Sexual tension (Johnnie Guilbert x fem reader) smut
Tumblr media
·:*¨༺ ♱✮♱ ༻¨*:·
Warning: smut, degradation, choking, petnames, virgin reader,, DONT READ IF YOU ARE UNDER 18🔞
🦇author: the edit thats in this post is not mine,, all credits to crystalcaskle on tiktok!!! :) I also apologize if theres any misspelled words english is not my first language!
♱
I woke up around 7 am when i decided to make myself some breakfast before i start streaming,, ive started youtube 1 year ago, around that time when i met Johnnie. Ive been living with him and Jake for the past 3 months and honestly its been going pretty good.
“whatcha’ making?”
“oh god dont scare me like that!” i slightly punch him in the shoulder
“sorry sorry.. it smells really good” he puts his arm around my shoulder and i blush.. i had a crush on him since when we first met
“you want some pancakes?” i look at him
“yeah, thanks” he pats my head, making my hair look like a mess
“i hate you” i roll my eyes
“you love me” he laughs as he sits down
‘i do..” i thought to myself
i make some coffee and more pancakes as i sit down next to Johnnie.
“are you doing something after?” he asks me while he keeps eating his pancakes
“yeah..i have to stream right now,, but im free afterwards” i smile
“wanna go out?” he finally looks at me,, he looked so beautiful,, his blue beautiful eyes.. his makeup he forgot to take off before bed that somehow still looked good on him.
“yeah..i would love to” i smile a little
i stand up
“i better go now, ill see you in 2 hours johnnie” i smile as i walk to my room
1 hour later*
i started streaming and i decided to react to some videos that my followers sent me,, they were usually sending edits of me or they will even sometimes send me memes. They all kinda supposed i had a crush on Johnnie, i just didn’t want to say anything just yet. They will sometimes send me edits of Johnnie and see my face turning red.
As one of my followers sent me this edit
When i watched that edit i said something that i will be definitely regretting later
“i volunteer..*cough* i mean what?..” i laugh
“WHAT DID SHE SAY” “DID WE HEAR THAT RIGHT?” “SHE JUST SAID I VOLUNTEER” “TELL ME THAT SOMEONE CLIPPED THAT”
“chat you are all crazy” i laughed
after another hour i decided to end the stream as i said my goodbyes
i walk to the living room as i see Johnnie sitting on the couch looking a bit serious
“you okay there?” i chuckle
“i need to talk to you”
oh no.
“yeah what is it?”
“mind explaining me this?” he shows me a clip of my reaction to that one edit on my stream
"oh um." i blush as i look away
"hm?" he stands up and walks towards me "cat got your tongue?"
i didnt say anything. i just stared at the floor
"i asked you something" he puts his hand on my chin
"it- it was just a joke, you know?" i chuckle awkwardly as i felt like i was about to pass out from embarassment
"it didnt seem like a joke to me" he stares at me
"yeah umm..." i start to walk back as he started to walk towards me, almost like trying to intimidate me
"whats wrong?" he smirks
"n-nothing" i finally bump into the wall behind me
"if you wanted to get fucked by me you couldve just said so"
"w-what?"
"dont play dumb"
"i-im no-" he grabs my neck
"lying to me wont get you anywhere" he stares at my shirt as he starts to put his hand inside my shirt
"j-johnnie what are y-" i could literally feel my heart beat racing by the second
"dont tell me you dont want this” he now started to kiss my neck
i felt like i was literally about to pass out from how hot i was in that moment. i couldn’t believe this was actually happening,,
“come here” he picks me up in bride style and sets up on walking to his bedroom,, he opens the door and throws me to his bed as he climbs on top of me
“fuck,, i wanted this for so long..” he starts to take off my shirt,, i felt hot between my legs
he started to kiss my stomach going down my hips. he slowly took off my pants and threw them on the floor
“johnnie wait!” he stops
“whats wrong? did i go too far??” he looks at me worried
“no no…its just that…its my first time..” i blush
“oh…” he smirks “ill make you feel good alright baby?,, you just have to trust me with this okay? can you do that for me?” he caresses my thigh. i nod as he then continued what he was doing earlier. he starts to kiss my chest going down my stomach, and finally reaching down to my panties.
“can i?” he started to kiss my inner thigh
“mhm” i nod
he slowly started to take off my panties as he then began to slowly eat me out. I’ve never in my life had been touched this way by anyone,, and knowing that the first person to take away my virginity was johnnie, it relieved me. i started to whimper as he suddenly started to go faster. his tongue was reaching all the right spots.
“fuck-“ i whimper as i felt him moan, sending vibrations to my core which gave me even more pleasure. i look down as i see him staring at me as he kept eating me out “johnnie fuck i-“ i moan
“come on baby, be a good girl and cum on my face” him calling me a ‘good girl’ sent me shivers down my spine.
“oh god oh god oh god-“ i throw my head back as i came
johnnie looks at me and caresses my thighs once again.
“you did so good baby..” he gets up and starts to kiss me. I see him unbuckling his pants.
“do you want this?” he asks
“yes…yes i do” i was so turned on by now that the only thing i wanted was him..and only him
“you will have to beg for it or ill leave you like this…needy…and you dont want that right princess?” he smirks
“n-no…” fuck he knew what he was doing. He waits for me to continue
“p-please johnnie..” i whimper as he lined himself to my entrance
“you can do better than that..” he looks at me dead in the eyes
“please johnnie i want your dick inside of me..” i beg,, i felt so embarrassed but turned on at the same time
“thats a good girl” he gets inside of my without a warning as i moaned from the sudden feeling
“for how long you’ve wanted this y/n? hm? tell me.” he began to move
“for a l-long time..” i moan, it felt like i was on cloud nine
He started to thrust harder and faster,, i felt like i was about to cum.
“j-johnnie i-im~” i whimpered and he put his hand on my leg and place it on his shoulder for better access which made the feeling 100 times better
“i know baby i know…fuck y-you feel amazing” he thrusted faster, “come on princess cum with me…” he moaned as we both cummed. We started to breath heavily,, with our hair sticking to our foreheads because of the sweat,, messy hair and red face but he still looked beautiful
“youre absolutely gorgeous..” i blush at his sudden comment
“i dont know if this is the right time but…i really like you..” he confesses
“i like you too johnnie…ive liked you for a very long time..” i smile at him as he kisses my forehead and we both fall asleep in each others arms.

( @heffer-wen I was going to write a reply but got lazy about breaking up this word vomit into parts, so… new post!)
(Also… yeah, ace is probably what I was thinking last night (lmao… “business minded” 🤣) I think I do see him as some shade of asexual when it comes down to it)
More thoughts on Torquemada (aka Here’s How We Could Have Had It All)
I feel like I recall seeing some interview at one point where Fontana admitted that he didn’t have much of Oz thought out beyond s1 and a bit of s2, and for sure the later seasons get wacky but there’s still Something there with most of the little bits that end up in the show, imo. It’s mostly the execution that leaves something to be desired, like Fontana and the other writers (I'm not sure to what degree who writes what) didn't really have time to think out the story beats of the seasons or else didn't have time to come up with something better/do some editing. I said a while back (idr where/what post tho), but I think if Alonzo had been brought in earlier, a lot of the same s6 plotlines could have still been achieved while giving us more time to know him and make his appearance worthwhile. Like, first couple episodes after he’s introduced could’ve just been those in-betweener scenes where we see him settling into Oz and putting out feelers:
Interacting with the other Gays (more screen time for them at last??) and getting the lowdown on Oz; I have my other headcanon (based on the crowd scenes) that the Gays sometimes help the Latinos move tits, so maybe…
This would bring him toe to toe with Morales or at least have a chance to with him briefly while the former is on his way out; maybe Torquemada wants to bring his own expertise to the game and tries to talk business to Morales, who’s got other things on his mind and blows Alonzo off, or else puts Alonzo to task with finding out what’s going on with Redding, etc. I think Alonzo could handle himself here, as Redding is no threat at this point, but maybe the real question is whether or not he wants to try to conform and fit in under Morales’ control, which I think the answer would be no, meaning...
Seeing Alonzo ultimately decide to forge his own path to the top and take his sweet deal with Destiny to the Italians
Miguel’s + the other Latinos’ storylines could’ve been largely unchanged meanwhile. Obviously some shit from s6 would have to be sacrificed to accommodate expanding Torquemada's storyline but lbr, s6 had a lot of going-nowhere plotlines as well as storylines that couldve afforded to be much shorter, so there’s honestly plenty of fat to choose from when it comes to what to cut. And introducing Alonzo like this would’ve helped bring the Italians more into play in s6 (could've simultaneously explored a little bit of the post-Schibetta world of the Italians, or at least shown more fall out), as well as the gays. Canonically Alonzo comes in episode 7, and what I’m thinking is basically to bring him in on episode 3 or 4 (right after Said dies) (get rid of the ridiculous Idzik shit). With the 1 hour episodes, that would be plenty of time to start showing his rise to power. He could occasionally cross paths with other characters and get on their radar while creating small moments to plant the payoff of the canon e7 & e8.
I just feel like the pieces would fall into place in a much more satisfying way if we saw earlier on how Torquemada was quietly moving things in his own direction and being either underestimated or ignored due to characters being wrapped up in their own stories. He’d have been there the ~whole times~ and the show could’ve ended with his move to the top feeling more earned, with a little bit more of his potential as a kingpin explored and hinted at with the season finale. Again, it would also have been a good opportunity to explore the Gays in Oz and see how they fit in. Like I mentioned in my tags of the other post, I do think Torquemada would throw some of them under the bus/not care what happens to them once he gets his lmao.
(A s7/new post-canon tale of a subsequent downfall for Alonzo might concern itself mostly with hubris; burnt bridges and capricious impulses might leave no one in his corner if he did lose his footing and start to stumble… I think also him being queer and not just a ~fucker of men~ like Adebisi would motivate his enemies to unite to take him down more so than if he were anybody else.)

