reader: gn! Reader
parings: highschool! geto, gojo
warnings:none?? I don’t think so
(a/n): SUGURU ON THE MIND!!!! esp after that new ep gawd damn
Tumblr media
✰GOJO
HES SUCH A LOSER BF
like you knew it from the way he asked you out
he planned to ask you out by making a cake that said "date me?" on it
he thought it was romantic
but gojo srsly cant cook
he even though he really likes sweets he cant even fry an egg so the cake turned out something like... imagine the worst cake possible with frosting everywhere and the message on top of the cake is unreadable and the cake is a weird brown color? yeah its like that
you agreed to go out with him anws
if you ever get in a fight hes definitely pullin up to fight with you, no matter how wrong you are
"cats are dogs" "yea they're basically animals so they're the same!"
will ask to copy homework EVERY. SINGLE TIME.
he claims that he trusts you like you grades vould be going downhill and he would still borrow urs
is the type of person to accidentally copy the name too
such a virgin everyone says he's a major f-boy but in reality he has never felt another person touch him romantically
he gives you goofy grins whenever he does sth stupid (and when he does it's mostly bc he wants to see you laugh)
calls you the most ridiculous pet names "sugar bby pookie bear"
also likes referring to you as candies like he called you liquorice one time???
has a habit of applying lip gloss... like A LOT.
"can I kiss u babe" "yeah lemme put on lip gloss rq" *proceedes to spend 10 whole minutes smacking his lips and applying lip gloss*
really big on pda hes suuupperrrr into it, but he'll tone it down if you're uncomfortable
if ur into it tho? he kisses you every two secs
TAKES THE WORST DATING ADVICE EVER FROM THE TRIO
"guys where shld I bring (name) on a date?" "Bring her to a sewer, that way they'll be scared and hug you."-geto "idk a therapist?"-shoko (in the end you were just grossed out, but he somehow makes it sweet and wholesome at the same time?)
✰GETO
he texts you a lot of memes (I'm sure this is widely agreed throughout the fandom lol)
doesn't hug you a lot in public but he does wrap his arm around your shoulder
he wouldn't be reallyyyy affectionate but if you are he'll accept your hugs with a little smile
he likes my melody more than kuromi
his love language is quality time, sometimes you'll spend dates just lounging out on the couch and doing nothing. However, he thinks it's much nicer than just being by himself
really great memory, he notices those small details about you that no one else does, or even the ones you're unaware of like when you always fold a napkin when you're at a restaurant yk hes cute like that
asks the weirdest questions ever: "do you think I'm a squirrel or a chipmunk?" respond with "I think you're an idiot" QUICK!!!
he gets super moody when his hair ties are missing, he has a whole bag of them at his dorm
allows you to give him silly hairstyles when he's sleepin <3
loves truth or dare and 20 questions
has a weird obsession with puzzles and he likes it if he’s piecing one together with you
he also gets competitive without knowing. Like even with you if you guys are at an arcade and you win him at basketball hoops he’s bitter
”let’s do it again I was not ready” “you said that 5 times and I still won” “NO”
he believes in astrology stuff
is more emotionally attracted to people than physically
he may come off as cold but he just doesn’t express as much as gojo
he sometimes paints (mostly watercolor) and a lot of them are of you or are inspired by you <333
MY POOKIE!!! Free my man he did nothing wrong!!!!

Hey!! Can I please request headcanons of how Oikawa, Kuroo and Atsumu ask you out? Maybe even first date headcanons thrown in as well. You can write for one or two of them if you don't want all three. Thank you in advance <33
★ ASKING YOU OUT
Tumblr media
୨ৎ featuring: oikawa tooru, kuroo tetsuro, atsumu miya
୨ৎ notes: FIRST RQ AND ITS ALREADY MOST OF MY FAVORITE BOYS!! ty anon hope u like it <3
Tumblr media
★ TOORU OIKAWA ?!
This guy has no shame — he knows he's hot shit. Honestly, it's a miracle he didn't ask you out sooner. The only reason is that he doesn't want to mess things up with you. Getting broken up with by his last (and first) girlfriend hurt a bit more than he'd care to admit.
Butters you up throughout the day before actually asking, and he's SO obvious about it. "Have I told you that you're amazing, beautiful, drop-dead gorgeous, and—" okay Tooru we get it.
As for what the first date is... I want to say the movies, but I feel like he's the type that wants to actually talk instead of just sitting in silence for an hour or two. So maybe a coffee shop. (He doesn't like coffee at all but enjoys the tranquility of the place so he just asks for a hot cocoa or something).
Throws the weirdest questions at you to get to know you better. They're not weird, per se, but definitely unusual, and he gets a little poetic with it. First one he asked was "If you had to pick a favorite moment in your entire life, what would it be?"
Insists on taking you home after. One, because he wants to make sure you get there safe, two, because he's a total romance sap and will try to kiss you at your doorstep after thanking you and emphasizing that he had such a great time.
★ KUROO TETSURO ?!
Okay look... I know this is supposed to be how they ask you out but Kuroo is such a sneaky fucker I feel like he'd somehow turn things around and make it look like YOU'RE the one asking HIM out.
See my vision: you ask him for help with chemistry because he's a total nerd, and he does that coy "Hmmm dunno, will I help you?" thing even though he definitely will, he just wants you to look a little desperate. When you insist he just kind of sighs and goes "Fine, fine. I'll go on a study date with you. Don't keep me waiting, tiny." and he just LEAVES while you're standing there like ???
The date itself is pretty much what you would expect in a study date — just him explaining the subject and looking incredibly hot doing so for absolutely no reason, but he's a bit more touchy than usual. Sitting next to you and wrapping an arm around your shoulder while he uses his free hand to leaf through the book. Tucking a strand of hair behind your ear while you write stuff down. I'm going to be sick.
Doesn't do anything too forward, meaning he doesn't try to kiss you unless you do first, but he will suggest "We should do this at my place next time," with a shit eating grin on his face.
★ ATSUMU MIYA ?!
He tries his best to be casual about it and bring it up naturally. The last thing he wants is to look desperate (even though he definitely is), so he just keeps dropping hints until he finds a good opening to ask.
Restaurant date! No way Osamu is the only one who loves food. He just kind of mentions offhandedly that a new place just opened nearby and they have the best tempura. You say that you're hungry and he just grins. "Perfect. Let's go, then." He's already walking so you don't have time to think about it too much and change your mind.
For some reason I feel like he's a bit of a clown when he likes someone. You know the type. Will probably have you choking on your food a few times that night. But he's also a damn show off, so he insists on paying (even though he doesn't have money to spare like that).
He's already internally sighing when he realizes he's gonna have to borrow money from Osamu to make up for what he spent on your date, but he immediately forgets about it when he sees the happy look on your face.

