#also als in that tier bc al.

[suffarustuffaru]

hi i made a tier list of how homophobic rezero characters are

hello in the spirit of valentine's day and the very welcoming community here on rezero tumblr i decided to make this with the help of my lovely mutuals.

[lil-binuu]

did someone ask for a…WARDEN NAMES TIER LIST????? no? i made one anyway 🥰

Here’s the tier list ^^ and below i’m ranking them all and adding a 30th one right at the end!

i wanna know everyone’s favs and maybe i’ll make a poll?

1. Bruce. It just gives gangster. (also bcs of batman bcs let’s be real, warden is so batman.)

2. Henry. IT JUST SUITTTSSSSSSS

3. Frank. can anyone else hear that stereotypical new york gangster accent?

4. Danny. YALL ITS SO GANGSTER?????

5. Richard. V sophisticated.

6. Authur. It’s giving grandaddy

7. Alan. Not bad. Nickname: Al? Al the gangster? wait no that’s so un-intimidating 😭

8. Mark. pretty good, would suit him, difficult to scream tho

9. George. Classic ig

10. Steven. the name is bad but the vibe is decent

11. Johnny. Again, i can hear an american gangster being called this but it’s quite un-intimidating

12. Kenneth. i don’t have any words.

13. Wayne. Icl i can see it?

14. William. This one i think should be moved higher bcs it’s acc not bad.

15. Micheal. It would suit him it’s just a bit basic

16. Thomas. Bluds a tank engine ig 🤷‍♀️

17. Edward. hmm quite posh

18. Kevin. Doesn’t suit that much and also a bit plain

19. John. please no the poor guy has suffered enough.

20. Steve. I can see it being a gangster name but it’s laughable

21. Dennis. no…

22. Donald. Is it bad that i can see this??

23. Willie. please don’t send a bomb to my house

24. Paul. he’s not that old

25. Larry. it’s american ig?

27. Gary. better or worse?

28. Ronald. Mcdonald?

29. Gregory. Im sorry but why can i see it… Like someone calling him Greg? maybe i’m just desperate for this guy to have a name idk

before the last one, i wanna know what y’all think!! any suggestions or opinions? should i make a top 10 poll and we can all vote?

now finally, last but not least,

30. Daddy. NO IM KIDDING AHAHHAGAGAHG

[velvetcrimsonkisses]

JJK- who I think they would main in Genshin (drabble)

Gojo- Barbara or Venti or Childe 💀 he's just silly like that tbh. OR he'll make geto match with him with some silly ship like... zhongli and childe . I feel like that suits them. My sister said Ayato cause they're both rich 😭. He is such a whale 🗣 he gets everyone and their weapons BUT either doesn't build them or they have shitty builds

Geto- Zhongli... like he'll main him first. Then Gojo mains Childe 💀. Al Haitham also fits him. Only whales on characters he likes. WAIT he also def likes Yae Miko. His builds would be god tier honestly

Shoko- Hu Tao... she loves her. She's def the type to only pull for the woman. Doesn't whale but occasionally spends.

Nanami- this was tough bc I don't think he'd actually play 😭 but let's say he was forced. I'm thinking Diluc. He just vibes with him. Plus Diluc is a gentleman and so is Nanami so.

Choso- hear me out... Kokomi. He just loves playing healer 😭 and he thinks she is pretty. That's all. Definitely plays with Yuji, Megumi, and Nobara. And does not spend money.

Yuji- I'm stuck. I feel like he'd have a lot of good DPS built. But mains Bennett.... He also loves Eula for sure. And I think he'd use Itto too.

Megumi- Xiao. Nothing else to say here. He also uses other characters but Xiao is his favorite. Good builds too.

Nobara- Fischl. I think she'd really like her character design and just stick with her. I think she'd also like Ningguang because of her outfits.

Maki- gives me strong Beidou vibes. She definitely likes using anyone with a claymore tho.

