a formula for big blow out arguments all the time. Maybe they get healthy one day and adopt some fuck ass kid or two (Benji and sybelle wink wink)

Human au Marius wise makes me shudder cuz the most canon accurate stand in would be Marius adopts Armand when he's a kid or takes him in, fosters him, etc which is pretty hashtag disturbing 😭 but if I were to write a human au that's not millennia gate (my fic) that's what I'd do 😊

Armands history with Lestat and Louis I imagine would be pretty similar to canon just to a smaller less vampiric scale cuz queer ppl r just like that they r all exes they r all dating and having casual sex and marrying. I would elaborate more on this but I would just be semi spoiling my plans for my fic Lmao so ig stay tuned

Anyways love u for this anon I love Armand love that animal he is my fav ever shrieks and explodes

Oh that to bash my generation

AT LEAST BOOMERS HAD THE HIPPIES

https://x.com/southernkeeks/status/1784576489003856008?s=46

….Do you have ANY idea how many times our elders hammer down how shitty life was for them 40-50 years ago growing up?

How it was hammer down our throats? Did I mention that insulating time traveling cartoon movie of MLK where they stated his Martydom was NEEDED to change the world?

How the fuck did the king family-wait I heard they been a mess since his death. Nvm

But people wondering why zoomer college kids are so unhinged….okay story good Steven universe fans. I just wanted to show how long this mess was

But since you know I been in the asylum that’s is tumblr…um not surprising. For some goddamn reasons, late boomers and gen x (not all but you know) decided to like social media and tv will raised their kids

And given how over a decade misandrists and racist af non whites was go unchecked….

I think a lot of people forget that my generation grew up when people with untreated mental illness, unresolved parental issues, and it was socially acceptable to treat white people and men the same way the Nazis viewed the Jews because oppressed vs the oppressors. You end up with this

A lot of people don’t realize the crazy sjw/tumblr crowd PREYED kids. So when you have mentally stunted people who think like Star Wars (oh let leave out the character we talked about in the DMs. They are a landmine) preferring the galactic emperor/first order over the rebellion/resistance means your a Nazi apologist

Your shit out of luck, but funny enough me liking a certain villain lead me NOT calling the sons and daughters of David colonizer

Okay a lot of other things, but Jesus fucking Christ why do I have more empathy than people who entire personality is based off superhero comics and kids cartoons?

But seriously how the fuck I realize I had better moral compass at 13? Keep in mind I just got away from the bitch [stepmom] and still coping with my autism and adhd I was diagnosed with at 11.

Oh shit gen-z you are totally unique nobody has ever had to deal with this before since before the dawn of recorded history, what a brand new burden you carry.

Dunces that think they're the first generation to ever care about the environment are also totally a new thing and we've never had any kind of concern for the environment before, thank you gen-z for showing the rest of us the light.

How it was hammer down our throats? Did I mention that insulating time traveling cartoon movie of MLK where they stated his Martydom was NEEDED to change the world?

Saw people saying that about george floyd too, sad honestly.

But people wondering why zoomer college kids are so unhinged….okay story good Steven universe fans. I just wanted to show how long this mess was

There's a reason I've let my brother know to never let his kids watch that show, nothing to do with the show and everything to do with not wanting them to look online and encounter the cesspit that is in the fandom

But since you know I been in the asylum that’s is tumblr…um not surprising. For some goddamn reasons, late boomers and gen x (not all but you know) decided to like social media and tv will raised their kids And given how over a decade misandrists and racist af non whites was go unchecked….

late gen-x early millennial is closer, zucc is a millennial, dorsey and myspace tom are gen-x,but in our defense we in gen-x were so chill we'd thought that all that would just keep on going and folks would be chill online with each other, not zucc he wanted to get laid but the other two ya.

I think a lot of people forget that my generation grew up when people with untreated mental illness, unresolved parental issues, and it was socially acceptable to treat white people and men the same way the Nazis viewed the Jews because oppressed vs the oppressors. You end up with this

they're getting better ant the mental illness thing, we've gone over that before so not going much further into it, still say it's a miracle my ADHD and Dyslexia were diagnosed as a kid, still mostly abnormal then, but you can thank Gen-X for pushing to bust the stigma around mental illness and treatments and stuff, even if it did land us inside the "prozac nation"

We and some before us suffered so y'all could suffer less

A lot of people don’t realize the crazy sjw/tumblr crowd PREYED kids. So when you have mentally stunted people who think like Star Wars (oh let leave out the character we talked about in the DMs. They are a landmine) preferring the galactic emperor/first order over the rebellion/resistance means your a Nazi apologist

That's all not new, just worse than it used to be is all.