your actor au is a joy to read through whenever you post in the tag. may i ask which characters would surprisingly be related to each other? (ie cousins, siblings, married, hell even in-laws, etc.)
I accidentally lost all three hours of progress I had for this and had to rewrite it.
Also, I'm so happy you're enjoying the AU!
These are all I can remember at the moment and from current global patches.
It's really long though 😓
Isolde, Theophil and Trista are some of the weirdest siblings in the set. They're all so quiet (except for Theophil) but they're actual sweethearts (except Trista).
They mess around with each other, usual siblings banter and annoying each other by taking things without permission. It's always nice to see them bantering around in the set, especially when they act like annoying siblings to each other.
Isolde: Theopiiiilll, you're painting it wrong!
Theophil: Those are just guide lines, Isolde. I can paint out of them because they're not going to be seen after.
Isolde: ...It looks messy
Theophil: Isolde!
Trista taking a sip of her apple juice: So this must be art...
They're all so close to each other so they're not toxic or malevolent to one another. Mess with one and you get the Dittarsdorf on your door.
Trista is actually the most evil of the three because she's the youngest. She has threatened to tell Klara about Isolde's crush on her if Isolde doesn't give her what she wants.
Isolde and Trista were cast for their respective characters. Isolde's experience as a performer and Opera Singer guaranteed her the role, while Trista was left to play herself and young Isolde. Theophil wasn't supposed to be a character until they realized they needed someone to appear in later scenes, he was actually hired to paint and help with the scenery.
Greta and Adler Hoffman are not close siblings, but you know that they're sister and brother by a glance. They both lived their own lives separately, nearly 40 years old so they're not so close to one another, but you can tell they still care for each other. When young they took acting classes, who would have thought it would get them here.
Though this is the only time they have worked together. Greta has always been into field work and connections while Adler has never been that into interactions so he works inside his house.
Schneider and Miriam are actually funny siblings. Schneider was cast for chapter 1 and 2, and since their mother is sick, Miriam had to drive her to the audition (Schneider doesn't have a license).
Turns out looking like you sleep 3 hours a day and having such an anxious personality got her a role. Quite funny actually. Miriam took acting classes but then dropped, too anxious. Schneider persisted through the years.
Miriam is actually glad to act with her sister, she's the introverted one while Schneider is the extroverted one.
Though, Schneider likes to mess around with Miriam a lot, she's slightly evil but truly cares about her anxiety driven sister.
They have another older sister but she's into medicine, they don't have that many sisters, they found it funny when they were told they had 11 sisters in the story. Thankfully only the two of them were ever mentioned.
Horropedia and Twins Sleep, can you see my vision?
They mess around a lot with Horropedia, sometimes they spook him by acting creepy, other times they take his stuff. They're in that age where they follow him around and copy him, he's so annoyed.
Horropedia: I'm currently busy with homework, could you get out of my room?
Louis and Louisa: *giggling* nuh-uh!
Horropedia: I'm going to call mom.
He truly cares for them but oh Lord they truly have to leave him alone, he's so tired of dealing with their mischief.
They were cast separately, weeks apart thankfully. He wouldn't have been able to take it if they were cast the same day.
Bessmert and Vertin, mother and daughter. I'm not sure if this is canon or is about to become canon, I just see them together.
Vertin has always been into acting, and Bessmert is a writer, they compliment each other a lot. Bessmert was hired to help with the script and since she has a daughter studying acting, they wanted to see what she could do.
Amazing actress, they knew she had to be their main character.
Bessmert's acting experience is quite nothing so she had to learn in order to participate in 1.6, she did amazing, her acting style is similar to her daughter.
No one should tell Vertin about Yenisei's fleeting crush on her mother.
Regulus: So you have a mother!
Vertin: ...
Bessmert: ?
Mr. Karson is Sotheby's father. In the story, he plays as her butler, but in real life, he's her father. Sotheby has no siblings, she's a little spoiled as well but she was taught well by Karson.
Filming the scene where Karson died was actually pretty sad for Sotheby. It made her realize she would one day lose him and she was afraid, they had to give her some free time in between scenes so she could recover.
It's never easy for a child to realize they would one day lose their parents, but Sotheby took it pretty well. She manages to recover and Karson stays by her side the whole time.
They have such a good relationship. Though Mr. Karson doesn't approve of Regulus' influence.
Tooth Fairy and Z are MARRIED. It's a long story, it deserves its own ask but I'll try to make it short.
Tooth Fairy and Z have known each other since highschool, not a great relationship there, but it started to flourish around College. They've been married for a year and a half now.
Though they were never meant to be acting, Constantine offered them a role. Turns out they're natural in the acting department, though they would never act outside of Reverse 1999. Tooth Fairy (yes she adores that nickname now) is a graduate in medicine while Madam Z (She prefers to be called Z even before R1999) is a graduate in accounting and economics.
Pavia and Mondlicht are cousins! They haven't seen each other in a while though, Pavia was raised in Italy while Mondlicht was born in Germany years after. They see each other on birthdays or something of the sort.
Imagine their surprise when they saw each other in the same set for the same movie with similar characters.
Was it planned? Probably.
Blonney and Jessica have known each other since highschool and have been dating for 3 years. Jessica is two years older than Blonney (22) but she was held two years, it was thanks to Blonney that she graduated.
They're currently in College, though taking different careers. One is taking Filmmaking (Blonney) and the other is taking acting (Jessica)
Blonney plans to become a filmmaker with a side career in acting while Jessica plans to only be an actress. It works though, they can play as each other's couple in all movies they're in.
Kakania (Goes by her name, Klara) doesn't have siblings, she's actually an only child. Her parents are family all took medicine, accounting, economics and such, she's the only one who chose to be an actress.
The people who play as her family were cast to play that part, though she gets along with them really well since she still has to spend some time to get used to each other and act like family.
She took acting as a side study while taking medicine, she had to drop medicine eventually since she couldn't find enjoyment in it.

