going through a friend break up rn and i’ve never despised someone so much in my life. i genuinely need her out of my life
#and like i couldn’t even tell you what has led to this#really just a bunch of little tiny things i never got to address with her because she always IMMEDIATELY plays the victim and won’t listen#so everything has just festered and grown more and more rotten#and now i need her to fuck off to the other side of the world so i don’t have to see her#also do you guys agree friendship break ups result in you having to be super introspective#like i am so worried now i’m this very judgemental#and unaccepting person#and therefore just a bad friend#and being a bad friend is not something i want to be

I miss people using non-medicalized terms for other people's passions
like. well and good to talk about "hyperfixations," "special interests [in the context of an autistic person's favorite subject]," or "infodumping" if you have ADD/ADHD or autism, or are talking about someone who is, but...that's not everyone who feels strongly about something, obsesses, or loves talking about their interests. those words mean specific things, associated with specific forms of neurodivergence
don't assume everyone is comfortable with that language
"rambling" is a word; so is "ranting." "obsession" is a word. "passion" is a word. learn them and use them
#mini-rant#it makes me really uncomfortable when people use that language to talk about my fandom activities#because those are fine and useful words! they just. don't apply to me.#also the weird assumption that everyone who like...has a hobby is autistic? or feels passionately about any activity?#at least in this case it's coming from a more positive perspective and usually from autistic people themselves but#I see people claiming that X character with a hobby they love is 100% Confirmed Autistic and if you disagree you're a bigot#you are free to headcanon that! but.#neurotypical people also have hobbies sometimes!#just saw someone saying that the character Daria was 'undiagnosed autistic' and therefore criticizing her behavior was Bad#my friend. she is a fake person.

Genuinely so curious who Mike thinks is gonna be buying The Cage or the new DCTL GN bc with the way he tweets as far as he's concerned, it's not gonna be:
The queer people he has actively admitted he will never show any representation of in the games.
2. The POC he has actively fought against representing in his franchise. [Who he also mocked for thinking they would be represented in his franchise]
3. The Bendy fandom which has always been concerned with topics of diversity esp in the sense of queer people since its creation. Who he has responded to really poorly esp in regards to the GN.
4. The fans who critique him. [He blocked me for doing so lol]
5. His fans in general who he tweets about like this currently. [He's being vague about why people were mad at him or sent him 'nasty messages' because if you actually looked into why you'd see he was in the wrong. Either way, a very hateful way to speak abt ur own fanbase.]
Reminder while Mike is trash talking his fans he has always treated them rather poorly. The fans who won the fanart contest for Chapter 5 never got their posters actually in game due to it being rushed. Not only was chapter 5 a big slap to the face story wise, but it was literally so rushed he couldn't be bothered to add in the art his fans gave him for his game FOR FREE. [Meatly blames this on a crazy timeline, reminder him and Mike are the literal ceos of this company. The proposal of future updates here is also pretty cruel considering Mike nowadays happily admits he corrupted Chapter 5's source code and therefore literally can't update it At All currently. Because he is a moron]
At least they got to be in Boris and the dark survival, and by that I mean that was the Only game they got to be in so far, isn't that just treating your fans like you love them? Shoving their hard work into a spin off game almost nobody has played or addresses much. [Hell, who knows if with the Lone Wolf rebrand they'll even stay there. In which case they'll be in None of the games, only in the credits of BATIM]
6. The Bendy fans who just generally disagree with him on stuff. Like the new ink demon design where there is literally a public poll showing people generally prefer the old one.
7. The Bendy fans who can see he is actively lying to them. To their fucking faces.
He says this has always been the case, but screenshots and links to tweets regarding the books being canon prove it was not. Does he really think bendy fans are stupid or something? [Unless he's admitting here he lied to Kress when he told her the books were canon which sounds worse!]
8. Anyone who doesn't like the idea of giving money to a guy who laid off tons of employees then afterwards thought it was a great idea to express his anti-union views! Also brag about how good of an employer he was, according to his employees, he was not!
