#and I've never once gotten why that is

[tobi-smp]

I've said it before, but genuinely there has never been a normal c!tommy critical discussion in the entire world. people Cannot frame tommy in any sort of negative light without saying the most out of pocket, victim blaming, abuse apologizing, or ableist shit you've ever seen for absolutely no reason.

it was true in 2020 and it's Still true today ! it's so Bizarre, because it's not even like you Can't frame any of tommy's actions as harmful (or at least in a negative light) without being weird about it. you can even Like Him and do it ! lots of dsmp characters get that treatment in the right spaces

but something about tomathy innit makes that just Impossible. you just can't criticize him without saying the worst thing that's ever been said.

as a wise tumblr user once said, tommy neg? why don't you tommy ne-get some bitches

Rereading Young Justice 1998 and I always forget that there's an arc where, in order to escape government agents trying to capture them, they use their magic sentient motorcycle to phase down into the earth's crust

and while they're down there they find a strange dark cavernous space filled with flames and lava and tiny demons that feed on suffering, and also there are disco balls and people wearing bellbottoms

and Robin recognizes everyone there as scumbags and murderers that he's investigated or heard of at one time or another

and it's all run by a guy named Dante, because this is his (disco) Inferno

and the joke is, of course, that Hell looks like the 70s (and/or the 70s are worse than hell)

EXCEPT

it's literally not hell

Dante is just SOME GUY who FOUND A CAVE filled with FLAMES AND LAVA and TINY DEMONS that FEED ON SUFFERING!!

literally just some guy! Who went "Man, y'know what would be neat? If I kidnapped CEOs and murderers, tricked them into thinking they died, and set up a 70s themed prison for them. And told them it was Hell! And fed their suffering to all these tiny demons!"

and then stole all the CEOs' assets in order to finance his underground 70s-themed fake-hell prison where he feeds the prisoners' suffering to his tiny demons

"their relationship is romantic" "their relationship is familial" "their relationship is platonic" you're thinking too narrow. their relationship goes beyond labels. the family is inherently queer. their platonic love is romantic. the erotic is familial. each one is the other and the other is them

One thing I really wish the FF Community would Stop doing is Removing All Nuance from the Parents in Those Stories in order to Make Them Abusive Supervillains who Never Loved their Kid.

Like... In the Four Years I've been here, and for how Small the Community really is, you'd be surprised how many Times I've seen it-

Looks like I just lost another close friend to guy who isn't worth a pile of dog shit. 😊

Jacket!!!! Ye olde varsity I got at the very beginning of my transition thinking "Oh fuck yes I am going to pass so hard in this" and. Well. It never worked I just have never passed a day in my life I don't think 😔 Eventually it just became a beloved test subject and has since gone through a bit of a transition itself LMFAOO

Some Notes:

> A lot of the decorations are taken from old backpacks I loved dearly that got absolutely fucking destroyed by the weight of all the shit I'd lug around in highschool LMFAO (sketchbook, diary, all kinds of notebooks...). Never had the heart to get rid of them. Specifically: The pink zippers, the holographic pockets, the glow in the dark stars, and the holo angel wings!

> The pink/blue checkers are from a small decorative quilt I thrifted years ago, I wouldn't be surprised if it was handmade (it's super soft material, btw! Important LMAO). I only took out one line of squares, I plan on stitching the rest of it back together (haven't done it yet though LMFAO). The reason for this was to upsize the jacket, so I can button it without it clinging. The pockets were added for funsies ESP cause it lined up very well and aren't really practical LMFAO (BUT YOU CAN PUT THINGS IN THEM! If you want!! 🎉🎉🎉)

> The patches (esp the name/pronouns one) were the first additions actually. Eventually more and more things were added, but I will say all the pins on the opposite side of the patches were haphazardly placed for a concert I VERY BADLY wanted to look good for LMFAOO (that's when the stars were added too! Fighting for my life on the car ride over speedrunning sewing and trying not to throw up about it AHAKHSKSHDK)

> Spike placement may be odd and I'd like to add more, but also I do frequently still carry around big heavy backpacks so I have to take that into consideration. Which is also why the wings have been bolted on. Those motherfuckers are NOT going anywhere LMFAO (has a really cool visual effect too!!)