Hello!
What kind of outfits/clothing pieces were a staple in Demri Parrott's everyday wear?
Thanks so much!
Barbara Dearaujo: “Demri was a fashion nut. She loved everything vintage. Victorian style dresses, 70’s stuff, overalls and combat boots. She wore things no one else could even try to pull off without looking like a weirdo but she always seemed to make the weirdest things look cute and cool. I’m pretty sure Demri was one of the girls who started the so-called ‘Seattle Grunge Look’, for girls at least. Demri was not a rocker chick, she totally had her very own style going on that we all secretly wanted to emulate.
In the early 90’s she dressed in all kinds of crazy yet cute clothes, anything retro or vintage. She loved long dresses, skirts, tutus, overalls and Doc Martins, hand-made clothes, she never really wore jeans and t-shirts, it was always something you’d never think of wearing but looked great on her and made you wish you would thought of this type of thing but even if you had it probably wouldn’t of looked as cool on you. She had that tiny little body that looks great in clothes.
She always wore her hair really long like to her butt or longer and she had thick wavy auburn hair. It was usually knotted and dred locked here and there but knotted or not it always looked cool. She wore black nail polish and when she wore make up she used maybe some black mascara and red lips but she didn’t usually wear a lot of make up, maybe except for lipstick when she went out. She was also the first girl I met who used her lipstick to add blush to her cheeks.” [5]
Tumblr media
[Spring 1990 - by Krista Kay]
Ryan Kalsbeck: “Layne and Dem had that full on vintage clothing styles mixed with a hippie, new grunge rock twist. Homemade glass beaded long necklaces and bracelets, funky hats, hair sticks. Dem had pink lace and satin knickers that were real and from the 1900s.”
Tumblr media
[1992 - By Alison Dyer]
Sherri: “She would always wear the rolled up overalls with black tights. She was so cute and original. Biggest smile, she always lit up the room. Heart of gold!”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
[1991 - By Ed Chalfa]
Jacque: “As to her clothing style, it was kind of hippy chick but distinctively Demri.”
Tumblr media
[1988 - By Krista Kay]
Kathleen Austin: “Someone once told me she would show up at a club in an outfit and the next night there would be several girls copying it.
She could pull articles of clothing that no one would think to combine and she would look adorable. She once designed a skirt from boxer shorts. I saw it on paper. As far as I know, it never came to fruition.” [6]
Tumblr media
[Ca. 1990s - ByJack Plasky]
Shawna Murphy: “I had one of her necklaces ‘Forever’. It was like black cut glass stones, three strands with a gold clasp. She wore a lot of old-timey costume jewelry.” [6]
Tumblr media
[Ca. 1990s - By Jack Plasky]
Tracy Johnson: “She did not want to be known as the girlfriend of a rock star and did whatever the hell she pleased but was friendly and personable to everyone she met. She wanted to be a model that’s why there are so many pictures of her posing. One thing that was funny. We were in Canada (canvouver, as we called it) and Dem couldn’t find Layne and was drunk and pissed off. But she has to pee, so we stopped and she walked in this alley, many people were around, and she just squatted and peed, then pulled up her long johns with her tutu tucked in the back of it and started to walk away. She was gonna find him come hell or high water, even with the whole backside of her tutu tucked into her long johns and wearing converse, of course.
A lot of things she wore didn’t go together, like long johns with big baggy overall shorts and a frilly blouse with cowboy boots. It doesn’t make a lot of sense but you would have to know Demri to understand.” [6]

