mom avoids dead anime mom curse because he transitions. he’s always had a complicated relationship with pregnancy because of how woefully little people are told about potential complications and aftercare, and also because of how gendered it is, so after the birth of his second child he’s finally had it and decides to transition
he joins a local community group for mothers and at first it’s played for laughs how often they fall to the dead mom curse, but soon we find out more about how society has failed mothers and people who give birth, from information being withheld, procedures being carried out without consent, lack of accommodations and maternal and paternal leave, racism…
it also turns out that becoming a man doesn’t help with this, not really, because being a pregnant trans man brings its own problems. follow along as he learns more about being a parent and a mother, and maybe even… finding love???
coming to you never because I can’t write!
#if the japanese is bad. MY BAD LMAO#this was also a joke for me at first but then i was like well hang on.....#my initial romance thought was his husband leaves him after the transition and eventually a new single father ends up joining the group#cos he like. idk misread the flyer as being a new parents group but the group accepts him with open arms#and hes drawn to the only other guy there and well u know wink wonk.#then i thought well come on thats not. very nice rip what if his husband sticks with him.#but thats why u have more than one trans guy LMAO so it doesnt become bad tokenism!!!!#the older kid also has a complicated relationship with his mom transitioning tbh#art#wow original art from me... ummm.#he also wears glasses but not all the time#GRAPHIC DESIGN IS (NOT) MY PASSION!!!!!#I WANT YOU TO KNOW IF THIS WOULD EVER BE WRITTEN IT WOULD BE GROUNDBREAKING INCREDIBLE.#but it wont because one that would imply that i finish writing anything ever.#two it would require so so much reading. which you should be doing you should be researching.#but the point is there would be a lot because i would think 'oh it had to be perfect' and then would never do it. on top of already#never finishing anything..................#ocs

pairing: akatsuki hyoga x gn!reader (no prns)
request: is this how you request something? ive been using tumblr for just a couple of days and im not used to anything ...i hope this is okay!
could i request a hyoga x gn reader? where reader is kind of blunt and direct with the things they say and end up confessing to hyoga while training with him out of an accident; like they say "this is why i like you!" and then they get really embarrassed about it, however, they dont deny anything and wait for hyoga's response.
if the term handsome could be used to describe reader i would really appreciate it. have a nice day!!! i absolutely fell in love with how you write this man
warnings: it’s very short, hyoga is sweet again, reader is referred to as handsome
While you were never one to beat around the bush— you didn’t really see a point in it— even you would admit that this was not how you planned to share your feelings with him.
It was truly like any other day, you were forcing him to train with you and through all his complaints of how he wished to train alone and how he wished you would leave him alone, he would always help you. His excuse was always that he had to make sure you weren’t going to hold him back when we have to fight, but you knew he was worried about you and the rest of the village deep down and wished for more people who were capable of fighting. However harsh his words may be, his actions always spoke louder than his words. He was strict and hard when you were sparring, but when he was demonstrating better form for certain moves, he was surprisingly gentle.
It was very obvious that he respected you very much, even if he would never say so ever.
So while others wondered why such a handsome individual as yourself, with so many people eager to get a chance to talk to you, would be so invested in talking to Hyoga of all people, it was because you knew he was not as cold and ruthless as everyone thought he was. Deep inside you were aware he cared for many, even if not everyone.
Today he went on again about how your form was very unproper and how you had blind spots everywhere, putting yourself in complete danger depending on the situation. This was not out of the ordinary, but today you were a little curious how he’d respond if you teased him a little.
“You’re quite sweet aren’t you, Hyoga,” you said.
Immediately, he paused and frowned a little.
“How could you possibly have come to that conclusion?” he asked, scoldingly.
“You may not think so, but it’s rather obvious that you do care,” you said.
“I think you’re rather delusional if anything. I’m just worried you’re not going to last minutes against any modern weapon. As of now I do not wish to imagine what’d happen if you’re against a gun of any sort,” he said, rambling on about potential dangers that you would be utterly unprepared for and it only put a smile to your face. You truly didn’t mean to say it out loud, but this was exactly why you loved him— he cares a lot.
“This is why I like you,” you said, before you could stop the words from spilling out. You were going to make something up and deny the fact, until you saw how caught off guard Hyoga looked. You had never seen him look like that ever.
