Our finales have typically ended with the evil defeated, or at least pushed away, allowing our characters to catch their collective breath and return to their normal lives. But because this is the penultimate season, we wanted an Empire Strikes Back style ending — meaning, it ends on a down note, with our characters experiencing real defeat for the first time. The bad guy wins. Friends (heroes) die, or are badly wounded. We felt this led to some incredibly devastating performances from our cast, as they come face to face with death and loss, a feeling which will cast a dark cloud over the final season. Like a lot of people, high school was a very challenging time for us — you’re facing the pressure of figuring out your future at the same time you are trying to fit in, or even just trying to understand who you are. It’s a lot to take on at that age and it can leave you feeling hopeless, like there’s no end to the uncertainty in sight. This emotional truth was at the center of Vecna. In many ways a physical representation of anxiety and depression, he is an evil force that leeches on youth’s frailty. The devil on your shoulder, the dark whisper in your ear. We hope that the show ultimately gives hope to kids that, with the help of loved ones, you can overcome anything. You can run your way up that hill, out of darkness and into the light. During filming, the script mostly went unchanged, although on set, and in the edit, everyone worked hard to make each character moment as impactful as possible. Some of this came from actor improvisation. For instance, in Eddie’s death scene, the simple exchange where Eddie and Dustin tell one another they love each other was improvised by Gaten [Matarazzo] and Joe [Quinn] during filming. Lucas screaming for Erica to help as Max dies in his arms was similarly an idea that came from Caleb [McLaughlin]. Our editor Dean Zimmerman heightened the moment of Eddie’s decision to fight back by slowing down the footage and adding flashbacks. Our music editor, Lena Glikson, cut a remix of “Running Up That Hill” into the final battle in a way that just took our breath away. It was just many, many moments like these from our cast, crew and post-production team which, hopefully, brought further emotion and humanity to the words on the page.

You’re nursing a glass of half-sipped champagne, trying your best to pay attention to what your friend is saying to you through the pounding music. Being social with them is the least you can do, considering this is their holiday party you’re attending. And they’ve supplied the alcohol that you’ve helped yourself to all night. This is one reason why you can’t focus very well, but there’s another reason, too. You swear you feel eyes from somewhere in the apartment searing into the back of your head. At first, it wasn’t a big deal. But now it’s almost as if you’re scared to move in case someone is watching. Still listening to your friend, you realize you’re unable to look around to find the source. So you push away the sensation the best you can for now. A mutual friend waves at you from across the room where the makeshift bar is. Downing the rest of your champagne, you bid the friend you’re conversing with a quick goodbye for the time being. Hurrying to your friend who beckoned you over, you look at them with a raised brow when their face scrunches up into a giddy smile.

“Why do you look like that?” you ask, carefully eyeballing them.

Your friend chuckles at you, leaning into your ear, “There’s a hot guy back there who has been eyeing you for quite some time.”

Your face contorts into realization. So that’s why you’ve been feeling eyes burning into you. You hesitantly turn around, hoping you aren’t too blatantly obvious in finding who is staring. However, at this point in the night, you aren’t entirely graceful by any means. Your eyes catch onto a brunette man almost immediately, like you’re drawn to one another somehow. The man glances down at his drink before letting his eyes shoot back up to yours, his determined gaze sending goosebumps across your skin. Your friend has been too busy making you a drink to notice the tension but still manages to switch out your empty glass with a full one despite your daze.

“I’ll be right back,” you say just loud enough for your friend to hear over the song blaring through the speakers.

With the alcohol burning in your system, the atmosphere of the apartment seems otherworldly. It’s a fairly glitzy party, so you’re dressed for the occasion. Your outfit highlights your best features, allowing you to have an air of confidence. A kind of confidence you don’t usually carry. The alcohol certainly helps with that. The shimmery lighting bouncing off the walls gives off an ethereal vibe to the apartment. The dim glimmer of the room casts the shadow of the brunette man’s eyelashes onto his cheekbones. The closer you get, the more you notice about him. His aquiline nose, the contour of facial hair on his face, the tasteful and subtle golden hoop in his left ear. You see a small smile stretch across his lips as you approach him.

“I am so sorry if I’m coming off as creepy,” he shouts over the music, laughing to himself, “I promise I don’t mean to. You’re just really attractive.”

You take a moment to let your eyes take in his form as discreetly as possible, noticing his towering height and lean physique. Now that you’re close enough to properly see his face, you note that his eyes shine a hauntingly beautiful shade of icy blue. He takes a moment to study your face as well, waiting with bated breath for your response.

“That means a lot coming from someone who is also attractive. And I thought I felt someone staring,” you jokingly smile at him around a sip of your drink.

“Sorry about that,” the man rubs the back of his neck nervously, “I just never know how to approach without being awkward.”

Butterflies flutter in your stomach at the heavy weight of the brunette’s eyes on yours, your drink burning away any nervousness that had previously lingered.

“I get it,” you match his smile that has yet to wipe off his face, “I’m not the type to come up to someone I find cute. But…” you trail off, taking in the man’s attractiveness, “There’s something about you I can’t put my finger on.”

“Well,” he chuckles at you, bringing his glass to his lips before hesitating, “You’ll figure it out eventually.”

“Oh really?’ you raise your eyebrows, a playful tinge to your voice, “How’s that?”

“Do you smoke?” the man asks.

“Only when I’m drinking,” you chide. 

The two of you weave around the other party-goers toward the fire escape, and you snatch the bottle of something from your friend’s hand while passing the bar on the way out. After clambering from the window behind the tall man, who effortlessly climbed out, you take his outstretched hand. Planting your feet on the landing, you watch as the man fishes out a pack of cigarettes and a pack of matches from his back pocket. He looks up at you expectantly, patting the spot on the metal grating next to him.

“I don’t bite,” he jokes, “Not hard, anyway.”

You bite back a snort but sit down anyway. You take a swig of the clear liquid in the bottle you took before offering it to the man with a sour face. He’s in the process of lighting up, the cigarette hanging between his lips casually as he holds a lit match to the end. You watch him do this, and something stirs inside you. He takes a drag before handing the cigarette to you and taking the bottle from your hand. 

“You smoke a lot?” you ask him before taking a drag of your own, your eyes not leaving him.

He shrugs, “I picked it up while in college. It’s a bad habit I go back to sometimes.”

“I see,” you say, “I forgot to ask, but what’s your name?”

“Tom,” the brunette says, the cigarette dangling from his lips as he offers a free hand for you to shake. You gently take it.