STAR TREK: DISCOVERY | S1E7 "Magic to Make the Sanest Man Go Mad"
[I will react to each episode individually and in full, raw reception and then post as is unrevised here onto my tumblr for the full span of every and all NuTrek episodes and series that have been and will be released. If this falls under your field of interest - I welcome your company in joining me. Enjoy the ride.] -------
man the intro just continues to remind me fucking ingenius the Star Trek introduction was period. Love it. forever. and always. wonder when we will see these scenes play out when we will see that big plant tentacle monster from the intro or when we will see the two hands touch etc
things are flowing so fast rn in burnham's evaluative speech at the start of this episode. even though not much has happened. and no offence but, i do not think shes earned this kind of audience? because theres like. still hardly much to like nor connect with these characters? imo. idk. idk if its just me, maybe it is. but i definitely dont really have much investment in any characters yet. actually, the one character i resonated MOST with was mega-sized space waterbear, no cap. (oh mossie i miss you i hope we can see you again) trek party lol. ok ill say this one thing DISCO has a lot of filming inconsistencies between shots. like, lets say burnham's hands will be up holding her face. but then next shot, her hands are down at her seat. then switch back and her hands are back up. that sort of thing. happens a lot all the time. stamets. happy drunk. lovey dovey. cute. ash and burnham? idk. every time lorca says saru, i just catch myself thinkning "sulu" cute mega-organisms gormagander wow. space whale sounds. amazing. is it prego. … who ANDORIAN?/ IS THAT AN ANDORIAN OML ITS HELMET SO CUTE oh nevermind its scarier. MUDD. but yes that is an andorian helmet wow so cute give me one. stella.
MUDD is so vengeful. what interesting implications for TOS. DUDE WTF the end of DISCO. man a time plot huh ok lets see how this goes a remix of stayin' alive runners said left. let me guess. burnham will later predict them coming from behind her. and then be like "huh. why did i already know this" there is something off about the delivery of these lines from so many of the actors lorca's actor feels pretty grounded same as saru which is good. something feels so weird with the line delivery. idk if it sthe actors or if its the way the filming is that just makes it feel less effective acting?? idk i think its cuz theres a lot of organic quality missing in a lot of the actors getting a decent amount of screentime? i dont want to sound rude ofc i just feel something is off yeah. man. a time jumping Mudd. now THAT'S terrifying. Poor stewart. he didnt deserve to get thrown. "went his own way"? u sure you didnt kill him. Mudd's actor is also pretty grounded. the lines roll off well and not awkwardly. Nice Stamets. this is too fast. Muidd gets shot in the back and then Stamets has a comedic line delivery that seriously needed a pause or soemthing, but we switch imediately to ending the scene and returning after what felt like a commercial break or seomthing.
yeah the pacing of the show is just RUSHING so much like WHY. it just eats up so much of any weight this show couldve had in even its smallest things. i know i sound so critical but its built up a lot and its already the 7th episode into the 1st season. Stamets actor feels pretty good too but i think its just awkward screenplay and awkward lines and weirdo af pacing/film style that ruin things. they need to let this show BREATHE more. it s such a shame they didnt. maybe not the best director. also too many zooms. the show feels so experimental, but i dont know if necessarily in a good way. i sound so pickky but bro im saying what im seeing,. ok sorry this just now, stamets talking to burnham when he says hes the one "missing from mudd's timeloop" is actually pretty bad. bad editing super inconsistent between shots and why are there like a billion camera cuts? we dont need THIS many angles to talk about one single conversational exchange no offence. this scene was pretty bad. weird screenplay, weird delivery, bad editing stamets even sounded like there was a shot with his mic off i could hear the environmental reverb why is this happening. with such a beautiful visual and constume budget such as this. also yes. that is A GORN IN LORCA'S OFFICE. oh my god that means maybe the gorn from SNW DO look humanoid fully matured. ugh cant wait to see what that means. mudd is so merciless. man lorca died like a bug so many times. wtf. why is stamets out of focus- WHAT. WHAT IS THAT. THE FUCK WAS THAT im sorry no this wasnt funny cuz it was supposed to be funny in that way im sorry but just now
when stamets tells burnham that "shes never been in love" at the party in the time loop, she says in the WEIRDEST most… sry ngl, badly acted type way, replying "why would you say that to me" that i had to actually PAUSE the episode and rewatch that again to confirm what i saw. just finished the rewatch of this one scene. wtf was that. sorry that was so poor. its soooo awkwarddddd. and flatttt. what is this ADR though. stamet's ADR in this episode is some of the worse. also sorry that lens reflection of that one green party light that hit right onto burnham's face during this exchange, its almost as if i HEARD the cameraman's thoughts going "ah shit this stupid light" as the camera moved downward to get as much of that green spot out of the direct line of her face. okay, Mr. God-Named-Stamets. is that an apron that isnt a one sided dress. dance in the hallway. ok. this wa so fast. this tone feels very not in sync with the course of this plot? where did this dance thing come from. i think im feeling such a dissonance rn when stamets is on screen because he feels like hes NOT stamets. idk its like, i get that charcters/people are hopefully more than 1-dimensional, and that we get to learn about them more as time passes, but like this kind of feels like stamets just wasnt properly developed and we the audience just didnt get enough proper exposure to him to recognise who really is his person? if that makes ANY sense to anyone. ok no offence, this episode probably is the most trash in terms of script. harry mudd, time loop, saving the ship from destruction, but then also stamets is an omniscient constant, while also flat cardboard af awkward love revelations between ash and burnham?? idk. maybe in a different writers' room, this coiuld be made compellingly and cohesively. but right now. this episode is NOT. IT. im sorry so why does it feel like its deterioriating a bit. the show had me in the beginning cuz how freaking DIFFERENT and UPGRADED it looked (gorgeous btw) compared to ALL the series that came before it in Prime-Timeline. but no matter how i fought it, my emersions been finally broken by the consistently questionable factors that keep loudly making themselves known in this show. too frequently bad deliveries from actors weird af editing bad cinematography even my great efforts to ignore it all and benefit of the doubt, it was too much. which is, based on everything ive ever watched ever, a BAD thing. also, oml lorca is so small in this episode - which actually i like. he feels so insignificant in this episode haha, small fry dying every single time. also i hope i see more creative deaths in this show, cuz everytime someone dies is them dissipating in dusty colour. come onnn, we can do better than thattt.
also just fyi, understand that i am NOT advocating for a super "serious/dire" star trek, weve had a bit of that in random episodes thoruhgout the franchise and moveis too - so no, i also absolutely love silly mad crazy trek plots too, but like. DISCO i think is probably handling this in a way that is the worst ever in Star Trek so far, even among its whacky insane moments. I am keeping to the series and going to stick it through all the way to the end of course. but yeah, i was never here to just be some blind non-insightful talking head that just admired this show unconditionally. if you thought so, then you should try again. i will say whats good, but likewise whats bad. and right now, the good things are things that i have already said, but the bad is really kicking up a storm right now. captain mudd. amazing. its so off-balance, this show. some deliveries are great, pacing is great. but then its like so sporadic and everywhere too often etc yes. delivery is REALLY weird and super weak in too many scenes. idk. maybe construction of the show itself is just weak in too many areas. so so strange. with a show that LOOKS genuinely this good. im just so perplexed. the shows construction feels so amateurish i guess? in not a very good way. "nobody beats Mudd, huh." a businessman is correct, lorca. these camera zoomes are really distasteful. like lorca over here making some consistently really solid deliveries, and the stupid camera cuts and zooms and unnecessary movements just cheapen it all. it makes me so angry. this show needed a better writers' room and better directing. and terrible ADR. its liek they use different mics every 2 lines. i can HEAR the discrepancies, even without my audiophile headphones.
im so mad and sad by this. because the threads of the issues i was sensing since episode 1 are now kind of unforgiveable. i can no longer look over them. so im here really speaking about them in this reaction this time. no offence it kind of feels like nothing much happened this whole episode. and im literally 3 minutes away from finishing this episode. im sorry im not impressed with this ending in how mudd was caught. i feel like this show didnt know how to quite handle the crazy nature of Trek. Bad editing yeah. i keep consistently seeing how for example Mudd is talking, and the camera cuts to a different angle shot of the same line delivery that has to get repeated and edited in, but i can physically see Mudd's jaw still moving in speech despite his dialogue halting from the ADR of the other camera shot. THIS ^ stuff KEEPS happening. and it shouldnt. its super BASIC stuff relatively speaking. and there wasnt this much of an obvious degree of this problematic editing in even older series of trek. so strange. 'i hate how it lifted me out of immersion of this show, this list of issues. you know, id LOVE to see ANY scene of conversation withOUT the stupid slow-creep zoom. listen, i KNOW that this is very often used everywhere in media, but it doesnt mean "always'. in this case DISCO does it poorly. ok episode over. i am not convinced over ANYTHING that just happened. its a 44 minute long episode, but it felt brief as fuck. it didnt feel like it had much substance at all - and im NOT talking some kind of "moral message" shit - things do NOT have to have a real message to be good. and this episode was actually not. it felt so criminally underwhelming. like ok, stamets had augmentation that let him resist the time loop.... and? so what. so what about that. nothing significant happened except apparently blossoming love story between Ash and Burnham, which- Ash x Burnham?
bullshit.
bro that was terrible. and they got zero chemistry no sorry no. get outta here.
burnham had more chemistry with the fucking captain than ash. (i dont support either one dw.) ok. well. ima continue the trip ofc. but mmmmm stupid peripheral things are really not doing this show justice. i fear that DISCO is a show that couldve been great but just wasnt even good. bad writing, bad directing, bad editing, bad delivery - i am far from being sold than I was in episode 1. i gave the excuse of the first episode feeling so brisk because it was an exposition….. but the show quickly tired out my benefit-of-the-doubt with how i see that ep 1 wasnt so much a mere exposition, but that its kind of ACTUALLY what this show IS. i cant lie. im p nervous for this show. SNW was fucking good, so i just hope that this show improves to SNW's level where all these questionable issues resolve at some point, more or less.
guess i'll see.

AUUGHHH THINKING ABOUT SUPERNATURAL ORIGINS AND WHAT IT COULDVE BEEN…….
it’s so sad to think about it because the creators were so happy to tell their characters story but obviously they’ve been doing it for years at this point. I think a bit before covid? But they mostly been doing it full time since covid started since like. What else is there to do? So all those years of making stories, making content, editing, new seasons, having breaks here and there and obviously I don’t know everything since I only joined during,,what? Fucking mho? (Apparently that was when the fandom peaked. Which wasnt a good thing from what I heard from present origins fans who still kept their love of the mcrps) And I didn’t like twitter as a place to use and interact with really so I never got to see into whatever the origins fandom was up to in terms of fanart, theories, fics, which sucks now because I love these series so much
They hit burnout by the time of sno, which came after origins of Olympus. Which was a crazy season btw! What the hell! Dranne you better pay for my fucking therapy you son of bitch!!! (but pluless was the only one actually posting daily on sno, and reinbloo finished calix story later on but it feels short as someone who really loved calix when I first saw his pov, hell I watched the 2nd season of sno! But it was probably for the best that calix got an ending. No matter how sad it was like damn. Make me cry in the afternoon on a school day haha, I think Ritchie tried to finish his pov? But from what I checked he hasn’t) they tried to fix it after having a break and then tried to start up another series just for it to end the same as sno. But I’m glad they just decided to stop beating around the bush. Even if the person who said let’s end it all turned out to be a fucking creep.
Rant over but I’ll still hold all these stories I love close to my heart. Rewatching them all give me a bittersweet feeling but I channel that into drawing fanart so it’s sorta a win win :D

Live thoughts about season 2 episode 1
I am exhausted mentally so have fun deciphering what I’m saying
Transition from 0;48-0;49 was abrupt
why haven’t we heard about siblings before?
“cease this bitch crying” the curse is unneeded. it doesn’t fit with the kingly vibe of the character. he’s an asshole father yes but hes also supposed to be a regal king. you don’t need a curse there, it breaks character.
the circus bit with just blitz and fizz seems... kinda dumb and nonsensical? maybe something is just flying over my head but that scene feels empty and not in a good way
hold up... so i havent finished the episode yet (at 5;21) but did stolas’s family fucking own blitz? if so that makes stoliz even worse of a ship and even if they didnt that power dynamic is so fucking off. 
the balloon animal scene is... interesting
blitz having an abusive and manipulative father doesn’t excuse the fact he is now an asshole that ignores boundaries and uses people. a great example of this is bojack horseman
why hasn’t it been mentioned that they fucking know each other from childhood before? 
“I’m so good at daddy-ing” the only funny quote from helluva boss
“The living world” so are... demons and imps and shit not alive or smthing?
yeah no hes not a good boss. 
imma be honest, maybe it’s me being aromantic and not understanding love and shit, but if the person i liked as a kid came over and stole a bunch of shit from me, tricking me into helping them, 25 years later i wouldn’t still like that kid.
OKAY DOES STELLA FUCKING LIVE THERE OR NOT
LIKE SERIOUSLY EPISODE SEVEN
STOLAS SAID OCTAVIA WAS AT HER MOTHERS
IT WAS LATE AT NIGHT
WE CAN ASSUME SHE LEFT WITH OCTAVIA
SO DOES STELLA FUCKING LIVE THERE OR N O T
edit: apparently this was a flashback which. wasn’t made clear. at all
edit edit: SHE STILL FUCKING LIVES THERE????
also is no one gonna stop and think that Stella was also forced into this marriage?
like oh no shes an asshole kid
so is blitz
okay nitpick but the glass was empty when she threw it against the window why did it leave a red stain. 13;37
WAIT THIS ISNT PRESENT DAY
TF YOU COULDVE MADE THAT MORE CLEAR
Also the power imbalance here isnt sexy its disgusting
✨manipulation✨ and ✨power imbalance✨
“i barely remember your name” bitch why tf you lusting after him still-
sex repulsed ace just became more sex repulsed 
i skipped through the... i dont want to call it foreplay. ive read better foreplay in smut fanfiction written by virgin 12 year olds.
“thats the sound of a fucking divorce” SO WHY IS SHE TRYING TO KILL HIM
calling anti depressants happy pills is classy. stay classy viv. 
im not listening to the song i have no energy nor time for that bs i have an episode of welcome to demon school iruma-kun that’s begging to be watched after this
DOES
STELLA
FUCKING
LIVE 
THERE
OR
NOT
OKAY THANK YOU FOR THE ANSWER
Can you not kick her out
or just 
idk
fucking
move
YOU HAVENT GOTTEN THE DIVORCE YET
also random thoughth but yes i do consider stella abusive
funny how all the female characters in helluva boss with any sense of story purpose are either dicks (or framed as such in the case of Verosika) or are just there as props to give the male characters some semblance of a character
all in all
episode was confusing
and characters werent v realistic
3/10

