I know Dc has always proclaimed Tim Drake as the best detective and the smartest Robin and he is. By conventional measurements he is the best detective and he’s very smart but I wish they would acknowledge that each Robin is incredibly smart in their own way.

Dick Grayson is a master manipulator. He’s a genius when it comes to reading people and honestly whenever I need to write young him in fanfiction I literally just do Missy for Sheldon.

He’s smart. Book smart, but also people smart and people need to acknowledge this more it pains me to see DC forget this in exchange for a far more fannon. Far less complex version of him. He’s smart! Let him be smart.

Jason Todd is also book smart, though less mathematics and science and more classical literature. That man knows his way around the collections of Fyodor Dostoyevsky and that’s not even mentioning his street smarts.

He may not be the best conventional detective but he knows how to distinguish different gangs and their territories. He knows where dealers like to run their shops and he knows when a crime is too messy to have been caused by any of the rogues in the area.

Stephanie of course is a mix of the two. She’s good with people and she’s good on the streets but she’s also for very obvious reasons amazing at puzzles. Any tricky, seemingly impossible sort of quiz she’s got it, which is especially useful when the criminals of Gotham enjoy sending their hero’s on a wild goose chase.

She’s incredibly good at seeing through riddles and word vomit and she’s an amazing detective in her own right which should be used more.

Cass has been proven to be a great detective on so many occasions and of course do we even have to mention how adept she is at reading body language?

Her knowledge of combat is obviously unmatched and I’d love to see comics take this and apply it to her detective skills. How cool would it be for her to analyse a corpse and tell the fighting style of the assailant just by noting where on the body the strikes landed?

Realistic? No, but this is comics. Let me have my fun.

Damian was obviously trained in a dozen forms of martial arts, but he’s obviously knowledgeable about other things. The LoA are eco terrorists. You’re telling me that kid doesn’t know plants?

And that’s not even mentioning his knowledge of weapons and how he knows the ins and outs of organised crimes after living surrounded by it for a decade.

Plus his undercover skills.

Duke is new to me so I don’t know as much about him, but like Jason and Steph he grew up in the narrows and was part of gang, plus he apparently survived the riddler at like age 7 (pls don’t quote me on this I know practically nothing about zero year). So I can assume he’s incredibly intelligent. Street smarts! Also his powers let him look into the past which as evidenced in WFA can be used to help solve crimes.

Like I don’t want them to be conventional detectives. Let Tim be the Sherlock Holmes of the family. He’s already shown to be very observant.

I want to see more of the batfam using their own unique skill sets to solve crimes. They’re all good detectives they just have different ways of solving crimes.

Pls Dc, they would look so cool. If WFA can do it so can you! 😭😭

Warnings/Triggers: explicit detailed depiction of smut in a memory, lovie dovie softness, protective and mild possessive Ari showin’ up to wreck you. this isn't beta read, and most likely will read it over again to edit but wanted to put it out for ya'll to enjoy!

The cart wheels rattled along the road pavement as you walked into the store. You could feel some of the speculative stares already as you perused the vegetable aisle. 

Looking at some of the fresh veggie options, you could feel your heart thundering heavily and could feel the heat start to envelop your body underneath your clammy palms. Instinctively, you inhaled deeply to alleviate the tension building in your shoulders when you also start to hear the whispers. 

You were staring way too long as two identical pieces of squash when you felt the relief come in, “Should I give you three a moment alone?” 

Broken out of your dissociative gaze, you scoffed out a laugh while you turned and looked up to find Ari smirking at you. His frame towered over your significantly smaller one as your narrowed eyes met his affectionate glint. “No, you brute– we have concluded our meeting, thank you very much.” You teased back at him with a mocking smile. 

Ari only chuckled and put his burly hands on both of your shoulders and squeezed lightly. You could feel the tension slightly leave your body at his touch as you put your best pick of squash in the cart. 

Ari did his best to cheer you up whenever the both of you were out together. Even in the most mundane tasks, people seemed to still enjoy torturing you with their prying stares and gossiped whispers. Even though it's been two whole years since you started dating Ari, people still seemed to carry their weighted opinions about your relationship. 

The guilt that Ari carried for what happened at the mill has dissipated throughout the years– his feelings no longer diminishing your relationship together as you both worked it out a year ago. You tried to remind yourself that other people had no say or merit in the security of your relationship together. In all honesty, their judging natures have only helped you both grow closer together, never doubting each other’s feelings for the other. 

Classically, Ari’s protective nature only grew the more that he noticed the town’s critical disposition towards you in particular. He didn’t much care about their opinions of him, but when it came to you, he felt a heightened sense of defensiveness. 

You carried a light in his world that was unfamiliar to his own–he knew the significance of your presence in his life, he felt better and just good with you in his life. He would happily follow you to the depths of any sense of darkness. He understood that your sensitive nature has taken others’ criticisms more personally, but he also knew that he would never let anything come too close, or at least, close enough to jeopardize your relationship. 

You were a softness to protect, he cherished you, and utterly adored you. Ari would do anything to preserve that with you and in your shared life together. 

Not ignorant to the glances that people were extending towards your direction, he used his commanding physique to his advantage to narrow his gaze directly at those who were brave enough to send stares in the first place. Once they noticed his directive blaze, people would flush and scurry their grocery carts away in a masked hurry. 

Satisfied, Ari turned back to you and put an arm over your shoulder casually while placing a kiss on your hairline as you looked at him curiously. “Now, what’s next?”

Surprise bloomed in your thoughts as you noticed that the further you walked into the store, people seemed to deviate their intrusive stares away from you and Ari. Either you were getting good at avoiding them, or you were missing some sudden piece of information. 

Your thoughts were curious as you glanced over at Ari from the passenger seat. The breeze from the open windows graced soft wind through his locks, he looked so effortlessly relaxed and handsome. 

Eyes still pensive, you couldn’t help the small smile that grew upon your lips. 

Ari sensed your stare as he took a glance over at you before looking back at the road. Catching the inquiring glint in your eyes, he glanced back at you, “Everything okay, baby?”

Humming out an affirmative yes, you said simply, “You’re pretty.” A full smile graced your face at his typical responding grunt. 

You didn’t forget your earlier thoughts though and continued, “And you’re sneaky.”

Ari released his own slow hum this time that you quickly mimicked. “I don’t know what happened, but something did.”

He didn’t say anything even though you made your speculative tone obvious. He only gave you a soft smile and merely took his right hand off the wheel to extend an open palm. You narrowed your eyes at him again but took his invitation and put your hand in his. Once your palm met his, he gave you a gentle tug to pull you closer to him and you tucked yourself all small underneath his arm while resting your head on his shoulder. Ari’s calloused fingers stroked your exposed skin on your arm intimately while you both sat in silence the rest of the drive home. 