Despite the chill of the night, Tom’s hand is warm against yours. You both hesitate to pull away, but a shy chuckle shared between the two of you causes a natural break of grip. You continue to smoke and pass the bottle to and from each other, talking about this year’s notable events in your lives. You speak for a while before more personal details begin spilling. Like how much you hate your job and how Tom missed his co-stars from his last project. Or how you both hate being single during the holidays. The more alcohol that’s consumed, the more you discuss your lives. It’s only been an hour or two, but it feels like you’ve known each other forever. 

A comfortable silence falls over the two of you. Tom looks over at you, admiring how your cigarette looked so natural in your hand. And how your hair fell perfectly around your face and how you swung your legs back and forth innocently. The corners of Tom’s lips twitch upward as he subtly moves closer to you, his thigh pressing against yours. He thinks you’re quite interesting and pretty- he doesn’t know why you’re still single when you’re such an amazing person.

You feel the roughness of his trousers against your bare thigh as you finish your final cigarette. You swish the remaining contents of the bottle around, deciding that your blurry peripheral vision means it is time to stop drinking. When you turn to offer Tom the rest of the alcohol, he’s facing you already, mere inches away. Your breath hitches as his eyes look into yours. They drop to your lips, and despite your intoxication, you feel giddy in your stomach. 

“Can I,” Tom whispers, lifting a hand to your cheek, “Can I kiss you?”

You sit the bottle down on the other side of where you’re sitting, a drunken smile growing on your face, “Of course you can.”

Tom leans in, pressing his lips to yours gently. You inhale sharply through your nose at the intense feeling of electricity between the two of you. You can taste the alcohol on him when you run your tongue across his bottom lip, testing just how far he wants to go. Your hand reaches up and cards through his dark hair, bringing him as close as possible as the kiss becomes more passionate. Tom’s free hand grasps your hip, his thumb digging deeper into your skin the harder you kiss him. Your head swims as he peppers his lips along your jawline and under your ear.

“We should probably go inside,” you pull away reluctantly, but even in your stupor, you don’t want to get carried away and fall off the fire escape.

You struggle to push up the cracked open window, and Tom giggles at you as he effortlessly pushes it open for you. Both of you climb through, and your friend shakes their head at you when your feet land firmly on the floor.

“I had wondered where you ran off to,” they chuckle, “I see you’ve met my friend Tom.”

“Uh, yeah,” you smile, looking up at him as he stands beside you.

Your friend looks closely at the two of you, noticing your bitten lips and Tom’s flushed face, “Now that the party has dwindled down, you guys can chill upstairs where it’s quiet. I have a book collection you two would enjoy.”

“Gotcha,” you nod as they walk away to mingle with other partygoers.

Looking around, you notice the remainder of the gathering is in other parts of the apartment, leaving the living room and upstairs unoccupied. Tom grabs your hand, pulling you away from the kitchen to the hallway leading to the stairs. You pull him into another kiss, Tom giggling at your eagerness as he sways slightly. He walks you backward until you feel your back against the nearby wall. Neither of you would do this on a typical day, but the energy between both of you is so intense. Your hands move underneath his shirt, your cold palms making contact with his warm skin. Tom gasps into the kiss at the contact, and you scoff, pulling away from him and grabbing his hand to drag him up the stairs.

“Careful,” Tom says to you as your legs wobble. Meanwhile, he’s struggling to climb them as well.

After a few minutes of tussling and laughing, the two of you finally reach the second floor.

“So about that book collection,” Tom raises an eyebrow, catching his breath as he grabs you by the hips, bringing you close to him.

“Only if you really want to,” you look up at him, both your and his eyes glazed over.

“I do,” Tom runs his hands along your sides, his gaze heavy on you, “Lead the way.”

You walk ahead of him, pulling him into the guest bedroom, where the books do happen to be stored in a giant bookcase along the wall. String lights around the ceiling give a soft golden glow to the room as you approach the mass of books. Tom closes the door softly as he enters the room, walking up behind you as you trace the spine of one of your favorite books. Tom wraps his arms around you, leaning down to kiss the back of your neck gingerly. You melt into his chest, closing your eyes as he travels down your shoulder. Your dress has an exposed back, and Tom is taking advantage of it as Tom falls to one knee and continues kissing down your body. He delicately unties the silk ribbon holding the two sides of your dress together, pausing before allowing it to fall to the floor.

“Let me know if you want me to stop,” Tom says.

You turn around and walk to the bed, allowing your dress to fall behind you. Sitting down, you motion for Tom to come over to you. His eyes scan your face, avoiding your intricate and deep-colored underwear as he stands up. Tom stands between your slightly parted legs, and you move your hands to the lapels of his black blazer, pushing them open. He discards it from his arms and to the floor before pulling his t-shirt over his head. You try not to ogle at his perfect body, but your hands wander anyway. Up his abdomen and across his chest until you reach his neck, where you pull him down for a heated kiss. Tom lightly pushes you onto the bed, and you move to the pile of pillows to rest your head. He climbs over you, caging you underneath him. Before you can react, Tom pulls your legs up around his waist as he rests his body on yours. His lips hover over yours, his darkened eyes boring into yours much like they did the back of your head earlier in the evening. 

“Don’t stop,” you say, crossing your ankles behind Tom’s back.

Tom attacks your neck with hot kisses and soft bites, your hand grasping the back of his head. As his body relaxes into you, his weight presses you against the bed, and you feel how hard he is. You lift your hips to lightly grind into Tom, and his soft bite into your collarbone turns harsh in reaction. He continues downward, slipping his fingers underneath the straps of your bra and sliding them down your shoulders. You arch your back so Tom has the room to unclasp the band and remove the garment from you. He wastes no time resuming his kisses on your sensitive skin, avoiding the areas you desire his kisses most. You gasp when Tom lets his hand brush against your breast, his thumb circling your nipple softly. A small moan leaves your lips, and Tom glances up at you through his lashes to gauge your reaction. He admires how your eyebrows crease momentarily in pleasure, so he circles his thumb again. You moan louder this time, craving his touch without hesitance.

“Please,” you sigh, “Don’t hold back either.”