!!! A COURT OF SILVER FLAME SPOILERS !!!
Alternatively, Asli finished the book in like six hours and has many, many thoughts.
Tumblr media
ON THE TOPIC OF NESTA, SOME CASSIAN AND NESSIAN AS A WHOLE.
holy shit. this is a lot.
She has grown so much, and I mean that by the little things.
I love that sjm didn’t make it so she was addicted to the wine and sex
Okay I understand Nesta was frustrating sometimes because she really was stubborn but some of the shit Cassian said was really out of line. Especially when he screamed that no one like fucking liked her.
Cassian was down so bad this entire book and I knew that the moment he said he hadn’t bed a female in two years. He was STARVINGGG
Her determination in getting down those stairs, I probably wouldve tested myself down a window or something.
I liked how she bonded with the House. It was a refreshing, different take on loneliness and finding a friend.
The House and how it looked after her. It was the biggest thing in her journey.
One theme I see in Nesta a lot is self sabotage, especially when it means the safety of others. She’s ready to throw herself in front of them.
Her banter with Cassian was really nice to read.
WHEN SHE MENTIONED HAVING A THREESOME TWICE I DIED
Cassian and his backstory was rip. It was really sad thinking about how little kid Cass really regretted some of the things that even he couldn’t control.
sjm did not disappoint with inner thoughts. Those were really refreshing.
She wasn’t vividly jealous or furious at Mor and Cassian’s friendship and I really liked that take.
Cassian’s silent jealously when Helion tries to flirt with Nesta and she dodged it LMAOOO
When Cassian kisses her in front of their family to help her get out of the map
Her silent bond with Az! That kept me going honestly. He was a sly bastard sometimes.
Sometimes I really questioned somethings, like those fast smut scenes but that’s just my preference.
Her marching down to Amren’s after she finds out they voted against her having the weapons she Made
Not to mention how she told Feyre about the baby and the labor risk out of anger, that really hurt both of them and me.
When she stayed silent during her punishment hike with Cassian. Each thought tore me apart.
When he warned her about falling and she was glad he didn’t see the expression on her face. How she didn’t mind if she fell down and how it would better.
When she cried after all those days of silence and finally told him how she felt underneath all that.
He softened up fast too and blamed himself for not realizing all this time why she hated the fire.
Can we talk about that dancing scene with Eris? And how Cassian was secretly exploding on the side as he remembered her mother wanted her to marry a Prince just like Eris.
WHEN ERIS ASKED RHYS WHAT HE WANTED IN EXCHANGE FOR NESTA TO BE HIS BRIDE AFTER LIKE A COUPLE DANCED LMAOO
The Solstice scene had my heart. The gift Az got Nesta and how she hugged him after he told her about it. How Cassian smiled at the sight.
HOW CASS GOT HER A LITTLE MUSIC BOX RECORDED WITH THE MUSIC FROM THE BALLROOM AND HOW HE ASKED THE MUSICIANS TO PERFORM IT FOR HIM AFTER EVERYONE LEFT SO HE COULD GET IT FOR HERRRR
They really kept shit away from each other till it exploded in an argument and that’s a reoccurring theme with this book couple.
WHAT MADE ME SO FRUSTRATED WAS HOW HE WANTED TO STAY IN HER BED AFTER SEX AND SHE WANTED TO CUDDLE BUT THEY DIDNT SAY ANYTHING AND ASSUMED THE OTHER DIDNT WANT IT
The topic of mates was RUSHED. Like I mean really rushed. First they argue, he says shackled and then the next time they get to speak (after the forced Blood Rite and labor scene) they accept it? I dont know, it didn’t sit with me.
I wish Nesta would elaborate on why she didn’t believe in Mates even more and Cassian would actually listen for once. Again, rushed.
The ending was fast paced in my opinion. We could’ve really had more to go off of, I needed more domestic Nessian.
ON THE TOPIC OF NESTA, GWYN, EMERIE
I am obsessed with Gwyn, Emerie and their friendship with Nesta.
I love how Gwyn and Nesta started, both gritting their teeth and still appreciating that aspect of each other.
How Nesta raced to help her with a book even when their first encounter wasn’t the friendliest.
Gwyn being persistent in paying back her small debt. I love her.
When Gwyn applied to defense lessons after Nesta defended them from the scholar priestess.
Emerie, my homegirl. I love her to death. The way she easily befriends Nesta, how Nesta stands up for her when her cousin comes to bother her.
I don’t know if it was just me, but Emerie and Mor might possibly be something. Either good friends or interested lovers.
THE WAY EMERIE BONDED OVER SMUTTY NOVELS WITH THE OTHER GIRLS AND LET THEM BORROW HER STUFFFFFF
Gwyn helping Nesta with her research on Valkyries. Muah.
Gwyn and Az, I feel like something might happen here and if it does, I do not want any Elriel drama getting dragged in, MY GIRL GWYN HAS BEEN THROUGH ENOUGH OKAY
Gwyn thinking she doesn’t deserve the purity jewel the other priestesses wear and her backstory honestly just broke me. She endured so much.
Emerie and everything she lost. Her mother, her brother, her wings and any dreams she had of flying. How she distracts herself with work and gardening to keep that off her mind.
The way the girls all developed inside jokes, jokingly hanged up on Cassian at training and always had Nesta’s back.
The way they were dedicated to each other even during the Rite when they couldve let one another behind and won.
HER SISTERSSS I CRIED I WOULD DIE FOR THIS MF TRIOOOO
ON THE TOPIC OF THE INNER CIRCLE + THE ARCHERON PARENTS
Fey-ruh was pregoooo she and Rhys raw dogged it
I felt really really bad when no one fucking told her she would die because the baby had wings and she wasn’t fit to give birth like that. Like. What.
Can we talk about how they fucked when Feyre was in her Illyrian form and didn’t think the thing through?
Rhys, I can’t stand the guy. First he wants to make a bargain with his mate that they die together and then he wants to keep it from her that she can die when giving birth to their kid.
I think what pissed me off the most was when he was trying to help Cassian get Nesta out of a nightmare/power “episode” and had to experience what she did with the Cauldron and seeing Elain and Cassian hurt. He said he knew she was feeling something but seeing and feeling it yourself was different. Yeah, what else did you think smartass.
Rhys has a habit of keeping important shit secret, Amren is no better either. I think that’s what pissed me off the most. They sometimes kept the too important shit away.
As much as Nesta grew, so did Feyre. They both developed pretty good in my mind, I don’t hate her as much as I despise Rhys sometimes. All and all I love how she and Nesta ended up.
Amren....I get her point about Nesta using and abusing their friendship. At the same time, sometimes she was too harsh.
Elain, darling old cottage core aesthetic Elain. I found her to be a little insufferable sometimes. How she showed up unexpectedly at the Library to talk to Nesta and they got into an argument was funny to me since Nesta pulled out some stuff on her.
ELAIN THANKING NESTA AND SAYING FINALLY AFTER SHE TELLS HER TO “OH FUCK OFF” AT THE SOLSTICE PARTY WAS SO RANDOM
Elain and Lucien is some fucked up shit. I understand how she doesn’t want to acknowledge the fact that they’re mates and all that but you can atleast thank the guy when he gives you a gift on Solstice.
I feel bad for Lucien because as sweet as Elain might show to be, she’s really hurting him and could just reject him if she really doesn’t want him.
AZ AZ AZ I LOVE HIM AND HIS SLY MOMENTS
Az when he cockblocks is the best thing. Do it more often.
Az and Nesta’s bond is something I want to see more, as well as how she literally thought about a threesome with him and Cassian.
Morriiiiigan. Everyone mentions her beauty and how she’s like the sun walking and I admire that. She wasn’t as annoying as I thought she’d be on the topic of Nesta and Cassian being an item.
She also wasn’t in the book as much which made sense since she was in Vallahan. I did like how she accepted Nessian towards the end.
The long awaited Mrs Archeron. Some of my theories about her proved true! About how she groomed her daughters into marriage ideologies at the worst age. 12 and 11? What the fuck?
The way she called Elain a pretty thing with no ambition at 11, no wonder Nesta and Elain have no proper knowledge of survival like Feyre did. She was set on making sure Nesta married someone who would treat her well, Elain married someone rich since her beauty was beyond all three of them.
Literally Mrs Archeron was not okay LMAOOO why are you telling your daughters this when they haven’t even bled yet damn CHILL
I felt bad since she didn’t care for Feyre and only their father doted on Elain and Feyre. Nesta was kept all to her mother to feed off Mrs Archeron’s narcissism.
Not to mention she died a year later
I found it funny Elain mentioned how at 15, Nesta even had their dad fearing her. Like it’s your daughter, wdym you fear her
The backstory on how Nesta treated him and how she feels now looking back. It was saddening and I unfortunately know the regret of not doing somethings. It must eat her alive.
I enjoyed reading this book, even if I wasn’t content with the ending. I tabbed a LOT of things so you’ll probably catch me editing and adding more to this in the morning. Thank you for reading all the way down here! 🤍