You knew how Ari oriented himself to shield you from the nosy outsiders scrutinizing your relationship. While you liked to think that you could handle it all on your own, you secretly enjoyed it when Ari protected you like this. There was just something about his guardedness that made you feel worshipped and cared for– on the flip side, it was also assertive and dominating. It was definitely dangerous, but that's what made him so alluring and even more attractive in your eyes.

Something told you that Ari knew that too. Your mind suddenly flashed back to last night– the room barely lit by the moonlight shining exposed through the curtain. Your legs bent over Ari’s broad shoulders which forced your legs open wider to accommodate for his weighted stature as he held you down for his gluttonous tongue that lapped and sucked at your soaking wet pussy eagerly, over and over again until you felt the day’s stress leave your body with each mind-numbing orgasm that he gave you. 

You cleared your throat as you felt your breathing shift momentarily, your body instinctively reacting to the memory as you fidget closer to him. It was like he knew what you were thinking as he released what sounded like a knowing hum at your movement and kissed your temple tenderly.

Finally reaching your shared house, you giggled as Ari took most of the grocery bags from the back of the car and ducked his head as he entered. The rest of the evening was spent cooking dinner together, a favorite pastime that the both of you loved to do. 

It was later when you were resting on the couch, both of you stretched out leisurely. You were unwinding from the day, already in your night clothes (you in your camisole and underwear and Ari wearing only sweatpants as you bullied him into being shirtless for the remainder of the night). Your legs entangled together with your head resting on Ari’s naked chest while he held you closer on top of him. He had one long arm wrapped around your waist while his other hand stroked and played with the back of your hair lazily. A calming and grounding feeling overtook your body at the sensation. Your favorite movie was on, but with Ari’s soothing touch and his soft heartbeat thudding underneath your ear, you could feel your eyelids getting heavier. 

A frown settled on your face when you felt a sudden weight and cooling feeling on your hand that was resting on Ari’s shoulder. Your sleepy eyes glanced up towards the limb and widened. 

There, resting on your left hand on your ring finger, was a simple silver band with a round stone just glimmering at you with how it shined underneath the warm light from the living room lamp. 

Not really registering what you were looking at, you rose up from your lazed position on Ari’s chest suddenly to pull your hand closer to your face. Almost as if you couldn’t get closer to it, you inspected the jewelry on your hand as if it was magic. Your shocked eyes met Ari’s equally sleepy and rested gaze as he took in your reaction humoredly. 

“Ari…what–,” you started with awe in your voice. Ari took your left hand away from your stunned face to bring it to his soft lips. Your breath hitched as he kissed the ring on your finger solidly.

“From the first day that I met you, I knew that I wanted you. To this day, even though I already have you, I still want you. But, I also need you.” Your eyes glittered with tears at listening to his affection-coated words. He would never really admit it, but his blue eyes also glittered with his own. 

“I love you. And, I think that you may need me too,” his deep-toned voice was rasp with desire as he continued, “if you’ll have me.” He placed another sincerely soft kiss on your ring finger and continued placing kisses up all over the inside of your wrist. 

His other hand wiped at the tear that fell and you grabbed his large hand before he could pull it away. There were so many things that you wanted to say but your voice locked in your throat. You took his large hand in your own to kiss his own ring finger softly with a whispered “yes.”

Ari’s mouth opened with his own gasp at the feeling of your plush lips on his skin. Hearing your tender response, Ari allowed his own gentle smile to grace his content faced expression as he pulled you down to clutch you desperately close to him. Pressing soft kisses on each other’s exposed skin periodically, you held each other for some time, your newly sparkled hand intertwined with his. 

A/N: AHHHH, their softness really just kills me. And the NEED argh, i wrote it and also dyin' from the sweetness of this drabble. pls let me know your thoughts, they are so welcome. <3 hope you enjoyed!

pls talk about homeschooling (genuinely interested)

so ok here’s the thing. i was a montessori kid who went on to receive a private progressive education through college. i think progressive education is wonderful and important. my dad was a montessori teacher and i spent four years working in education access inside an under-resourced high school (including pandemic years). the reason i mention this is that i do believe that mainstream education (both public and private schools) is failing kids and ultimately society. i have a lot of sympathy for parents who want a higher-caliber education for their kids and don’t know where to get it besides at home. one of my best friends was homeschooled because his parents (both professors) couldn’t find a school they were comfortable sending him to, and he turned out very intelligent and perfectly ok, if weird. i’ve also seen other positive examples of homeschooling, including a homeschool program at a nature preserve i worked at and homeschool that incorporates the occasional class at a local high school or community college or what have you. all this to say, i don’t think all motives for homeschooling are evil and i don’t think every single child who’s been homeschooled has been mistreated or denied positive social opportunities or whatever. however, all that said, even the best, highest-quality homeschooling should not be fucking legal.

after i was done working at a school, i went on to work at an organization serving unhoused youth and also teens in dcf custody, so i’ve seen a lot of shit, way more than enough to make me firmly believe that children are a uniquely vulnerable and marginalized population who are at high risk for exploitation. and the vast vast majority of exploitation and abuse happens inside the home. frankly you only need to meet one kid whose “homeschooling” was religious indoctrination designed to teach them to submit to their father raping them every night to be ready to burn the entire practice down. children are safest when they are part of the community, when they have access to multiple and varied points of view and responsible, caring adults representing those points of view. no child should ever be wholly at the mercy of their parents or any other single entity. it is simply not safe, and even if it were, it’s not healthy for a child’s cognitive development to only be exposed to one ideology, no matter how much or how little i agree with the particular ideology. part of healthy growth and development is the ability to integrate or discern different perspectives—it’s how you develop a bullshit detector, it’s how you learn to form your own opinions, and if you don’t build that skill in youth you are more susceptible to exploitation and indoctrination as an adult.

not all homeschool parents are fundamentalists who limit the perspectives their children can be exposed to. but the practice of homeschooling allows for this. the practice of homeschooling allows for abusive parents to lock their kids in cages and starve them and get away with it because there’s nobody to notice. any practice that provides a safe cover for the worst kind of abuse and exploitation is not a practice worth keeping, even if it does have the potential to work out well for a few kids.

the good news is that we actually already invented a way for children to get educated: it’s called school, and it exists free of charge in every community in the country. if you’re worried about the quality of your kids’ education, you can get involved! you can run for school board or join the pta/pto. you can also seek out or provide educational enrichment opportunities for your child that incorporate whatever you think they’re not getting at school. sunday school is a classic example of religious education supplementing school. my parents discussed current events with me, asked my opinion on things, shared theirs, and honestly answered my questions about other approaches/beliefs, and i learned a lot from that. even better than laying out enrichment opportunities for your kid, ask what THEY want to learn or feel like they’re not getting at school, and honor their autonomy by finding that for them or helping them find it. education does not begin and end at school, but it does not and cannot begin and end with parents either.