So in summary; Mike is an awful person who has not learned anything from the awful things he did. I will not be purchasing The Cage because, combined with this and his absolute refusal to take any kind of critique or see any differing interpretation of his franchise, I have no reason to think my problems with the franchise will ever be addressed or fixed. I probably will pirate The Cage along with any future Bendy Products [Including the movie] and will do my best to avoid giving it any kind of monetary support. Unless this changes any time soon, I can't see myself making anymore positive Bendy posts soon.
Mike has just managed to make it so hard to speak positively or optimistically of this franchise when he's so willing to broadcast how little he cares about it or its fans. I'm at the point where I refuse to pull any of my punches with my problems with it. What's the point of trying to play nice with my critique when either way the people creating it don't care?
So with this post, I want to invite anyone who feels similarly about the franchise to tell me, make a post or send an ask talking about how all of this makes you feel. It may not change how things are, but genuinely seeing other people share my feelings of anger makes me feel better. It feels nice to see when other people share our same concerns and worries. I'd also love to know if anyone else thinks they'll be avoiding purchasing Bendy products over this.
I'm not forcing anyone to participate in it nor trying to say anyone who doesn't supports mike but genuinely maybe if we can collectively decide to boycott things like the movie, graphic novel and The Cage... It might at least make the bendy devs acknowledge how much they have destroyed their own fandom's faith and trust in them.
The way Mike tweets about his actions like he had no control over why people were mad at him at least proves to me he takes NONE of it back nor regrets it. If you didn't know about his actions and only went off his tweets, you would be led to believe Mike has been needlessly picked apart by fans over things he couldn't control [or in his own words, had his words twisted and taken out of context]. That is not how you speak about your actions if you have actually learned better from them.
anyway, that has been my bendy dev callout post. This is an open invitation to anyone feeling similarly upset about the way the franchise is going to talk about it. It's genuinely nice to see how people feel about this and the more we talk about the more it's likely the bendy devs are forced to address our concerns. I don't think they will but hey, that's why I'm not gonna support them with my money anymore nor am I gonna be nice to them in any content I make critiquing Bendy. I mean I'm also basically making this post just in case anyone asks me Why I feel this way towards to bendy devs/as a way to respond to anyone who thinks I am too harsh in my critique in the future.
As always, it seems the best part of Bendy isn't actually anything about canon but about what the fan's are creating with the ideas Bendy failed to do anything interesting with.
Also the books, the books slap.
#batim#batdr#bendy and the ink machine#bendy and the dark revival#ramblez#bendy and the silent city#bendy the cage#for the record another reason Im making this post is bc some of the only good resources to learn abt why the bendy devs suck are some old#very longer videos and this is a very long post but I thought it was important to document the recent shit theyve been doing alongside some#of the worst past things theyve done bc Mike has been trying to misinform people on what happened but those videos are still great resource#if you want more info n such#long post#mike D#for anyone who doesnt wanna hear abt him since he doesnt go by mood anymore#sorry if this is rambley or emotional Im just so sick of these guys fr dskjhgskdfjghskdjhgkjhsd#I miss when I didnt spend my days stressed about the awful shit mike is gonna say next and how I would have to disprove it in a post later#or explain why its bad to have a cast of nothing but cishet white guys n constantly fight back against any push for diversity in said cast#genuinely its just tiring esp when u see other bendy fans give ignorant or very silly defenses/takes on those things#n then u lose a lot of respect for them bc they are speaking on stuff they dont know much abt so confidently and therefore misinforming#people or even encouraging very bad views on stuff like diversity n its importance#Im not saying people like that are bad people but it is stressful n upsetting when u see someone u thought knew better do that sort of thin#it makes it hard to trust them again on other issues bc u now dont trust they know what they r talking abt!!#like please think twice before telling young artists making norman white was a tough and complicated decision it was fucking not the bendy#devs just think all their humans are white by default and dont wanna change that its been proven time n time again thats all it is#and defending them just bc u like a franchise they made is very very bad!! They are not ur friends!! they suck and we seriously need to#stop pretending they dont!! toxic positivity is only gonna make the fandom an absolute nightmare its not gonna make ANYTHING better#it just means people will be forced to PRETEND they never have negative thoughts abt the franchise n therefore make them burned out#just look at other similar fandoms please lets not make those same mistakes!!#sorry can u tell Ive been having just. A time recently#anyways back to making my queer ass bendy fan game full of so much diversity mike will prolly shit when he sees it DKFJGHKSDJHGKJHSD

An alternative review of GMMTV Live 2024 part 2
A list of the shared items of clothing that appeared in the trailers, ranked according to the amount I squealed when I spotted it.