Lmk who yall think they'd main 🥸

[httpserb]

hi !! so update on the everyone loves tobio fanfic where he hangs out with a bunch of different teams

i think ill call it bluebird bc yk the blue colouring and the main focus of the fic is everyone getting to know tobio and loving him thus bluebird being known as a symbol for happiness, joy, hope, and renewal which would match bc everyone is kinda meeting a newer tobio that has been loved by karasuno (bc his character development is top tier tbh) so yeah

als the teams that are going to be at the random training camp will be seijoh, nekoma, fukurodani, date tech, shiratorizawa, inaraki (ignore the fact i cant spell), sakusa & komori's school, and maybe hoshiumi school (also dont question the timeline on how they did this is extremely self-indulgent ntm I'm putting all my favorite teams in a pressure washer and forcing everyone to bond with tobio & each other + yk foreshadow friendships seen in the timeskip so yea)

urelated: i think it would be funny to give the chapters in king's crown funny silly titles despite being a mix of depression and comedy bc tobio's life is a joke (said with love ofc)

✴THE BUDDIE WEDDING✴

Part 7 - The Reception

✴Let the party begin!!!!!!✴

Buck and Eddie enter the reception in their super cool white outfits (see Part 5) while Whatta Man plays. Everyone get wasted and lights the dance floor on fire.

Food

Abuela and Pepa are in charge of the menu (Eddie offered to get a caterer but they insisted)

They compromised by letting Buck help them cook (Eddie's not allowed in the kitchen

The meal is all things Mexican cuisine (tacos, tamales, quesadilla, etc.)

Cake

3 Tiers decorated as seen in the board

Each tier is a different flavor, vanilla, chocolate, and red velvet, bc Buck couldn't decide one

There is also a matching cupcakes tower

Drinks

There ofc is an open bar with signature drinks!:

Buck's Bold Margarita 🍸✨

Eddie's Elegant Old Fashioned 🥃🍒

The Buckley-Diaz Daiquiri 🍹🍓

(Honorable Mention for "Evan's Electrifying Espresso Martini" but i thought that might be a little too on the nose lol)

First Dance Song

Let's Stay Together by Al Green (this just feels like a song Eddie would choose)

Lyrics: "Let's stay together (together) Loving you whether, whether Times are good or bad, happy or sad"

Speeches

All of the wedding party give speeches all along the lines of "we all knew this was coming."

Athena's speech is hilarious and a crowd favorite

Bobby cries and brings everyone to tears (So does Maddie's)

Playlist

What I Like About You by The Romantics (bc ofc)

Dancing In The Dark by Bruce Springsteen (apparently Buck and Bobby went to a Springsteen concert together in s1???)

My Sharona by The Knacks

More Than a Feeling by Boston

(did this slightly turn into dad rock playlist? yes. is the whole playlist linked in my bio? also yes ;))

Part 8

Main Post

[cyb-by-lang]

okay so i've been thinking about A Ninja's Guide to Gotham and i think i know what Ra's al Ghul's plan is, at least what he (and Zetsu) want to do

the plan to set Kei loose on Konoha didn't go well for Zetsu and Madara, she had her team to help (and the power of foresight) but the gist of the idea could still work, if Zetsu sets up the stage right

Kei has a pretty good grasp on her emotions, but Hayate (specifically, Hayate in danger/hurt Hayate) being her trigger is known to Zetsu. so it makes sense to isolate the two from the rest of their village. drop them into a batshit (ha) crazy city, keep them separated, really pile the stress on Kei and wear her down.

all the while, they've got a Zetsu army cooking for maximum trauma later.

Ra's al Ghul wants to destroy Gotham, and this Zetsu has essentially handed him the trigger for a massive walking bomb, but can only be activated under very specific circumstances. and Kei, as stressed as she is and even with almost losing it a couple of times, has done an excellent job reigning her fury in (thanks Isobu)

AND there's the fear toxin. i imagine they've been adjusting it this whole time to actually work on a Jinchuriki.

i don't think they really want Kei to join them, necessarily (though it might save them a few steps) i think all the attacks serve mostly to increase Kei's stress until she starts breaking.

and then Zetsu was trying to take Hayate. because what would be the one thing to almost certainly break Kei?

idk if this is how it will play out exactly, but i'm guessing this is the gist of Ra's and Zetsu's plan:

Zetsu army attack, with giant Zetsu monster included to spread out the Bats and allies. try and separate Kei from team. keep her focused on the attacks without provoking her yet, but wear her down.

take Hayate, or at least manipulate the field to put him within sight of Kei. kill him where she can clearly see.

use that moment of shock to shoot as many fear toxin darts at her as possible. if she's distracted enough, she might get a few doses. and it doesn't matter much how quickly Isobu burns through the poison, because all they need is that initial ignition of super enhanced terror and trauma for her to explode into a raging Jinchuriki. throw the Zetsu monster back at her, and they take out half of Gotham ripping each other to pieces.