Platonic hcs for Adam Frankenstein and a gender neutral reader that befriends him? hope you’re having a great day btw!

platonic adam frankenstein hcs !

✧ warnings: some swearing

✧ additional info: oh my god i got so excited when i saw this request by all means pls send more for my classic monsters m.list and/or phantom of the opera (if you’ve seen it ofc) this made me so happy ur an angel. also can be read as either the book or movie versions <3

✧ m.list — nav.

so like

he’d probably be intimidated when u first come across him

like he doesn’t trust you but he isn’t going to hurt you because he doesn’t have a reason

you probably need to show him ur not gonna do anything before he stops trying to get away from u

and when that happens he’ll still be a bit suspicious

just start by introducing urself and explaining ur intentions and he’ll calm down

he finally introduces himself to u as gently as he can cause he doesn’t wanna like. scare u away ofc

once he gets comfortable he’s such a good friend

one of the first things he does is ask u abt ur life cause he feels like it’s important to know what ur friends lives are like (he’s right go check up on ur friends rn if ur reading this 😒)

he knows he can’t like stay with u (probably) and u can’t stay with him so he gets kinda sad when u leave

goodbye hugs absolutely happen!!

and he’s super gentle cause he’s really strong and could easily crush u

also def gives head pats

erm anyway

typa guy to walk into ur house like he lives there (if u live alone)

but if he doesn’t i feel like you would be going to wherever tf he is more than him coming to u

and he gets so happy if u just show up unexpectedly

like that shit makes him more happy than showing up on scheduled time

and if ur ever late cause u had a problem for someone else oh my god

a) u came to the right person because he’s very sweet and understanding and will listen to u and give input if u ask

b) he’ll stomp that mf like a bug if u want him too

c) his hugs are fucking amazing

he’s so good at comforting <3

other than that he’d probably know how to cook from living alone so he’d like making u food

even if u don’t ask he has something ready for u

and you WILL eat it or i’m gonna come after u 😒

would also randomly bring u gifts as a thank you for befriending him because now he isn’t as lonely and has someone to talk to! <3

the thought of him like getting all happy when u come through the door to see him is making me so happy and sad at the same time he’s such a cutie patootie

this one might take some time. but once he’s rlly rlly comfortable he’ll prob tell u abt what happened with victor

was mainly afraid of telling u cause he wasn’t sure how u would react

has so much more respect for u when u aren’t rude to him abt it <3

if u have any random drama bro is invested

“SHE DID WHAT” core

will think ur in the right literally no matter what

u could’ve done some shit scandalous and he’s defending u

u could probably help him come outside more cause he’d always be inside

just say to him “hey we should go for a walk!!” and with a bit of convincing ur suddenly outside in the woods on a walk

THE ANIMALS LOVE HIM SO MUCH

like it’s so cute he’s sitting on the ground trying to pay attention to 15 animals at once

even if he’s deformed they know hes rlly sweet and wouldn’t do anything to them

also he’d fucking love picnics

like just sitting there and listening to u talk abt whatever

he loves it <3

What do you think of PL Travers' criticisms on Andersen's writing on the Little Mermaid?

All I've read are her comments on the very end of the story. If she made any other comments, I don't know them.

As for her criticism of the last paragraph, I agree with her. I also dislike the fact that the Daughters of the Air have their time of trial lessened by a year each time they see a well-behaved child, but a day added for each tear they shed when they see a naughty child.

It's all too preachy in a classic 19th century way, and I agree with Travers that it's emotional blackmail for child readers. It's completely unnecessary too. It has nothing to do with the main themes of the story; in fact it arguably goes against one main theme. The Mermaid's failure to gain a soul by winning the Prince's love, only to to earn a second chance by self-sacrifice and be allowed to gain a soul by doing good deeds as a Daughter of the Air, sends the message that spiritual salvation can't depend on another person. That we have to earn it with our own virtue and good deeds. Part of why Andersen allegedly wrote the tale was as a deconstruction of Undine, because he disliked the concept of a sea nymph gaining a soul by marrying a human. Yet in the end, the Daughters of the Air do depend on others for their salvation, because children's good or bad behavior can shorten or extend their time on the earth plane before they're allowed into heaven.

It feels as if after writing a very personal story, with themes that resonate more with adults than with children, Andersen suddenly remembered that children were his target audience and tacked on a preachy, unconvincing message of "Be good, boys and girls, or the Little Mermaid will have to wait longer to go to heaven."

It's no wonder that even adaptations that keep the tale's original bittersweet ending tend to eliminate that part, and either have her rise straight to heaven or else de-Christianize the tale and just have her spend a happy eternity as a spirit guardian of young lovers.

Hi.... If you don't mind me asking, can I ask, what are your top 10 (or top 7) favorite media (can be books/ manga/ anime/movies/tv series/games/etc) and your top 10 favorite characters from any media ? Why do you love them? Sorry if you've answered this questions before or if I accidentally send this ask twice.....

Hi! Sorry I'm super super bad at managing my inbox but I am finally answering you, so sorry it took so long!! pls forgive me

as far as media goes, i dont have a rank order or anything really but here are 10 pieces of media i really enjoy:

i wouldnt say these are my top 10, but just some i really love

fruits basket (anime) - most ive ever cried watching anything. watched this during my last year of high school during the peak of college application season and it altered my brain chemistry forever. i will never be the same

assassination classroom (anime) - watched it in middle school and therefore formed a deep and unhealthy obsession with it, also karma is THAT BITCH. amazing show. also so like oddly sad

new girl (tv) - my favorite television show OF ALL TIME

how to get away with murder (tv) - my favorite televison drama show OF ALL TIME

always sunny (tv) - still watching this one but i LOVE it, shows about fucked up horrible people are my favorite, also i really love and admire their writing style and i really want to embody it on a show someday. definitely a huge writing inspiration for me

arrested development seasons 1-3 (tv) (i liked 4 and 5 but 1-3 are incredible) - again, a show about incredibly terrible people, and also really fucking funny in a weird way. and super clever. i love it

sherlock (tv) - i LOVE murder mysteries so so much. also theyre super gay which is fun

soul eater (anime) - my first anime ever, will love it forever

penguins of madagascar (movie) - i am unironically saying this, i am not fucking with you, this is my favorite animated movie

saturday night live (tv) - a classic. i haven't really traversed past the 21st century but i watch it every weekend without fail.

a special eleventh is A.P. Bio, amazing show never should've been cancelled. objectively i can completely understand why it was canceled bc there wasn't anything really objectively special about it, but by god do i love that show anyway. i rewatch it all the time

honorable mentions: on my block, sex education, the office, community, one day at a time (2017), how i met your mother, parks and rec, disney XD's lab rats (also unironically. great show.)