6. getricheasy sports shirt
The first of four from Sweet Tooth, Good Dentist, this had its first appearance in Only Friends and was used in the promotional material for The Outing but I didn't spot it in the show, so I'm happy to see it again. Who knows if it will be used in the actual show...that goes for any of these items incidentally.
5. Blue with yellow detail knitted vest
I've had a screenshot of this vest worn by Thor since I saw it as Wednesday Club aired. I swear I've seen it somewhere else before but can't remember. But hence why it immediately jumped out to me in Perfect 10 Liners.
4. Green sports jacket
On to the second of the four from Sweet Tooth, Good Dentist, and oh to be Poon and be able to wear the jacket that our King and Queen have worn -> first by Namtan in UMG and then Mix in his glorious cameo at the end of Only Friends. I predict we'll see this again a few more times.
3. Blue with brown edging shirt
I was happy to see this one, another in Sweet Tooth, Good Dentist, because I had kept it in my mind since seeing it in Only Friends - as another potential that might get worn again. It's subtle yet quite distinct...and very much in a similar vibe as many other shirts worn by Force (and shared with Sea, Ngern, and New amongst others).
2. Red, blue, and green striped t-shirt
I'm impressed with my brain for spotting this one, the last from Sweet Tooth, Good Dentist, because at first it just felt familiar, and I immediately thought of UMG but I thought it might just be because it's similar to a few stripy colour shirts that Nanon wore. But I had a look through my screenshots of the series and eventually found it all the way at the end...
1. Ink's mustard knitted vest!
This one I could not believe. Never in my wildest dreams did I think we would see this iconic vest from Bad Buddy again. But here we are, on Mix no less in Ossan's Love. It's not something you'd expect to see on Mix...but then again I thought the costuming of the trailer looked a lot more 'quirky' than usual and very much fitting the kooky/slapstick vibe of the series. But honestly, this made my day.
#INK'S VEST!!#to be honest I was a little disappointed there weren't more clothes from the communal wardrobe#but I'm still happy to see all these being used#we'll see which ones make it to the actual filming#gmmtv 2024#sweet tooth good dentist#perfect 10 liners#ossans love thailand#only friends the series#ofts#the outing#wednesday club#UMG#unidentified mysterious girlfriend#bad buddy#bad buddy series#I suppose I should look into who does the clothes/styling for these shows#because it might be the same person...which would therefore make sense that the clothes get used again#or it could be that there is just one central 'store' where all the designers dip into to get some items#who knows...#the thai communal wardrobe

i think growing up is just life repeatedly sucker punching you and saying bitch you thought things were gonna better lmao no you're so naive and stupid for having hope in 20 years the world will be flaming bag of garbage and no matter how hard you work you'll get eliminated at some point
#and then you just have to get up and keep living anyway because what else is there to do?#but man my heart keeps feeling heavier with every blow#2024 has literally been the worst year ever god personally too#like everytime i think it can't possibly get worse than this it does#i remember literally 9th jan i had such a horrible breakdown in an auto because the first friend i ever made#after school was leaving my work and therefore my life#9 days into the year. seriously. and i was so happy on 8th because it was my birthday#i don't know im trying hard to think okay this doesn't even affect me it's fine im privileged enough that even my own countrys politics#barely affects me#but just. india is already so behind in everything. if developed nations are doing shit like this then well#it will never get better right like who do we even strive to be#i want to get more into indian politics but my god. it's so horrifying and depressing all the time#like i remember resolving to follow politics closely few years ago and the first news#i read was about some minister talking about how girls skirts lengths IN SCHOOL is the reason boys do sa and boys will be boys etc etc#i know i could just