But seriously how the fuck I realize I had better moral compass at 13? Keep in mind I just got away from the bitch [stepmom] and still coping with my autism and adhd I was diagnosed with at 11.

You got lucky I'd say.

[intertexts-moving]

Hellooo man I'm back for more persona hihi

(Btw your blog doesn't show on anything for me, not feed, not activities) so I basically visit it a lot in search hihi

Anyway, got any updated theories or new character insights?

How are you feeling about Kasumi and Maruki(probably my Halloween costume)

How's akechi been treating you

hiiiii kass!!!!!! ohh my godd u were right futaba's palace is so fun... ive been meaning to dm u & shriek about it for like Days now unfortunately work + classes have been a bitch lately hhjsdkfd!!!

anyway i DO. i DO. i think my Biggest theory at this point is that igor + the velvet room are doing the classic "mentor who the protag assumes is good but is the twist big bad guy at the end who has to be defeated through the power he himself taught him" thing. that's my big conjecture i think at this point it would be wild to assume that the velvet room is just a skinned game mechanic with no plot relevance. if it is ill be mildly distressed.

kasumi i LOVE kasumi. shes so cute im obsessed with her. and also mildly concerned because i also thought akechi was a nice chill guy who didn't raise any red flags. and well ummm.

SAME GOES FOR MARUKI, ACTUALLY. i instinctively distrust him because i also distrust any given school therapist but like... he seems nice. he also makes me pause & hesitate a sec with all the shit about fixing someone's heart, being able to physically interface with that mental/emotional aspect. maybe he's just a chill guy with some interesting research!!!!! nevertheless!!! he's also giving me vaguely similar to akechi 'nice unassuming guy who sometimes has the feel that he Knows Too Much. although it would be insane if there was Another person who knew about the metaverse at shujin.

+AKECHI.... GOD. i cant stop thinking about the handful of conversations w/ the siu director about how Someone is doing really good about the phantom thieves. he has to be doing something else other than being a teen celebrity-- has to be doing something genuinely useful if he's still there. HATE that he's friends with sae. wondering how that's going to pan out re: the interrogation. also nevertheless even if he was just a kid celebrity id feel soo bad for him he 100% has license to kill. imagine being seventeen (eighteen? he's a year above akira, no?) & being famous & also asked genuinely intellectual and thoughtful questions about current events on live tv that u have to answer in a pleasing manner. + also HOW DOES HE KNOW. HOW. there's no fucking WAY that some gay little teenager just. FIGURED IT OUT on his own before anyone else. i know he knows. also oh my fucking god. aquarium date. sorry aquarium normal hanging out with the boys. can't get over the all his suspicious ass behavior. hate that im obsessed with him because i know like. Everyone is obsessed with him unfortunately he's such a compelling character.

[lemonriice]

for being such a dismissive little bitch i know it's p much just coz my dad grew up as the eldest son in a very machofeudal household. like the more stories i hear about his father the more i get it. but though he may not even realize , he's literally the typical parent that was like "ack [mental illness symtoms] isn't anything to worry about , i also experience that all the time!" <- clueless (my mom was like that too but was way more receptive to me going hey mom thats literally depression and adhd)

but though he may speak against it & he may not realize it, he's actually quite good with dealing with all the nd traits of his kids. maybe from experience, idk. he's the one who insisted my older brother be transferred to regular schooling, bc he quickly realized the monstessori style center he was in did not provide enough structure and routine for his hard adhd. he was the one who would tell me things like "dont want to get up to throw trash? always have a trashcan in arms reach." "always have a snack at your desk so you stop starving." "put your hamper right in your doorway since you shed all your clothes there." way way before i was even diagnosed with adhd. to him they were not 'adhd hacks', they were just reasonable courses of action. usually bc he was scolding me for leaving trash and clothes everywhere but hey these are still tips i bring with me to this day. i think about him every time i move the room's trashcan to my current location. like im thankful that though he was raised a certain way, he was still reasonable enough to be a reasonable father.

anyway i wonder how much like.. happier and well adjusted everyone would be if there were even a small % more of mental health awareness and destigmatization bc. imagine if adjusting for everyone's individual quirks and behaviors was that.. simple? he didnt see the mental illness bc tbh he at the time didnt really think much of it. he just saw the way we were and knew how to help. i think that's interesting

1.

