[inutaffy]

im watching arrow ans this show is making me so emotional😭

[raccoon-in-the-danger-room]

getting pissed about the love triangle again, so here are my ramblings

I hate it cause everyone's characterization gets fucked over implicitly because each of them turn into the worst versions of themselves

Jean is labeled as the slut. A dull and one-dimensional plot device to Logan's angst, an apathetic cheater to Scott's pain

Scott is labeled as the loser. A butt of the joke to Logan's "victory" (I hate even saying it cause Jean isn't a prize but thats how writers hype it up), a guy who's pathetic enough to still be there whenever Jean wants him again

Logan is labeled as the homewrecker. A man Jean "can fix" because of her psychic abilities, an absolute asshole in Scott's story

Everything about the love triangle infuriates me cause they're all such amazing characters for one thing, not to mention their relationships with one another

Like I can't stress enough how much I LOVE Jean and Scott's love. In most narratives, they were high school sweethearts. They were the first students and a part of the first team. They fell hopelessly and deeply in love with each other because how couldn't they!

They were kids tormented by how freakish they were, and each one of them held onto the other to become their anchor. Echoing sentiments like "no, you're not a freak, you're just YOU and there's nothing wrong with that."

Also, it's so cute in the very original run of xmen Scott didn't ask out Jean for AGES and ppl bullied the absolute fuck outta him for it. Cause Scott's whole thing was that he never thought he was good enough for her. But Jean waited for him. And idk what to say other than that Imma real sucker for friends to lovers and the power of being an absolute simp for your girl

As for their friendships with Logan -- it makes me so sad that it's soooooooooo overshadowed or even nonexistent cause of the love triangle

Cause Jean being there for Logan when he's dealing with his memory loss IS really sweet. If romance is taken out of the equation, I think it's such a powerful testament to their platonic love for each other. Logan allowing Jean into his mind and knowing she won't think less of him is incredibly vulnerable on his part. Jean persisting to help him because she cares about him and emphasizing he IS more man than animal is so deeply kind of her

But they shouldn't be in romantic love with each other because of this. It creates an INSANE "I love my therapist -- I mean girlfriend -- I mean Scott's girlfriend" vibe. Just...... gross dude.

As for Scott and Logan's friendship, they're so funny dude. Just a slapstick good cop, bad cop comedy duo. Eagle scout uncle that gives you genuinely good life advice and that weird uncle who smokes cigs, rides a bike, and tells you how to punch properly so you don't break your hand

They just have SO MUCH POTENTIAL to be good friends and it makes me genuinely sad that all three of them are forced into a love triangle. They're all such interesting ppl that are unique opposing or foil characters to each other

They all deserve better than to be the slut, the homewrecker, and the loser

[snakeredbirdbatkatana]

Soooooooooo I'm gonna rant just a bit.

I love Dick Grayson he is the most badass of birds, the OG he is fucking Nightwing.

Now I love happy family ok I do but we need perspective here people if you are gonna have Dick pick sides or put other people in front I need you to read a comic cause this is what people seem to think about Dick and it's driving me batshit. (Pun Intended)

That Dick would choose Jason, Stephanie, and Cass, over Tim and Damian.

Loud very Loud Deafning Buzzer noise.

That is incorrect.

Do not pass Go! Do not collect two hundred!

If Dick decided it was Fuck the Bats O'Clock he is not taking Stephanie and poor little Jason and leaving Tim or Damain out to dry. He would never choose Cass over Tim. Just like Tim would never take Cass over Dick.

If you want to have Dick leave the bats or some other shit he decides to take a vacation he would not refuse to tell Damian and instead tell Stephanie Brown. What no what where did this come from.

He would not ignore Tim's phone call but always answer Jason's.

He would answer Tim or Damain no matter how annoying those two are.

He would not tell Tim to be nice to Jason cause he's a sad wet cat.

He would not rather hang out with Stephanie Brown over Damian.

He would not get in TimSteph's drama and than berate Tim.

It's like we forgot the plot of the movie.

You want to have Dick be this perfect big brother figure that ok I love that but don't be having him pick other people over his people.

Tim is Dick Grayson's little Brother Tim loves Dick he is Nightwing's number one fan.

Number 2 is Damain Wayne.

Damian is Dick's Brother sometimes even practically his kid.

Just like Bruce is not picking Jason over Dick.

Dick is the winner for everything everyone would not kick him off the island but he would Kick everyone off the island for Tim and Damian.

So in conclusion Dick loves Tim and Damian he also loves Jason but if Jason is gonna attempt to kill Damian or Tim. Well he killed a man who used to call himself the Red Hood once.

He also likes Stephanie Brown but she's not his bestie they aren't leaving Damian and Tim so they can go hang out or whatever.

If you want to write that go for it but don't you dare say that's cannon. Dick Grayson has put up with way to much bullshit caused by those two for this slander.

I love Jason he's one of my favs I also love Stephanie I am absolutely in love with Cass they are all awesome but they aren't the Dick Grayson Fan club founders.