Tom hums in response before dipping his head down and enveloping your nipple in his mouth, flicking it with his tongue teasingly. He rubs your other nipple with his thumb, simultaneously stimulating you. You whimper, heat from your still buzzed body rushing to your clit. Your hips roll in response, and you’re sure Tom can feel your dampened panties against his chest. He gives your nipple a sharp tug with his teeth before focusing on your needy core. He leaves an open-mouthed kiss on your clothed heat before removing your underwear. Still buzzed from all the alcohol earlier, Tom tries his best to be soft with you despite the pit of desire growing between you. You want him- all of him, and you want it now. And Tom wants you. Before you can speak, Tom’s warm mouth meets your folds, his tongue lapping at your arousal. You squirm from the sudden stimulation, but he stills your hips with his grip. A hand flies to Tom’s mussed-up hair as he plunges his tongue into you, his nose pressing to your clit. He inhales your scent, and it intoxicates him more than alcohol ever could. Shaking his head, Tom’s nose rubs against your clit perfectly as his tongue fucks you. Your whole body is up in flames, your fingers tightening in his hair. 

You’re muttering incoherent praises as you ride Tom’s face. He replaces his tongue with two of his fingers, your relaxed wetness allowing him to slip them in easily. They scissor against your fluttering walls as Tom sucks on your bundle of nerves. Your fuzzy mind keeps you from hiding how good his mouth feels on you, and your moans grow louder. His mouth leaves your cunt abruptly before reattaching to yours, silencing you immediately.

“Gotta be quiet,” Tom huffs against your lips, “People are still downstairs, love.”

You wrap your legs around him again, grinding yourself into his still-clothed cock. He’s the one to moan this time, slipping his tongue into your mouth and letting you taste yourself. You unwrap your legs and work to unfasten Tom’s trousers, pushing them down his thighs. He kicks them off the rest of the way, along with his underwear, as he continues to kiss you. You reach down between your bodies and palm Tom’s length, to which he groans into your mouth. You guide his tip to your entrance, allowing him to comfortably push into you. Your hands grasp Tom’s shoulder blades, your nails lightly digging into his skin with every inch that enters you. You whimper in pleasure at him finally being inside you after longing for it all night. Tom bottoms out with a content sigh, also elated at the feeling of you clenching around his length after craving it for so long. 

Your chests heave against one another, your forehead pressed to Tom’s. His enticing blue eyes meet yours as he slowly pulls out before slamming his hips against yours. You gasp, arching your back and letting butterflies swarm in your belly when Tom kisses the corner of your mouth. He fucks into you again, slowly building a steady pace. Your lips barely brush against Tom’s as he snaps his body into yours. Your buzz has now faded away, allowing you to feel him entirely sober. He sneaks his hand between you and presses his thumb to your clit, making you hiss at the sudden stimulation. Your head pushes against the pillows, exposing your throat. Tom lets his hand lazily wrap around it, not squeezing but instead holding it as he grazes his teeth on your skin there as he kisses your neck. 

“Feel so good around me,” Tom says dazedly, and you feel his eyelashes flutter under your jaw, “So gorgeous.”

Your hand rests in his hair again, gently combing through his locks as he rocks into you faster. His weight on you, his thumb still rubbing your clit, and his hand around your neck seals the deal for you as he plows into that sweet spot inside you. 

“Tom,” you moan, “I’m close.”

“Me too, baby. Me too,” he whispers into your skin, leaving soft kisses in contrast to his rough thrusts.

“You feel so good,” you mutter, your chin resting on Tom’s head.

Tom lifts your leg and places it on his shoulder, allowing him to hit a new angle inside you. You bury your face in his hair to deafen the cry that escapes you in response. 

“Right there,” you pant, your hands desperately holding onto Tom’s hair as your mouth hangs open in silent pleasure.

Tom breathes heavily into your neck, using all the energy he has left to mercilessly fuck your weeping cunt. You feel your stomach tensing, alerting you of your impending orgasm. Tom chants your name as he firmly presses his thumb into your clit, causing the tightly wound knot inside you to snap undone. Your thigh clamps into the side of Tom’s neck while the other shakes against the bare skin of his sweat sheened back. The feeling of your tight pussy pulsating around him makes Tom explode inside you with a gasp. You grip Tom’s hair desperately as you milk him of everything he has, his thumb still not letting up on your clit. Another orgasm washes over you suddenly. This time it makes you convulse, your cunt gushing around Tom and dripping down your thighs as you cry out in pleasure. 

“Fuck,” you gasp for air, Tom pulling out of you.

He moves down to your pussy, cleaning up the cum spilling from you with a hungry tongue. You’re so sensitive that your thighs slam into the sides of Tom’s head. He suckles your clit for a moment for good measure, making you writhe underneath him. You pathetically whimper when he pulls away, finally catching your breath. Tom returns to his previous position on top of you, his face buried in your neck. He wraps his arms around you, softly stroking your skin. 

“Wow,” you giggle, letting your nose dig into Tom’s brunette hair.

“Yeah,” he smirks, “You’re amazing.”

“That’s all you, I’m afraid,” you say.

Tom hums, “I disagree, sweetheart.”

He rolls over momentarily, lifting the duvet for you to climb under. He embraces you again, holding you close as if you’ll disappear like some sort of dream. You wrap your arms around Tom’s, smiling as he presses his nose to your hair. 

“I still haven’t put my finger on it,” you say after a moment of silence.

“Hmm? On what?”

“That something about you.”

“I guess you’ll have to stick around and find out, then.”

“Deal,” you chuckle, “Merry Christmas, Tom.”

“Merry Christmas, beautiful.”

All in the Personality

Warnings: panic attacks, cursing, slight violence (and implied), mentions of killing, bullying, let me know if I missed any :)

Pairings: James Potter x reader platonic, Sirius Black x reader platonic, Remus Lupin x reader platonic

Requests: hi! i miss her oneshots of the marauders, so... i would like to make a request where the reader is being the victim of mean comments, but not about her appearance but about her personality (since she is more introverted, anxious and awkward compared to the boys) and she just ends up hiding it from them, but one day they find out and it all comes out (I'll leave the way in which this happens open to you). maybe a little angst but with a lot of fluff at the end? <3

Hey, if you don't mind lol I have a request :)) Well, I have a lot of ideas about platonic relationships with the Marauders, and, well, one of them would involve the guys helping a female reader who suffers from social anxiety, and after being put in a situation that ends up giving her an anxiety attack, they try to help the reader with this. Rather angst and fluff I guess lol ps: I really love your platonic oneshots and I'm glad they reached me here from Brazil <3 (sorry if my english is bad, it's not my first language lol)

Requests by: Anons

Summary: You could always count on your best friends, even in the worst situations

A/N: Hi :)

Please don’t plagiarize my work, you may reblog if you like but I’m asking that you don’t steal my hard work

Their jeers reached your ears long before they took a hold of your shoulder and spun you around, sending your books flying in every which direction. You had just hoped that if you ignored their comments, then they would let you get to your class without any further problems.