As for characters:

This is so so hard I've read/watched so so many things, I'm just gonna name the first ten freaks that pop into my head, but in no particular rank order and im definitely forgetting people:

bakugou (bnha) bc obviously. my entire blog is like a shrine to him. i don't need to justify this choice tbh he's the absolute best

chimney (911) he is SOOO me coded and he deserves the world and i think he's deeply underappreciated so i shall appreciate him myself. underappreciated comic relief characters my beloved

schmidt from new girl. my boy. my king. THE #1 MASTER OF CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT. i love him so so much

chandler from friends .... extremely self explanatory (also, see chimney. very similar reasons)

kyo (fruits basket) he means a lot to me. i wish him all the best in life although tbh he did canonically win in life so go him

connor walsh (how to get away with murder) i LOVE him. so much. he's so fucked up but i think hes done nothing wrong ever

death the kid (soul eater) LOVE OF MY LIFE. ABSOLUTE ICON

chang (community) maybe its just cause i love ken jeong but i love this little fucked up mentally ill freak. he's so fucking funny

phil dunphy (modern family) - no explanation needed. he's awesome. i love him a lot he gives me faith in family

every other main character in new girl. i love them all so much

honorable mentions: annalise keating (htgawm), ochako uraraka (bnha), bobby nash (911), dwight schrute (the office), and probably many many more amazing characters who i simply am forgetting

i also really fuck with the grandma from fresh off the boat

Hi I'm here to request (yet again) for akito this time with D, J, K, L and N pls!! Hope its not a burden, take your time to write this request of mine <333

Hello! Don't worry it's not a burden for me ^^ and thank you for requesting once again hehe, so I hope you enjoy <3

Akito D, J, K, L, N fluff alphabet

⊱ Distance ═ They are in long distance relationship. How do they act in it? Do they have any plans for meeting their lover?

Akito probably was bored one day and just decided to write with some people on some fandoms he liked, and that's how he met you.

Now you and Akito we're dating for some time but you realized that you live far away from each other! And he really wanted to visit you on the spot but unfortunately he couldn't. He would definitely send you small gifts and call you every day, somewhere around afternoon so you won't be tired but also could tell him about your day. He may not send you "good morning" and "goodnight" messages everyday but he does it once in a while, and just talks with you a lot the next time you call.

Akito tries his best to be able to visit you but his family doesn't really agree and he has RAD WEEKEND to beat with his group. So unfortunately it either takes a long of time or you will have to visit him yourself.

"I really wanted to visit you this vacations but I literally have no occasion for that! No, my family says it's waste of time... They're just stupid."

⊱ Jealousy ═ What makes them jealous? How easy it is to make them jealous? And how do they act?

Akito is extremely easily jealous! It's enough that you're smiling and laughing to some other guy. When he's jealous he's immediately at your side trying to take you away from someone that made him feel like it, but he won't make the reason why he does that obvious, well... that's what he thinks at least.

After Akito finally got you away from that person he starts realizing his excuse while taking you away wasn't that great so now he's doing his so you won't realize he's jealous. He will say something like "he forgot where it was or who it was" so you might as well spend some time together.

"Hey, YN, someone needs you... somewhere... C'mon let's go now."

⊱ Kisses ═ How does their kisses feel like? How often do they initiate them?

Akito loves giving you kisses on cheeks, forehead and end it with kiss on lips when you're cuddling, although he will only do that when you're in private. He doesn't mind telling and maybe even showing other people you're together but something like kissing just seems like it should be saved for private.

The only kisses Akito would give you in public are quick smooches on your cheek as "hello" or "goodbye", he mostly does it because he doesn't want to get teased but also because he knows he will blush like crazy after anything more passionate.

"Why I won't kiss you in public like I do in private? Because it's enough for me that Ena teases me when you're gone. I don't need An to also have this fun."

⊱ Lazy ═ How do they spend lazy days with their lover?

Lazy dates with Akito actually are very often for you two. It's actually classic date for you to just be cuddled into each other while maybe watching some movie or just enjoying the moment, sure outside dates also happen but they're less common.

Whenever you visit Shinonomes house, everyone know that two lovers will have their lazy date... again. But everyone loves your company there! But Akito can be a little protective even towards his family. When he has lazy date with you, it's JUST you two and if someone ekhem Ena will interrupt your alone time, he will probably yell at them or just genuinely be mean

But on lazy dates Akito is the sweetest boy! You didn't even knew he had this side of him before you started dating him, and once Ena walked up on him being all sweet towards you and secretly recorded it. But it's your secret! For now... But going back: Akito will always want to have you close and rest his chin on top of your head, no matter the height since you two will lay in bed, sometimes he'll even play with your hair if he's tired!

"You have very soft hair, you knew that? I told you it previous week? So what? I'll say it the next too."

⊱ Nickname ═ How do they call you? Where did they took this idea from?

Akito was simply calling you "YN" since there was no need for him to call you anything else. But one day Ena asked him what nickname you call each other and when he said none she was stunned. So for the sake of having peace he decided to just say the first thing that popped into his mind and said he calls you "babe", and she laughed him off because it's basic...

But after that Akito actually really liked that nickname and started calling you like that for real. He didn't understood all this "nickname couple thing" but once he starts using nicknames with you, he's in love. He just likes to call you like that because it remind him that you're his partner and he's yours.

"Hey babe, how was your way here? No, no problems. Except Ena laughed from my nickname for you again... but I got used to it by now."

LIKE SEA ANGELS???? AND LION FISH??? DON'T GET ME STARTED ON JELLYFISH AND SHARKS CHAT. I could rant for hourrs about Marine life, also like coral is so pretty. . .I honestly think people should start caring more about the environment !!!! To keep beautiful things like this alive !!! (If you want to infodump by all means this is an invitation hehe. . .)

Another hyperfixation of mine is Astronomy. . .sighs. . .if I were to talk about astronomy I fear I wouldn't be able to send this ask because it would just be too long. . .tumblr is such a hater

and then butterflies and castles . . .I really like castles, um

Butterflies though !!! They are great, I find it silly that a lot of the Morpho butterflies are named after Greek myth. Like the Morpho menalaus, the Morpho achillies, and Morpho Telemachus.