League of Villain Headcanon - Being Drunk

Shigaraki:

When he gets drunk he pretty much goes completely nonverbal, not bothering to use his words anymore and instead communicating through grumbles and grunts. He also gets really clingy when drunk, with the more drunk he gets the more willing he is to cling to absolutely anyone who gets close to him. This makes it a requirement for him to wear his gloves when he's drinking, otherwise someone may end up a pile of dust on the ground.

Spinner:

He gets pretty chatty while drunk, an insane amount actually. He'll talk about practically anything; his past, his favorite video games, his parents, his thoughts Pokémon strength and weakness, absolutely anything becomes on the table and it's imposable to shut him up. The more drunk he gets, the more incoherent his words become until he just passes out.

Dabi:

He starts having a go at the karaoke machine and dancing like a man who's got nothin' to lose. He's actually really good at singing despite being drunk, I know typically when someone's drunk their singing gets worse but in Dabi's case, he actually just keeps his skill level, just less impulse control. He's an incredibly well coronated drunk, never once falls during his dance routine unless he intended to.

Mr. Compress:

He becomes a lot flirtier than he normally would be, with him losing the impulse control to not flirt with anyone he finds attractive. Interesting enough though, if he's in a monogamous relationship he'll only flirt with his partner. Even if he's around someone he was attracted to before he started dating this other person, he'll still only flirt with his SO. Basically, when he's in a committed relationship his ability to find others attractive kinda just vanishes except for his partner. Also, his ability to flirt is a lot less sophisticated than it normally would be. Not in a, "he's being creepy" way, more so in a, "he won't stop telling you how pretty/cute/hot you are". His ability to use big, sophisticated, and well put together words/sentences to flirt has disappeared for the time being, he'll regain them when sober.

Kurogiri:

He can't really get drunk. Now hear me out on this one! A personal headcanon of mine is that Kurogiri was not only given Warp Gate as a quirk, but also a bunch of smaller less noticeable quirks. One grants him a regenerative ability that makes it so injuries that would normally take a day to heal will instead heal in a few hours, another gives him a perfect internal clock, and (the one important for the headcanon here) one that gives him heighten poison resistance. Since alcohol is technically a poison, a side effect of this quirk is that he can now chug straight vodka and remain sober. This also leads to him having a high spice tolerance and caffeine not doing anything for him, with both caffeine and capsaicin are poisons. This ultimately led to the headcanon that in the MHA Panera's Charged Lemonade, instead of being an affront to God and a sin against the FDA, is instead marketed specifically for those with quirks around poison resentence so that they can use caffeine to get through their day. So that's how Kurogiri is able to handle the League and all their stillness, with the lawsuit making lemonade.

Twice:

He's a sad drunk, like, a really sad drunk. He just starts sobbing and questioning all of his life decisions. He won't stop crying until he passes out. He needs to down soooooooooo much water afterwards to regain all the hydration he lost through his tears. This has kinda lead to him being banned from getting drunk anywhere away from the League, as they're concerned that if this 30-year-old man starts sobbing uncontrollably in public that'll draw to much attention and someone might recognize him and get the pros called on him. He doesn't really have an issue with this, after all he lives with the League now so he can basically just stay home and drink with family instead of going out to some bar with a bunch of strangers who probably couldn't give less of fuck about him.

Toga:

Currently is not allowed to drink, has she is 16. When she becomes 18, she'll be allowed to drink (that's the legal age for drinking in Japan, for my fellow Americans who forget that other countries decided that if you're old enough to sign a contract you're old enough to drink). When she is able to get drunk, all of her impulse control goes out the fucking window. Not only does this mean that she's more likely to stab people, it also means that she's willing to jump out a window to see if she can fly. After her first time being drunk lead to her being put out of commission for a week and all of the League (except Kurogiri, he's very good at dodging) having new knife scars, it is now a requirement for someone who's sober to be responsible for her when she's drunk. Luckily Kurogiri fits into this role perfectly, so he's now the one to be responsible to make sure she doesn't hurt herself or others when drunk.

OLD MAN YAOI BRACKET ROUND 1

Propaganda:

Ilya Tchaiko/Seichirou Agawa:

DEAR GOD BRO. you don't actually learn about the two of them until later in the manga but tchaiko is always talking about his record player that "an old friend" gave him and how much he loves music. in volume three we get some of their backstory and we find out it was seichirou that gave him the record player!!! we see them go on a few record buying dates and dancing together and it is truly unbearably sweet. i believe they are somewhere between 60 and 70? they met in college and have been together for 30 years, but seichirou got married and had a kid before then. in present day though seichirou is sick in the hospital. tchaiko visits him everyday though he makes sure he only visits when seichirou's son won't be there. this means he gets less time to spend with him :( finally, on the day of the main lesbian couple's wedding, tchaiko gets a text from seichirou's son saying he's in critical condition. tchaiko hesitates to go because he's scared but a mutual friend of theirs pushes him to go. when he gets there we get a sort of dream like visual where seichiro floats out of bed to hold tchaiko, looking how he did before he got sick, and they tell each other they loved spending their lives together. and then seichirou dies. it's soooooooooo sad that shit makes me cry every fucking time bro i cried getting the pictures but it's also soooooooo sweet love is so beautiful. AYUGH.