> The material of the jacket itself (sort of a swishy windbreaker fabric) IS ABSOLUTE ASS TO WORK WITH. BY THE FUCKING WAY. IN CASE YOU WERE WONDERING. I would NOT recommend it to anybody ESPECIALLY someone who is just starting to fuck around and find out. I literally am just sticking it out bc of the sentimental value this fucker has to me 😭😭😭

This jacket was my first plunge into customization and punk fashion, I didn't have a plan and still don't have one (and I think it kind of shows lmfao). I do worry that it's too soft and cutesy. Kind of the whole point for me, when it came to leaning heavy into punk, was to feel sharper, like I had some bite to me. I might be getting closer, but I think I'm still just kind of a silly guy LMAO. But, I do think in a way, esp as my first project, it represents me well -- where I started, what I loved before the beginning, what I tried desperately to be, what I still wish for, reuniting with the things I loved and embracing them in a brand new context. It's still an ongoing project too! So maybe as I keep growing, it'll grow alongside me, maybe finding that grit I've been striving for along the way.

i think my tolerance for moe (ie the anime stuff) is in freefall rn

I KNOW there is a pipeline from teen wolf to doctor who (or the other way around) but I haven't figured it out. I just. I see you. I see stiles stilinski pop up far too often for there not to be one.

and I don't even like most of you bc it's the same fuckin sterek hating scott mccall lovers (me) vs scott mccall hating sterek lovers (you), but in a completely different fandom. it's absolutely tragic.

Survey Program, go to...the First Meeting,

There is a shift. Things move faster yet faster on the screen. A house is made. A tree is explored. It all moves by in a blur. By the time it finishes slowing down. It's somewhere you haven't seen in a while. That School. The Camera locks on a far younger Suzy than you last saw. Following her as she steals Ham Sandwiches. Stuffing them away in her arms when no body looks. She seems to get redirected to the field. Trying to make her way to hide out somewhere to have her food. She overhears a fight. Investigating it she spots a ring of spiked vines trapping others in over a confrontation. She stands by as a dodgeball rolls to her. She picks it up. Clutching it close as she witnesses the fight from an outsider's perspective. Across the field the human and monster principles approach the commotion. Following along is the Other Frisk. She throws the ball up in the air with a surprised kick reaction at the sound of a whistle.

INTERFERENCE ENABLED

The ball freezes. Redirecting itself back down to the Other Flowey. Hitting right where it was meant to. ... At the principal's office. The trio each are brought to talk about their perspective of what happened.

HOST RECALIBRATION

The perspective moves to focus on the Other Flowey. Briefly showing their side as it snaps back.

Suzy seems to brush off whatever that was. Holding her head for a minute.

As Suzy is the last to talk. She passes by the Other Frisk holding the Other Flowey. She looks neither of them in the eye.

FOLLOWER SENT

That Clam Girl you hadn't seen since Waterfall bursts in the room. Talking to Suzy. Asking if she was ok. As she talks the Program runs off some previously made choice.

INTERFERENCE ENABLED "You did not. Perhaps it was nobody at all." "Does a punishment for him seem that fitting in the grand scheme of things?"

The principles seem... unsure of themselves as they talk. Letting Suzy and Clam Girl go as they are left to ponder on that push of direction.

Flowey: "As much as I'd like to go on and on about how funny and cathartic it is to see my younger self getting smacked in the head by a dodgeball, I have something else more important to talk about,"

Flowey: "Like, for instance, what did Clam Girl mean when she said that? Does that mean the other me didn't get expelled from school??"

Frisk: "I'm not sure why you're making it sound like a bad thing-,"

Flowey: "That's because it IS a bad thing! EXPEL HIM FROM THAT HELL SCHOOL! SET HIM FREEEEEE!!!"

Frisk: "At least the other me got to spend more time with the other you at school....they also got to spend more time with you acting like a cranky baby,"

Flowey: "YOU'RE ONLY ADDING TO MY POINT! Six or seven hours of space between us for five days in a row is healthy and for the best!"

Frisk: "Mhm, I know you're just saying that,"

Flowey: "I SAY A LOT OF THINGS, FRISK!"

Flowey then calms down: "Ahem...anyways, this confirms it, the Doctor is responsible for changing and manipulating that timeline, however, it looks like Clam Girl is one of their followers and is Suzy's caretaker, I'm not sure how I feel about it, but at least she seems harmless,"

Frisk: "Yeah, hopefully Suzy is happy with the change,"

Flowey: "Mm...she was stealing sandwiches and looked miserable, but eh, maybe after making friends with you, things will turn around for her,"

Frisk: "I'm sure you have the potential to make her happy too, you're a lovely friend when you get comfortable with a person,"

Flowey: "Eh, you're biased,"

i'm honestly considering remaking because i seriously think something about having the same account for so many years is scary. like i don't want to delete this account but i sort of really do?

[fortes-fortuna-iogurtum]

I was just about to make a post that said something like 'Eliza Scarlet and Inspector Wellington wish they had what Bobby Jones and Lady Frances Derwent have,' but the truth is they still have a looooonnnggg ways to go before they're actually to the point of actively desiring to work as an effective a team, instead of turning very single one of their interactions into either a competition or an opportunity to pointlessly take offense at the other (and most often, both at once).