I also really like fairy tales, classical literature, vampires. . .sighs, vampires

PLS FEEL FREE TO RANT ABOUT ANY OF YOUR INTERESTS OR HYPERFIXATIONS PLEASE THAT WOULD BE GREAT ACTUALLY, I RUN OFF OF INFO DUMPS

HELP ME?!?!??!?!?! CRAZY ANALOGY

HELL YESSSSSSS god all those games are iconic.... i'll be so honest i haven't played many nintendo games, i only got a switch this year LMAOOO and i've only played pokemon + splatoon 2.... i love kirby with all my heart though i have a little squeaky toy of him in my room and he is poyo poyoing all over the place

i mean i've watched some nintendo gameplay videos but none of those games.... sorry

most games i've been able to play are on the phone .... bc i'm not that good at playing on my computer (cause i draw instead so i have to drag myself away)

GODDD!!! I LOVE MARINE BIOLOGYYY it was so intense in junior year that i wanted to become a marine bio major (it's such an odd choice considering my first major is business marketing....?) but we ball tbh i'd still like to take a course in it

HGNGNGHGGH I FUCKING LOVE JELLYFISH YOU HAVE NOOOO IDEA!!!! the lampocteis and moon jellies are my absolute favorites, comb jellies are peak and so are moon jellies

honestly i'm really lucky i can travel a lot bc i get to go to so many aqauriums. we fucking ball. like everytime i go to an aquarium i take five million pictures LOLLL like its a problem lmfao!!!!! (like i went to a aquarium in tokyo and it was baller)

outside of jellyfish my favorite is orcas, whales, and other deep sea animals. fuck i love them so much. (i call orcas assholes all the time because they are but i love them for it) smth smth moby dick being 50% whale facts only fed into the marine bio fixation

sea slugs are awesome too. look at those sluggos go eating sponges and becoming poisonous as a result. oh i also love sphinophores (hi portuguese man o' war) they're awesome

i rarely get to make things about my marine bio interest... but while playing webfishing i almost exclusively fish out at sea and i bother my friends about fun facts all the time

HONESTLY? TRUE. that's kinda the main way to get ppl to care lol make it about little guys that are cute and don't you want them to be alive instead of dead?

coral bleaching is such a insane problem man....... make sure you pay attention to what sunscreen you're using!!!!!!!!

AHHH ASTRONOMY..... i used to be really into it when i was younger but erm. it kinda died after awhile and i'm hesitant to get back into it after an incident lol... i still love the planets tho (thank you sailor moon you are the source of many awakenings for me)

castles are awesome i'm ngl.....

OHHH!!! I DIDN'T KNOW THAT ABOUT BUTTERFLIES THAT'S SO COOL ACTUALLY... AND REALLY ICONIC ONES TOO THAT'S CRAZYYYY

its actually so cool that scientific names for animals are named after greek heroes its so cool. like the genus and family name for albatrosses are named after diomedes and i was like HOLY SHIT!!!!!

HELL YESS FAIRY TALES AND CLASSIC LIT!!!! those are so peak (i love fairy tales and ballets with a burning passion. they're awesome. i need every adaptation of a fairy tale IN MY VEINS. NOW.)

oghghgh i really love metro systems. i love how color coordinated they are and how they're genuinely the best kind of public transportation there is, its so cool... also the aesthetics are so good.

i also really love pop art (i'm from new york can you tell) GENUINELY SUCH AN AWESOME MOVEMENT AGAINST WHAT IS AND ISN'T CONSIDERED ART!!!! GOING AGAINST ALL STANDARDS AND QUALIFICATIONS!!!! also i just love bright colors and tone dots lmfao.... (i'm not the biggest fan of abstract art but pop art just hits diff)

[xxswagcorexx]

as the resident (only) swagdoons poster of tumblr do you have any writing/fanfic recs? stuff you've read and stuck with you or had interesting premises or whatever

SORRY FOR TAKING A BIT ANON i was. Away. but im back now! im gonna assume you're looking for mostly swagdoons-centric fics (but if you want another fic rec list involving other cc's, feel free to send another ask :D)

anyways. im going to give a quick synopsis of each fics, content warnings/heads up, and if the fic is platonic/romantic/some secret 3rd thing. also if any fic authors are reading this, pls don't take these recs personally!! ^^ its just a matter of personal preference !!!!

anyways that's enough beating around the bush . let's get into the recs!

smoke and mirrors to set the world aflame by Anonymous/eventide

ah yes, a classic (to me) but it's a goodie! a fic about crime lord!ash holding ceo!red for random. even though red is Literally being held hostage, he still manages to spin the situation around into a business deal. wonderful fic if you enjoy swagdoons fics with power dynamics (both of them have more power than the other somehow. crazy). this is romantic, although there is no kissing! ^^

cws for: implied murder/assassination, russian roulette/guns (dw no one dies), hostage situations/kidnapping, a brief mention of donturnt, power dynamics, and generally what you expect from a mafia au . if u don't like that, feel free to skip!

hide-and-seek with tied eyes by Felix_J

vampire!ash has a hit put on him, and hitman!red is sent to kill him. issue is, red and ash have a fling together, and red learns some... unnerving information about ash's job. don't worry, they talk it out. sorta. if you enjoy fics with a hint of urban fantasy and Convoulted relationships because of circumstance, this one is for you! (in general, a lot of felix's work is like this, so if you enjoy this fic, i recommend checking xe's other works out! ^^) this is romantic, but there is no kissing (although their fling is explicitly stated)

cws for: a hit being put out on someone, mentions of past murder, government corruption, and dubious morals/what you expect from a hitman/mafia au. if u don't vibe w that, feel free to skip!! ^^

nightmares (and a god is waiting in the next room) by stillłifewithsaxifrage

an scp au with researcher!red and reality bender!ash (which. if you're like me and don't know about scp, is like. fucked up eldrich horror!ash. dw you don't need to know abt scp to read this fic). basically the fic is about red waking up, and realizing is deeply, deeply wrong. reality warps around him as he tries to find ash, with little flashbacks of the two of them sprinkled in between. if you love surrealist imagery and horror-eques fics, this one is for you! this is romantic, with kissing and even a marriage proposal

cws for: unreality (like. reality is actively being warped in this fic), horror, a bathtub of blood (dw there's no gore/injury), like. 1 mention of sex as a joke, donturnt as a side character, and general trauma from working at a government agency. if that doesn't sit right with you, feel free to skip! ^^

all the roads led to you by Anonymous/np13

ah yes. another classic (to me). a reincarnation au where zombie apocalypse!swagdoons reunite in another life in the modern world. you get 2 narratives in this one, both the zombie apocalypse and the modern au are woven together, so beware of that if you're confused why settings change. if you love worldbuilding/vivid imagery with a dash of good vibes to. heal you from the Trauma (and also underlying themes of trust in someone who you've been through hell and back with), this fic is for you! this fic can be read either platonically or romantically as they are very intimate/engage in physical contact a lot