(the Bats and Kei's team hear her agonized beastial screech, even the ones on the other side of the city, and know this is Worst Case Scenario)

this is an excellent narrative strategy for maximum pain and plot drama for Kei and friends, and i can see it coming so close to fruition (if i'm even in the ballpark here, this is all an educated guess)

unfortunately for Ra's and Zetsu, Batman exists. he knows how Ra's operates. once the fear toxin came into play, and Batman listened to Kei talk about her past, i'm pretty sure he could connect those dots.

"Superpowered ninja host of a demon able to level a city, if pressed, and her main trauma trigger is her brother being threatened or harmed in any way. Right. Best keep the brother out of harm's way. If only they could all stay put."

also unfortunate for Ra's and Zetsu, Jason exists. i doubt they were expecting Hayate to adopt Gotham's newest menace, nor for Jason to take to it like a mother goose. Kei might be correct in thinking Hayate is safer with Jason than with her, bc as volatile and explosive as he can be, he's not quite "city-leveling" tier.

as DC stories tend to go, the villains plot usually gets to play out at least most of the way. so maybe Hayate does get hurt at some point, maybe Kei does lose it, but this could be where Jason finally works with the Bats + Team Minato to save the day (and his new little brother....)

anyway, idk how much of this is right, but the pieces have been fitting themselves together in the back of my brain for a while. and if i'm on the money on any of this and you'd rather not post bc spoilers, no worries!! i just wanted to share how much i've been thinking about it, it's on a short list of things i play in my mental movie theater ಠ⁠◡⁠ಠ

[image description: a GIF of Kronk from Emperor's New Groove saying "Oh yeah. It's all coming together." end description.]

I love it when readers send me their analysis. It really helps me figure out what's working when I write and what is sticking with people.

And I hope you feel like a detective for having figured out most of today's evil plan (credit to Ra's al Ghul) before a fair number of the characters in Gotham have. I'm glad you picked up on it!

[sixosix]

ntiywimv anon here again! i just binged some of your works and some of the writers you recommended! i have some thoughts so get comfy bc this is a LONNGHG ride

i especially loved your wanderer birthday fic! something about your writing style makes it so addicting and even just from the first sentence alone, you already reel me in like an unsuspecting fish (reader) and throw me to the waters of your AMAZING WRITING HELLO???? i also love your kazuha fic, the way you write is so soft yet so in character in a way? peak atp

i also gravitated to user @/earthtooz's writing out of all the writers you recommended me hehe; their al-haitham fic was very scrumptious i ate it up like it was my last meal for real ;x; the way they write for diluc too - so soft, so lovely that it feels like a huge blanket covering my poor heart and dousing it with massive amounts of glucose and sugar 😍

(this is now me realizing that i may have talked your figurative ear off too much about how much i adore your writing and the blogs you recoed me jdudufjei)

*mic turns off* will be off to run now and i will definitely return in your inbox for either a) fic recs that i think are pretty noteworthy (hope you don't mind ?) b) just chatting here on your inbox 📥 📥 and c) catching up on ur lyney series!!! i just saw the fanart and i love it soso much already uuuuu

this ask ended up being too long methinks 🫠

IM A PRO FISHER!!!!!!!! THIS IS SO EPIC!!!

no but srsly HAHA thank you! my writing style has changed so much and i think im sticking with this one because its the type of style id love to read myself, too! so im very satisfied hearing that u like it as well ❤️

@earthtooz big sibling did u hear that? your alhaitham and diluc are top tier. bless 🫶

and dont worry too much about sending long asks!! ive said it before but theres nothing that makes my day more than readers who share their thoughts! its every writer’s dream to get nice feedback—if anything youre doing /me/ a favor ahah

thank you for stopping by! have a good day <3

[hematomes]

im bored. mario kart tier list

justification utc but i know im way too confident abt this

kaeya, yae, rosaria, ningguang: they utter a single word and i drop the controller and lie on my back. makes it hard to play. emphasis on kaeya and yae bc it's their favorite weapon so they'd abuse it

xiao, zu: they make me nervous. even if they don't really play seriously i would be too tense. also the justification above kind of applies to them

albedo, beidou, yelan (twice visibly), candace, cyno, lumine: nervous too but not in the same sense. i can't perform under pressure. im scared of the consequences of a potential win. also in a surge of realism i realized that there's no way id win against any of them

ayato, dori, heizou, faruzan: pure skill issue. they'd destroy me. im prideful and delusional but not that much

not much to say for the 2nd row except that kokomi would in fact be a brutal foe. she'd play with a strategy. i play with my guts. if i do win it's pure luck. also childe could in fact win but ill kick the controller out of his hand before i let that happen

