Do you guys think when he reads a script & sees his character dies Joseph goes “FUCK. AGAIN?!” & slams down the script in a huff? Because I certainly do.

Clay:I can fix her

Scarlet:Please don’t, it took me a lot of effort to fuck her up that badly

[deadwooddross]

Oh yeah, I went ahead and made/decided to use an ancient FA account for the sauce...ignore the fact it took me 11 years to post something

I plan to post a mix of things there, but there u go, a place for the 18+ stuff that isnt twitter, bazinga

[resident-wof-expert]

Peril, grabbing Clay's shoulders with the intensity of a thousand suns: Hey! I love you! Okay!?

Clay: The words are nice, but the tone is scary!

robin poll conduct notice

hey!! so i didn't want to have to make a post like this and i'm not really thrilled at having to do this but i really hit my bullshit threshold so i feel like i need to establish some stuff before i continue sharing any data from the Robin Poll. apologies in advance, i swear i am not typically this aggressive and this is not the kind of post i tend to make.

allow me to preface this by saying that this is not me saying that you cannot have different opinions than me, or anything like that, okay, if that's what you take away from this i don't know how to help you.

also, i'm not super familiar with tumblr etiquette, but i just want to say that i have their @'s removed bc i have them blocked.

first of all, please do not make bad faith assumptions about me as a person, i understand that i cannot ask you to make zero assumptions about me, and to an extent i do not care what you think about me but like idk think before you fucking speak?

i'm just going to brush over the fact that hey, maybe if you don't like any of the characters on the questionnaire directed to their fans, then maybe don't participate, wild thought, because that's beside the point frankly.

i did not include Duke as a Robin, (the only characters I included were Dick, Jason, Steph, Tim, and Damian, hereafter referred to as The Five), because he does not count as a Robin by the metrics i was using.

the five Robins i included are the core characters who have carried the mantle for a significant period of time since Dick's entrance to canon-present. Carrie was not included because she's Robin in canon-future. Duke was not included because the only time he has canonically been Robin is in Batwheels.

"No, because in We Are Robin-" I'm going to stop you right there. I have read that series. I know what the fuck I'm talking about. If you've also read that series and somehow come to the conclusion that Duke is Robin in the same way that the The Five are, i'm glad i don't have your reading comprehension skills. i can't understand this for you either. Furthermore, if i was going to count Duke as a Robin because he was part of the We Are Robin movement, i would also include Dax, Dre, Izzy, Riko- you get the picture, i hope.

also lemme just-

not that this will convince anyone who firmly believes Duke is Robin the same way The Five are, but like when i say Duke's skin color has fuck all to do with why i did not include him- i mean that wholeheartedly.

and if you headcanon Duke as Robin, cool!! if you think he should've been Robin, cool!! there's nothing wrong with Duke being Robin- he just has not been Robin in comics!canon. (do not play the semantics game with me, you will lose.)

if it had been a Batkid/Batfam poll, Duke would've been on there!!

also, the poll was not a "which two characters that have worn a Robin/Robin-inspired suit do you like the most" poll. if you want that data, cool!! go do your own research.

second!! i have zero tolerance for this data being used to shame other Robin fans, this is not being shared so y'all can hop on your wank soapbox and jack off.

this kind of bullshit is not going to fucking fly. besides the fact that there is just so much that is...blatantly incorrect about this statement, this is "obnoxious conduct". i'm not going to waste my time getting into the weeds on this comment, mainly bc they're blocked so they won't see this so there's no point.

and to be clear, this did not upset me bc it was negative towards Tim stans and I'm a Tim stan- this comment could've been about any Robin and I would've been pissed. Tim might be my fave, but I deeply love all the Robins.

actually briefly, i'm going to say that i think it is beyond fucking stupid to bitch at fanon!Tim fans bc you think they're ruining comic!Tim's success. people who are invested primarily in fanon are probably not reading comics, and if they are, they're almost definitely not buying them so they're not impacting sales. you know who is? comic readers. if they cannot separate fanon!Tim from canon!Tim, that's a skill issue on their part. but like seriously, you think Tim Drake: Robin flopped bc of fanon!Tim? you do realize that the art was not well received, right? and that a lot of comics-buying fans are homophobic? and that oh, idk, a lot of comic!Tim fans disliked the run for valid reasons that had nothing to do with the art or being homophobic?