So right now my whole dash is a mix of The Witcher and RWBY. So i was sitting here laughing at the fact those two things have nothing in common. But then i remembered 🤦‍♀️ huntsmen and huntresses fight the grimm... the grimm are monsters... witchers are made for the specific purpose of fighting monsters... both these shows are about killing monsters
In a effort to defend myself id like to point out how theres almost no other similarities that hold up past "thats kinda like this"
EDIT: i went and played myself there i started looking at the "kinda"s and accidentally mightve made the beginnings for a RWBY!AU for The Witcher. WHICH I AM VERY SURPRISED i managed to merge THIS MUCH together
Geralt fights with a sword... so many RWBY characters fight with swords. Granted most of them added guns to them but at least Jaune is out there with a normal sword
Witchers can handle a lot more damage than normal people... huntsmen/tresses take more damage than normal untrained people
RWBY is a fantasy sci-fi combination setting and one of the fantasy elements is that there used to be a lot of magic around but now its just fragments left. And it manifests in two ways: everyone has their own personal superpower (which they have to unlock) (called a semblance), and magic rocks (called Dust) that contain elemental magic which is released when you break it. Witchers have signs, and i dont remember what they all are but i know one of them is fire
Portals exist. Granted unless you're one of the immortal humans or relic spirits that are still walking around they can only be made by someone's semblance. The only portal semblance in the show so far is called Kindred Link, and has a lot of negative emotions wrapped up in it/that particular person but it does make me think a bit about Geralt and Yennefer and the djinn... with the who being permanentlyďżź tied to another person for the rest of time thing
Jaskier follows Geralt around for the adventure stories. Ruby said in episode 1 or 2 that "sure i could be a police officer, but theres just something more romantic about being a huntress" and later on Yang admits that she's only becoming a huntress because "i want adventure! Im a adrenalineďżź junkie. Being a huntress just lines up with that". So in a AU Jaskier following Geralt around still has merit
Remember those immortals i mentioned? Well one of them made a few semi-immortals called Maidens which outside the two immortals are the only people who can actually use magic, and it has a wacky inheritance policy. Long story short 1) only young women can inherit 2) the powers are transferred to the last girl in the maiden's dying thoughts (unless she's thinking about someone else, then the selection process becomes randomized). Ciri is this very magical being that can do things normal sorceresses cant... and so could her mom. So in this AU her mom couldve been a randomly selected maiden, and at the time of her death it passed to Ciri. But Ciri was a baby at the time so she never really unlocked her powers until now.
Maidens are also super unknown (theres only 4), so everyone not knowing what Ciri is still matches up especially if her mom was randomized and was not found, told, and trained before her death

omg if you have watched the most recent ep. whose side are you on Katie's or Greg's???
AHHH so i know i’m late answering this BUT better late than never i guess ksjdjs so i love katie and i was totally expecting to be on her side, hoWEVER. when i was watching their hometown date, before greg even got upset i was sitting there like ….omg katie SAY SMTHN HELLO THIS BOY JUST POURED HIS HEART OUT TO U AND HAS TEARS STREAMING DOWN HIS FACE SAY SMTHN !!!! ANYTHING PLS!!! COMFORT HIM FOR THE LOVE OF GOD lmao LIKE BEFORE THE DRAMA EVEN STARTED!!! and so i can completely see where greg was coming from :/ i for one HATE oversharing as it is, so i know if i poured my heart out like greg did and got NO reaction or acknowledgment whatsoever then i would put my walls up too. but honestly, i just think they were on two separate pages. greg obviously needed reassurance about her feelings for him, he said that going into the date, and wasn’t personally okay with his future fiancé not knowing if she was going to choose him yet. and that’s understandable. i think we forget these are real people’s real lives and not just a show that everyone is magically okay with bc theyre on the show. like in no way would this situation ever be normal irl, so it’s not far-fetched for greg to want katie to know it was going to be him. like obviously it runs deeper than the show atp. and up until that point, it really seemed like it was going to be him (at least to the audience anyway). but greg was feeling vulnerable and needed something, ANYTHING in that moment and katie didn’t give it to him. and when he tried to explain it to her later (albeit he couldve done it better), she still didn’t understand. she didn’t have to say ily, but literally any reassurance whatsoever wouldve helped. i know the hurt/comfort lover in me wouldve comforted and reassured the shit out of the man i love lol. so maybe greg just wasn’t the one and that’s why katie wasn’t able to do that with him, bc in the back of her mind she was in love with blake. and that’s fine too. but like,,, if that was the case then the whole drama and after the final rose thing couldve been avoided. i do think that greg handled it badly when they got into that argument and he left, and i also agree that if you truly love someone you wouldn’t give up so easily. but there’s a lot we don’t see bc of editing and like i said, katie wasn’t giving him anything probably bc she was in love with blake, and greg’s not stupid. she wouldn’t be that wrapped up in the show and other men still being there if he was the only one for her, but he wasnt. at the end of the day, they just weren’t compatible. greg seems like the type of person to have the words of affirmation love language lol and if katie wasn’t able to give that to him then he felt he needed to leave, and that’s his decision. i think the whole thing was just so messy and it makes sense that both of them felt so strongly about it (katie on after the final rose) bc there was so much feeling for each other and emotion wrapped into it. however either way it was for the best.
god all of this reminds that YEARS AGO i started a bachelorette au with the oc being the bachelorette and bts being the contestants LMAO and YOONGI AND OC GOT INTO SUCH AN ANGSTY TEAR-FILLED ARGUMENT V SIMILAR TO THIS ONE bc yoongi wanted to know if it was going to be him at the end and oc was like i can’t make that promise bc i still have three men left and yoongi was like “i don’t want my future wife to not know that she’s going to choose me” 😭 LITERALLY EXACTLY THE SAME OMFG except in mine it was a lot of crying and angst and hurt/comfort and there was smut involved LMAOO so very different 🤣

Hi! for the music ask thingy,,, can you do 1-3, 11-13, 16, 19, 36, 41, aannnddd 50 please! :D - 🐝✨
poggg thank u <333
Favourite song?
at the moment uhhh drunk with my friends by ashnikko, telepatĂ­a by kali uchis and porno by idk
Favourite band?
the neighbourhood tbh. love all their songs n think their aesthetic is cool too, although I'm not really invested in the members. alternatively, stray kids :]
An artist you don't get the hype for?
a lot of mainstream artists tbh but especially drake. ugly ass creep AND he has bad music. what is there to like?
Most underrated band?
I dont know?? depends on the genre tbh. I'm gonna say gorillaz here not bc they're unpopular/super underrated its just that a lot of people only know like their most popular songs and dont really know about them as a band or a lot of the cool shit jamie and damon have done with/by using gorillaz. I could elaborate more if that doesnt make much sense btw lol just ask :]
Favourite song released this year?
gonna be real, I've basically only listened to one new album this year and that was ashnikkos demidevil but I don't wanna give the same answer as earlier soooo best friend by saweetie and doja cat is poggers
Favourite nonbinary artist?
ATLAS!! HOLY FUCK ATLAS YALL
idk how many people were around/would know about this but in like 2016 or something (I have terrible sense of time it couldve been earlier or later) atlas came out with a song called letter to my freshman self which was really big in the anime community for edits but they didnt get a lot of attention for it for some reason?? anyways atlas has really good music, kinda lofi hiphop type stuff. would recommend the songs e[u].logy, they/them, valentine, back then, alarm and broken record :]
honorable mention: jazmin bean bc they makes me feel comfy in both my style and gender identity, also the music is just so fuckn banger. would recommend monster truck, slave 4 u, princess castle, yandere and worldwide torture
Best music platform?
I'm assuming this means for streaming so the obvious answer is spotify. it's good for making playlists, has a fun way to see what ur friends are listening to, has most of the shit I like and is just overall way more convenient than what I used to do which was pirate thousands of songs I like
An artist you've recently discovered?
I've known about jack stauber and mitski for years now and listened to like a few of their songs but recently I've been trying to listen to them more and it's been cool! idk if this really counts as a "recent discovery" but there isnt many other new artists I've looked into as of late
A song that fits your aesthetic?
man I just Do Not Have one single aesthetic I gotta have like 20. that being said if I had to give myself a specific aesthetic it would be "homosexual alt adhder who never takes their meds" and I think shut me up and/or I'm your problem now by mindless self indulgence fit that perfectly :)
alternatively: the home of 47 by trolleycat (r slur warning for this song btw)
Song you're listening to right now?
touch fluffy tail by ken ashcorp !!
How frequently do you listen to music?
everyday for at least a few hours while awake, then I also sleep while listening to music 👍

this is me tagging @hermit-crafting, i havent edited this either, but i might later
also, @chaotichelix i avenged your death >:Dc
TW: light gore(arm gets ripped off), blood
Their heart beat quickly in their chest, they were up at least two stories in a Jungle tree currently waiting for Helix to get the flower. They’d learned they’re patrol schedule enough to know were Helix would be and even made sure to put their name on the Tag.
The heat of the strange red Jungle was even more unbearable than the normal Jungle so they’d opted to take off their jacket and put it in front of them on the branch they were sitting on. However, that didn't help the stuffiness of the air, and the heat seemingly coming from the Crimson wood. How did those crazy nHo-ers deal with this?
Chattering from below them ripped them from their thoughts and saw Helix, Bon, and the new guy in a teal shirt and jeans surrounding the Tag flower. They quickly laid down on the log to not be spotted, letting out a small cry as the torturous heat from the log hit their cheek. They didnt think it couldve been that loud but opening up their eyes they didnt even realize they had closed, they saw the new guys bright orange eyes on them. ‘Welp, time to scarper, even if it wasnt in the original plan.’
Forgetting their jacket on the hot branch, they’ll get it later, they used the otherworldly vines to stumble their way down the tree. Once both feet were on the ground they fucking sprinted it, if anyone asked, they werent scared of that new guy, ‘oh but what a lie that is’ they thought to themself.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Soon they reached a clearing, and while most of the crimson has already overtaken this part of the Jungle, it was nice… until they heard the beating of wings. Shit.
They frantically looked around and a pit dropped in their stomach when they saw a large, winged shadow cross the clearing. They didnt remember seeing wings on the orange eyed guy but maybe they could transform or become possessed like Sage? If that was the case they were screwed, because the nHo were already bloodthirsty normally and if they got possessed… well it wont be good for them, they knew that.
Looking around the clearing again, straining their ears to hear anything actually backfired on them. Instead of the complete silence always talked about in books they heard many noises, from the new raspy chirp of the poor Crimson parrots to the new, larger, ocelots sprinting through the undergrowth with growls echoing through the Jungle. Turning around they swore they saw a pointed gray tail disappear behind a tree, seconds later, a figure, clouded in shadows jumped from one tree to the other and stayed there. They couldnt see he’s eyes but they knew he was staring them down. It sent shivers down their spine; their legs locked themselves in place so they couldn't run away.
They watched him run up the trees faster than any normal human could, then again the horns, wings, and tail probably meant they were a transformed demon of some sort. ‘That didnt help anything’.
Moments later they heard a shrill cackle echo through the Jungle, what the fuck is with this guy, if he’s trying to scare me it sure as hell is working. The cackle died down into a much deeper chuckle and then stopped. They heard leather wings flapping again and turned around; well, tried to. Jungle vines had crawled up their legs and were still climbing. ‘So thats why I can't move’. They started struggling and moving their legs the best they could to get them off but before theyd gotten very far the guy came into view.
They watched him come into view on their left side and their heart stopped. He was so much more terrifying up close.
He was over 6 feet tall and his left eye was completely black, from what they could see, and his right eye had what looked like a crown of wither roses covering it. They could see his black wings tucked neatly onto his back and what little sun poked through the branches reflected on his curved horns that went out away from his head and made them gleam. This isnt what was supposed to happen at all.
He continued walking until he was right in front of them and stopped. He had sharp canine teeth and behind those, where teeth that came out and curved, kind of like a piglins except farther back in the mouth.
He looked at them straight in the eye and grinned, then said something in a language they didnt know. His grin faltered and turned into a look of disappointment, then quickly went straight back into a grin.
Lil, felt more vines reaching their arms and pulled them closer to their body. The moment they did that they felt a strong grip on their right arm and then a sharp, blinding pain, almost like their arm got ripped off, and they screamed. Looking over at their arm it turns out, it was ripped off, tears streaked down their face.
Looking back to where the guy used to be the only thing they saw was their dismembered arm with a Tag around it and then they passed out…