cws: unreality (i guess?? does switching in between. 2 different realities count), death, implied suicide, injury, implied cannibalism, pretty. existential themes about death, and so so much trauma from watching your friends slowly turn into zombies. if that's 2 much, feel free to skip! ^^

too late by treacherouna

a modern au fic where ash is up late, and hears a knock at his door. when he goes to answer it, it's red. issue is that they broke up and red moved out. if you love Lingering feelings and confronting those feelings and tenderness, this one is for you! this fic is romantic, with explicit descriptions of their relationship

cw: drunkenness and implied alcoholism

show me that you're Goliath and i will play David by Anonymous

love s4 swagdoons? this one is for you. this fic is about god!ash trying to impress red, and red increasing the stakes. really good imagery in this fic :D this fic is romantic and the entire fic is about them kissing with power dynamics. so like. if you like that this is up ur alley

cw: totem popping, lighting, red intentionally putting himself in danger (but this is like. explicitly in mc and it's just health going down), and power dynamics

game theory by Anonymous

a character study about swagdoons and trust and loyalty. if you loved spilt or steal/the prisoners dilemma in boosfer's "one of them is lying" video, this fic explores exactly just that. this fic is romantic, but there is no kissing, just descriptions of ash sleeping at red's base sometimes and red cutting his sleeve off (which is a euphemism for mlm relationships)

cws: none that i can think of

(also if you're interested in that concept, hand grips hand by Felix_J explores the same concept. cws for death (in a video game)

Dark outside, a moonlit night by BearAndHoney

ash and red have an argument. this fic is mostly about losing someone and making your life better/learning how to heal as a result. this fic is romantic, with ash and red living with each other as romantic partners

cws (taking this from the start of the fic): major character death, drug use/drug addiction, implied underage drug use/drug addiction, alcoholism, drug overdose/misuse, vomiting, blacking out, death, very minorly implied eating struggles/disordered eating

you and me by Anonymous

ash puts his cigarettes out on red, and red lets him do it. if you like unhleathy swagdoons, this one is for you. this fic is romantic

cws: cigarettes, cigarette burns, unhealthy relationships

and how here's some other fics that stuck with me because they're sweet and capture swagdoons' dynamic well:

Stay a little longer? by 13001

a fic about vampire!ash and politician!red. ash drinks red's blood and forces him to eat and get some rest, and they cuddle and kiss while that happens. this fic is romantic.

cws: vampire blood drinking and passing out

away from the winds by Anonymous/np13

a fic about ash and red taking a ferry to the mainland (they live on an island). this fic can be read either platonically or romantically as they are very intimate/engage in physical contact a lot

cws: none that i can think of

(oh,) to be a comfort by Felix_J

earthbound! ash and earthbound!red meet by the lake and red purposes to ash. very sweet if you love that kind of stuff :) this fic is romantic for obvious reasons

cws: none that i can think of

and some extra ones that don't have swagdoons as the main focus, but i think are nice anyways:

farewell to the port by Anonymous

a pirate au with lots of lifesteal members involved! this fic is mostly platonic, although that's because it's pre slash.

cws: almost drowning, blood, violence, public execution, and explosions

la petite mort by whichlights

THE TITLE ISN'T WHAT YOU THINK OF I SWEAR but a crime au where branzy is a cilvian and somehow crosses paths with clownperice, a hitman in the criminal world.

cws: temporary character death, violence, guns, shooting, hits being put on people, murder, medical procedures, and recovering from medical procedures

and reminder for all of thse fics, if one of the cws might be an issue for you, its perfectly ok to skip the parts where they show up or the fic all together! ^^ stay safe and happy reading <3

[koinotame]

\o/

hi! it's me, nana / koinotame!

if you're wondering why i went inactive and then deleted, my mental health kind of (really) tanked... and i ended up deleting my blog in a fit.

it's getting better bit by bit though! and i've been wanting to get back into writing (and talking abt my unhinged/yan ideas i can't really talk to anyone else abt), so. here i am! for now, at least

as for my previously posted writing, there's some good news and some bad news: the bad news is that everything i wrote directly into tumblr (99% of snippets, a lot of ask answers, most exact content warnings, etc) is gone. the slightly less bad news is that iirc there were very very few posts of mine that weren't reblogged by anyone at all, so they're probably still out there? feel free to send them my way if you find any and i'll rb them. @/midnight-remembrance also has reblogged a couple of them! there's a couple snippets i have saved in some places, so i might repost those on my own as i find them, but there's very few of those. the good news is that anything longer (proper writing — oneshots, hcs, yan alphabet responses and so on, prompt responses, etc) is safely backed up where i originally wrote it! some of it is also on my ao3, which is the same username. feel free to send me asks about any you'd like to see again and i'll repost them! i might not post them if i feel too embarrassed about/wish i hadn't posted them, and i might rewrite/heavily edit some of them, but i think there's only a handful that fall into the former category and none of them were particularly popular. either way, no harm in asking!

as for some other updates: i'm a little divided on whether i want to keep posting explicit nsfw or not so we'll see. i might just keep it out of main tags. idk yet. regardless of what decision i make, this blog is still strictly 18+ and that will not be changing. since we can reply from sideblogs now, this is a sideblog and not my main now. why? sometimes i prefer to check up on a blog frequently instead of following them for a couple of reasons, but this felt very awkward when they were following me. so this being a sideblog relieves a bit of that stress. if this makes it sound like i have severe brain worms, it's because i do. to that effect though, if we interact every so often feel free to consider us mutuals regardless of whether or not i'm actually following you =w=b tbh i.............. am not really into genshin anymore. i might post about it here and there but i just Do Not (really) Care about it anymore. scara aside to some degree i also have no clue what's going on post inazuma lol whatever projects or commitments to writing or etc i had made beforehand. i forgot all of them so just pretend that never happened ok? ok i'll also probably be posting more sparsely, but we'll see! and (this is obviously the most important bit) i have no clue where i put the mika edit so we're back to my og classic pfp. the header scales terribly and is temporary, please ignore that too

all that aside, as a treat for anyone who sees this in time,

*roughly 6/22 done, but fairly quick to write. roughly one paragraph per character (sneak peek line: "it's not too hard to be discreet with his unique magic when someone really deserves to fall face down a flight of stairs. or three. oopsie. odd they don't remember it, huh? well, he had nothing to do with that.") **more realistic isn't quite the right word(s)... probably won't post this one to the main tags regardless. won't be doing all of the characters (only important/relevant ones) and won't be writing more about/expanding on, so this one is just like. a one off experiment sort of thing. overall less violent than most takes on the au + leans a bit (or lot, depending on how you look at it) more on the religious aspect of self aware aus. i wrote a couple paragraphs a while ago, then rewrote them, but i'll only finish/post them if there's interest for it (sneak peek line: "aether has deluded himself and cast You aside entirely on his own—and when You finally grace them with Your real presence, zhongli is certain aether will be the first to fall from Your grace.")