3rd row is mostly bc i can't see them used to the game. except yoimiya but she'd have played only with kids and i like to think that im harder to beat than a kid

itto is many things but he's not a winner. neither am i but there's like a 60% chance i can beat him. the others are mostly too slow/soft <3

thoma and noelle would let me win bc they're too nice. which would piss me off so i would want them to play seriously. which would probably put them in the 1st row. so we'd go back to being nice to me.

diluc? purely to entertain me bc im cute and loveable :). (< delusional again) al-haitham wouldn't even bother i think. i would however introduce him to minecraft (i have never played minecraft in my life)

ganyu and zhongli would just try to understand how to use the controller and fail. it's okay you did your best 👨‍❤️‍💋‍👨

[rosegoldenatlas]

Mayo: good on cold sanwiches and nothing else

Froyo: ehh its a Mid dessert

salt and vinegar chips: good but not something I go out of my way to get. Like if I'm offered or someone else bought them I'll gladly eat it but I'm not paying for that

Sweet potatoes: I don't like any potatoes on principle (I have really bad texture issues and all potatoes feel like someone just finished chewing their food and spit it in my mouth)

Kiwi: TOP TIER FRUIT but WHY IS IT SO EXPENSIVE

Ginger Ale: good, cheap, easy to bring to family reunions as a drink bc the health nuts font count it as a soda for some reason and its also magic for stomach aches and queasiness (bc of the ginger but it doesn't taste like ginger which is a bonus)

Microwave Ramen: a staple in the household. Everyone must have at least one in their house. Dirt cheap, fills your stomach, doesn't taste like shit, and its fast. But IG you have the time Packet Ramen (that shit you put on the stove) is always better

Alright. We’re settling this discourse once and for all.

In the tags, tell me your opinion on:

Mayonnaise

Frozen Yogurt 

Salt and Vinegar Chips

Sweet Potatoes

Kiwi

Ginger Ale

Microwave Ramen

i'm just getting this out ahead of time. if this ends in another cheese debacle im. pls don't

apparently 'use your words to ask for things' is a concept that moblins are allergic to. god dammit

koana is that guy who studied abroad for a semester and came home all 'they do it Like This in Sharlayan We Should Too'

dont love that he's internalised so much that the foreign way is besterest, or that the writing keeps half supporting his assertions

[while standing right next to an aethyryte] whyyyyy do we have to taaaake a booooooooat

wait this is why we had that aside with the melodramatic elf wasn't it. sigh

so as well as speedrunning his character arc he's speedrun his citizenship arc. good for him i guess?

cool, role quests unlocked. time to ignore those until level 98

okay the gulool jaja fight was p fun

also i like that this whole hting isn't just. heeheehoohoo trial by combat goes brrr. he's like if izaro actually rubbed his braincells together and didn't set the empire up to fail

[koana voice] everyone will think twice about fighting us once we have advanced technology

yes that's definitely how this works. also absolutely the reason garlemald left sharlayan alone. not because sharlayan kept running away like the cowardly fucks they are.

wow. gee. lamat got herself catnapped this definitely wasn't incredibly predictable

doing the stealth section while it's pissing it down with rain so my girl has her bright white umbrella out = top tier

well. koana's not having kids the old fashioned way

and once again we all just. stand there like muppets while the bad guy retreats.

then again literally all of this could have been avoided if someone had. escorted the catgirl when she was lured into the Very Obvious Trap. sigh

either way this is going to end with one of the cats on the throne and the other in an advisory capacity. and i hate it

i had to xp grind here bc of Miscalculations. how embarassing -_-

worlar's echo

finally realising that the urqopacha day theme has the same opening as the sohm al theme. concerned about what further parallels are going to be drawn. is valigarmanda nidhogg's ex? is estinien going to get posessed again? pls say no

at least there's not a blue hair elf pld for them to kill off this time

okay so i was wrong about valigarmanda. i still expect that the seal in the city will house a boss fight, though.

new prediction: the feat of ice will start with 'strengthen valigarmanda's prison', and end up being 'actually just fucking kill it'

pretty purple bird. it's the next dungeon boss isnt it

dungeon 2 - worqor zamor

alisae green dps LMAO

how i feel during prog sometimes. tbh

krile uses aoe spells?? in dungeon??? what is this MADNESS

hot Damn i like boss 1 a lot. it's cute but also its mechanics are kinda fun

i also like that trusts don't just run to the safe spot straight away any more. little details in programming them that makes them seem more human

boss 3's no slouch either. honestly a good dungeon alround tbh

the gear is unique too. dyes too

aaay got the orc roll too

valigarmanda

...and we didn't use erenville's magic macguffin when lamat was missing because....?