The manga has alot of different characters going through different things in their life, but all of these are different LGBTQ+ issues. These two are husbands who have spent most of their life together, and now have to accept that death will do them part. They often exchange classical music reccomandations that Tchaiko will play while Seichirou is in hospital and vice versa. Seichirou also has a son from a previous marriage so the manga touches on their relationship aswell. And (spoiler warning) but Seichirou dies from old age at the end of the manga and the scene is, while sad, also very heartwarming, as his son kind of realises the relationship the two of them have and tells him that "his favourite person is here"

Heavy/Medic:

They are referred to as boyfriends in an achievement (Beaux and Arrows) and on the official page for the End of the Line sfm it's described as "an action packed cinematic romp full of comedy action, romance action*, drama action, and actioney-type action.", there are no women in the sfm.

pretty sure they're both over 50 judging by some lines in the comic and their appearances (when the medic is asking satan to be put back on earth he says "another 50 years", implying he already lived for 50 years before he died). these two are typically seen together in canon as an unstoppable duo, and they are the KINGS of romanticizing surgery.

[noweakergirl]

Hi bestie, it's me again 🤭💖. I just finished ceremonials! HER VOICE OMG and all the water/ocean references (i love these so much). My favorites are shake it out, what the water gave me, breaking down, no light no light, all this and heaven too and heartlines. The drums in heartlines!!! WOW. Also some songs reminded me of taylor - never let me go (the drowning imagery made me think of clean even though they are kind of the opposite), Spectrum was like the opposite of red and the lyric "I never knew daylight could be so violent" from no light, no light (the way taylor too went from Daylight -> Midnights)

Also I FINISHED HBHBHB IN DECEMBER TOO!!!!!! JAHDJSSKAKA It's probably my favorite Florence album (But also I love LOVE dance fever too much). I was waiting to finish up Ceremonials before sending you an ask about it 🤭. My favorites -> what kind of man, ship to wreck, third eye, hbhbh, st. Jude (i had heard this and hbhbhb before when you had recommended it and I still love them just as much so they have to be in my favorites), delilah, QUEEN OF PEACE. The way she sings in queen of peace OMG!! This song sounds like a storm almost. Various storms & saints and what kind of man reminded me of a book I had read last year (far from the madding crowd). I love love LOVE how hbhbhb (song) builds up and the way she sings "what are we gonna do" WOW.

3 albums DONE and I love all of them aaahhh 💖💖

This makes me soooo warm! 💖🥺

HBHBHB is truly a masterpiece and I totally get why it has become your number one album of hers. Also: THE TASTE for your song choices 👌 What kind of man is so cathartic! It is in my "self-exorcist" playlist, along with Shake it out, Florida, and some other songs. I feel like jumping around, throwing things, and running on a field when I listen to it. Queen of peace is soooooooooo good. It feels so grandiose and spacey(?). I love how loud and bright it is, it's like you can't just listen to it, but you also have to feel it with your whole body. What you say about storm is so on point, its sounds are all around you like a wind and heavy rain. Also, one of my absolute faves on that album is Long & Lost, it literally sounds like a fog to me? I can't explain, but everytime I listen to it, I see a gloomy November day, gray skies, mist all around me... (and it's also part of my Wuthering heights playlist hehe). The lyrics of Mother are one of my faves too 🥺 Oh, and bestie, there is one cool song called Pure feeling, I don't think it's on the standard edition of the album (not sure), but I highly recommend checking it out!

CEREMONIALS!!!! Florence is indeed the queen of water/ocean references and I am soooo happy you caught on them! I am OBSESSED with What the water gave me. Also, HOLY what you said about Clean/Never let me go and Spectrum/Daylight to Midnights pipeline.......... we love TayFlo in this house 💖 Btw, I often find myself singing Only if for a night 🥺 it's such a sweet and kinda sad song.

Bestie, I am SO GLAD you love Florence. It makes my heart so warm!!! She is force of the nature, something about her melodies makes you want to dance and jump and FEEL everything. Also, she is lyrical queen too, she has so many good lyrics, man.

Thank you for fangirling with me, and please pleaseeee continue to do so when you listen to the other two albums <3

[5-7-9]

Okay I’m pissed. Read WFA’s We Are Robin’s chapter. Sure, it gets the themes right, whatever. There isn’t a lot of good to say about getting the surface level topics correct, it’s just accurate.

What I’m mad about is Troy. The casual dismissal of Troy’s death as “wishing to not let untrained kids play vigilantes” or whatever.

That’s not what Troy’s death represents at all. Troy’s tragedy was so much more than that.

