[bogos-bint3d]

PUTTING PREV TAGS UP FOR EVERYONE TO SEE BECAUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HSHUUSUAIKWHWHWHSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THISSSSSSSSS!!!!!! THISSSS YOU GET IT!!!!!!

Transcript: This might just be a me thing that I'm imagining but I feel like I notice a lot in fics that Undyne is always just reduced to this obstacle that is just a nuisance to whoever the fic's protagonist is (usually always frisk or the skelebros) that hinders them for a chapter or so and is then immediately just a joke or an afterthought after that. Again this is probably just me but she's never actually treated like a real character with nuance or layers or DEPTH or ANYTHING. She's just papyrus's boss who won't let him in the royal guard because she's just so mean, and wow isn't she so evil for trying to fight this kid wow that's so fucked up. And then that's just it, that is just her entire character. Or things where she's just an easily overcome roadblock for one of the skelebros to prove just how incredibly powerful they really are. She never feels like am actual character, just a plot device :( But idk. Old man yells at cloud

have you read this ( https://archiveofourown.org/works/13310940#main ) fic before? it seems like exactly the kind of soundwave & cassettes dynamic you like!

LISTEN TO ME. GRABS YOU BY YOUR SHOULDERS. LISTEN.

THAT FIC. IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE FICS EVER. I HAVE READ IT SO MANY TIMES ITS INGRAINED IN MY BRAIN PERMANENTLY AND FOREVER.

That fic captivates the dynamic between soundwave and his eldest cassettes that I LOVE so MUCH it’s literally perfect. I cry every time.

URGGHH THEY TAKE CARE OF HIM SO MUCH. Ravage’s determination to provide for and protect soundwave,….. oh I’m so sick I’m so sick

Got this gorgeous art in the mail from @jarofloosescrews and I couldn’t be happier… and it came with stickers!!

At this rate I might have to buy the other two prints as well. I LOVE it, and I’m still debating on whether or not I wanna frame it or just put it up on my wall now.

It drives me a little insane that the episode with the fallout of Villetta shoting Ohgi because of her conflicting allegiances to her lover and Britannia is the same episode that Suzaku and Lelouch shot eachother and struggled with his conflicting loyalties to his best friend and to Britannia and his morals.

You know Ohgi and Villetta the canon romantic couple and their relationship was directly paired and parallels with Suzaku and Lelouch. Adding to my Sazaku Lelouch shipping conspiracy board!

I'm working on a little Din x reader oneshot for Valentine's Day and I can't wait to share it 👀!! I'm finally going to fulfil a solemn duty as a Din writer by having a fic set on Naboo. That whole planet is just made for a romantic getaway, I swear.

Anyway it's entirely fuelled by listening to Across The Stars on repeat and slight deliriousness induced by my head cold lol. I'm excited to post it tomorrow!!

It takes a long time for the tears to stop. Ryoji's still sniffing and rubbing his eyes even when he's finally calmed down enough to breathe, though the sorrow he feels still hasn't gone away. It's more like his body ran out of energy, like he's cried all the tears he can and has been left empty, unable to take the feelings plaguing him for even a moment longer. Of course, that emptiness doesn't feel any easier to bear... but maybe it's a blessing he should appreciate.

When he hears a noise behind him, though - Ryoji's stomach drops as he realizes he's been caught.

Not just by anyone, but by a child. It makes him want to burst into tears all over again; and it hurts, because she's so young and has her whole life ahead of her - or at least she should. In reality, she won't live to see spring. Ryoji grieves for each and every person on this planet - the old and the young, those who are suffering and those who are happy... but it's a special kind of cruelty to think about the fate of the children in this world - to know that even the most innocent of humanity won't be spared, when they've barely had the chance to experience what life has to offer.

Just like him. ...He's sure his feelings must be showing on his face from her expression, and desperately, he tries to reign everything in and force a smile, but his lip wobbles and he soon gives up in defeat. Still, though. He can't let her worry like this - he has to say something.

"I'm- sorry. I mean... I'm okay, really. I'll be fine. So don't make that sad face, okay?"

hc that Tristan likes to occasionally put on lipstick and cover Lance’s face and hands in kisses

AKAJSKS YES

Tristan takes being called pretty wholeheartedly

He doesn't even care how feminine it makes him

He just likes being called pretty, especially when it's his boyfriend calling him it

And whenever he does it, Lance likes to complain and pretend to be bothered by it but in reality, he loves it cause he thinks it's adorable, but he also enjoys it because then Tristan takes him out in public and makes Lance keep all the lipstick marks on and it's almost like Tristan showing off some kind of claim on him and that's why Lance usually doesn't get flustered or embarrassed by it cause instead he's just proud to be shown off as taken by his boyfriend

It's been quiet for some time, Leonard had noticed — not unlike the time he spent in the forest. It left him feeling some way he couldn't exactly tell. Was it unease? Possible loneliness? Either one was a feeling he hadn't expected to come back in such a way, but similarly, again, it had dug up a familiar memory of the forest...

Having finished tending to the small bonfire where he sat, Leonard's shoulders dropped and his head leaned back. For the first time since his pact — since meeting Seere — he wished he could be relieved of his blindness if only to confirm he wasn't alone as he thought he was.