follow business news stuff like that god knows it'll help in my field but it just. doesn't resonate with me doesn't#make me feel anything at all. like i so desperately want to care about ooh stock markets and how to grow your money etc etc#but when i think about being rich enough to invest idle money all i can think is sitting in my own home peacefully#drinking a glass of cold coffee and just being able to breathe freely because me and my sister used to joke in childhood#when dad went thru a coffee v bad for health phase and he wouldn't let us drink it so we would drink it very sneakily#at night when he was asleep or went out for an hour and make absolutely no noise while mixing the sugar. we said that we know#we'll* know we have achieved true freedom and happiness in life when we can peacefully drink cold coffee in the hall and not secretly#in the dead of night in our room#i don't even know what im talking about and my period is late again and nothing is working and my lazer focus#that i had built in the past few weeks is gone because suddenly im like what is the point????#i just don't understand how the fuck humans can fight over stupid fucking things like who is kissing who and who is doing what with their#body instead of focusing on collective issues like our planet is dying so fucking fast and every summer is getting impossibler to survive#i hate that the united states control the UN fuck this world fr man i hate being born in such horrible helpless times#like call me a kid or dumb or whatever but i cannot understand how MILLIONS of people do not#have sympathy for ppl around them and who don't care about the planet at all like how????? how did you grow up????#not trying to boast but this is so natural to me!!! didn't you make save water save earth posters in school!!! didn't anyone

wip wednesday: almost done :)
#my opinions of what constitutes ‘realism’ in my top gun fanfic is determined by my weekly mood.#this week because of world events i am feeling depressed and cynical.#therefore though i have previously said ice did not consider the leverage he had over mav during their relationship#bc i am feeling cynical this is no longer the case.#1. who’s on top? who stands to gain? who wears the pants? who cuts the deals?#see ‘if he tells anyone it’ll make him look just as bad’ from the slider one shot#2. southeastern california is unimaginably bleak but they do get good sunrises out there in the boonies#3. mav turns 50. this inspires some philosophizing by the other geezers at his bday party.#4. tom kazansky gains a friend.#pete maverick mitchell#tom iceman kazansky#icemav#top gun#top gun maverick#top gun fanfiction#ron slider kerner#bernie hondo coleman#carole bradshaw#i have one more wip Wednesday i think. too busy to post these on Saturday. But maybe next Saturday or after that???#mostly this week i was just cutting and rearranging. cut like 7k.#i seem to be catching some flack for my continued repetition that Maverick’s not a great guy.#need i remind you that him being a heartbreaker is literally canon. like he canonically broke the heart of his main endgame love interest.#to the extent that her TEENAGED DAUGHTER very seriously instructs him not to break her heart again#after she catches him unseriously fucking around with her mom again#like he has inflicted generational trauma lol#not a great guy!

Growling biting hissing screaming Tumblr dot com doesn't have a real fandom for Requiem For A Dream crying screaming throwing up
Tw: caps and drug mentioned
WHENEVER I OPEN THE TAG FOR THIS MOVIE IT'S ALL ABOUT MARIAM AND HARRY'S LOVE FOR EACH OTHER AND GIF/SCREENSHOTS ABOUT THEIR LOVE AND ITS SOOO FRUSTRATING
Like it's nice that people can relate to their love but THIS MOVIE IS ABOUT HOW DRUGS RUINED THEIR LIVES. WHY DO I HAVE TO OPEN YOUTUBE AND GOOGLE TO SEE DISCUSSIONS ABOUT IT???!! WHY CANT WE TALK ABOUT THE WAY SHOTS ARE DONE AND HOW ACTORS KILLED IT AND HOW SAD THEIR LIVES HAVE BECAME AND HOW NEITHER SARAH NOR HARRY KNOWS HOW TERRIBLE EACH OTHER BECAME BECAUSE OF DRUGS???
Sarah, if she even has consciousness at this point, is probably thinking at least her dear, handsome son is studying at a great university and doing better than her; while Harry could only wish that his dear mother is doing much better than how him and his friends are doing.