i have one other new thing immediately ready for posting that'll get posted in a couple of days but that one's pretty silly

[lupinus-bicolor]

Good ol Optimus prime flower pls

g1 optimus has major Helianthus annuus vibes because he's just A Dad. i love him. H. annuus is an important source of food for pollinators and birds in north america, and has been used as a food crop for centuries. It's many many uses and its enormous stature along with its cheerful face somehow just remind me of g1 Optimus :)

TFP, HOWEVER-

tfp Optimus i struggle with placing a definitive flower on because there's really so many facets to their characterization BUT i settled on royal purple Delphinium sp. for leadership and strength in the face of adversity. Its tall stature and careful cultivation by gardeners lend it an almost untouchable quality that almost makes you wonder if it's real. I also chose Magnolia grandiflora for wisdom and dignity; it's also one of the oldest lineages of angiosperms on earth, and even though Optimus isn't super old compared to other bots, with the matrix he really gives off the vibe. I'd probably add rue and asphodel for a classical touch of regret and sorrow to this :')

ALSO i know Optimus Primal is a totally different guy but I'm including him here because I just finished Beast Wars and it's unexpectedly endearing. Here's OP with Narcissus sp. because of that one episode where Dinobot left him flowers (daffodil lookalikes). They're used to symbolize new beginnings, optimism, and new love.

These blurbs are a little less scientific than my usual ones but I wanted to lean into the symbolism a little more here. If you have any more character/flower requests send them my way! :D

[irritablepoe]

WAIT IM ALSO CURIOUS is there any poetry or maybe a poetry collection you really like??? IT JUST ENTERED MY MIND WHILE I WAS USING MY LIT BLOG PLS FEEL FREE TO IGNORE HSUWHSUWHS

THANK YOU FOR ASKING TOBI AND I'M SO SORRY I TOOK SO LONG! i was thinking which i would pick as favs and then i went to reread them all and then i forgot about this and then i reread them again💀 anyways, i made a short list and wrote a lil bit of why i like it ig?

sooooo, i only have 5 collections:

rachel oates: reflections on healing

the poems of nakahara chuuya

kurt tucholsky: zwischen gestern und morgen (verbatim translation: between yesterday and tomorrow)

berklie novak-stolz: lazarus rises (amongst other things) (idk if you know her from tt maybe, she's really cool and does fandom stuff!)

the poems of edgar allan poe

i have other online books as well but these are like collected works from multiple mostly german poets yk :3

ok i'm probably forgetting so many poems but i'll try to list as many as i can that i really like (a few will be german tho and idk how to translate them really but i'll try if i use direct quotes)

Herr von Ribbeck auf Ribbeck im Havelland - Fontane: someone will hit me for this bc it's such a silly poem about a dude that has a pear tree and on his death bed he says to lay a pear into his grave and ofc a pear tree grows out of it and continues his tradition of giving away pears. and idk it's such a nice thing to think about like your good actions can be carried on after death? it's very nice

The Haunted palace - Poe: reminds me so much of that one short story i wrote in which i personify the house, otherwise i just love poe's flowiness in his poems so so much

continuing with Poe - The city in the sea: oof such feeling of doom, it cannot be compared

A dream within a dream -Poe: there's a reason this is my header, idk why it scratches my brain so much

The Raven - Poe: i don't think i have to explain that one it's just a classic

just like Annabel Lee -Poe, god i'm in love with this poem

Zum Lazarus - Heine: reminds me of Ivan Karamazov, i don't think i can explain it well but it's kind of a criticism of guessing and hypothesizing in regards to god when we don't know what he's up to?

Sonnet 112 - Shakespeare: i'm sorry, but i might as well be frothing at the mouth at "you are so strongly in my purpose bred, that all the world besides methinks are dead"

same with sonnet 139 - Shakespeare

shakespeare in general ig?

(in the collection:) XXIII - Berklie novak-stolz: i mean "hope is a feathered thing i thought to be lost" COME ON!!

III - Berklie novak-stolz: "these words must be pried from my teeth" again. i have no words.

shame - nakahara chuuya: "why, oh why, this shame?" sfskdfhksdhk at this point i can't be coherent anymore i suppose; i've not read many of his works yet but i'm excited to read them

Loreley - Heine: captain is so mesmerized by a woman he sends his ship into the ocean; a classic, very nice, very enjoyable read

der spinnerin nachtlied - brentano (translation: the spinners (?) lullaby)

goethe and schiller are ofc very good poets but idk i haven't been hit in the face by them yk (at least not yet? or maybe school has made me immune to their writings idk, i did like faust a lot tho)

die brück' am tay - fontane

fontane in general has made some nice poems but i'm a bit traumatized by john maynard, like yeah good hero man and stuff but i can't take this serious anymore when i still hear my classmates and me singing that poem

elizabeth barrett browning!! probably especially "my heart and i", i've not read much of hers tho

okay that's like a good overview of what i like :3 again, sorry it took so long and this isn't nearly as long as i'd hoped it to be, but maybe i remember a poem or two later on that i've forgot to mention?

now i wanna know what yours are tho, if you have any👀

[lunahuntwriting]

I NEED ADVICE FOR A NEW JEGULUS FIC I’M OUTLINING!!!

…. don’t hate me. the next chapter of glimpses is actually coming along very quickly my brain just can’t focus on one thing at once i’m sorry. i’ve said before that me outlining another fic or working on another one doesn’t take time from the ones i’m already writing, if anything it helps me write faster bc writing other things always gives me ideas for the fics i’m stuck on.

ANYWAY! The idea…. the black family has a very famous reality tv show, james is the nepo baby child of two very famous actors! all your other fav characters will be involved too i promise. the setting is london tho, not hollywood.

it will be a primarily jegulus fic but with lots of other perspectives and pairings too

okay so think of the black’s like the kardahsian’s, but less insufferable and more entertaining. walburga and orion are the classic fame obsessed parents casually exploiting their kids. bellatrix and cissa are on the show too bc why not. reg is obviously on the show, but my question is should sirius be????

i see the arc for all the other characters really clearly, but i’m unsure w sirius. he and james will be best friends (they will also all be in their early 20’s), but i can’t decide if sirius should have cut ties with the family completely and be doing his own thing or if he should be like reluctantly still on the family show.

i know it’s kind of a small detail but i’m stuck on it for some reason soooo please reply to this or send me a message with any thoughts / ideas!!!

(if you guys have any other ideas or things you’d like to see in this fic pls feel free to reply or message them to me as well!!!!) i will probably be writing a good chunk of this fic before i post it.

thank u all in advance for the advice xoxoxo

[oh-phineas]

Saturday, November 30 — SWYNRP Character Wishlist: A list of 10+ characters you’d like to see in the RP (for you to play or someone else!) 