So instead you stopped and looked at him, absolutely nervous, but serious. After what seemed like forever, he finally said something.
“I don’t understand, why do you like me?” he asked, confused what prompted that statement.
“Oh, because you care,” you said. “You’re sweet.”
His eyes widened and a slight smile, hardly visible, but definitely there, appeared on his face. Never in his life would he have thought you could tell his harsh words came from a place of genuine care. However, he could tell that you had slightly the wrong idea, so he had to make it clear.
“I only care about you,” he said.

i saw a post saying boom was good bc it feels like it could be done with any doctor/companion duo and honestly that was one of the things i felt was wrong with it
#in a show with a title character that could be Literally Anyone and a companion sharing the lead that could be Literally Anyone#i value the little moments that set this duo apart from the rest. ESPECIALLY when it comes to returning writers like rtd/moff#fifteen and ruby felt a little too eleven/twelve and clara adjacent in boom. in both their dialogue and characterization#space babies also landed a little weird at first bc it lifted a bit from end of the world BUT the scenes that fifteen and ruby#had to themselves. like ruby getting covered in snot and fifteen laughing. or fifteen and ruby looking after the Space Babies#or fifteen going out of his way to save the monster bc that monster is the only one of its kind Just Like Him Fr#that stuff is so good and its also something we haven't seen from another nuwho doctor. the vulnerable bleeding-heart empathy#and a dynamic w a companion that is basically 'two troublemakers that just deeply love fun and adventure and getting into trouble together'#oh yeah and also the devil's chord was peak fiction because it touches on fifteen's renewed connection and love for humanity#and marries it to ruby being a musician and how music like any art is the expression of the human soul etc etc#WHAT MAKES A DOCTOR WHO STORY GOOD TO ME IS PARTLY HOW THE PREMISE TIES INTO THE DOCTOR AND COMPANION'S CHARACTERS#IT HAS TO FEEL LIKE IT WAS TAILOR MADE TO THEM. ELSE IT WONT LAND RIGHT TO ME#i hate the take that they should've saved wild blue yonder for a fifteen episode bc#the tension is hinged on how well the doctor/companion know each other. u have a level of it that u can ONLY get#with fourteen and donna who are two halves of a whole soul but have also spent much more time missing the other than knowing them#im not rewatching fifteen's eps rn until a week later when i can watch it w my qpp but#rn i still feel a stronger sense of fifteen and ruby's characters from all the rtd-written eps rather moffat#which like. i get that a lot of that is my personal dislike of moffat's writing style but still#dr who#15 era#dw spoilers

it is genuinely saddening how i follow a third of the people i followed ~9 months ago. i miss when my queue used to spit out anything and everything; it was like one of those gumball machines where you got fun little toys out. and i had so much fun filling it w stuff being like omg friend x is gonna eat this up in three months!!! putting stuff in there to be a little forgotten treasure for myself, some kind of mini time capsule... i literally used to be known for my variety posting you know. but i've had to mow down the biodiversity of my dash aggressively to avoid catching strays and i feel like i've been curling up further and further into a ball on here like a terrified potato bug
#my queue was 600+ posts long too. and now it's at like 215 . and it's just not the fun treat it used to be#of like who knows what i'll have reblogged over night from four months ago! let's go see what new jpg it's popped out !!#a lot of this. is not the fun treat it used to be. i wont lie.#obviously i have the ability to remove myself entirely from the situation. by deactivating. but.#is it really that awful to want to keep having fun w my friends?#i guess im also kind of terrified that the moment i stop Posting/being on here i'll just like lose all the wonderful ppl on here#a lot of fear of like. im a good mutual but am i a Friend. can i come ask all of u stupid questions abt adulthood even if im not f1 posting#it's the like. annoying younger sibling feeling. of. if im no longer Providing (writing posting etc) im just a hanger-on w nothing to offer#really i need to go eat lunch i think that would solve a lot of my immediate problems lol . sorry for being morose at 1pm

Shauna's drunk. When she's drunk, she starts thinking (more than usual, that is).
Also, something's wrong.
Jackie dances in the middle of the floor. With Jeff.
Shauna is watching her from outside the mass of writhing bodies and feels horrible.
It's not that they're dancing now, as if nothing's ever happened, as if Jackie didn't cry just last night in Shauna's bed (only in the dark, silently, when she thought Shauna was sleeping. She wasn't.)