Siblings and Questions Tag!
Thanks for the tag @cain-e-brookman! (x) Oh, the fun I had answering those!
1. Who looks the most like Dad?
Nikolas. When he first started going to school, lots of teachers would not stop looking at him, because he reminded them of someone else. He thinks he and his father share a lot in common, even some of the drinking problems. Although he would never treat his brothers the way he had treated him or Edvardas. And since they only share the same mother, the other one would be Danielius. He's a carbon copy of his own father.
2. Who looks the most like mom?
Edvardas. He's got her eyes and nose. But Adamas is the one who is most similar to their mother in personality.
3. Who eats the most?
Danielius. There's a good chance that you might bump into him in the kitchen late at night, when he is trying to find something to snack on in the fridge. However, Robertas love to sneak bites off his brother's foods as well. He lives by the motto that sharing is caring.
4. Who has been in the weirdest situations?
Definitely Edvardas. Let's just say that he's always been a bit difficult. He used to storm out of the house and disappear for over a week sometimes. Causing his brothers to worry about his whereabouts because he would not bother contacting them. And ever since he was young, he would always find himself in trouble without even looking for it. He has some stories to tell.
5. Who sleeps the most?
Danielius. He goes to bed around three am and can sleep till noon.
6. Most stable romantic life?
I'd say probably Nikolas, since he was so close to getting married once, but he had ended it abruptly. He doesn't date around unless he's certain about a connection. Edvardas is a serial dater. He has had far too many partners over the years. Robertas had been in two serious relationships before, one of them being long-distance. Adamas never dated. And Danielius, well, he's still young. He's got his eyes currently on someone. But he's not sure about how she feels about him.
7. Worst habit of each one?
Nikolas has substance issues, so that makes him unreliable. Edvardas is hot headed, and tends to act before thinking. Robertas takes other people's stuff without asking. Adamas can be a bit far too independent sometimes, and he tends to go behind people's backs. And Danielius procrastinates.
8. Who's the most dramatic?
Edvardas. Come on, we are literally talking about the man, who had run away from his family the moment he had found out that he's got some mumbo jumbo super powers.
9. Who had a weird phase?
No one, really. Well, I don't consider most of the things weird. I do think that Adamas likes listening k-pop, and even today, you'd see him making new playlists with the songs that he had discovered recently. Robertas went through a goth phase.
10. Best cook of the family?
Edvardas. He works as a chef, and I can tell you that he is so good at it, that he would throw me out of the kitchen. And would ask me to stop using so many spoons because he doesn't understand what I am trying to make. His love language is cooking for people he loves.
11. Best memory together?
You know, there's too many of those. So many of the best memories stem from childhood where they were practically inseparable. They would always be playing together outside. They would go camping every summer. And after their father had gone to sleep, they would stay up all night around the bonfire, and tell each other scary stories. Probably with Danielius slowly drifting off to sleep and falling asleep on Rob's shoulder.
12. Worst memory together?
My dear friends, this is a spoiler.
13. Dream trip together
They don't really have anything in mind. But someone like Edvardas would probably want to go to hitch a ride and go somewhere. At least to take a temporary break from magic and just feel normal again. Remember what it is like to be a human without many responsibilities.
14. Would you rather not be able to shower for a month or have the same clothes for a month?
Nikolas would be most straightforward with his answer. Have the same clothes for a month. Edvardas and Robertas would be so baffled, they would end up getting into an argument. Adamas would be busy laughing at those two. Danielius would end up scratching his nose and think about it for hours. And would forget what you even initially asked him because his mind wandered off somewhere else.
15. Who's the older one?
Nikolas.
16. Role model?
Without hesitation, Adamas would always pick Nikolas. He admires his eldest brother far too much, and is thankful for how he kept the family together despite many struggles that they had run into.
17. Who usually has the worst ideas?
You know, it would be far too obvious if I answered Edvardas, right? So, let's go with Danielius for this one. He also has a tendency to think with his heart before using his brain. And while it is too much of a spoiler to give out why I am saying so, he almost got himself in trouble in order to save Medeina.
18. A GIANT insect is on the wall, who's taking care of it?
If it's a spider, Danielius is screaming and running out of the room, only to never be seen again. Or hiding behind Robertas or Nikolas. If it is a beetle, Robertas would pick it up and bring it outside, without much disgust. Usually the insects love him.
Tagging: @alintalzin @mrbexwrites @satohqbanana @addomfarm-ogf-updates @darkangel319 & anyone else who wants to do it!

This might be a controversial opinion, but I personally like the idea of magic existing alongside Aura and Semblances. I think the idea of a story having multiple distinct magic systems, especially if one is more powerful and mysterious than the other, is really neat.
But the key word here is "Distinct". In order for this idea to work, the differences between magic and Aura need to be clear. But, there are no rules for what semblances can do (Except not turning you into a bird. That is the sole rule of semblances), and there are no rules for what magic can do either. In fact, it seems like semblances can actually do more than magic in RWBY.
Semblances let people:
Enhance their physical and mental capabilities
Manipulate Luck
Create all different kinds of Illusions
Summon eidolons
Shrink objects
Turn objects into gold (Yes, really)
Telekinetically manipulate objects
Shapeshift into rose petals or iron (Only bird related shapeshifting is banned, apparently)
Absorb various types of energy to become stronger
Teleport
Turn invincible for 60 seconds (This is the weirdest one to me)
Fly
Mess with people's minds in various ways
Steal or copy other people's Semblances
And other stuff I'm probably forgetting
Meanwhile, magic lets you:
Fly
Shapeshift into birds (and presumably other forms, but we literally never see that)
Manipulate the weather
Shoot fire, lightning, and ice.
Create, lock, and unlock weird doors
Obviously, this is doesn't work. Semblances can do practically everything magic can and more. Meaning that magic doesn't feel different or special in any way.
So, what would need to be changed? The most obvious route would be to restrict Semblances.
One way to do this is just create a list of things Semblances cannot do. Such as:
Semblances cannot physically change their user's body. While we're at it, let's also add that Semblances cannot physically transmute other objects either so no shrinking or turning shit into gold.
Semblances cannot create fire, earth, ice, lightning, etc., only Dust can do that (God, I haven't brought up Dust yet). And anything that a Semblance does create is just an Aura construct that will vanish like Weiss's Summons or Sun's Clones.
Semblances cannot grant flight. A bit pedantic, but the scene of Amber first using her Maiden powers by floating into the air would hit harder if flying isn't something normally attainable in RWBY.
While I would like to add more stuff to the list of cannots, when defining a power system based on what is can't do, it's best to keep the list of restrictions short.
Another way to limit Semblances create specific categories that Semblances fall into and have each Semblance be some variation based on their category. For example:
Enhancement: These Semblances enhance the user's pre-existing capabilities in some way when used. This would cover stuff like Harriet's, Neon's, and Ruby's speed (And Ruby's would stay speed, none of that pseudo-teleport stuff), Ironwood's super willpower, Maria's preflexes, Hazel's pain tolerance or fast Aura regeneration (Pick one), and maybe Tock's 60 seconds of invincibility (though I still think that's dumb).
Absorption: These Semblances can absorb damage to make the user stronger. This would cover stuff like Yang taking damage and then getting a limit break, Nora absorbing specifically electricity, and Adam storing damage in his weapon and then returning it.
Manipulation: These Semblances allow their users to manipulate objects around them. This would cover Pyrrha's polarity, Glynda's telekinesis, and Neptune's hydrokinesis (which only exists in the books).
Constructs: These Semblances allow for the creation of constructs made of Aura. These constructs aren't permanent and disappear after time or if the user's Aura breaks. This would cover Weiss's glyphs and summons (though, I personally think these two powers are too different to be a single Semblance), Sun and Flynt's clones, Neo's illusions, Blake's after images, Vine's whips, and Elm's sticky feet.
Mind: These Semblances allow for the manipulation of the minds of other beings. This would cover Emerald's illusions, Ren's emotion suppression (In canon, it only masks your negative emotions from Grimm, but here, it would actually dampen your feelings while used), Fox's telepathy, Yatsuhashi's memory erasure, Marrow's freeze (here, it would be mental manipulation, rather than however the hell it works in canon), and Robyn's handshake of truth.
Any other Semblances in the show would be altered to fit one of these categories or cut entirely.
Finally, another option would be to cut Semblances completely. Instead, have Aura techniques that characters can use by manipulating their Aura in special ways:
Sending out sword beams of condensed Aura from their weapon swings to attack from a distance. THIS IS A CANON TECHINQUE. I want to stress this, Aura techniques are already a thing. Blake shots a sword beam at Roman in V2, and Qrow does the same to Winter in V3.
Leaving behind a physical shadow made of Aura to take a hit. At higher skill levels, these clones can even more and attack on their own, like what Adam did with his shadow clones in the fight against Yang in V6 (Which means that this is also a canon Aura technique, I guess?)
By expending a some Aura, people can temporarily increase their speed or strength in short bursts. Stuff like Ruby's speed would be handled with this.
Aura normally covers the body like, well, an aura, but it can be extended and manipulated. This allows for the creation of Aura whips from the hand or Aura anchors from the feat to duplicate affects similar to Vine's and Elm's Semblances in canon.
Aura can be used to activate dust (this comes from the Dust WoR video, which seems to be noncanon now) and manipulate its effects. This allows for technics like Weiss's Glyphs or that funky glass stuff that Cinder used in V2.
And finally, a secret technique passed down through the Schnee family allows the creation of an Aura construct that mimics a foe the summoner has bested (A mental requirement more than anything). While powerful, it is incredibly taxing on the summoner's Aura.
Here, Aura itself becomes the main power system akin to something like Ki from Dragon Ball or Hamon from JoJo. After awhile, the audience would get a feel for what it can do, but the writers would still have some freedom to introduce new techniques so long as they aren't too out of line with what's already been shown. Obviously, this would limit the collective abilities of Hunters more than any other option (and require the most changes to canon), but in doing so, it would could magic even more notable.