(Un)popular Opinions ep 9!
wowowoow so like... this whole thing was a R O L L E R C O A S T E R and like ten times worse cuz im so emotionally fragile after all of this is over djfhjkhfggj
this turned into “what i liked abt each performance” instead of unpopular opinions BUT i still added some throughout so :^) 
OK LETS GET INTO IT :D 
so honesty hour~ i was scared when Seunghun was joining treasure 5... NOT that i think hes untalented in any way shape or form, but he’s the oldest and it seemed like the group would be seunghun + the kids LMAO 
BUT I WAS SURPRISED (not rly) that he fit so well into Going Crazy ??? Like i was so shook that seunghun could sing any song and totally slay it ,, like wowowow he keeps surpassing my expectations
i screamed when he appeared on stage
BOOMERANG PERF ! : ) 
ok ok okokokok for those who dont know... jihoon .... is my bias and this performance i have been dreading looking forward to the entire week
i know YG edited it and made it seem like Boomerang was too powerful and strong for dohwan and yeongue, but honestly, out of all the groups, i think boomerang was most suited for this team ,,, 
like yeongue??? singing daehwi’s parts?? i didnt know i needed that til now... their voices are so similiar (like tone and style) and their dancing was similar as well !! 
 all of them were so good? like dohwan is an amazing dancer + vocalist and yoshinori..... really.... wearing that... rapping like that.... sgjdfghsfdjgh
plus,,, where are those ppl who were calling jihoon untalented?? BOY WAS LITERALLY THE MAIN VOCAL IN THE PERFORMANCE U HOES
anyways, choi hyunsuk......... he is an amazing leader wowow like when he was leading the boys in the rehearsal and shouting at them while they were literally on stage kdfjdhskd  that was a side of him we hadnt seen before
and the fact that he choreographed the dance breaks ?!?!? like he couldve asked jihoon to help him, but the fact that he carried that on his own is AMAZING ... they truly had the hardest dance to learn and when they made it themselves,, it made everything 10x cooler 
GROWL TEAM !
well ,,, this was depressing cuz i knew only one of them would survive ... 
tbh my pick wouldnt have been junghwan, it wouldve been jongseob, but i agree that junghwan did very well !! like he has lots of stage experience and knows what to do on stage ,,,, i mean jongseob too but idk man he is underrated : / 
anyways , DUMB AND DUMBER PERFORMANCE !
ok like from that teaser... we all knew they were going to win ... it was just expected with confetti guns and backup dancers 3 members of team a +mashi and yoonbin,, all very talented boys and mashi has been training for a long time as well 
in my opinion, this song suited Byounggon and Doyoung the most! they really caught my eye in this performance !! like i knew they were going to win as soon as Byounggon yelled “PARTY PEOPLE~~” like...ok byounggon if u wanted my attention, all u had to do was just ask ;-;
byounggon looked really good in this perf... like really good..... too good *chokes*JFGKDGJKJSGF
im usually not fond of that “wet hair” style,,, but it looked so good on him...... /i cant breathe/
ALSO Doyoung’s singing??? i knew he was a good singer but this song really suited his voice and i got chills when he sang 
anyways, DNA TEAM ! :D 
they were amazing as well !! :D but their stage wasnt as flashy cuz DNA isnt really a flashy song,, its very straightforward LOL
anyways,,,,, yedam and seunghun’s high note was a literal out of body experience like i cant even function thinking abt it cuz it was so beautiful ... it was so flawless as well ... 
they sang so smoothly together ... i’ll never be over it ... 
i wish i could actually see them tho wtf was that green lighting
also can we appreciate how hard yedam works? i know lots of ppl say yyg exaggerates yedam’s talent and basically calls him a God LMAO ,,, but like,,, after this ,,, he truly is a genius cuz i cant even fathom learning a dance and song in an hour tops wowowow on top of studying for exams??and how much stress that is ?? i can barely eat when im studying for exams oml
.... he really is amazing ... and doesnt deserve all the shit yg throws at him 
OVERALL ! 
ok ok ok so now it gets controversial 
ELIMINATIONS : ( 
ok so as expected, Keita and Seunghun were eliminated which was such a shit move on yg’s part :/ like Keita is the longest running japanese trainee and seunghun is the longest running korean trainee... like wtf
and before i get shit for this, obviously i didnt want any of DNA team to be eliminated (i dont want anyone to be eliminated period),,, but c’mon ,, a 14 year old who has been training for not even a year VS 9 year and 5 year trainees ... ,, i’l admit, i think seunghun deserved that spot, 
and jeongwoo thought so too ,, like the look in jeongwoo’s eyes were not “oh yay i won!!” they were “me park jeongwoo??” kdfjdgkhsfd ,, he looked at seunghun immediately which was so sad cuz these trainees dont even have the time to be happy for themselves cuz they are too busy feeling sad for their friends... ... /sigh/
ok boomerang elimination time freaked me TF out cuz jihoon is my bias of like the entire show and ;-;;;;;;;;; jihoon ;-;;;;;; like obviously hyunsuk was expected, but i was thinking yoshinori or jihoon? really dont know with yg :/  
bUT IM SO HAPPY JIHOON MADE IT AJFKDFJSKGJ  like yes i love Yoshinori but ugh my heart hurts for jihoon .. he’s been through so much ... (but later i felt better keke)
and after those eliminations were over,,, like hyunsuk’s crying really got to me... he was crying ever since seunghun was eliminated and we all know hyunsuk cannot hide his emotions for shit so he was covering his ears during DNA eliminations and he apologized multiple times to the boomerang team and looked SO guilty... my heart ached hearing his sobs... they sounded so child-like and pitiful. it really put things into perspective ;-; 
before this, i was unsure if hyunsuk was fit to be a leader, not cuz he cant lead, but cuz he’s so emotional ... but after boomerang team, i think he really can lead Team A if/when they debut... like wow he was a really amazing leader and sometimes showing/feeling emotion can be good as a role model ... but ofc all team a members are amazing leaders LOL (also jihoon aka leader of team b)
ok i already said my peace abt growl so yeet ,,, was expected and i heard spoilers... /sigh/
and ok ok ,,, so i truly think Dumb and Dumber deserved to win,, but all the groups did so well ! i enjoyed all of them except growl tbh (maybe cuz that song has been covered so many times and im lowkey sick of it sdlkjfhdsjgs) but !! they all worked so hard :’(    
ALSO THAT ENDING AHAHAHAHA :))))
i believe the trainees who come back are Seunghun (i know it is LMAO) and Yoshinori(??) i say that cuz the camera zoomed on Treasure J members and Haruto opened his arms up for a hug !! and i feel like he would do that for another one of his members kldsjfdgahfjd 
PLUS Hyunsuk looked so happy and i know that happiness was directed at Seunghun too, but Yoshinori was also on his team which probs made him feel so much happier !! 
****** Another side note: Seunghun is LITERALLY SO UNLUCKY & HAS IT SO BAD ... like first, he lost against Mashiho when he was chosen by the 100 treasure makers (mashi was chosen by yg). then he won against yoonbin and yeongue, but was called out by everyone by being a popularity contest (which no one is complaining about now even tho these performances were all chosen by the fans ahah funny weird lmao ahah more sarcasm) + YG didnt even compliment him and/or Byounggon ?? :///  
AND ON TOP OF ALL THAT, he gets chosen to be in the Treasure 5, which i was initially SO excited for, but then D&D wins over the Treasures, leaving seunghun to be eliminated...he can never truly win ... + the only time he got complimented was right before he was eliminated, so waht the fuck...
we really though yedam was the protagonist of this show but UHH we thought wrong: it’s Seunghun !! :)))
also my inbox is open to im open to debating/talking/crying/screaming over all of this dksflhdsgkjhasf also fangirl/boying is allowed :^) especially about jihoon