AND WHAT ABOUT SARAH'S NEIGHBOURS?? THEY SUGGESTED THE FAKE/BAD DOCTOR TO HER, SO SHE CAN LOOSE WEIGHT FASTER! THEY WERE CLEARLY HORRIFIED TO SEE HER GET OUT OF HER HOUSE TOWARDS THE END OF THE MOVIE BECAUSE SARAH WAS HORRIBLE?? WHAT ABOUT THE GUILT OF KILLING YOUR CLOSE FRİEND UNINTENTIONALLY??
AND MARIAM LITERALLY GAVE HER BODY TO PAY THE BILLS AND TYSON GOT LOCKED UP IN PRISON FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE AND HARRY LOST HIS ARM AND SARAH FUCKING DIED (?) AND AAAA
Why the fans (?) here are not talking about the characters and events of this movie instead of posting the same sex/love scene between Marian and Harry 74747th time???? Their love is just the part of this movie, but it's not what it is about!!!
#badger posts shit#requiem for a dream#2000s movies#btw i'm sure if i'm remembering Sarah's friends seeing her scene towards the end or making it up#the one before she went on the bus/metro to join to show#ALSO DONT EVEN TELL ME THAT THIS MOVIE IS OLD THEREFORE IT'S NOT REALLY CARED FOR#M A A A AAANY CLASSIC HORROR MOVIES THAT ARE FAMOUS STILL TO THIS DAY ARE FROM THE SAME AREA AS REQUIEM FOR A DREAM!!!!#IF YOU CAN LOVE SAW AND FINAL DESTINATION AND FRIDAY THE 13TH AND SCREAM AND HALLOWEEN; THAN YOU CAN LOVE RFAD TOO#IT DESERVES TO BE FAMOUS AND GET DISCUSSES ABOUT TOO FFS!! NOT TO BE TURNED INTO ANOTHER ONE OF TUMBLR'S LOVE STORY POSTS#THIS MOVIE IS NOT ANOUT MARIAM AND HARRY'S LOVE ITS ABOUT ADDICTION AND DRŰGS AND HOW IT RUINS LIVES#btw its fine if Mariam and Harry's love gives you comfort idc.#but its so fucking frustrating for me to open the tags for this movie only to see Mariam and Harry kissing and fűcking each other 558th time#instead of reading discussions about the movie#i was watching the movie with my mom and her friend and THAT ARM scene made us all gag because it was just so gross but in a good way#because you as an audience can see how fucked up his arm was - even Tyson could see it and reacted to it -#but Harry decided to Do It anyways! and it ended up turning into a Bad Thing for him (trying to be as vauge as possible lol)#WHY WE HAGE NO DISCUSSION ABOUT THE INFECTED (?) ARM SCENE??!! AND SARAH'S HALLUCINATIONS?#AND REST OF THE MOVIE AND ACTORS LIKE A FANDOM INSTEAD OF POSTING THE THING OVER AND OVER???

i don't knowww i don't like p.roshippers i don't want them near me but i do think the way some people on here talk about them is like. insane. like making them into an Evil Force that we as the Good Guys must Vanquish in order for us to Live In Peace is kind of weird. you get how that's weird, right?
#like they're not collaborating to send secret spies into our 'community'. they're not Others.#i just don't know why when someone is outed as being a bad person it's always 'they're a secret p.roshipper!'#and not. like. they're a terrible person !#i mean i do know why it's so people can shed themselves of the responsibility of acknowledging they were A Person.#and therefore never realizing they or their friends could be just as terrible. because they're not 'p.roshippers' so how could they?#.txt#you guys would be SO good at being civilian snitches during the cold war era.#okay i'm done i got it out of my system.

Ngl youtube videos suddenly got me slowly turning into a Justin Russo hater.