do you ever think about the fact pokemon had on disc dlc since 1996 basically. like that was around the time discs for video games started becoming common. and like yeah i think there's bugs to get most of the early ones and game freak is actually adding them to games now which is neat but like. not only were mythicals one of the earliest examples of on disc dlc they were also an early example of fomo being exploited to sell copies. bc there are literally Pokémon you can’t get At All if you don’t get the game in the timespan game freak does events for it! and the weirdest part about this is that those scummy tactics came about originally entirely as an accident. because mew was programmed in so last minute even some people involved in the game dev didn’t even know about it and there was literally no other way to distribute this weird additional pokemon because you can’t patch a gameboy cartridge online. mew was not a marketing tactic, though it did end up being a big draw, it was genuinely just a result of the early pokemon games being a chaotic passion project (fun fact you can find basically the entire dev history of the first two games online if you wanna see more of that very chaotic dev process. which is actually very common in creating games art is inherently kind of a chaotic mess to make i'm sure most games go through the wild changes early pokemon did and we just dont have massive amounts of dev info leaked from hackers).
like the original pokemon games were not expected to be as popular as they were. like gamefreak wasn’t total nobodies or anything they have worked on successful games before pokemon but it wasn’t intended to be a massive hit it was just expected to be like. a gameboy game. that’d sell reasonably well and be reasonably popular. and it’s wild to see how stuff that kind of came about bc of a very eventful development and last minute decisions become a scummy marketing practice.

Hi, Swetha! I was on Pinterest adding Gwynriel fan art to one of my boards when I stumbled across a fan art that made me do a double take. It was Azriel and apparently Elain. The art showed him and Elain in the library, her wearing a teal dress, a white ribbon in her hair, a bracelet on her wrist, his shadows curling around her with a Pegasus in the background…? This isn’t hate towards the artist, I mean no disrespect, and I apologize if I come off that way. But it’s funny how e/riel’s claim we steal their aesthetic (they do it with Feysand – Hades & Persephone), but they’ve tried to make canon Elain into their fanon Elain (multiple times), to where she’s like Gwyn. I have the link to the art. Even the comments thought it was Gwyn, but the poster said according to the artist, it’s Elain.
I know Elriels claim a lot of outlandish nonsense while being the world's weirdest Hypocrites ...
Art doesn't ever have to strictly be limited by Canon it can be inspirational or aspirational or more .... so my problem is not how they borrow elements that are Gywnriel and add it to their art ... because let's face it we just have a lot more to play with than bread and roses .... so by all means let them get inspired by Gwynriel atleast then I will stop getting the weird sense of deja vu with their pieces, my issue is this aggressive assault that we are "copying" their stuff ...
As a commissioner I can tell you I would rather stop commissioning art than ever have a Gwynriel Piece remotely close to one of their pieces .... same can't be said about them can we ... (cough cough my MFT comm and my reflections comm) so you are right .... their hypocrisy is both astounding and embarrassing to them . At this point I don't even know what motivates them to spend that sort of time being pathetic Must be a whole heap of empty time on hand .
People should just go and do whatever they like without bothering one another. On a side note.... we have a lot of fantastic art in the making for Gwynriel weeks and I can't wait for it 🤗

