i went through the whole merry search on your account and i can't believe people used to hate her? how do you not love a messy bitch who starts drama.............
sooo true, anon. unfortunately we live in a world where people hate women 😔 but i will say you're right, it's gotten a lot better recently. i think it has to do with a combination of me really curating my audience over the past year, and in general things are very different now compared to when i started in 2020. more genderlocked companions, more trans characters, and it's pretty common now for games to have poly romance options, as well as love interests that will pursue other characters if the player doesn't show interest in them. (the last 2 being things people really hated Merry for in the beginning)
people definitely still don't like it, but i think they are more of a loud minority now than the loud majority like they were previously. which has been a really nice change to see :-)
#or maybe im just in my own little world after annoying everyone away LOL#but i've definitely noticed a change recently regarding Merry#i used to get a Lot of messages about how much ppl hated her or wanted to beat her up#very normal things#but now i definitely feel that she's become more of a favorite#again i think that's also largely bc i have a predominantly trans audience now compared to before#and my opinions and uhhhh. Personality have definitely pushed certain crowds away#and i've also talked a lot abt how weird ppl have been towards Merry which i also think has endeared her to some people mdnfkjs#unfortunately at the start tho she was a woman (gasp) a trans woman (double gasp) and she flirted with Lea and was antagonistic#which people REALLY did not like. mdnfkjsfh#i still get the occasional out of pocket message and i suspect after some scenes in the next update i will get a few more#but i DO still think it's definitely shifted and more people like Merry these days than ever before#so. go Merry!!! 🎊#feminism<3#ask#anonymous

I love your tags! Can you explain why you chose some of them?

i answered a similar question here , friend !
HOWEVER , IF YOU’RE FAMILIAR WITH MY BLOGS you’ve probably realized i have too much fun with song memes and there’s actually a gc disc. channel dedicated to me spamming the shit out of songs and cm caps , but i digress . . .
basically , i try to match lyrics ( or even the emotion a song shoves down my throat ) to certain moments ( usually important ones , like the backbones of the characters’ relationships ) and then either use the full lyrics or paraphrase them into tags .
EDIT : i added links to actual things bc # context .
𝙳𝙾𝙽'𝚃 𝚂𝚃𝙾𝙿 ━━ @ gideonlike a shotgun in a fist fight , 𝙻𝙸𝙺𝙴 𝙰 𝙼𝚄𝚁𝙳𝙴𝚁 𝙸𝙽 𝚃𝙷𝙴 𝙳𝙰𝚈𝙻𝙸𝙶𝙷𝚃 , i’m the poison in the lead pipes , open me up and watch the dogs fight . 𝙼𝚈 𝙰𝙽𝙶𝙴𝙻'𝚂 𝙸𝙽 𝙰 𝙷𝙴𝙰𝙳𝙻𝙾𝙲𝙺 and i’m dropping bombs from the rooftops ; i ain’t waiting on the world to wake up / my new year’s resolution , yeah , to choke out my illusions , to cut through the confusion .
‘my angel’s in a headlock’ just stuck with me from the very first time i heard this song . idr how long after this , but eventually i remembered it while working on one of my ‘why i love gideon’ posts and it weirdly fits him in my opinion . think of all the lives the team saves over the years : because gideon and rossi single - handedly made the BAU possible . gideon’s often referred to as “the best�� profiler , but as always , his insight comes with a price : mainly , his sanity . if you watch Nelson’s Sparrow in season 10 they show flashbacks to a young gideon and young rossi who are working on a case before the BAU actually exists . towards the end you can see that this case , the fact that they never caught the unsub , already affects him in a negative way , more than the expected disappointment or anger . ‘in a headlock’ = the fact that the unsub from that episode , from one of gideon and rossi’s first cases , is actually the man who eventually kills gideon in his own cabin .