#like mainly later seasons him#early seasons him is fine#but like i guess plot wise you could argue he becomes more iffy because you know the competition will be soon#and justin does want to become the family wizard#as for some reason this show still never fully tackled the fucked up shit of the idea that wizard siblings have to grow up studying magic#only for one or two or whatever number siblings to lose it to one sibling in a competition#like stevie was the closest we got to that#but like it still dont make it less bad with how justin was#like the worst example i can name is him literally refusing to save alex whose his sister btw and shes always dropped shit to save him#because he wants to project onto her that she purposely fucked up his chances to get back into the competition via#pushing the students to take the test only for them to be failed because bad guy being bad guy in reality#and basically blames her for the failure and such as a result and acts like its all an act when she is mad on the students behalf and shit#and his students have to drag him kicking and screaming just to save her from the bad guy's shit#and there's also the competition itself where harper and zeke get grabbed by a creature during it#but alex has to convince her brothers to save the two and thats just cold already on justins end with zeke#but cause they took too long they all lose the competition and magic#and both brothers especially justin proceed to treat alex like shit even during work hours meaning#fucking over family business just to get at alex#and when the dad ultimately almost sells the place justin STILL blames alex#like she was the only one working fully max was being max and justin was being a little bitch to her#aka the infamous refusing to make her orders only max's and when he does he throws the sandwich at her#and cause she was holding drinks at the time and didnt see it coming the drinks went on a customer#and also throwing table trash into her already full bin shes carrying around while cleaning tables#and therefore messing it up for her like#and alex's logo...well from sounds of shit thats just justin again being a hateful bitch to his sister with zero consquiences#even one commenter pointing how he sadistically smiled while telling her all her friends hate her#like dear god if the show was doing this to make everyone root for alex its working i hate later season justin#gonna be interesting if hes matured or not as an adult

I’m thinking about Modern!AUs in fanfiction and why sometimes they’re some of my favorite fics and also sometimes the Worst™️. (<-that is a joke. There is no such thing as bad fanfiction, just fanfiction I don’t personally like.)
Because I LOVE Modern!AUs that ask interesting questions about how the setting of a story impacts the characters—how much of the setting can you remove while still being able to recognize the characters in question? All of it? None of it? What new problems would living in a world with planes and phones create for these characters? How are the social and political tensions of the original canon reflected in our own world?
The “problem” (again, not an actual problem, just a personal preference) is that most Modern!AUs COMPLETELY refuse to engage with any of that. They instead become a stale rehashing of the original canon except with lower stakes. Nothing about the modern setting adds interest, and everything interesting from the original setting falls away.
I think that a lot of people write Modern!AU fics to deescalate the conflict of the original canon and give the characters more relatable problems, which isn’t universally terrible, but it can so easily become boring. I don’t WANT to know what it would be like if one of these characters was a florist and the other was a tattoo artist; I want to know what would happen if you gave one of them a gun.
#yes this is about my Vanyel nuclear weapons AU. IMO Vanyel as a character should be doomed to be a living weapon no matter the setting#This is also about the locked tomb#my good friend harrowhark nonagesimus didn’t give herself a lobotomy to end up working at hot topic#and gideon didn’t throw herself on a fencepost with the full understanding that her soul would be consumed in the fires of lyctorhood#just to work at a gym. I think they should’ve been raised in a pseudo-catholic death cult and harrow should be an ecoterrorist#This is also why I think tgcf modern!AUs leave me a little flat. Like Xie Lian is SO WEIRD because he willingly submitted to#getting stabbed a hundred times. He also got buried alive. There is simply no modern!AU explanation for how weird he is!!!#(<-says the person who has a tgcf modern!au posted on his ao3)#On the flip side this is also why I think MDZS modern AUs kind of work??#because SO MANY of the problems MDZS characters have are just.#‘my dad likes my adoptive brother more than me’#‘my family doesn’t want me associating with this person who has a bad reputation’#so at least like the front half of MDZS is modern!AU-able#people lose me when they try to make a modern analogue for the genocide of the Wen. like oooookay#I don’t think getting their company shut down should be presented as equivalent to a genocide but w/ever#I do not like it therefore I shall not read it