Look, I yell that I hate the BT and DZ fandom (and honestly the Jrock fandom in general) a lot. Not everyone tho, my friends are BT and DZ fans, they are the evidence to me that not everyone is trash. And I have spoken to some people online that... well the chats die or we don't really get along too well but they weren't bad people at all, not getting along isn't enough for me to scream they suck cause sometimes stuff just doesn't work and that's fine.
I wanna explain what I mean when I yell about the trash of the fandom. I won't be giving names (except one), but I will be giving reasons.
We have:
Clowns who go "minors DNI" but will send and request nudes when in contact with 17 year olds AND UNDER or write insanely sexual stuff around them. (17 is still a minor, pedos, and everything under that age is even fucking worse)
People who claim Atsushi was abusive towards his cats cause the cat pics are "clearly" just for attention... like bruh, there are quite some cat pics, sure, especially of Tsubaki... but do you even realize for how many years this man had cats? Compared to those years, there aren't many pics at all... that is like just a few pics per year, probably not even once a month. If he wanted to "exploit his cats for attention" he would have made a social media where he would show content of his cats daily doing the weirdest shit with them. Did he? No. He wasn't abusive.
Fuckers that claim Atsushi was a predator, especially towards young girls... uhhuh, look idk if you've seen this man before but if he would go after anyone it'd be your grandparents.
We have some hypocrite clowns who will indirectly call your work or art trash or will otherwise offend you and then yeet a "lol" behind it.
Clowns without a personality who just copy whoever the fuck they last spoke to, different person every week the fucking mysteryboxes of the fandom and sadly they often copy someone from the rest of this list.
People who want to share content but if the content is already online, will bully the other uploader to take it down (have heard too many stories about this, too many people had it happen to them but haven't seen it myself. Yet, Ive heard it more than once so I believe it)
Ableists... yeah people, autism and ADHD really do exist, other mental illnesses can also make people be a bit weird sometimes, some of us are really struggling with it... it's not fake news -_-
Stalkers.
Art thiefs.
Hypocrites (will complain about what someone else did and then do the exact same like it isn't an issue anymore suddenly)
And as much as I want to avoid names... if I have to explain this one we'll be here for a month so uh... if I say "Gekka Reijin" most people will understand what I mean cause holy FUCK get professional help...
Like I am also not a fan of gatekeepers, people who are insanely quickly offended even if you didnt mean to offend them and they won't forgive it no matter what (like bruh I say sorry and didn't even mean it the way you all see it but whatever I guess. Why did this happen several times I am literally trying to be careful about what I say and how I say it. Idk what to do anymore about this), people who will fight you over having a different opinion and people that just suddenly ignore you while you don't even know wtf happened (like wtf just tell me what your problem is cause idk what I did)... but they aren't necessarily bad people, I just don't work with them but they are NOT what I mean when I'm bitching about the fandom... even tho I don't like em. It's the disgusting fuckers that I yell about.
Anyway my DMs are open ONLY to people who do NOT identify with this goddamn list. If you are like any part of the list, please do not speak to me.
Minors can talk to me but not about NSFW topics.
P.S. I'm also not a fan of the VK war fighters. BT is VK or BT isn't VK. Toll said they aren't VK but if someone wants to believe BT is VK then whatever... no need to start a whole war about it. Also other Jrock related social wars like just let people be... like you can yell about it, sure, but omg don't scream at people specifically and call them names just cause you don't agree with em.

🔪🧃🍓
🔪 (weirdest topic you've had to research) i answered this before, but i can answer with another weird thing i had to research! for my "prisoner of war and therapist" ghost/reader drabble, i wanted to make the dialogue sound somewhat realistic, so i had to try to find extracts from therapy sessions with military personnel. not easy to do because obviously those are confidential.
🧃 (personal lore) i don't rly share too much personal stuff here because i don't need everyone knowing all my business, but i guess i can kind of opaquely share that i went to grad school? won't say for what though lol.
🍓 (how'd you start writing fanfiction) i first came across the concept of fanfiction when i was maybe 12-13 because i was trying to find news about the new artemis fowl book and when it was going to be published, and i accidentally stumbled across someone's fanfiction and thought it was the real thing. like i thought i'd found a leaked copy of the new book online. and it was so fucking bad. i was devastated until i figured out what the site actually was lmao.

Ask game!! 🛼🥤🔪📚
(also a curated selection, answer what you’d like :P)
🛼 ⇢ describe your latest wip with five emojis
i have multiple but here’s one, ☺️🗡️💵🎭😳
if i get this one again i’ll do a different wip, i have 3 rn
🥤 ⇢ recommend an author or fanfic you love
a fic that i recently read that i very much loved was “Even Ice Walls Fall Down” by WatcherAurora. it’s a ranchers hero au (complete with 12 chapters + bonus content) and it’s so good. tango’s characterisation is mwah i love it
another fic that i always have to mention as one of my favourites—honestly, the one that got me to want to write fic to begin with, is “The Horse Thief” by Julius_XX. it’s a scarian hitman/thief au, very slow burn, currently at 18 chapters and still updating. it’s amazing, genuinely. warning for graphic violence but it’s simply amazing
as for an author, gladumf updates all of their fics very often & writes really good stuff. & i’ll always recommend my co-author who was coincidentally the one to send in this ask, nine_of_diamonds (has underscores on ao3 but not tumblr can’t believe the inconsistency! lol)
🔪 ⇢ what's the weirdest topic you researched for a writing project?
“can i make a fish cry” was a banger google search of mine in an attempt to ask if fish have the capacity to cry. i’m sure everyone can guess which fic that’s for
i’m sure there was weirder searches but that’s the first to come to mind
📚 ⇢ what's the last thing you wrote down in your notes app?
these questions so i can copy them over to a post but as for the last thing in my writing folder, apparently it was “does sushi grow in water. does it. tell me.” so whatever the fuck i was doing at midnight writing that down i could not tell you. there is literally nothing else in that note. i do not know what this means