WHY COULDNT WE FEED IT THE INFORMATION IN THE FIRST PLACE. christ this is so needlessly padded

the normal was pretty fun. ex hopefully will be interesting. the persistent dot on everyone after the add phase was an interesting touch. music slaps too

it occured to me about half way through that if valigarmanda is/was an auspice, it probably lost itself to aramitama at some point, which is. sad, honestly. give your local long lived sentient animal a hug before they go mad and blow the world up

also i noticed krile casting aero ii at vali and. i guess her ai script just loops aoe spells in part of it, instead of being smart enough to tell between single target and multiple targets. at least she aoes i guess.

oh. the "golden city" was amarout wasn't it. 🙃🔫

iq br'aax

so instead of using our words and just. asking someone what this recipe is, we're going to watch people and divine a particular recipe from the aether. why is this storyline so allergic to people talking to each other like adults

what am i saying this is xiv nobody talks to each other like adults. urianger least of all.

[consults crafting log] well either it's higher than level 95, requires a master crafting book, or doesn't exist. there i solved the trial can we- [dragged off stage out back]

...why the fuck is french toast a level 93 recipe

oh okay i used my words and asked someone and we were forbidden from being told this information so i guess we're just following quest markers until we stumble upon it by happenstance and exposition

oh my god alphinaud shut up about the fuckin firewood

brokering peace by appealing to a greater xenophobia is. it sure is a tactic i guess

not that he's wrong per se but like.

if there's been peace for eighty years tho, and barring the use of something like black rose, you'd have thought the cinderfields would have grown back by now. ash is a wonderful fertiliser, after all. but what do i know

(even then the east end still has more regrowth that. an old battlefield in the middle of a rainforest? okay.)

pls krile i powerleveled cul so i could afk macro my own consumables. i do not cook

i keep periodically remembering the person responsible for overseeing this expac and i'm just. yeah. the heavy handedness. yeah.

Oh Boy Parenthood Drama man

Wuk Lamat Has Two Dads (but no mom. xiv pls)

"several cutscenes" says the prompt, while there's the telltale solo instance marker around an npc. sure, jan

apparently squex did not in fact get the memo that people hate rp battles

wol: [popcorn intensifies]

mamook

we are actually visiting. an entire map during a single arc of the story. this is unprecedented. at least outide of final zones, anyway. which i know this isn't bc my shared fate and aether current trackers are half empty

you know i. i'm extremely not a fan of how it's the lizards of all the groups here that are the supremacists who are not above lying/cheating/stealing/etc. just saying

SILVERSCALES MENTIONED

actually i've been sorta wishing i could bring it up. 'yeah i beat several shades out of him for bullying harmless tonberries. who then finished him off with their knives, yes, but fucker had it coming'

why are there alkonosts here 👀 not that it really matters but. pretty birb-not-birb

man we're gearing up to Power Of Friendship the racist supremacists again aren't we

whatever. lower yak'tel is so pretty, i can't wait to fish here :3

i like how everyone assumes that we're on the level and didn't murder bakool for his blessed scales like he kinda deserved

GLOW IN THE DARK BANANAS

actually i just saw a glow in the dark skeletal alkonost and now im wondering if the glow in the dark isn't like. radiation or someshit

i guess it tracks that the one thing wuk lamat would learn from the wol would be the ability to look at an enemy who despises everything that they are and go. "FRIEND SHAPED. :D"

oh okay we're Power Of Science (And Also Friendship)-ing our way out of this

which is great and all but man. sometimes people are just power hungry dicks, you know? this is the same shit we went through in garlemald. 'waugh they were only xenophobic warmongers because they had to live in a shitty country and people were shitty to them'. which, again. werlyt author -_-

...the catboy's going to quit, isn't he

ilevel for this battle is 666. lmao

"everyone ready?" erenville: [flees]

i didnt realise roegadyn were from yorkshire

i'm going to go out on a limb here and assume the fact that kettie is still alive is connected to something in not!amaurot

im also going to crash here bc its 2am and ive been awak since [looks at clock] too early. TMORROW: WE CONTINUE

[cantalooprat]

How to Feed an Abyss!