you read homestuck?? u seem like the type to have Opinions on dirk and/or dave /lh
Dirk was done fucking dirty by the narrative post-epilogue and I'm never gonna stop being angry about it
#You have a guy who is destined to be an awful abusive person. And he thinks hes the worst he already hates himself so much#So he tries to hard to compensate for it that it looks back into being a jackass#But hes not actually evil. No one is. The fact that he wants to be good means he already beat his past/alternate self#Just trying to be your best means you're already not a bad person. And he tries.#He tries SO HARD that he let's himself disappear if he fails his friends and his soul lives in his boyfriends brain so hard hat it manifest#Hes a control freak hes so competent that he almost forgets to be human#But he learns. Especially by meeting the brother he abused in a sort of past life#And by dating his friend first badly and then getting better#AND THEN THE NARRATIVE SAID. OH NAH THAT JOURNEY OF LEARNING THAT YOURE NOT DESTINED TO BE EVIL#THAT NO ONE IS IRREVOCABLY EVIL AND THAT CHOOSING TO BE GOOD IS ALWAYS AN OPTION#YEAH NO WE THREW THAT AWAY ACTUALLY. HES EVIL AGAIN#WHAT THE FUCK KIND OF CHOICE IS THAT.#I HATE IT VICIOUSLY and therefore the meat and candy shit never happened. Do you hear me.#It ended with the snapchat.#Not an art#Imagine if Fuyuhiko had his entire arc and then suddenly decided nah I dont give a shit about you guys and I will actually kill you-#-bc I'm a bad person and I always was. Nobody ca change

On the one hand, I want to make my DND/TTRPG characters diverse in sexualities, because it’s fun and interesting and why not
On the other hand I am very very aroace and both romance-repulsed and socially anxious enough to want to throw up at the thought of trying to roleplay romance in front of anyone…
#yes i know i don’t have to rp it#the problem is i also can’t give them like an ex or something bc i don’t even want to rp THAT#just in case the npc shows back up#this post brought to you by my newest character#she’s a strix (owl person) who’s studying alchemy and therefore gets to fly around the battlefield and drop potion flasks like they’re bombs#(aka she’s the scholar class from advanced fifth edition)#her background is outlander so i decided to make her connection a former best friend turned rival#except then i thought hey maybe she’s queer and actually her former best friend is her ex and also a girl#except then i realized if the rival shows back up…then i might have to rp romance and i refuse to do that#it’s bad enough my current character is based on a character whose romance is sort of inextricable from his backstory#i had to kill off the ex fiancee for him so i didn’t have to deal with her and i don’t like fridging characters#marijn talks

Do you have thoughts about Baby Henry and his Great Aunt Matilda?
Oh BOY do I.
I could literally go on and on forever but I should redirect you to this entire fic which is basically a coherent, carefully constructed, novel of those thoughts:
(Those with an astute eye will notice that I call Matilda Henry’s aunt, as in his fathers sister, as opposed to his great aunt. Maybe this is due to the copious amounts of inheritance fuckery brought up in the first chapter. Maybe I forgot because rereading nothing but shadows makes me sad. Maybe I can make it work and I’m going with it.)
#*smacking four year old Henry on the head* this bad boy can hold so many childhood symptoms of autism#look at him. he had no friends. didn't respond when people called his name. zero imitating of the adults around him.#would scream bloody murder if you tried to take something he liked away from him. absolutely did not babble.#probably didn't talk until he was like five. is picking up on no one elses emotions. never seems to waver from “:)” regardless ofenvironmen#anyways. I’m crawling all over the wall connecting random sentences from the books together with red string#Dissecting this shit to the core#Used my Jstor account to go study the York dialect in the 1850s#Which is different than just the accent btw#because I connected the dots#I can make that mistake work actually#Add it to “mistakes I make that actually make sense”#Gloria Branwell does not like her in-laws. Or her husband. Or anyone honestly#plus the inheritance fuckery happening brought up in the first chapter#So a lot of relationships are being being blurred#its worth noting that for all intents and purposes Henry did think she was his great aunt#Which is mostly because a) his mother hated her and b) she died when he was like ten#and therefore died way younger than one would assume she would have.#anyways I love that fic#of all my fics (despite the glaring mistake that I genuinely cannot believe I made what the fuck caterpillar) that one is like#the most detailed#most carefully built up#most “could be inserted into canon”