What was little known of his character, he might have shared with the homosexual to be shared with the rot that used him good, but maybe not known by anyone decent, those he would likely not want to know... He has gone into people's homes. That was his history when first I met him. I'd not known and he concealed so much from me that sorta trickled out later as I was having his babies. He was always a contradiction and would present as decent, but there was always some evidence of something else that I could sorta see. Now hindsight as he has revealed his lowest low life character I am revisiting what God tried to show me and I accepted and minimized. The lowliness that has been put on public display and personified as he is used by the rot who's life is trying people to see if they can bring about some destruction using them. It could not use me and so it had to try a different scheme, use the weak around me. And see if he knows better, or is a snake. It's interesting when you see Satan up close and see what Satan does. I was keenly aware that this over 50 fencer stalker thief was so disgusting that it would constantly and as a matter of identity, try and put people around it in precarious situations, even though what it has "taught" produced so many precarious situations for those it taught well, still Satan is as does... so when I say that I did not have a sandwich with it outside of what was required for work, this is true. And I mean almost 8 years of being in the presence of low and not even a 5 minute personal call. But this used toilet had revealed to me just a bit of the stories of him forcing his way into peoples homes to steal their belongings. This too just like the uncleanliness, shocked the hell out of me. I remember thinking what the hell is wrong with him... It was alarming and I had to ask him if he was okay. He swore that he'd just been stupid and it was his age that he'd been wreckless. I told him don't ever do things like that. I remember going to court with him with a little baby boy for a more trivial but again indicative of character situation. He swore that he was just being stupid and nothing like that would happen anymore. It was trivial, but what I reproduced would not be bothered with such, so again, it is who he is and what he is made of. Another cowardly indication. At one point he told me of something he did and thought someone was after him. So when those guys bitched him in front of me and I was livid and told them to get the hell outta there and backed them down while he stuttered, cowered and almost apologized... I found out they were bitching him because he'd tried to get the advantage on that white kid and now he had his two black friends to have him answer, he was a huge coward then. It is all innate cowardice, low life traits that are being revealed as the fiber his intrinsic character. When that situation was over and I'd saved him from them attacking him. They were like rabbit dogs, he swore after that was not a coward and that would never happen again. I was always gentle with him so I was pissed and let him know, but it was mainly me asking what he'd done. Over the years other situations arose where he showed cowardice in extreme and I worried. It was strange to me because I was not raised around cowardice and so it was not in me. But I was not raised to be slimy either. He would choke, almost couldn't breath and damn near wanted to cry in certain situations and I noticed. It was never warranted so it was strange. I had noticed the lack of dignity. Not knowing you should be embarrassed or have a tinge of pride in a healthy dose was missing from his core. Extreme nastiness was as normal as anything for him and I thought maybe mental illness... But I accepted. I accepted so much because I thought goodness was there. An impossibility to see what I am seeing and now connecting back the origins of which this stems. Because I don't know anyone and I definitely haven't produced anyone who could do these low life acts...

[fleshcarverfugitive]

(Oh) Gods

Gods. What a fun subject in the Forgotten Realms!

Especially for Drow.

Who doesn't love dedicating their life to a capricious and objectively evil spider queen? Not Amalica, that's for sure.

Catch her views on the Spider Bitch and where it might take her below.

TLDR if you don't wanna listen to me yap: lolth's daughter is right there, but so is the dead guy, so she could go either way tbh. or both ways. both is good. unless there's divine beef between them :X

Re: Lolth

It would be no secret to anyone who spends .2 seconds around Amalica that she doing her best to remove herself from Lolth's doctrine. She hasn't gotten her government mandated photo of Drizzt Do'urden in the post yet, but it's coming, I promise lmfao.

Raised in a Lolth-Sworn house, and then being taught at the Drow religious school of Arach-Tinilith shortly after the Silence of Lolth, the doctrine was impressed upon her from the day she was born. She was to serve Lolth dutifully - become a priestess, a matron mother -- something to make her worthy to the Spider Queen.

Of course, that was a horrible plan, in her mind - leading her to defect from her Blooding.

