I'm late but here's my 3 big wips:

Fractured Stars Falling: dark queer fairytale retellings

characters including- gladiator cinderella and peacemaker prince, people pleaser snow white and her protective best friend/QPR partner, former mermaid pirate captain and hopeless romantic pirate woman, genre aware lord's son and the sauve flirty froggy prince, shy blonde bookworm boi and the lost princess with fire powers, the overprotective bodyguard and his danger magnet princess, and the chaotic burntout gifted kid wizardess.

They're a family and they have to deal with a vengeful witch corrupted by dark magic and a very pissed off death god.

The City is Ours: a bunch of chaotic teenage superheroes that become siblings and a team and do the most chaotic shit ever. so many redemption and villain arcs and sibling relationships.

characters including: team leader with ice powers who puts way too much pressure on herself, the dad friend who is also very gay, the token straight white girl who is super supportive and she'll hit you with her heel if you hurt her friends, a quiet art kid that's secretly chaotic with speed and invisiblilty powers, the team healer who is very tired and will lecture his friends when they do dumb shit that gets them injured, the shapeshifter and chaos instigator who also falls in love (accidentally) with a villain, the token team jerk that no one likes with fire powers and a superiority complex, and the tired team hacker and gadget builder who can and will mix coffee and soda and not feel any of it.

Galaxy Destroyer (previously Before the Stars Burn Out): a bunch of morally gray space criminals are thrown together for a job, accidentally adopt a baby, and become a family of fugitives.

characters including: 1000% done cyborg bounty hunter, the middle aged very tired uncle and self proclaimed leader that no one listens to, the rejected android turned smuggler with a resting bitch face, the sauve theif who is an asshole with a heart of gold, the crazy mad scientist who is a biology nerd, the quiet pilot who is the only one allowed to hold the group braincell (but xey are dangerously close to losing it), the conman who seems like he can't fight but turns out he's a badass with a sword, and the baby with superpowers that they accidentally adopt.

That... ended up having a runon sentence each with a rundown of the characters but oh well.

Thanks for giving me a chance to ramble @jacquesfindswritingandadvice !

Anna Williams did not run through miles of forest nor face off with an infected with literally only a switchblade and sheer desperation all while fucking IN LABOR, then cut her daughter's umbilical cord with her own hands, clean her up, name her, love her, and hold her for hours even as she knew and felt that she was dying, prepared to stab herself with that same switchblade to save her baby, then beg her lifelong friend to take her girl somewhere safe where she could grow up happy and protected only for Marlene to fuckin sacrifice that girl, that baby she swore to her dying friend to take care of, for a shoddy at best chance to save an already irrevocably shattered world. Both the Williams ladies deserved better than that.

Y’all have no idea how important this is to me.

Rogue is a character who constantly has to hold on. She’s had to hold on to her control and hold herself back for pretty much her entire life. She can’t touch another person, which means she constantly has to hold back, to keep herself in check, to grasp tight to anything that makes her even a little bit “human” less she be deemed nothing but a monster. This episode is all about Rogue letting go. Letting go of her control, letting go of her morals, letting go — or failing to let go — of Remy… she finally cuts loose, and we see how powerful she is. We see how cut-throat she can be. We see how much she feels, how much she fears, how much she grieves. But this… this moment? When she finally feels the grief through the rage? We see her drop her final defenses, and when she lets go she falls. She completely falls into this embrace and she presses into it. Rogue has spent her entire life holding back from touch, so to sink so fully into a hug like this shows just how far gone she is. This isn’t a quick hug where she’s making sure to keep a layer of clothing between skin contact. This is a full-body embrace with no care for anything but contact and comfort, two things that have been denied Rogue for so long.

This episode tore Rogue down to the deepest parts of herself and forced her to let go, and when she did Kurt and the other X-Men were there to catch her.

also it just makes me really happy to actually see Kurt and Rogue’s relationship acknowledged on screen, they are one of my favorite pairs of siblings in media and seeing them like this is extremely important to me.