How wrong you had been.

You looked up with wide eyes at the group of Ravenclaws that sneered down at you, shaking slightly under the grasp of the oldest boy who was yet to let go of your shoulder.

“I was talking to you,” He hissed, eyes narrowing as he looked you up and down in disgust, “And it’s rude to ignore people when they speak.”

A couple weeks ago, this sixth year group of Ravenclaws decided to make it their mission to make your fifth year a living hell.

They would taunt and laugh at you, talking about how they noticed the way that you were so different from your best friends and they would tell you how they were probably trying to ditch you.

You, of course, knew that wasn’t at all true because you were a marauder, same as James, Remus, and Sirius, and they never would have let you be one and they never would have pretended to be friends with you. They weren’t cruel.

Sure, you weren’t as loud or outgoing as they were. In fact, you were anxious and awkward around others, sometimes even having panic attacks, but they didn’t mind- never had- in fact, they would always help you in anyway that they could.

This group of bullies was beginning to wear you down, though. Their comments were relentless and they never once gave you a moment to breathe- unless you were with any of your friends, of course.

You didn’t tell the rest of the marauders about it either, not wanting to worry them or add something else to their already full plates to have to deal with, so you kept this one- not so little- thing to yourself.

The only reason that you weren’t with them right now was because they had woken up late and asked you to go ahead and tell the professor that they were going to be to class soon, which you were more than happy to do for them.

The boy finally let go of you with a small shove on the shoulder, sending you stumbling back a couple of steps into the empty hallway, “Merlin, you’re so pathetic,” He curled his lip.

The five other students behind him began to let out hyena-like laughter, doubling over while holding their stomachs as if he just said the funniest thing in the world.

Their howling was high pitched and never ending, like a ringing in your ears that never went away.

Before you knew it, your hands, then legs, then whole body had begun shaking and the lights got too bright and their laughter too loud and extremely overwhelming.

You fell ungracefully against the nearest wall and sank down to the floor with your knees to your chest as you rocked back and forth.

It was another panic attack.

Their giggles and chuckles only grew louder at your clearly distressed state, and only stopped when an all too familiar voice boomed from down the hallway, “Hey!”

You didn’t even have the strength to look up at James’s clearly furious voice, nor at the thundering sounds of steps making their way over to where you were.

The laughter had ceased and you were finally able to peel your eyes open the slightest bit to see the group of Ravenclaws that had once been standing menacingly over you, now backed into a corner cowering.

Remus, Sirius, and James stood in a protective wall in front of you with glares that could kill and their wands grasped in white knuckled grips.

“Get the fucking hell out of here before I curse you all into next year,” Remus hissed out dangerously.

“But she-“ One of the Ravenclaw girls tried to cry out.

“Get out!” Sirius bellowed, looking like he was about to pounce at any moment.

With that, they all scurried away with pale faces and sweat running down their foreheads, not once slowing their paces, even after they rounded the closest corner and were out of sight.

Immediately, all three boys turned on their heels and rushed over to your still panic stricken form as you took shaky deep breaths in order to try and get air to your lungs.

“N/n, n/n,” Remus called out gently, sinking down next to you and taking your shaking hand in his steady one before placing both against his heart, “Follow my breathing, follow my breathing.” He instructed.

James and Sirius stood guard, glaring down the empty hallway in case anyone was to try and come down it.

After a few moments, your breathing was finally able to go back to normal and your shaking had subsided throughout your entire form.

You gulped in a deep breath, dropping your head against the wall behind you, “T-thank you,” You said after a moment to all three boys, who were watching you with worried expressions.

“Are you alright?” James asked right away, dropping down beside you and rubbing your back, “What did they do?”

“I swear to Merlin, I will kill them-“ Sirius’s furious roar was cut off by Remus’s harsh glare.

“That’s not gonna help right now, Pads.” He told the boy sternly.

“They…” You contemplated for a moment whether or not to tell them the truth, before ultimately deciding that they didn’t deserve to be lied to after what they just did for you, “They’ve been picking on me for a while,” You admitted in a whisper, averting your eyes from all three of them, “And it’s been about how I’m so different from you guys and they noticed, and they talked about how we were only friends because you guys felt bad for me-“

“Wait, hold on, that’s not at all true,” Remus breathed out with wide eyes.

You nodded your head, “I know that, but it just got to be too much today and I guess it kind of triggered a panic attack,” You let out a deep breath, “I don’t know what I would have done if you guys weren’t here.”

James quickly brought you into a side hug, holding onto you tightly as he exchanged looks over your head with the other two, looks that promised revenge on those kids. But for now, their main focus was you.

“I wish you had told us,” Sirius fell down onto the ground in front of you, running a hand through his hair.

“I just didn’t want to worry any of you,” You whispered.

Remus squeezed your shoulder, “We always want you to come to us if something like this happens. We could have helped you take care of it sooner.”

“Now, come on,” Sirius groaned, standing up and stretching, “I don’t know about you lot, but I don’t feel like going to class anymore. Let’s go down to the kitchens instead.”

You giggled, accepting his outstretched hand, “That sounds good,” You told them honestly.

This attack on our city cannot go ignored. The public should not fear humanoid monsters or people creating electricity to destroy and steal from our community stores. It is revolting.

Possessing powers at all makes these individuals inherently dangerous, but we should not ever see them used to their extreme like this. Action must be taken.