I actually was taken a little by how most of Duke’s friends reacted after, Riko Dre and Izzy, they kept going despite how scary that was, that fascinated me a lot. I thought more of them would react like Dax did, lose just a tiny bit of hope, especially Riko who also admired a batfam adjacent symbol like Dax did. Troy was the loss along the way, but they knew long ago it was a risk since they started their journey. Might be because the story was so short and had to move quickly anyways, but it still shows that Troy’s death was part of their motivator, not their obstacle. Their path is to save lives, including their own.

YES IT WAS YOUR FAULT! It absolutely was his fault!!! Forget about sugarcoating it!!!!!!!!! Stop making Duke sugarcoat the batfam’s guilt for no reason either, it’s just weird. Ewwwwww *shudders* 😰 Just let it be man!!!!

i just find this pitiful expression of Troy’s death a bit annoying. Just a little bit.

“Them” “I” not “We” ?????????? Ughhhhhhhhh how could you have Duke refer to We Are Robin through “them” pronouns instead of “we” pronouns UGHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Shug-R and Oracle…. I mean that was the seemingly natural conclusion to a side support, but Shug has shown to get in on the action too, albeit less so. I have no clue if she’s even tech smart, she just uses a computer? If WFA assumes going on a computer means you’re tech smart then idk how to break it to them. It’s fine to mention, i just wonder why it feels like an off note, could’ve easily integrated Shug by having her text them herself, to feel more involved instead of separated. But i digress

Dre smiles too much. It’s weird. I’m creeped out everytime.

Oh man, Riko would’ve soooooooooo hit Damian. Since Izzy wasn’t there to beat him up again.

Half of this story not about Duke, which is fine but i didn’t realize WFA switched over their formatting, they combined 2 chapters into 1 to make it longer i think. Might be a Season 3 only change?

this might the the only time the WFA artist attempts to draw canon accurate Duke ever instead of this 🥺 sad nervous scared face that makes me want to punch his face in, and he looks so funny (i also think the smirks Tim does looked funny too, and out of place but i’m unsure why. I just have no idea why Tim is smirking so much or so strangely, but yeah)

So Duke’s We Are Robin appearance isn’t over? Is this an arc?? So i still have to wait and read more chapters just to see Duke??? Horrendous idea, how dare.

We Are Robin’s canon accurate designs might look cooler if drawn by Starbite 🤔 right now they just look bland for no reason. I mean, their actual outfits had more detail, and Riko is just wearing some rando clothing for no reason

You make a post asking for thoughts on Ojima? YOU RECIEVE!!!

When I started watching Tetro, I didn’t really care for him all that much. I didn’t dislike him, he just wasnt a favorite. But when I started really getting into it, I grew to love him soooooooooo much. His backstory makes me so sad, and the fact that he mightve taken up his talent/enjoys childrens books because of said backstory makes me even sadder. His interactions with the rest of the cast make me super happy, because he shows so much care for everybody. I could go on a whole rant about how much I adore Takeshi, but thats a brief summary

Sorry for answering this late just got distracted and forgot about the asks.

Yea Ojima as well for me was a character that at the very beginning of tetro I also didn’t pay too much attention. Mind you I got into tetro right as day 1 of chapter 1 was coming out so I didn’t have too much info on him. But around day 3 I started getting really interested in him as his whole daydreaming thing was intriguing and I always love characters who are very fucked up psychologically so that’s why I started liking him. I remember for a little while around this time I suspected he had DID, but that didn’t go anywhere (I still think it’s a cool hc). I had very much suspected at this point that Ojima must’ve had a really traumatic childhood as I was already somewhat familiar with dissociative disorders and things on that spectrum so I pieced together very quickly that his daydreaming was a trauma response. You can actually find one of my comments on daydreamer right when it came out of me saying that. And then next week when confession game dropped and when I really started becoming fixated on tetro, yeah as well it was really sad to actually learn what happened to him and I was right. And from then out I was getting even more interested and attached to Ojima so yeah.

Also what you said about thinking he could’ve taken up his talent and enjoys children’s books because of his trauma yea that’s really sad but I definitely think that’s what’s going on. Cuz like in some cases of trauma survivors they can find comfort in childish stuff as some form of age regression to go back to a simpler time, especially before the trauma happened. And then I think to ice fairy where when talking about the books Ojima reads & draws for Hiroaki described them as “toddler books for baby toddlers” and then with the newer knowledge of how young Ojima was when it started happening it’s just so incredibly sad. But at least for Ojima he can find comfort in creating and consuming media meant for very young children to support himself even with what he’s been through.

Man I absolutely love Ojima so much I would absolutely read a whole rant about why you like him he’s that interesting of a character.

IT’S HERE IT’S FINALY HERE AND IM SO SORRY 🫶🏽🫶🏽 I don’t know, it’s like I was in a drought or something. So forgive me and here is your long awaited request.