What I Liked

aoe emotional damage

"sweet text" ok authornim whatever you say... ok it's actually quite sweet tho. shi yuan and lu tinghan are both very sweet. it's just that being a post-apocalyptic? story, it's inevitably rather bleak although at the same time it's also full of hope. at its core it's still a very warm story of an ordinary love story in a not-so-ordinary setting.

shi yuan purring whenever lu tinghan rubs his head... so cute

before saying many, many things abt shi yuan and lu tinghan i'd like to make a special mention of the many, many side characters. lu bafang and wang yu, the first people whom shi yuan met and are still good friends with; cheng youwen and qin luoluo and wolfgang and tracy (and xia fang ig); lin yeran and his dead lover and edward and his dead family; general su and his son and the shitty jiang dude and the rest of lu tinghan's squad; alice the AI and her long-lost brother; prof guan whose snacks always get stolen; princess alicia and her mole people; even lu tinghan's absent parents, and so many more... like it's clear that shi yuan learned a lot from them, but they each also have their own stories, and the novel makes it a point that they're not just side characters, they're people trying their best to live in a world fraught with constant dangers, and they make the story just all that more vibrant.

lu tinghan... a very noble soul. he's the hero of humanity but to his sweet little abyss, he's just his human. he is really very good. kind of low quality (lmao) but still very good. top tier ml tbh, super green flag. love how he teases shi yuan, love how he respects shi yuan, love how he's responsible to the people of the alliance and his humbleness, like when he stands vigil when the death knell rings and when he said that no one is irreplaceable, he might meet his end in the abyss but there will be others who also rise to become heroes. love how he's not perfect---he litters (lmao), probably a beast in bed (shi yuan would know), is too cowardly to say a proper goodbye (but tries his best anyway), is tone deaf (but shi yuan still gets him a violin and even says that he should stay at the wall and play bc monsters will def not wanna come close LMAO). he is just so so so good. he can join the ranks of top-grade ml along w lou ying from trashbin boyfriend and dong zheng from i was once a legend.

shi yuan adorable cute sweet the best abyss i love when he purrs whenever lu tinghan rubs his head and how his tail also emotes and how he's good? at acting and how he's traumatized over lu tinhan's littering lmao. how under his seeming obliviousness towards human customs and common sense, he's really an abyss who has lived for thousands and thousands of years and has some wisdom that comes with it. i love his crooked sense of aesthetics and naming sense and how he and lu tinghan dig at each other lmao he can be so savage sometimes. i love how he loves both humanity and monsters, i love his journey through the human settlements and through the wasteland, the empathy he has for both sides, and how his love for lu tinghan evolved from "i want to infect you, the world is cruel, let us live together forever in the mud and bones" to being by lu tinghan's side in his final moments, letting him die with dignity as a human and believing that he will find him again.

breaks my heart when lu tinghan takes him out on an autumn outing to all the fallen cities, revisiting the places full of their memories as their farewell trip, and he said that he understands that lu tinghan is human and that he's been ready to say good-bye from the very first moment they met. this trip actually gave me hi3 graduation trip vibes anw i cried. "this is a story of love, and it will end with love" this also applies to hfa. the core of their love story is that they might not need an eternity, it's the present that's important and they'll make the present as precious as possible, in the limited time that they have.

also ig it was sort of obvious, the foreshadowing in the play "the martyr", how shi yuan in the end did become the god of salvation and lu tinghan is humanity's martyr, but it's also rly poetic in a way, kind of like the inevitable end that was coming anyway, and they accepted it with no regrets, making the most of what little time they had. their relationship was really so sweet that one can't help but really truly want them to be happy.

the real answer to the ever-repeated question of "i like little mushroom, what other novels are similar to it?" that said hfa and lm r only similar to each other on the surface---the fundamental and philosophical concepts they're exploring are completely different but it also makes it incredibly fun to compare and contrast the two! not to say which one is better, but just to explore the themes of humanity, love, and "eternity" that both novels delve into.

im convinced that shi yuan and an zhe could be the best of friends tho

i especially like the contrast of shi yuan being basically god of the monsters but lu tinghan describes him as "he's my lover" and an zhe is just a tiny little mushroom but to lu feng "he is the one who judges me". that juxtaposition of "position of power" relative to the actual being's "power level" is so delicious

also how the summary is a lie and yet not. like when the story got to the part where the summary is n i was like ohhhhh so that's how it is... it's not a lie... but at the same time... the story def isn't as lighthearted as the summary implies

some parts of the story were like a fever dream. the lighthouse and the dolphin. the whole deep dive into abyss no. 1. the ending. their first meeting. the atmosphere rly felt like there's this silvery gauze curtain obscuring one's sight and yet it also makes the scenery more beautiful

tbh i thought the main story ending was perfect as it was but the extras were sweet and explained some things and gave them the happy ending that was def def well-earned.

i cried at the main story ending. it was so beautiful

sometimes i love you is wanting to infect them so they can stay together forever and then understanding that dying as a human is dignity, and also allowing for the infection to happen just so that they can stay together forever.

sometimes i love you is waiting for an indeterminate amount of time for just one person to come, and finding that person who is waiting to give him an infinite amount of love in a finite time.