It's not even that Jackie is back together with him, even though he doesn't make her happy and Jackie knows that just as well as Shauna. Even though she keeps saying the opposite.
It's that Shauna cant stop thinking about it; that even if she forces her eyes to wander they still come back to Jackie every time, fixate on her like there's nothing else in the room.
It's that Shauna can't look anywhere but her, and that the music fades ever so slightly when she does (only for her. only ever for her.)
It's that she's dancing so closely with Jeff that they might as well be one, a single body. And it feels... wrong, just deeply, plainly wrong. It shouldn't be him.
It's that Shauna can't be happy for Jackie. It's that she's the worst best friend to ever exist.
She downs the rest of her drink, barely even tasting it.
Jackie, unaware, turns her face towards the ceiling, eyes closed. The light illuminating it turns blue.
It gives Jackie's skin an almost ethereal glow; she doesn't look real anymore, like her soul has left and all that's moving is just her body, a lifeless shell. She stills, for a second or forever - Shauna can't tell. But she's not moving anymore, and her skin turns lighter, white-ish.
Snow starts to fall. It's terribly cold.
Shauna flinches; the red solo cup crumbles beneath her grip. She feels bile rise in her throat.
It's not snow, of course it isnt; it's summer and they're inside. The spotlights are just throwing white flecks everywhere, like the ones behind Shauna's eyes when she closes them and tries to think of nothing (it never works). Jackie's moving again, blue again, with Jeff's hands all over her again.
It hits her, as sudden as a punch to the face: an overwhelming pain, something that can't be described as just 'sadness'. Something that runs so deep that not even death could expel her from feeling it.
It's still cold, impossibly so; goosebumps are covering her entire body and suddenly it's too light and too loud and too cramped and just too much and if she doesn't get out of here right the fuck now she's going to die.
The warm summer air outside and light breeze do make her feel better. There are less people out here, too; or at least Shauna can't see them. Doesn't care for them.
Everything is blurry. She's lost her cup somewhere on the way, but it doesn't matter; it was empty anyways.
Somebody - Nat? there's a shimmer of yellow, but to be honest Shauna would just like to close her eyes and lay on the ground until the earth consumes her, (out of protest against anyone who hinders her she refuses to open her eyes more than absolutely necessary) so she can't be sure - is tapping her shoulder and handing her a piece of bread, saying "for fuck sake, how much did you drink? Did you eat nothing all day or are that much of a lightweight?"
She did eat. Enough, even though she gave Jackie half of it. Well, 'gave' is relative; but she doesn't like to say she forced Jackie to eat. Doesn't think she could do that, force Jackie to do anything. Doesn't think anyone could. Not really.
But she really isn't feeling that great, and food does help more often than not, so she accepts it and watches the shimmer of blonde float away again.
She bites into the bread. It feels hard and cold and tastes salty and not at all like bread.
Shauna turns and throws up.
Somebody gathers her hair and holds it up, holds her up until she's slowly calming down. "Are you alright?" a voice asks.
Shauna looks up. It's Van, Van with her fiery red hair and a scar on her face. She blurs.
"Something's wrong." Shauna says.
"Yeah, obviously. You've had way too much, what the fuck is going on?"
"No, it's..." Shauna doesn't know how to explain. Can't explain, because how do you explain something you don't even know yourself? How do you say something you can't even think, that you don't know is true?
So she doesn't. Instead, she holds her hand out and traces Van's scar, red against white.
Blood on snow.
The skin is smooth.
Her fingertips are crawling. She feels like she did seconds (hours? How long did she lay here?) ago, when she was inside; too light and too loud and cramped. Only this time, it's not because of other people; this time, it's just herself, her own body who she wants (needs) to get rid of. There are feelings inside of her, feelings she can't contain nor express and they're building up (They've always been building up. They've always come close to being more than what she can handle. But today it feels inevitable.); there's an ocean inside of her, and it's gathering up into a wave so big it's impossible to perceive and it's gonna crash, it's gonna crash and crush her and she's gonna go down, go under and drown. She's tearing at the seams.
Van's looking at her, she realises, eyes wide and filled with an badly hidden emotion that Shauna knows intimately, can match to what's inside her, infesting her like a parasite. That sometimes overcomes her, makes her unable to move and makes her always keep Jackie halfway out (because she doesn't know what, but something's wrong with her. And if Jackie ever finds out it's going to be the end of them - the end of the only good thing Shauna has.