𝙱𝙰𝙳 𝙷𝙰𝙱𝙸𝚃𝚂 ━━ @trialederrors i feel static in my veins , every second of some motion , every time you walk away like if i close my eyes we’ll change from two strangers in a building to some ghosts that only fade away ━ smoke can clear a crowded room ; see , i don’t want you ; see , i don’t need you to make it out alive . and i know i got bad habits i should break ( and when i wanted , 𝙶𝚄𝙽 𝚂𝙼𝙾𝙺𝙴 𝙲𝙰𝙽 𝙲𝙻𝙴𝙰𝚁 𝙰𝚆𝙰𝚈 ) and i know i’ve got some secrets i can’t shake .
lmao this is an easy one : uhhhh mainly i had it on constant repeat while keyboard smashing at ro about hotch and emily . certain bits make me think of emily struggling with her whole arc in s6 and all the shit she’s done with CIA , the BAU , et cetera .
𝙳𝙾 𝙼𝙴 𝙰 𝙵𝙰𝚅𝙾𝚁 @ foyet ( post , post )i am an anti everything man , a scab on the lips of the lord . my caustic dismissal is all i need to get you to fall on your sword . / i woke up today with a gun ; ignoring your history is killing your past / the bell has rung on the titans , everybody give us some room . your so - called set of fake morals , “i can’t tell the difference” is that an excuse ?
‘the titans’ = the team / profilers , how foyet constantly mocked what they reported about his motivations and his behavior . when he’s stabbing hotch and hotch warns “my team [will find me and kill you]” foyet gets pissed and snaps something along the lines of “your team only found me because i let them” ; ‘i can’t tell the difference’ = when hotch beats foyet to death , his ‘excuse’ is protecting his son , “““excuse”““ because when he’s later asked if he’d kill doyle in season 6 to save emily ( and his team ) he says no , that even then he can’t / won’t “break his oath” & in my opinion it’s almost like an emphasis on the fact that hotch and foyet both knew each other better than anyone else . killing foyet was personal . if they were to investigate foyet’s death they’d profile the brutality as “overkill” considering he continued to beat him after the actual killing blow . he didn’t stop until he was physically pulled away . “overkill” is a sign of rage , yeah , but more like a type of rage that pushes you beyond your usual “boiling point” into something you can barely control .
𝙰𝙱𝚂𝙾𝙻𝚄𝚃𝙴 𝚉𝙴𝚁𝙾 ━━ @ the team𝙼𝚈 𝙼𝙾𝚄𝚃𝙷 𝙸𝚂 𝙰 𝙶𝚄𝙽 i can shoot , i can show you the truth and i don’t need a reason to lie to you . no pun intended , no punishment , if i offended you , you needed it . ideas are the bombs in your mind , a fissure in time , if you don’t have a weapon you can’t have mine .
‘i’m not the devil but i won’t be your hero’ is admittedly edgy but whatever , i like it . the team , like emily mentioned above , struggles with their own definition of ‘morality’ thanks to all the shit they see on the job . and i think that is meaningful itself , how they repeatedly crawl inside the minds of some pretty fucked up individuals to try to make sense of the chaos , but then turn around and try to have relatively normal lives .
𝙼𝚈 𝙽𝙴𝙼𝙴𝚂𝙸𝚂 @ his father ( post , post , post , post )
𝚃𝙷𝙸𝚁𝙳 𝙴𝚈𝙴 ━━ @ haley there’s a hole where your heart lies and i can see it with my third eye , and though my touch , it magnifies , you pull away and don’t know why . ( that 𝙾𝚁𝙸𝙶𝙸𝙽𝙰𝙻 𝙻𝙸𝙵𝙴𝙻𝙸𝙽𝙴 . . . ) hey , look up : you don’t have to be a ghost hidden amongst the living , you are flesh and blood and you deserve to be loved .
#i ..... spent Too Much Time on this#granted halfway i tried to take a nap#music.#oeigowihe this is a clusterfuck i Apologize#anon#asks tag.#cas shut up
