#WE NEED MORE FREAKS

hey so like.... how does one start making content like this, especially on an anti-nsfw site like tumblr? how do you minimize nuking? how do you tag your content and make sure only the right people find it? i have light experience writing smut and i think i could do something with it but im scared lol

it sounds stupid as hell, but you literally start with just posting. you gotta build up a backlog first. having a pinned post helps so that you can tag it with common post tags, but perhaps most important is a tag that denotes your original work so that people can sort through your catalogue specifically. what to tag and how specific to get is a matter of personal preference but one thing I like to do is to add notes about who wrote it or where the prompt was from to further delineate my own stuff from others' works (my writing, not mine, anon writing, asks, etc.)

you can attract attention by INTERACTING. this is very important. find blogs you enjoy with similar content to yours and reblog their shit to the blog you want attention on. either they will interact back, or people looking through the notes to find the blogs that reblog similar stuff will see your interaction and go to your blog as well. This is another place where tagging comes in handy - if you tag for specific kinks on that post, then people know they can seek out that specific stuff on your blog, which can be a huge point of appeal: not only does it mean you keep all your kink stuff organized, but it also indicates your interest for it in the first place.

no matter what you post or where you post it, there's always the possibility that the ""wrong people"" will find it. i've had more than a couple of comments on my stuff along the lines of something is wrong with you, you need help, you should be put in jail, etc (on the old nuked version, so I can't give you any specific examples, and also i usually deleted them) but the key is to remember that if they don't like it, then it's not your responsibility to make them like it. write for the audience you WANT, not the audience you're AFRAID OF.

minimize nuking by posting or reblogging minimal nsfw image items. images are more often against tumblr's TOS so they get flagged more often and more easily, and written erotica is TECHNICALLY within the boundaries (depending on the content, of course, but tagging and adding warnings to your blog should keep you mostly in the clear). make frequent backups. they can't kill all of us no matter how hard they try

Steve taking Dustin to see his favorite metal band in concert. They manage to get spots right up on the barrier, and the lead singer of Corroded Coffin keeps getting distracted by Steve’s pretty face. Dustin has a vice grip on Steve’s arm, screaming and excited that Eddie fucking Munson keeps standing right in front of them. Steve barely notices what will be a bruise tomorrow from Dustin’s fingers, because the guy keeps singing right at Steve, looking right into his eyes.

When the set ends, but before one of the stage managers hunts them down to bring them back stage—Steve turns to Dustin, puts his hands on his shoulders, and says, “I’m going to marry your favorite rockstar.”

Dustin, mirroring Steve and clapping his hands onto Steve’s shoulders, replies with equal gravity, “I will literally make sure gay marriage becomes legal, just so you can marry Eddie Munson in every way possible.”

what is the theory that ivan manipulated the event where till and mizi met the wagyein?

It's not a theory, actually! It's confirmed that Ivan orchestrated the whole event. The true reason as to why however is still unknown. The information provides more context to this scene, though:

During the earlier times of ALNST the most rational explanation for this scene was that Till ran after a flower crown (presumably Mizi's) and Ivan followed him in out of curiosity. Now we know that Ivan was conveniently just standing there because he was waiting.

Side note, I find it heartbreaking (and maybe a little funny, sorry) that Till most likely didn't notice Ivan in this scene. That's just like him, isn't it. Always too busy running after Mizi while Ivan trails behind, an ever-present shadow.

I'm not sure how Ivan manipulated the circumstances for both of them to end up there, but it is confirmed that everything was intentional. What strikes me most is how they describe this particular scene:

I can't copy down what they said word-for-word (Patreon info), but they described Ivan watching "creepily" as Till and Mizi are faced with danger. We know that Ivan was familiar with the Cerberus wagyein beforehand, enough to touch its teeth and even to rest himself inside its maw. To Ivan, the wagyein is not dangerous, but to Till and Mizi, it could be. Ivan prepared the wagyein, led them there, and watched "creepily" from afar as Till fell on his knees, seemingly injured.

The closest I can get to making sense of Ivan's "scheme" is that he wanted to see how other children would react in a dangerous situation. Ivan's always been an observer, after all, and he's learned to survive by copying the more "normal" behaviors of his peers. This situation occured when Ivan was still young and had not yet developed his more charming mask, so perhaps he staged this encounter to study a situational response, to learn and mimic the emotion of fear. And what better subjects for the experiment than two of the most expressive and reactive humans of their batch? It helps that he was already fixated on Till beforehand, too. I think Ivan became irreversibly obssessed after this incident, especially since it's framed as a turning point in Ivan's life, comparing Till to the stars.

This is just my attempt at an interpretation, though. It could very well be for another reason. He most likely chose Till and Mizi specifically for personal reasons, not just for reaction. I'm still not sure on the purpose behind the whole thing.

The team wanted to capture Ivan's "dark emotions" through the shot of his stalking, which could relate to his more sinister intentions. His gaze can be read in a few different ways, though. Curiosity, interest, fear, etc. Maybe that's why they decided to redraw the shot in ROUND 6.

I think this better sells the feeling they were trying to convey.

one thing (of many) i love about earthspark bumblebee is that he is actually good at kicking ass—we see just how good he is at it in the beginning of home pt one, and we get glimpses of it in other fights—but they manage to preserve stakes and his sense of being an underdog because the fights he chooses to take on are consistently absolutely insane. like fighting grimlock when he’s in a rage and your arm is broken? not gonna go well, bee. trying to solo a mind controlled optimus prime with your bare hands after being imprisoned by ghost? also not gonna go well. it’s such a fun way to let him be skilled while preserving tension. like of course the tiny autobot scout the size of optimus’ shin is not going to be able to FISTFIGHT HIM successfully, but that will not stop him from trying!