Forgetting your anniversary with the MHA boys

Request; “I would love to see reactions to forgotten anniversaries”

A/N; Of course, that’s a good idea! Thanks for the request. 💕

Pariring; Bakugo Katsuki, Midoriya Izuku, Kirishima Eijiro, & Kaminari Denki

Contains; comfort, kisses, apologies, big babies

wc; 481

Bakugo Katsuki

You might think he’s angry

Who’re you kidding he is angry

Jaw clenched

Eyebrows furrowed

But he’s more upset than anything

Honestly

He knows you’ve been under a lot of stress lately

Things have been busy with him rising in the ranks

And increased crime

He knows it was an accident

That you didn’t mean to forget

But it still hurts 

And you immediately apologize 

He just brushes it off

He had a dinner planned

Which y’all can still go but the mood is kinda tense and awkward

You literally have to comfort this big baby

He’s all pouty and all shady

Trying to make the whole thing a joke but not really

Bcuz guarantee he meant when he said 

“Can’t believe you’d jus’ forget about the best thing ever”

All under his breath 

You cuddle him after the dinner

And…give him a gift

Of some sort

Midoriya Izuku

🥹

So uhm

He gets a little nerve wracked

Cuz like what now

But I honestly think he takes it better than most

Because he’s so selfless

And like not that he puts his own feelings on the back burner

But right now he’s more concerned about you

Cuz like what happened?

Why did you forget?

He knows you’re normally good with things like this so it’s odd

Maybe too much stress

So honestly you don’t even have time to feel bad

Or say sorry

Cuz he’s already coddling you

And telling you it’s okay

Super understanding about it

Kirishima Eijiro

☹️

He’s really so sad

Like soooooooooo sad

BUT

He’s a manly man

He’s gonna turn thangs around

He knows it wasn’t on purpose

He’s aware of the love you have for him

So 

He makes it extra special

Just for you like always

He cooks

Got you flowers

That cute necklace you’ve been wanting

And most of all

He is on you

ALL NIGHT

He fed you during dinner

Was literally on you during the movie

Pampered you

And he’s not gonna sweat it 

That much

because it doesn’t change the love y’all have for each other

Kaminari Denki

So let’s be honest

He’s prolly shocked himself to death a couple of times earlier

Definitely has a buzz to him

But he still managed to have something planned

He was all sparky and

“Oh yeah my girls gonna love this!”

Then you’re just like “what’s all of this for?”

He’s like

“Wym babygurl”(gosh I hate love him sm I hate the fact that I actually imagined him saying that more tho)

🤨🤨🤨

Then when it clicks to you

You’re apologizing 

He still hasn’t gotten why ur apologizing 

Then you tell on ur self

And he’s like 

Oh(inside)

He’s the least hurt tho

Cuz like there’s always more anniversaries 

But 

He’s gonna be so dramatic about it

Never gonna let it go

And you’re gonna baby him allll night 

@/cafekitsune for the divider

ok i'll bite– why should i read requiem of the rose king?

YES IT WORKED, COME HERE FRIEND :D

ok fair warning: im like 10 chapters away from being done. the ending could be terrible and ruin everything but i doubt it. i know it in my heart, its gonna be great

from what i know from you, i know you like to suffer (same) so this manga is totally for you, but let me give you a list

-the main character is intersex and although the world (fuck you 1400s) is queerphobic, the topic is still handled with respect and depth. it asks interesting questions about gender and identity

-the mc is so emo you dont even know. but not in a cringy way i would say

-toxic gays >:D

-joan of arc is there. as a ghost. pretty cool imo

-the vibes are gothic because of the time period but also the main character himself: he wear black, there are crows, dark forests, etc

-the art is soooooooooo pretty i love it. its so delicate and aggressive when it has to. it has the classic shojo style but when it shines it does really shine

-theres a shit ton of blood and gore (think mcr revenge era kind of gore)

-cool religious imagery and themes/parallels

-it really feels like a journey. not only a political one (cuz historical fiction) but also a personal one. the main character may not get to the right conclusion and it will make you say "nooooooooooooooooo stopppp" but thats the whole point. hes a flawed little man with flawed and sad little thoughts. its really interesting to watch him get what he really wants

-the story really knows how to drag the reader to feel what the characters are feeling. like in the latest chapters i have read i was able to feel so much desperation and panic from the little guys that it made me really sad and i laid on the floor for a bit

-theres always drama and i love it

-theyre not afraid of being really weird sometimes and i love it

-the mc as a child looks like this

-i dont know what else to say without spoilers but i will say that a lot of moments are replaying in my brain like a record

now onto the warnings

-transphobia and dysphoria

-r*pe

-kinda incest

-SA

-implied r*pe

-you may be tempted to watch the anime instead of the manga but the anime tried to put 78 chapters in 24 episodes. the adaptation was sadly doomed from the start

Hot takes "i don't have the strength anymore" edition:

Praise kink? Hell yeah, but daddy kink Chris became a painful cliché. The newcomers to the fic community scanning things and thinking "oh this is what goes then I should write it that way" is totally what's feeding it. Inviting everyone to be more creative rather than recycling what they see in the "top" tab.