why did Stephanie M did that weird age thing at the end of the Host?
Excellent question anon!! Let’s get into it!
So for context, The Host (2008) is a book based on an invasive species of aliens that need host bodies to operate on alien planets. The 2 main characters of the book are one of the invading aliens, a “soul” and her human host body that is still alive and well even when the alien is operating her body. The grand finale of the book has the alien give back the human body so her host can go back to living her life. BUT! the humans involved in the story have grown attached to this specific alien and find her a new body. Not a big deal except SM wrote it the weirdest way possible. The running theory in the book is that the longer a human was human before an alien took over the more likely they are to remember their own lives. so while our favorite humans from the story go looking for a new body they choose one that is noticeably young so that the alien doesn’t have to worry about the human host being alive inside the body. BUT! the alien has paired up with one of the adult males in the story and so when she wakes up in the new body she lies about its age so that her partner won’t object to hanky panky and make her wait until her body is old enough.
There’s a lot there. It is Stephanie Meyers writing so it’s filled with her usual sexism and weirdness that makes a lot of people question her sanity. I am a white person so i don’t know how to go about commenting on her racism. i will say she didn’t dig herself into the same hole she did with Twilight (2005) but the invading alien 100% have a savior complex about taking over planets, they said something of the lines of “We come to experience and make it better.” or something to that effect that i wish i had my copy of the book in front of me to check. But they fit the definition of colonizers so take that as you will.
Stephanie has a history of using similar tropes and just weird things that she insists on including in her writing. What anon has come to me about is the weird age thing and let’s dive into that. There already has been a lot of commentary about the age gap with Bella and Edward from Twilight but i bring it up because it’s a trope SM writes often. The only book i can think of that doesn’t have a weird age gap is her spy/espionage book The Chemist (2016) but i haven’t read a couple titles that popped up in my deep dive for this ask.
The biggest clues about why the hell SM writes some of this stuff is that she is mormon and her religious views definitely get added in writing in different ways. Mormons believe that a “delayed marriage” is a sign of delayed maturity so that’s the biggest thing i can think of when it comes to why SM writes this ideology into her books.
Returning to The Hosts age gap and Twilights age gap the circumstances are shockingly similar, one of the pair has been alive for multiple life times before they meet the other and they are suddenly complete. They felt so isolated and distant from their own kinds until they found their true mate. It’s crazy to me! The only difference the pairs is that in Twilight, Edward is an eternally mature 17 y/o and in The Host, Wanda is an eternally immature thousand of years old, in the book she estimates that she was born around earths big bang? or that her mother? was but she constantly moves from planet to planet and has to start the maturing process all over again with each species. She even states towards the end of the book that she was “barely a year old” because her time on earth had been that short and then!! she’s put into an even younger body!! The aliens defense within herself is that she doesn’t want to wait like her previous human host had because her human host was 17 (i think) when she found her mate and he made her wait for her 18th birthday before her would have sex with her. So she lies and says the new human host’s body’s birthday is in a week! which is just so silly to me! it brings in the question of if the aliens celebrate their host’s birthdays? which i genuinely don’t see that they would??
I do know that SM stated that The Host was based off a story she started telling herself while driving through arizona? one of the more desert states and so she probably started writing it and had to come up with some kind of happy ending? similar to twilight which was based off a dream and she wrote the meadow scene first and had to build a backstory around that and then find some way to give all of those characters a happy ending which is how we ended up with genuinely the most disturbing age gap in any of her writing to date.
Long answer short! i’m not sure! but i mostly blame mormonism and poor plotting!
Thank you anon for sending in this ask so i could talk about my favorite book ever and the absolute disaster that it is!

weird questions for writers: 2, 10, 16?
2. If you had to give up your keyboard and write your stories exclusively by hand, could you do it? If you already write everything by hand, a) are you a wizard and b) pen or pencil?
I could but I would get carpal tunnel. I write a significant amount of it all in pencil in a notebook first, make as many changes and edits as I want, and then eventually move it to a word doc and start copying it all to digital.
10. Has a piece of writing ever “haunted” you? Has your own writing haunted you? What does that mean to you?
You know, I was thinking about this the other day. The few things i have read that stuck with me in a horrible, nearly traumatizing way, were all for school. And I hated that. One was from middle school and still nauseates me to think about, and another was in senior year in high school and makes me sad. I don't like the idea of forcing anyone (especially kids) to read things that are deeply disturbing. I don't think it helps them in any way. I don't really care if its considered "good literature". Those books made me, (a very happy, straight A student who adored reading), want to not do my homework. Made me not want to go to school. Made me think the world was a bad place and being happy while those bad things might be happening to other people made me a bad person.
I think that's the bad side of being "haunted" by a piece of writing. But I also think you can be haunted in a good way! I love when I read a story and all the best parts stick with me! When I feel warm and invigorated and MOTIVATED to do good things or write my own stories or create new art, that's the best haunting possible. When the ghost of the story stays with you and helps you be your best self.
I don't know if I have been haunted by my own work yet, but I do think highly of it and use it to motivate me to write more. Teru's anxiety attack in the second chapter of Break might be the closest I have gotten to feeling like something I wrote was perfect, and that feeling follows me in a good way.
16. What’s the weirdest thing you’ve ever used as a bookmark?
Probably my husband? I think I've taken his hand and stuck it in my book and walked away. Probably told him not to move. We do stuff like that in our house.

As someone who's played the sims for decades now but wasn't aware there was any type of discourse within the fanbase ...wtf? What can you even be toxic about in a sim game? Be noisy PLEASE i wanna know
OH MY GOD SO MUCH STUFF
the constant doxxing
the constant moaning about how sims 2 was just so much better than sims 4, and attacking anyone who says otherwise
people literally STEALING content from people who made content and stuff for other games by converting them to the sims 4 without their permission and a lot of times against their wishes
going off of that, the usage of paywalls against EA's terms of use. people would literally make, like, a hair, and then put that hair behind a paywall. forever. pay for that hair. and it was usually extremely ugly and, yes, made out of mashed up meshes that EA made, behind a paywall.
in addition to the paywalls, the overuse of patreon, putting custom content behind a patreon paywall
in addition to that, the overuse of ad.fly, putting custom content behind ad.fly links, which would literally give people VIRUSES on their computers
eventually, someone started a page where they took content behind paywalls and put it up for anyone to download for free. yeah that didn't last long LMAO the dmca takedowns came almost immediately! hilarious how those creators steal from others, but when someone does it to them they cry copyright and theft!
people stealing photos to copy and paste onto their custom content
that time black simmers called out both EA and white simmers for only making eurocentric items/hairs/skincolors, and people said they "shouldn't bother EA" and "have no right to make demands"
that time when in response to that above happening, some white simmers took a big deep look into themselves and started making custom content for black sims, only for one simmer to throw a fit and say that white people making content with/for black sims is fetishizing and colonialist
the existence of a literal burn book blog on livejournal (simsecret - take a look on there, it's the weirdest reading experience ever)
the existence of several anonymous sites for people to come on and literally just insult other people (i wish i could remember the urls)
SO MUCH TRANSPHOBIA
when EA introduced their first nonbinary sim (darling walsh, i think?) people would give them makeovers, making them either male or female
when the big pronoun update came, there was just so much backlash. so many people were mad about they/them pronouns being the default. so. many.
there's like this EA Game Changer thing were you get new expansion packs and stuff a couple of days earlier to like review and generate buzz about it, and that was a huuuuuge thing for people to be mad about, both about the existance of that program, content creators "selling out", or because they didn't get in lmao
the extreme hated between maxis match and "realistic" custom content
yeah that's all I can think of atm! good riddance sims fandom