And she knows it's futile, knows she'll destroy it either way; by keeping Jackie out and by letting her in, but this way she can at least pretend.
She can pretend until it's too late, and then keep pretending; because deep down she knows Jackie won't ever leave her. She's imprinted in her skin, behind her eyelids, her brain; she's haunting her already, so why should that be different when she's dead?)
What she doesn't know is why Van is feeling that, why Van is even familiar with it, the bone-deep fear that infests everything she knows like a toxic gas - unable to keep out and killing everything around her.
But she's still looking at her, with the same wide eyes as minutes (seconds?) ago, her mouth slightly open.
She doesn't move, doesn't even blink - just like Shauna, who then becomes aware that she has a body too, that she is more than just a thousand thoughts and prayers and emotions, insecurity and rage, mixed up and dumped into a pocket of air. She becomes aware that her throat hurts, that there's a twig digging into her thigh, that her hand is still on Van's face, unmoving.
"Van?" a voice calls. Van flinches, and so does Shauna. She drops her hand (it lands on her lap, limp and unfeeling), and Van blinks rapidly as if to make up for all the time she didn't, and time starts moving again.
Being normal again.
Except that nothing is.
A hand lands on Van's shoulder, and this time only Shauna flinches. "Damn." Tai says. "Is she alright?"
YES, Shauna wants to say. She is alright. She is the alrightest she's ever been, so could everyone please just leave her alone? Thank you.
"I don't think so." Van says.
She's still looking at her, this time tinged with something like an understanding. A connection. Shauna doesn't want it.
"Do we have to get Jackie? I know where she is, I just saw her-"
"No."
Tai sighs. "Van, please, I'm not dealing with this tonight. First... "
She wishes she could throw up again, get out every thought and memory and watch it disappear into the ground. If it won't claim her body then maybe it'll be enough for it to claim everything that makes her her. Maybe she'll be the ground afterwards; after all, swallowing her thoughts is all she ever does. ("Just talk to someone. It'll be good for you.", her mother had said. Shauna had taken up journaling instead.)
Somebody's pulling her up to her feet.
"Shauna? Shauna, hey..."
Shauna sways, held up only by Van's arm around her waist. Her eyes land on an exceptionally blurry Tai, who's watching her with a concerned look (which is her own fault, Shauna thinks. If they just would've let the earth consume her in peace she'd be long gone already and everything would be alright.)
"Something's obviously going on." Van says. "I'm not leaving her alone, not in that state."
Both Tais glare at Van.
Shauna blinks.
Both of them are still there.
One of the Tais, the one with the longer hair, says something.
Her teeth are dark.
Maybe her bread fell into the dirt too, Shauna thinks miserably.
They're still arguing, still about her. She doesn't want them to, doesn't want them to care for her. Caring for her is not going to end well; she's a knife, a violent paper doll, hurting and destroying and incredibly fragile all the while. Waiting to be discarded.
She turns into Van and starts to cry.
"That's it." Tai (Shauna can't see which one) says. "I'm getting Lottie. Her party, her responsibility. "
Van just sighs and rubs Shauna's back.
Some time later (Shauna is confident that this is a correct estimate about how much time has passed) she's sitting on the steps to the balcony; at least, that's what she thinks based on the noises around her and the smell of weed in the air. The party is obstructed by the impossibly huge plants on the balcony, and it's too dark to make anything out except for a stream of light in front of her. She's grateful for it.
She still feels Van's touch on her back, a ghost handprint.
They're talking about her, Shauna knows, and about her. They (Van and Lottie; Tai pretended to leave but Shauna can feel her eyes from somewhere behind her) are standing a bit apart and the only thing she can hear are whispers. It's not hard though, to know what they're talking about; it's always the same thing. As if they’re entwined, as if Shauna doesn't even exist without her.
Don't get Jackie. At least theyre honoring that wish; they might pass her around like she's a particularly fucked up plant that everybody wants to get rid of as soon as possible, but god forbid anyone would want to pry Jackie from her second body.
Let's get Lottie instead.
She didn't want them to, and told them as much (which didn't do anything at all). Almost like she isn’t her own human with her own agenda; somehow, everybody keeps insisting that she can't possibly make her own decisions, that she doesn't know what she wants. Misplaced. A puppy hanging around outside, waiting to be let back in.