The bonfire's warmth kept him comfortable, at least, as did the hope of the momentary thought that echoed throughout his mind: Time would tell.

//So this isn't an easy decision, but after a couple weeks of mulling it over, I've decided to put this blog into semi-permanent hiatus - basically, if things change either with the state of the RPC or my motivation to write I'll be more than eager to return, though it does seem unlikely.

//Things have been quiet lately, and it's of course by no means anyone's fault for being quiet!! (I can't blame them, life and Tumblr bullshit have taken a toll on a large portion of the RPC as a whole lately) But in the end, I think it had more of an effect on my motivation to write than even I expected. I tried for the past year or so to "Get back on my feet", as even now I deeply miss Leonard and being able to write him, but evidentially, I haven't gotten very far QwQ

//That said!! While this could be it for this blog, if anyone wants to discuss plans for plotting or even just chatting over Discord (At the end of the post), lemme know! One of the hardest things about the choice to leave this blog behind is definitely the loss of community that comes with it, there were a lot of people who followed me and that I briefly spoke to these past months who I don't want to cut off a potential friendship with just because of my own personal circumstances!

//And going onto that topic, I won't be shutting down or removing any current drafts or asks in my inbox in the event I ever magically DO get motivation to write again or something changes, and of course, that in turn means the blog itself will be staying as well!! You might have guessed, it goes without saying that this blog and the interactions on it mean a great deal not to just me, but (At least I hope!!) some of you. It's also a bit of why I wanted to "wrap up" the blog with the in-character piece at the top, even given my issues with writing (I may add to it to make it feel more "complete", given I kinda don't like how half-assed it feels currently), it just didn't feel fair to go for what could be forever without letting him speak his final piece. :,)

//I won't spend too long waxing out all the sentimentals, but I've stated over and over how when I first made this blog, I really wasn't expecting it to last much more than a couple weeks before moving onto another character. It's kind of impossible for me to state just how much this blog and all the experiences on it mean to me personally and the impact it's left, both personally, as I mentioned before, but also in my enjoyment and love for Drakengard 1 and 2 and Leonard's character specifically! Being able to dive into his mind and find someone I can put together so easy with such a well-constructed tragedy, it's not much of an overstatement to say that ironically, being able to play and put my own mind and problems away for one I not only cared to look into, but one I could more easily pick apart and explain the actions of while being layered enough and having enough facets to make it interesting. Leonard in a lot of ways was and is a sort of second life for me, but in a way I didn't have to deal with the burden of having a psychical body or firsthand perspective! lmao

//And not to be sounding all overdramatic or anything but as I said, it's letting go of not just what feels sort of like a little hideout or small part of me I like to nurture and keep from falling into rot, but this blog is some of the most fun I've had in a horribly otherwise busy, yes, but very mundane outside life. It's sort of pathetic to admit, but I mean it in the best way I can when I say I haven't really gotten so emotionally engaged with anything in a long time. Just the small interactions and memorable snippets from this blog, both from long-standing partners, people who fell off, or even people I just spoke to once and then never again still play over in my head and definitely spark a lot of joy when I really need it! I'll be honest, there's not one day that goes by where I don't think of at least one interaction I've had here. I remember my pain at being in a different timezone and always falling behind the drama before I went to the US and could finally catch up. To update on that: I'm not doing too well in the US in all honesty, but I'm doing my best to get on my feet and making progress!! One of the first things I always did in difficult situations was, unironically, use this blog to reference some old posts and memes to laugh and think about all the new connections, subplots, and jokes that were going to be shared.

//I guess the final point I'd like to make is a short one, but a major argument I had against shutting down when the thought first entered my mind, and the hardest part of all this is the loss of potentiality. I had a lot planned for Leonard, both things that I actively wanted to do and just general questions of "What kind of people will he meet with next? What will he think of them, and how long will they get to develop with each other?" The thought both of meeting new people and the interactions that could be shared with them, as well as all the different interactions and shenanigans that I thought might be in store when the DOD RPC came back was a major motivator in why I kept trying to fight my writer's block, and why I even kept this blog going for the past year with barely any activity to speak of. Even going on Discord, as you might imagine, can be limiting in its setup compared to just being able to search and see who's out there via tumblr - and joining communities can be quite an issue being a Leonard mun, specifically!!

//But either way, I'll be sure to find my way around it one way or another, and hopefully, by some divine miracle, I'll just end up back at this blog anyways!! Again, the chances are slim, but I'm really holding out here dskhffkdbhdkh

//I think that should be it based off what I wanted to say, Leonard's left nice and comfy at his campfire, and it's getting late so with ALL that said, if we've spoken or never have before (ESPECIALLY if we never have, I like to believe you followed for a reason so I'd love to speak to you so we can get to know each other better, plot, or just chat!!), please consider following me on Discord!! I'm usually on there, and always happy to talk (Unless I'm on Do not Disturb, but that's hardly ever lol):

//My discord is: barnabism

//Anyways, I apologise for the downer announcement, but this has been wracking my brain for the past few days so I'm at least glad just to get the hard part over with. :,)

//Thank you all for over two years of writing!! Please don't be afraid to reach out, and as always, if you have any questions, please ask!! ^^

“I want to remember you as you were.

Not some debris floating along the sea wall.

Not motionless flung across the rocky shore.

I want you back, breathing and selfish as ever.”