What I Disliked

the body count 💀💀💀 yes i am aware that it's a post-apocalyptic novel yes i am also weak to sad stories and regrets and unfulfilled promises and a future that is out of reach. it's less that i "dislike it" and more that im rly weak to this sort of stuff.

sort of wish shi yuan met lu tinghan's parents in the extras, i feel like it would've been a nice callback to the illusion lu tinghan experienced

Notes

when i was at like the 100 ch count i read this until 4am to finish it and i cried a good 3-4 times intermittently from like 1-4am reading the climax and ending and extras good lord

i made a playlist while reading ch 100-136 lmao some anime ost actually suit the story quite well, esp things like macross and guilty crown/egoist. special mention to eill's finale for the main story ending when lu tinghan and shi yuan reunited. those lyrics...

god i need to read sth cute and brainless after this

if anyone just so happens to read this post, pls pls give how to feed an abyss a try (esp if u also like little mushroom, if u've never read both and like/curious abt post-apocalyptic human society setting then even better, read both!) it is definitely a journey worth your time. one of my top reads in 2023 i bought it on jj as i wrote this it's what shi yuan and lu tinghan deserve

rating jason todd ships like people rate random emojis

Jaytemis (Jason/Artemis)

Depending on who writes it, it is a god tier ship with unlimited possibilities or an awkward forced ship written by men who no one wants for good reasons. jason braids her hair and will read classics to her in like ancient greek or something. the absurdly hot punk couple that always look distinctly unimpressed. matching eyebrow raises and sighs. only soft with each other. biting comments softened with a slight smile and soft eyes. kisses on the forehead and arms wrapped around waists. 11/10

Jayrose (Jason/Rose Wilson)

Probably my favorite canon ship for Jason ngl. They commit crimes on dates nights, steal from the rich, spice up things with a little arson. Absolutely best friends. Jason would be Rose's trophy malewife. Has dinner ready when she comes home. its unknown whether bruce or slade hate this relationship more. damian loves her and thats so rare the rest of the siblings follow his lead and agree on the relationship 10/10

Jayroy (Jason/Roy Harper)

Top tier Jason ship. The best one out there. Idiots to lovers. Also has the appeal of in-laws hating each other. Canon parents. Instead of their fathers walking them down the aisle, their mothers did. helping each other heal. lazy mornings in bed. sharing soft smiles and laughter, loud rock music, fast car rides at nights on backroads. the knowledge of knowing youre loved unconditionally and you always will be 1000/10

Jaykara (Jason/Kara Zol-El)

Cute, sure. Bad boy meets good girl story cliche I used to read religiously on wattpad. Prefer them as friends as Kara is super gay for Lena. Kara's time as a Red Lantern would help her understand Jason and add more nuance to their relationship. bruce wholeheartedly supports this relationship. kisses on the cheek and coffee dates. cheesy pickup lines 7/10

Joyfire (Jason/Roy Harper/Koriand'r)

tfw when an exiled princess returns to her kingdom to become queen and name the hot men always at her side her royal consorts. kori 100% pegs both, taller than both, manhandles both. tangled feet, waking up with hair in your mouth and throwing a pillow at whoever is snoring. kori's big spoon. jason braids her hair as they watch alien telenovas together while roy tinkers. teaching jason the language of her home planet. spicy food that usually ends up slightly burnt as they dance around the kitchen. hooking your chin over one's shoulder. swapping vigilante costumes on a whim. burning sex trafficking operations to rumble and bones. the view of the stars following you as you make yourself a home after youve been rejected from everywhere else. taking a point off bc its icky how many writers i see that imply theyre only dating jason bc dick didnt work out. 9/10

Jaykyle (Jason/Kyle Rayner)