There's something to be said (thought) here, something that she can't grasp right now; it feels just out of reach, dancing behind closed glass doors, but it's interrupted by Lottie's shadow appearing right in front of her, cutting into the yellow light.
She isn't wearing a hat or anything, Shauna notes; which is weird considering it sort of looks that way on her shadow - as if there's a very weird tree growing from her head. Briefly, Shauna wonders if she's high - if she's simply inhaled enough smoke on her time on the balcony to make up for actually smoking.
Lottie, who's holding a joint, doesn't make that theory seem too absurd.
The smoke curls up and obstructs part of her face. Together with the dim light Lottie looks like she's hidden behind a veil.
It's cold again.
The smoke lifts, and Shauna can see Lottie's frown. She doesn't want to, doesn't want anything to make Lottie frown. Especially not to be the reason.
" -you alright? Van said you said something's wrong."
Shauna can't talk, can't get any words out. She feels too weak, suddenly, like she could just collapse right here in the steps and sleep forever. She wants to.
"Did you eat enough?" Shauna nods, hastily. She won't eat anything else tonight. Can't.
Lottie grouches. Her shadow convulses, almost following the movements of Lottie's body and forms into something else, something smaller. The branches have grown. They're almost at the border of the lightstream now. It feels like they're reaching for it. Shauna's hand finds hold on her arm, nails biting into skin.
"You know, " Lottie says, gently.
Shauna's eyes are ripped away from the... thing cowering in the light, to Lottie's eyes.
The smoke-veil has lifted completely now. There's a softness in Lottie's eyes Shauna almost never sees; and if, it's never directed at her. Only ever at Laura Lee. Nat, sometimes.
It feels like an ocean. Calm and harmless; but at the bottom, Shauna knows she'll be crushed. And she's sinking, faster than she ever did before. Her heart is a hand-grenade, beating with anger and fear, but there's something else there, too.
"There- Sometimes you don't know what's going on, and that's ok. Sometimes you're feeling things that don't make sense, or that you don't want to feel, or that make you want to rip your heart out every time you do feel them. Because you have to. And because they're so great you can't just feel them alone, because one person's just not enough but you cant talk to anyone about it because they'd kill you. Not literally. But metaphorically.
But I- I guess I just want you to know that you can talk to me about it, alright? About everything. About her. "
Lottie looks away briefly, her eyes releasing Shauna.
The joint dangles between her pointer- and ring finger, burning into her clothes or maybe not. It doesn't catch on fire.
If it would, Shauna asks herself, would her shadow be exterminated too, destroyed by the light? Or would it simply be freed?
"Shauna?" Lottie starts moving towards her.
"No." Shauna says. "Stay in the light. Please."
As long as Lottie stays right there, in the light of the half-open balcony door, the shadow will stay there too. Has to. If she lets it into the dark Shauna can't keep track of it anymore, will lose sight of it, and it's gonna envelop her, burrow itself inside her and never let her go.
"Do you still think you're a killer?" Lottie's shadow asks. "You could be. If you tried."
"I know. " Shauna's shadow says.
Lottie stills and looks at her. There's surprise in her eyes now, along with that overwhelming softness.
Shauna realises that she's sitting behind one of the plants, in the dark; there's no light. So there's no shadow. She lets her head drop to her knees.
Lottie sighs. There's a rush of air and rustling of clothes and Lottie's hand, gentle on her head.
" Oh, honey."
Shauna wishes that she could drown in her honey voice, could let herself fall and sink and go under and never come back up again. Live as her reflection. It'd be alright then; she's nothing more than fragments of a person who might've existed once anyways.
She doesn't dare look up now, now that she knows Lottie's shadow isnt contained anymore.
She doesn't dare feel anything else than her hand.
"Lottie? Uh, I think they need you inside. There's a. Well, I wouldn't call it a fight, but Tai and J-. Oh, I'm sorry, am I interrupting?"
Lottie breathes out.
"You could never, Laura Lee."
She stands up.
"Could you stay with Shauna till I'm back? She's not feeling well."
"Of course." Laura Lee says.
Shauna can only imagine the look they share, but she's seen them a thousand times so she can imagine it pretty well. It hollows her out, pulls something inside of her out piece by piece until there's nothing left. Until she's but a shell. In some way, she supposes, she's never been more.