[show-us-kaidenshenandoah]

i think im gonna start a series called "Kaiden-Shenandoah's random life tips" bc there's just some odd things i do that make my life easier/more enjoyable. that. like. i dont think make me special?? but most of my loved ones i babble to, when i mention them, will look surprised and be all "damn, that's clever. that's an issue i never thought about, but yeah, i can see how thatd help others/myself. ill have to remember that"

so. this post is all JUST IN CASE it helps someone, even just one person, then the effort will have been entirely worth it. bc sometimes living life is hard and sometimes you just need to hear someone say "oh, what about this possible solution?" to help you out by applying such to your routines or use that suggestion as foundational inspiration for something more customized to your own life or whatever else— just to make living life that little bit easier. and if me sepcifically needing a lot of "oddball" solutions and pre-cautions helps others??? that makes me feel awesome (and less alone), so hell yeah, ill do my best to remember as many tips as i have and be consistent about posting them within this thread. just in case and all that jazz ✌️

(and, even tho this likely DOES NOT need to be said out loud, ill say it anyway as my own proverbial "Bill of Rights" style just-have-it-written-down-in-case-the-worst-happens-in-the-future (but hope for the best) PSA: if these dont apply to you?? or if you think "wtf, people need help with this?? our generation/the next generation is doomed"??? maYHAPS THIS POST ISN'T FOR YOU. this is applicable only to people with lifestyles and/or brains that are similar to me and my loved ones. if you arent of that lifestyle or brain-typage, then thats that lol of course you cant relate. it's an "apples and oranges" thing, y'know. not better/worse or special/normal; just different. it's not something you need, and that's super okay. just don't be rude about the difference. if youd like to be kind and reblog anyway in case any followers or loved ones of yours could be helped by any of this?? that's so fantastic. some of this stuff has some really bad internalized shame about it, or else people have been conditioned to just "keep that to themself; don't talk about it", and either way some of these topics (not all, but still) have people who are hiding their struggle from others as best they can. you don't know what you don't know; and you don't know what people don't tell you. so it's very generous of you, as someone who cant relate to some/all of this stuff, to reblog just in case one of those silent strugglers follow you and/or are a part of your inner-circle. thank you so much for sympathizing with struggles you know your life as is doesn't share and thank you for being kind ♡)

i dont expect this to be helpful to EVERYBODY, and def feel free to just screenshot what is valuable to you and abandon this actual post (just pls dont crop my name out, esp if you end up re-posting your copy to your own blog or on different social-media elsewhere. bc credit is nice lol) bc i assume this will become a long/repetitive post as i update on/off. and most people dont like long posts lmao rip so you dont gotta reblog it if you hate long/repetitive posts or are worried about your followers disliking any long/repetitive post (besides: ill sometimes make one-offs not attached to this post, probably. esp since im forgetful and tumblr is broken/i lose things easily. but ill try to reblog this one for most of them, since thats easier organization for my brain 🫶 lmao)

(but yeah i only have three ideas i wanna do today, but ill come back to this whenever i remember another one ive done thats been helpful to me and/or that i created alongside a loved one that helped them lol)

also pls note that i am dyslexic and do not plan on editing any of this too seriously. so forgive me for mispellings, for forgetting an entire word, and so on. this is me being very casual, so ill inevitably miss some mistakes i make and whatnot

hugs and kisses xoxo best wishes see you later babe

[willel]

Since I'm sure there will be a lot of new people from Twitter, I want to personally say welcome, but also please don't make the shipping wars any worse. Lol

You can do that by tagging correctly, blocking people you don't like, and muting tags that upset you. Tags are like folders. When people tag correctly, it's like opening a book with only the things you like on an endless school. Very handy.

Are you making a post about your favorite ship? Excellent! Tag it correctly. Do not tag a bunch of irrelevant tags as that's considered spamming. Your tags should look like:

#shipname #charactera #characterb #whatever else you want that is actually related to the post

By the way, this isn't twitter. Tags can have spaces in them. You can write a whole ass paragraph almost. It's enouraged to do so!

Also, this isn't TikTok. "Unalive" and other censored words for the "algorithm" are dumb and pointless. There is no algorithm. Use the right words so that people can filter what they don't want to see.

Are you writing a negative post about a ship you don't like? Well that's a waste of time but you do you, just tag it correctly. Your tag should like like:

#anti-ship #dont mention the ship in any other way! It could pop up in their tags when those shippers are trying to do their own thing

Don't cross post KNOWING your post can upset someone. Don't play coy. Don't play dumb. Don't start drama on purpose. If you're bored and want some action, why not get a real hobby instead of fighting on the internet?

If a tag is meant for a platonic ship, then you should find the proper romantic ship version of that name. If another character or pairing has nothing to do with your post, then keep it in your pants and don't tag them. It's rude and could earn you some blocks.

That is the proper tagging etiquette for tumblr.com. You can mute any tag you want by visiting your settings and adding a tag to filtered tags and/or filtered content.

Anon hate is a thing of the past. Grow up. You can send anonymous or faced questions to almost any blog you want. You can also turn off that feature entirely if you don't like it.

If you don't like someone, you can select the three dots on top of their posts and block them. You can save yourself a headache if you learn to curate your experience~

Here in Tumblr, there is no reliable algorithm. More than likely, Tumblr won't be showing everyone posts that are relevant to them automatically. You'll have to visit the tags yourself to see what you want to see.

If YOU LOVE SOMETHING, REBLOG IT. Likes work like bookmarks here on tumblr.com. Everyone appreciates likes on their posts, but sadly, that's all it is. A post can die in the sea of irrelevance if no one reblogs it.

You know all those cool popular posts you see with thousands of notes? They only got like that because thousands of people reblogged it.

Do your artist friends, writer friends, and normal friends a favor by reblogging their posts and spreading the good word~. If you consistently reblog good posts on a consistent basis, you'll likely find yourself some cool followers as well who have the same interests as you.

By the way, while you can be a little well known here in Tumblr, you'll never have any clout. Give up now before you even begin. Everyone is an equal here. We're all just fans being fans of whatever content we're consuming that day alright? There are famous people on here, but unless they're chill and breezy, people will tend to chase them away anyway.

Do you want separate your personal blog from your fan blog? Well no need to make a new account, you can just add a sideblog and it's practically the same thing. You only have to log in once. I have at least a dozen active side blogs for every new interest I get very invested in. Great for organization and keeping your main blog for your personal rambles and posts.

By the way, there's no need to tell everyone your name, your phone number, your address etc. This site is anonymous. Enjoy the anonymity! Let yourself be a faceless fan among other faceless fans, keep your personal details safe and private.

And finally, don't be a creepy weirdo. That's pretty self explanatory. If your are a creepy weirdo, stop while you're ahead. You know you're gonna get caught and ousted. You aren't slick, you're just a weirdo.

That is all. This is meant for the Stranger Things fandom but it can be applied to any fandom. Hope this helps.

[erigold13261]

hiiiii eri!! ✌️ hope youre having a good day/night with your pals and also sorry you gotta deal with weird ass anons, but dont let em get to you when youre just minding your business!

(also also no pressure to reply to this, just wanted to drop by! youre also pretty cool in my book and all the nice tags you leave in all the stuff you reblog are super lovely!!)