OR, hear me out, people are allowed to dislike characters and fans of that character are better off respecting that??

obviously stan behavior can be off-putting af. i'm not saying that stans should be able to do whatever- there's a lot of behavior from all stans that is just exhausting and pointless and benefits no one. but it's like...you do understand rage bait and hate gets engagement and social media algorithms don't differentiate between positive and negative, they just push whatever's getting interacted with. if you don't make an effort to avoid wank, you're going to drown in it. and if you're only ever in a handful of bubbles cycling the same opinions, that's all you're going to know. that doesn't mean that it's a real reflection of reality.

generalizing is so...i literally made the questionnaire because i believe that you can't generalize stan opinions based off who their #1 Robin is. stans are not a monolith.

what are the comic!Tim stans supposed to "take to heart" here? do you think we like woobie!Tim? do you think commenting about how OOC fanon!Tim is on a fanfic accomplishes anything than upsetting a fanfic author? do you think our posts about comic!Tim tend to break out of comic!Tim bubbles and impact fanon!Tim in any kind of controllable way?

and that goes for all stans, like it is no one's job/responsibility (or place quite frankly) to be policing how others interpret/enjoy characters. write your character analysis posts, share the fact-check panels, whatever, i'm not saying you can't discuss how you think a character should be interpreted. but like damn. save your energy for the people who want to have a conversation/learn. and be fucking nice about it- istg the attitudes of comics fans is probably one of the biggest turn offs for people who might otherwise be interested in comics, that and the sheer volume of content.

(if you're like, "okay hypocrite" bc i just angrily laid out why i didn't include Duke as Robin- i am allowed to not tolerate being called racist on my own post. i'm not stepping into Duke is Robin truther spaces and shitting on their fun.)

finally, and this is not strictly a continuation of the previous comment, i've been made aware that this data is being discussed elsewhere, which is fine, but i really cannot stress enough that this data is not generalizable. that's not an "excuse", it's a mathematical fact. the data isn't even reflective of only the opinions of people who follow my tumblr- my tumblr is super small, we got wayyyy more responders than i have followers, by a lot!! this data cannot be used to support any claims about fandom at large, nor was it intended to.

as i've stated multiple times, this questionnaire was not made to measure if someone was a "real" fan. meaning, it doesn't exist to grade fans or shame fans or do literally anything other than help me find out if knowing someone's top two fave Robins is significantly more informative than simply knowing who their number one favorite Robin is.

that's it. i literally just want to know "are X stans basically alike, or does it change depending on this specific factor", that factor being who their second favorite is.

tl;dr- this data was not collected to be turned into wank, it is not being shared to cultivate wank, and anyone that attaches wank to my posts directly will be blocked. i want to share this data with everyone who is interested, but no one is entitled to the results.

sorry if this was your introduction to me, i swear i am usually much happier and more diplomatic, but i hit my personal limit and i wanted to be really fucking clear about the boundaries i'm drawing. i will be using my block button as i see fit bc i want to enjoy the time i spend on this platform and put into this project. and you can block me too!!

okay but can we imagine darry wearing the shirt paul gave him to bed after the events of the musical...

he had actually shoved it to the bottom of his drawer after they broke up because hello that's his ex's shirt and he lowkey forgot he even had it only for paul to bring it up at the rumble

and so he digs it out of his drawer and cuddles with it reminiscing about the days when his life wasn't shit and his boyfriend

but wait i have more... the reason paul gave it to him is because during one of their famous sleepovers darry spilled something on his shirt, so paul gave him one of his and then comments that he should keep it because it looks so much better on darry than it does him (im screaming into the void why am i coming up with these ideas, i should be sleeping!)

what if i write my first fic about this... (i have literally never had such a desire to write before this fucking musical sending me into a tailspin)

hello. you are INSANE!!!!! i think madras shirts are more dressy so idk if darry would be sleeping in it but…falling asleep w it in his arms…….sleeping in old hoodies of paul’s that he’d take from paul’s house………hmmmm.

PLEASEEEEEEE write paul darry fic!!!! there is not NEARLY enough!!!!! who needs sleep!!!

#RPGaDAY2024 Day 6! You Awaken in a Strange Place by Jacob Andrews is a no-prep game that is very easy to pick up and creates beautifully chaotic one-shot adventures! I've got to play in two games for @realmspod and they were both utterly delightful.

Roll D20

Can Toriel escape her doughy bonds before Chica finishes covering her in sauce and cheese, to make the ultimate meatlovers pizza?

Toriel wrestled with the dough binding her arms and feet, muffledly yelling into the dough gag in her mouth as Chica robotically ladled sauce over her! With how much she'd worked with dough before, she could tell, the more she was fighting, the more she was making gluten develop, making her bonds thicker and tougher to pull.. She put up her hands to try and shield herself from another splash of sauce.. Aha! The watery sauce might help lubricate things! As Chica sprinkled cheese over her, Toriel was wiggling and pulling, trying to pull her arms free without alerting the animatronic anything was going on.. As Chica turned to turn the oven up, Toriel popped a hand free! She quickly tossed her bondage off, silently slipping out of the kitchen. As she escaped into the pizzeria, she could hear Chica's loud squwaks of rage..

Now's the next problem though. She has to ditch her robes, they smell too delicious. So she's now half-naked, in the middle of the pizzeria, and all the animatronics are wandering around..

(Roll: 15)