The entirety of the skz maknae line are doms. JiLix on the pleasure dom side whereas SeungIn will fuck you up. I said what I said.

You might feel discomfort when you're stretched but no one's crying. No one's dick is that big and no one's vagina is that tight. Realistic depictions of sex by people who had it please.

Bullet points are not stories, and it's definitely not a genre. Neither are one-liner "thoughts".

I completely blame the death of appreciation on Twitter immigrants.

There is a very special place in hell for people who tag their personal posts and asks with fic tags.

Thank you for allowing me to yell this into a void. I feel much better.

people saw that old ass channie's room clip of chan calling himself "daddy" and RAN with it like usain fucking bolt

I'm totally cool with daddy kink stuff, but the daddy chris things have devolved to something so... sad... to the point where i'm this close to treating the warning as a skip like it's that bad! like why are you making y/n such a whiny annoying little bitch ffs let her just call him daddy like a normal person

people want felix to be subby baby boy so bad but if he's like any other gamer man i've met in my life that is far from the case that boy is about some freaky shit

DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THE BULLET POINT "STORIES" OH MY GOD that is not a story! that is a brainstorming session you should make before you write and post the damn thing holy fuck have none of you taken a writing class

and i fully agree that the "guy has enormous monster cock larger than bad dragon could comprehend and reader has the tiniest little vagina known to man" is soooooooooo lameeeeeeee like at least make it a reasonably large penis good god

so glad you felt the freedom to yell into the void, anonnie <3

2024 AO3 Wrapped!

I meant to post this earlier (like last weekend) but then I finally started playing Baldur's Gate 3 and uhhhhh uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh OOPS where did the time go. So before it gets even more egregious (and because I am eyeing my Steam Deck as I write this): here's my 2024 AO3 Wrapped! Already posted on twitter and bluesky, but now with more rambling. Here we go.

Word Count

So: in 2024 I read 64 fics and 546,908 words across 15 fandoms. That's a good 13 fewer fics compared to last year and 400k fewer words somehow, holy shit? I knew I was gravitating towards short fic this year (which tracks with my book reading too) but damn. My attention span really wasn't great. I had some definite dips through the year but my fic reading basically ground to a halt this fall. too stressed, too tired, too sad. December did bring a revival in both reading and general mood/ability to engage with fandom stuff, so an enormous thank you to sylvix week for being such a big part of that. Hopefully things continue to improve in the new year because woof. (also my Marked for Later is soooooooooo loooong lol.)

(continued under the cut.)

Top Fandoms

Surprise surprise. What can I say, no other fandom had that je ne sais quoi that makes me want to seek out fic seriously! Did some dabbling in other fandoms throughout the year, plus a little fic book club with friends that made me finally read some classics like astolat's Transformers But Make It Omelas fic (believe it or not, my first and only astolat, though not my first Naomi Novik), but otherwise I'm still very monofandom. I'm wondering if the Witch Hat Atelier anime later this year will inspire me to finally read all those fics in my MfL... it might! or maybe not! really depends. Like, I fully expected to read more Dungeon Meshi fic this year, but I think the fact that I am still sloooowly reading the manga (according to what my library system has, not scanlations), and have no desire to be spoiled more than I already am (grumble) was a big deterrent. And IWTV, which I LOVE, is already so satisfying that I personally don't need or want to fill in any blanks in a fannish way.

Top Authors

47 individual authors with a few repeats - thank you again mikey desmodus for your service and dedication to putting sylvain into so many situations. 🫡 I DID finally read fic by a few authors whose names I've seen around for years but never tried out, which was fun! And led to reading a bunch of stuff I might not normally read, which is also fun/illuminating.

Top Pairings

I'm still sylvix trash after all these years, water is wet, etc. What can I say, those two have an iron grip on my brain. But I'm pleasantly surprised to see more F/F 3H pairings creeping up in the rankings! Well, "more" is a relative term when you look at the numbers but there's a lot of great stuff out there. Good job None for holding on to the no. 2 spot, and as always I'm delighted to see my Rakugo darlings make an appearance thanks to my Annual SGRS Jess Fic.

Top Characters

Sylvain at 50% (down from 57% lol) - how the mighty have fallen...😔 Kidding aside, this is about what I expected especially given my top ships. It's always kind of fun to see who shows up in the 1s though, outside of 3H; we got Transformers, we got History Boys, we got half-foot adventurers! And below the arbitrary top 20 cut off, there are hockey players, kpop idols, one charming young man capable of being terrible™, a crotchety journalist-turned-vampire, and your average Napoleonic War-era naturalist/physician/spy. Variety! yahoo.

Ratings, Categories, Etc.