Omg, I saw the little T with a ? in my notification (meaning I got an ask) and thought it was either the hater anon or the persona wanting my Failed Revolution to be worse than it is, so seeing it was you was so nice.

And even more nice was what you said. Like, I live by the motto of spreading kindness, which is why I respect people with different headcanons or ideas from me. And also why I always try to say something nice in the tags of stuff I reblog (I should get into the habit of commenting too honestly lol).

Anyway, don't worry about that anon. One of these days I will screenshot and post all that they have said (with some funny commentary or analysis lol) but for now, them sending me hate actually fuels me lol.

The fact I am getting hate, at least to me, means that I made it as an artists. I am in someone else's mind and bothering them with just existing, which is so funny and nice to me lol. So they can keep trying to give me "advice" or whatever they see their asks as, but I will just see it as a win in my book (and a way to make my irl friend happy as they love making fun of people like that lol).

But you are right I shouldn't let this get to me. I do my best to be respectful. Even with asks I don't personally agree with, I try my best to validate that headcanon as best as possible. So like, that anon has some things to learn about respect or learning how to curate their own online experience.

Anyway, I am doing actually really good right now. I hope you are too! Thank you so much for your response! I won't lie, I was hoping for a little bit of validation with my posts before, but wasn't actually expecting any. Thank you again, you took time out of your day to send me a nice message and it makes the world for me. Even if that anon is being rude and disrespectful (even if they don't see it as such) they took time to keep me in their mind which makes me happy.

So you and that anon mean the world to me (you more because you are nice lol). So thanks. I do my best to make a welcoming environment. I know some people will see that as "woke" or stupid or whatever, but that just means it's not for them and they should look for their own space.

Anyway, I am tipsy/drunk and just want to say I appreciate anyone who sent in a nice comment or ask. Or had liked my stuff. Any interaction is a positive in my book honestly, as that means I meant something in someone's life (whether good or bad lol).

So yeah, I am doing good and hope you are too. This is way too rambly for such a small ask, but honestly I wanted to get this out. Thank you to you, and anyone really, who even just liked my stuff (reblogging, or reblogging with tags is also a love from me). It truly means a lot for people to take time out of their day for me, a stranger on the internet. Thank you so much!

[dean-winchester-is-a-warrior]

Thank you for reblogging and sharing that ask regarding being blocked by a blogger who didn't like the serial likes of their stories. That was me btw. Thank you for making me feel validated. I've been such a long time silent reader just bc I'm not a marvel account and I genuinely don't know what to comment on stories. I got excited at the thought of reading all the posts I liked and even tried following them thats when I realised I got blocked, it honestly made me so sad and feel bad, and tbh made me insecure. I didn't know it was such a bad thing? I've been on here reading a lot of stories for years now and never came across someone who would actively block someone liking their stories. Now I'm scared everyone who's friends with that person who writes fics also that I read also will block me too. Idk now I'm a little discouraged to read stories in that fandom that I have found such comfort and excitement over.

I'm SO sorry this took me so long to respond to. I have no excuses. Lol! I saw it when you sent it - meant to respond and then completely forgot till I came to my inbox today. 🤦‍♀️ As my mom used to say, "I'd forget my head if it wasn't screwed on tight."

But I'm glad I could make you feel less guilty (you should feel NO guilt, imo) about "serial liking" someone's fics. It's one of my favourite things when readers do that. I especially love it when I can see them making it through a series, chapter by chapter. Just makes me smile!

I don't really understand why that would bother someone. As I mentioned in my reblog of your original ask, interaction - with comments/reblogs - are always VERY appreciated. But I also get that not everyone has time for that, or feels comfortable commenting. Some people are shy, some people are nervous about reaching out to someone when they don't know what their response might be.

And I don't blame them. I have unfortunately seen a couple of asks answered by a fairly popular blog (who shall remain nameless) that I found to be quite rude. Of course, I may be wrong about the intention behind those seemingly rude answers. You never can tell, because getting emotions and sarcasm across in text only, can be tough. (I'm still lobbying for a universal "sarcasm font". 😁)

Anyway, I hope you will be able to still enjoy fics within that fandom, and that it can continue to give you the comfort it has in the past. We all deserve that.

Thanks for reaching out, and again, sorry it took me so long to get back to you. 🥰

[psychelis-new]

I like paid readings more because for me I like getting the most information possible & I don’t feel bad asking for more clarification but also it’s wanting to support readers that are really good readers & knowing that money can be a way to do that, for me it just feels more energetically balanced I guess

I totally understand why you don’t though <3

I totally understand your pov. And I appreciate it too tbh, so thank you for sharing! It clarifies a lot. :)

Let me only remind you that I always offer the possibility to ask for more infos/clarifications for free while you send your feedback -which I usually take as a payment for those, no matter the lenght- [as mentioned, some just ask for further explanations even without sending a proper feedback, and that's okay as well in the end. I just might answer a little more shortly, depending on the vibe I get more than anything else: basically if you're rude and just ask to know something in a certain way, I am "rude" as well and answer shortly. Plus, I keep feedbacks private when readings are private].

Back to the main point, I honestly just don't feel okay in asking for money knowing there are youngers around here or people who literally make any decision based on readings, and also I don't want to get rich (or get money in general, even if I'm broke) for helping through something that honestly works mostly as for present energies... If I were to ask for paid readings, I'd rather ask to people who can really afford that, whatever they get. And put a limit too anyway (like any good bartender, lol). Again, this is my personal view ofc, and everyone of any age can do as they want with their money, but I think when it comes to me personally people can save them for other things. Maybe use them to enjoy a concert, an album, a few movies online or a book, buy clothes or makeup in my name, Idek, you name it. Energetically speaking, I feel an energetical effort from someone, can balance my energetical effort better: using money makes it easy imo, you don't get tired, you just click a button (ofc you work your arse for those money, but you don't do that directly to pay me, you do that to live, eat, have a home and be able to do what you want... not sure I can explain this well enough but I hope you get what I mean).

As for support, there are other ways to do so that still involve money as buying ko-fis or anything similar. From my personal experience though, it's rare that people want to do that, no matter what they get or how much they want to show you support (which would work as fine through reblogs, follows or sharing feedback around probably? Or being interested in your reader? Idek again, my view :)). So once more, I do appreciate and understand the fact that you rather use money to get your readings without feeling bad and show support, it's just something that, as for now, doesn't belong entirely to my view. And I am glad you understand that too^^ Maybe I'm the one not seeing the full picture here, I don't exclude this at all.