Laura Lee sits down beside her. Shauna can feel her eyes; not concerned like Van's or inquiring like Tai's or whatever the hell Lottie was, but simply looking.
Waiting.
She always does this; sitting beside someone and simply being there until they start talking. Even if it takes forever. It always works.
She's the best of all of them. Of the team, of the world; she tries and tries and never gives up. She's never once thought about being a bad person; she's never once thought about anyone being a bad person, because she believes in the irrevocable good in anyone.
Shauna doesn't realise she's crying until she feels Laura Lee in front of her, gently trying to pry her hands from her head. They fail.
"Shauna. Shauna, please look at me."
Shauna shakes Laura Lee off.
"I can't." she says, muffled. "If I do, something bad's gonna happen."
"To me?"
Shauna doesn't know. Van's scars weren't ever there. Of the two Tai's that went to get Lottie only one came back, and none remained. And Jackie's still dancing.
"Something weird is happening, Laura Lee. Something bad, and I don't know what to do against it, how to stop it, what to-"
Laura Lee stops her struggles against Shauna's arms.
"You know. Some things you can't stop. Some things are just bound to happen, and you can't avoid them. They're going to find you anyway. But, once you're through, you're a stronger person."
"I don't think this is supposed to happen." Shauna says. And, then: "Wait, you mean like a test? from God?"
Shauna can't hear it, can't feel it, and yet she knows the expression Laura Lee makes. When she starts talking again, though, her voice is just as gentle as before.
"I don't like calling it a test."
"Why?"
"Because it implies that you can fail."
Shauna sniffles.
"What, you don't think you can fail?"
You don't think I'm set up for failing, for being the worst possible person with every step I take.
"I don't think he'd do that. He didn't create us to fail, he created us to be good."
"Is that in the bible?"
"I'm not bound to the bible, Shauna." She hears the smile in Laura Lee's voice. "Look at me? Please?"
It was stupid to believe she'd get through with this. Laura Lee listens, and talks, and keeps company until it works. And it always works.
Slowly, Shauna looks up.
The night sky is much darker here, with Lottie's house being out of town and less polluted by the street lights.
Shauna knows, though right now it's being largely obscured by Laura Lee's face, painted blue by the moonlight. There's a light breeze, and warmth, and the giggles of random boys who probably went outside with a stolen joint or something.
It doesn't matter, though. All that matters is Laura Lee.
There's so much love, so much certainty in her eyes that Shauna feels herself simultaneously recoil and wanting to come closer; to submerge herself in the belief Laura Lee holds, that spans her world, endless like the sky.
How one person can have so much faith, Shauna doesn't know. Can't imagine. Wishes she could.
If Lottie is the dark, all shadow and hidden half-smiles, then Laura Lee is light incarnate.
"It's going to be alright." she says, and for once, Shauna believes her (because it's said with such conviction, such immense knowledge that Shauna can't not believe her.)
The sky starts to burn. There are snakes of fire, a place of smoke, rising around Laura Lee's head like a halo.
A second later, there's a boom. It shatters the earth and Shauna's heart, vibrating deep in her bones.
"What the fuck?" Lottie shouts from somewhere behind Laura Lee, who's still towering over Shauna, hair still reflecting the light.
"Who the fuck brought fireworks? I swear to God and everything that's holy, I will get your asses, and you will never show your godforsaken face here again."
Fireworks. Of course.
Shauna exhales, shakily.
It rains blue and purple fire around Laura Lee's head.
In the moonlight, it looks like snow.
Is she right back where she started?
"Did you see? Nothing happened." Laura Lee smiles, tentatively. "I'm alright."