Look, Ian, Mickey, and Mandy go to a Sox game when she visits and the kiss cam shows Mandy and Ian and then?

anna hi! omg i love this heehee!

cue the battle of three completely different facial expressions!

ian: wide toothy smile, crinkly eyes, rosy cheeked! completely tickled by the concept of being on camera with his best friend! a silly guy! my god, what a memory for them, something to laugh at for years to come. "remember when we were on the kiss cam? how fun was that?!"

mandy: the most mischievous smirk you could ever imagine! the side eye of the century. oh ho boy, that girl is gloating. everyone around her is surprised she hasn't broken out into an evil laugh yet. that's all that's missing as her hand comes up to rest on ian's shoulder. time to mess with her shithead of a brother! time to shine!

mickey: if "OH. FUCK. NO." had a face, it would be this one. eyebrows absolutely fighting for their life. they shoot straight up, they come crashing down. gasps echo all around them as The Scowl comes out. pure and utter disgust on his face. a pause. hands flailing accompanied by an "AAAYYY!!!"

the jumbotron shows a girl, a goofy guy, and an arm. shooting out from the right and yanking the guy sideways. the cameraperson gets with it, pans to where the arm has claimed their guy. and there. fully engrossed in the hottest kiss that ballpark has ever seen, are ian and mickey. holding faces, backwards caps, smiling and proud.

yall don’t give What’s Your Number enough credit for being one of the funniest romcoms and I’m tired of it

[gimpyhair]

*Slams fist on the table*

I want rogue and gambit to have a Big Damn Kiss™ with 360 degrees shot, explosions in the background, perfect animation and killer 90's music that is perfectly sync with lips movements

(⁠╯⁠°⁠□⁠°⁠）⁠╯⁠︵⁠ ⁠┻⁠━⁠┻

It has to be so emotionally charged that people's hearts will melt and so mindblowing that it will obliviate that dance scene from existence

Meet Amala, Zahra's spunky little sister!

(If you’ve been following this AU since last year, you’ll know “Amala” was originally going to be Zahra’s name while the little sister was going to be named “Ayah”. I kinda got attached to the “Amala” name so I decided to give it to the little sister instead haha)

Cheerful and hopeful, Amala has always looked up to her big sister, Zahra. If you ask her, she's the biggest fan of Zahra's little fairytales (yes, higher than Noor themselves!). It was Zahra's stories, which are always full of "childish" hope and love, that helped Amala keep her childlike wonder and positivity despite the circumstances of their family's life. These stories however, influenced Amala to be too much of hopeless romantic who would sometimes annoy Zahra about her love life (and if the current story Zahra is telling has a cliffhanger, she’ll annoy her about the next part of the story).

I like to think a scenario like this would happen between them lmao:

Zahra is very protective of Amala, so she works tirelessly so Amala can have a peaceful and wonderful life where her dreams and wishes can come true. Amala feels the same about her sister, so she tries her best to behave and care of the house whenever Zahra is away doing her work. (Basically a Nani and Lilo dynamic/scenario).

While orphans from a young age, the sisters do have an older guardian who cares for them, their energetic and wise maternal grandpa Sidi Dabir. However, their sidi is growing old and senile, so sometimes even he needed to be taken care of sometimes. (Ill draw his design next and share more info about him soon).

When Noor came along, they and Amala got along really well! As a star spirit full of magic, Noor would sometimes show off their magic and play with Amala, who gets really excited about the fact that there’s a real magical star person right in front of her (and maybe her future brother-in-law, who knows).

Imagining scenarios about her interactions with Zahra and Noor is so fun lol, I can’t wait to show more of her hehe.

[gay-panic-at-the-disco]

thinking about how Kim Dokja and Anna Croft are nearly perfect narrative foils. The Prophet and the Reader, she who sees the events to come and he who knows of all that has happened, Humanity's Hero and the Demon King of Salvation, the Opponent of all the Stars and the Most Ancient Dream.

For as long as Yoo Jonghyuk had been a regressor, Anna Croft was the only person who had been by his side through everything because she was the only one who could remember. Although Kim Dokja would never admit it, she was to Yoo Jonghyuk what Kim Dokja wished to become, to take the place of and steer him towards a better path, one that Anna could never prophecise.

Anna found reprieve in forgetting Yoo Jonghyuk but it was Kim Dokja's worst nightmare.

Anna Croft would sacrifice anything and anyone she has ever loved if it meant that she could save the world because she's a gambler and she knows how to calculate the risks. She sees value in numbers and abundance.

Kim Dokja still saved the world, but if it came down to it, he would sacrifice the world to save his loved ones because, to him, they are his world.

also sorry kdj but yjh and anna were the og toxic doomed yuri

The “Girl Failure” archetype needs to be studied

[crystallizsch]

Random Thought, please humor me.

SURPRISE: YUUSHA GAINS MAGIC (By absorbing the Magic around her & dealing with Overblots)! Even better, she doesn't need a Mage Stone to control it! What would Yuusha's Unique Magic be & how does she use it? How would Jamil react?