Have a lovely day/night!

[alainascrawls]

if you watched yowapeda can you make one on Kuroda x Teshima? thanks. make it at most a T rate and do it in alpha-omega setting i guess.. oh yeah and make teshima female

Thank you!!

so my first instinct is that this is some kinda meme or troll or smthn but I've also heard horror stories of fic readers acting this entitled so it could be real but I don't understand social interaction at the best of times so I'm just gonna respond to this as if it was a serious request ig

hi! thank you for taking an interest in my work, but I do not take requests. I especially don't take requests for characters I'm only peripherally interested in and au's I'm not at all interested in. also no matter how politely you word it, it's kinda rude to approach someone you don't know and ask them to do a very specific thing for you unprompted (and on anon), and you're unlikely to get what you want this way.

and if this is a troll,,,,,,,, dude. you have better things to do with your time than bother some smalltime fic writer on tumblr dot com with your weird drama bs. I am only barely peripherally in any fandom. I don't talk to people, I barely interact even with the things I like, I literally just look, like, sometimes reblog, and rarely throw a fic or a fanart into the fray & then disappear back into the void. I am like The worst target for this nonsense lol

anyway, I hope you have a pleasant day!

[sansaorgana]

a lot of star wars people i follow or mutuals REALLY dislike the thought of bo katan and din as a possible couple. And most of these people have seen clone wars and rebels and whatever but I'm here not haven't seen any of those yet and i ship them. But honestly I don't think i could hate bo katan tbh. Being very very honest. I think i rarely hate characters in whatever franchise there is. And I'm rooting to see some din and bo action lol. Someone reblogged yesterday a post on my dashboard that said that one of the din stunt doubles said there's some actions with bo katan that they're kinda physical. And people were talking about hoping it's not romantic. Like pls it's star wars 😭😭😭😭 that won't happen. It's probably a fucking fight and I'm ready for it either way. Tha angst of it all....

oh nooo I don't want them to fight! 😩

I haven't seen the animated series either so I'm only judging her character by The Mandalorian series but some people are being ridiculous when it comes to hating her character. Literally yesterday I saw a post where she was called a RACIST for pointing out a fact that Boba Fett is A CLONE. Like yeah, she was rude about it (not that I care about a fictional character's feelings about something that is not even officially a thing in the real world – I mean we don't have clones in real life who would feel offended by that scene; some people need to go outside and touch some grass) but anyway what the hell was racist about it, I have no idea... 🤔

Not gonna lie, I'm just physically attracted to her and I think she's cute with Grogu and I'm a cosy lovey dovey family girl so I'd just like them all to be a family in my fantasy world inside my head although I know it won't happen in canon but it's okay 🥰

[redwinterroses]

Hi, you sent me a weird message earlier about me being a bot? Could you explain a bit further in dms, I'm confused. sorry if this is rude

i sent that message to every account that was following me that didn't have a non-default profile pic and/or a blog title. because there were a lot of you. it's possible I blocked you when I received no response because I assumed my suspicions were correct -- several people replied or at least added a pfp. those that didn't, I mostly deleted or blocked... either way, I actually don't have a way of knowing who you are now lol

Feel free to send me a dm or a message off anon and we can chat but the basic gist is: no one wants bots following them. they artificially inflate follower counts that no one else can see anyway, and in the past there have been issues with bots reblogging posts and adding spam, malware, and p*rn. Unfortunately, a lot of new users don't realize that if they don't personalize their blog with a pfp and a title (and freaking. reblog. content. this is not Twitter or tiktok. don't just like stuff. USE THE SITE, for crying out loud.) they look like bots and I've been around long enough to have lost all patience with bots.

BUT. Because there IS an influx of new users, I'm trying to be lenient and not just assume those are bots. I give blogs 48 hours or so to see my dm and respond in some way -- even if it's just silently adding a pfp and a blog title that says "I'm a real person!" which is actually what a couple of them did lol. Then, if they didn't respond, I generally blocked them. a few I could actually tell were real blogs and I just deleted the message but... follower counts don't matter here, and blocking isn't a statement or a big deal. so if I accidentally block a few real blogs in weeding bots, it's not that bad.

anyway, hope that made any sense I literally just woke up and I'm not processing at full speed yet good morning cruel world.

[stormblessed95]

Hey, storms! Can I call you storms? How are you doing? I hope everything’s going well and that people are not being too awful in their asks. I just recently received my first ever anon ask (jk and jikook anti) - I’m relatively new to being actually active in tumblr - and it was a weird experience. I laughed it off ‘cause it was ridiculous, and logically I knew that, but it did puzzle me that there really are people who wake up and just choose to be awful to others, anonymously or otherwise, online for no reason. I guess it threw me off, even though I know this is how a lot of people are online, cause I’ve never experienced it myself. I don’t really post on here - I just like and reblog stuff that resonates with me or makes me laugh - so I didn’t think I was ever gonna get an ask, let alone a rude one. Anyway, I tip my hat to you and all other blogs on here who deal with shit like that on the daily ‘cause it must be exhausting sometimes.

Si, my actual ask is this: how excited are we about BTS going to the US after being invited to the White House? I’m so unbelievably proud of these incredible humans and everything they’ve achieved. I’m so proud that they’re gonna speak about diversity and inclusion and speak against the rise in anti-asian hate crimes that’s been taking place. This is so important and there are few people more adequate for the job - as the biggest Asian music group in the world and with their insane level of influence, they’re gonna be able to reach so many people. I’m also aware, however, that they must be incredibly nervous and under a lot of pressure - not just because of the context (they’re meeting the president of another country!), but because of the subject matter. It’s something that’s so near and dear to their hearts, something that is so important and relevant and they’re gonna wanna be as sensitive, respectful and gracious about it all as possible. It’s a huge responsibility, which I know they’ll deliver on, but a huge responsibility nonetheless. There’s RM, our dear president, who’s gonna take on most of the responsibility and that’s gonna be tough BUT it’s also gonna be tough for the other members to not feel like they’re leaving him alone to it. They’re all getting more confident/comfortable taking part in public speaking opportunities at these official events, though, so I’m looking forward to seeing how it’ll play out this time around. Also, do you think they might perform? And is JK gonna be dropping from the ceiling again given that he’s, once again, travelling a day earlier than the other 6 members? Or is he maybe cooking stuff up for his mixtape or a collab? Whatever it is, I am beyond thrilled and excited about this. They truly are a wonder. All of them. I am infinitely proud♥️

That’s all from me today, lots of love and take care😊💕

I'm both thrilled, excited and proud of them for getting asked to go to the White House. Their influence is unparalleled and it couldn't have happened to better people. Im sure everyone involved feels very honored. I'm also sure they know what they are doing and getting into but I worry a bit and hope that they are safe while they are here as always! And I hope ARMY doesn't engage with all the usual political bullshit that it sure to come from this unless it's truly out of pocket. And I don't think they would perform, I think we would have been told something about it if they were at this point.