i could draw anything but i decided to draw this. carlo and rocco in 1932 aka my headache
#^ this isnt real ofc but its what happening inside their heads (well in carlo's at least)#mfs when their old friend doesn't break under manipulation#“Lift up the receiver I'll make you a believer” punching the wall with fist#rocco was the underboss not eddie can u hear me!!!!!!!!!!! HELLO!!!!!!!!! (capo henry situation in terms of complexity)#no m2 did smth to my brain and now im incapable of writing normal relationship between people#anyway. things that makes sense only to me rn unfortunately:#“AND YET ALAS I WELCOME YOU KNOWING ABOUT YOU” its carlo @ rocco but works both ways i think. RAHHHHHHHHH#YET YOU THINK WE'RE THE SAME RAHHHHHHHHH#youre not who u are to anyone these days im not who i am to anyone no not me at all these days not at all RAHHHHHHHHH#carlo who was afraid of rocco (for a reason) when he started to run the family rahhhhhhhhh#“That son of a bitch!.. I fuckin’ knew it!” <-watch me put a lot more meaning into a phrase that shouldn't make so much sense#2kczech need to pay me for developing rocco's character btw if u even care . and for writing this fucking falcone family backstory#“Холодный и острый осколок гранита; Смерть Голиафа в руке Давида”#<- “A cold and sharp shard of granite; Goliath's death in David's hand”#i've listened to this song too much it became certifed rocco song to me#let's say rocco helped carlo a lot w preparing moretti family for a new don. just bc i don't think it was this simple#“your capo killed your don lets all pretend that its cool and normal and it doesn't matter that he ran the family for 23 years😋😘”#avart#m2#i wont tag this w fandom tags dear god this shit is so delusional#dear god rocco been a gap and a blank spot in this story for so long but now i genuinely like him#tho i'm still not done with his character yet but there's enough for me to like him#sorry. not normal bout them. not at all .#rocco & carlo

i think a good yandere needs to at least be a little pathetic
#thinking about nonsense again this morning#like what makes a yandere excellent at their job you know LMAO#also im like comparing “yandere's” made by people from different countries in my mind#i feel like u need to remove the shame from ur body if u wanna make a top tier yandere#not shaming anyone cause ik i would have problems doing it#like a part of my brain is always like...but that bad#so it ruins any attempts#u always feel like u need to rehabilitate them#i dont think that necessarily ruins it tbh cause ive seen it done well before#but....that person will be going to jail#“jessica he killed 5 people you cant stay with him sorry”#either that or they need to leave cause they cant stay here you know?#idk if im making sense#also i think u need to be honest about the type of character ur making#like if u wanna make a yandere#do it with ur chest and tell people how its gonna be#so people who hate that shit wont get attached to said character and get upset that theyre toxic#well i mean it can still happen with warnings but u know#itll be less of an issue#i think being honest will also prevent u from being kinda wishy washy with it if that makes sense#U GOTTA DO IT WITH CONFIDENCE AND NO SHAME#or its gonna flop#its like trying to write smut with shame....

thinking about sanji, re. romantic relationships right now and of course, gonna preface by saying, we're not acknowledging the gross parts of canon. we're talking about sanji at his essence here --- but, it's easy to say that he's the Perfect Guy. he's doting, loving, respectful, would worship you, kill for you, die for you if that's your thing. he's a True Gentleman. but, the guy has some intense emotional hang-ups and is so marred by trauma that it runs intensely deep as it does with so many in the crew in general.
sanji will be in a relationship, would thrive beneath reciprocated love and affection. the man is on a high just thinking of it, legs trembling, sweat breaking, can't function.
but --- i also think about how there's the possibility of him conjuring up doubts in his mind over whether he's worthy of you at all at the end of the day. he's constantly giving and giving with no expectation of return because all he's concerned with is what can he do to keep you around, to keep you loving him, how does he make himself useful, reliable, etc. the man needs reassurance and validation in possibly excessive amounts because otherwise, he's privately worrying, going crazy thinking about whether he deserves love, deserves anyone's love.
i think that in order for sanji to also be his healthiest self in a relationship, at some point, discovering his self worth is paramount. and actively working on that, and having an understanding partner who isn't going to exploit that aspect about him.
#i have More thoughts but theyre not even half articulated enough#to put in a post#but what im trying to say is.#sanji is a fairytale man but he's also deeply deeply traumatized and wounded#and esp post wano#can u imagine the WORRY he must be feeling#that he might hurt someone unintentionally because of his mutation#i think towards the end there he gains a little confidence#that he wont because zeff taught him better#because his friends make him better#because he IS HIS OWN PERSON#but thats only a stepping stone#he hasnt processed ANYTHING#he hasnt had the time#anyways i want to write healing sanji#and how it makes him less of a worships at your feet with no regard for himself#but more of a worships at your feet and knows he deserves love back#*✭˚・゚✧*・゚* ⸻ member of the sogeking fanclub ( ooc ).#sanji.#tbt.#study.