While Lolth still has her teachings implanted in Amalica's head, she actively tries to fight against them, though it can be difficult when a situation presents itself where leaning into that cruelty and intimidation seems to be the best option.

So Where Will She Go?

The obvious answer to me personally is Eilistraee.

The Dark Maiden seems to embody everything she'd like to be: free, mingling with other cultures, learning and growing on the surface. Chaotic Good. It's a tantalizing prospect.

She likely knows about Eilistraee - she bears the sword Phalar Aluve with her name on it, after all. She'd likely heard about her in the Underdark, though only as Lolth's traitorous daughter with "mentally ill" followers ( not even kidding :X ). It's just a matter of getting that push to actually commit herself to a new goddess.

There's also the fact of Jergal being. Right. There. Yeah, Withers, don't think I don't know your little secret. :V

Currently, she wears the Amulet of Lost Voices she went back and dug out of his sarcophagus ( i was too scared of the traps to dig Withers out when i first started okay-- ), and has a strange trust in him.

I think she'd find some comfort in the finality / nature of fate that he tends to go on about, and end up at least poking her head in his direction occasionally. So long as Eilistraee doesn't have some secret beef with Jergal that I can't find lmfao.

[ask-sakky-bear]

I think i get where this person is coming from, but i have a few disagreements.

Namely, ADHD is not just "two things". The inability to concentrate and sit still for long periods of time are th most easily identifiable, sure, but that is not what ADHD IS. At it's core, ADHD is an executive function disorder. As in, your frontal lobe doesn't work - y'know, th part of your brain that allows you to keep track of time, make decisions, transition from task to task, multitask, control your fucking impulses; it controls your working memory, EMOTIONAL REGULATION.

These are all things i have sincerely struggled with as a kid and were constantly brushed off as me being lazy and unmotivated. I barely passed college, at th cost of worsening my mental health, with absolutely no help because i didn't think i was "ADHD enough" and told i was just "goofing off". It really was not until i got on platforms like tiktok, where other people, people who had legitimate ADHD diagnosis, who had been through therapy sessions and learned what half of these symptoms actually looked like and how they presented across different people, that i actually started to take that shit seriously.

There was an immense relief to know that my struggles were not because of some imperfection or moral failing. My brain doesn't fucking work in a way that allows me to function at whatever bullshit level of satisfaction society calls "success". There are actual, real fucking issues i have to deal with in my life, not just having trouble concentrating or sitting still.

And there is nothing wrong with someone realizing that and being attached to a label, especially when they struggled with self-worth for years because they went undiagnosed in a world were there is only one "correct" way of being.

Yes, i understand that "everyone has a mental disorder these days", yes kids are chronically online and it's annoying, but they are desparately searching for any sense of belonging in a world that ignores their existence at best and actively causes them mental/physical harm at worst when it comes to them showing any deviation from "normal". This is a world they are watching rapidly run itself into th ground, that does not care about them, and one where they are becoming increasingly isolated due to fear and being so monitered by their parents that they can only connect with each other online. Not to even mention the effect that the parenting styles of th 1900s have had both in socializing as a whole and the way children are raised as humans (Surprise: Boomers, Gen X, and by extension Millenials, have/had no idea how to raise emotionally functional humans; sure, millenials are trying to fix that issue by emphasizing therapy and mental health, but a lot of them fall back on th parenting styles they were raised with, too, and that parenting style was to teach your kid how to shut th fuck up and do what you told them to, not how to be a functional adult.) So of course they're going to start claiming they have all these mental illnesses/behavioral disorders that they have anything in common with, and they're going to make that their identity, because how th fuck ELSE are they going to be able to interact with each other and form their own personality????

There is literally nothing wrong with kids wanting to belong to something. They aren't trying to be "special". Yeah, they're going about it in th unhealthiest way possible, but adults bitching about these kids being out of touch and a nuisance isn't going to help either. You don't get to just bring human beings into a world that is actively on fire, teach them absolutely nothing except how to be quiet and do what their told, ignore their emotional and physical needs, show them repeatedly that society does not give a shit about them amd that everything is constantly their fault because they're ingrateful, and then have th audacity to get mad when they try to figure out who they are by forming connections (social, or parasocial otherwise) in a way you find irritating or annoying.

Stop blaming kids for not having the emotional intelligence you refused to teach them. Step the fuck up and start teaching these kids shit instead of acting like they're th problem.