I told myself I'd sort out that Multi category this year, which did NOT happen, but oh well. Maybe in 2025. Explicit still reigns supreme, because this is fandom, but it's definitely dropped, and NSFW is down 15% as well (below 50% now!). Make of that what you will. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Tags & Tropes

PWP, Character Study, Established Relationship, Post-Canon? Check. But it was VERY interesting to see Humor break into the top six for the first time, with a not entirely insignificant lead over ye olde standbys Pining and Angst. not sure if this was due to my gravitating towards lighter fic this year (which would definitely make sense considering...how this year has gone) OR because I apparently made an effort to add the Humor tag even if the authors didn't? Probably a bit of both tbh; I definitely wasn't actively seeking out dark content (example: Major Character Death is an extremely mood-dependent tag for me in a normal year and even less appealing recently, and there are a few fics with that tag - by authors I like! - that have been sitting in my MfL for going on two years now). But also, there's a lot of genuinely funny fic out there! I want to keep track of those gems.

Etc: Commenting, Rereading, Reccing, and Bookmarks

I managed to comment on over 50% of fics I read in 2023, and continued doing so in 2024 (despite everything). From 51.9% to 54.69%, hooray. I definitely want to see if I can increase that number this year. Looks like I enjoyed/would rec a comfortable majority of the fic I read too, which is always nice, and got a little less wishy washy on the fic I didn't like (more Nos than Maybes in 2024, while Maybe had a solid lead in 2023). I didn't outright hate anything either. I'm still not much of a rereader, and bookmarks remain low like they generally have since I started tracking my fic (which is probably a combo of being mostly in a five-year-old fandom and well, tracking my fic in a separate spreadsheet). About half of the fic I DID bookmark were for non-3H fandoms too.

Looking Ahead

So that's it! I haven't actually read any new fic in 2025 yet since almost literally all my downtime has been spent playing Baldur's Gate 3 lol. but I am hopeful for this year! At least in terms of my reading (no comment on the rest). Despite my current BG3 fixation I will be EXTREMELY surprised if that translates into my reading any fic - tbh even though I've loved this series for over 20 years (it's one of THE defining video games of my youth, and the new game is fucking incredible), I've never been interested in the transformative fandom side of things. We'll see if that changes this year, but I'm kind of doubtful. Witch Hat is another story, but again, you never know. There's a ton of 3H fic I want to get to soon so I've definitely got enough reading material on that side of things (WIPs! new fic posted during sylvix week! old fic I've been meaning to read for a year now! pairings I'm curious about but have never really checked out!). Let's see where the fandom winds take me I guess. :)

As always, thank you all fic authors past and present! I appreciate you more than you can ever know. xoxo

Getting Married Directly after Emotional Abuse: My personal story

1/06/25 My niece was in juvenile jail and missed my wedding 💔🌹

I had stopped texting my ex Andrew because every time I did text him for answers, he seems to be doing so good but I’m the one suffering!! The breakup hurts like hell even tho I AM THE ONE WHO DID IT 😳😝 So then I would tell him how upset I am and… he’d be like “I’m sorry” but just saying “sorry” wasn’t making me feel any better cuz I wanted answers and he had a different answer every time we talked!! I realized he can only lie to me 🥺💔

Well I tried to move on and met my husband but then Andrew started FaceTiming me but hanging up when it rang 😭😭😭 I was excited he’s calling but very confused and sad… he kept breaking my heart!! I just wanted him to love me like he said he did when we first met. What happened and what changed his mind??? (I understand now it was only manipulation never love) my husband who I JUST started a relationship with, told me I needed to block Andrew’s number or else Andrew will continue his bizarre behavior… I did block him but I cried so hard and I thought my new man would dump me but wow nope. Instead, WE GOT ENGAGED!!!

So during the week before my wedding, my niece reads a post of Facebook out loud in social studies of another student who wants to shoot up the school and her social studies teacher uses that against her, says SHES THE ONE WHO WANTS TO SHOOT UP THE SCHOOL and writes it on a paper but doesn’t even turn the paper in till the NEXT DAY. He let my niece go home and then next day, she got arrested when she gets to school 🥺😢 Worse, the judge sentences her for 10 days!!!! My niece had to miss my wedding 😭😭😭❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹 I cried soooooooooo incredibly hard!!! I begged to reschedule my wedding but you can’t get a refund on a reception hall… ugh. So I had a friend’s daughter take my niece’s place as a bridesmaid but I was sooo sad!!!

I had planned for my niece to spend the night and help do my nails for my wedding 😭 instead after my rehearsal dinner, I went home alone and cried. My husband couldn’t hardly wait to marry me and next morning insisted we go to breakfast together before my hair appointment LOL 😂 and we’re sitting there like it’s a normal day …. Eating pancakes and eggs. No one knew we were getting married that day. Well my whole family was a mess becuase my niece is in jail and missing my wedding . We all took turns crying and there wasn’t enough time to get ready!!! I tried to do my own nails quickly but did a half job. Also tried to do my own makeup but didn’t love it. Suddenly it’s time for the wedding and I never got to take the before photos with the bridal party it’s like there was so much talk of my niece and crying that, idk… we all lost track of time?? I was upset!!! Then the wrong song got played when the bridal party walked down the aisle… it’s like everything was going wrong!!!