re: drama with comet-of-sin and buttonprince- a comprehensive compilation
EDIT: buttons urls are now @xbuttonprince (art blog) and @fedora-cat (main blog) buttons main blog is @buttonprince again. they still have fedora-cat though.
EDIT: july 4 moon changed his url to @comet-of-sin-gone. as of july 12 its been changed again to @people-eating-bed-gremlin
EDIT: july 21 gumwindow is alive and has kept their blog set up to where it looked as if they were dead for an extended period of time. when called on it they are saying im stalking them and that i “wish they were dead”. (ctrl + f to EDIT 8) (i also added proof that was nebula said was said in a public server.)
this is a record of everything that has happened between me, moon(comet-of-sin), button(buttonprince), nebula(gumwindow), hayden(erezar-zaral-rezanova), and their friends, et cetera. you can reblog this if you choose, or dont, i dont care.
if anyone wants to accuse me of “hiding information” youre welcome to post whatever fucking information im “hiding”! :) what i post is everything that is shown to me that is relevant. i have literally nothing to hide, as im not fucking ashamed of spreading awareness about, blocking, and avoiding transphobes and racists. especially the ones that misgender me and call me slurs.
tw for slurs under the cut; this post is VERY LONG.
preface: for the most part this is in the chronological order that i learned the information in.
THE ORIGINAL POST:
so all of this started when i checked out button’s main blog after seeing their ask blog in the (starbound) tag- i checked their about because i check the abouts of everyone i follow. after i saw some things listed on their about as dislikes i got pretty uncomfortable. i made this post:
Tumblr media
(link to the post)
you can clearly say the post says “dont reblog this”- the original post said this in the tags. i editted it so that it was clearly on the actual post itself. i reblogged it to the sunrunnercrew blog with the captain “DO NOT REBLOG THIS” in caps. this post was aimed specifically at my mutuals, mostly, an my followers. whether or not you agree with me making the post does not excuse any of what happened next.
THE IMS:
the tumblr ims, aka the calm before the storm. buttonprince apparently followed the sunrunnercrew blog and im’d me about it- which you know what? fair. they did not bother to explain their “opinions”, in case i had misunderstood them (which i doubt), and instead went on tangents about how “opinions dont hurt anyone”
i do not have access to the full conversation because the blog has since become a group blog with more than one member, and button dosent have access to the ims either because they blocked the sunrunnercrew blog.
i do have these screenshots which i admit make it look one sided. you can take a look at them in this imgur album (x)
note: they blocked my sideblog. i had assumed they blocked my main, so in future asks when i say “they blocked me” i did not actually know they hadn’t blocked my main (which they admit later on).
i also had im conversations with 2 other people who had reblogged the original post, but i blocked them because i was receiving copious amounts of hate after the buttonprince im conversation!
THE ASKS:
during the time after i messaged buttonprince i several hate messages of varying degrees of dumbassery and actual hate-level, ranging from being passive aggressive about how i “couldve been nicer” to slurs that were specifically listed on my blacklist after i mentioned my blacklist. these arent in chronological order, my archive is sort of hard to navigate when posts are this close together.
(x) (x) (x) (x) (x) (x) (x) (x) (x) (x) (x) (x*) (x) (x) (x) (x) (x) (x) (x) (x) (x) (x) 
*at this point i thought it was either button or one of the people who was also currently iming me at this point. i now suspect moon and button were probably talking about me in their discord server when all these messages were sent.
asks i didnt post:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
note: some of mutuals also received asks similar to these but im not going to draw them into this any further.
they also answered this ask about me. this is when i stopped checking their blog completely until the recent drama (last night- 1/19/18 & 1/20/18)
Tumblr media
note: the “shota” they drew was not “years ago” it was december 2016- just over A YEAR ago. granted if i wouldve known this i wouldve never posted it but they just straight up defended themself drawing it anyway after it was pointed out.
MOONS INVOLVEMENT:
so this is where everything gets really and truly fucked up. moon had defended/promo’d buttonprince after the whole drama, which in itself is fine and all i didnt care. but then they messaged one of my friends with the intent of getting them to stop talking to me or look down on me. they told him something that was the most absurd fucking jump to conclusions ive ever seen, and no matter how much they say they “never said the person was actually me” i cannot for the life of me fathom why theyd mention it in the first place if it wasnt to paint me as the assailant or directly responsible (which is ironic because they never wanted to take responsibility for the shit i received when they were talking about in their server!)
this is what they sent to my friend:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
they also sent him this to show him the person who spammed their server:
Tumblr media
(fullview)
Tumblr media
i am not affiliated with this person at all and this assumption is fucking rediculous considering i was informed of the server they were talking about me in by another mutual of mine- before this i never even knew the server EXISTED.
this is my discord:
Tumblr media
now of course when i learned all of this i was absolutely furious. one of my friends offered to join the server and see what they were talking about me. im going to be absolutely honest and say i was APALLED at the sheer AMOUNT of SHIT they said about me behind my back. things started falling into place- THIS was why i was getting all this hate. because moon opened this drama up into their incredibly popular public fucking server.
im not going to post every little screenshot because, like i said, the sheer amount is absolutely absurd. theres three imgur albums worth of screenshots of shit they said about me that you can sort through, that will be linked at the end of the screens, if youre interested in sifting through it all. heres some hi-lights:
Tumblr media
(fullview)
Tumblr media
(fullview)
Tumblr media
(i.e. they wanted to check my blog constantly to continue drama by posting it in their server.)
Tumblr media
(fullview)
hint: talking about someone starting drama constantly is not the best way to keep yourself under the radar!
Tumblr media
(fullview) admitting they dont have my main blog blocked
Tumblr media
(fullview)
Tumblr media
(fullview)
Tumblr media
(fullview) admitting they dont give a shit i was recieving hate and shit on my blacklist
Tumblr media
(fullview)
Tumblr media
moon admitting to messaging one of my mutuals (not that they HAD to admit it lmfao)
Tumblr media
its about you because you dragged my friends into it.
Tumblr media
(fullview) checking up on my blog constantly. they messaged me right after i started posting about this. ill link my actual posts in the next part, when they actually talked to me. this ones just about whats been said in the discord
Tumblr media
(fullview)
Tumblr media
(fullview) moon screenshotting themselve saying the “go ahead and post this” shit. (they then preceded to get mad i actually posted shit lmfao). this is another thing ill talk about in the next part.
Tumblr media
(fullview) bragging about not getting anon hate but laughing because i did. classy. also “this is why i started unbound-stars” what to stroke your ego and talk about drama that had nothing to do with you?
Tumblr media
(fullview) button misgendering me and no one correcting it. i know they knew i was trans, everyone in that server knew i was trans, because they called me a disgrace to and “not an example of the entire trans community”. my pronouns are in my description. they checked up on my blog enough times to know this. if were going to be technical them using they/them for me constantly is also misgendering since my pronouns are clearly right fucking there in my description but you know what ill let that slide. but this? button used gender neutral pronouns for me before what suddenly made it ok to misgender me here?
they never apologized for this and instead blamed them misgendering me on my own self. ill mention this in the next part as well.
Tumblr media
(fullview) button admitting it was one of their fucking friends who sent me atleast one of the asks with slurs in them.
this isnt even half of what they said about me in their server. you can check out the full imgur albums here: (x) (x) (x)
MOONS INVOLVEMENT PART 2:
as previously mentioned i made some vague posts after i figured out moon had messaged one of my friends:
Tumblr media
(link to post)
i did not mention moons name or url here. they only knew it was about them from checking my blog themself.
Tumblr media
(link to post)
moon then messaged me themself.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
they sent me this ask after their first one. i didnt save a pic of my response to this one but im sure they posted it in the discord server if you are really and truly curious. 
now lets break this down: “none of those hate messages were from me nor my followers. i hope.” is such a weak excuse. they posted all of this bullshit in their discord server of 80 people, something they said themself (again, screenshots of that in a second) and literally liveblogged it to them there. this is a bold-faced lie and a piss poor job of covering their tracks and trying to place nice with me.
anyway i messaged them on im because its easier and talking through asks takes longer + ask limit, etc. i have an imgur album of screenshots of every thing we BOTH said. im not going to bother posting hi-lights here. itd do you better to read the entire conversation than to look at things out of context. (x)
AFTER MOONS ASKS:
i @’d button in a post pointing out that they misgendered me. yes. i admit it! i @’d button. they couldve avoided that if they had me blocked in the first place, but they didnt “to keep up with drama”
and anyway i think pointing out that someone deliberately misgendered me is a fair fucking reason to @ them no? well see i would not have included this at all if button had just, you know, apologized for misgendering me! mistakes happen after all but this wasnt a fucking mistake. my pronouns are clearly listed in my description- obviously they had been checking my blog consistantly enough to see everything i posted, there is absolutely no fucking way they didnt see my pronouns. 
anyway this is how they responded:
Tumblr media
CONTINUING to misgender me and then blaming me for it! classy
anyway heres how theyre handling the drama now 8)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
thats all. this post will be updated with new information if need be. this post was made 1/20/2018
EDIT 2: ive decided fuck it. heres the rest of what was in the #drama chat that was “private”
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
ok im sorry this ones just so fucking funny it literally does not mean kill yourself its a dumb funny insult thats harmless ylal are digging too deep to find meaning in shit that has none but whatever
Tumblr media Tumblr media
everyone just accepts this at face value...
Tumblr media
again everyones just accepting this at face value...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
shitting on someone who had absolutely nothing to do with anything.
Tumblr media
anyway in moons shitty followup callout they said that i send this persons girlfriend death threats about cookie run. “years ago”. i downloaded the fucking game last fucking month. you can find where i talk about that (here)
moon has refused to take this absolute crock of shit back. at this point its a blatant ass lie.
EDIT 3: definitive proof button is truscum
click here 
EDIT 4: february 11 2018 is a cursed date
button reblogged this post from me (^ my version of the post is in edit 3)
of course i said something (click here)
button made this post:
Tumblr media
(link to post) 
seeing as how they wanted me to respond directly i sure as fuck did!
Tumblr media
(it goes from bottom to top in order)
i decided, after a while of no response,  to dm them about a screen! well more shit ensued. heres a link to our ENTIRE conversation (considering how i always get bitched out about not posting the WHOLE story 8) !)
@gumwindow nice to know you dont mind transmeds!
EDIT 5 may 13 2018:
https://2o8.tumblr.com/post/173852074905/are-you-okay-what-happened
moon attempted to apologize, but not directly to, or about, me because apparently talking to me is traumatizing lol
EDIT 6 may 26 2018:
zinc threw an absolute fucking fit. it was kinda funny. then they made their blog inactive, turned off @’s, and it can only be viewed through tumblr mobile. lol
heres the links
https://2o8.tumblr.com/post/174275538005/starbounds-gumwindow-a-warning-for-my
https://2o8.tumblr.com/post/174275922575/gumwindow-this-will-be-one-of-my-last-posts
https://2o8.tumblr.com/post/174280354485/starbounds-gumwindow-for-the-others-who-have
EDIT 7:
moon password protected @comet-of-sin, changed his url to @comet-of-sin-gone on july 4th. 
Tumblr media
posted this. apparnetly his server was raided and he blames it on me because i screened his post where he advertised his shitty server (you know, the SAME ONE he and his friends misgendered me and called me a thing in.) 
this is the post i made screenshotting his server advertisement post. (also includes a screen of something he had to say about me and one of my friends a few days before)
Tumblr media
him being like “im not the people i associate with” like...bro...lol 
hes changed the url of @comet-of-sin-gone to
http://people-eating-bed-gremlin.tumblr.com/
so hes still like, you know, there. lol
also hes still active on his nsfw blog (which, before anyone calls me out for looking. this is the very first post as of the time this update is posted and his nsfw blog is literally linked IN HIS ABOUT.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
im not actually gonna. link the blog bc You Know. its right there in his about though so...go find it yourself.
EDIT 8 7/21/18: 
shortly after gumwindow (about a week or two) made the posts linked in edit 6 their accounts were deleted and the urls saved to this:
Tumblr media
i have as of july 21st spoken to nebula (gumwindow) myself on discord, and for decency reasons, because the conversation didnt go off horribly, im not going to post screens. plus they arent really necessary and dont give out any new info so. if nebula wants to post screens of the conversation themself theyre free to, i have nothing to hide from that conversation
anyway
Tumblr media Tumblr media
theyre fine.
there were alot of inconsistancies with this conversation, mostly excuses about how they didnt know about button, and not knowing that transmed=truscum (???) and that they just werent thinking when making those posts (again linked in edit 6) but its not important enough to add here.
EDIT 9 7/24/2018
im so tired.
saw nebula changed their title to this
Tumblr media
so i messaged them about it
Tumblr media Tumblr media
they blocked me
now their blog looks like this
Tumblr media
im so fucking tired.  this is how our discord conversation ended (providing minimal screens bc i dont wanna get yelled at lol)
Tumblr media
(fullview)
the day i contacted them on discord they posted in the (again, public) server my friend originally found them in (there were originally images but i am removing them for reasons.) saying i was stalking them or whatever... same issue as always, this is a public server, if i can go in there myself and literally anyone could screenshot stuff then its not...really stalking.
with all that said, everything nebula said here was in a public server that one of my friends was in. and i have no intention on keeping up with anything else they have to say about me. like, im done! im absolutely fucking exhausted i really just wish yall would stop lying about me.
heres proof that the server is public:
Tumblr media
inb4 anyone asks why i cropped the url of the server, its because i dont want to get accused of inciting a raid. as far as im aware the person who posted this is the host of this server, and this was the same server nebula posted in. as you can see it is very much public. thanks.
EDIT 10: 
Tumblr media
EDIT 11: 8/17/18
my friend reblogged this post (the one you are looking at right now) to boost because button started posting in the starbound tag again.
i made this post (click the link)
originally the post said button was cis, this was an assumption i made because in a previous post a while back button had said they dont consider themself trans. i was wrong, i admit it yes i was wrong for assuming button was cis; it is not my place to explain why button said this as it is not my personal life story and i dont care that much however, the point is, button is not cis and i was wrong. my mistake. sorry about that.
here is the post where button confirmed they are not cis, and my apology.
this does not change the fact that button:
1) is a transmed
2) is racist (believes in reverse racism)
3) hates “fat acceptance”
4) misgendered me, called me slurs, and still to this day refuses to apologize for that.
today alot happened. i got alot of anons. mostly hate. heres all the ones i posted (in order):
x 2 asks in one post, x, x, x, x, x, x, x, x (not hate), x 2 asks in one post, x also 2 asks in one post, x, x
heres the ones i DIDNT post:
Tumblr media
heres button continuing to misgender me even today, after they said they did it ~accidentally~
thats p much all that happened today in relation to this drama, i geuss.
the next day (8/18/18):
x, x, x,
Tumblr media
im not bothering censoring this one like whats the point lol