As for why JK is going early and making a pit stop in LA? I have no idea! It could be for any number of reasons ranging from personal to work related to something else. A lot of people are speculating that perhaps it's because he is working on a collab with Charlie Puth, who is an artist that JK likes.

I guess we will see. It could be for whatever he tried to go early for last time but ended up getting shuttled right off to quarantine and possibly didn't get to do, which maybe could have been a Charlie Puth collab. Lol I'm sure we will find out whenever we are meant to find out.

As for your nasty anon, none of the bloggers here were kidding and how gross people can be online when they have an "anon" option to hide behind. I'm so sorry you got one though! Hopefully you don't get too much or any more! I too, am very very proud of BTS! Hope you all have an amazing day!

P.S. I'll just take this moment to let everyone know that I have an insanely busy weekend. If I'm not very active on here, forgive me! Lol but I promise I'm okay! I have 2 asks that I've been meaning to get to from weeks ago that I feel bad having made wait, I'll try to get to them and my newer ones soon! Love yall 💜

Hi, I'm just starting out on posting Sims stuff on tumblr and I wanted to ask about the general etiquette? I guess? On posting Sims pictures. Like, I see people tagging the CC creators for some posts but not all of them. should I always tag the creator or ask if they want to be tagged? do I link to that specific CC or just to their page? what if I don't know the creator? I try and keep track but I have CC i downloaded from like. 2016 I think. and tagging on tumblr has always confused me, I've never really done more than reblogging things, do I just tag the posts with like "Sims 4" or???

sorry for the mass questions, i'm not new to tumblr but i'm new to actively trying to participate in a community on here and i'm kinda overwhelmed lol. which is also why i'm asking on anon bc otherwise I'd never hit send

anyways, i hope you have a good day/night! 🌻

Hi! Welcome to the community 💕

I don't think there are any rules for posting sims pics really, it's not necessary to tag creators if you don't want to, unless it's a lookbook. Other people may want to get the same stuff and it just makes sense to put links to the used items (it's the point of a lookbook) and tag creators (this isn't a must but creators very often reblog lookbooks and edits with their content if they like them so you might want them to see your pics and give you some exposure). If it's like an edit or something else that's not specified as a lookbook, you may put in the info the used CC and tag creators, but only if you feel like it. Again, there are no strict rules or etiquette as you said for your simblr posts, do as you like to and as you are comfortable with.

Linking the used CC can actually save you from many wcif questions if you prefer to avoid them, I guess if you're very shy it may be important for you.

No need to ask a creator if they want to be tagged, most creators are thrilled to see their content being used in other people's games, and yes, you may tag creators even if you don't know them personally. 😅 If you're not sure, check their TOU or their blog, a lot of creators mention how they feel about tagging. Plus, even if a creator is annoyed by your tagging (which is very unlikely, but let's pretend) it's their choice just to ignore your post and that's it.

As for tagging posts, it's important to tag your posts according to their content. First of all it's just simply rude to tag your post like 'the sims 3' if it's not from this game or add 'ts4cc' tag to your post if it's not a download post (unless it's a lookbook with the links to the used cc, then it's fine BUT ONLY THEN). Then, if it's an edit you may add more specific tags like 'the sims 4 edit', 'ts4 edit', or if you post a legacy add some tags related to this theme. You may even develop your system of tags to organize everything within your blog. Like you have a specific tag for your edits only, you can put a link to it somewhere on your blog so others when visit your page could click on it and see your other works.

I'd say worry less about such things, just let your creativity flow and start posting, interact with other people, observe how they do things. Before I started posting anything on my own, this blog was also only for CC tracking, but I was lurking around and looked at how people do things around here.

Hope you'll stick around and simblr experience will be only pleasant for you! Feel free send any other question, I'll be glad to help. Have a nice day\night too 🤗💓

Hi! I don’t mean to be rude or anything, this is just a question :) when do you think you’ll go back to writing? I really miss your writing style too- anyway, I hope you’re doing well!!!

Hey! I have been getting these messages relatively consistently for the past while. It is extremely flattering, and it fills me with SO MUCH JOY that the fanfic I wrote upwards of two and a half years ago (wow!) continues to make people happy! I appreciate all of the messages, comments, reblogs, kudos, and everything else I get on a daily basis. I look at/read every single comment and message I receive, I promise. Last time I checked a few of my posts/stories have thousands of notes???? WHAT??? Fucking crazy, thank you so much! Now, that being said, I need to be honest. It is so fucking hard having active hobbies when you're working and in school. I am finally in the career field that I want to be in for the rest of my life (super crazy! a real career!) AND I'm working on getting my degree. (a physical sciences degree at that!) My priorities lie in getting good grades and progressing in my professional life. On top of this, I am in a very serious relationship with the person I plan on marrying (lol hey @maruadersera), and spending time with them is very important to me and my mental health. All of this paired with a big family emergency (which is FINALLY nearing the end, thank god) I have had zero time for anything but work, school, family, and my partner. I love writing so much, and I miss it more than life itself. I still think of both Narnia and the Marauders every single day. Seriously, you should see my apartment. I am currently sitting under the marauders' map that is taped to the wall. I just know I can't commit to something else right now. I am being pulled in so many different directions that naturally I had to let one go slack. So, the future: I want to keep writing. I know I will again at some point, I just can't give you a set time frame. I really, really, wish I could, it just wouldn't be realistic. I know I have an unfinished series, and I DO PLAN ON FINISHING IT. It's even, like, half-written. I want to completely reformat my blog too, it's still the same as it was when I was like 17.

I'm still always around too, just not 100% active in posting my own material. Lmfao, if ya wanna chat just send me an ask or message me. I get notifications sent right to my phone HAHA. If you want to keep up with me in the meantime, or I guess if you even care that much, message me and I'll give you my Instagram and/or twitter. Just please, please, please don't mention anything about me writing fanfiction there lol I got family and shit on there.

Love you all, and I'm not dead! I'm still here! And still very gay. :p