was a beautiful wedding but sad. I was sad over Andrew and confused. I knew my husband seemingly was super excited to marry me and would’ve skipped the ceremony all together and eloped if I said yes but I wanted family there 💔💔 accept my niece wasn’t there 😭😭😭🌹 my heart was just so broken all around!!! Even on my honeymoon, I’m an EMOTIONAL MESS!!! I am worried about my niece, confused over Andrew and yet my husband acts like everything is fine and now we’re having a romantic time…. He wants to have sex 10 times a day and i was into it but i was just so emotional and would suddenly cry in spurts and he’d be like “are you crying again???” Uggggh I thought it was gonna be Andrew… I thought I was gonna start a fam with him but reality was he hated me with a passion and could only hurt me but I never got to process all of it yet!!! It all happened so fast. I met my husband only 3 months after I dumped Andrew …. I had no time to grieve truly!!!

the last day of my honeymoon my niece was released was from jail and she got to FaceTime me!! Haha I cried AGAIN!!! Was tears of joy. My niece was glowing but looked like she had been traumatized …. Looked like she had been through hell…. Omg and my poor husband was like “you’re crying again??????” I could tell it bothered him and I didn’t even understand I had been emotionally abused and that’s why I’m SUCH A BASKET CASE!!! Then after the honeymoon now it’s time to be a wife…. I have a guard up and I’m super defensive at everything my husband does or says. I’m terrified he’s cheating on me and yet he’s done nothing wrong. I get the wedding photos back but I don’t feel pretty in them. I think I’m ugly and my niece wasn’t even there 💔😭❤️‍🩹😭 that made the pictures worse!!! My niece was supposed to sing at my wedding….

I couldn’t stop obsessing Andrew in my mind even when I’m with my husband sexually, my brain is thinking of Andrew and the nudes he sent me… was very very bad!!! I felt like the worst wife in the world!!! I kept googling what’s wrong with me and I continued to keep Andrew’s number blocked but I was still sooooooo confused and bothered deep down. I KNEW something was so wrong with me and felt very much broken and disconnected. I couldnt feel attached with my husband at all and felt very isolated still. My mom questions why I’m disconnected but I don’t have any answers yet ❤️‍🩹

I felt that I was doing the right thing getting married so fast to someone else. I felt I had to get away from Andrew at all cost and break the hold he had on me but mentally I’ve been fudged up. Cognitive dissonance is so real!! You’re holding two opinions of someone but the person who you had to block, that’s who they really are!! The person who love bombed you isn’t real 🥺❤️‍🩹 I’m starting to finally understand so many things about the past but it’s been a true journey!!! I’m deep into the healing process and starting to accept the harsh realities of emotional abuse. It’s hard to admit you have toxic traits about yourself and its heartbreaking to know you have trauma too 🌹🌹🌹 I’m thankful for my marriage although I have beat myself up thinking my husband deserves better than me… He’s not responsible for my past. I don’t wanna punish my husband for what other men did before him ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹

[legendheroes]

Heroes, if there is absolutely no other option and Takuya is the ultimate last option, to digimon-sit your partners....

I don't feel like doodling or writing this IC, sorry. At least not... totally IC, because I want to use this to think about Takuya's character and why that might not be soooooooooo bad?

For example, Takuya is the only protagonist who turns into a digimon. Literally turn into a digimon. You can come and argue "but Takato can also turn into a digimon!" and for me, Takato's Dukemon is more like a Mecha Pilot kind of case. Because Takato and Guilmon fuse into one digi-body, and we see the kids inside the mons as if they were piloting a mecha.

But in Takuya's case… he does not have a digimon partner in the traditional sense. The Spirits of Fire are referred to as partners by themselves in ep 23 -- contrary to the popular belief that the Frontier series has no digimon partners. BUT if I remember correctly, the Frontier group later mentions that they were reborn as digimon (in this series) when they talk about the first time they spirit-evolved into a digimon.

So, I think Takuya is able to understand how the digimon feel in a way that none of the other protags might know. So he would be able to understand their feelings a little better and stand up for them, he's like a "bridge" that connects human and digimon into "one". So he doesn't feel like the "worst and last option" to me. I'd think the last resource they could do is just throw EVERY MON at Daisuke because they know Daisuke is good at digimon-sitting (02 ep 24) lol. Or do you want to dump the mons on Rui and Ukkomon and witness the poor sad man of the digibeginning suffer?

Daisuke: Soooooooo... leaving Takki to watch our digimon is a good idea? Even if he's the embodiment of CHAOS?

Yup! Besides you need a break from babysitting everyone right?

Daisuke: Yeah, I think so...

Takuya: Finally someone who makes sense here! I'm not that bad! Where did you all get that I'd be the WORST option for that?!

Takato: Does the Get the Biggest Fire!! incident mean something to you?

Takuya: ...

Takuya: Oh.

Yeah, Takuya... You had done a few things to earn that title.