Don't know the most about this one, only from some truly spectacular fics out there. Enemies to lovers, 500k slowburn. kyle's gay awakening. donna is laughing at the both of them. kyle sketching jasons face absentmindedly. hundreds of sketches of jason littering his sketchbooks. jason reading as kyle draws. literature-art nerds unite. speaking spanish at home. brunch with kyles mom. 7/10

B*tc*st (Jason/Any Member of Batfam) or Jaytalia (Jason/Talia Al Ghul)

go away 😩😩😩 move to alabama or something. yes this includes jayb*bs -1000/10

Ask game not from an ask game, but could you ramble a bit on Jaida? I just kinda love her a lot and need someone as equally insane to talk about her.

ooohhhh Jaidaaaa !!!! im gonna have to put this under a read more bc its longgg and I could just go on about my beloved !!! also i wanna preface this by saying this is al over the place

I didn't watch s12 as it was airing [I hadn't watched s11 either, i stopped watching DR for a while] but I was still following all the ru girls from seasons I had watched, dr official accounts + dr meme accounts.. but anyway, as soon as the DR official IG page posted the 'swipe to see the s12 winner' and I swiped bc I am nosey even if by that point I had only known about the drama in the s12 cast.. but as soon as I saw Jaida it was love at first sight fr

I went to her IG and looked through all of her photos, she was so beautiful I had to watch drag race solely because of her.. I binge-watched s11 to get to s12 [dont ask me why, thats just my brain.. if I was gonna watch i had to be all caught up lmao] but I fell in love even more with her watching the season and all of her IG lives that'd been uploaded to youtube.

So ofc as someone who has been on tumblr for years and participated in the dr stan tumblr community from s8-as4?, I had to come back to my roots and created this sideblog.. I thought I'd find other ppl as obsessed with Jaida as I was but honestly.. at that time it was just me and a handful of others I quickly became mutuals with.. her tumblr tag wasn't as up to date/active so I would constantly be one of the few always reposting her stuff onto the tags.. pictures, videos from her performances, clips from lives, anything and everything bc people had to see how beautiful and funny she was. almost like i was determined for people to see what i saw in her eorngerif which might sound insane but anywayyyy

Getting back into reading dr fics was a bummer that she was mostly a background character but I get it from a shipping standpoint too.. it was all about crygi & jankie as those were the ships with the most content and traction. I would read fics because she was listed as a background character or halldoll was a bg ship even if I wasn't interested in crygi which was 9 times out of 10 the main story..

I could also get into a halldoll ramble but to not let this get longer than what it is, the few people that would write that ship are top tier, honestly. I do have a list of halldoll fic recs somewhere on this blog but those are the few people that in my opinion, capture jaida well and do her justice.

She's so gorgeous it's intimidating but she's one of the most silliest and charismatic bitches out there.. she's a sagittarius (one of the only good ones 😪) there are just so many things to love about her, and I think her personality shined more in as7 than it did in s12.. I mean that in a 'other fans finally realized that' type of way

also thanks for sending in this ask!

who would u say is most likely to eat their cum out of u (from like all ur faves from all groups or u can pick a group, up to u, i’m just being a slut rn and want to hear ur thots) i’d say from skz—jisung and hyunjin, maybe felix would too. atz would b yunho, yeosang probably. maybe also hongjoong bc i think he’s a fucking freak. svt would b hoshi 100%, will do it instantly without any hesitation once he pulls out. he doesn’t want a drop wasted and if u can’t hold it al in, he’ll eat that shit up and also dino

oh and also soobin ok i’m done

this list, YES! of skz—jisung is a top tier candidate for this. hyunjin too, and i’d argue felix and chan would be into it as well.

of ateez, oh MAN. i honestly, truly think they’re 8 for 8, when it comes to eating their cum out of you—but different ways, ya know? joong and mingi go crazy for it, and would do it every single time they cum in you, if you allow them to. tasting the mixture of ur cum together and being able to make you cum in their mouth again (when their cum starts gushing out of your cunt is your fave). yunho, san and wooyoung are fairly normal about it in comparison to the aforementioned. yunho sees eating his cum out of you as a romantic thing whereas san + wooyoung just love cum play. yeosang, seonghwa and jongho are a lot more teasing about it because they know you like it just as much as they do, but anytime they can get you to beg for it, they will.

with svt, i agree about hoshi (and very very intrigued by dino!) dare i also bring up seokmin who likes to hold your hands while he eats his cum out of you <3

yeonjun will def eat his cum out of you (and i’m not just saying that bc i’m biased) and i think beomie likes the taste of his own cum so do with that what you will 🙏🏾