now im watching last week’s ep of tco4 bc i havent had time to get to it yet and i need to take my mind off snzm 
UGH its sad to hear xy, fsc and xiao huang talking about their rankings rip but their laughing makes it even more sad
UGH NOT FRUIT PLANET I REALLY LIKE THEMMMM sigh i gotta face the reality that theyre likely gonna get separated... but PLEASE AT LEAST SOMEONE SAVE XIAO ZHI PLEASE THATS ALL I ASK, im not gonna be greedy :(
oof i respect ma zhe saying that he doesnt want to win bc he recognizes other kids like FRUIT PLANET KIDS, zy and xiao zhi, are so skilled. he knows winning is just a numbers game and would not serve as proof of his skill. thats a tough place to be in, and it isnt uncommon but i think i rarely hear a contestant say it like that. “i dont want to win bc im not worthy” “i dont want to win bc i know im not as talented” 
wow i was a little confused as to why they were doing these solo spotlights but actually this is really nice! its nice to see them really going hard at their strengths and really pouring their all in to show off a bit. it can be hard to do so in a group setting all the time, and really it reminds you that there a lot of really talented musicians among these kids. i think itll also be good to remind the kids who are picking later what the other kids’ skills are and what they’re capable of. 
oh whoa i thought about there only being 2 bassists, i didnt realize there are only 2 pianists too
hm maybe im just biased but i thought xiao li’s playing was a litttleee bit cleaner than szb’s heheh but i respect that they attempted to even play a duet from across the room, thats a challenge 
i respect muji’s playing 
LOL why do xiao huang and zhao ke’s voices singing together sound so strange to me LOL 
LOL switch to ljt’s group and im just !!!!! HIS VOICE !!!! I LOVE LIAO JUNTAO’S VOICEEE and also the cafe vibe is so him LOL this group is so him
wait so someone explain to me why ljt wasnt in the solo section? is he considered a vocal? but what about his guitar skills?? 
im kinda sad jym isnt smiling when drumming anymore :\ 
YAY FRUIT PLANET !! i love how happy xiao zhi and wsh look when playing hahah 
AW talking about xiao zhi being like a dad and 包容 and taking care of them im ughhhh UGH THIS IS A MINI XIAO ZHI FEATURE IM CRYINGGGG THIS CHILD DESERVES THIS “the one who’s left standing when everyone else falls down” hes just so supportive and warm.. ugh watching him break down crying thinking about all he couldve done better and you can tell he feel so guilty and blames himself that fruit planet isnt doing well
HAHAHAHA EVERYONE WANTS XIAO ZHI !!! except szb lol but at least i know if they do get disbanded, hopefully xiao zhi will still be safe :’) im glad they all recognize his talent and the importance of having a bassist!!! 
oof xiao xiong talking about hyt being overbearing and reminding him of his ANGRY DAD thats a big ouch. it is true that xiao xiong’s skill level may not be up to hyt’s standards, but i can see hyt doesnt respect him enough as a team member. the more familiar hyt gets with him, the more he isnt afraid to show his true feelings of frustration. esp bc theyre in such a stressful situation, it must be rough as a leader. also seems rough for xiao li to be stuck in between this. from the beginning hyt has shown himself to have high standards and he demands high quality so he isnt gonna be the soft, encouraging leader xiao xiong probably would prefer, unfortunately. ouch the way hyt straight up says “this is going to be painful” like theres nothing he can do about it and they just have to accept it. like ps says, he’s not good at understanding other people’s feelings, like he doesnt seem to be willing to try to understand xiao xiong’s. 
the way hyt lists what other people are doing and then asks xiao xiong “那你呢?” ouch........ that seems really mean? manipulative? harsh? but at the same time, we dont really know all the context so this is just want tencent wants us to think.
hyt also wants xiao zhi???? I cant imagine xiao zhi in this group, even tho itd probably be good for his possible debuting prospects, but xiao zhi gives me such a laid back, warm, taking care of everyone, creating a nice, supportive environment type of leader, and this group is literally the opposite of that??? ugh and yet, despite their superior group environment, fruit planet is at risk of getting disbanded... so sad. 
man with the way these votes are trending hyt is gonna win and ljt wont debut? :(
lol tencent cutting the speeches of less popular contestants not surprised 
wait wat. isnt qiang ge very popular??? what happened to his votes? wait what. im confused. what???
LOL FRUIT PLANET IS SAFE IM SO RELIEVED HAHAH okay i know i came into this show for ljt but xiao zhi has become one of my picks too, i cant deny anymore LOL and also xiao li -- but hyt’s group’s dynamic makes me feel uncomfortable at the moment. but yea ljt, xiao zhi, xiao li are my top 3... too bad they DEF wont be in the same group / wouldnt mesh well in a group together LOL 
i love fruit planet group dynamic :’) watching them talk to each other just makes me smile
OH MY GOODNESS XIAO LI IS LEAVING?????? i can understand though, this grouping is not ideal from a music making standpoint either, like why are there so many vocalists lol but also i respect that hes putting his music first and he knows what he wants and needs for his music. even if it means leaving hyt who is basically a guarantee for popularity on this show. im so surprised xiao xiong isnt saying he will leave too.. or even hyt himself at this point. theyre all just... crying.... but honestly how can they make music without xiao li??? 
AWH my heart.... xiao li asking xiao xiong “你會恨我嗎?” i have never felt “do you hate me” hit me in the feels like this before. its such an OOF. and xiao xiong saying hes super close to xiao li, you can tell hes been under such emotional duress and xiao li has supported him through and now hes just conflicted between betraying hyt (who he wouldnt be here without) and suffering with hyt without xiao li there to help. this is so sad to watch..... ok but honestly just seeing how in this emotional time, ma zhe and xiao xiong are talking to xiao li and NOT hyt says something about how theyre afraid to touch him. 
what xiao li says about hyt being kidnapped by his popularity makes so much sense, with what hyt said about chasing after his expectations and trying to live up to them. hes really not relaxed. ever. and i think thats what xiao li doesnt want to work with. i respect that he wants to be recognized for his music rather than just be recognized. 
wat is this show doing why did they just stop and let them wallow in their feelings for hours??? wtf?? i mean i appreciate they respect that its a difficult and important decision but shouldnt they make them move on more efficiently?? what a waste of everyone’s time...
lol hyt learning some eq? yes you have to take care of your group members’ feelings, theyre people....
L O L XIAO LI GOING BACK ON HIS DECISION IM DYINGG HAHHAHAHAHHAHA WHAT A WASTE OF EVERYONES TIME HAHAHHAHA WHAT IS THIS SHOW. but okay yes i respect xiao li for having the guts to say he wants to leave, bc that hopefully gave hyt the wake up call he needed. BUT ALSO i do think staying with hyt makes sense career-wise. gaining popularity first isnt a bad thing. and he can always (continue to) prove his worth and make all different types of songs in the future, whether during or after his time with hyt. but staying with hyt = exposure, and thats never a bad thing. its just... hopefully they can resolve their emotional issues from here on out.
technically the smart move is to pick a popular contestant like zhao ke, to boost your group’s popularity overall. BUT hyt is so popular it really doesnt matter LOL 
L O L xiao li being like well i cant get the group i want anyway, so idgaf lets just keep on “戲劇化” HAHAHAHHA he gives no effs anymore
but also i cant imagine them with another non-instrumentalist LOL and what kind of style will they have now? 
ok wait let me go back to look at this:
Tumblr media
hm yea the only other person of choice that would be helpful for votes is qiang ge. but i also cant imagine him on fruit planet???? ugh i wonder if qiang ge turned them down bc he feels like he’d ruin them like he blames himself for ruining his past groups. 
i cant believe xiao li said he tried to talk to qiang ge for 3 hours until 6am... to convince him to come to fruit planet? wild. 
UGH so sad that fruit planet didnt get a successful pick but honestly i am kinda glad mty didnt agree bc i kinda really would like to continue seeing xiao zhi play bass..... but ofc i guess it would be nice for him to show other skills too, ah im conflicted. but he really looks so carefree and like hes having so much fun when playing bass, id hate to take that away
LOL BASICALLY SZB CONFESSING TO MUJI HAHAHHAHAHA IS THIS A HIGH SCHOOL DRAMA ALL THE SUDDEN HAHAHHAHA actually i havent seen them interact before but i can kinda see muji’s personality meshing with their group’s, like hes kinda quirky and strange too LOL its cool they do get along tho
OOF SO MANY REJECTIONS. but also muji’s right, last time he wasnt strong enough, so i respect that hes really trying this time. 
omg szb throwing a tantrum and trying to force muji’s hand is not very respectful to muji’s wishes and it makes muji look like a bad guy :( im glad muji’s standing his ground tho, this is not the time to indulge a child’s tantrum lol
on the bright side, i love xiao zhi’s laugh, so at least we got something out of this LOL
Tumblr media
LOL xy so easily pulling fsc over LOL why cant they all be like this LOL save tencent editing time LOL 
i knew there were too many emotions on ljt’s team........ i cant believe as soon as szb is like marginally okay, jym is like NOPE....... L O L 
.....i cant believe..... they’re just.... cutting it off...... like this....... WHAT IS THIS SHOW AHHAHAHAH okayyyyyyyyyyyy thennnnnnnn 
oof wasnt 車站 ljt’s last song before elimination? i just got hit with a wave of sadness and memories oof i wasnt ready 
man its so interesting bc i feel like on other shows, the contestants are always like “i dont want to get eliminated!” but here its like “i dont feel like i can fit into their music, id rather be eliminated.” its an interestingly different type of setting. i respect that they respect their own music, but i guess theyre not thinking enough about their future career progression? if they really want to make it in the music industry? idk. its interesting bc i feel like ljt has struggled so hard since getting eliminated from the first season that i assume / hope he has more of a mindset of wanting to make it to the end.
anyway im kinda surprised fruit planet made it so high LOL but yay for them, i really wonder what will happen with them picking their 5th member. im surprised qiang ge’s votes are so low? itll be sad if he really leaves though. ugh only 2 out of 4 groups successfully regrouped and one of them took an extra 2 hours to decide.... lol. i still dont understand why that was allowed in the first place but okay. this is the most struggle elimination ep ive ever seen LOL