I probably won't get any characters any time soon, even 9 is a lot for me and honestly I feel pretty good with the stories I'm already focusing on. But here's stuff that's been bouncing around my brain.

First up: Timon and Pumbaa!

I love these guys because they're comic relief but I also think there's something a bit sadder going on with them under the surface. "When the world turns its back on you, you turn your back on the world!"

I like the idea of them as misfits who fled somewhere less Magick-friendly because of their magic (uhh open to interpretation) maybe they're on sort of a crazy road trip situation or something and their car broke down in Swynlake and they go on a journey of realizing this is where they want to belong.

FCs! They should be comedians!!!

Timon: Jaboukie Young-White

Pumbaa: Kenan Thompson

Next: Kiki Takayama!

I don't think I'll get Kiki because the way I'd do her story would probably be kind of similar to Mirabel but tbh maybe someday if I did want to get into sorcery. But I just love her I love her story! Witch on her own for the first time, discovers burnout, magic as a metaphor for creative block, I just love it. I don't have a FC tbh but there are probably so many.

Next: Alisha Hawthorne!

Between recently reading Project Hail Mary and The Space Gal going up in space, having a lot of thoughts about astronauts lately. Imagine closing this character by sending her to SPACE. much to consider.

FC: Issa Rae!

Ok next... pls bring me the love story for the ages... FLO AND RAMONE! FLAMONE!

God they are just so slay... imagining Flo as this sort of all-over-the-place creative genius and Ramone as the man who loves her unconditionally, they're so classically cool with Flo's vintage style and Ramone's tattoos, they go out and Flo is making friends like crazy and Ramone is just like ya that's my wife... also more tattoo artists for Sunburst!!! Yes pls!

FCs: Flo - Keke Palmer!

Ramone: I don't have a FC in mind but trust me he would slay.

Okay next... DARLA!!

Bee's task inspired this because rlly I think something that is super important to merpeople's stories is that there ARE a lot of people who mean them ill or actually don't mean them ill but still have no respect for them or their right to live their lives. I think there could be something cool here with like parasocial relationships or something idk. Bring Darla!!!

FC: Shannon Purser

Next... HANK!

I love Hank. I love all of Finding Nemo. Who doesn't love a grouch with a heart of gold? Maybe even... retired RAS agent? Idk rewatch Finding Dory and try and tell me he hasn't charmed you

FC: Colman Domingo bring him plzzz

Additionally... MULAN!

My gym did a "favorite disney princess" poll the other day and because it is a gym the winner was Mulan. I always want to see more #jocks, hit me up for highly competitive backstories etc. I just think Mulan totally slays and we already have Shang and Mushu and the Mulan 2 crew so!!!

FC: Sabrina Wu

And finally... ABBY MALLARD!

I love Abby from Chicken Little. I love a misfit who doesn't care what anyone thinks and marches to the beat of their own drum. The karaoke scene in this movie is unparalleled. Selfishly would love for someone to bring her to the psychology department at Pride U or maybe Jiminy Cricket's office, maybe she wants to be a school counselor!

No FC idea because tbh I think FC-less is the way to go here?

Anyway those are my ideas! Yay finished Wrimo!

[messedupessy]

Ok so I really just want to talk a bit about the Indigo disk dlc for a moment, as I finished the main story of it last night and I got allot of thoughts, so spoilers down below under the cut!

So firstly I enjoyed it allot, been sick off my ass with a massive cold and this dlc been the only thing keeping me sane, but the characters been so much fun, the new places to run around and hunt pokemon were so good, new mons been good, and the overall story was great! But, unless I have missed something as I haven't done the after stuff yet I only talked with Briar and gotten her book, but I feel there is just something missing with the last parts of the story even though I still loved it. The biggest thing I truly feel was such a missed opportunity was Briar, firstly she didn't appear in the whole dlc until you beaten Keiran, and I truly felt and believed she would end up been evil as she just kept on looking classically evil with her expressions and behavior and disregard for others safety and invading others personal shit, but instead it's just "hoho i'm so silly I let my obsession take a hold of me, and now I have learnt my lesson to handle it better!", like what was that? I truly felt through the whole part when i played through the lowest part of area zero that she was going to turn on my character and the other two at any time, but no nothing of the like happened and it was just, just weird and such a missed opportunity as now I feel her whole character just falls flat and is doing a Sonya from Sword & Shield where she gives you her book, she is supposed to be the descendant of Heath give us something more please.

Also Geeta why the fuck did she send just the MC and two kids with 1 teacher into the depths like I know we can defend ourselves but lady pls! Also I want to know more about her she still shady af herself!

I wanted to talk about Keiran too, but I don't know what to say except I liked what was going on with him for the most part, I was kinda expecting that it would turn out he was been possessed by that new purple pokemon I seen floating around or something, since that boy was behaving pretty fucking deranged through the whole dlc and it just really felt like something was possessing him, but who knows I might have missed something since I haven't done any of the after stuff just yet, but I was kinda sure that was going to be the case and that it was why he was called into the classroom with MC and the others that they had found something off about him or something. Like that the pokemon was amplifying his feelings to the extremes and making him do things he like did want to do but usually wouldn't, but who knows I have to do some of the other stuff and see if anything will come up. We also did not get any like answers properly to what the paradox pokemons are, I still believe very strongly that they are imagined up beings and not from the future or the past, they are not real creatures but made up by peoples imaginations or by Terapogos however you spelt it, I still think that since everything points to it but there is no proper answer that I have seen to it been so yet. I really want to know what is going on and the whole trip down deeper into area zero just have given me more questions. And the whole dlc also just made me miss Nemona, Penny and Arven so much, think I saw some spoiler about Arven been part of something thanks to a dumb thumbnail on a video I glanced over earlier, but other than that I don't know if they will appear or not and I just miss them, wish we had gotten some banter between Briar, Carmine and Keiran while we went down into area zero, but I also get why that didn't happen as there were way more places for those characters to fall down as fuck there so yeah, sad. Also speaking of Carmine, I love that girl she a fucking mess, but I truly do hope she will be nicer to Keiran now and that he will stand up to himself when she gets too much, it made me really glad when both of them burst into tears at the end there as that's good she was so worried about him and his obsession, but I just hope she chills out when it comes to him as she was part of the issue there which he yelled at her that she was which i so loved, but I just hope it will actually show when they interact in the future. And that's all for now, might reblog this later on and add some more stuff as I just need to get these thoughts out, got no one to talk about them with so you who reads this will have to do xD but I do feel the whole "what is up with tera energy and what is paradox pokemon" still have not been answered, and I desperately want them to be answered!