"Magic makes people feel too powerful. Too entitled."

"That is not what magic does. That's just your fear. Fear is what can't be trusted."

HELPPP anon your random thought sent me down into a rabbit hole and i was hyperfixated on this for at least a WEEK 😭

THANK YOU FOR THE ASK BTW I REALLY APPRECIATE IT I HAD SO MUCH FUN WITH THIS 💕💕💕

anyways i also had an agonizing realization that yuusha is somewhat twisted elsa/anna because she has:

braid in front ✅

light-colored hair streak ✅

love interest that used her for his schemes ✅

desire to connect with people bc of years of loneliness (and emotional instability) ✅

unresolved childhood trauma in general ✅

(and probably more idk, these are the ones that stand out to me at the moment)

i haven't thought about frozen for YEARS and somehow it's still haunting me.

i have a lot of mixed feelings about this realization in general but the reason i brought this up is because i ended up basing yuusha's unique magic on frozen (not the ice powers part, but more the emotions aspect since elsa's powers work based on her emotions) while also still having aspects of yuu's own personality on it.

(also I'm sorry in advance i keep on dropping random lore about yuu and jamil's dynamic that only makes sense to myself hndsfhdsj)

I'm your friend. You don't have to hide. SHOW YOURSELF.

"Show Yourself" forces the target to say what's actually on their mind as long as she touches them. Since she's not particularly powerful and skilled with her own unique magic in the beginning, it's limited to skin-to-skin contact, and it only lasts for as long as she's touching her target.

If Yuu trained it more, it doesn't have to be skin-to-skin, just as long as she makes some kind of physical contact with her target; and it could last for as long as she wants even if she is no longer making physical contact. (But the longer she keeps it up, the more blot accumulates.) Yuusha would mostly just use her unique magic to mess with people. It'll only be rare that she chooses to use it for something serious.

To add more onto how Jamil would react to these magic shenanigans: They've both agreed on not using their unique magic on each other. To do so would be a breach of trust. (Of course there would be special exceptions but generally that's their agreement.) And since Jamil is still a scheming prick (affectionate), her "Show Yourself" unique magic would be useful. Plus, Yuu would not be against using her unique magic 99% of the time since she is also aware of the usefulness of her ability. Jamil would insist on helping Yuu out on how to use her magic because there was no way she'd get the hang of it immediately. And he knows she would refuse to ask any other (capable) magician for help.

An alternate idea that I scrapped was "Let It Go" where it's essentially Yuu telling her target to let go of their (usually negative) emotions. But those feelings can't just disappear so Yuu basically absorbs them so now it's her burden to carry instead. I scrapped it because I can't settle on how it works. (But it still had angst potential so I couldn't help but draw a bit about it anyway.)

(extra rambling below about yuusha overblot thoughts if anyone's interested hdlfhjgj)

this is a brief tangent from the original question because i also thought, "hey what if she overblotted, wouldn't that be fun"

i could see the overblot going in either two ways:

yuu accidentally hurts grim (or another friend) with her magic. she’s so distraught thinking that even with magic she can't protect those who are dear to her. and so during the overblot she will not actively try to hurt anyone but instead exhausting her magic reserves in an intentional attempt at self-destruction. (yes i also see the frozen parallels shhhh)

OR

something happens that was simply THE LAST STRAW. now she’s too pissed at everyone that she no longer cares about what happens to her or anyone else, going on a destructive rampage. which can also be considered an intentional attempt at self-destruction.

either way, basically, if she can’t go home she’s just going to take herself out and/or the school instead. the girl is not okay.

(there's actually nothing good she can home to, but she's convinced she'll be happy again if she returns. but she doesn't know that because she can't remember shit about her home. that's a separate lore dump post hgdsjfkld)

also the blot monster behind her would look something like marshmallow (elsa's snow monster from frozen) :)

(i also used to have a similar idea for yuusha. i planned to have her be immune to magic *because* she was absorbing it and she didn't realize. leading to an inevitable overblot) (but i scrapped it because yuusha became my victim for jamil x yuu stuff) (like if i can't have the excuse to have jamil use snake whisper on yuu then what is the point)

[dungbeatposse]

hey guys

whatever you do, DON’T think about how norah’s character designs include her wearing buskins and having a lyre with several masks and leaves on it, which can be attributed to the melpomene, the muse of tragedy

DON’T think about it :’)