'Disaster Management' Or 'Management Disaster'? We Have A List ... So Far
And it will be hard to argue that the whatever management disaster from the council is determined after this is all over, it started long before the rain. Suddenly Mayor Mullet has an unexpected and unwelcome election campaign issue on her hands will her inevitable spin as heroine of the hour hold up to scrutiny? At The Astonisher, has the worm turned? Jenna Cairney took an early swipe at the mayor, even before it got really bad and allows a developer to stick in the boot as well two more another reasons its called the Astonisher. And heres another are you sitting down? The Magpie gives the paper top marks for its coverage of the floods. No, seriously. Theres a very good explanation for it and therein lies a glaringly obvious and valuable lesson for editor Cairney (when shes doing her job, she editor, when not, shes iditor). and The Magpie points out how tomorrows (Monday local) American Super Bowl organisers have missed the ratings bonanza of a lifetime, which couldve doubled their already massive audience. But to start this week The Irony Award of the Decade. To head up this weeks offering, pride of place goes to the great Bentley, who counts among his many skills a very sharp memory which recalls things that some would rather he forget.
Tumblr media
Which swiftly brings us to the nub of things for this week. Its The Vision Thing, Stupid There are those poor agitated souls who suggest the The Magpie writes with the benefit of 20/20 hindsight. To which the obvious reply is that of course he does, because he doesnt make the decisions that affect us as a community, and merely comments on those decisions that have been made by others. While being wise after the event is always irritating (The Magpies mission) what this town REALLY needs is a big dose of decision-makers being wise BEFORE the event. This weeks excessive dampness and the public doubts that have appeared over the councils disaster management ability brings up a case in point. There will most certainly be a post-monsoon post-mortem into the disaster management decision-making process and crucially the timing of opening the Ross Dam flood gates; when a legal authority like a council deliberately floods ratepayers homes and businesses, there sure as hell MUST be a post mortem as legal eagles start circling. For the greater good doesnt always cut in matters of compensation. Then there have been confidence-sapping instances like this, too, after flooding had started.
Tumblr media
That, and many comments to this blog about timing and pre-organisation of sandbags some places plenty of sand but no bags, others, plenty of both but no shovels, and a dearth of relatively inexpensive mechanical bagging machinery have been sent in. And there is a dire warning for all property owners even when the waters recede any insurance premiums are likely to be through the roof, if they can be obtained at all more on that in a moment. And the responsibility for this situation must lie somewhere. It has all led one frustrated leading businessman who wishes to remain anonymous for prudent reasons considering the current vindictive regime in Walker Street to post the following to The Nest: Jenna Cairney who I believe moved out of her unit on the Strand to a house at Railway Estate affected by the flood wrote on the Bulletins Facebook updates 31/1/19 that the Bulletin forecasts on rain have been running since 6 am on the 30th, yet the disaster centre didnt start updating until more than seven hours later1.36 pm . Jenna claimed the $8.5 mil disaster centre was left flat footed with residents having to reach out to the Astonisher for advice.
Tumblr media
Jenna concludes with We are constantly told to be prepared for major weather events . The local Disaster Co-ordination Centre also needs to heed the advice. Our angry commenter continues: Jenna isnt the only person commenting negatively on the new $8.5 mil centre. I have just received a text to mobile and recorded messages to both my home and business landlines but it seems too late. My daughter in Hermit Park woke to over a foot of water Friday 1st at 7 am, today its up to her shoulders and her car totally submerged! Conjecture will continue but my concerns are: -did former TCC CEO Adele Young cut back on preventative maintenance, and, with over a third of T.C.Cs staff made redundant, did they lose invaluable experience to leave us more susceptible to flooding, and other natural disasters and -if they knew the rain would continue, did they have the technology to predict they should have opened the flood gates earlier. If not, why not? I think there is going to an absolute bun fight with insurance companies wanting hydrologists reports and my concerns is more Townsville residents will be left with an inability to get contents/ house insurance. While to some it may seem churlish to be looking at this questions and failings before the danger is not yet over, it is legitimate for them to be considered in the light that there are yet many more decisions to be made including the alarming but necessary fore-warning that much further rain could threaten 20,000 homes
Tumblr media
thats one quarter of all dwellings in this city. The performance so far on the ground and water has been the usual efficient, industrious and courageous efforts by selfless men and women fire, police, defence forces and just ordinary citizens helping where they can as we always do but some of the decisions from the Disaster Center HQ so far do not inspire confidence that we are in safe competent hands. The timing and extent of opening the dam gates is sure to be the subject of future debate. A Touch Of Timely Humour Highlights The Magpies Point
Tumblr media
And An Urgent Clarification Needed From Premier Palaszczuk Surely there cant be a deliberate bit of political game-playing by the premier at a time like this. She has declared Townsville a disaster zone but apparently not a natural disaster. The difference is crucial to Townsville businesses, already suffering a severe economic down turn, who will be up for an extra crippling financial liability if we are just a disaster zone.
Tumblr media
The premier needs to step up now and ease the minds of some businesses that may be teetering on the edge. The mayor should immediately ask for a clarification, and if necessary, a switch to a natural disaster for what else could it be when a Sydney Harbour of water is dumped on the city is such a catastrophically short time. This option is the fairest to all. But The Astonisher Has Well Astonished Given the on-the-run nature of reporting our unfolding disaster, The Magpie gives a emphatic up-tick to Jenna Cairney and her crew of substantially inexperienced journos for wide and consistent coverage. Certainly theres been blips but, far fewer than one could have expected. And why might that be, you ask? Simple because this is real, rolling hard news, on-going, mixing constant reporting with solid information (well as solid as reporters are told). No time or need for padding, opinion or bias, of which there has been precious little. Apart from Ms. Cairneys presient hand-slap at the Disaster Center, things have been happening too swiftly. And generally, given the circumstances, all platforms have performed well. Little things like pics of kids playing in floodwaters can be tut-tutted over later. From his own professional experience, The Pie predicts a traumatic event like this can be the foundation of many a solid journalistic career, and some of the tyros, and even those who think themselves already seasoned, will gain insights into real reporting to be the better for it Ms Cairney, The Pie knows how much you, like our mayor, appreciate the The Magpies wise counsel, so if you can guide your troops on this new path of professionalism, you will go a long way to restoring some of this once proud papers tattered reputation. Alas, the downside is that there will shortly be many a job application winging south with a CV justifiably boasting I covered the Townsville flood disaster of 2019. Who Says Mayor Mullet Is The Cause Of Townsville Economic Woes? Well, highly successful developer Peter Tapiolas, that who, for one.
Tumblr media
In a bruisingly frank interview with Tony Raggatt, Mr Tapiolas showed hes as mad as hell and not going to take it any more especially not from politicians. He didnt miss many of em, either.QUOTE: Townsville recorded 573 approvals about 1.4 per cent of the share of major Queensland centres and second-last to Rockhampton, which had 369.The figures are alarming. We have never seen it as low as last year, Mr Tapiolas, a director of the Parkside Group, said. (Townsville Mayor Jenny Hill) should be screaming from the rooftops on Adani but she cant because shes scared of (Premier) Annastacia Palaszczuk, and the three local (Labor State MPs) wont support Adani. Mr Tapiolas said home building had ground to a halt because people lacked confidence about their current and future job prospects. When that happens people just bunker down and hang on, Mr Tapiolas said. UNQUOTE Crikey, Pete, want to guest edit The Magpie sometime no one will be able to tell the difference. But the story held other surprises, like Townsville state MP Scott Stewarts frank admission of being a self-interested Labor toady.
Tumblr media
And even our old favourite Mayor Mullet was in danger of fence sitting bum splinters.
Tumblr media
Reports? Madam, if you had the courage of your supposed convictions, you should be clambering up to the rooftops as Mr Tapiolas suggests, on this one too, since you no doubt read this in a story in which you yourself were quoted. Director of the National Threatened Species Recovery Hub Brendan Wintle has been engaged to lead the review, and is able to appoint up to six people on a panel to examine Adanis plan.Mr Wintle last year participated in a climate strike and has authored several articles critical of governments using biodiversity offsets to allow development. (TB Jan 22 2019) Even the Emerald Isle aint that green, sweetie. What is disturbing, though, petal, is when you come out with cowardly political twaddle like this. Other Stuff The Pie has thought about this SMH headline all night, and can only see visions of Soylent Green.
Tumblr media
What they gunna do, pop the babies back in until a spot becomes available? Or employ alcoholic surgeons who dont try to hard on oldies (oh, sorry, the hearts over THAT side oops.) And then this that mightily confused this Aussie:
Tumblr media
Ummm nice tan, Singo. Its Super Bowl Sunday, (Monday In Oz) And What A Missed Opportunity Americas annual play a bit, chat a bit, smack a few bums a bit extravaganza known as the Super Bowl, between someone or other and somebody else, is now famous for many other things beside football. There are the eye-watering numbers of global viewers 103 million last year resulting the equally eye-watering $5.2million that advertisers are happy to pony up for a 30 second commercial. And the half-time entertainment is now almost of more interest that the game, famous for fails and malfunctions, most notoriously the latter one of what is prissily referred to as a wardrobe malfunction (Justin Timberlake groped Janet Jacksons boobs which made them play wall-eyed peek-a-boo with the goggling audience, resulting in more computer slow motion replays and gummed up keyboards than any exploit on the footy field.) But the organisers have missed an ideal opportunity this year to create an all time viewing record, if only they had chosen the half time entertainment with a little vision. Bob Eckstein of the New Yorker illustrates a massive missed opportunity.

She is of course right if we accept that God invented ebola, cancer, earthquakes, tsunamis and Clive Palmer. Finally, here';s an ad from London that will get the thin-lipped humorless gals balling their fists and clenching their buttocks in rage.

Open invitation to talk about how Audrey was under-utilized by the Lorax movie
Oh my god I’ve been waiting for this opportunity for my entire life 
Well, ONE way to improve the movie would be simply removing that entire Thneedvile subplot and making the entire movie about the Once-ler. Like, the movie starts off with a young boy going to visit the Once-ler in this dark and decrepit world. The entire movie is the Once-ler’s story, told with better pacing than the actual movie did. Unlike the original, show what a good guy the Once-ler was, make us invested in his character, show his gradual heel-turn into a shitty guy. If you wanna stay true to the original story, end the movie with the Once-ler giving the seed to the kid. If you want a more optimistic ending, show the Once-ler and the kid planting the seed together or something. Maybe the movie could be sprinkled with some pop culture references, akin to Shrek or Moana, but overall have a very sombering kind of tone and add more character to the Dr Suess classic.
“But we don’t want to just stick to the original,” a corporate suit might say to me. “We need it to be more peppy and modern. We need an unneeded het romance. We need it to appeal to the youth.”
Ok, I’d say, we can make that work. So how can we improve the Lorax (2012) using the characters and aspects that said movie presents to us?? Well, I’m no master writer, so this probably isn’t the best movie, but this is just my idea.
Mostly, by utilizing Audrey.
Alright, so, what do we know about Audrey? Well, she knows about trees. Why? Well, let’s say that in this hypothetical alternate movie, the intro scene is a parent/a guardian/some other adult figure (maybe a younger Norma as a babysitter??) telling a young Audrey about trees. Maybe she comes across old pictures of trees, and finds herself interested in them, and yearns to learn more. 
You see her curiosity bloom in this scene, and that could transition into the opening number Thneedville. Instead of Ted scooting around the singing residents, it would be Audrey. Like, she’s picking up paint from the store, and everyone’s singing around her, and she clearly sticks out as a sore thumb (think the opening song from Beauty and the Beast, except no ones paying attention Audrey). After the song, you see her painting the trees on the back of her house (if she found an old picture of trees like I mentioned before, maybe she’s using it as a reference?? So it makes sense why she even knows what they look like), which leads to Ted crashing his toy plane in her backyard, like in the movie (except from her POV). She shows him her paintings, and gushes abt how she’d love to see a real tree (maybe she’s even the one who tells Ted about the Once-ler, but she’s like “I’m terrified of leaving down, have you seen the cameras everywhere? O’Hare’d go after me and my family for sure” and Ted is just stupid enough to attempt to do it himself). I don’t know, something along those lines. Maybe Ted flat out doesn’t care about trees at first, and finds Audrey’s fascination weird, and she has to convince him. Something like that
This would lead to Ted finding the Once-ler, and that would more or less be the same. However, whenever the movie isn’t focusing on the Once-ler, it’s focusing on Audrey’s story within Thneedville. Instead of the Ted/O’hare confrontation that we got in the movie, Audrey finds O’Hare in her backyard as his guards are painting over her trees. O’Hare could be like “Nice paintings Audrey! Where did you learn about these :)?” and Audrey is glaring him down (and showing some actual character mayhaps???)
And since I’m a sucker for parallels, I imagine parallels being very evident in this version of the movie??? Like at first, you see Ted being kinda dismissive of Audrey’s passion for nature, though eventually giving in (this would parallel the Once-ler, a man with an ulterior motive behind nature, and the Lorax, a creature who genuinely cares about nature). Then, later on, you see O’Hare and Audrey’s confrontation, which would parallel the Once-ler, a cruel business tycoon, shutting down the nature-loving Lorax. Not only would this give a bit more character to the main characters, but it could also show the similarities that Audrey has to the Lorax (which I think the actual movie was trying to go for??? Maybe????) and also show just how terrible the Once-ler has become??? He went from someone as innocent as Ted to someone like O’Hare??? I don’t know. I love parallels 
These stories would come back together when Ted gets the seed and shows it to Audrey. Though I hate that chase scene at the end of the movie, I think it’d be more or less the same in this edited movie. (Maybe there’s some kind of scene where Ted almost gives into O’Hare’s words? Like, he’s got the seed and he’s like “Is it really worth this much trouble, Audrey? Things aren’t SO bad, they COULD be worse” and Audrey’s like “my dude that kind of thinking is what got us here in the first place”. Idk it’s kind of a stretch that could potentially be a good idea maybe?) It’s Audrey who says “I speak for the trees” and gives the big speech at the end. They do the the Let It Grow sequence, and Audrey and Ted plant the seed in the ground together (there’s no cheek kiss. theres. theres just no cheek kiss. maybe she ruffles his hair though, like a big sister)
Then you get the ending, where old once-ler is watering his trees and the Lorax comes down and they have their reunion scene, just like in the actual movie. However, before the credits roll, you see Ted and Audrey coming up over the hill. Ted motions to Audrey like “she’s the Real person who cared a whole awful lot and i wanted her to meet you” and you see Ted and Audrey standing across from the Once-ler and the Lorax and its like... it’s almost like Ted and Audrey are the “new onceler and lorax”???? Like, the Onceler and the Lorax are familiar faces to old fans of dr suess. Adults and what have you. Ted and Audrey, though, are voices for the younger generation. The younger kids watching the movie
i dont know. parallels are fun. i dont know what im saying
Anyways YEAH thats my idea for how they couldve improved the Lorax movie and utilized Audrey more??? Sure it wouldnt have been perfect, hell it probably wouldnt have been GREAT, but these are just the ways that I think I personally wouldve enjoyed the movie more and I hope u all enjoy