fic writer ask game
i am very late on this but i was tagged by @mmmichyyy and @iansw0rld !
🖤 rules: answer the questions then tag five fic writers ✍️
1. how did you get into writing fanfiction?
i was super into marvel movies in my teens and i read way too much clintasha and stevebucky fic on tumblr/ao3 until one day i finally cracked and decided to try writing my own. i wrote fic for a few years when i was a teenager, then went to college and fell out of fandom life because real life was super hectic and getting a degree in mechanical engineering is hard, and then when i was maybe 22? 23? i started writing fic again because i realized how much i missed fandom and community and writing in general. i orphaned all my old fic on ao3 when i came back, but i kinda wished i had at least written the titles down somewhere because i’d love to go back and see how much my writing style has grown since then. 
2. how many fandoms have you written in?
10, according to ao3. add in a couple more from my youth, and sprinkle in a handful of unfinished things in my docs from fandoms i had a passing interest in and never actually published anything for, and the real answer is probably more like 15.
Tumblr media
3. how many years have you been writing fanfiction?
a decade, give or take
4. do you read or write more fanfiction?
honestly depends on the day. i get in moods where i just want to write and i don’t want to read anything, and then it flips eventually and all i want to do is consume fics
5. what is one way you've improved as a writer?
i think my dialogue has improved so much since i started. it’s definitely one of my strengths right now, but it wasn’t always. 
6. what's the weirdest topic you researched for a writing project?
honestly i don’t know, my writing is very mundane. royal hierarchies maybe? and that’s not even weird. i just know i had to read a lot of shit about that for a wip i’ve since semi-abandoned.
7. what's your favourite type of comment to receive on your work?
any comment at all is my favorite comment, but if i have to get specific: when people copy/paste their favorite��lines into a comment and tell me they liked them, yeah that shit hits 
8. what's the most fringe trope/topic you write about?
again, i write very boring stuff. i think the most fringe thing i write is crossovers to be totally honest. i love a well done crossover fic between multiple fandoms. i’m still very proud of my tww/newsroom crossover, and my tww/stranger things crossover is near and dear to my heart. right now i’ve been brainstorming a shameless/stranger things/911 crossover with @karenandthababes for the last like, six months. will i ever write it? who knows.
9. what is the hardest type of story for you to write?
smut.
10. what is the easiest type?
fluff or domestic fluff. give me the softness. give me them happy and enjoying life. i can crank out 5k of that in no time.
11. where do you do your writing? what platform? when?
in bed on my laptop, Word, and mostly at night, but sometimes during my lunch breaks
12. what is something you've been too nervous/intimidated to write, but would love to write one day?
the rock star mickey au that lives in my brain rent free is probably top of my list, followed by the high school au that also lives in my brain rent free. both are ambitious projects, and i’ve been talking about them for months without actually writing anything down yet.
13. what made you choose your username?
i will refer you back to question one where i said i was very into marvel movies and stevebucky in my teens. i adore sebastian stan, always have always will, hence sam-loves-seb. yes i made this handle at 15, no i will not change it.
tagging: @jessbakescakes @mybrainismelted @gallawitchxx @suchagallabitch @thefinestmuffinswrites and anyone else who wants to play !

☉ what do you do when you get stuck writing?
I cannot for the life of me find the symbols so this one because this happens to me a lot and I need advice :) -sel
Ha yeah I had to copy and paste the symbols myself, lol!
What to do when you get stuck writing. A couple things have been helpful for me. The first thing is to re-read everything and make sure it's fresh. Don't let yourself get frustrated, just recognize very analytically, that something is wrong and it can be fixed. Take some time away from the doc, but keep thinking about it. Think about making fanfiction of it, what other things could happen? You don't have to commit to any of those things. Like, sometimes I'll pick the weirdest things and imagine it to the end (weird meaning like everyone develops tentacles or something). This is just a good way to loosen up and let new ideas come to you. Because half the time it's because I'm writing myself into a corner. This advice is very anecdotal for me because I've only ever had to solve this for myself, so take that with a grain of salt!
take time away from the doc until it's not so fresh and the lines are blurry and you don't remember 100% of what you wrote, and then get out a notebook and a pen and write one version of the ending, or even just the next scene. Sometimes that will shake things loose. I did this with Just One Touch when the last two chapters were not cooperating and ended up changing quite a lot (this is another reason why i like to write the majority of the fic before I post it, in case it changes drastically and I need to add more things to the beginning to support the end).
If it's a particularly bad problem (such was the JOT last two chapters) start a new fic that will be short and let your creative juices work on that while your hind brain continues to think about the original fic. Take long walks listening to music. Take a long drive if you can. A long, luxurious shower. Those places tend to be where my mind wanders and ideas come to me, including how to fix things.
If needed, it's okay to show to a friend and say something like "the vibes are off, something's wrong but I can't pinpoint what, can you help?" and have them read it. Don't let them or yourself get stuck in small details like words or spelling, this is big picture stuff. There's time to fix little things later.
And then, for more general writer's block where nothing comes to me--take a BIG step backwards, hang out with friends or family, go to a museum, watch a new series or show, and let your mind wander. The good news is that it will always come back. This kind of block usually comes to me in the months with less light or right after i publish a big fic I'd spend months working on, almost like a withdrawl symptom. But, it will come back.
Like I said, this is very *me* advice and probably won't work for everyone, but start making notes about how/when you work the best/worst so you can kind of predict things. For me, if it's a winter month and I just posted something huge, i don't panic if the words aren't coming. It's a known thing, so no sense in worrying about it, it'll come back.
Hope this helps! Thanks for asking, Sel <3
